The Rise of the Third Reich
Chapter 1126 Death of Roosevelt 11
Eastern Time, the morning of September 18, the White House.
"Mr. President, the motorcade is ready and ready to leave at any time."
U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt was sitting in a wheelchair facing the window. He seemed not to have heard the words of Colonel Cotton, the presidential adjutant, and just stared out the window at the protesting crowd on Pennsylvania Avenue.
Ever since Mussolini, the Roman Caesar who truly loved the American people and his black brothers, visited the United States for the first time, protesting crowds have often gathered on Pennsylvania Avenue in front of the White House. Usually supporters of the Bolshevik Party, not many in number. At the same time, there will be supporters of the American National Fascist Party coming to oppose them.
But today was an exception. The number of protesters gathered on Pennsylvania Avenue surged to more than 100,000! And there was no National Fascist Party eagle to be seen.
President Roosevelt knew what this meant?
Because just yesterday morning, he was in the Cabinet Room of the White House with the leader of the American Republican Party Hoover (former President Hoover, leader of the conservative Republican Party), the Republican presidential candidate Dewey, the Democratic Congressional leader Alben Buckley, the Democratic presidential candidate Truman, National Fascist Party presidential candidate Lindbergh, and Bolshevik Party presidential candidate Foster held a frank meeting.
During the meeting, Roosevelt informed everyone of his intention to end the war during his term, pay huge war reparations to Germany, and give up some of his interests in Australia, New Zealand and South America. At the same time, he also told them about the huge difficulties currently facing the United States, and finally asked for their support.
These leading figures in American politics did not appear too surprised after hearing Roosevelt's decision and request. But he left the White House in a hurry without giving any reply.
As a result, Pennsylvania Avenue outside the White House was full of protestors today!
The purpose of people's protests is not to oppose fascism, but to oppose "selling out American interests"! No one disagrees with achieving peace with Europe, but the prerequisite for peace must be "no ceding of territory" and "no reparations", and we must adhere to the line of the Monroe Doctrine - America for Americans!
But now only "no ceding of territory" is achievable. No reparations are a dream, and the American America is also unrealistic.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, the United States must never accept this kind of peace that "humiliates the country" and should resist to the end.
Moreover, the United States also has the capital to resist, because the United States has a vast land, a large population, developed industry, and rich resources, and can fight a protracted war with Europe. Europe, which had just experienced the devastation of a world war, was devastated, people's livelihoods were in ruins, and the people were on the verge of breaking out. It was impossible for them to support a long war. Therefore, as long as the United States persists in fighting, it can drag Europe and Germany into bankruptcy!
This is a view put forward by Foster, the presidential candidate of the Bolshevik Party in the United States, during the election campaign, and it has also been endorsed by many American politicians, including the confused former President Hoover and the Vice President who parted ways because of their different political views with Roosevelt. President John Nance Garner.
Even Lindbergh, leader of the pro-German National Fascist Party in the United States, opposed the payment of up to 500 billion euros in reparations and a complete withdrawal from South America. In Lindbergh's view, the Americas should be the sphere of influence of the United States, and there is absolutely no possibility of ceding it!
Of course, these people may not be really confused. After all, this is an election year, and most politicians have become various candidates, which will definitely cater to voters.
Although the United States was at war, there were not many attacks on its homeland, and the casualties (soldiers and civilians) were not large. They were mainly caused by the despicable and shameless Japanese devils. Therefore, most American voters still do not know the power of the Nazis, and naturally they are not willing to accept a "humiliating" peace.
Even in the eyes of a considerable number of people, the state of war has brought unprecedented prosperity to the U.S. economy. The war brought huge demand, full employment and rising wages, making the United States in a super boom cycle.
If such a war continues for a long time, it seems to have no disadvantage to the United States. Therefore, the one that will be brought down in the end will undoubtedly be the European Community, which has not yet been truly united.
To break the illusion that "war = prosperity" and "persistence = victory", the American people who don't know the truth must have a taste of the power of the Germans.
That's why Roosevelt resolutely launched long-range air strikes on Ireland and Iceland. In the past few days, thirty or forty long-range modified B-29 long-range bombers visited Ireland and Iceland under the cover of night every day, dropping dozens of tons of high-explosive bombs (at a cost of twenty Many B-29s did not return), but the Germans had no response?
Don’t they still have missiles that can hit the east coast of the United States? If that were the case, it would be a miscalculation.
Thinking of this, Roosevelt shook his head, turned to Colonel Cotton and said: "Colonel, let's go, don't let Roman Caesar wait for us at Union Station."
…
"Sir, the M10 radar station reported that an unidentified aircraft was spotted flying towards Boston, about 110 kilometers away from downtown Boston."
Just when President Roosevelt went to Washington Union Station to greet the visiting Mussolini, he was in the North American Northeast Army Air Forces Command Building in the Back Bay District of Boston, across the Charles River from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Lieutenant General Mad Harmon, commander of the Army Aviation Corps, was dealing with an alarm incident.
"A plane?" Lieutenant General Harmon looked very calm. "Can it be identified? What's the height? What's the speed?"
"Unrecognizable, altitude about 3000, speed... 900-1000 km/h."
"What? 900-1000 kilometers per hour?" Lieutenant General Harmon raised his head and looked at the staff officer who was as surprised as him, "Is it wrong? How can it be so fast?"
"That's what the M10 radar station reported." The staff officer frowned and said, "Maybe... maybe it's a German missile!"
"Missiles?" Lieutenant General Harmon suddenly became nervous. "Have you notified the fighter command and air defense command?"
"It has been notified. The Fighter Command said that there are now 12 P51s and 8 P47s on duty over Massachusetts. They have sent 4 of the P47s to intercept. But..."
Before the staff officer finished speaking, the rumble of artillery and a piercing scream like the roar of a locomotive suddenly rang out.
What is this sound?
Lieutenant General Harmon immediately stood up and walked to the open window and looked in the direction of the sound. He only saw a black, strange aircraft with short wings and a fire-breathing tail flying through the air at an extremely fast speed. . There were also clouds of black smoke exploding behind its butt, which was obviously the explosion of a missed anti-aircraft shell.
Suddenly, just when the screaming reached its peak, this annoying sound suddenly stopped. Looking at the missile in the air, I don't know when it has changed its navigation direction. It is no longer flying forward, but with its head downward, "falling" at a very small angle toward the Charles River and the campus of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Just a few seconds later, the strange aircraft slammed into the ground, and then there was a loud sound that shook the earth, followed by fireballs and smoke rising from the ground.
"God, this is... a missile?" Lieutenant General Harmon stared blankly at the plume of smoke rising from the MIT campus not far away. Before he could fully react, another staff officer rushed in.
"General, the M11 radar station reported the discovery of an unidentified flying object, traveling very fast, about 900-1000 kilometers..."
This time the missile came faster. Before the staff officer's report was over, a shrieking sound that was more piercing than before could be heard from far to near.
The interception of P47 and P51 has still not been successful, with speeds of more than 900 kilometers per hour (the design speed of the Reaper 1B missile is 900 kilometers per hour, but in actual use, due to fuel consumption at the end of the missile's flight, the weight of the missile body is reduced. The thrust has not decreased, so the speed is even faster, almost reaching a high speed of 950-1000 km/h.
Such high speed makes it very difficult to intercept the piston engine. The only way is to predict its flight direction in advance and then seize a favorable position to conduct a one-time dive attack.
However, this kind of dive interception is extremely difficult, and it is simply impossible for US pilots who encounter the Reaper 1B missile for the first time to complete it.
As for the anti-aircraft guns on the ground, they cannot hit targets with speeds as high as 950 kilometers per hour - 1000 kilometers per hour.
At present, the only thing in Boston that can defend against such high-speed flying missiles is probably a relatively small number of air defense balloons.
A few seconds later, there was another loud and earth-shaking noise. This time, the missile hit the business district near the Boston Library. The missile happened to hit the three-story department store, first hitting the roof. A big hole was made, and then the floors on the 3rd and 2nd floors were drilled, and there was a big explosion in the lobby on the 1st floor!
But this was only the beginning of the Boston disaster. Starting at 3 pm on September 20, 1944 (Eastern Time), downtown Boston would be attacked by a Reaper 2B missile every one or two minutes. The attack lasted until 4:10 pm. A total of 18 Reaper 2B missiles landed in downtown Boston and the nearby city of Cambridge (where Harvard University is located), 10 of which landed on the road, garden or campus ( (both MIT and Harvard were bombed), eight other missiles hit the building, causing serious damage to eight houses and great panic...
