Age of Rebirth

The exchanges between countries are often an exchange of interests. Tang Qiuli's call back gave Hitler a reassurance. His old friend is also interested in the North American continent. The plan to take action against the United States is to manage the South American continent first, and then make calculations. Doesn't my old friend Tang Qiuli often say "Xu Tuzhi!" That's the reason.

Choosing a partner is very important, and Tang Qiuli is the best partner. Hitler has no doubts about this. Moreover, the two parties have had a good foundation for cooperation. As for the telegram to the Japanese, it is considered a little sinister Japanese. Take the right to retaliate, and make use of the factors that should be used as much as possible. This is what an outstanding politician should do!

Based on Hitler's understanding of the Japanese, the promises he made, and the terms he offered, it would be hard for the greedy Japanese not to be tempted. He even considered that if the Japanese really sent troops to land on the east coast of the United States, they would In a big fight with the Americans, Germany doesn't mind providing the Japanese with advanced weapons and equipment. It would be best if the Japanese took the lead!

The United States, Washington, the White House, the conference room, the two senior officials of the U.S. military and government, all the (top) (point) novels are all gathered here, and everyone has a mournful expression on their faces. There is still panic that cannot be concealed. The report of the Japanese Army and Navy Air Force’s air strikes on several cities on the east coast is now on the president’s desk, and they are waiting for Mr. President.

In the Oval Office of the President of the White House, President Roosevelt sat in a wheelchair, his sallow face became increasingly haggard.It seemed that the candlelight of life might be extinguished at any time, and he was indeed exhausted physically and mentally.A series of foreign aggressions, Japan's aggressive posture, and domestic insensitivity to the imminent war almost drained his last ounce of energy.

Roosevelt even fell into a coma after receiving reports of heavy losses in several cities from the Japanese air strikes on the east coast.After the doctor's all-out rescue, the crisis was turned into safety.The doctor sternly warned Mr. President that he must stay in bed and not work according to the normal state, otherwise.Life is in danger at any time.

But.Right now, the United States is already in a precarious and extreme crisis. The German elite troops have landed on the South American continent. Although it is not yet clear that the German army has signs of going north to attack Mexico, but in terms of Hitler's expansion methods and lunatic personality No one can guarantee that.Wouldn't he launch a massive attack on the continental United States like he did with the Soviets?

If only the Germans had come ashore on the South American continent.Although it is a long-term concern, it is not a near-term worry. It can be arranged calmly to deal with that lunatic Hitler. However, the Japanese suddenly launched an air strike. The impact of this incident is far greater than that of the Germans on the South American continent. For military operations, there is a buffer time for long-term considerations, but immediate worries are imminent!

The United States has been established for more than 200 years. Except for the War of Independence, the mainland has not suffered any form of aggression. During the First World War, when the flames of war burned almost half of the world, the United States did not drop a single bullet. On the contrary, it was in the middle of the war. It laid the foundation of the national power of the United States today, but on an ordinary morning, all this changed, and the Japanese imposed war on the Americans.

The Japanese crazy air strikes caused panic and blows to the American people, which was unprecedented. Even if he did not leave the White House, Roosevelt could still smell the panic in the air over the United States. He had never experienced a domestic war. Americans have an instinctive sense of fear of a war that may happen at their doorstep.

All kinds of rumors spread wildly all over the United States, spreading like a plague. The most widespread rumor is, "The Japanese have assembled millions of troops in the Hawaiian Islands area, and they will land on the east coast at any time! The combined fleet of the Japanese Navy , has already reached the waters near Los Angeles, San Francisco, etc.! Japan’s full-scale attack on the United States is about to begin!"

Whether the rumors are based or not, the US intelligence agency can't judge, because he doesn't know, and he can't guess, whether the group of lunatics on the other side of the Pacific Ocean will really continue to go crazy and brazenly land on the east coast. How can the United States, which is in panic and seems to be approaching a catastrophe, prevent the catastrophe from happening?

In the severe situation that concerns the future and destiny of the United States, can Roosevelt lie quietly in bed to recuperate? This time the joint meeting of senior military and political officials is over.

White House chief of staff Joelna looked worriedly at Mr. President, he did not agree with the president presiding over this meeting, Roosevelt felt the worry of his loyal aide, forced a smile, said: "Joelna, there is no need to worry , my life is doomed for America, go, push me out, to the conference room!"

President Roosevelt's wheelchair appeared in the large conference room. The American military and political officials who participated in the meeting all stood up and looked at the dying president with complicated but expectant eyes. The worries in their hearts were palpable.

The moment he was pushed into the big meeting room by Joelna, Roosevelt seemed to be a different person. Although he was still so haggard, his eyes glowed with fresh light, as sharp and flexible as a young man. Perhaps, this is the essence of politics. charm.

"It seems that everyone is worried about my body! Let me tell you, it's not as bad as you imagined!" Roosevelt's opening remarks were unexpected!

I don’t know why, President Roosevelt’s opening remarks gave the American military and political officials who participated in the meeting a sense of peace of mind. They believed that His Excellency, the famous president in American history, led the United States through the most difficult years. , as well!

Roosevelt was very satisfied with the effect he created. Seeing that he was urgently recalled to Washington, the commander of the U.S. Navy East Coast Defense Command, Vice Admiral Robert, who participated in the meeting, said with a smile: "Lieutenant General Robert, you will report first. Let’s take a look at our losses, of course, the local government has also submitted reports to the White House, but I want to hear the military’s report, because it is the most authentic!”

Lieutenant General Robert stood up, first saluted the President, who is also the commander-in-chief of the U.S. Army, and then said solemnly: "Your Excellency, the loss is heavy. Among them, those in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Carson City, Semler and other places The losses were the most serious, with ruins and rubble everywhere, and the two rounds of bombing by the Japanese army focused on the above-mentioned cities. According to the preliminary statistics of our East Coast Defense Command, the number of casualties was..."

Lieutenant General Robert was about to enter the topic, but was interrupted by President Roosevelt raising his hand, "Lieutenant General Robert, the local government has already had a detailed report on civilian casualties, damage to the city and property loss, so you don't need to repeat it , what I want to hear is the losses of your military and the losses of the Japanese during the two rounds of Japanese air strikes!"

Lieutenant General Robert suddenly became embarrassed. The military's performance in the battle against the Japanese air raids was not outstanding, even very embarrassing. It is very appropriate to describe it as being helpless. The commander of the headquarters bears the utmost responsibility, but when Mr. President asked, he could not answer truthfully, nor could he conceal it.

Lieutenant General Robert bit the bullet and said: "Mr. President, what happened suddenly, we deployed a ground radar station to monitor the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy on several outpost islands far away from the east coast. Before the Japanese launched an air strike, All of them were destroyed by the elite small force of the Japanese army!"

"Therefore, the Defense Command did not receive any warning of the enemy's situation in advance. Nearly [-] Japanese combat aircraft flew over several cities and started bombing frantically. Even the city's air defense alarms did not have time to sound. We were beaten Caught off guard!"

"But the main reason for such a large-scale loss is that more than 80.00% of the naval land-based air force deployed on the east coast was transferred to the Mexican border. As a result, the number of our fighter jets The number of fighter jets is far lower than that of the Japanese, so the counterattack of our air force will not change the result!"

When Lieutenant General Robert reported here, President Roosevelt frowned slightly, and his eyes suddenly sharpened, but he said in a calm tone: "Lieutenant General Robert, I don't want to hear that the east coast was attacked by the Japanese." Reasons and excuses, you don't need to explain!"

"What I want to hear is the loss of our troops when resisting the bombing of the Japanese fleet, and how much damage it caused to the Japanese!"

Lieutenant General Robert's face immediately became as ugly as a pig's liver. He swallowed hard, and said with cold sweat on his forehead: "After about five hours of air strikes, we lost more than 170 fighter jets. The ground air defense force The number of casualties is about 400 people, more than [-] anti-aircraft guns have been destroyed, and now there are only less than [-] left, and the four naval and land-based aviation regiments that were deployed on the east coast were wiped out!"

"During the battle, a total of more than forty Japanese combat aircraft were shot down and shot down!" His movements became smaller and smaller.

The American military and political officials who participated in the meeting were all stunned by Lieutenant General Robert's words. That is to say, there is no American fighter jet in the East Coast of the United States, and the ground air defense force is no longer there. There are not many left. Doesn't that mean that the east coast is almost undefended now?

What if the lunatic Japanese launch another air strike of the same scale?

The eyes of the military and government officials all looked at President Roosevelt who couldn't suppress the pain in his eyes.
