In the six months since the Pearl Harbor incident, the US military has been strengthening its own military strength and sparing no expense in preparing for the defense of its homeland. During this period, Roosevelt, as a wartime president, had to coordinate the work of various departments and suppress the opposition that wanted to take advantage of the situation.

Affected by the Sino-Japanese War and the fall of Venus, in the early days of the United States declaring war on the fascist forces, there was a sense of pessimism throughout the country. Many people believe that it is difficult for the United States to withstand the front and rear attacks of Japan and Germany at the same time, and some even advocate that it should surrender as soon as possible to reduce unnecessary losses.

Fortunately, these cowardly noises did not prevail, and with the uplifting effect of the Doolittle air raids on the people, Roosevelt was able to smoothly start the huge American war plane.

However, the short period of six months is limited after all, and the most lacking thing in the US Army at present is not weapons and equipment, but experienced officers and soldiers, and this problem is obviously difficult to solve by the production line. The Navy, for its part, made it clear that the Atlantic Fleet has the ability to hold off the High Seas Fleet, but it must be concentrated!

The implication is that our navy has limited energy and cannot help in ground warfare.

Thankfully, the best preserved industrial capacity of the United States after the Great Migration was there, and with the president's approval, factories began to build weapons for the army. As a result, the funding problem for many weapons programs was solved, and the army began to recruit on a large scale and expand at a frantic pace.

You must know that in the history of the US military, the Army has always been in a position of being a posterior, and the huge amount of military spending allocated by Congress every year will only be distributed to them a fraction of it. Therefore, the total strength of the U.S. Army at that time was only more than 100,000 people, and the configuration and lineup of the mecha unit should be described as shabby. Until the outbreak of the Battle of Venus, the only armored division of the US army had only more than 300 M2 light mechs.

This kind of mecha, which weighs less than 12 tons, is not only a pitiful number, but also far behind the world's top level in performance, and even the Japanese Type 97 can beat it. Fortunately, the development work of the Americans did not fall behind. The development of the new mecha has already been completed, otherwise it will really be blind!

At present, there are two types of mecha that the U.S. military has begun to mass-produce on a large scale, namely the M3 light mecha and the M3 medium mecha, both of which have significantly improved performance compared with their predecessor M2.

For the first time, the M3 Medium was equipped with a 75mm main gun, but because the portable device was not reliable enough, the M2 75 gun was moved to the lower part of the cockpit in order to solve the recoil problem when firing. Not to mention that it is inconvenient to use, it also guides the appearance of the Zì M3 medium-sized mecha to be extremely obscene, and is jokingly called "a man without pants" by the pilot.

Interestingly, at the beginning of the Battle of Venus. The Yankees, who wanted to take the opportunity to make some war money, had the Chrisler company produce a batch of M3 medium mechs, which they were going to sell to France. As a result, not long after their side began to put into production, France fell in a flash at a speed that surprised them. The unsold mechs have been handed over to the Army for early training of American pilots.

In short, the US military knows very well where its shortcomings are, and it also knows how to make up for them.

In six months, the U.S. military expanded its ground forces to 4 million and produced more than 3,000 mechs and more than 2,500 fighter jets. The strong production capacity under the wartime system has begun to emerge.

But these can only be regarded as conventional weapons, and in terms of unconventionality, the US military has a huge flaw that is not known to outsiders, that is, there is no top-level giant god soldier who can fight! As soon as the Germans did not observe the "etiquette of war", let Hercules strike. The U.S. military has no rival to it.

It is precisely because of such a fatal flaw that the top brass of the US military who know about it feels like a fish in the throat. Fortunately, Zhao Jian also knew about their worries, so Zhao Jian, who did not plan to send troops directly, took the initiative to contact Roosevelt through Guò Nimitz. Indicate that they are willing to provide a corresponding deterrent.

Hercules is certainly strong, but there are two S-level giant god soldiers on the Star Castle side, Chiyou and Joan of Arc, and 2 to 1 is enough for Hercules not to dare to shoot lightly. In addition, Zhao Jian also provided the US military with an intelligence network and electronic warfare aircraft. The composition of the German army and the progress of its preparations were all conveyed to the American army at the first time.

Up to now, the Germans had 120 divisions and more than 2 million troops ready to attack. They built a large number of landing ships using shipyards in China and the French occupation zone, and the main fleet drawn from Mercury was assembled on the lunar mainland.

In order to prevent the British Royal Navy on Mercury from coming to blow up the chrysanthemum, the Germans not only left part of the fleet on Venus to be carefully disposed, but also sent spies to destroy the fuel depot in the Portsmouth military port. The British army was careless for a moment, and sixty percent of the oil reserves turned into a big fireball that rose into the sky.

Therefore, for the US military, a vicious war is inevitable!

At this time, on the Star Castle, Zhao Jian still looked like he was ready to watch the show.

In Zhao Jian's view, although the U.S. Army has always been contemptuously called "a scout troop composed of big young masters" by the traditional military powers in Europe, in terms of the will to fight, it is enough to be proud of the French who surrendered. In addition, it is still a local battle, as long as it properly plays its own advantages, it is not a problem to block the German offensive.

The only thing that Zhao Jian couldn't get sure of was the attitude of breaking the dawn.

It stands to reason that this group of bed bugs has been developing on Mars, and the United States should be regarded as their base camp, but all signs are superficial, and Germany's strong rise has them behind it, which once made Zhao Jian think that the United States would join the fascist camp and regard the other party as a potential enemy.

However, the declaration of war by the United States made Zhao Jian understand that they were not of the same mind as Broken Dawn. Breaking the dawn and allowing the Nazi forces to attack the United States is to get rid of dissidents with the help of foreign aid, once the United States falls, this country will completely fall into the hands of the other side, which is obviously not what Zhao Jian wants to see.

So don't look at the fact that they have refused to send troops to the battle, but Zhao Jian still prepared his fleet for an attack. Joan of Arc is even ready to send the "French Division" that has completed preliminary training on the Star Castle to Mars at the right time to accumulate some actual combat experience.

But before that, they had to get Zhao Jian's approval. After all, these French troops are still nominally "mercenaries", and they rely on the supply of Star Castle for food, clothing, weapons and equipment, and Zhao Jian is their big boss, if the other party does not agree, they will not be able to go anywhere.

So Joan of Arc found Richelieu, and then told the other party very bluntly that the calamitous France had come to the time when it was time for a woman to "sacrifice her life" for the country! (To be continued......)
