Regardless of whether the German chick would get mad, the feat of Su Rui and Li Zongren jointly regaining Jiangxi Province once again shocked the country.
Since Suri's official appearance, news about him has been one after another. Whether it is his miraculous rise, his balloon-like speed of military expansion, the capture of two Japanese division commanders alive or his brilliant achievements, it is the national
A topic that people are talking about.
When Su Rui announced that he would march into Jiangxi, many people were still skeptical. After all, Su Rui had just liberated all of Guangdong less than a year ago, and now he wants to attack Jiangxi. Do you really think that the Japanese are stupid?
, let you slaughter him? But the facts tell everyone that he really did it. The blue sky and white sun flag once again flew over Jiangxi, which silenced all the doubting voices. Especially Su Rui also took the unlucky man
Lieutenant General Nishiyama Yuta would be pulled out from time to time for reporters to take photos. Such actions certainly made the Chinese people happy to see them, but on the other hand, this was simply adding salt to the wounds of the Japanese. Now
Suri has replaced Chairman Chiang Kai-shek and has become the first person the Japanese want to get rid of.
"He did it, he really did it. This little guy is really not easy!"
A ray of sunshine in winter fell, and in a white office in that white villa that countless Americans yearned for, Roosevelt was sitting in his wheelchair, quietly on his knees.
There was a piece of information just sent by the intelligence department, and in his hand was hot coffee just sent by secretary Margaret Lehand.
He looked away from the information, closed his eyes quietly for a while, and said softly: "Dear Missy (Margaret's nickname), would you please invite Hawkins in?"
"Of course." Margaret smiled sweetly and walked out of the office gently.
After Margaret left, Roosevelt gently closed his eyes again. After a while, there was a sound of footsteps. He was wearing a gray suit and two beards. He looked elegant and elegant. Roosevelt's senior staff, the national
Security consultant Dr. Hawkins walked in.
Roosevelt closed his eyes and said softly: "Hawkins, please sit down."
Hawkins was not polite and sat down immediately.
Before Hawkins could say anything, Roosevelt went straight to the topic: "Hawkins, we have some problems with China's strategy. Do you have any good suggestions for this?"
Hawkins nodded, with a wry smile on his face: "Mr. President, this is indeed beyond our expectation. We didn't expect that the Chinese general actually recovered another province, and this province is still a relatively wealthy one."
place. In this way, their strength will definitely reach a higher level in a short period of time. As China's strength increases, the Nationalist Government will definitely reduce its dependence on us, which is extremely detrimental to our layout in Asia."
"Yes!" Roosevelt nodded thoughtfully and said softly: "Originally, according to our plan, as the Japanese further invaded China, China's resistance would become more and more difficult, and we would provide military assistance through
Let the Chinese government continue to consume the strength of the Japanese, and eventually force them to implement their so-called southward strategy, but..."
"But now there are changes in the south of China. This is not good news for us?" Hawkins took over Roosevelt's words.
Roosevelt frowned deeply.
There is no doubt that he is a smart, outstanding, and very controlling politician. For a politician like him, what he dislikes most is the emergence of some variables beyond his control, and the recent changes in China
The variables that occurred in Guangdong and Jiangxi were beyond his control, and all the variables were related to the Chinese general named Su Rui.
Slowly rubbing his brow with his hand a few times, Roosevelt said helplessly: "Hawkins, things in the world don't always go as planned. God will always arrange some unexpected things to test us, so
We don’t have to worry too much, I believe things will always be solved.”
Hawkins said worriedly: "Mr. President, I'm not worried about this. What I'm worried about is that no matter how the Soviet general develops, his army will become more and more numerous and his strength will become stronger. Eventually, he will
If it has developed to the point where it can challenge Mr. Chiang, if he really replaces Mr. Chiang and takes that seat, how should we deal with the relationship with him? After all, whether it is from Johnson (U.S. Ambassador to China) or Hurley
Judging from the reports, this General Su is definitely a rebellious person, and sometimes it can even be said that he is a little motivated. For such a person, we..."
Hawkins sighed and stopped talking, but Roosevelt had already understood what he meant. People like Suri who play cards unreasonably always feel elusive and the most troublesome because it is difficult for you to guess.
What will he do next? Such people are the most troublesome.
Immediately afterwards, Roosevelt said something that surprised Hawkins even more.
"Hawkins, our spies lurking in Chongqing have received news that the German government has contacted the Nationalist Government again a few days ago. In October, the German Charge d'Affaires in China flew to Guangdong under the cover of fighter planes sent by the Nationalist Government.
, whose purpose is unknown.”
"What? This is impossible!" Hawkins stood up suddenly and looked at Roosevelt with wide eyes, "Your Excellency, hasn't Germany already severed diplomatic relations with the National Government? How could they get together?"
"What's so strange about this?" Roosevelt sneered: "Hawkins, don't you understand by now? As long as there are enough interests between countries, let alone severing diplomatic relations, even sworn enemies can immediately become relatives.
Brother. And I received news that just last month, the Nationalist Government’s air force suddenly had thirty new German Messerschmitt BF109 fighter jets and a large number of spare parts. Isn’t this enough to explain the problem?
Yet?"
Hawkins was silent for a long time, and gradually calmed down, then shook his head and said: "Mr. President, I still don't believe that the German government will re-establish normal relations with the National Government. This cannot be made up for by dozens of fighter jets or something.
Because this already involves Germany's strategic issues.
Although Germany, like us, has its main interests in Europe, this does not mean giving up on Asia. Germany needs an ally, an ally that is strong and can help them. It is obvious that China does not meet the requirements of the Germans. China
The overall national strength of Germany is really bad. As long as Hitler and his generals don't collectively become stupid, they will not change the current diplomatic situation. I guess Germany suddenly handed over these fighter jets to China because they wanted something.
It is related to the National Government, and this matter must be related to our General Su, but what it is is not something we can know."
"Well, that makes sense." Roosevelt nodded approvingly. "The situation in Asia can be said to be very simple, or it can be said to be very complicated. The biggest variables now are Guangdong and Jiangxi. If my estimate is good, we
That kid must have united with his two fellow villagers. If this is the case, the situation in China will be very lively. If people from the Gui family are allowed to take control of China, I really don’t know what will happen.
What happened?"
Looking at Roosevelt's slightly troubled expression, Hawkins couldn't think of any good solution for a while, but he seemed very unconcerned: "Mr. President, God will not always favor a race or a country, just like
As we expected, this war will sweep the world sooner or later. What we have to do now is to observe patiently and then make the right decision, just like what we have discussed before, right?" After saying that, Hawkins
He also spread his hands and made a nonchalant gesture.
This action made Roosevelt laugh, "Haha... Hawkins, you are really open-minded. Well, I admit that I really have to learn from you in this regard."
After the laughter, Roosevelt felt that he was in a much better mood and regained his usual wisdom. He moved his wheelchair to the table, picked up the phone and said, "Missy, please bring me and Hawkins a cup of hot coffee."
, remember, only put one sugar cube."
Soon, two cups of hot coffee were delivered to Roosevelt and Hawkins.
Hawkins took a sip of coffee, then smiled and said to Roosevelt: "Mr. President, I think it is time to strengthen our intelligence network against China, otherwise I am afraid that we will suffer in this regard in the future."
Roosevelt put down the cup in his hand, frowned and said, "Well, your worries are not unreasonable. It's just that this is a big expense, and it's hard for me to convince Congress."
"Congress? Those old diehards?" Hawkins sneered: "Those stubborn diehards with rigid minds should have been swept away from the garbage heap of history long ago. They will only hold on to the banner of isolationism and refuse to let go. But they don't know that now
Although the United States is powerful, if it does not adapt to the world as soon as possible, it will be eliminated by the world sooner or later.
The Germans have joined forces with the Soviet Russians to carve up Poland, and now they are attacking France and the United Kingdom. When Britain and France fall, it will be the turn of the Soviet Union. But if the Soviet Union falls again and the Japanese conquer China, we, the United States, will
Can the United States still stay out of the matter? I’m afraid we will have to be prepared to fight on our own soil by then, right?”
Roosevelt took a deep breath and said, "Hawkins, that's just the worst-case scenario. Our great United States of America will never fall, and the Star-Spangled Banner will always fly over the United States. Don't worry, no matter how difficult it is, I will urge Congress to pass it as soon as possible."
I promise to increase military assistance to China and the construction of intelligence networks..."
