Age of Rebirth

Canadian Prime Minister McKenzie, after walking into Roosevelt's recuperating estate, felt the worried expressions on the faces of the Americans who came and went in the estate, and the already heavy and breathless mood became more and more depressed and dull.

I came to Duluth to ask Roosevelt for advice. After the damn Chinese troops landed in the northwestern part of Canada, they went all the way. In just over two weeks, they captured nearly half of Canada's rivers and mountains. If this continues, Canada is not far from subjugation.

Now Mackenzie hates Tang Qiuli very much, even more than Hitler. No matter how you say it, the German army has not launched an attack on Canada. This is because he has the courage and ability to concentrate more than 80.00% of the Canadian army. In the area along the US-Canada border, I have the confidence to fight side by side with the US military, but the attack launched by the Chinese is tantamount to stabbing a knife in the back.

The purpose of Mackenzie meeting with Roosevelt was to inform the Americans that he must deploy more than 50.00% of his troops from the US-Canada border area, in Ontario in the south of Hudson Bay and in Manitoba in the southwest. Establish two lines of defense to stop the fierce attack of the independent division troops, otherwise, in another two weeks, those Chinese soldiers should hit Ottawa.

McKenzie knew that it would be difficult to draw so many Canadian troops from the battlefield when the German army was pressing down on the border. Perhaps, compared with the danger of national subjugation facing Canada, this is a dilemma.

The Americans are doomed, and Canada cannot be alone. Canada is occupied by the Chinese army, and the outcome of the United States is not much better. Mackenzie hopes that the wise Roosevelt can come up with a plan that can achieve both, but Roosevelt fell ill. His trip to Duluth cast a shadow.

Mackenzie sat quietly on the sofa in the reception room.With a lot of preoccupations, Jonathan, the chief of staff to the president, walked in and said with a sad expression: "Mr. Prime Minister, President Roosevelt invites you to go to his ward!"

Mackenzie walked into the ward with heavy steps.Looking at Roosevelt lying on the hospital bed, if his chest was not rising and falling weakly with his breathing, he would have almost thought that he was lying on the hospital bed.It is a dead person, "This is a person whose fire of life will be extinguished at any time!" Mackenzie sighed inwardly.

Jonathan leaned on Roosevelt's ear and whispered a few words. Roosevelt opened his eyes. After seeing Mackenzie, his eyes suddenly lit up, then dimmed, and said in a weak voice: "Mr. Prime Minister, welcome to Duluth. It's a pity Unfortunately, I can only lie on the hospital bed to greet you!"

The war is raging in Canada, the city is lost, and the military situation is extremely urgent. Mackenzie also ignored the politeness and Roosevelt's current physical condition, and said: "Mr. President, I rushed here from Ottawa because of the Chinese Tang Qiuli's troops , are attacking Canada crazily..."

McKenzie's words are not finished yet.Roosevelt waved his hands with difficulty, his face was so pale that there was no trace of blood, showing a bitter expression, and said in a weak voice: "Mr. Prime Minister, there is no need to say. My chief of staff, Jeffrey, has already informed me of the whole situation. Already!"

"Then Mr. President, is there any countermeasure?" Mackenzie asked eagerly.

"What I'm most worried about is that after Japan's subjugation, Tang Qiuli will be free. Join the North American battlefield and join hands with Hitler!" Roosevelt seemed not to notice Mackenzie's words, and said to himself, "Now, the worrying thing is finally It happened, the United States can’t show enough benefits to impress this greedy and cunning Chinese, and stand on the side of the United States, yes, can’t show it...”

Mackenzie was silent. He could see that Roosevelt was in a trance.

It took a long time for Roosevelt to wake up. He didn't seem to know what he said just now, and he seemed to know the purpose of Mackenzie's visit. He said in an extremely tired voice: "Mr. Prime Minister, I know the purpose of your visit, but I am very sorry, I can do nothing , fight, we can only fight to the end, with the Germans and the Chinese..."

The following words were vague, and Mackenzie couldn't hear them clearly. At this moment, Roosevelt had closed his eyes and fell into a trance. Mackenzie stood beside the hospital bed, watching silently. He was sitting in a wheelchair, still awe-inspiring and admirable, now in this state, he bowed deeply, and left silently with tears in his eyes.

A few hours after MacKenzie left Duluth, Roosevelt, the No.30 second president of the United States, died in an ordinary manor on the outskirts of the wartime capital Duluth in February [-]. The time of death in history was more than a year earlier.

And now the United States is in an extremely dangerous situation compared to the United States at the end of World War II in history. In history, Roosevelt passed away with the halo of being one of the world's three giants who was about to end World War II. Now, Facing the fate of the imminent subjugation of the United States, he was unable to save, unable to return to heaven, and passed away with eternal regret and unwillingness to do anything.

When Roosevelt died quietly, it was discovered by White House Chief of Staff Jonathan. When he saw it, Roosevelt had stopped breathing and did not leave any last words or suicide notes.

Roosevelt's sudden death made the already precarious United States even more precarious. According to the U.S. Constitution, Truman, who was the Vice President of the United States at the time, was hit by a lucky golden egg and took over the post of President of the United States, becoming No.30 in American history. President, but the current United States is no longer the United States in history, which can command the old European United States with the prestige of the victorious countries in World War II.

In history, the US vice president, who was listed as one of the four evils by the Chinese at that time, along with fleas, rats and cockroaches, was originally an inconspicuous role. According to the political tradition of the United States, the vice president He has always been a shadow character. If Roosevelt hadn't passed away suddenly, maybe he would never be on the throne of the President of the United States in his lifetime.

Truman couldn't believe his eyes and ears when he saw the American military and political officials coming to congratulate him in person. The sudden ecstasy, the fear and discomfort of his sudden elevation made him look clumsy.

After adapting to the role and calming down the ecstasy, Truman, who calmed down, was full of bitterness, and what he took over by himself was definitely a mess. The current America is like a broken ship that is leaking everywhere and tottering in a storm, and it may capsize at any time .

Millions of German soldiers are launching a fierce attack on the eastern defense line of the United States, and more than one million Chinese soldiers, under the command of Tang Qiuli, are also attacking Canada. , A fatal stab.

In this regard, Truman asked himself that he was no better than his predecessor Roosevelt. Facing the two-sided attack of the Chinese and German troops, he was also helpless. He wisely handed over the command of the US military to the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff and the staff of the US Supreme Command during the war. Chief General Jeffrey, on military issues, he has self-knowledge, probably no more than a regimental commander of the US Army.

Truman did not think about changing the strategy formulated by Roosevelt. He also had no more clever means than Roosevelt to make the broken ship of the United States sail out of the dangerous shoals with high winds and waves. The United States changed its president, but everything remained the same. fate.

The only most correct and wise thing Truman did was to keep the news of Roosevelt's death secret, and only the senior military and political officials in the United States knew about it. , Once the news of Roosevelt's death spread, the Americans would immediately collapse. He asked himself, he still couldn't bear the heavy responsibility of the American spiritual pillar.

Canadian Prime Minister McKenzie heard the sad news of Roosevelt's death within a few days after returning to China. He had no time to go to Duluth to attend Roosevelt's funeral. Canada is now on the verge of extinction. As the prime minister of the Canadian government, a national emergency mobilization order was issued, and the whole of Canada entered a state of war.

After Mackenzie weighed the pros and cons, he did not transfer the main force of the Canadian army from the Eastern Front of the United States back to the mainland. In fact, it was impossible to mobilize it at all. On the battlefield, deploying troops under such circumstances is almost like courting death.

The millions of troops of the independent division joined the North American battlefield, and Marshal Rommel, the commander of the German South American Army Group, finally had the capital to organize several directions and focus on attacking. Regardless of Germany's gathering of more than 600 million people on the North American battlefield Huge troop strength, but distributed in the vast Northeastern and Eastern battlefields of the United States, the troop strength is still not enough.

Now, the German army is exclusively responsible for attacking the eastern defense line of the United States, so it can concentrate superior forces and firepower, and at certain points, achieve the ability to break through. plan,

The gist of the plan is to divide the German troops into three parts, with Jefferson City, Nashville, and Atlanta as the key breakthrough directions. In the three breakthrough directions, nearly [-] tanks, tens of thousands of large-caliber artillery, and more than [-] Combat aircraft, with a force of more than [-] million people, Rommel was tired of the stalemate in the North American battlefield, and he tried his best to complete his efforts in one battle.

After Rommel's combat plan was reported to the Joint Staff, the German Chief of Staff, Marshal Strong, the Chief of the German General Staff, highly appreciated it.

The chief of staff of the Chinese side, the chief of staff of the independent division, Zhao Yuhe, the lieutenant general, was thoughtful. With his vision, he could tell at a glance that the Germans were still fighting with superior forces and powerful ground-to-air firepower. And the battle of the assault capability of the armored cluster.
