Starting in early December, major cities, transportation hubs, mines, and power stations in Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, and Indiana began to be harassed by federal bombers.
The entire central and eastern states of the United States suffer from insufficient power supply, insufficient water supply, traffic jams, and people fleeing for their lives, which has seriously reduced the manufacturing capabilities that the United States is proud of.
Since 1942, U.S. bomber production has dropped from 30 per day to 5 per day, fighter production has dropped from 44 per day to 17 per day, and tank production has dropped from 3,000 per month to 1,000 per month. Although the US government is actively
New factories will be built on the east coast to replace the bombed production lines, and manufacturing capacity may increase, but most of the materials such as steel, fuel, ore, and food will have to rely on pre-war reserves.
At present, all large-scale industrial and mining enterprises in the central and eastern regions have basically stopped production. Even if you are willing to produce, they are not willing to transport you. Many roads have been blown up, and it is very dangerous to drive on the roads during the day. Maybe there will be a federal reconnaissance plane.
Emerging from the clouds, the truck chasing you is just a shuttle.
As the federal air force began large-scale strategic bombing of the industrial areas in the central and eastern United States, the war situation suddenly shifted from tilting towards the United States to tilting towards the South China Sea Federation. Even the US government and military are not optimistic about the current situation.
, because if this continues, before the U.S. military exhausts all the South China Sea Federation’s troops on the front line, the U.S. military’s own logistical supplies will have problems.
Faced with this dilemma, U.S. President Roosevelt issued another very surprising order. He signed and authorized the U.S. Western Theater Command to allow the U.S. military to launch poison gas at federal troops on the front line. Roosevelt's decision was opposed by many members of Congress.
, many Democratic congressmen do not agree with using such extreme measures to retaliate against the federal air force's bombing.
This is not because these American congressmen are kind-hearted, but because they are worried that the federal air force will also use poison gas to bomb American cities. In this way, the losses of the United States will definitely be greater than that of the federation. Because this is a war on American soil, the American people will not
Hiding everywhere, God knows how far the federal bombers can fly.
However, there were still a majority of people who were as eager to win the war as Roosevelt and were blinded by anger, and President Roosevelt's proposal was finally approved by Congress.
It can be approved, but it is still very troublesome to implement. Things like poison gas are very corrosive. If there is no advance preparation to use this kind of thing in the short term, that country will not store a large amount of this kind of thing in its arsenal.
It’s a very difficult thing to preserve. And its luck
Losing is also a big problem. Once it is attacked by the Federal Air Force, the convoy transporting these guns is likely to cause large-scale pollution to the local area, so these guns must be transported at night, so that the US military on the front line must gather a sufficient number.
The poison gas will take at least 2 months.
Just as the U.S. government was planning how to retaliate against the federal army and storming the Pocatello area, a statement severely hit the confidence of the U.S. government and people. On February 4, 1942, the states of California and Washington
The government has publicly announced that it will hold a referendum within the state to allow residents of the state to choose whether to break away from the U.S. government and become independent.[
This kind of action was almost equivalent to rebellion when the United States was still under foreign invasion. However, in the U.S. Constitution, the choice of these states has no place. The Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution clearly states: The Constitution did not grant the United States, nor did it
The powers prohibited to the States shall be reserved to each State, or to the people.
According to the spirit of this interpretation of the Constitution, the states do not authorize the government of the United States to suppress the rights of states that secede from the United States, and the Constitution does not prohibit states from exercising this right. Therefore, whether to secede from the government of the United States should be decided by the people of each state.
.
And it was based on this constitution that the southern states of the United States withdrew from the U.S. federal government and established the Confederate States of America. However, this action led to the Civil War. Although this war prevented the division of the United States, the North did not use the South to
It is illegal for states to secede from the Union.
In fact, Americans are a very special group. They are not like a country in the traditional sense, but more like a business chamber of commerce. Since there are too many ethnic groups, they cannot achieve unity in the tradition, so they only pursue unity of interests.
, so their concept of country is different from other people in the world. In their
From their perspective, the national government is something like a board of directors that is elected and supported by everyone. It must provide satisfactory services to the people. If its work cannot satisfy the shareholders, the shareholders can vote to change a group of people to continue management.
You can also choose to sell the company's stocks and not end up with them.
Residents of the western coastal states of the United States are currently facing such a choice. They abandoned their homes and businesses at the beginning of the war and ran to the central part of the country. They plan to rely on the U.S. government to drive away these invaders so that they can return to their homes.
But they were disappointed. The central part of the country soon became unsafe, so some people gave up hope in the government and returned to their homes in the west, living under the noses of the invaders. Others continued to believe in the government and fled eastward.
.
But reality hit them again. The east side is still unsafe, and for these people from other places, they are unfamiliar with the place here. The government cannot accept so many people who have fled, so most of them are here.
They were not happy in a foreign land, so some of them were disappointed with the government and returned to their hometown along the original road.
These people who returned to the western coastal areas had gone back and forth at least once. Not to mention their property, it would have been nice to have a sheltered place to live. However, they saw that those who did not escape or had no conditions to escape now are now
If you become rich by doing business with or providing services to intruders, you will feel even more unbalanced.
Most of them have paid no less in taxes, but when they were unlucky, they could not get help from the government. The armies they paid to support were defeated time and time again by the invaders. Now it will be soon.
Exploding all the way to the east coast, what use is there for a government like this?
Under this sentiment, coupled with the covert assistance of federal agents, the movement to separate from the government of the United States and make their own states independent soon began in several states in the western United States, especially Washington State and Washington State, where federal troops were stationed.
California is in the most trouble because of these federal troops
Leaders will promise to local state or city government officials on various occasions that as long as their states are independent, the South China Sea Federation will take them off the enemy list, and then everyone should do business and talk about cooperation.
Cooperate without forcing them to help the federal army fight against the US government.
Who doesn’t want to live in a peaceful environment? There is an old saying in China: It’s better to be a peace dog than a person in troubled times. When war is raging, when you go to bed every night, you don’t know whether you can still see the third world.
For those ordinary people who have no ambitions or lofty aspirations, it is better to live a peaceful life. As for whether it is called California, the United States or the country of California, who cares?
Therefore, with the acquiescence of the South China Sea Federal garrison, California and Washington State took the lead in launching referendums, and the leaders of the largest parties in these two states have also taken ships to the South China Sea Federation. Where will they and
The government representatives of the South China Sea Federation came to talk about some matters after the independence of their states, such as the political status, economic status of both parties, etc.
The U.S. government is very angry and frightened by the betrayal of these two states. The current war situation is not good for the United States. If these two states are allowed to leave without permission, other states will soon follow suit to avoid war. In this way
First of all, why is the U.S. government spending so much time trying to make peace with the South China Sea federal government?
