As the bullet swept past a row of people lying behind the rocks, Phillips didn't feel much. This kind of refreshment of sweeping the ground is stimulating every cell in him, and he knows that it is very enjoyable, but that's all.

He didn't know that his machine gun bullets swept away an American major general and killed the commander of the 1st Marine Division.

Reykjavik.

The sun had set, and the whole of Reykjavik was plunged into darkness.

U.S. Command in Iceland.

Lieutenant General Alexander had a lot of bloodshot eyes, he was constantly smoking, and the whole room became smoky.

"That is, in one day, the Germans managed to land in Iceland, they annihilated our entire 1st Marine Division, and at the same time, they approached the capital of Iceland, where we are located."

Just one day, from morning to night, just like this, who would have thought that the situation on this day would deteriorate so seriously!

This was the first battle between the United States and Germany head-on, and the United States had already lost everything.

"We have to get reinforcements, if we want to hold the city, if we want to drive the Germans out into the sea, our 3rd Marine Division is absolutely not enough." Next to him, the commander of the 3rd Marine Division, Major General Slaich, said.

During the day, after getting the news that the 1st Marine Division was surrounded, how much they wanted to go out to the rescue, but they did not act.

If the 1st Marine Division can't break out of the siege by its own ability, then their rescue is useless, it will only consume their army in vain, and now, they have to defend the city of Reykjavík, they have to rely on the city to carry out street battles!

It's just a pity that it is absolutely not enough to have the strength of one of their divisions, they do not have heavy weapons, they do not have effective anti-tank weapons, for them to fight is to send to the death.

They need reinforcements.

Hearing his words, Lieutenant General Alexander stomped his steps uneasily: "Until now, the White House has not replied to us. ”

Lieutenant General Alexander had already vaguely guessed something.

Reinforcements are out of the question.

The reason is also very simple, the United States is now using its main forces to deal with the island countries, and is not ready to fight the Germans at all.

If there are too few reinforcements, the air transport must be used, and the transport fleet must be used, which will inevitably be intercepted by the German Navy, and during the gap period when a large number of ships of the US Navy are still under construction and have not entered service, the United States is not even able to deal with the island countries, and has no ability to deal with the Germans.

In this way, if the United States sends a transport ship, it will only be sunk by Germany, and if the United States mobilizes the main forces of the Navy, what will happen to the Pacific Ocean?

In fact, even if the United States wants to mobilize now, it will be too late, because it will take three or five days for the ships to come at the earliest, and if they come from the distant American mainland, a week will not be enough, and during this time, the whole of Iceland will be planted with the German flag, and it will be too late.

Not to mention, having lost Iceland, the United States also has Greenland.

Immediately after Denmark was conquered by Germany, the United States occupied Greenland and administered Greenland, which was too small for Greenland's vast land, and after weighing the pros and cons, the White House may have given up on saving Iceland.

The White House gave up, but couldn't say it, so they simply didn't reply and watched Iceland fall into the hands of the Germans?

"No, we can't just give up." "We can mobilize the citizens of Reykjavík to fight with us against the German invasion, yes, we will go to the Prime Minister of Iceland now and ask him to mobilize the people," said Major General Sleich. ”

Hearing the words of Major General Slaich, Lieutenant General Alexander just smiled bitterly.

Looking for the Prime Minister of Iceland for help? Think about how you got here, when the Prime Minister of Iceland was like that, it was almost like he had been strengthened, and at this time, maybe people were cheering and waiting for the Germans to come!

Prime Minister's Office.

"The Germans have hit the outskirts of the city." The head of the Icelandic National Police, Aina Anades, told Icelandic Prime Minister Hermann Jonathan: "The Americans' formidable 1st Marine Division has been wiped out in just one day. ”

"In other words, Iceland fell under German rule, which was already immutable." Herman said: "Tonight, maybe there will be a catastrophe in our capital. ”

Indeed, the gods fought and harmed all the people. Iceland has no army, only a police force, and now there are only 70 people, and the total population of Iceland is only 120,000, which is definitely the most cowardly character.

The British came, and Iceland had to be occupied by the British, which was a shame for Iceland.

After all, from the history of Iceland, the British played the role of invaders.

Iceland has a cold climate, but the surrounding sea is rich in abundant fish resources, which is cheap to fish, but rich in protein, which is almost an important source of income for Iceland.

Due to the geographical location, the British often came to Iceland to fish, even in later generations, after the end of World War II, Iceland and the British fought the "Cod War" for more than 20 years.

Although it was only a skirmish, it also illustrated the enmity between Iceland and the British.

Now, Iceland is reluctant to be controlled by the British, and the Americans who replaced the British have little affection. Later, when Germany announced its surrender, the rest of Europe was jubilant, but there was clashes between the local people and British sailors in Iceland. The British and American soldiers had no other contribution to Iceland than to leave behind a large number of illegitimate children.

But what good would it do Iceland if it fell under German rule?

It doesn't seem to be any good.

Just then, there was an uproar outside.

"No, you can't go in, the prime minister is already resting." Outside, the voice of the captain of the guard was heard, and then the bolt of the gun was pulled.

The two looked at each other, looked at the door, and saw an American major general, pushing open the door and walking in.

"Mr. Prime Minister, I have come to you for help." Major General Slaich said: "Iceland has reached the most dangerous time, and the men of Iceland must be mobilized to resist the German invasion. ”

He said that he was here to ask for help, but his attitude was definitely a tone of command, and a major general could shout at the Prime Minister of Iceland.

Hearing Slaich's words, Herman immediately straightened his face.

You are stationed in Iceland, so forget it, and now, why do you want Icelanders to participate in your war? Icelanders will never shed blood for this war, it has nothing to do with Iceland!
