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

In fact, Roosevelt is also a staunch main fighter, believing that in order to win, he can pay a certain sacrifice, and Roosevelt needs a decent victory to inspire the whole country.

The last time Midway was won, it was with the island countries, and the Germans have never suffered defeat since the war, and the United States was still confident, but after several battles, the United States has always lost, and 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 stalled for time, hoping that the last bomber force would surprise him, even if it was only one aircraft carrier, which would be enough for him to get excited.

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

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

It's so hateful!

Roosevelt's hand, turning his 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 in trouble." In Roosevelt's words, there is endless loneliness.

If the German fleet could not be dealt a heavy blow in the battle on Greenland, then the Germans would be able to land on the American continent at any time with Greenland as a springboard, and the war in the future would be even more difficult.

After all, the Germans were the masters of the continent, and on the European battlefield, the Germans drove straight in, showed terrible combat effectiveness, and thought that they would be able to hit the Germans hard at sea, who would have thought that all this would have come to naught.

After saying this, Roosevelt suddenly realized that he had lost his temper, and 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 truly terrible.

"However, since the establishment of the United States, we are destined to exist on this continent, and a temporary defeat will not discourage us, and we believe that the final victory still belongs to us." Roosevelt said: "Now we are going to make the next arrangements to deal with the deteriorating situation after the Germans occupied Greenland." ”

Roosevelt could not lose faith, he had unwavering perseverance, and now he had to take up his own responsibilities.

"We deployed the Atlantic line on our east coast, and now, after the Germans landed in Greenland, I speculate that the Germans will not necessarily attack on our Atlantic line, and will probably go around it, just as they once bypassed the Maginot Line, such as landing on the east coast of Canada."

Later, Admiral Kim first voiced his speculation.

At the beginning, the United States spent a lot of money to build the Atlantic defense line, relying on coastal fortifications, shore defense artillery, and dense air bases in the rear, intending to hinder the Germans' cross-sea landing, and now, this defense line is largely completed.

However, it is absolutely impossible to speculate on the actions of the Germans in the usual way of thinking, and that Shirek has always played his cards out of common sense.

That is, the Germans will most likely land from Canada.

The general view is that Canada is not suitable for German landing, the Labrador Peninsula in eastern Canada, the climate is cold, most of it is primeval forest, not suitable for the passage of German armored forces, and at the same time, the border between Canada and the United States, and the Great Lakes Basin, as long as you hold a few key points, you can block the German attack.

If the Germans chose to land from Canada, it was destined to be a tortuous route, and if you look at the Germans in Europe, in Asia, it was simply that they liked to advance on the field, and when they advanced to the Ural Mountains, they gave up, they were afraid of difficult terrain.

However, it is absolutely impossible to speculate with common sense, and the more you feel that it is impossible, the more likely it is, and this is the experience of the European battlefield.

Now, when Admiral King put forward the thesis of landing from Canada, everyone present nodded their heads, and this inference is very probable.

"It seems that we are going to transfer the troops in our territory to Canada to defend the Labrador Peninsula." Marshall agrees with this assertion, and then there must be practical action.

The example of the Germans' cross-sea landing in Britain tells everyone that the best way to deal with the Germans' cross-sea landing is to drive them directly into the sea, and once they have successfully established a beachhead, it is impossible to push it down.

The army must be mobilized!

But where is the transfer?

"Let's get our West Coast transfers." Someone suggested.

"Nope." Marshall shook his head: "Recently, the balloon bomb attacks of the islanders have become more and more intense, and our troops on the Pacific coast are responsible for maintaining law and order. ”

If you don't have those damn balloons, it's easy to do.

The Atlantic coast can't be withdrawn, the Pacific coast can't, there aren't many inland in the first place, and the National Guard of those states is now being reorganized into an army, which is not enough.

"Why don't we transfer the southern provinces?" Someone suggested.

There are threats on both sides of the east and west, in the north, but in the south, it is relatively stable, next to Mexico, at most there are some illegal immigrants, which is not to be feared.

This proposal made many people present nod, and after careful consideration, Roosevelt also nodded: "Then transfer troops from Texas to defend the Labrador Peninsula in Canada, and at the same time, urge Canada more, let them send more troops to the Labrador Peninsula." ”

Canada is a strange country in the world, they have a huge land area, but the number of troops is quite scarce, before the outbreak of World War II, the total number of troops was only more than 4,600.

Canada doesn't need an army, the south is the United States, except for the war that broke out with Canada in the early days of the United States, there was almost no conflict after that, Canada didn't have to guard against anyone, it was useless to ask for an army, and there was a bottomless pit of military spending.

It wasn't until World War II that Canada began to mobilize civilians into the military, most notably the Air Force, which was the fourth largest Royal Air Force in the world by the end of World War II.

Now, Canada is also in the process of military expansion, but this speed is not satisfactory to Roosevelt.
