"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, Your Excellency, Minister. The Mediterranean Fleet now consists of only four capital ships and two aircraft carriers. Moreover, the four capital ships are all old battleships that have been in service for more than 20 years. The two aircraft carriers can not carry many carrier-based aircraft, less than seventy in total. The Iron Alliance's naval strength in the Mediterranean is already very strong. The Kingdom of Caesar's navy has four capital ships, two of which are Veneto-class battleships that have just been commissioned. The Third Reich also had two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers in the Mediterranean, acquired from the Gauls. In comparison, our disadvantages are very obvious."Sir Dudley Pound said.

With his strength at a disadvantage, if possible, Sir Dudley Pound undoubtedly wants to avoid a decisive battle with the Iron Alliance Navy as much as possible.

The Royal Navy is already at a low ebb. , even though Sir Dudley Pound is very confident about the future war. However, he and he know that in the future decisive battle, if the Royal Navy wants to win, it will definitely pay a heavy price.

Under such circumstances, the Mediterranean The four capital ships of the fleet are very important to the Royal Navy.

If they are lost now, this will further weaken the strength of the Royal Navy.

"Sir, in terms of the strength of the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet, even the fleets of the Kingdom of Caesar and the Third Reich Navy in the Mediterranean are stronger. But the Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet may also be sure of victory. After all, the sailors of the Royal Navy are not comparable to the Kingdom of Caesar and the Third Reich."Winston said.

Sir Dudley Pound nodded repeatedly:"This is natural! The quality of sailors in the Royal Navy is definitely the best in the world. The Third Reich is absolutely incomparable to us"

"Well, Sir, the Army needs the help of the Royal Navy in the North African battlefield. Otherwise, the Army will most likely lose completely. By then, the losses will be huge. In fact, the Empire on which the sun never sets will directly abandon the entire North Africa. If the Suez Canal also fell into the control of the Third Reich. The consequences are even more disastrous. The empire had to detour around the Cape of Good Hope to mobilize supplies and personnel from its colonies in Asia."Lesley Bertha also said

"What's more, Sir, the 8th Army and the 9th Army chose to fight decisively with the Third Reich North Africa Army and the Kingdom of Caesar's Libyan Army at El Alamein. It was almost outside the combat radius of the air force fighter jets of the Third Reich and the Kingdom of Caesar. Even the fighter planes deployed by the Third Reich in Libya could only stay briefly over Alamein. It will not pose any threat to the fleet at sea. The two aircraft carriers of the Mediterranean Fleet were able to exert their combat effectiveness." Lesley Bertha continued

"Sir, the Royal Navy still has 300 fighter planes in the northern part of the Pharaoh Kingdom. Although most of them are P-39 fighter jets. However, we should be able to secure air superiority."Admiral Friar Ding also said.

Sir Dudley Pound knew that the war situation in Mufei was already very dangerous. If the Mediterranean Fleet did not solve the Kingdom of Caesar and the Navy of the Third Reich, the mainland would be defeated miserably in the North African battlefield.

Just as As Leslie Bertha said, once the army is defeated in the North, the consequences will be very serious. At that time, the Empire on which the sun never sets will lose all of North Africa and the Middle East. This will also be the case for the overseas colonies of the Empire on which the sun never sets. An unprecedented heavy blow.

Especially when the land in Nanyang has been invaded by the Eastern Empire, and even Tianzhu is threatened. Once North Africa is occupied by the Third Reich, the East Canal will fall into the hands of the Third Reich. into the hands of the Third Reich. If the Middle East falls into the hands of the Third Reich again, Tianzhu may not be able to be saved.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, Excellencies, Ministers, I understand. I will give orders to the Mediterranean fleet and prepare them to fight against the navy of the Kingdom of Caesar and the navy of the Third Reich. However, given the strength of the Mediterranean fleet, they have the right to withdraw from the battle if the war goes wrong. said Sir Dudley Pound

"Your Excellency, we all believe in the fighting capabilities of the Royal Navy. In the last naval battle, the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet easily defeated the Caesar Kingdom Navy. If it hadn't been for the heavy losses caused by the air raids of the Third Reich Air Force, the entire Mediterranean would have fallen into the hands of the empire. Prime Minister Winston said with a smile.

Leslie Bertha and Admiral Friar Dean also expressed their belief that the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet would definitely be able to win.

But Sir Dudley Pound was obviously not as optimistic as they were.

He It is very clear that the enemy the Mediterranean Fleet faces this time will be more powerful. It is understandable how difficult it will be for the Mediterranean Fleet to win with four old battleships.

Of course, there are many uncertainties in naval battles.

If God bless, The Mediterranean Fleet can capture the soul with one shot during the artillery battle, and may easily win the naval battle.

As for the final result, I'm afraid we can only know it after the battle.

In the Mediterranean Sea, the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet is cruising on the sea, surrounded by four A battleship was guarded by numerous cruisers and destroyers. As for the two aircraft carriers, they were operating in waters dozens of kilometers away from the fleet.

The entire eastern Mediterranean sea was already under the control of the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet.

"Telegram from His Excellency the Commander, His Excellency the Lord Admiralty."Rear Admiral Lambert, Chief of Staff of the Mediterranean Fleet, handed the telegram to Lieutenant General George.

Lieutenant General George took the telegram and looked at it, and his expression became serious.

"Man, looks like our vacation has to come to an end. The army is no match for the Third Reich and the Kingdom of Caesar. They want us to help them get rid of the navy of the Third Reich and the Kingdom of Caesar, and then assist them. This is a test for us! Lieutenant General George sighed.

"Your Excellency, Commander, our enemy is not weak. The Kingdom of Caesar has four capital ships, and the Third Reich also has two capital ships. And we only have four."Major General Lamb reminded.

Lieutenant General George nodded:"You are right. However, we have no choice, we cannot disobey the orders of His Excellency the Minister. What's more, the battlefield is in the eastern Mediterranean Sea. We cannot use two aircraft carriers, and we can still get support from the Royal Air Force."_
