There are many claims in history. Some said that the island nation’s balloon bombs were useless and did not cause harm to the United States. It was a failed combat plan. Others said that it was because the United States strictly sealed the news and made the islanders think that their actions were not. It worked, but in the end it was gone.
In short, now that the island nation has this idea, Cyric definitely wants to support it to the end. You don't need to spend any money, just stand by and shout.
Look, hundreds of people died there, balloon bombs, mighty! Let the island nations throw at the United States vigorously, so that the United States will definitely panic, even if it is a psychological warfare, this is also successful.
Cyric responded calmly to these emergencies, and then Cyric focused his attention on the recent military operations.
Operation Ice, the first step, to occupy Greenland.
No matter how smooth Mexico’s operations are, Greenland will also be occupied. The Americans can take off bombers to bomb Europe at any time when they are here. Instead of waiting for interception every day, it is better to kill their bases directly. Offense is the best defense. The sentence is absolutely correct.
Most of the inland of Greenland is covered with snow all year round and is off the beaten track. There is no value there. Only some coastal ports near the south are valuable.
Among them, the most important is the capital Nuuk.
Nuuk is the largest port city on Greenland and the seat of the local administrative district government. A quarter of the population of the entire island lives here. At the same time, in Danish and Norwegian, it is also called Gothab, which means good hope.
Nuuk faces Canada and is affected by warm currents. The sea near the winter does not freeze and is suitable for the development of fisheries, but it is not suitable for the development of agriculture due to the influence of temperature. This is a good place to observe the aurora. In winter, against the white snow, it is very beautiful and attracts countless explorers and tourists.
The German attack on Greenland also began in Nuuk.
Now, the battle plan formulated by the navy department has been placed in front of Cyric.
On the whole, it can be said to be a replica of the Icelandic landing war. There are landing ships, hovercraft, helicopters, etc., and the establishment of beachheads and vertical landings are integrated. It is completely an example of modern landing wars in later generations. From the overall plan, there is nothing. What's wrong.
"Iceland is still too small. If we only rely on the help of the Icelandic air force, it won't work. So this time, we plan to dispatch six offensive aircraft carriers to seize air superiority and ensure our landings are carried out normally." Commander Raidel said.
Now, the German Navy is the most powerful navy of this era. It is enough to make all the enemies frightened. Not to mention, the number of attack aircraft carriers alone exceeds ten. The more advanced Moscow-class aircraft carriers will soon Equip troops.
This operation, using six ships, can not only ensure that there are sufficient carrier-based aircraft to seize air superiority, guard against any enemy coming from Canada, but also show off the imperial navy's force. Raidel wanted to do this long ago.
In addition to six offensive aircraft carriers, there are more than 20 Goethe-class aircraft carriers, and hundreds of amphibious landing ships. This is almost a preview of a cross-sea landing in the United States. Even if it is directly landing on the west coast of the United States, they also have Adequate grasp.
Cyric nodded: "Our biggest threat is the opponent’s land-based fighter jets, Nuuk’s position, which is not good for us. In particular, the Americans have been looking for opportunities to destroy our naval power and the imperial navy. You cannot suffer heavy losses in naval battles, you must be cautious."
This is different from Iceland. When they captured Iceland, the Americans did not react at all, and Iceland was taken down. Now, the Americans are ready to fight.
Although the imperial navy was large in scale, it could not withstand attrition. As long as a naval battle was hit hard, it was likely to languish in the future.
Raidel nodded: "In this operation, we also transferred some French warships to form a joint fleet with us."
Cyric was very satisfied. In the recent wars in Europe, France hardly performed decently. It did not send troops into the Soviet Union. Now, it is about to fight naval battles. When France surrendered, the navy was still a complete navy and had to follow. Come out for an activity.
"I am generally satisfied with this combat report, but we still have one last key issue to be resolved before conducting combat operations." Cyric said.
When Cyric said so, Redlton held his breath, took out his pen, and waited for Cyric's instructions.
"Meteorological conditions, whether we can win this battle or not, weather conditions are the key. If our fleet passes by and our carrier-based aircraft cannot take off because of the bad weather, then we will fail."
"We have weather reconnaissance planes." Raidel said.
The climate of the Arctic is complex and changeable. Most of Greenland is in the Arctic. The meteorological conditions are more important~EbookFREE.me~ Meteorological airplanes are not enough. We must send personnel to the north of Greenland to obtain First-hand meteorological data. Cyric continued: "After our weather crew sends a definite message from the north of Greenland, it is the time for the fleet to be dispatched. "
This matter should have been prepared long ago, and Cyric had forgotten such an important premise in his busy schedule. Fortunately, it is not too late to think of it.
Cyric also has a feeling of fear. The carefully planned action plan must take into account every precondition.
Weather information is very important for war decision-making. When will the group army on the front line of the swamp launch an offensive; when will the divisions on the other side of the strait land; will the troops mobilized to another front by railroad next week be affected by the snowstorm; whether a certain convoy can use the cover of bad weather to cross the Arctic Ocean ...These decisions require reliable long-term weather forecasts as a reference.
For Greenland, the weather is even more important. Most areas here are close to the North Pole. The weather in the North Pole is notoriously changeable. If there is a strong wind of level 12, the mighty fleet is possible. Will be killed, this is Tianwei.
The battlefield of World War II stretched to a few kilometers from the North Pole. There is no territorial contention here. Rather, the competition is for control of intelligence.
The Arctic region from Novaya Zemlya to Greenland is the largest cold source of the northern hemisphere climate, and has a significant impact on the western hemisphere climate north of the equator. Almost all cold cyclones sweeping across the North American continent and Europe are produced here.
In simple terms, the weather in Greenland is the weather in Western Europe and the North Atlantic two days later; the weather in Spitsbergen is the weather in the European continent three days later. 8) For more wonderful novels, welcome to visit everyone's reading academy
