Chapter 1597: Force the British into the water (ask for a monthly ticket)
"We don\'t know the specific role of these warships yet. Maybe we won\'t know until the Germans use these warships. However, what is certain is that these warships are prepared by the Germans to attack our homeland. Initiated a landing operation. Therefore, we must take precautions in advance." Admiral Marshall continued.
"General Marshall, the defense plan for the east coast should be led by the General Staff. I hope you can strengthen the defense of the east coast as soon as possible." President Roosevelt said.
Unless there is no way to gain command of the Atlantic Ocean, there is naturally no way to keep the enemy out of the country. The local decisive battle has become the last resort.
"Yes, Your Excellency the President!" Admiral Marshall nodded.
"Your Excellency, to strengthen the defense of the east coast, the islands in the Caribbean Sea must also strengthen their defenses. Otherwise, the Germans are likely to use those islands as a springboard to attack our mainland." Harold ? Admiral Stark said.
President Roosevelt nodded: "Then, send more troops to the Caribbean Sea. Find a way to strengthen the defense there. If the Germans dare to attack the islands in the Caribbean Sea, they must resist their attack!"
"Yes, Your Excellency the President." Admiral Marshall and Harold Stark both replied.
"Your Excellency, once the Germans launch an attack on our homeland, they will definitely attack with all their strength. And if we want to resist the German attack, we must go all out. Only by doing our best is it possible Resist the German attack!" said the Hopkins consultant.
President Roosevelt\'s expression also became more serious. Although he was not a soldier, he could also predict what the next battle would mean for the United States. If the Germans cannot resist the attack and let the Germans invade the United States, then the United States is very likely to lose the war. Once lost in the war, the United States is completely finished. The cruel Germany will never let the United States continue to exist.
"So, this time we have no way out, we must do our best!" President Roosevelt said.
Admiral Marshall and Harold? Stark also nodded again and again.
"Your Excellency, our allies in the north seem to be intimidated by the Germans. They did not participate in the Azores naval battle. But now, they cannot be allowed to sit on the hills and watch the tigers fight. They must be allowed to Only fulfill the promise and let them join in. After all, it is not only our business to resist the German attack. At the same time, it is also their obligation. The original alliance stipulated that our two countries should work together to deal with Germany Human," said the Hopkins consultant.
The ally mentioned by the Hopkins consultant is naturally the British government that has only fled to Canada. For more than two decades, the British have been recuperating. At the same time, the British from other parts of the world are also being gathered in Canada, which has greatly increased their population and strengthened their national strength day by day. Even the military strength has recovered a lot. Of course, there is still a big gap between the British Empire that dominated the world before the last world war. However, the military power of the United Kingdom is still not to be underestimated.
"Your Excellency, after more than 20 years of development, the population now ruled by the British has increased to 25 million. If they fully mobilize, they can even form an army of 2 million. For us, this is already It’s a very good team!” Hopkins consultant continued.
President Roosevelt nodded. The current strength of the British government is indeed good. It\'s just that the great power shown by the Germans in this world war seemed to scare the British. That guy Churchill, after being the prime minister for more than 20 years, seems to have lost his previous ambitions. This made them not want to go to war with Germany. Therefore, the British Navy did not participate in the last naval battle of the Azores.
At that time, the U.S. Navy also believed that it could defeat the German Navy in one fell swoop. At the same time, in order to avoid leaking news, it did not force the British Navy to participate. Who knew that the U.S. Navy would suffer a crushing defeat in the Azores naval battle?
"Your Excellency, the British Army now has millions of troops, well-equipped and well-trained. Their armored forces have also begun to replace M26 heavy tanks and M5 light tanks. Once they fully cooperate with us , This will make us stronger. Therefore, I also think that no matter what, we must win the British to fulfill the covenant." Admiral Marshall also said.
"Yes, Your Excellency. The British Navy is also very strong. Now the Royal Navy has two \'Nelson-class\' battleships, four \'Lion-class\' battleships, and four other \'N3-class\' battleships. It is about to be completed. The \'Nelson-class\' battleships and the \'Lion-class\' battleships are equipped with 406 mm main guns, while the \'N3 class\' battleships are equipped with 457 mm main guns. In addition, the British Royal Navy also has four \' Hood class\' battlecruisers, and four more \'G3 class\' battlecruisers are nearing completion. Once all the battleships and battlecruisers of the British Navy are completed, they will have 18 capital ships. And, these capital ships They are all cutting-edge capital ships with strong performance, and they are fully capable of challenging the German Navy\'s capital ship formation." Admiral Harold Stark said.
Although in the last world war, the British navy was almost completely lost. But after more than 20 years of development, they have once again accumulated a rich family background. And these family properties are even more coveted by Americans who have suffered heavy losses.
