The 107th chapter America's future (1)
ps: Two chapters are updated in a row, and there is another chapter tonight. Please stay tuned...
After the report, Kettle said with embarrassment at the end: "General Garland has applied for a long list of candidates for the Knight Cross. There are too many, right?"
"Does it meet the consistent evaluation criteria? Is there any fraud?"
"It's true that the situation is true. Marshal Rommel also sent a telegram to express his approval and use personality guarantee, but..."
Hoffman waved his hand: "All be taken! We will never treat the meritorious soldiers unfairly, otherwise who will go to the next war? Will you and me be old again?"
Keitel immediately stood attentively and saluted: "Yes!"
"Is the battle officially announced?"
"The brief results have been published, and the detailed reports have not been released yet."
"I need to write it carefully. I think about it. The following points are very important and must be reflected." Hoffman explained solemnly, "After writing, please check it out the doctor first and then give it to you not only win in military affairs, but also win in politics!
First, our enemies are very powerful, brave and tenacious. Whether it is Nimitz's fleet attack, Patton's ground attack, or the US military's attack and transportation like moths to flames, it all means that this is a brave army. We are not fighting with stupid pigs and cowards, we are fighting desperately with the elite troops of a big country thousands of kilometers away from Europe;
Secondly, the reason why the enemy failed and we won. On the one hand, it was because our commanders and all soldiers were braver, more tenacious and wiser. On the other hand, it was because we represented the call for justice. We established our own country for millions of German-born people who were bullied and oppressed, drove away the American capitalist forces for South American countries, including Brazil, and received unanimous support and love from all South American people, including Brazilian people. The only difference between us and the enemy is that we fight for justice and social fairness, and the enemy fights for regional hegemony and capital interests;
Third, the United States also occupies some South American territories including Brazil, Venezuela, Colombia, etc., oppressing Cuba, Puerto Rico, Haiti, Panama, Costa Rica and other Caribbean, and small Central American countries, occupying our allies such as France, Britain, and the Netherlands. We have no intention of attacking and occupying the United States, but if the American forces continue to occupy the above-mentioned areas, they will be hit hard and completely destroy this sacred obligation is Germany's unshirkable responsibility as the leader of the EU!"
Kettle didn't say much, but nodded repeatedly, and his forehead was full of "Yuan Gaoming!". Hoffman didn't know what he thought.
After receiving the news that Patton was killed and the entire Salvador group of the Fifth Army was destroyed, Marshall, whose condition had just improved a little, cried bitterly and fainted.
The bigwigs participating in the Federation seemed to be the end of the world, and they were all speechless.
"George...ah...George..." Truman patted the handrail with pain, "Why didn't he retreat by plane? So many generals retreated...but he..."
Eisenhower couldn't say a word: As a general who also experienced the miserable defeat and retreat in Africa, he was the one who understood Patton the best. Patton regarded the miserable defeat in the Horn of Africa as the greatest shame in his life, and was always considering revenge. The last time it was revealed that training soldiers with live ammunition was actually an expression of this kind of revenge mentality. How could such a person retreat again?
When he thought of this, he complained about Hewitt, wanting to blame him for not knocking the person out and bringing him back, he had clearly sent a telegram to give him a special reminder.
Hewitt's face was covered in tears. He never expected that this farewell with Patton would last forever. He hated that he had never insisted at that time: forcibly confiscating Patton's weapons, tied him up on a plane and took him to Washington, even if he apologized to him in the future...
"President, we must solemnly mourn General Patton and General Roosevelt Jr.... We must use their heroic feat to sacrifice their country to inspire all American people to resist aggression." Li Hai advised, "The pensions for the two generals must be issued as soon as possible. After a long time, it is difficult to explain public opinion here."
Truman nodded. In two days, it would be his last debate with Dewey. Although he had made up his mind to quit the election, the public opinion was fierce but very deadly.
“This is CBS, dear listeners, now we are broadcasting the war news with an extremely sad mood:
...Since September, in order to defend freedom, defend the national interests and territorial sovereignty in the United States, counterattacked the aggressive attacks of the Axis invaders, the Fifth Army of our 6th Army, commanded by George Patton, fought fiercely with the enemy on the eastern coast of Brazil. In this battle, our total strength was only over 10,000, and it was deployed separately from the two places. It lacked combat experience. The enemy dispatched the main naval fleet, the experienced 6th Army division that had been fought on the eastern front for many years, with a total of nearly 20,000 air force and navigator troops and violent rocket troops.
Faced with the unfavorable situation of being outnumbered, General Theodore Roosevelt resolutely led the remaining fighting group to bravely cut off the rear, fought bravely in front of two times his superior forces, covering the main force's retreat, resisting the enemy's last shot and bullet, and he died heroically; General Patton led the main force to fight and retreat, defeating the enemy's offensive attempts many times, causing major damage to the enemy Rommel cluster, forcing the enemy to advance less than 150 miles in two weeks... In the end, he was trapped in a siege because he was outnumbered.
In the encirclement, General Patton inspired the soldiers of the entire army to continue to resist bravely. The officers and soldiers of the Fearless 6 of the Air Force withstood the pressure and retreated from the encirclement day and night under the siege of enemy fighter jets.
After the battle started, nearly 20,000 officers and soldiers of the 6th army retreated to Recife through the ground, and about 17,000 other officers and soldiers retreated through air transport, including more than oos and minor and serious wounded.
At the last critical moment of the battle, General Patton gave up the opportunity to retreat by plane four times, and devoted himself to combat command, giving away the precious escape passage to other officers and soldiers and wounded and sick, using self-sacrifice to motivate the soldiers to persevere to the end and cover other brothers to retreat.
On the last day of the battle, General Patton still formed an armored assault group. He took the first tank to attack, hoping to find a way out for other officers and soldiers. Unfortunately, he was hit by a sinful shell and all the soldiers in the car were killed... The rest of our army's troops were exhausted from ammunition and food, and finally led their troops to surrender out of humanitarianism...
General George Patton, General Theodore Roosevelt Jr. and all the Allied soldiers who fought for democracy and freedom for life, died heroically to defend American independence, and to defend the interests of the people of the United States forever!"
"Associated Press News... President Truman signed an order to pursue Jin's heroic death, General George Patton, who was pursuing Jin's heroic death, and awarded his Congressional Medal; General Theodore Roosevelt, who died bravely, was awarded a Congressional Medal to pursue Jin..."
"This evening, President Truman, all members of the Cabinet and the Joint Conference, representatives of the Members of Congress, and representatives of allied countries went to visit General George Patton's hometown to comfort his wife and family members. The President, with tears in his eyes, recounted the heroic battle of General Patton, his deeds of bravery, fearing danger, self-dedication, and heroic sacrifice, and extended his deepest condolences to them, pointing out that "... All American people are proud of General Patton, we will inherit the will of General Patton and fight unswervingly to defend the fundamental interests of the United States and the people...'
He also highly praised his wife's contribution: she always loved and supported the national defense cause. Mrs. Atrice supported her husband's development of new tanks. She not only convinced the seven generals of the 6th Army to come and watch. She also drove the tank around the field for a week (it showed that this tank was extremely easy to use). Although this tank was eventually denied, she still supported Patton as always, and even purchased tank parts for her husband's troops who were short of funds...
The president said emotionally: 'The whole United States owes you, and I owe General Patton a thank you'
The grief of Mrs. Patton spoke with a very tenacious spirit that General Patton had buried for many years. "As a soldier, the most magnificent way of death is to let the last bullet at the end of the war hit my forehead." George unfortunately took a step forward and hoped that the people of the United States would further unite and fight bravely and defend the free world.
Admiral Patton's eldest son, Mr. George Smith Patton, is currently studying at West Point Military Academy. He was originally scheduled to graduate in 1946. After receiving the bad news of his father's death, he proposed to temporarily interrupt his studies and apply to go out of the army in advance to join the army, and vowed to avenge his father. After careful consideration, the president accepted this determination to fight and sent George Patton Jr. to the Second Armored Division for training. The division was an elite armored division of our army formed by Admiral Patton, and will be renamed "Padon Division" in the future...
It is also reported that the President will set off to visit General Theodore Roosevelt's hometown today…”
Nimitz and MacArthur led the fleet to New Caledonia. In order to seize the time, he increased the entire formation to 18 kilometers (almost the highest level of the Casablanca level).
After receiving the bad news from the country, Nimitz shook and almost fell down, crying: "I was the one who harmed him, and he... I am guilty, I am guilty..."
Patton originally hoped that Nimitz's navy could fight a small 6th battle in Victoria and defeat the Germans' edge, but Nimitz wanted to solve the Crank fleet before the German main fleet arrived, so he did not agree to this idea. Then, the Battle of the South Atlantic ended up like this.
Without the loss of sea power, how could Patton's troops end up like this?
He regretted it...
MacArthur held the railing tightly and looked at the sea blankly: "George, go all the way, I will definitely find a way to avenge you for your revenge!"
