As the saying goes, it is not too late to remedy the situation. However, when applied to the central government of the Communist Party of China, it has no effect at this moment. In the military control agencies and departments, under Dai Li’s orders
, quickly rushed to various newspapers, preparing to close down those newspapers that were detrimental to the propaganda of the party and the state. Although the military commander suddenly attacked and arrested many newspaper staff, the newspapers promoting the Eighth Route Army had already sold hundreds of copies.
Wanfen. Almost every Chinese, at this moment, is aware of the Eighth Route Army’s military parade in Taiyuan, and is aware of the tremendous achievements made by the Eighth Route Army in the rear areas of the Japanese during several years of resistance.
…
As for the counterattack of the Communist Party directed by Chen Cheng, not only did it not suppress the Communist Party, but on the other hand, it increased the authenticity of the newspapers that promoted the Communist Party... because the Communist Party promoted it in the newspapers.
There is almost no difference between the achievements of the Communist Party of China and the propaganda of the Communist Party of China. Faced with two newspapers that express completely different meanings, and then think about the propaganda in the morning, the Communist Party of China army has only one million troops, but in a few years
There were successive defeats in the battle. However, the Japanese troops behind the Japs, with incomplete weapons, actually regained the entire North China region from the Japs' hands, and at the same time wiped out hundreds of thousands of Japs.
…
Ordinary people don’t have so many twists and turns in their hearts, but there is a steelyard in their hearts. As long as they are careful, whose propaganda is trustworthy and whose propaganda is not trustworthy will be clearly stated in front of everyone.
.So, even though the newspapers issued by *** were shouted and sold by newsboys in the streets and alleys, no one paid any attention to them...
Of course, Chen Cheng and Dai Li did not have the courage to report the news of the setback in propaganda and the failure of the military unification attack. Faced with Chiang Kai-shek, who was mentally and physically exhausted at this moment and could get angry at any time, they could only suppress the result of this failure.
From the bottom of my heart, let yourself bear the consequences...
At this moment, far away in Washington, the United States, on the other side of the ocean, the current President of the United States, Roosevelt, was carefully reading a telegram that had just been sent back to the country from China after a distance of several thousand kilometers. And this telegram
, it is about the Eighth Route Army troops led by the Communist Party of China, which just held a military parade in Taiyuan, Shanxi...
And right in front of Roosevelt, several government officials and the commander-in-chief of the U.S. Pacific Fleet, Admiral MacArthur, were sitting in front of Roosevelt without saying a word. Of course, they also had a telegram with the same content in their hands.
…
"Gentlemen, what do you think of this telegram, which was sent directly from China, thousands of kilometers away, to Washington by an American reporter?" After reading the contents of the telegram in his hand several times, Roosevelt put down his words.
He picked up the telegram in his hand and asked with a smile on his face to the Commander-in-Chief, Secretary of State and others...
"Mr. President, I think that even if the contents of the telegram are completely true, it will be of no use to us in the United States at this moment. After all, our interests as Americans are in Europe, not Asia. Therefore, regarding the telegram,
I am completely opposed to this reporter’s proposal..." An official who had always been in favor of the Japanese attack on China put down the telegram in his hand, stood up very gentlemanly, and said...
"No, we cannot sit idly by and ignore the content of this telegram. We should pay attention to it. Everyone in the world knows the wolfish ambitions of the ***. Sooner or later, the *** will extend their tentacles to
The Atlantic Ocean extends to the interests of us Americans. So, Mr. President, I think we should convene a parliament immediately to re-formulate our attitude and policies towards China..." Another war-fighting official stood up immediately
, retorted loudly.
"General Mike, what are your opinions? You must know that many of the proposals in the telegram are the direction of your Pacific Fleet..." Roosevelt did not immediately express any opinions on the two people who were arguing in front of him.
He turned his head and focused his gaze on MacArthur, the U.S. Commander-in-Chief of the Pacific and asked.
"Your Excellency the President, gentlemen, when I answer the question of Your Excellency the President, please allow me to inform you of something. According to the investigation of our intelligence agencies in the Pacific region, we have learned that in Japan, for strategic needs, for the
In the next battle, more oil, rubber... and various strategic materials will be obtained. It seems that the decision has been made to send troops to Southeast Asia and the Philippines... In other words, in the near future, the Japanese army will send troops to Southeast Asia and the Philippines.
These two places launched an attack to seize the rich strategic resources in both places..." Under the gaze of President Roosevelt and several other secretaries of state, General MacArthur said with a serious face.
"What, it's impossible, this is absolutely impossible. Southeast Asia is a colony of Britain and France. As for the Philippines, to a certain extent, it is basically under the control of our country. Our country has very huge interests in the Philippines. I believe,*
It’s impossible for the Japanese not to know this. And with the Japanese’s national strength, he simply has no ability to fight with our country and Britain and France at the same time..." A representative of the peace faction, without any hesitation, immediately
He stood up from his seat and asked incredulously...
"Britain and France... Hehe, sir, maybe you have forgotten a very important thing about Europe. At this moment, the European battlefield has been changed because of Germany's continuous expansion, the attention of Britain and France, and their own priority experiences.
All attention is focused on the competition on the European battlefield. As for the colonies in Southeast Asia, these two countries seem to have forgotten..." General MacArthur said with a sarcastic face...
"Mr. General, even if there were no Britain and France, the *** would not be able to bear it just by relying on the United States. Do the *** at this moment want to rely on the United States before ending the battle on the Chinese battlefield?
With the limited resources of our own country, we are fighting on two fronts. I believe that as long as the Emperor is not a fool, he will not make such a stupid decision..." Another official of the peace faction stood up with a look on his face.
Said confidently…
"Yes, our intelligence department must have made a mistake..." "The Emperor of Japan is not a fool. They will not be stupid enough to fight on two fronts..." Immediately, the main peace officers in the entire office issued one after another
My own opinion, I agree with the analysis of the two people just now...
"No, gentlemen, things are far from as good as you think. Although ***'s domestic resources are very scarce, almost half of the army's troops are trapped in China's messy battlefield. However, don't forget
One thing is that among the military that the Japanese emperor devoted all his national power to build, the navy is their biggest trump card. At this moment, the Japanese still have a combined fleet that dominates the entire Asia in their hands. If Japan's
If the combined fleet engages in a pincer attack with the German fleet, the entire Pacific Ocean will fall into the hands of the Japanese. As for the Japanese combined fleet, they can also capture all the land around the Pacific at will through sea routes. As for us in the United States, the same
It is within the attack range of the opponent's warships... Therefore, Mr. President, gentlemen, I suggest that the United States must be prepared to participate in the exhibition at any time..." Admiral MacArthur said with a determined look.
"I agree with the suggestion of your Excellency the General. From now on, we in the United States can no longer be a bystander. Now that the entire Europe and Asia have been caught in the flames of war, we in the United States must make our own response to world peace.
Some contribution. Otherwise, sooner or later, the war will penetrate deep into our American soil..." said an official from the main war faction...
"Gentlemen, do you have any other suggestions? General, in order to face the Japanese combined fleet that may move south at any time, I wonder if your Pacific Fleet has any good countermeasures..." After the two parties fought for victory,
At a critical moment, President Roosevelt, who was silent, interrupted the quarrel and said...
"Reporting to your Excellency, the President, as long as we receive your order, our Pacific Fleet may enter the first level of combat readiness at any time to fight against all enemies who dare to enter the areas controlled by the United States to ensure the interests of the American people. Please rest assured, Your Excellency..." Admiral MacArthur said with a look on his face
He replied confidently. After all, he has in his hands an army whose combat effectiveness and equipment are no less than any fleet from other countries in the world...
"Very well, gentlemen, what I want to say now is that Europe and Asia have been completely enveloped by the flames of war. Although we in the United States are still bystanders at this moment, we cannot relax and must be ready at any time.
Prepare to join the battle. Therefore, for the benefit of the United States, I have made a temporary decision in the name of the President. The Pacific Fleet, under the leadership of Commander MacArthur, will immediately enter a state of combat readiness and be ready to join the battlefield at any time. At the same time, the Pacific Fleet must ensure
The security of the northern gate of the United States protects the interests of the entire United States..." President Roosevelt made up his mind and said with certainty...
"At the same time, in order to force the Communist Army to completely fall into the quagmire of the Chinese battlefield, I decided to increase the assistance of various military supplies to the Chinese government and strengthen the Chinese government's anti-war strength. Of course, in front of the Central Government of China, I commemorated
I think everyone should have a certain understanding of the poor performance during the Anti-Japanese War through various channels. The Eighth Route Army troops led by the Communist Party of China operating behind the Japanese army not only did not fail, but achieved the goal of annihilating hundreds of thousands of enemies.
Achievements. I believe that this newly emerged force will definitely become a nightmare for the Communists on the Chinese battlefield in the near future. Therefore, I decided to allocate one-third of the large amount of military supplies to assist the Chinese government.
A large number of supplies will directly assist this Eighth Route Army unit, improve the combat effectiveness of this Eighth Route Army unit, and allow them to kill a large number of Japanese soldiers' effective forces on the Chinese battlefield, constantly consuming the Japanese people's national power, and reducing their combined fleet.
Opportunity to enter the Pacific..." Roosevelt ordered with certainty...
"What, Mr. President, we heard it right. Let us use the American people's tax dollars to help the Chinese people fight the enemy's aggression. More importantly, we must also assist the Eighth Route Army led by the Communist Party of China. You know
, The Communist Party of China is a branch of the Soviet Communist Party. Aren't we supporting the expansion of communism on the earth? Mr. President, where have you put the interests of the United States..." After listening to Roosevelt's order, a
Representatives of the peace faction immediately stood up and spoke out in opposition.
"The interests of the United States, sir, I want to ask you a question. If a country cannot even guarantee its security, how can it have any interests? If we cannot guarantee the security of the United States and the safety of its citizens,
Where do our interests come from? I believe that if I cannot even guarantee the interests of the country, in the next election, I, the president, will definitely be ousted from office by the Democratic People’s Congress. And, as a leader of the United States,
President, the first thing to consider is the safety of the people, and the second is the interests of the people. Please understand this point, otherwise, you will be wasting taxpayers' money..." Roosevelt was dissatisfied with the answer of the official in front of him.
He said, his words full of sarcasm...
"Your Excellency, President, I apologize to you for what I just said, which was not considered well on my part. However, as a congressman, I must put the interests of the people, in addition to safety, first. I don't know.
Why does your Excellency the President directly support the Chinese government in Asia far away with a large amount of taxpayers' money? Isn't our American military enough to stop the possible aggression of the Japanese?" Seeing the dissatisfied Roosevelt, he just said
The congressman who expressed his opinion quickly apologized.
"Gentlemen, I think everyone here has the same question. I have two reasons here, and I hope to get your support. We use taxpayers' money to support the Chinese government so that they can continue to work with the *** people.
To carry out the struggle, all the limited troops of the Communist Party of China will be trapped on the Chinese battlefield, leaving them unable to mobilize more troops and launch a new war. The second reason is that the Communist Party of China lacks various strategic resources, while China has
I think everyone is very clear about the large amount of strategic resources. If the Japanese are allowed to occupy the entire China and obtain a large amount of strategic resources, the Japanese will have greater ability to launch a new war. At that time,
People's eyes will definitely be on the entire Pacific region, and even the American continent..." Roosevelt said...
"I completely agree with your Excellency the President's opinion, increase the resources of various strategic materials for the Chinese government, constantly replenish the Chinese government with fresh blood, let the entire battle continue, continue to consume the limited national power of the Japanese people, and reduce
***The probability of the Combined Fleet entering the Pacific..." Admiral MacArthur said with certainty...
"Gentlemen, what General Mike just said is very correct. We support the Chinese government with a large amount of strategic materials to achieve this purpose. As for why I want to allocate one-third of the strategic materials to reinforce the Japanese troops behind the Japanese army
, the reason for this army that believes in communism, I have just said... In the several years of fighting on the Chinese battlefield, although the Communist Party had millions of troops, it was retreating steadily on the frontal battlefield.
A large area of land was lost. However, the Eighth Route Army grew from a strength of tens of thousands to an elite army of nearly one million, and also wiped out hundreds of thousands of the most elite troops of the Japanese army... I think everyone should understand this comparison of results.
Reason. In China, if we only rely on the National Government, the whole of China will be occupied by the *** sooner or later. However, if there is the assistance of the *** army, the *** army will be completely trapped in the quagmire of the Chinese battlefield.
..." In response to General MacArthur's answer, Roosevelt smiled and nodded. Then he continued...
"Your Excellency, I have to say that your reasons moved me. I believe that this matter will be recognized by the majority of members in the next parliamentary meeting..." Having said this, I was still very angry just now.
A member of the private sector who firmly disagreed with increasing support for China had to lower his head and said confidently to President Roosevelt in front of him...
"Gentlemen, that's it for today's meeting. Ross, you have to write down the contents of today's meeting in the shortest possible time, and then distribute it to each member of Congress for everyone to make a decision. Come to me tomorrow.
We will organize a parliament and make a decision..." Roosevelt nodded and said affirmatively.
During the parliamentary vote the next day, it was no surprise that after reading a series of explanations by President Roosevelt and facing the dangerous situation that his country might be attacked by the Japanese combined fleet at any time, the entire resolution was voted down by one-third.
Two votes passed... After a while, Roosevelt made a decision. Without any hesitation, he immediately sent a telegram to the central government of China, Chiang Kai-shek, on behalf of the president. Of course, Roosevelt did not forget that he was far away.
The Communist Party of China in North China entrusted an American reporter stationed in Taiyuan to deliver a telegram personally dictated by him into the hands of Chairman Mao of the Communist Party of China...
Facing a telegram personally sent by US President Roosevelt, although Chiang Kai-shek was very angry and dissatisfied, he really had no choice. Because at this moment, the central government had already lost most of its territory. And if he wanted to continue the entire war,
If there is no assistance from the United States, there will be only one result, and that is to lose the entire country under the attack of the Japanese in the shortest possible time...
After thinking for a long time, Chiang Kai-shek had no choice but to agree to President Roosevelt's decision and allocate one-third of the strategic supplies to his enemy, the Eighth Route Army...
As for the chairman and others who were far away in Taiyuan, they were surprised and very excited after receiving Roosevelt's telegram. Because this telegram not only meant that in the future battles, the Eighth Route Army would receive a steady stream of American supplies.
Continuous assistance. It also represents the Chinese Communist Party. Through this military parade, it has been recognized by everyone internationally...
