Chapter 188 Moscow Crisis

The USS Kaga aircraft carrier was sunk in Malaysian waters. Japan claimed that it was a British submarine. However, the British suspected that it was the U.S. Far East Mixed Fleet. They asked the U.S. military about the matter. The U.S. military initially refused I thought it was Hatton who secretly ordered it. After investigation, I found that this was not the case, so I turned to the British for details. The British government's answer at the time was unclear and showed signs of acquiescence. The Americans did not take it seriously. Only now I knew it was Xuebingjun who did it,

After being cross-examined by Gu Lianyun, Admiral Jin lost his dignity and his face darkened on the spot.

Knox and MacArthur were secretly frightened when they heard this. They looked at each other and said that taking care of Lian Yun was a well-thought-out move by the Xuebing Army to form the Pacific Fleet. So if the Far East Allied Combined Fleet was really established, In the battle for command, Admiral Jin may not be able to compete with Ouyang Yun. The command of the Allied Army in the Far East has been taken over by the Xuebing Army. If the command of the Navy is taken over by the Xuebing Army again, wouldn't it mean that the United States can only With the soldiers and soldiers following their lead, Knox had no initiative at all. Knox frowned and looked at Gu Lianyun and Guo Muyi. Guo Muyi happened to look over. The two people's eyes met immediately. He couldn't help but feel like he couldn't sit still.

The U.S. military has conducted in-depth research on the future development direction of the navy. Ironically for the Americans, when they began to discuss this issue under the influence of the Xuebing Army's custom-made aircraft carriers in the United States, because in battleships and The aircraft carriers were wavering among themselves, so they did not follow the trend and build aircraft carriers. Therefore, when the Pacific Fleet was attacked by the Japanese combined fleet and the entire army was wiped out, they began to realize the war potential of aircraft carriers and prepared to build aircraft carriers. However, they found that there were many ships in the docks of several major shipyards. The other types of ships are all semi-finished products, and the development of aircraft carriers has been delayed. The United States is a traditional naval power, but it actually ranks behind the military in this matter. This has dealt a huge blow to their self-esteem.

Although Mrs. Eleanor did not sit with them, she was always paying attention to the situation here. Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit tense, she came over and said with a smile: "Today is Christmas, let's leave serious issues to another day, love." Yun, come, I will take you to meet some new friends."

Gu Lianyun stood up and nodded to Marshall and others as a courtesy, and then left with Eleanor. As soon as she left, Marshall, General Jin and others did not want to stay any longer. They agreed to say goodbye and then went to Roosevelt's house. office,

Roosevelt raised his head from the papers, glanced at the five people, and said, "Why, the talks have collapsed."

Marshall paused and said, "Ouyang Yun is very ambitious. Mr. President, we must be on guard against him."

It was not once or twice that Marshall and others talked about the threat of the Xuebingjun or Ouyang Yun in Roosevelt's ears. Roosevelt also maintained a high degree of vigilance against it. However, the frontline troops failed to live up to expectations, and more than 20,000 American soldiers were counting on the Xuexin. The army gave him a way out, but now he didn't have much time to think about such far-reaching issues. He put down his pen, took off his reading glasses, pushed a document in front of him to the table, and said: "Look at this, Churchill telegraphed Come."

Knox picked it up and looked at it, and his expression changed: "Missile, radio control." His mouth was a little dry, he swallowed hard and said in surprise: "Xue Bingjun actually mastered this technology."

"Remember that the Germans once organized a military delegation to secretly visit Guangzhou. At that time, I suspected that things were not as simple as they appeared. Only now did I realize that Germany and China have no direct disputes of interest. If Germany and the Xuebing Army secretly formed an alliance, If so, MacArthur, don’t look at me like that. I’m definitely not an alarmist. There has never been friendship between countries, only entanglements of interests. Although this kind of thing sounds incredible, who dares to assert that it is definitely not true? It will happen, and you should also take a look at this information. China's Finance Minister sent someone to send it." Roosevelt said as he pulled out another document and pushed it to the table.

Admiral Jin picked it up and looked at it, his eyes widened, and he said in a slightly horrified voice: "Jet fighter, my God, how much strength the Xuebing Army hides."

The Kaga aircraft carrier was sunk by a Xuebing military submarine. This incident greatly touched the Americans. The sea area where the Kaga aircraft carrier was sunk was more than 1,500 kilometers away from the nearest land to the Xuebing army. In other words, the Xuebing army The Bingjun submarine has a endurance of more than 3,000 kilometers. As professionals, they know the meaning behind this very well.

Roosevelt and the other five people read the two documents one after another, leaned back on the chair and said: "There is nothing to panic. The Xuebing Army is still our ally now, isn't it? I have thought about a lot of things in the past few days. It can be expected that this time After the end of the world war, the world structure will inevitably undergo major changes. If Japan is ultimately defeated, then the rise of the Xuebing Army and China behind it will be unstoppable. For the future, your worries are correct. However, even if it is to tide over the current difficulties, do we have any other choice besides continuing to cooperate with the Xuebing Army? I am not too worried about the situation in Asia right now. I am worried about Europe. Are any of you paying attention to the progress of the Moscow Battle? No, the Soviet Union is in a bad situation. If the Soviet Union is occupied by Germany, I really can’t imagine it.”

Regarding the Battle of Moscow, the U.S. military had a consensus that as long as the Soviet Union could wait until winter came, it could rely on weather factors to reverse the trend. Once the Battle of Moscow fell into a stalemate, Germany would not have the ability to open a new battlefield. In this way, the United States can rely on its strong military production capacity to rapidly develop its armed forces, thus becoming a key force in determining the direction of this world war.

The plan is beautiful, but the reality is as cruel as the cold winter in Moscow. If Germany no longer needs to maintain a large army in the Soviet Union and these troops can return to the European battlefield and go to the North African battlefield, then in order to avoid the complete fall of Europe and North Africa, the United States can only Hastily sending troops, but does the United States now have this capability? If the United States does not send troops, when Europe and North Africa are occupied by the Germans, then it will definitely have to face the difficult situation of resisting the Germans alone. Since Roosevelt and Churchill After the Atlantic Charter was signed and perfected at the Atlantic Conference, the possibility of peace between the United States and Germany has been lost.

"We need the Soviet Union to hold back the Germans and their huge retinue, but with the current situation of the Soviet Union, this seems to be a luxury, so we must provide assistance to the Soviets."

Marshall frowned slightly: "Providing assistance to the Soviets is not a problem, but which route should be taken? If it is all from the sea, we do not have such capabilities. If it is to go by land, it can only be from the western front." said At this point, he looked up at Roosevelt and asked tentatively: "You have decided to interfere in Canada's political situation."

Roosevelt smiled bitterly: "Do we have any other choice? Canada has always refused to join the Allies. If Moscow is occupied by the German army, there is no guarantee that they will not completely fall to Germany. Rather than waiting to be stabbed in the back by the Canadians, we can only

Prepare for a rainy day."
