Chapter 1451： Can the Soviet Union hold it? (2/2)
It now appears that the Germans were not willing to fight on multiple fronts in order to concentrate their full efforts on attacking the Soviet Union, and just so, if Free France began to attack vigorously northward, the Germans would have to divide their forces to deal with them.
This greatly reduces the pressure on Moscow.
Now, the United States can only help the Soviet Union in this way. This is already the maximum.
Libya in North Africa is the most important oil base and secret military industrial base for the Germans. As long as it threatens here, it will make Germany have to divide its forces to deal with it.
Rommel was well-known in the process of conquering Africa and the Middle East, but many of his troops were transferred to the Soviet Union. Germany had very few troops in North Africa. At this time, it happened to regain lost ground!
”If we can bomb Libya's oil fields and make the Germans lack of fuel, then we can also support the Soviets in fighting.” MacArthur continued.
The Germans bombed the oil fields of the Soviets and wiped out the largest oil fields all at once. Although the small oil fields owned by the Soviets are now at full capacity, they cannot maintain the operation of the army.
Following the law, bombing the German Libyan oil fields also gave the Germans a taste of oil shortage.
In the past, the United States used its brains on Libyan oil fields, but there were shares of American Petroleum Corporation in it, and even the unfortunate situation in which oil company executives were bombed has caused negative public opinion.
But now, with the war between the two countries, Germany has taken back its shares in foreign oil companies, and it has become completely German ~~ Therefore, bombing Libyan oil fields is an exciting choice.
”We must fully consider the difficulty of the bombing. The Germans have powerful fighters, including night fighters. They are very tough. Whether it is day or night, we need to consider the terrible casualties of their oil field bombing.” Arnold said: ” This kind of casualties will even be too high for us to bear.”
The United States does not have a technical advantage and the oilfields are tightly guarded. Even if the United States uses the 29 bomber that has just been put into production, it will still suffer high losses.
Roosevelt nodded: ”Yes, we will suffer high losses, but this is a war, a war, and it will kill people. Everyone, have you forgotten Oak Ridge?”
The bombing of the Oak Ridge base almost wiped out the US nuclear weapons development capabilities. After investigation, the German bombers did it. This is a huge shame to the Americans.
Don’t be afraid of the dead in war. Helping the Soviet Union is helping the United States!
Roosevelt’s attitude was firm, and just before he had made a formal decision, Nimitz changed the subject: “The telegrams we have recently detected on the island nation are transmitted very intensively, which is very similar to the last time the island nation attacked Pearl Harbor. We guess that the islanders may be planning a sneak attack on us.”
Nimitz's words really attracted everyone's attention. Now, the US Navy is gradually recovering its vitality. It would be terrible if the islanders were to bomb again.
”Where do the islanders want to bomb us? This time we must be prepared to hit the islanders severely!”
Facing everyone’s questions, Nimitz said: “Aleutian Islands. Our intelligence agency confirmed that the target of the islanders’ offensive is our Aleutian Islands through a small means.”
