Iron Germany

The decisive battle between the German Navy and the U.S. Navy in the waters near the Azores not only concerns the two countries of Germany and the United States, but also attracts the attention of countries all over the world. Especially the countries that have participated in this war, such as the protectorate and vassal state of Germany, as well as the allies of the United States, are very concerned about this naval battle. They even took the result of this naval battle as an important basis for them to adopt various strategies in the future.

The German Navy defeated the U.S. Navy and won the naval battle, which not only enabled the German Navy to gain command of the sea in the Atlantic Ocean, but also further consolidated the German Navy's dominance. They were also worried before that if the German navy lost, Europe would be threatened by the U.S. navy, and their safety would not be guaranteed. Even, Germany may lose this war. Now, the German Navy has won, allowing them to completely relieve their worries.

Looking back at the allies of the United States, the mood is not so happy. They all hope that the United States can win this naval battle. After all, the United States is their backer, and they have great confidence in the strong military strength of the United States. If the U.S. Navy can win, this will have a profound impact on the overall battle situation. It even ensured the victory of the anti-German alliance in the war. But now, the U.S. Navy has failed, which undoubtedly made them feel the strength of the German Navy, and at the same time, they are even more worried about the upcoming battle.

Island country, Tokyo, Prime Minister's Office. Prime Minister Minai Mitsumasa convened a group of cabinet officials to discuss the impact of this naval battle on the island parliament. However, the atmosphere in the conference room was somewhat dignified. Obviously, everyone was frightened by the strength of the Germans.

Germany is very strong, the most powerful country in the world. This point is recognized by the island countries and is very clear. Even, they have already experienced this in the battle in Nanyang. However, they also have a glimmer of hope, hoping that after the United States enters the war, it can defeat Germany in one fell swoop and establish the victory of the anti-German alliance. But the current result gave them a slap in the face and made them realize the reality.

"Your Excellency, the strength of the U.S. Navy and the German Navy on the Azores Islands, and the fierceness of the battle are indeed breathtaking." Admiral Yoshida Zengo, Minister of the Navy, sighed.

In this naval battle, the U.S. Navy invested 24 aircraft carriers and 15 capital ships. The German Navy invested 20 aircraft carriers and 23 capital ships. The scale is indeed unprecedented. At least, the island country army definitely does not have such a powerful force to invest in naval battles.

But at the same time, the extent of the loss of the US Navy also shocked them very much. In this battle, the U.S. Navy lost a full 15 aircraft carriers and 9 capital ships, as well as a large number of cruisers and destroyers. This also shocked the island navy. At the same time, it also made them feel a little desperate.

The island navy has already suffered heavy losses in the previous battle with the German navy. Even the capital ships and aircraft carriers they serve are almost damaged. But in order to be able to make a difference in Southeast Asia and Australia, the island countries are gritting their teeth to support the development of the navy, hoping that they can restore their strength as soon as possible, and defeat the German navy in one fell swoop in future naval battles.

But now it seems that they imagined everything too simple. The German Navy defeated the U.S. Navy in the Atlantic Ocean and gained command of the sea in the Atlantic Ocean. This also means that as long as the German navy wants to, it can mobilize more sea power to the Pacific Ocean and defeat the island navy in one fell swoop. This also means that the pressure they face will be greater.

"The U.S. Navy has lost such a powerful force, can we still defeat the German Navy?" Foreign Minister Hachiro Arita asked.

Immediately, General Yoshida Zengo didn't know how to answer. Obviously, this is a very heavy topic.

With the strength of the island nation's navy, it is indeed impossible to defeat the German navy. However, now the island country and Germany have gone to war, and they have already fought in Nanyang.

Although both the navy and the army of the island nation paid a heavy price in the war, they did not gain nothing at all. At least, they have occupied the entire Dutch Indonesia including Kalimantan.

After the German 23rd Army withdrew from Kalimantan, the Island Army occupied the island. And took advantage of the trend to attack other islands in Dutch Indonesia. The army of Dutch Indonesia had no way to fight against the powerful German army, so that all the islands fell into the hands of the island army.

Island countries also began to plunder wealth and various resources on these islands in Dutch Indonesia. In particular, the beginning of oil extraction from Bali Baban and other places, as well as the large amount of rubber obtained, are resources that the island country urgently needs. Island countries will not give up these resources, which is a guarantee for their further development.

"No matter how powerful the German navy is, we have no choice. Therefore, we can only further develop our strength and prepare for defeating the German navy!" Admiral Yoshida Zengo said.

"The Navy's shipbuilding speed must be further accelerated. Make sure to defeat the German Navy's power in the Pacific Ocean in one fell swoop before the German Navy sends additional reinforcements to the Pacific Ocean. Only in this way can we occupy an advantageous position and have a greater turnaround Space." Admiral Yoshida Zengo continued.

"Well, the major shipyards must cooperate with the navy. From now on, we will be in three shifts! The rise and fall of the empire is in this battle. We must do our best!" Prime Minister Minai Mitsumasa said.

"Hi, Your Excellency the Prime Minister." Everyone replied.

"In addition, the army also needs to launch operations. We will use Dutch Indonesia as a springboard to attack the Indochina Peninsula and Australia. Before the Germans massively increase their troops in Southeast Asia, we will capture more territory and obtain more resources. In this case, we will Only then will it become stronger and have enough strength to confront Germany." Prime Minister Mitsumasa Minai said.

"Hi, Your Excellency the Prime Minister." Army Minister Hata Shunroku replied with a dark face.

Without the support of the navy, if you want to send troops to the Indochina Peninsula and Australia, is that no different from sending them to death? However, General Minai Mitsumasa has already made this request. Besides agreeing, does the navy have other options? Obviously, because the victory of the German navy in the Atlantic Ocean has stimulated the nerves of the high-level island countries, they must do their best to avoid defeat.
