"What?" When he heard the news, Arnold shouted in surprise. His voice was so loud that the whole room echoed.

Just now, Roosevelt has never made a statement. In fact, he is giving him a chance. In fact, Roosevelt is also a firm advocate. He believes that he can pay certain sacrifices in order to win. Moreover, Roosevelt needs a decent victory to inspire the whole country.

The last time midway won, it was with the island countries. Since the war, the Germans have never lost. Originally, the United States was confident, but after several wars, the United States has always failed. Now it can be said that there is a dark shadow in the hearts of the American people.

Roosevelt needed victory, so he even deliberately delayed time, hoping that the last bomber force could surprise him. Even killing only one aircraft carrier was enough for him to be excited.

As long as there is victory, it can bring hope to the people.

However, at this most critical time, someone pretended to be the Pentagon and sent orders to the bomber forces ahead to cancel the mission?

How hateful!

Roosevelt's hand, turned the wheelchair, turned around and looked at the people. At this time, the people clearly saw sadness from Roosevelt's eyes.

At this moment, Roosevelt did not hide his feelings.

"We, the United States of America, are really troubled." There is endless loneliness in Roosevelt's words.

If the German fleet cannot be hit hard in the battle in Greenland, the Germans can land on the American continent at any time with Greenland as a springboard, and the future war will be more difficult.

After all, the Germans are the masters of the continent. On the European battlefield, the Germans marched in and showed terrible combat effectiveness. They thought they could hit the Germans heavily at sea. Who could have thought that all this had become a bubble.

After saying this, Roosevelt suddenly realized that he had lost his attitude. If he didn't have confidence in himself, how could he expect others to inspire confidence in victory? Once the Supreme Commander loses his confidence, the fruit is terrible.

"However, since the founding of the United States of America, it is destined to exist on this continent. The temporary defeat will not discourage us. We believe that the final victory still belongs to us." Roosevelt said, "now, let's make the next arrangement to deal with the deteriorating situation after the German occupation of Greenland."

Roosevelt could not lose heart. He had firm perseverance. Now he must take up his own responsibilities.

"We have deployed the Atlantic defense line on our east coast, and now, after the Germans landed in Greenland, I speculate that the Germans will not necessarily attack on our Atlantic defense line, but will probably bypass it, just like they once bypassed the Maginot defense line, such as landing from the east coast of Canada."

Later, Admiral Kim first said his own speculation.

At first, the United States spent a lot of money to establish an Atlantic defense line. Relying on coastal fortifications, coastal defense guns and dense aviation bases in the rear, it intended to hinder the German cross sea landing. Now, this defense line is basically completed.

However, it is absolutely impossible to speculate on the actions of the Germans with the usual ideas. That Chirac has never played cards according to common sense.

In other words, the Germans are likely to land from Canada.

Generally speaking, Canada is not suitable for German landing. The Labrador Peninsula in eastern Canada has a cold climate and most of it is virgin forest, which is not suitable for German armored forces. At the same time, the border between Canada and the United States is the Great Lakes basin. As long as we hold several key points, we can block the German attack.

If the Germans choose to land from Canada, it is bound to be a tortuous route. Look at the Germans in Europe and Asia, they just like to push on the field. When they push to the Ural Mountains, they give up. They are afraid of complex terrain.

However, we must not speculate with common sense. The more impossible it is, the more likely it is. This is the experience of the European battlefield.

Now when admiral Kim put forward the argument of landing from Canada, everyone present nodded. This inference is very possible.

"It seems that we should transfer our troops to Canada to defend the Labrador Peninsula." Marshall agreed with this conclusion, and then there must be practical action.

The example of the German landing across the sea in Britain tells everyone that the best way to deal with the German landing across the sea is to rush directly into the sea. Once they have successfully established a beachhead, it is impossible to push on.

The army must be mobilized!

But where is it?

"Move our west coast." Someone suggested.

"No." Marshall shook his head: "recently, the balloon bomb attack of the islanders has become more and more intense. Our troops along the Pacific coast undertake the task of maintaining law and order. Once the troops are transferred and the people panic, they will have no ability to respond. God knows whether the islanders will take advantage of it."

It would be easier without those damn balloons.

We can't transfer those along the Atlantic coast, nor can those along the Pacific coast. There are not many inland. The National Guard of those states are now being reorganized into troops, which is not enough.

"Why don't we transfer the from the southern provinces?" Someone suggested.

There are threats on both sides of the East and West, in the north, and in the south, it is relatively stable. Next to Mexico, there are at most some illegal immigrants, which is not enough to fear.

This proposal made many people present nod. After careful consideration, Roosevelt nodded: "then send troops from Texas to defend Canada's Labrador Peninsula. At the same time, urge Canada to send more troops to Labrador Peninsula."

Canada is an exotic flower in the whole world. Their land area is huge, but the number of troops is quite rare. Before the outbreak of World War II, the total number of troops was only more than 4600.

Canada doesn't need an army. The south is the United States. Except for the war between the United States and Canada in the early days of the founding of the people's Republic of China, there is almost no conflict in the future. Canada doesn't need to guard against anyone, it's useless to want an army, and there is a bottomless hole in military spending.

It was not until World War II that Canada began to mobilize civilians to join the army. The most dazzling thing was the air force. When World War II ended, Canada was already the fourth largest royal air force in the world.

Now, Canada is also expanding its army, but the speed can not satisfy Roosevelt.
