The armored forces were all gathered on two lines, and there were more than 10,000 of them in total. The torrent of steel surged without end, and the largest tank war in human history began. The last of the armored forces of the Suds were deployed to fight the Allies to the death.
At a distance of 1,500 meters, the latest heavy tanks of the Allies opened fire first. The new 125mm tank guns easily penetrated the front armor of the enemy tanks at a distance of 1,500 meters. Then, the front tanks opened fire one after another. There was no technique or evasion. It was just a frontal bombardment.
There were almost 20,000 dual-line anti-tank tanks, but the Allies had air superiority. A large number of fighter jets took off and began to bombard the enemy tanks in the middle and rear. The dive bombers dropped their aerial bombs less than 100 meters above the tanks.
Smoke filled the entire battlefield. The camera team sent by Wesley took a large-scale transport-modified plane to record the decisive battle of the tanks over the entire battlefield. It was very difficult for it to appear again in human history.
The Allied army's steel torrent broke through the enemy's defense line. Although their own losses were very low, this reflected the importance of air superiority. If it was a simple tank duel, even if they had the advantage in equipment, they would still suffer heavy losses.
The tank troops continued to advance, and the infantry was closely followed by the assault artillery. The armies of the three countries were losing ground. The first thing Wesley did every morning was to see the progress of the advance. Then, the airborne troops began to move out and occupy some bridges and railways in advance to provide protection for the troops to smoothly pass through. At the end of August 1944, the Axis Powers completely surrendered and World War II officially ended.
Wesley had fulfilled his promise. The soldiers could go home for Christmas, but the follow-up work was the most tedious. A large number of weapons had been turned into scrap metal. The retirement of the troops and a series of other problems were a headache. Of course, these had nothing to do with Wesley. His affairs were basically over. China had reclaimed its homeland, and the United States had made a lot of money on the Atlantic. Postwar reparations were the government's business.
The troops began to return, and Wesley returned to the United States early to reunite with his family. Ruan Lingyu, in her thirties, was in her prime and had started her film career again. Wesley was supportive of this, but when Wesley returned, Ruan Lingyu put down her work and went home to accompany him.
The war was over and the division had begun. China had obtained a large amount of industrial equipment and warships. What made them continue was that it did not matter if the reparations could be reduced, but the United States did not care about these and directly asked for money.
Britain could be said to have declined. The two great wars had exhausted their last vitality, and it was impossible for them to dominate the world again. Now, the Americans had the final say. Although they were dissatisfied with this, they could only accept it.
The Soviet Union was directly dissolved and divided into more than a dozen countries according to nationalization, which made it difficult for them to unite again. Germany was not divided into two parts, east and west, but was completely supervised by the United States. The reason was simple. The hatred between the United Kingdom and France during World War I was too deep, so this time the Americans supervised it to prevent the same tragedy from being released again.
Peace was restored to the world, and Wesley was ready to start the 'X-Files'. However, at this time he received a new appointment. The Department of War was changed to the Department of Defense, and Wesley became the first Secretary of Defense.
He could only put it aside for the time being, but this matter could indeed wait. A key figure was still a child. Professor X was the first person Wesley had to contact, and this person was what he needed the most. As long as he could subdue him, many things would be easier in the future. If it was the old Professor X, then Wesley had no choice, but the young Professor X was easy to subdue.
As Secretary of Defense, Wesley's family moved to Washington. He needed to work here again, but there was not much to do. Now that World War II had just ended, what the United States needed to do was withdraw its troops, retire its soldiers, and develop its future.
The paperwork was giving Wesley a headache because he didn't have a computer now. He wondered if he should speed up the process. The early introduction of a computer would be a good way to advance science while increasing the accuracy of calculations.
The first generation of computers was invented in 1946, and Wesley decided to do it himself, so G Group set up a computer lab in D.C. to facilitate Wesley's work, but it was just a cover-up. Wesley was very fast at making computers, and he pretended to study them for three months. The first computer in human history came out in 1945, and although it was still something in the lab, it was inevitable to shock the world.
Of course, this kind of computer could not be used for office work, but Wesley opened a door, and then a large number of scientists flocked to join G Group, and Wesley went with Roosevelt to push for the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act. After all, the two sides were now allies.
The process went smoothly. Roosevelt and Wesley had great prestige. The Chinese Exclusion Act was repealed directly, and then the issue of equal treatment was promoted. The United States began to develop in different directions.
The earth in this universe was moving in different directions, but Roosevelt still couldn't escape the fate of death. Wesley did nothing about it. He just watched in silence, and at the same time he ignored the voice that told him to run for president and sat down in the secretary of defense position.
In 1962, at the age of 70, Wesley stepped down from the position of Secretary of Defense. Despite repeated attempts to persuade him to stay, Wesley stepped down. However, he did not leave completely. Because of the existence of the X-Files, this needs to be started. The curtain has been raised and mutants have begun to appear. For Wesley, who has been preparing for decades, this is something that must be done.
His first goal was the younger version of Professor X. Wesley looked older, but his body was still strong, and Ruan Ling was still beautiful. This was a family that the entire United States and the world envied. The two children had grown up and were studying hard, hoping to become like their father.
A Ford Corporation's top handmade sedan was parked in front of a university. Today was the day of Charles Francis Xavier's lecture. He had unique insights into the theory of genetic variation, a subject that was interesting at a time when the number of mutants was beginning to grow.
Wesley parked the sedan outside the school gate and waited for the class to end. When the students began to walk out, Wesley began to observe through the car window. He knew that Charles Francis Xavier and Raven had walked out. Wesley asked the driver to invite them.
