Jagged Germany

   "Your Excellency, the 2nd Aircraft Carrier Squadron is over. All four aircraft carriers were sunk, as were all heavy cruisers and light cruisers. Several destroyers were also lost!" Major General Takahashi Imo reported.

  Admiral Yamamoto Fifty-six's face was as gloomy as water. He never thought that the United Fleet would pay such a big loss in this battle. After they successfully attacked the Mariana Islands, he once thought that they would win this naval battle. However, the final result gave him a slap in the face, making him realize the reality. That is, compared with the powerful German navy, the navy of the island country is still too weak!

"Four aircraft carriers were sunk, nine capital ships were sunk, and two were severely damaged. At the same time, there were also a large number of heavy cruisers, light cruisers, and destroyers sunk! The combined fleet lost more than half of its combat power in this battle!" General Yamamoto fifty-six sighed.

   "The carrier-based aircraft and pilots are almost lost!" Lieutenant General Nagumo Chuichi added in his heart.

  They all know that the United Fleet has undoubtedly suffered a fatal blow this time. In the next battle, it will be even more difficult to defeat the German navy. If they fail, they will be completely defeated in this naval battle.

  At the same time, they also know that the entire island country pins its hopes on them, hoping that they can defeat the German navy in the war and open the way for the army to go south. However, in the end it was such a result. The navy cannot gain control of the sea, does the army dare to go south? The German navy can send the army going south to the sea to feed the fish at any time. Under such circumstances, it has become an unattainable dream for the army of the island country to go south to capture Nanyang and Australia.

  If Southeast Asia and Australia cannot be occupied, the island countries will not have the resources to maintain the war. Although, the Americans are still providing large amounts of resources to the island countries. However, all fools know that once the United States officially enters the war, the consumption of war materials will increase explosively. At that time, Americans will definitely give priority to meeting their own needs. It will become very difficult for island countries to obtain resources. Therefore, going south to win Nanyang and Australia has become something that island countries must do. Otherwise, the island country will have nothing to do in this war. Even after Germany frees up, the island country can be destroyed at any time.

   "Report this news to the country! The war has become like this. It is definitely impossible to hide it." General Yamamoto Fifty-Six said. Although he knew what impact the news of the combined fleet's failure would have when it was sent back home. But he has no choice, he can't really keep it a secret.

   "Hi, Your Excellency Commander!" Major General Takahashi Iwang nodded.

   "In addition, prepare a seaplane, and I will rush back to China immediately." General Yamamoto Fifty-Six said.

  As one of the three chiefs of the island nation's navy, the island nation's navy has suffered such a heavy loss. He must rush back to China as soon as possible to discuss with the Minister of the Sea, Mitsumasa Minai, and the Minister of the Navy, Admiral Fushimi Miyahiro.

   "Hi, Your Excellency, Commander, I will make arrangements immediately." Major General Takahashi Iwang said.

"Nagumo-kun, after I leave, you will be in charge of the fleet. You must take all the remaining battleships back to the mainland safely. The combined fleet that has suffered heavy losses can no longer suffer losses." Yamamoto Fifty-Six said the general.

   "Hey, Your Excellency, Commander, I will definitely bring the fleet back!" Lieutenant Admiral Nagumo Chuichi replied.

   Half an hour later, General Yamamoto Fifty-Six left the aircraft carrier 'Ibuki' in a seaplane and returned to the island country ahead of schedule.

   It's just that the island country at this moment has also become turbulent because of the news of the combined fleet's fiasco.

  The Ministry of the Navy of the island country, the Minister of the Navy, Mitsumasa Minai, and the Minister of Naval Command, Admiral Fushimi Gong Hiroshi, are waiting for the news of the combined fleet. They have been notified by the United Fleet before that from the night of February 3 to the morning of February 4, it will be a decisive battle between the United Fleet and the German Navy. They are also looking forward to this decisive battle, looking forward to a brilliant victory for the combined fleet.

"His Excellency, I believe Yamamoto-kun will be able to lead the joint fleet to defeat the Germans this time. Didn't they attack the German bases in the Mariana Islands before, and they did a very good job?" General Fushimi Gong Hiroshi With a smile on his face, he is obviously very confident in the United Fleet.

  Admiral Minai Mitsumasa nodded, he also hoped that the United Fleet could win.

"If Yamamoto-kun and the others can win, then the imperial navy will be able to dominate the entire Pacific Ocean. At that time, the army will dispatch a large number of troops to attack Nanyang and Australia. The Germans only have hundreds of thousands of people in Nanyang and Australia. There are fewer colonial troops, but it must not be our opponent's. The final victory must be ours!" General Minai Mitsumasa also said.

"As long as the empire can occupy Southeast Asia and Australia, the empire's take-off will be just around the corner. If India can be brought down, the empire will become the world's top power." The eyes of General Fushimi Gong Hiroshi shone with excitement , as if the island country has really become the world's top power.

  The upper echelons of the island nation's navies seem to have great confidence in the combined fleet. It's just that I really don't know where their confidence comes from. Do they really think that the strength of the German navy is so vulnerable?

   "Your Excellency, a telegram from the Combined Fleet!" A staff officer walked in, bowed and handed the telegram to General Minai Mitsumasa.

  General Mitsumasa Yonei immediately opened the telegram and started to read it. General Fushimi Miyahiro Kyoko also ignored the etiquette and hurriedly brought his head closer.

  However, the content of the telegram made the faces of the two of them change drastically, and even their minds went blank.

   "Baga! How could this happen? How could we lose this naval battle?" General Fushimi Gong Hiroshi murmured, as if he couldn't believe it all.

  Minai Mitsumasa's complexion also turned pale. The failure of the Combined Fleet to defeat the German Navy as expected would put the island nation's calculations in serious question for years. This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the island country.

   "The navy didn't defeat the Germans, and didn't gain control of the sea. How could the army be sent to Southeast Asia and Australia? How can this battle continue?" General Minai Mitsumasa said with a painful face.

   Obviously, the result of this naval battle is unacceptable to the islanders.
