After leaving the American delegation, the Chinese delegation met with Stalin again. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

About the presence of Chinese partisans in Japan and Korea, Stalin knew about it for a long time. He has a lot of intelligence, and he is less biased than the Americans and knows the role of armed forces behind enemy lines.

He still has doubts.

The delegation explained for a long time, and Stalin wanted a phrase: "Where does your confidence come from?" ”

Mao Gong: "I didn't say the following to the Americans, nor to Britain and France, that is, we have the atomic bomb. If necessary, we will use atomic bombs to carry out strategic bombing of Japan. ”

Stalin's eyes tightened and he said, "Really? ”

Mao Gong: "Really. I tell you responsibly, it's true. Please keep it confidential for us. ”

Stalin said: "I know that the atomic bomb test is very moving, why don't we feel it?" Did you succeed in your experiment? ”

Mao Gong: "It worked." ”

Stalin said: "Well, if you have an atomic bomb, I agree to your request." The United States is working on atomic bomb technology? Did you get the technology from the United States? He still didn't believe it. He already had information about the experimental atomic bomb, and it was said that the explosion was amazing. The Chinese successfully experimented, why did their own people have no intelligence at all?

It was clear that they did not want the Soviet Union to participate in the attack on Japan, and they were unwilling to agree to give the Soviet Union rights and interests.

Since he didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart, he didn't ask to share the atomic bomb technology.

Mao Gong: "No. We don't know about American technology, we do it ourselves. ”

Stalin was noncommittal.

Mao Gong: "Last night, we received a telegram from China, and they have begun to prepare for the railway troops, just waiting for your final consent." ”

Stalin: "We welcome. ”

According to the limited intelligence that the Soviet spy ship in the United States returned, the Soviet Union knew that the United States had an atomic bomb, and now, the Chinese say that they have an atomic bomb, whether it is true or not, makes Stalin realize that Asia, he may be difficult to intervene. They have atomic bombs, they have their own needs, and it is impossible for them to meddle in Asia. If they don't have a real atomic bomb, I'm afraid they will also have some secret weapons that will hasten the process of victory. It seems that it is better to be pragmatic in Europe.

The most shocked person here was not Stalin, but Soong Ziwen.

Mr. Song didn't even know what the atomic bomb was, but he had heard of a super bomb. Unexpectedly, Yan'an actually claimed that he had such a bomb.

He did not believe that Yan'an had such advanced technology, and Stalin's attitude really shocked him, because he could see that Stalin believed Yan'an's words ninety percent.

On February 8, 1945, the agenda of the meeting was to continue to discuss the situation in Asia, the arrangement of the situation in Europe, and the arrangements of the United Nations.

Song Ziwen came to see Xiaolu early and asked him, "Do you really have that super bomb called the atomic bomb?" ”

Xiao Lu asked rhetorically: "Have you already told the general the news to the president?" ”

Song Ziwen: "Yes. ”

Xiaolu: "You don't believe it, do you?" ”

Song Ziwen: "To be honest, it's hard to believe. ”

Xiaolu said: "I know that as long as Chongqing knows the news, within a day, the intelligence will be on the table of the Japanese base camp." ”

Song Ziwen: "No." No, it won't. ”

Xiaolu said: "I am scaring the Japanese. Ha ha. As long as the Japanese are vigilant, our battle in Korea will be easy to fight. This sentence is the heartfelt words of the younger generation, and you must not report it again. If this sentence reaches the ears of the Japanese, we will die 50,000 more in Korea. ”

Song Ziwen: "。。。。。 He was confused: is there any? How can having a super-bomb be beneficial to the Korean battlefield?

Of course, he made up his mind, and he would also pass on the words of the small road to Chongqing this time. Let Chongqing judge.

As if to annotate Zhou Gong's analysis of the unfavorable situation in Europe, in the morning, Yalta was hit by an air raid.

At less than eight o'clock, more than two dozen planes flew over the Caspian Sea and tried to bomb Yalta, and Soviet planes scrambled into the air and intercepted a dozen planes, only two of which reached the sky over the city and dropped more than a dozen bombs.

The bombing did not cause serious results, no delegation premises and venues were bombed, and two bombs exploded near the British delegation, surprising the British who were eating breakfast.

At nine o'clock in the morning, three warships disguised as freighters in the Caspian Sea opened fire on the city of Yalta. This time the shelling was clearly prepared, several huge buildings along the coast were bombed, and one building was half blown off.

The fighters, which had just ended the air battle, quickly reloaded and refueled and took off again. By the time they began to bomb the German warships, the Soviet warships that had heard the news had already cut off their back roads and shelled the Germans.

The battle lasted less than half an hour, and all three warships were sunk.

The meeting was held at a temporary change of location.

It took only 10 minutes for the meeting to reach an agreement on Asia, agreeing to the arrangements for the war situation and the arrangements for the post-war forces proposed by China. The USSR did not insist on their demands. China also put forward a proposal to send the Ministry of Railways to help the Soviet Union.

Britain was apparently persuaded by the United States. The French were Zhou Gong and Xiaolu before the meeting, but Hu exchanged views with them, and they did not object.

The meeting then discussed the European arrangement. The European arrangement was finalized, and Northern Europe was assigned to the Soviet Union.

Finally, the United Nations issues will be discussed.

Previously, according to Roosevelt's vision, the United Nations would grant administrative powers to the "four policemen" (the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, and China) to ensure the security of the world. This idea was further clarified in 1944 at an international conference at Dumbarton Oaks near Washington, D.C., to discuss the establishment of the United Nations.

At the Yalta Conference, Stalin almost unanimously agreed to the proposal proposed by the United States. However, Stalin demanded that the two Soviet republics, Ukraine and Belarus, be made members of the United Nations. Roosevelt agreed to this request, except that the two additional seats that the Soviet Union had acquired at the United Nations were not disclosed at the time.

As the fourth German occupying power, France was added as a fifth permanent member of the Security Council.

Roosevelt was very pleased with the achievement of important goals, and he compromised with Stalin on a number of important issues, including German reparations and the question of Poland's new state borders and new government.

Stalin proposed that Germany should pay the allies $20 billion in compensation, half of which should be paid to the Soviet Union. These reparations, he said, amounted to about 20 percent of the actual war losses of the Soviet Union.

Churchill said the amount of compensation should be reduced. After World War I, Germany paid too much reparations, amounting to £1 billion, leading to the outbreak of World War II. In the end, however, the group agreed to Stalin's offer of compensation, demanding compensation in kind and forced labor for the Germans.

The Polish question was at the heart of Europe, and every plenary session dealt with the Polish question, and eventually, the Yalta Conference confirmed the consensus reached by the Allies in Tehran that the Soviet Union would retain the Polish territories acquired in 1939 and that Poland would receive part of the German territories occupied by the Allies in the west as compensation.

Eventually, the entire Polish territory moved more than 100 miles to the west. The exact boundaries are to be determined.

China demanded that Japan also pay war reparations, and the final agreed amount was $10 billion. As in Germany, compensation is made in kind and in labour. All the countries that were invaded by Japan, all the countries that fought against Japan have the right to compensation.

The next few days were filled with a relaxed atmosphere, with frequent extemporaneous speeches and occasional jokes from the various leaders. During this period, each leader of Mao Gong talked individually, and everyone was impressed by Mao's courage and vision. They all believed that Mao would lead China.

The Yalta Conference was the first time that Mao Gong participated in an international conference, and in this meeting, he made many friends, first of all, he formed an alliance with de Gaulle. Yan'an has helped many times, and France is very grateful. Moreover, even ordinary people in the French-occupied territories know that China's opposition parties are very supportive of their cause.

Secondly, he and Stalin became good friends. Stalin really couldn't help it. His losses were simply too great. If Yan'an had not contained the Japanese army, then the Soviet Union would have been finished. Now, if the domino of Yan'an falls, the Soviet Union will still be very uncomfortable. In addition, Yan'an occupied the land of the Far East occupied by Japan, and if Yan'an did not cooperate, then the Soviet Union's hands and feet in the Far East would not be able to spread.

Mao Gong also had a good relationship with the United States. For a simple reason, the United States asked Yan'an to send troops to Japan. The United States hopes to use Japan's power to weaken Yan'an's power, and at the same time, it also hopes to use Yan'an's power to weaken Japan's power. The losses of the United States in the Pacific are too great.

Only Churchill and Mao Gong are not strong. After the meeting, the United States and Britain secretly discussed to vigorously cultivate the Chongqing government and prevent the Chongqing government from falling.

The significance of the Yalta Conference for Yan'an lies in the fact that the legal status of Outer Mongolia and the Outer Northeast, Sakhalin, and the Kuril Islands was determined. The sphere of influence in Japan was also determined.

During the days of the meeting, Zhou Gong only slept for one or two hours a day and met privately with more than 100 people. He was recognized for his outstanding talents.

There have been no security issues at the meeting. Although there was another German plane, it was shot down by Soviet planes before it could be bombed.

The leaders of the Soviet Union, the United States, and Britain agreed that the Soviet Union would take part in the war against Japan on the side of the Allies within two or three months of the surrender of Germany and the end of the war in Europe, on the following terms:

(1) The status quo in Outer Mongolia (Mongolian People's Republic) must be maintained.

(b) The commercial port of Dalian shall be internationalised, the superior interests of the Soviet Union in the port shall be guaranteed, and the lease of Port Arthur as a naval base by the Soviet Union shall be restored.

(c) For the Eastern Railway and the South Manchurian Railway, which are the outlets to Dalian, a joint Soviet-Chinese company should be established to jointly operate them; It was understood that the superior rights and interests of the Soviet Union were to be guaranteed and that China was to retain full sovereignty over Manchuria.

3. The Kuril Islands were to be handed over to the USSR. It is understood that the agreement on Outer Mongolia and the above-mentioned port railways is subject to the consent of Chairman Lao Chiang. On the proposal of Generalissimo Stalin, the President of the United States was to take steps to obtain this consent, and the leaders of the three powers agreed that this demand of the Soviet Union would be fulfilled without any problems after the defeat of Japan.

The Soviet Union itself expressed its readiness to sign a Soviet-Chinese friendship and alliance agreement with the Chinese Nationalist Government in order to assist China by force in achieving its goal of liberating China from the Japanese yoke.
