A world war is going on.
Now that the United States is ready to join the war.
Then why are there redundant weapons? but.
They also know that foreign military sales are an extremely important step.
Just like what Tianmu said.
Keep England.
This allows the United States to retain the window to enter the European battlefield. on the contrary.
It will leave the United States trapped in the American continent.
By then, isolationism may really turn into isolation in the physical sense.
"Selling weapons on such a large scale is tantamount to joining a war, and Hittele will not let him go."
"Now, the United States really cannot stay out of the matter."
Looking at Tianmu.
The ancients were even more curious about the next development.
Tianmu:
【Although Marshall was secured, when it came time to finally deliver the goods, Minister B Woodling refused to sign and tried to make a last ditch effort.】
【After Roosevelt heard about it, he gave him the most direct order as president, and Woodring had no choice but to comply.】
【In this way, the unarmed British army obtained weapons from the United States】
【Almost all of Churchill's needs were met, except for one thing - destroyers】
【In the English Channel, destroyers were ideal for guarding against the Germans】
【But England had already lost more than half of its destroyers, and new destroyers would not be launched until the end of 1940. By that time, Hitler had already arrived.】
【Churchill had no choice but to ask Roosevelt for help. The first word was 50 ships. It didn’t matter if the equipment was almost there. The number had to be enough.】
【Roosevelt would not make a loss-making deal. He asked Churchill to exchange for 8 overseas military bases with a 99-year lease.】
【Churchill had no choice】
【The German threat is imminent. Who else but the United States can produce 50 destroyers in one go? ]
Selling rifles and cannons doesn’t count.
The United States then exchanged warships for American military bases!
"Talent! What a talent!"
"Roosevelt was so visionary! The English war was in full swing on the European continent, and he was making a lot of money selling military supplies on the side! They even bought their overseas bases!"
"This is tantamount to expanding territory! Although the United States is isolated overseas, far away from the battlefield and protected from disasters, it is also too far away and lacks opportunities to intervene. But now it is better. With an overseas base, it is equivalent to an extra springboard. This The business is so profitable!"
"He did not let the American people down and broke the laws of their ancestors and sent him to the presidency for the third time!"
Everyone watched in amazement.
From the perspective of a bystander, the United States was so lucky to have Roosevelt.
He only paid some military supplies.
Not even a single human life was lost.
He just watched the war from the other side of the bank.!
It’s so exciting!
What is the purpose of fighting?
Isn’t it for profit?
But now he has found a way to obtain profits without fighting.
And he has also obtained the opportunity for the United States to personally participate in the war in the future.
As well as the most important overseas base.
Such a deal was achieved.
Roosevelt’s reputation......I'm afraid it's higher?
Everyone thought so.
However.
The facts were exactly what they expected
【But even such a very good deal for the United States has encountered a lot of opposition in the United States.】
【Isolationists warn that selling naval warships to belligerents is an act of war】
【Admiral Stark also testified to Congress that these destroyers are necessary for the defense of the United States.】
【Unable to persuade Congress to approve the deal, Roosevelt took a desperate risk and asked the attorney general to find clauses in the law.】
【It proves that as President of the United States and Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy, he can directly reach this deal without the approval of Congress. 】
What?
Such a lucrative deal.
They actually objected?
When seeing this scene.
Countless people were shocked.
Dahan plane.
Liu Che was very confused
"Were these people kicked in the head by a donkey?"
"Such a good deal actually goes against Roosevelt?"
Liu Che was very surprised. He had already known from what he said before in the sky that the American people's isolationism was serious. But what he didn't expect was that it was so deep into the bone marrow! In order to isolate, he even sent people to his door. No more territory! The lease term is 99 years. What is the difference between that and forever?
"It seems that democracy is good"
"However, blind democracy will allow the country to be swayed by public opinion and miss opportunities."
Liu Che became deeply afraid of the word democracy.
The people are so ignorant.
This will still be the case in later generations.
If the big Han people at this time also do this, it will be tantamount to self-destruction!
After all, the people's wisdom has not been fully understood..It
’s not just talk!
【On September 3, 1940, Roosevelt officially announced the destroyer-base exchange deal.】
【When reporters asked him if he needed Senate approval, Roosevelt said directly that we had made a deal and the matter was over.】
【This behavior quickly aroused sharp opposition】
【The St. Louis News-Post published an article saying: Please pay attention to the word notice. The president is not asking Congress to approve this deal. He is notifying Congress that he has approved it. Mr. Roosevelt started a war today. He became the United States. history's first dictator】
【But as the public gradually understood the contents of the transaction, the direction of public opinion on the entire incident quickly reversed.】
【The Washington Post hailed it as the first major expansion of American soil since the Spanish-American War】
【The Louisville Courier-Journal also said,"We couldn't have made a better deal."】
【The destroyer deal boosted Roosevelt's reputation and made him both famous and wealthy. 】
This is right!
When you see that the people understand the content of the transaction.
The direction of public opinion in the United States has reversed.
Everyone looked like they should.
The Ming Dynasty plane.
Lao Zhu looked at the St. Louis News-Post and published an article saying this line of text.
A little curious
"post?"
"publish an article?"
"Could this be a department like my Damingdi newspaper, except that all people can watch it?"
Dibao is also called Dichao and Dichao.
It is also known as"Chaobao","Tiaobao" and"Miscellaneous News".
It is an announcement news similar to a bulletin.
It is a document specially used for court reports. and intelligence news transcripts.
During the Ming Dynasty, each local government had a permanent office in the capital.
They would regularly copy the emperor's instructions, imperial edicts, and ministers' memorials to the local government.
See this post.
Old Zhu suddenly found it very interesting.
The imperial newspaper was for the government and was copied to officials in various places.
The post was for all the people.
"The post is good." (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
"If I, the Ming Dynasty, also have such reports to convey my will to all directions, and the people can know what I am doing and what I am thinking every day, then why worry about the people of the world being deceived?"
Lao Zhu was very interested.
He secretly recorded this matter in his heart and planned to carry out this move when he has free time.
【The destroyer deal boosted Roosevelt's reputation and made him both famous and wealthy.】
【But Churchill is not too bad】
【These 50 destroyers not only have military significance, but also have strong political significance】
【With this deal, Churchill pulled the United States from a neutral position toward him in front of the whole world.】
【As he himself said, by any historical standard, the German government was justified in declaring war on the United States over the destroyer deal.】
【From the moment the deal was concluded, the affairs of England and the United States were inevitably linked, rolling forward like the water of the Mississippi River, unstoppable.】
【Subsequent developments were as Churchill expected, with the United States and England getting closer and closer.】
【When the British government's confidence gradually depleted and it could no longer afford to purchase weapons, Roosevelt introduced the Lend-Lease Act, which allowed Britain to obtain arms from the United States through leasing and borrowing.】[]
【If the previous destroyer deal could still use the word"deal" to disguise the United States as neutral, then the Lend-Lease Act completely disclosed the United States' position to the world.】
【Now the British don't even have to give money, they just need to return the undamaged weapons after the war. 】
If it was just trading before.
So now Roosevelt has completely stopped pretending.
He pretends to be neutral.
To cover up his coveting of this war.
But now.
As soon as the Lend-Lease Act came out.
Almost telling the world clearly.
The United States stood against Germany. certainly.
This is also because I really can’t pretend anymore.
There is no need to pretend anymore.
The act of selling a destroyer.
The position of the United States has been completely exposed.
The Tang Dynasty plane.
When you see that America has taken off its disguise.
He fully disclosed his position towards the Allies.
Li Er's eyes shined brightly!
He thought to himself
"If Hitler didn’t have enough reasons to attack the United States before,"
"Then there is already the best reason at this time"
"The British were defeated step by step under his offensive and could no longer afford to buy weapons. It was the United States that gave them the ability to continue fighting Germany."
"Can Hitt tolerate such behavior?"
Li Er expressed his judgment to everyone.
Most of the people present were military generals with illustrious military exploits.
The current discussion was extremely intense.
"This Hitler is not an easy man to deal with. If it weren't for the intervention of the United States, he would have swept across England. Can he endure it?"
"They must send troops. The situation is now clear. If the United States does not fall or stops supporting England, then Hitler will not be able to take England."
"But......The United States was alone overseas. How could Hitler cross the vast ocean to attack the United States? And does he still have enough troops to declare war on a big country now? If I remember correctly, the cooperative relationship between Lao Maozi and Germany will soon end, and the two countries are about to go to war."
"It is unrealistic to directly attack the American mainland. After all, the distance between the two sides is too far. However, American supplies must always be sent to Europe. If I were Hitler, I would specifically pursue the American fleet at sea. , beat them until they no longer dare to help!"
"But in this way, the United States would have enough reasons to end the war in person. How could Hitler dare to provoke another big enemy for himself?"
"But if you don't fight back, will you just sit back and watch his continuous assistance?"
【Through the Lend-Lease Act, the United States sent a total of US$30.7 billion worth of arms to Britain during World War II, but Britain finally repaid only US$650 million.】
【Arguably, much of Lend-Lease aid was free】
【In order to persuade the American people to accept this bill, Roosevelt used a very wonderful metaphor】
【He said: Suppose my neighbor's house is on fire and I have a water pipe, what should I do? I can't say you take the money first for this water pipe that costs $15. I don't want the $15. I just want my water pipe back after the fire is put out. That's what the Lend-Lease Act is all about.】
【But Americans know very well that it is impossible for the British to bring back the destroyed planes and sunk battleships.】
【Captain B of the Navy said bluntly, now it’s our turn to pay.】
【In fact, what really prompted Americans to accept the Concession Act was the growing threat from Germany.】
【As Roosevelt said in the fireside chat, the experience of the past two years has proved that no country can tolerate Nazism.】
【A tiger cannot be petted into a kitten. If the United States wants to share peace with the Nazis, it must surrender completely.】
【At the end of the conversation, Roosevelt formally declared that America would become the arsenal of democracy.】
【This speech and the implementation of the Concession Act aroused strong opposition in Germany.】
【The People's Observer newspaper claims that we now know who we are fighting.】
【The final battle has begun】
【The German High Command also believed that the United States was tantamount to declaring war on Germany.】
【Raeder and Dönitz asked Hitler to send out their wolf-like submarine force to hunt down American ships in the Atlantic.】
【At this time, Hitler showed sufficient strategic determination.】
【He repeatedly warned the Navy that under no circumstances may it conflict with American ships outside the restricted area. Even within the restricted area, there must be clear orders before action can be taken. 】
Hit can hold it back!
When the United States was frantically providing military assistance to England.
Hitler resisted and did not attack the United States.
This reason.
It surprised many people.
And in the Tang Dynasty.
Li Jing was not surprised by this
"`.Those who can achieve great things should have a big picture"
"The current European battlefield has already made Xi (Li Liaohao) very anxious. He has no intention of provoking the United States, so this is a wise move."
"It's extraordinary that Hit Le can endure this."
Li Jing felt that Hitt was out of consideration for the lack of resources.
In fact, the reason why he could hold back was only temporary.
Because at the moment, he had a big plan that was about to be implemented.
And once the plan was completed, he would I can't stand America's offense either.
【The reason why the navy was suppressed from attacking American ships was because Hitler did not want anything to interfere with his upcoming big plan.】
【This plan is so important that it has taken him several months of effort】
【But what he didn't know was that Roosevelt had already predicted this.】
【If Hitler had read the text of the Lend-Lease Act carefully, he would have found that it did not focus aid on England, but on any country that the President of the United States deemed important to national defense.】
【Why didn't Roosevelt specify which countries? Which country made Roosevelt feel that he might support it in the future, but could not say so now? 】
This section in the canopy.
It made everyone look a little confused. at the same time.
A kind of hero for future generations.
The feeling of playing chess across the vast ocean.
Coming at you!
This is a showdown between masters.
It is a contest between the great men who stand at the pinnacle of the human world in later generations.
For a while.
Countless people were very curious.
What is Hitler's big plan?
Besides England, who were the other countries that Roosevelt wanted to assist?
Looking at the canopy level.
Everyone became more and more curious.
In the sky.
There is a scene of Roosevelt being woken up late at night
【On June 22, 1941, Roosevelt was awakened from his sleep】
【His men told him that Germany had just launched an offensive against another country.】
【If we want to say on which day did the Americans embark on the road to world hegemony, it was on this day】
