"Gentlemen, that is to say, the Germans have built a 20-kilometer line of defense between the Nova Scotia Peninsula and New Brunswick, completely encircling our troops on the Nova Scotia Peninsula. Is it inside?" Prime Minister Churchill's face was very ugly.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, it can be said. However, the German defense line has just been built, and it is very hasty. The coalition forces have already dispatched troops to launch an attack. As long as we can tear apart the German defense line, then our crisis can be resolved. said Admiral Wavell.

  Although Admiral Wavell suffered a defeat, he was not punished, and now serves as the Chief of Staff of the British Army.

   "Can we tear through the German defenses?" Prime Minister Churchill asked. He's clearly not that easily fooled.

"Your Excellency, the U.S. military has dispatched elite armored troops and will launch an attack soon. Of course, we can also deploy troops from New Brunswick to participate in the attack. If we attack from both sides, we will tear apart the Germans in one fell swoop The defense line will be more likely," Admiral Wavell went on.

   Prime Minister Churchill nodded: "Well, let's deploy troops to participate in the offensive. In any case, our troops on the Nova Scotia peninsula cannot be eaten by the Germans."

   "Yes, Your Excellency the Prime Minister." Admiral Wavell and others replied.

  After the meeting, Prime Minister Churchill frowned tightly. The current situation is already very unfavorable for the US and British coalition forces. The UK, in particular, is in crisis.

   "God! Can we really defeat the British this time? If we fail, where will the British Empire go?" Churchill murmured.

  At the same time, the U.S. Army General Staff also held an emergency meeting. Although the German army surrounded the American and British coalition forces on the Nova Scotia Peninsula, it also brought them a great shock.

After some discussion and deliberation, Admiral Marshall issued an order to let the US 3rd Army and 4th Army speed up the march, rush to New Brunswick as soon as possible, and invest in the offensive to cooperate with Nova Scotia The US-British coalition forces on the peninsula broke through the German blockade in one fell swoop. At the same time, the United States also sent a note to the British side, asking them to do their best to invest in troops to launch an offensive to rescue the US-British coalition forces on the Nova Scotia peninsula.

  It's a pity that the troops under the German 4th Army continuously landed in Port Elgin and joined the defense line. For a line of defense of only 20 kilometers, the 200,000 people under the German 4th Army are enough to arrange this line of defense like an iron bucket. In particular, the German army controls the air and sea supremacy, which gives the German army a greater advantage in battle.

  It is almost very difficult for the American and British allied forces to break through the blockade of the German army and escape from birth.

  When the German 4th Army completed the blockade of the US-British Allied Forces, the main force of the German Army also launched an attack on the US-British Allied Forces on the Nova Scotia Peninsula.

  The German 1st Army and the 10th Army attacked south from the Canso Strait. The main force moved along the coast towards New Glasgow.

  The U.S. 1st Army and 2nd Army, as well as the British Army, mobilized troops to intercept the Germans. However, under the fierce attack of the German army, the US and British coalition forces could not resist the German attack at all.

  The armored units of the German 1st Army and 2nd Army rushed along the road frantically. With the support of one's own air force and navy's carrier-based aircraft, the defense lines of the US and British coalition forces were easily torn apart one by one.

  Under the fierce attack of the German army, the US-British coalition forces on the Nova Scotia Peninsula were completely unable to stop the German attack. The armored units of the U.S. 1st Army were also smashed in front of the solid defense line built by the German 4th Army.

  A tank battle broke out between the German 4th Armored Division and the US 2nd Armored Division in the south of Port Elgin. The two sides invested hundreds of tanks in this tank battle. However, the final result is still that the performance of the German "Tiger Leopard Tank" is stronger. At the same time, the quality of the crew members of the German tanks is obviously much better than that of the American armored soldiers who entered the battlefield for the first time. The final result was that the US 2nd Armored Division was almost wiped out. The German 4th Armored Division only paid the price of dozens of tanks being destroyed. Moreover, most of the destroyed tanks were 'Black Panther' tanks. These medium-sized tanks no longer have much advantage in front of the US military's M26 heavy tanks.

  The American and British coalition forces fought fiercely in the northern part of the Nova Scotia peninsula. The outcome of this battle is directly related to the fate of both sides.

  At this time, the German 25th Army landed at Dartmouth in the eastern part of the Nova Scotia peninsula. With the main forces of the US and British allied forces gathered in the northern part of the Nova Scotia peninsula, the southern part of the peninsula is empty of troops, with only a small number of troops stationed. These troops simply could not withstand the attack of the German 25th Army. Even if this force is newly formed, it is definitely not something that the British Army can resist. Soon, the southern part of the peninsula fell into the control of the German army.

  When the German 25th Army landed in the eastern part of the peninsula, the German 26th Army, with the assistance of the Marine Corps, landed on Prince Edward Island.

  At this moment, the British army does not have many troops left on Prince Edward Island. It simply cannot withstand the attack of the German 26th Army. In less than two days, the entire Prince Edward Island fell into the hands of the Germans.

  After the German army occupied Prince Edward Island, it posed a direct threat to New Brunswick. If the Germans wished, they could set off directly from Prince Edward Island and land in New Brunswick.

  At this moment, the US-British coalition forces obviously have no way to stop the German army from landing. The German Marine Corps has proved their strength in a series of previous landing operations.

  This also forced the US and British coalition forces to deploy troops to defend the coastal area in northern New Brunswick to prevent the German army from landing.

  If the German army lands in New Brunswick again, the US and British coalition forces will be in a more dangerous situation.

  However, even so, the troops of the US-British coalition forces on the Nova Scotia peninsula also have no way out. The German Army dispatched a full five armies, as well as five marine divisions. A total of as many as 1.1 million troops.

  In addition, the German army still has command of the sea and the air. Under such circumstances, even if the US and British coalition forces continue to resist stubbornly, they will not last long.

  At the end of December, the hundreds of thousands of American and British coalition forces on the Nova Scotia Peninsula were all annihilated by the German army.
