Chapter 613: A Few Families Are Happy and a Few Are Sad

The fate of the Iranian state was also more bumpy, sandwiched between the huge Russia and the British-occupied India, the two powers were constantly infiltrating Iran, encroaching on the country's land and plundering its wealth.

The current Shah of Iran is Pahlavi Jr., whose father was expelled by Britain and the Soviet Union more than a year ago, on the grounds that Pahlavi Sr. carried out pro-German diplomacy, the Soviet Union occupied northern Iran, and the British took southern Iran.

In fact, the old Pahlavi is also pro-German, he came to power by a coup d'Γ©tat, and the driving force behind the scenes is the British, and he engages in pro-German diplomacy, but he just wants to get rid of Britain.

The British banished him to South Africa, and the throne fell to his son. Qiao Yu offered to choose Tehran for this meeting, which was undoubtedly a sign of respect for Stalin, which is relatively close to Russia. In fact, China is not far from Iran, China has previously sent troops to India, the entire South Asian subcontinent has a strong Chinese power, which can be extended to Afghanistan, Qiao Yu is out of the northwest, and Tehran is not very far.

Roosevelt and Churchill were not very satisfied with this proposal, but the two of them also decided to give Stalin and Qiao Yu a face, who said that these two countries have contributed the most now!

The Big Four set the meeting place, all of which were carried out in extreme secrecy, and in order to ensure security, Tehran's guards were more than tenfold, the largest number of which were Soviets, and Britain and China also sent professional security personnel, and the whole of Tehran was protected layer by layer.

Qiao Yu made some arrangements for domestic affairs, and then secretly left Beijing, took the train to the west, and went straight to Dihua, Xinjiang, where Qiao Yu transferred to a special plane to Tehran.

Relative to airplanes. Qiao Yu prefers special trains. Being down-to-earth creates a strong sense of security. At the same time, you will not be overly tired and will be able to maintain your best mental state. The meeting of several giants is not only a contest of intelligence, but also a contest of physical strength and body.

Meeting time slots. The topics discussed were very complex and important, and in addition to the formal negotiations, there were a large number of receptions, nominally to enhance the affection between the heads of State. Ease the atmosphere, but in fact these drinks are not at all easy than the formal talks, the meeting time is set at five days, that is to say, these five days must be maintained at all times, this is war!

This time, Jiang Baili and the others did not accompany Qiao Yu to come, firstly, because the war was surprising and needed someone to take charge, and secondly, these people were inevitably old. For example, Premier Wang Yongjiang has completely retreated to the second line, senior adviser Yang Du and others have also retired one after another, such as Xu Shuzheng, Zhang Zuolin and others have also reached the time of retirement.

Predictable. After the end of World War II, there will be a large-scale replacement of the old and the new in China's political arena. Those who rose to prominence during the Xinhai period have also come to wither, and China needs a new generation of politicians to take over the overall situation.

Shen Hongmin, who accompanied Qiao Yu to Tehran this time, is an out-and-out young official, in his early thirties, who has already achieved the position of deputy minister of the interior and is the secretary general of the Supreme Command.

If you want to be in a high position at a young age, you must show proud results in order to be convincing. Shen Hongmin is the best at straightening out complicated relationships, and seemingly messy things can often go straight to the core and quickly find out the key when things that seem to be a mess in his hands. In addition, he has excellent organizational skills and is able to coordinate all parties. A country as large as China is thrown into a world war, and the things that need to be dealt with are complicated. The work of the Supreme Command is very amazing, and Shen Hongmin, as the chief manager, is the busiest person, but he can handle all kinds of work well and analyze it in detail.

Qiao Yu attaches great importance to this kind of talent, and this time he was brought out, firstly, to let him be a staff officer for himself, and secondly, to cultivate Shen Hongmin and see if he was worthy. The helpless flowers have fallen, a generation of old people is about to end, and Qiao Yu has to find a post-war team for himself.

"President, your main job at this meeting is to discuss strategies against fascism with the other three heads of state; jointly discuss the establishment of an international organization for the long-term maintenance of international peace and security; and other issues such as opening up a second battlefield in Europe. In addition, China and the United States should specifically demarcate the division of labor in the Asia-Pacific theater, China and Britain should discuss the Indian issue, and the issue of joint naval operations between China and Britain should be discussed; as for China and the Soviet Union, the main thing is the final division of territory in the Far East and aid to the Soviet Union. ”

Qiao Yu nodded: "It's another carve-up game, in fact, every major international conference is like this, there are only two kinds of countries in the world, big and small, people and chess pieces." This is something that has never changed, and the key is to compete for the person who plays chess, not to be a chess piece! ”

"What the president said is very true, the world is still looking forward to this meeting, and I hope to defeat fascism as soon as possible and restore peace to the world!"

"Since ancient times, Chinese have looked forward to peace in the world, but looking at history, there are few rules and many troubled times, and it is too difficult to think that the world is peaceful. How do you think China can get out of this circle of rise and fall? ”

Shen Hongmin is also an extremely smart person, Qiao Yu sighed at this time that there is a reason for the so-called rise and fall of chaos, just a few days ago, the Chinese military found several cases of fraud in government military procurement.

Among them, some people made military uniforms out of inferior cotton, some stole and sold military rations, which were shoddy, and there were also a number of tank engines with serious quality problems, which simply did not meet the design requirements.

In addition, there is another thing that makes Qiao Yu even more angry, that is, a government leak case, involving a major general, Qiao Yu is not polite, as long as the problem is found, all of them will be dealt with seriously and resolutely dealt with.

However, this method does not satisfy Qiao Yu, in all fairness, over the years, Qiao Yu has grasped the most tightly for the officials, and all kinds of supervision methods have been used, and after they are caught, they are all dealt with seriously, without any leniency, but this kind of thing just can't be eradicated, and this time it was actually the outbreak of the army, which made Qiao Yu even more dissatisfied.

Now is the critical moment of the world war, aren't these criminals afraid to become sinners of the nation?

"President, you often say that governing the country is governing officials, as long as the officials are managed well, the country will be peaceful, and the society will be peaceful. The demise of all dynasties began with the collapse of the rule of officials, and if I want to avoid the strange circle of rise and fall, I must strengthen the governance of officials! ”

"That's right, but it's too difficult, especially the intricate interest groups, in fact, there are many of them that I have supported, and now they all have their own ideas, have their own ambitions, and want to get more!"

"Big President, interest groups are unavoidable, and corruption may not be completely eradicated. A few decades ago, corruption was everywhere in the United States, but now it is much better, and I think this is a problem that can only be solved by the method of development, and when the people become rich and social supervision is perfected, corruption can be controlled to a reasonable range! ”

"Well, it makes sense, but it takes a process, and it takes a lot of courage to compete with vested interest groups! Do you have that determination? ”

Shen Hongmin's body was shocked, he knew that this was the most critical moment, he barely stabilized his mind, and said solemnly: "I am confident, and I am convinced that our country will get better and better!" ”

Qiao Yu nodded with satisfaction, Qiao Yu was still very satisfied with Shen Hongmin, along the way, Qiao Yu and Shen Hongmin talked a lot about the idea of national politics, many things have gone far beyond the scope of this international conference, and it has almost become Qiao Yu's political indoctrination of Shen Hongmin.

After arriving in Dihua, Qiao Yu's special plane went straight to Tehran, and Stalin, as the host, had already arrived.

"Mr. President, I want to tell you the good news, the heroic Soviet Red Army has entered the counteroffensive stage, Paulus's Sixth Army has been surrounded in Stalingrad, and the only thing that awaits them is complete destruction, millions of Nazi troops and servant troops have been wiped out, and the Eastern European battlefield has ushered in a critical turning point!"

Stalin gave the order for a counteroffensive before coming, and the Soviet army soon surrounded the German army at Stalingrad, and after more than a year of hard fighting, the Soviet Union finally survived, and the most difficult period was about to pass, and Stalin was naturally in a very high mood.

"On behalf of the Chinese Government, Mr. Generalissimo, I congratulate the Soviet allies on their achievements. At the same time, I would also like to say that the Japanese fascists have also come to an end, and we will soon sweep away Japan's power in the South Seas and attack the Japanese mainland, and the long-awaited peace of the people of the world will come! ”

Shortly after Qiao Yu arrived in Tehran, Roosevelt and Churchill arrived at the same time, and the Big Four finally came together, which was undoubtedly a very important moment, and the heads of state of the world's most powerful countries gathered together to discuss how to deal with the fascist states, and at the same time to plan the future of mankind, and anyone involved felt a kind of heartfelt excitement.

However, just as the talks were about to officially begin, the alarm suddenly sounded on the European side, the Nazis' newest aircraft carriers Deutschland and the Nazi have been completed and launched, and at the same time, the Tirpitz has also been repaired, and the Nazi aircraft carrier battle group has once again appeared in the North Sea, and the pressure on Britain's shoulders is unprecedentedly heavy.

Lao Qiu no longer had a smile on his face, he knew that the German aircraft carrier would definitely be launched, but he didn't expect it to be so fast, Britain is not weak in aviation now, it has five large aircraft carriers, two of which are the latest large aircraft carriers to be launched, and the number of aircraft on board has reached eighty, with a closed bow and a thicker deck, which can withstand the wind and waves of the North Sea. In addition, the British had a large number of light aircraft carriers.

However, although the military forces have a great advantage, the British also know that they are lagging behind the times in the design of aircraft carriers, so they asked China to transfer two aircraft carriers to Europe. (To be continued.) )
