As soon as Chile, Brazil, and Argentina reached an agreement on joining the League of Nations, they informed the United States Government, which was overjoyed and immediately informed the other 10 countries of the League of Nations that Chile, Brazil, and Argentina were willing to join the League of Nations.

At the British Prime Minister's official residence at 10 Downing Street in London, England, after receiving a telegram from the United States, British Prime Minister Herbert? Henry? Asquith put Chancellor of the Exchequer Robert ? Peel, Secretary of the Navy Fisher, and Air Force Secretary Rossberry were summoned together, and as for Prime Minister Herbert? Henry? Another of Asquith's henchmen, British War Secretary Henry Wiley, was on the battlefield in the Urals at this time.

Prime Minister Herbert? Henry? Asquiz said: "What do you think about the U.S. offering Chile, Brazil and Argentina to join the League of Nations? ”

Chancellor of the Exchequer Robert? Peel then said: "Obviously, the United States let Chile, Brazil, and Argentina join the League of Nations in order to expand the influence of the United States within the League of Nations, and now within the League of Nations, only Japan supports the United States, and if Chile, Brazil, and Argentina are added, the United States can compete with our Entente and the Allies in the right to speak in the League of Nations." ”

Admiral Fischer continued: "However, Chile, Brazil and Argentina are all South American powers, especially the navies of the three countries, and their strength is not weak, the Chilean Navy has 1 aircraft carrier, 1 super dreadnought battleship, 1 battle cruiser and 2 dreadnought battleships, a total of 5 capital warships, the Argentine Navy has 1 super dreadnought battleship, 1 battle cruiser and 2 dreadnought battleships, a total of 4 capital warships, and the Brazilian Navy also has 1 super dreadnought battleship and 1 dreadnought battleship, If Chile, Brazil, and Argentina join the League of Nations, it will be equivalent to adding 11 more capital warships to our League of Nations, and these main warships are all purchased from European and American countries, and their combat effectiveness is also guaranteed. ”

Air Force Minister Rossberid hesitated for a moment and said: "To tell the truth, the current war on the front line of the Urals has shown the strong military strength of the Chinese Empire, and it is not so easy to completely defeat the Chinese Empire. ”

Chancellor of the Exchequer Robert? Peel frowned and said: "But if these three more countries from South America join the League of Nations, then after the war, it will be equivalent to three more countries sharing the cake." ”

At this time, Prime Minister Herbert? Henry? Asquith spoke, "If you want to share the cake, you must first make the Chinese empire into a big cake, Chile, Brazil and Argentina are still qualified to be the ones who make the cake, and we can't ignore the face of the Americans." ”

In the Imperial Palace in Berlin, Germany, German Emperor Wilhelm II sneered and said to German Prime Minister Hohenlohe: "The United States wants to draw Chile, Brazil, and Argentina into the League of Nations this time, and it seems that it wants to form a small alliance with the United States as the core to compete with our allies and the Entente!" ”

Prime Minister Hohenlohe said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the first task now is to defeat the Chinese Empire, Chile, Brazil and Argentina have good military strength and war potential, the minister thinks that we should sell the Americans a face, as for other issues, it is not too late to study after defeating the Chinese Empire." ”

Wilhelm II nodded and said, "A few more allies, of course I will not object, tell the US government that our German Empire agrees with Chile, Brazil and Argentina to join the League of Nations." ”

Britain, the boss of the Entente, and Germany, the boss of the Allied powers, did not put up any obstacles to the entry of the three South American countries of Chile, Brazil, and Argentina into the League of Nations, while the younger brothers of the other Entente and Allied powers, seeing that the boss had agreed, also took the opportunity to express their welcome to Chile, Brazil, and Argentina to join the League of Nations.

At 8 o'clock in the morning on August 8, 1914, Chile, Brazil and Argentina simultaneously announced their membership in the League of Nations and declared war on the Chinese Empire, and in less than half an hour, the Chinese Empire quickly declared a state of war against Chile, Brazil and Argentina.

Subsequently, the League of Nations Joint Command Headquarters assigned the forces of Chile, Brazil, and Argentina to the Pacific Theater, but the main naval forces of the three countries were assigned to the United Pacific Fleet of the League of Nations.

Although the Chinese Empire was surprised by the accession of Chile, Brazil and Argentina, it didn't care too much, in the eyes of the military and political leaders of the Chinese Empire, even if these three South American countries joined the League of Nations, they were just playing the role of soy sauce, after Lin Daxin got the news, he just snorted coldly and said: "There are 3 more guys who are sent to death!" ”

Lin Daxin now has no energy to pay attention to the three small South American countries that are not self-sufficient, and he is currently focusing on the huge European Combined Fleet of the League of Nations.

After learning that the European Combined Fleet of the League of Nations had set off from the port of Herakrion on the Greek island of Crete, several main fleets of the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire had already rushed to the Persian Gulf, and the Ministry of Defense of the Imperial Chinese Empire knew that the United European Fleet of the League of Nations must be preparing to blockade the Persian Gulf, so the Ministry of Defense of the Imperial Chinese Empire mobilized most of the forces of the Royal Navy of the Imperial Chinese Navy to prepare for a naval battle with the European Combined Fleet of the League of Nations that could almost determine the direction of the war.

The main fleet of the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire still has 6 fleets on the surface, and 4 of them are ready to gather in the Persian Gulf at once, including the Fourth Fleet of the Royal Navy, which originally escorted the 25th Field Army to Kuwait, and the 2 secretly formed task force aircraft carrier formations of the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire, which will also participate in this naval battle with the European Combined Fleet of the League of Nations, and the 2 task force aircraft carrier formations will also be the main force and killer weapon in the naval battle.

The warships of these two task force aircraft carrier formations were all stolen by Lin Daxin from the Blue Water Planet Cass Kingdom, including 2 large aircraft carriers, 2 small aircraft carriers, 4 escort aircraft carriers, 6 missile battleships, 6 missile battle cruisers, 12 missile cruisers, 20 missile destroyers, 20 missile frigates and 18 submarines.

It's a pity that the most powerful means of attack of the two task force aircraft carrier formations, that is, the use of missiles for long-range attacks, because of the number of missiles, there is a very big limit, and at present, the arsenal of the Chinese Empire is still unable to imitate medium and long-range missiles that can be put into actual combat, and Lin Daxin's missiles transported from the time and space of the Blue Water Planet to the time and space of the Chinese Empire are limited after all, otherwise it may be possible to annihilate the huge European Combined Fleet of the International Alliance with only two task force aircraft carrier formations.

On August 14, 1914, an unusually large fleet was sailing in the Arabian Sea, and this huge fleet consisted of the First Fleet, the Second Fleet, the Third Fleet, the Second Task Force and the Third Task Force of the Imperial Chinese Navy.

On the bridge of the aircraft carrier Hanwudi, the flagship of the First Fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy, Vice Minister of Defense Sun Xitao said to Jiang Chen, commander of the First Fleet, Ma Yan, commander of the Second Fleet, Chen Ming, commander of the Third Fleet, Fan Yongchang, commander of the Second Task Carrier Formation, and Shi Youming, commander of the Third Task Carrier Formation: "According to intelligence, the main force of the Ottoman Turkish Navy and the Indian fleet of the British Navy left the waters of the Persian Gulf. It is likely to go to the convergence with the main forces of the coalition of Nations combined European fleets, and the main forces of the coalition of European coalition fleets are about to pass through the Red Sea and enter the Arabian Sea, and the time for a decisive battle at sea is getting closer and closer. ”

After the end of the last war with the Nine-Nation Alliance, Sun Xitao was transferred to the Ministry of National Defense and became one of the deputy ministers of the Ministry of National Defense, and Jiang Hui, another deputy minister of the Ministry of National Defense, was responsible for all aspects of the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire.

After a pause, Sun Xitao said in a deep voice: "The intelligence department has ascertained the general situation of the European Combined Fleet of the League of Nations, in this European Combined Fleet of the League of Nations, there are only 255 capital warships, not including the 16 main warships of the British Navy, the Indian Fleet and the Ottoman Turkish Navy, and other all-steel battleships, large fast armored cruisers, fast protection cruisers, destroyers, torpedo boats and submarines add up to more than 3,000 ships, this naval battle decisive battle, The opponents we are facing are very strong. ”

Fan Yongchang, commander of the second task force aircraft carrier formation, said with a smile at this time: "Brother Sun, this time there are two task force aircraft carrier formations of me and Lao Shi, even if the European United Fleet of the League of Nations has 271 capital warships and more than 3,000 warships of other types, the final winner of this naval battle must belong to our Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire." ”

Sun Xitao showed a smile and said: "Old Fan, old history, this time we really have to rely on your 2 task force aircraft carrier formations, otherwise our 3 main fleets here, plus the Persian Gulf, Wen Yu's Fourth Fleet and the Kuwaiti garrison fleet, we only have 84 main warships and more than 500 warships of other types, compared with the entire European Combined Fleet of the League of Nations, there is still a big gap in strength, but you have to be more leisurely when using missiles, There was an accidental explosion at Your Majesty's secret base for the production of missiles, and almost all of them were blown up. ”

Lin Daxin has always said that the advanced weapons and equipment brought from the other 2 time and space are produced by his secret base, and now that the ring is dormant, Lin Daxin said that the secret base was blown up by an accident, and a new secret base is under construction, although there are many loopholes, but no one dares to question the emperor's words.

The First Fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy has 6 Emperor-class aircraft carriers, 6 Huanghe-class super battleships, 4 Jewel-class battlecruisers and 4 Feng-class dreadnought battleships, a total of 20 capital warships, and 12 large fast armored cruisers, 12 medium armored cruisers, 24 fast protection cruisers, 24 destroyers, 36 torpedo boats and 16 submarines, and the Second Fleet is equipped exactly the same as the First Fleet.

The Third Fleet has 5 Emperor-class aircraft carriers, 7 provincial super dreadnought battleships, 4 Jewel-class battlecruisers and 4 Dragon-class dreadnought battleships, and the other types of warships are the same as the 1st and 2nd fleets.

The Fourth Fleet has 4 Mythic-class aircraft carriers, 6 Emperor-class super dreadnought battleships, 6 Admiral-class super dreadnought battleships, and 4 Chitu-class battlecruisers, and other types of warships are the same as the previous 3 main fleets.

Shi Youming, commander of the Third Task Force Aircraft Carrier Formation, sighed and said: "If it weren't for the fact that the missiles of our task force aircraft carrier formation are too precious to be replenished for the time being, this decisive battle at sea with the European Combined Fleet of the League of Nations can be completed by dispatching our two task force aircraft carrier formations." ”

Jiang Chen, the commander of the First Fleet, said at this time: "In fact, with the four main fleets of our Imperial Chinese Navy, even if there are no two task force aircraft carrier formations to help, our four main fleets are not afraid of the European Combined Fleet of the League of Nations. ”

Ma Yan, commander of the Second Fleet, said: "If we fight hard with four main fleets, with the excellent performance of our warships and carrier-based aircraft, we are not without the certainty of victory, but the losses will be very, very large. ”

Then Chen Ming, commander of the Third Fleet, asked Sun Xitao: "Old Sun, where are you going to put the battlefield of the decisive battle at sea this time?" ”

Sun Xitao replied without thinking: "Strait of Hormuz! ”

Chen Ming nodded and said: "The Strait of Hormuz connects the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman, and it is also the only waterway that enters the Persian Gulf. ”

Sun Xitao said with a smile: "The Fourth Fleet and the Kuwaiti garrison fleet have now arrived in the Strait of Hormuz, and are waiting for our fleets to converge, and after the European Combined Fleet of the League of Nations arrives in the Strait of Hormuz, the two task force aircraft carrier formations will first launch long-range missile attacks, and then the carrier-based aircraft of the two task force aircraft carrier groups will launch the second and third rounds of attacks, and the aircraft carrier aircraft of the four main fleets will carry out a few more rounds of attacks. ”

The other five fleet commanders all nodded with a smile and decided to make the Strait of Hormuz the graveyard of the League of Nations Combined European Fleet. (To be continued.) )
