The Newland Federation dispatched more than one hundred cargo ships.

In late August, the day the 41st Special Mix Fleet returned from the war zone, two aircraft carriers in Zhenbao Port started anchoring and departing, and then the "Entertainment" that rested at the Port of Yoton also quietly went out to sea. By early September, two fleet aircraft carriers deployed on the west coast of Newland also left the port.

Now, all five fleet aircraft carriers of the Newland Navy are active at sea!

The key is that it is the five aircraft carrier battle group.

Each aircraft carrier is directly covered by two heavy cruisers, and at least two light cruisers and four destroyers are accompanied by escort.

If you want to say it, it is just a shortage of the fast battleship.

There is nothing strange about it. The two North Carolina classes of the Newland Navy were equipped on the docks, and the four Nanda classes were still built on the ship platform. There are no fast battleships that can follow the aircraft carriers for the time being, so they can only use heavy cruisers to provide cover for the aircraft carriers.

This is also the biggest shortcoming of the Newland Navy.

Because there were too many debts in the early stage, I actually wanted to pull the Liangxia Empire into the water before the "Huacheng Treaty" and the "Luntai Treaty" were abolished. That is, if the Naoyi Empire did not participate, the treaty was renewed for five years. As a result, the Liangxia Empire was not trapped and took itself into vain. Therefore, it was not until the Newland Federation that the Newland Federation began to build the post-treatment rapid battleship, and the construction time of the first two ships was about one year later than the "Xuhai" class. Next, due to various problems, the construction speed of the two "North Carolina" class has been tepid.

To be said, this is also the key to the fact that the Newland Federation has not participated in the war for a long time.

When the war broke out, the Newland Navy did not have a decent air defense warship!

The aircraft carrier war between Yanhai and South Zhuhai has proved that air defense warships have great value and can even determine the life and death of aircraft carriers at critical moments.

It is precisely this that the Newland Navy sent ten latest treaty heavy cruisers back to the shipyard in one go, and carried out the largest modernization improvement after entering service. The only focus is to enhance air defense combat effectiveness by replacing secondary guns and installing machine guns.

It must be admitted that Newland Federation does have strong industrial strength and shipbuilding capabilities.

The fruitful results of the new policy in the six years of implementation have also played a role in the development of the West Coast region.

Six of the ten heavy cruisers were improved at three shipyards on the West Coast, and only four returned to the East Coast area.

Otherwise, it would not be possible to complete it in just a few months.

Four "New Ao" class ships that went to the east coast to renovate will return to the east through the Wangxi Canal at the end of August and are expected to arrive at Zhenbao Port in early September.

The anti-aircraft combat effectiveness of heavy cruisers is definitely not as good as that of fast battleships, but the deck area is much smaller and there is no way to install many anti-aircraft guns. Almost all treaty heavy cruisers, especially those built in the early stages of the treaty, have not reserved the redundant displacement required for modification in order to ensure the use of the largest caliber main gun, so it is impossible to replace the powerful anti-aircraft guns in the later transformation.

But, it's better than nothing.

It was only after these ten heavy cruisers were in place that the Newland Navy's aircraft carrier combat group had begun to take shape.

These few months have also been crucial to the Newland Navy's carrier-based aviation.

Although there are still many unsatisfactory aspects, such as the lack of high-performance fighter jets, as a bystander, the Newland Navy at least knows how to fight a naval battle with aircraft carriers and carrier-based aviation as the core, and knows which direction to work in order to win.

What's more, there were officers from the Navy Navy who appeared to speak out.

According to the information provided by the Sixth Bureau, in the past six months, the Nai Navy used submarines to send a large number of officers with practical experience, represented by Tian Shi, to the Newland Federation.

They are now tactical consultants for the Newland Navy!

All in all, by September, the five fleet aircraft carriers of the Newland Navy were in their best condition and could maintain this condition for three months.

It was based on this that the sixth innings concluded that the Newland Federation was about to join the war.

There must be more than five aircraft carriers to pay attention to, and there are also the Viagra Fleet, which is mainly deployed in Zhenbao Port with ten former treaty battleships.

The key is that these ten former treaty battleships are already preparing for departure.

Because it is deployed in Zhenbao Port, it does not need to leave the port immediately. Even if it is a few days later, it can still be in front of the aircraft carrier battle group.

Although the maximum speed of these battleships is not fast enough, the cruise speed is not slow at all and has a very amazing endurance.

Judging from the purpose of combat, these ten battleships are likely to be sent to cover the transport fleet.

To put it bluntly, it is to attract firepower from the front.

Another issue is involved here.

The Imperial Navy has no warship to fight against!

Nine of the twelve old battleships originally belonged to the Southern Fleet have been salvaged, but they are all repaired in the port.

It is optimistic that it will take at least three years to repair it.

Those who can be dispatched are four "Longxing" class ships originally belonged to the local fleet and are now organized in the Fourth Fleet.

Of course, the Imperial Navy is not without battleships.

There are four old and two new ones, a total of six fast battleships.

If you count the six fast battleships, there are exactly ten in total.

In fact, this just shows the problem.

Why did the Newland Navy deploy ten battleships in the Viagra?

It was clearly for the Imperial Navy.

To put it bluntly, if the Newland Navy's ten European battleships escort the fleet, should the Imperial Navy send a fleet dominated by battleships to intercept?

If necessary, how many battleships should be dispatched?

Only four "Longxing"-level ships were dispatched, so if they really fought, they would definitely die without a burial place.

If you use six fast battleships, you can only use heavy cruisers to provide air defense cover for aircraft carriers.

In this way, the air defense combat effectiveness of the aircraft carrier battle group will inevitably be greatly reduced.

The air defense combat effectiveness is not strong enough. In the battle between four and five, how likely is the Imperial Navy to win?

The key is that the Newland Navy occupies the main attack position, while the Imperial Navy is the main defense.

The initiative to fight or not, and how to fight is in the hands of the Newland Navy!

Without initiative, no military strength, and insufficient ability to resist strikes, is there still a chance of winning this battle?

If the Newland Navy's Viagra fleet comes out in full swing, and all ten battleships and five aircraft carriers come, the Imperial Navy will be very passive.

At that time, it would be nice to stop the Newland fleet from going to the Nayi Empire.

If the opponent's commander is not bad, the Imperial Navy may be in danger.

If you really need to start from a tactical perspective, you must choose to take the initiative.

Unfortunately, this is absolutely impossible.

At this point, Xue Yuanzheng did not let the naval general led by Liu Changxun give an answer immediately, giving Bai Zhizhan and others more time.

What is discussed next has nothing to do with the Navy.

After the Newland Federation officially joined the war and declared war directly on the Liangxia Empire, the Bran Kingdom would definitely declare war on the Liangxia Empire.

How to deal with the threats and challenges of the Kingdom of Bran?

Because the navy must concentrate its forces to deal with the Newland Navy, even if it wins a great victory, it will not be able to send a fleet to Fanyan Ocean until next year. Therefore, in the next few months, in the early stages of the war with the Bran Kingdom, Fanyan Ocean will have to rely on the army to take charge of the direction of Fanyan Ocean.

The implication is that should we consider entering Vanluo and opening up a second battlefield in the direction of the Gangaro Plain?
