BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1291: lose-lose
"Your Excellency, Commander, we have sunk four aircraft carriers, six battleships, and three battlecruisers of the island navy in this battle. In addition, we have also severely damaged one battleship and one battlecruiser. We have also sunk their six heavy cruisers. , severely damaged two heavy cruisers and a large number of light cruisers and destroyers." Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Oscar Kumetz said.
"There are only four aircraft carriers and five battleships left in the island nation\'s combined navy fleet. However, their strength should not be underestimated. In the upcoming naval battle, we must find a way to eat up all the island nation\'s combined navy fleet. OK. In this case, they will have no way to attack Southeast Asia and Australia." Admiral Konrad Albrecht said.
"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander." A group of generals from Germany and the Pacific Fleet replied one after another.
"What is our loss?" Admiral Konrad Abbrecht then asked.
"Your Excellency, Commander, in this battle, two of our aircraft carriers were sunk and two were severely damaged. As for capital ships, one battleship was sunk, one battlecruiser was sunk, and two more Battleships were badly damaged. Heavy cruisers, light cruisers and destroyers suffered little," said Lieutenant General Oskar Kumetz.
"Compared to what we have achieved, this loss seems small. But, don\'t forget that we also lost hundreds of shore-based aircraft before. The entire Mariana Islands airport was destroyed. So It can be said that this time we did not actually achieve much victory. It can even be said that both sides suffered losses. However, our strength in the Pacific Ocean is far stronger than that of the island navy. Therefore, we will be able to gain an advantage after this battle. Otherwise, the odds of winning this naval battle are still very difficult to say." Admiral Konrad Abbrecht said.
The smiles on the faces of the other generals also disappeared, replaced by serious faces. As Admiral Konrad Albrecht said. The strength of the German navy in the Pacific Ocean is already stronger than that of the island nation\'s navy. But in the end, this is the result. This is not a proud victory for the German Navy.
"Gentlemen, no matter what, the islanders have been severely injured by us. I believe that in the next battle, we will definitely make the islanders pay a greater price. The victory in the Pacific naval battle must eventually belong to us !” General Konrad Abbrecht said.
"Yes, Your Excellency Commander!" The generals of the German Navy never doubted the final victory of this war.
"Notify Lion City that the damaged aircraft carrier and battleship should be repaired as soon as possible. We will need them in the next war. In addition, the airport on the Mariana Islands will also start repairing immediately. Our battle with the islanders, It will start again soon. Next time, we will not give them another chance," said Admiral Konrad Albrecht.
Although he just won this naval battle, Admiral Konrad Abbrecht is already preparing for the next battle.
After arranging all this and signing his name on the telegram sent to the country, Admiral Konrad Abbrecht returned to his cabin to rest. He hadn\'t slept all night before.
When the good news from the Pacific Fleet was received, it was exactly 3 am in Berlin time. However, Marshal Manstein, Minister of War and Chief of the General Staff, and Marshal Raeder, Minister of the Navy, went to the palace together to report the victory to Emperor Qin Tian.
"Your Majesty, the Pacific Fleet and the Indian Ocean Fleet have jointly damaged the combined fleet of the island nation\'s navy. We have sunk the island nation\'s four aircraft carriers and nine capital ships. We have also severely damaged two capital ships. The island nation\'s navy\'s heavy cruisers and light cruisers and The destroyer also suffered heavy losses. We have already gained an advantage in the Pacific Ocean." Marshal Raeder said.
Qin Tian nodded, even though his sleep was disturbed. But being able to hear such good news also made him very satisfied.
"Is our loss big?" Qin Tian asked.
"Your Majesty, our losses are not small. In the Indian Ocean Fleet, two aircraft carriers were sunk and two other aircraft carriers were also severely damaged. In addition, two capital ships were sunk and two were severely damaged. As for cruisers and destroyers, The loss is not big. However, before the islanders attacked our airport on the Mariana Islands, six of our airports were destroyed, and a large number of shore-based aircraft were blown up on the airport." Marshal Raeder said.
The smile on Qin Tian\'s face disappeared: "It seems that this is a result of mutual losses! However, our strength is still stronger than the island people. This will give us an advantage in the Pacific Ocean."
"Yes, Your Majesty. There is no way for the navy of the islanders to defeat us. Then, they have no way to send troops to Nanyang and Australia. As long as they do not control the sea for a day, we will be safe in Nanyang and Australia. If we can continue like this If we go down, it will be very beneficial to us." Marshal Manstein said.
Once Germany wins the Russian battlefield, Germany\'s military strength will be liberated. At that time, they will have enough strength to deal with the islanders, and it is not impossible to even defeat the islanders in one fell swoop.
Qin Tian nodded, but he always believed that islanders would not admit defeat so easily. The Americans behind them will never allow the island country they have invested heavily in to support to exert this strength.
