Chapter 2458 Future

"The United States' industry and financial resources give the future US Army a huge advantage in most areas. At least in the future, I don't think our troops can surpass the US military in terms of logistics and troop mobility." Major General Carls said after the entourage confirmed that there were no surveillance personnel or equipment around.

It’s not that he believes that the future German industry cannot beat the United States. After all, the future Germany is also a big country with 1.5 million square kilometers of land, a population of more than 120 million, and a colony of tens of millions of square kilometers. It may not be worse than the United States in terms of industry, but there is a problem that the German army needs to maintain a huge organization to deal with Russia. The scale of the front-line army of both sides is not of level. If everyone invests the same production capacity and funds, then the equipment level will definitely be different.

"The Americans have the transportation vehicle rations that we expect now. Their troops have extremely high mobility advantages and are also remarkable in equipment research and development. The infantry equipment level is also first-class in the world. As for heavy artillery, to be honest, I don't think there will be too much quality gap between the world's powerful countries. At this time, quantity and the maneuverability of heavy artillery are very important." Karls said.

"I've been thinking about a question," said General Caripot. "If we fight with the Americans in the future, where will the battlefield be?"

"This... is really unsure, France is impossible. Whether France will become our enemy again or not, at least we can guarantee that we can celebrate our victory again on the Champs Elysees in France before the US Army arrives on a large scale."

"It seems unlikely that Britain will be. If our army really lands on the British Isles on a large scale, then the arrival of the Americans will be the most likely to send a group of prisoners. At such a close distance from the empire, the Americans will not be able to defeat us. Even on the European continent, the American troops have no chance. Even if we let them land, we will still be easily driven into the sea by us." Major General Carls said without hesitation. There is no way, the confidence of winning the allies after the war is too strong. It can be foreseeable that in the future, the empire's national strength and military strength will be essentially improved!

"So, now the question is. If we go to war with the United States, Britain and Russia at the same time in the future, where will the Americans' preset battlefield be?" Kariput said with interest. "This battlefield cannot be far away from Europe, because if it is too far, we don't have to worry at all, nor will we send military forces. At the same time, we cannot be too close to us. Otherwise, the US military will be seeking death. Moreover, this battlefield must have a huge influence on the distance between Europe, so that we have to divide our troops to deal with it."

"So, I think if we had a fight with the US Army, it would be very likely to be in the desert of North Africa, because it is far from Germany and Austria, and our military delivery may be politically restricted, and our army will be slow to deploy. Secondly, North Africa will have a profound impact on the situation of war, because if Americans gain a firm foothold here, their land-based aviation power will seriously threaten our routes in the Mediterranean, and you know, the Mediterranean is our lifeline, and a considerable portion of the supplies we obtain from Africa and the Middle East must enter the Austro-Hungarian Empire through the Mediterranean, and then enter Germany." General Kariput said.

"North Africa? But whether it is northwestern Africa or Algeria, it is a colony of France or Spain. Are you saying that if war begins in the future, the Americans may attack neutral countries?" Major General Karls said in surprise.

"It is entirely possible, in fact, before the war, we were worried that Belgium would not allow our army to fully develop, and we had the intention to pass through the Netherlands. However, due to many political and economic reasons, we gave up and ensured the neutrality of the Netherlands." General Kariput said.

"But the Imperial Navy should be able to deal with the Americans, right? How could we let the Americans travel across the ocean to Europe?" Major General Carls was still a little unacceptable.

"This issue is hard to say, or it depends largely on France's attitude at that time. If France cooperated with us, we could naturally deploy our fleet on the west coast of France and the Mediterranean region. Without the support of the French, our Mediterranean fleet could only rely on the ports of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Of course, this is not the most troublesome. Our biggest trouble is because of the existence of Britain. The German and Austrian fleets were split. Every time our fleet mobilization was transferred, we would definitely be obstructed by the British navy along the way. Before we completely deal with the British fleet and land-based aviation, our fleet mobilization was not so smooth." General Caripot said.

If the problem on the Eastern Front in the future is to solve Russia, then the ultimate problem on the Western Front is to solve Britain with the help of the United States. The victory of World War I did not allow Germany to completely solve the European problem, because in Western Europe, Britain was still stuck on the road for the German high seas fleet to enter and exit the Atlantic Ocean freely. Although Germany gained control of the Shetland Islands and Iceland, in the future, once some American fleets and a large number of air force enter the British mainland, this will still be serious. It is very inconvenient for the fleet to enter and exit the Atlantic Ocean.

The German fleet could not have all the main force in the Mediterranean, and wartime fleets would still happen! Therefore, in Caripot's view, the core of the war in Western Europe in the future is Britain. If Britain surrenders, then the Americans can only admit defeat. After all, without the British pedal, no matter how powerful the United States is, it would not be able to work hard. Before Britain fell, it was possible for the Americans to do something in North Africa because of the mobilization of the Allied fleets. After all, if Germany had not yet handled the Spanish and French governments at that time, then it would be outside the combat range of the German aviation force, and the only thing they could rely on was the German-Austrian Mediterranean Fleet. At this time, the squadron had to face half of the American fleet.

As for the cost and security issues that the Americans want to deploy in this way? This is also impossible for the United States. The decisive battle on the British local side depends on the navy and air force, and the army is just a so-called "sorry". Unless the US Army does not launch a large-scale battle against Germany, it can only do something in North Africa. The Americans must do it at all costs, because if Russia simply faces the main force of the German and Austrian army, then it is only a matter of time before the Russians can fight ggs!
