Newfoundland and Cape Breton Island fell into the hands of the German army one after another, which undoubtedly posed a great threat to the United States and Britain. Especially the United Kingdom, they will bear the brunt of the German attack.
After the German army took Cape Breton Island, there was only one kilometer-wide Canso Strait from the Nova Scotia Peninsula. No one would think that the Canso Strait could withstand the German attack. Because, that is almost impossible. The Atlantic Ocean, thousands of kilometers wide, could not stop the German attack, let alone a narrow strait.
Once the German army lands on the Nova Scotia Peninsula, the United States and the United Kingdom may not be able to withstand the German attack.
"Gentlemen, the speed of the German attack has completely exceeded our expectations. In any case, we must not let the Germans land on the Nova Scotia peninsula. Otherwise, if we want to defeat the Germans again, it will be even more difficult." It's very difficult." Prime Minister Churchill said in a stern voice.
After the British army retreated from Cape Breton Island, Prime Minister Churchill called President Roosevelt, hoping that the US military would do everything possible to help them resist the German attack. Otherwise, once Britain is defeated, the United States will never do any good.
President Roosevelt certainly knew this truth. Therefore, he assured Prime Minister Churchill that he would do his best to assist the British army in resisting the German attack in the next battle.
U.S. Army Chief of Staff General Marshall, Chief of Operations Major General Eisenhower, and U.S. Army Air Corps Commander General Henry Arnold went to Toronto to hold a meeting with senior officials of the British Army to discuss how to resist the German attack.
Prime Minister Churchill attended this meeting in person. He knew very well that this military operation was of great importance. Once the German attack cannot be resisted, the consequences will be very serious.
"Your Excellency, the German army, navy and air force are all number one in the world. No one will object to this. Therefore, what we have to face will be a very, very powerful enemy. It will be very difficult to defeat the Germans. difficulties," said Admiral Marshall.
"Yes, Your Excellency General. However, if we cannot defeat the Germans, our country will inevitably perish. So, until now, we have no choice." Prime Minister Churchill said.
Admiral Marshall nodded heavily. The U.S. government also hopes to limit the battlefield to Canada and not spread to the United States. Although very difficult, this will be the goal of the US government and military. If Germany can be defeated in one fell swoop on the Canadian battlefield. Then, the US government's goal may have been achieved. This can be used as an opportunity to strive for a decent peace.
"The Germans have now occupied Cape Breton Island. Although we have deployed heavy troops south of the Canso Strait, once the Germans attack, it will be very difficult for us to stop them." David Magson Said.
"The 1st Army of the U.S. Army has entered the Nova Scotia Peninsula. The 2nd Army has also arrived in New Brunswick. The 3rd Army and the 4th Army are also heading north. However, the weather is getting worse and worse. Too bad. The march of our troops has been greatly affected. I am afraid that we have reached our limit to support 4 armies fighting in Canada. If we want to send more troops to fight in Canada, I am afraid we will have to wait until Not until next spring," Major General Eisenhower said.
Prime Minister Churchill and the generals of the British Army all looked a little unhappy. It's only December, and we're still four months away from spring. Can they hold out for 4 months before the onslaught of the Germans? That's obviously very difficult. Even the weather can affect Germans as well. However, the German army, which has control of the air and sea, will not have any problems with supplies. On the other hand, it is the U.S. military and the British military that will be greatly affected and restricted.
"Your Excellency, although we have begun to expand our army. However, we have lost 300,000 troops in Newfoundland and Cape Breton. The recruits have just entered the barracks, and the training has not yet been completed. Therefore, for the time being We can't count on it. And the Germans are constantly adding troops to Newfoundland. This makes it very difficult for us to resist the German attack." Prime Minister Churchill said.
"Your Excellency, the generals. Judging from the current offensive direction of the German army, after they captured Cape Breton Island, they should launch an attack on the Nova Scotia peninsula. And if we gather our forces in Nova Scotia If we take Koshe Peninsula and New Brunswick, we should be able to gather enough troops in these two places. By then, the possibility of resisting the German attack will naturally be much greater." Major General Eisenhower suggested .
Prime Minister Churchill and a group of British Army generals frowned.
If the main force of the British Army is concentrated on Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, they will inevitably be empty of troops elsewhere.
"If the British Army can gather more than 500,000 elite troops in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. If the US Army can gather 600,000 troops to these two places, we can muster 1.1 million troops." People are in this area. The Germans are going on an expedition across the sea, and the troops they can send to North America in a short period of time are very limited. As long as we can persist until next spring, we can send more troops to reinforce Canada. At that time, we will have enough troops to launch a counterattack. Even defeating the Germans in one fell swoop is not impossible." Major General Eisenhower continued.
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, generals. Now we have no other choice. We can only concentrate on resisting the German attack. The U.S. Army Air Force has lost more than 2,000 combat aircraft. In order to avoid greater losses, so that it is completely unable to compete with the Luftwaffe in the later stage. We can only reduce the size of the fleet invested. Under such circumstances, the troops we invest in the ground battlefield, You have to ask for more," Admiral Marshall said.
Prime Minister Churchill knew that if he wanted the U.S. military to do his best, he would have to persist until next spring.
"Well, we will put as many troops as possible into New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Perhaps, try to hold on until next spring!" Prime Minister Churchill said.
