The Zhenyuan crossed the ocean and went straight to the United States, Bismarck once said that God favors three kinds of people, drunkards, fools and Americans!

It may sound like a joke, but North America is a place of divine favor, with the Appalachian Mountains to the east and the Rocky Mountains to the west, and the vast Great Plains between the two mountain ranges, which is the best and most extensive arable land in the world.

China and the United States are similar in latitude and land area, but the area of arable land in China is only about half of that of the United States, and the quality is much worse than that of the United States.

The two east-west mountains are rich in mineral resources, although China has a large amount of iron ore, but the taste is generally not high, almost all have to go through the process of beneficiation, and the Americans can almost directly smelt from the mines.

Another point that makes people jealous, that is, rivers, China's big rivers are east-west, with a large drop and limited capacity, while the Mississippi River in the United States is north-south, with a capacity seven times that of the Yangtze River, and it can also connect the Great Lakes and connect the economically developed north and south regions of the United States.

Of course, this part of China is not all shortcomings, at least in the winter China does not face crazy snowstorms, in the summer does not encounter violent hurricanes, and there are countless famous mountains and rivers to enjoy.

The most speechless thing about the United States is that it has a two-ocean barrier, which guarantees the security of its homeland to the greatest extent, and now the size of the US Army is about 20 in the world, which is not even comparable to Romania, but the Americans can sit back and relax and sit back and watch the situation.

After thinking about it carefully, Qiao Yu even felt that the United States might be God's illegitimate child, and he was too favoritous, of course, envy was useless, compared to China. The United States is still a little kid who has only been a nation for more than 100 years. Over the past 5,000 years, China has been accustomed to the chaos of rise and fall, which has consumed all the ancient civilizations in the world, and naturally it is sure that the Americans will be consumed to death.

Seeing him raise the Zhu Tower, seeing him feasting guests, seeing his building collapse......

Qiao Yu and his entourage directly crossed the American-controlled Panama Canal and came to New York Harbor. The visit of the Chinese president to the United States is also a big event for the United States, as the heads of state of the most powerful countries on both sides of the Pacific will meet for the first time to discuss the issue of world peace.

The American media have reported on Qiao Yu's deeds one after another, among which the most talked about by Americans is that Qiao Yu studied in the United States for a period of time when he was young, and many media have introduced that it was this experience that made Qiao Yu embark on the road of overthrowing the Manchu Dynasty. Everything was done under the inspiration of Lady Liberty.

Of course, this is just the media putting gold on their faces, in fact, when the Zhenyuan arrived at the port of New York, the United States also sent the Yorktown-class aircraft carrier Enterprise to greet it out of courtesy, but this American cutting-edge aircraft carrier and the Zhenyuan are put together, which pales in comparison.

The displacement of the Enterprise is only 20,000 tons, which is half smaller than that of the Zhenyuan, and it is still an open bow, which is far less beautiful than the closed bow. Then there's the issue of painting. It is also important that the Zhenyuan has a silver-gray livery. Looks like a king, and the enterprise is naturally reduced to the status of a foil.

Although the United States has the most powerful industrial capacity, it still takes time to accumulate shipbuilding technology, and it needs to move forward in the midst of continuous mistakes, and it will take some time for the United States to surpass China.

Twenty years ago, most people had the impression that China was still a backward country with big pigtails, the sick man of East Asia, and almost no different from the indigenous people of Africa, but in just 20 years, China has grown into an awe-inspiring country, and the Zhenyuan ship in front of us is the best proof of China's strength.

In fact, naval and air weapons have a characteristic, that is, they are made beautiful and generous, which means that the distribution of functions in all aspects is reasonable, that is to say, it has more powerful combat effectiveness, and now the Zhenyuan is much more powerful than the enterprise, which means that the two ships are single-handed, and the Americans will be at a disadvantage.

Of course, the situation on the battlefield is very complicated, and there are many factors that are difficult to judge, otherwise, the two countries will directly declare victory or defeat after comparing the performance data, and they still use soldiers to fight, but this is also very telling that China's shipbuilding technology is indeed above that of the United States.

In the port of New York, US Secretary of State Hull has come to greet him, and a large number of media reporters have also gathered here, as for the number of Chinese, the number of black pressure is all over the port, and everyone is waiting for the arrival of the master of the Eastern world.

When Qiao Yu calmly and chicly stepped on the land of the United States, the cheers on the port were endless, and all the Chinese were waving various welcome banners and slogans, many of them came from the west coast of the United States.

Blood-linked, both descendants of Yan and Huang, to be able to stand tall in the world, every Chinese is sincerely proud, Qiao Yu in the port after a brief speech, went straight to Washington, meeting with Roosevelt is the highlight of this time.

There is still a lot of curiosity about the president Qiao Yu in a wheelchair, a disabled person can stand out in the highly competitive American society, serve as president, and sit for four terms, creating a history, Roosevelt is the emperor of the United States to a considerable extent, and his power has reached a peak.

To be able to do this, Roosevelt is definitely a rare big politician in American history, and you must be careful enough to deal with this kind of person, Qiao Yu has been thinking about how to deal with Roosevelt all the way.

On the lawn of the White House, Roosevelt has been waiting here for a long time, and Roosevelt also has a strong interest in the ruler of this eastern power, and it is absolutely a miracle that he can make a country that is free to be eaten by others become a recognized power in the world in a very short period of time, and if you calculate carefully, China has fought against almost all the powers except the United States, and now it still maintains a record of complete victory, which is even more terrifying.

In this world, perhaps the master of the Soviet Union and the head of state of Germany can be compared with the master of China, and what surprised Roosevelt even more was that Qiao Yu almost never made mistakes in all general directions, and Roosevelt, who was also president, naturally knew how difficult it was, so he was also full of curiosity about Qiao Yu.

The two presidents finally met for the first time before the White House, and out of respect for the disabled, Qiao Yu took a few steps and took the initiative to cover his hands with Roosevelt. Roosevelt also had a warm smile on his face. The two big hands were clasped tightly together.

Although Roosevelt was physically disabled, his palm was very powerful, and Qiao Yu shook it tightly, and then said: "I have been looking forward to this day for a long time, and the United States warmly welcomes your arrival!" ”

"Mr. Roosevelt, many misunderstandings in the world occur because they do not understand, and China and the United States should move around frequently. Deepen mutual understanding and cooperation! ”

The two presidents shook hands together, and the spotlights on the side kept flickering, and it is conceivable that the meeting between the two presidents will become the front page headlines of major newspapers tomorrow.

There were actually a lot of things to talk about between Qiao Yu and Roosevelt, and the two of them soon came to a special conference room surrounded by everyone for closed-door consultations.

"Your Excellency, the President is facing a rapidly changing international situation. What do you think? ”

Qiao Yu smiled slightly, "Mr. Roosevelt, this topic is a bit too big, but I just want to say a few points, no matter how the world changes, China and the United States should maintain a close relationship, the Pacific Ocean is vast enough, and there is no need for us to have a direct conflict; In addition, the current international order, dominated by Britain and France, has huge constraints on both China and the United States. It's a very unfair order. I was looking forward to change; In conclusion, I would like to say that China and Germany will not form an alliance! ”

Qiao Yu's three points all directly hit Roosevelt's biggest concern, that China is unwilling to go to war with the United States. It will not form an alliance with Germany, so that there will be no direct threat to the United States, and the United States will also have great dissatisfaction with Britain and France, which is also the common interest of China and the United States.

Roosevelt didn't expect Qiao Yu to be so direct, but he was also very happy that it would save a lot of trouble to be able to talk to such a keen and frank person, and Roosevelt then asked: "Your Excellency, do you want to use Germany to change the world pattern?" ”

"Isn't the United States doing the same thing?"

Qiao Yu asked rhetorically, and Roosevelt smiled slightly: "It seems that our thoughts are the same, but I want to know what China's bottom line is on the territorial issue, I know that it is a bit presumptuous to ask like this, but I still hope to be able to get your guarantee!" ”

"Mr. Roosevelt, China has been a powerful country for the vast majority of the past two thousand years, with a large number of vassal states, and now China must also restore these spheres of influence, only in this way can China's homeland be secured!"

Roosevelt naturally knew which areas Qiao Yu was referring to, and now most of these were under the control of the British, Qiao Yu could indeed be honest when he said this, and Roosevelt was also very pleased, this demand was still within the acceptable range of the United States.

"Mr. President, I am very pleased with your frankness, the pursuit of national security is China's legitimate right, but we do not want to see the use of violence to solve the problem!"

"Mr. Roosevelt, maybe not, someone is already ahead of us!" What Qiao Yu said was naturally Japan, just when Qiao Yu went to the United States, Japan officially bombed the island of Java, soldiers had begun to land on the island of Java, and the entire Dutch East Indies were changing hands right in front of him.

Qiao Yu's words are very clear, there is no need for China to do it next, Japan has started a war of aggression, and Roosevelt also knows what Qiao Yu means, and he said: "Mr. President, the situation in the world is getting more and more serious, and the United States also needs to expand its navy at present, and we are ready to build four more aircraft carriers!" ”

"It's totally possible, the Pacific Ocean is vast enough, there is no problem in putting down dozens of aircraft carriers, as long as the two countries can respect each other and maintain communication, there will be no problems."

Roosevelt thought that the issue of military expansion had always been the most eye-catching issue of various countries, and Qiao Yu would never agree easily, but the facts were completely beyond Roosevelt's expectations, Qiao Yu did not object at all, which really made him a little unable to figure out Qiao Yu's thoughts, in fact, Qiao Yu's idea was also very simple, that is, with the industrial strength of the United States, if you want to riot soldiers, no one can stop it.

It is better to simply agree, and it can still win the first opportunity for the next step of negotiations, and now it is still the United States that is putting forward conditions, and China also has its own interests that concern it. (To be continued.) )
