Third Reich: I took over power

President Franklin nodded, satisfied with the Army's performance at this stage.

A total of 20 million troops and more than 30,000 tanks. Although I don't know what the actual combat effectiveness is, such a huge army is scary to look at, and it is enough to make people feel at ease.

When Franklin was in power, he had reason to believe that the Eagle Army, which had such a huge military power, would be able to make the invading Third Reich pay a heavy price.

"What about the Army Air Corps?" Franklin asked in power.

In this war of the Third Reich, the air force performed very well. It seized air supremacy, and then carried out large-scale bombing to support ground troops. This caused heavy losses to various countries, and they also realized that the air force The Yingjiang Kingdom has made rapid progress in this area by relying on its powerful aviation industry, especially after absorbing the advanced aviation technology of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets. It can be said that the Yingjiang Kingdom The strength of the Army Air Force is definitely second only to the Third Reich Air Force.

But unfortunately, after the war broke out, the Third Reich Air Force fought hard against the Japanese Army Air Force. Through large-scale bombings again and again , forcing the Eagle Country Army Air Force to take off into the air. In large-scale air battles, the strength of the Eagle Country Army Air Force has been continuously consumed. So far, the strength of the Eagle Country Army Air Force has been damaged. A huge loss. Especially after a large number of aircraft manufacturing plants and supporting factories were bombed by the Third Reich Air Force, the aircraft manufacturing capacity of the Eagle Country has dropped significantly. This can no longer support the Eagle Country. The confrontation between the Army Air Force and the Third Reich began.

Especially after the Third Reich Air Force stationed in Guba Island, it began to bomb the southern part of the Eagle Country. During this large-scale bombing, the Eagle Country The Army Air Force suffered heavy losses.

In addition, the morale of the pilots was completely at a low point, and many pilots even refused to take off for combat. It can be said that the current situation of the Army Air Force is very bad

"Your Excellency, the current situation of the Army Air Force is very bad. The entire Army Air Force only has more than 7,000 combat aircraft left. And, because a large number of airports were destroyed, these aircraft were mainly deployed in the Midwest. We have secretly built a number of field airports on the east coast, and will deploy some of our fighter planes to airports on the east coast in the near future."General Henry Arnold said.

President Franklin nodded. He also knew that the Army Air Force had suffered heavy losses in the wars during this period. It is not easy to persist until now.

"Your Excellency, the Army Air Forces have made great sacrifices for our country. However, we have no other choice but to fight the Third Reich. Therefore, in the next battle, the Army Air Force must go all out!" Franklin said

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor! The Army Air Force will do its best!"Admiral Henry Arnold said.

Admiral Henry Arnold didn't know what would happen to the pilots below. But at least he would try his best. However, even so, Admiral Henry Arnold also knew that they would In the battle, I am afraid that it will not be able to withstand the attack of the Third Reich Air Force. The air superiority on the battlefield will soon be controlled by the Third Reich Air Force.

"Your Excellency, our aircraft manufacturing capacity is too low now and must be further expanded. Otherwise, the Army Air Force will soon be exhausted."Admiral Henry Arnold reminded.

President Franklin nodded repeatedly:"This is indeed a problem and we must solve it. I will order to expand aircraft production capacity as much as possible."

Now the country's aircraft production capacity has dropped to a very low number. Even if new aircraft manufacturing plants are built in the central and western regions, production capacity has never been able to increase because supporting industries have also suffered bombings. Every month , it can only produce two to three hundred fighters. And, in order to ensure the competition for air supremacy, these aircraft are almost all fighters, namely P-47 fighters and P-51 fighters. As for other B-17 heavy bombers , the B-24 heavy bomber and the B-25 medium bomber have been temporarily cancelled.

"So, gentlemen, are our Atlantic Walls ready? President Franklin asked.

The so-called Atlantic Barrier was proposed by President Franklin just after the naval defeat.

As the name suggests, it is to build a strong, almost barrier-like defense line in the Atlantic direction of the Eagle Country. Its purpose is naturally to resist The Third Reich attacked.

Moreover, in order to avoid being hit by the naval gunfire of the Third Reich Navy, the main defense line was built thirty kilometers away from the coast. In this way, it could avoid being hit by the naval gunfire. In order to avoid casualties and the destruction of defense fortifications as much as possible.

However, the length of the Atlantic Barrier is too long, extending from the Gulf of St. Lawrence in the Maple Leaf Country in the north to the Gulf of Mexico in the south, with a length of thousands of kilometers.

In In just three months, it is simply a delusion to build such a line of defense. What the Eagle Country Army can do is to build fortresses and fortresses at key locations. Other places are supplemented by trenches and fixed firepower points.

It can be said that the symbolic significance of this defense line is probably greater than the actual combat significance. It is natural to imagine how much role it can play in the war.

However, Franklin’s administration attached great importance to this, so that The Yingjiang National Army can only bite the bullet and build it.

"Your Excellency, the Atlantic Wall is being built. It's just that we didn't have enough time to build it. Therefore, the barrier is difficult to actually complete!"General George Marshall said.

Franklin nodded in office. He also knew very well that the Third Reich would not give them so much time.

Next, the Third Reich would soon launch an attack on the Eagle Country. And Whether the Eagle Sauce Country can withstand the attack of the Third Reich depends on the next battle.

"No matter what, our military must be ready to go all out. We cannot be easily frightened by the Third Reich. Even if the Atlantic Wall is not completed, we must resist their attack. The life and death of Yingjiang Country depends on this battle. This time, we must fight to the end!" Franklin said

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!"The senior military officials of Yingjiang Country responded one after another.
