New Staff of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Zhu Erdian and Ri Zhiyi returned to the capital and hurriedly sent telegrams to the country. The intelligence agencies of the two countries took action and started an investigation into the United States, which they had ignored. The results surprised them. The United States has already expanded its military, and it has been a long time. It has been almost a year, and the military has basically taken shape. Now it is conducting tactical research, and at the same time, it has a new understanding of the American fleet.

The Imperial Conference was held in Japan. It was already two months after the United States took control of Qingdao. They kept arguing. Some people said they would give up, but they gave up in the end because the military strength of the two sides was not enough. Proportionally, the army can ignore the law, but the navy can't. A King Kong-class battlecruiser has no chance of winning, especially since they don't know the parameters of the main battleship of the US Navy.

All the islands occupied by Germany in the Pacific Ocean fell into the hands of the United States, and they could not be returned. The U.S. plans to return Qingdao after the war. This was Wesley's suggestion.

The Mariana Islands and the Caroline Islands became American territory, which made the Japanese themselves very uncomfortable. They were surrounded, but they did not have the slightest way to do it. Not to mention the gap between the fleets, the United Kingdom alone opposed them and The United States went to war. After the United Kingdom understood the strength of the United States, it began to send people to the United States, hoping to win the United States to participate in the war, but the effect was not at all. The United States is now completely desperate for money.

After the start of World War I, the first battle of the Marne River ended, the long World War I began, and the United States began to sell materials on both sides, and a large amount of material resources went to Europe continuously, but the factories in the United States did not blindly produce, but It is the distribution system adopted, which is distributed by the state, and the training of the army is still continuing. At the same time, an army of 50 infantry divisions is formed again, and the special arms brigades are still under construction.

Wesley officially became a major general and brigade commander, specializing in training the Marine Corps, forming four brigades again, and the Navy's army began large-scale construction of destroyers and light cruisers, the two types of ships that are currently most in demand.

It is planned to build 120 destroyers and 80 light cruisers, which will be completed in two years. And the heavy cruiser plans to build 8, the battleship 8, these will become the main force of the Atlantic fleet, and there will be no construction plans in World War I.

This is a two-year task load, and there are also many auxiliary ships including troop transport ships, medical ships, landing ships and landing craft. Wesley's business empire has developed directly and has become the largest consortium in the United States, and only belongs to one people.

The eight-hour workday, the system of resting on Sundays was implemented, and the employment of child labor was stopped, but the American economy began to develop rapidly, and everyone saw the benefits, especially the big capital groups more like the current model.

Two years is an extremely long time for Europe. The war between the Allies and the Entente has been tug-of-war, the death toll on both sides has risen directly, and both sides are trying their best to endure.

From July 28, 1914 to the end of 1616, during the more than two years of war, the United States made a lot of money, and at the same time, the goods entered the Chinese market. No matter how chaotic China was, the American goods still entered, and the products were of good quality and low price. Commodities caused a great impact on Japan's products, and Japan did not use a single soldier in World War I, which made Britain very dissatisfied.

Wesley came to Washington again, "Mr. Major, we have rarely seen each other in the past two years, but I have been missing you." Mr. President said, "This time I asked you to come, mainly to ask if we need to join in?"

"Come on, we can join next year, but we will get very little. Britain will inevitably unite with France and Russia to suppress us after the war."

"I understand this too, but now it seems that we have gotten a lot, especially a large number of Pacific islands. Under your suggestion, we have already prepared to build some forward bases, but this needs to be done after the war, after all Economic development also needs persistence.”

"Mr. President's decision is very wise, which is inevitable. The economic transformation after the war is very important. Although we have always controlled domestic production, there will inevitably be some vacancies after the war, but we have opened up the Chinese market, which is also very important. , plus domestic construction, I think it will be stable soon.”

"Then we decided to participate in the European war next year and end this battle as soon as possible. According to your idea, you are going to participate in the European war, so when do you want to go?" the president asked.

"I want to go to the first group, first look at the form of the front line, our soldiers will not be cannon fodder for the British and the French."

"That's right, so I'm going to let you lead the first expedition, what do you think?"

"I'm just a major general, Mr. President."

"You don't need to worry about this. The first batch are all division commanders and brigade commanders with the rank of major general, and you need a war to prove yourself Wesley."

"Okay, Mr. President, then I'll go with the troops?"

"Fifty divisions, ten heavy artillery brigades, and five engineer brigades, what do you think?"

"I need four more marine brigades."

"No problem, you choose these troops. If you can use these people to complete this European war, then you will become a lieutenant general."

"Then I say goodbye."

Wesley left the President's Office, and as soon as he went out, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. This was unusual. Even if Wesley needed to prove himself, he could just go out with his Marine Brigade, but now If he actually wanted him to go directly to the first batch of expeditionary troops, then the problem would be big.

First of all, the issue of his age was that he came here in 1912. At that time, the body he occupied was only 18 years old. Now he is only 22 years old, and he will be 23 years old next year. At this age, he will become a major general and command fifty divisions, plus nearly twenty brigades. How many major generals and brigadiers are there? Are they willing to obey themselves?

Secondly, in Britain and France, will the generals there treat themselves as a side dish? It seems that some people want to do something to themselves, but they dare not say it clearly, and choose to do it secretly. Once Wesley has a problem and the US military suffers heavy losses, then the military court has made its own decision, and the time will come. It is hard to say how to judge.

Sure enough, they are all white-eyed wolves. They made the United States develop so well, but these guys are still jumping out. It seems that the nature of capitalists is just like that, and I will slowly clean up you in the future.

Wesley did not refuse. He wanted to stand in a higher position and implement his plan, so he was not afraid of this.

Time was running out, Wesley began to mobilize the troops, he directly selected the first fifty infantry divisions, which were the ones with the longest training time, and then let them start to assemble, and at the same time ordered the low-cost transport ships, and returned to the group. William Benson, who came to the country, asked for the command of the expedition fleet.
