[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 847: It is destined to be a rip-off negotiation (ask for subscription!) , ask for a monthly pass, ask for everything! )
Foreign Minister Matsuoka's idea is good, and he wants to drag it out. The pen "Fun" www.biquge.info try to seek benefits for the Japanese government, but the Americans seem to be in a hurry.
On May 23, Fumima Konoe received a telegram from Osa, Iwabe who was in the United States. Iwabe Daisa telegraphed Konoe Fumima that it was necessary for the Japanese government to negotiate quickly, otherwise the United States would eventually enter the war.
First of all, the mood of the people in the United States to participate in the war is very high, and the demonstrations on the streets of Washington and New York have been wave after wave, all demanding that the government enter the war. This is mainly due to the fact that a large number of Chinese people in the United States have publicized Japan's atrocities in China, and since the Huaxia Company landed in the United States, it has attracted a large number of US allies, including several major families that dominate US politics, such as the Rockefeller, Morgan, and DuPont families, and with the assistance of these families, some special voices can also be transmitted to the White House through special channels, and even US President Roosevelt has specially met with Li Lanqing and had very profound exchanges.
Moreover, in the eyes of Iwabe Daisa, Roosevelt was a very dangerous person, and with Roosevelt's current status, he could do anything. In order to ensure the consistency of US foreign policy, Americans, especially isolationists, do not approve of a change of leadership, so 55% of voters chose Roosevelt in this year's presidential election. Thus, Roosevelt finally broke the American "Father of the Nation" George. In a tradition established by President Washington, he was elected President of the United States for the third time.
Coupled with his excellent performance in saving the American financial crisis, President Roosevelt's reputation in the United States is now particularly high, and he is infinitely close to Washington and Lincoln, the greatest presidents in American history. If he really wants to participate in the war in Europe, I am afraid that no one can stop him. Because the vast majority of Americans will support him, and the United States is a democratic country, as long as the American people support Roosevelt, even Congress cannot change the will of the people.
In addition, both Iwabe Osa and Ambassador Nomura agreed that Foreign Minister Matsuoka seems to be trying his best to release the balloon at the moment. In fact, this will not be beneficial to Japan, but will cause the feelings of the United States to deteriorate. As far as they knew, neither Roosevelt nor Hull trusted Foreign Minister Matsuoka.
Although both the United States and Japan are trying their best to keep the peace talks secret, as far as the all-pervasive spies of the Nationalist Government are concerned, as long as they are willing to pay a sufficient price, there is probably no information in the world that they cannot spy. Besides, the negotiation between the two countries is not a trivial matter, and there are too many clues that can be detected, so the Nationalist Government and Ma Zheng quickly received the news.
Once the US-Japan peace talks are successful, it will mean that the United States has completely abandoned China, which is tantamount to adding insult to injury for China, which has just lost the Soviet Union. So the old man was anxious for the government officials to hold a meeting to seek countermeasures.
Ma Zheng is not in a hurry, he does not hold out any hope at all for this negotiation between the United States and Japan, because there are great differences between the two countries in terms of goals and positions, and the peace talks will not be successful at all.
You must know that Japan is now an ally of Germany, while the United States is a friend of Britain in the traditional sense, and more than half of the Americans have immigrated to the American continent from Britain.
Just as the German ambassador said, one of the very important reasons why the United States wants to negotiate peace with Japan is that the United States wants to concentrate its forces on participating in the war in Europe, and the Americans will absolutely not watch Britain being wiped out by the Germans, which is not in their interests.
However, because Japan was an ally of Germany, according to the treaty, if the United States entered the European war, then Japan had to declare war on the United States, so that Hawaii, the backyard of the United States, and the Philippines, a colony in Southeast Asia, were directly within the attack range of the Japanese navy. Therefore, if the United States wants to go to war with the Germans with all its might, it must ensure the safety of its own backyard, so it must negotiate peace with Japan.
The problem was that if the United States went to war with Germany, Japan would have to fight together with Germany in view of the agreement between Germany and Japan. Even if Japan is unwilling, it will have to declare war with the United States at that time, and there will be no need for this peace talks, even if they reach some substantive opinions.
Moreover, if Japan resolutely refrains from going to war with the United States, then the Germans and Italians will lose confidence in Japan's entire allies, which will also be a blow to Japan. Therefore, the US-Japan peace talks are just deaf ears, just decorations, and they are just a gimmick from the beginning.
Sure enough, after May 23, the United States and Japan held more than a dozen talks over the next two months, but in the end they could not reach any substantive opinions, and the peace talks did not yield any results.
When the United States and Japan were arguing, Ma Zheng was tossing on his own turf.
After two and a half months of intensive training, the first stage of the basic training of the special combat team was finally completed, and the originally confident special combat team members finally realized the power of the training camp, and the number of people participating in the training camp has also been decreasing over time, from 1,423 people at the beginning to 1,256 people now, and nearly 200 people have been eliminated in the physical training alone.
After the basic training, the second stage of skills training begins. At the beginning of the training, Ma Zheng led 224 snipers into the depths of the Daqingshan jungle.
This Daqingshan is not the other Daqingshan, this time I went to Daqingshan is the most famous mountain range in the north of Saibei, and it is also the most famous Daqingshan in the country.
There are countless Daqingshan with names and surnames and history in the country, including Saibei Daqingshansheng, Daqingshan of Zongyang County in Anhui Province, Daqingshan in Liaoning, Daqingshan in Laixi City, Shandong, Daqingshan in Linyi Fei County, Daqingshan in Heilongjiang, Daqingshan in Dangtu, Anhui, Zhujiajian Daqingshan in Zhoushan City, Zhejiang Province, etc., but the most famous in the country is Daqingshan in Guisui.
Guisui Daqing River west to Baotou Kundulun River, east to Guisui Dahei River upper valley. It is more than 240 kilometers long from east to west, 20~60 kilometers wide from north to south, 1800~2000 meters above sea level, and the main peak Daqing Mountain is 2338 meters above sea level.
In terms of training troops, the mountains in the south, especially those on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, are much more suitable than those in the north, and the training of special forces requires not only dangerous terrain, but also water sources that can be found everywhere and a variety of animals and plants. However, in the depths of winter, Daqingshan only has withered yellow thatch and withered leaves drifting in the wind, and the frozen river is reluctant to train with the troops.
However, the mountains in the north also have their advantages, after all, the troops trained in this region are more suitable for the climate and geographical terrain of the north, and are more suitable for fighting in northern China, while the mountains in the south can certainly be trained in all directions, but the troops trained in this way are not necessarily suitable for fighting in northern China.
In addition, although the altitude of Guisui Daqing Mountain is not high, but the climatic conditions are complex, the difference between the peak and the foothills is about 4C, the frost-free period is shorter, about 100 days on the mountain and behind the mountain, about 1 month shorter than the growing season before the mountain, and the barrier effect of the mountain range is very obvious.
Secondly, the forest coverage rate here is 11.5%, which is relatively low in the country. The shady slope is about 1100 meters above sea level, which is dry grassland; shrubs and sparse juniper forests appear above 1200 meters; 1300~1500 meters there are mixed forests of Pinus tabuliformis, Arborvitae orientalis and Juniperus juniper; At 1500~2000 meters, there are mixed forests of Pinus tabuliformis, Populus manifolia, Quercus liaotungensis, mixed forests of spruce, birch and poplar, and pure forests of Pinus tabuliformis and spruce. Below 1500 meters on the sunny slope is dry grassland, and above 1800 meters is mountain meadow grassland.
Such a complex and diverse vegetation climate is still more in line with Ma Zheng's requirements, and it is the best place for him to train snipers, so he walked into the depths of Daqing Mountain with the team.
The content of the sniper combat skills training has already been trained, the first is to train the snipers in adaptive anti-jamming ability, the second is to carry out field survival training for snipers, the third is to carry out cooperative training for snipers, and finally to conduct sniper target identification training for snipers, and in the next period of time, Ma Zheng will train these team members one by one.
