Chapter 1791: Change and Planning

Hoan Kiem Lake in the center of Xinjing is full of green trees and beautiful scenery. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Chiang Kai-shek and An Yi strolled under the green willows of the lakeside causeway, talking and laughing, when climbing down the hill or up and down the bridge, An Yi stepped forward from time to time, supported a few times, and seemed to get along very well.

However, only the person concerned knows that in the seemingly harmonious atmosphere, there are many hidden knots.

Chiang Kai-shek stood still on the embankment of the lake opposite the Yushan Temple, looked at the quiet island in the lake, turned his head and asked, "An Yi, I want to take MacArthur and his army to Nanjing and help me train the army, what do you think?" ”

An Yixin said this, and asked pretending to be surprised:

"Headmaster, isn't the Central Army training based on the textbooks I compiled at the Central Military Academy? Why do you suddenly remember to let the Americans train the army now? They don't deserve it—"

Chiang Kai-shek's smile suddenly disappeared, and his face suddenly became gloomy.

An Yi said solemnly: "Principal, it's not that I look down on the Americans, their country's geographical location is extremely superior, and they have only paid attention to the navy for a long time, and neglected the construction of the army, and the combat effectiveness of the army is extremely pitiful. During his last visit to South China, Mr. Hull, the US Secretary of State, asked me for many instructors to come to the United States to help them organize and train their troops. If the principal expects the US military to improve the quality of the troops, I am afraid he will be disappointed! ”

Chiang Kai-shek frowned, and then suddenly, thinking how did I forget this stubble?

You must know that the Japanese army in the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, the British and American troops cried wolf and wept wolves, and retreated one after another, and only the Anjia army had a certain advantage in the face of the Japanese army and won many victories. In this case, it is no wonder that An Yi will disagree with the strength of the US military.

However, Chiang Kai-shek was originally a drunkard who did not mean to drink, and this time he went south, he played the sign of visiting students and the career he started, but in fact he just wanted to bring Americans to China, and he could live in strange goods.

Thinking of this, Chiang Kai-shek squeezed out a smile again and said:

"An Yi, the General Staff Headquarters has formulated a battle plan, preparing to launch a large-scale counterattack against *** in April and May, to show our allies our determination to resist to the end. When the time comes, the main forces of the Central Army will all be in the fight, and I think General MacArthur is very vengeful and will certainly be more than happy to join us in the counterattack. As you know, the situation in China is very complicated, and if the central government can get the help of the US team, it will undoubtedly be a deterrent to local forces, and with concerted efforts, the war can be better carried out! ”

An Yi did not expect much from MacArthur and his army. It seems that with such a US team in hand, it can get a lot of benefits, but now the Navy controls the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean shipping, while Myanmar and the East Indies are in the hands of the Army.

Due to the blockage of the Panama Canal, the US naval power in the Pacific region was fundamentally weakened, and the British navy was basically withdrawn from the Indian Ocean. Under such circumstances, even if the United States is willing to help, it may not dare to organize a large-scale fleet to transport strategic materials from the Atlantic Ocean to the Indian Ocean.

Thus, at least until the situation in the Pacific was fundamentally reversed, or until the Settle Army took the East Indies, Burma, and Malaya, MacArthur and his forces were a loss-making bargain.

Chiang Kai-shek's explanation gave An Yi an excuse to let go, he groaned for a while, and said: "This principal can consult General MacArthur himself, and if they are willing to go north, I will not stop them." Since the rainy season in Indochina and India will soon approach, our South China army will mainly consolidate its existing territory in a short period of time and will not launch a counteroffensive against the Japanese army. ”

"Huh!?"

Chiang Kai-shek looked at An Yi in great surprise, he never expected that An Yi would so easily abandon MacArthur and tens of thousands of American troops who had worked so hard to rescue. After hesitating for a while, Chiang Kai-shek asked, "An Yi, is there anything you need my help with?" ”

"Yes!"

An Yi's answer made Chiang Kai-shek's heart tighten.

An Yi replied very directly: "Now that Central Asia, India and West Asia all need to be populated, we urgently need the support of the central government to mobilize mass migration again in the Huanghuai, Liangguang, Lianghu and Jiangnan regions, preferably with the whole family...... Headmaster, the large number of farms we have built are in great need of agricultural workers, and when they arrive at their destination, each family will receive at least 20 yuan a month in wages, and I think such conditions will attract many families. ”

"No problem, I can provide as many people as you want! But that's all you have to ask? ”

Chiang Kai-shek had a smile on his face.

At present, the domestic industry and commerce are developing rapidly, and all walks of life need people, but the rural population is still overcrowded.

Since the emergence of antibiotics such as penicillin and streptomycin, the mortality rate of the population has been greatly reduced, and a population wave has begun to appear in China. Due to the victory in the Battle of Songhu, China's most elite provinces such as Fujian, Zhejiang, Suzhou, Anhui, and Jiangxi have been preserved, and Lianghu and Henan-Shaanxi have a large number of people who have migrated from Northeast China, North China, and Shandong, and the land problem is still very acute. It would be better for the central government to be able to remove these unstable factors, which would greatly alleviate class contradictions.

An Yi smiled and said, "Nothing else!" Anyway, now that the various cooperation projects in China are on the right track, as long as they develop step by step, students dare not think about it. ”

Chiang Kai-shek saw that An Yi did not make trouble, and he was in a good mood: "An Yi, I should really thank you!" Over the past year, Hubei Daye Iron Mine, Anhui Ma'anshan Iron Mine, Hunan Chenzhou Persimmon Bamboo Garden, Hunan Xihuashan, Dajishan, Yumei Mountain, Pangu Mountain tungsten mines, Jiangxi Dexing and southern Anhui Ma'anshan copper mines, Fujian Longyan manganese mines...... The production capacity of these deposits and supporting metal smelters has increased rapidly.

"Also, Henan Nanyang and Hubei Jianghan oilfields, began to produce oil, Henan Dongchuang, Shaanxi Jinlong and other gold mines, gold production is extremely gratifying, in addition to other factories and enterprises that cooperate with Nanhua, profitable. With the rapid development of these basic industrial facilities and light and heavy industries, the central government's finances have been greatly improved. ”

"Thanks to the Principal's leadership!"

An Yi complimented: "If it weren't for the principal's decision, most companies would probably only exist on paper, and it would be impossible to have today's results." It is all the credit of the principal! ”

Chiang Kai-shek was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut, and after a while, the two moved again and walked side by side.

Chiang Kai-shek suddenly remembered something and asked: "An Yi, now your army has reached the Persian Gulf, and India accounts for half of it." These places are all British territory, I don't know how you will deal with the relationship with the British in the future? ”

An Yi stretched out his hand, broke off a willow branch that was rubbing his head, leaned to his nose and sniffed it, and then replied in an orderly manner:

"At present, the Axis and the Allies are fighting together, and it is not yet known who will kill the deer. However, due to the entry of the United States into the war, the Allies had a much greater chance of victory, but even if the Allies won the final victory, it would still be difficult for Britain and France to return to Asia. Britain has endured successive crushing defeats, and has suffered months of German bombing of its homeland, and now it has taken a blind eye to its colonies in Asia, believing that when the war is won, Britain will be able to influence the situation in Asia, but I may not give them this opportunity. ”

Chiang Kai-shek's face became serious: "Are you sure to face the counterattack of the British?" Although Britain was defeated in the naval battles of Malacca, Maldives and the Seychelles, the accumulation of British numbers for hundreds of years is not child's play? Once he decides to use force against Nanhua, how will you deal with it? You must know that Britain and the United States are one, and the rise of our Chinese may not be what Americans are willing to see. Even Germany is no match for Britain and the United States, let alone ......"

Speaking of this, Chiang Kai-shek shook his head again and again.

An Yi didn't answer directly, but asked, "Headmaster, I don't know what you think of the war in the Pacific?" ”

Chiang Kai-shek said confidently: "Although the Panama Canal was destroyed by *** people, the United States *** can bypass South America and reach New Zealand and Australia from the South Pacific." The Americans absolutely did not allow that nearly 8 million square kilometers of the continent to fall into the hands of the Japanese army, and they must have gone all out.

"The British have now lost all their colonies in Asia, and they will certainly not give up Australia and New Zealand, and will also invest heavy troops there, so to speak, Australia and the surrounding seas will become the main battlefield of confrontation with Britain and the United States for a long time. Although people are very strong, they do not have the strength to confront the top two powers in the world, even if they have the upper hand for a while, but in the long run, failure is inevitable! ”

An Yi smiled slightly: "What if the *** army wins a decisive victory in Australia?" The Far East, Lanyin, Malaya, Burma and East India they occupy have a certain industrial base, especially the East India, which has a large number of steel mills and military factories, hydropower and thermal power plants, which can produce a steady stream of weapons! Coupled with the large population resources of the occupied areas, millions or even tens of millions of indigenous armies can be organized in a short period of time.

"Fighting in the tropics, these natives can exert all their strength, but the recruits recruited by Britain and the United States may have problems of one kind or another because of the lack of adaptation. I dare to say that unless we Chinese help, it will be very difficult for Britain and the United States to counterattack Australia! ”

Chiang Kai-shek pondered for a long time before asking, "What do you mean...... Britain and the United States may invite us to send troops? ”

An Yi nodded: "Judging from the development of the situation, it is very likely that it will ...... The Japanese army was bound to win against Australia and New Zealand, and if they won the battles against New Guinea, New Britain and the Solomon Islands, they would inevitably commit heavy forces to launch an all-out attack on Australia. After the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, the United States Navy is now not the opponent of the Navy at all, and the Japanese army can land everywhere in Australia, so to speak, the current strategic situation is extremely beneficial to the United States!

"*** plus its overseas diaspora has a population of nearly 100 million, if you count the population of the colonies under control, there are about three to four hundred million, if you put more than five million troops in Australia in one go, this is definitely not something that the British and Americans can resist, and we will definitely be invited to send troops at that time! Maybe this is our chance......"

Chiang Kai-shek was dumbfounded: "This ...... An Yi, you mean, we have a chance to get into Australia? ”

"Nothing is impossible!"

An Yi smiled confidently: "Britain is very powerful, but if it loses its colonies in Asia, and then loses Australia and New Zealand, how much territory can the former empire of the sun never set have left to squander?" For the sake of its own interests, the United States will inevitably encourage us to send troops, preferring that we become entangled with Britain..... This will be a place where we can take advantage of it in the future. ”

Chiang Kai-shek's mind was in a mess, and it took a long time to figure it out, still shaking his head: "Don't forget that there is also the Soviet Union!" Now your army controls the place where there are many Soviet territories. The strength of the USSR was preserved as a result of the non-aggression pact with Germany, and now they are marching towards the Urals, and in the event of the defeat of the Far Eastern Republics, then the USSR will border Central Asia and Siberia. After the end of the war, with Britain pressing forward step by step, the Soviet Union will definitely take the opportunity to attack and recover the lost territory! ”

At this time, the two came to a pavilion near the lake, An Yi invited them to sit down, and Chiang Kai-shek was a little dizzy from the sun, so he happily agreed.

Sitting on the bench, An Yi looked at the lake in the distance and said, "Principal, your worry exists, but I am sure that the Soviet Union will not dare to do it!" ”

Speaking of this, An Yi turned his head, met Chiang Kai-shek's puzzled gaze, and said: "There will be a war between Germany and the Soviet Union, and with Turkey joining the Axis powers, this trend will become more and more obvious!" According to the speculation of our staff and intelligence departments, Germany may invade the Soviet Union this year or next year!

"Originally, I expected it to be next year, but Turkey's defection has greatly advanced this time. With the superior forces of the Axis powers, within one to two months they could sweep through the Middle East and North Africa, driving the British army into Central and East Africa. Hitler was a very interesting person, although he also knew that fighting on two fronts would be very troublesome, but he always believed that the existence of the Soviet Union was an important reason to encourage Britain to fight, once Germany conquered Soviet Russia, then the European continent was truly and completely unified, and the British had no hope, and they would inevitably give up resistance and seek the road of peace talks!

"The Non-Aggression Pact between Germany and the Soviets was no pressure for Hitler to overturn it, and he had torn up similar treaties many times before...... Now that the Soviet Union is attacking the Ural region occupied by the Far Eastern Republics with all its might, if everything goes well, it will be fine, but once the war situation reaches a stalemate, then Hitler will definitely not give up this rare opportunity! I can guarantee that if the Soviet Union entered the war, the pots and jars at home would definitely be in tatters, and there would be no way to threaten us! ”

Chiang Kai-shek gasped and asked in a trembling voice, "What do you mean...... Germany would invade the USSR? This...... Hitler wouldn't have been so unwise, would he? ”

"Although the German navy is trying its best to develop, it is still a long way behind the British!"

An Yi sighed: "Compared with risking a steamer to send troops across the English Channel, the danger of attacking the Soviet Union by land is relatively small!" During his visit to Europe, he had many exchanges with Führer Hitler, and debated with Hitler many times on the issue of attacking England first or taking the Soviet Union first. Judging by the current situation, Hitler tended to give priority to the Soviet Union, and then go back to Britain!

"Germany's expansion is full of dangers, and neither I nor my brother Jinan can guarantee whether Hitler will continue to stretch his hand to the East after conquering the Soviet Union. Germany's resources determine that it is impossible for him to be like the United States, pay equal attention to the navy and army, and can only give priority to development, and the army is undoubtedly a trump card in Hitler's hands, he cannot take the initiative to weaken, this huge war monster will be a sharp sword hanging over our heads! Therefore, the younger brother of Ji Nan has no reason to argue, and now it is up to Hitler's decision! ”

"Hitler was such a madman......"

Chiang Kai-shek wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, shook his head and said, "At least I don't have that much courage!" However, if Germany really conquered the Soviet Union and won the battle against Australia, then the international situation may really be tilted towards the Axis powers! ”

An Yi nodded: "Yes, but only in this way can our importance be more and more demonstrated......"

At this time, Liu Qing, director of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff, came quickly, walked into the pavilion, first saluted Chiang Kai-shek, and then handed the document to An Yi.

After reading it, An Yi said to Chiang Kai-shek: "The Turkish army suddenly moved south to Syria, its vanguard has already joined the Japanese army in Aleppo, the British army and the Yugoslav, Greek and Arab coalition forces have begun to retreat to Damascus in southwest Syria, and the situation in the Middle East has completely rotted ......."
