"Bang bang bang!"
St. John's, Lieutenant General Commander Campbell, British Army Garrison Command Newfoundland, had a knock on his bedroom door.
Two minutes later, Lieutenant General Campbell, wearing pajamas and eyes full of sleepiness, opened the door.
"Hey, man, you'd better tell me something urgent happened!" Lieutenant General Campbell's tone was full of bad intentions.
"General, Trepassey was heavily shelled by the enemy. The troops stationed there suspected that the Germany people would land from there." The adjutant reported to Lieutenant General Campbell with a panicked look.
"What? Germany people? Attack Trepassey? How is that possible?" Lieutenant General Campbell was stunned.
"General, this is absolutely true news," the adjutant said.
"Damn it, why did the Germany people attack Trepassey? Didn't War Ministry just tell us before that our place is safe? Bastard, we were lied to again." Lieutenant General Campbell was furious.
There are only three Infantry Divisions in the entire Newfoundland. Although I don't know how many troops German military dispatched, it is obviously not something they can resist. Originally, War Ministry planned to send five Infantry Division and one Armored Division to Newfoundland. However, after German military made an attack on the Caribbean Sea, the source increase plan was suspended. Obviously, the British Army Ministry believes that there is no need to send too many troops in Newfoundland. But now, Germany people have obviously deceived them. Their real attack target turned out to be Newfoundland.
"General, what should we do now?" the secretary asked.
"Report to the War Ministry immediately. We have been fiercely attacked by Germany people. They will land in Newfoundland in large numbers. We need air support and more troops. Otherwise, Newfoundland will not be able to hold it." Lieutenant General Campbell ordered.
At this time, requesting reinforcements from the country is undoubtedly the most important. Only with enough reinforcements can we possibly be able to withstand the attack of the Germany people.
"In addition, let 3rd Infantry Division gather troops towards Trepassey and be sure to resist the attack of the Germany people. Tell 3rd Infantry Division 2nd Infantry Brigade to stick to the position and not retreat without permission. Let 2nd Infantry Division enter emergency combat readiness to guard against The Germany people attack St. John's. If the Germany people attack St. John's, they can even blow up the port and cannot let the port fall into the hands of the Germany people. Let 4th Infantry Division be on standby and be ready for reinforcements!" Lieutenant General Campbell ordered.
There are only three Infantry Division on Newfoundland, so he can only pin his hopes on these three Infantry Division. As for whether they can withstand the Germany people's attack, it depends on whether reinforcements can arrive in time.
Anyway, Lieutenant General Campbell is very unsure about this battle. After all, since the Germany people launched this attack deliberately, they will obviously not give up until they achieve their goals.
However, Lieutenant General Campbell soon got the news. German Marine Corps has occupied Trepassey. British Army 3rd Infantry Division 2nd Infantry Brigade has been defeated.
Minister of War While David Magson was having breakfast, his secretary hurried over.
"Is there anything important?" David Magson asked after drinking the milk in his hand.
"Your Excellency, Newfoundland has been attacked. General Campbell believes that Germany people are likely to land there," the secretary reported.
"What? Germany people will land in Newfoundland, how is that possible?" David Magson was stunned as if he was struck by lightning.
"That's what Lieutenant General Campbell reported." the secretary said.
"Asshole, aren't the Germany people going to attack Caribbean Sea? Why are they attacking Newfoundland at this time?" David Magson cursed.
But then, his face became very ugly. Because he knew that maybe they had been fooled again this time.
"Damn, this is a trap. The Germany people are just pretending to attack Caribbean Sea. In fact, their target is Newfoundland. Prepare the car, I'm going to see Prime Minister!" David Magson ordered.
"Yes, Your Excellency." The secretary immediately went to make arrangements.
When David Magson arrived at Prime Minister's residence, Churchill was already waiting for him. Prime Minister Churchill also had unconcealable worry on his face. Obviously, he already knew about the attack on Newfoundland.
If German military attacks Caribbean Sea, Prime Minister Churchill will undoubtedly be happy to see it. In that case, the powerful Americans will fight hard against Germany, while Britain can take advantage from behind. However, if Germany attacks Newfoundland, it means that Britain will be the first target of Germany's attack. No matter what, Britain will pay a heavy price and even be destroyed directly.
"Prime Minister, I'm afraid we have been fooled again. The Germany people's attack on the Caribbean Sea is just a cover. Their real target is Newfoundland!" David Magson's face was gloomy.
"Is the news confirmed?" Prime Minister Churchill asked.
"Prime Minister, it should be confirmed. The news we just received is that the Germany people have begun to land. Our troops in Trepassey were unable to withstand the attack of the Germany people. The entire Trepassey has fallen into the hands of the Germany people." David Magson said.
Suddenly, Prime Minister Churchill's face became even more ugly. The extravagant hopes I had in my heart were completely shattered.
"Come here, summon Cabinet's important ministers and important military generals immediately to discuss countermeasures!" Churchill ordered.
"Yes, Prime Minister." The secretary replied.
"In addition, report this news to United States. At this time, we need their support!" Prime Minister Churchill said.
If Germany really wants to attack them first, then they have to find a way to get support from United States. It is obviously impossible to stop the Germany people's attack by relying solely on their own strength.
"Yes, Prime Minister."
When Britain reported the news to United States, it also caused an uproar on United States.
United States Army Chief of Staff General Marshall After hearing the news, a trace of regret flashed across his face. They actually fell into the trap of the Germany people once again and deployed their main force to the south. But now, Germany people have logged in under Newfoundland. It is clear that he wants to defeat Britain first, and then go south from Canada to directly attack United States!
Also regretful are the generals of the US Army. Especially those generals who advocated reinforcements for the Caribbean Sea.
Even President Roosevelt was stunned after learning the news.
