Although the Pacific War failed to achieve a complete victory, the success of the peace talks still allowed the United States to concentrate all its forces to fight Germany, and at the same time compete with the Soviet Union for Europe. However, because Germany still had strength at this time, the U.S. military still chose to open up the situation in Southern Europe.
Since the German army had to retain enough troops to prevent the Allies from landing in France, it was able to send them to the Iberian Peninsula and Italy.
The limited number of troops, coupled with the decline in oil and steel production, caused the mechanization of the German army to begin to regress, seriously affecting its combat effectiveness. In the end, it could not stop the Americans, who had strong troops and many subordinates. However, under the tenacious resistance of the German army,
When the Allied forces crossed the Pyrenees Mountains and headed north to France, it was already August 1950...
At this time, the manpower of the United States and Germany was on the verge of depletion. However, the United States had a large population after all, and it also had many juniors to provide cannon fodder. Therefore, after millions of people died (including about 400,000 US troops)
, the U.S. military still needs to get ahead of the winter this year.
It reached the city walls of Paris. During this period, the two countries also used the old method to throw some atomic bombs at each other. However, because the United States' atomic bomb output was more than three times greater than that of Germany, and the killing effect of air-dropped atomic bombs was much better than that of nuclear torpedoes (Note 1), the nuclear
The damage caused by the strike was much greater for Germany than for the United States.
As the front line was retreating steadily, more and more people opposed Mustache in Germany. In addition, the US and British governments also launched a propaganda campaign stating that as long as Mustache was still the head of state of Germany, they would never negotiate peace with the German government, which further aroused the situation in Germany.
Anti-Greek people are determined to remove them.
In December 1950, Mustache was assassinated. Although he was lucky to escape temporarily, the generals in the army who were completely disappointed with him took advantage of the chaos to launch a mutiny, and the generals who were still loyal to Mustache were equally dissatisfied.
The result was a civil war, which brought unprecedented trauma and pain to the German people.
In line with the idea of "taking advantage of his illness to kill him.", the Soviet Union and the Balkan coalition took the opportunity to launch a fierce attack on the Eastern Front. The shaken German army collapsed across the board. After the Soviet Union's steel torrent broke through the defense line, it quickly took advantage of its mobility and surged all the way.
Rush forward to get ahead of the Allied forces' actions
Not long ago, they captured East Prussia, the birthplace of modern Germany, and soon surrounded Berlin, the German capital. Under the fierce attack by Soviet officers and soldiers regardless of sacrifice, Berlin, which had become an isolated city, finally fell, and Mustache was also in despair.
Died by suicide...
At this time, the Allied Supreme Command issued an order for a full-scale offensive to the frontline troops, but it was still a step too late. They had just liberated the three Low Countries and a small piece of land in southwestern Germany. Other German territories had already been
They were all occupied by the Soviets. The young soldiers of the US military may also be very brave. But in the harsh environment of ice and snow, their combat effectiveness is far from being comparable to that of the Soviet army.
All the territory was occupied, and the Germans could not surrender even if they did not want to. The official surrender ceremony was already in mid-February 1951. Although the Allied forces fought hard in various battlefields after the outbreak of World War II, because of this
Time and space China rises ahead of schedule
And became a troublemaker that was deeply hated by the world's powers. The Second World War, which ended in 1945, actually lasted until 1951. Naturally, the damage and losses caused to countries around the world were greater than in history.
Much bigger...
According to rough statistics from governments after the war, if we look at the Spanish Civil War (the Chinese government hopes to use the "July 7th Incident" as the starting point of World War II, but Western countries cannot deny that the Anti-Japanese War is an important part of World War II due to their "Western-centered" ideas).
part of the Spanish Civil War
(set as the starting point of World War II), during World War II, more than 120 million people died in the world, and the total military expenditure reached 2.6 trillion U.S. dollars. If the property losses during the war are also included, it was close to 6 trillion U.S. dollars.
And indirect economic losses are even more difficult to calculate...
As in history, the country that suffered the most losses during World War II in this time and space was the Soviet Union, and both the data and the actual situation fully reflect that the Soviet Union was much more severely damaged than in history. Not only did more than 40 million soldiers and civilians die (history was
around 26.6 million) and no less than 500 billion US dollars (historically 2000
billions of dollars) of direct economic losses, and also lost tens of millions of square kilometers of territory in the East. At first glance, it seems that it has completely lost the possibility of becoming a superpower. But if the Soviet Union could fully absorb the three Nordic countries it annexed during the war
, its development potential will not be inferior to that in history, although this is not easy to do...
Although the absolute value of the losses is definitely the largest, compared with the increase in losses in history, the Soviet Union is relatively small. The United States, which has successfully become a fisherman in history, has not been able to pick up any advantages in this time and space. Military and civilian deaths (including "disappearance"
") The total number exceeds 7.2 million (historically it was more than 400,000. In addition, the number of immigrants who poured into the United States during World War II during this time and space was much less than the same period in history.
3 million, these are all high-quality people who are of great benefit to the post-war development of the United States.), the direct economic loss exceeds 1 trillion US dollars (historically, it is 350 billion US dollars), and if it is placed on any other country, the heavy price
Even though it was the rhythm of national subjugation, after the war, the United States still undisputedly became the only superpower in the world, and its abundant capital is amazing.
The other two countries with huge increases in losses are the United Kingdom and France. The former lost nearly 6.5 million people (less than 400,000 in history) and direct economic losses of more than 500 billion U.S. dollars (historically 150 billion U.S. dollars). The latter suffered losses
It killed more than 5.8 million people (less than 600,000 in history) and caused direct economic losses of more than 300 billion US dollars. Other countries with huge losses include the Arab Federation (more than 8 million people died), the Balkan Federation (deaths)
The death toll was close to 7 million), Spain (the death toll was no less than 6 million), etc. Germany and Japan, the two most important members of the Axis Powers, suffered particularly heavy losses. The former lost nearly 9 million soldiers and civilians, and its direct economic losses reached more than 800 billion.
US dollars (historically US$300 billion), and the latter’s death toll was as high as about 7 million, with direct economic losses of no less than US$300 billion (historically US$100 billion)...
Note 1: Although the probability of being intercepted is much higher, with the depletion of Germany's reserve pilot resources and the continuous improvement of the performance of American jet aircraft, Germany's domestic air supremacy has been shaky, which has greatly increased the success rate of Americans' air-dropping atomic bombs.
