Napoleon II Reborn

Chapter 476 Intelligence, Guess

"What the **** is going on? Damn the director of the intelligence agency, why haven't you got the exact information yet." US President Adams roared in the White House office. In front of him, Secretary of State Brandon and Chief of Staff of the US Army Zominsk stood in front of him silently.

"What the **** are the French trying to do? Are they really strong enough to finish one big fight and start another without a break?" Adams said. If that's the case, then France is too powerful. It seems that France was underestimated before.

"Your Excellency, the actions of the French this time are completely beyond our expectations. According to our initial expectations, after the end of the European war, France should rest for at least one to two years. If that is the case, then Our deployment is complete. At that time, our strength will definitely be stronger than France, and if Canada is added, even if we cannot defeat France, we should remain invincible." Zominsk said very annoyed. France's actions this time completely disrupted the plans of the United States.

"However, General Zominsk. The facts are right in front of our eyes. The French have increased their troops on the west coast of Europe. French warships are also beginning to gather. A large number of French transport ships and merchant ships have gathered on the west coast of Europe. By then, Our entire defense of the island chain in the eastern part of the North Atlantic will be attacked by the French. That will definitely be a disaster for us." Adams said with some horror. Now the U.S. military is not fully ready, although they have deployed hundreds of thousands of troops in Iceland, the Faroe Islands and the island of Ireland. However, in view of the gap in combat effectiveness between American soldiers and French soldiers, the U.S. Department of Defense estimated that the U.S. and Canada should maintain at least 600,000 to 800,000 troops deployed on the island chain in the eastern North Atlantic. It is possible to resist the attack of the French army. Of course, if they want to control the sea power, then they need to put all the navy on it. But this is clearly unrealistic. Therefore, at the beginning, the strategy set by the United States and Canada was that even if the navy loses in the eastern Atlantic, the army must persevere until the United States and Canadian navies regain control of the sea. So, for this purpose. The United States and Canada not only have to deploy a large number of troops and store a large amount of materials on these islands. Some arsenals have to be built so that they can continue to resist after the transportation line is cut off by France.

"Your Excellency, the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, General Clark, asks to see you." Adams' secretary came and reported.

"Let him in." Adams said angrily. He was trying to trouble Clark, why did France make such a big move this time, and the United States didn't even get any news before. This fully shows that Clark, the intelligence chief, is incompetent.

"Your Excellency President, Your Excellency Brandon, and Your Excellency Zominsk, hello everyone." Clark greeted everyone as soon as he entered.

"Clark, what happened to you? Why didn't you get any news before?" Zominsk first asked. When Adams reprimanded him, he didn't dare to resist, and he had already suppressed his anger. Now that Clark came, he finally found a punching bag.

"I'm really sorry, it was our negligence. However, France's move this time is really beyond our expectations, and their confidentiality work is very good, so we didn't get any news before." Clark Admit your mistakes right away. When he came here, he had already thought about it. If he wanted to keep his position this time, this was the only way he could do it. Otherwise, if one of these big shots is unhappy, he will have to pack up and leave.

Seeing that Clark didn't resist at all, Zominsk was so angry that he didn't know where to send it. He had to say resentfully: "As the chief of intelligence, you should be vigilant at all times. A crisis may happen at any time."

"Your Excellency Clark, what information did you bring this time? I very much hope that the information you brought this time is very useful. Otherwise, I don't mind letting you change positions." Adams had a threatening tone Said.

"Your Excellency, please rest assured. The information I brought this time is absolutely useful. In order to obtain this information, I have made great efforts. There is a female intelligence officer who even sacrificed her own body. In the end, after going through thousands of years It was hard work to get this information." When Clark said this, he seemed to be moved by the spirit of those intelligence personnel, and almost burst into tears.

However, Adams and others did not buy it. "Okay, okay. Don't talk about these useless things. Let's talk about that information." Adams said.

"It's like this. According to the information we have received, the French have assembled a total of about 500,000 troops on the western coast of Europe. Together with the garrison on the Isle of Wight and other troops, the number of troops assembled by France this time has reached 700,000. Among them, The French 3rd Army is deployed in Norway. According to our speculation, their attack direction will be Iceland. The French 89th Army also sent an infantry division with a scale of more than 40,000 people, deployed in the north of the Netherlands. The direction of their attack should be It is the Faroe Islands. In Calais, it is the focus of the deployment of the French army. They deployed two entire armies, including the French 5th Army and the Iberian 2nd Army. Among them, the French 5th Army is a newly formed army , the combat effectiveness is not very strong. In addition, in the Normandy Peninsula of France, the French deployed the elite French 89th Army. After our speculation, the main force of the French attack will be Calais and the Normandy Peninsula. They will start from these two Set off from one place, with the cooperation of the Isle of Wight garrison, they quickly defeated Britain and then went to war with us. As for what the British will choose, I am very worried that under the strong pressure of France, they will directly choose to surrender or neutralize. And allow France to pass Their territory. In this way, their offensive goal is very obvious. The French must want to take the island of Ireland. Disintegrate our island chain." Clark analyzed.

It has to be said that his analysis is still reasonable. As a result, Adams and Brandon, two people with little military experience, nodded their heads. As for Zominsk, the chief of staff, although he felt that something was wrong, he couldn't find a place to refute it.

"Send a report to General Davis. Ask him to pay close attention to the movements of the French army and be ready to resist the invasion of the French army at any time." Adams said. "In addition, order the navy to strengthen its defenses and be ready to provide support to the army at any time."

And at this time, on the island of Ireland. The U.S. Army and the Canadian Army have already become busy regiments. All vacations are cancelled. All troops are on maximum alert. Although Davis didn't know why France chose to attack the US military at this time, he knew that if the French army attacked, Ireland would undoubtedly become the primary target of the opponent's attack.

On the island of Ireland, a total of 350,000 troops are now stationed. Among them, there are 120,000 Canadian troops and 230,000 American troops. As the supreme commander of the entire eastern North Atlantic defense line, Davis also placed his headquarters here.

After the news that the French army was about to launch an offensive reached Davis, he had already begun preparations. Ireland is undoubtedly his key deployment area. In Ireland, in addition to the US and Canadian forces, there is another force, the Irish Republic Army. Under the oppression of the United States and Canada, the Irish army is not large, only about 100,000. But considering that if the war breaks out and the United States and Canada cannot win the war in a short period of time, the war will inevitably fall into a stalemate. At this time, according to Davis' estimation, their connection with the country must have been cut off long ago. At that time, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com they will not be able to replenish troops. And the Irish army will be a very good cannon fodder. Therefore, Davis asked Ireland to expand its military. But the Irish government is no fool. In the past, they desperately wanted to expand the army, but the United States and Canada simply did not allow it. Now that I have difficulties, I think of them again. They won't be fooled, because, in the hearts of all Irish people, France is extremely powerful, and being an enemy to them is no different from courting death.

While the United States and areas such as Ireland are in a mess, South America is somewhat calm. Cavenster, the supreme commander of the United States in South America, felt that something was wrong. Why did the French make such a big move just as he was preparing to encircle and suppress the French army entrenched in northern South America. His intuition told him that there must be a huge conspiracy in it.

After the U.S. Intelligence Agency determined that France would launch an attack on the island chain established by the United States and Canada in the eastern North Atlantic, the U.S. General Staff issued an order for Cavenster to stop all military operations. If anything goes wrong in the battle on the front line, reinforcements must be dispatched from South America.

This made Cavenster very dissatisfied. At the same time, it made his regret even deeper. He sent his thoughts to Washington. However, no reply was received. Because Zominsk thought he was venting his dissatisfaction, he glanced at his telegram and threw the telegram near the trash can.
