"Oh! Fuck!"
"Roosevelt's head exploded all of a sudden. This wave simply killed him, and he lost even his underpants.
Even if the United States is a prosperous country, it cannot bear such a huge loss!
"Mr. President, please calm down!"
"Mr. President, please take care!"
Looking at Roosevelt's painful expression, Hull and other military and political officials quickly offered words of comfort. They were really worried that Roosevelt, who was not in good health, would not be able to withstand this blow.
¡°Okay, I¡¯m fine!
After taking several deep breaths, Roosevelt gradually calmed down, and then asked: "What about the oil depots, grain depots and material warehouses on the island?"
Stimson glanced at Roosevelt, and then cautiously continued: "
In this raid, the Japanese not only had a large number of combat aircraft, but also a large number of transport aircraft. They directly airdropped the Marine Corps to seize the oil depot and grain depot, and also dispatched the Army to seize the beach and land on the island.
These actions completely exceeded our expectations and plans, and we were caught off guard.
Therefore, the defenders failed to destroy the oil depots, grain depots and material warehouses on the island in time. The 4.7 million tons of heavy oil, 2 million tons of grain, and a large amount of military supplies, weapons and equipment previously stored on the island have been completely taken over by the Japanese army! "
"Oh! Farke! Is there anything worse than this?"
Roosevelt couldn¡¯t help but swore again and became extremely excited again!
However, just when Roosevelt was about to have a heart attack, Stimson continued to make a last-ditch attack and said:
"In addition, the shipyard repair shop on Oahu has also been completely taken over by the Japanese army. In other words, once the Japanese salvage the warships that sank in the port, they are more likely to repair the warships and put them into use again."
"Oh my God! Doesn't this mean that the Japanese are very likely to sail the Enterprise, Lexington, Saratoga, Pennsylvania, and Arizona to attack us in the future? Let the American people die by then. In the hands of ships built by our own country?¡±
Roosevelt¡¯s eyes turned white. He no longer knew how to describe his terrible mood. His blood pressure was soaring and his lungs were over-inflated and about to explode!
"Mr. President, I'm afraid the worst outcome is this."
Sting Changchang sighed and said with great helplessness: "Now we can only hope that the sunken battleship is seriously damaged. It is best to completely lose the possibility of repairing it and putting it into use again."
"Ouch! Shet!"
Roosevelt frantically slapped the table again. Just a moment ago, he was thinking that the Pacific Fleet could survive a few battleships and so on, but now he has to hope that they will all be blown to pieces and cannot be rebuilt again!
This is simply a slap in the face!
After a while, Roosevelt regained his composure and asked everyone: "We still have Oahu and several other outlying islands, and we still have thousands of U.S. troops fighting. So what I want to ask is whether the Hawaiian Islands can still survive. Defend? We don¡¯t have a chance to counterattack yet?¡±
""
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one answered for a long time because this question was too difficult.
The entire Pacific Fleet has been destroyed, the aircraft on Oahu are now exhausted, and the largest island in the Hawaiian Islands has also been captured by the Japanese army. The fact that the Hawaiian Islands cannot hold it is already obvious as a lice on a bald man's head.
The answer to the question is very clear, the Hawaiian Islands can never be defended!
As for counterattack, that is even more idiotic. Even if all the Atlantic Fleet is transferred back, it is not a match for the Japanese Navy at this stage.
"If even these last ships are defeated, the consequences will be unknown. The United States is very likely to be directly attacked by the Japanese, and will be unable to fight back.
Seeing that everyone was speechless, Roosevelt already knew the result, but he still looked at Stimson with great reluctance and said: "Is there really no possibility of counterattack?"
"Mr. President, it's really impossible."
Sting nodded bravely, and then explained: "The Hawaiian Islands are two thousand nautical miles away from the west coast, so far away from the mainland!
With such a long distance, not only does it take a long time to transport soldiers and supplies, but it is also easily attacked by the Japanese fleet. The risk is too high! "
After a pause, Stimson continued: "Although Oahu and several other outlying islands are still under our control, there is nothing we can do to save it.
No surprise, ?The defenders on the outlying islands will soon announce their surrender.
If the Japanese army takes advantage of the victory and pursues it, the garrison on Guam and Midway will not be able to hold on for too long, and they will surrender sooner or later! "
¡°What about Australia?¡±
Roosevelt frowned and sighed softly: "If Australia, which covers more than seven million square kilometers, falls, Japan will transform from an island country with a small territory and poor resources to an intercontinental power on par with the Soviet Union and the United States.
¡°In this way, the struggle for living space between Japan and its Asian neighbors may end, and Japan can truly concentrate its efforts on fighting us.
Just thinking about such consequences can make people¡¯s backs ache! "
Hull nodded in agreement: "Yes, if the Japanese seize a continent from the white people, then it will become large and powerful enough, and there is no need to "lose it to Europe and America and gain it in East Asia"!
It is even possible that the Japanese will become the leaders of all yellow countries, causing changes in the entire world structure.
Therefore, I also believe that we must defend Australia together with the British, so that we can use Australia as a base to advance, launch a decisive battle with the Japanese army in the Southeast Asian battlefield, and interrupt the worst possibility! "
"Yes, we must defend Australia!"
Roosevelt nodded, then he looked at Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox and said:
"The navy must transport sufficient supplies and troops to Australia in the near future to enable it to independently resist Japanese invasion when maritime traffic is temporarily interrupted."
Knox said in embarrassment: "Mr. President, the fall of Hawaii is a foregone conclusion, and the waterway to Australia is not very safe.
Even if the Atlantic Fleet participates in the escort, the United States is still unable to send reinforcements and supplies to Australia. This is a huge challenge! "
Roosevelt glared at Knox and asked in a bad tone: "Do you mean that because of fear and sacrifice, we can only watch these despicable and shameless Japanese occupying the overseas territories of the United States, slaughtering American soldiers, and leaving them alone?" Keep getting bigger?"
"this¡¡"
Knox was speechless because he couldn't continue.
At this time, Marshall, the Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army, said solemnly: "That is not the case. As long as the President is determined, there is no doubt that the great United States will defeat the Japanese!" (Remember this site's website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
