MacArthur faded out of public view, and was thus drowned out by history, before he had time to show his talents and ambitions. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although Patton and Marshall had a good relationship with MacArthur and were ready to follow MacArthur to do a great career, after all, they had not been with MacArthur for a long time, and they did not have a strong sense of belonging.

Cleveland merely mourned some MacArthur, and praised MacArthur's help to the democrats, but only to appease MacArthur's 200,000 American troops, and with the completion of the reorganization of these American troops, MacArthur was no longer mentioned.

In Chang'an, Xijing, Cleveland met Li Weiguo, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, as he wished, and the meeting between the two brought the Sino-American war into a new era.

By this time, it was already in the autumn of 1895, and within three months, the Chinese Imperial Army had occupied most of the United States, driving Roosevelt to the barren mountainous and desert regions of the western United States. Important industrial cities and agricultural areas in the United States, with the exception of the Norfolk area controlled by the Democratic forces of Cleveland, had been militarily occupied by the Chinese Empire.

But the problem also arises, the front of the Chinese Imperial Army is too long, and despite the abundant resources and population advantage, it is not the same thing in reality.

The Chinese Empire had a large army, but it also had a much larger land area, more than 20 million square kilometers of land, and it had to be fortified everywhere; in addition to the war with Britain, the United States, and Russia, the border was heavily garrisoned, and the military strength was also tight, and the defense expenditure was huge, and the finances were also tight.

The Chinese Empire has a large population, close to 500 million people, but not everyone is willing to immigrate to the Americas.

Historically, all Chinese immigrants overseas were not because they were willing to go, but because they were forced by life and politics to go. Today's Chinese Empire, with its developed economy and clear politics, is a holy place on earth that people from all over the world yearn for.

It's like a super-America in another time and space, how many Americans are willing to immigrate to live in other countries?

In the same way, few Chinese people today are willing to immigrate to other countries.

In this way, the United States, which is more than 8 million square kilometers, is also the size of Australia, and the Chinese Empire needs at least 10 million immigrants to rule the United States, which has a population of 80 million. Only by immigrating 200 million can the Americas be completely turned into a paradise for Chinese Americans in the Chinese Empire.

This is not a simple matter, especially when the Chinese are unwilling to emigrate, just like the super-America of another time and space, the US president asks 10 million Americans to emigrate overseas, and the result is inevitably the president is deposed, and even causes a major riot.

Of course, the quality of the citizens of the Chinese Empire is stronger than that of the Americans, and they will not go to depose the emperor Li Weiguo, and the riots may not occur, but as a humane country, as long as 10 million people petition the emperor together, Li Weiguo will inevitably cancel the large-scale immigration policy.

In order to dominate the United States and completely conquer the United States, Li Weiguo had to change his war strategy, not to capture the United States for the time being, but to take the high-end line, to govern the United States with the United States, and to act as the boss behind the scenes.

Governing the United States with the United States means governing the United States with the Americans themselves.

A boss never does his own work, and he doesn't need to learn professional knowledge, as long as he can use people.

Li Weiguo calculated for himself that if the United States was occupied by the Chinese Empire, it would first encounter fierce resistance from the American nation, just like Australia back then, and the confrontation with the Chinese Empire would end for many years. Australia's population is small, but the United States is different, with a huge population of nearly 100 million, and a sense of culture, technology and national identity far surpasses that of Australians, and it is not so easy to conquer the United States as it is to conquer Australia.

The trap of great powers, the Vietnam War and the Afghanistan War in later generations, dragged the two superpowers of the United States and the Soviet Union into the water, one drowned, and the other withdrew its troops in time and survived, but it was also broken.

Today's United States is much stronger than Afghanistan and Vietnam, and Li Weiguo will not allow the Chinese empire to also fall into the quagmire of war, so a quick victory is the first prerequisite.

It is a pity that Roosevelt still has more than one million US troops hiding in the mountains and deserts of the western United States, and the tanks of the Chinese Imperial Army are not yet able to adapt to the mountains and desert operations, and the US troops are hiding in the woods, and the planes are useless.

In addition, transportation in the western part of the United States is much less developed than in the eastern part of the United States.

On the eastern battlefield, the Chinese Imperial Army, relying on aircraft, tanks, and heavy artillery, coupled with the developed road and railway transportation network in the eastern United States, carried out lightning tactics with very good results, and occupied the developed areas in the central and eastern United States in just half a year, but the transportation network in the western region was much worse, and it was destined to be unable to eliminate Roosevelt's military group in a short period of time.

Therefore, after considering all kinds of factors, Li Weiguo decided to adopt the tactic of using the United States to contain the United States, so that the Chinese Imperial Army would hide behind the scenes, and the Cleveland government would rush to the front and fight the Roosevelt administration.

In this way, the Chinese Empire would benefit from the fortunes of the American nation, and lay the foundation for the complete conquest of the United States.

From the beginning, Li Weiguo supported Cleveland's democratic-a-exile government, and today it can finally come in handy.

The American lands occupied by the Chinese Imperial Army will form the Government of the United States of America, with Cleveland as President, and a new American Defense Force.

Allowing the United Army of Cleveland to attack Roosevelt's Confederate Army is tantamount to dividing the American people again, and a divided America is in line with the core national interests of the Chinese Empire.

Of course, this time Li Weiguo is going to be ruthless, and he will not allow the emergence of a Grant dictatorship that dares to betray the Chinese Empire.

Let the democratic US military and the Republican US military fight, the more tragic the better, and the more Americans die, the more serious the national fortunes of the United States will be consumed.

After Li Weiguo conveyed his attitude to Cleveland, Cleveland, after thinking about it, decided to accept it, but the specific conditions would be met by senior officials of the Cleveland government and the prime minister and officials of the six ministries of the Chinese Empire.

In order to dispel Cleveland's doubts and appease the American people, the Imperial Chinese Cabinet, at the behest of Li Weiguo, did not make too harsh demands.

On November 6, 3995, and on December 8, 1895, the Chinese Empire and the Provisional Government of the United States of America concluded an armistice agreement in Wuhan, Great Kyoto, which came into effect on January 1, 1896.

According to the agreement, the United States of America withdrew from the Entente Group and joined the Chinese Empire in opposing the Entente Group.

Upon the entry into force of the Agreement, the Provisional Government of the United States of America would declare war on the Entente Group on behalf of the sole legitimate Government of the United States of America and establish an alliance with the Allied members.

Two years after the armistice between China and the United States, the Chinese Imperial Army will withdraw from the United States in batches.

During the war, all expenses of the Imperial Chinese Army in the United States, including garrisons, military supplies, combat attrition, casualty compensation, military expenditures, etc., were provided by the Imperial Chinese War Department and paid by the Treasury Department of the United States of America.

The Chinese Empire enjoyed the highest priority in the development of resources in the United States, etc.

These conditions are not too harsh, and the Cleveland administration can fully accept them, and they can explain them to the American people.

After all, the American people know very well that it is understandable that the Chinese Empire is now strong, the United States is weak, and the weak eat the strong.

However, there is one thing that everyone ignores, that is, China and the United States have only signed an armistice agreement, not a real peace treaty.

In this regard, the annex stipulates that China and the United States will sign a peace treaty when appropriate.

Obviously, the content of the peace treaty cannot be beneficial to the United States, at least one thing is a huge price that the United States must pay, that is, the US military attacked Pearl Harbor, and the Chinese Empire must recover the reparations, and this reparations is definitely an astronomical amount.

Cleveland knew exactly what he was going to face in the future, but fortunately, the current hurdle was over, and the democrats were back in power, even if only with the help of the Chinese Empire, which in the eyes of some Americans was a traitorous and puppet regime, but Cleveland believed that one day he would get the Americans back on their feet.

Only a few Americans are calling Cleveland a traitor, and most Americans support Cleveland, who are well aware of the current situation.

At the same time, this also has a close relationship with the Morgan consortium and a group of democratic big conglomerates, these consortia have been slaughtered and looted by Grant and Republicans, and they hate the current Roosevelt regime to the core, so they have no hesitation to support the new Cleveland government and hold important government positions, they already have a strong influence and influence many Americans to support the new government.

On February 1, 1896, after a month of preparation, Cleveland moved into the White House in Washington, D.C., becoming the twenty-second president of the United States of America, completely restoring the flag, national emblem, national anthem and other iconic things before the First American Civil War (1861).

Today, the United States has experienced two large-scale civil wars, the 1861 Civil War and the 1881 Civil War, each of which has regressed the economy and society of the United States, and now the Cleveland government has been established and the United States of America has been restored, but the Roosevelt administration still exists, so it is equivalent to the beginning of the third American Civil War.

On the frontal battlefield, the Chinese Imperial Army has basically stopped its large-scale offensive against Roosevelt's government forces, because most of the planes and tanks of the Chinese Empire have been transferred to the Asian, European, and African theaters.

This is also one of the reasons why Li Weiguo revised his combat strategy against the United States, since the Chinese Empire won the Battle of New York and tanks appeared on the stage of history, the European Entente began to develop tanks and anti-tank weapons to restrain tanks, and the Allied bloc purchased tanks from the Chinese Empire.

Tanks and anti-tank weapons instantly broke the stalemate on the European battlefield, and the Entente and the Central Powers fought each other, and the battle was even more tragic, but the Allies as a whole occupied the top.

In particular, with the end of the Battle of Washington, the Chinese Empire once again won a brilliant victory, and fighter planes appeared on the stage of history, allowing European countries to see a new pattern of war.

Similarly, the Entente installed weapons systems on their aircraft, while the Allied Bloc also designed its own fighters while purchasing F16 fighter jets from the Chinese Empire.

Airplanes and tanks were originally the killer weapons that Li Weiguo intended to use in the world war, but he never expected that they would be put into use so early, and they would pull the course of global history and let the world enter the era of tanks and airplanes in advance.

The European battlefield changed a lot, and tanks broke through the traditional restrictions of trench warfare, especially the German Empire, with a large number of T23 modified tanks purchased from the Chinese Empire, quickly broke through the Verdun Line.

Although the Anglo-French forces were equipped with anti-tank guns to restrain the T23 tanks in time and destroyed many German tanks, they were eventually attacked by the Germans in Paris.

The Battle of Paris was fought very brutally, with the British and French forces investing a total of more than 1.5 million troops and the German army investing 1.3 million men, and the battle between the two sides was as fierce as the bloody Battle of Stalingrad in history.

In the urban area of Paris, buildings and other masonry buildings have become the best test site for anti-tank weapons, the British and French forces quickly equipped with a variety of large-caliber anti-tank rifles, gradually increased from 25 mm to 47 mm, in fact, already have the prototype of anti-tank guns, the German army equipped with T23 modified tank armor finally could not block the attack of armor-piercing shells. In particular, the British and French troops hid in the building, which made the German army defenseless, resulting in a large number of tanks being destroyed and delaying the German offensive.

The two sides fought almost street by street, and on the fiercest China Street, the two sides fought repeatedly more than 100 times, which lasted two and a half months, with more than 100,000 casualties, and was finally occupied by the Germans.

This is because the German General Staff urgently purchased 200 F16 fighters from the Chinese Empire for the Battle of Paris, and although the British and French forces also temporarily installed heavy machine guns on their respective aircraft, because they could not deal with the coordination problems between the propellers and machine guns, it was difficult to destroy the German aircraft in the battle, and at the same time, the bullets often broke the propeller blades, which also led to heavy losses on the fighters of the British and French forces.

Although the German losses were not small, but in the end they still seized air supremacy, began to cooperate with the German tanks to attack Paris, the British and French troops were strafed by the machine guns of the German fighters, and suffered heavy casualties every day, and were almost one-sided slaughtered during the day, and the position was lost in a blink of an eye, and it was only at night that the German army attacked the German army to regain the position, but on the whole, the German army captured three streets during the day, and the British and French troops could only take back two streets at most.

A month later, Paris fell, and the Anglo-French army left behind more than 400,000 corpses and withdrew from Paris in disarray.

The French Emperor Napoleon IV was forced to move the capital to Bordeaux, and the whole of France was cast a shadow, and for a time the whole world was singing about the Entente, speculating that the Allied bloc would achieve the final victory.

However, this is not the result that Li Weiguo wants to see, he hopes that the military strength of European countries will be equal, and then consume each other for a long time, so that the entire Western world will continue to be weakened, rather than the current situation of the German Empire.

"It's time to contain the German Empire!"

Seeing the war report in Europe, Li Weiguo smiled slightly, all kinds of bad water poured into his heart, and plans to trap Germany came to mind one after another. (To be continued.) )
