"Land in Newfoundland, and then use Newfoundland as a bridgehead to land in Canada. After defeating Canada, launch an attack on the United States. This is a good plan. But, will the Americans be unprepared?" Qin Tian finished reading After the landing plan submitted by the army, navy and air force, they raised their own questions.

"Your Majesty, the Americans will indeed be prepared. However, no matter which direction we launch the landing operation, the Americans will be prepared. At that time, it will be inevitable to fight the Americans head-on. As long as we can land in Newfoundland If the island has a firm foothold, then we have nothing to be afraid of. At that time, we will still have the upper hand if we fight directly with the Americans." Marshal Manstein said.

"The island of Newfoundland covers an area of ​​110,000 square kilometers. We can build a large number of airfields on the coastal plain. Then use these airfields as bases to launch strategic bombings on American industrial areas, directly weakening the United States' war potential." Air Force Secretary Al Field Marshal Bert Kesselring said.

Qin Tian nodded. If the Luftwaffe could start from Newfoundland, it would indeed be possible to include the entire industrial center of gravity of the United States within the strike radius. As long as the industrial area is destroyed, the Americans will have no way to fight against Germany. They can't even produce weapons and equipment. They can't take their lives to fight Germany, can they? Even if he worked so hard, the final result would be to seek his own death.

"Your Majesty, according to the information we have, the British did not deploy many troops in Newfoundland. Originally, they only had one infantry division in Newfoundland. Now, they have only increased to three infantry divisions, fifty thousand It is just the strength of the rest of the people. Moreover, the combat effectiveness will not be much higher. As long as the landing goes smoothly, we will be able to completely take Newfoundland within a week. At that time, even if the Americans and British want to rescue, they will not It's that easy. In winter in North America, transportation will be greatly affected. We can even take this opportunity to launch a landing on the Nova Scotia peninsula. In that case, we can really gain a foothold in North America That's it," Marshal Manstein continued.

Qin Tian knew that the leaders of the army, navy and air force had already reached a consensus on this issue. And a detailed plan has been drawn up.

"Then, are the odds high?" Qin Tian asked.

"Your Majesty, if everything goes well, there will be no problem with our success." Marshal Manstein said.

"Well, let's implement according to your plan!" Qin Tian chose to support.

Afterwards, the deputy chief of staff, Admiral Küchler, introduced the entire landing plan to Qin Tian.

In this landing operation, the three major fleets of the navy will set off to provide various support for the landing force. Even the local fleet, although the capital ship formation suffered heavy losses, the three severely damaged capital ships would not be able to participate in the battle for a while. But the eight aircraft carriers of the aircraft carrier formation, as well as numerous cruisers and destroyers, will all participate in the battle.

Various types of warships of the navy will provide fire support for the landing force and protection at sea to prevent them from being attacked by the enemy from the sea. The carrier-based aircraft of the aircraft carrier will also provide air support for the landing force, directly bombing the British army on Newfoundland, and assisting them to quickly capture the entire Newfoundland.

The Marine Corps will be the main force for the landing on Newfoundland. There are now ten divisions in the German Marine Corps. This time on Newfoundland, the Marines would commit five divisions at once. A large number of amphibious assault ships, dock landing ships and tank landing ships will all participate in the attack to ensure that the Marine Corps can quickly win this landing operation.

Once the German Marine Corps has gained a firm foothold on Newfoundland, the German Army will begin landing on Newfoundland. Army Group A of the German Army will be the first army unit to land on Newfoundland and even North America. After they successfully landed on the Nova Scotia Peninsula, Army Group B and Army Group C will land one after another. Then use powerful armored forces to sweep the British and American troops throughout North America.

Of course, in addition to maintaining the establishment on the Russian battlefield, the three armies of the German Army will also incorporate more troops. For example, some newly formed group armies will be considered for inclusion. The armies of other German slave countries will also join the battle after the German army successfully lands in North America. In this way, Germany can successfully suppress the U.S. and British troops in terms of military strength, and at the same time control its own casualties. Get the greatest victory in this war at the least cost.

The German Air Force will also be stationed in Newfoundland for the first time. After a large number of field airports and regular airports are built, the strategic air force's long-range fighter jets and heavy bombers will also be stationed, officially centered on Newfoundland, to launch a strategic bombing of the industrial center of the United States, completely destroying the industrial strength of the United States, thus Create more favorable conditions for Germany to win the war.

Qin Tian was satisfied with the landing operation plan submitted by the army, navy and air force, and did not raise any objections.

However, he then made a suggestion.

"I think, before we officially land in Newfoundland, we can scare the Americans and make it look like we are going to land in the Caribbean with Bermuda as the center. As long as we make it more realistic, we won't be afraid that the Americans won't be fooled. At that time, our landing in Newfoundland would undoubtedly be much easier." Qin Tian said.

The marshals and generals of the German Army, Navy and Air Force could not help but shine. Although launching a deception tactic will consume a lot of resources. But if the American attention can be successfully drawn to the south, it will be very helpful to the victory of the entire landing operation. Even, it will directly increase the chance of winning.

The German Army General Staff then developed a plan of deception. And, in mid-November, the whole plan started to be implemented.

The German Navy's Atlantic Fleet and Mediterranean Fleet returned to the waters of Bermuda once again after replenishing their carrier-based aircraft. Even the German Marine Corps and Army assembled in large numbers to Bermuda. The Luftwaffe even dispatched many long-range fighter jets to the Caribbean Sea for reconnaissance. Everything seems to be preparing for landing.

Germany's move immediately attracted the attention of the United States. Even many US military generals believed that the Germans were preparing to attack the Caribbean Sea.
