Chapter 660 The British Army's Defense Deployment Strategy

The reason why Navy Chief of Staff John Henry Dex Cunningham asked this is because in the original history, the first factor in Germany's cross-sea attack on the English Channel was that Germany did not consider crossing the English Channel at all before the war, nor did it make any decent preparations. For example, it did not produce large-scale landing crafts, motorboats, torpedo speedboats, tank landing crafts, as well as torpedo bombers and other weapons and equipment, and did not train a large number of amphibious landing troops.

The second factor is that Hitler advocated exaggerating the role of capturing the Soviet Union, solved the Soviet Union and seized the Soviet Union's resources; it would allow Britain to hold peace talks and allow Germany to avoid the danger of fighting on two fronts.

But the final facts prove that once the German army began the Eastern Front War, it not only had a large amount of troops restrained by the Soviet army, but also suffered heavy casualties, and Ye had no extra troops and strength to carry out the British landing war.

But the person in power is the time traveler Chen Yanlong, and he now has a large number of aircraft carrier fleets redeemed by the mobile phone system to fight against new carrier-based aircraft.

Therefore, for the British senior officials who fought several large-scale naval defeats one after another, they would never take it lightly in the face of the German invasion of the Port of Ceuta this time, and they would also find ways to win over Spain, which is a neutral position, to declare war on Germany.

Because Port Ceuta is the treasure of Spain, the British army believed that the British would not give up their colonial interests just like that.

"We are investigating the situation of these weapons and equipment and the deployment of troops of the German army; we should be able to understand them in these few days!"

Viscount Gott was asked by Chief of Staff John for a time, and he didn't know how to answer.

Because of the situations the other party mentioned, he is now ignorant of nothing.

There was no way, he had just landed at the English Channel Garage Command for only more than two days.

"Then you have to send more reconnaissance troops to reconnaise all the military operations and weapons and equipment of the German army; we have suffered a lot of losses, so this time we will never be caught off guard by those damn German troops using new weapons and equipment we don't know!"

"In the recent naval battles and the Sicily battle, we have suffered a lot of casualties. If we continue like this, we may be in a bad mood and the national sentiment will be greatly affected and fluctuated!"

"I absolutely do not want to see them happen for such far-reaching things!"

Looking at the other party's embarrassing response, Chief of Staff John of the Army said seriously.

"Yeah! I understand!"

"By the way, in this battle, has Prime Minister Churchill dispatched enough new weapons and equipment to fight us?"

After listening to the speech of Chief of Staff John, Viscount Gott immediately changed the subject.

"Yes! But the number is not very large!"

Navy Chief of Staff John nodded and agreed.

"Do you know that there are new weapons and equipment for us to fight against those Germans? Although Rommel was defeated by General Montgomery, this guy is not a good character to deal with!"

Viscount Got continued to ask.

"Well! Maybe! But now we are not in the desert of Africa, so we don't have to be too afraid of him!"

"What I worry about now is not the army forces led by Rommel, but the comprehensive strength of the German aircraft carrier fleet, especially their carrier-based aircraft forces, which makes me even more worried!"

"So we must understand the strength of the German navy as soon as possible so that we can make the most correct military deployment to fight the upcoming invasion operation of the German army!"

"The English Channel is a very important strategic zone for us, and it is the best strait to separate us from Europe to avoid war, so it is absolutely impossible for the German army to occupy it!"

Navy Chief of Staff John said extremely seriously.

Looking at the Navy Chief of Staff John, who looked very serious, Viscount Gott nodded with understanding and stopped talking.

"In addition, we need to fully grasp the air supremacy of the English Channel, because in this way we can carry out large-scale bombing operations on the German landing ships and beachheads, and try our best to kill more landings in the German army!"

"In addition to air supremacy, we also need to seize sea power, deploy a large number of magnetically induced mines, and a mine barrier formed by triggering mines!"

Navy Chief of Staff John continued.

"But magnetic induction mines are the masterpiece of the German army! Can we produce them?"

Upon hearing this, Viscount Gott asked hurriedly.

"Don't worry! Our spies have got their design drawings and made it into the United States!"

"In addition to magnetically induction mines and triggering mines, we also need to deploy more different types of mines to prevent the German army from landing operations. At the same time, coastal defense artillery, beaches and other fortifications must also be consolidated and deepened designs. The German landing troops will never be able to easily land successfully!"

Navy Chief of Staff John continued to make suggestions.

"Well! These things have been issued after I came here!"

"The residents and officers and soldiers stationed here are also in the process of rushing to work!"

Viscount Gott responded immediately.

"That's good! Now our initial defense strategy is to build large-scale mine barriers, beach mine arrays, and various fortifications, fortresses, machine gun shooting points, and artillery concealed points; at the same time, we must find ways to cut off all the German logistics supply fleets, including their transport fleets, and use aviation troops to blow up all the German amphibious landing grounds to fight. I don't believe that the German army can fight so far away from the land, and they can continue to rely on aircraft and transport fleets to transport supplies?"

"Even if we can, we have to make them pay a heavy price, otherwise our British Empire will be in danger of being directly invaded by the German army!"

"I always feel that these Germans are confusing us with the illusion of attacking the Port of Ceuta, and they have to directly land on the land of our empire and complete their previously unfinished sea lion plan!"

Navy Chief of Staff John spoke out his analysis.

"I agree with you. Now is time for us. We must have more time to build our defense system!"

"At this stage, with the forces we deployed in the English Channel, there is no way to fight head-on with the aggressive German army directly, so we must fight a long-term defensive war to consume more of the German army's livelihood. It is best to completely cut off the German army's logistics supplies!"

"As long as the German army loses logistics supplies, they will be not far from defeat!"

Viscount Gott said deeply.
