"Damn it, it is said that we helped the Japanese buy these two warships! Are the politicians in Washington all brainless? They don't know there is a conflict between us and the Japanese?" Major Benson Nakamori corrected himself in comparison with several photos.

When Roosevelt and others were in Bavaria, His Highness the Prince once repeatedly hinted that Americans would regret this action. But neither Roosevelt, Day, nor the US president in the White House had expected that the retribution would come so quickly! Less than two months after Roosevelt returned to the United States, something happened in Hawaii, and then Japan decisively sent warships to confront each other.

According to the Americans' understanding, I just helped you, and you sent the warship directly to my doorstep. (Okay, Americans already think Hawaii belongs to them) What do you mean? You will think that Roosevelt felt like he was buying a boat for the Japanese a few months ago.

However, compared to Day, Roosevelt is at most disgusting himself. Because the board was hit on Day in the end, it was a secret to the American delegation going to Germany, but there was no airtight wall in the world. There were always some people who would know that when these insiders saw that their efforts were not rewarded, they would naturally analyze the problem and find a scapegoat. Unfortunately, Day is the captain, so who do not look for you? Of course, Ambassador Hay, who has always advocated cooperation between the United States and Britain, was also affected. This was not because his identity was exposed, but because his arguments made many people dissatisfied.

Since the relationship with Japan is a bit tense, the Americans must be prepared for both hands, and taking the opportunity to collect information from Japanese warships is one of the preparations. Roosevelt personally issued this order. The executor was Benson. Unlike other people, this American military officer in Germany himself hates Britain very much, and by the way he also hates Japan, the younger brother who supports Britain. He prefers Germany.

After receiving the task, he began to hold the camera in one hand and the banknotes in the other to find suitable prey. By chance, he contacted Baron Vittorio, the designer of the cruiser of the Hiren. When the latter revealed that Bavaria was going to conduct a new turret shooting experiment recently, and the turret used was almost the same as the turret 2 on the Hiren, Comrade Benson was excited and immediately gave $1,000, expressing his willingness to visit. The Baron, who drank a little too much at the time, stuffed the check into his pocket.

In this experiment, Benson was surprised to find that the full-speed double-mounted turret can actually reach 3 shells per minute! This rate of fire is at least twice that of the current 8-inch guns in the United States! The newly-in-service Brooklyn has just reached a rate of 1.5 rounds per minute! If calculated this way, the actual projection of the 6 8-inch guns on the side string of the Brooklyn is not as good as the 4 8-inch guns of the Sun Entry. This is only the second-level main gun of the Sun Entry, and they also have 4 10-inch guns! This is really a sad story!

The shocked Benson sent the information to the country while looking for a way to see the two warships close. So he once again found Mr. Baron who had a deal with him. He took 10 photos for $5,000, or not! Benson made a request in a very tactful tone. The Baron said that he needed to convince the people in the shipyard, and it took time and money to convince these people. So Benson spent another $5,000 and got the opportunity to visit around the battleship.

Knowing the height and reference data of the surrounding tower crane, the basic appearance data of the warship can be obtained through a simple geometric calculation, and then through some other aspects of information, at least basic identification is not a problem. Through several contacts and spying, Benson also had a rough understanding of the performance of the warship. When the ambassador to Germany asked him about his attitude towards the warship, Benson's answer was very simple.

"A Japanese can deal with Brooklyn and New York at the same time. A Japanese cruiser can sweep away our entire Far East fleet, then go back and replenish the shells, and simply repair them to attack again!" Benson's short words almost scared the ambassador!

In fact, what Benson said is not wrong. The main gun's rate of fire of the Brooklyn is already very bad compared to the Sun Entry, and the earlier New York will definitely be even worse! The main gun is not as fire as the opponent, and the New York sub-cannon has 12 4-inch guns, and Brooklyn has 12 5-inch guns, which is not much advantage over the 20 105mm guns on the Sun Entry.........

Not to mention the protection. The armored division in New York is 4-inch non-hardened armor! This thing can only barely block the high-explosive bomb. The Brooklyn has hardened armor, but the armor belt is only 3-inch... If you rely on the dome armor, the core cabin defense is enough, but the waterline is probably going to be sieve. Benson really doesn't like these two armored cruisers. As for the group of garbage in the Far East, let alone!

"What would happen if the Japanese obtained two cruisers?" The ambassador's voice trembled slightly. Benson's answer seemed too horrible to him.

"Then all the cruisers we can go to the Far East together cannot defeat the Japanese fleet! Moreover, the average speed of the Japanese fleet is above 19 knots. Relying on geographical advantages, their combat effectiveness is more terrifying than on paper!" Benson rolled his eyes and said weakly.

"This is a serious threat to our future strategy in Hawaii. We have not gained benefits from getting close to the United Kingdom, but instead damaged the interests of the United States in the Far East." The ambassador said, helping his eyes.

A steady stream of intelligence was sent from Germany to Washington. This intelligence finally appeared on Roosevelt's table, looking at the report of the confrontation between the US and Japanese fleets in Hawaii, and looking at the two huge battleship photos on the table, Roosevelt's regret now has a little blue intestine! What's this TM?

He even understood what Simpson said when talking about the Bavarian prince. The prince's view on some issues was terrible, like a prophet! Almost everything he expected was fulfilled in the near future.

At this moment, Roosevelt's mind once again saw the scene when he was about to visit the prince. The prince pointed to the Far East region on the distant map with his hand, then drew a big circle, and said with a strange smile: "You will regret making today's decision, and the door to the Far East may close soon!" And now this situation is gradually turning into reality!
