Chapter 1279 On the Pacific Ocean, who controls the ups and downs

Roosevelt Tongying is legal, and no one says a word even if it is made public.

Truman Tond is definitely a crime. Once admitted to Congress, he will face continuous judicial investigation and impeachment.

Of course, Congress will definitely not pass the impeachment. Because the Republican tycoon Taft has reached an agreement with Kennedy and is preparing to use the Republican power to support the Truman administration to "treason"... And for the war to this point, it is impossible for this country to be sold!

Who will take the blame for impeachment of Truman under this situation? Vice President Kennedy most often participated in Truman's Tongde. What if he pleaded guilty and bowed down?

According to US law, the successor of the US president after the vice president is the Speaker of the House... The current Speaker of the House of Representatives is the Republican Party but the leader Joseph William Martin Jr.! Republican lawmakers will only let him pick up Truman's hot potato when their minds are in trouble. By then, the Republican president becomes the country's sinner. How can they choose the 46-year midterm election?

Moreover, the funder behind the Republican Party will not agree to let Republican Martin be president. Because once Republicans take the blame for Truman, the Republican president will sign a traitorous treaty and be criticized by Congress. At that time, the Democrats will be responsible for sing high-profile. If the Republican Party still wants the treaty to "pass", they have to establish a legal deal with the Democratic Party, and then they will not be able to abolish the new policy legislation.

So now the US Congress will not let Truman step down no matter what. Not to mention that he admits Tongde, even if he admits to being a German spy, he has to treat the president to the end... This is what he calls the president, and he has to continue crying!

But once Truman admits Tongde, he and his staff will be investigated endlessly by Congress and FBI. He is the president and has immunity to protect himself, and the people around him do not have this privilege.

In addition, Tongde is wrong after all, and he will change it if he admits it. After the change, Truman will not be able to contact Hitler. In this way, the difficulty of peaceful negotiations will increase, and the process may be slowed down due to the endless investigations of FBI.

"No." Truman thought about it for a while and said to Kennedy, "I will let the White House issue a statement and deny Tongde."

"But what if Congress holds a hearing?" Kennedy asked with some concern.

Once Congress holds a hearing, it is possible that Vice President Kennedy, Secretary of State Stettinius, and even the president themselves will testify. What should Kennedy and Stettinius do when the time comes? Do you use perjury to deceive Congress or testify and accuse the president?

If you deceive Congress, then Kennedy and Stettinius will commit crimes. If it is revealed, it may be possible to go to prison.

If the president is verified, then if Truman cannot be impeached, Kennedy and Stettinius will have to resign. They are both Truman Tunde's right-hand man. If he gets off the stage, Truman will be in trouble.

"Will Congress hold a hearing easily?" Truman thought, "The Republican Party does not want me to step down now. As long as there is no sufficient evidence, Taft and Martin will not agree to hold a hearing."

"But the President...if the FBI intervenes, I'm afraid it will find out something."

Kennedy's concerns make sense. Under Edgar Hoover, the FBI has become a daunting agency. Although it cannot be compared with the Soviet Union's People's Committee on the Internal Affairs, it is definitely more difficult than the German Central Security Administration.

This is not because the agents of the German Central Security Agency are insufficient, but because the nature of these two organizations is different. The German Central Security Agency is an espionage and counter-espionage agency and has no judicial investigation power, so it is not "independent", but must obey the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff. Therefore, it is completely legal to order the Central Security Agency to stop some reconnaissance work.

The FBI is a judicial investigative agency affiliated with the Department of Justice, so it is judicially neutral. So Truman cannot order the FBI to stop investigating his own Tongde... This violates judicial independence. If Truman does this, he does not have to wait for the FBI to find out anything and he will commit a crime. If Edgar Hoover reveals it to Congress, then he will face impeachment...

But can impeachment be passed?

"Not afraid," Truman thought for a while, and said with certainty, "I'll find an opportunity to talk to Edgar Hoover alone, which will definitely stop the investigation...I believe that he will understand the particularity of the current situation."

Kennedy said: "I understand, I will support you as always."

"Thank you very much," Truman said, "Joseph, there is another thing that needs to be notified by Hitler. We are ready to bomb Tokyo, the capital of Japan in the near future! We will use plague bacteria ceramic bombs and anthrax spore bombs! In addition, we will also provide plague bacteria ceramic bombs and anthrax spore bombs to the Soviet Union and China!"

"What?" Kennedy was stunned. "President, aren't we ready to negotiate peace?"

"That's right!" Truman said, "but we must also let the Germans know that we are not subject to power without resistance. And... we cannot let Japan compete with us for leadership in the Pacific."

The Germans had their own wishful thinking about the world after the war, and the Americans also had to make arrangements. In the Atlantic and Canada, the United States was powerless now, and could only try to send the "liberal British" and liberals from other European countries, including the French trapped in Saint-Pierre and Miquelon Islands, to Australia. The American peace talks delegation in Rome have recently made negotiations with the Germans, hoping to air-carry the French to the United States (actually to Australia), and also obtained permission. Because the archipelago was blocked by American mines, the Germans did not want to use limited air transport power to deliver food to them. Besides, it would be difficult to catch people like De Gaulle and others. It would be a problem to release them and shoot them to stimulate the national feelings of the French. It would be the most ideal thing to send them to the United States, which is to go to Australia to continue the revolution, which is easier than to capture them back.

But in the Pacific, which the Germans were beyond the reach of the Germans, the Americans did not intend to give up. Because he also knew that the Germans could not work hard to expedition, nor could they establish direct rule in the Pacific. At least before they settled Europe, they would not have to think that the three big thorns, Russia, France and Great Britain alone would be enough to keep the Germans busy for decades.

So in the East, Germany (United States of Europe)'s sphere of influence was just India. Further east, the Japanese were stuck in the Strait of Malacca, the Chinese had endless sources of troops, and Australia and New Zealand would become freedom fortresses, and none of them were easy to deal with. Moreover, it was too far from Europe, and the Germans could not invest millions of troops in the other side of the Soviet Union.

As for dropping atomic bombs or something... atomic bombs cannot replace the army to occupy it! Moreover, the Japanese have bacterial weapons, and Australia and New Zealand have also obtained a large number of bacterial weapons from the United States. Now Truman has given the bacterial weapons to China and the Soviet Union, so that several forces in the Pacific direction will have some counter-force.

After Australia, New Zealand, China, the Soviet Union, Russia and Japan have methods to protect themselves, what the United States needs to do is naturally to establish a five-nation alliance of the United States, China, Japan, and the Soviet Union, which is headed by itself. The existence of the Pacific Alliance is not only a need for the United States to compete for world leadership again in the future, but also help the United States get out of the huge economic difficulties brought by its defeat.

Just look at the map and count the population in the Asia-Pacific region to know how big the market is!

However, the Japanese Empire was the biggest obstacle to the United States leading the Pacific region and using it as the export market for commodity and capital.

Because Japan will have a maritime force after the war that can overwhelm the US Navy and dominate the Pacific! Therefore, Japan can cut off the United States' route to Australia, New Zealand, China, and the Soviet Union.

"Okay," Kennedy understood the president's mind completely, "I will tell Hitler this news."

Truman said: "In addition, tell Hitler that we will pay a lot of compensation and agree to the demilitarization of the Hawaiian Islands and the Aleutian Islands, but free navigation in the Pacific must be guaranteed!"

...

"What? Americans are going to bomb Tokyo with bacterial weapons?"

This time, Hessman heard this information that should have been confidential in the office of the German Chancellor's Office.

"Yes," Adolf Hitler said, "but Americans will agree to the demilitarization of the Hawaiian Islands and the Aleutian Islands. But at the same time, the United States demands free navigation in the Pacific."

"So that's the case," Hessman frowned. "Are they going to attack from North Korea and Vladivostok bases?"

Now Japan has lost North Korea, where it has a US air force base. Vladivostok has officially established the US Army Air Force Base since the outbreak of the Far East War in July 1944.

On the land of China and the Soviet Union, the Americans deployed a 15th Air Force, with about 1,000 fighter jets and bombers. In addition, the Sino-Soviet Air Force also had the same number of fighters (the main fighter jets of the Sino-Soviet Air Force were La 7 fighters assembled with American engines, radio stations and wooden shells), which could basically fight against the Japanese Army and Navy aviation. Every now and then, they could send B-17s to idling around Tokyo and Osaka to throw some napalm bombs to support the American working people.

Of course, Japan also has the strength to retaliate. Vladivostok and Shanghai have been hit by Japanese bombs many times. However, since the United States sent an F-13 early warning aircraft to provide on-site command of the Sino-Soviet Air Force, the losses of Japanese aircraft in Shanghai and over Vladivostok have always been very large. Overall, the advantage lies with the US, China and the Soviet Union.

So Hessmann naturally thought of the American plane attacking from North Korea and Vladivostok.

"I don't know this." Hitler shook his head, "It should be."
