Previously, in private occasions, Su Xiong made similar requests to Benson. Although Benson did not agree at the time, he also explained patiently. But today, in the US Navy Joint Conference, Su Xiong once again made a public request to have higher autonomy, which is not aimed at Benson personally, but distrust of the entire US Navy system! Benson couldn't bear this, and the people were disbanded and the team was difficult to lead......

"About your suggestions..." Benson took a deep breath, his anger began to soar, ready to use his ultimate move at any time!

"In fact, if the main fleet has not been confirmed to have encountered the main fleet of the Japanese army, I think it is appropriate to give General Su Xiong greater command. We do not lack reconnaissance fleet, nor do we lack a vanguard fleet. It is a good choice for us to have a fast fleet with rich experience and can act independently." At this moment, Sims, who had not spoken much, suddenly said, directly interrupting Benson's ultimate move!

"Hold the grass! Is this the so-called back prick?" Benson looked at the other party in shock, and suffered a huge psychological injury! It seemed that this person was not a colleague who was working with him, but a stranger!

"Don't blame me, I'm also for victory." Sims' eyes conveyed this meaning. To be honest, in the entire US Navy, only Majiphin and Sims are the two people who have real so-called practical experience. Sims has seen the reaction and efficiency of the German Navy in the war. Moreover, he did not think that Su Xiong's actions would have the intention to challenge Benson's authority. It is very simple to be willing. Even in the final decisive battle, even if the high-powered Crown Prince Ruprecht took the battle personally, Earl Spey, as a partial division, still has great autonomy. When the situation of the war becomes responsible, the general who stands alone must have his own judgment rather than can only follow the baton of the supreme commander.

This has been learned in history. For example, in the famous Battle of Waterloo, when the French marshal Grouch, as the French marshal, received Napoleon's order to pursue the Prussian army, he stuck to the order despite the emperor's battle to determine the fate of the world with the British army! As a result, when Napoleon and Wellington were fighting fiercely, he took one-third of the French army to wander around the open space. Then the tragedy happened. The Prussian army led by Blüchel left Grouch and appeared on the battlefield when the French army was at its weakest! So, Napoleon decisively fought gg.

Sims definitely did not make a temporary decision. In fact, he had known for a long time that Su Xiong did not trust the top US military in tactical terms... But compared to Earl Spee, it was already very good. When he was with him, the latter not only distrusts the US military tactical terms, but also distrusts the training level. The only thing that satisfies the Earl was that the equipment of the US military was really good, especially fire control and water sound equipment.

However, for this kind of distrust, Sims' choice is to face reality. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. War is a serious issue, not just what you think is OK. So Sims considered whether he could really give Su Xiong greater autonomy.

In the view of the senior US military, Su Xiong's fleet is actually equivalent to the Hippel fleet during the North Sea War. Its main task is to reconnaise, deal with the opponent's reconnaissance fleet, and at the same time use high-speed performance to complete specific tactical actions during the battle! For example, suppressing the opponent's position, or as a sandbag...

When the British and German battles, the High Seas Fleet positioned the Spee Fleet in this way. However, when we arrived at the US Navy, we almost copied this system. Benson had a very good reason. This was what the British and German Navy did back then, and there was no problem with the US military. We are in line with the international community!

However, at this time, Sims, who had been studying abroad in Germany, showed his value. Sims, who had been involved in actual combat, found that the situation was wrong after a long period of research. He felt that at least in bad weather, it was very meaningful to have the Su Xiong fleet as the avant-garde of the entire American fleet.

First of all, as a strong fleet, especially a strong fleet that fights at home, the US fleet's ability to obtain information is definitely better than the Japanese fleet without considering the quality of the personnel. This is the home court of the US Navy, and the US Navy has at least three times the number of auxiliary warships that exceeds the Japanese Navy!

Without aviation reconnaissance and everyone depends on two eyes to see it, the US fleet is definitely better than the Japanese in terms of intelligence gaining convenience. At least, if there is no serious error in judgment, the US fleet should first discover the Japanese fleet. Of course, this situation will definitely not apply to US military ships stationed at temporary anchorages. After all, the latter's position is fixed, and the Japanese must know where it is. There are many such anchorages, and the Americans will not know which anchorage the Japanese will attack. This intelligence advantage should be limited to the main fleet, and the Japanese have the advantage of first move.

Based on this judgment, forcing the German fleet to be with him is actually limited in meaning. Even if the Americans think, the reconnaissance destroyer first discovered the Japanese fleet, and then the German fleet decisively bit it. What will happen? Four Bavaria faced 10 Japanese fast warships, including 6 Fusang... Not to mention anything else, even Sims himself would not let Su Xiong rush to the scene without guaranteeing that the main American fleet could arrive quickly. After all, this is selling teammates! With the support of the British, the Japanese's armor-piercing shells are not bad, and 60 15-inch guns and 32 14-inch guns. Even if Bavaria is as strong as Bavaria, he will never dare to face it directly with 4 warships.

When the High Seas Fleet uses Hippel Fleet, either Hippel will take the lead and the subsequent main fleet can immediately follow up, with continuous output chains, starting a team to control the battlefield situation, and then the subsequent main force output, the whole rhythm is very smooth. So, now that we are in the US fleet, you must know that the speed difference between the US fleet and the Suxiong Fleet is 6 knots! The result is that when the team starts, Suxiong goes up, either the Japanese fleet will immediately whip up, or beat Suxiong first, and then the US fleet does not follow up... and another situation is that Hippel has strong resistance to pressure in the last battle and bites Thomas. And this situation does not exist in this naval battle. If the US and German fleets are all here, will the Japanese stay and wait for death?

So from the above situation, the significance of letting Su Xiong fleet accompany the US fleet is actually relatively limited. The German fleet is not large enough and cannot rely on its own strength to bite the opponent, but the US fleet cannot keep up!
