Chapter 1445 Conditions Are Very Attractive

Since this time, Cyric has been commanding the war on the Eastern Front, and he is not particularly concerned about the Far East.

Recently, in the Far East, the progress of the island countries, on the surface, is still good.

They defeated their opponents in the Battle of the Coral Sea, and although they themselves suffered losses, they killed two American aircraft carriers.

But after that, they didn't have a decent record, and their planned sneak attack on Midway never took place.

The reason is indescribable, the contradiction between the navy and the army.

The Navy wants to continue attacking Midway and completely destroy the U.S. Pacific Fleet. Once the American war machine is in motion, it will be terrible. The American Navy has suffered huge losses at Pearl Harbor, but the American shipyards continue to build rapidly. Warships, soon rearmed the Pacific Fleet.

They were going to continue bombing, and Midway was their inevitable target.

However, the Army disagreed. The Army wanted to continue its progress south. Southeast Asia and Australia were all targets the Army could not wait to occupy quickly.

The two sides were arguing endlessly. Under such circumstances, a compromise solution appeared. The navy allocated a part of its forces to carry out the strategy of advancing south, and conquered Southeast Asia and Australia.

In this way, the remaining ships of the Navy will not be enough.

(Historically, the failure of the naval battle of Midway also had this reason, unable to do everything possible, and was divided by the southward plan.)

And now, the people coming from the island country are obviously related to this aspect.

"Honey, keep basking in the sun here." Ciri said, clasping her wife's hand, and kissing her gently on the cheek.

Hannah showed a knowing smile, and her eyes were full of happiness. Although she was already an old husband and wife, she was still like her first love. This feeling is really beautiful.

Cyric left the terrace and came to the conference room. As soon as he entered the door, several islanders stood up and greeted him.

"Führer Cyric, it's nice to see you, please take care of me." The person who spoke was Cyric who had met several times before, Pheasant Fifty-six.

(Let's be consistent, for that reason, to avoid it.)

As the person in charge of the island nation's navy, Pheasant Fifty-six was very beautiful during this period. After he won the Battle of Pearl Harbor, he was already the most famous general in the island nation, but now, his face is It was full of strange expressions, excitement, anticipation, and unease. At this time, his mood was written on his face.

"Sit down, what can we help you with?" Cyric said.

Now, Germany has occupied the whole of Europe and is also engaged in the process of European integration. The Axis powers have been greatly expanded and become the European Union. While doing all this, Cyric is secretly rejecting the island nations. of.

It can be said that the island countries can get some benefits from Germany, but the two sides are not allies, which seems to imply something. Of course, today's islanders will not consider those.

Island countries only have tacticians, not strategists at all.

A few people sat down. Pheasant Fifty-Six knew Cyric's character, so he didn't have too many greetings. After thanking Germany for its help to the island country and letting the island country win the naval battle, he immediately cut to the chase.

"Just a few months ago, after we bombed Pearl Harbor, the Americans actually used carrier-borne bombers to bomb our Tokyo. Although it didn't cause much damage, it was a huge shock to us. ' said Pheasant Fifty-Six.

"So, if we want to avoid this situation, we need to have a suitable foothold in the Pacific Ocean. This time, we not only need to meet the mission target of bombing the US fleet, but also landing operations, we have to step on the Midway, make it one of our sea bases, and from there, we can radiate to the entire Pacific Ocean."

Compared with history, the goal of the island nation's navy is more aggressive. They want to get a naval base on Midway!

In this way, the island nation's navy can cruise the Pacific, block any U.S. warships trying to sail in the Pacific, and even fly bombers from Midway to easily bomb the West Coast of the United States and blow up those shipyards.

The island nation's navy can't wait.

Midway Island is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, 2,100 kilometers northwest of Honolulu. It belongs to the Polynesian Islands. It is an unorganized territory of the United States. It is occupied by the United States and radiated to the entire Pacific Ocean. This is the lofty ideal of the island nation's navy.

If the island nation's navy can occupy this place, it will no longer have to fear the threat of the American fleet and conquer Southeast Asia with confidence.

"So, we want to lease your landing ship." Pheasant Fifty-Six stated the goal of his visit this time: "We lack large ocean-going landing ships, and you now have a large number of landing ships. Before your landing in the United States, can you lease the landing ship to us?"

A few years ago, in order to achieve the purpose of landing in the UK across the sea, Germany built a batch of 4,000-ton tank landing ships, some of which were built in Spain. These tank landing ships did play a role in the battle that year. effect.

After that, Germany did not need these landing ships to fight for the time being. Germany made a false shot, and when everyone thought that Germany was going to attack the United States, it suddenly ran to fight the Soviet Union.

Before the Soviet Union was defeated, Germany didn't need landing ships, so, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds to rent German landing ships?

Indeed, for the island nation, it's the best of both worlds, but what's in it for Germany? Self-denial is not the mindset of a leader.

Hearing Pheasant Fifty-Six's words, Cyric immediately frowned, of course not! What if these landing ships suffered losses in the course of the battle?

Empty Gloves White Wolf, what if they don't repay the equipment they borrowed?

In the past, to help them fight Pearl Harbor, Germany just sent a commander to assist in the command. Now, the islanders actually want to borrow equipment?

Seeing Cyric's expression, the few islanders present knew that it was not good. If they could not come up with enough benefits in exchange, the Germans would not agree.

Fortunately, they have trump cards.

If Germany wants to help, of course, they must have enough sincerity. Pheasant fifty-six continued: "We are willing to find a suitable port among the four northern islands in northern Hokkaido and lease it to you as your submarine base."

As soon as these words came out, all the people present were stunned. Even Cyric felt a tumult in his mind. The islanders, who had always wanted to expand their territory, could actually give up their sovereignty and take a port. Lend it to yourself?

And, it just happened to be what he wanted.
