    After the outbreak of the war, German Chancellor Schroeder's political stance changed from moderate to tough. Especially two years later, Schroeder and his ruling coalition began to show clear hopes of rebuilding the Iron Cross.  It is not incomprehensible that its political ideals and positions have changed. It is obvious that in a world war, any country that remains neutral has no right to gain any benefits in the post-war division of interests, and Germany itself is a member of NATO. Abandoning NATO is tantamount to  Self-destruction, so the only route Germany can choose is to follow the United States in this world war and attempt to gain greater benefits and international influence after the war.

    To achieve this, Germany must show sufficient strength in the war. It may not be realistic to catch up with the United States, but it can still be achieved by playing a decisive role.  Germany has announced its ambitious military expansion plan and is preparing to rebuild the Iron Cross Legion. Even if it does not recruit more than five million soldiers like during Nazi Germany, more than one million excellent and well-trained German soldiers can still be counted on. Even if  The U.S. military also hopes that the Bundeswehr, which has good equipment and military literacy, can assist the United States in winning more battlefields.

    "It's just that Germany's Iron Cross Legion expansion plan has not yet been fully launched. When the recruitment and training of new recruits were still in progress, it was hit by the Tortoiseshell Project initiated by the Chinese.  The bombing of the Munich industrial area launched by fire-chasing bombers was only the beginning of the bombing.  The Chinese Air Force in Europe launched larger-scale air strikes, ruthlessly attacking military facilities, industrial facilities and even water and electricity and other civilian facilities throughout Germany.

    Although Germany has also built a relatively complete air defense network, it is still weak and weak in the face of such an intense attack by the Chinese Air Force in Europe.  China dispatched J-20 Veyron stealth fighters and H-10 fire-chasing stealth bombers carrying weapons to carry out point-and-point strikes, knocking out the German air defense radar and air defense missile positions. The German command and communication system also suffered serious damage and damage.  Then there will be a large number of Chinese fighter planes and bombers indiscriminately bombing Germany.

    Although the Germans took off a lot of Tornados and B6s (which the U.S. military handed over to the Germans) to intercept, they had little effect in the face of the larger Chinese Air Force.  The US military stationed in Germany also participated in the counterattack, but the US military stationed in Germany was the first to be attacked. With absolutely no other options, NATO European Command had to withdraw the US troops stationed in Germany and transfer them to Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium and France.

    Days of indiscriminate bombing have nearly paralyzed Germany's industrial manufacturing capabilities. At the beginning of the war, Germany had no idea that the Chinese army had grown to such an extent that Germany could be transformed into this state in the blink of an eye.  The NATO command continues to dispatch fighter planes from the United States, Britain, France and other countries to Germany to support the German army. However, the strength of China's European Air Force is too strong and directly overwhelms NATO's deployment in Europe.

    When the country was in flames of blood, German Chancellor Schroeder called U.S. President George W. Bush: "If reinforcements cannot save Germany, then what Germany can assist its allies will no longer be tanks and aircraft, but will be a piece of rubble.  "

    After Germany was hit, the Chinese Air Force in Europe began to carry out air strikes to varying degrees in the surrounding Poland, Hungary, Italy, France, etc. At this time, the Chinese strategic intention was quite obvious, which was to destroy the industrial production capacity of European countries.  To limit the war potential of European NATO countries.

    Bush could only give instructions: "A Europe that cannot produce guns, tanks and aircraft is no different from us finding a group of indigenous African countries. We cannot let the Chinese realize their attempts so easily. Europe must be saved."  "

    As a result, the mighty "European Rescue Plan" was put on the agenda. This plan was proposed by the U.S. Department of Defense and was mainly divided into two parts. One was to deploy domestic American fighter jets to join the battle to protect European skies;  It is to unify the combat forces of the European armies and dispatch more US ground troops. The European Allied Forces, led by the United States, will launch an offensive from land to defeat Czechoslovakia, Romania, Bulgaria and Yugoslavia, thereby completely seizing the control of the Chinese Air Force in Europe.  stronghold to realize the plan to save Europe.

    A major European air war that was no less than the British Air War during World War II began. Even though it had many technical disadvantages, as the United States and Europe continued to increase their efforts, the Chinese's "Operation Tortoiseshell" began to become more difficult.  The bombing of European industrial capabilities basically encountered no decent opponents at the beginning. By the end of the operation, hundreds of fighter jets from both sides were fighting each other, and Chinese bombers were constantly shot down by European and American fighter jets that resisted frantically.

    There is no doubt that Operation Tortoiseshell is also very effective.  Although the comprehensive bombing of Germany encouraged Germans to actively join the army to protect their country in terms of personnel, the armaments factories were constantly destroyed, making it impossible for the German Ministry of Defense to even equip newly recruited soldiers with all their weapons.

    In order to solve this problem, Germany even considered building a reinforced underground arsenal to manufacture weapons for the troops.??But just light weapons are definitely not enough. Germany is even more lacking in the equipment such as armed helicopters, main battle tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, self-propelled artillery and mechas required for land warfare. Even if Germany gives the soldiers a shot at this time,  They have guns, but no main battle tanks or infantry fighting vehicles. They are like a flock of lambs on the battlefield, and will be driven and eliminated by the Chinese army armed to the teeth.

    The German troops organized before the war have basically been sent to the battlefield in Czechoslovakia, and the Czechoslovaks also showed particularly tenacious resistance.  Although the German army did not suffer any defeat, the stalemate on the battlefield was bad news for NATO, because during the stalemate, the Chinese Air Force continued to destroy the military potential and industrial capabilities of European countries.

    The troubles caused by the war are not limited to these. The oil in the Middle East has been completely controlled by the Chinese. The main energy producing areas of NATO have become oil from the Gulf of Mexico, Canada and the North Sea. Obviously, these oil and gas resources cannot meet the demand, especially  Europe is facing such a fierce war, and hundreds of millions of people still need to use energy. After Germany fought a month-long war in Czechoslovakia, its fuel has already encountered huge difficulties like World War II.

    The Chinese bombed Germany's strategic oil reserves, causing Germany's oil reserves to plummet.  North Sea oil production is not that sufficient. Even if all of it is supplied to Germany, it will still be insufficient.  There has been a situation on the battlefield where the German armored brigades are making slow progress and cannot keep up with tactical requirements due to lack of fuel. The German residents in the rear have begun to have a limited supply of fuel, causing the German residents to complain.

    The situation in the United States is definitely not much better than that in Germany. The United States has a larger military force that requires fuel.  Moreover, the US military has military deployments all over the world, and its requirements for fuel transportation are not small.  For the time being, fuel reserves in the United States are not a problem, but in recent days, oil tankers transported by the United States to Japan have been attacked by Chinese submarines many times.  The important reason why the United States has delayed its bombing plan on China's mainland is that it is difficult for the United States to ensure that it will have enough fuel to fight after the war breaks out.  From this point of view, Japan has also dragged down the United States, because as an economic power and a country without energy, Japan consumes huge amounts of fuel.

    The cutoff of the Indian Ocean and South China Sea routes has forced Japan¡¯s main trade to cross the Pacific Ocean and import sufficient resources from the United States. Moreover, these shipping routes are also threatened by China¡¯s submarine force.  The U.S. Seventh Fleet has also been greatly affected by this, and the transportation of supplies and weapons has become a problem.

    The Atlantic routes between Europe and the Americas are still basically open. Although China also has submarine activities here, they are not as rampant in the Western Pacific.  However, the economic impact of the war on many European countries was huge. European countries are highly dependent on trade. In particular, the largest trading partner of many countries is China. After the hostility, they suddenly lost these trades, which made them very sad. Thousands of them  Thousands of people are unemployed, and Westerners don't have any savings habits, so they simply can't survive.

    In response to this situation, NATO has developed a unified economic plan that goes beyond the military, including internal tax exemptions, providing convenient conditions, and even material rationing. It hopes to use more internal economic and trade to make up for the economic losses of these countries, thereby supporting NATO to continue  The Americans also have bad intentions to continue the war. They hope that this internal economic plan can continue, because just like China, the largest among the SCO economies, has the most profits, the United States will also benefit from this  internal economy.

    Of course, in order for the war to continue, the Americans need to further open up routes and obtain resources, especially oil resources.  We must quit our dependence on Middle East oil, because Americans themselves cannot see the possibility of returning to the Middle East in the short term.  However, there are still other places in the world that produce oil, such as South America and the Gulf of Guinea.

    Chavez, the anti-American fighter, is very close to China. It can be said that Nigeria has China's overseas bases, which also has an excuse.  If the oil in Venezuela and Nigeria can be controlled, for NATO, it can greatly alleviate the oil shortage caused by the loss of Middle East oil.

    However, there are also many people who object to such hasty opening of new battlefields. Now the US military's battle is already difficult to see from the beginning to the end. If the war starts from the west coast of Africa and South America, the Americans may really be able to defeat themselves without being defeated by the Chinese.  Knocked down.
