So far, more than 100 countries, including the United States, have been involved in this world war, and China is no exception, and China is now in a relatively unique position in the world, although it nominally declared war with Japan and Soviet Russia, but the camps to which these two countries belong are completely different, Soviet Russia is the object of the United States and the Soviet Union, and Japan is now gradually getting closer to Germany as in history. Huaxia is like a lone man fighting against the whole world, but this is not the case, under the leadership of Su Tong, Huaxia embarked on a completely different path from another time and space.

The rapid increase in national strength and military strength has made Huaxia an extremely heavy bargaining chip that can influence the world pattern, and which side of the forces that Huaxia joins now can gain a great advantage, which is why the United States and Britain have repeatedly tolerated China's recent "outrageous" moves.

Britain is now struggling to rely on the military supplies aided by the "Concession Act" of the United States, from canned beef to large aircraft and artillery, and Huaxia also sent these materials to the British from time to time while helping Germany to transport military supplies. Although there are not many things, it is better than nothing in the end, and mosquitoes are meat to him.

Therefore, although the British government is dissatisfied with Huaxia's finally inserting its hand into the Middle East, it can only enjoy it on the lips, after all, the current British Empire is no longer the sea coachman of a hundred years ago, and it is impossible to maintain the prestige of the previous empire when the sun never sets under the lack of strength.

At this time, as soon as Lord Edie heard the word "military aid" from Zheng Xin, he immediately felt like an eggplant that had been beaten by frost... Settled. Since Churchill ordered the return of the Chinese cultural relics in the British Empire Museum to China in batches, China's aid to Britain has gradually increased, from more than 30 planes per month to more than 60 now, and after receiving a large amount of freight settled in gold from the Germans last month, the Soviet Commander, who was in a good mood, waved his hand and sent two depreciated destroyers to Britain. Take people with short hands and eat people with soft mouths. Zhou Tiecheng knew in his heart that don't look at the joy that the British are shouting now, in fact, they just want to ask Huaxia for more military aid.

Seeing that Lord Edi was deflated, Zhou Tiecheng knew that the time had come, and he would go down again. So he stepped forward with a friendly smile and said, "Ambassador Edi, don't be angry, General Zheng is such a person, he dares to say anything." However, there is one thing that he is not wrong about, my Government admires the spirit and courage of your country in fighting the Nazis, and at the time of my visit, our President was submitting to the Congress a proposal to increase the amount of military aid to your country from 5,000 tons to 10,000 tons per month, which is now being discussed by the Congress, and I believe that the results will be obtained soon.

"It's really tame"

Otherwise, diplomats are the most realistic kind of animals, and as soon as they heard that Huaxia was going to increase aid to the British, Lord Edie, and the eyes of the British officials behind him immediately lit up. At this time, Lord Edie looked at Zhou Tiecheng's smiling smile and felt that it was so kind and cute.

Just when Lord Edi was overjoyed, Zhou Tiecheng spread his hands and said that he was very embarrassed: "Of course, our people have always had no good impression of the Nazis, and many members of the National Assembly have expressed appreciation and sympathy for your country's indomitable spirit, but the problem is that some members think that our country is now short of oil, and it is not only at the risk of being sunk by German submarines to transport supplies to your country every month." They also wasted the already tight gas, and now they are both in a stalemate in Congress, which makes the president very embarrassed. ”

"Bamboo pole, see bamboo pole again!" Lord Edie's joy did not last long before he fell from the peak, and his heart was bright, and the meaning of the words of the Chinese foreign minister was very clear. "Dude is very short of oil now, brother understands!"

Although Lord Edie hated it in his heart, he still had to pretend to be concerned on his face, "I see, as a member of the free world, my government is still very concerned about the development of our allies, I don't know where your country wants to explore and exploit oil this time?" ”

In the twenties, several foreign companies were engaged in oil and gas exploration in Saudi Arabia, but no discoveries were made. In 1933, the Saudi Arabian government granted Chevron the right to explore and produce oil and gas in an area of square kilometers. In 1938, the No. 7 well was established in Dammam, and since then, the United States and Britain have begun to explore and exploit oil in Dammam.

When Tie Cheng came this time, Su Tong set him the minimum goal of obtaining the mining rights in the Ghawar region, which is located in the east of Saudi Arabia about 100 kilometers from the west coast of the Persian Gulf, and the longer the better.

Su Tong learned from the data that the Ghawar oil field is a giant oil-bearing anticline structure trending north-south, with a length of 250 kilometers and a maximum width of 25 kilometers. It consists of eight oil-producing structures. Oil can be recovered 70 billion barrels, the world's largest onshore oil field, direct 21 st century, the oil production of the oil field also accounts for half of Saudi Arabia's total production capacity, the output of about 5 million barrels, day, as long as Huaxia holds this golden doll, Huaxia will not worry about oil in half a century. And this oil field was originally discovered in 1948 in another time and space, so why not wait any longer?

Although he already has clear instructions from the boss in his heart, where would the shrewd Zhou Tiecheng easily express his stance to the British now, he just smiled faintly and shirked, "Now that we are new here, these issues will have to be discussed with the Saudi government before a decision can be made, after all, Saudi Arabia is a sovereign country, and we naturally have to obtain the consent of others to explore and exploit oil on other people's land, what about you?" ”

"That's that, that's how it should be!" The lord of the other place nodded with a smile, but he scolded in his heart, these Chinese people are really both bitches and want to set up archways, although the British power in Saudi Arabia cannot be in full swing, but there is no problem in taking a few places to explore and exploit oil for the Chinese people, but now the Chinese government wants to put aside the British government and the Saudis to talk about themselves, and the British are not good, so they can only scold in their hearts.

"Phew, these scumbags, I wish you could only mine sand." Lord Edie, who was secretly scolding in his heart, heard that Zhou Tiecheng had no choice but to walk away stupidly, he was now concerned about when Huaxia's aid would be delivered to the hands of the British mainland, and now the British mainland has begun to restrict the purchase of daily necessities, the economy of the British Empire has reached the verge of collapse, and any trace of help to the British is precious.

After sending the British away, Zhou Tiecheng turned his head and smiled at Abdullah, the Saudi king, and said: "Your Majesty Abdullah, I think the establishment of diplomatic relations between our Chinese government and your country should be as soon as possible, after all, this is a big matter related to your two countries, what do you think?" ”

Abdullah just saw a good show, seeing that the British who have always been invincible are deflated in front of the Chinese people, Abdullah can't help but secretly exclaim his surprise, and now he sees that the Chinese people have proposed to him the matter of establishing diplomatic relations as soon as possible, so he said happily: "Of course there is no problem, we can announce to the outside world tomorrow the establishment of diplomatic relations between our two countries." ”

"I wonder if His Majesty Abdullah has time, let's talk alone?" Zhou Tiecheng took the opportunity to send an invitation to Abdullah.

"Okay, please come with me." Although he didn't understand why Zhou Tiecheng was so anxious to contact him, Abdullah still invited Zhou Tiecheng and a few others to a living room full of Arab style next to him.

"Guests from afar, please take a seat at the drinking party, and immediately a servant comes in and serves Saudi coffee. Zheng Xin, who was sitting next to Zhou Tiecheng, was already thirsty, he took the Qiao coffee cup and drank it all, and immediately felt a strange smell welling up his throat. wanted to vomit but was very rude, so in desperation, he had to swallow it with discomfort.

Abdullah, who was sitting in the front, couldn't help but smile when he saw Zheng Xin so "refreshing": "It's rare that General Zheng likes our coffee so much, you must drink more." After that, the servant next to him immediately stepped forward with a coffee pot and poured the coffee in the pot into Zheng Xin's cup accurately. It is a Saudi custom that the servant never leaves the cup of the guest and the host empty, and before the cup is full until the cup is filled until the guest signals that he will not drink it again (holding the cup and shaking it gently).

But where does Zheng Xin understand these customs, seeing that his cup is full again, he thought that the master persuaded him to drink this cup again, and in desperation, he had to pinch his nose and drink it again, who knew that just when he put the cup down, the servant next to him poured the cup again, looking at the coffee in the cup, Zheng Xin's brows were furrowed.

Fortunately, Zhou Tiecheng and Abdullah had already started a formal conversation at this time, and no one noticed him, which allowed him to escape.

"Your Majesty, China is an oil-poor country, and the demand for oil is very large, so my country wants to apply to your country for authorization to explore and exploit oil in your country, I don't know if your country can give this convenience?" Zhou Tiecheng didn't hide it, and soon entered the topic.

"Hmm!" Khalid, who was sitting behind Abdullah, couldn't help but be stunned, aren't the Chinese people very subtle in their words? How is it not the same as the rumor?

"Oh? Where does the country want to explore for oil? Abdullah was also stunned when he heard Zhou Tiecheng's words, and then chuckled and asked.

"We want to explore in Manifa in the northeast and Ghahwal in the east, but I don't know if we can?" Zhou Tiecheng asked tentatively: "Of course, in return, our country will pay a considerable amount of remuneration for this. ”！。 @
