Hu Chuyuan is very concerned about the changes in the situation in the whole world, but he is also more concerned about another issue - the Giant Spirit God Project, he knows that even if Li Kaiye and Cai Ye do not complete this arduous task in the end, as long as his filing plan succeeds, China can still occupy an invincible position. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

On this day, Hu Chuyuan prepared a table of meals at home and asked people to invite Cai Yi, who was busy with his busy schedule, over.

The banquet was very simple, with four dishes and one soup, and there were only two people, him and Cai Yi.

Cai Ye came very early, came over at four o'clock in the afternoon, and when he saw Hu Chuyuan in the study, he bowed respectfully and said, "Your Excellency! ”

Hu Chuyuan didn't expect him to come so early, and he felt a little strange at the moment, but he didn't say anything, so he asked Cai Ye to sit down first, and slowly brewed a pot of oolong tea by himself.

After waiting, Hu Chuyuan and Cai Yi asked, "Don't you have so much to do today, why did you come so early?" ”

Cai Ye smiled bitterly: "I knew that the chairman would ask me to come over to ask about something, so I have been prepared, and the matter has been arranged for the evening, so I will come over and report to you first." ”

Hu Chuyuan waved his hand and said: "I can't talk about reporting, I'm just curious, Yang Zhenlin is not the kind of person who can't fight a tough battle, why don't you let him capture Moscow in one go, and let the Russians continue to survive like this, it's not a good thing after all!" ”

Cai said: "President Li and I have carefully analyzed that the current overall strength of the Russian army is still there, and they have already moved to St. Petersburg for the first time. The total strength of the Russian army is still there, their tanks are very rough and durable, they are easy to produce in large quantities, and once they are firmly occupied in the Kursk region, they are likely to capture Ukraine in the short term. If so, even if we take Moscow, it will be more difficult. ”

Hu Chuyuan nodded slightly and said, "Yes, this place in Kursk is still very important to Russia. ”

Cai Ye said: "The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, no matter how downtrodden Russia is, it is also Russia, they still have the ambition to become a great power again, their soldiers are indeed more heroic and good at fighting than we expected, and the example of sacrificing individuals to resist explosives to blow up our tanks is very common in the Russian army." Moscow has a special significance to the Russians, if they have to attack, Yang Zhenlin's forces gathered on the outskirts of Moscow are still relatively difficult, and it is likely to drag on until after the cold winter, and once the logistics supply cannot keep up, there will be problems. At this point, he is also more jealous. We now let him withdraw the main force to Kursk, and let Jiang Guangnai lead the Second and Fourth Armies of the Northern Front to guard the Volga River Valley, so that Yang Zhenlin can get a large amount of supplies from Ukraine, and Jiang Guangnai's supplies are not a problem. Especially now that the Ukrainians are also provoked and ready to go to war, we can make full use of the power of Ukraine! ”

Hu Chuyuan thought about it for a while, and felt that such an idea was still very good, and he did not rush to fight for some kind of symbolic victory, but continued to fight with the enemy for a long time in terms of grand strategy.

He suddenly asked Cai Yi: "The Russians took Kursk so easily, and you reacted so quickly and drove others out in less than a month, I think this is your strategy, right?" ”

Cai Yi smiled and said: "It's not a good strategy, but I just happened to receive information that Britain asked the Russian army to capture Ukraine and Poland, and was willing to support a large number of military equipment of the Russian army, and the Russian army does seem to have this plan, so we deliberately relaxed for a period of time to let the Russian army attack south." ”

Hu Chuyuan said: "This method is good! ”

He couldn't help but sigh.

Immediately, he asked Cai Ye again: "At present, what do you think we have a chance of winning?" ”

Cai Ye pondered for a moment and said: "Chairman, in fact, I think we basically have an eighty percent chance of winning, no matter what Britain and the United States think, a very important key point is the production capacity and resource supply of military weapons, and we still have an absolute advantage in this regard." After beating Australia from the beginning, it was a small hole that opened and it slowly got bigger and bigger. Suffice it to say, we rely on the resources of the whole of Eurasia and Australia and Africa, while they rely only on the resources of the Americas, and the war is actually won or lost. Our task now is to continue to wear down our opponents and wait until the right time to go all out. We are suffering from the fierce attrition of our opponents in the Western European battlefield, which makes it impossible for the Russian army to obtain sufficient support, and our military industry is also rapidly manufacturing and producing, and within a year, the gap between us and the Russian army in military equipment will be very obvious. Starting with the breakthrough of the Russian army, once the Russian army is defeated, we will be able to fully enter the European theater. During this period, we still have to ensure the balance of the navy, if the navy cannot limit the US and British navies, the outcome will be a bit difficult to say! ”

Hu Chuyuan nodded slightly and asked, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

"The problem now is that the U.S. Navy can be moved on both sides of the Panama Canal, and it will take too long for our Navy to rush back from the Atlantic to the Pacific," Cai said. We also considered attacking Panama, and it didn't make much sense unless it was to blow up the Panama Canal directly. Now that I think about it, the best way is to station a larger fleet at Pearl Harbor to attract the US Navy to be ready for a decisive battle in the Pacific Ocean at any time, and to support the Combined Fleet in the Mediterranean as much as possible to ensure access from the Mediterranean to the Indian Ocean. ”

Hu Chuyuan nodded and said, "You can do it, how to fight, this is your business, as long as you think this is the best choice." ”

Cai said: "Understood, chairman. Regarding this war, although we are more prepared, it will take at least a year to raise our military strength to the peak, and then fight to the death with the opponent at this time, and if we win, we will win to the end, the enemy has nowhere to escape, and if we lose in one place, we will lose everywhere! ”

Hu Chuyuan smiled bitterly.

If China is defeated in one place, it will not be defeated in one place and defeated everywhere, and it is precisely because of this that Cai Ye did not dare to take risks on the outskirts of Moscow and re-enact the glorious record of occupying Moscow in the past.

This is commendable.

A large-scale war of this scale is not forced to be helpless, and it is indeed necessary to put stability first.

…… What the hell happened to the French?

Could it be that all the courage and courage were exhausted in that great Napoleonic era?

This question really makes the whole world sigh!

China and Germany vs Britain, the United States, France and Russia, from the face of the card, how can the Atlantic Alliance occupy more advantages, but when the Germans only took a month to let France fall, and France's entire industrial capacity and military supplies that have been prepared in the past few years belong to the Germans, the whole war situation has gone to another kind of collapse.

If there was one point that had the greatest impact on the situation in World War II, it was undoubtedly the rapid defeat of the French, with more than 3 million Atlantic troops having to withdraw to Britain and Spain in disarray, and more French troops having to surrender on the spot.

With the establishment of the French Provisional Political Axe, France withdrew from the Atlantic Alliance and re-switched to the Eurasian Alliance.

Honestly, the French have been very active throughout the preparation phase, and their investment in the development of tanks is almost second only to that of China and the United States, and even more than the British in terms of technical strength.

The Haqikes H-39, Renault R-35, Renault R-37, Somoa S-35, and Charles B1 are the five main tanks of the French army, of which the Renault R-37 alone is equipped with more than 3,000 vehicles.

On the whole, the Renault R-37 was the last light and medium tank developed by France before the war, with a body weight of 12 tons, and other parameters were even better than the PZ1 tank except for a slight lack of power system.

For a long time after the First World War, Germany could not develop tanks and armored vehicles, but through the internal cooperation of some military industrial enterprises, some engineers participated in the research work of China's tank system engineering in China and Mercedes-Benz and other companies, and from 1930, Germany began to systematically introduce new T-20 and T-25 series tanks from China, and on this basis, imitated new tanks that better met their requirements.

Relying on the control of the Fukang consortium behind the scenes, the development of Germany's armored car and tank manufacturing industry was very rapid, and by 1933, Germany's military industrial production and manufacturing capacity surpassed that of Britain and France again.

The 15 giants of Germany's military industry are BASF Chemical, Opple, Siemens, Thyssensteel, Krupp Mechanical Heavy Industries, Rheinmetall AG, Volkeng Heavy Industries, Mercedes-Benz Corporation, MAN Company, Borgvard Company, Henschel Company, Messerschmidt Aircraft Factory, Bavarian Aircraft Factory, Bavarian Aircraft Factory, and Wilhelm Royal Shipyard.

Among them, the enterprises controlled by the Fukang consortium are BASF, Opple, Siemens, Thyssen Steel, Krupp Machinery, Mercedes-Benz, and Volkeng, and the German Rheinland, MAN, Bavarian Aircraft Factory, and Bavarian Mechanical Engineering Factory also have shares of the Fukang Consortium.

Almost all of Germany's best tanks, aircraft, warships, guns, ammunition, explosives, and artillery are provided by companies under the Fukang Consortium, and after the rapid occupation of France, the Fukang Consortium immediately attacked, using the Fukang Consortium's original contacts and roots in France, to quickly integrate France's machinery industry and chemical industry, and to control and participate in giant enterprises such as Renault, Sommoa, Alstom, Peugeot, Citroën, Saint-Nazaire Shipyard, and French Chemical Company, and organize these enterprises to quickly put into new production.

In fact, the truth behind this situation is that the Fukang consortium defeated the Anglo-American consortium without blood, and the British and American consortia and capitalists from various countries spent huge sums of money to recover the shares of French industry from the Fukang consortium, and almost returned to the Fukang consortium at the lowest price.

At the same time as the integration of French industry, the Fukang consortium also re-concluded a new memorandum of cooperation with the French capitalists, and the two sides forgot the past and began to look forward to new cooperation and new common interests.

Benefit.

This is the eternal leitmotif.

Many years later, if the ultimate winner of the war was indeed the Eurasian Alliance, one will never forget how the French were defeated so quickly that the entire Atlantic Alliance was in crisis.

After the effective integration of France's military industry, everything was as Cai had originally predicted, and in 1941 both China and Germany reached an unprecedented peak in military power.

By April 1941, in the Army, the T-30 series of tanks had become the largest tank in human history, with 57,542 units produced in the entire Eurasian Union, 21,400 T-35 series tanks, and 52,300 TZB-33 series armored vehicles.

The Zibo Aircraft Factory did not disappoint Hu Chuyuan, and the F-20 propeller fighter they designed surpassed the P47 and other fighters, and quickly became the most widely used fighter in World War II, with the strongest combat ability and survivability.

Compared with the Atlantic Alliance's P47, P51, La-7, and the much larger Mk5\9 Spitfire, the F-20 Black Hawk fighter has a power of 1822 horsepower in the engine, while the opponent is closest to it in engine power is the MK3, and even then there is a difference of 120 horsepower.

The design basis of the F-20 itself is to first adapt to the high-power engine, and then take into account the aerodynamic layout, in order to maintain low weight, high survivability, high fuel load and other issues, especially in the face of the low wing load problem of the Zero series, it is more peculiar in the entire aerodynamic layout, the upper line is smoother, the lower abdomen is larger, and the overall shape is similar to the P51.

The instantaneous power and maneuverability of the F-20 Black Hawk fighter are very strong, the firepower is large, the pilot's field of vision is very large, the speed and range are also maintained in the first ranks, and the most important feature is the use of high-strength aluminum-titanium alloy in a large area, which has special protection for key positions such as fuel tanks.

The F-20 Black Hawk fighter received a very good evaluation after it was put into service, and the major domestic military manufacturing enterprises and Bavarian aircraft factories are speeding up production, and more than 8,000 aircraft have been produced in just one year, becoming the ace killer of the entire world air battlefield.

In the battle between the British and German air forces, the Black Hawk fighter even created a Black Hawk nightmare corridor.

By April 1941, the Chinese Navy had 12 Novosibirsk-class aircraft carriers, 22 Yabinsk-class aircraft carriers, and 25 307-class escort carriers, as many as 72 new cruisers and 225 destroyers in service during the war, and as many as 14 aircraft carriers were still under construction.

This is an era of continuous technological progress and updating, the F-20 Black Hawk fighter from the production to today, in just one and a half years there have been three technical transformations, derived from six models, the corresponding carrier-based aircraft F-202 series also has two models, the latest model of the Gryphon engine has increased the horsepower to 2000 horsepower.

Even so, the Black Hawk fighter was one of the last splendours.

The complex competition between F-7 and F-8 finally won with the F/FEI-8 series, the F/FEI-8 series with air intake on both sides of the unprecedented match with the airborne radar manufactured by Shanghai Electric Company, although the power is not large, but it can also be regarded as an epoch-making model, up to ten years of technology accumulation and development, testing makes the F/FEI-8 series from the birth of the F/FEI-7 series.

In order to adapt to the plan of the Navy's carrier-based aircraft, Jiangnan Heavy Industry Co., Ltd. in the long-term competition with Hyundai Heavy Industry, in fact, the F-8 and FEI-8 are designed separately, in addition to most of the application materials, parts and engines are the same, the FEI-8 carrier-based aircraft and F-8 jet fighter essentially belong to two kinds of fighters, corresponding to two completely different design parameters.

Although Hyundai Heavy Industries failed miserably in the new aircraft project, and even suffered heavy losses in the contracts such as transport aircraft and early warning aircraft, only the helicopter project won, but after all, they also won two games in a row in the plan of the new aircraft carrier, not only holding the manufacturing contract of the Novosibirsk-class aircraft carrier, but also winning the pre-research funds of the next generation of Omsk-class aircraft carriers, and still maintaining the hegemony of warship manufacturing.

Jiangnan, Fuguo, Hyundai three heavy industries in the new generation of jet transport aircraft, destroyers, submarines, long-range bombers, cruisers, armored vehicles, self-propelled artillery, missiles on the competition is still fiercely continued, even on the automatic rifle project, the three major heavy industries are also violently entangled, although the major shareholders are also Fukang consortium, but they all belong to listed companies, must have their own interests to pursue and protect.

As needed, they also continue to implement joint production and cooperate with each other, even if the jet fighter project fails, Hyundai Heavy Industries will still provide Jiangnan Heavy Industries with OEM production, engines and spare parts.

The sudden appearance of the F/FEI-8 series of fighters has opened a new starting point in the history of the entire world air force, a new era has been opened, and the propeller fighters of the F-20/202 series have really become the last swan song, and at the same time, in the face of the threat of two series of super fighters, the Atlantic Alliance has strengthened the improvement of the MK Spitfire and P51 fighters on the one hand, and on the other hand, invested all manpower and material resources in the research and development of jet fighters.

However, this is a very long road, from the beginning of development to the final stable production, China's 208 Engineering Institute has walked the road for almost two decades, this is not a gap that can be caught up overnight, even if they produce a new jet fighter, they will find themselves facing more problems.

The F/FEI-8 series of fighters is nicknamed "Hornet", it has been roughly similar to the F-14 in the design of the entire aerodynamic layout and shape, using twin-engine engines, and the carrier-based model FEI-8 adopts a folding wing design, due to some technical problems, it can only be used on the Novosibirsk-class aircraft carrier, as a supplement, the Navy has adopted F-307 fighters on the Yabinsk-class aircraft carrier and the 202-class escort aircraft carrier, instead of the Fei-7, Because the take-off and landing data of the FEI-7 on the Yabinsk-class aircraft carrier is also not very ideal.

In order to make full use of the Yabinsk-class aircraft carrier, there is already a project of a new carrier-based aircraft FEI-9 in operation, with Hyundai Heavy Industries and Zibo Aircraft Factory, a subsidiary of Phu Quoc Heavy Industries, participating in the bidding at the same time.

On the vast sea, with the gradual commissioning of aircraft carriers in large batches, the strength of the Chinese Navy has been far ahead of the United States, but in the Pacific waters, there has been no large-scale exchange of fire between the two sides.

Although the United States has drawn up a plan to retake the Hawaiian Islands and spread the flames of war to the entire Pacific theater, it has so far not launched any more provocations against China's Pacific Combined Fleet, which is blockading the Pacific Ocean and the Pacific Empire, preventing it from having a chance to actually enter the war.

In the past 30 years, he has lost not only the opportunity to become a world power, but also the courage to blindly confront China, even if the pan-right-wing is very fierce, it is still the centrist party that is in power, and most of the mainstays in the army have benefited from the peace period in the Shibata Toshio era, and they have studied at the Chinese Navy and Army Academy.

These people understand a truth very well, unlike other Atlantic Alliance countries, Yueben is too close to China, and joining the Atlantic Alliance countries can allow Yueben to gain a lot of benefits, but even so, it would be too stupid for Yueben to challenge China at this time without the full support of the United States.

It is true that Benben can build a military force of 4 million men, but it is still the same sentence -- they are too close to China, and as long as China uses Busan and the Ryukyu Islands in Korea as a springboard to carry out a large-scale amphibious landing operation against Yuben, it is tantamount to igniting fire.

The lesson of the last two fiascos is profound, do not attack your opponent without naval superiority.

The main force of the Americans' Pacific Fleet will not act on its own initiative for a day if it is not stationed in Japan, and the Far East Group Army, which is specifically aimed at Japan's military strength, will not move, and will be steadily stationed in the theaters of Korea, Vladivostok, and Taiwan Province, blockading Japan, and not wasting military strength and materials to attack, nor allowing Japan's forces and materials to play any role.

In June 1941, World War II had entered a more intense period, after opening the Northern Passage and directly providing large-scale military supplies to Russia, the Atlantic Alliance finally decided to burn the war and compete for Africa's resources, and at the same time open up a third battlefield in the Far East to use the combat power of the Russian army to share the pressure of the Russian army.

In response, the Chinese Navy realigned its strategic distribution, established a new Atlantic Combined Fleet Command, and expanded its military presence in Africa to 4 million troops.

The Chinese Navy's aircraft carrier group is roughly divided into three parts, namely, the Pacific Theater, the Mediterranean and Indian Ocean Theater, and the Atlantic Theater, and as many as 14 aircraft carriers have been transferred to the Atlantic Theater, with 4 Novosibirsk class aircraft carriers, 6 Yabinsk class aircraft carriers, and 4 307 class escort aircraft carriers.

The seizure of South Africa would mean that the war resources available to the Atlantic Alliance would be further reduced.

In July 1941, the first large-scale naval battle between the Chinese and American navies in the Pacific Theater finally broke out, and the U.S. Pacific Fleet completed the assembly and preparations, with 14 battleships, 4 Yorktown-class aircraft carriers, and 2 escort aircraft carriers as the main force to launch the first attack on Hawaii.

After China's aircraft carrier strategy was gradually revealed, it was impossible to determine which side of the aircraft carrier and battleship was heavier, and the Atlantic Alliance, which was heavier, adopted the strategy of simultaneous construction, and the US military surpassed China in the total tonnage of battleships at the end of 1940, and the number of its aircraft carriers also reached 12, four of which were escort aircraft carriers converted on the basis of the original cruisers.

Relying on stable intelligence work, Admiral Zhang Zhepei, commander-in-chief of the Pacific Theater, had already made full preparations, and in order to deliberately attract the main force of the US military, on the basis of Pearl Harbor having two Novosibirsk-class aircraft carriers and four Yabinsk-class aircraft carriers stationed, he did not mobilize more troops to participate in the battle, although the number of battleships was small.

With the strength of the two sides roughly equal, the huge submarine force in the Pacific Theater, which has never been exposed, has played a very crucial role, and the air base and high-power radar station built in Hawaii also play a very important role.

After quickly locking on the opponent, the first large-scale naval battle between the Chinese and American navies took place at 16:22 on July 17, 1941 - the Battle of Gardner, which was also the first large-scale aircraft carrier engagement in human history.

Relying on the joint operation of the FEI-8 series fighters and the AE-10 early warning aircraft, the carrier-based aircraft of the two sides caused more than 1/3 of the US carrier-based aircraft to be shot down in the first round of confrontation, and the surprise attack of the US military did not have any effect, and in the subsequent large-scale naval battle, the rest of the US carrier-based aircraft were also quickly shot down.

For both sides, even if they lose, this battle has little strategic value, both sides have a huge foundation in the training of pilots, and the industrial manufacturing capacity is also the most powerful in the world, but it is still of great significance.

It is a pity that although the US military has exhausted all possibilities and designs, the role of the Fei-8 series fighters and AWACS aircraft is still unoffset, and the US carrier-based aircraft are even inferior to the F-202 that follows behind.

The worst part was that the U.S. military miscalculated the speed and range of the F-8 fighters, as well as the squadron's ability to transmit information, and the Air Force F-8 fighters that took off from Oahu quickly arrived on the battlefield and participated in the campaign at the earliest time.

After a three-hour naval battle, the US military tried to withdraw from the battlefield, but was besieged by F-8 fighter groups and bomber groups for a long time, and finally lost 4 aircraft carriers, 9 battleships, 3 cruisers and 21 destroyers, and the main force of the US Pacific Fleet was almost completely lost, while the Chinese Pacific Combined Fleet only lost one escort aircraft carrier, two battleships, and 4 destroyers, and one Yabinsk-class aircraft carrier suffered heavy losses.

With this huge advantage, the Combined Pacific Fleet began to adjust its course, quickly seizing the Aleutian Islands and using Alaska as the main direction of attack.

One of the biggest effects of the Battle of Gardner was that it delayed the U.S. military's plans on the African theater of operations, and the Atlantic Combined Fleet, with its more aircraft carriers, appeared indestructible.

The Battle of Gardner itself was also an important turning point, and after accumulating enough, the Chinese navy began to attack in full force, becoming more active in the blockade of the Indian and Mediterranean Oceans, and repeatedly in the Atlantic.

From September 1941 to March 1942, the three combined fleets of the Chinese Navy continued to attack the naval bases held by Britain and the United States, completely blockading the entire Mediterranean, breaking off the connection between the Atlantic Alliance and India, and blockading South Africa and Benben at the same time.

In the continuous large-scale naval battles between the two sides, the Atlantic Alliance Navy has suffered heavy losses in succession, relying on huge production capacity and long-term 20 years of scientific research investment, and the successful transformation of the Chinese Navy in the aircraft carrier strategy is the direct cause of this series of victories.

Compared with the Chinese Navy's Yabinsk-class aircraft carrier and its improved model Yabinsk-2, there is a large gap between the active aircraft carriers of various countries, and the Novosibirsk-class aircraft carrier of the Chinese Navy is the real giant, the Congo-class, Congo-2, Guinea-class, Benin-class, Angola-class cruisers and Chaoyu-class, Chunchao-class, Chunlu-class destroyers are all very good escort ships, and the battleships of the Yingying-class, Yuzhou-class, and Qingzhou-class battleships surrounding the aircraft carriers can still provide stable firepower output.

Before the Battle of Gardner, the Atlantic Alliance Navy had no fewer aircraft carriers than the Chinese Navy, and the key difference between the two is that the Chinese Navy was more resolute in the transformation of its aircraft carrier strategy, and earlier.

Since 1920, China has fully considered the factor of aircraft carriers in the process of designing ships, and the warships produced after 1930 are completely designed around aircraft carriers, especially the Congo 2-class, Angola-class cruisers and Chunchao-class destroyers, including the Qingzhou-class battleships, which have also fully considered these factors in the actual design, and have good anti-submarine air defense and cooperative aircraft carrier combat capabilities, and, All of these warships have helicopter platforms and a lot of room for improvement.

This allows the Chinese Navy to continuously upgrade its existing warships during the war, rather than blindly obsolescence and renewal.

The task of the Atlantic Alliance's naval forces at this time is not only to narrow the difference between the two sides in the number and quality of aircraft carriers, but also to readjust the design of other supporting ships of the entire navy.

The gap between the two sides in radar and carrier-based aircraft is also obvious, and these are not gaps that can be bridged in just a few years.

During this period, the Chinese Navy was already a well-deserved world naval hegemon, and it can be said that it was the real new invincible fleet in the world.

In January 1942, the Italian Navy was defeated, the Western Front Army Group fully occupied Italy, Italy ended Mussolini's rule, and the newly formed Italian political axe withdrew from the Atlantic Alliance and joined the Asia-Europe Alliance as a defeated country.

After the liquidation of Italy's internal military enterprises and traditional chaebols, the Fukang consortium continued to acquire Fiat through cross-holding, and through a series of integrations, and then through Fiat integrated the entire Italian military manufacturing, automobile production, engine, shipbuilding, electrical and many other industries, and the Anglo-Dutch Fortis International Consortium also added a new subsidiary - UniCredit Italy.

Taking full advantage of the gap between the two navies that could not be bridged in these two years, in March 1942, the General Staff of the Chinese Navy began to implement a larger-scale battle plan -- the Battle of Panama, which resulted in the largest naval battle in the history of the world -- the Battle of the Virgin Islands.

As the eastern gate of the Panama Canal, the Virgin Islands have always been under the control of the British, after the United States Pacific Fleet was completely weakened, through the coordination of the Navy General Staff, more than 8 Novosibirsk-class aircraft carriers, 14 Yabinsk-class aircraft carriers, 12 307-class escort carriers, and more than 400 escort ships were concentrated in the Atlantic Combined Fleet, trying to control the entire Caribbean Sea, and then seize control of the Panama Canal.

Once this goal is accomplished, the Atlantic Alliance will completely lose control of South America, its ties with each other will be cut off, it will not be able to obtain strategic goods from South America, and the US Navy will not be able to travel between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans through the Panama Canal.

This would be a real turning point in the entire Second World War.

The ultimate showdown between the British and American navies and the Chinese navy took place on March 27, 1942, and the Chinese navy had a numerical advantage of more than 30% in the number of aviation and other ships, especially the tonnage class of aircraft carriers.

This naval Armageddon, the largest in human history, is actually the Armageddon of all the naval forces of both sides.

Even if the U.S. and British forces could use the airfields in the Caribbean islands to support the navy, the overly obvious naval gap between the two sides was still irreparable and irreparable, and the entire battle lasted seven hours in the first encounter, followed by a three-day follow-up offensive in the Caribbean, and finally the Chinese navy, which was more thorough and full in transformation, won a complete victory.

The Chinese Navy's rich experience in amphibious operations was also one of the main reasons for the great victory in this campaign, and the large-scale landing operations of the Marine Division and the airborne operations of the Army quickly dismantled the opponent's airfields, thus losing the geographical advantage that the Atlantic Alliance had relied on.

Although the Chinese Navy lost 5 aircraft carriers, including a very critical Novosibirsk-class aircraft carrier in addition to 4 Class 307 escort carriers, the British and American navies lost 11 aircraft carriers, in addition to 17 battleships and 52 cruisers sunk.

After the Battle of the Virgin Islands, the Atlantic Alliance's naval strength has suffered an unprecedented blow, while the Chinese Navy still has 11 Novosibirsk-class aircraft carriers, 20 Yabinsk-class aircraft carriers and 17 307-class escort carriers, while four Novosibirsk-class aircraft carriers are about to enter service, and another six Yabinsk-class aircraft carriers will be completed by the end of the year.

After a long period of observation of naval warfare, the State Military Commission of China no longer intends to convert the 307-class special type ships into escort aircraft carriers, but the Yabinsk-class aircraft carriers will assume the duties of escort aircraft carriers, with the Novosibirsk aircraft carrier as the real center and core force.

In April 1942, the main force of the Southern Front Army was transferred to South America, and after seizing control of Panama, it quickly occupied Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Guyana, Suriname, and recaptured Central Guiana.

After the Western European theater, the Moscow theater, and the African theater, new theaters were opened, and the U.S. military began to compete directly with China's Southern Front Army Group in Central America through Mexico, trying to regain control of Panama.

The U.S. military is still ready for a war, but the British who have suffered heavy losses in the Royal Navy are embarrassed?

The most important practical significance of the naval battle of the Virgin Islands was that the Atlantic Ocean had been controlled by China, the connection between Britain and the United States had been cut off, and the victory or defeat in the Western European and African theaters had in fact been decided.

In the end, it was the navy that decided the victory?

This result is probably something that President Lee Kaiye did not expect, however, what the final outcome will be, Lee Kaiye has no way of knowing!

(To be continued)
