1273 For the American Working Class 1274 American Labor Party

While the Americans on the island of Newfoundland were busy escaping, Captain Cook of the British Royal Navy had already found the organization. Pen ~ fun ~ Ge www.biquge.info the torpedo boat he was riding in held a white flag at 5 a.m. on April 30, and not long after he encountered a German S-100 torpedo boat. When the other party saw that his torpedo boat had a white flag on it, he did not fire, but approached and aimed it at the 40mm machine gun for questioning. Colonel Cook, who happened to know some German, explained his intentions, and at about 7:15 a.m. on April 30, he was taken aboard the battleship Bismarck, which was cruising off Concepson Bay.

The battleship, which was supposed to be a sworn enemy of the British Royal Navy, was now flying a combined British navy, land and air force flag - indicating that a senior general who could command the British navy, land and air force was aboard the warship. This high-ranking general is none other than Harold. Field Marshal Alexander, who at the same time served as the joint commander of the European Expeditionary Force, along with General Rommel of Germany. Because of his higher rank than Rommel, he was also the nominal supreme commander of the expeditionary force.

"James, I didn't expect to see you on Newfoundland, it's so nice."

On the Bismarck, the lavishly appointed officer's room was Harold. Alexander and James. Colonel Cook shook hands warmly, they had known each other for a long time - before the outbreak of war, the circle of colonels in the British Army and Royal Navy was not large, and most of them knew each other.

"Marshal, I am also honored to meet you on a battleship of the Imperial German Navy." James. There seemed to be a thorn in Cook's words. It's no wonder how could he, as a colonel in the Royal Navy, forget the former glory of the British Empire?

Marshal Alexander shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "I was originally on the battleship Prince of Wales in the Royal Navy. ”

"The battleship Prince of Wales?" Colonel Cook raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, we repaired it, and now the battleship, which has a new look and has become the flagship of the Royal Navy, is heading for Newfoundland." Field Marshal Alexander said, "I was on board the Prince of Wales, but the Germans dropped an atomic bomb into Concepson Bay. That's why I got on the SCHOTT Sunderland seaplane...... I had to stop them from dropping the atomic bomb on Newfoundland. ”

"Can you still stop this kind of thing?" Colonel Cook asked suspiciously.

"Of course," Marshal Alexander smiled, "or the two atomic bombs that were dropped on the Bay of Fundy would have been on the heads of Churchill Naval Fortress and Pershing Fortress (also on the Avalon Peninsula)." ”

"What? The Bay of Fundy was also bombed by an atomic bomb? "Because now there is confusion in the Allied chain of command on Newfoundland, James . Colonel Cook did not yet know that the Germans had blown up the U.S. Task Force 56.

"Yes," said Marshal Alexander, "those two atomic bombs were meant to blow you up, but Her Majesty did not agree, so they were thrown on a pile of American aircraft carriers...... Probably sank and blew up seven or eight Essex-class aircraft carriers, right? But no, even if they weren't blown up, those warships were useless. ”

"It's useless if you don't blow it up? Why? "There's something strange about Colonel Cook.

"Because of the ...... of nuclear radiation contamination," Alexander said with a frown, "I don't quite understand, it's all said by the Germans, because the atomic bomb explosion occurred in the water, so it will produce very serious nuclear pollution, and the ships that have been flooded by the tide of nuclear pollution will have to be scrapped." Failure to do so would put the officers and men of the Navy who use them with cancer. ”

"What? And this kind of thing? ”

"yes, didn't you see the Germans on the S-class torpedo boats when you came in white, with masks and protective goggles? This is to prevent nuclear contamination. ”

"Then I'......," Colonel Cook remembered that he had just passed through the sea area where the atomic bomb had exploded on the afternoon of the 29th in a torpedo boat, and that he was still wet with the sea...... Is it about to get cancer?

Seeing the water stains on Cook's military uniform and his iron-blue face, Marshal Alexander understood a little, so he comforted: "There are German doctors on the Bismarck who specialize in treating radiation sickness...... Once the allegiance of Churchill naval fortress to the queen has been discussed, let them check it on you at once. ”

"Okay, okay, then let's hurry." James. Colonel Cook nodded hurriedly.

……

"Reich Marshal, good news, the naval fortress of Churchill has surrendered! And...... The Americans are withdrawing from the Avalons! ”

"Victory!"

"Long live victory!"

"Long live victory!"

Berlin time, on the afternoon of April 30, 1945, the good news reached the general staff of Tsosen. Although it had been expected for a long time, there was still a cheer in the Grand General Staff.

Because anyone who can work here knows what it means for the Avalon Peninsula to change hands? Moreover, all of them already knew that the US government had formally sued for peace with Germany through the Roman Empire and was willing to pay reparations in accordance with Germany's demands!

The United States' offer for reparations and peace, coupled with the change of ownership of the Avalon Peninsula, basically means that the world war that has been fought for nearly six years is finally coming to a successful end.

And the German Empire undoubtedly won this world war, and very completely.

"Reich Marshal," Hirschmann's private secretary, Natalie, appeared in the Joint Intelligence Command Center filled with cheers, and she leaned over to Hersmann and whispered, "Chancellor Hitler's call, please go to the Chancellery immediately." ”

"Okay, I'll be right over." Hersmann smiled and nodded, knowing that Hitler already knew the news that the Avalon Peninsula was about to fall to the Germans.

As German Chancellor, he had the right to be informed of the course of the war, so his military aide-de-camp, Major General Keitel, was always in contact with the Grand General Staff.

"I'm going to see the Prime Minister," Hersman said to Raeder and Guderian, who were in the Joint Intelligence Command Center, "and it looks like the war is really coming to an end...... Now it is time to consider post-war arrangements in North America and Australia. ”

Post-war Europe and South America had already been arranged, the fate of the Middle East and India was also in the hands of the German Reich, and now North America and Australia were left unarranged.

"Imperial Marshal, we don't need to attack the American mainland anymore, do we?" 1st Quartermaster Guderian asked.

Plans for air strikes and nuclear strikes on the US mainland were also part of the Fort Gauch plan! In the minds of the German General Staff, the loss of Newfoundland or the Avalon Peninsula on Newfoundland was probably not enough to convince most Americans of the reality of defeat. So the dropping of an atomic bomb on the US mainland may well be necessary!

"Not necessarily," Hersman thought for a moment, "preparation still has to be done, after all, we haven't won the final yet...... Although the Americans are now frightened by three atomic bombs, they are not without the strength to resist. Truman may really want to ask for peace, but now the domestic politics in the United States are very complicated, and even Roosevelt cannot control it, let alone Truman, a president who does not have the support of a majority party in Congress? ”

……

For the United States of America at the end of April 1945, the search for peace was no longer a mere diplomatic task, but a power reshuffle involving the political power of various factions in the United States.

Taking into account the weakness of the Democratic Party in parliament, the aggressiveness of the Bolshevik and Fascist parties, and the upcoming midterm elections of 1946. The game now revolving over the sum seems to be about to decide where the real cake of the United States of America belongs!

Compared with the huge compensation of 200 billion to 400 billion US dollars, the United States of America, the chosen country, is a truly huge wealth, and whoever owns it will have an inexhaustible wealth of wealth.

In addition, whoever emerges victorious in this power game will decide which of the countries will swallow the bitter fruit of America's defeat!

Is it now the greatest working people in the United States who will pay for the defeat, or will the monopoly capitalists, with their enormous wealth, pay for the reparations?

On his way to Chicago by train from Washington, D.C., Wallace, who had just left office, was working with one of his key allies, Philip Brown, president of the Confederation of Industrial Trade Unions. Molay discusses how to defend the interests of the American working class in the future – and by the way, hollow out the pockets of the American bourgeoisie.

There is no way around this, and the United States, which has lost the world war, has no win-win route for the distribution of domestic interests.

Now either the working class loses all the rights it has had since Roosevelt's New Deal, hands the country back to the capitalists, and bears another hyperinflation, which is actually a forced tax on the whole population, which can help the US government raise enough supplies and gold and silver to pay war reparations in the short term.

Either it would be to deprive the American bourgeoisie and impose heavy taxes on them to raise reparations, or even to go one step further in nationalizing the United States and follow the line that the Soviet Union once followed.

But Wallace and Philip. Molay had no idea of making a revolution, and their line was still a legitimate struggle. But the legal struggle faces a big problem, and the legislative power in the United States is now out of the hands of the working class.

The Bolshevik Party had 32 seats in the House of Representatives and four in the Senate, while Wallace's influence on the New Deal coalition of the American Democratic Party had only 19 seats in the House of Representatives and none in the Senate. Even if you count the 38 seats in the House of Representatives, which ostensibly claim to represent the interests of workers, the total number of seats is only 89, not even a quarter of the House of Representatives.

"Philip," Wallace had already thought of a countermeasure. "Although we have to fight legally, we cannot rely on a majority vote in Congress to win," Molay said. We will not win, at least until the 1946 midterm elections. The only way to do this is to go on strike and protest in the streets. ”

1274 American Labor Party

"Strikes and street protests?" Philip. Molay thought for a moment, "That's no problem, I think the president of the Coal Miners' Union, John . Lewis would also support us, breaking the wartime practice of not striking in '43 and launching a general strike of 500,000 coal miners. ”

John. Lewis was a major figure in the American labor movement, a coal miner, a longtime leader of the United American Coal Miners, the founder and former president of the Confederation of Industrial Trade Unions, and of course an active supporter of Roosevelt's New Deal. However, because of his opposition to Roosevelt's re-election as president for a third term, he resigned as chairman of the "Federation of Industry" in 1940. Soon after, he parted ways with the chairman of the "Federation of Industry and Industry" because of the issue of "no strike in wartime", and also led the United States Coal Mineers to withdraw from the "Federation of Industry and Industry", and launched a wartime general strike, forcing the management to increase the wages of coal miners by $1.5 a day.

Such a ruthless man, who could put the interests of the workers above the outcome of the war, would naturally not agree to allow the working class to pay for the defeat of the United States. So Philip. Molay thought that Lewis and his coalminers' federation could be brought back to the "industrial union" again, and everyone could work together against the evil capitalists.

"Okay, I'll go with you to see Lewis when we get to Chicago," Wallace, who had also dealt with Lewis, and knew that this man was very capable of causing trouble, and he nodded, "We must pull him to our side, if we let Lindbergh get the first step, we will be in trouble." ”

John. Although Lewis was the leader of the labor movement, he was not pro-Soviet, much less Bolshevik, not even a leftist. He was a "gangster" type of worker leader, who dared to fight and rush, and had no political ideas, but was bent on raising wages for the workers.

Such a workers' leader could easily be co-opted by the fascist party, which would have no basis in the trade unions. In this way, in the 1946 midterm elections, the fascists were able to grab more territory that originally belonged to the Democratic Party.

"But in what name are we going to organize strikes and marches?" Philip. Molay then asked, "Are we going to organize a political strike?" How do we call on workers? Henry, you know, the workers in America are short-sighted, they only look out for immediate interests. ”

This is a problem, American workers are less likely to go on strike for political purposes, and the main purpose of their strikes is to increase wages and benefits, and they have little interest in helping working-class parties seize control of Congress.

"And it's 1945, a little more than a year before the midterm congressional elections." "If Truman colludes with the Republicans to complete peace talks before the midterm elections," Morley said, "It would be a fait accompli for the American working class to be sacrificed." ”

"This is actually Truman's conspiracy!" Wallace gritted his teeth and replied: "In his plan, peace talks must be done before the midterm elections, using the advantage of the Democrats (some members of the Congress who support Truman) and the Republicans to pass a peace treaty that is unfavorable to the United States." At the same time, in exchange (in exchange for Republican support), resolutions to repeal a series of new laws were passed.

After such a deal, the Democratic Party may collapse in the 1946 midterm elections, but the Republican Party will not collapse, but will continue to grow stronger and win a majority of seats in Congress while absorbing some of the political forces of the Democratic Party.

After that, there is a possibility that a Republican-controlled Congress will support a Democratic government in the US political arena. And Truman, with the support of Republican lawmakers, was able to hold him president until the end of his term. The Republicans can take advantage of a Democratic administration that is destined to have no preconditions to do what it is inconvenient for them to deprive the American working class and sell out American interests! ”

Wallace is a veteran of Washington, and knows everything about what Truman and the Republicans are going to do next -- perhaps Truman himself has not figured out what to do next, but Wallace has anticipated the only way he can go.

"What should we do?" When Wallace said this, Molay, the union leader, was already a little confused.

"We must delay the peace talks," Wallace said, "and we must not allow Truman to finish the peace talks in 1945...... If they are going to collude to betray the interests of the United States and the American working class, then they should do it this election season. Because the votes in the hands of the American people are only most valuable when they are elected. ”

Philip. "So we can have enough hope in the 1946 midterm elections to stop Truman and the Republican Party?" ”

"It can't be," Wallace shook his head, "but we're going to get enough seats in Congress to guarantee that we can lead the struggles of working people in the American political arena in the future." ”

"That is, we still can't stop Truman from betraying the interests of the United States and the working class?"

Philip. Molay was slightly disappointed, he had thought that Wallace's methods would at least prevent the repeal of the new law, but it turned out to be an electoral maneuver.

Wallace glanced at Molay and whispered, "It's not meaningless...... If we want to truly protect the interests of the American working class, we must lead them to the legislative and executive power of the United States. The 1946 midterm elections will be the beginning of our ambitious goal. ”

"We are...... American Bolshevik Party? Molay asked, somewhat uncertainly.

He was a New Deal, not a Bolshevik, and he did not want the United States to become a GCIST country like the Soviet Union.

"No, I'm not a GC bugger." Wallace laughed, "We mean the Workers' Party of America...... A new party that represents the broadest interests of the working people of the United States. It would include moderate Bolshevik and Democratic Left Pai as well as leaders of labor groups. ”

It turned out that Wallace did not want to take the left Pai of the Democratic Party to vote for G at all, but wanted to establish an American Workers' Party with himself as its leader, and also wanted the American Bolshevik Party to join the Workers' Party.

Morley was still a little skeptical, "Henry, but do you have any way to get those Bolsheviks to come with us?" ”

"Yes!" Wallace glanced at Molay, "We have a union, and ...... I still have a way to hold back the Truman-led peace talks. ”

"Hold off Truman's peace talks?" "How?" Morlay asked, "How?" ”

"Tongde!" Wallace replied in a low voice, "There is a secret diplomatic liaison between Truman and Hitler that bypasses the Reichstag and the State Department...... Once this matter is revealed, Truman will face the danger of impeachment. ”

……

"Yes, there is a secret channel of communication between me and Truman."

Just when Truman was about to face the "Tongdemen investigation", Adolf . Hitler, on the other hand, generously admitted to Hersmann the "Tongmei".

However, his "Tongmei" did not violate German law, and with the strength of the Nazi Party, it was impossible to pass the impeachment of Hitler in the German Reichstag.

"Judging by the voluntary withdrawal of American troops from the Avalonian Peninsula," Hitler told Hersmann, "the secret channel between me and Truman was working, and Truman's sincerity for peace was proven." I think we should have a ceasefire first, and then we should have peace talks. ”

"As long as the Avalon Peninsula is taken, a ceasefire will be ceasefire." Hersman gently turned the coffee cup in his hand and asked with a smile, "Adolf, how much should we ask Truman?" ”

The 500 billion euromarks was the asking price before Germany took the Avalonian Peninsula on Newfoundland and dropped three atomic bombs.

"What about 10000-800 billion euromarks?" Hitler weighed and said, "Of which 75 billion to 80 billion are paid in gold and silver, and the rest we collect grain, livestock, cotton, crude steel, coal, petroleum products, and non-ferrous metals...... In addition to gold, silver and a part of the grain and livestock that Russia urgently needs, the rest of the indemnity can be paid in 15-20 years. ”

Hitler did not seem to want to force the United States, the golden egg-laying old hen of democracy - he would soon be the head of the socialist family of the United States of Europe, where there were hundreds of millions of Aryan masters...... In the future, there will be more places to spend money on construction and welfare, and of course we must find ways to get more money from the Americans. So if the United States is really in chaos, it is not in the interests of Hitler and the Nazi Party.

"So what about Canada, Australia and New Zealand, and the Caribbean islands?" Hersman then asked.

"Canada must be controlled," Hitler said, "and let it be a kingdom under the British Empire, with either Princess Margaret or Queen Elizabeth as the king...... This is the British themselves.

Australia and New Zealand, we have to come to an agreement with the Japanese first, otherwise we can't put too many troops there. In addition, Japan is, after all, our friend, and since we have made peace with the United States, then they should also negotiate with the United States. ”

The question of the negotiations between Japan and the United States was a bit difficult for Hitler, because the possibility of joining forces after the end of the dispute between Japan and the United States was actually detrimental to Germany. Moreover, Japan itself does not have the strength to subdue the United States, and even if the United States is now facing defeat in the Atlantic, their small military power in the Pacific can still exert tremendous pressure on Japan.

If Germany forces the United States to submit to Japan, it will actually be doing evil to clear the way for the United States and Japan to join forces!

In addition, the pro-Nazi American fascist forces had a great hatred for Japan......

Hitler was silent for a moment when he said this, then frowned and said: "As for the Caribbean islands, since Canada can be used, I am not in favor of supporting the establishment of a Caribbean federation." That would be a big burden, and it is not in our interest. Moreover, the Spaniards were not Aryans, and Franco did not want to join the United States of Europe. In fact, Americans are more qualified to join the United States of Europe than the Spaniards...... If they drive out both blacks and Jews in the country. ”
