Transmigrated as the Crown Prince

Chapter 968 America Strategy (4)

"'German Alliance'?" Yannick, who had just returned from the shooting range, curled his lips in disdain when he heard the somewhat disgusting title reported by Reinhard. "What do they want?"

He is not naive enough to think that these guys formed the so-called "German Alliance" out of love for Germany and unconditional dedication to Germany. It's not all about profit, but he is curious about what these guys want. With the Soviet Union as a lesson learned, they also want to carve out a piece of land from the United States and establish a new country? After all, the United States is not small. Excluding Alaska and Hawaii, the mainland area is about 8 million square kilometers. Even if each piece is divided into 400,000 square kilometers, it can still be divided into 20 pieces. There should be many people jealous of these big cakes, right?

Reinhard said respectfully. "They want California."

"California?" Yannick raised his eyebrows slightly. "You said they want all of California?"

"Yes, Your Highness." Reinhard heard that Yannick's tone was somewhat unkind, and knew that those guys from the "German Alliance" had made conditions that they should not have made.

"These guys have quite an appetite." Yannick snorted coldly. Of course he knew where California was and had already set his sights on it. How could he give it up to others? "Tell those guys, there is no need to negotiate! If they want other places, I can give them to them. Of course, this is if they have merit. If they insist on California, there is no need to cooperate, and it is not necessary to rely on them. Landing stateside.”

"As you command, Your Highness."

What's more, California is not an ideal landing point. People who have a little knowledge of the topography of the United States will find that California is an area that is completely isolated from the mainland of the United States geographically, very much like an island. It is surrounded by densely forested mountainous areas to the north, the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the east, large deserts to the southeast, Mexico to the south, and the Pacific Ocean to the west. It can be said that it is tightly separated in all directions. Moreover, not only are the roads blocked, but even the waterways are basically disconnected from the inland areas.

If the landing troops land in such a place, they will have to trek through mountains and rivers to advance inland. Isn't this asking for trouble? !

Yannick came to the map and looked at North America. The terrain of the United States is highly variable, with terrain higher in the west and lower in the east. There is a coastal plain along the east coast, which is wide in the south and narrow in the north, extending to New Jersey. There are also some glacial sedimentary plains in Long Island and other places. Behind the coastal plain are the undulating foothills that extend to the 1,830-meter-high Appalachian Mountains in North Carolina and New Hampshire.

To the west of the Appalachian Mountains lies the relatively flat Central Plains of the United States, which is also home to the Great Lakes and the Mississippi-Missouri River Basin, the fourth largest river basin in the world. West of the Mississippi River, the topography of the Interior Plains begins to rise, eventually ending in the Great Plains, a vast area of ​​central America with few topographic features.

To the west of the Great Plains are the towering Rocky Mountains, which divide the continental United States into two parts from south to north, with the highest peak in Colorado reaching 4,270 meters. The West Coast region includes the Sierra Nevada and Coast Mountains.

Judging from the map, it is best to choose the east coast as the landing point, but Americans are not fools, so they naturally focus on defending the east coast. In this case, choosing the west coast to land will have the effect of making a surprise attack in the east and west? Or land from the south coast?

It seems that the high command has to formulate a battle plan to attack the United States mainland. Because Yannick has always subconsciously believed that Americans will surrender obediently after being hit by a few nuclear eggs, so up to now there is no systematic and mature combat plan; I hope these Americans will not raise their flags and surrender at the most critical moment, otherwise He really knows how to punish these bastards.

"Are there any other forces besides this 'German Alliance'?"

"There are quite a few, but the strength of these forces is not that great. They cannot be of much help. They are just guys who want to get an advantage."

"Haha, want to take advantage? Don't they know the principle of no pain, no gain? Ignore them, unless they can truly control a state, we will talk about it then."

To truly control a state, you have to use the military. The U.S. military is divided into two types: the federal regular army and the National Guard. The latter is administered by the states. The U.S. Constitution stipulates that states have a high degree of internal autonomy. States can enact laws and regulations and have their own military, the National Guard. The National Guard has an air force and an army. Because it cannot have warships in peacetime, it does not have a navy. Although the U.S. National Guard Air Force is not as good as the regular U.S. Air Force, it is not weak in strength. The U.S. National Guard Army has the same equipment as the U.S. regular Army and is an all-American advanced equipment.

However, no matter how strong the National Guards in each state are, they are subject to many constraints from the U.S. federal government and cannot move at will.

Because the United States is a country with three branches of power, from the federal level to the 50 states. At the federal level, there are checks and balances between the president, Congress, and the Supreme Court. Historically, no president in the United States has been able to use military power to authorize or defy Congress. This is true at the federal level, and even more so at the state level. Nominally, the National Guard is under the unified control of the governors of each state. In fact, major actions require the approval of the state assembly, and the governor is only the highest official in name. With the checks and balances between the upper-lower state assembly and the governor, it is difficult for each state to act alone. Even the powerful California does not have the conditions to support its own troops and "sit powerful" on its own.

Therefore, Yannick didn't care whether these guys could succeed or not, and he didn't bother to ask. After all, according to their plan, they will not launch an offensive against the United States until next spring. There are still nine months, so let these guys take their time.

Yannick asked casually when he returned to his desk. "What's going on with our intelligence network in the United States?"

A proud smile appeared on Reinhard's face. "Your Highness, our intelligence officers have penetrated into all departments of the FBI. Over time, the entire Bureau of Investigation will belong to us. In addition, we have people in all walks of life across the United States, including high-level governments. If we are not destroyed this time If we lose the United States, maybe even the president of the United States will be ours in a dozen years."

"Haha, good job." In this way, even if we don't need to defeat the United States militarily, we can still play tricks on the United States?

However, for the sake of safety, the best choice is to completely defeat the United States, and after the United States is defeated and divided into pieces, these intelligence personnel can still play a significant role.
