Chapter 1080: What About Our 500,000 Army?

In times of war, public opinion must be controlled, regardless of the country.

The mainstream of public opinion always follows politics, not war.

Even when the front is victorious, the exaggerated shadow of defeat can always snatch the last penny from the treasury, and even when the enemy knocks on the country's door, the song of victory may make the whole country revel.

Even in the United States, where public opinion is professed, true information can be revealed, but it will soon be drowned out in a multitude of carefully processed authoritative information.

The huge benefits created by the war have made the capital predators bite the throat of the media tightly.

It is one thing for the United States to use it as a weapon for the intrigue among the top leaders, and it is another thing to spread it to the broad masses of the people.

If even the United States itself is in the panic of war, the economic damage caused by this is something that the top government officials and predators do not want to see. If it weren't for China's bombing of the U.S. mainland, even many Americans would not have known about China's strong rise.

But even so, public opinion in the United States has been propagating that the United States itself is the last paradise of human civilization in the world away from war, and that the threat from China cannot cross the Pacific Ocean at all. Maybe it was attacked by the Chinese people in the air for a while, but it won't be in the future, even if Hawaii is attacked by the Chinese again.

Huaxia's slap in the face in Hawaii has caused some Americans to have a crisis of trust in Washington. However, after all, Hawaii is only an overseas colony of the Americans, not yet the official state capital of the United States, and the reason for being isolated from the mainland of the United States is still to immerse more Americans in the dream of a paradise concocted by American public opinion.

But the news that the Chinese army had captured Alaska and officially set foot on the American continent shattered this dream.

Since the Revolutionary War, which drove out the British, the United States has not been threatened for so many years. Even in the wars with Mexico and Spain, they were basically overseas and border. Even the Japanese, at most, went to Hawaii and the Aleutian Islands. But now the Chinese army is fighting directly from Eurasia to the American continent.

Although Alaska is also far from the mainland of the United States, it can be easily reached by land from Alaska to the northern border of the United States, along the vast and sparsely populated Canada. And in the previous propaganda. Many people know that there are tens of millions of troops in China, and there are 600 million Chinese people behind them.

"Cake sellers! The Yellow Peril is coming to the American continent! "The thought of the endless sea of people rushing toward the continental United States sends creeps in Americans' hearts.

"Where are our troops? Those troops sent to Europe should be withdrawn and defend our territory first! "Because of the isolationist tradition, combined with the damage to their own interests, more and more Americans are pressuring the government to quickly send reinforcements to Alaska. Be sure to keep the Chinese people out of their homeland.

……

"Withdraw European troops?" Roosevelt snorted coldly, "Then we will have lost all our efforts!" ”

Although Roosevelt could not say the idiom of encircling Wei and saving Zhao, he also knew that the Chinese offensive in Alaska and the Strait of Gibraltar was to relieve the pressure on the Germans. Because the previous attacks from the Ural Mountains, Central Asia, and the Middle East, although they stumbled Soviet Russia, they did not involve Britain and the United States, and at this time, it was Britain and the United States that attacked the Germans the most fiercely. Even the red tides in Europe. The driving force behind it was not Soviet Russia, but the indulgence and provocation of Britain and the United States.

Under the repeated blows, Germany was the weakest at this time. When the Americans saw the hope of victory, the withdrawal of troops from Europe was undoubtedly halfway.

Even if the crisis in Alaska is resolved, when the Germans recover their breath, I am afraid that they will have to face a vicious struggle between the two axis giants, and even Germany and China, which are more united. I am afraid that the crisis on the American mainland will be even greater.

"The armies of Europe cannot be withdrawn!" Churchill was also adamantly opposed.

The Americans can still protect themselves by withdrawing their troops. But as soon as the Germans eased up, in the case of the Chinese army entering Europe. I'm afraid the British were the first to be unlucky.

In any case, the Germans must be cleaned up first.

"Of course, our troops in Canada are willing to cooperate with your reinforcements to stop the Chinese in Alaska!" Churchill added.

He was also anxious.

In order to preserve the vitality of the British to the greatest extent, when the German army invaded the British mainland, the British transported a large amount of wealth, including a large number of industrial machinery, technical materials and various talents to Canada, and even had a plan to re-establish the country in Canada.

But at a time when Germany's power was declining and Britain was about to be reborn, Canada was in danger of being attacked.

The Chinese army's invasion of Alaska greatly touched the Americans and shocked the British even more.

As long as the Chinese army entered Canada along Alaska, Canada's wealth would suffer. I'm afraid it can only be moved to the greedy Americans. It's easy to say that gold and silver hard currency is hard currency, but as long as the technical data and talents enter the mouths of the Americans, I am afraid that there will be no return. In the face of the Americans, the new hegemon that surpassed Britain, the unwilling British were no less vigilant than they were to the Germans and the Chinese.

Even Churchill maliciously guessed that the ambitious Roosevelt would allow the Chinese army to move in order to buy time for the European battlefield, so that the British and Canadians had to exhaust themselves on the Canadian front line and wear out the last bit of vitality of this former empire on which the sun never sets.

So he had to take the initiative to offer the British troops in Canada to go to Alaska to help, as long as it was still on American soil, the Americans had to go up hard, and if the flowers and plants there were damaged, the British would not feel distressed.

"Hmm!" Roosevelt replied nonchalantly.

He doesn't mind where the battlefield is, even in Alaska, it doesn't matter if he shatters the desolation there. I don't care who is the dominant on the battlefield in Alaska, anyway, as long as the Chinese army fights Alaska, it must be the British who are unlucky first, and I don't worry that they don't work hard to cooperate.

……

But neither the Americans nor the British expected that the Chinese would attack so quickly.

Originally, Britain and the United States thought that the Chinese army would cross the corner of the Far East covered with snow, and after crossing the Bering Strait, where the ice was staggered, in the face of the deserted Alaskan wasteland, the difficulty of logistics supply would inevitably make them steady and steady, and slowly accumulate troops, but unexpectedly, Huaxia put out a forward team of 300,000 at the beginning, and with the support of the Alaska sub-base, it quickly swept through most of Alaska.

In just five days, the Chinese armored forces quickly crossed the Yukon River, and then it took only three days to capture Fairbanks, a military town set up by the Americans during World War II.

Huaxia moved so quickly that even the harvest of the gold and silver mines near Fairbanks did not have time to evacuate, and all of them became the spoils of war in Huaxia.

Following the passage of the gold miners, the Chinese army made a rapid advance to the Canadian border in the southeast.

The torrent of steel swept through, and there was no enemy for three days along the way.

……

"What about our army? Isn't there still 500,000? Although there were follow-up arrangements, and the safety of Alaska did not affect the overall situation, Roosevelt still felt a little uncomfortable on his face.

The American army in Alaska was defeated too quickly, and even the British and Canadian troops supporting it had not yet reached the border, and the Chinese were about to fight to Canada first.

"When the Chinese harassed the Arctic Ocean, we sent two divisions to strengthen the defenses in the north, and also to prevent the Chinese from raiding from the Aleutian Islands and the south, we had 150,000 troops concentrated south of the Alaska Mountains. In addition, three divisions have been in charge of clearing out the Chinese harassing forces in various places. Marshall paused at this point.

Needless to say, the 150,000 troops near the Bering Strait were no longer mentioned, after the news of 30,000 casualties and 50,000 captured came from the front, the remaining 60,000 or 70,000 were blocked in various remote corners, and the Chinese army that was rapidly advancing did not bother to pay attention to them at all. In the face of the Chinese support troops constantly pouring in from the Bering Strait, these are just an army calling for reinforcements, and it is a miracle that they can shrink and no longer lose, and even the American top brass does not expect their counterattack.

The garrisons to the north and south were separated by the Chinese army that ran all the way southeast along the area south of the Yukon River and north of the Alaska Mountains.

The Huaxia army couldn't care about cleaning them up for a while, and they didn't have time to hold back the Huaxia army that was rapidly attacking.

The only ones who could maneuver quickly were the three divisions that cleared the Huaxia special forces.

The harassment of the Chinese special forces has become a major problem for the US military in Alaska, and the continuous casualties and the low morale caused by it have made the US military not hesitate to encircle and suppress it. But in the vast Alaskan wilderness, no matter how many American troops scatter it, there are loopholes everywhere. Moreover, the sub-base solved the most difficult logistical supply problem for these special forces, so that the American troops who had been trying to wait in towns and other places did not even get a bird feather, only a pitiful record in a few encounters.

These armies would still have the upper hand if they fought an encounter with the Huaxia special forces, but as a scattered support force, as soon as they encountered the armored Huaxia army, they were immediately defeated by the continuous crushing of the Chinese army, and after an additional 50,000 casualties, they were no longer able to stop the Huaxia chariot.

The US army, which has always had a small proportion of combat personnel, even if it has a false name of 500,000, is at a loss against the 300,000 Chinese forward troops that rely on the sub-bases to relieve the logistical pressure, and can only watch as the Chinese army presses straight towards the Canadian border.
