Third Reich: I took over power

"Your Excellency, Commander, Your Excellency, Chief of Staff. Is the Navy ready for the expedition to Tianzhu Ocean? The Eastern Empire stepped up its offensive on the Tianzhu Peninsula. Because we do not have enough troops on the Tianzhu Peninsula, we can only rely on the indigenous troops of Tianzhu to resist the Japanese attack. So, it's very difficult. The Supreme Command hopes that the navy can enter the Tianzhu Ocean as soon as possible, at least control the sea in the western part of the Tianzhu Ocean, and establish a safe maritime transportation line. So that the Imperial Army can transport a large number of personnel and weapons and equipment to the Tianzhu Peninsula. And, ensure the safety of subsequent material supplies." Hess said

"Your Excellency, the Imperial Navy is ready. All our ships have completed overhauls. The personnel also completed their rest and recuperation. As long as the combat order is issued, the attack can be launched in three days."Marshal Dönitz said immediately.

This was his first battle after taking over as commander of the navy, and it was probably the only large-scale naval battle. Marshal Dönitz was also eager to win this battle cleanly. This established his prestige among the navy.

Hess nodded, still very satisfied with the efficiency of the navy.

"Is the navy sure to defeat the Imperial Navy of the East in one fell swoop in a major war?" Hess asked.

Although he believed in the strength of the navy, he also knew that there were many uncertainties in naval battles. And the Toyo Empire Navy was not a weakling. It would not be easy for the Third Reich Navy to win. If it doesn't work well, it will cost a lot. Even the possibility of the ship capsizing in the gutter is not impossible. Whether the navy can win depends on whether the Third Reich can send troops to Tianzhu on a large scale. peninsula and even the Nanyang region. As well as launching attacks on the homeland of the Eastern Empire in the future.

Therefore, the navy will be very important in this battle.

"Your Excellency, the navy is confident of defeating the Japanese. The Japanese navy is indeed very strong. However, the Imperial Navy still had an overwhelming advantage. Now, the battleships lost by the Imperial Navy among the Japanese Navy have been replenished. The damaged battleships have also been repaired. The Eastern Imperial Navy is definitely no match for the Imperial Navy!"Marshal Dönitz seemed very confident.

Indeed, the current Third Reich Navy is more powerful.

The capital ships of the Third Reich Navy were not sunk. Although several ships were severely damaged, they have been repaired long ago. Okay.

As for aircraft carriers, although two Giant-class aircraft carriers were sunk, the first batch of four Empire-class aircraft carriers have already entered service. This makes the strength of the third navy's aircraft carrier formation even stronger.

Whether it is in terms of capital ships or aircraft carriers, the Third Reich Navy has an overwhelming advantage.

As long as there are no accidents, or as long as the Third Reich Navy's luck is not too bad, the Third Reich Navy will win this battle. The victory will be without any doubt

"Your Excellency, the current strength of the Imperial Navy is even stronger than when it was in the decisive battle with the Navy of the Eagle Kingdom. In terms of capital ships, there are still 8 H-class battleships, four N3-class battleships, 4 Lion-class battleships, 16 P-class battleships, four Richelieu-class battleships, 3 3G-class battlecruisers, and 3 O-class battleships. cruisers, three Admiral-class battlecruisers, and two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers. There are 47 ships in total. Of course, the Dunkirk-class battlecruisers are relatively old and are no longer suitable to participate in wars. But even so, we can dispatch 45 capital ships.

In comparison, the Toyo Empire currently has only four Yamato-class battleships, four Kii-class battleships, two Kaga-class battleships, two Nagato-class battleships, two Ise-class battleships, two Fuso-class battleships and two A King Kong-class battleship. In addition, there are only four Amagi-class battlecruisers. There are only 22 ships in total. Although, the Toyo Empire Navy is also making every effort to build more capital ships. According to the intelligence we have obtained, they are working overtime to start building the second batch of four Kii-class battleships, four Amagi-class battlecruisers and four Yamato-class battleships. However, these battleships may not be completed in a short period of time. This means that these warships will not be able to be used in a short period of time. The Imperial Navy has twice the advantage in terms of capital ships!"

Marshal Albrecht analyzed.

Hess nodded. He knew that the Third Reich Navy did have an overwhelming advantage in terms of capital ships.

"In terms of aircraft carriers, the Third Reich Navy also had obvious advantages. Currently, the Imperial Navy has 4 Imperial-class aircraft carriers, 12 Qi Bolin-class aircraft carriers, two Glory-class aircraft carriers, two Indomitable-class aircraft carriers, 8 Giant-class aircraft carriers and the USS Unicorn aircraft carrier, a total of 29 ships.

As for the Toyo Empire, according to the information currently obtained, the Taiho aircraft carrier, two Shokaku-class aircraft carriers, the Hiryu aircraft carrier, the Soryu aircraft carrier, the Ryujo aircraft carrier, two Akagi-class aircraft carriers, the Hosho-class aircraft carrier, and 7 Unryu-class aircraft carriers. aircraft carrier. In addition, there are three Zuiho-class aircraft carriers converted from seaplane carriers and submarine carriers, three Great Eagle-class aircraft carriers, two Flying Eagle-class aircraft carriers, the Dragon Phoenix aircraft carrier, the Sea Eagle aircraft carrier, the Condor aircraft carrier and two Thousand Years-class aircraft carrier. In addition, there are five Dafeng-class aircraft carriers and nine Yunlong-class aircraft carriers under construction.

Currently, the Toyo Empire Navy has a total of 29 aircraft carriers that can be used in the war. In terms of number, it is the same as the Imperial Navy. However, the aircraft carriers of the Toyo Imperial Navy generally have smaller displacements, especially those modified aircraft carriers. Therefore, the number of carrier-based aircraft carried is relatively small. Even though both sides have the same number of aircraft carriers, the Imperial Navy still has an absolute advantage in the number of carrier-based aircraft.

In addition, in terms of the performance of carrier-based aircraft. The Imperial Navy's carrier-based FW-190 fighter can definitely crush the Toyo Empire's Zero fighter. In terms of pilot skills, the Empire also has an advantage.

Combine these reasons. The overall strength of the Imperial Navy is far more powerful than the Toyo Imperial Navy!"

Marshal Albrecht continued his analysis.

Hess nodded repeatedly, and he also clearly realized the advantage of the Imperial Navy. If no accidents occur, the Imperial Navy's victory is almost certain.
