"General, the shelling by Germany people has stopped." The secretary reported to General Marshall.
General Marshall nodded. "Prepare the car and go White House immediately."
"Yes, General." The secretary immediately went to make arrangements.
Five minutes later, General Marshall left Army General Staff in a Jeep, and headed for White House under the protection of several Jeep and Truck.
Washington The roads in the city have become pitted, filled with craters and scattered building debris. The once bustling and wide streets have now completely changed. There were no civilians on the streets, and occasionally soldiers in a hurry would pass by. From the faces of these soldiers, General Marshall can clearly see their numbness and despair. Obviously, everyone is completely desperate for this war.
Ten minutes later, the motorcade arrived at White House. At this time, White House has also been completely destroyed. The building became dilapidated, with ruins everywhere.
Seeing this situation, General Marshall felt very sad. What was once a world-class power has become like this now?
After checking the identity, General Marshall, led by White House staff, entered the basement of White House. President Roosevelt works here now. Although the environment is completely incomparable to before, it is better than safety. At least, even if the Germany people used heavy bombs to dive bomb White House, they were not able to destroy it, let alone threaten the safety of President Roosevelt.
"Your Excellency, President!" General Marshall saluted President Roosevelt.
Although many people believe that the reason why United States ended up in such a situation is entirely because President Roosevelt took a wrong path. However, General Marshall never thinks so. He still has great respect and admiration for President Roosevelt. He always believed that the reason why President Roosevelt made that choice was entirely for the interests of Republic of America. And the current failure is not President Roosevelt's fault. It's entirely because their enemies are too powerful. Otherwise, Republic of America would not be what it is now. In fact, they are very likely to defeat their enemies and become the new world overlords.
Of course, now United States has lost, so badly that they have no other choice but to admit defeat.
"General Marshall, please sit down!" President Roosevelt said.
Now President Roosevelt looks older, with sunken eye sockets, heavy eye bags, and even more wrinkles on his face. Now President Roosevelt is not yet sixty years old. However, he looks like he is seventy years old. As the president, the pressure on his shoulders is very high. Especially when the US military continues to fail, the country and nation are very likely to perish, which further increases the pressure on his shoulders.
"Yes, Your Excellency, President." General Marshall sat on the sofa.
After the secretary brought him a cup of coffee, he closed the door and left the office.
"General Marshall, do you have anything to say? I think you don't have to worry about anything in front of me, you can speak freely." President Roosevelt said.
"Your Excellency, the army can't fight anymore." General Marshall hesitated for a moment, and then said bravely.
President Roosevelt was obviously stunned for a moment, but then nodded.
"I can understand. Our army was once again defeated by the Germany people, and the losses of the troops were also very heavy. Under such circumstances, there is really no way to persist." President Roosevelt said.
"Your Excellency, German military is too powerful. In the previous tank battle, we lost our main force Armored Forces. At the same time, the morale of the troops completely fell to the bottom. Under such circumstances, our troops no longer have the courage to fight against the Germany people. Now, it is very common for soldiers to surrender, even There has been a situation where the entire formation has surrendered. One Infantry Division has surrendered to the Germany people. Even if we send Gendarmerie to the front, it will have no effect. If this continues, I am afraid that all the troops will be lost due to surrender." General Marshall said.
President Roosevelt nodded, he also knew that the current situation was very serious. However, General Marshall's words made him understand the situation of the army better. This was obviously more serious than he expected!
"Alas! I was the one who harmed United States! If I hadn't used military industry to stimulate economic development, maybe United States wouldn't have reached this point." President Roosevelt sighed. If he had known that this would lead United States to destruction, perhaps he would not have made such a choice in the first place. However, there is no regret medicine in the world. It's too late to regret now.
"No, Mr. President. Everything you have done is for Republic of America. Without your original decision, United States would not have been able to get out of the economic crisis so quickly. Although we have failed now, this is mainly because the enemy is too powerful. Otherwise, we would have defeated the Germany people and become the new world overlord." General Marshall said.
President Roosevelt smiled bitterly, "Failure is failure, there is no excuse. I am the president of Republic of America, so the responsibility for failure should naturally be borne by me."
General Marshall still wanted to persuade, but after opening his mouth, nothing came out.
"Find your Excellency Secretary of State, the Minister of War, Secretary of the Navy and the other Cabinet Ministers." President Roosevelt picked up the phone on the desk and ordered the secretary outside the door.
Then, President Roosevelt hung up the phone.
"We have completely lost this battle and can no longer fight. Then, next we have no choice but to beg for peace from the Germany people. I hope the Germany people will not kill us all this time!" President Roosevelt said.
However, even President Roosevelt himself does not believe that Germany people will be kind to United States. Because that's almost impossible. They all know very well that even if United States will not challenge Germany's world Hegemonic Status in this battle, Germany will not let United States go. Who made United States pose a threat to Hegemonic Status, the world of Germany? In order for the German Empire's hegemony to be stable, Germany must get rid of United States. Unless United States can defeat Germany in the war, United States will only be destroyed.
"I hope God can bless Republic of America!" General Marshall also said.
Indeed, they seem to have no other choice but to pray to God.
