"This clause is just nonsense!" Charlotte slapped the table hard, "How did the negotiators choose!" ”

Eisenhower and the general's staff looked at each other, and the expressions on their faces showed some injustice: this negotiating secret envoy was really not their choice.

Charlotte rarely slaps the table like this, and slaps so hard. But the president quickly calmed down.

"We have to turn the situation back on the front," she said, looking at the generals, "otherwise we will remain passive in the negotiations, do you have any good ideas?" ”

The generals and staff looked at each other again, and finally Eisenhower replied: "We have several plans, for example, to carry out a landing operation in the rear of the German army's now stretched supply lines, cut off the supply lines and encircle the German army in turn." The battlefield in North Africa is actually a long strip, as long as we cut off the area of the sea, which is only about 100 kilometers wide......"

"That sounds good, so how about starting with this plan?" Charlotte replied with some impatience, "Or is there something that prompted you to abandon this plan?" ”

"Yes, Miss President. After careful study, our staff officers believed that if the landing place was too close to the main German front, it would immediately be hit by a strong counterattack and be knocked out to the sea, after all, the number of heavy equipment sent to the beachhead for landing would certainly not be very large, and it would be very difficult to face the German heavy troops. And if we landed far from the main German forces, we would have to face the superior air forces of the German army. Theoretically, the closer we are to Luncia and Sicily, the more dangerous our landing will be. ”

"What about transferring our aircraft carriers to ensure air supremacy?" Charlotte said, turning her head to look at the admirals, "Isn't it feasible for naval aviation to guarantee air supremacy?" ”

"The Navy doesn't have jets, Miss President," replied the admiral respectfully, "and I think it's a bit difficult to rely on propeller fighters to completely wrest air supremacy from jets." ”

"The Army Aviation does have jets," the commander of the Eighth Air Force took over, "but similar to the situation encountered by the German jets, our jets have a limited combat radius, even smaller than the combat radius of the German jets, and if the landing is carried out far from the main German forces in North Africa, the Army Aviation jets will not be able to provide cover for the landing at all." ”

Charlotte couldn't help but sigh.

"Okay, I've got an idea of the limitations of this plan, is there anything else?"

"Throw in the superior Divine Queen's power for a ground attack." Eisenhower immediately submitted another plan, but this time Charlotte rejected it outright.

"This is impossible, although we received the exiled Austro-Monkey goddess from the Russians, but now we are still at a disadvantage in number overall, and the Germans have a new type of magic armor, and we don't know when it will be sent to the battlefield again. So we must be careful not to use our power to give the Germans any chance. ”

"Then, we are left with the only option of continuing to increase troops to the front." Eisenhower's tone was a little helpless, "Use the superiority in troops and logistics to offset the superiority of the Germans in tactics and soldier skills." ”

Charlotte stared at Eisenhower and said with a gloomy face: "That is, the exchange of human lives for the victory of the defensive battle?" ”

Eisenhower nodded, and then defended: "War is originally a game of exchanging human lives for victory, and the difference is only in the efficiency of exchange. ”

"If I nod in agreement with you here, what's the difference between me and that Russian madman Iron Ji?" Charlotte asked coldly, "It's okay to transfer troops to the front, no problem, but you can't exchange human lives for the idea of victory." I approve the transfer of troops because when we are in the upper hand, our losses should be reduced, you know, reduced! And the greater the superiority in troops, the smaller the losses! This is the normal battle damage curve, the larger the base, the smaller the absolute number and percentage of battle damage, you know? ”

Eisenhower nodded: "Of course I understand. I'm sure Bradley on the front line won't waste the reinforcements we've mobilized in the past, and he'll put them to good use. ”

"Well, I don't know what happened, but Patton had kept the Germans a hundred or two hundred kilometers east of Algiers. It's only been a few days now, and let's see where Bradley has gone. His only merit was to allow his troops to retreat faster than the Germans could attack, and to prevent the troops from being annihilated by the Germans in the desert. Of course, considering the factors of the change of generals, I can't conclude that he is a mediocre talent at this time, and I have to look at his appearance later, and I hope he will not disappoint me. ”

Eisenhower swallowed, Bradley was the one he patted his chest to vouch for, and in case of a mess, he, the person who was the commander-in-chief of the European theater of operations, would not be any better.

"The good news is," said one of Eisenhower's staff officers at this time, "as the front retreats, the gap between the Germans and ours in logistics is getting wider." Reports from the front show that the preparation time for artillery fire during the German attack was shortened, and the density of the usual interdiction shelling was much reduced, and it seems that there were not enough shells. Under such circumstances, I wondered if we could send out some small forces to infiltrate the enemy's occupied areas by taking advantage of the desert terrain and destroy the German supply lines in mobile warfare. ”

"Then these small units must find a way to deal with the elite mobile combat groups of the German army." Charlotte glanced at the staff officer, "You must know that it was the Germans who were the first to carry out infiltration and sabotage in the desert of North Africa, and their ability to deal with this kind of sabotage should not be weak." ”

Charlotte paused, thought for a moment, and then said, "However, this mention is worth a try. That's it, organizing brave and resolute death squads on the North African front, infiltrating behind enemy lines in jeeps and conducting mobile sabotage operations; At a later meeting, I will ask Prime Minister Churchill to have the British special forces join the fight. ”

"Gomand? Hasn't that force been active in Europe all along, targeting the factories of the Alliance for Human Innovation? Would Churchill transfer them to North Africa? ”

"If he doesn't want to move, then we'll convince him until he does."
