Because Xu Rui's long conversation with Cherev and Stilwell lasted until dawn the next day, if it weren't for the rapid march after dawn, Cherev and Stilwell might have continued the conversation, because they found that the exchange with Xu Rui was really beyond imagination and benefited a lot.
Many of Xu Rui's views on international politics, economics, and military affairs are sharp and novel, especially Xu Rui's bold prediction of the future world pattern, which makes Cherev and Stilwell excited.
Xu Rui dared to assert that Germany would definitely launch a war to unify Europe, and the time would be within a year or two, when Britain and France would inevitably declare war on Germany, marked by the declaration of war by Britain and France on Germany, World War II would officially break out, and then the Soviet Union and the United States would also be involved in the Second World Circle.
Xu Rui even more boldly inferred that the German army would launch a large-scale tank cluster blitzkrieg against the Soviet Union, and the Japanese Navy would also launch a surprise attack on the Pacific Fleet of the United States in the Pacific theater.
Because Guderian would practice Moltke's theory of tank cluster blitzkrieg in the Soviet-German war.
And the final result of the Soviet-German war also proved that in the plain terrain, the blitzkrieg of tank clusters was efficient and deadly!
However, the United States and the Soviet Union both have extremely strong industrial bases, so as the war deepens, the Soviet Union and the United States will successively win the initiative on the battlefield, and launch a counteroffensive against the Axis bloc led by Germany, Italy and Japan, and finally win, after winning World War II, the Soviet Union and the United States will replace the current world hegemon Britain and become a new generation of world hegemon.
Cherev and Stilwell were shocked by Xu Rui's description, but both of them had to admit that Xu Rui's analysis was meticulous and reasonable, and from the current situation, the possibility of the situation described by Xu Rui was very high, especially the Soviet Union, which had been preparing for war against Germany.
At the same time, Cherev must also admit that the Soviet Red Army did suffer from the chronic problem of tactical rigidity.
While the three of them were talking, Wang Husheng walked in again and urged: "Lao Xu, it's time to get on the road." β
"Got it, it's fine." Xu Rui waved his hand and said to Cherev and Stilwell, "Mr. Cherev, General Stilwell, I am not scaring you, the Soviet Union and the United States may win the final victory in this war, but both of you will pay unimaginable human sacrifices, so I have a better suggestion." β
Cherev and Stilwell looked at each other and said, "I want to hear about it." β
Xu Rui said: "If the United States and the Soviet Union want to win the war, they will have to pay unimaginable huge sacrifices, but we in China have an almost inexhaustible source of troops, so I suggest that after you return to China, you will make suggestions to your respective governments to increase assistance to our China. β
"Of course." Cherev said, "When I return home, I will make suggestions to Comrade Stalin. β
Stilwell also said: "At present, we are still isolationist in the United States, so I cannot give Commander Xu a definite answer, but I can guarantee that after returning to China, I will go all out to lobby the members of the House of Representatives and the Senate, and I also hope that the US Congress can pass the concession bill as soon as possible to give more military aid to the national government." β
"The Nationalist Government?" Xu Rui smiled and said, "General Stilwell, please forgive me for saying that the Nationalist Government is a bottomless black hole, no matter how much economic aid you provide from the United States, I am afraid it will not be of much use, and Mr. Cherev, you are also the Minister to China, and you must be very clear about all kinds of corruption in the Nationalist Government, right?" β
Cherev and Stilwell immediately fell silent, because Xu Rui was telling the truth.
Although it has only been a short 27-year period since the establishment of the Nationalist Government, the corruption in various bureaucratic organs is much more serious than that of Western countries, especially in the face of a national crisis like the present, and it is really incomprehensible that the vast number of wealthy people and the bureaucracy still have the intention to hide in the rear and get drunk and die.
Xu Rui continued: "General Stilwell, Mr. Cherev, I solemnly suggest to you, I hope you will take the time to go to Yan'an before returning to China, and have a close contact with our CCP in an all-round way, I firmly believe that after you leave Yan'an, you will have a new understanding of the situation in China." β
After a whole night of foreshadowing, Xu Rui finally revealed his final intention.
Xu Rui's ultimate intention is to win assistance from the United States and the Soviet Union for the CCP, especially American aid.
Whether it's self-sufficient or shameless, for the sake of the country and the nation, Xu Rui doesn't care.
If the United States wants to use China, why can't China use the United States? There has always been only interests between countries, and there has never been a so-called true friendship.
The United States provided assistance to China not out of friendship, let alone humanitarianism, but for its own interests, so that China could drag more Japanese troops and reduce the pressure on the US military in the Pacific theater.
What's more, this aid is never free, it has to be repaid!
Of course, Xu Rui would not be naΓ―ve to think that his words alone could affect the views of Cherev and Stilwell, and to take a step back, even if they really changed the concepts of Cherev and Stilwell, these two were afraid and powerless to change the China policy of the Soviet government and the US government, because they were just insignificant little people.
However, it is still the same sentence, even if there is only one in 10,000 chance, Xu Rui is willing to put in 10,000 efforts!
At this time, Wang Husheng walked into Xu Rui's tent for the third time and said, "Old Xu, why do you keep talking? β
"Alright, alright, that's it." Xu Rui stood up and said to Cherev and Stilwell, "Mr. Cherev, General Stilwell, you won't leave Dameishan for a while anyway, so let's talk about this today, and when we go home, let's talk in depth and detail, okay?" β
Cherev and Stilwell readily agreed.
Stilwell said as he packed up his things, "Commander Xu, can you borrow your radio station to use it?" β
Cherev also said: "Commander Xu, I also want to borrow your radio station to send a telegram to China. β
Xu Rui was probably able to guess why the two borrowed the radio, it was nothing more than to report the details of the Battle of Jiujiang to China, and last night, Xu Rui told him the process of taking the remnants of the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army to capture Jiujiang three times as it was, and Cherev and Stilwell were speechless when they listened.
At that moment, Xu Rui said: "Okay." β
Stilwell thanked them in unison.
(Dividing Line)
In the morning of the same day, Stilwell and Cherev's telegrams reached the United States and the Soviet Union respectively, and then they were published in the Associated Press and TASS, and commentators' articles were distributed.
The League of Nations, which was holding its congress at the Palais des Nations in Geneva, was also affected.
At that time, the League of Nations was holding a general meeting, and the topic of discussion was that the Nationalist Government requested the League of Nations to intervene in the Sino-Japanese War.
Speaking of this is really ironic, since 918, the Sino-Japanese war has lasted seven years, since the 77 Lugou Bridge Incident, China and Japan have been fighting for a year, and most of China has fallen, the vast territory has almost been burned red by the war, including the Communist Party of China, many democratic parties in China have declared war on Japan, but as the ruling party **** and the national government under the leadership of the ****, but has not yet declared war on Japan, and is still seeking the mediation of the League of Nations, This is one of the great wonders of world history.
During the presentation stage, the Chinese delegates, as always, played the sad card in order to win sympathy from the West.
The representative of Japan, on the other hand, was as tough as ever, claiming that the dispute between China and Japan should be resolved bilaterally between China and Japan, and that countries outside the region should not intervene in it (do you think this is a familiar statement?). Yes, that's right, this is also China's official statement on the South China Sea arbitration case, 30 years of feng shui turns, and now it's my home, of course, the South China Sea is China's inherent territory, and China has never invaded any country, which is different from little Japan).
Japan's representative to the League of Nations, Saburo Inukai, said in front of the representatives of more than 50 member countries: "I think it is necessary to reiterate once again that the military operations of the Imperial Japanese Army on the ground in China are not aggression, but only to liberate the 40,000,000 poor people in China from the exploitation and oppression of the corrupt Nationalist Government. β
After a pause, Inukai Saburo added: "It is an indisputable fact that the actions of the Imperial Japanese Army in China were strongly supported by the poor people of all China. β
After saying that, Inukai Saburo picked up the photo in front of him.
Although the content is different, the meaning expressed is only one, that is, Sino-Japanese friendship.
In the end, Inukai Saburo said proudly: "It is precisely because of the support of the common people that the Imperial Japanese Army has been able to win many battles and be invincible. β
However, before the words fell, the press releases of TASS and the Associated Press reached the Palais des Nations.
Listening to the press release of the Perfect Associated Press on the spot, Guo Taiqi, the representative of the Chinese Federation of Nations, suddenly raised his eyebrows and said to Inukai Saburo: "The so-called righteous teacher is invincible, and I will also send you this word."
