Chapter 837: Total War 13
When the news of the near-total annihilation of the mechanized infantry brigade sent by Grand Canada to cooperate with the U.S. military reached neighboring countries, the U.S. side was already a little struggling to ride a tiger.
The Pentagon is still a group of senior US defense officials and generals who recently issued an order for an all-out counterattack against the Decepticons.
At this time, a kind of wordless embarrassment and silence made the atmosphere in this conference room with the highest level of confidentiality very uncomfortable.
It took a while for a general at the North American Air Defense Command to take the lead in speaking, "There has been an explosion over there in Grand Canada, this may be their heaviest loss since World War II, or did it happen on the mainland." In the past half hour, the North American Air Defense Command has received calls from the deputy commander, the Minister of Defense of Metro Canada, and the Prime Minister of Metro Canada, and they want us to give an explanation! ”
The North American Air Defense Command (NORAD) is a military defense organization jointly established by the United States and neighboring Canada in order to defend against the Soviet Union during the Cold War.
NORAD is generally commanded by a senior general sent by the U.S. military, and the deputy commander is on the side of Greater Canada.
Although it is only an economic colony of the United States, after all, it is also one of the few industrial countries on the earth, and under normal circumstances, the appearance of the deputy commander of the North American Air Defense Command in Greater Canada is enough for the United States to treat it seriously.
And this time, because of the annihilation of a mechanized infantry brigade in Canada, and at the same time there are three senior military and political officials who want to explain in person, even if these officials in the Pentagon usually have their eyes growing and their heads are on top of their heads, they all feel very difficult at this time.
"According to the intelligence transmitted by satellites, it can be determined that at least more than 5,000 soldiers have been lost on the Canada side, which can be said to be their largest casualty since World War II!"
Grand Canada was a British colony before World War II, and in World War I and World War II, it conscripted troops to fight in Europe for the benefit of its overlord, and paid great sacrifices.
Even this country, in order to curry favor with its neighbors after World War II, has participated in many wars initiated by the United States.
But this is the first time since World War II that Great Canada has lost a loss like today.
A mechanized infantry brigade was almost wiped out in formation, and although the opponent was aliens, the reason was to cooperate with the American army.
Even if the Americans are used to being arrogant and domineering, they really need to give an explanation to Da Cana in this case.
Otherwise, it will be difficult for them to maintain a close alliance with Grand Canada in the future.
There was silence in the conference room again, and from time to time documents were opened? Or a muffled cough.
No one spoke up first at this time? Because two countries are now involved, how do you compensate the Grand Canada side? Obviously, the United States is going to shed some blood this time.
The new Minister of Defense after a long period of silence? Finally took the initiative to take over the topic, "Over there in Grand Canada?" I will report truthfully to Mr. President, so there is no need to discuss it here! ”
With his words? The atmosphere in the conference room was suddenly relaxed.
Everyone knows about the new Minister of Defense? is the henchman of the new president.
Now that he has taken over the most troublesome political issues, the remaining military aspects will be much easier to solve.
A high-ranking general immediately followed his words and started chatting? The data taken by our satellites has already been processed? The previous missile washing the ground obviously caused a lot of damage to those aliens. From the photos taken by satellites, it is already possible to establish that at least three to fifty or so aliens, destroyed by our missiles! ”
Many people in the conference room already know this information? Someone immediately chimed in: "Obviously, this batch of invading aliens is not as difficult as we feared before!" ”
"No, no, no? Although nearly half of the invading aliens have been dealt with by our missiles, judging by the intelligence of the rapid rout of the mechanized infantry brigade in Grand Canada? When it comes to ground combat, we don't have much advantage over aliens. ”
Army building in Metro Canada? Almost staring at their neighbors to learn.
In a sense? A mechanized infantry brigade in the United States compared to Canada? In terms of numbers and weapons, they were not much more numerous than Grand Canada.
At most, because of the perennial recklessness of military force and the export of wars, individual soldiers may have more combat experience.
Therefore, when the army of Grand Canada was almost completely wiped out in the face of the Decepticons, the US military really had to send ground troops in, and the result might not be much better.
"The aliens have lost most of them, but their air combat power is still ......"
"Yes, the intelligence from the Great Canada side shows that their mechanized infantry brigade, which was almost completely annihilated, was attacked by several F-16/F-15/F-18 and even F-22 fighters that looked like ours when attacked!"
It was a terrible experience, even though they had already known that one of the Decepticons that had invaded this time was a Decepticon that could transform into a U.S. fighter plane when the vanguard sent by the Air Force was attacked.
In the past, when the U.S. military was still working with the Autobots, they already knew from the Autobots that the Cybertrons could scan for certain machines and weapons and use their full combat power perfectly.
The highest work of your own military technology is easily stolen by the opponent.
One can imagine how bad the mood of these US generals and hawkish officials in the defense department is.
However, the decision still needs to be made as soon as possible!
"It's hard to deal with those aliens just by relying on our air combat power! But if we put in the ground forces, then we will probably be like the current Grand Canada! ”
"But will those aliens stay there forever, and what if they leave New York and try to get into the United States?"
"I don't think we need to worry about that, our satellites have been monitoring Africa and South America, and those aliens have been mining everywhere since they landed on Earth, and obviously those machines need more metal ore to replicate more machines!"
"But we're not aliens, and no one can guarantee that those robots will stay there honestly as we think!"
As usual with the usual military meetings, this time the military meeting against the invading Decepticons quickly became a mess.
Fortunately, all the generals and officials of the Ministry of National Defense who were invited to attend the meeting knew that the military situation did not wait for anyone, and although there were constant quarrels, they still made a decision through continuous discussions and compromises.
"The Navy is ready, two Ticonderoga-class cruisers and five Burke-class destroyers have set off, and we have four more submarines that have entered Hudson Bay first, and warships are loaded with more than two hundred Tomahawk cruise missiles!"
"Let the Air Force start preparing, this time mobilizing at least three air wings...... It is said that the aliens are very afraid of electromagnetic weapons, and a group of electronic warfare aircraft will be transferred to ......"
"By the way, inform the Tomb Wind side, let them get ready, and prepare for a ground battle with the aliens as the vanguard!"
