Chapter 1556: Atlantic Line (1/2)
The Germans must be aiming at the United States. The Germans will not only be satisfied with conquering the entire Europe. The goal of the Germans is to conquer the entire world. Therefore, under this setting, the United States must go all out.
Upon hearing Roosevelt's words, the main responsible General Ernst and Marshall both reported separately.
”Now, the five aircraft carriers we have rushed to build in the shipyard are now in the final outfitting stage. When these five attack aircraft carriers are completed and launched, we can take a sigh of relief. At the same time, there are more than 20 aircraft carriers behind. Construction is underway.”
Ernst-Joseph-King, the five-star general of the U.S. Navy, the Secretary of the U.S. Navy Command and Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Fleet during World War II, and a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the U.S. Army. In these positions, he is the highest leader of the US Navy, directly responsible to the President, and directs the operations and strategy of the US Navy.
Now, although in the Pacific, the U.S. Navy is fighting the island navy, in fact, the U.S. Navy does not consider the navy of the island country. The navy is an arm of the country’s comprehensive national strength. The military industry of the island country cannot be supported at all. As long as the main warship of the island navy is killed in a decisive naval battle, the island navy will be abolished.
But Germany is different. Germany has integrated the entire Europe and has a shipbuilding industry that surpasses that of the United States. The speed of dumping dumplings on German warships is faster than that of the United States. The United States must pay attention to it.
The Atlantic Line of Defense is not just on the coastline. If it can win a decisive naval battle on the Atlantic, then the United States can protect its homeland security.
Therefore, the first is the growth of the Navy.
”Five, still not enough.” Roosevelt couldn't help but said.
These five are real attack-type aircraft carriers, not **** aircraft carriers. The United States has also started to build a large number of **** aircraft carriers, but they all know the combat effectiveness of that aircraft carrier.
”If we stop supporting the Soviet Union and put all our forces in our country, we can greatly increase the output of our warships.” Ernst said.
Reinforcing the Soviet Union also involves the energy of the United States itself.
Hearing what he said, Roosevelt's eyes flickered, and then it went black again. Stop supporting the Soviet Union? Then the Soviet Union collapsed immediately. The Soviet Union was buying more time for the United States to help the Soviet Union. It was helping the United States. Unfortunately, the German submarines were too powerful.
”We will set up our naval barriers in the North Atlantic. If the German fleet rushes to our coastline, it must be that our fleet is gone.” Ernst continued.
The navy is determined to protect the continental United States. If the Germans want to attack the continental United States, they must first defeat the American Atlantic Fleet.
Roosevelt nodded, and the report of the Navy Department was temporarily finished, and then Marshall continued to speak.
”We are carrying out a huge project on the Atlantic Defense Line. The amount of this project is almost comparable to the Great Wall of China in China. We have built a coastal defense along the Atlantic coastline, mainly with 406 heavy artillery and 380 heavy artillery as the core. If the German fleet wants to land, it must risk heavy casualties.”
