2880 Dominoes 1

Finally, when the intelligence on Christmas Island was proven to be more accurate, the Americans' maritime transportation system gradually appeared in the eyes of the British and Japanese navies. They could already have the ability to intercept a certain transport fleet more accurately, and the rest was accurate primary and select suitable prey!

Just as Britain and Japan picked up the long sword in their hands and looked at the American blood vessels and considered where to start to let their opponents leave more blood, the big men in Washington did not realize that the abnormality came from the Japanese Navy's counterattack was about to begin! At this time, they were still immersed in the army's offensive on the island of New Guinea, while the Japanese Navy was still huddled in the joy of the distant Philippines. On the surface, the Americans did have the advantage in the Pacific War at this time, and the Americans who lacked experience in war also had reason to believe that the future war pattern would develop according to their vision.

Do you think it is a bit strange? In order to deal with this war, the Americans have done as perfectly as possible at the tactical level, but at the strategic level, the Americans are a little overconfident, or arrogant, and may be more accurate. Is this sense of contradiction between conflicts surprising?

How do you say this problem? In fact, from the perspective of rational analysis, when a person or a group formulates a very complex and reasonable plan, and this plan makes things develop rapidly in the direction they imagine, it will produce a kind of carrying or blind optimism. There are many things in the world that have a very good start, but in the end it causes a collapse due to certain problems.

Things are not constant. Although a good plan can eliminate as many adverse factors as possible before it happens, it is not absolute after all. Otherwise, why are the plans often adjusted in battles? For Americans, after underestimating the wisdom tempered by the British through wars and after a smooth move in the previous period, it is naturally normal for them to develop a blind optimistic mood. For example, in history, the bearded man won a big victory in the early stage of the Barbarossa plan. The mentality of the Americans is very similar.

Therefore, Roosevelt, who thought he had freed up his hands, also set his target in other directions. The American bald eagle not only stared at the Pacific Ocean, but also at other areas of the world. Compared with the current smooth Pacific War, the Americans' layout in the Middle East seemed to be a bit bad. Because the large-scale civil war in Turkey that the Americans were expecting never started. Even though the Americans gave Zemal Pasha a lot of support, they still did not declare war on Sudan. There seemed to be a special balance between the Sudan and Pasha. The two maintained their rule in their respective control areas, and at the same time, they adopted a policy of mutual cooperation when dealing with the enemies of the Arabian Peninsula, which was unexpected and absolutely unacceptable to the Americans!

If Turkey does not fight a civil war, how can the Americans achieve the fragmented goal of bombing Turkey? If Turkey does not fight a civil war, the Americans will eventually pull Persia into their own camp? And if Persia cannot stand on its own side, how can the United States establish a stable channel to connect with Russia? This is all a problem! Therefore, in the view of Old Roosevelt, the Turkish civil war must break out as soon as possible!

"There are many reasons for the failure to realize the plan. The Arab offensive naturally led to the temporary suppression of disputes and unanimous external factors within the Turks. But more importantly, since the Sudan received military assistance from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, he has become much more confident. The army in Zemalpasha has no advantage, so they have hesitated a little more. Judging from the current situation, the Germans do not seem to completely abandon Turkey. They always maintain a balance within the two sides and then wait for the opportunity." Taft said.

"How are the Germans' military preparations in the Balkans?" Old Roosevelt said with a frown.

"The Balkans are the control of the Kingdom of Bavaria and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Here, Berlin has almost no interference. At the same time, Berlin has shown no signs of communicating related matters with Bavaria recently, but the Prussian army has no movement, which does not mean that Bavaria is ignoring. General Von Seckert, who served in the Bavarian Legion a few months ago, went to the Balkans. His mission was to unify the two armies there. Judging from the news we have received, he seems to have completed the relevant work. In the Mediterranean, the movements of the Austro-Hungarian Navy are also questionable. Just half a month ago, almost all the main battleships entered the ship for repairs, which may be to prepare for future actions." An officer said.

"I knew it would be like this! I knew that our old opponent would not give up on Turkey, and he must be preparing for something." Old Roosevelt said angrily after hearing this. His mental excitement surprised his followers, but only the person who knows the best knows the reason, because in the 20-year-old Roosevelt's interactions and confrontation with the crown prince, the president of the United States of America has never surpassed even once! Only the person involved will truly understand the feeling of a archenemy.

"I know what he is thinking. He is balancing the internal conflicts within Turkey to consider the most rewarding one from the two, and then he will use the overwhelming military force of Bavaria to kill the other one and then turn the entire Turkey into his own vassal. His legion is already ready, compared to the Sultan and Zemalpasha who are considering when and at what price to lose to the crown prince?" said Roosevelt. "We can't let them do this, we must destroy it!"

"His Excellency President, it is impossible for us to take military actions against the Germans in the far Far East under the current circumstances. This is a very dangerous thing." At this moment, even Taft, who was extremely hating Germany, could not stand it.

"What? Directly hostile to the Germans? Have I said this?" Roosevelt said with a smile: "The Bavarian Legion is not afraid of any armed forces in Turkey, so it is impossible to make the other party surrender through military means. But Bavaria ultimately wants a Turkey that is obedient and can continuously provide benefits for it, rather than a Turkey that is messy and broken into pieces, not only cannot provide benefits, but also requires Bavaria to constantly transfusion blood!"
