The European War Ends

As Wesley's battle report was used domestically, the domestic media began to publicize it. There were not many American casualties in this battle, and the first injured soldiers returned to the country and became heroes. Wesley was a hero among heroes, and he was seen in the newspapers every day.

An outstanding genius, the owner of G Group and the most outstanding young general in the army. He became a lieutenant general at the age of 24. Many people think he can become president in the future.

However, Wesley was very busy at the moment. When the second group of landing troops arrived, Pershing came with them. He pulled Wesley enthusiastically and asked him about his battle plan and actual execution. He was a respectable person. As a soldier, Pershing was undoubtedly a successful one, and he also regarded Wesley as his successor.

Wesley recounted his Blitzkrieg philosophy, which is more relativistic in terms of relative speed. I don't have to be faster than lightning, I just have to be faster than my opponent. Pershing agreed with this. He didn't expect Wesley to use the latest weapons and tactics so well. These brought more orders to Wesley's arsenal, especially mortars and machine guns.

After the October Revolution broke out in Russia, there were some changes in the form of Europe, and then winter came. The various countries were busy and were extra careful about the current international form. Red swept through Russia, and Russia would launch a war. The Allies were a little depressed about this.

Then, on March 3, 1918, Lenin signed the Treaty of Brest with Germany and announced his withdrawal from World War I. At this time, Wesley was again supplemented by fifty divisions, twenty heavy artillery brigades and twenty engineer brigades, six Marine brigades and ten cavalry brigades. With the greatest supply of supplies, he launched the spring offensive directly, and this time he contacted British and French allies in advance.

Although Germany was prepared, Wesley's army was now strong and strong. He directly used the Marine Corps Brigade to complete the night armed crossing. Then, he fired a full-scale artillery attack. Engineers drove hundreds of pontoons, and the soldiers were unstoppable. At the same time, Wesley used British and French warplanes to bombard the enemy's rear positions. The integration of the open space appeared for the first time, and the infantry artillery coordinated like fire.

Breaking through Germany's defenses in one fell swoop, the army marched all the way in. Germany surrendered in early April 1918, seven months ahead of the parallel universe. At this point, Wesley became the most famous general in the world, not only because of his achievements, but also because of his age.

After the war, the U.S. military did not take over any part of Germany. This was Wesley's order and it was handed directly to the British and French to manage. The U.S. military began to retreat to France and held a grand entrance ceremony in Paris. Wesley rode in a military jeep and wore a lieutenant general's uniform and accepted the French welcome.

This romantic capital seemed to have been revitalized overnight. Countless people crowded the joints to welcome the victorious Americans. The United States Army finally had a vacation, but they were restricted from some activities and were not allowed to spend the night outside.

Wesley knew very well what American soldiers were like, so from the first day he led the army, he emphasized military discipline. In a year in Europe, military discipline was what he emphasized the most. How could a unit without discipline have any combat power?

Moreover, Wesley did not want these soldiers to leave their annual pay in France. He would control them if he could. It would be good for them to spend again when they returned to the United States.

Most of the soldiers here would not be dismissed. The standing army of the United States would have to be retained. The combat power demonstrated in this war had sobered the Americans up a lot. Without two years of training, these new recruits could not have achieved such good results. This was Wesley's confidence.

A month later, the soldiers began to return to the country. They would have a holiday. Nearly two million soldiers were almost the entire force of the United States now. The United States did not launch a wartime system. These people were all formed in the beginning. There were more than 120 divisions in one division. This time, a hundred of them came. There were also many special forces brigades left, mainly heavy artillery and engineer soldiers.

Wesley and Pershing stayed in Paris to prepare for the final peace talks. President Wilson came to Paris and met Wesley and Pershing directly.

"My general, how is it? Now you are the hero of the city," President Wilson said happily.

"It doesn't matter, Mr. President. In my opinion, this peace will not last long," Wesley said.

"Oh? Then say what you think!"

Wesley nodded and then said, "First of all, the British and French oppression of Germany must be unprecedented. Their hatred is too deep, and they are very afraid of the German Army. You will feel it at the meeting."

"Well, that's true. You mean they will be very harsh on Germany?"

"That's right. That's why I suggest that the United States not get too involved in the division of Germany this time. We have already gotten a lot of benefits in the Pacific Ocean, especially the two islands. Their strategic position is very important and will be very helpful in containing the development of Japan.

"Do you care about that small island country?"

"You haven't studied their history, and they are very willing to learn. They will learn from whichever country is stronger, especially China. They have studied with China for thousands of years, and now they have the chance to teach their teachers a lesson. Now they are learning from Britain, and you believe them. When they find an opportunity, they will teach their current teachers, the British, a lesson."

"Oh, I didn't expect you to study them?"

"It's not research. I saw it when I was reading the book and remembered it when I felt it was interesting. Moreover, Japan's development is completely deformed. The military they developed spared no effort in building their country. Under such circumstances, once the conflict breaks out, they can only choose war."

"You think they will invade China?"

"Not now. Their military strength is not enough, but they are still developing like this, so we can be more friendly to Germany at this peace meeting and win their friendship. Although we defeated Germany, we will be a good person compared to Britain and France."

"Not bad. Good thinking. You should have gone into politics." Wilson sighed.

"Politics is too tiring. I won't participate. Maybe my children will." Wesley smiled meaningfully. "Oh, right, we need to help China at the peace meeting. Although we don't have much say, it's necessary to show a friendly attitude. This will make it easier for us to invest and sell things in China. After the war, it will inevitably be the Depression period, and it's easy to have an economic crisis. We have to prepare early."

"Understood. The delegation will consider your opinion. There is basically no problem."
