The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

"Snapped!"

A large stack of reports was slammed onto the table, a pen was bounced two or three meters away, fell to the ground and broke into two pieces.

President Roosevelt's eyes were bloodshot, emitting a cannibalistic red light. He glared viciously at Chief of Staff Marshall who was standing upright in front of him, and roared hoarsely, "What do you want me to read? Science fiction? Or a movie script?"

At this time, the President looks even uglier than the previous few days. It seems that every hour of every day, he is losing weight rapidly. On the ground, even with the cover of the lens, it still looks like a mummy with severe ischemia just crawled out of the coffin.

Even though he had tried his best to yell, he could still hear clearly, his voice was seriously lacking in energy, and his voice was as dry as wood that had been shining for a long time, as if it would shatter when touched.

Chief of Staff Marshall calmly bent down to pick up the report, put it back on the table, then straightened his waist, and said calmly: "Although it seems very incomprehensible, it is the truth, so..."

He spread his hands helplessly, and probably felt that there was no way to use better adjectives to explain the situation described above. In any case, he couldn't say that the person in front of him was lying and cheating, with pictures and texts and even film photography. Not fake.

The report was sent by Eisenhower from the front line. He collected and sorted out all kinds of strange things that happened in various parts of the southern battlefield, conducted air and ground reconnaissance and witnessed all kinds of strange situations, and finally concluded a "Compendium of Supernatural Events", which described No matter how you look at the scene, it looks like the doomsday war in myths and legends, such as "Ramayana", or the allusion of the destruction of Sodom in the Bible.

Marshall could even think of it.Those guys in front were probably terrified.Think about it, the inexplicable bloom of light, as if the sun descended on the earth; the sudden attack that cannot be detected, an explosion that destroys a small town;It looks like a giant who came from ancient time and space... Has this Nima Nevada desert become the lair of the devil general mobilization?

In fact, there are still traces to follow. Most of the things have been discovered in previous intelligence, but this time, they appeared too densely, and their power has increased a lot, and they are still in the United States, under the nose. Think about it It's chilling!

Roosevelt tried hard for a long time but still couldn't stand up, otherwise he really wanted to punch the guy in front of him hard in the face.What do you mean there is no way?Damn, can't you just clear things up and report back?How can you show something like this to Congress!

Politicians are politicians, and the first thing that comes to their minds must be games and the exchange of interests.Instead of solving the problem in the right way.Obviously, what is written in the report is super weapons, so it is enough to think about the solution from the weapon level.How to explain when confronted with criticism.It also shows from another angle that the so-called democratic countries are at a critical time.The degree of fucking is far worse than that of the so-called dictatorship, which makes people feel unreasonable---the knife is on the neck, and you have to fight first.

After much deliberation, he was unable to refute Marshall's words after all. Roosevelt shivered a few times while supporting the wheelchair with both hands, and sat back helplessly.Holding his forehead, he sighed tiredly: "Although I don't expect you to be able to do so beautifully, at least you must be a little more decent. Gentlemen, what's going on? The powerful American army can't even conduct normal wars." Yet?"

Marshall still shrugged helplessly.What can he say?That's it!The U.S. military wants to fight a conventional battlefield.But why the opponent doesn't cooperate, what to do?

Reloading the pipe, taking a deep breath to calm himself down, Roosevelt picked up the thick report, full of all kinds of strange and inexplicable descriptions, which can be read as a template for science fiction movies, even magical movies, and mythological movies. He pinched the two pages with two fingers, glanced at them, closed them again, raised his head, and slowly scanned everyone's faces with his piercing eyes.

Marshall had nowhere to hide, and he replied dryly: "We have to admit that the enemy army was carefully planned. They chose to fight at the core in Las Vegas, forcing us to go through thousands of kilometers of bad mountain deserts, yes We can't give full play to our superiority in military strength, and we can advance, attack, retreat, or defend. Unless we can also develop super weapons like them, it will be difficult to completely eliminate them."

He didn't even dare to say the number of casualties. That would cause politicians in Congress to attack and completely tear up his optimistic Eisenhower.

Two times before and after the joint attack, nearly 60 troops were invested, and 40 casualties were already confirmed. The other 20 were also scattered on the wide desert battlefield, fragmented and unorganized, and they had to face the opponent's elusive super weapon attack , at stake.

The side feint to attract firepower lost [-] troops, but it did not have the desired effect.The air strike echelon lost thousands of aircraft of various types, and the airport surrounding the theater was destroyed for at least two rounds, and it was not repaired fast enough to blow up, completely falling into a state of exhaustion.

This is still a local battle, and it took only half a month before and after. It is estimated that the Nevada desert will be stained brown by the blood of dead and wounded soldiers?How to explain to the people?This kind of thing can't be said openly, otherwise, it will definitely cause a huge panic!

Of course, there is no way to quickly notify.The broadcast is interrupted, the traffic is jammed, and it is difficult to find a place with a slightly larger power supply nowadays. The entire American industry is on the verge of paralysis, and the national spirit is on the verge of collapse. safe place.

It can be said that Eisenhower's plan was almost a desperate and risky action by the US military, but the result was such a shameful and bizarre fiasco. Once it was publicized, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Roosevelt was able to grasp the main contradiction, and immediately turned to look at the other generals: "So, when will our scientific researchers complete the research on super weapons?"

This question is difficult to answer.Brigadier General Groves found that he couldn't escape, so he bit his bullet and said: "Mr. President, our 'Manhattan Project' is now officially launched, but several important factories and laboratories that were destroyed have not been fully restored."

He has a key project that is expected to be high, that is, the manufacture of the atomic bomb.Several super bombings by China were judged to be nuclear weapons.A series of related papers before, including Einstein's mass-energy formula, were all considered correct and achievable, so the U.S. government secretly started research under the pressure of the army.

But most of their first key research institutions were destroyed by Zhu Bin and his super soldiers, leaving only some university laboratories for theoretical research and the central planning and guidance office.It will take longer to rebuild uranium purification and separation plants and build nuclear power plants.

This means that the United States is rich and powerful. Even if Zhu Bin took away a large number of high-end talents, it can still easily gather tens of thousands of scientists to ensure the progress of research.Even if a wave of facilities were destroyed, there would be no hesitation in rebuilding a wave.

But time, the most precious time, they are running short of more and more!

Except the atomic bomb.Rocket research, electronic technology research, jet fighter research, super tank research, strange mysterious weapon research, the results are not good.

So the Americans are surprised that they have almost concentrated scientists from Britain, the United States, Japan, and even France, and they can be called the strongest research force in the world.There is no way to produce so many powerful weapons in a short period of time. How did the Chinese do it?

There is no good news.Roosevelt's aggrieved chest felt tight.Breathless, he could see that the soldiers who were full of confidence before were no longer sure of victory, and the country he led was about to collapse!

"We need time! Mr. President, no matter what. We must get a period of at least six months or a year of stability as a buffer!"

Marshall made a definite conclusion.Whether it is resuming industrial production, manufacturing advanced weapons, or rebuilding the main force of the armed forces, the United States needs a period of calm.Otherwise, continue like this.Not only is the strength of the troops stretched, the worst thing is that the fighting spirit of the people has collapsed, internal panic and riots have spread, and the consequences will be unmanageable!

Why didn't Roosevelt know this truth?The problem was that he couldn't agree to negotiate with Zhu Bin -- not to mention that he probably didn't want to negotiate peace either.As long as he is not a fool, he can clearly see the terrible strength of the United States. Once the Americans recover, he will be the one who will be unlucky!

"Then your suggestion?"

"Give up the west! Withdraw troops east of Colorado and concentrate on defending against enemy aerial bombardment!"

Marshall's horrifying assertion shocked most people, including Roosevelt!His Excellency nearly jumped up -- of course he couldn't help it, and yelled, "You know what you're talking about?! Abandon the West and we'll be torn apart by the American people! Damn, that's worse than admitting defeat." Ten thousand times!"

"But we also cannot afford to continue to suffer large-scale casualties! In comparison, it is more beneficial for us to reduce losses and shrink the front line!"

Marshall did not budge, insisting on his views.

Roosevelt was panting, his eyes were bloodshot, he stared at his face, trying to see something suspicious from above, but there was nothing.

This matter is too difficult to make a decision. As a super politician, the first thing he thinks of is the threat of his political opponents and the opposition of the people. The consequences of doing so will surely nail him to the pillar of shame and be recorded in the annals of history.Approval rate, word of mouth, these things will leave him.

At the critical moment, Mr. Hopkins interjected: "Mr. President, as long as we can win the final victory, no one can make irresponsible remarks afterwards. Sometimes, a proper concession can make our counterattack fist more powerful! "

But it's too risky!Roosevelt was able to express his concerns without opening his mouth.What if I can't call back?Isn't it going to be infamous for thousands of years?

Hopkins shrugged, winners and losers, winners win everything, losers lose, thinking so much is useless.

He vaguely reminded that this is an extraordinary period, and even communication guarantees cannot be guaranteed, and it is too late for the whole country to avoid bombing. Who has the leisure to stare at his shortcomings every day?Now that the tent can still preserve its strength, he can't explain it to another failed attack and the casualties have exceeded the million mark.

Roosevelt tried to make a final struggle: "Could it be that we can't organize another full-scale offensive? We still have 100 million troops to use!"

Marshall gave a heavy blow: "If we can't get out of the predicament as soon as possible, the European battlefield without support will be completely out of control. Once the British surrender, the consequences will be disastrous!"

Roosevelt woke up with horror, yes!The U.S. Navy lost almost all of its capital ships.Germany in the Atlantic Ocean is unstoppable, the speed of ship construction to support Europe has been greatly reduced, and the supply of materials is not available. Britain will not be able to support it for a few months. Once it surrenders, Hitler will be free.Can we not go to the United States?

Roosevelt was sweating at the thought of being attacked by the Chinese and the Germans on both sides. The consequences were unspeakably bad!

Finally, he waved helplessly: "Find a way to contact the Chinese!"

All of a sudden, His Excellency the President aged ten years, and it seemed that he might die at any time.

Marshall heaved a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was a bit of buffer time and space, allowing him to find a way to solve the trouble.

But soon.Their hesitation was completely swept away by the news that followed.

On the west coast, the Chinese navy, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly showed its ferocity again, and cooperated with the army to launch a sudden and violent attack.

The ocean-going fleet has gathered six aircraft carriers and four super sea platforms, dispatched thousands of fighters of various types, and launched a fierce attack on Oregon, Washington, Idaho and even Montana, and will stalemate at the focus of the attack The U.S. military bombed indiscriminately.Killed countless, and eventually led to its total collapse.

subsequently.Under the cover of sea and air artillery fire, the Marine Corps successfully grabbed the beach, occupied the main coastal cities, and brought down Vancouver, Canada, and went all the way north to Alaska, completing the complete occupation of the west coast.Attack eastward along the land route, pushing all the way into Montana, all the way into Salt Lake City!

The sudden and aggressive offensive completely defeated the U.S. troops supporting the North Road, and they were suppressed from three sides.The U.S. forces attacking the direction of Carson and northern California retreated in an all-round way, and retreated to northern Nevada in embarrassment.

This put the first and second U.S. soldiers in the southward joint attack into a dangerous situation of being alone and deep. The North American front army, which had been on the defensive, suddenly rushed from three sides and attacked them head-on. The remnants of the army that had been cleaned up by aerial bombardment were cut into pieces, and most of them were annihilated or captured except for a quarter that fled into the northern mountainous area.

So far, Eisenhower's painstakingly formulated infiltration plan has failed completely. The defeated soldiers will be trapped in the vast desert and gobi, facing the dilemma of sudden attack by super weapons at any time, let alone organizing an attack, it will be extremely difficult to survive!

On the southern battlefield, the troops led by Bradley were hit head-on by Sima Jinming's Second Special Division. In the southern part of the lake, before they got out of the mountains, they were repaired by the main force of Wang Zhangtang's division who had been waiting for a long time, and they were repaired with unprecedented fierce artillery fire. The terrible terminal bombs and rockets raged in turn, making it difficult for the US military group to move an inch!

The reinforcements who went south from Salt Lake City for a feint attack were intercepted by the two forces of Yang Xiutang and Luo Zhendong who had recovered their strength. Very difficult.

Just a few days later, the first batch of reinforcements from mainland China finally arrived in North America. One hundred thousand elite soldiers in heavy armor quickly sent reinforcements to the theater to serve as the rear. Wang Zhangtang, who had endured for a long time, finally didn't need to look after the house, and decisively dispatched [-] of the main force. All the troops were dispatched to cooperate with the North Route Army to attack Salt Lake City fiercely. Under the threat from three sides, the U.S. Theater Command couldn't bear it anymore, and Eisenhower, who was under tremendous pressure, had to order a retreat.

Before mobilizing millions of troops, they didn't kill the opponent, but now they are counterattacked by hundreds of thousands of troops, and they can't resist it even more.Seeing that the situation was irretrievable, Roosevelt finally agreed to a strategic retreat. As a result, the U.S. Army, which had suffered heavy losses, immediately retreated like a tide. After half a month of fighting, the line of fire has retreated to the front line of Wyoming, Colorado, and New Mexico, and the two sides stopped.

This concession will truly completely hand over the western United States.

Zhu Bin's control area in the North American theater suddenly expanded by four or five times, and the input of hundreds of thousands of troops did not seem to be ample, but the defensive pressure would be greatly increased.Fortunately, the population in this area is pitifully small, and it only needs to occupy and control a dozen major cities and transportation nodes. Besides, there is no plan to attack in an all-out way for the time being, so it is not bad to stop like this.

And the person who was invited by Roosevelt to help make the connection was Song Ziwen who had some friendship before!After being contacted through people in Hongmen, he risked his life and arrived in Las Vegas to meet Zhu Bin, convey the meaning of the US government's peace talks, and even temporarily agree to the independence of the western states.

Zhu Bin directly vetoed it without even thinking about it. How about cheating the second idiot?Not to mention that the states in the United States are relatively independent, he will not do the kind of business that kills a snake and suffers from it.On the contrary, he teased Song Ziwen: "If the United States is also completely defeated, where else can you hide?"

Speaking of which, the four major families have caused him a lot of trouble in the past few years!There was Japan in the past and the United States in the future. The amount of various weapons and equipment smuggled out by them is huge.

Song Ziwen put on a picture of me who is at your mercy, which made Zhu Bin feel very bored.It's really boring to beat a dog in the water!

However, the weakened bombing expected by the US military has not been realized. On the contrary, it has been greatly strengthened with the increase of Zhu Bin's investment in advanced fighters!The entire industrial production efficiency is decreasing day by day, and the ability to support Europe is weakening, causing a series of bad changes! (To be continued..)
