Transmigrated as the Crown Prince

Chapter 1001 Landing War (10)

At the beginning, they laughed at the French army's steady retreat on the European battlefields, and the French government running away with its tail between its legs like a bereaved dog; but they did not expect that things are unpredictable and things are changing, and now it is their turn.

No one had much reaction to Vice President Truman's proposal. The guys in Congress will take care of this kind of thing, so they don't need to worry about it.

What they had to worry about was how to stop the Germans. "That is to say, it is impossible for us to resist the German landing. Then we must trap them in South Carolina and wait until our large forces arrive to drive them into the sea in one fell swoop."

"..." The idea is good, but it may not be realized.

But regardless of whether it can be realized or not, they can only bite the bullet and execute it. Now the United States is in danger. Once it cannot stop the German army, the United States will end up falling apart like the Soviet Union. This is a result they would rather die than face.

In the Berlin Palace on the other side of the Atlantic, Yannick had a leisurely breakfast and held a high-level meeting.

Marshal Rundstedt reported with a red face. "Your Highness, five floating docks can be installed before noon today. By then our army will be able to go ashore." Before the emergence of nuclear weapons, everyone believed that this landing battle would be extremely brutal and bloody. As a result, a nuclear weapon easily destroyed a defensive section of the US military, and also cleared the mines deployed by the US military, allowing our leading troops to easily land and occupy two sections of the defensive line.

"Very good, the first goal is Charleston?" Although Yannick has never been to this city, he heard from the famous sociologist and writer Bill Bryson that Charleston and Savannah are the most beautiful in his heart. Two American cities. He is also a fan of Bryson and would like to experience the beauty of these two cities in person if he has the chance. "The residents of Charleston should have almost fled, right? That should be able to take over the city completely."

Marshal Rundstedt asked worriedly. "Your Highness, what if those civilians resist with guns?"

As we all know, the United States is a country that allows the legal possession of firearms. Whether it is for hobby or to provide families with the most basic ability to protect themselves, almost every American family is equipped with a gun, and many of them are experienced gun users.

Moreover, the United States also demonstrated the superiority of universal gun ownership during World War I and World War II. For example, during World War I, a soldier named York went to the European battlefield with the U.S. 82nd Division. In one battle, York's infantry platoon was almost wiped out, leaving only York and 7 wounded soldiers, while there were 157 German soldiers on the opposite side. York killed 25 enemy soldiers in the next battle station, captured 132 people, and rescued 7 comrades. Soon after, he was promoted to sergeant and received the Medal of Honor from the U.S. Congress.

Sergeant York's extraordinary performance is not cheating, but that before he joined the army, he was a very good hunter and his marksmanship was extremely accurate. During training, his marksmanship shocked his superiors. Recalling his bravery after the war, York seemed very relaxed and happy. "It's no different than when I'm turkey hunting in the woods back home."

After the outbreak of World War II, this fierce man expressed his willingness to go to the battlefield again, but was rejected. The reason is simple. He was already 54 years old at the time and suffered from diabetes, pneumonia, arthritis and other diseases. He was not suitable for fighting the enemy at all.

The existence of this large number of American people who can use firearms makes it possible for any army to encounter extremely frequent resistance once it sets foot on American soil.

"If you encounter resistance, shoot to death." Yannick said casually. "After occupying a city and collecting all the firearms, anyone who dares to hide it privately or refuses to cooperate will be shot to death." Extraordinary times require extraordinary measures. He must first ensure the safety of his own soldiers. As for the lives of other people, that can only be ranked first. later. "Let's see if they choose life or a gun." At this point, Yannick couldn't help laughing. "They should be very familiar with this method. After all, they also asked the Indians to 'live or they want land'. But if they want both guns and lives, they can let them follow the US government. Presumably those guys are already doing it Preparations are being made to 'move the capital'."

After discussing military issues, Speer asked. "Your Highness, what should we do with the city of Moscow?"

"..." Moscow City is a big problem, and Yannick can't think of any good solution. It would be okay if the entire city collapsed, but most of it is still hollow underneath.

This is a bit troublesome. For example, when building a building, unless the foundation is laid through underground fortifications of less than 50 meters, it can ensure that there will be no collapse in the future. However, ordinary high-rise buildings in later generations generally only have foundations 20-30 meters deep. If the foundation is more than 50 meters deep, it will increase the cost in vain. The same goes for subway construction. If the subway is built to a depth of 20 to 30 meters, you have to be careful of landslides.

"It would be great if there was a bomb that could compact the ground instantly." Yannick couldn't help but mutter. Unfortunately, unless the Tsar Bomb is used, there is no other bomb in the world that can meet this condition.

After thinking for a while, Yannick finally came up with a not-so-clever idea. "Just contract out the city of Moscow. If someone wants to build, they can contract a piece of land to build." If the government's funds are used to rebuild this city, it would be better to build a new city next to it. "Reinhard, did you mention last time that there are many treasures under the city of Moscow?"

Reinhard nodded. "Yes, Your Highness, Natasha has marked us the locations of five underground vaults, and the engineering team is digging."

"After digging out these treasures, Moscow can contract them out and let others do the tossing. Prime Minister Speer, write me a relevant plan. If no one is willing to contract..." Today's German territory has not yet had time to develop. There are so many places, and maybe no one wants to waste money on this ruin. "If no one is willing to contract it, then just leave it alone. It will become a natural park in a few years." He thought of a later documentary called "The World After Human Disappearance." If humans suddenly disappear forever, in just a few months, various types of plants will appear in the city. Over time, plant growth will quickly take over every corner, and within 10 years, cities will be back to embracing wildlife.

The entire city of Moscow has been reduced to ruins. If it is left alone, it may become green in two or three years.

"Anyway, we are not short of these thousands of square kilometers now."
