Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire
Chapter 345 Wilson's Dilemma
"Sir, the casualties have been counted. We have 34 warships that need to return to Hong Kong for repairs." Liu Yuxi came to Wang Hongchang with a statistical report and said softly to him.
Wang Hongchang nodded when he heard Liu Yuxi's words.
He can still afford this loss. After all, compared with this loss, they have achieved greater results.
There is no longer a single warship on the entire west coast of America. As long as the two European fleets in Malacca and Jakarta are eliminated, the entire Pacific Ocean will belong to the empire.
Now, the main fleet of the John Kingdom has been transferred back to the North Sea to compete with the Hans Empire for control of the North Sea.
This leads to the fact that what stays in South Asia, that is, India, is just an old fleet. The main ships of this fleet are all former Dreadnought-class battleships.
Although these warships cannot be said to be backward, even in some countries, such warships can serve as the main force, allowing some countries to become regional hegemons.
But such a battleship is not enough to face the Dynasty series battleships of the Daxia Empire.
Especially the latest "Tang-class" battleships can be said to be invincible in the face of these former Dreadnought-class battleships.
Although there is currently only one Tang-class battleship, the "Taizong", 60% of the construction of the Taizong's sister ship, the "Gaozong", has been completed. In about 10 months, the "Gaozong" will be launched.
By then, the Daxia Empire, which has two Tang-class battleships, will be the undisputed overlord of the Pacific region.
Therefore, the prospects for Daxia are very bright now.
"Let the damaged warships return to the port alone for repairs. The remaining warships will be divided into two parts and destroy the shipyards on the west coast of America from the north and south directions." Wang Hongchang said to Liu Yuxi in a deep voice.
Now that the first step of the battle plan has been achieved, it is time to execute the second step.
After destroying all the shipyards on the west coast of Millennium, the empire will not have to worry about the Millennium warships within a year or two.
Unless President Wilson of America is willing to mobilize the Atlantic Fleet from the east coast and come over from the Panama Canal.
Let’s not talk about the empire’s next move, which is to destroy the Panama Canal and completely cut off the support path of the Atlantic Fleet on the east coast of Millenia. Let’s just say that Millennium’s warships are now also in the North Sea, cooperating with the John Kingdom to fight for control of the North Sea. The John Empire Are you willing to let him go?
Therefore, no matter what Wilson chooses now, the advantage lies with Daxia.
In the early morning of January 1913, 1, the Yinglong Fleet of the Daxia Empire split into three on Oahu. Some of the damaged warships headed west to return to the port in Daxia for repairs.
The other two units, one headed by the Taizong, sailed north, preparing to attack the shipyards along the way from the north of the west coast of Milicia to the south. The other unit, led by the Qinhuang and Hanzu, attacked from south to north. .
In the next two months, the Great Xia Empire's Yinglong Fleet caused an uproar around the world.
The entire west coast of Milicia was attacked by Yinglong's fleet. This caused all coastal cities on the west coast of America, such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego and other places, to become a scorched earth.
This directly reduced Millikin's industrial production capacity by 40%.
At the same time, because the west coastline was unable to stop the Yinglong fleet, there was also a relief group headed by Edmund who took advantage of the situation and continued to short the financial market of America, which made the capital market of America wail.
Countries are also not optimistic about America's ability to regroup on the west coast, and have begun to badmouth America.
When Lin Yi knew that his fleet was destroying the western coastline of Milicia, Edmund and the others took advantage of the situation and made a lot of money. He could only shake his head helplessly.
Lin Yi is not jealous of Edmund and the others. After all, war is a thing. As long as you win, you can get a lot of money, but Edmund and the others can only count as small money.
What left Lin Yi speechless was not that Edmund and the others were making money, but that Edmund and his group, many of whom were of American nationality, had no regard for their own when the Americans were defeated. Nationality, on the contrary, started to add insult to injury.
I have to say, this Jew is really...
However, if you think about it from another aspect, isn't what Edmund and the others did exactly what they wanted?
The reason why he agreed to Edmund to rebuild the country for them was because he wanted them to disrupt Europe for him and provoke the next war?
Whatever they eat now will make them vomit it out when the time comes.
Thinking of this, Lin Yi felt it didn't matter anymore.
However, Lin Yi thought it didn't matter, but Wilson was in big trouble.
Thomas Woodrow Wilson, the 28th president of America, won the election last year, that is, 1912, and assumed the office of president.
The first thing he did after taking office was to promote the United States to join the Allied Powers and declare war on the Allied Powers.
Originally, he was under great pressure to join the Allied Powers, because before him, although there were presidents who wanted to join the Allied Powers, they did not realize it due to their own domestic isolationism.
Therefore, before Wilson, America had been acting as an arms dealer, delivering supplies to the two major groups.
Again, how much money can you make by selling arms? Only by being on the side of the winner can you make a lot of money. Therefore, in order to be re-elected and become a figure like Lincoln and Washington, Wilson chose to side with the Allied Powers when he saw that the Allies were not as powerful as he imagined and even unsustainable.
When he proposed to Congress that he hoped that America would join the war, with the push of Edmund and other Jews, the bill to change America's isolationism was passed.
As a result, Wilson enthusiastically dispatched [-] soldiers, together with the Atlantic Fleet, to join the European battlefield. At the same time, he ordered the country to convert some civilian factories into military factories, and began to fully support the war, preparing to take everyone to enjoy a wave of war dividends.
Daxia also joined the war, and even joined the Allies. It also conveniently deceived the Americans, completely destroyed Pearl Harbor on Oahu, and swept the entire west coastline.
This exposed Wilson to criticism, and Congress even prepared to impeach him.
If the impeachment is successful by then, he will become the first president to be impeached and removed from office in American history, and will be nailed to the pillar of shame.
Wilson doesn't want this, so he wants to change his current predicament.
The best way to change the current predicament is that he needs a victory. Whether it is the West Coast or the European battlefield, as long as there is a victory led by him, he can stabilize the current situation.
At that time, as long as it can be delayed to the European battlefield, he will be able to mobilize troops and make Daxia pay the due price for what they have done.
