In fact, the Italian Navy was easier to deal with than expected.

After the Egyptian army divided into two groups and began to attack the remaining territory of Italy, the Italian army did not retreat or surrender. They still organized resistance, and the navy even dispatched battleships to cooperate with the army.

However, the level of the Italian Army cannot sustain it, and in the face of the beheading of Space Marines, the frontal assault of the Krieg Death Corps, and the subsequent saturation attacks of the modern army, no army in this era dares to say that it can withstand it. Live such an offense.

This even includes the Egyptian army itself. Even if they have advanced equipment and combat concepts that are half a century ahead of their time, it is really difficult to withstand the beheading of the headquarters by out-of-standard space warriors, let alone the fearlessness of death and the simultaneous use of equipment. There was also a storming attack by the more advanced Krieg Death Corps.

After losing the defense of the army, the port was quickly captured, and the route was blocked by the Mediterranean fleet. The Italian navy floated on the sea for a week, suffered air attacks from Egyptian aircraft carriers, and finally chose to surrender.

Two Veneto-class battleships that had just been in service for a short time became the trophies of the Egyptian Navy, along with the No. 4 ship that had been started but not completed.

Regarding the unfinished No. 4 ship, Chen Mo gave the order to the shipyard to transform it into an aircraft carrier after some consideration. The other two ships of the Veneto class, the Veneto and the Roma, were ordered by him to be sent to the nearest shipyard. The port is used for summoning ship girls.

The two warships were delivered to the port according to Chen Mo's order. Littorio, who wanted to welcome his sisters, naturally followed Chen Mo to the port and accompanied him aboard the two most proud warships in Italy.

After Cunningham learned about this, he rushed over eagerly. He had seen Littorio's performance on the battlefield before. As an old navy man, how could he not hear the sound of naval guns.

Combining Littorio's name with her demonstrated abilities, the British didn't need much effort to guess Littorio's true identity.

This naturally aroused great interest in the British.

Just kidding, a humanoid unit can exert the firepower of a battleship and be able to go ashore. This is incredible, right?

The British Admiralty even conducted a very serious study and judgment. They concluded that if a team of six such units entered the city, the Royal Navy's anchorage of Portsmouth could be captured within half an hour. Even if the Royal Navy in the port Even with all the main force of the navy there is nothing to be done.

Although they don't know what Littorio's defense is, just an ordinary person with the firepower output of a battleship is enough to make him extremely difficult to deal with. After all, that is the firepower of a battleship, except for the battleship itself. No other unit could hold it.

Just imagine, if such a small team raided Buckingham Palace or Downing Street, even if Britain had a powerful navy and an army sufficient to defend its homeland, there would be no way to withstand such a sneak attack by a battleship.

In particular, whether it is Downing Street or Buckingham Palace, although there were bunkers to protect against air strikes and artillery bombardments at the beginning of the design, they were prepared for the Army's heavy artillery and the Air Force's heavy aerial bombs, not for the high-explosive armor-piercing bombs of the Navy's battleships. of.

The high-explosive armor-piercing projectiles used by the navy's battleship main guns can really blast a fifty-meter-deep hole in the ground.

The only cannons of this caliber used by humans on land are the fortress guns of the past and the giant cannons used by the Germans on the battlefield today.

However, these artillery guns are far from being comparable to naval guns in terms of barrel life, rate of fire, or bombardment power.

Therefore, the British are eager to know how Chen Mo came up with such a humanoid battleship-level unit. Now that he clearly wants to expand his power, how can the British miss this opportunity?

However, Chen Mo obviously did not prepare to summon Veneto and Roma as soon as he came up. Instead, he visited the Veneto, the most proud warship in Italy.

"I have to say that Italians are really luxurious. The decoration is so luxurious." Visiting the officer's cabin on the ship, Chen Mo sat down on a leather sofa and stroked the soft leather with an expression on his face. Out of joy and anger.

This cabin is only a cabin for mid-level officers on the ship. Although it is an independent cabin, it is not large in area. Apart from a bed, a desk, two sofas and a coffee table, there is not much space for activities.

But this is still much more comfortable than the lower-level sailors who need three people to squeeze into a bunk as big as a stretcher and have to take turns sleeping.

In particular, this cabin follows the consistent artistic and aesthetic style of the Italians. The walls are decorated with precious solid wood boards. The walls of the cabin are even decorated with exquisite wallpapers and oil paintings.

This is very inappropriate for a battleship.

Not to mention that wood and wallpaper are both flammable materials. Once a fire breaks out in wartime, it will lead to serious consequences. Just spending money on these luxurious decorations is a huge waste.

Warships are weapons used for combat. If you have the budget to decorate luxurious cabins for officers, why not use this money to improve the living environment of the lower-level sailors?

You need to know the living conditions of the lower-class sailors. Auschwitz was so crowded that it would make you cry. Although the Jews waiting to enter the crematorium said that their living space was as small as a coffin, at least they did not have to share it with others. It's a small space.

But on warships, the sleeping space for sailors is not much more than that of the Jews in Auschwitz, but at least two or three people sleep in one bunk, often next to places like the engine room. One can imagine how bad the conditions are.

Slowly roasted at low temperatures of over 40 degrees Celsius all year round, the engine room is such an outrageous place, especially since it is still below the waterline. Once a battleship is flooded, the engine room will always be the first to drown.

But this is the practice of all navies today. The higher the rank on the ship, the better the treatment. It is a typical aristocratic army.

Even the Egyptian Navy in Chen Mo's hands and the nine Imperial Navy battleships floating in the sky are actually in the same situation.

He doesn't have any good way to solve this problem. After all, no matter from which perspective, he is the top vested interest. He can't revolutionize himself, can he? I can only complain about the luxury of Italians.

As for improving treatment and the like... Until the 21st century, the living conditions on naval ships are still not very good, and sailors at the bottom are always the most difficult.

Therefore, Chen Mo quickly lost the nature of the visit and went directly to the bridge, preparing to directly start the ceremony of summoning the ship girl.
