Chapter 1498: No reinforcements

Phillips didn't feel much when the bullet swept across the row of people lying behind the stone. This refreshing sweep of the ground was stimulating every cell in him. He knew it was very enjoyable, but that was all.
He didn't know that his machine gun bullets swept away an American major general and killed the commander of the 1st Marine Division.
Reykjavik.
The sun has set, and the entire Reykjavik is plunged into darkness.
United States Command in Iceland.
There were a lot of bloodshot eyes in Lieutenant General Alexander's eyes. He kept smoking and the whole room became smoky.
"In other words, in one day, the Germans successfully landed in Iceland. They wiped out our entire Marine Division 1 and at the same time, they also approached our Icelandic capital."
Only one day, from morning to night, passed like this. Who would have thought that the situation on this day would have deteriorated so severely!
This is the first head-on battle between the United States and Germany, and the United States has already been defeated.
"We must have reinforcements. We want to defend the city and drive the Germans into the sea. It is absolutely not enough to have our 3rd Marine Division." Beside him, Sledge, the commander of the 3rd Marine Division. Said the major general.
In the daytime, after receiving the news that the 1st Marine Division was surrounded, they wanted to go out for rescue, but did not act.
If the 1st Marine Division cannot break through with its own ability, then their rescue will be of no use. It will only consume their troops in vain. Now, they have to guard in Reykjavík. They Relying on the city, carry out street fighting!
It's a pity that the power of just one of their divisions is absolutely not enough. They don't have heavy weapons or effective anti-tank weapons. For them, fighting is death.
They need reinforcements.
Hearing what he said, Lieutenant General Alexander stomped anxiously: "Until now, the White House has still not responded to us."
Lieutenant General Alexander had faintly guessed something.
There will be no reinforcements.
The reason is also very simple. The United States now uses all its major forces to deal with island countries, and it is not ready to fight the Germans at all.
If there are too few reinforcements, the air transport fleet must be used. This will inevitably be intercepted by the German Navy. In the blank period when a large number of US Navy ships are still under construction and not in service , The United States is even struggling to deal with island countries, and has no ability to deal with the Germans.
In this way, if the United States sends a transport ship, it will only be sunk by Germany. If the United States mobilizes the main navy, what will happen to the Pacific?
In fact, even if the United States wants to make a transfer now, it is too late, because the ship will arrive in three or five days at the fastest. If it comes from the remote United States, one week will not be enough. During this time, the entire Iceland will be inserted. It's up to the German 4D flag. Time is too late.
What's more, after losing Iceland, the United States also owns Greenland.
After Denmark was conquered by Germany, the United States immediately occupied Greenland and took over Greenland. Compared with the vast land of Greenland, Iceland is too small. After weighing the pros and cons, the White House might have given up to save Iceland. Plan.
The White House gave up, but couldn't say it, so they didn't reply at all, and watched Iceland fall into German hands?
"No, we can't just give up like this." Major General Sledge said: "We can launch the citizens of Reykjavik to resist the German invasion with us. Yes, we will go to the Prime Minister of Iceland and ask him to launch it. people."
Hearing what Major General Sledge said, Lieutenant General Alexander just smiled bitterly.
Asking the Prime Minister of Iceland for help? Think about how you came here. The Prime Minister of Iceland was like being strengthened. At this time, maybe people are cheering and waiting for the Germans to come!
Prime Minister's Office.
"The Germans have reached the outskirts of the city." The head of the Icelandic National Police Force Ena-Anades told Iceland's Prime Minister Herman Jonathan: "The Americans' powerful Marine Division 1 has only spent one day. The whole army is wiped out."
"In other words, Iceland has fallen under German rule and it is already unchangeable." Hermann said: "Tonight, maybe our capital will have a catastrophe."
Indeed, the gods fought and hurt the people. Iceland does not have an army, only a police force. Now there are only 70 people. The total population of Iceland is only 120,000, which is definitely the most cowardly character.
The British came, and Iceland had to be occupied by the British. For Iceland, this was a shame.
After all, from the history of Iceland, the British played the role of invaders.
Iceland has a cold climate, but there are a lot of abundant fish resources in the surrounding seas. The cost of fishing is low, but it is rich in protein, which is almost an important economic source of Iceland.
Due to the geographical location, the British often came to the waters of Iceland to fish. Even in later generations, after World War II, Iceland also fought the British in the "cod war" for more than 20 years.
Although it was only a small-scale conflict, it also demonstrated the hatred between Iceland and the British.
Now, Iceland is reluctant to be controlled by the British, and has no good feelings about the Americans who succeeded Britain. In later generations, when Germany announced its surrender, the rest of Europe was full of joy, but there was a conflict between local people and British sailors in Iceland. Apart from leaving a large number of illegitimate children, the British and American soldiers had no other contribution to Iceland.
However, if it falls under the rule of the Germans ~EbookFREE.me~, what good will it do for Iceland?
It doesn't seem to be good either.
At this moment, there was a loud noise outside.
"No, you can't go in, the prime minister has already rested." The captain of the guard's voice came from outside, followed by the sound of the bolt pulling.
The two looked at each other and looked at the door. They saw an American major general who opened the door and walked in.
"Mr. Prime Minister, I have come to you for help." Major General Sledge said: "Iceland is at its most dangerous time. The men in Iceland must be mobilized to resist the German invasion."
He said he came to ask for help, but his attitude is definitely a command tone. A major general can yell at the Prime Minister of Iceland.
Hearing Sledge's words made Herman a straight face.
If you are stationed in Iceland, forget it. Now, why do you want Icelanders to participate in your war? Icelanders will never bleed for this war, it has nothing to do with Iceland!
