Imperial Overlord

"What a joke! Who will help us solve the difficulties we face?" In the conference room of the US Congress, a congressman waved his fist and glared at the people around him.

The isolationist policy of the United States has always been prevalent. Many Americans are reluctant to participate in European affairs. They think that they don't need to worry about other people's affairs, and that developing themselves is the most important thing.

Because of such polls, the top U.S. government is also vacillating over whether to be overly involved in the European war, unable to come up with a unified decision.

President Roosevelt sat in his seat, looking at the quarreling members of Congress, his face was more helpless.

Isn't the so-called democracy a manifestation of meaning at this time? If he can really control the overall situation, then this democracy will be no different from dictatorship.

It is a pity that many, many Americans did not realize that the war was imminent, or at least did not see through it. This war is a world war that the United States must fight.

Even if the United States does not participate in the war against Germany and does not prevent Germany from launching this European unification war, then the United States still has another war to fight!

On the west side of the United States, on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, Japan, which has long been at loggerheads with the United States, is still expanding on the ancient Chinese land at this time.

Ignoring US warnings, Japan has fully expanded its war of aggression against China. This has brought the relationship between the United States and Japan to a freezing point, and has also made the defense line built by the United States in the Asia-Pacific region extremely tense.

In fact, the United States has long been waiting for a war with Japan, and Roosevelt and the United States under his leadership have long prepared everything for a war against Japan.

Even an idiot would not think that the powerful United States was not even prepared to participate in the division of the spoils before the Second World War.

The fact is, the United States not only has, but also several programs! Some helped Germany carve up the British colonies, and some broke Japan's monopoly on the Pacific Ocean.

There are always people who think that Japan's Pacific War was an idiot's decision.

But everyone knows that before the Pacific War began, Japan was strategically oppressed by the United States, and it became a state of starvation if it did not fight back.

There are only two paths in front of the Japanese high-level officials. One is to go to war with the United States, and the outcome can be reversed by one’s own efforts; the other is to be passive and wait for death.

Japan, who has become accustomed to betting on the fate of its own country, and has won twice in a row, under such circumstances, how can it be possible to choose the second method of death?

Therefore, whether it was the Emperor of Japan, or the practical faction, Yamamoto, etc., they all resolutely carried out the Pearl Harbor attack in the end, and no one objected.

Of course, before the war, Japan actually had its own calculations and analysis. It is not a blind gamble, which will be analyzed later.

Right now, in the congressional chamber, the quarreling American lawmakers are discussing whether the United States should send more volunteers to help the United Kingdom out of the predicament.

"Let 100,000 or more young Americans go to Europe and fight to the death for those nobles?" A congressman tapped on the table and asked his political opponent.

Another congressman spoke on the other side, and his words were also recognized by many people: "Who is going to bleed? Those are our children in America!"

Roosevelt seemed a little disdainful of the remarks of these people-if it was necessary, and there was no other way, then let hundreds of thousands or even millions of people die, and this must be chosen for the sake of this country!

If the European continent is occupied by the Germans, then for the United States, it will really be an additional terrifying enemy! This is something the United States is unwilling to accept, and it is not a very good future.

Especially when Roosevelt got some news... that was more invincible than the German panzer divisions, and made him more restless than the German submarine threat.

"There is intelligence showing that the German Nazi Party is giving up their radical national policy!" Thinking of this, he said to Marshall who was beside him.

Marshall is now the chief of staff of the U.S. Army, and he is also a senior U.S. general who supported Roosevelt and secretly dispatched troops to "voluntarily" carry out bombing missions on Crete.

He heard Roosevelt's beginningless opening, talking about a topic unrelated to the war, frowned and thought for a while: "This makes me very uneasy."

Roosevelt nodded and said in agreement: "I'm not afraid of the German expansion war in Europe... Even an invincible army cannot let Germany rule the whole of Europe!"

"It won't be long before they're going to mess up on their own, draining the production capacity of Europe and dragging down the domestic industry in Germany..." Roosevelt looked at Marshall and said his thoughts.

Earlier, one of the reasons Roosevelt sat firmly in Washington and watched Hitler go all out was that the Nazi party itself was like a flame and could not last long.

However, recently, the Nazi Party's national policy towards Jews has begun to adjust, and the voices of promoting the Aryan excellence theory have become less and less, and the new statement of advocating the greater German nation makes people shudder.

Roosevelt was afraid, the enemy was changing, and it was changing in a good direction, which made him feel the pressure.

The other side is trying to perfect Europe's tumultuous national theories, and it's trying to integrate European industry -- never good news for the United States.

The United States is not afraid of a Genghis Khan-like invasion like Hitler. Even if it swept the entire Europe, it was also destroying the entire European heritage.

That kind of **** would not last long, and at the same time let Europe bleed to the last drop of blood. The remaining ruins do not pose a threat to the United States.

But now, the Germans are trying to build Europe, they have to find a spiritual identity for Europe under which development will be possible...

"Now, they have exceeded our expectations, which is very bad." Roosevelt finally gave his own evaluation, a "very bad", and said everything in his heart.

Hearing his own president say this, Marshall suggested: "Mr. President... Our problem now is how to intervene in the war between Britain and Germany."

"There has been a campaign in the newspapers, but the effect is not obvious." He explained a little depressingly: "The people don't care much about the sinking of two civilian ships now."

"Besides!" Because it was too noisy, he got closer to Roosevelt: "The problem now is focused on the sea, on the Atlantic Ocean... This makes us very passive, the Germans are too aggressive."

Everyone knows that the main reason why Britain is passive everywhere is not the frontal battlefield. No matter how strong the German army is, there is an English Channel, which is enough to withstand millions of heroic divisions.

The trouble is with the German navy submarines, and the damned fleet of aircraft carriers now roaming the Atlantic. More specifically, it is a German carrier-based aircraft, as well as a battleship with an extremely high speed!

With these weapons and equipment, the huge fleet of the British navy has brute force, but it cannot prevent the opponent from attacking its line of communication.

If this kind of problem continues, next month or next month, the British mainland will collapse on its own, and there is no need for the Germans to fight!

If the United States wants to save Britain, it is not enough to rely on soldiers and supplies. What it needs to strengthen is the transportation line on the Atlantic, and nothing else.

As long as the supply of the British mainland is restored, then the United Kingdom will be able to survive on its own, and even have spare energy to help the United States weaken Germany!

If the supply of the British mainland cannot be restored, the United Kingdom can only wait for itself to collapse, and resisting the expansion of the Germans can only be empty words.

"You are an army general, and you also need to help the navy to find a way... The plan to dispatch a transport ship in the Pacific Ocean to go to the Atlantic Ocean... It is... It is too hasty." Roosevelt mentioned the recent plan depressedly.

Even Roosevelt himself acknowledged that the recent losses of American ships at sea were somewhat too great.

More than 100 transport ships from the United States were sunk within the British transport fleet. Most of the time, it can't be announced, because many of those ships still belong to the United States in name...

Going to the German theory, the German side also gave some perfunctory. Both sides are clear about the facts. The United States wants to make use of the topic, but suffers from the fact that the Congress does not buy it.

What is arguing at this moment is not Roosevelt's plan to let more American volunteers enter the British mainland to fight.

"Quiet! Quiet!" The official who maintained the order banged on the table ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ loudly reminding the quarrelling members, but there were still people talking, making the whole venue very noisy.

"I think, first of all, we need to build transport ships faster, cheap, sturdy, and easy to use transport ships." As an army general, Marshall's opinions are not professional.

He first gave his opinion on loss resistance or stop loss: "In addition, build more and more advanced destroyers, **** these ships, and transport as many materials as possible to the UK."

After talking about what to do with the German submarines, he turned to the German fleet: "As for the German fleet... Find a way to sink them!"

As a senior U.S. general, Marshall knew the best defense was the offense. Blindly parrying the enemy's attack is not a good choice.

If the troops can be assembled to sink the German fleet, then the British Navy can focus on dealing with submarines, and the pressure will naturally be much less.

"As for how to sink... it depends on the navy. I don't understand naval warfare, it's their duty." In the end, Marshall threw the blame to the navy and said to Roosevelt.
