Chapter 1777 Deploying the Army

"What?" Arnold shouted in surprise when he heard the news, his voice was so loud that the whole room reverberated.

Just now, Roosevelt never made a statement. In fact, he was giving him a chance. In fact, Roosevelt was also a staunch advocate of the war. He believed that certain sacrifices could be made in order to win. Moreover, Roosevelt needed a decent victory to inspire the whole country. .

The last time Midway won, it was against the island country, and the Germans have never lost a battle since the war. Originally, the United States still had confidence, but after several battles, the United States has always been defeated. Now it can be said that , In the hearts of the American people, there is a layer of darkness.

Roosevelt needed victory, so he even deliberately delayed the time, hoping that the final bomber force could bring him a surprise, even if only one aircraft carrier was killed, it would be enough for him to be excited.

As long as there is victory, it can bring hope to the people.

However, at this most critical time, someone pretended to be the Pentagon and gave orders to the bomber unit in front to cancel the mission?

It's so nasty!

Roosevelt's hand turned the wheelchair, turned around, and looked at everyone. At this time, everyone clearly saw sadness in Roosevelt's eyes.

At this moment, Roosevelt did not hide his feelings.

"We, the United States of America, are really suffering." Roosevelt's words contained endless loneliness.

If the German fleet cannot be hit hard in the battle on Greenland, then the Germans can use Greenland as a springboard to land on the American continent at any time, and future wars will be even more difficult.

After all, the Germans are the masters of the continent. On the European battlefield, the Germans marched straight in and demonstrated their terrifying combat effectiveness. They thought they could hit the Germans hard at sea, but who would have thought that all this had turned into nothing.

After saying this, Roosevelt suddenly realized that he had lost his temper. If he didn't even have confidence in himself, how could he expect others to inspire confidence in victory? Once the supreme commander loses confidence, the consequences are really terrible.

"However, since the establishment of a country in the United States, we are destined to exist on this continent. Temporary defeat will not discourage us. We believe that the final victory still belongs to us." Roosevelt said: "Now, We proceed with the next arrangements to deal with the deterioration of the situation after the German occupation of Greenland."

Roosevelt could not lose confidence, he had firm perseverance, and now, he must take on his own responsibilities.

"We have an Atlantic line on our east coast, and now, after the Germans have landed in Greenland, I speculate that the Germans won't necessarily attack our Atlantic line, but will probably go around, as if they had been around. Like crossing the Maginot Line, such as landing on the east coast of Canada."

Later, Admiral Jin first expressed his speculation.

At first, the United States spent a lot of money to establish the Atlantic Defense Line, relying on coastal fortifications, coastal defense artillery, and the dense aviation bases in the rear, intending to hinder the Germans' cross-sea landing. Now, this line of defense is generally considered. completed.

However, it is absolutely impossible to speculate on the actions of the Germans with the usual way of thinking. That Cyric has always played cards according to common sense.

That is, the Germans are likely to land from Canada.

In general, Canada is not suitable for German landings. The Labrador Peninsula in eastern Canada has a cold climate and most of them are virgin forests, which are not suitable for German armored forces to pass through. At the same time, the area bordering Canada and the United States is also a In the Great Lakes basin, as long as a few key points are defended, the German attack can be blocked.

If the Germans choose to land from Canada, it is destined to be a tortuous route. Look at the Germans in Europe and Asia. They just like to push on the wilderness. When they push to the Ural Mountains, they give up. They are afraid of complexity. terrain.

However, it is absolutely impossible to use common sense to speculate. The more impossible it is, the more likely it is. This is the experience on the European battlefield.

Now when Admiral Jin made the conclusion that he landed in Canada, everyone present nodded, and this inference is very possible.

"It seems that we need to mobilize the troops in the territory to Canada to defend the Labrador Peninsula." Marshall also agreed with this conclusion, and then there will be practical actions.

The case of the Germans landing in the UK across the sea tells everyone that the best way to deal with the Germans' cross-sea landing is to drive them directly into the sea. Once they have successfully established a beachhead, it is impossible to push them further.

The army must be mobilized!

But where is the mobilization?

"Let's move our West Coast move," someone suggested.

"No." Marshall shook his head: "Recently, there has been an intensifying trend of balloon bomb attacks by the islanders. Our troops on the Pacific coast are tasked with maintaining law and order. Once the troops are deployed and the people panic, they will not be able to respond. Now, God knows if the islanders will take advantage of it."

It would be just fine without those damn balloons.

The Atlantic coast cannot be recruited, nor the Pacific coast, and there are not many inland. The National Guard of those states is now being reorganized into the army, and that is not enough.

"How about we transfer the southern provinces?" Someone suggested.

There are threats on both sides of the strait and in the north, but the south is relatively stable, and next to Mexico, there are at most some illegal immigrants, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

This proposal caused many people present to nod. After careful consideration, Roosevelt also nodded: "Then let's draw troops from Texas to defend Canada's Labrador Peninsula, and at the same time, urge Canada more. , let them send more troops to the Labrador Peninsula."

Canada is a strange country in the whole world. Their territory is huge, but the number of troops is quite rare. Before the outbreak of World War II, the total number of troops was only more than 4,600.

Canada does not need an army. The South is the United States. Except for the war that broke out between the United States and Canada in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there will be almost no conflicts in the future. Canada does not need to guard against anyone. It is useless to have an army.

It was not until World War II that Canada began to mobilize civilians to join the military. The most dazzling one was the Air Force. By the end of World War II, Canada was already the fourth largest Royal Air Force in the world.

Now, Canada is also expanding its military, but this speed cannot satisfy Roosevelt.
