United States, White House.

At this time, it was already afternoon, and it was about to reach the end of work, and the sun was casting down from the west, stretching the shadows long on the ground.

Controlling his wheelchair, Roosevelt didn't let his assistant push him, and, as if he was racing, he spun the wheels so fast that the chrome spokes shone brightly.

The wheelchair rushed directly into the elliptical table room, and at this time, everyone's faces and expressions were happy.

"I just received news that our navy has finally discovered a submarine in the Pacific Ocean, and at this time, it is attacking the submarine." After receiving the news, Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox, who personally rushed to report the news, said to Roosevelt who came in.

With a dashing tail flick, Roosevelt docked his wheelchair to the side of the conference table, and his hand, patting the table, said happily: "This is really good news!" ”

The German bombing of the east coast of the United States was indeed a well-planned conspiracy, and it was even caught, and now the whole country is suspicious of the Roosevelt administration.

However, in the Pacific Ocean, American ships were attacked, and that is absolutely true, and the submarines of the Germans, not only in the Atlantic, but even in the Pacific Ocean, are not only in the Atlantic, but even in the Pacific Ocean, is this not a clear intention to encircle the United States?

The United States will certainly not tolerate such behavior, as long as the people know the truth, then it is possible to declare war on Germany.

The confidence of the United States comes from the New World, and it is absolutely safe to be separated from the Old World by the ocean, but what will happen if the Germans are active in the oceans on both sides? No American would put up with it!

As a belligerent leader, Roosevelt now had to hide his true thoughts and present himself as a peace-loving person, which was very painful, and he was already annoyed by the daily questioning of Congress.

And the U.S. Navy also searched the Pacific Ocean every day, trying to find traces of German submarines.

However, the Germans, as if missing, did not appear for a long time, and even the navy used fishing tactics and swaggered transport ships to lure, and the German submarines did not take the bait.

I thought the German submarine had left! At this time, good news finally came!

"Gotta get the proof!" Roosevelt said: "Even if we only get a single corpse of a German submariner, it will be a great victory that will completely reverse our current passive situation." ”

Not just to reverse the current passive situation, but to see the situation that Roosevelt most wanted to see, the whole country was outraged by the behavior of the Germans, and then unanimously passed a declaration of war on Germany.

Anyway, Germany can't fight now, and the battlefield will be mainly in the Middle East, North Africa and Europe, and the United States will mainly provide resources and weapons, using the resistance forces of the French and British colonies to consume the strength of the Germans, and when the time is ripe, the main force of the United States will be dispatched to bulldoze Europe.

In this way, the whole of Europe, that is the United States!

The determination of the United States to become the world's boss has never changed.

All this, you need evidence, as long as there is evidence, it is clear that it is German, then it is enough.

Even if the scene is not caught, as long as the German submarine appears in the Pacific Ocean, this is a threat to the United States, a declaration of war!

"Yes, we are now mobilizing more surface ships to go over, and even if we sink their submarines, we must salvage them." Frank said.

"Okay, then let's discuss the war situation, a unified Europe is definitely not what we want to see." Roosevelt continued: "While the British and French colonies are still fighting, we must support them, and I think we can first send some of the elite troops over and lead them into battle as instructors for the colonial troops." ”

Britain and France, will definitely fall, the United States sent people to the colonies, of course, also to receive those colonies, it can't be cheap Germans, right?

As soon as Roosevelt had just started, he saw Secretary of State Hull, who was anxiously approaching.

"Mr. President, the ambassador of the island nation urgently asks for a meeting." Hull said.

Ambassadors of island nations? What is he here for? Roosevelt was a little confused: "Can you ask him to come back tomorrow?" ”

Roosevelt pointed to the clock hanging on the wall, it was past six o'clock in the afternoon, it was not working time, and now, he was saying that he was in the mood, he did not want to lose this opportunity, he could not wait.

"He's here to convey the protest of the island government against us," Hull said, "and the island government is protesting against us in the Pacific Ocean, besieging a returning submarine from the island nation." ”

What the? Roosevelt's face changed instantly: "Frank, can the Navy confirm it?" Is it the submarine of the Germans that is besieging now? ”

Frank also stood up: "Mr. President, judging from the current situation, the navy has confirmed that the siege is a German submarine, this should not be a German conspiracy, right?" ”

With a gloomy face, Roosevelt motioned for his assistant to push the wheelchair out of the conference room, and when he came to another room, he saw an islander with the same serious expression.

Kichizaburo Nomura, a native of Wakayama Prefecture and a naval admiral, was a famous politician and diplomat active during the Showa period.

As a member of the navy, Nomura did not make a career in the navy, but served as the chief navigator of the cruisers "Jiyuan", "Gyōshi", and "Takachiho", etc., and then was promoted to the rank of lieutenant in the navy and became a lieutenant in the navy department.

The turning point in his life was that he served as a naval attaché to the United States, participated in the negotiation of the Washington Naval Treaty as a key attaché, and formed a deep friendship with Franklin D. Roosevelt, then the US Navy undersecretary and later president.

Nomura Kichizaburo is an American expert and a pro-American faction within the island country, he has seen the strength of American industry and knows that the island country cannot be compared with the United States in any case.

And just after he became ambassador to the United States, he encountered this incident, which made him very nervous, this matter, once wrong, will lead to terrible consequences!

The officers at the lower level did not know, but Kichizaburo Nomura was a person who understood, and knew that the US Navy, which was in a hurry to turn red because of being hit by a German submarine in the Pacific Ocean, had hit the wrong person this time.

"President Franklin, I hope you will order an immediate cessation of military operations in the Pacific, because you are besieging an I-74 submarine of our island navy, not a German submarine." When he saw Roosevelt come in, he immediately went straight to the point, relying on his friendship to explain the problem directly.
