Chapter 237 Emergency combat meeting of senior British and American officers

But at this moment, the people who were completely opposite to Haussel and Heinrich's mood were Eisenhower, Lieutenant General Smith, General Alexander, Commander of Spaz Air, Hewitt; General Eck, General Anderson, and General Jimmy Doolid; General Curtis Lewand, Commander of the Third Bomber, and Commander of British Airways Mallory and others were waiting.

Originally, they thought that if they had dispatched so many planes to Berlin for bombing and provide backup support, then their 1,000-air bombing will be completed smoothly and should have a good victory record.

However, when this large-scale air strike was over, their planes lost more than 600.

Although they dispatched more than 2,000 aircraft to support the war in the back, they did not lose much troops, and they also shot down more than 80 German aircraft.

But in the face of their extremely painful losses, Eisenhower and others completely ignored so few fruits of victory.

Now for Eisenhower and all the high-level officers of the United Kingdom and the United States, they were not thinking about how to retaliate against the Germans, or first reward and encourage those pilots with record.

The biggest headache they have now is how to explain to President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Churchill, and all members of the United Nations and the United States’ Joint Staff, as well as to the people of the United Kingdom and the United States.

"How could this happen! This time we sent more than a thousand aircraft to bomb Berlin, and there were more than 2,000 aircraft to support the reserve, but we were defeated. What happened! When did our aviation force become so vulnerable!"

In the combat conference room with a depressing atmosphere, all the high-level British and American officers were in a heavy mood and silent until General Alexander couldn't bear it and suddenly stood up and roared angrily at everyone.

"It's not that our aviation force is incompetent, but that the German army has more new weapons and their air defense firepower is super fierce. And they seem to know the time, location and scale of our air strike!"

"To be honest, the German army is waiting for us to bomb them this time, and then they suddenly have a big counterattack and catch us off guard! The German army is ambushing our air force!"

Commander of Sparz Airlines refuted unwillingly.

"I feel like you mean we have spies here, and traitors betrayed the secrets of our bombing operations?"

As soon as he finished speaking, General Arnold, the commander-in-chief of the US Army Air Force, said with a sharp look on his face.

"Yes! That's what I mean, and I feel that we should immediately arrest these German intelligence officers today and deal with them all! Otherwise, our future operations will also be killed by the German army by waiting for us!"

Commander Sparz Airways replied seriously and with a positive tone.

"I will agree with your opinion, General Sparz!"

Before General Arnold could reply, Eisenhower immediately agreed loudly.

At the same time, his eyes also flashed with decisiveness and fierceness.

Because the losses this time were really huge, and it was not the first time that he had lost troops and generals like this, but the third time.

The first time was on the Pangkao Peninsula in Tunisia, the second time and the third time were suddenly appeared by the German army on Pantelleria Island, and the new weapons and equipment they suddenly used, killing many aircraft and army members.

For Eisenhower, who had won several consecutive victories, this was a naked slap in the face and a shame to his military career.

He must avenge this bloody hatred, and he must also take revenge as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if he would defeat the war again and again, his political career and the position of commander-in-chief of the European Allied Forces would soon be dismissed by President Roosevelt.

"I also agree to clean up all the German spies lurking inside us as soon as possible! In addition, I personally think that we must find a way to immediately give the German army a favor; to restore our failed record. Otherwise, if the above-mentioned investigations come to light, we may not be able to live a good life!"

When Eisenhower finished speaking, General Jimmy Doolid immediately interrupted.

"I have no choice but to support the German spies and traitors immediately, and to counterattack the Germans and avenge them. I have no objection! But I feel that you seem to have overlooked some very important things, that is, the new weapons and equipment used by the Germans are becoming more and more numerous and endless!"

"For these new weapons and equipment that caught us off guard, I feel that we should also investigate their names, combat performance, and how to produce them, and the Germans were there to build them!"

Lieutenant General Smith also suddenly interrupted.

"I agree with Lieutenant General Smith's proposal, because the reason why the Germans were able to deal with our troops was that they had a large number of new weapons and equipment; they were also powerful weapons, and weapons that surpassed our existing science and technology!"

"At least I have never seen such powerful weapons since I joined the army, so I can't name the new weapons and equipment used by the German army now, and I don't even know their research!"

"So I'm very sure that if we want to fight back against the Germans and defeat them, we must know the advantages and disadvantages of their new weapons and equipment, as well as the principles of making, and we must have new weapons and equipment as powerful as their weapons, or more powerful than their new weapons."

"Otherwise, all our counterattack plans will be empty in the face of absolute strength, they will be foolish, and have no effect at all. We will even bury all our vitality into the attack of the German new weapons and equipment!"

When Lieutenant General Smith finished speaking, Lieutenant General Hewitt, who had been thinking, suddenly stood up, glanced at the audience sharply like a blade, and then said in a deep voice.

As soon as the words came to an end, the whole audience was silent, and everything became silent.

During the entire combat meeting, even a needle tip fell to the ground quietly, and could be heard clearly.
