#1670 on the Midway Island Again (Plus 5)
Cyric did not want to support the island countries excessively, such as providing the island countries with real offensive aircraft carriers, so that the island countries could turn the world upside down with the United States in the Pacific Ocean, but Cyric also did not want the island countries to be defeated by the United States so soon.
The existence of island countries is to contain the United States, forcing the United States to fight on two fronts, and to contain part of the United States' naval power in the process of its own cross-sea landing.
Now, Cyric thought of the island country again. After the island country occupied Midway, the need for an offensive aircraft carrier was not particularly urgent. After all, with Midway as the base, the air force of the island country could radiate to the surrounding and the entire island. In the Pacific Ocean, Midway Island, as an unsinkable aircraft carrier, can allow island countries to hold the western part of the Pacific Ocean, so that island countries have the capital to continue to exist.
Now that the island nation has its own fighter jets, it will be able to defend Midway.
However, until now, the island country really does not have much ability to repay Germany's debt.
"The significance of Australia lies in the iron ore on it. The conditions we negotiated at the beginning were also mining rights. Now, as long as we advance to the Ural Mountains, there are as many excellent iron ore as we want. Therefore, Australia's iron ore Shi, it's not very important to us anymore." Cyric said: "If the island countries can't take Australia, let them continue to use Southeast Asian rubber to pay off their debts."
In the history of World War II, the resources in short supply in Germany included rubber. Because of the lack of excellent natural rubber, they were forced to use recycled rubber. For example, the tires of ME262 often exploded when landing, which is the ghost of recycled rubber. .
Now, there is no shortage of Germany. Germany has reached the Middle East. Through the Suez Canal, the waterway to Asia is smooth. Therefore, it is completely possible to transport rubber from Southeast Asia. Now, the time is also very suitable.
Natural rubber has been harvested in small quantities since February, and in August, it will reach a peak period. Just after negotiating an agreement with the island country, it will usher in the peak period of natural rubber harvesting.
At the same time, with the expansion of the empire's control area, you should also find a suitable area in the control area to plant rubber trees. As a strategic resource, if it is always imported, it is still worrying!
Cyric thought deeply.
On the other side of the world, the Pacific Ocean, Midway, one of the three islands, Thunder Island.
Here, there was originally Henderson Field established by the U.S. Navy, a flight runway that runs through almost the entire island, enough to take off and land strategic bombers.
After a brutal battle, the island nation finally occupied this place, and at the same time, the entire airport was renovated and served again for the island nation.
At this time, on the runway of the airport, a fighter plane with a fully enclosed cockpit was preparing to take off.
This kind of aircraft seems to be bigger than the Zero War. At this time, as the front three-blade propeller starts to rotate, the side of the nose, the two rows of horizontal exhaust pipes, began to emit black smoke. , and then came a rumbling sound.
With the roar, the pilot operated the fighter, rolled, and took off, almost in one go.
"Commander, the performance of our imported fighter jet is quite good, and everyone who has flown it will be full of praise for its performance." At this time, on one side of the runway, a group of people were watching the takeoff of the aircraft.
They are not tall, and the commander in the middle is now the most prestigious Pheasant Fifty-six in the island country.
Now, the strength of the Imperial Navy has been greatly lost. With the sinking of the main battleship, they have no plans to attack for the time being. They only need to defend the existing territory and at the same time, force the United States to negotiate. This is their main goal.
Yes, it's peace talks.
The islanders are arrogant, but they are definitely not arrogant enough to think that they can conquer the United States by themselves.
So, what are the strategic goals of the island nation? It is to let the Americans recognize the current occupied area of the island country. The island country has gone to great lengths and lost so many equipment and soldiers. The territory that has been captured cannot be returned.
And now, it just happened to be an absolute good opportunity. Germany is preparing to launch an attack on the United States, and the United States can still fight on two fronts under this huge pressure?
As long as the United States and the island country sign a peace negotiation agreement and recognize the territory currently occupied by the island country, the island country will be at ease, and can watch Germany and the United States fight to the death, while their own side continues to develop, and when their war is over, the island country's strength will be restored again.
This is the plan of Pheasant Fifty-six, the overall plan of the entire island country, which is to negotiate after eating enough territory.
As for whether it will make Germany feel betrayed, that is another matter. Anyway, Germany did not fully support the island country.
Thinking of this, Pheasant Fifty-Six continued to look at the plane, and his mind was imaginative.
In island countries, the navy and army compete for resources with each other very seriously. With the sinking of island countries' aircraft carriers one by one, building new aircraft carriers will cost a lot of money.
Therefore, the pheasant fifty-six offended the army, and it was considered that the 100 BF109s were all given to the navy. There are only 80 deployed here. They rely on these aircrafts to protect this place. territory.
However, Pheasant Fifty-six also made a commitment. Another treasure brought back from Germany, the high-horsepower aero-engine technology, was handed over to the aviation department of the empire, and a new fighter was developed around this engine. First equip the army.
At least a few months!
With the arrival of these German aircraft, Pheasant Fifty-Six felt a little more relaxed in his heart. Today, he came to Midway Island from the naval base. This is the territory he led the fleet and captured. Now, he stepped on The ground beneath my feet, smelling the sea breeze in the air, was very satisfying.
On nearby Spit Island, a field mobile radar imported from Germany was operating, monitoring the sky, and the radar soldiers carefully watched the signals on the screen.
A few days ago, the fixed radar position here was destroyed again. Thanks to this imported motor radar vehicle, the eyes of the sky were not lost.
Suddenly, a group of bright spots appeared on the radar screen, and in an instant, he became nervous.
"Attention, air strikes, there are a large number of fighter planes flying from the east, with a height of 10,000!"
After occupying Midway Island, they were mentally prepared. This situation has occurred several times before, but this time is the most unusual. The number of planes dispatched by the other party is too large.
In the sky, Saburo Okamoto was driving this BF109, which was originally intended to be a flight demonstration on the ground, to show the excellent performance of this aircraft to senior officials such as Pheasant Fifty-six. But now, when he heard the call on the radio, he immediately answered loudly: "Yes, intercept it immediately!"
