Therefore, Sims has been considering another situation, that is, not to accompany the Su Xiong fleet, what about letting the U.S. fleet go straight? Anyway, even if relying solely on destroyers and patrol boats, the US fleet should be able to spot the Japanese fleet first. Even without Su Xiong, the US fleet will fight the Japanese fleet alone, not to mention killing the other side, but there is no problem with a stalemate! Everyone just hurts for a while. Then when the Japanese fleet was damaged and could not run out, Su Xiong's fleet came in again to harvest and expand the results!

In Sims's opinion, since the Japanese fleet came out and met with the American fleet again, there is definitely no reason for them to give up fighting against the American fleet when the Su Xiong fleet is not there. Otherwise, what will your family do? ? With such a good opportunity before us, why should the Japanese navy give up? Of course, considering that the German fleet may appear at all times, Sims believes that the best option for the Japanese fleet is to fast in and out! Concentrated firepower to attack some weak ships in the U.S. fleet. After gaining an advantage, they quickly moved in. After all, even if it is the iron tortoise that the Americans think is good, the 343MM vertical armor belt on the side is not so safe for the Japanese 15-inch naval guns replaced by new artillery shells. As for the battleships before New York, let alone Yes, the 12-inch armor is too fragile.

Well, the goal of the American fleet is very simple. If it can slow down a few Japanese warships, then the rest will be left to the German fleet. If Su Xiong can lose this, then just find a piece of tofu. Forget it. In line with the level of trust in Su Xiong, Sims believed that this matter was not a big deal, so he naturally believed that Su Xiong could handle these things well, and even Su Xiong was able to take advantage of the chaos when the US-Japan fleet met. It is also possible for the fleet to be intercepted! After all, when the Su Xiong fleet and the Japanese fleet met, the Japanese fleet must have fought with the US fleet for a while, and the state must be bad, and the fleet formation is also not good.

Some people may have said that if the US and Japan fleets are simply fighting each other, what if the Japanese fleet uses its own speed advantage to seize the dominant position? This can greatly expand the Japanese military's tactical advantage. Sims also thought about this issue. The first point that needs to be explained is that before the war, the Americans also considered how to engage the Japanese navy if they only rely on slow warships.

The so-called standard warships are also standard in tactics. First of all, their maneuverability is the same. When doing a certain tactical action, they can be described as neat and uniform. Therefore, even if they encounter an unfavorable battlefield situation, such as being seized by the opponent. If the word is crossed, then the US fleet can quickly turn to open the battle line under the cover of an absolute superior destroyer.

Compared to Britain and Germany, the battle between the US and Japan fleets is just a small scene. The number of battleships is limited, so even if one side gains a position advantage in a short period of time, it will not cause too serious consequences. After everyone has opened the battleships, it will be easy to say that the Americans have a quantitative advantage, and the Japanese have a little quality. Advantage. (Well, to put it bluntly, there are 6 Fusos that are okay. Don't forget the King Kong or something.) As long as it is not particularly unlucky, although the US fleet may not be able to beat its opponents, it is not much worse.

And to be honest, because of visibility issues, the two sides are likely to have an encounter and then fight indiscriminately. If they fight at close range, this is obviously more beneficial to the US fleet with more destroyers.

Therefore, after thinking about it again and again, Sims thinks that Su Xiong's tactical level is still sufficient, and it is okay to give him a chance. As for what happens if Su Xiong's misjudgment leads to a defeat in the battle? There is no other way, at least the pot can be thrown to the Germans.

"Actually, although the US-German fleet has an absolute quantitative advantage, in fact, our fleet is not enough compared to the area we are responsible for. Therefore, General Su Xiong, your fleet must decisively assume the defense of a certain area. Mission, we will assign you an additional destroyer squadron, and you can act on your own in the area designated by General Benson. But when General Benson requests the German fleet to be rebuilt immediately in the name of the fleet commander, your fleet must be implemented "Just when Benson was a little bit unable to come to Taiwan, Ma Jifen still saved Benson's face.

In name, Admiral Benson still has the highest command, and Su Xiong also got the right to act cheaply within a certain range. It was a compromise between the two parties.

"I didn't question General Su Xiong's ability, but I would like to say that all the statements made by your Excellency at today's meeting are based on the Japanese fleet's actions in the next severe weather, if it should happen. If you make a misjudgment, what should you do? For example, the Japanese did not act, or you made a serious mistake in the action." General Benson said.

"It's very simple. If there are two situations like yours said, I will resign immediately, and after returning to Germany, I will retire directly and no longer hold any military position!" Su Xiong's answer is very simple and decisive. Even Admiral Benson was a little moved~lightnovelpub.net~ because this kind of approach is nothing left, and the First World War determines his future career!

Resignation is actually nothing. In Benson’s view, if Su Xiong’s performance does not meet the expectations of the U.S. Navy and is such a thorn, once the battlefield loses because of his reasons, Benson will also be happy to see Su Xiong resign. However, Su Xiong promised to retire directly after returning to Germany. This is a bit too far. Unless it is too big a mistake, otherwise, under normal circumstances, the officers of European countries will put it on hold, such as giving a spare job or not. Even for important posts, for Su Xiong, a man who has experienced nearly a hundred battles and made great achievements, he can guarantee that he will resign because of a defeat in a battle. Admiral Benson really has nothing to say. To some extent, this is a military order.

"Your decisiveness and bluntness surprised me." Benson didn't know what to say. The so-called people want a face and a tree. Since Su Xiong dares to say that, if something happens, Su Xiong will retire after returning to Germany. Will become inevitable. For a guest general who came to help him, Benson also felt that Su Xiong was honest enough.

"If there is no politics or other factors related to the national level, I think we will become very good friends." Benson said.
