Red Alert: The Republic of China Text Chapter 674 Truman Doomed to Tragedy

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    It was past eleven o'clock in the evening Washington time, just ten minutes before Chen Shao unlocked the code for nuclear weapons.  A tired Truman sat heavily on the sofa in the White House.

    "Damn congressmen, a bunch of damn Jewish vampires, don't they know that China's nuclear bomb will fall on their heads at any time? Can more money buy lives by then?"

    Today, Truman really hopes that the "dictator" Roosevelt will be reborn, so that he doesn't have to argue with those bastards every day.

    After China launched a nuclear attack on Japan, Truman was ready to sign the surrender document. He originally thought that Congress would soon pass it.  But he did not expect that after so long, Congress still did not agree to surrender to China.

    This made Truman, the newly elected president, very angry. The situation in front of him was already very clear.  The Allies had no choice but to defend themselves in Europe, and Japan surrendered.  South American countries are about to invade the United States, and Alaska is in danger.

    He never imagined that Congress would be so stubborn.  Truman's head was buzzing as soon as he remembered the image of nuclear bombs exploding in major American cities.

    "Damn it, why do we join the war, why do we declare war on China, why, why"

    As soon as the waiter came in with a cup of coffee, he heard Truman's graceless cursing.  But he consciously said nothing, put down his coffee and walked out.

    Less than a minute after the attendant left, five-star general Marshall pushed the door in.

    Seeing Truman looking tired, Marshall sighed and said, "Congress still hasn't passed it."

    Truman still respected Marshall very much.  He nodded helplessly, pointed to the sofa opposite and said, "Please sit down."

    Marshall sat down naturally, and Truman shook his head. He was not surprised at all. Although the United States is a democratic country, its own family knows its own affairs.  Congress controls America, and corporations control Congress.

    With the exception of Roosevelt, who served three terms as president, no one could truly ignore Congress.  If Roosevelt were in the current situation, Congress would not be able to influence Roosevelt at all.  But Truman was different.

    After all, it doesn¡¯t matter whether it¡¯s energy or wrist.  He was not on the same level as Roosevelt. In addition, he was new to office, and the war situation made his position extremely unstable.  He was unable to check and balance the U.S. Congress, which had been suppressed by Roosevelt for a long time, so he was naturally helpless.

    As a think tank around Roosevelt.  Marshall certainly knew this very well.  In fact, he also disapproved of the continuation of the war.  When China dropped the atomic bomb on Japan.  He knew that the war had come to an end.

    In the past, the atomic bomb was just an ideal weapon in the United States.  And China has already faced the power of this weapon. Before the United States possesses this weapon, the United States will not be able to compete with China, and the war will naturally have no chance of winning.  Since there is no chance of victory, the best result is to end the war as soon as possible and minimize losses.

    "Three months, at least three more months. What a bunch of whimsical bastards. The United States will be destroyed in their hands." Truman couldn't help roaring, "It will take at least three more months to develop an atomic bomb. Don't  As for whether the United States will still exist within these three months, even Germany will develop an atomic bomb faster than us. At that time, we will talk about using the atomic bomb to gain some bargaining chips, and we will just wait to be destroyed."

    Since the destruction of the Manhattan Project, the United States has still insisted on starting new atomic energy projects, but it has been much slower.  The most optimistic estimate is that it will take at least three months to actually create an atomic bomb.

    Originally, this was good news, but after China used nuclear weapons in Japan and the Hanking Declaration came out, this good news became a nightmare for Truman.  Because the U.S. Congress unanimously believes that China's conditions are too harsh and directly allows the United States to be a slave for hundreds of years, which is something the U.S. Congress absolutely cannot bear.

    And as long as it persists for three months, after the United States also possesses nuclear weapons, it can start a basically confrontational negotiation with China, without the United States having no initiative at all.  To some extent, the conditions will not be as harsh as they are now.

    The starting point of the U.S. Congress is very good, but there is a very important question: Can the United States persist for three months?

    This is a very important question.

    According to the estimates of American experts, the production of atomic bombs is not fast. China first dropped a few atomic bombs, and then only one atomic bomb was dropped for the second time. Moreover, China refused Germany to use atomic bombs against Britain. After a series of waits, it was concluded that China currently has very few atomic bombs.  few.  It is very likely that the atomic bombs dropped on Japan were all of China's inventory.

    And according to the thinking of American experts, if??China has many atomic bombs, and when it launches a nuclear attack on Japan, it should also launch a nuclear attack on the United States.  American experts unanimously believe that it is not because China cannot attack the United States, but because there are insufficient atomic bombs.

    In the three months after the United States' own atomic bomb was released, China could only produce no more than three atomic bombs at most. Even if the United States was hit by a nuclear attack, based on the degree of damage caused by the nuclear bomb to Japan, American experts believe that compared with the harsh  The conditions are completely bearable.

    Many members of the U.S. Congress agreed with the experts one after another, so after several meetings, they basically agreed to continue to insist on it, looking forward to the United States' own atomic bomb, and then starting a dialogue with China that the United States has a relatively high status.

    ¡°Many people in the military did not think so, and Truman also opposed what the experts said.  These days, he has been trying to persuade members of Congress, but with little success.  It has basically not changed the attitude of members of Congress.

    Today, Japan officially signed the surrender document, and all China's attention is focused on the United States.

    China¡¯s attack fleet, a large number of amphibious ships and an unknown number of aircraft carriers, passed through the Panama Canal a few days ago and entered the backyard of the United States.

    All Japanese troops in Australia surrendered to the Chinese army, and the remaining hundreds of thousands of Allied soldiers also surrendered.

    This series of events made Truman suddenly see China¡¯s approaching final offensive.  Put yourself in his shoes, if he were the emperor in the East, he would definitely give the United States a final blow immediately.

    "China's intention not to land on the United States from the sea has been very obvious. The last blow that Truman can think of is nuclear weapons.  Now every second counts.

    Just like today, Truman spent the whole day circling among members of Congress, hoping to do his best to persuade them to immediately agree to China's request.

    Of course, things still didn¡¯t go well, otherwise he wouldn¡¯t be so angry.

    Many times, Truman wanted to take extreme measures, but was extinguished by reason.

    "We don't know whether we will be wiped out by atomic bombs. If we rely solely on conventional warfare, we may not even cover half of our territory in three months." Marshall said. He did not comment on the experts' conclusion that China does not have nuclear bombs for the time being, but  According to his view, the current conventional warfare methods have already caused the United States to face a huge crisis.

    "I just received a telegram from General Eisenhower. China suddenly completed a huge pincer offensive three hours ago. We have nearly one million troops and have become prisoners of the Chinese army. The eastern army has retreated to the Yukon Territory of Canada.  The southern army also retreated to the southern Yukon. As for our northern army and central army, they were all surrounded by China."

    Truman¡¯s face became even more ugly and he said, ¡°Does this mean that the entire Alaska has been occupied by the Chinese army?¡±

    "As much as I hate to admit it, unfortunately, Mr. President, this is true. We can't hold Alaska." Marshall shook his head.

    "In other words, China may move south at any time and threaten other states." Truman could still accept the loss of Alaska, which was not suitable for living, despite its rich resources.  Anyway, it was bought from Tsarist Russia for millions of dollars.  But if other states are also occupied by China, then the United States will be in real crisis.

    "I think Mr. President can rest assured about this. China's attack on Alaska has already faced very severe logistics. I don't think they will risk the dangerous and long supply lines to go south to attack our other states. Especially once winter comes, then they will be in Alaska  The troops will become isolated, and no supplies will be able to pass through the freezing Siberia and Bering Strait.

    I think next, China will start to prepare for defense and hoard supplies.  We will definitely not attack south again, because the risks here are too great. Even if China is not careful, more than two million troops will freeze to death and starve to death.  "

    Hearing what Marshall said, Truman breathed a sigh of relief. Truman still trusted Marshall's vision and judgment.

    As Marshall said, China has no plans to continue going south.  Because this is not the hereafter and there are no effects like global warming.  The Bering Strait can only be passed through for three or four months each year, and during this period, there are many difficulties in passing.  As for other times, it cannot be passed at all.  Moreover, the various difficulties brought about by the severe cold also left the two million troops in the Northeast Theater with no remaining supplies to continue the attack.

    And while we can still pass through the Bering Strait, we should accumulate more cold-resistant materials. Once winter arrives, more than two million troops will have to rely on sea supplies.  Furthermore, the northern route in winter has thick and thick fog, extremely bad sea conditions, and too many unexpected situations.

    So??This is why China does not intend to continue its attack.  After all, there are more than two million troops, not 20,000 or 200,000.  Even the United States in later generations cannot afford to feed, drink, and eat more than two million soldiers on such a route, let alone fight.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????After capturing the entire state of Alaska, the Northeast Theater began to shift to defense, using the remaining more than a month to start hoarding winter supplies and repatriate half of the troops back home.  (To be continued)
