When the naval battle between the U.S. fleet and the German navy in the Azores came to an end, it was alreadyte at night in Washington. However, the Oval Office of the President in the White House is still brightly lit. President Woodrow Wilson, Secretary of State Bryan, Secretary of the Navy Daniels, Secretary of War Harrison, Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo and others all gathered here.


    Admiral Henry Mayo had already reported to the country before leading the fleet to attack the German Navy''s Antic Fleet. Secretary Daniels, approved his battle n. At the same time, the U.S. Navy Department also regarded Admiral Henry Mayo''s attack as a key battle to reverse the situation and defeat the German Navy. He is even optimistic that if the U.S. fleet can deal with the German Navy''s Antic Fleet unscathed, and then severely damage or even wipe out the German Navy''s home fleet at a rtively small cost, then there will be a fundamental change in the naval power of the two countries. Change.


    Although, the German Navy still has three fleets with more than 20 capital ships. However, the German navy is going to be distributed all over the world, and Germany needs to invest in several capital ships in the Western Pacific alone. As the naval power of the ind nation bes stronger and stronger, Germany will invest more power. In this case, the United States will be able to gain an advantage in the Antic Ocean.


    However, this is always the optimistic analysis of Minister Daniels. In fact, the battle situation will definitely not be as smooth as he said. If the German navy was so invulnerable, then it would have been impossible for them to defeat the British Royal Navy and dominate the world.


    "Your Excellency, gentlemen. A naval battle often takes a day or even longer to decide the oue. Therefore, I am afraid we will have to board for a while. I know that the German navy is very powerful, but, Our navy is also different from before. This time, we still have a good chance of winning. After all, we have 11 capital ships, four of which are equipped with 406mm main guns." Minister Daniels looked at the The atmosphere was a little dignified, so he said.


    Minister Garrison nodded: "Although the Germans are strong, we are not weak. Moreover, their luck will not always be so good. God will not always be on their side."


    "Yes, gentlemen, I am very happy that you have the confidence to defeat the Germans. I also firmly believe that our brave boys will definitely be able to defeat the Germans. The future world will definitely not be dominated by the Germans all the time down," said President Woodrow Wilson.


    "If we can defeat the Germans this time, it will undoubtedly give hope to other countries. By then, more countries will join in the counterattack against the Germans. In the future, the evil Germans will definitely Will be defeated!" Brian also said.


    The current internationalmunity is forced by Germany''s strong military power. Except for a few countries, other countries simply have no courage to confront Germany. But if the U.S. Navy can defeat the German Navy, this will undoubtedly open a new door for them. By then, more countries will definitely join in. In that case, no matter how strong Germany is, it will only fail in the end.


    For a while, the atmosphere in the office became less dignified. They all thought optimistically that the possibility of the U.S. Navy''s victory this time is undoubtedly there, and it seems not small. In this case, it is undoubtedly the best result for the United States.


    "Report! Urgent battle report!" Suddenly, a voice sounded outside the office.


    Suddenly, the atmosphere in the office suddenly became dignified again. All the optimism I had before was gone. After all, this is almost rted to the national destiny of the United States, how can they not be nervous?


    "How''s the situation?" President Woodrow Wilson''s voice trembled a little.


    "President...Your Excellency, we have failed!" said the officer.


    The senior American officials in the office all of a sudden sat back on the sofapletely decadent. Their faces were full of frustration and disappointment. Minister Daniels, in particr, looked pale. Before, he kept saying that the U.S. Navy had hope of winning. But now, he was pped in the face again.


    After a few minutes, President Woodrow Wilson spoke.


    "What is the specific situation?" President Woodrow Wilson asked.


    "Your Excellency, all of this is a trap aimed at us by the Germans. General Henry Mayo led the fleet to attack the German Navy''s Antic Fleet, but was besieged by the carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy''s aircraft carrier. Hundreds of ships Our fleet was submerged with bombs and torpedoes. Half of the capital ships were sunk, and most of the rest were wounded. The Antic Fleet of the German Navyunched an attack. As a result, all our capital ships were destroyed. Most of the other warships were also sunk." The officer said with a sad face.


    "God! The Germans actually dispatched their aircraft carrier, no wonder we will lose so badly this time." Minister Garrison said.


    The aircraft carriers of the German Navy showed strongbat effectiveness in thest world war. However, in the subsequent battle where the German Navy wiped out the Austro-Hungarian Navy, the aircraft carrier did not show up. Now it seems that the aircraft carrier of the German Navy is obviously stronger.


    Minister Daniels'' face was disastrous. His hands were tightly clenched into fists, and even his knuckles turned white because of too much force.


    "Your Excellency, this is our negligence. We did not pay attention to the actions of the German aircraft carrier, which led to this failure. I am willing to resign as the Secretary of the Navy." Minister Daniels said.


    President Woodrow Wilson shook his head: "Minister Daniels, this is not your fault. Since the Germans dispatched their aircraft carrier, it means that they are determined to win this battle. No matter how much we No matter how careful you are, you will definitely fail this time. However, the loss may not be so great."


    Indeed, as President Woodrow Wilson said, Germany dispatched an aircraft carrier, which also showed Germany''s determination. No matter how hard the U.S. fleet works, it is simply impossible to win with such arge gap in strength. At most, to reduce some losses.


    President Woodrow Wilson was very depressed. The heavy loss this time made the U.S. Navy once again impoverished.
