Chapter 047: Teammates Are Used to Sell
The Soviet Union was anxious to launch such a large-scale offensive again after the Battle of Kamchatka, and Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov immediately met with the American ambassador and asked them to speed up their assistance and launch a more violent attack on Germany, preferably directly declaring war on China,
However, the first two are easy to say, but on the third day, the US ambassador directly vetoed it, and most of the Soviet Union cannot be saved at present, and when the Soviet Union dies, the United States can only face Germany alone, if war is declared on China now, China will inevitably attack North America from Kamchatka at that time, which is a lot of pressure on the United States, as long as it does not declare war, there is still a chance for China to remain neutral,
However, this does not mean that the United States is not in a hurry, the demise of the Soviet Union is the next step, and the situation will really be uncontrollable at that time.
The U.S. Congress, where President Truman and Marshall and others are sitting together to discuss the current situation,
Japan and the United States are still fighting fiercely in Australia, the Japanese rely on more people, and the United States relies on more arms, but at present, the United States still has a disadvantage, but it is not so easy for Japan to take it.
Truman walked to the podium, and the congressmen were silent,
"Mr. Vice President, Mr. Speaker, members of the Senate and House of Representatives, on October 3, the squadron once again launched a large-scale attack on the Soviet Union, according to the analysis, the squadron is probably trying to completely take West Siberia this time, if China's conspiracy succeeds, then the only industrial facilities west of the Ural Mountains of the Soviet Union will also be devastatedly bombed, and the Soviet Union needs us to provide supplies if it wants to continue to resist."
"As we all know, the contradictions between China and the Soviet Union have accumulated for hundreds of years, whether it is the Soviet Union or their predecessor Tsarist Russia doing bad things, seizing Chinese territory, massacring Chinese, plundering China's resources, the contradictions between the two countries are irreconcilable, although I myself have no good feelings for socialism, but I have no good feelings for the yellow race, everything they went turned into ashes, the Soviets were completely expelled, which violated social morality, this thing is anti-human, in addition, if the Soviet Union perishes, the United States will have to face the threat of Germany alone, Moreover, the yellow race may also take advantage of the fire to attack the Americas, and then our people, our territory and our interests will be in grave danger. ”
"America has reached an existential point, and we must defend our dignity, our freedom, our interests, and justice."
"Bang Bang ......" remembered the thunderous applause,
After the applause stopped, Truman continued: "Today we are here to have a vote, that is, to give up Australia, and exchange Australia for peace and time with Japan, although this is contrary to the decision of President Roosevelt and Congress, but we also have no choice, why we do this, please General Marshall tell you." ”
This time there was no applause, whispering below,
Marshall walked up to the stage and motioned for everyone to be quiet, and soon the congressmen quieted down.
"Gentlemen, now that a considerable part of the forces of the United States are contained by Japan, we cannot concentrate our forces against Germany, let alone fight against China, Japan is between China and the United States, and we do not even have the strength to clean up Japan, and it is unrealistic to want to cross Japan to fight against China."
"After the day our forces are contained in the Pacific Ocean, then we can only watch the destruction of the Soviet Union, when the time comes, Germany's millions of troops in the Soviet Union will be transferred to the Eastern Front, everyone think about what we are facing, how strong Germany's combat effectiveness is, we all know it, if Germany only needs to fight on one front, we need to fight on two fronts, even China takes advantage of the fire to rob, we also need to fight on three fronts, can we still be so comfortable at that time, I'm afraid that at that time the Chinese, the Japanese, The Germans will drop bombs on the United States, you don't know, China already has an aircraft with the same performance as our B29, it can carry 8 tons of bombs, as long as there are a few hundred planes, you can flatten New York to the ground in a day, but China has the ability to build tens of thousands. ”
The Americans have been taking the isolationist line, that is, they think that the United States has the protection of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and is very safe, and of course the United States has a strong navy is also a guarantee of their confidence, I didn't expect the world situation to be so dangerous now,
The Senate President said: "What does this have to do with us giving up Australia?" ”
Marshall said: "Of course, if we give up Australia, then we can sign a peace agreement with Japan, we can concentrate on dealing with Germany, aid the Soviet Union, our weapons and materials will continue to arm the Soviets, they can casually arm millions of young adults to participate in the war, if there are no them, we must recruit so many people in the United States to fight the war, I think no family wants their children or husbands to go to the battlefield where they can die at any time, and the other is that the Germans control the Soviet Union, Then these young men of the Soviet Union will be armed by Germany against us, and then we will need to recruit more soldiers to deal with them. ”
"May I ask if we cede Australia, will Japan give up its hegemony in the Pacific, and who can guarantee that they will not attack the Americas?"
Marshall said: "Everyone understands that in addition to Soviet Russia, the most hated by the Chinese is Japan, Japan in 1895 hundreds of China, in Lushun massacre, but also forced China to compensate 200 million taels of silver, occupied Taiwan and other islands, still under Japanese control, the Russo-Japanese War in 1905 was fought in northeast China, take out that the biggest victim of the war is China, in 1931 Japan forcibly occupied China's Manchuria, in 1937 Japan launched a full-scale invasion of China, almost destroyed China, If you think about it, if China attacked the Soviet Union, wouldn't it attack Japan, which did the same damage to them? ”
"Why did China attack the Soviet Union, the first is probably the historical grudge, they want to take revenge, and the second is to completely solve the problem of the northern border trouble, and from then on China will no longer have a threat from the north."
"Everyone is looking at Japan's situation is not the same as that of the Soviet Union, which is also one of the countries that hurt China the most, and is also next to China, as long as this country exists, it will always pose a threat to China, not to mention, China's road to the vast Pacific Ocean is completely blocked by Japan, and the Chinese will definitely not give up, and the Japanese also think so."
"Dissatisfied with everyone, in fact, since we had a stalemate with Japan in Australia, Japan sent people to contact us, and the exchange of Australia for peace just now was proposed by the Japanese, but the situation was not complicated at that time, and it was impossible for us to sacrifice the interests of the white people to beg for peace from the yellow race, not to mention the war provoked by the Japanese themselves, but today whether we want to or not, we must also sacrifice Australia, otherwise what awaits us is greater pain, compared to the United States, overseas places can be abandoned."
At this time, Truman added: "Gentlemen, if we can give up Australia, we should be able to draw Japan together against China, and then the situation in the world will be completely different, and when we settle Germany, we can clean up the yellow race." ”
Truman was very shrewd, when Japan withdrew from China, Chen Gong transformed the contradiction to the Soviet Union, and today as long as he withdraws from Australia, then he can easily transfer the contradiction to China.
At present, the naval strength of the United States is not something that Japan can deal with, and there are only New Zealand and some small islands between Australia and the Americas, and Japan's navy cannot compete with the United States at all, and if it wants to attack the Americas, it is better to attack the Asian continent.
However, according to Japan's situation, it is better to sit back and wait for China to fight, it is better to strike first, and no one will believe that China will not attack Japan, after all, it is so close that it is uncomfortable not to take revenge.
In short, as long as it can negotiate peace with Japan, basically the United States can be invincible.
"May I ask Mr. President, if we give up Australia, then how can we account to the Australian people, and it is also despicable to give up our allies."
Truman sneered and said: "I am the president of the United States, you are also Americans, I think we should all fight for the freedom and independence of the American nation, as for the Australians, we do not intend to give up the descendants of this group of criminals, if the peace agreement can be made, they are willing to stay, and if they are willing to come to the United States, we can also settle them, millions of people, we can still resettle." ”
"Also, if there is opposition, I hope that everyone can come up with a concrete solution to the crisis, and do not oppose for the sake of opposition, because the consequences of your opposition are not only the destruction of the American nation, but also whether the Japanese, Germans or Chinese come over, your family property is abundant, and you can only be robbed at that time, this is still good, if the Japanese come, you are not allowed to ** your wife and daughter, and then kill your whole family, so you should think carefully."
When Surrumman said this, everyone realized the seriousness of the problem, although everyone shouted freedom and equality every day, but that was without endangering their own interests.
If freedom and equality have to sacrifice all their net worth, and possibly their own families and their own lives, then forget it, and to hell with freedom and democracy,
Soon the voting began, and it would have been several rounds of voting for Truman and Marshall to have their goal, and they had prepared a lot of words to convince the congressmen, but when the results of the first round came out, they were shocked.
In the first round, there were only a few abstentions, two votes against, and all the others were in favor of sacrificing Australia and protecting the American mainland, Marshall and Truman looked at each other and smiled, very understanding, and in this way, Australia was sold to Japan by the Americans,
