"Gentlemen, the Island Nation Navy's main force has appeared. Our military base in the Caroline Islands has been destroyed by the Island Nation forces. It seems the Army's fierce offensive has frightened them. The Island Nation Navy has emerged at this moment for no other reason than to salvage the situation in the South Seas. Then let us seize this opportunity and wipe out the Island Nation Navy in one fell swoop! It will also clear the obstacles for our assault on the Island Nation's Mainland." Marshal Rolf Kars said.
The German Navy officers attending the meeting all wore smiles.
The German Navy had two main objectives in this battle. One was to assist the Army in eliminating the Island Nation's Army entrenched in the South Seas. The other was to destroy the Island Nation Navy and prepare for the attack on the Island Nation's Mainland.
Supporting the Army's operations could be handled by the capital ship formations of the Pacific Fleet and Indian Ocean Fleet. The Atlantic Fleet, along with the aircraft carrier formations of the Pacific Fleet and Indian Ocean Fleet, had set their sights on the Island Nation Navy. Now that the Island Nation Navy had revealed itself, it had undoubtedly given them an opportunity.
"Your Excellency, the Island Nation Navy is not weak either. Eight capital ships and twenty-one aircraft carriers make it unquestionably the world's most powerful navy after the Imperial Navy," said Lieutenant General Wilhelm Canaris, commander of the Pacific Fleet's aircraft carrier formation.
Marshal Rolf Kars nodded. "The Island Nation Navy is indeed strong, but the Imperial Navy holds even greater advantages. I believe the Imperial Navy will certainly win this battle."
The other officers nodded repeatedly, all agreeing with Marshal Rolf Kars's view.
Afterward, the German Navy officers discussed their battle plan.
