do you know? Congress is already dissatisfied with the current progress of the war. They don't understand how much it will cost us to move forward under the current circumstances. Every inch of our position has our blood. They don't understand that war is not just finger-drawing on a map or a sand table. They can sit in the office and accuse them of the mistakes they think, and push all the problems on us. The reliability of the military theory of the United States of America has been questioned, and the United States’ move to rebuild its majesty has also been severely set back. "Pershing said.

"Therefore, we must change everything, because this is not the same as the presidential election. This government will not work. The next government will change the political party to come to power. I can say responsibly. At least for now, there is nothing in the entire U.S. Army. My team has a better choice! We must come up with a way." Pershing emphasized finally.

　　 "The United States never seems to have established any military majesty..." Marshall suddenly came out of his mind, is the US navy and army really useless since the founding of the nation? Naturally not, at least when fighting Indians and Mexicans, the U.S. Army performed well. Of course, the reason is not how strong it is, but how good its opponents are. On the sea, there are also meritorious battleships such as the "Old Iron Armor", but in general they are definitely not good. After all, if the United States is really able to fight, the White House will not appear, nor will the U.S. Navy shipyards in the Great Lakes region of North America. Let the British burn!

The role of the First World War for the United States in history was not only to defeat the Allies, but also to build the United States' military confidence. Any major country that wants to rise must not only be economic, industrial, and technological, but must also be established in the military. Build up your own confidence and majesty! From ancient times to recent times, it is not so! Although generally speaking, the performance of the United States can only be regarded as mediocre, but after all, it has been recognized by other major countries.

And on this plane, the Americans still want to lay the foundation of their military power through a war. The only difference from history is that this time, the Americans found the Japanese and decided to use a limited war to think. The world declares itself strong! However, judging from the current situation, the effect is very bad.

Of course, in the eyes of true military experts, the Americans’ performance is not very good, but at least it is qualified. After all, the size of the US Army was even the same as Belgium’s two years ago. Now, it can be carried out thousands of miles away. A large-scale landing operation against a regional power, the level of mobilization is quite good. On the battlefield, the Americans can be considered good. After all, the situation is so bad, even if it is replaced by the British and French troops, it may not be much stronger, but this kind of purely military praise is still limited in enhancing the United States' international status.

"In addition to political problems, I am worried that if we continue to consume like this, our army will have more problems." Pershing knew that in addition to political considerations, the U.S. Army also has serious military problems. This time, He was going to give Marshall an answer.

"Although, we can use as much supplies as possible to maintain morale. Although, we can use tons of artillery shells to suppress the opponent. Maintain the offensive on the battlefield. But you know that the morale of an army and the emotions of officers and soldiers are the most important positive. What is the factor?" Pershing asked.

"It's victory. Only victory is the best booster for officers and soldiers! Even if there are abundant supplies and the best possible conditions, if our army finds that they cannot make progress in their day-to-day battles, then the long war will eventually It will drag down their confidence. Maybe after a while, they don’t think about winning the war, but treating the battle as a mess. When it expires, they leave here, and then another group will come in Europe. During the Great War, the soldiers of the Allies and the Allies had this tendency." Marshall said.

"Yes, from the perspective of morale, we must use a clean victory to let the officers and soldiers realize that we have the hope of victory in this war and that there is a tangible victory to boost morale. Therefore, we must Complete the goal of this battle within days!" Pershing said.

　　 "Your Excellency Admiral, is this all your original intention for starting this battle?" Marshall asked.

"No, not all, we had five divisions fighting on this island before, and this time, we have prepared two additional divisions as backup forces that are staying at sea. So, this time, we have concentrated a total of seven The force of the division carried out an all-round attack on this island with an area of ​​only a few thousand square kilometers. Not only the vital hilly area in front of us, but also the high platform in the west of the island is also the direction of our attack~lightnovelpub.net ~ Pershing said.

"In fact, there is no need. After all, the high plateau area in the west is too far away from the main battlefield. Even if you want to destroy the Japanese airfield in the western plateau area, you can set it as the target of the next battle. There is no need to be in a battle. Set two goals? If we don’t attack the western high platform, the fire support intensity we need can be reduced by at least 30%."

Marshall actually did not understand the plan made by Pershing before. After all, the core area of ​​the two sides was the eastern part of the island, and they suddenly fell into the main battlefield and opened a separate battlefield that will take a long time to be effective. This is both for troops and supplies. Causes pressure, so he previously suggested implementing this plan step by step. However, Pershing did not adopt it. As an excellent chief of staff, Marshall naturally knew that if the other party disagrees, then he can only formulate a battle plan according to the chief officer's will.

"I asked engineers and technicians. They said that although the terrain in the western region is steep, there are also areas where transportation channels can be rebuilt. As long as we can ensure that these areas are occupied, the engineering troops can quickly build airports. Although this project will take time, But if it can be built, it will have a huge impact on the battle situation. We know this, and the Japanese army knows this too. As long as we can get the first large-scale field airport in New Ireland, whether it is the Japanese maritime supply or the so-called Air supremacy will be fatally hit. At that time, there may be a stalemate on the battlefield, but unless the Japanese army completely destroys the air base we built, it will only be a matter of time before we win the island!" Pershing said.
