Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 3071

Washington, D.C., White House, Truman stood up to end the four-and-a-half-hour meeting when the sky outside darkened.The process of the meeting was not beautiful, which can be seen from Truman's gloomy face-the entire Pacific Fleet was destroyed, and the former and current commanders of the fleet were all captured by the Chinese Navy. For Americans, it can be called World War II The worst failure ever.As many as nine fleet aircraft carriers plus several capital ships were either sunk or captured. This is certainly a very heavy loss for the United States, whose economic situation is in decline.But this is not enough to make Truman and his ministers and generals feel overwhelmed.What makes them even more unacceptable is the loss of personnel in this battle.In Knox's words, "We have plenty of aircraft carriers and cruisers in our docks, and we can arm them as soon as we need them. However, how to solve the problem of soldiers? We can't draw manpower from the Atlantic Fleet anymore, right?" You know, Nimitz is having a hard time right now."

Today is not the first time that the Truman administration wiped its ass for the failure of the Second Pacific War. The difference is that because the "Four Nations Summit" meeting is about to be held, in order to gain more say in the matter of anti-China, So Truman made up his mind and set the tone before the meeting, that is, this meeting must come up with a feasible aftermath plan.

There is no doubt that Truman is definitely a master in terms of political level alone.Therefore, even if the costly Second Pacific War ended in failure and led to the destruction of the entire Pacific Fleet for the third time.However, under his excellent operation, people seem to have forgotten that the United States initiated this war, and who was the culprit for this failure, and turned their attention to other places.Such as the Pacific market, such as the Chinese government's strong intervention in the situation in South America...

The excellent public opinion hype made Americans unite unprecedentedly on the China issue, and also allowed Truman to avoid the fate of being impeached.But these cannot change the embarrassing position of the United States in this round of world war.If everything could be repeated, Truman would surely regret the secret contract with Koizumi Toshiichiro.More than once, when Truman was alone at night, he had thought about this question.However, because he realizes that once he compromises on this matter, he will have an unpredictable and bad impact on his political life, and he is very likely to become a "scapegoat", so he has no choice but to stick to one path and go to the dark. choose.

The resolution came out, but it was definitely not what Truman wanted.The United States is different from China. Although the United States has a president, a secretary of state, and a secretary of defense, it is the "lords" in the Senate and the House of Representatives who really decide national policy. The reason why the "lords" are willing to fight is that many of them are full of patriotism, but more of them focus on profit and want to make money through war.So, when the war started to lose money, some of them were reluctant to give their spokesmen good looks.

Truman's original idea was to prepare to send more troops to South America in order to capture part of the Chinese army so as to facilitate the exchange of prisoners of war between the two countries and return the captured officers and soldiers of the Pacific Fleet headed by Jin.However, his idea was rejected by everyone as soon as he said it.

Compared with the Second Pacific War, the wars that took place on the South American continent and the Atlantic Ocean were actually more embarrassing for the Americans.First of all, it is a shame to be bullied by the Chinese at the doorstep; secondly, as of now, the United States has increased its troops in South America four times, and the number of ships in the Atlantic Fleet has almost doubled.However, in addition to expelling the Chinese navy from the Caribbean Sea, on the South American continent, the territory they controlled was more than half smaller.

The "lords" are always pragmatic.In their minds, due to geographical reasons, even if the Chinese government really intends to intervene in South American affairs, it is limited after all.However, it is very convenient for the United States to regain control of South America.Therefore, instead of spending a lot of war resources in South America, it is better to invest in Southeast Asia.At least, the Philippines should be taken over from the Japanese first.

This war has been fought so far, and for the "lords" of the US Senate and House of Representatives, it has actually become a gamble that they cannot afford to lose.The terrible thing is that they have obviously invested a lot of money in gambling, but they haven't seen any gains yet.At this time, it has become their most urgent need to increase investment and let part of the investment be realized first.

The process of the meeting got out of control, and the troop surge in South America became a troop surge in Southeast Asia. As president, Truman was naturally extremely dissatisfied.However, he also knew that he could not do without the support of the Senate and the House of Representatives, so although he was so angry that he scolded those capitalists for their short-sightedness, he still issued a series of orders and decided to send an additional 20 troops to fight in Southeast Asia.Then, sitting alone at the presidential desk, he was thinking about how to bargain with Toshiichiro Koizumi to take over the Philippines first to silence the group of congressmen, and Donovan walked in.

"Mr. President, there is an urgent call from Southeast Asia, and the Japanese are urging to build a factory in Australia again!"

Before this meeting, Truman would definitely not spend too much time on this telegram, but now, as he feels that he needs to ask Koizumi Toshiichiro, he feels that he should read this telegram seriously.I took it over and looked at it carefully, then frowned and said: "The Japanese didn't indicate the specific number of guards, this must be clarified! It is not impossible to set up a factory, and we can also sell them enough steel, but the price is not enough. It's open to question. You know, the senators and senators have already lost their eyes, and now we have to give them a little bit of sweetness, even if it is a little bit, to let them know that we are not ignoring their interests!"

"Our people reported that the Japanese were at a disadvantage in the Unknown War. Toshiichiro Koizumi's sudden call to urge the factory to be built should be related to this. If only a little price is raised, I don't think it is a problem."

"What about the Philippines? Do you think they're going to give us the Philippines?"

"Ah! This is unlikely! Mr. President, why do you suddenly want the Philippines? Do you really think that adding troops to Southeast Asia is a good choice at this time? Our army can't even win against the Japanese, but they can Win the Chinese?"

"It's not that I have this idea, but those congressmen. These bastards, they don't know the actual situation on the battlefield."

"If you insist, if I am Toshiichiro Koizumi, I think I will agree. Why not do it if you can have one more army to help you fight the Chinese?"
