Chapter 1272: Stupid Chinese
On the transport plane returning to Beijing, the Emperor and Marshal Jiang Baili, Chief of the General Staff, sat in their seats and exchanged views on the situation. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Although, the fact that our nuclear explosive device has been successfully detonated means that we have one foot in the threshold of possessing nuclear weapons. However, there is still some time before we have nuclear weapons, and we are really fighting at war. In addition, because of the nature and power of nuclear weapons, even if we have them, we cannot use them lightly. Therefore, in this world war, we mainly rely on the army, navy and air force of the empire, and they are an important guarantee for the empire to win this world war. Wu Haoxuan said.
He feared that the appearance of nuclear weapons would affect the motivation of the Reich* army. That's not going to happen. Even if the Empire had nuclear weapons, it would not use them casually. Besides, the production of five pieces a year is not much, and at most it is a deterrent to all countries. In order to truly destroy a country, it is obviously unrealistic to rely on just a few atomic bombs. Unless the Empire can develop a more powerful hydrogen bomb.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Marshal Jiang Baili nodded.
"Still, if necessary, we will use the atomic bomb. For example, after we defeat Soviet Russia, we want to tear our faces with the Germans, we can drop a few atomic bombs in Berlin or in the German assembly area, completely solve the living forces of the Germans, and easily defeat them. Or, drop atomic bombs on the U.S. mainland to destroy their big cities or fleet bases. Enabling the Empire to force the United States to throw in the towel. Of course, these are all questions that need to be considered later, and it is too early to tell. Wu Haoxuan said.
"Your Majesty, the atomic bomb is nothing more than an invincibility for the Empire. If the Empire wants to truly win the war, it needs to be defeated on the battlefield with dignity. Marshal Jiang Baili said.
"The main direction of the empire's operations next year will still be in the Pacific direction. We need to take over the whole of Australia and the islands in the Pacific next year, and completely dismantle the US military bases in the Pacific. If necessary, it could even embark on a landing in the Americas to prepare the Empire for a future attack on the United States. As for Soviet Russia, they have already been beaten after this battle. I believe that for a long time to come, they will not dare to take the initiative to attack us. So, in the next year, the empire will still be on the defensive on the Western Front. If necessary, in South and West Asia, an offensive can be launched next year to take these areas down in one fell swoop. Wu Haoxuan said.
"According to the plan we have been given, the Germans are actively preparing to attack Britain and France. It is expected that they will be on the offensive after next spring. The General Staff assessed the German military might in the Polish campaign and concluded that the French would not be able to withstand the German attack and that they would be quickly defeated. As for Britain, there were straits separating them, and at the same time the German navy was weak. It would be very difficult for Germany to land on Britain and destroy Britain. Marshal Jiang Baili said.
"We can sit back and watch the Germans occupy Western Europe, but we cannot sit idly by and watch them destroy Britain. If they destroy the British, then they will not have any threat in the Atlantic direction, and they can even build an Atlantic barrier to prevent the enemy in the west, and then concentrate on mobilizing troops to attack Soviet Russia and compete with the empire for the Eastern European Plain. This is unacceptable to the Empire. The presence of Britain was conducive to Britain and the United States using Britain to attack Germany. For example, sending a large number of long-range bombers to bomb Germany's industrial base and deplete Germany's war potential. In this way, Germany had to deploy a large number of troops on the Western Front, which was also of great help to the Reich. Wu Haoxuan said.
Marshal Jiang Baili nodded, in this war, he constantly weakened Germany and laid out the post-war layout for the empire, which has not changed from beginning to end. Of course, the Germans had been doing the same thing all along, and they were constantly making trouble for the Reich. This time the Soviet Russian attack on the Reich would have been absolutely impossible without the prodding of the Germans.
"So, before the Germans had swept through Western Europe and decided to launch a landing plan against Britain, we had to prepare for an attack on Soviet Russia, and let the Germans know that if they didn't attack Soviet Russia, they would have nothing to gain. I think that Adolf Hitler will definitely demand that the army immediately launch an operation on the Eastern Front. At that time, they would have to abandon the British landing operation. Britain and the United States will inevitably take this opportunity to cause big trouble for the Germans. Wu Haoxuan said with a smile.
"Your Majesty is wise." Marshal Jiang Baili said.
Although, the deceit between countries made him, a soldier, feel a headache and immoral. However, it is often necessary to put the moral code aside for the sake of the national interest. If we still talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality at such times, the final result will be that we will not be able to gain anything, and we will only see other countries gain a lot of benefits.
"Your Majesty, because the Empire has stopped launching further attacks on Soviet Russia, there have been a lot of slanderous statements in the international community." Foreign Minister Gu Shaochuan said with a smile.
"Oh? How so? Wu Haoxuan asked with a smile.
"Many countries think that we are asking for trouble. After Soviet Russia has regained its strength and even become stronger, it will be even more difficult to defeat and destroy Soviet Russia again. When the time comes, we will pay a much greater price. Gu Shaochuan said.
"Haha! Let them do as they say. Soon they will know what the Empire is doing this. When the time comes, they will also know who is a fool and who is a fool. Wu Haoxuan said with a smile.
The Empire is fighting this war according to its predetermined plan, and will not change its predetermined plan because of the irresponsible words of other countries. Besides, the emperors and ministers of the empire knew that the plan that the empire insisted on was correct and would bring victory to the empire, and that was enough.
Berlin, the capital of Germany, was originally waiting for the Germans to see the Chinese Empire and Soviet Russia continue to fight on the icy Eastern European Plain. However, the advance of the Imperial Army actually stopped after advancing to the Volga, which left the Germans dumbfounded.
"What are the Chinese doing? Why didn't they continue to attack Soviet Russia? Don't they know that Soviet Russia has been hit hard by them? If we launch an attack now, even if we can't destroy Soviet Russia, it will inflict further heavy losses on Soviet Russia. This will be very conducive to the complete destruction of Soviet Russia in the future. Adolf Hitler said with a frown at the Führer's house.
"My Führer, the reaction of the Chinese, is indeed somewhat unexpected by everyone. We suspect that the Chinese suffered significant losses in previous battles. In addition, it was already very difficult to fight on the cold plains of Eastern Europe. Cold weather can cause a lot of non-combat attrition. The Eastern European Plain is very far away from China, and their war materials need to be transported from China, which makes their supply lines very long. The fighting in those days made the Chinese consume a lot of war materials. That's why they had to give up fighting against Soviet Russia. Marshal Brauchitsch said.
Adolf Hitler nodded in agreement. It's just that he still has some resentment about it.
"Originally, we hoped to use Soviet Russia to consume the strength of the Chinese Empire. But now it seems that Soviet Russia simply could not do it. If the war can continue, it will be able to make the two of them shed more blood. But now they've stopped. This was not a good thing for the Third Reich. Hitler said.
Originally, he wanted to use Soviet Russia and the Chinese Empire to consume each other's strength, so that they could confidently and boldly launch an attack on Western Europe next spring and summer. After settling Western Europe, it was time to go back and attack Soviet Russia. At that time, Soviet Russia had long been exhausted by the attack of the Chinese Empire. The Third Reich was able to win without much cost. At the same time, the Chinese Empire would also consume a lot of strength in Soviet Russia, which would help the Third Reich maintain its superiority over the Chinese Empire in Europe and thus ensure their interests.
"My Führer, now we can only attack Western Europe first according to the predetermined goal. After we have swept through Western Europe, we will launch an attack on Soviet Russia as appropriate. Admiral Keitel said.
Hitler nodded, there was no way around it. Although, in his mouth, he constantly scolded the Chinese Empire for being stupid. However, in the bottom of my heart, I have to admit that the Chinese Empire is indeed a smart choice. This at least leaves Germany with no way to pick up the bargain. If it were Germany, it would definitely do the same.
At the same time, the U.S. government was deliberating on whether it needed to continue to provide support to Soviet Russia. The crushing defeat of the Soviet army on the battlefield showed the United States the weakness of the Soviet army. Their previous investments seem to have gone down the drain. Even if it continues to provide support to Soviet Russia, Soviet Russia will probably lose on the battlefield.
However, the troops of the Chinese Empire stopped at the Volga, which gave the Americans an opportunity. Representatives of the Russian side also said that they would expand the force to eight million by next spring. When the time comes, they will have enough troops to resist the invasion of the Chinese Empire and even launch a counterattack. If Soviet Russia can really arm an army of 8 million men and launch a large-scale counterattack against the Chinese Empire, this will undoubtedly be very beneficial to the United States.
Therefore, President Roosevelt, after consulting with his aides, decided to continue to provide support to Soviet Russia and make it as powerful as possible. (To be continued.) )
