Chapter 044: Americans are stimulated
The great victory of the Chinese stimulated the most naturally the allies, and the victory of the enemy cast a shadow over their already unfavorable situation, and everyone felt a little hopeless,
Originally, the British thought that even if Europe could not keep them, they could go to Canada, but now that the vanguard of the Chinese has penetrated deep into Canada, there are so many people in China, they can easily gather tens of millions of troops, and the British do not approve of retreating to Canada,
At the moment, they can only turn their eyes to South Africa, at least it is also their Dominion, where they are all descendants of the British, and the surrounding area is their colony, and the resources are also very rich, and far away from the European continent, it is not easy for the Germans to fight here,
"Your Majesty, the current situation is changing rapidly, and I am afraid that we will not be able to go according to the original plan."
"Mr. Prime Minister, I also think so, the Axis powers seem to be getting bigger and bigger, and if we continue to adopt this attitude of sitting on the hill and watching the tiger, I am afraid that the United States and France may not be able to hold out until the United States develops nuclear weapons."
"Yes, the future of the allies depends on the nuclear weapons of the Americans."
"But it's a pity, if the Americans have nuclear weapons and we don't, I'm afraid our world number one will also be snatched by the Americans, and it is unlikely that they will be able to take it back."
"Your Majesty, that's a matter for the future, if you can't keep Britain now, any world hegemony is nothing."
"That's right, it's just that the thought of the empire that the sun never sets is declining in the hands of the widow, and the widow's heart is not very comfortable." George VI is a little unpleasant,
Everyone understands that there is no eternal overlord, but when they become overlords, no one wants to come down from this position.
"By the way, Prime Minister, from tomorrow we will increase our assistance to France, and in addition, our soldiers should also set off from home, and we will only be safe if France continues to resist."
"Understood."
And the French got the news of the British the next day, how did the French discuss with the British before, the British just didn't agree to the things that the British agreed to overnight, and the British agreed to everything, and they also wanted to send troops to help France fight against Germany,
The United States and France are naturally very happy about this, they don't know why the British have changed their nature, but for France, the British are willing to come out to help as the former world hegemon, then their pressure is much less, and the Americans are now facing the aggressive offensive of the Chinese in Alaska, and they also hope that the British can play a role in Europe to resist the German army,
Today, for the Allies, they do not expect to rely on conventional military force to defeat the Axis powers, to be honest they don't believe in it, and now everyone's expectations are on the atomic bomb.
Truman and Marshall were like a pair of good friends at this time, and the two were almost together now, at least not far away, except for going to defecate and sleeping.
Truman looked at the current situation, he didn't know what to say, but Marshall spoke first: "The Chinese don't know what tricks they used, not only to defeat the powerful Pacific Fleet, but also to land in Alaska, although the current situation is somewhat unfavorable to us, but I think the greatest danger to us now is not the Axis countries, but the mentality of the people at home." ”
"There has been no war in the United States since the Civil War for more than 80 years, the Chinese have landed in Alaska, many people are going to fight a Chinese, and the rich have moved some of their property to places they think are safe, of course, outside North America, and the actions of these people have caused financial turmoil, which in turn affects the stability of the country."
Truman nodded, the Pacific Fleet was defeated, the squadron landed in Alaska, the stock market in the United States fell sharply, some people have already gone bankrupt, if it goes on like this, there will inevitably be serious civil strife in the United States, and then the Chinese will be able to seize the United States without much effort,
American newspapers, with the support of the government, have explained to the public various reasons why victory will belong to the United States, exhorting the public not to panic, if the public panics, it will lead to national turmoil, so cheap are the Chinese and Germans, if the public continues to maintain a normal mentality, what to do and what to do, then as long as it holds out for a year and a half, the US nuclear bomb will come out, and then China and Germany can be blown into hell,
The mood of the American public has stabilized under the propaganda of the media, but this does not affect the rich, especially the Jews, the Jews already have their own country, and now the situation in the United States is very unstable, and the relationship between Israel and China is not bad, at least China did not destroy Israel, which shows this.
It can be said that which country in the world is the safest today is probably not China, Germany, Britain and the United States, nor South Africa, but Israel, because Israel has friendships with both sides.
The Israeli government has mobilized the Israelis in the United States to meet Israel appropriately, and their money can be transferred to Israel, just keep the property.
They did this so that if the United States was not occupied, the Jews could continue to control the United States as a basis for Israel's existence.
"But the Jews are not very peaceful, according to the intelligence of the intelligence bureau, the Jews have transferred a lot of their money back to Israel, if they don't have that much influence in the United States, we don't have to worry, but the problem is that they control the economic lifeline of the United States, and they will transfer a lot of money, which will definitely cause immeasurable losses to the American economy."
"So I'm going to use my presidential powers to recoup that loss, Marshall, how likely do you think I'm going to succeed." Truman intended to follow Roosevelt's hardline policy to save the United States, so that the United States would not be consumed in turmoil.
"Mr. President, I personally agree with your move, but the Jews have a lot of power in Congress, I'm afraid it's not that easy, since you became president, we have given up Australia, and now we have lost in the Pacific, and even Alaska is about to fall, if you take coercive measures, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble, and maybe Congress will ask you to step down."
"So what to do, do you really have to go to Congress to lobby, so you don't know how long it will take."
"I think you should not come out first, I will find some parliamentarians to ventilate first, let them bring it up first, and then we will come out, so it is better."
Truman nodded, this is the only way for now, after he took over the presidency, he really hasn't done anything decent, and there are a lot of shameful things.
At this time, most of Alaska was controlled by the squadron, and the guerrillas of the local military and civilian organizations were quickly cleaned up.
Now the entire Yukon River Basin, that is, the area north of the Alaska Mountains, is controlled by the squadron, but the southern part of the Alaska Mountains, including important passes and dangerous places in the mountains, is controlled by the U.S. military, and everyone understands that the core area of Alaska is this part of the southern Alaska Mountains.
The reason why the squadron attacked so quickly was that on the one hand, it used air-cushion landing craft, which completely broke the conventional landing operation method, so that the Chinese soldier you dog landed in Alaska very quickly, and the number of American troops could not densely defend all the coasts, and the places they defended were all those coasts and beaches that could land.
For example, there are many reefs, or places where the coast is relatively high and not suitable for landing, most of them are not defended, but they have gathered heavy troops in important strongholds and passes in the rear.
Landing is not a problem, China still has a large number of helicopters that can be airborne at will, which makes the US military be beaten in a hurry, they have never encountered such an opponent, and the Chinese war laws are completely unsuitable for them,
Some of these people have fought with the Japanese, and some have fought with the Germans in Europe, but whether the Germans or the Japanese have only retreated in the face of the powerful firepower of the American army, or have been beaten very badly, they have to evacuate, but the Chinese or i are more powerful than theirs, and the attack is disorderly, the Chinese will attack day and night, the American troops on the front line will never sleep, if they dare to sleep, the helicopter that takes care of people may land directly on their positions at any time,
During this period of attack, the U.S. military has lost more than 120,000 people, most of whom were killed, and MacArthur was very shocked by this.
Stilwell and Chennault are the same, after the Chinese landed, their attack capabilities far exceeded their imagination, MacArthur was originally a German attack he was very sure to hold Alaska, at least not defeated quickly, but the squadron attacked, and it was that strange way to attack, so that they could not be guarded, more American ordinary officers and soldiers were even more frightened, the Chinese will appear at any time and anywhere, relying on that helicopter,
MacArthur didn't expect this thing to be used like this, if he had thousands of them, he wouldn't be so passive, but the helicopter in his hand is not comparable to the Chinese, and the performance is far inferior to the Chinese's.
In order to avoid greater losses, MacArthur ordered all the American troops to retreat to the southern part of the Alaska Mountains.
The Alaska Mountains are high and forested, which is not conducive to China's mechanization and Chinese helicopter operations, and the US military has many fortifications on the mountains, and it is permanent, MacArthur believes that it is very difficult for the Chinese to seize these places, of course, they prevent the Chinese from attacking from the sea, if they occupy Anchorage and surround them in the mountains, then they will be as sad as the French army on the Maginot Line.
