Chapter 123 Difficult choices

Early in the morning, Japanese troops launched a fierce attack on Scranton, catching the United States off guard.

When Hu Bin learned the news, it was already 8 o'clock in the morning. At this time, Hu Bin was having breakfast, and Patton walked in from outside in a hurry.

"General Patton is here. I haven't had breakfast. If not, let's go together!" Hu Bin saw Patton coming over and said with a smile.

"General Hu, something is wrong. Japanese troops are attacking Scranton!" Patton said anxiously, but Hu Bin didn't fully understand, so he looked at the translator next to him.

"General Patton said that Japanese troops are attacking Scranton." The translator next to him spoke.

"Oh, what's the matter with attacking a place? Hasn't Japan been attacking all the time?" Hu Bin felt a little sad when he heard it, but his expression had not changed, pretending not to know the importance of Scranton.

"No, General Hu, Scranton is the middle connection between our first and second lines of defense. The Japanese troops captured this place, and it can be said that they were heading for the second line of defense.

Most of our second defense forces are recruits, and they cannot stop Japan's attack at all. Now we don't know how many troops Japan has invested there, and now our air force cannot take off, so there is no way to detect it. Now we, Washington, is ready to retreat." Patton said to Hu Bin.

"Hmm?" Hu Bin heard it and looked at Patton.

"General Hu, I hope you can dispatch your troops in the barracks to fight on the Western Front. This is a telegram from our General Marshall and President Roosevelt. I hope you can order your troops to the Western Front as soon as possible to help us defend the defense line!" Patton looked at Hu Bin and said anxiously, handing a telegram in his hand.

Hu Bin took the telegram in confusion. The telegram was in English, so Hu Bin gave the telegram to his translator, and he continued to eat there.

"Dear General Hu, this morning, the Japanese troops suddenly attacked us Scranton. Scranton, as the front station of our second line of defense, was almost unable to withstand it,

The second line of defense is all recruits, and they are not opponents of Japanese troops at all. In addition, Japan is probably coming to us, so if they attack us one point, we will all fall.

We all fall, it doesn't matter. We are worried that the entire Eastern Front will soon enter the passive. On the Eastern Front, we have more than 1.4 million veterans and more than 20,000 new recruits. These new recruits have not completed training. We are worried that we will be captured by the Japanese troops, so that our last defensive force will be gone.

I hope General Hu can dispatch troops as soon as possible and attack on the western front. US President Roosevelt and US 6th Army Commander-in-Chief Marshall." The translator behind him took the telegram to Hu Bin and nodded when he heard it.

"General Hu, the situation is urgent now. Please be sure to dispatch troops. The Western Front is our last hope for the United States. There are a large number of new recruits there. If these new recruits are completely wiped out by the United States, our United States will have no troops and will not beat Japanese troops at all." Patton looked at Hu Bin anxiously and said.

Hu Bin heard this, nodded and looked at Patton and asked. "The troops in the military camp are all infantry units. How long does it take for them to go to the Eastern Front?"

"Ah, we have trains, we have trains! We can take them over by train." Patton said.

"The train is useless. As long as it is sunny, Japan will definitely dispatch bombers. The bomber railways, especially the railway bridges, will not let us reinforce this way, nor do they want your troops around Washington to retreat. I know Japan too well. The purpose of this attack in Japan is to completely disintegrate your troops on the Eastern Front and then disintegrate your entire American defensive forces!" Hu Bin shook his head and said.

"What?" Barton's translation was stunned and immediately broke out in cold sweat.

What should I do? General Hu, please be sure to help. There are more than 10,000 troops and tens of millions of people over us. Please be sure to dispatch troops!" Patton looked at Hu Bin in great anxiety.

"There is only one way to help, that is, you have to take over my defense line, and you have to defend it. General Patton, I want to ask, can your troops defend the current defense line? Japan has about 50,000 troops on the Western Front, and there are more than 10,000 troops behind. How many troops do you have on the Western Front, and how many days can you train well?" Hu Bin looked at Patton and asked.

"It's over!" Patton sat weakly on the chair opposite Hu Bin. He knew what Hu Bin meant. If he wanted to save the East Line, the West Line might be lost. If he wanted to defend the West Line, the East Line would be over.

"General Patton, it's not that I won't help. You can think of a solution to help! Go and reply to your president and commander and ask them to come up with a plan!" Hu Bin said to Patton. Patton heard it and nodded. He also knew that this was the only way to do it now.

Soon Patton left and left in a hurry.

"Tele to Xiang Feng and Ding Wanzhong, let them deal with the Japanese as soon as possible. There may be actions in the next few days!" Hu Bin said to Mo She not far away.

"Yes!" Mo She heard it and left immediately.

"Brother Bin, didn't you say that?" Huang Wenjin looked at Hu Bin and asked.

"Deploy troops from our side to the Eastern Front, at least half a month or half a month. If Japan has not completed their strategy, it will be meaningless to drag it. In addition, I don't know how to mobilize the United States now, so make preparations first!" Hu Bin said to Huang Wenjin.

"Yes, half a month is enough for the Japanese to kill a lot of people!" Huang Wenjin heard it and nodded.

"I'm going to send us the military camp telegram, prepare for the dispatch, and put all the supplies in place!" Hu Bin said to a senior staff officer beside him.

"Yes!" the senior adviser nodded.

"Brother Bin, are you going to dispatch the military camp troops? Didn't you just say that you won't send out?" Huang Wenjin said to Hu Bin.

"Well, it's not OK to not go out. Move it first." Hu Bin nodded and said,

Now he was also calculating. He didn't know what the raid in Japan was like, and whether he could quickly complete the things he was expecting. Hu Bin was calculating in his mind how long it would take to calculate the Japanese side.

At this time, at the US Presidential Palace, the entire Presidential Palace was very busy. The staff were loading the vehicle information documents. These information documents must be taken away and cannot be put into the hands of the Japanese.

"Report, General Patton's telegram!" A secretary came over with a telegram and said to Roosevelt. At this time, the members of the cabinet and the main leaders of the upper and lower houses were all in Roosevelt's office. Roosevelt took the telegram and looked carefully.

"Damn it!" Roosevelt cursed after reading the telegram.

"What? Chinese troops are unwilling to help?" A cabinet member looked at Roosevelt and asked.

"No, they are willing to help, but we don't know what to choose!" Roosevelt said with a shake of his head.

"What's the bad choice?" The others looked at Roosevelt, not knowing what Roosevelt meant.

"You see!" Roosevelt said and handed the telegram to a person beside him, and then asked the secretary next to him: "Commander Marshall has also received this telegram. Call and ask, what exactly do they want to do this. We need Hu Bin's troops now!"

"Yes!" The secretary heard it and immediately went out.

At this time, the officials began to worry when they saw Patton's telegram. Patton said it very clearly in the telegram. Hu Bin's troops were transferred away. What should we do if the defense of the Western Front? At that time, the Japanese troops will attack the Western Front again, and the Western Front will not be able to defend at all.

On both sides of the east and west, they could only guard one place. After all, Hu Bin had so many troops, and his troops could not guard both places.

"Damn it, what should I do? But what should I do!" Those officials are anxious now, both east and west, according to the current situation, they must give up one direction.

"Report, General Marshall said that he will come to us right away!" The secretary who had just left came in and said to Roosevelt.

"Okay!" Roosevelt nodded.

"The Eastern Front is very dangerous. Our troops have no way to encircle Japanese troops. We are all recruits. They are not even familiar with weapons. How can they fight? Send them over and die.

The troops sent by Japan this time are all elite troops. The armored troops alone have more than 2ooo armored vehicles, and our armored vehicles are not enough. It is impossible to completely delay this army. Also, even if Hu Bin's troops come, we will have to wait for more than half a month. By then, the Eastern Front may be over." An aide looked at Roosevelt and said.

"Yes, if it doesn't work, just let Hu Bin guard the Western Front. Let's retreat to the Western Front!" The other officials heard it and nodded and said.

"But there are more than ten thousand people on our Eastern Front. If we give up, most of the people will be massacred by Japan. Can we give up?" Some cabinet officials disagreed and gave up tens of millions of people, and there are also those big cities on the East Coast. The strength of the United States will decline very significantly by then.
