Chapter 1139： Landing countdown (1/2)
The explanation is to cover up, no matter how strong the reason is, it cannot cover up the fact that the US military is inadequate. Repeated emphasis on the strength of the enemy is nothing more than making excuses for failure.
But don't make excuses, you have to be in the wrong. Even if you want to show the courage to take on the side, it is definitely not this time.
No one expected the situation to reach this point. Before launching the offensive, Roosevelt could not have imagined that the seven countries of the Ocean Alliance could not even take down their enemy colonies.
Looking through the history books, you will know that the vast territory of the United States was captured from the colonial empire.
At that time, each of these countries was stronger than the United States, but because of geographical factors, the ultimate winner was the United States.
There are still British people holding on to the front, blocking the connection between the enemy and the colony. It is the best time to start. There is no reason for multi-nation cooperation to fail.
The foolproof plan ended in failure. Unlike previous territorial struggles, this time the enemy behaved exceptionally brutal.
Just hit a nail in Cuba, anyway, the enemy’s strength is insufficient, as long as it consumes it, there is hope of victory.
Central America, the most important Austrian species, is in trouble. The local immigrants are all hedgehogs, so they **** them when they touch them.
The intent to invade was just revealed, and the coalition forces had not yet been assembled, so they had to fight out first.
The two allies of Mexico and Colombia have now been held in the ground by the enemy. If the United States does not take action, they will surrender.
As for other allies, the top three in South America have a bit of fighting power. However, in Roosevelt's view, the ”three strong” had too much water and had nothing to do with the ”strong”.
The two powers of Argentina and Chile can't help but how can a country with a population of less than one million be considered a powerful country.
The most important thing is that the two countries will not be able to send troops to reinforce Colombia without pulling out this nail and stabilizing their rear.
Allies who fight with soy sauce ignore it first, just because Brazil has sent tens of thousands of reinforcements, it cannot protect the Republic of Colombia.
In this context, the United States will divide its forces, and at the same time, it will reinforce Colombia and Mexico, and by the way, it will take Cuba.
The military is obviously overwhelmed with such a heavy task. Unless you are fighting a war of attrition and using your national strength to slowly grind the enemy to death, you really won't see a chance of winning.
It's just that the reality is cruel. As the war progresses, the international situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for the Ocean Alliance.
The country that was originally inclined to Shinra is now ready to move. If Britain loses again, these countries will probably end.
Everyone does not care whether other countries participate in the war, but the confederate countries next door must consider it.
Although the British used economic means to tie up the confederate states and keep them neutral, the political thing may be repeated at any time.
It was difficult to pull the nails, but if another group of enemies were added, the subsequent battles would be even more impossible.
It is too late to regret, political slogans have been shouted out, the ambition of the United States has been exposed, and the Vienna government is now even more unlikely to let them go.
”The America of the Americans” can also be understood as the ”America of the Americans.” If this goal is achieved, Theodore Roosevelt will become one of the greatest presidents in the history of the United States, just like the original time and space.
Unfortunately, the door opened badly, and suffered a blow. But at this point, only bite the bullet and fight.
Even if you can't win, you must prove your strength on the battlefield so that the enemy will not dare to insult.
There is no need to reach the top level in the world. As long as the US military demonstrates the combat effectiveness of a second- and third-rate country, the Vienna government must think twice when settling accounts after the fall.
...
In the English Channel, with the launch of the ”Sea Lion Project”, all the main navies of the Continental Alliance countries gathered here.
There are more than 180 warships, large and small, and the scene is huge. Especially the 36 super battleships headed by them are even more magnificent.
If the British can launch a sneak attack and kill the fleet in front of them, the Continental Alliance will not be able to turn over for at least five years.
But looking at the planes hovering in the sky, you know that it is impossible to launch a sneak attack without first solving the eyes of the sky.
Just think about it. The Air Force is Britain's shortcoming. Whether it is flight altitude, flight speed, or flexibility, British fighter jets are one era behind.
The backwardness of the entire industrial system cannot be caught up in a short while. No matter how much you invest, it will take time.
On the unobstructed sea, there is no dominance in the air, only to be ambushed.
Just look at the Royal Navy. Seeing that the war is about to start, the Royal Navy has been slow to enter.
There is no shortage of good ports in the English Channel, but the problem is that the ports are within the bombing range of enemy aircraft. When this time passes, the sheep will enter the tiger's mouth.
Originally, after the completion of the navies of the Continental Alliance countries, the Royal Navy would not have the advantage. If it were bombed by the enemy air force, it would be even more difficult to fight.
The Malacca naval battle is a typical case. The enemy first wounded a warship with an airplane, and then the navy rushed to make up for it, easily securing the victory.
learn from mistakes. The Royal Navy, which has learned its lessons, decided to stay away from the Shinra Air Force.
In normal times, you can hide. Now the enemy is going to land on the British Isles, and you will be gone for hiding.
As Secretary of the Navy, Swinding is now under great pressure, for fear that he would accidentally ruin the Royal Navy and become a sinner in Britain.
Of course, he is not the only one who feels the pressure. There is one high-level British government, and all of them are now under ”high pressure.”
Just like before the storm, the air was filled with a depressive atmosphere, suffocating.
...
”From the information collected, the enemy has completed the assembly and will launch an attack on us in the near future.
The time has come to test the British Empire. Although we have lost in previous wars, we will never give in. We will fight to the end.
Unlike any previous battles, our military strength is now unprecedentedly abundant, and 40 million British people are our strongest backing.
The enemy chose to attack the British Isles. The turn is a mistake. Here we have...”
——On April 27, 1905, Prime Minister Campbell's ”Declaration on the Defence of Britain”.
To judge whether a country or a nation is great or not, you will know by its performance in times of crisis.
Being able to stand out from many competitors and dominate the world, Britain naturally has its advantages.
As the situation continues to deteriorate, perhaps everyone has realized the danger, and the internal struggle of the British government has gradually eased.
