The Americans have very high ability to plan industrial and war equipment. Take destroyers as an example. In less than a year, the Americans completed more than 100 Waikis destroyers! What is this? In terms of tonnage, the number of destroyers added by the Americans in a year can fully support the establishment of destroyers of two high seas fleets! Don’t forget that although the German Navy has more than 2,000 tons of destroyers, most of them are around 1,000 tons, or even lower.

What about the American standard battleships? Starting from Nevada, to later New Mexico, Tennessee, and even the Maryland-class battleships being built with 16-inch guns were actually modified from the same mold! To a certain extent, it is also a standardization. This standardization is naturally convenient for maintenance, maintenance and combat use. For example, the ship types are similar, so the maneuver is easier to be uniform.

As for the history of World War II? Whether it is the Essex-class aircraft carrier, the Independent-class light aircraft carrier, the Fleche-class destroyer, the Freewheeler, these weapons are still somewhat flawed in technical terms, but there is no doubt that these warships are very suitable for production! The Americans spent 19 months building an aircraft carrier and completing a Freewheeler in a week. This is not only the strength of the US industry, but also the extremely suitable design for large-scale production.

(What do you say that Americans equip almost all aircraft with 50 machine guns is also a model of industrialization? Sorry, this is really a brain problem... The power of the 50 machine gun is still a bit worse for the 2nd aircraft. As for the F86 still using 50 machine guns, it is a brainless person...)

"Who is the commander of this American fleet?" asked Earl Spee.

"It is said to be Major General Sims. He has served as the commander of the battleship fleet and has also visited the High Seas Fleet. He is a backbone member of the U.S. Navy General. As for the level, it seems to be OK?" said Count Lukner. "But we don't have to worry. According to the telegram, the converged fleet is completely commanded by you. In addition to the use of aviation power, they will completely obey your orders."

"Then let's do this. How are we doing to cross the Strait of Gibraltar this time?" asked Earl Spee.

"All warships have been prepared. In order to prevent mine contact, we have also added cork and foam cement to the empty compartment of the watertight compartment to prevent water inflow. The channel has been tested several times. The air force deployed in French Morocco is also monitoring the British fleet at the Gibraltar Fortress. According to their reports, there are no main ships inside the fortress, and all auxiliary ships have been sunk or blocked into the port by airdrop mines. At the same time, there are no traces of submarines found in the straits. The British seem to have given up." Earl Lukner reported.

"This is not good news," said Earl Spee: "The British will definitely not let us go back easily. If they do not set up a blockade in Gibraltar, they will definitely be sure to stop us in the North Sea or Norwegian Sea, and the British will definitely think that the high seas fleet will respond."

"According to the intelligence at the headquarters, the British seemed to have restored the North Sea blockade and redeployed a large number of aviation forces in the Orkney and Shetland Islands. We may have to fight with the large fleet in the combat radius of the British land-based aviation forces," said Count Lukner.

"His Crown Prince has made arrangements, and he will solve this problem before we go back. Just do our own business." Some things are not known to anyone in the Mediterranean Fleet except Earl Spey. So the Earl doesn't have much to say.

At the same time, in the port of Havana, Cuba, thousands of miles away from the Mediterranean, Major General Sims, who was preparing to set out for Europe, met a special guest here. This person had also had his own glory and his own helplessness. He had served two fleets, but compared with those admirals who worked hard and achieved the final victory, his journey was a little sad. It was not that he was not dedicated or that he had limited abilities, but that his luck was a bit miserable, and this person was Majiphin, the current U.S. Rear Admiral.

As one of the few people in the entire US Navy who have experienced large-scale naval battles and have lived to this day, even though Majiffen's record is rather tragic, he still has a great say in the navy. Sometimes losing is also a kind of qualification. He is much better than a rookie who has not experienced a big battle, and Sims obviously belongs to the latter!

So, when facing the US Navy's "10,000-year major general", Sims did not feel a little arrogant. He was even a little ashamed, because, just yesterday, Majiphin and Sims, as special envoy of the Admiralty, watched the bomb-dropping act of the aircraft carrier carrier aircraft squad. How could it be said that the effect was very unsatisfactory. They were even jokingly called "monkey throwing grenades" by a accompanying government official below!

However, except for these things, we can't blame Sims all. After all, if the Germans were pioneers, they prepared before the war, the British were followers, and they began to study it shortly after the war began. Then the Americans were undoubtedly lagging behind. Before the Americans did these, both Britain and Germany had already experienced large-scale actual combat, but what about the Americans? In addition to the exercise field, there were only simulations on the ground. The time and heavy tasks were heavy, and whether the time travelers were cheating, the Americans had achieved good results so far. However, unfortunately, war is a honest problem, and if it doesn't work, it doesn't work.

"What advice do you have for this action?" After a brief greeting, Sims decisively chose to get to the point.

"Listen more and express your opinions less, and do what you can do." Majifen said.

"Do what you can do?" Sims asked. He knew very well about the first half of the sentence that the highest commander of the U.S.-German joint fleet this time was a German, so he naturally had to obey the orders. As for the second half, he was a little confused.

"From the simulated air combat between us and the German pilots, our young men are quite qualified in air combat and reconnaissance. So, this time, you can do a good job in air defense. We must avoid the matter of attacking seas as much as possible." Majifen said.

"What if the Germans asked our carrier-based aircraft to attack the British fleet?" Sims said with some displeasure.

"First, the Germans should not make similar requests. Second, if they make them, then you can refuse politely. Well, that's it." Majifen said.
