From the first time the Burma Front encircled and annihilated the Japanese army, because of the lack of materials at the beginning, the combat effectiveness of the remnants of the Japanese army was also extremely strong, and it was impossible to annihilate them instantly, especially when there was a shortage of materials.

In the following months, although there was also a plan to seize Rangoon, but the British repeatedly engaged in behind-the-scenes actions, the Japanese army strengthened the defense, and the British supplies were always untimely, and later the expeditionary force was receiving American-style training, and the unified replacement of American-style equipment made the expeditionary force more dependent on foreign aid, and the actions of the British made the expeditionary force have to defend.

At the end of October, the Japanese army had no major moves in the Pacific, and the next target of the Japanese attack was definitely Burma, and attacking Burma was the established strategic goal of the Japanese army, and from that point of view, he had to seize Burma.

The Japanese army once again turned its attention to Burma, China, the United States and Britain all felt it, Wang Hanzhang was also very anxious, Wang Hanzhang was anxious because if the Japanese army took the initiative to attack, then the squadron was limited in strength, and the equipment could not be compared with the American army, and the training was not as good as the Japanese army.

In addition, there is another point, the British are all in Europe, although they still occupy India, but the British only care about the taxes and materials here, the Japanese propaganda in India, so that countless Indians are looking forward to the Japanese coming, if Japan really lands in India, Wang Hanzhang is very worried that the British will not be able to resist the Japanese offensive, and the resistance of the Indians.

Wang Hanzhang also discussed his ideas with Wei Lihuang, Stilwell and Chiang Kai-shek, tactically speaking, the squadron is better at defense, and now the fortifications have been built for several months, and the fortifications are very strong, if they rely on the fortifications to fight with the Japanese army, then the Japanese army will definitely suffer heavy losses.

But strategically speaking, the Japanese army's navy, land and air force are complete, and the combat effectiveness is very strong, if you wait for the Japanese army to attack, the squadron needs to defend everywhere, the reason why the last time it was able to win, it was completely because of two stratagems, Wang Hanzhang and others couldn't believe that the Japanese would still give the squadron a loophole, not to mention that Wang Hanzhang didn't come up with any tricks to deal with the devil now.

Therefore, Wang Hanzhang hoped to take the initiative to attack from a strategic point of view, so that the Japanese army might be led by the squadron and not be able to complete their battle plan.

Of course, the premise of all this is that Chiang Kai-shek's support is needed, and his approval must be obtained, because Wang Hanzhang hopes that the domestic battlefield can be attacked at the same time, attract the strength of the Japanese army, and at the same time recover the lost territory if necessary, this is a very big plan, only Chiang Kai-shek can do it.

In addition, the cooperation of Britain and the United States is also needed, the squadron needs supplies too much, and if there is no supply, then the American-style equipment is not as good as the big blade, and the combat plan of the Chinese Expeditionary Force must be difficult to ride.

Wang Hanzhang exchanged views with Stilwell on the consequences of the loss of Burma, the latter waiting for the consequences of the Japanese army's active attack, and after the last experience, Stilwell's posture was much lower and less arrogant.

Stilwell believed that Wang Hanzhang's idea was very likely, so he was willing to try his best to persuade the United States to increase aid, especially to ensure that the supplies could reach the expeditionary force on time, so as to ensure the expeditionary force's battle plan.

Wang Hanzhang also spent a long time convincing Chiang Kai-shek, Chiang Kai-shek has been losing ground in recent years, and has not recovered any lost land, so he also hopes to use this to recover some lost land, and today consumes more Japanese troops, so the big counteroffensive will come early, and the victory of the Anti-Japanese War will be faster, and Chiang Kai-shek does not want to always be a regional central government.

It turns out that he is the central government, and since Japan came, most of the country has been occupied, and it is really in his hands, if he does not take it back, then he will be stinking for 10,000 years in the future.

Similarly, Chiang Kai-shek agreed to this plan because the steel plant had been put into operation, and a series of American-aided arsenal supporting factories had been put into production one after another, China's situation was much better than before, and the equipment support of the United States could be said to be additional, since there was such an opportunity, no one did not want to prove themselves, and if they wanted to surrender, they did not have to wait until now.

Chiang Kai-shek also asked Soong Meiling to negotiate with the U.S. government, hoping to get material guarantees, as long as the plan goes well, the strategy of the Allies in the Asia-Pacific region will be completely reversed, and then the squadron can turn to the counteroffensive and drive Japan out of China, while the United States attacks in the Pacific, the two sides complement each other, Japan is small and has few resources, even if the soldiers are heroic, in the era of hot weapons, bayonets are not able to confront aircraft and artillery, how long can Japan support it at that time?

Roosevelt received a telegram from China, as well as a proposal from Stilwell and others, and immediately summoned his right-hand man Marshall, Roosevelt still advocated Europe first and then Asia, the reason is that Germany has strong scientific and technological strength and national strength, especially Germany is researching the atomic bomb, Roosevelt knows how powerful this thing is, so he hopes to defeat Germany first, and although Japan is also researching, Japan has no relevant resources, and it is impossible to study it, so even if China surrenders, although it is dangerous for the United States, However, with Japan's national strength and manpower, it will still be difficult to defeat the United States.

Marshall knocked on the door and came in, this is not only Marshall's habit, of course, but also afraid of disturbing Roosevelt, don't look at Roosevelt is a cripple now, but Roosevelt is the most famous pervert in American history, and he has several lovers in the White House, but everyone knows it.

After Roosevelt sat Marshall down, he showed Marshall the telegrams from China and Stilwell, and after a few minutes, Roosevelt said to Marshall, "What do you think, Marshall?" ”

Marshall said to Roosevelt: "Your Excellency, if the Chinese's plan is successfully implemented, it will have a great impact on the allies, and I think the victory process will be greatly accelerated." ”

Roosevelt said: "Actually, I prefer to first Europe and then Asia, first solve the strong enemy of Germany, and then solve Germany first, we are dealing with Japan, I think we should keep Japan, and use it to contain China in the future, if we beat Japan down first, when dealing with Germany, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to control China." ”

Marshall said: "Then Mr. President means to contain China now, not to give China a chance to rise, and then to keep a mortal enemy for China?" ”

Roosevelt said: "Yes, I think that as a nation that has led the world for 5,000 years, there are only four ancient civilizations left of them, this nation is very terrible, it was not defeated by the Japanese when it was weakest, and it is a matter of time before it rises in the future, and we must plan for the future of the United States." ”

Marshall said: "Then Mr. President, why do you want to help China build steel plants and arsenals? ”

Roosevelt said: "If China wants to rise, there is no way to do it in forty or fifty years, but Japan is a threat close at hand, if China surrenders, then Japan and Germany may meet in the Middle East, and then our contact with Soviet Russia will be cut off, especially the materials cannot be transported to Soviet Russia, and in the face of the joint attack of the Axis powers, it is estimated that it will not last long, then Britain will surrender soon, and the world will really only have us the United States, and I am afraid that there will be no way to defeat it at that time!" You know that we are a country of immigrants, and if the rest of the world falls, then those immigrants probably won't have the heart to stay in the United States, let alone join the army to fight, I'm afraid that the Axis powers have not yet come, and the United States itself will collapse. In addition, after defeating the Axis powers, the rise of Soviet Russia can no longer be stopped, but we must assist them, at least defeat the Axis countries first, as for the future threat, there will naturally be a way to deal with it in the future, Soviet Russia and our system is different, China and our races are different, religious beliefs are different, and they are both vast and rich, as long as there is enough time for development, they will inevitably challenge the hegemony of the United States. ”

"Marshall, you see, Soviet Russia will soon become our opponent, he will share the earth with us equally, although our industrial technology is leading, but the difference between the Easterners and the Westerners is that as long as they have a word from the leader, there will be no one to impeach tens of millions of people, if this happens in the United States, even if they don't make a big mess, I'm afraid the president will be ousted down, isn't it, the population of Soviet Russia is about the same as the United States, the land area is twice that of the United States, and it is still actively expanding, in fact, I help China develop basic industries, It is to confront Japan now, and it is also to help us contain Soviet Russia in the future, hasn't Soviet Russia always supported agents in China, if China becomes an ally of Soviet Russia, then Soviet Russia will share the Pacific Ocean equally with the United States. ”

"Marshall, support China to contain Soviet Russia, but China itself will also develop, it is estimated that when we bring Soviet Russia down, China will rise, but the fallen polar bear must have a hostile attitude towards the United States, and will not work with us to contain China, so we must support other countries around China to fight against China and block the squadron at home."

Marshall said, "Okay! Your Excellency, I'm a little dizzy right now, and you seem to be very conflicted. ”

Roosevelt said: "Marshall, in fact, there is no contradiction, our goal is only to maintain the world hegemony of the United States, without rivals, to spread the American civilization and system to the world, so that the world can accept our transformation." ”

Marshall said: "I understand, but do we support China or not?" ”

Roosevelt said: "If you don't support it, it may be really troublesome, it's better to support them this time, you think of a way to let China win this war, to ensure that Britain will not lose India, you know that Britain lost India, it is estimated that it will surrender." The other is to let China win a miserable victory, and if necessary, I want Japan to reveal the information of the squadron. In short, what I want is that China, Britain, and the Soviet Union will neither surrender nor win a big victory, and what we need is to establish the world hegemony of the United States after the war and make the world American. Therefore, it was important to ensure that Japan surrendered after Germany. ”

Marshall smiled and said, "Mr. President, you have given me a problem, and it really stumped me." ”

Roosevelt smiled and said, "Marshall, the American people will definitely thank you for what you did today." ”

Marshall said: "Well, it seems that the charm of the name in history tempted me, and I tried. ”
