After receiving the news, Bai Zhizhan's first idea was to warn Liu Xiangzhen.

But he controlled the urge to send a telegram.

The reason is also very simple. There are no enemy fleets in Lu Xinhai, and at most there are only some submarines of the Royal Bran Navy. As for the threats that need to be worried about, it is mainly the air force deployed in the western part of the Beixuan region. Because the Newland Navy has withdrawn the fleet, and the difficulty of ground transportation is very difficult, the actual threat of the aviation force deployed by the Alliance Group in the Beixuan region is not very large.

The key is that the 31st special fleet is not a separate activity.

Before this, the 32nd Special Mixed Fleet, mainly composed of four small aircraft carriers, had already traveled to Malta and had been operating in the western waters of Lu Xinhai.

If you want to say it, it was that the 32nd Special Mixed Fleet provided air cover, and the Raleigh Navy sent out a fleet with two fast battleships.

It was through a joint operation with the 32nd Special Mixed Fleet that the Raleigh Navy decided to have its own aircraft carrier.

According to the news sent by Liu Xiangzhen, the Raleigh Navy proposed to purchase several active aircraft carriers directly from the Empire, even small aircraft carriers like the 32nd Special Mixed Fleet.

For this matter, the Commander-in-Chief of the Raleigh Navy also found Liu Xiangzhen, as if he thought that as long as Liu Xiangzhen was dealt with, he would be able to obtain the Imperial Navy's aircraft carrier.

Unfortunately, that's far from it.

The Imperial Navy's reply was very direct. During the war, the active aircraft carriers would not be sold to any country, and the same would be true for allies, and they would not accept orders from other countries. If the Raleigh Navy wanted to own an aircraft carrier, they could refer to the Kingdom of Great Giant and the Kingdom of Deman and purchase aircraft carriers from the Empire through aid construction.

Obviously, the Raleigh Navy would definitely not agree to such a proposal.

Not to mention anything else, why are the Kingdom of Great Giant and the Kingdom of Deman compared with the Kingdom of Raleigh?

Although the Gao Ju Kingdom and the Daiman Kingdom are all ally of the Liangxia Empire and are Eastern countries, these two kingdoms are typical agricultural countries. Not to mention industrialization, there are not even a few factories, so they are not qualified to compare with the Raleigh Kingdom, which has achieved industrialization.

The key is that the industrialization level of the Kingdom of Raleigh is not low.

Take the most representative navy as an example. There are only seven countries in the world who can build fast battleships. Among them, the Locke Republic and the Nayi Empire failed to put the fast battleships into service before they were defeated. The Kingdom of Raleigh is one of these seven industrial powers.

If construction becomes the standard, it is still one of the top five.

The Kingdom of Raleigh was the first country among the Western countries to build a fast battleship. The "Vitorio Veneto" was built several months earlier than the "George V" of the Royal Navy of Bran. Before officially joining the war, the Navy of Raleigh was always proud and proud of having the first treaty fast battleship, but it became very arrogant because of this, otherwise there would be no Taranto's tragedy.

The Kingdom of Raleigh did not build aircraft carriers, and the problem was not in industry, but in lack of relevant technology.

To put it bluntly, there is no ability to design fleet aircraft carriers.

In fact, the Kingdom of Raleigh has always lacked the ability to design large warships.

Take the "Vitorio Veneto" class as an example. It has a standard displacement of more than 40,000 tons and an extremely powerful combat power on paper, but its reliability is very poor. Most of the time after its completion, these battleships either lie in the dock for repairs, or wait for repairs outside the dock, or go out for testing after the repair is completed, and the combat readiness rate in the flight time is less than 20%.

Even the "George V" class, which is famous for its many failures, has a combat readiness rate of more than 60%.

If you want to say something, you often mistakenly blame the Raleigh Navy.

It’s not that I dare not come out to fight, but that I can’t come out to fight, because all the absolute main forces of the fleet are stuck.

Of course, the Kingdom of Raleigh also lacks technical equipment like catapults.

The most important thing is actually experience.

From this perspective, the Kingdom of Raleigh asked for help from the Liangxia Empire, and more wanted to enhance its relationship with the Liangxia Empire by purchasing aircraft carriers.

To put it bluntly, it is actually paying protection fees to the Liangxia Empire.

At least that's what the leaders of the Kingdom of Raleigh think.

Unfortunately, the imperial authorities didn't care about this "protection fee" at all, and the navy's reply was not wrong. The empire currently has no extra aircraft carriers.

The arrival of the special-mix fleet gave the Raleigh Navy great courage.

Now, in the Western Land and Heart Sea, in addition to the two special mixed fleets of the Imperial Navy, there is also the Raleigh Fleet that takes the lead with two fast battleships.

Although it is not enough to support the Marines' strong attack on the straight fortress and do not have the ability to attack Tangier for the time being, it is still more than enough to seize the battlefield's sea power and grasp the battlefield's air power.

As for anti-submarine operations, there is nothing to worry about.

After the Malta Bran army surrendered, the Imperial Navy reached a temporary agreement with the Tsuman army, using the port of Malta to deploy a batch of anti-submarine patrol aircraft to strengthen anti-submarine patrol efforts in Luxinhai, and prepare for the next opening of a route to the Tsuman Empire.

Of course, it is also to protect the route from the Xifan Canal to Rock Country.

Before the direct route to Thaman's homeland is opened, the transport ships are allowed to go to Marseille, through the Rock Country, which is the most efficient transportation line.

The reason is also very simple: Locke has a huge and complete railway system and sufficient transportation capacity.

Although it is closer to the Balkans from the Balkans and to the Torman land, the transportation infrastructure of the entire Balkans is very backward.

In addition, after the 32nd Special Mixed Fleet headed to the Western Land and Heart Sea, the Imperial Navy also deployed more than a dozen escort destroyers to the Port of Malta.

Strictly speaking, it is actually a temporary entry.

According to the agreement reached between the two parties, Alexandria is the only base of the Imperial Navy in Luxinhai, and all other ports have nothing to do with the Imperial Navy.

That's why the Port of Malta was under the supervision of the Tsuman army, and the Imperial Navy's destroyers and patrol aircraft were only temporarily deployed.

The Tyman Army, not the Tyman Navy, is responsible for managing this port.

The reason is that the Thuman Navy has not sent a fleet to Lu Xinhai yet!

It can be seen that the problem of anti-submarine basically does not exist.

With the current lineup, even if there are still several submarines of the Bran Royal Navy or Newland Navy in the Land Heart Sea, they may be around the Zhiluo Strait.

It was precisely because of this that Bai Zhizhan gave up the idea of ​​sending a telegram to Liu Xiangzhen.

Liu Xiangzhen first sent the 32nd Special Mixed Fleet and reached an agreement with the Tsuman military to allow anti-submarine destroyers and patrol aircraft to go to the Port of Malta in advance, which was to prepare for the next march into the Xinhai of Xilu, indicating that he had long recognized the possible threats.

This is the Liu Xiangzhen that Bai Zhizhan is familiar with.

The evaluation of Liu Xiangzhen and Zhu Shijian is the most pertinent.

There is not enough entry, but there is more than enough success.

Because he tends to be conservative, Liu Xiangzhen has always been very steady during the battle, and at some point he seems to lack enterprising spirit.

Lu Xinhai now needs not be enterprising but steady!

From this we can see that Liu Changxun asked Liu Xiangzhen to stay and call Bai Zhizhan back, and what he values ​​is Liu Xiangzhen's stability.

The fleet only stayed in Shiquan City for 2 days, to be precise, 2 days and 1 night, and did not let the officers and soldiers land, so there was no need to waste too much time here.
