ps: I am preparing to move recently, so I ran out to see the house. I came back very late, delaying the update. Sorry, there is another update later at night. Thank you for your support!

The shocking changes in the direction of Argentina shocked everyone. The rise and fall of rabbits in half a month was overwhelming, and it had the same effect as the "Ten Days that Shocked the World" of the Russian October Revolution.

An emergency telegram like snowflakes poured into the Oval Office of the White House, urgently demanding a re-examination and evaluation of the situation in South America. If it were merely a military change, Roosevelt might still grit his teeth and persevere, but now the pressure from political, economic, military and diplomatic forces is coming together, and he cannot ignore it anyway. In particular, Argentina's nationalization policy has hit the roots of major U.S. consortiums, which evaporated at least $200 million out of thin air (including the UK may exceed 100 million).

Others' crying Roosevelt could ignore it, but he could not ignore the pressure exerted by the top figures of major consortiums and members of Congress who depended on these consortiums. What's more, Secretary Hull, who helped him make up his mind at the beginning, has now changed his tone and talked about the importance of South America to the United States. He even pointed out that after the "Monroeism" that had not been so serious invasion of European forces, this argument almost made Roosevelt feel the urge to vomit old blood.

In this case, General Kim ordered the "small moves" of the squadron with Iowa and West Virginia as the main force, which made people turn a blind eye. Many people even praised the navy for its quick response and avoided the loss of power in vain. You must know that there are quite a lot of main forces in the Axis fleet coming to South America this time, and it is almost the essence.

The axial fleet led by Mashar includes three parts: the shelling formation, the aircraft carrier formation and the transport formation, among which the aircraft carrier fleet is the core of the entire force. The formation has a total of three regular aircraft carriers, namely the Zeppelin, the Skyhawk and the Harrier. After partially introducing the B-9 carrier-based aircraft with folding wings, the overall regular combat aircraft exceeded 200, while the pilots equipped on it exceeded 320, reaching a high proportion of 1.6:1.

The auxiliary aircraft carrier is the Elbe River, which is rebuilt with the Potsdam cruise ship. It has been optimized for the use experience of Europa. After completion, the overall displacement exceeds 25,000 tons. The stance looks larger than the Skyhawk and Harrier. The deck can be equipped with near-mounted carrier-based aircraft and 18 Ar-372. However, except for the complete take-off and landing capabilities of water reconnaissance, the other aircraft have not been as long as Europa's main deck length. Only fighter aircraft can take off smoothly. Unless they reach the rear of the deck, they cannot take off with heavy attack aircraft, and the release speed is slow.

However, the importance of auxiliary aircraft carriers is that they can carry infantry and light mechanized troops to launch attacks. They are an amateur amphibious assault ship. In the German Navy, its name has been changed to a comprehensive aircraft carrier. Similar to the Beyern, the German Navy also has a semi-finished aircraft carrier named Xiafei, which was originally a regular aircraft carrier, but the French design was really whimsical. Even if it was completed on schedule, it was a waste product. It was very suitable to convert it into an auxiliary aircraft carrier. Especially after not having to arrange complex hangars and lifting systems, its completion efficiency has a qualitative flight, and will be completed in December according to the schedule.

The artillery formation is divided into two echelons of reconnaissance and firepower. The core of the reconnaissance echelon is Strasbourg and Gneisenau. The core of the firepower echelon is four Italian Venetto-class battleships, controlled by the German army. The newly built Imperial is also on its line. In addition, the Tirpitz. The battleship of Richelieu, which was damaged by the Caribbean Battle, was left in Italy for repair. In addition to overhaul, the Schanehorst will also undergo the same main gun as Gneisenau. The caliber of the ship gun will change from 283mm to 38m.

It is said that it is the distinction between reconnaissance and firepower. In fact, the battleships of the firepower echelon are not slow. Both the Tilpitz and the Venetto class can run out of the quarter. The slowest mid-range of the entire artillery formation is the German pocket battleship, which can only run out of 26 kilometers.

Anyone who has been in contact with the navy can see at a glance that this is like a robbery fleet full of Clippers. Germany and Italy have brought the characteristics of coming and going like the wind in the tactics of breaking the enemy to the extreme.

Of course, the disadvantages of the Venetto class are also very obvious, and the endurance is insufficient. Compared with the Japanese and American battleships with a range of 8,9,000 nautical miles, the Italian battleship, which has always been based on the Mediterranean, has a cruising capacity of only 4 ooo, so that when carrying fuel, the journey from Madagascar to Madagascar was carried out in the middle of the journey. Therefore, the more than 20,000 tons of fuel left by the British on Madagascar (almost all heavy oil for ships) made Maschar overjoyed. These cute British people only had time to blow up a few gasoline tanks. The air fuel was stored in them, and the aviation fuel fleet was not short of.

Of course, there are some other situations that Mashar did not expect. After he seized the Ma Island, he also received information about the Battle of Tarava from Japan and the United States. After learning that the US Pacific Fleet aircraft carriers were all killed by the Japanese army, he was very happy, which means that the pressure he was under would be greatly reduced, and at least there would be no risk of attacking on both sides in the short term.

When the Japanese side learned that the German army occupied the Cambridge Island, they were even more excited: the cut-off of the South American route means that the Pacific Fleet will not be replenished by the main ships. If the US military wants to attack in the Pacific, at least they have to wait for them to destroy the German and Italian fleets. Japan has completely calm time to arrange it, and has enough time to promote the second phase of the Indian strategy. At the same time, Argentina was in a state of great reshuffle, the second batch of Indian dispatched troops had arrived in India to join Yamashita Fengmoto.

On one hand, there were the Japanese army that continued to increase troops, and on the other hand, the British and Indian army that had been cut off from outside, Mountbatten fell into despair.

In the Oval Office, Roosevelt held a secret meeting and it was not easy for a politician to publicly admit his mistakes in front of his subordinates. However, Roosevelt did not reserve in front of these confidants and sincerely talked about his own concerns: "I didn't expect such a major change in Argentina. I miscalculated the last decision. I was in the meeting today and wanted to hear what corrections or opinions you have for the evening."

Hearing the president say this, everyone's expressions were different. The most obvious ones were that Hull and Donovan's old faces were flushed. The former swore that a unified Europe had the greatest threat, but he was forced to change his words in two days. The latter went to Brazil to make arrangements in person, but not only returned in vain, but his eyeliner and the person he was looking for were uprooted by the Peron authorities. What's worse is that all the exchanges and telegrams between the United States and local forces were seized. The United States' attempt to interfere in Argentina's internal affairs were completely exposed, causing a sensation in the local public opinion... (To be continued.)8
