Jagged Germany

Chapter 1034: Shocked (seeking monthly ticket)

  Washington, White House, the phone in the duty office rang crazily.

   "Hello!" The officer in charge rubbed his sleepy eyes and answered the phone.

   But then, the sleepiness on his face disappeared completely, as if he had heard some news that shocked him.

   "God! What the **** is going on? Are the Germans going to attack our homeland?" The officer on duty looked disbelieving. Then immediately ran to the bedroom of President Woodrow Wilson.

   "Bang! Bang! Bang!"

  Woodrow? President Wilson was awakened by the hasty knock on the door. Instead of getting angry, he put on his pajamas and opened the door.

    "What happened?" Woodrow? President Wilson asked. He knew that if there was no emergency, they would not bother him at this time. Moreover, the look on the faces of the officials on duty gave President Woodrow Wilson a very bad feeling in his heart.

   "Your Excellency, Boston is under attack by the German fleet. The Germans are bombarding Boston's port frantically." The duty officer said.

   "What? How is this possible?" President Woodrow Wilson almost thought it was an April Fool's joke. Although Germany and the United States have already torn faces on the Azores issue, neither President Woodrow Wilson nor other senior American officials think that Germany will launch an attack on their homeland. But now, the development of the situation seems to have exceeded their expectations.

   "This is true, Your Excellency, just received a report from Boston." The officer on duty said. How dare he lie about it? If he really did that, he might have to pack up and leave immediately!

   "What are the Germans trying to do? Are they planning to go to war with the United States of America at this time?" President Woodrow Wilson also didn't feel the slightest drowsiness, he only felt a chill in his back. If Germany is really preparing to go to war with the United States at this time, what should they do?

   "Immediately notify the cabinet ministers, the chief of army staff and the chief of naval operations to meet at the White House. Tell them that it is an emergency and they must arrive at the White House within 20 minutes!" President Woodrow Wilson said.

   "Yes, Your Excellency the President." The officer on duty immediately went to prepare.

  President Woodrow Wilson also went to wash up immediately, and then had two bites of breakfast. He knew that once the meeting started, he didn't know when it would end.

  When President Woodrow Wilson appeared in the office according to the time, all senior military and political officials of the United States had already arrived. However, the expressions on everyone's faces were very dignified. Obviously, they all already knew what happened. There is no doubt that this is undoubtedly a very difficult thing for them to accept.

   "Everyone, the Germans have sent a huge fleet to attack Boston. Everyone already knows about this, right?" President Woodrow Wilson stared at everyone with a dark face.

  Everyone nodded again and again, Secretary of the Navy Daniels was even more ashamed and angry.

   "Your Excellency, I am very sorry that the Navy did not detect the German fleet in advance. In this matter, I am responsible." Secretary Daniels took the initiative to admit his mistake. He knew that only by voluntarily admitting his mistake could he be given a lighter punishment.

   "Okay, let's not say who is responsible. The most important thing now is to figure out the true intentions of the Germans and how to solve this matter." President Woodrow Wilson said.

"Your Excellency, the Germans chose to attack our homeland at this juncture, because they saw that the strength of the navy was greatly damaged, and it was nothing more than a threat to them. However, the Germans should know that even if our navy is severely damaged, they will absolutely It is impossible to destroy us. We still have a strong army that can defend our country. Although Germany's military strength is very strong, it is difficult for their military power to be projected to the west coast of the Atlantic Ocean because of the barrier of the Atlantic Ocean." War Minister Garrison said.

   "But why would the Germans attack our homeland? Don't they know that if they do this, we will have no choice but to go to war with them?" Secretary of State Bryan said.

  Indeed, when the homeland is under attack, if the United States has not made further statements, it will definitely make the American people very dissatisfied. The government whose support has dropped to a freezing point may even collapse because of this.

"If we declare war on Germany and the two countries are at war, then we will be completely blocked by the German navy in the Atlantic Ocean. There is no doubt that the Germans have this strength now." Chief of Naval Operations William Benson said the admiral.

  Suddenly, the expressions on the faces of everyone in the office became even uglier. You must know that the maritime trade in the western Atlantic is related to the foundation of the United States. If they are blocked by the German navy in this direction, then the United States may not be far from decay. Even, the United States will gradually perish because of this. This is undoubtedly a nightmare for the United States.

"Even, the Germans can further attack our eastern coastal cities. Don't forget, the Germans have very powerful aircraft carriers. At least all cities within a range of 100 to 200 kilometers from the west coast will probably be destroyed because of this." Destroyed by the Germans," Admiral William Benson continued.

   "No, we absolutely cannot go to war with the Germans. In that case, they will be able to justify their name and launch an attack on our homeland without any consideration." Treasury Secretary McAdoo said.

   You know, the eastern seaboard is a fertile land that the United States has already developed. Once this place is destroyed, the strength of the United States will be greatly damaged. At that time, the United States may not even be considered a second-rate power.

  President Woodrow Wilson nodded. Although he was very aggrieved, he also knew that if war was launched against Germany, the state of the war would cause the United States to pay a greater price. In that case, it will be very detrimental to the United States.

"Indeed, now is not the time to go to war with the Germans. Our strength is still too weak. If we go to war now, we have no chance of winning at all. In fact, we will continue to decline because of this. On the other hand, the Germans are affected by The effect will be small. By then, they will be stronger and stronger. We will be even less of a match for the Germans."
