Chapter 42: Lobbying (3)

The small movements between Chiang Kai-shek and *** were not seen by Zhuo Fei, and he was following the steps agreed with his staff in advance to blow and destroy the confidence of the participants little by little. "To sum up, the strength of the Japanese army in the United States will eventually exceed 3 million, and even if I don't say it, you should all know it.www.biquge.info In the United States, since the end of the Civil War at home, there has been no war on the American mainland, and except for the worst World War, their army has basically not experienced the tempering of war. ”

"The heavy damage suffered by the Japanese Combined Fleet in the English Channel actually had little impact on the battle that broke out on the American mainland, after all, the west coast of the United States was firmly controlled by the Japanese army. In the face of the Japanese army's approach, all the United States can do is to recruit a large number of soldiers at home, but according to the information we have obtained, the US government is fully committed to this war, while ordinary people have questioned the government's ability, and even a large number of civilians have taken refuge in Canada in the east. ”

"The United States, unlike China, is a country where individual rights are paramount, and although the U.S. government has enacted wartime laws, their recruitment efforts have not been very smooth, and so far less than 1.2 million recruits have been trained in 140 boot camps in the United States." Zhuo Fei's words finally caused an uproar again, and the people attending the meeting did not expect that the Americans would directly choose to escape instead of actively serving their country in the face of the frantic attack of the Japanese army.

Zhuo Fei coughed lightly twice before continuing, "Actually, you can't blame those civilians for this, it's really that the performance of the U.S. military is too poor to give the people confidence. At the beginning of the Japanese landing on the west coast of the United States, if the US native troops had been able to go all out to engage the Japanese army at the first opportunity, perhaps the situation in the United States would not have been as embarrassing as it is now. ”

The Chongqing side also received the war reports related to the American war very early, and those who attended the meeting knew that the Japanese army that first landed on the west coast of the United States was only two divisions, with a total of more than 40,000 troops. However, the Japanese forward force of more than 40,000 people successfully broke through the west coast of the United States and successively defeated the American troops who came to meet the battle. Listening to Zhuo Fei's words, the participants had a preliminary understanding of the combat effectiveness of the US military, and in this comparison, they found that their new army units seemed to be much stronger than the US army.

"At present, the size of the Japanese army in the United States is less than 800,000, but as the Japanese government continues to transfer a large number of troops to the Americas, soon, before the 1.2 million recruits of the US government have completed their training, they will face more frantic attacks by more than 3 million Japanese troops. The U.S. military can still resist the Japanese attack with a steady stream of weapons and ammunition, but once the Japanese army can produce ammunition on a large scale on the U.S. mainland, the advantage occupied by the U.S. military will be lost. ”

"Therefore, now is not the time for us to live a small life behind closed doors, and the way to eliminate the danger is not to see the trick, but to nip the danger in the bud in advance." According to Zhuo Fei's instructions, a large stack of folders was distributed, and the word top secret on the cover of the folder finally brought the participants who had fallen into deep thought to their senses. "This is a joint operation plan, and if we want to prevent China from being invaded by Japan again, this joint operation plan is the best solution."

Hey, the participants who opened the folder had only read the first page and were already gasping in unison, they did not expect that the umbrella would come up with such a battle plan, and if they acted according to this battle plan, Japan would become a thing of the past. "That's right, we are going to launch an all-out campaign against Japan, and the umbrella has forced the Japanese government to make the decision to abandon its territory and withdraw to the Americas, but they still have a fluke mentality, and we must first defeat their luck."

"We must use a thunderous attitude and means to completely destroy the luck mentality of the Japanese, and whether or not they still think of returning to Asia one day after they withdraw from the Americas, we must let the Japanese know that there is no chance for them to gain a foothold in Asia." Zhuo Fei's waving right hand fell heavily on the tabletop, and the sound of his palm touching the table was like a heavy drum smashing into everyone's hearts, which made those who originally supported a complete truce shudder.

The joint battle plan that Zhuo Fei brought was carefully read by the participants, and seeing that Chiang Kai-shek and *** were silent, the participants knew that the two bigwigs had already shown an attitude of supporting Zhuo Fei, so when discussing the content of the battle plan, Zhuo Fei did not suffer too much trouble. It was only when discussing whether the joint forces should intervene in the war situation in Europe after the settlement of the Japanese mainland, and the participants, whether they were on the side of the Chinese Communist Party or the Kuomintang side, actually formed an alliance on a rare basis, and they all firmly stated that China should not intervene in the war in Europe.

"Listen to you and me first, and after everyone has heard my explanation, it's not too late for you to make a decision." At Zhuo Fei's suggestion, a new world map was hung, and on this map, which was painted in many colors, Southeast Asia was painted as black as Europe and the United States. The baton in Zhuo Fei's hand was on the red piece on the map, "Everyone, please see, this is China, I use red to represent it, and here is Europe and the United States, and this is the Middle East." ”

"According to your thoughts, once we take the Japanese mainland, we will not move forward, and we will not intervene in the war in Europe. So, I would like to ask you a question: how should we respond if the United States and Britain insist that we fulfill our obligations as members of the Allied Powers after we take Japan proper? If we refuse, it will be a failure to fulfill the responsibilities of a member state, which will be hostile to other member states, and once the German army takes the opportunity to cross Outer Mongolia to attack China, there will definitely be no other country to help China. ”

"This is Japan, and since the Manchu era, when the Europeans bombarded our country with warships and artillery, Japan has always had the support of European countries, and the only purpose of supporting them is to contain the development and growth of China, because if China grows up, the Europeans will lose a vast market where they can plunder wealth at will. From this, we can make a bold assumption: if the Japanese army fails to supply only the United States, and the Japanese government once again makes a groveling posture towards Europe and the United States, do you think Europe and the United States will support the Japanese in taking back their land from us? ”

Zhuo Fei's words once again detonated thunder, making the participants' hearts confused, the entanglement of interests between countries has always been only entanglement of interests rather than real friendship, the faces of European and American countries have been known to everyone as early as when the Japanese army brazenly launched the first Battle of Songhu, so they can't believe Zhuo Fei's bold speculation but can't believe it, because those shameless European and American countries can indeed do such a thing.

"There are a lot of sayings in China, such as sending charcoal in the snow or being in need, but people in Western countries don't understand the meaning of these words. Take our umbrella as an example, if it weren't for the fact that the umbrella has outstanding combat power and can help them contain the Japanese army's forces in Asia, perhaps the United States and Britain would not have looked at us squarely. In the eyes of Westerners, interests are the most important thing, and even former mortal enemies will become allies again for the sake of extremely tempting interests, which is the Western view of interests. ”

"Japan is like an appendage to China, and the best way for your descendants to stop being maliciously infringed upon by the Japanese is to completely lose the country's military strength for foreign expansion. We only need to garrison a large number of troops in Japan, and we can use slow fire to make the Japanese forget their original culture, and finally completely become a Chinese province that implements Han culture. ”

"Just like the Japanese did in the three eastern provinces?" Some of the participants echoed the sentiments.

"That's right, just like what the Japanese did in the three eastern provinces, with garrisons as a means of threat, we want the new generation of Japan to accept Chinese culture, write Chinese characters, speak Chinese, and even pass on customs according to Chinese traditions. In this way, in less than 20 years, the new generation of Japanese in Japan will completely forget their origins and completely integrate into the system of Han culture. After three generations, Japan will be gone, and it will be possible to become a province of China. ”

So far in the meeting, the participants have responded enthusiastically to Zhuo Fei's words, no one will think that China has an extra province, although Japan is an island country, but at least it is a territory. "Taking Japan will not only contain Japan, but also undermine the goal of Europe and the United States to contain China, and in this way, the East China Sea will become an inland sea under China's tight control, which will also be of great benefit to China's future naval formation."

In response to the various questions and doubts raised by the participants, Zhuo Fei tried his best to answer them positively, but the military and political meeting was also held for a long time. The participants, including Chiang Kai-shek, even ate lunch in the conference room, but fortunately, with the support of Chiang Kai-shek and Mao Erbi, the exhausted Zhuo Fei finally got the support of the vast majority of the people in the military and political council. After coordination and deliberation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party decided to transfer more than 1.6 million troops to Zhuo Fei's command, and Zhuo Fei served as the commander-in-chief of the war against Japan, and Lin Biao and Dai Anlan became Zhuo Fei's deputies.

The day after the meeting, Lin Biao and Dai Anlan rushed to Chongqing, and after a brief meeting with Zhuo Fei, the Kuomintang and Communist armies immediately began to frequently mobilize troops. According to Zhuo Fei's first step of the battle plan, Taiwan became the first target, the main attack was the New Fifth Army in the national army sequence, and the Qionghai detachment of the Communist Party of China served as the assist.
