The surprise attack on Pearl Harbor has determined Yamamoto's strong position. Since then, the island country's navy has crossed the West Bank of the Pacific. Unfortunately, the American war machine has started quickly. In the midway naval battle, the main force of the island country has been annihilated! He was also badly defeated in the naval battle of Guadalcanal.

Two years ago, Yamamoto returned from the United States and successively served as captain of the cruiser Isuzu and the aircraft carrier Akagi. He was promoted to major general last year and served as the technical director of the naval aviation department. Later, he was transferred to the commander of the first air force.

Yamamoto is now the technical director of the naval aviation department.

Xierik values Yamamoto 56 most because xierik knows that Yamamoto 56 is the most important person among the island countries to cooperate with Germany.

This year, at the second London naval armaments conference, Yamamoto made a judgment that the day of war with Britain and the United States will not be too far away. How to make a leap forward in aviation before the war is the most important thing!

The island countries can only cooperate with Germany in technology!

With the direct participation of Yamamoto, Henkel company transferred the technology of he70 dive bomber to the island country. The Type 99 shipboard blaster, which played an important role in the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, was developed based on this technology.

Without the aluminum alloy technology provided by Germany, it is impossible to have the success of Zero fighter.

In exchange, Yamamoto also fully disclosed the technology of his flagship aircraft carrier Akagi to Germany, which built the aircraft carrier count Zeppelin with this technology.

To the island country, what hilrick values most is, of course, the technology of the island country's aircraft carrier!

Germany needs battleships to cruise in the Atlantic and aircraft carriers! Besides, as far as Libya's oil resources are concerned, the Mediterranean is a necessary route to transport to Europe! The air bases in Libya and Italy are not enough. If there are two aircraft carriers cruising in the middle of the earth sea, it is enough to ensure the connection of this transportation line!

Aircraft carriers are also the most important in competing with Britain and the United States for sea power in the Atlantic!

But now, Germany does not have any technical reserves for aircraft carriers!

German aircraft carrier is also a lamentable project. The Zeppelin aircraft carrier started in 35 years has not been completed until World War II. Germany has used its limited capacity to build submarines.

Now, the crossing of Chirac has changed Germany. If it was built in 32 years and accelerated at the same time, several ships will be built and put into service before the outbreak of World War II!

As for another obstacle, Gorin is around him. Gorin insists that all those who can fly should belong to the air force, and there is a constant quarrel over who commands the warship!

Now, Gorin is in the corner of the cabin. Xierik's position has surpassed Gorin. At that time, xierik will speak and see what else Gorin dares to fart!

"Our main purpose in coming to the island countries this time is to reach an agreement with the island countries on the transfer of aircraft carrier technology." "We in the German Navy can't live without an aircraft carrier," hirek said

Hearing the aircraft carrier, Goering's eyes immediately lit up: "Sherek, do you say we want to develop surface carrier aircraft forces? That's a good idea. Our air force must be able to take off at sea. "

Now, Hitler has become the chancellor of Germany and has done a very good job. Therefore, as expected, when the presidential election is held in 32 years, Hitler should be able to become the new president of Germany. At that time, he will have overall power, and Goering will certainly follow suit.

Golin has long been interested in the position of commander-in-chief of the imperial air force. It can be said that the position is specially tailored for him. Now when it comes to surface shipborne aircraft, Golin is moved. Of course, it belongs to the air force!

"Gorin, don't be paranoid." Shrek immediately interrupted Goering's dream: "look, Britain, the United States, island countries, these countries, does the aircraft carrier belong to the air force or the Navy?"

Other countries belong to the Navy. As for island countries and the United States, there is no separate branch of the air force called the army aviation.

Goering immediately wilted: "it's too absolute for you to say so, Shrek? Other countries don't, why can't we? "

At the beginning, Goering's status was much higher than that of Shrek, but now Shrek has become the No. 2 figure in the party, and Goering can't match it at all.

"Goering, we in Germany will certainly have a strong air force and thousands of advanced fighters in the future. Why do you still think about the Navy?" Shirek said, "why don't I suggest that the chief leader let you be the commander-in-chief of the Navy and float in the Atlantic Ocean?"

So Goering could only swallow his words back to his stomach. He didn't want to go to the sea.

Colonel LUT Yans gave a favorable look. Before he came, he received the order to supervise xierik, but now he has been convinced by xierik.

Every action and starting point of Chirac is for the strength of Germany! It's all for winning the next war. If such a soldier is investigated, it's a stain on the soul of the German army!

Remembering that at the end of World War I, the signing of the Treaty of Versailles made the German Navy only have some light ships at most, and now Germany is ready to carry out technical reserves of tens of thousands of ton battleships, Colonel lutyans feels that the future is bright, and he is very looking forward to the coming of that era in the future!

"Shrek, do you think battleships or aircraft carriers are important in naval warfare?" Colonel lutyance asked hilrick.

Which is important? The development of future generations has been very clear. All battleships have been retired and eliminated, and aircraft carriers have become the symbol of a great power.

But now, battleships still have their advantages. In terms of containing the enemy's maritime power, battleships are far better than aircraft carriers.

"Both are important." Hilrick can only briefly introduce: "for example, when the navies of various countries restrict each other, they will focus on battleships, and the restrictions on aircraft carriers are very small. Therefore, the development of navies and aircraft carriers are not subject to too many restrictions."

Naval competition!

If you want maritime hegemony, you need advanced naval equipment, and the enemy will in turn continue to build larger warships and equip larger artillery. In this way, the arms race will continue to escalate.

This result is to drag down many countries eager to become a maritime power. Therefore, countries draw a line for their navies through negotiation. The total tonnage can not exceed much, and the ship gun can not exceed much. It has become a trend to solve it at the conference table.

The London Conference on the limitation of naval armaments is such a meeting. The two sides are bickering and bickering for their respective interests. Then, secretly, they make some breakthroughs more or less.

For example, the island countries were forced to accept the restriction regulations at the 30-year meeting, which forced Yamamoto to make such a summary: the Imperial Navy forced to accept the inferior proportion can only give a blow to the enemy in the form of air attack at the beginning of fighting with the superior U.S. Navy!

Therefore, the island countries have vigorously developed the aircraft carrier because it is unrestricted.

The plane came a gentle bump and has landed in the airport of the island country!

Looking out from the cabin, Shrek saw a sparse number of welcoming personnel, much lower than the treatment received in the Soviet Union and China!

However, Shrek's eyes fixed on the short man in the island's navy uniform at the front. It was him!
