Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The desperate fighting on the western battlefield allowed the Americans to temporarily ensure that the Japanese army could not attack deep into the central region. However, the overall battle situation was still full of crises for the Americans. The German offensive in the southwest border area was either repulsed or defeated.  It is to contain, but not to adopt an offensive posture at all, and to use a large number of troops to maintain pressure on the second line of defense on the US military's southwest border.

    By April 1942, the western battlefield was still bloody, and the Japanese also had a savage energy and persevered in maintaining their offensive posture. Although they were on the thousands-kilometer-long Dilera Mountain defense line,  There was no breakthrough at any point, but countless attacks every day never stopped. For General Yamamoto, although he was helpless, he could only adopt this style of play.

    The great relocation of Americans in the central and eastern regions is basically coming to an end. Almost all important things have been moved to Canada. Of course, there are still many residents, mostly small towns and villages, who have not moved away. It is not them  I don¡¯t want to follow in the footsteps of democracy, but this group of people are not of much use to American interest groups. In fact, they are a burden.

    The United States cannot provide more means of transportation to move them, and it relies entirely on the self-reliance of these people. However, the distance of thousands of kilometers from the central and eastern regions to Canada in the far north is, for these Americans, the journey to heaven.  The road was almost far away, and the U.S. Wartime High Command had no intention of forcing them and just left them to fend for themselves.

    Sitting in his humble office in the temporary capital of Duluth, President Roosevelt already had the United States in his hands.  Finally able to examine the overall situation without interference, he looked towards the southwest border battlefield, there.  There are still more than 100,000 American soldiers who are gathering in the Baton Rouge area, but they have not escaped the German encirclement.

    Regarding the fate of these American soldiers, President Roosevelt also consulted in extreme secrecy. The opinion of General Jefferfield, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was just one sentence, "Jeffrey. With your honor as a soldier, tell me the truth."  , can the more than 100,000 soldiers gathered in the direction of Baton Rouge successfully evacuate to the east? "

    General Jefferfield was silent for a long time, and then replied, "Mr. President, it's difficult!"

    "Basics and reasons?" Roosevelt stared closely and asked.

    General Jefferfield walked to the military map.  A detailed explanation: "Currently, the Germans have suspended the momentum of their offensive and pushed the front to near Santa Fe, Oklahoma City, Little Rock and Baton Rouge. They are not like the Japanese on the Western battlefield who were attacked by us.  The joint blockade with the Canadian army cannot break through the defense line of the Delera Mountains!¡±

    "According to intelligence, the German commander Rommel has mobilized about 400,000 troops and is trying to encircle them in the direction of Baton Rouge. General Stimson, the Secretary of the Army, envisaged withdrawing this part of the troops by sea.  The plan in the eastern region may be difficult to realize because of the strong presence of the German Navy and the Gulf of Mexico is already within the control of the German Navy! "

    "Faced with this situation, what response measures did the wartime Supreme Headquarters Staff take?" Roosevelt asked again.

    "After careful consideration, the staff has issued an order. The troops have changed their scheduled plan to assemble in the direction of Barutunri and changed to the direction of Oklahoma City. However, the biggest problem is that they need to break through the Abilene area.  The German army blocked the attack with more than 100,000 troops!"

    "I know!" Roosevelt said dryly, and then changed the subject and said: "So, does the staff have any plans for the hundreds of thousands of troops who have penetrated into the West Coast alone?"

    There was a reason why Roosevelt asked this. Originally, according to the plan of General Stimson, Secretary of the Army, the more than 100,000 U.S. troops west of Santa Fe were forced to enter the west coast area that was already the Japanese rear area, which was to recycle waste and provide it to Japan.  People pose some threats to relieve the pressure on the defense line of the Dilera Mountains.

    None of the bosses at the U.S. High Command during the war were optimistic about this lone army. In the rear area of ??more than one million Japanese troops, they would die in battle. But unexpectedly, more than a month passed.  Although this lone army suffered heavy losses, not only was it not completely wiped out by the Japanese, but it persisted until now despite being wiped out by the Japanese army, posing a great threat to the Japanese rear.

    Roosevelt asked General Jefferfield about his intention to reinforce this lone army, but how to reinforce it was not something he, a president who knew nothing about military matters, could decide. Although he was the supreme commander of the US Army,  But Roosevelt was self-aware. When it came to military issues, he was almost like a white guy!

    "Mr. President, the Germans are on the southwestern border and the Japanese are in the western region. Therefore, from a battlefield perspective, the west coast has been isolated from the enemy's heavy troops. There is nothing we can do!" JieGeneral Forfield replied very simply, "For all the officers and soldiers of this army, we can only pray that God will bless them and have good luck!"

    General Jefferfield had followed President Roosevelt for many years and was keenly aware of the president's intentions, but he was frightened. "Isn't the president crazy? He wants to break through the heavy defense lines of the Germans and Japanese and send troops to reinforce them."  That lone army is almost like fighting a full-front counterattack now. Even if the existing U.S. troops and Canadians are put into it, it is impossible to accomplish! "

    Roosevelt's expression dimmed and he nodded silently. He knew that his idea was too naive, but he still asked without giving up: "Can't we provide them with any help?"

    "No! There is no way, they are behind enemy lines!" This time, General Jefferfield answered more simply. He wanted to make Mr. President completely give up!

    The night was deep, and Roosevelt was still not sleepy. The night temperature in Duluth, a small town close to the northern border of Canada, made him very uncomfortable. The weather in April was still bitingly cold at night, and the rooms lacked heating equipment, which was different from the outdoors.  Almost, but under such an environment, Roosevelt's mind became clearer.

    Roosevelt was thinking about several questions. On the issue of attacking the United States, was there really close cooperation between the Germans and the Japanese?  If the current situation continues to develop, and under the joint attack of Germany and Japan, the fall of the United States is basically a foregone conclusion, no matter how deep the foundation of the United States is, then the post-war United States will have a huge piece of cake.  , how to distinguish between Hitler and Hirohito?

    According to conventional inference, Germany and Japan will definitely reach an agreement, but this is only superficial. In the face of huge interests, the agreement is just a piece of waste paper!

    As a senior politician, he was used to the so-called alliance or the unabashed slander between teammates. He was also a master of it. Roosevelt absolutely did not believe that this possibility existed. Between countries,  The exchanges and alliances are all based on interests, and the Germans and Japanese are no exception. As for the Italians, they are selectively ignored.

    For the Germans and Japanese, the greatest interest is the vast land of the United States of America. So, in the face of this huge interest, they can be modest and give in to each other, and discuss like gentlemen how to carve up the post-war United States.  land?

    Roosevelt also did not believe that after winning the North American War, the Germans and Japanese would calmly discuss how to carve up the United States. His thinking had jumped out of the North American battlefield and was active in the space between countries and the game of interests.  Regarding the division of huge interests, the Germans and the Japanese will definitely have conflicts, and the same is true for themselves. So, where is the breaking point of the conflicts between the Germans and the Japanese?

    "Joelna, bring me the map!" Roosevelt, who could no longer sleep, suddenly had a bright light flash in his mind, like lightning, illuminating the dark space, but this lightning was fleeting and blurred to the point that he could not sleep anymore.  When he couldn't catch him, he called White House Chief of Staff Joel.

    The loyal Joelna did not sleep at all. The light in the president's bedroom never went out, making him worried and worried. When he heard Roosevelt's shout, he hurriedly picked up the map, opened the door to the bedroom and came in, not forgetting.  The reminder: "Mr. President, you should rest! The doctor has repeatedly warned that your body is not allowed to stay up late!"

    Roosevelt seemed oblivious to Joelna's words of concern. He subconsciously took the map and brought the lamp closer. Then, he looked at it carefully. The entire United States was displayed on the map, including the western region with deserts and mountains, and hills.  The criss-crossing southwest region, the northern part inlaid with the Great Lakes, and the flat and mountainous but fertile central and eastern regions were all beating alive, and the lightning in his mind became clearer and clearer!

    In Berlin, Germany, after reading the intelligence sent back by the German intelligence agency, Hitler sighed to the surrounding party, government and military bosses: "Roosevelt is worthy of being the political strongman of the United States. He moved all the central and eastern regions where the foundation of the United States is.  In Canada, great courage is needed. It will be difficult for Rommel to fight in future battles!¡±

    The senior officials looked at each other, wondering why the head of state had such a sigh. Goebbels, the Propaganda Minister of the Central Committee of the Nazi Party, asked tentatively: "My head of state, why do you have such thoughts?"

    "Roosevelt plans to turn the entire United States into a huge battlefield!" Hitler said simply: "Depth, huge depth, is the fatal factor in dispersing our German forces. Roosevelt can fight a war without any scruples.  Battle of Scorched Earth!"

    "Strance, we need to send more troops to Rommel again!" Hitler said suddenly, "The German troops on the North American battlefield, the generalTo reach more than 2.5 million people, the General Staff Headquarters immediately started working on this matter!  "
