Qiao Yu is in Beijing, but his mind is not here, in Europe, Germany and the Soviet Union carved up Poland, and then Germany pointed the spearhead of aggression at the Balkans, of course, this is just an appetizer, Hitler's next target is Northern Europe and Western Europe.

With the assistance of China, the Nazi tanks were much sharper than in history, and the biggest improvement was the navy, and this time in the attack on Poland, the Nazi navy was also involved, and the carrier-based aircraft took off more than 400 sorties from the aircraft carrier Munich, and launched a fierce bombardment of the fortifications in Poland.

The superiority of carrier-based aircraft was further highlighted, so that the Germans were very happy, they already regarded aircraft carriers as the ultimate weapon to defeat British maritime supremacy, and Hitler ordered the navy to prioritize the production of aircraft carriers, creating a powerful Nazi navy to escort German expansion.

While the war in Europe has attracted everyone's attention, the problems in Asia are also worrying, and Siam, the only sovereign country in the South Seas, is suffering from civil strife on an unprecedented scale, and one has to worry that peace in the Asia-Pacific region will also be lost.

Jiang Baili came to Qiao Yu's presidential residence, and as soon as he saw him, he said: "President, we have ascertained the situation of the uprising in Siam, and the Japanese are indeed involved in it, it is the support they provide to the democrats, and it is also the strike and uprising that they instigate!" ”

"Hirohito is really restless, he is watching Germany go smoothly in Europe, and he is also in a hurry to expand, Brother Baili, do you think we should declare war with Japan now, completely remove Japan from the list of great powers, and even let the four islands sink by land!"

"The president said with a smile, now that the war situation in Europe is uncertain, and Japan is an ally of Germany, it is not wise for us to rush into war with Japan, and you have always advocated that you should enter the war late and make war money!"

"That's what I really think, but it's just that Japan is jumping up and down now, it's too much of an eyesore!"

"In fact, why do you have to deal with Japan yourself, this time Japan dares to stir up trouble in Siam. We can do the same in the Philippines. To provoke the contradiction between Japan and the United States, it is better to drag the Americans into the water first, and let's sit on the side and watch the tiger fight! ”

As soon as Jiang Baili's suggestion was put forward, Qiao Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, this is indeed a good way, the Philippines is still a colony of the United States, but the location of this land is very important. If China wants to dominate East Asia, it must drive American power out of Asia, and the most important thing is to get the Americans out of the Philippines.

However, China is unwilling to directly confront the United States, this is the most troublesome thing, Qiao Yu knows very well that at this time, confronting the United States, the world's industrial hegemon, is definitely a matter of death, but it does not mean that China cannot stumble on the United States.

The Philippines is a good place to start. The Americans do not have a lot of experience in managing colonies, there are many resistance forces in the whole Philippines, American soldiers are constantly dying in a riot, and there are even voices in the United States to give up here, but the Philippines is a springboard for the United States to intervene in Asia, and its strategic value is very important, and it cannot be easily abandoned.

"Brother Baili, are you sure that the Americans will put the spearhead of suspicion on Japan?"

"That's no problem at all. In fact, Japan has been infiltrating the Philippines in recent years. They have secretly propped up a few armed forces, hoping to seize the whole of the Philippines at the right time. Nor did Japan want its mainland and South Seas colonies to be separated from Taiwan and the Ryukyus. They need the Philippines as a springboard to form a maritime encirclement of China! ”

Although China's naval strength is not weak, especially the air force, which has an important position in the world, the main scope of activities is still concentrated in the adjacent sea areas, which is inseparable from China's topography.

However, there are still Japanese and British forces in the South Seas, and many small islands in the Pacific Ocean in the eastern Ryukyus are still under Japanese control, which is not a good thing for the Chinese navy to go out of the Pacific, and if Japan can control the Philippines, the blockade of China will be tighter.

Of course, this so-called encirclement is still a thing played by the Japanese themselves, and the Chinese side looks down on it at all, mainly because Japan has insufficient troops, and there is no way to hold such a broad front, on the contrary, it will disperse its forces because of fortifications everywhere.

Of course, when it is not officially launched, there will indeed be a little pressure, Qiao Yu thought about it for a while and said: "Brother Baili, you should immediately arrange it now, create an incident in the Philippines, provoke the contradiction between Japan and the United States, and let these two countries pinch each other." In addition, the Kra Canal project must be accelerated, we need a canal that can pass ships of more than 30,000 tons, and the Chinese Navy must break the blockade and enter the Indian Ocean first! ”

The value of the Indian Ocean lies in the Middle East, and if China's maritime power can reach the Indian Ocean, it will have a say in the Middle East's oil treasure house, and controlling this oil treasure house is China's best chance to become a world hegemon, and the value for China is simply immeasurable.

Qiao Yu had to lay out as soon as possible, Jiang Baili still understood Qiao Yu's mind very well, and immediately arranged it, and China's state machine was running at high speed.

Manila, Philippines!

An American military vehicle arrogantly passed through the not wide street, and the people on the road hurriedly dodged, and a few people were almost hit, but the people in the car did not reduce their speed, but on the contrary, they also accelerated their speed, as if venting their dissatisfaction in their hearts.

The owner of this car is the famous American general MacArthur, this guy is famous in later generations, and he is also a household name in the United States, but throughout his life, only the Inchon landing can be regarded as a military genius, but he was soon defeated by another more magical army, so that Lao Mai was not guaranteed.

However, MacArthur has a great ability, that is, acting, and he is also very good at talking, and he was driven from the Philippines to Australia by Japan, and he can brazenly declare that I will definitely fight back; When the army was finally defeated in North Korea, after returning to China, he could still say that the veteran will never die, but it is just gradually withering, which pushed his acting skills to an extreme.

A first-class actor, a second-rate politician, and a third-rate military strategist are the best evaluations of him!

At this time, MacArthur had not yet reached the height of later generations, and he was now irritable, the main reason was that the United States asked him to retire from active service and form the Philippine Army, which made MacArthur very uncomfortable, he always thought that his stage American Army, a small Philippines was nothing, and it was not worth worrying about such a great figure as him, and the US government was simply confused.

After venting his emotions in drag racing, MacArthur went straight to his official residence, and when he was less than a hundred meters away from his home, a black shadow suddenly turned at the intersection and threw a black object at MacArthur.

MacArthur was also a very responsive character, he immediately felt that the situation was not good, and he came out to drag racing by himself, and he didn't bring enough guards at all, isn't it fatal, he hurriedly stepped on the accelerator and accelerated to escape.

At this moment, the black thing exploded behind his car, and the air wave shattered all the glass behind the car, and the broken glass pierced MacArthur's back, and a heart-piercing pain made MacArthur tremble, but fortunately there was no fatal injury.

But the anger in MacArthur's heart has already reached the top beam, this man is going to be unlucky, drinking cold water and stuffing his teeth, he dares to assassinate himself, he simply doesn't want to live!

At this time, the sound of the explosion had already alarmed the nearby military police, and soon a large number of guards came to protect MacArthur, and a large number of people went to hunt down the murderer.

The doctor gave MacArthur a brief treatment, cleaned the wound, removed the glass and shrapnel, and just as MacArthur was grinning in pain, a large number of reporters had already heard the news.

MacArthur immediately came to his senses, and this was another good opportunity to show his acting skills, MacArthur asked the doctor to treat the wound as soon as possible, and he strode to meet with all the reporters, his face was full of pride, and he did not look like he had just been assassinated.

As soon as he saw these reporters, he immediately waved his hand vigorously, "Reporter friends, I was just bitten by a mosquito, you know that mosquitoes in Manila are very powerful, thank you for your concern for me!" ”

MacArthur's words made all the reporters laugh, this is the general in the eyes of Americans, strong and unyielding, heroic and fearless.

"I would like to say only two things about this incident, first, American generals will not be intimidated by despicable means; Second, the murderer must be judged justly! ”

MacArthur's sonorous words drew a burst of cheers, and MacArthur's performance was perfect, but as soon as he saw off the reporters, he ordered martial law throughout the city, and the murderer must be dug up, while doubling his own guards, no one would joke with their lives.

Soon news came that they had found the murderer's body, but there was no identification around them, and the identity of this person could not be determined, but judging from the shape of his feet, this person should be Japanese.

As soon as MacArthur heard that there was a problem with the Japanese, he immediately became furious, and it was simply unforgivable that these little men dared to assassinate him, and he immediately ordered the investigation to focus on the Japanese, and soon there was a new discovery, they found a large number of secret documents in Japanese business institutions.

Among them, there are the situation of the Philippine garrison, there are also maps and minerals, as well as port hydrological data, all of which are so large that the Americans are also dumbfounded, and the Japanese have secretly done so many actions under their noses, and the shock to the Americans is absolutely unparalleled, and even Washington can't sit still!
