Imperial Overlord

Two months, the word Roosevelt is too familiar. In the past ten days, the one time he has heard the most is two months!

Britain provided a lot of intelligence, such as Germany planting a large and efficient spy agency at the top of the UK - the flashpoint of this incident was just two months ago.

Two months ago, Britain was preparing to surprise the French fleet stationed abroad that surrendered to Germany. As a result, the battleship Resolve was lost, and the H fleet has not been relieved so far.

Also two months ago, Germany began a large-scale purge of domestic spy agencies, including spies from the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Soviet Union, all of which were inexplicably killed.

It was still two months ago that the intelligence agencies sent back the last credible information that Germany was mass-producing new fighter jets.

It was also two months ago that the Germans discovered oil in Libya, which turned the North African battlefield from a chicken rib into another main battlefield.

The whole world war situation has also become quite delicate with the discovery of this oil field.

Counting the time, the Germans started air raids on London on August 1, and it took two days to completely destroy the air defense system in the southeastern part of the British mainland. The preparations for this air raid should also be from more than two months ago. Started!

Of course, one of the more interesting things is that two months ago, the French de Gaulle government in exile provided an interesting announcement-they organized an operation to assassinate Hitler, which seemed to fail...

"So many things happened two months ago. Who can tell me what happened more than two months ago, when France was defeated?" Roosevelt looked at the four aides in front of him and asked. .

"Mr. President, we can't investigate this yet!" The intelligence officer replied helplessly.

"Building an oil field cannot be completed in two months! Now the power of the Libyan oil field has not fully erupted, and it has already made us so uncomfortable." Roosevelt shook his head, feeling a bit bitter on the tip of his tongue.

His support for Britain to fight this war actually has to pay a price, not only for domestic opposition, but also for the consumption of the United States itself.

It is said that the United States has unparalleled production capacity and that the United States is vast and abundant, but who can say whether the materials that produce these weapons and equipment are actually produced by the United States?

During the whole process of World War II, the United States produced tens of thousands of M4 tanks, hundreds of thousands of aircraft of various types, 30 aircraft carriers, and hundreds of **** aircraft carriers.

If you include the famous free wheel and other auxiliary equipment, steel, petroleum and rubber, does the United States that took out these materials really feel no difficulty at all?

In real history, at the end of World War II, the United States mobilized more than 10 million troops - the United States won the war, but it definitely did not "win"!

Germany has discovered a new resource point, which is equivalent to opening a sub-mine when playing games, and the resources will increase accordingly.

Continuing to consume an opponent with more resources will obviously consume more materials, which is obviously a painful thing.

"As much as possible to help Britain stabilize the North African battlefield! If the North African battlefield loses, we really have a hard time believing that Britain will continue to persevere." Roosevelt said helplessly.

Yesterday, several congressmen who opposed the US entry into the war came to the White House to lobby Roosevelt, hoping that Roosevelt would not disregard the interests of the United States and get involved in the war in Europe and put the entire Pacific Ocean in danger.

Before the outbreak of the war, the Nazi party in the United States also had a lot of power. The raising of hands was also very popular in the United States. It was not until the outbreak of the war that the United States suppressed local Nazi activities.

However, in comparison, there are very few domestic affairs in the United States. Its current situation is much better than that of the British mainland, which is afraid of being bombed every day.

However, the United States is too peaceful now, and the war has spread in Europe, the heart of the world.

On the other side of the Asian battlefield, Japan's expansion has shaken America's core interests in the Pacific.

Under the cover of all the feasting, is the embarrassment and helplessness that the United States may be caught in a two-front war. It is also the responsibility and pressure of the United States to shoulder the identity of the world's factory.

"The intelligence in this area is that we still have two reliable eyeliners in Italy." The intelligence officer said this with some spirit.

He spread out a few photos and some telegrams, and reported: "The German side is frantically rushing to transport oil equipment to Africa, and there is news from the French colonies that they have seen a large amount of equipment arrive."

"French colony? The Germans are taking advantage of France's Bizerte! They are really careful!" Rubbing his temples with his hands, the military representative praised.

The transportation capacity of North Africa was originally very tight. In fact, supporting Rommel's attack on Egypt almost made the ports of the entire Italian colony run at full capacity.

Roosevelt calculated that the construction of oil fields in Germany would not be too smooth, and actually considered this issue.

Now the problem is, because Germany saved the French fleet, and cooperated lightly with the French fleet several times in the form of hire. At this time, it is not a problem to use French ports and transportation forces to transfer some "civil equipment"!

Bizerte is a port with a throughput of more than 20,000 tons, which is similar to that of Tripoli. It is perfectly suitable for transporting civilian materials that do not need to be sent to the front line.

The oil equipment that landed here does not have to cross the long supply line to Baierdi or even Matru, it only needs to go to the central plains of Libya!

Including the terrible North Africa where some petroleum products can already be produced and gasoline is no longer scarce, this distance is much shorter than originally imagined!

"The problem is complicated now! We can no longer estimate the construction speed of Libyan oilfields according to the speed of our own assessment!" The person in charge of the industrial department expressed his concerns from his own professional point of view.

If he knew that Germany was secretly producing a kind of "floating dock" in Italy to be towed directly to Sirte by ship, and to build it into a port with a throughput of more than 100,000 tons, I wonder what he would think.

Li Le originally developed a floating dock to prepare for landing in the UK soon, but soon, the problem of insufficient transportation capacity in North Africa jumped out of the picture, and the German Navy came up with this method to solve the problem of transportation capacity for the army. .

As a result, this floating pier immediately became a magic weapon to save the transportation of materials in North Africa. It was secretly built in Italy without even a day's work.

As Germany's secret weapon, although this thing can't cross the battlefield like a tiger tank, it can ensure that countless tiger tanks can eat and drink - this can only be said to be great in two directions.

"It is impossible to estimate. The worst possibility is that Libya can already produce some simple products such as gasoline!" Roosevelt nodded and said.

"Then don't be stingy. We don't have the conditions to be stingy anymore." The military representative looked at Roosevelt and persuaded him.

Originally, he did not approve of too many weapons and equipment, as well as strategic supplies to the United Kingdom. But the situation has changed, and he dare not continue to stubbornly insist on his own ideas.

Seeing that military representatives disapproving of expanded support for Britain had changed their minds, Roosevelt knew that something had to be decided at once.

He thought for a while, then said to the head of diplomacy on the side, "The plan needs to be changed... 500 tanks, we will try our best to squeeze out the British, and at the same time find a way to get 400 fighter jets for them!"

This amount is estimated to be twice the amount of weapons and equipment assistance that the United Kingdom hopes to actually receive, and the face of the person in charge of foreign affairs immediately shows a relieved expression.

How long? In the past few months, the pressure on his shoulders has increased, and he even started to have constipation because of this matter~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The British side is even worse, I know why Churchill asked for 2000 when he opened his mouth. Tanks and 300 fighter jets?

Because in the beginning, when they asked for something, they could only get half or less. So the British began to open their mouths, hoping that the Americans would come up with a little more!

They were all forced by the current battle situation. It was really a very sad battle situation. The head of foreign affairs looked at the military representative with a constipated expression on his face, and almost didn't laugh out loud.

In the previous meetings, after the end, he went to the British to negotiate with such an expression. This time, it was finally the military representative's turn to eat a deflated meal.

You must know that people who say 300 tanks and 300 aircraft now are not produced things.

These equipments were actually moved out of the military's active-duty equipment, and they are the real American "active-duty equipment".

Although most of the equipment is facing elimination and replacement, the new products are still on the production line, aren't they?

As the saying goes, if the old does not go, the new will not come, but the current situation of the US team is that the old has gone, but the new has not yet come.

This is more embarrassing, because at this time, there is still an Asian perverted Japan staring at the United States in the Pacific Ocean!

"Find a way as soon as possible. If it doesn't work, mobilize a group of bombers to the United Kingdom, and let them find a way to destroy the oil fields in Libya!" Roosevelt thought of giving more bombers to the United Kingdom.

The person in charge of the industry did not speak for a long time, and finally found an opportunity for him to play: "Mr. President, then the United Kingdom must pay the price of two more ports!"
