"In one day?" MacArthur's eyes widened in disbelief: "Are you sure?" ”

Jiang Baili looked at MacArthur noncommittally with a faint smile on his face.

There is nothing to answer, for myself, this is just a small skill of carving insects. Whether Americans believe it or not, it doesn't affect anything at all.

"Paper paper what?" MacArthur forgot what the Chinese had just said.

"On paper," an interpreter whispered on the side.

"Yes, on paper, everything will not be tested until the real war." MacArthur restarted his pipe.

But in his expression, the arrogance was significantly reduced

"Chief of Staff, this American is so arrogant." Walking out of the classroom, Jiang Baili's secretary whispered.

Jiang Baili still smiled and did not answer.

Arrogant Americans, if they have the opportunity in the future, will let you know what a real war is, what it is like to be a qualified commander who strategizes and fights a decisive battle for a thousand miles!

Jiang Baili doesn't like to argue with others about anything, and everything will be tested on the battlefield......

This was a small episode of the Chinese delegation's visit to the United States, and it should not jeopardize Sino-US cooperation.

On August 11, Cheng Biguang, commander-in-chief of the Chinese Navy, signed nine agreements with the United States on behalf of the Chinese Navy, including the "Sino-US Naval Cooperation Agreement...... and the "Republic of China's 1920~1922 Procurement Agreement with the United States".

At the same time, the Chinese and US navies jointly announced:

In May and June 1921, two joint military exercises of the Chinese and US navies were to be held, codenamed "Operation Thunder 192".

Comprehensive cooperation between the Chinese and American navies begins!

On the same day, Jiang Baili, chief of staff of the Republic of China, and Newton D. Baker, chief of the US Department of War, signed eight agreements, including the "Sino-US Military Cooperation Agreement" and the "Far East Security Agreement."

At the same time as the Chinese and US navies hold joint military exercises, Chinese and US marines will also join the military exercises.

At the same time, China's foreign ministers and commercial affairs ministers are also engaged in busy negotiations.

One agreement after another was signed, and one draft after another was released. A great deal of cooperation is in full swing. Military, Political, Economic...... China and the United States are working closely on all fronts!

The honeymoon period in China and the United States has begun.

Wang Hengyue did not intervene in it, his subordinates were more capable of handling these things than himself.

He is more concerned about the several military exercises that will begin next year, which will be the first time that the Kuomintang has held a joint military exercise with a foreign country, which is of great significance.

Comprehensive cooperation with the United States has just begun, and the honeymoon period has just begun. Although there will be minor conflicts during the honeymoon period, this does not prevent the two parties from cooperating. Although no one knows whether they can "grow old", at least now they have one more reliable ally for each other at this stage.

And at this time, Wang Hengyue met with the next president of the United States, Woodrow, Wilson's successor, Warren G. Harding.

Their meeting was more dramatic, and Harding, the next president of the United States, suggested that the two sides have a poker game to relax the atmosphere of the meeting.

For the famous "poker president, the little "Poker President" and the worst president in the United States, ......" Wang Hengyue accepted the invitation with a smile.

"I think China can completely ignore the threat from Japan." Harding looked at his hole cards and threw two chips: "A small country can't set off much of a storm, and Mr. President doesn't have to take it to heart at all." Ten dollars. ”

"Ten dollars with you, ten dollars bigger than you." Wang Hengyue didn't look at his hole cards: "A flea leaning on your body will always make you itch all over your body, make you feel particularly uncomfortable, he will suck your blood, and then keep you awake at night." ”

Harding laughed and threw out a chip: "What a metaphor and ten dollars." Mr. President, have you signed a series of business cooperation agreements now? ”

"More than half of them have already been signed. Twenty dollars. ”

"Twenty dollars with you, twenty dollars with you." Harding looked at the card bed at the 2 of clubs, 2 of diamonds, J of diamonds, and K of diamonds: "I have a friend who would like to take on one of your projects, I wonder if Mr. President would like to meet him?" ”

It's coming, it's finally here.

The U.S. government where Harding was in office was a government that was extremely corrupt and embezzled public funds. Wang Hengyue smiled slightly: "No problem, you can ask your friends to go directly to my chief of business." But I also have a small matter that I would like to ask you to do a little favor when you officially assume your duties as president. ”…,

"What's the matter?" Harding stopped what he was doing.

I also have a friend who runs the Stewyn Pan American Oil Company...... "He is very interested in the Navy No. 3 field." Wang Hengyue issued the last card.

It's an 8 of spades.

Harding looked at the card bed: "I'm afraid this is a little difficult......"

"One hundred dollars." Wang Hengyue threw out the chips in his hand, and also threw out the chips for renting the No. 1 oil field of the Navy! "My friend is willing to pay a hundred thousand dollars for this."

"Follow." Harding no longer hesitated: "When I officially assume the presidency of the United States, I will personally order my Minister of the Interior to supervise this matter and give you 100 yuan, all bets!" ”

"Follow.

"A pair of kings, a pair of 2s, Mr. President, it seems that your luck is not very good."

Wang Hengyue smiled and closed the cards: "Mr. Wollen, I lost." It's a pleasure to play with you today, and I look forward to doing it again next time with you in China. ”

Seeing Wang Hengyue away, Harding shrugged his shoulders: "How much did we win?" ”

"About two thousand dollars. Mr. Wollen, you can take a look at the cards of the Chinese president. ”

Harding picked up Wang Hengyue's hole card, which was two squares, flushed!

Hell, the Chinese president didn't lose, he was the one who lost. Harding found it more and more interesting: "Charles, it's really interesting to work with him. ”

"Yes, it will bring us a lot of wealth."

Harding nodded, as if he remembered something: "By the way, I will nominate you to be the next Secretary of State, Mr. Charles Evans Hughes." ”

"It's a great honor, and I'm here to serve you and the U.S. government!"

"The people on the list, each will give five thousand dollars, and Harding will give twenty thousand dollars." Wang Hengyue took out a list and handed it to Chen Lifu.

Chen Lifu took the list and looked at it: "They really dare to accept it." ”

"There's nothing they don't dare to take." Wang Hengyue smiled and lit a cigarette: "As long as the Minister of the Interior, the Minister of Justice, and the Director of the Veterans Bureau have the slightest opportunity to make money, they will never let it go, and cooperating with this US government will be the most relaxed and happy for us......"

Anything that can be settled with money, Wang Hengyue is very willing to do.

Although Harding was not in office for a long time, only less than two and a half years were inexplicably quenched to death, but two and a half years were enough for Wang Hengyue to do many things.

It's the best to develop yourself at full speed in the United States! Once missed, there will be no such opportunity in the future......

Jiang Baili walked in with a thick stack of documents in his hand and gave a rough report on the negotiations in the past two days.

Wang Hengyue listened carefully and nodded slightly: "There will be a Warwickton meeting next year, so I'm going to arrange someone to attend it." ”

Jiang Baili was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that it was about one of the contents of the secret meeting between the president and the next US President Harding.

Wang Hengyue asked Jiang Baili to sit down: "After visiting the West Point Military Academy, how do you feel?" ”

"It is roughly the same as our Whampoa Military Academy, and some aspects are worth learning from." Jiang Baili is truthful and authentic.

Wang Hengyue nodded:

"The Whampoa Military Academy is the cradle of our officers, and the West Point Military Academy is the cradle of American officers. However, it is difficult to say what is going on between countries, and today's allies may become tomorrow's enemies, and there is nothing wrong with learning from each other's advanced experience. By the way, MacArthur saw it? ”

"See?"

"How does it feel?"

Jiang Baili thought for a while: "I still have the ability, but I am arrogant, how can I really talk about it, and it is suitable to be a military commander." ”

Wang Hengyue was stunned for a moment, and laughed "haha".

The famous Douglas MacArthur, in the eyes of his chief of staff, is only suitable to be a military commander. If MacArthur hears this, how can he be embarrassed?

"This is an analogy" Wang Hengyue gestured there: "If you meet on the battlefield, and you command hundreds of thousands of troops, how sure are you of victory?" ”

Jiang Baili smiled faintly; "I told MacArthur that the outcome of a battle involves logistics, supplies, and commanders' decisions on the spot, and it is not just about the strength of both sides. But if the strength is equal, ninety percent, I have about ninety percent certainty that I can defeat him. ”

Wang Hengyue took a few puffs of cigarette.

I never wanted my army to meet Americans on the battlefield one day, but it's hard to say what happens in the world, and no one knows what will happen in the future.

But the chief of staff's words reassured me.

In terms of Jiang Baili's character, he will never say big things. One is Jiang Baili, and the other is MacArthur, a future famous American general, and if the two really meet on the battlefield one day in the future, it must be a very interesting thing.

Perhaps, in the future, both of them will remember their first encounter at West Point! ）
