Chapter 428: The Damnation Plan
"This is our report on the battle damage since the Battle of Toying..."The Millican Federation, White House, Conference Room, Ace Station, asked the secretary to distribute a thick stack of materials to the members of the council, his face was gloomy.
Over the years, with the covert support of Yun Shibao, he has been promoted from a small mayor of New York City to deputy secretary of state, which can be described as a high power.
After receiving Yun Shibao's order, he immediately convened Congress as Secretary of State to advance the "Heavenly Punishment Project." ”
"Since the Pearl Harbor incident, we have successively deployed eight aircraft carrier battle groups in the Far East, and landed as many as 3 million combat troops on the island nation..."
"It is true that we have achieved a lot of results, but at the same time, our battle losses are also extremely terrifying, in the past four months of landing operations, we have 500,000 soldiers left in Dongying soil forever, and the materials stored in front of our station have also consumed nearly one-third..."
"But the island nation is still resisting, they are all soldiers, old and young, using human bombs, teeth, knives, guns and sticks to resist, their will to fight and confidence are very resolute."
"Obviously, our original plan to use conventional means of war to force Dongying has failed, and we cannot continue to waste the lives of our soldiers in a small place, I propose to end the war in the Far East with nuclear weapons as soon as possible, and to deal with the German Empire, which has annexed the whole of Europe and is rapidly rising..."
Glancing at the councilors in the conference room, Ace said impassionedly.
"No, no, Your Excellency Ace, nuclear weapons are our hole cards against Germany, and they must not be exposed at this time, I think the war in the Far East can still be solved by conventional forces..."
"Dongying has run out of ammunition and food, and they will surrender soon..."Rosfoy, frowning, was the first to stand up and veto Ace's proposal.
In Roseevelt's view, Dongying is nothing more than a disease of ringworm and scabies, and Germany, which is digesting European territory and opening up the energy base in Africa, is the future enemy of Millican.
Nuclear weapons are the trump card weapons that Rosevelt forced Germany to surrender, and the use of nuclear weapons in Dongying at this time is equivalent to a cannon to fight mosquitoes, which is not the most appropriate time.
"Your Excellency, I know that you have a close relationship with the British Crown and are anxious to restore their country, but please recognize your position, your words and deeds are related to the interests of the entire 150 million people of Millican..."
"We must be quick to cut through the mess and end the war in the Far East as soon as possible, instead of continuing to be stuck in the quagmire of the Far East..."
"Your Excellency Ace, I understand your feelings, believe me, at most half a month, the Dongying people will surrender, and nuclear weapons on the heads of the Germans are the most in the interests of Millican..."
"Then let's vote..."Ace glanced at Rosevelt deeply, a hint of murder flashed in his eyes, and then he sat back in his chair with a calm face.
Judging from the current performance of the parliamentarians, he knows that the possibility of carrying out the "Damnation Plan" is very small, after all, everyone can see that the island nation is already at the end of its strength, and the German Empire is strong, once the nuclear weapons are exposed, with German technology, the nuclear bomb can be developed very quickly, and at that time, Millican will have no advantage in the face of Germany, which also has nuclear weapons.
At this time, it is indeed not in Millican's interests to expose nuclear weapons.
However, it doesn't matter much, with the young master's character of taking one step at a time, since he let himself promote the "Heavenly Punishment Plan" at this time, he must have a backhand.
Just when Ace, Roseeffre and the others thought that the overall situation had been decided, a confidential secretary in military uniform hurriedly walked in from outside the door and whispered something in the ear of Marshal Millest.
"Your Excellency the President, the German Empire announces that it has developed the atomic bomb and has sent an expeditionary fleet to the Far East to support its allies..."
"Dongying immediately announced that he would go all out to resist the war, and would rather defend the whole people than defend Dongying itself, and the anti-war mood was very resolute..."After the confidential secretary left, Milleste stood up from his seat with a serious expression.
As Mileste's words fell, Rosevelt's face instantly became gloomy.
"Your Excellency, don't hesitate, while the German reinforcements have not yet arrived in the Far East, we must use nuclear weapons to raze Dongying and end the fighting in the Far East, otherwise we will probably face double pressure from the East and Germany..."
If Ace couldn't seize such an opportunity, he would not have been promoted to the oldest secretary of state in just a few years.
"Your Excellency Millest, is it true that Germany already has nuclear weapons, and is it possible that they deliberately released smoke bombs?" After a long silence, Roseford looked at Mileste expectantly, hoping to get a negative answer from his mouth.
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, but our scientific research department has detected a violent energy fluctuation in a certain area controlled by Germany in Africa, and it is preliminarily inferred that the energy wave should be equivalent to the equivalent of 50,000 tons of TNT..."Millester smiled bitterly.
"Our maximum yield of nuclear bombs is 30,000 tons, so to speak, Germany has indeed mastered nuclear weapons, and the technology is much more advanced than our country..."
Originally, he planned to wait for the settlement of Dongying, and directly use nuclear weapons to force Germany to surrender, so as to obtain the greatest benefits in this war.
In this way, after the end of the war, Millican's territory will expand several times and become a real global hegemon.
But now that Germany has also mastered nuclear weapons, from Rosevelt's vision, it can naturally be seen that it is difficult for two countries with nuclear weapons to fight.
Next, Millican must end the war in the Far East as soon as possible, taking advantage of Germany's inaction, so as to ensure that the interests of the United States are not violated after the war.
He knew that the post-war pattern was likely to be based on the territory currently occupied by the Mead side.
"So, as for Secretary of State Ace's proposal to use nuclear weapons against Toei, please show your hands to vote." Taking a deep breath, Rosfford's face quickly returned to calm and turned to everyone.
As he spoke, he was the first to raise his hand.
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
Everyone looked at each other and raised their right hands.
"Then, I announce that the plan to use nuclear weapons against Dongying will be passed."
"The first nuclear bombs, two." Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Rosevelt glanced around and said lightly.
