Balloons are so easy to deal with. Just use a fighter to fire a few shots at it, and a few bullets can be solved. If you have to talk about the problem, it is just how to discover it. After all, this thing is at an altitude of ten thousand meters.

In short, since the existence of this weapon has been discovered, it is certain that it can be found a solution. Roosevelt does not need to give instructions on any details, just mention macro-level processing.

To soothe your emotions, don't cause panic, and at the same time blind the islanders and make them think that these balloons are useless. This is Roosevelt's countermeasure.

Some small balloons are not worth Roosevelt’s worrying too much. Now for Roosevelt, the most important thing is still the showdown with Germany. If you solve Midway, you will solve the troubles on your back. Just concentrate on dealing with the Germans!

"Our intelligence system observed that the Germans were planning a large military operation recently, code-named Operation Ice," Donovan said to Roosevelt.

"Is the information true?" Roosevelt's question had a deep meaning.

Donovan was in charge of all the military intelligence. Every time he thought he had found exactly what he needed, he was taken into the ditch by the Germans. Donovan always suffered a loss when he fought with Reinhart, a young guy.

Now, the president's questioning with suspicion made Donovan's face turn red in an instant: "Mr. President, if the information is still wrong this time, then transfer me away and send me to the battlefield."

You can't always suffer losses, right? Donovan is already very careful. If the information is wrong this time, then you might as well go to the front line to be a suicide squad, and there is no need to do any information.

"You know," said Roosevelt. "Tell me."

"There are our guesses below," Donovan continued.

"Wait, where is your information?" Roosevelt asked. He had just said a few words, and the following is a guess?

"Our intelligence is Operation Ice," Donovan said. "So far, we can only determine the name of this intelligence."

After a long time of work, the information was just an ice operation? Roosevelt frowned. Only by knowing oneself and an enemy can one win every battle. Although Roosevelt had never learned Sun Tzu's Art of War, he also knew this truth. Now he was blinded and knew nothing!

"Tell me." After waiting for a few minutes, Roosevelt recovered and spoke to Donovan.

"We think that the Germans are about to land in Greenland and then use Greenland as a springboard to attack Canada. We must strengthen the defense in the north," Donovan said.

Donovan’s inferences cannot be called inferences. These days, in the White House, research is being conducted every day. What are the strategic goals of the Germans?

After everyone's unanimous judgment, Douglingland is the most convenient and effective.

Greenland, next to Iceland, the German planes took off from Iceland and the warships set off from Iceland, just like walking at their doorstep. Greenland is cold and there are no too many soldiers stationed. If the Germans attack in large numbers, they can definitely conquer Greenland.

In this way, with Greenland as a springboard, you can continue to fight Canada. After landing in Canada, the German army can stage a scene in Europe.

In the past, they just inferred that when the Germans occupied Iceland, the plan seemed to be getting closer and closer. Now, Donovan has received exact information called Operation Ice.

Where is the ice cube? Of course it is Greenland! So, after getting this name, Donovan knew that the next step for the Germans would definitely be to occupy Greenland.

The Germans traveled to Canada, so even if the Atlantic Defense Line that was hard-working in the United States has lost its effect, thinking of this, everyone present was so angry that they said: "Our Atlantic Defense Line!"

"It's not possible to rely solely on the defense line." Roosevelt was very open-minded. It was simply whimsical to expect that project to block the Germans. Just look at Europe.

It is an important purpose to make a shell through that project, so much money flows to places where they are really needed.

"Now is a good opportunity." Arnold, a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said: "Didn't we always look forward to destroying the German Navy? Now, the opportunity to hit the German Navy has arrived!"

Greenland is not that easy to conquer. In the past, Iceland was caught off guard because the United States did not notice it. Now, it will definitely not make the previous mistakes.

The United States has also gained experience. Although Midway was eventually occupied by the islanders in the last Battle of Midway, it sank the main fleet of the island country. When its own bomber formations appeared with special bombs, it was quite effective to strike their surface ships.

The tactics of the last time can be repeated this time!

The US Navy suffered heavy losses, but the Army Air Force has been expanding. Since we know the Germans' next goal, we can definitely achieve our goal.

"No, the Germans are quite vigilant, their naval formation is also very strong, and they have enough land-based long-range fighters. If we directly dispatch bombers, we will definitely suffer heavy losses." At this moment, Marshall, who was standing by, raised an objection.

If an attack on island countries is successful, it will not work against Germany. The two are not the same order of magnitude at all. Before the American bombers flew, a large number of German fighters would definitely be intercepting them.

You cannot despise the enemy. This is a lesson learned from blood and life. Whoever despises the Germans will die miserably.

At the beginning, Nimitz proposed to deploy a large number of fighter jets in Greenland. When the Germans came to attack the Germans, they would attack the Germans. What happened? The German bombers came first and blew up the air base in Greenland. It was cold and frozen. It has not been repaired yet. If you want to support, you can only take off from the nearby local Canadian base.

"Yes, even if we take off and bomb before the German navy arrives, we will fail because the other party is too vigilant." Arnold is good at summarizing, and some recent experience has proved the Germans' vigilance: "If we want to successfully attack, we can only wait for them to land in Greenland and attack when they return."

After logging in, when these words were said, everyone present was stunned. If the Germans were allowed to land on Greenland, it would be great? The entire Greenland will become the territory of the Germans, and then use this as a springboard?

If Greenland is lost, the United States will face a direct threat, with typical cold lips and teeth.

Now, Arnold said that there is hope only if he gave up Greenland, which is unacceptable.

"No, absolutely not. Anti-landing operations must be blocked on the beach. If the enemy lands, there is almost no hope of winning." Nimitz said.

This is the simplest truth. You can't even defend a beach. When the most elite German infantry came up, you still hope to push the enemy back into the sea?

"Can we stop it?" Arnold asked back.
