Americans helped Germany because Germany could help the United States solve problems that were difficult to solve in the Pacific. This is trust in German military power. But if the Americans were at a loss and the Germans were standing by, then this premise would not exist. Even if it was a mercenary who used money to fight, you still needed to show off the war, right? At the beginning, Su Xiong was worried that the Americans would force themselves to recklessly, and then the German navy would not have the chance to show it. But now it seems that this worry is gone.

"That's also necessary for Americans to give us the right to participate in the formulation of core plans." Redell said with his hands spreading out. "And this takes time and requires Americans to feel pain enough."

"However, what I was most worried about before was that the possibility of the Americans taking over New Ireland directly was very small. So what we need to consider now is how we can recover the strategic situation if the offensive was set in the early stage." Su Xiong decisively began another topic.

"The battle for islands is ultimately a matter of maritime power. Increasing the number of fleets, especially aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft, can completely solve the problem. With the family background of the navies of the United States and Germany, it is no problem to waste the Japanese here." Raidel said with a smile.

"Old guy, let's talk about it more realistically. You know that the aid limit for Germany to the US Navy will not be changed easily. And all we need is a limited victory, not to directly kill the Japanese." Su Xiong frowned and said.

"Politics is sometimes so troublesome," Raidel said half-seriously and half-jokingly. "You should have thoughts compared to you, right? After all, you are the fleet commander, and I am just the chief of staff."

"I think some ideas, but at the same time it needs to be refined." Su Xiong said. "I think the Americans have made too conservative tactics. They try their best to reduce losses, but due to the battlefield situation and tactics, their plans always have some loopholes, which in turn creates disadvantages at the battle level. And you and I know that when the battle situation is at a disadvantage, simply passive defense is useless. This is just a delay in the deterioration. The most important thing is that we must take the initiative to attack and change the battlefield situation."

The so-called situation is not good, or it is like a famous RTS game. If the battlefield cannot defeat the hero in seconds, this is one of the ways to change the situation. The essence is to change the situation. Su Xiong understands this very well. Before coming, Su Xiong considered how the German navy would make a splash, exert its subjective initiative, turn the situation around in one fell swoop, and then while squeezing more benefits from the Americans, it would leave a huge psychological shadow on the United States and Japan. Well, that's it!

"That's how I think." Su Xiong came to the huge sea chart a few steps and said: "My original plan was to implement the battle after two months. Because at this time, both sides must have fought several times. Even if the Japanese Navy's main battleships did not suffer any complete losses, they must have temporarily withdrawn from the battle sequence due to combat injuries or maintenance issues. Various auxiliary battleships will also lose a lot. The main fleets of both sides will be very tired, and this is the time for us to perform."

"But our fleet will be very tired," said Raidel. "Even if we haven't experienced the war, after two months of staying in the offshore, the Bavarians must return to Pearl Harbor to clean the pipelines and boilers."

"It doesn't matter. If the Americans are sincere, my current warship will return to China, and then there will be new warships to make up for the lack of warships in our hands." Su Xiong said without caring.

"Okay, if this is what the government means, this lack is indeed not a problem." Redel was speechless. There was no way, there were 12 German fleets alone!

"From a geographical point of view, New Ireland and New Britain form an umbrella. The former is an umbrella surface and the latter is an umbrella bone, which directly supports the entire front. The latter is an important logistics base for the Japanese front line, and there will be many ports, airports and military facilities here. The Japanese can bombard the American airports and landing grounds, and we can also bombard the Japanese landing grounds and airports. Even attacking several Japanese navy anchorages is OK. I believe that by that time, the Japanese navy's aviation power loss should be very large." Su Xiong said.

"The main idea is correct, and the time point is blocked very well. And we can only do this." Raidel thought for a while and said. At the beginning of the war, the Germans must not do this, because the Japanese navy was in full swing at that time. If they were bitten, Bavaria would probably stay. You should know that the Japanese Navy had 6 Fuso and 2 battleships equipped with 16-inch artillery battleships! Why do you fight? And at that time, Japanese aviation power could also provide good reconnaissance and air defense to the fleet, and it was uncomfortable to go out to waves.

However, as time goes by, when the Japanese Navy is no longer at its peak and the aviation power is lost, the German Navy can act, because Germany can guarantee that 4 to 6 battleships and 1 aircraft carrier will always be deployed in the Pacific Ocean, but the Japanese Navy cannot guarantee that 8 of the strongest fast battleships will always be on the front line!

During a war, one side's strength can remain unchanged, and the other side will be reduced over time. Then the combat power of the side with unchanged strength is actually relatively enhanced...

When the combat effectiveness of both sides reached a certain level, Su Xiong could act. He brought 4 or 6 fast battleships and 1 to 2 aircraft carriers, plus cruisers, destroyers and his own submarines sponsored by the Americans. Well, that's about it.

At this time, Japan's land-based aviation power cannot do anything to Su Xiong. They may be able to provide guidance to the Japanese fleet, but when both sides are fast warships, as long as the luck is not particularly bad, if Su Xiong wants to avoid the war, the Japanese fleet cannot catch up. Moreover, in this case, the Japanese fleet absolutely has no numerical advantage of 2 to 1. In the open Pacific, if you want to divide troops to intercept it, you are seeking death!

Then the problem is now. If Su Xiong is more conservative, it is to constantly drag the Japanese fleet by maneuvering at sea. If the Japanese fleet cannot worry about the front line of New Ireland, then Benson will naturally have no pressure. As for the effectiveness of the army's attack? This is not something Su Xiong can consider.
