Section 786 Isolationism
President Roosevelt slowly picked up the report himself. At the beginning, the US General Staff was still very supportive of the actions of the Japanese Southern Army. If it were them, they would have opened up a second battlefield in China. But they didn't understand why the Japanese devils would withdraw their troops from North China. In theory, North China is a very important entry point. After losing this strategic location, it would be more troublesome to connect all the troops. In the eyes of the Americans, the Kwantung Army's combat strength is the strongest among the Japanese Army. No matter which army entered China, they should think about connecting with the Kwantung Army. But the facts proved that the Americans' analysis was wrong. The emergence of the security regiment made the Kwantung Army stand firmly in the Northeast. If you say it more clearly, it would be better to say that it was trapped in the Northeast.
The report pointed out that according to the current development level, if the security forces did not intervene, the Southern Army would have captured Guangdong within two months. But now the security forces are coming, especially when they come up, they show their combat effectiveness. With the strong transportation support of the security forces, the Southern Army will not survive for more than four months, especially the security forces represented by officers like Kong Erlangzi. They have stronger aggression and stronger ability to resist strikes. The Japanese Southern Army is no match for the security forces at all. This is the opinion given by the General Staff Headquarters. President Roosevelt slowly closed the report. If it was handed over to others, he would definitely think it was a joke, but President Roosevelt decided to reward the participants strongly.
"Talking our report to the Japanese through certain channels, we don't know what they do. In addition, although our trade with the Japanese has been blocked, we can still make some transactions with them. The growth rate of the security team is too fast. If we do not control it, it will not benefit us Americans in the future. The Japanese and Chinese must lose most of their interests in the fight, which is in line with the interests of us Americans, not a one-sided strategy. We supported the Japanese in the past because in Asia, we did not have any intervention benefits.
We must make the Japanese strong enough to resist the great powers of European countries. Now that we support the Chinese, we cannot let the Japanese devils dominate in Asia. Now that the security team has risen again, we must start supporting the Japanese. We must be able to get along with each other and maintain our world status in the United States." Another adjutant next to us took the report and hurried out. He must hand the report to the intelligence department as quickly as possible, and then make an unintentional mistake to allow the Japanese spies to get the report. This is what they should do.
Americans are following their isolated and balanced policy, whether in Europe or Asia. They will not participate in the struggles of various continents themselves, but they will support their excess materials to weaker countries on the mainland. After the end of World War I, the Germans were in a weak position throughout the European continent. If the French and British were to continue to make decisions, the Germans would not be able to develop, so the Americans gave loans to the Germans and fed them with them.
Now that the Germans dominate the entire European continent, the Americans feel that their interests have been damaged, so they start to support the Soviets and the British, hoping that both of them can attack the Germans.
"How is our research department doing research on the Sherman tank that was brought back from China?" When it comes to this tank, President Roosevelt was a little depressed. This tank has been approved in his own research institute, but the question is how could there be so many finished products from the Chinese? If you say that someone plagiarized, you obviously have not had a prototype here, but you have already started fighting there, and it seems that the production is already very mature. Otherwise, there would not be so many. You Americans cannot say that they steal in plain words. Everything must be evidence of it.
"Mr. President, our research department has fully understood the various parameters of this tank. We can produce this tank by ourselves in as soon as one month, but various data still require certain modifications. If you want to equip the army, it will take at least half a year later." The United States has strong R&D capabilities. It only takes half a year from getting an enemy tank to sending this tank into the army for service. This is already very fast in peacetime, but the problem is now in wartime, so this speed is not very good, so President Roosevelt was not very satisfied with this reply.
"Let the R&D department speed up the action, and also notify the major factories to start preparing to change their production lines to make certain adjustments to the production of such tanks. Half a year is too long. I will only give them three months. After three months, I hope our US Army will fully replace this tank." Although the men in Congress were still talking about isolationism, President Roosevelt already felt that the current society is not something that he can decide, and the situation on the battlefield is not something that he can decide. Although he can rely on American resources to influence the direction of the battlefield, it is impossible to influence 100%.
President Roosevelt is a prepared person, so before the American army enters the battlefield, President Roosevelt must give the best weapons and equipment he can get to the young men in the United States so that he can avoid a large number of casualties. The peace time in the United States is too long and his ability to withstand casualties is very short. If the Americans are like the Japanese, it is absolutely impossible to throw hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands of them away on the battlefield. It is estimated that the Americans will definitely push themselves off the stage by then.
President Roosevelt looked at the fountain in the distance. At this moment, he really wanted to know what kind of army the security regiment was? Among all the forces around the world, the one he was most unsure about was the army of this security regiment. If he could study them well, he believed that he could relieve his anxiety. But the problem was that after the FBI agents passed, they did not come back.
