788 New War II Global

In the same night, a room of people was already sitting in the living room of Luo Yiqun's official residence in Lushan, Jiangxi. 9vk: Everyone whispered about something. Among those present were the bigwigs of the Kuomintang, the heads of various important departments of the Nationalist Government, and some high-ranking officers of the army and navy of the National Defense Forces.

President Luo Yiqun and Chief of General Staff Luo Yaoguo have not yet arrived. The military and political leaders of the Kuomintang were talking to each other there, and the only sound in the conference room was the low sound of humming. The staff of the presidential chamber dressed in military uniforms brought fragrant tea and a little snack to all the people present.

Tonight's meeting is a rather unusual one. Because just this afternoon, the German Führer Adolf. Hitler officially informed the Chinese and Russian sides that the military operations of the German Army in Russia were officially over and that the main forces of the German army would withdraw from Russian territory by the end of September 1938. Everyone here knows that Hitler's move means that Germany is about to start a war on the Western Front! China will certainly follow Germany in the war against Britain and France, because this rising imperialist China has long coveted the rich Nanyang colonies occupied by Britain, France and the Netherlands. And the only way to seize and occupy that rich land forever is to defeat England and France, and possibly Japan, together with Germany! The purpose of today's meeting is to discuss whether China and Japan will be at war or at peace in the next few years.

In fact, the military power of Britain and France in Asia is not worth mentioning at all. If Japan were to side with China and Germany at this time, the whole of South Asia, South Asia, and even Australia would be able to easily get their hands on it. On the contrary, it is inevitable that China and Japan will have a dragon fight, and in particular, the United States is very likely to adopt a strategy of supporting Japan to contain China! But the question is, what is the cost of winning over Japan to join? And how much of a threat will a Japan, which grew strong in World War II, pose to China's long-term interests? For this reason, the party-state members present at the meeting had different opinions, and none of them agreed on it.

In this regard, Luo Yaoguo, the de facto helmsman of the Republic of China, also thought about it for a long time. At this time, he had already discovered that the Second World War in this time and space was completely different from history! China and Germany jointly destroyed the Soviet Union, each obtained a huge spoil, and both jumped to the top powers, from the east of the Maginot Line to the west of the Bering Strait, except for the Middle East, South Asia, and the Indochina Peninsula, the entire Eurasian continent was already under the rule of China and Germany! Although there is also a Russian Empire with a territory and population that is not small, it is already weak, and it still has to face the problem of "suppressing G" at home. Therefore, Empress Anastasia and her government would never dare to challenge China and Germany.

And China and Germany, which rule almost the entire Eurasian continent, can defeat Britain, France and Japan as long as they truly unite, and the only threat that needs to be considered is the United States! At present, the industrial strength of the United States can exceed that of China, Germany, Britain, France, Japan, Italy and other countries combined. Moreover, the population of the United States is not small, and the resources are also very rich. In addition, according to intelligence, the United States has now launched the massive "Manhattan Project", and it is expected that in 2 to 3 years, the United States will also become a nuclear power with an atomic bomb!

In addition, Luo Yaoguo also has to consider that the Sino-German alliance will not last forever! Because one of the most basic factors in maintaining a military alliance is to have a common enemy. Previously, the common enemy of China and Germany was the Soviet Union, now Britain and France, and in the future it may be the United States...... But what if a war breaks out between China and Germany and the United States? If China and Germany are united, it is still possible to defeat the United States, but will China and Germany become opponents after defeat? And, will Germany, having defeated the United States, become the leader of the white world? How strong would a white world under German leadership be?

Thinking of this, Luo Yaoguo couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine! Hitler was a complete racist, and in his mind, the yellow-skinned Chinese must be an inferior race...... It is estimated that there is no possibility for Hitler to approve of Germany and China sharing world hegemony! So it was decided that the whole white world could not be subjugated to the feet of Hitler and Germany.

In the same way, if the United States defeats Germany and becomes the leader of the white world, China will also have no good fruit to eat. The Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union in history will become a Cold War between China and the United States in ten likely! In the end, China will not end up much better than the Soviet Union. As for China's defeat of virtue, or the defeat of both virtues in the war, and finally China wins and dominates the world...... Hitler and Roosevelt were no fools. They will not give China the opportunity to stay out of the situation and reap the benefits.

Therefore, China's national policy can only pursue a situation in which China, Germany and the United States stand together, and only a world-wide "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is the most in line with China's national interests and the most realistic choice. As for using Japan as a gun against the United States, well, will Japan, with an annual output of 2 million tons of steel, fight against the United States, which produces 50 million tons of steel a year and is about to have an atomic bomb? Besides, at the moment, it is Nagata Tetsuyama who is leading the Japanese Army. Nothing like this should happen, right?

……

Luo Yiqun gently put down the folder in his hand and unconsciously tapped the table with his fingers. His nephew, Marshal Luo Yaoguo, chief of the General Staff of the National Defense Forces, was sitting opposite him with a cup of tea. The uncle and nephew had been discussing in the plainly decorated office for a whole afternoon. The discussion was also about the next stage of the war and the relationship between China and Japan.

To be honest, the current KMT top brass is not particularly anti-Japanese. After all, Japan has been a lot more honest after the 9/18 war, and it seems that it has also given up its ambitions for Chinese territory. At the same time, the Chinese have no ambitions for the territory of Japan. How attractive can these small islands, which are full of volcanoes, earthquakes every five times, and have poor resources and narrow land, be attractive to Chinese imperialism, which already has more than 20 million square kilometers of territory, including the Central Asian republics? It seems that the occupation of Japan did not have much oil and water, and not only did it not have oil and water, but it also had to worry about the belly of sixty or seventy million Japanese...... Therefore, President Luo Da did not approve of his nephew's proposal to go to war with Japan, but wanted to draw Japan into the anti-British and French alliance.

"If Japan joins us, the victory of this world war should be sealed, right?" Luo Yiqun paused, and then continued: "If we start a war against Japan, if we can't annihilate the Japanese navy at the first time, Japan will become our mortal enemy." Even if Britain and France lose, Japan may defect to the United States and become a pawn of the United States to contain China, unless we occupy Japan, but the Japanese resistance ......"

"Please rest assured, uncle, we will occupy Japan!" Luo Yaoguo's answer was very affirmative, and his face seemed to be full of confidence.

"What? You really want to occupy Japan! Luo Yiqun had a surprised expression on his face, and he raised his eyes to look at his nephew.

"Yes, Japan is a very important country and the gateway to the east of Chinese mainland." Luo Yaoguo said calmly: "So it is necessary to occupy Japan, and it will definitely be occupied." ”

Luo Yiqun was very worried about his nephew's growing ambitions, and he sighed softly and shook his head slightly. "Fuwen, you don't know the Japanese, they can't obey our leadership, and when the time comes, everyone will take up arms against the landing Wehrmacht! Unless we kill all the Japanese, the people of that land will always resist! ”

It is not surprising that President Luo Da thought this way, and the Americans in history thought so at the end of World War II, but then things turned out unexpectedly. Luo Yaoguo, who was familiar with this period of history, only smiled faintly when he heard his uncle's words, and said, "Uncle, you can rest assured." As long as we defeat the Japanese, they will certainly obey us convincingly, and perhaps Japan will be China's most reliable helper at that time. ”

General Luo Yiqun shook his head suspiciously, sighed, and said, "Japan will become our helper?" Text, you're too whimsical, aren't you? ”

"Whether it's whimsical or not, we'll know when the time comes." Luo Yaoguo smiled and put down the teacup in his hand. "Uncle, there can only be one leader in the entire Eastern world, and that is China! So convincing Japan is the only option. When the time comes, Japan will either obey or be destroyed, and there will never be a third way out. ”

"Destroy Japan...... Luo Yiqun seemed to think of something, his eyebrows tightened, and he muttered: "Why can't China and Japan unite to deal with the Western powers?" Aren't we all Asians of the same culture? ”

Luo Yaoguo smiled deeply, "It is precisely because we are all in Asia and we are also a leading country, so there is no way to coexist peacefully. If we let Japan follow us in this world war and grow stronger, then we will definitely raise tigers in the future. And what conditions are we going to use to win over Japan? Give Australia to Japan? So good territory, why can't we take it ourselves? That is the foundation of hegemony for the next thousand years. With that, he stood up and gave a military salute to his uncle. President, it's almost time, it's time to announce our latest national policy to the monarchs outside! ”

"The latest national focus?"

"That's right! Our ultimate goal in this world war should be to pursue the division of the world among China, Germany and the United States! And in Asia and Oceania, China should become the sole hegemon. As for Japan, it must be dealt a heavy blow at the very beginning! ”

Just as the two of them were about to leave the office, Lieutenant General Fan Hanjie, director of the Presidential Palace's chamberlain, suddenly walked in briskly, still holding a stack of electronic newspapers in his hand.

"President, Auxiliary." Fan Hanjie gave a military salute to the two, and then handed the telegram to Luo Yaoguo. "This was personally sent to the assistant commander by Director Wu of the Military Intelligence Bureau."

Luo Yaoguo took the telegram and glanced at it hastily, then handed it to his uncle. "It's news from Japan. The situation seems to have changed somewhat, and Nagata Tieshan is ready to send Puyi back and reconcile with us. ”

……

At this time, in the living room of the Luo Mansion, the important members of the party-state who had been waiting for a while had automatically formed a circle, where they were arguing about the new round of European war that was about to break out. And the core of this circle is Chiang Kai-shek and An Sihua, the two of them have come together, not because they have colluded together. It's that both of them are about to leave China to fight in the West!

Chiang Kai-shek, who had just been appointed commander of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, was to go to Volgograd, where the headquarters of the Expeditionary Force was located, to command the Chinese Expeditionary Force, consisting of six infantry corps, to attack the Bolshevik army in Transcaucasia. An Sihua's latest position is the commander of the First Armored Group Army of the Chinese National Defense Forces.

The First Panzer Army will consist of two Panzer Corps - the First Panzer Army and the Second Panzer Corps. The two Panzer Corps were attached to two Panzer Divisions and one Panzergrenadier Division. Among them, the 1st Armored Army is attached to the 1st Armored Division, the 8th Armored Division and the 1st Panzergrenadier Division, and the commander of the 1st Armored Army is General Xu Yunlong; The 2nd Panzer Army was attached to the 2nd Panzer Division, the 7th Panzer Division and the 2nd Panzergrenadier Division, and the commander was General Hu Lian, the former commander of the 8th Panzer Division.

According to the plan, the two Panzergrenadier Divisions would each transfer one infantry division from the 18th and 17th Armies, which had distinguished themselves in the war against the Soviet Union, and transform them into Panzergrenadier Divisions. The other three Panzer Divisions and two Panzer Corps will be transported to Germany by rail after the Trans-Siberian Railway is reopened. It was expected to be fully in place by the end of 1938.

And the purpose of the First Panzer Army, which had half of China's armored divisions, to go to Germany was naturally to support fascist Germany in its attack on France! In addition, the Chinese Navy had already taken out four expensive battleships and was ready to go with the German Navy against the British...... Such an arrangement seemed to the young generals of the pro-German Wehrmacht to be nothing. But in the eyes of some party-state elders, this is indeed a bit unworthy, why should the Chinese shed blood and sacrifice for the Germans' war?

"According to intelligence, Britain and France have fully seen the power of armored forces in the war against the Soviet Union, so they are currently expanding their armored forces with all their might! According to investigations, France has now expanded their armored divisions to 10, while Britain has formed 4 armored divisions. Germany now has only 14 panzer divisions, which is basically the same number as Britain and France. Answart, who is half German, is of course pro-German, and he sipped his coffee while explaining to the surrounding government dignitaries the reasons for the increase in European troops. He said:

"The more difficult the situation for Germany in Europe, the more likely it is that the United States will support Britain and France, and eventually there will even be a situation during the First World War - the United States will directly enter the war! Such a situation is very dangerous for both China and Germany. So it is necessary for us to send 4 armored divisions to Europe, which, in fact, also do not work in the rainforests of Southeast Asia. It's just used to defend the coastal zone, which is basically doing nothing. And Germany got these armored divisions, and the Sino-German coalition army could have 18 armored divisions on the European battlefield, 4 more than the British and French coalition forces, and the chances of winning were naturally much greater. ”

"Are the British and French tanks powerful?" The question was asked by Wang Jingwei, this great traitor in history in this time and space, even a traitor has no chance to do it. I had to be a foreign minister obediently, and I have always been running to Britain and France in the past few years, and I still have a lot of feelings about the prosperity and strength of Britain and France, and when I heard that Britain and France had 14 armored divisions, a white and elegant face also showed a little worried.

"The best tank of the British at the moment is the Matilda 2, this tank has just been equipped with troops, we don't know the specific data, we only know that it has good defense and is equipped with a 40mm anti-tank gun. Such firepower is estimated not to threaten our No. 3 tank, and it may pose a certain threat to No. 2. The French tanks were mainly 20-ton S35s, which were similar to the No. 2 tank, but with better protection and weaker firepower than the No. 2, and were a 47mm anti-tank gun. In addition, the French recently acquired a battle tank called the G1R, which weighs 35 tons and has a 75mm anti-tank gun. The firepower is similar to that of the Three, but the defense is estimated to be stronger. However, compared to the 45.5-ton tank jointly developed by us and Germany, there is still a certain gap between the No. 4 tank and the No. 4 tank equipped with an 88mm gun. ”

Speaking of this, An Sihua sighed with some regret and said: "It's a pity that the No. 4 tank is expensive and the production process is relatively complicated, so the current output is very low, and each armored division can only be equipped with one battalion." ”

"A 45.5-ton tank!" It was the first time that Chiang Kai-shek on the side had heard of such a good thing, and this master had faded out of the military for two years, and he really didn't know much about the latest weapons and equipment. He frowned and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that our China could have such advanced weapons!" It seems that this war is won. ”

An Sihua took over the topic and said with a wry smile: "Our tanks and planes are currently better than those of Britain, France, the United States and Japan, but none of these advanced weapons are designed and developed by our Chinese engineers themselves!" Basically relied on German technology. For example, the BF-109 and F currently used by the Chinese Air Force are designed by the company. In fact, the foundation of our world empire is still very shallow, and if Germany fails, we will not be able to last long. That's why Chief of General Staff Luo insisted on helping Germany defeat Britain and France...... At the same time, we should avoid the United States from entering the war, and strive to form a balance between China, Germany, and the United States after the war. ”

"President Luo Da has arrived!" At this time, a loud roll call sounded. There was a commotion in the living room, and everyone stood up. I saw Luo Yiqun and Luo Yaoguo both wearing straight military uniforms and walking in together. Luo Yaoguo was smiling and saying something with Luo Yiqun. President Luo Da frequently nodded in agreement. Seeing everyone standing up to greet them, the president smiled and nodded to everyone. Luo Yaoguo, on the other hand, strode towards Foreign Minister Wang Jingwei, pulled him aside, and talked to him in a low voice.
