Eight hundred and seventy-seventh section no progress
The Americans failed to attack, and General MacArthur was also furious. He had never encountered such a thing. He had already deployed the strongest weapons. With the blessing of the plane and Pershing tanks, he still had no way to break through the Chinese defense line. Now he was really helpless. According to the opinions of the officers below, he should have continued to attack. They thought the Chinese could not hold on anymore. However, in the photos taken by the reconnaissance plane, about 3,000 Chinese reinforcements had been added to the front positions, so General MacArthur ordered the stop of the attack. Continuing the attack at this time has no effect. You must find some new ways. If you continue to attack, you can only increase casualties. Look at the corpses outside, and that number is absolutely a large number.
"Report to General, this is a call from Washington..." Just when General MacArthur was at a loss, the combat staff received a call. Now Washington knew about this. General MacArthur stood up suspiciously and looked at the people around him. These people were considered their old subordinates, but some of them had contact with Washington. They must have been exposed to the incident just now. If these people had not informed him, how could Washington know the news here? And he knew so promptly, and everyone was very innocent. You can't be guilty at this time. If MacArthur saw it, you will be sent a Thomson submachine gun tomorrow, and then you will go to the battlefield to make achievements. Don't hide in this relatively safe command.
"God General, I heard that you have ordered the cessation of the front line's attack. What's going on? Do you know what we have invested this time? We intercepted a batch of arms to Africa, all of which were handed over to your army, and dispatched 1/3 of the air force. This is already a very large scale. In South America, the number of enemies is only more than 100,000, but we have taken out a reserve of 500,000 troops. If you cannot regain the Holy Land and cannot eliminate the Chinese from the Pacific coast, then Congress will hold you accountable. Do you know what the situation is now? You must resume the attack immediately. No matter how big our casualties are, the casualties of the Chinese will be even greater. This city cannot be kept in charge of the Chinese." The voice of Vice President Truman appeared in the microphone.
But this call should not be Truman's meaning. General MacArthur understood very well that this call should be President Roosevelt's meaning, but President Roosevelt paid attention to the artistry of rule, so he would not call the military and political chief on the front line in person. If the authority fails, President Roosevelt will definitely bear part of the responsibility, but the call was made by the Vice President, and then there will be a ruling intention. Vice President Truman knew everything about this matter, but President Roosevelt was staring at him. Did he say he had no time? If this is the case, he would probably not even have the qualification to take the blame. Being able to take the blame for Your Excellency the President would be considered a kind of happiness, and he might be able to make it up in the future.
"Your Excellency Vice President, there are also difficulties here. If you are in my tent, you can see a large corpse bag when you walk out. From the attack to now, we have lost nearly 20,000 soldiers. If we continue to attack, the losses today will continue to increase. We have sent all the Pershing tanks, but in the end we only came back less than half. The Chinese have powerful anti-tank artillery on their positions. Although their heavy tanks have not been transported, these anti-tank artillery are as powerful as the Chinese. In addition to the fierce firepower of the Chinese, our strongest attack has been launched. We must rest the troops. If we continue to attack, we may not have any other gains besides increasing the losses. Please understand our difficulties." General MacArthur heard who made the phone call there.
If he were an ordinary official of the Ministry of National Defense, I'm afraid General MacArthur would not have the time to explain to him that he would not be able to accept the orders of the foreign king. The Chinese have understood the truth for thousands of years. Don't you know it now? But the person there is the vice president and has given him a lot of help. The two of them have a good personal relationship. When they went back to the meeting last time, General MacArthur had changed his view. The upper class of the United States is now united. Although there are some minor frictions, everyone basically knows that if there is still trouble at this time, it is purely that there is something wrong with our own brains. The enemies we face cannot let us win easily, so we must cheer up.
"God General, we understand the losses suffered by the front line very well. Although we are far away in Washington, we read the marketing report of the Ministry of Defense every day. Now you must understand that if we stop the attack, then the efforts we have made before will be in vain. Now China has already established a firm foothold on the Pacific coast. This is our last chance. If they are not cleared out this time, then they will occupy more places next time. According to the information we have obtained, China is ready to start a new offensive in South America. If their reinforcements are increasing, we will be even less able to clear them out at that time. So you must concentrate all your troops. Even if they are all exhausted, you must get them out." In the eyes of the upper class in Washington, South America must be liberated at this time.
If South America is still in the hands of the Chinese, then they will not be able to concentrate on attacking Europe with all their might. The war on Europe has slowly started to ignite. China has been doing so recently. In fact, they understand very well that since the Battle of Kaliningrad, China has begun to take action in Europe. In addition, General Rommel created the German mercenary and said that the Chinese army had no action. They were purely a group of fools. Now the Chinese army is moving more and more, and they don’t know when it will be possible to launch a general attack. If South America cooperates at that time, it will make the US army in a mess. They have no way to support the war in three places. Including Southeast Asia, there are only four.
