The results of the Southwest Fanyan Ocean Naval Battle exceeded everyone's expectations.

As early as February 1, the Newland Navy sent 4 light cruisers and 8 destroyers to Perth to form the Fanyanyang squadron.

Subsequently, several ocean-going submarines were sent to Perth.

However, due to the limitations of logistics support, it is difficult for the Newland Navy to do much in the direction of Fanyan Ocean, and at most, submarines are sent to carry out missions for breaking the order.

As for deploying cruisers and destroyers to Perth, it is mainly to deal with the threat from the Imperial submarines.

What to say is worth paying attention to is Newland's Air Force.

On the last day of January, the Newland Army deployed a strategic air force to Port Hedland and Derby, and also carried out its first round of missions on the same day.

It’s not about bombing Shiquan City, it’s about blasting mines in Xunfeng Strait and Longyan Strait.

At that time, the Imperial Army was not very clear about the purpose of the deployment of long-range bombers to the western region of Austria, and believed that the B-17s were used to search and attack Imperial ships operating in the Fanyan Ocean and the Yanhai Sea in the Northeast, or to serve submarines that carried out missions.

It was not until February 3 that a cargo ship heading to Badong Port on Sumatra was sunk by mines in the Xunfeng Strait that the Imperial Navy realized the seriousness of the problem.

In just a few days, those B-17s dropped hundreds of water mines in the Xunfeng Strait.

The key is that most of it is the bottom thunder.

Although these mines are not very powerful and cannot sank the main battleship, they pose a huge threat to passing ships and are extremely difficult to eliminate.

The result was that the Imperial Navy had to forbid ships from going to Xunfeng Strait and Longmu Strait.

Fortunately, the B-17's voyage was not far enough to be mined into the Shiquan Strait, so the Imperial Navy's ships were able to enter and exit the Fanyan Ocean from the Throat Channel.

It is precisely because the 11th Special Mixed Fleet returned from the Throat Channel and did not go to the closer Xunfeng Channel.

In response to the long-range aviation troops deployed by the Newland Army Aviation in the western region of Austria, the Imperial Army Aviation made corresponding arrangements.

Now, the main thing is to deploy long-range fighter jets in Shiquan City.

After the operation in Sri Lanka is over, the army will open new military bases on Java Island or an island in southern Java Sea, deploy long-range aviation troops, bomb ports and airports in northern and western regions of Austria, and ensure that the route to Fanyan Ocean is unobstructed.

However, there is no plan to attack the Austrian country for the time being.

The reason is also very simple. Even if you want to attack Austria's mainland, you will directly march into the eastern or southeastern regions, rather than landing in the northern and western regions.

The Austrian country, that is, the continent of Austria, has a core area where its population is located in the southeast, and almost all other places are deserts.

The key is that there is no road running through the entire continent of Austria, let alone a railway that must be relied on on the ground attack.

Not to mention anything else, the Newland army transports troops and supplies to Perth and other places by sea.

It can be seen that even if the Imperial army can land in the western or northern part of the Austrian continent, it will take huge resources and a lot of time to march to the eastern region.

Judging from the investment, it is better to directly attack the eastern part of the Austrian continent by sea.

In Lian Xusheng's words, because the hinterland of Austria is full of deserts, even if you have to build roads, you can't find a place to stay.

In fact, this is also the main reason why the Newland army is unwilling to invest heavily in Fanyanyang.

According to the estimates of the Sixth Institution, with the capacity of Perth Port and the maritime power that Newland Federation can invest, the Newland Navy can only maintain 15 to 20 submarines in this direction. Under normal circumstances, it can maintain up to 5 ocean-going submarines on the Fanyan Ocean.

Of course, whether to attack Austria is actually an unknown.

After joining the 11.3rd team, Bai Zhizhan received the top secret information sent by the sixth bureau.

According to the current situation, especially after the difficulty of entering Poshawan has been greatly reduced, doubts about Xue Yuanzheng have disappeared.

The senior leaders of the empire were more inclined to directly attack the Hovay Islands, and first achieved a decisive victory in the Middle East, rather than going to the southwest to fight with the Newland army.

To put it bluntly, it is to completely defeat the Newland Navy while mastering its absolute strategic advantage.

If it can be done, you will have greater confidence in achieving a comprehensive victory.

According to the analysis of the sixth game, if the Hovay Islands can be quickly captured, the Newland Federation may even cause civil unrest due to rapid defeat.

After the Battle of the Southwest Fanyan Ocean, problems arose within the Newland Federation.

A few days ago, the Republican Party, who lost in the general election, had filed a complaint with the Federal Supreme Court, accusing Lofos of his third presidential campaign against the Constitution.

In addition, there was also a problem with the Alliance Group.

Because of a mutiny broke out in Sri Lanka, all the local 30,000 Bran soldiers surrendered, and they suffered a crushing defeat in Shiquan City before, Chur's position in the Prime Minister's Office was already shaky. Even within the ruling party, there were voices asking Chur to resign.

In order to relieve the pressure, Chur also openly claimed that the Newland Navy was responsible for the war in the southwest Fanyan Ocean.

The implication is that he is also a victim.

Although Chul was looking for reasons for himself to consolidate his position in the Prime Minister's Office, he did not consider Lofos's feelings before making a statement.

It is obviously not a wise approach to transfer the contradiction to the Newland Federation.

As a result, Lofos called Eisenway back on February 4, and the Newland Federation suspended the provision of assistance to the Kingdom of Bran without an announcement.

Just yesterday, February 8, the three transport fleets that were supposed to go to the Kingdom of Bran, all moved to the route to the Luosha Federation after leaving the port.

As expected, in the next few months, Newland Federation will make a fuss about aid and give Chul a little color.

According to the predictions of the sixth game, Chur must step down, otherwise he will not be able to end.

The main thing is that when Lofos settles in his third term, the first thing he considers is to integrate the power of the alliance group as soon as possible.

Because the alliance group itself is not as good as the alliance group, especially the Liangxia Empire, and the Newland Federation, as the absolute main force, was the last to join the war, so if we delayed it, we would not immediately integrate the strategic power of the group, and we would still be defeated until the end.

However, these are all off-topic words.

Bai Zhizhan returned victoriously again. After the emperor of the Empire expressed concern, Xue Yuanzheng made arrangements personally and asked Liu Changxun to mobilize dozens of transport planes to send the families of the main officers and the families of the meritorious soldiers under the Xiaochang Princess to Shiquan City to welcome the soldiers who returned triumphantly.

To this end, the Navy also arranged the celebration meeting in Shiquan City.

Because the damage to the "Longjiang" is not serious and can be repaired in Shiquan City, the 11th Special Mixed Fleet stays here for the time being.

After the senior management makes a decision on the strategic offensive, they will decide where to send the 11th Special Mixed Fleet.

During his stay in Shiquan City, he said that he wanted to conduct joint training with the newly established Tsuman Far East Fleet, which was actually to allow the fleet officers and soldiers to relax and rest.

Everyone knows that it will be even more difficult whether it is to return to the East Ocean or continue to fight on the Fanyan Ocean.

Of course, the key is the celebration.
