My Third Empire

?\u003c=\u003e\u003c/\u003e In the dark night, most people will fall asleep. But because of the increasingly tense wars recently, the office of President Roosevelt in the White House of the United States is still brightly lit. In this world, there are too many people who are silently fighting in their combat positions, and those who only know how to make noise will never understand how much these people have paid.

For example, now, when several important officials of the U.S. Navy looked through the statistics table of the German Navy submarine force sinking allied ships in the past two months, their faces immediately became very ugly. Although it seems that the submarine force of the German Navy is not as famous as the Air Force and Army of the Third Reich, at least in terms of submarine warfare, it has indeed achieved an unrivaled state.

German submarines have sunk a large number of Allied ships in the past two months. Although most of them are small tonnage transport ships, the accumulation of small tonnage really makes the Allied forces feel very painful. Even supporting a tiny place like Iceland under the noses of the German army did cost the United States a considerable amount of supplies and personnel.

Compared with the battle in the Pacific Ocean, although the U.S. military also lost troops in the battle for islands, this loss is tolerable, and these losses are exchanged for the U.S. victory in the Pacific battlefield; The loss of the United States has made the Americans see no hope. Therefore, many people now suggest that they abandon the Icelandic base and give priority to investing American power in the Pacific Ocean\u003c=l\u003e.

The meeting that Roosevelt is currently chairing is to discuss whether it is a cost-effective plan to devote all our forces to the Pacific Ocean. No one knows when the Japanese navy will suddenly come back after retreating for so long, adding variables to the Pacific battlefield. Moreover, whether the fragile west coast of the United States can withstand the ravages of the German navy has become a topic worth discussing.

The German navy has only submarine forces that have entered the west coast of our country. Compared with the army, their navy is still very conservative. A naval general leaned sideways and suggested to Roosevelt: After all, they have just emerged from the constraints of the Versailles Peace Treaty It is still very difficult to regain self-confidence after recovering strength within the night.”

There is a famous saying called: Thirty years of the army, fifty years of the air force, and a hundred years of the navy. It is said that in order to build a powerful navy with real combat effectiveness, it takes a hundred years to accumulate. This is different from the instant air force and army, because the navy is more complex and systematic.

Of course, the complexity of the air force and army in modern warfare has also undergone a qualitative leap, and it is impossible to verify whether this famous saying can be fulfilled in comparison with the navy. However, at least during World War II, this sentence can still reflect the complexity of the three arms very accurately.

Another officer of the U.S. Army heard that the naval officer mentioned the German Army, and his face was slightly displeased. He looked at President Roosevelt and argued: This can't be explained by the Treaty of Versailles. The laws of the German army... Both the German army and the air force were weakened by that treaty,

But they still developed the three armies of the sea, land and air, and made everything a world-class one.

To talk about the history of the development of the three armed forces in Germany, it really makes the United States, the United Kingdom, and other countries in the world ashamed. The German army has completed the development of the three armed forces under its command in one go, and developed advanced weapons and equipment that meet its own national conditions according to its needs. From the assault rifles used by infantry, to tanks, aircraft, cannons and even aircraft carriers, almost every link has confirmed the advanced nature of the German weapon system, and it did not take even a half-step detour.

Even some high-level Americans have believed that the head of state was sent by God to aid Germany. With the support of this argument, two congressmen have already put forward pro-German remarks in public. They publicly claimed that they should work with Germany to build the future world structure.

Our west coast transportation has begun to be reorganized into a transport fleet model, and the escorting destroyers have also been strengthened. The coast guard is also expanding and patrolling a wider sea area... In addition, we have placed an order for modification and purchased 300 more anti-submarine aircraft Patrol-type B-17, strengthen the shore-based anti-submarine force. Beside Roosevelt, a general spoke to the drowsy Roosevelt and reported.

On the other side of him, the generals of the navy quickly nodded and added: The three Essex-class aircraft carriers are being converted into closed bows to adapt to the sea conditions of the Atlantic Ocean... but we lack the experience of taking off aircraft in the sea conditions of the Atlantic Ocean. The aviation side is also training more pilots...

In fact, the United States has a full 5,600 more pilots than before the war, but after counting the losses, these pilots still cannot meet the needs of the navy and army. About 3,000 pilots were added to the Pacific battlefield, and more than 1,000 were shot down by the Japanese army.

The naval aviation and army aviation units of the Empire of Japan are not as weak as they seem. They have also achieved a terrible record of shooting down more than 1,700 American aircraft under disadvantaged conditions. Except for the kamikaze special attack aircraft, the battle damage ratio between the real Japanese fighter force and the American fighter force has remained at an astonishing one-to-one ratio.

It is hard to imagine that if the Japanese army had not lost too many excellent pilots on the Pacific battlefield, the Kwantung Army under the command of General Ishihara Wanji would have lost the air supremacy so easily when facing the German fighter force. It is speculated that if the main force of the Japanese army did not cease to exist, the Chinese battlefield would not be able to fight an undefeated battle like the Battle of Wuhan\u003c=l\u003e.

Mr. Roosevelt, although your assumption that Germany will not accept Japan has been proved to be completely correct, but if we continue to consume Japan endlessly on the Pacific battlefield, it will only make the situation more favorable to Germany. ... A politician whispered to Roosevelt: We must know that there is intelligence that the Germans are building the 8th and 9th aircraft carriers. If these two aircraft carriers are allowed to form a combat force, then Germany's naval power in the Atlantic Ocean, That's twice as much as ours.

I heard that the Germans are launching an attack on Japan in the Far East... This is a good opportunity for us. If we can help Japan gain a foothold in the Far East, can we drag Germany and Japan into an endless war? Another politician didn't ask Roosevelt, but asked his colleagues around him.

The other party was obviously very interested in this plan, and after thinking for a while, he replied: This is indeed a workable plan... If we slow down our offensive on the Pacific battlefield, Japan will definitely transfer its main force to a more distant place. For the deadly Far East...in the Far East, the mountainous terrain is not conducive to the operation of German tank units, and they may be blocked by the Japanese near the Far East.

Don't forget, the German mountain division and the special forces are very powerful in the mountains... The Germans can also use paratroopers...they can send too many troops, so many that we It’s unimaginable.” From a purely military point of view, a general poured cold water on two politicians who were having a heated discussion.

Everyone knows that if you lack understanding of the German army, you will suffer a lot. Even a famous player as powerful as Patton was tricked by Germany's endless new methods and experienced a disastrous defeat in Egypt. How far Ishihara Waner is from Patton and Montgomery will not be mentioned for the time being, but Ishihara really lacks chips that can deal with the three-dimensional attack of the German army.

In other words, if we want Japan and Germany to fight to the death in the Far East and consume each other, we must suspend the offensive in the Pacific Ocean and give Japan a chance to breathe? A naval general frowned and said to the people around him : This is very dangerous... We may miss the chance to defeat Japan, and we may lose China's friendship because of it...

Germany, in the Mediterranean Sea, there are so many salvage ships? There are no fewer destroyers patrolling nearby? Suddenly, Roosevelt asked a question that seemed unrelated, with his hand on the armrest of his wheelchair Trembling, his words also paused a few times due to lack of breath, but he still asked this question, with a somewhat concerned tone.

Mr. President, according to the news from the Navy's submarine force, the German and Italian ships are still there... But what they are looking for, only our intelligence department and the people in charge of the sinking operation know. The person in charge knew that the president was more concerned about this issue, so he rushed to report. Mentioning this made the U.S. Navy feel bad. In order to sink a German light cruiser, the U.S. Navy's elite submarine USS Herring was just lost.

Roosevelt nodded imperceptibly, and then continued: Most of the aid we give to China is still stockpiled in Australia... The conditions that the Germans offered to China seem to be better, we can, we can Slow down some of the pressure on Japan and allow Japan to deploy more troops to deal with the threat of the Germans. For us...maybe, it may be an opportunity...

He spoke intermittently and his voice was very weak, but when he finished speaking, everyone present expressed their approval. They nodded and stood up facing Roosevelt.
