Chapter 034: What is good for you is not necessarily a friend

Stilwell listened carefully to Wang Hanzhang's words, and after Wang Hanzhang finished speaking, Stilwell said: "What Your Majesty said I will report to the United States, and the specific can only be approved by the U.S. government." ”

Wang Hanzhang said: "Okay, but General Stilwell, I must state once again that we will not interfere with India's affairs, and we do not want to be calculated by the British anymore." As long as we don't go to India, everything else can be discussed, and we also want to have a fleet to ensure the safety of the coastal ports, and when the time comes, we can also prevent the Japanese navy from sneaking up on the supplies, and sometimes the fleet can also cooperate with the landing. ”

Stilwell nodded while listening, and after the conversation, Wang Hanzhang arranged for Stilwell to rest, and Stilwell used the radio he brought to contact the American side to report the results of the negotiations.

Roosevelt soon got Stilwell's report, Stilwell saw that Wang Hanzhang repeatedly insisted on not going to India, not mixing with India's affairs, he was very satisfied, if Wang Hanzhang immediately agreed, Roosevelt was still more worried, China is one of the four ancient civilizations, has been leading the world, from the Southeast Asia several battles, China has a faint rise trend, although now with the United States is not comparable, but in case there is a strong leader, then China may rise soon, Wang Hanzhang seems to be such a person, The fact that the platoon commander of a petty ensign platoon became the king of a country at least a year ago speaks to his talent.

Roosevelt believed that after the United States defeated Germany, it would be Soviet Russia, and then it would be China, and that China had the advantage of civilization and a rich civilization, and it was definitely not comparable between Germany and Soviet Russia, and unless the United States could defeat China, then the United States could dominate the world forever.

Roosevelt calculated the aid requested by Wang Hanzhang, calculated the gains and losses, now aid China, it is impossible for China to grow into a superpower now, after all, China lacks too many elements of industrial society, and now aiding China will not only help defeat Germany, but also use China to suppress Soviet Russia in the future, in addition, China now has the military strength to fight the Japanese army, so if the millions of Japanese troops on the Asian continent can really be wiped out, then the United States will know much more about the pressure of attacking Japan in the future, and the Americans will die a lot.

For the United States, human life is more important than anything else, so Roosevelt can still accept Wang Hanzhang's request in his heart, but he must discuss it with Marshall.

And Marshall also agreed, "Mr. President, I think that Wang Hanzhang of the Qin State is more reliable than the Chongqing government, their troops can really fight, and they don't want Chongqing to be so **, don't their laws require officials to declare their own property, which shows the clarity of their officials' rule, we don't have to worry about the materials we aid being embezzled and sold by the corrupt officials in Chongqing, and even sold to the Japanese to deal with us." ”

Roosevelt said, "Then you agreed?" ”

Marshall said: "Of course, if the Qin army can really destroy the millions of Japanese troops on the Asian continent, then we will have a few million opponents, and our American soldiers will have at least hundreds of thousands fewer casualties, and when we attack Southeast Asia and the Pacific region, we can even ask the Qin State to send personnel, we will provide technology and equipment, and I believe that the American people are happy to see this."

Roosevelt thought for a moment and said, "Then what do you think of the fleet that Qin wants from the state?" ”

Marshall said: "If you want Qin to better fight the Japanese army, I think it is necessary to have a fleet, otherwise the transportation security in the Indian Ocean cannot all depend on us, Qin is now the head snake in the East Indian Ocean, give him a fleet, and give them the responsibility, the United States is unlikely to have too much energy to manage the affairs of all the seas in the world, at least not yet." ”

Roosevelt said, "Then give him a fleet, and you can decide the scale." ”

Marshall said: "Okay, but Mr. President, I have another idea in the fleet, Wang Hanzhang didn't ask for much, we support Britain and the Soviet Union to send a few ships to him, but I want to give Qin another aircraft carrier." ”

When Roosevelt heard this, he spit out the coffee that was still in his mouth, he couldn't believe that it was Marshall who said it, what kind of joke was given to an aircraft carrier!

Marshall knew Roosevelt could not understand, so he explained: "As Mr. President's partner for many years, as an American, I know what America has been striving for. If we all do what Qin State wants, then Qin State will be like a tiger with wings, but if we give less, it may affect the current war situation at that time. Give him an aircraft carrier, then the aircraft carrier naturally has planes, the Qin State has just been founded, the mainland has been hit hard by artillery fire, and the population is also small, if we give him a fleet with aircraft carriers, on the surface the United States has suffered great losses, but the significance is far-reaching. ”

"The aircraft carrier fleet is a money-burning thing, if the Qin State has an aircraft carrier fleet, even if the war is over, the Qin State is bound to maintain the continued existence of the aircraft carrier fleet, but the national strength of the Qin State is not strong for the time being, so in order to maintain the existence of the fleet, he will inevitably draw money for the development of the economy to maintain the fleet. Their rise will be slower, and they will even miss the time to rise. ”

When Roosevelt heard Marshall's words, he suddenly realized that he was really a fan of the authorities! Marshall is right, in fact, to attack the enemy, it is not necessary to directly confront and blockade, and it is also possible to maliciously lead the opponent astray.

Roosevelt said to Marshall: "In terms of technology, you can give them some relatively advanced technology, the current war situation is still unclear, and there are a lot of more advanced technologies in our research institute, don't be afraid." ”

After Marshall and Roosevelt finished discussing, he immediately sent a telegram back to Stilwell, who looked at the telegram and did not expect that the US government would give more than Wang Hanzhang.

As for the above request for Qin to declare war on Germany, Stilwell believes that it is no longer possible, none of the allied countries recognize Qin, but the European countries led by Germany have recognized Qin, if Qin declares war with these countries, then Qin will be completely isolated in the world, and Wang Hanzhang will definitely not do that. Fortunately, the U.S. government just asked him to give it a try, it doesn't matter if it works or not, the important thing is that Qin can work hard to attack Japan.

Stilwell quickly informed Wang Hanzhang of the resumption of the US government, Wang Hanzhang did not expect things to go so smoothly, and in addition, the fleet aided by the United States actually had aircraft carriers, which was a real fleet, 1 aircraft carrier, 2 cruisers, 3 destroyers, 6 submarines, torpedo boats, gunboats, and minesweepers.

Wang Hanzhang didn't know when the Americans were so generous, and the 500 planes that Wang Hanzhang needed were given to 100 first, and the rest was delivered slowly. There is no problem in terms of technology and equipment, and the United States does not restrict Qin from purchasing machinery and equipment in the United States, Wang Hanzhang feels that things are definitely not so simple, this is not the United States that is unprofitable and cannot afford to be early, not to mention that the United States is the country with the strongest business atmosphere, everyone only has interests in their eyes, and politics and military are completely for economic interests.

"General Stilwell, your country is so generous, I'm afraid there must be something to ask for, right?"

Stilwell smiled and said: "It's really not, what we value in increasing our assistance to the Qin State is the strong combat effectiveness of the Qin army, if you can kill the Japanese, then the casualties of the American soldiers will be much smaller, so it is appropriate to send some supplies, and the American people are willing to exchange these materials for the lives of hundreds of thousands or even millions of American soldiers." In addition, we were reluctant to give too much aid to the Chongqing government before, the reason is not that we don't want to help, but that the Chongqing government is too good, and many materials are either swallowed and sold by those officials, or put in warehouses, and there are not many to the front line, so it is meaningless for us to help more. ”

"If the Chongqing government could have taken all the supplies to fight the Japanese at that time, we would definitely have more supplies, but unfortunately they didn't, but the Qin State is different, the Qin State is governed by the Qing Dynasty, and unlike China, which is messy, there is no government that absolutely counts, and the Qin State is under the complete control of His Majesty, plus the previous battles have proved the strength of the Qin State, so we are willing to believe in your country."

"In this way, I understand, rest assured, how can I say that Japan still occupies so much territory in China, China is the guarantee of its own northern security, only when China is safe, can our country avoid aggression from the northern Soviet Union and Japan, so we will not waste American materials, your material efforts will definitely be rewarded, I believe we will soon be able to attack the Japanese mainland," Wang Hanzhang swore and promised.

Stilwell felt that it was still necessary to mention the matter of Qin declaring war with Germany, "Oh...... It suddenly occurred to me that the U.S. government still had a small request, that is, it wanted your country to declare war on Germany. ”

Wang Hanzhang didn't think about it: "This can't be done, the allies have not recognized their own country, strictly speaking, the Qin State is not a country in your country or the serious people of the allies, and our declaration of war on Germany cannot bring any benefits to the allies, let alone the Qin State." In the most difficult time of Qin, Germany recognized Qin, so it is impossible for the country to be an enemy of Germany, even if it is only a nominal declaration of war, for the war in Europe, Qin will remain neutral and will not participate in any party to attack the other, but if someone wants to provoke Qin first and attack Qin, then Qin will definitely fight back, so I also hope that General Stilwell will help convey Qin's position, otherwise when the time comes, kill tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands of troops, but don't blame me for not reminding me. ”

Stilwell smiled awkwardly and said, "Forget it, don't mention this matter, we'll defeat Japan first." ”

Wang Hanzhang may not have insisted on Stilwell, knowing the bottom line of the Americans, Wang Hanzhang said: "When will no aid arrive?" We also hope to launch a counteroffensive as soon as possible, after all, the time has dragged on for a long time, and then the situation does not know how to change. ”

Stilwell said: "I don't know the specifics, but it will definitely be soon, and we also hope that your country can attack the Japanese army on the battlefield, at least drag the Japanese army, and stop making any tricks in India or even the Middle East." ”――
