"Your Excellency, I am very sorry that we failed your expectations." Minister Frank Knox said with his head down.

  Suddenly, President Roosevelt's face quickly turned pale. Although before the start of this naval battle, he had expected that there might be such a result. However, after learning that they really lost, they still couldn't accept such a result.

   "How could this be? Isn't our chance of winning great? Why do we still lose?" President Roosevelt asked.

  Before the naval battle started, the naval generals told him that the US and British fleets had a great advantage in this naval battle. The chances of winning will be very high. This also gave President Roosevelt a glimmer of expectation. He hopes that the Navy can win this battle. In that case, they will be able to gain more room for maneuver.

   Now, the Navy has lost. This immediately put the United States in the most difficult situation.

   "Your Excellency, the Navy made a fatal mistake in this naval battle..." Admiral Harold Stark reported to President Roosevelt, and he reported the battlefield to President Roosevelt in detail.

  President Roosevelt was completely speechless: "Perhaps, this is God's will! Even God is now on the side of the Germans."

"Your Excellency, after this naval battle, the navy has already existed in name only. In this naval battle, we lost all our aircraft carriers, and only three battleships of the 'Iowa class' remained as capital ships. Cruisers and destroyers, It also suffered heavy losses. The situation of the British is no better than ours. They also only have four "Hood-class" battlecruisers left. The entire Atlantic has completely fallen into the control of the Germans Hit." Admiral Harold Stark continued.

   There is no doubt that in this naval battle, the U.S. Navy and the British Navy have lost nothing. After this naval battle, I am afraid that both navies will be devastated. If there is enough time, with its strong industrial strength, there may be a day to revive its glory. But sadly, they simply don't have enough time. The Germans, will not give them time to redevelop the navy.

  President Roosevelt's expression became even uglier. He knew what kind of difficulties the entire United States would face next after the navy failed. Next, the Germans are likely to directly attack the continental United States.

   "The Germans have completely occupied the Bermuda Islands. Now they have completely seized the command of the Atlantic Ocean. So, their attack on our mainland seems to be imminent?" President Roosevelt said.

   "Yes, Your Excellency. It is estimated that the German landing operations are imminent." Admiral Harold Stark said.

   "Come on, get General Marshall and General Arnold!" President Roosevelt ordered.

  In the event of a complete failure of the navy, the defense of the United States can only rely on the army and the army air force.

   Soon, Admiral Marshall and Henry Arnold arrived at President Roosevelt's office. The two of them had obviously heard the news of the complete defeat of the navy, and their faces were also very ugly.

  In these years, the United States has invested huge resources and financial resources in order to develop the navy. Now, the navy has failed. This directly put huge pressure on the army and the army air force!

   "The navy suffered heavy losses, but what about the Germans? Did they suffer large losses?" Admiral Marshall couldn't help asking. After all, the U.S. Navy and the British Navy lost so much. Especially when they had an advantage and paid such a big loss, the Germans had no reason why the loss would be so small!

Admiral Harold Stark flashed embarrassment and anger on his face: "Four German capital ships were sunk, and three other capital ships were severely damaged. Some cruisers and destroyers were also sunk. The carrier-based aircraft On the one hand, the Germans have lost a lot."

  After hearing this answer, Admiral Marshall didn't know what to say. The U.S. Navy and the British Navy lost so much, but they only got the result of the sinking of four battleships of the German Navy and the heavy damage of three battleships of the German Navy. As for the losses of cruisers and destroyers, they were insignificant at all. The Germans can easily make up for the loss of carrier-based aircraft.

"General Marshall, General Arnold. The German navy has won this naval battle, so they don't have to worry about anything else. It is expected that the Germans will launch a landing operation on North America soon. We must Just be prepared." President Roosevelt said with a serious face.

   Admiral Marshall and Admiral Arnold nodded.

   "Your Excellency, it will be winter soon. Will the Germans launch a landing operation in winter? Such weather may not be suitable for landing operations." Admiral Marshall said.

"Even if the Germans don't launch a landing operation in winter, at least they will launch a landing operation next spring. At that time, we will have to face the powerful German army and air force. If we lose again, the consequences will be disastrous ’ said President Roosevelt.

  The expressions of several generals are very serious, and they are also very clear that there is only one way before the United States, and that is to use the army to resist the German attack. Even after the German army landed on a large scale, relying on the Army and the Army Air Force to defeat the Germans in one fell swoop. Only in this way, the Germans may give up the destruction of the United States and be able to strive for a decent peace. Otherwise, the United States will most likely cease to exist.

"General Marshall, General Arnold. Next, your mission is very heavy. However, the hope of the country rests on your shoulders. I hope that you can win a crucial victory for the American Republic in future wars." An important victory. After all, it is a matter of life and death for the American Republic!" President Roosevelt continued.

   "Yes, Your Excellency the President." Admiral Marshall and Admiral Arnold replied.

  At this moment, they also felt the great responsibility. But can they really defeat the Germans in the war? No doubt it was very difficult. The German navy is already very powerful, but the reputation of the German army is greater than that of the German navy. They have directly tore up the huge Russia with the torrent of steel. Could the United States hold off a German attack? Almost everyone does not have the confidence to win.
