Transmigrated as the Crown Prince

Chapter 966 America Strategy (2)

California.

A group of people gathered in a villa in Los Angeles, discussing some shady things.

Not long ago, this group of "people with lofty ideals" formed a "German Alliance". As mentioned earlier, although Germans are the largest ethnic group in the United States, this is only reflected in their bloodline and surname. In order to integrate into the United States, German Americans even anglicized their names, abandoned their traditions and culture, deliberately alienated themselves from their mother country, and integrated into the mainstream Anglo-Saxon culture of the United States. Most Germans have long recognized the United States as their homeland. The consciousness of blood is only found in European monarchies. Americans are more concerned about legal status.

However, Germany is now so powerful that it has pushed the United States to the ground and is frantically rubbing against it. Many people have begun to pick up their German identity again.

Of course, these are just benefits. As long as there are enough benefits, even black people will be regarded as white people (in the United States at the beginning of the 20th century (earlier or later), when a black person achieved great achievements or became a rich man , the government and society will think that his excellence and hard work have enabled him to be promoted to the white class, and he refers to black as white).

An old man with white hair looked at everyone present and spoke slowly. "Everyone, do you think our 'Pacific Line of Defense' can stop the Germans?" Although the old man has white hair, his eyes are bright, and his face is full and he looks energetic.

No one knows whether the Germans will choose the Atlantic or Pacific direction for their landing point, but California is located on the Pacific coast, so they are naturally more worried about this side than the Atlantic side.

A middle-aged man in military uniform shook his head slowly. "Our 'Pacific Line of Defense' is likely to be another 'Maginot Line of Defense.'" The French spent ten years and 5 billion francs building the Maginot Line of Defense, but the Germans spared it. And their "Pacific Defense Line" has been under construction for less than a year, so how can it be perfected. The entire defense line is full of loopholes, and the Germans may be able to land anywhere they want.

Hearing what this soldier said, the other people's faces became even more ugly.

"Even if the defense line can stop the Germans, we can't intercept the German bombers. If they keep bombing, they will blow the entire United States into rubble." Although it sounds exaggerated, as long as the Germans are patient, they can bomb for several years. , it’s not that it can’t be done.

"Those guys are unwilling to accept the German conditions and will lead the United States to hell. I don't want to be buried with them!" They are also well-informed and know that the Germans have put forward new conditions not long ago, but those guys in Washington are still Didn't agree.

Of course, those gathered here are people who don’t want to be buried with him.

Listening to everyone's discussion, the old man nodded. "Looks like we have to contact the Germans."

Everyone fell silent instantly, their eyes focused on the old man, and one of the middle-aged men asked. "But what good do we do?"

The old man smiled slightly. "I heard that the Germans allocated 500,000 square kilometers to Chuikov in the Far East and 300,000 square kilometers to Siberia. In addition, Molotov, Timoshenko, Budyonny and others also received similar shares. The Germans must also want to divide the United States into more than a dozen pieces. Isn’t it too much for us to ask the Germans for the entire state of California?"

It was this middle-aged man who spoke again. "The Germans are not fools, will they agree?"

California's area is 410,000 square kilometers, which doesn't seem very big, a little smaller than the territory Chuikov got. But some places cannot measure their value by area at all, and California is a good example.

God favors the United States, and God favors California even more, giving it an endless source of wealth-Mediterranean climate! It is no exaggeration to say that you cannot even find another Mediterranean climate region in the world that is as large as California and has such rich environmental diversity.

Almost every climate type in the world has certain flaws - too hot in summer, too cold in winter, too many rainy days, raging typhoons, etc. However, the Mediterranean climate zone is not hot in summer, not cold in winter, has little rain all year round, and has four seasons. There is plenty of sunshine, and there is a famous American country ballad called "It Never Rains in Southern California."

California also has a Central Valley, where the fertile land and climatic conditions provide an excellent environment for agricultural development in California. The Mediterranean climate brings year-round sunshine and suitable temperatures, as well as the resulting fertile soil conditions, which are inexhaustible wealth for agriculture and animal husbandry, and more importantly, among the surrounding mountains , which happens to enclose such a large plain area with a rich water system, is a natural cradle for diversified agriculture.

As a production area of ​​non-wheat, corn and other core crops, California's agricultural output value has long ranked first in the United States, and its export volume is also far ahead.

In the United States, 96% of cauliflower, 97% of kiwi, 99% of walnuts, 95% of garlic, 95% of celery, 86% of carrots, 71% of spinach; 23% of cheese, 31% of cream, 50 % of skim milk powder, 81% of wine... As for California’s agricultural output data, no one state, or even any number of states combined, can surpass the glory of California’s agriculture. The yield per acre of California is even more astonishing. The yield of lemons per acre is 50% higher than that of neighboring states. The yield per acre of spinach is 60% higher than the national average. There are so many delicious fruits and vegetables in California. , not only feeds a country, but is also the most powerful force in the country's agricultural exports.

And California has another key geographic advantage—a stretch of coastline facing the Pacific Ocean. This means that this is also an extremely important gateway for North America to the Asia-Pacific region, and this is even more critical. Both Southern California and Northern California are crucial nodes in the world's transportation and logistics system. The Los Angeles-Long Beach port group in Southern California is the most important and busiest port in the entire Western Hemisphere. Los Angeles and San Francisco are both the most important air transport nodes on the West Coast of the United States. The Pacific Gateway also means that it is also the outpost of the US defense, and its national defense status is also extremely prominent. Therefore, the US Navy and Air Force use California as a major hub in the Pacific region. Therefore, California’s status as the transportation and logistics center of the Pacific region of the United States is completely irreplaceable.

It can be said that California is a real treasure, a strategic location; will the Germans give up easily?
