"Your Excellency the President, look at this is Maher sent back from China." Maher sent Chen's proposal back to the United States.

"Well, suggesting that we go to war ourselves, this is definitely not going to work."

When Roosevelt saw Maher's telegram, he immediately put it on the table and resolutely opposed it.

"Your Excellency, please read the telegram, I think what this Deputy Commander Chen of China said is very reasonable. If you think about it carefully, if they really occupy Southeast Asia by then and don't leave, it will be difficult for us to start a war with Huaxia. Instead of that, it would be better to do it directly with the Japanese monkey now, which would be much easier. McHather said.

"But we are separated by a Pacific Ocean in Southeast Asia, and it is by no means easy to fight, and logistics support is a problem." Roosevelt said.

"Your Excellency, since Huaxia is unwilling to send troops, and there is a potential risk for them to send troops, we can propose that they guarantee our logistics, in this case, we should have nothing to fear." McHathur said.

"You have a point, let me think about it." Roosevelt said.

"Your Excellency, you can't think about it anymore. Now the British can't hold it for a few days, and if it drags on, the whole of Southeast Asia will be a monkey. At that time, it will be much more difficult for us to send troops to log in. McHather said.

"Well, then you can inform Maher and ask him to negotiate with Huaxia immediately. You go and think about what we need from Huaxia, and list them all for Maher and let him talk about it. Roosevelt said.

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." McHarser turned to leave.

"Commander, that Maher is here again, and said that this time they are formally negotiating on behalf of the United States and Britain." Soon Maher sent someone to inform Chen Jinghui.

"Oh? I didn't expect it to be so fast. You go and tell Maher that at two o'clock in the afternoon, we will meet in the conference room. Chen Jinghui said with a smile.

"General Maher, I don't know what is so anxious, and he also proposed a formal meeting with Huaxia."

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Jinghui came to the conference room that had been arranged, and when he saw Maher, he knew from his expression that his proposal must have had some effect.

"Deputy Commander-in-Chief, I'm glad we can meet again, I'm here to negotiate with you on behalf of the United States and the United Kingdom." Maher said.

"Oh? Negotiate with me on behalf of the United States and Great Britain, as if there is nothing to talk about between us. Chen Jinghui asked pretending to be puzzled.

"Hehe, deputy commander, don't worry, we are not here to talk to you about requesting Huaxia to send troops, we are talking about Huaxia's assistance." Maher said.

"Oh? We helped, and asked General Maher to be clearer, I don't quite understand. Chen Jinghui said.

"Deputy Commander-in-Chief, I think the suggestion you gave me yesterday is very reasonable, so I sent back to the United States what we discussed. After deliberation between General Macharsher and His Excellency the President of the United States, and finally through Congress, they have agreed to your proposal yesterday, and we are ready to help the British hold on to Southeast Asia. Maher said.

"This is a good thing, it seems that you are not stupid, and you can think clearly about the truth inside." Chen Jinghui straddles Maher.

"But now we are directly involved in the war in Southeast Asia, and we are facing one of the most difficult problems, that is, we are separated from Southeast Asia by a Pacific Ocean, and logistics will be our biggest weakness. Therefore, after our national consultation, we decided to ask you Huaxia to help ensure the logistics of our combat troops in Southeast Asia. Maher said.

"General Maher, the war is your business, what does it have to do with us. Of course, since we are all anti-fascists, we in Huaxia will naturally give you some help. But the help we can provide is too small to be a drop in the bucket for the troops you are about to fight. Chen Jinghui said.

"Deputy Commander, don't worry, listen to what I have to say. We didn't let you Huaxia provide logistical support in vain, and we will pay the corresponding price. Maher said.

"Oh! Then I'd like to hear what price you're willing to pay for us to provide you with logistics. Chen Jinghui said.

"We need you to provide us with weapons and equipment, and some medical supplies that we need, of course, we buy them from you at international prices, and you only need to be responsible for shipping these things to North India." Maher said.

"Oh! I don't know how many weapons and equipment you'll need. Chen Jinghui asked.

"According to our initial estimates, we will first need to purchase weapons and equipment for 300,000 troops, mainly light weapons." Maher said.

"There's no problem with this, you don't have a specific list of weapons in your hand." Chen Jinghui asked.

"Yes, there's a list of all the weapons we need." Maher took out a piece of paper from his bag and handed it to Chen Jinghui.

"General Maher, you've got a lot of stuff. However, I need to make one thing clear to you, and now we use the renminbi in all parts of China. Therefore, the price of the weapon, I will also calculate it according to the yuan, which is false to you. Chen Jinghui said.

"We know this, and we ask the deputy commander to give an offer." Maher said.

"Well, you wait a minute. Vigorously, let people calculate. Chen Jinghui instructed Li Dali to handle it.

"Commander, it's been calculated, here's the list." Ten minutes later, Li Dali came over with the quotation and said.

"General Maher, according to your request, here is the quote. At present, we have 25 pieces of rifle, 50,000 pieces of artillery, 5,000 pieces of rocket launchers, 40 tanks and 45 pieces, and each weapon is equipped with a base amount of ammunition. Now we have 1 bullet for 2 rounds, artillery shells and tank shells for 2000 pieces each, and bazooka shells for 1500 rounds each. You need to pay me a total of 192.5 million RMB as much as you need. Chen Jinghui handed the offer to Maher.

"It's so expensive, can it be less." Maher bargained.

"General Maher, this is already the lowest price. If you don't believe me, you can go to any country in the world and buy it, and see if you can buy such a good weapon with all your money. Chen Jinghui said.

"It's really not too expensive according to the price, but we are friends, can we be cheaper." Maher said.

"General Maher, I'm all the real price, and you still have to bargain with me. But if you can grant me one request, I can give you less. Chen Jinghui said.

"If the deputy commander has any requirements, he can put them forward." Maher said.

"I remember that yesterday General Maher said that you Americans are willing to sell aircraft carriers and their design drawings to me, I don't know if this counts." Chen Jinghui asked.

"Deputy commander, this is the condition we asked you to send troops before, and now we have sent troops ourselves, and I can't answer your request now." Maher said.

"I know you can't answer now, but you can go back and tell your president that I am going to use the money you used to buy weapons to buy your aircraft carriers, and please give me an answer as soon as possible." Chen Jinghui said.

"Deputy commander, I'll naturally tell you about this. But if there is no problem with our arms purchase plan, can we sign a purchase agreement now? Maher said. He must now sign his own military purchase order, lest Roosevelt disagree to sell aircraft carriers to Chen Jinghui, causing him to raise prices, which will be troublesome.

"Hehe, this arms purchase agreement is naturally signed. But you haven't answered my request yet, so it's not too late for us to sign it when you have the results. Chen Jinghui took back the contract that had been placed on the table and handed it to Li Dali.

"This"

Maher saw Chen Jinghui take the contract back, and knew that he had really guessed it, and Chen Jinghui really wanted to play tricks. But he has no choice now, business is like this, you are willing to pay, others may not be willing to sell.

"General Maher, I hope you will give me an answer as soon as possible."

After Chen Jinghui finished speaking, he got up and left. He knows that the US economy is now in a downturn, and it urgently needs an external force to stimulate economic recovery, which is why the United States still does business with them and sells them military supplies, knowing the nature of Japan. He's going to take advantage of that now and get what he wants. Although the construction of the aircraft carrier developed by itself can already be started, it will take at least one and a half years for an aircraft carrier to be completed to sea trials and then to formally assemble the troops. Now its own navy is the weakest, and one or two aircraft carrier fleets are urgently needed for training. So he had to seize this opportunity and get what he needed.

"Deputy Commander-in-Chief, can we sign this arms purchase agreement now? I promise, I will do my best to convince the president to sell you the aircraft carrier. Maher saw Chen Jinghui leave and knew that Chen Jinghui was iron-hearted. But he still wanted to give it a try and didn't miss any chance.

"General Maher, you don't have to say any more. If you have time to rub shoulders with me here, you might as well go back and inform your President now, and discuss my proposal. Chen Jinghui stood at the door and turned around and said.

"Alright then, I'll go back and send your request back. However, I cannot guarantee that Congress will pass it, and I ask you not to stop the arms sales that we have only seen because of this matter. Maher said.

"I'll think about it, but now I have something to deal with, so I'll go first. General Maher, I hope you can convince your president that this is good for you. After Chen Jinghui finished speaking, he turned around and left.
