The Third Reich: I Became Emperor
Chapter 85
"Your Majesty, will the Duke of Windsor cooperate with us?" Marshal Keitel asked with some concern.
"Don't worry, he will cooperate with us. Compared with a duke in name only, isn't a king with real power better?"August sneered.
"More importantly, the Duke of Windsor's wife is a commoner. As long as we spread the word, I believe the commoners will definitely support him. As for the nobles, they will definitely not stay. We want to completely transform the British Isles."
August remembered the series of transformations that MacArthur had made after occupying Japan, which were very successful, so he decided to follow suit.
"Notify the front line to speed up the offensive and not give the British army time to breathe"
"Yes!" Marshal Keitel said respectfully.
………
In the Atlantic Ocean, transport ships flying the American flag are heading for their destination.
The fleet has about 300 ships, of which more than 200 are transport ships, which are filled with all kinds of military supplies.
Some are armored vehicles, some are tanks, and some are various weapons and ammunition. The rifle boxes are all Springfield rifles. As for the M1 Garand semi-automatic rifles, there are also quite a few, but all of them are produced and supplied to the Pacific battlefield, and there are fewer allocated to the British side.
In addition, there are a large number of M4 medium tanks, which are the latest medium tanks produced by the US military. Although there is a big gap compared with the Leopard tank, its advantage is that its production is large, enough to kill the Leopard tank.
Finally, there are 2,000 semi-finished aircraft, which can take off after landing and assembly, and there are also thousands of pilots following.
The strength of this support has restored the confidence of the British army. Not to mention that they can drive the German army into the sea, at least they will have no problem blocking the German attack.
"The British army is such a bunch of rubbish that they even lost the English Channel. They are such a bunch of idiots that hundreds of warships can be defeated."On the deck, a captain said to the army officer next to him.
"Yes, just like the Suez Canal, if the great American Army had not joined the war, it would have been lost long ago."The army officer next to him also agreed.
In their minds, the British Army and the colonial army were already on the same level. Who made them all useless?
"We can't blame them completely, as the Germans are said to be really powerful."Some people have read a lot of analytical data on the Germans and have made rebuttals.
After all, the Germans' previous record was absolutely amazing. They swept across Belgium and France, forced the Allied forces to jump into the sea at Dunkirk, and later defeated the Russians. If they hadn't been weak, they would have probably taken Moscow directly.
If you really underestimate the Germans, you will definitely suffer a great loss.
"Humph, you are exaggerating. The German army is not that powerful. I have fought against the German army in North Africa. Their tanks are not as advanced as ours. At most, they are similar to our M3 tanks. Now we are equipped with a large number of M4 medium tanks, which can definitely sweep the German army."The lieutenant colonel who spoke before obviously had experienced war and said with disdain.
Hearing this, many people around were silent. The German army in North Africa was indeed defeated and could be wiped out at any time.
"You are right, but the tanks equipped by the German army in North Africa are of poor performance and are not the mainstream tanks of the German army at all. Moreover, their logistics supply cannot keep up. If they have the same logistics supply as us, we will definitely lose."An army major couldn't help but say
"Humph, there are not so many ifs in war, there is only victory and defeat. Now they have lost and we have won."The lieutenant colonel said sarcastically.
The captain on the side hurriedly changed the subject and said:"Do you think the German submarines will come to intercept us?"
As the captain of a transport ship, he naturally worried about the omnipresent German submarines.
"Maybe, but there is no need to worry. There are fifty escorting destroyers this time. If I were a submarine captain, I would definitely run away immediately if I saw so many warships."The lieutenant colonel said in a mocking tone.
""Hahaha, you're right!"
The teasing of the crowd was only a small part of the journey. At this time, on the battleship New Jersey, Admiral Patton was looking at a map with the latest British intelligence marked on it. The battleship
New Jersey, also known as the Iowa-class battleship, is the longest, most powerful, and fastest battleship in the world. It can be said to be the most powerful battleship in the world.
It can also be said that this is America's greatest reliance. Although the role of aircraft carriers is very important now, the huge role of battleships cannot be ignored. At least before jet fighters board the deck of aircraft carriers, battleships still play a big role.
"The situation is not good. The Germans are attacking too fast. The British army won't be able to hold out for long."Looking at the map, Admiral Patton muttered.
"What should we do then?" Chief of Staff Bradley frowned and asked.
"I hope the British army can hold out and at least hold out until we arrive." Admiral Patton said helplessly.
"Send a telegram to the President, requesting another batch of supplies."After thinking for a while, Admiral Patton added:
"Still need supplies?" Lieutenant General Bradley said in surprise.
Hearing this, Admiral Patton smiled bitterly and said,"The next battles will be tough and difficult. Without enough ammunition, it is absolutely impossible to defeat the German army."
Although the US military defeated the German army in North Africa, no one dared to ignore the combat effectiveness of the German army. In order to defeat the German army, Admiral Patton thought of almost every aspect he could think of.
Since his own combat effectiveness was not good, he would start from logistics, carry more ammunition, produce more tanks and planes, and fight to consume the German army.
"Land warfare is different from air warfare and naval warfare. The daily consumption of land warfare is enough for the air force to fight for a week. This batch of supplies looks a lot, but according to the intelligence sent by the British Army, this batch of weapons and equipment will only last for fifteen days at most."Admiral Patton explained.
Hearing this, Lieutenant General Bradley nodded. Fighting a war is a battle of logistics. If the logistics can't keep up, don't expect to win.
"Although it can only last for fifteen days, it is enough to stop the German offensive. During these fifteen days, we must desperately transport supplies. Now the Russians on the Eastern Front have begun to counterattack. What the Germans lack is time."
"The longer the time drags on, the better for us, but the worse for the German army.
Admiral Patton's words impressed everyone in the command center. He not only considered the current situation, but also the next logistical supply. He is indeed a famous general. There is a reason why he is favored by the president.
While Patton and others were discussing, the periscope of a submarine slowly stretched out of the sea. The captain inside saw the huge fleet and was shocked and speechless.
"Oh my God, so many warships? There must be about 300 or 400 of them, right?"
After hearing the captain's words, the submarine officers and soldiers around were stunned. They had been wandering on this route for three days without encountering a single merchant ship. Just when they were about to return, they encountered such a big fish.
"Captain, what should we do now? How about a job?" said an officer with bloodthirsty eyes.
"Fuck you, there are fifty frigates alone, how can we do it? Believe it or not, as soon as we surface, countless depth charges will be thrown at us."The captain said unhappily
"What should we do? Should we just let them go?" the staff officer said aggrievedly.
"Send electricity to the surrounding submarines and tell them that they have found a big fish. This time they are going to make a big profit." The captain said viciously with bloodshot eyes.
