Imperial Overlord

: 1217 American Concerns



When the war decision-making conference was held in Berlin, Germany, Washington in the United States was holding a similar meeting.

The top U.S. executives who attended the meeting were looking at President Roosevelt, who was sitting in the first place, waiting for his speech.

Marshall, as the right-hand man of the President of the United States, is of course sitting in his own position at this time, and next to him is the commander-in-chief of the Navy, Nimitz.

Of course, there is also General Eisenhower, the commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces, who is famous in real history, and other U.S. department officials.

Of course, Roosevelt did not make these people wait for a long time. He opened his mouth and said: "How is the implementation of the decision to deploy troops from the Eastern Front to strengthen the offensive against Japan?"

"We are continuously replenishing the losses of the 1st and 2nd Corps. The Japanese defense line is crumbling and may collapse at any time." Eisenhower opened the mouth and reported: "General MacArthur is preparing an operational plan to attack Malaya."

Mark Arthur is planning a new counterattack in Australia. Thompson and others are also gaining a little bit of an advantage in New Guinea. The Americans are about to win a battle that turns defeat into victory, and everyone is relieved.

"The pressure on the Eastern Front is already very low, and Germany obviously has no intention of going to war with us." General Marshall looked at the sickly President Roosevelt and reported the latest situation.

After careful analysis, Germany will not take military action against the United States in the short term. The two sides are separated by an Atlantic Ocean, and it is obvious that the war is not so easy to fight.

Although various states showed that the Germans were indeed preparing for a transoceanic offensive, they were obviously not prepared enough.

"The Germans conducted a large-scale airdrop paratrooper exercise in the UK. This exercise was very large in scale and had a strong deterrent effect." Marshall spoke of the German paratroopers' exercise with a melancholy expression.

When it comes to this exercise, the attention the United States has invested in is really very high. The Germans airborne about 50,000 paratroopers in the UK, and they joined the exercise in batches. The shock to the United States was huge.

The United States is also training and preparing to use paratroopers, but its scale and combat experience are not as good as the tried and tested German counterparts.

What is even more frightening is that Germany is conducting such a large-scale airborne exercise at this time, on the one hand, to scare the United Kingdom, on the other hand, it is obviously sharpening the knife to the United States.

In the current situation, only the United States, a country that is isolated overseas, still needs such a large-scale paratrooper to threaten.

If you count the landing combat troops trained when Germany landed in the UK, it is possible for Germany to invest 100,000 to 120,000 troops on the beachhead in the first batch of attacks, which is already a very impressive number.

Then calculate the armored forces that Germany may join the battle, and those terrible Panther tanks, the United States has to reconsider the safety of its own east coast.

Marshall had always suspected that the German head of state was preparing a plan for the Americans, but he never knew which part of the United States this plan was aimed at.

In his view, risking landing in the United States may be the least efficient and least likely thing to happen. But the Germans are indeed preparing such a plan, and it seems to be getting bigger and bigger.

Whether the Germans want to come to the United States to "deliver a wave of express delivery" or have other plans, Marshall has never been able to understand, so he can't make any targeted deployments.

The American Zhuge Liang has now lost his temper by the "evil spirit" head of the Third Reich, and Marshall has lost even basic confidence in any deployment against Germany.

"The British high-level officials have reduced their secret contacts with us. It can be seen that the other side's paratroopers are very threatening." Another officer of the intelligence department said at this time.

Britain, which surrendered to Germany, has always been a haven for American intelligence gathering against Germany. It's littered with easily accessible information, such as the number of shells Britain has produced for Germany, and the times when German ships are docked in British ports.

As long as you spend some money, you can get a lot of military and economic information here that you can't even imagine in Germany, and the surrendered British government is also happy to provide some convenience for the United States.

It is a pity that with the conduct of this huge airborne exercise, the British side had to reconsider its position.

The strait is no longer a moat, and the German paratroopers, as well as the navy and landing troops, can easily reach the UK and drown this place in a bottomless sea of ​​blood again.

Therefore, the British high-level officials had to restrain themselves, shut down some radio stations that directly provided intelligence to the United States, and expelled some obvious American intelligence personnel.

Of course, the United States can still get a lot of information that it is interested in. After all, when the British government surrendered, it had already made up its mind to be a firm wallist like France.

Since it is a wall-riding faction, it is an inevitable choice to sell well on both sides. The British high-level officials are still flirting with the Germans while secretly communicating with the United States.

"The Germans are training the navy. Their naval combat experience is insufficient, and the scale is rapidly expanding, so the threat to us in a short time is not too great." Nimitz started talking about the navy.

The German navy in the Atlantic is not enough to support the heavy task of attacking the United States, neither in quantity nor in quality, so the United States is relatively reassured about this.

"But they have their own advantages in terms of the number of warships~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and the understanding and application of aviation troops." But this kind of reassurance also has a bottom line.

According to the news from the Soviet Union, the other party is conducting actual combat training in the Black Sea area. Obviously, the quality of the soldiers is improving rapidly.

When this naval training takes shape, then the trouble for the Americans will come. Up to now, the United States has not dared to fully deploy its East Coast garrison ships to the Pacific Ocean, because it is afraid of the German Navy.

If the French navy and the Italian navy really get into the water with the Germans and plan to attack the United States, they will be a tougher opponent than Japan.

So the United States has been keeping an eye on the combined fleet of the Axis powers, the one that shelled Sevastopol.

This fleet does not frighten the United States in terms of combat power. What the United States is worried about is that this cooperation model will eventually evolve into a closer and larger state.

Once several navies of the Axis powers can work together, landing in the United States is not an impossible task...

There are two more later, you can watch it tomorrow morning. 8)
