Zhou Min still found an opportunity to tell Lu Wei and President Zhang about the Japanese Mission's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor.

As for whether the two of them will report further, the people above don't believe it, and whether they will tell the Americans or not has nothing to do with her.

She has already done everything that should be done, and history is not so easy to reverse.

December 7th. Japan is still the same as Zhou Min remembers. Shot at the United States, a sneak attack on Pearl Harbor.

When Chairman Chiang received the news of Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, he was very excited. Because he knows that Japan's crazy move will drag the giant beast of the United States into a world war.

"Mr. Fear, do you know how excited I am now? This Japanese Gang is really rampant, and he actually attacked the US Pacific Fleet. Doesn't this wake up the behemoth of the United States, I think Hideki Tojo is digging his own grave. ”

"That's right, Jiegong, I agree with you too much. This is indeed exciting news. When the United States enters this war, our chances of victory will be greater. ”

"By the way, we have been fighting Japan for so many years, and we have not declared war on Japan, right?"

"Really, Jiegong, if you don't say such a big thing, you will forget it. ”

"Weiwen, immediately notify the ambassadors of the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union to meet"

"Now?"

"Yes, right now, I guess the three of them won't be able to sleep tonight. ”

On the evening of December 7, it was close to midnight, and the ambassadors of the United States, Britain, and the Soviet Union arrived at Chiang Kai-shek's official residence.

"Ambassadors, please be seated. On behalf of the Chinese people, I would like to express my deep regret over Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in the United States, which just happened today. But this incident also shows that the world is now divided into two camps with clear barriers. One is the anti-*** Allies, and the other is the *** Axis. I, the government of the Republic of China, want to declare war on Germany, Japan, and Italy in the Axis powers. He also proposed the formation of an anti-*** coalition by the international community. ”

After listening to Chiang Kai-shek's remarks, US Ambassador Gauss was the first to say: "The Chinese Government's proposal is in line with the current international situation, and I believe that President Roosevelt will vigorously promote it." ”

"The proposal of the chairman coincided with the leader of the Soviet people, Comrade Stalin. Soviet Ambassador Pan Youxin continued.

"The Prime Minister's Office of our country has just sent a diplomatic telegram, which also expresses the same meaning as the Chinese government. "The last speaker was the British Foreign Secretary.

After listening to the statements of the three most powerful countries in the world today. Chiang Kai-shek suppressed the joy in his heart and continued: "For the upcoming anti-fascist alliance, the Chinese government proposes three principles:

First, the establishment of the Pacific Alliance and the General Command of the Coalition Forces, with the United States as the leader of the alliance.

Second, the Government of the Republic of China demanded that the United States, Britain, and the Soviet Union join us in declaring war on Japan.

Third, before the victory of the Pacific War, the countries of the alliance were not allowed to make peace with Japan alone. ”

The three ambassadors to China agreed with Chiang Kai-shek's three-point principle.

In a sense, from this moment on, China has also become one of the great powers and an important part of the anti-war alliance.

The Japanese were as excited as Chiang Kai-shek. The bombing of the US Pacific Fleet allowed them to find the thrill of revenge after being suppressed for many years. It's as if they've already won victory over the white race on behalf of the yellow race.

The command of the 11th Army of the Japanese army also urgently convened a military meeting.

Anan Wei looked around at everyone and said slowly: "The destruction of the US Pacific Fleet is exciting news. His Majesty's edict of declaration of war urges us to do something. This naval victory made Admiral Yamamoto Fifty-six known as the god of war. Our army from top to bottom held their breath and must achieve a more brilliant victory than the navy. ”

"Hayi"

"But now there is a saying that the Pacific theater is the first battlefield and the Chinese theater is the second battlefield. ”

"General, this statement is really short-sighted. For the Empire, the Chinese battlefield is the most important. ”

"Kanda-kun is right, the Chinese battlefield is far more important than the Pacific theater, and only by occupying China and making it our subject country can the empire have a chance to compete with Britain and the United States and eventually dominate the world. ”

"That's right, we have to stand on the Chinese battlefield. General, we should immediately go to the base camp and explain the importance of the Chinese battlefield. Chief of Staff Isamu Kinoshita suggested.

The corners of Anan Wei's mouth twitched slightly, shook his head and said: "We are soldiers, we don't need words, we have to use our great military exploits to tell the people in the base camp that China is the most important." ”

"General, if our 11th Army wants to make a difference, it must take Changsha. ”

"That's right, now Changsha is a banner of the Chongqing government. We must destroy it as soon as possible and destroy the will of the Chongqing government to resist. ”

"In order to achieve the same status as in the Pacific Theater, I suggest that Changsha should be attacked as soon as possible. "It was the commander of the 3rd Division, Toshima Botaro, who said this.

Seeing that everyone was excited, Kinoshita hurriedly said: "The plan for a new round of attacks on Changsha has been reported to the base camp, but it has not yet been replied to. “

"Nani, I haven't received a reply yet, don't the people in the base camp know how important Changsha is? This is a delayed warplane, do you really regard us as a second battlefield?" Kanda asked angrily.

"There's a reason why the base camp didn't approve the plan right away. The reason is that the base camp will transfer two divisions from our 11th Army to the south to support the Hong Kong campaign. In this way, our strength will be reduced from the original 120,000 to four divisions and regiments, with a total of 80,000 troops in one brigade. Perhaps the base camp was worried that we would not have enough troops, so they delayed approving the plan. “

Kanda directly said angrily: "Although we have 80,000 people, Changsha City is in chaos. Coupled with the encouragement of victory in the Pacific Theater, our 80,000 elites are enough to defeat Xue Yue. ”

Kinoshita was so angry by his words that he sat on the stool.

At this time, Anan saw that they were arguing about the same, and slowly spoke: "I agree with Kanda-kun's statement. According to intelligence, the 74th Army has been severely attacked by our army, and Li Yutang and Xue Yue of the 10th Army have had a great conflict, and now the 10th Army is also demoralized and has almost lost its combat effectiveness. In addition, the combat effectiveness of the 26th, 37th, 58th, and 99th armies cannot be fully restored. Therefore, although the opponent has an advantage in terms of soldiers, the overall strength and morale are still stronger on our side. ”

"General, in that case, why don't we go on the offensive right away?" said Kanda Masasan in a somewhat questioning manner.

"There is a cloud in the art of war, and only by knowing oneself and knowing the other can one not be defeated in a hundred battles. We need more information about the situation of the defenders in Changsha, and the Song organs are currently working on this. As long as there is more definite news, I believe that our attack on Changsha will be able to accomplish a successful battle. ”
