"Your Excellency, this is the plan that General Eisenhower came up with. If this plan can be implemented, Island Nation's Army may be able to launch an attack on South Seas without relying on their navy!" George? General Marshall sent Commodore Eisenhower's plan to President Roosevelt. Because it concerns the Philippines colony, and even whether to declare war on Germany in advance. Therefore, it must be left to President Roosevelt to decide. No one else is qualified to make such a decision.
President Roosevelt quickly read the plan, and had to admit that he was also shocked by Audacious's plan.
"General Eisenhower, I have to admit that your idea is very Audacious!" President Roosevelt said.
"Your Excellency, I just want to solve the current dilemma. After all, we have invested too much in Island Nation. If Island Nation's Army cannot launch an attack, then our huge investment will be in vain." Commodore Eisenhower said.
President Roosevelt nodded. "Indeed, we have invested a lot of resources in Island Nation. If they cannot pose a threat to Germany people as we expected, then our huge investment will be in vain."
"Your Excellency, when Island Nation Navy has no way to gain control of the sea, using Philippine Islands as a springboard to launch an attack on South Seas is undoubtedly the best choice." George? General Marshall said.
"But the key to the problem is how do we allow the islanders to use the Philippine Islands as a springboard? It is obviously unrealistic to start a war with Germany now. We still need time. Judging from the current situation, it will take at least more than half a year for us to be ready. But if the islanders do nothing within these six months, it is obviously not possible. The Germans have begun to prepare accurately on the battlefield in Russia. It is foreseeable that they will launch a large-scale attack after spring. It is undoubtedly very difficult to say whether Bu Russia can resist the German attack. If Bu Russia cannot hold on, the Germans will be able to eliminate all threats. Therefore, we must cause trouble for the Germans!
"Your Excellency, in this case we can only let the Island Nation people rely on Philippine Islands. Otherwise, there is no other way. If Island Nation Navy wants to defeat German Navy and seize control of the sea, it will take time. And what we lack most now is undoubtedly time." George? General Marshall said.
"Yes, since there is no other way, then implement this plan! Let Island Nation people seize this opportunity. This is the greatest support we can provide them. If under such circumstances, they will not be able to defeat Germany If the people are deployed with South Seas and the Australian army, they will be too incompetent. By then, United States will definitely cut off their support," President Roosevelt said. In order to break the deadlock, he had obviously made up his mind to implement this risky plan.
"Your Excellency, how can we prevent the Island Nation people from using Philippine Islands, and the Germany people will not use this as an excuse to declare war on us?" George? General Marshall asked. There is no doubt that this is the problem that has been bothering them.
"Let the Island Nation people declare war on us! They launched an attack on Philippine Islands, and we are unable to resist their attack. In this case, the Germany people will have nothing to say!" President Roosevelt said with a smile.
George? General Marshall and Commodore Eisenhower couldn't help but be stunned. They didn't expect President Roosevelt to come up with such a method. However, if Island Nation launches an attack on Philippine Islands, then Germany really has no excuse to accuse United States. After all, United States is also a victim! Of course, you don't need to think about it to know that once Island Nation's Army lands on Philippine Islands, the hundreds of thousands of U. S. troops stationed in Philippines will lay down their weapons and surrender to the Island Nation's Army. And Island Nation's Army will occupy Philippine Islands effortlessly. What will happen next can naturally be imagined. Island Nation people who seize the opportunity. I will definitely not miss this excellent opportunity. Millions of the Island Nation's Army will use Philippine Islands as a springboard to attack Dutch East Indies, and then attack Indochina and Australia, defeating the eight hundred thousand German military deployed here.
And all this is exactly what United States wants to see. They hope to use the strength of the Island Nation people to weaken the strength of Germany, so that Germany has to deploy troops from other places to reinforce South Seas and Australia. In that case, the purpose of United States will be achieved.
"But, Mr. President, how do we explain to the people?" George? General Marshall thought of a question.
United States has always been supporting Island Nation, which also makes Americans have a great impression of Island Nation people. But once Philippine Islands is attacked by Island Nation people, this will definitely make the United States people very angry. Maybe even the government will be criticized and protested by the United States people. At that time, I'm afraid this will cause a lot of trouble.
"Island Nation adopts the method of undeclared war. At the same time, we can block the news. After we declare war on Germany, Island Nation will become our ally. There will be no need to hide everything. I believe that the people will understand by then." President Roosevelt said.
Although, United States has always flaunted itself as a country with freedom of speech. But in fact, there is no so-called freedom and democracy at all. The power of the government still overrides all freedoms. Those newspapers and other media have no guts to go against the government as long as the government issues an order. Therefore, if US government wants to block the news, there is no way for those United States people to be fooled.
"Your Excellency, we must ask Island Nation to sign a secret agreement with us, making it clear that Philippine Islands is only temporarily loaned to them. After the war is over, must be Philippine Islands is returned to us. In addition, our troops stationed at Philippines must be properly resettled or withdrawn to the mainland." George? General Marshall said.
President Roosevelt nodded.
Subsequently, President Roosevelt summoned Cabinet senior officials and told them everything about the plan. Although many senior officials had doubts about this, the plan was approved under the strong request of President Roosevelt. The senior officials of US government Cabinet also hope that Island Nation's Army can launch an attack on South Seas and Australia as soon as possible.
