The world is most concerned about Germany's march into the Rhineland. Few people care about the Brazilian Civil War. Speaking of South America, the proportion of coups and civil wars is indeed high. In some countries, a coup once a year is definitely not the case.
Exaggeration, the civil war is fought every day, non-stop all year round.
It’s not that South Americans are aggressive, who doesn’t want to have a peaceful and stable life.
But as long as the United States is here, South American countries will never have real peace. A chaotic South America is best for the United States.
While Roosevelt was concerned about Germany, Mustache was elated about the success of his adventure.
In fact, Mustache was not arrogant from the beginning. If Britain and the United States knew that Germany was so violent during World War II, Britain and the United States would definitely nip the danger in the bud as soon as possible.
Now that Mustache is full-fledged, Mustache is indeed taking a risk when he sends troops into the Rhineland. Even if only one of the Allied troops stationed in the Rhineland jumps out, the German army will withdraw from the Rhineland and will not fight with the Allies.
.
The problem is that no one jumps out, don't listen to the French politicians shouting loudly, but when the Germans boldly marched into the Rhineland, the French troops remained unusually silent and did not show any sign of the German adventure.
This has greatly encouraged Mustache's ambitions. Mustache is constantly testing the bottom line of the Allied Powers. The German army has also been expanding. The German army has now broken through the restrictions of the "Versailles Treaty" and begun to equip heavy equipment such as heavy machine guns and artillery.
, European countries not only did not object, but expressed a certain degree of support for Germany on the grounds that "Germany should have normal armaments."
It's outrageous anyway.
The United States maintained contacts with southern Africa through Germany, which actually did not help much in ending the war.
When the Brazilian Civil War first broke out, Roosevelt Jr. and Roque talked on the phone.
At that time, Rock asked Roosevelt Jr.: Can I order Iron Four to accept U.S. Steel's conditions? Can you suppress U.S. Steel's ambitions?
Roosevelt did not answer this question. The answer is obvious. Roosevelt's influence on American capital is far less than that of Rock.
Therefore, it was not Roosevelt Jr. who had the final say on when the war would end, but American capital, which was eyeing Brazilian iron ore.
The problem is that the United States has been deeply kidnapped by the Brazilian military government, and its involvement in the war is getting deeper and deeper. U.S. steel companies are getting more and more orders. In this case, even if Roosevelt does not want to fight, he will have to fight, regardless of the outcome of the war.
, as long as the war continues, American steel companies will definitely be the winners.
"Germany is now ready, but to make the Germans braver, Germany needs greater support." Hurley has expectations for Germany, but now the situation has become more and more complicated.
The key lies in the rise of southern Africa, which caught Americans off guard.
During World War I, the performance of southern Africa was not too surprising. Although southern Africa performed well at that time, the United States also performed well. At least Americans believed that the performance of the US military under Pershing was no less good than that of southern Africa.
Expedition.
After the end of the world war, Southern Africa and the United States both had the same demands, the need for larger overseas markets, and the need to break the colonial system established by Britain and France, so there was a honeymoon period between Southern Africa and the United States.
Unfortunately, the development of Southern Africa and the United States was very different. With its large population of immigrants and rich natural resources, Southern Africa was not even affected by the economic crisis and performed as strong as ever.
The United States is weakening day by day. Its industry, represented by oil and steel, has lagged far behind southern Africa, especially iron ore. If the iron ore in Pilbara, Australia, has made Americans envious, then Brazil's Iron Quad has become the envy of the United States.
The biggest weight to break through the psychological defense of American steel companies.
Damn southern Africans control the best iron ore in the world, and American steel companies are unwilling to be controlled by others, so there is a civil war in Brazil.
However, after the failure of the U.S.-Pakistan coalition, Hurley was surprised to find that if the Americans could not make a comeback, even if the Second World War broke out as scheduled, just like the last world war, the biggest beneficiary country would still be southern Africa, not
U.S.
The last paragraph is correct. In fact, the outbreak of World War II was always expected by the Americans. Otherwise, the United States would not have provided such great support to Germany. It did not stop supporting Germany even during the Great Depression.
assistance.
"Don't we support the Germans enough? Greedy guys!" Roosevelt was dissatisfied. The Germans were essentially no different from the Japanese.
For a long time, Germany and Japan have been the two major trading partners of the United States. Japan needs industrial raw materials from the United States, while Germany needs U.S. dollars.
Relatively speaking, Japan is more dangerous than Germany because Japan's military expansion in East Asia has affected the interests of the United States in East Asia.
Now the United States is also very embarrassed. If possible, the United States would like to create some conflicts in East Asia and prompt a war to break out between southern Africa and Japan, so that Japan can exert a huge containment effect on southern Africa.
The problem is that the Philippines is between Japan and Changi Naval Base, which makes it very uncomfortable for Americans.
After all, southern Africa is still an ally of the United States in name only.
Therefore, if Japan wants to attack Changi Naval Base, it must cross the Philippines.
Under the current situation, even if the Americans promise not to participate in the conflict between southern Africa and Japan, I am afraid the Japanese will not believe it.
If the Americans go back on their word and suddenly send troops to cut off Japan's logistics and transportation when a war breaks out between Japan and southern Africa, then the Japanese combined fleet will become a turtle in the urn.
"There is news from Berlin that the German government hopes to become an ally with us." Hurley frowned. This is a difficult decision. Maybe the United States, which has been kidnapped by the Brazilian military government, will be kidnapped by Germany again.
.
"No, we cannot give up our principles." Roosevelt still had sense and did not want to get too close to Germany.
U.S. isolationism is, strictly speaking, a form of the Non-Aligned Movement.
Americans like to play both sides. Before the outbreak of the First World War, the United States wandered between the Allied Powers and the Central Powers, doing business happily and making a lot of money. This gave the Americans a taste of the sweetness.
Let’s not talk about the prospects of forming an alliance with Germany now. If Germany, which is ambitious and bent on revenge, declares war on France, should the United States follow Germany and declare war on France?
Failure to declare war is treachery.
If war were declared, what would be the benefit to the United States by defeating France?
Don’t forget that the United States is also a supporter of the “continental balance policy”. A balanced Europe is beneficial to the whole world.
"We need some de facto allies. The Brazilian Civil War is proof that although Southern Africa did not participate in the war, it can mobilize Southern African Union troops to participate in the war unscrupulously. Those African-American soldiers are almost the same as African-Americans in Brazil, so we also need
Some loyal allies." Hurley is now comparing himself with Southern Africa everywhere. Whatever Southern Africa has, the United States must have.
Roosevelt was not in a hurry to express his position. This issue was very serious and needed to be weighed carefully.
When Roosevelt was confused, the wounded U.S. Marines in the Port of Kitchener were even more confused.
After the U.S. Marine Corps withdrew, approximately 2,500 Marines were left in Kitchina Port, including approximately 2,100 wounded.
Tom is an ordinary medic. He received training in field medicine after joining the Marine Corps. Tom became a medic because of his outstanding performance in the training.
Tom has always thought that the United States has the most advanced medical level in the world.
But after learning more about the doctors at Kitchina Harbor, Tom's ideas began to waver.
"The best in the world? No, no, no, don't settle for the world. The world is bigger than you think. Even in Kitchener, the medical technology in southern African cities is at the middle level at most, not even the middle level. South Africa
There are hundreds of hospital beds in any African city, and patients can get better treatment in southern Africa. The conditions here are still too primitive." Dr. George relied on his superb medical skills to win most of the naval battles.
The respect of the team members, including Tom.
In the past few days, the doctor has performed operations on dozens of Marines. Most of the operations were successful. Some wounded soldiers who, in Tom's opinion, could no longer be saved, were brought back to life in the hands of the doctor. Therefore, Tom volunteered to become the doctor's assistant.
Then Tom was embarrassed to discover that he was not even qualified to be a PhD assistant.
The assistants around the doctor are all qualified doctors who have received formal training in southern Africa. Even the nurses have graduated from professional nursing majors. Tom stands with them, sometimes even feeling ashamed.
Against this background, Tom studied hard and won the favor of the doctor by virtue of this.
In his spare time, the doctor would also give Tom some professional advice. In order to help Tom make better progress, the doctor even suggested that Tom go to southern Africa to study.
"How is this possible? I am a member of the U.S. Marine Corps and I don't have the money to go to southern Africa." Poor boy Tom felt sad.
Not all Americans have money. During the economic crisis a few years ago, poor Americans even had to sell their children, which is unimaginable in southern Africa.
Going to southern Africa to study is a very far away thing for Tom.
But it is very easy for a doctor: "If you want to go, I can help you find a way. My teacher works at Nyasaland University Medical School. I can help you write a letter of recommendation and ask the teacher to help you apply."
Searle Foundation Scholarship.”
In an instant, Tom was hit with such great happiness that he stuttered.
