Chapter 1651 is left and right
When An Jin sent back an urgent report to the General Staff in the name of the commander-in-chief of the war on the Northern Front, An Yi was returning to the banquet hall of the State Guesthouse on the shore of Sword Lake to entertain the British and French ambassadors.

Heydrich's Gestapo work was so effective that the intelligence agencies in Britain, France, and Germany were almost completely destroyed, and there was no effective access to high-level information. However, Britain and France still found clues from the Soviet Union and judged that the Soviet Union may have signed a secret alliance with Germany.
Under the leadership of the Soviet army Zhukov, the victory in the Battle of Kirov was achieved, and then the victory was pursued eastward, connecting the cities of Nizhny Tinovo, Prosnitsa, Igumnovo, Zuevka and Falenky, but Yar was stubbornly resisted by the Far Eastern Army.
The Far Eastern Army used the mountains and hills on both sides of the Chepu River to frequently harass the flanks of the Soviet army, and paid attention to the combination of various forces in the defense, anti-tank trenches, trenches and fortresses constituted a three-dimensional defense system.
On the southern front of the Urals, the Far Eastern Army held the hilly area on the left bank of the Volga, not greedy for merit or rash advance, and Camershin on the southern flank of the hills entered the northern defense line of Stalingrad like a nail, and took it as the center to carry out raid operations.
The Far Eastern Army also built a large number of riverside fortresses with Kamyshin as the center, cutting off transportation and communication on the Volga. The western front of the entire hilly fortification area, with Saransk, Penza, and Barashov as nodes, supplemented by the construction of fortifications and fortresses in the mountains, plus the rear has a railway for communication, which can easily mobilize troops to reinforce, one side is attacked, and there are reinforcements on the left and right, and the attacks launched by the Soviet army from Murom and Savo have all failed miserably.
Many may ask, why did the Far Eastern Army suddenly become so heroic and combative?
In fact, it is very easy to understand that the Far Eastern Army is also the old foundation of the Soviet Red Army, especially the troops formed by several Red Banner Corps of the former Primorye, Khabarovsk and Amur Territories under the command of Blyukhel, which can be called the elite of a hundred battles, and the intrigues and tricks of Moscow can certainly confuse the troops who defected or were captured to join the Far Eastern Army in all previous operations in Siberia, but how can they impress the soldiers of the border regions who have clearly opposed Stalin at the beginning?
Everyone knew very well in their hearts that in order to divide the Far Eastern Army, Moscow could open its eyes to the troops that joined the Far Eastern Army after losing the battle in the later period, but it would definitely not let go of the more than 10 million soldiers and civilians who stood on the opposite side of Moscow at the beginning.
It is an old Soviet tradition to settle accounts after the autumn, so many units of the Far Eastern Army did not surrender even if they fought to the last one, not for anything else, but only for their relatives in the rear to have a stable living environment, so that their wives and children would not be wiped out because of the defeat at the front.
Especially after hearing that the Anjia Army had successfully blocked the pace of the Japanese army's westward advance in Tatarsk, the morale of the Far Eastern Army was suddenly greatly improved, and the originally crumbling defense line was immediately consolidated.
The territory occupied by the Far Eastern Army is not small, the territory occupied by the Ural and Western Siberian regions, the Urals is the industrial sub-center of the Soviet Union, Saratov, Sezran, Ulyanovsk, Kazan, Izhevsk, Grazov, Perm, etc. are all industrial center cities, rich in coal, iron ore, copper ore and other resources, heavy industry is extremely developed, and a large number of oil fields are densely populated, plus Svidlovsk, Chelyabinsk, Tyumen and other industrial centers in Western Siberia, as long as they can be properly operated, The Far Eastern Army still has the capital to compete with Moscow, and because of the relative concentration of people and resources, the situation is better now than when it first entered Siberia.
Under these circumstances, the Soviet army did not increase its troops on the Eastern Front, but instead increased the deployment of troops in Eastern Europe and Northern Europe, which made the spies of the Soviet Union more vigilant, and they judged that the Soviet Union was very likely to have reached a conspiracy with Germany to consolidate the Western Front first, and then resume the attack on the Eastern Front.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, British Ambassador Darwin finally expressed his deep-seated question: "Mr. President, Ambassador Bell and I have received a proposal from the Minister of Foreign Affairs of your country requesting us to send troops to join the coalition forces entering Siam. ”
"Sir Darwin, I think my Foreign Minister has told you why, the German Foreign Office this morning formally requested that Germany be allowed to send troops into Siam to protect its nationals, and we in South China do not want to arouse the suspicions of our friends, so we invite Britain, France, the United States and other countries to send troops together to show our sincerity."
The French ambassador, Bell, asked puzzledly: "If you really don't want to, wouldn't it be enough to simply reject the Germans?" Why do you ask us to join us? You must know that due to the loss of Annam, France has only a few smaller colonies in Asia on the South Asian subcontinent, and it is impossible to draw troops to Siam. ”
Bell's words were full of loneliness.
An Yi explained: "We in South China are only a small country in the region, and if we rashly reject Germany, it may lead to unpredictable and serious consequences. Moreover, I think that the citizens of Britain, France, the United States and other countries in Siam have long been looking forward to the rescue of their own national army, and we in South China will provide such a platform, which will surely greatly increase the prestige among the people of various governments, which is a win-win good thing, why refuse? ”
Darwin shook his head and said: "Mr. President, the current situation in Europe is extremely tense, according to the feedback of our intelligence officers, there may be some secret alliance signed between Germany and the Soviet Union, and a major war is about to break out, in this case, it is impossible for us to transfer troops to Siam." ”
An Yi frowned: "Both your country and the French government preach people-oriented, can't even a company or even a platoon of troops be deployed?" ”
Bell smiled bitterly: "Mr. President, it is not a question of the number of troops, because to transfer troops from the country to Siam, it has to be agreed by the government, parliament and the army, and it is estimated that it will be a few months before the bill is passed, which is far from the one-week deadline required by your country." It's not that we don't want to, it's that we don't have the ability at all! ”
Darwin also said: "We have a regiment in Borneo, a brigade in Malaya, a brigade in Burma, and the rest of the troops are mainly concentrated in India to fight the rebel guerrillas there. With the Soviet army raging in northern Afghanistan, we could at any time send our troops north and block the Soviets outside Persia to ensure the safety of our oil fields, and we would not be able to divide our forces to Siam at all. As Ambassador Bell said, it's not that we don't want to, it's that we can't do anything about it. ”
An Yi was silent for a while, and suddenly suggested: "Sir Darwin, Mr. Bell, what do you think of this?" At present, there are about 50,000 people who have taken refuge and treated in South China, Australia, and they are mainly distributed in Mong Cai City and the surrounding areas of our country, can we select 50 people from these more than 50,000 people, and we will provide weapons to form an Australian platoon as the British army;
"So far, there are about 600,000 expatriates in South China, some of whom moved here before South China's independence, including plantation owners, farm owners and some business owners in the five provinces and regions of South China, the staff of the office of the French company Annan, and the service personnel recruited by France in bars, nightclubs and other entertainment venues. In addition, there are the shipyard workers sent by France to Annam, the French soldiers who volunteered to work in South China after being captured, and the workers, engineers, experts, and scholars recruited by France on our own, as well as their families. We could have recruited a platoon of soldiers from among the former soldiers to enter Siam under the guise of the French army.
"All we need is a righteous name and an explanation to the people, think of the majestic and majestic posture of the troops carrying the British and French flags marching into the city of Bangkok, what a great comfort it brings to the diaspora, and I think the support of your government will increase dramatically as a result."
Darwin and Bell looked at each other, and both saw a hint of surprise and admiration in each other's eyes.
Although there are many dirty problems with Australia on the issue of autonomy, and the Commonwealth countries have refused entry and other quarantine treatments for the plague that occurred in Australia, which has aroused great disgust among Australians, but in the end, 90% of Australia's population is British immigrants, and Great Britain has feelings, and in the sequence of the British army, the Australian troops and the Canadian troops have always been the backbone, and they are naturally qualified to represent the British army.
As for the French army, there are nearly 100,000 French expatriates who were originally French soldiers captured in the South China Liberation War, and they have received systematic military training, and as trophies, the warehouses of the Anjia army are all kinds of materials for the French army, and they can easily arm a French army.
An Yi's proposal is so tempting that it doesn't take much effort from Britain and France to organize an army in the Far East and enter Siam in a grand manner, and think about the British and French military flags flying over Bangkok, how much of a sensation would such a photo be caused by publishing it in the British and French media?
As for the combat effectiveness of these two armies, as well as possible casualties, this does not need to worry too much at all. You know, Nanhua has made it clear that they will not be allowed to go to the front, but simply carry out the task of maintaining the diaspora.
From this incident, it can be completely seen that South China is biased towards the attitude of the Allies. You must know that Germany is armed by itself, and then spends money to enter the territory of Nanhua, and all logistics supplies are at its own expense, but the British and French armies are all armed by Nanhua, and even the military expenses are paid by Nanhua on behalf of them, so it is clear who took advantage of it. Moreover, this model developed by Nanhua made the British and French ambassadors excited, and if a war broke out in Europe in the future, could Nanhua also arm the South Chinese nationals of the two countries and devote themselves to the war in Europe?
Without much thought, the British and French ambassadors readily agreed, promising to convey the South China proposal to the country as soon as possible, and if all went well, preparations for the formation of an army would be carried out the next day, and the Germans would enter Siam together.
At the end of dinner, the British and French ambassadors departed happily, and a quarter of an hour later, the British ambassador, Sir Darwin, returned and secretly negotiated with An Yi about the issuance of bonds in London, and then in the early hours of the morning it was agreed that the British would finally get the same treatment as the United States, and the South Chinese government would issue five-year bonds in London at the end of September amounting to 12.5 billion pounds with an annual interest rate of 10%. An Yi and Darwin were very satisfied with this, and they both felt that the other party had fallen into a bad deed and was secretly happy.
