Chapter 604
"Your Excellency, all the aircraft carriers and capital ships of the Pacific Fleet have been lost, and cruisers and destroyers have also suffered heavy losses. It can be considered that the entire army was wiped out. If you want to retaliate against the Eastern Empire, you will have to dispatch battleships and aircraft carriers from the Atlantic Fleet for reinforcements. And we in the Atlantic Ocean also have to deal with the pressing pressure of the Third Reich Navy."Admiral Harold Stark, Chief of Naval Operations, said.
Franklin's face suddenly became very ugly.
The overall strength of the Eagle Navy is very strong, but unfortunately, they need to deploy in two oceans and need to deal with it at the same time. Enemies from the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.
This also makes it impossible for the Eagle Navy to gather all its strength, thus giving the enemy opportunities to defeat each other.
Especially now, the Pacific Fleet is almost completely wiped out. This is for Eagle Country For the country, it is undoubtedly an extremely heavy blow.
"Our greatest enemy is, of course, the Third Reich. But the Third Reich is not at war with us now. But the Japanese attacked us despicably and shamelessly. If we don't respond, I'm afraid there will be no way to explain to the people. Therefore, we have no choice now. We must mobilize our forces to the Pacific to prepare to face the Japanese Imperial Navy. As for the Third Reich, they are at war with the Woolly Bear Alliance. Unless they defeat the Woolly Bear Alliance, it is unlikely that they will start a war with us at this time. The Third Reich had always tried its best to avoid fighting on two fronts."Franklin said.
Everyone else nodded. Since the Third Reich and the Woolly Bear Alliance have already started a life-and-death battle, the possibility of another war against the Eagle Country is indeed very small.
"We must go to war against the Eastern Empire. And, defeat them in the shortest time. Otherwise, after the Third Reich solves the Furry Bear Alliance, it may launch an attack on us. Next, the Navy, Army, and Army Air Force must take action!"Franklin ordered
"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!"The soldiers replied one after another.
Since the war has broken out, it is time for them to go up and perform.
"The Navy transferred all the main forces of the Atlantic Fleet to the Pacific Ocean. We must fight a decisive battle with the Eastern Empire as soon as possible!"Franklin gritted his teeth and said.
The Pacific Fleet was attacked by the Eastern Navy and the entire army was annihilated. This is undoubtedly a shame for the Eagle Country!
"Yes, Your Excellency. We can mobilize the USS Raider, USS Yorktown, USS Wasp and USS Hornet to fight in the Pacific. In terms of capital ships, two North Carolina-class battleships, three New Mexico-class battleships, and two Nuyo-class battleships can all go to the Pacific to fight. The rest of the battleships are all old battleships, and their main guns have a caliber of only 305 mm. Even if they go to the Pacific, they will not have much effect. In addition, a group of cruisers, destroyers and submarines will be dispatched to the Pacific to restore the strength of the Pacific Fleet."Admiral Harold Stark said.
Franklin nodded. At this time, the most powerful combat power in the West has been mobilized. In the entire Atlantic Ocean, there are only some old ships built before the last world war..
If the Third Reich launched an attack on the Kingdom of Eagle Sauce at this time, Eagle Sauce would not be able to resist it.
Fortunately, the Third Reich is working hard with the Bear Alliance, and it is impossible to launch an attack on the Kingdom of Eagle Sauce for a while.
"Our aircraft carrier and main construction must be further accelerated. We must first defeat the Eastern Empire, and then deal with the Third Reich. The pressure we are under will become even greater."Franklin sighed.
"Your Excellency, we have no choice now. There will definitely be a war between us and the Third Reich. Now that we are involved in a war, we can only do our best to win this war." said Gen. George Marshall.
"Yes, we have no other choice now. The enemy is already at your door. If we don't defeat them, our country will never be able to erase this shame. Our people will never agree!"Franklin said.
All the senior officials and soldiers of the Eagle Kingdom nodded repeatedly.
Although they didn't want to start a war so early, they had no choice at all.
Since the Eastern Empire dared to take the initiative to start a war, they had no choice but to attack the Eastern Empire with all their strength and defeat it. The Eastern Empire, and then we can talk about other things
"Your Excellency, according to the latest intelligence, the Eastern Empire dispatched six battleships to bombard the Hawaiian Islands. According to analysis, the Eastern Empire is very likely to launch a landing operation on the Hawaiian Islands. Our intelligence personnel in the Eastern Empire also reported that the Army of the Eastern Empire was gathering at the port. Their destination is most likely the Hawaiian Islands!"Donovan, Director of the National Intelligence Coordination Bureau, said
"What?"Franklin was immediately shocked.
The faces of other senior officials were also very ugly.
For the Eagle Country, everyone is very clear about what the Hawaiian Islands mean.
Although the area of the Hawaiian Islands is not It is large, but its geographical location is very important. It can be called an unsinkable aircraft carrier.
With the Hawaiian Islands in hand, even if the Eagle Country loses its entire Pacific Fleet, it can still use it as a base to fight against the Eastern Empire and ensure the safety of its homeland. Safe.
At the same time, they can also use the Hawaiian Islands to launch an attack into the depths of the Pacific and start a decisive battle with the Japanese Imperial Navy.
But if the Hawaiian Islands are lost, then the Eagle Country will lose the entire Pacific Ocean.
Eagle Country If the Eagle Kingdom wants to defeat the Eastern Empire, it must take back the Hawaiian Islands. In this process, it is unknown how many troops will be lost and how much resources and military power will be consumed.
More importantly, the Eagle Kingdom The west coast of Japan will no longer be safe.
It is very likely that the Toyo Empire Navy will take this opportunity to launch an attack on the mainland of the Eagle Country to further attack the Eagle Country, and even force the Eagle Country to admit defeat.
"Order our defenders in the Hawaiian Islands to resist the Japanese attack no matter what. The Navy speeds up and reinforces the Hawaiian Islands as soon as possible!"Franklin ordered
"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!"General George Marshall and General Harold Stark both answered. On
December 8, 1940 AD, the Eagle Country officially declared war on the Eastern Empire.
The scale of this world war has once again expanded.
