Jagged Germany

"Your Majesty, when we fight against the island country this time, the goal of the operation should be to recover the colonies in Southeast Asia. In this way, we can avoid launching attacks on the island country itself, thereby reducing the casualties of the troops. The current empire is also unable to support more than one battle." A massive expedition of two million troops!" suggested Field Marshal Falkenhayn, Secretary of State for War and Chief of the General Staff.

"Well! In this war, we only need to recover Southeast Asia. Next time, after we have eliminated the other powerful countries one by one, we will attack the mainland of the island country. That time, we must destroy the island country once and for all. Get rid of them!" Qin Tian said.

   "Yes, Your Majesty." Everyone replied. From Qin Tian's words, they could clearly feel Qin Tian's murderous intent towards the island nation, which made them a little strange. Why would His Majesty the Emperor hate the island nation so much? However, they couldn't understand the reason even if they wanted to break their heads. They could only attribute it to the fact that islanders are inherently hateful.

"Your Majesty, the main force of the Imperial Army has been used in the upcoming attack on the British mainland and the battle to wipe out the guerrillas in the eastern territories. Even if you want to send troops to Southeast Asia, there may not be any extra troops. Therefore, I It is suggested that we first send the navy to the Far East to attack the islanders. If we can destroy the navy of the island nation, we may be able to force the island nation to abandon Southeast Asia. In this way, we can get back Southeast Asia at the lowest cost. If the fleet goes on an expedition, the materials consumed will be less It is far inferior to dispatching a huge army." Marshal Earl Tirpitz suggested.

  Qin Tian thought for a while, then nodded. The Imperial Army now has only 12 legions in total. Four regiments were fighting guerrillas in the east, and four regiments were preparing to launch an attack on the British mainland. The other four legions have to be stationed in newly occupied areas such as France and Belgium, and enough troops need to be left in the mainland. Therefore, it is indeed very difficult to transfer the army to Southeast Asia.

"First, the navy forms an expeditionary fleet to destroy the island nation's navy. If it can win and force the island nation to return it to Southeast Asia, that would undoubtedly be the best. If the island nation disagrees, then send the army to attack Southeast Asia. At that time, We may have achieved a breakthrough in our battle against Britain. The battle against the guerrillas in the east is also more favorable to us. Only then will we be able to deploy troops to go on an expedition to Southeast Asia," Qin Tian said.

  Although the size of the German army has reached more than three million. With Germany's population and industrial strength, further mobilization can fully support it. But Qin Tian didn't think it was necessary to mobilize again. Almost all Germans believe that the war is about to end and the empire is about to win the war. If mobilization is carried out at this time, it will definitely cause panic among the people. It will even further cause social unrest. In that case, it is not so good. What's more, the German government has begun to formulate a series of policies, preparing to cancel the wartime system and restore the economy. Once it is mobilized, it will have a great impact on it. That's not a good deal. It is undoubtedly the best thing to be able to finish this war with the existing army.

   "Yes, Your Majesty." Both Marshal Count Tirpitz and Marshal von Falkenhain nodded.

   "Marshal Tirpitz, give me the list of the expedition fleet tomorrow!" Qin Tian said.

   "Yes, Your Majesty." Marshal Earl Tirpitz nodded.

  After the meeting, Qin Tian stared at the corners hanging on the wall. On the east side of the map, there are several islands that look like poop. There is the mainland of the islanders.

   "In another time and space, I can only be an angry youth, and at most I can yell a few words. In this time and space, I will definitely kill you islanders!" Qin Tian swore secretly.

  As long as there is such an opportunity, I believe no Chinese will give up.

  The next day, Marshal Earl Tirpitz met with him, and he brought a list of ships that formed the aid fleet, as well as a candidate for the commander of the expedition fleet.

"Your Majesty, since the four strongest warships in the island nation's navy are all battlecruisers, I suggest that the expedition fleet this time should not draw battleships, and be composed of battlecruisers. To be on the safe side, as for capital ships, I suggest a composition of three 'Makensen-class' battlecruisers, three 'Derfflinger-class' battlecruisers and three 'Moltke-class' battlecruisers. For cruisers, dispatch four 'Kornis' Fort-class light cruisers, two "Wiesbaden-class" light cruisers, two "Pillau-class" light cruisers and two "Glaudenz-class" light cruisers, a total of ten light cruisers. As for destroyers, we The cutting-edge destroyers that will be dispatched this year include 14 V-class destroyers, 7 G-class destroyers and 6 S-class destroyers, a total of 27 destroyers.

  Because it is a long-distance expedition, the fleet will have 8 supply ships and two medical ships to ensure sufficient logistical support for the fleet. "

  Marshal Earl Tirpitz reported to Qin Tian.

  Qin Tian nodded, he has always been very concerned about the navy. From the report of Marshal Count Tirpitz, it can be known that Marshal Count Tirpitz is very concerned about the expedition fleet this time, almost dispatching the most powerful battlecruisers, light cruisers and destroyers . Even though this is a long-distance expedition, the navy of the island country has a local advantage. However, the German Navy still has a very big advantage. As long as there are no accidents, there will be no doubt about winning the final victory.

   "Fleet commander, who is going to be in charge?" Qin Tian asked.

"As for the commander of the fleet, I suggest General Spee to be the commander. He has been the commander of the Far East Fleet before, and he is familiar with the Far East and the Pacific Ocean. It is undoubtedly the most suitable for him to be the commander of the expeditionary force. Already." Qin Tian said.

   "Well, then General Spee will be the commander of the expedition fleet!" Qin Tian approved of this.

"By the way, remind General Spee that if the island nation's navy avoids the war, or if the island nation insists on not surrendering even if we defeat the island nation's navy, then we will need to rely on the fleet to attack the coastal cities of the island nation. We have forced the islanders to agree to our conditions. In that case, a lot of civilian casualties may be caused. If General Spee is unwilling to face such a situation, you can just say that we will reconsider the candidate for the fleet commander." Qin Tian Said.

   "Yes, Your Majesty, I understand!" Marshal Earl Tirpitz nodded.
