Of course there are pro-Germans in Canada!

The French people of Quebec are now very pro-German, and have long been looking forward to the Bourbon prince to be their king. Of course, this is not the only reason why Quebecers are pro-German.www.biquge.info The French in Quebec at this time were mainly farmers, and their products were mainly sold in Europe - the United States itself was a super agricultural power with too many agricultural products to collapse, and there was no need for Canadian agricultural products, while Europeans were the big customers of Quebec farmers with more people and less land.

Now because of the war, Quebec's farmers are about to go bankrupt, and naturally they want to "enter Europe" in their dreams.

In addition to the French farmers in Quebec, the Germans in Canada are generally more German-friendly, and the most influential pro-German figure is named Marguerite. Ross. Feng. Saxony. Coburg-Gotha - She is Princess Margaret, the heir to the British (Canadian) throne, and she should have taken the surname Windsor.

But for some reason, she reverted to her ancestral surname, Saxony, after the Soviet-Russian peace (in fact, Germany won the Soviet-German war). Coburg-Gotha (the family name is Weitin), and it also preceded the surname "von", which is entirely named after the German Saxony. The princess of Coburg-Gotha is a self-proclaimed princess and has also begun to learn German!

According to Donovan's information, the heir to the Canadian throne, who is said to be guilty of adolescent rebellion, is very unhappy about marrying a Bourbon prince, and her fantasy husband should be a German prince, preferably a vicious Nazi warrior, and even better if he is an ace pilot......

In short, as the balance of victory in the war tipped in favor of Germany, many Canadians (British in Canada), including Princess Margaret, found themselves of German ancestry (many of which they actually had). Some British aristocrats of German origin simply reverted to their German ancestral surnames and added a "von" to their names, and many Canadians (British) began to learn German.

Now that Queen Elizabeth of England has announced that she will send troops to expel the US troops in Canada, I am afraid that the arrogance of the pro-German faction in Canada will be even more arrogant, and the pro-American camp may be greatly shaken, right?

"Canada...... Nothing will happen, will it? "Truman, having learned a lot of pro-German information about Canada, began to worry about a change in Canada.

There are now hundreds of thousands of fighting British troops on Canadian soil, and if anything happens, the United States will die an ugly death.

"Not ......yet," Donovan thought for a moment, "if we lose the battle at Newfoundland and Labrador, let the British ...... The invasion of Brunswick by the British traitor army may have serious problems. ”

The British in Canada will resist the invading Germans, but will they not be with the invasion...... Oh, it's hard to say that it should be a fight with the British army who came to liberate.

As for the traitor or something...... This is what the Americans are saying, and the Canadians don't see it that way at all. In the eyes of most Canadians, Queen Elizabeth was the rightful heir to the British throne, serving as regent of Britain after the escape of George VI, crowning king in the face of a rebellion in London and the collapse of both the cabinet and parliament.

"Mr. President, we should be prepared to help Canada become independent from Britain and establish a democratic republic if necessary!"

It was the Secretary of War Wallace who made this suggestion, who did not have a penny of favor for the monarchy in any situation. More resolutely opposed to the formation of a reactionary dynasty in Europe by a pro-German Europe (Saxony. The Coburg-Gotha dynasty was in fact a German dynasty that ruled Canada after the war - a dynasty that could well have become a tool for German power to penetrate North America!

"Henry," Truman said, glancing at Wallace, "if we overthrow George VI and install a Canadian republic, our peace negotiations with the European Community will be extremely difficult. And...... Canada's hundreds of thousands of British troops and millions of militiamen are likely to become our enemies as a result! ”

"But the President," Wallace said, shaking his head, "if we allow the pro-German forces in Canada to swell, even if peace is achieved, there is a risk that the United States will be plunged back into crisis because of Canada's total turn to Germany in the future."

Once Germany deploys long-range bombers capable of carrying atomic bombs on Canadian soil, then the entire United States will face a catastrophe! ”

Wallace's reasoning is hard to refute, and Truman looked at the president's chief of staff, William Truman. Leahy, whose already white eyebrows were twisted into a ball, seemed to be struggling with what to do.

"Mr. President," said Leahy, "Secretary Wallace is right when he says that we must prevent Canada from falling to Germany after the war...... Canada should be independent, not exist as part of the British Empire. ”

"Are we going to occupy Ottawa, Montreal, and Quebec?" Truman asked.

"No...... That won't work. U.S. Army Chief of Staff Marshall interjected, "The Army in Canada is not prepared to do so, and it is impossible to disarm the Canadian Army in a short period of time." ”

"Then think of something else." Wallace said, "Like being prepared to control George VI and Princess Margaret." In addition, we should clearly tell George VI that the United States is against a prince from Europe becoming the future king of Canada! ”

Truman thought about it, and the current solution seemed to be more acceptable: "Okay, that's it. I'll give Kennedy a trip to Canada...... He served as ambassador to England and had a good relationship with King George VI. If King George VI had followed his advice at that time, we would not have been so passive now. ”

At that time, Kennedy believed that Britain could not defeat Germany and that peace should be negotiated as soon as possible. This suggestion was criticized by Britain and the United States at the time, causing him to lose his post as ambassador to Britain, which now seems prescient.

And when Truman mentioned this, there was a sudden embarrassment in the conference room of the White House bunker. Wallace towards William. Raisi gave him a look, and the Chief of Staff immediately said, "Mr. President, the situation on the island of Newfoundland has stabilized and is beginning to change in our favor. Although the Germans organized continuous airdrops during the day on the 26th and 27th, there were no super-large transport planes that could carry tanks, and all the people who were dropped on Newfoundland were ordinary paratroopers.

These lightweight troops cannot compete with our armored forces in any way! Thus, on the night of the 26th and 27th, the advance of our troops was quite smooth, and now the German army had been compressed into a narrow strip of several tens of kilometers near the western shore of the Strait of Concepschen. ”

Following the airdrop during the day on the 26th, hundreds of sorties of Fokker 42 flew over Newfoundland during the day on the 27th, dropping thousands of paratroopers and a large amount of supplies, and now the number of German troops on the west shore of Concepson Bay has exceeded 30,000.

However, the U.S. military on Newfoundland Island is not worried about the increase in the number of German troops, what really frightens them is the German tanks and tank destroyers, especially the E-25 tank destroyer that appeared on the battlefield for the first time, is extremely combative, and its 70 times the diameter of the 75mm gun can even threaten the front of the American M26 "Pershing" tank at a distance of 1,500 meters when using pointed tungsten core armor-piercing shells. In the event of a night engagement, the E-25 tank destroyer could threaten the M26 Pershing tank at a distance of 1,000 meters with its superior night vision devices, and the commander of the Pershing tank had not even discovered the E-25's hidden position with the help of flares.

So in the battles on the night of the 26th and the night of the 27th, the US 16th Armored Division lost a total of hundreds of tanks and tank destroyers of all kinds, and the progress was very slow. The so-called compression of the German army into a narrow strip of several tens of kilometers near the western shore of Concepson Bay was only the result of the German army's voluntary contraction.

But the destruction of more than a hundred tanks and tank destroyers was not too much for the American troops on Newfoundland, they had enough stocks to consume, and the route to Newfoundland was not completely cut off by German submarines and mines. The Americans transported a total of 26 M200 "Pershing" tanks from Nova Scotia to Newfoundland with tank landing ships on the night of 27 and 26.

In addition, many airfields on Newfoundland that had been destroyed in a major German air raid on the 24th were repaired. This allowed the C-47 transport planes transporting tank crews to land on the island at night, so by daylight on the 28th, the number of tanks/tank destroyers equipped by the US military on Newfoundland (not including the number in stock) had increased by more than 300 units, instead of decreasing!

With these additional tanks/tank destroyers, the U.S. military also urgently formed a new armored division on the island of Newfoundland, the 21st Armored Division of the U.S. Army. The 21st Panzer Division, the 16th Panzer Division, the 11th Airborne Division, the 13th Airborne Division and the 17th Airborne Division formed the 20th Army Corps. Lieutenant General Walker (transferred from Trinidad) commanded and was specifically responsible for attacking the Germans on the western shore of Concepson Bay.

"Mr. President," Marshall, Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army, assured President Truman. Lieutenant General Walker once commanded troops in bloody battles with Japanese troops in the Hawaiian Islands, and has very rich combat experience. The 5 elite Panzer and Paratrooper divisions under his command will soon attack, and within a week, the German army entrenched on the west shore of Concepson Bay will be completely annihilated! ”

"One week to wipe out the Germans on the island of Newfoundland?" Goalkeeper Trure was skeptical.

"No problem." Chief of Naval Operations Ernest Murphy. Kim also said: "President, we have many light ships in Concepson Bay, and tens of thousands of mines have been laid, and it is simply impossible for the German ships to break through in 1 week." So, the German troops on the island of Newfoundland were practically isolated. ”

Chapter 1253 Atomic Bomb Ten

"That's great!"

The President of the United States heard Ernest. King's assurance, at last, breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Secretary of War Wallace: "Henry, I think the victory on Newfoundland Island can draw a perfect end to this world war." ”

"President, you mean......" Wallace didn't seem to understand Truman's words, "you're saying that we should make peace with the Germans?" ”

"Not only Germany," Truman shook his head vigorously, "and Japan!" The whole world should return to peace after the battle on Newfoundland. ”

"Japan?" Wallace shook his head vigorously, "But they are about to be defeated, the Far East War they started is a complete disaster, and even that bastard Hideki Tojo is to blame and resigns." ”

For the United States and Europe, the war in the Far East began as an inconspicuous local war in a distant place. The Great General Staff of Germany, headed by Field Marshal Hersmann, did not seem to have seriously studied the war - because for Germany, the three parties involved in the war in the Far East, Soviet Russia, led by the Bolshevik Party of the Soviet Union (the Soviet Union is not the official name of the state now, Soviet Russia is the official name); Neither China nor the Japanese Empire, led by the Chinese Bolshevik Party, were enemies of Germany.

The Soviet-German war had turned into a "Soviet-Russian civil war" in 1944, and in July 1944 there was an armistice - this is also what Germany is happy to see, if there is no armistice, then Stalin's "100 million" (in fact, not so many) Slavic masters will have to join Europe! Therefore, Germany did not actually want Soviet Russia to be defeated by Japan in the Far East, which would hasten the unification of Russia.

In 1939, the central government in China fell completely into the hands of the Soviet-backed Bolshevik Party – which also had something to do with Germany, which had started a world war and was about to form an alliance with the Soviet Union, making the Chinese Bolshevik Party, an ally of the Soviet Union, and the revolutionary regime in southern China worth a hundred times as much as the Soviet Union. As a result, the Bolshevik Party became the dominant force of the revolutionary regime in the south, and then launched the Second Northern Expedition, with the aim of entrenching the Fengzhang regime in North and Northeast China.

Britain, the United States, France, and other powers, fearing offending the Soviet Union (they were very afraid of an alliance between the Soviet Union and Germany), all severed diplomatic relations with Fengzhang when the Bolshevik army began the Northern Expedition, and at the same time established diplomatic relations with the revolutionary government in the south - and this was tantamount to a death sentence for the Fengzhang regime!

Japan, as the backstage of the Fengzhang regime, intervened when the Northern Expeditionary Army approached Beijing, and the Soviet Union did not show weakness by sending the Red Army's 56th Army under Zhukov's command from Outer Mongolia to support the Chinese revolution.

The two sides fought a decisive battle on the Chahar steppe, but neither announced the result after the battle. There seems to be neither a winner nor a loser. However, according to reliable rumors, the elite 2nd Division and the 1st Cavalry Group (equivalent to the division) of the Japanese Army at that time attempted to repel the Soviet Army and the Chinese Red Army before they could join forces from the south of Mongolia.

As a result, the two sides launched a field battle on the Chahar steppe, and the Japanese army also learned the power of mechanized warfare for the first time. Although the BT tanks and T-26 tanks equipped with the Soviet 56th Army at that time had almost no outstanding performance in the later Soviet-German war. However, they were not something that could be stopped by the Japanese army, which had no anti-tank means, so the battle would inevitably end in a crushing defeat for the Japanese army.

After this battle, the Chinese Red Army of the Northern Expedition marched into Beijing and Tianjin without bloodshed, and the garrison in the Japanese Lend-Lease in Tianjin was hastily withdrawn after the Battle of Chahar, while the troops of Britain, France, and the United States stationed there, together with the foreign troops stationed in the Shanghai Concession, retreated at the request of the Chinese revolutionary government.

However, the Chinese Red Army, which had successfully gained access to North China, did not continue to march into the northeastern hinterland, but advanced to the western Liaoning region with the assistance of the Soviet Red Army (occupying the western Liaoning corridor and the Rehe Mountains) and declared an armistice with the Feng regime. The failed Feng regime also had civil strife, the old marshal Zhang Zuolin (who lived 10 years longer than in history) was assassinated, the young marshal Zhang Xueliang fled to Beijing, and the Feng general Tang Yulin became the lord of the three eastern provinces with the support of the rest of the Feng system, and continued to survive under the protection of Japan.

The Chahar War, which was not well received by the West, became the main reason why Japan abandoned its policy of continental expansion at the end of 1941.

But by 1944, seeing the Soviet Union retreat under German blows, Japan once again picked up the policy of continental expansion that had already been abandoned. The Army, led by Hideki Tojo, developed a risky expansion plan and prepared to dispatch more than 1 million elite "mechanized troops" in an attempt to defeat the Soviet Red Army and seize the Far East and at the same time take all of Northeast China.

However, what the Japanese did not expect was that they would encounter not only more than one million defeated German Nazi soldiers on the Far East continent (the defeated soldiers who had fought the Nazis were not something that the Japanese could deal with), but also countless Chinese GC fighters!

In the seventeen or eighteen years before 1944, although China completed a vigorous social revolution, the country remained inconspicuous in the eyes of the great powers. Because this is the era of industrialization, and China is very backward in this regard, it is not in the eyes of the Great Japanese Empire.

Of course, there is some truth in the Japanese opinion. Due to the very limited strength of the USSR itself at that time, it was not possible to provide assistance, as was later the case under Khrushchev. So until 1942, the industrial level of China's "liberated areas" was still very weak, with the indicative steel output just exceeding 1 million tons, less than one-seventh of Japan's, and only 5 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity, only a quarter of Japan's, and only tens of millions of tons of coal.

However, this does not mean that in the nearly 15 years from 1928 to 1942, China did not make great progress - the Soviet Union (GC International) helped China produce a whole generation of talents! In 1928, there were only a few tens of thousands of college graduates in China. By 1942, there were 812,000 students in colleges and universities alone! The number of students in ordinary middle schools has exceeded 10 million, the number of students in vocational middle schools has exceeded 2 million, and the number of students in ordinary primary schools has reached an astonishing 90 million!

The two or three million Red Army soldiers who participated in the Northern Expedition in 1939 were all newcomers of the new generation who had received at least 6 years of GC revolutionary education - GC revolutionary education was of course brainwashing + militarization, and when they graduated from junior high school, they were all good GC soldiers who wanted to write blood letters to join the Red Army to liberate all mankind. At least ideologically, it is not at all worse than the Showa samurai in Japan.

And these GC soldiers are not only a very ideal source of soldiers (and how many or how many, according to the calculation of primary school graduation, there are more than 10 million in each class, of which at least five or six million are boys who are suitable for being soldiers), but also an industrialized labor force.

Thus, in '42, when the United States decided to use Lend-Lease supplies, loans, and engineers to lure China into the war, the Americans soon discovered that China was a country they had neglected (which was also related to the Chinese revolutionary government's policy of seclusion) with amazing growth potential.

Just a small inflow of machinery and technology (machines worth less than $300 million) has sparked an "industrial leap" in China. In just three years, China's steel production has more than tripled to more than 3 million tons, electricity has doubled to 10 billion kWh, coal has exceeded 150 million tons, and oil production has exceeded 800,000 tons (Yumen and Yanchang oil fields have been developed). The growth of the most basic military products, including rifles, machine guns, and artillery, has reached an astonishing level, enough to arm an army of more than 10 million people.

Before Japan launched the Far Eastern War, the Bolshevik government in China was aware of the imminent invasion of Japanese imperialism, so it carried out a general mobilization in advance and organized several million Red Army. The backbone of this army is the internationalist fighters who have experienced the baptism of the Soviet-German war -- although China did not declare war on Germany, it also sent hundreds of thousands of internationalist fighters to participate in the war, and the Soviet Union also sent a huge military advisory group headed by Marshal Konev. Although their military experience cannot be compared with that of the German army, which won on the battlefield, it is definitely not comparable to that of the Japanese army, which has never even seen mechanized warfare.

Therefore, the Far East War, which began in July 1944, became a nightmare for the Japanese Army. The Chinese and Russian Red Army, which had absolute superiority in troops, deliberately showed weakness at the beginning, taking a defensive position on the Jinzhou-Rehe line and the major strongholds in the Soviet Far East, dragging the blind and arrogant Japanese army into the Winter War with heavy casualties. This was followed by a winter counteroffensive during the ice and snow season from December 1944 to March 1945 (the Soviets and Chinese internationalist fighters who had participated in the Soviet-German war had rich experience in the winter war), which not only repelled the Japanese army from all Soviet territory except for North Sakhalin Island and all Chinese territory except for the fortress of Arthur, but also crossed the Yalu River with great courage and high spirits. It advanced until around the 38th parallel, and then stopped the offensive due to the warming climate and the arrival of the snowmelt season in the northeast.

The humiliating war also caused a political crisis in Japan, and Hideki Tojo, who had been proud since 1942, had to resign as prime minister in early 1945, and was replaced by Yamamoto Isoroku, a hero of the navy.

Yamamoto, who realized that Japan was unable to defeat the United States, Soviet Russia, and China at the same time, stepped up the process of negotiating peace with the United States in early 1945 and set conditions for the demilitarization of the "Hawaiian Islands" and the "Aleutian Islands."

"No!" Truman shook his head, "An overly weakened Japan is not good for us either. Because that would bring European power back to Southeast Asia and Australia...... It is quite possible that the Germans were playing this idea, otherwise the Japanese would not have suffered such a crushing defeat in the war in the Far East. The Germans must have wanted to crush Japan with the power of the Soviet Union, China and us, and then let the Europeans take back the colonies of Southeast Asia and Australia and New Zealand. We can't let them get their way! ”
