"US government will negotiate with Germany as soon as possible and ask Germany to stop attacking United States's homeland. Please believe that US government is capable of ensuring the safety of people's lives and property." Woodrow President Wilson White House said to reporters and arriving people on the lawn in front of US government.
"Shit! The Germany people bombarded our city. The Boston port was completely bombed into ruins. I don't know how many Americans died under the Germany people's bombardment, but the government doesn't even have the guts to declare war?" A United States reporter present asked angrily.
Woodrow President Wilson glanced at the reporter and walked into White House without saying anything more.
Such a passionate young man is not a bad thing for United States. However, if you don't even know your own strength and are blindly impulsive and want to seek revenge on Germany, you are seeking death. After all, Germany people are not that easy to deal with. If United States has the strength to defeat Germany, they will choose to declare war on Germany, no matter what others say.
Woodrow President Wilson left directly, which made those Americans present even more angry.
Ordinary United States people believe that this is a sign of the government's incompetence and that it is no longer able to defend their interests. Then they will undoubtedly be able to vote the government out of office. However, those true elites know that the government has no choice. Under such circumstances, if you still want to maintain a tough attitude, it will only make United States pay greater losses. After all, United States now has no capital to fight against Germany. Being tough is simply stupid behavior.
In this world, the strong have the final say. Germany is stronger than United States, so you can press Germany to give it a good beating. As for United States, he had no other choice but to swallow his anger.
German Navy's bombing of Boston spread throughout United States East Coast at the fastest speed. For a time, people were panicked. United States people can't help but worry whether their place will become the next target of Germany people.
Although many cities are just small cities, without industry or naval base, they have no attack value at all. German Navy's attack on United States's homeland this time was ultimately to weaken United States's strength, not just to kill people. Therefore, those small cities or cities without developed shipbuilding industry do not need to worry at all. You know, the price of Capital Ships's main gun shells is not cheap. Even if Germany is rich now, it can't be wasted casually.
However, those ordinary people simply did not understand all this. They only know that if they stay at East Coast, their lives will be threatened. Therefore, escaping East Coast and escaping to a place far away from the coast has become the choice of many people.
Although, US government has repeatedly come forward to assure everyone that the government has the ability to ensure their safety, and Germany will not launch an attack on their city. However, there are still many people who do not believe in the government. In addition, the rumors are getting more and more intense, which makes those Americans even more worried.
East Coast is United States the most developed place, but in developed places, if even the common people have escaped, how can they develop? Once people flee United States East Coast, United States's economy will be severely damaged. Therefore, US government tried its best to appease the people and let them stay in East Coast.
The next day, German Navy launched an attack on New York. Although, German Navy still did not bombard New York City, but only destroyed New York's ports and shipyards. But this also worries Americans. Even New York was destroyed, which undoubtedly proves that the communication between the government and the Germany people is not smooth! Under such circumstances, everyone will naturally rush to flee the eastern coast.
Originally, many Americans believed that they would be safe as long as they escaped to a place more than 20 kilometers away from the coast. Although, this distance is still within the range of German Navy's Capital Ships's main gun. However, at this distance, the accuracy of artillery fire will be greatly reduced. Therefore, there is no need to worry about Germany people wasting shells.
However, their view had to change on the third day. Because, Germany people launched an attack on Baltimore on this day. Baltimore is far away from the coast. In other words, although Baltimore is in the bay, its geographical location is superior. If German Navy does not want to suffer heavy losses, it will not dare to go deep into the bay. Therefore, almost no one thinks that Baltimore will be attacked.
On this day, Carrier Fleet of German Navy dispatched a large number of Carrier-based aircraft and launched a bombing attack on the ports and shipyards of Baltimore. Hundreds of Carrier-based aircraft bombed the Baltimore's port and shipyard into ruins in less than half a day.
Such an attack not only opened Americans's eyes but also deeply shocked them. They suddenly realized that even Baltimore who were far away from the coast were attacked by Germany people. So if they fled to a place 20 kilometers away from the coast, they seemed to have no safety guarantee! If you want to be truly safe, you have to keep running away.
Looking at the attack radius of German Navy and Carrier-based aircraft, they would have to flee the coast for at least two hundred kilometers.
As a result, a large number of Americans began to flee United States East Coast, dragging their families with them. Those with money can drive a car, while those without money can only walk. As for public transportation, don't even think about it. US government In order to prevent people from fleeing East Coast, public transportation has been suspended.
The main population of United States lives in United States East Coast, which is the most developed and most economically prosperous place in United States. However, if United States people are allowed to flee here, this place will soon become a dead city. By then, United States's economy will be severely damaged.
Although officials of the Woodrow Wilson government tried their best to tell the people that the place where they lived would not be attacked. However, no one believes their lies now. Three cities have been attacked by Germany people in succession. The government's guarantee has undoubtedly lost all credibility.
For most ordinary people, saving their lives is undoubtedly the most important thing. As for everything else, you can put it aside for now.
A large number of Americans escaping from East Coast will not only severely damage the United States economy, but also cause a large number of social problems. These people need a lot of money to survive. If you don't have money and you can't live on, naturally all sorts of problems will arise.
