Chapter 634: Lieutenant General Fletcher's Confidence
"How long do we have to get to the fortress of Vladivostok, which the Soviets occupied? Major General Noyce! β
In the command room of the Essex-class aircraft carrier, Vice Admiral Fletcher asked Rear Admiral Noyce, who was beside him.
"One day, if there is no miscalculation!"
Major General Noyce replied immediately.
"Did the Japanese find out about our movements?"
Lieutenant Franchisor continued.
"Not yet, because in the Central Pacific, Vice Admiral Spruance and Rear Admiral Turner are engaged in current combat operations, and now many Japanese air forces and ships are attracted to them, because they are bombing the airfields of the Japanese islands on a large scale!"
Major General Noyce responded with intelligence that he knew.
"What about the Germans? What is the current state of their naval forces on the Eastern Front? Is it our strength, or are they? β
After listening, Lieutenant Fletcher continued to ask.
"The German fleet on the Eastern Front has not yet found out their disposition, but we now know that most of the aircraft carrier fleet led by DΓΆnitz is engaged in a fierce naval battle with Admiral Cunningham's carrier fleet in the Mediterranean; In addition, Richthofen and Guderian, who also found out that the German army, also led another aircraft carrier fleet to the Middle East! β
"However, we have not heard of Guderian and their landing operations in the Middle East, but Rommel's aircraft carrier fleet has successfully carried out landing operations on the side of the pseudo-French colony of Morocco, and has now occupied the Spanish colony of Ceuta!"
Major General Noyce thought for a moment and continued to answer.
"Hmmm! We will send more reconnaissance planes to attack as soon as possible to find out the sea situation in the area of the Vladivostok fortress that we are going to reach, and we will definitely not be able to enter by the German and Japanese aircraft carrier fleets! β
"Especially don't let them enter, I don't know yet, we are the aircraft carrier fleet that President Roosevelt and they had high hopes for! The purpose of this covert operation is to assist the Soviets in regaining control of their Baltic Sea power, as well as to assist their future army counterattacks! β
"Therefore, we must quickly complete the combat mission, and be able to sink and shoot down all the German troops we found, and the Japanese fleet, and the carrier-based aircraft they sent to attack!"
"It's time for this damn Pacific battle and world war to end as soon as possible!"
"We want to let those damned German and Japanese soldiers know that our navy of the United States of America is powerful, and we are the future overlord of the sea!"
Lieutenant General Fletcher said solemnly.
"That's right! I think so too! By the way, what do you think of those Soviet fleets? Will they be against us when we enter their fortress? β
"Because by all means, we're all on their turf right now!"
As soon as Lieutenant General Fletcher finished speaking, Major General Noyce voiced his concerns.
"It's hard to say, we can only watch out for them! Everything is a move, and there is something to be supported by President Roosevelt! And now the common enemies of our two countries are Germany and Japan, and I believe that those Soviet officers will not be so stupid to come to us for hostility in the current situation of unclear warfare! β
"If they do this, then we will definitely not give them any more military supplies, weapons and equipment, and the biggest consequence of them doing this is that the Germans will have the opportunity to take advantage of their hard-won efforts to bring back their home!"
"Then these Soviet officers and soldiers will know what the suffering of the country is, and their Stalinist leader should not be so stupid!"
Hearing this, Lieutenant General Fletcher shook his head and said without worrying at all.
"Hopefully! I'm always feeling nervous, I don't know why! β
Major General Noyce frowned, feeling uneasy.
"I believe in the strong strength of our newly formed task force 20 aircraft carrier fleet, neither the Germans, nor the Japanese army, nor the Soviet fleet will be able to defeat us!"
Lieutenant General Fletcher listened, but he was full of confidence and his eyes were sharp.
