The Third Reich: The Return of the King

Chapter 291

See all

Originally, all countries thought that it was just a coincidence that Hans and the fleet of the sun never sets appeared in the Windmill Kingdom at the same time. After all, the Windmill Kingdom was a neighbor of Hans and had a good relationship with Hans during World War I. Therefore, it was normal to send warships to visit such a friendly country!

However, when the fleet of the sun never sets left the Windmill Kingdom and went to visit Belgium and Gaul, Hans’ two warships followed closely and arrived at these two places with the navy of the sun never sets!

Now, even a fool can see the truth!

“Haha, the Han people are so wicked!”

“Yes, they specially dispatched a fleet to follow the British Empire’s patrol fleet. Wherever the British Empire went, they followed. As a result, the British Empire’s attempt to show its strength was completely destroyed by them!”

“Although the number of their warships is not as many as that of the British Empire, the performance of their warships is obviously much stronger than those of the British Empire’s new warships. Even the British Empire’s only battlecruiser, the Hood, is no match for Hans’ battleships. Moreover, the warships of the two countries arrived at the port almost at the same time, so the people of the visited countries have something to compare with!”

“This comparison brings up a problem. Everyone can easily find that the British Navy is not as powerful as they advertise. Although they have a large number of ships, the quality of their battleships is much worse. On the contrary, the number of the British Fleet highlights the quality of Hans, and countries have begun to discuss which is more important, quality or quantity!”

“Yes, the big news created by the British Empire was taken away by the Hans. The Hans did not deploy many warships, but gained the same or even higher popularity as the 12 battleships of the British Empire. This method of taking advantage of the popularity is really clever!”

“Haha, this is a really bad move, I don’t know who came up with it!!”

In North America, after hearing about the weird things happening in Europe, the British navy found it a little funny. On the one hand, they laughed at the British for stealing chickens but losing rice, and on the other hand, they admired the imagination and methods of the Hans. They even began to wonder about the identity of the person who made this decision in Hans.

“Can our Eagle Sauce Navy deal with Hans’s battleships?”

After seeing the joke, the Eagle Sauce Navy also had a question. Hans’ Bismarck-class battleships are the best in the world. If they have to deal with Hans’ navy in the future, can they defeat Hans?

“If we only rely on the current battleships, it may not be enough, but we have three Colorado-class battleships. The main guns of these battleships are the same as Hans’ Bismarck-class, but the tonnage is slightly smaller. However, we have three Colorados and Hans only has two Bismarcks. With the help of other battleships in the Atlantic Fleet, we are confident that we can win if we really fight!”

After all, the Eagle Sauce Navy is large and powerful. If they fight alone, they may not be Hans’ opponent, but they do not advocate fighting alone. Since they have the advantage in numbers, they naturally have to play to this advantage.

“However, we are threatened by the Foot Basin Navy in the Pacific. The main gun caliber of the Foot Basin Navy’s two battleships, Nagato and Mutsu, is also 406 mm, and there are even rumors that the performance of these two battleships is not inferior to our Colorado-class battleships. To ensure the advantage of the Pacific Fleet, we must at least place two Colorado-class battleships in the Pacific!”

“If we put two of the three battleships in the Pacific, what about the Atlantic? Don’t forget, there is an even more powerful British Empire on this side of the Atlantic. I think we should regard the British Empire as our country’s biggest enemy!”

There was a big debate within the Eagle Sauce military on how to distribute the existing naval forces.

Some people believed that the Pacific Ocean was more important, so they had to ensure the strength of the Pacific Fleet to suppress the Far East.

The speed of the British Empire’s military expansion in recent years has been quite fast.

In addition, the British Empire is an island country, so their navy is a priority for development.

In this case, the battleships of the British Empire Navy pose a great threat to the Eagle Sauce’s Pacific Fleet.

If the Eagle Sauce does not find a way to strengthen the strength of its Pacific Fleet, I am afraid they will not be able to suppress the British Empire!

“There is no need to panic over at the Foot Basin for the time being. I think the next strategic focus of the Foot Basin should be to invade the Celestial Empire. They will not attack us for the time being, so we only need to pay close attention to the situation in the Far East and provide some support to the Celestial Empire. If they want to hold back the Foot Basin, we can avoid being attacked by the Foot Basin!”

“The situation on the Atlantic side is much more complicated. Compared with the western region, our main core areas are along the eastern coastline. Whether it is Gotham City, the capital, or the southern states, these places are vulnerable to the threat of enemy navies in the Atlantic, so I think the Atlantic Fleet is more important than the Pacific Fleet!”The

Navy Commander saw that everyone was arguing, so he had to stand up and speak.

The major generals of the Eagle Sauce Navy nodded when they heard the words of the Navy Commander, which was regarded as an approval of the other party’s judgment.

The Eagle Sauce started out in the thirteen continents on the eastern coastline.

Although the subsequent expansion annexed large tracts of land in the west, due to the existence of the Rocky Mountains, there are almost no people in the large tracts of land in the west and the central region.

Many people entered California during the gold rush in the west, but the population of several western states is currently less than 20 million, less than 20% of the total population, and more than 70% of the population is distributed in the east.

area, so the eastern region is obviously much more important than the western region!

The Eagles will never forget how they were threatened by the sea, so they attach great importance to coastal defense, and the best defense is offense. Instead of spending huge amounts of money on land to build a large number of artillery positions and prepare a large number of troops, it is better to build a strong navy and fight the enemy in the ocean to keep the enemy out of their own country!

Therefore, the existence of the Atlantic Fleet is both a shield for the Eagles and a sword in their hands. In the future, when they become strong, they can also use this sword to expand their territory and invade other countries!

“Before the expiration of the naval treaty, our navy may not be able to build powerful battleships like Hans’ Bismarck-class battleships. In addition, we have to suppress the foot basin people in the Pacific region. In this case, we should not make too many enemies. Therefore, I suggest that we can try to get closer to Hans and turn this potential enemy into our friend. In this way, we can focus more on dealing with our biggest enemy-the British Royal Navy!” The Navy

Commander can become the Navy Commander, and he is really good at it.

In a few words, he determined the next work policy of the Eagle Sauce Navy, and this policy is: to win over Hans and suppress the British Royal Navy.

Hans is the maritime neighbor of the British Royal Navy. The distance between the two countries is very close. When Hans’ navy becomes stronger, the threat felt by the British Royal Navy must be the greatest. In this case, a large number of British Royal Navy troops will be involved in dealing with the threat of Hans, and they cannot run to the doorstep of the British Royal Navy to threaten them!

And the pressure on the British Royal Navy in the Atlantic region is reduced, so more troops can be invested in the Pacific region to suppress the foot basin!

Before the expiration of the 1934 Naval Treaty, even though the Eagle Sauce had the world’s number one national strength, it was unable to exert its power because of the tight ring, so they needed to rely on Hans’s power to help themselves reduce the burden!

Being as close to Hans as possible can not only reduce Hans’s threat, but also put pressure on the British Empire together. In this way, they can protect the security and stability of their Atlantic coastal areas and suppress the rapidly expanding Foot Basin people in the Pacific!

This strategy saves money, effort and worry, and can also gain an ally on the European continent, it is simply killing two birds with one stone! _Feilu reminds you: Three things to do when reading-
