Building warships requires accumulating time. After all, even an escort aircraft carrier requires a few months at least, while attacking an aircraft carrier takes seven or eight months in less than a year. This is the fastest.

Originally, several ships were about to be built, but they were bombed again. The US Navy was so in tears. Now, Nimitz has given an idea.

Since we cannot obtain enough naval fleets in a short period of time and build the US Navy as strong as Germany, then we might as well bring the German Navy to the same level as us.

It takes a long time to build warships, but it takes a lot of time to build aircraft.

In this era, building aircraft and tanks are almost the same, but not as expensive as later generations. A country with hundreds of aircraft is a big country, and all aircraft are tens of thousands.

The next step for the Germans is to attack Greenland. So, just set up an ambush nearby and attack the German fleet!

Nimitz's proposal won everyone's approval, and Roosevelt had a sudden idea. Since this is the case, he would not just copy some German war examples. In the past, the German air strike on Scapa Bay was definitely the most exciting!

It would be better to organize the same air strike, set out from Greenland and blew up the German Navy's base? As long as the number of their aircraft carriers is sunk, the United States will usher in a short time of peace and will have enough chance to breathe.

When Roosevelt thought of this, he became excited and his face flushed, as if life was rejuvenated. That is, why didn’t he think about it?

A sneak attack on the German fleet and turn the world around in one fell swoop!

In Roosevelt's mind, this thought suddenly popped up and could no longer be taken back. Looking at his staff, Roosevelt blurted out: "How about we attack the German naval base? Sink the German main warship in the port."

Recently, Roosevelt seemed to be too eager for quick success and instant benefits, and his mind was full of wild ideas, such as when he was going to bomb Moscow, but fortunately he was doing well, he eventually changed to intercepting on the route.

Now, the facts have proved that our side has fallen into the trap. The Germans have long known about their actions. They have been attacked on the sneak attack instead. If they were to bomb Moscow, I don’t know how much the precious strategic bomber would lose!

Now, without learning from his lesson, Roosevelt actually went to sneak attack the German naval base!

Can this succeed?

Germany attacked Scapa Bay because it was isolated and helpless, far away from the British mainland, surrounded by water on three sides, and geographically determined that it was prone to sneak attacks.

However, Germany's bases are different. The German naval bases are mainly in northern Germany and along the North Sea coast. Since Britain, Denmark and other countries were conquered by Germany, this place is considered the depth of its territory. The bomber group of its own side flew over Greenland and must have been discovered from afar.

Along the way, Germany had enough to arrange six or seven interception lines, causing heavy losses to the US bomber troops.

If you take a step back, even if you fly to the German naval base, what can you do? You may not be able to find the German warships. Now, near the German port is strictly blocked. You don’t know how many ships are left in it, and you don’t know whether there are aircraft carriers, unless you are dispatched to conduct air reconnaissance.

But as long as you are out, you will definitely be alarmed.

Where are the classic German tactics easy to be copied!

Nimitz frowned and explained the various problems to Roosevelt. Fortunately, Roosevelt was stubborn and listened to it.

"Yes, it seems that we must be cautious." Roosevelt said: "Then the navy should conduct a demonstration on how likely it is to attack the German base. When necessary, we cannot be afraid of sacrifice. Just like when Doolittle went to attack Tokyo, if our battle succeeded, it would greatly boost our morale."

Roosevelt looked at it from a political perspective. After Germany conquered the Soviet Union, there was probably a pessimistic and disappointing atmosphere in the United States. Once everyone thought that it was impossible to win, it was very likely that they would really lose.

A victory must be used to improve people's self-confidence!

"Mr. President, I have a good idea." Nimitz's mind had already planned a plan: "We introduced technology from the Soviet Union to develop a large cross-age bomb. Although it cannot be used in combat with the Germans, it is only for deterrence. However, it should be fine for island countries and Midway Island where we were invaded? If we solve the problem of island countries, we can do our best to deal with Germany."

Everyone opened their mouths wide.

...

The meeting lasted for several hours and various action plans were determined. When everyone else left, Roosevelt left Marshall and Groves again.

"Mr. President, our Manhattan project has been restarted," Groves said. "The Russians are now fully committed to their work. They are working hard to build our nuclear bombs as soon as possible."

Roosevelt nodded: "We have no time. Now, I am looking forward to our nuclear bomb every day. Once the Germans build it first, we will completely lose hope of victory."

If there were nuclear bombs, the Germans' thermostress bombs would definitely be thrown down without any scruples. Now it has just become a new balance. The United States does not use it, nor does Germany do it, just like the previous poison gas bombs.

But the nuclear bomb will break this balance.

"In addition to nuclear bombs, we also need to develop rockets." Roosevelt said: "The Germans parade in Moscow and showed their latest missiles. If they can cross half of the earth to attack us, we must have the same weapon."

Roosevelt already had a premonition that if this ballistic missile is installed with a nuclear warhead or a thermopressor warhead, it would definitely be a disaster, because this thing cannot be intercepted at all!

Originally, Robert Goddard could be the leader of the American Rockets. Unfortunately, he was taken away by the Germans more than ten years ago. At that time, the Germans began to develop the Rockets, but they knew nothing!

Unfortunately, there are no experts in this area in the United States.

In later generations, the United States' rocket technology began with Germany's V-2 missiles. Braun, a scientist who has worked for Germany for more than ten years, transformed into the father of the United States' rockets, which is ironic.

"We lack experts in this field, but we have found out that the Soviets have experts in this field, and they are also secretly developing rockets. Two of them, named Korolev and Grushko, are the leaders of rockets and engines." Marshall said: "If we can get them over, we can build this stall."

Although a large number of Soviet scientists were invited to the United States for inspection, the prisoners were not counted. Now, both of them are still working in Prison No. 4 in Siberia.

Roosevelt's eyes turned: "Well, you can find a way to get them over! Stalin needs our support now, and the Soviets now have no scientific research capabilities. Only we can make this kind of thing come out!"
