Chapter 583: Distribution of Benefits
Looking at the place where Su Jin pointed, Hull looked at him with some puzzlement and asked, "General Su, do you want this place on behalf of your government or do you want this place yourself?" ”
Su Jin didn't answer this question but asked rhetorically, "Is there a difference?" ”
"Absolutely!" Hull explained: "If you are asking for this place on behalf of your government, then you need your government to send a representative to talk to me, if you are asking for this place personally...... As a matter of principle, we do not engage in any situational negotiations with NGOs. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Alright, Mr. Hull, let's stop playing with words!" Su Jin interrupted Hull's words, "The Ryukyu Islands have been the sphere of influence of China since ancient times, and what I have to do now is to revive this tradition, in order to protect the people of the Ryukyu Islands from Japanese aggression, I think it is necessary to reintegrate this place into the arms of China, and not only that, I think it is necessary for us to have a long-term garrison in Japan to avoid the resurgence of Japanese militarist forces." ”
Hull pondered for a while and shook his head with a wry smile: "General Su, don't you think it's too early to do this?" Why don't we leave this issue to the post-war period, what do you think? ”
"No, we have to talk about it now!" Su Jin shook his head and said in an unusually firm tone, he is not a child, he still doesn't know what the Americans have in their hearts, in another time and space, the United States has more than 40,000 troops stationed in Japan, including the army, navy, air force, marines and other arms, which can be said to be complete with the army, navy and air force. The U.S. military occupied the Ryukyus and waited for me to hold the Japanese ****, and later generations will know that no matter how horizontal the Japanese are, they will not dare to bare their teeth at the Americans, otherwise as long as the Americans' hands are gently pinched, the Japanese will have to raise their hands and surrender.
Judging from the fact that Su Jin's demeanor immediately changed as soon as he mentioned that he wanted this place, although the Americans have not yet started a war with the Japanese, Su Jin estimated that Roosevelt already had a plan to deploy troops in Asia after the war, otherwise Hull's demeanor would not be so ambiguous, and in this case, Su Jin would not be able to give in.
I saw Su Jin say resolutely; "Mr. Hull, my condition is this, the Ryukyu Islands must return to the arms of the Chinese, my condition is this, if you agree then this matter will be fine, if you don't agree...... You can go back to the U.S. now! ”
Looking at Su Jin's resolute expression, Hull knew that this guy was by no means joking, and it was his turn to feel embarrassed at this moment......
On the lawn of the White House in the United States, looking at the telegram just sent by Hull, Roosevelt felt a little headache, and he muttered bitterly: "This little guy really gave us a problem!" ”
Vice President John on the side said: "Mr. President, I just looked at the world map, although the area of the Ryukyu Islands is not large, but the geographical location is very important, as long as you occupy this place, it is equivalent to grasping the key points of the Japanese, that Huaxia general can see this is really not simple, it seems that he is planning for the post-war ah, does he also want to control Japan?" ”
"No, I personally think that this Huaxia general is more about finding a way back for himself." Roosevelt's top aide Stephen Hawking said suddenly.
"Oh, why do you say that?" Roosevelt asked with interest.
"It's simple." Hawking first looked around the faces of the crowd before saying: "I have been in China for five years, and I have found that people in this country have a characteristic, that is, they like to save money. Rich landlords or wealthy people like to put precious metals such as gold and silver in jars and bury them in their backyards or hidden cellars, and even the poor will secretly hide some money on their bodies. I have asked many Chinese people about this very curiously, and they told me that it is to deal with emergencies, in the words of Chinese people, it is to take precautions. From this point of view, the same is true of the Su general in Huaxia, whose idea of attacking the Ryukyu Islands is precisely because of the insecurity in his bones. ”
"Insecurity!" John asked puzzledly: "Now he is a powerful local warlord, with more than 100,000 troops under his command, and even an elite air force, you say that he has a sense of insecurity, is this possible?" ”
"Of course it is!" Hawking affirmed: "Mr. John, there is an old saying among the Chinese people, anything is possible. Today's glory does not mean that it will continue to be glorious in the future, and his relationship with the supreme leader of the Chongqing government is not as harmonious as it seems, and they will definitely have a conflict after the war, so he asked us for the Ryukyu Islands to leave a way out for himself. ”
"Alright, this is here beforehand!" Roosevelt stretched out his hand to signal the two sides to stop the dispute, and he sighed and said: "No matter what that person plans now, now that his conditions have been made, everyone says that we should agree to his conditions?" ”
"I don't think there's anything wrong with that." John shrugged his shoulders and said, "Although we in the United States also have a lot of interests in Asia, I don't think there's anything wrong with dividing a small archipelago to the Chinese. ”
"I think so, too." Hawking also nodded: "Although I think that the United States should also seek interests in Asia after the war, Japan is so big, as long as the Japanese are defeated, we naturally have no shortage of garrisons." ”
Although Roosevelt is known as one of the greatest presidents of the United States in the 20th century, he was not a god, and naturally he did not know how important the Ryukyu Islands were to the United States half a century later, when almost all the American troops in Asia were concentrated. In order to curb the rise of China, the Americans almost desperately piled up their fleets there, and in the current view, it is indeed as John and Hawking said, to give up a future benefit that they do not know whether they can get to solve an imminent problem, this choice question is naturally easy to solve, so a secret agreement is released.
When Su Jin saw this agreement written in Chinese and English, he showed an irrepressible smile on his face, and he reviewed it himself, this agreement clearly stated that if Japan was defeated after the war, the United States agreed to hand over the Ryukyu Islands to the jurisdiction of the Nationalist Government represented by Su Jin, and in exchange for Su Jin to send no less than 100 planes and pilots to Britain to defend against the German invasion until the Germans stopped the Sea Lion Project, and Roosevelt's autograph was attached to the end of the agreement.
Seeing this, Su Jin remembered the letter written by Roosevelt himself, and thought maliciously: In another half century, if his children and grandchildren can't get along, maybe he can make a fortune by taking these two letters out for auction.
He took a pen from his jacket pocket, wrote his name on it, and handed one of the agreements to Hull, which was officially in effect. Su Jin said to Hull: "Mr. Hull, since the agreement has been signed, then from today this agreement will be officially effective, I will be ready within two days, and I can set off the day after tomorrow!" ”
Seeing that Su Jin was so crisp this time, Hull paused slightly and then said gratefully: "General Su, I thank you for the British Royal Air Force, which is fighting hard against the Nazi Air Force in the British Channel!" ”
Su Jin smiled slightly: "You're welcome, since we signed the agreement, then we are allies now, and we should help each other!" ”
Listening to Su Jin's words, Hull secretly rolled his eyes, he still clearly remembered how this product defrauded the U.S. government of 60 million US dollars. However, even if the US government knows that it has been taken advantage of by this guy, it can only stare dryly, who made the French so uncompetitive, and in just one month's effort, a powerful country with more than two million land forces surrendered to the Germans, this kind of thing is probably also a miracle in the history of world warfare.
Sending away Hull, who was not in a good mood, Su Jin found Zhou Yusheng and handed him the agreement. Zhou Yusheng sighed and asked, "Sir, is it worth exchanging such a big price for such an agreement?" ”
Value ...... Worth it absolutely! Su Jin replied categorically, if the Yankees of later generations were willing to hand over the Ryukyu Islands to the Huaxia government to govern, let alone a hundred planes and pilots, and the Huaxia government would not blink a brow even if it was ten times more, and it could be said that it had already made a lot of money by paying such a price.
Su Jin said solemnly: "Chi Yu, this Ryukyu Islands has been a vassal country of our China since ancient times, its geographical location is very important, as long as we occupy here, it is equivalent to choking seven inches of Japan, and even if the Japanese want to make ghosts, they will not be able to make any waves, so Mo said that he just sent a hundred planes to the UK to help, even if it is two hundred, I will not frown." And ......" Speaking of this, Su Jin originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he shook his head and didn't say anything.
Zhou Yuchang let out a long sigh: "Okay, since you have made up your mind, then I won't say anything, but what are you going to send that troop?" ”
Su Jin thought for a while before saying, "Transfer one squadron from each of the three flying regiments, and then transfer a thunderbolt squadron from the newly formed squadron to make four squadrons!" Tell the brothers, don't lose the face of our Chinese soldiers when you arrive in the UK, you must show our prestige, and don't let the British underestimate us. ”
For this air battle in the English Channel, Su Jin naturally knew how cruel it was, in another time and space, the Germans put in 2669 aircraft, while the British had less than 800 aircraft, and the two sides had a fierce air battle on the rough sea, this air battle can be called the most brutal air battle in World War II, and finally because the German air force suffered heavy losses, Hitler had to order the suspension of the Sea Lion program. Although Su Jin was also reluctant to send his best pilots to a foreign land to work for the British, he still made this decision for the long-term interests of the post-war period.
