When Agent Jiang saw the secret telegram from Hong Kong, he tapped his scepter with his finger. After a long time, he took a piece of paper and wrote a few words. He hesitated again, shook his head, erased the words with a brush, and wrote again.
After a few words, the button was pressed.
Chen Bulei came in and asked, "Chairman, do you have any orders?"
Jiang's agent handed him the piece of paper and said, "Give it to Dai Li, he will do it. In addition, the southwest transportation has been connected. We need to negotiate more with Britain, France, the United States and other countries to let the Yunnan-Burma Highway play the role of a major artery. I heard that Japan
We are also negotiating with the British, and we must not let the British close our roads."
Chen Brai responded and walked out. After a while, Chen Lifu walked in and said to Jiang agent, "Commissioner, this is a secret message from Ganzhou."
Agent Jiang opened it and read it. It read every detail of ******'s time. He hummed. When he saw that Jiang Cheng was recruiting troops for ******, he nodded and snorted.
One voice said, "I hope he can learn from the experience and gain wisdom. Well, it's good that you come, let's talk about the Yan'an problem."

Liu Yunlong looked at the smiling Ogawa Heiyoshi and said, "(1) equality and mutual accommodation; (2) restoring the status quo before the Marco Polo Bridge Incident; (3) territorial (integrity) sovereignty (independence); (4) (Japan) withdrawing its troops; (5) signing an anti-communist agreement
Agreement; (6) China agrees with economic cooperation; (7) Guarantee not to hold the personnel of the Reform Government and Provisional Government accountable; (8) Make a separate agreement with Manchuria. These are the eight major conditions we have proposed. I hope you can seriously consider them.
"
Ogawa Heiyoshi said with disdain, "This is impossible. We can accept the first and last four points, but it is difficult for us to do the first four points. Moreover, we are here to express doubts about whether you will do the fifth point.
, Well, I know that your current policy is to resist Japan and dissolve the Communists. This is really unfriendly. I think you can change it to be pro-Japanese and anti-Communist. If you are willing to do this, we can first promise not to do anything else.
Offensive behavior. Otherwise..."
Liu Yunlong frowned and asked, "What else?"
Ogawa Heiyoshi chuckled without saying a word, and his meaning was self-evident.
Liu Yunlong thought for a while and said, "This matter has to be decided by Chongqing, but ensuring our territorial integrity is a prerequisite for negotiation. If this cannot be guaranteed, it will be difficult for us to continue the negotiation."
Ogawa Heiyoshi knew in his heart how much Tokyo wanted the peace talks to succeed, but he did not dare to return all the territory that the Army had worked so hard to gain to China. Not to mention what Tokyo would do, some crazy Army would definitely kill him.
Ogawa Heiyoshi said, "Well, as long as you make a gesture first, we can have a partial ceasefire, but our patience is limited, and I hope you will consider it carefully."
——Taiyuan
Yoshiko Kawashima carefully looked behind her to make sure that no one was following her. Then she entered the Huangliang Dream Hotel. After communicating with the clerk in a secret code, she came to a private room.
After a while, Zheng Geng came in, knelt down to Kawashima Yoshiko and said, "My slave, I would like to say hello to Princess, Princess Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose."
Yoshiko Kawashima hummed and said, "Get up quickly. Time is urgent. Let's get down to business. The Red Party has been making frequent moves recently. Although I haven't found out the entire combat deployment of the Eighth Route Army, they must be taking action. We must figure them out.
The main direction of attack is that once they win another big victory, we will be in danger."
Zhenggeng asked respectfully, "Does Gege have any ideas? I heard that the imperial army is now concentrated in Manchuria. As long as our intelligence is accurate, we will definitely be able to severely damage the main force of the Eighth Route Army."
Yoshiko Kawashima stood up, waving her hands and said, "That's what I mean, not only that, it's best to counterattack into Shanxi and drive the damn Red Party back to Shaanxi. The Red Party is developing faster and faster, although it is not
It may be comparable to Japan, but it is still a problem."
Zhenggeng shook his head and said, "It is really difficult to get accurate information. The Red Party focuses on dispersed guerrillas. No one can tell what they want to do until the last moment."
Kawashima Yoshiko smiled and said, "The soldiers and horses have not yet moved the food and grass. In the past, we were in the light and they were in the dark. It was naturally difficult for us to know. But now it is the other way around. You immediately ask our people to go to various checkpoints to count the number of people entering and exiting. This
Everything can be faked, but people cannot fake it. The Red Party likes to march at night, so you can’t just watch during the day, but also at night. Be more careful and dig out the information!"
What Yoshiko Kawashima didn't know was that not long after she entered the restaurant, her news reached Li Kenong's ears. Li Kenong squinted at the information in his hand and secretly made a plan in his heart.
--Germany
Chamberlain took a car and came to the Rhine region of Germany. Sitting in the car, he carefully observed the German people. He found that most of the people here were smiling, the market was prosperous, and they lived and worked in peace and contentment. They looked completely unprepared for war, and he felt slightly sad.
It’s settled.
As the head of state of the most powerful country on Blue Star at this time, Chamberlain knew clearly how weak this empire on which the sun never sets was. It was successively overtaken industrially by the United States, the Soviet Union, and Germany. If it weren't for the vast colonies and
With the support of a powerful navy, it is really difficult to maintain the current status. All Chamberlain can do is to use diplomacy to restrict these emerging countries. Thinking of this, Chamberlain couldn't help but recall the United Kingdom in his childhood. How could anyone dare to do so at that time?
As for provocation in the UK, times have changed really fast.
"Sir, we're here." The car stopped, and Chamberlain saw Hitler and other senior German officials waiting outside.
"Well, Hitler is still very sincere." Chamberlain walked out with a smile, waved to Hitler, and walked over quickly. Hitler also came up to meet him, and the two held hands together.
"Thank you, Mr. Hitler, for making me feel your Germany's yearning for peace."
"This is natural. We just want to get back what belongs to us, rather than taking away things that don't belong to us. I have prepared a small military parade for your arrival. I don't know if you will like it.
." Hitler said with a smile.
Chamberlain was stunned. He had not heard of any arrangements for the military parade, but looking at Hitler's look, Chamberlain understood that he could not escape this military parade. This was a threat to himself.
Chamberlain smiled and said, "Okay, let me see the majesty of your German army."
Everyone came to the high platform, and the audience stood outside the yellow line under the protection of the police. Hitler looked at the quiet audience below and nodded. This is also one of Germany's strengths. Chamberlain was about to speak, suddenly
A sound of footsteps was heard.
Chamberlain turned around and saw a red swastika flag and a red eagle flag slowly walking towards the high platform. Suddenly, deafening military music sounded, and he got closer...closer, and only saw people in black military uniforms.
The German soldiers walked over in neat steps. When they reached the high platform, everyone raised their hands and shouted to Hitler, "Hi! Hitler!"
Hitler also raised his hands in response, and all the people cheered. They walked past the phalanx one by one, first the infantry, then the artillery, looking at the 88 guns, S.K18 plus howitzers, and SFH18 howitzers one after another.
The cannon passed in front of him, pulled by the truck. Chamberlain's brows moved. Britain is an island country, so the army is not strong. He doesn't do much research on weapons, but he can see that Germany's armaments have already
Became stronger.
At this time, a special motor sound came, and one tank after another appeared on the street. This was the No. 1 and No. 2 tank phalanx. Chamberlain was not afraid when he saw it. After all, the No. 1 and No. 2 tanks were
The appearance can simply be described as cute.
At this time, another phalanx appeared. Chamberlain looked at the tank and couldn't help but stand up on tiptoes. The tank's thick and long barrel and the thick-looking armor caught his eye. This tank reminded him of
The British have not officially put into use the Matilda tank, but it seems that the German tanks are much better than the British tanks.
"What kind of tank is this?" Chamberlain asked.
Hitler proudly said, "This is our Panzer III tank. Look at its long barrel. It is designed to deal with the opponent's tanks. I believe that in front of him, any tank will become scrap metal."
"
As Hitler waved his arms vigorously, a group of planes flew in the sky, divided into two teams, and formed an "AH" shape, which was the abbreviation of Hitler.
Hitler walked off the stage, stood on the car, and kept waving his arms to the people, and the people responded to him with cheers. Looking at such a fanatical scene, Chamberlain couldn't help but compare each other, and found that whether it was Britain or France,
, do not have the unity and fanaticism of the Germans. If a war really breaks out, I am afraid it will be difficult for me to unite Britain.
Chamberlain couldn't help but have the idea of finding a British Prime Minister suitable for the war. His mind kept flipping through the big and small British figures, but finally stopped at a fat figure.
"Perhaps only that guy can persist in leading Britain to fight in the most difficult times." Chamberlain sighed and thought to himself.
Next, Hitler did not immediately hold negotiations with Chamberlain, but took him to participate in a joint military exercise by the Army and Air Force. When he saw a group charge of German tanks under the cover of artillery fire, as well as the continuous bombing of aircraft, Chamberlain's
His glasses almost fell off. He had never seen such a scene before.
At night, Chamberlain asked the officers around him, "Everyone has been watching for a day, do you have any ideas? Can our British or French army compare with theirs?"
An officer shook his head and said, "It's no comparison. Our strength lies in the navy. The French army is strongest in artillery, and it has a large artillery cluster. If a war breaks out, the Germans will be stopped by the Magilot Line and then destroyed by artillery. So
It is said that the strategic thinking is different and the emphasis is different, so it is difficult to compare."
Chamberlain nodded, indicating that he understood, and said, "Our goal is peace, not war, at least not a war against us. I hope this negotiation can succeed."
"But Prime Minister, our focus this time is on the Polish issue. Even if we reach an agreement with Germany, what should we do if the Poles don't agree?" a staff officer said worriedly.
Chamberlain snorted and said, "Poland is sandwiched between Germany and the Soviet Union. Wouldn't it be silly if we don't cherish the most favorable conditions we have obtained for it? Don't worry, they will definitely agree."
--Poland
Smigwie Rhodes, the dictator and ruler of Poland, was watching the news about the meeting between Chamberlain and Hitler.
He smiled and said, "Look, the Germans will surely succumb to the British, but we cannot take it lightly and must be prepared for war."
"Commander, our Poland is no longer the Poland it was back then. We can mobilize one million troops to fight at any time. Even if Germany or the Soviet Union attacks with all its strength, I think we can last for half a year or even longer." A staff officer said.
Said optimistically.
Smigwe Rhodes nodded, pointed at the map and said, "We now have less than 20 infantry divisions, which is absolutely not enough. We need to summon 40 infantry divisions within three months, and also form a civil defense composed of militia."
The battalion is divided into seven armies and deployed along the border. We need to build more fortifications to prevent German surprise attacks. How much armament do we have now?"
An officer stood up and said, "We have nearly 400 aircraft, 800 tanks and armored vehicles, and 11 cavalry brigades."
Smigway Rhodes smiled and said, "Having so many cavalry is enough. We can't just think about defense, but also attack. If Germany attacks us, Britain and France will definitely declare war on Germany. Then we can
Use our cavalry to launch a counterattack and bring the war to Germany."
Everyone was excited when they heard that the war was going to Germany. Then they discussed the key points of the operation one by one, and finally formed a defensive operation plan that focused on the front line. This operation plan laid the foundation for the tragedy of Poland later.
, and drew the foreshadowing.

After two months of rush work, Northern Risheng finally succeeded in industrializing a new generation of photovoltaic products. Jiang Cheng and Sun Ning were walking in the vast exhibition venue. The opening had not yet started, and the staff were nervously preparing.
"I said Sun Ning, why do you have to come too? I still have a lot of things to transport." Jiang Cheng asked with some confusion.
"You are the boss after all. If you don't attend, Beiyue will have crazy thoughts. In order to calm people's hearts, your presence is the best way." Sun Ning said, making slight adjustments to a few arrangements and said, "And you should also rest.
Come on, you've been shipping continuously for almost a month. If you don't take a break, the people over there who receive the goods should also take a break."
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but laugh as he said that. Five of the warehouses specially prepared for him were already full, and they couldn't be transported at all. This made Ren Chi and others feel pain and happiness. While transporting supplies desperately, they urgently built secret warehouses.
.
These warehouses are built in the mountains, and the transportation work is performed by trustworthy troops, so the movement has been slow. But thanks to Jiang Cheng's mechanical equipment, major factories have started to operate one after another, and several auxiliary industrial centers have also begun operations.
The prototype has just begun to take shape, and the Taiyuan Arsenal has begun the development of tanks and armored vehicles, and everything is developing rapidly.
