"Your Excellency Prime Minister, gentlemen. There are still 4 aircraft carriers and 5 capital ships left in the combined fleet. The carrier-based aircraft and carrier-based aircraft pilots have suffered heavy losses. However, we still have the power to counterattack. The combined fleet will return to China to rest for a while After regaining strength, we will continue to go south to fight the German navy! Of course, the strength of the German navy is far stronger than ours. But we believe that we will definitely defeat the Germans!" Said the commander of Minai Mitsumasa.

Prime Minister Fumimaro Konoe nodded: "Minei-kun, I am very satisfied that the Navy has such confidence. I also believe that the victory must belong to the Imperial Navy."

Admiral Seishiro Itagaki didn't say much. The navy of the island country is willing to go south and continue to fight the German navy, which is already very good. If the navy is angered and the navy directly drops the pick, the consequences will be really serious.

"However, Your Excellency Prime Minister. There are still many warships under construction in the navy. We hope that the construction progress of these warships can be further accelerated. After all, the strength of the combined fleet is weaker than that of the German navy. If we want to defeat the Germans, we need more We need more capital ships and aircraft carriers. In addition, the training of pilots for carrier-based aircraft must also be expanded. Otherwise, we will soon not have enough pilots to fly carrier-based aircraft to fight against the Germans." General Minai Mitsumasa said.

Prime Minister Fumimaro Konoe couldn't help but frowned. He knew what General Mitsumasa Minai meant, that is, the navy needed more resources.

General Itagaki Seishiro's face was even more ugly, and now the navy has accounted for most of the military expenditure. If the investment in repayment is further increased, the army of the island country may not even be able to pay the military salary.

"Monei-kun, the navy has received enough military expenditures! The army's share of military expenditures must not be squeezed out anymore." Admiral Seishiro Itagaki said very resolutely.

General Minai Mitsumasa did not say anything, but looked at Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro.

"If the combined fleet wants to defeat the German navy, it really needs to further strengthen its strength. However, the existing military expenditure allocation plan should not be changed. Ikeda-san, can you think of a way to give the navy a special military expenditure?" Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro asked road.

"Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, the budget has long been in deficit. We have no money at all now." Ikeda Chengbin said.

The island countries' finances have long been overwhelmed. If it weren't for the continuous assistance from the United States to them, they might have collapsed long ago. Of course, it is precisely because of this that the island countries pin their hopes on war. If the war can be won, they will get rich benefits. All debts will also be paid off and there will still be plenty of balance remaining. If it fails, the island country may not continue to exist. Those debts, of course, no longer have to be repaid.

"Your Excellency, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will contact the United States to find a way to get another aid or loan from the United States." Ugaki Kazushige said.

Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro nodded: "Then let's do this!"

General Mitsumasa Minai has no objection to this either. He is already very satisfied to be able to get more support from the cabinet.

"Minet-kun, the cabinet will fully support the construction of the navy. However, I hope the navy will not live up to our expectations. In this war, the navy must defeat the Germans! Otherwise, the empire will be completely finished." Prime Minister Wei Wenmaro reminded.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Prime Minister! The Navy will fight desperately to defeat the Germans!" General Mitsumasa Minai replied.

This time the cabinet meeting ended like this, although the combined fleet of the island nation’s navy was defeated. However, in their external publicity, they will not say that they have been defeated. Instead, it will be said that the Combined Fleet has achieved victory. During the naval battle, the United Fleet sank four German aircraft carriers and eight battleships, and destroyed thousands of German Navy fighters.

Of course, this is hype. The purpose is to let the people of the island countries know that they have not failed and are winning, and that the people of the island countries can support them to continue the war.

In order to defeat the German navy in the next naval battle, the navy of the island country also tried its best. The construction of the four 'Yamato-class' battleships has once again sped up the progress. The island navy believes that once the four Yamato-class battleships are in service, they will once again gain an overwhelming advantage in terms of capital ships, and they will definitely be able to defeat the German Navy's capital ship formation in the Pacific Ocean. At the same time, the construction progress of the "Xianghe" aircraft carrier and the "Ruihe" aircraft carrier has also been further accelerated, and it is estimated that they will be able to enter service in at most three months. Coupled with those modified aircraft carriers that are also about to enter service, the strength of the aircraft carrier fleet of the island navy will also be restored, even stronger than before.

Other aircraft carriers that have already started construction, or plan to start construction, have also accelerated their construction progress. After going through this battle, the navy of the island country knows the strength of the German navy, and knows that if they don't want to strengthen their strength, they may not be able to defeat the German navy at all.

Another reason why the navy of the island country is confident of defeating the German navy is that although the German navy is strong, it will not send more troops to the Pacific Ocean for a while. Once the United States enters the war, it will hold back the main force of the German navy. This is undoubtedly an extremely rare opportunity for the Japanese navy. They hope to seize this opportunity to defeat the German navy in one fell swoop and establish the absolute dominance of the island nation's navy in the Pacific.

Similarly, the German Navy also claimed victory in this naval battle. The German Navy's Pacific Fleet and Indian Ocean Fleet joined forces to severely damage the island countries and the combined fleet. The command of the sea in the Pacific Ocean is still in the hands of the German Navy.

The German people are very happy about the victory of the navy. Although the Germans have never cared about the island country in the Far East, they think it is just an insignificant country. It is only right for Germany to defeat such a small country. However, it is also exciting to be able to win.

Other countries are also very concerned about this naval battle. Bu Russia is also waiting for the island countries to aggressively attack Southeast Asia and Australia, so as to share their pressure. The United States is also waiting for the island countries to attack aggressively, so that Germany can transfer more power from Europe to the Far East and Pacific region. In this way, the United States will be able to gain a greater advantage when it launches a war against Germany in the Atlantic region. The odds of winning will also be greater.

But now, the performance of the German Navy seems to have lived up to their expectations.
