Chapter 1236 1237 The curtain call of two people

Two nurses anxiously carried various medical equipment and ran into a spacious room. Next to a huge soft bed, there were doctors in white masks, as well as generals from the army and commanders of the navy. Everyone waited anxiously, waiting for a miracle to appear.

"The patient's condition is very unstable!" A doctor looked worriedly at President Roosevelt's rising blood pressure and reminded his peers: "Mr. President's blood pressure is already very high, and now this situation makes his situation even more dangerous." ”

Another doctor, apparently an ophthalmologist, was discussing President Roosevelt's eye problems with his assistant: "Just a few hours ago, President Roosevelt was visually impaired in his left eye...... Record what I said below, which will be used as evidence in the future and remain in the confidential file. ”

He looked at his assistant and whispered the detailed results of an examination of President Roosevelt's left eye: "There is nothing unusual about the retina or vitreous...... This means that if there is either a neurological lesion, there is a problem with the corresponding brain...... Not good news, it's definitely not good news. ”

"In 1921, Mr. President was already suffering from polio, and it had a huge impact on us...... Mr. President, because of a long-term illness, his constitution is very fragile, and the muscles in his lower body are ......" Standing with General Marshall, the chief of staff of the Army, was the attending physician in charge of President Roosevelt's condition, and he held a thick stack of cases and whispered to the Chief of Army Staff in front of him: "Ten days at most, I think, it's time to prepare for the funeral of the patient." ”

Originally, President Roosevelt had recovered fairly well in the past few days, and the forces in the United States that insisted on the war were finally relieved, but just this morning, Roosevelt, who was in a good mood, began to deal with some official documents that had been squeezed recently, and then he saw some things that he should not see.

The British Navy suffered heavy losses in the Icelandic region and was almost completely annihilated. This Roosevelt did not expect. Although he intended to consume Britain's sea power in the war, he really did not expect that Germany would really eat such a large fleet in one bite. In fact, he had no idea that the Germans would come out of the nest and use almost all of their sea forces to encircle and suppress the British naval fleet.

This defeat ultimately confirmed one thing: Germany had deciphered the Allied code, and the means used to do so were unknown. This news seemed more irritating than the heavy damage to the fleet, as it marked the end of the security of Allied communications from this moment onwards. But if communication is no longer secure, how can orders be communicated?

Suddenly, Roosevelt felt a grogginess in his head, and a shadow could not be dissipated, and he barely bounced himself up, gritted his teeth and insisted on reading the third report, which was not good news.

"Germany's new jet fighters were put into combat on a large scale, and almost all of the American B-17 bombers that went to Norway to bomb in the Norwegian air defense circle were wiped out. The U.S. Army Air Corps suffered heavy losses and no longer had the ability to carry out another bombing mission. After seeing the news, Roosevelt felt a sweetness in his throat and almost spit out a mouthful of blood. This bombing was an order from him, and he did send those soldiers to their deaths. But Roosevelt did not anticipate that the cost of death would be so great, and that it would also introduce a new German weapon that would continue to blow the morale of the United States, which was already on the verge of collapse.

He felt that part of his left eye was blocked by something, and his brain was in pain as if he had been pricked by a needle. He quickly rang the bell to call the waiter, and then lay on his back in his wheelchair, and then it was dark before his eyes, and he didn't know anything.

Fortunately, he did not continue to read the next report, because it was the news that the British and American troops in Saudi Arabia had been routed by the Germans and that 4,000 American troops had been captured. If Roosevelt insisted on seeing the news, it is estimated that he would not even have the need to rescue him.

Roosevelt briefly woke up a few hours later with the help of a number of doctors, but he found that he could no longer see anything in his left eye, and spoke with a numb accent of the tongue. After a few indistinct words to Marshall, he fainted again.

"Oh my God, his blood pressure has been unstable, and now his polio is getting worse. We are trying to control his condition, but you people come every day with some news that stimulates him, and it is a torture for the patient. A female doctor complained to the American generals and politicians in front of her.

"We ruled out the problem with the eyeball itself, and then checked his polio development...... Maybe he still has cancer that has spread, and we are testing it and we haven't gotten the results yet. The attending physician continued to attack Marshall, the American think tank, and the chief of staff of the Army: "If it is a cerebral hemorrhage or the spread of cancer, then we really have no solution." ”

"Thank you, doctor. Please be critical to the American people to keep such a beloved president. Marshall held the palm of the attending physician and pleaded: "If something goes wrong at this time, Mr. President, then we will lose this war." ”

Marshall had another piece of news that made Roosevelt even more anxious, and he had not yet reported it to His Excellency the President: Just an hour earlier, the United States had received a notice from a German spy office that Germany seemed to be experimenting with a new weapon, and that many Axis dignitaries had recently been concentrating on Italy and might go to Africa.

However, this information had already been collected a few days ago, in other words, whatever kind of weapon the Germans were experimenting with, it had already been tested and became another important bargaining chip in the Third Reich's struggle for world domination. And according to the inside information known to Marshall, it is very likely that this German experiment is the "atomic weapon" that the Americans have been researching.

When Roosevelt was still in good health, he was very concerned about a superweapon called the "Teutonic Knights" that the German army was secretly developing. Marshall had heard of and noticed the super-bomb, known as the atomic weapon, and he had visited nuclear physicists and knew that if a certain change at the atomic level was achieved, a bomb could be as powerful as tens or even hundreds of thousands of tons of aerial bombs.

Marshall, of course, knew what tens of thousands of tons of aerial bombs meant, and what it would mean if they exploded at one point - Washington or New York could disappear overnight, and the Germans might have paid the price of just a few planes.

Thinking of this, he looked at President Roosevelt, who was lying on the hospital bed, the president of the United States, who was about to reach the end of his life, and did not know this fateful thing at this moment. He only knew that Germany had once again defeated the United States, and that the Battle of the Atlantic had deprived the American fleet of its supremacy in the far seas.

"Is there any good news for the Navy? Just look for a few, and after a while President Roosevelt woke up and quickly told him to calm him down......" After retracting his gaze from Roosevelt, Marshall looked at the Admiral and suggested: "There is no good news for the Army...... There should be some on the navy's side, right? Victory in the war against Japan, or the launch of new ships, anything. ”

"Marshall, I heard you! Don't think I'm old. Roosevelt, who was lying in the hospital bed, suddenly woke up and said to Marshall: "I may not have much time left, and I have too many things to say to you, but I don't know where to start." ”

He struggled for a moment, and the waiter and the doctor immediately helped Roosevelt up from the hospital bed, and they put several fluffy pillows behind Roosevelt, so that he could half-lean on the head of the bed and speak more easily. Although Roosevelt's mind was very clear and his speech seemed to be coherent, the doctor who monitored his heartbeat noticed that Mr. President's heartbeat was becoming restless little by little.

"If the Germans developed the atomic bomb, then the United States should negotiate peace with Germany; if China turns to Germany, the United States should also withdraw from the war as soon as possible; and the investment in the study of new weapons such as the atomic bomb must not be relaxed, and the new president should be reminded of this...... Looking at Marshall and some other officers, Roosevelt began to gush about what he wanted to explain. The officers took the pen and quickly recorded it, for fear of forgetting a certain detail.

As he spoke, Roosevelt stopped suddenly, and then his hand to Marshall hung limply, and then the president was surrounded by busy doctors, and he did not say a word until he lost all his life.

On August 30, 1939, U.S. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt died at the age of 57 in his White House hospital room. Because of the decline of the war and the entanglement of domestic problems, he was supposed to live to be 63 years old, but he fell more than 5 years ahead of schedule.

Just seconds after the doctor announced that President Roosevelt had just died, a man in an expensive and decent suit in the corner suddenly pulled out a small pistol and shot himself in the head. The man's name was Bowman, a Jewish businessman who was once super-rich. He shot himself in the head, and he was confirmed dead just seconds later.

Before he died, he just shouted a sentence without a beginning or an end: "You shouldn't leave at this time! Your promise is not like this, hahahaha......"
