Jiang saw the secret telegram sent from Hong Kong, tapped the scepter with his finger, took a piece of paper after a long time, wrote a few words, hesitated again, shook his head, erased the words with a brush, rewrote a few sentences, and then pressed the button.

Chen Bui came in and asked, "Chairman, do you have any orders?" ”

Jiang took the piece of paper and handed it to him and said, "Give it to Dai Li, he will do it, in addition, the southwest traffic has been opened, we must negotiate with Britain, France, the United States and other countries, so that the Yunnan-Burma Highway can play the role of the main artery, I heard that Japan is also negotiating with the British, we must not let the British close our highway." ”

Chen Bui answered and walked out, and after a while, Chen Lifu walked in and said to Jiang Zhong, "Seat, this is a secret message from Ganzhou." ”

Jiang intermediary opened it and looked at it, it said that ****** bits and pieces of this time, he hummed, and when he saw that Jiang Cheng was recruiting troops for ******, he nodded and snorted coldly and said, "I hope he can eat a trench and grow wise, okay, it's okay if you come, let's talk about Yan'an." ”

Liu Yunlong looked at the smiling Ogawa Heiyoshi and said: "(1) Equality and mutual concession; (2) Restore the status quo ante to the Lugou Bridge Incident; (3) territorial (integrity) sovereignty (independence); (iv) (Japan) withdrawal of troops; (5) Signing anti-communist agreements; (6) China is in favor of economic cooperation; (7) Guarantee that the personnel of the Restoration Government and the Provisional Government will not be held accountable; (8) A separate agreement on Manchuria. These are the eight conditions that we have proposed. I hope you will seriously consider it. ”

Ogawa Heiyoshi said with a disdainful face, "This is impossible, we can accept the first and last four points, but the first four points are difficult for us to do, and, the fifth point will you do it, we are here to express doubts, so let's do it, I know that your current policy is to resist Japan and dissolve the Communist Party, which is really unfriendly, I think it can be changed to a pro-Japanese and anti-communist party, if you are willing to do this, our side can first guarantee that we will not make any offensive behavior." Otherwise"

Liu Yunlong frowned and asked, "Otherwise, what?" ”

Ogawa Heiyoshi didn't speak, and his meaning was self-evident.

Liu Yunlong thought for a while and said, "This matter is up to Chongqing to decide, but guaranteeing our territorial integrity is a prerequisite for negotiations, and if we can't even guarantee this, it will be difficult for us to continue negotiations." ”

Ogawa Hirayochi knew in his heart how much Tokyo hoped that the peace talks would succeed, but he did not dare to return all the territory that the army had worked so hard to build to China, not to mention what Tokyo would do, and which crazy army would definitely kill him.

Ogawa Heiyoshi said, "Well, as long as you make a gesture first, we can have a partial ceasefire, but our patience is limited, and I hope you will consider it carefully." ”

Yoshiko Kawashima carefully looked behind her and made sure that no one was following her. Only then did he enter the Huangliang Dream Hotel, and after docking with the guy, he came to a private room.

After a while, Zhenggeng walked in, knelt down to Yoshiko Kawashima and said, "Slave, please give Gege a greeting, Gege Chitose Chitose Chitose." ”

Yoshiko Kawashima snorted and said, "Hurry up, time is urgent, let's get down to business, the Red Party has been moving frequently recently, although I haven't found out the entire operational deployment of the Eighth Route Army, but they must be going to act." We have to figure out where they are going to attack, and if they get another big win, we are in danger. ”

Zhenggeng asked respectfully, "Do you have any ideas?" I have heard that the Imperial Army is now concentrated in our Manchuria, and as long as our intelligence is accurate, it will definitely be able to inflict heavy damage on the main force of the Eighth Route Army. ”

Yoshiko Kawashima stood up, waved her hand and said, "That's what I mean, not only that, it's best to counterattack into Shanxi and drive the damn Red Party back to Shaanxi, the Red Party is developing faster and faster, although it can't be compared to Japan, but it's a trouble after all." ”

Zheng Geng shook his head and said, "It's really difficult to know accurate information, the Red Party pays attention to dispersed guerrillas, and no one can tell what they want to do until the last moment." ”

Yoshiko Kawashima said with a smile, "The soldiers and horses have not moved the grain and grass first, we used to be in the light, they were in the dark, we wanted to know that it was naturally difficult, but now it is the other way around, you immediately let our people go to each pass to count the number of people in and out, this can be fake, but people can't do it, the Red Party likes to march at night, so you can't just look at the day, you have to watch it at night, you have to look at it at night, you have to dig out the information!" ”

What Yoshiko Kawashima didn't know was that not long after she entered the restaurant, her news entered Li Kenong's ears, Li Kenong squinted his eyes and looked at the information in his hand, and secretly had a plan in his heart.

-- Germany

Chamberlain took a car to the Rhine region of Germany, and he carefully observed the German people in the car, and found that most of the people here were smiling, the market was prosperous, and they lived and worked in peace and contentment, and they looked completely unprepared for war, and his heart was slightly settled.

As the head of state of the most powerful country on the blue star at this time, Chamberlain clearly knows how weak this empire that never sets is, and it has been overtaken by the United States, the Soviet Union, and Germany in industry, if it is not supported by the vast colonies and powerful navy, it is really difficult to maintain the current position, and all he Chamberlain can do is to use diplomatic skills to restrict these emerging countries, thinking of this, Chamberlain can't help but recall his childhood in Britain, where did anyone dare to provoke Britain at that time, the times are really changing too fast.

"Sir, here we are." The car came to a halt, and Chamberlain saw that Hitler and other senior German officials were already waiting outside.

"Well, Hitler was still very sincere." Chamberlain walked out with a smile, waved at Hitler, and walked briskly over, and Hitler followed suit, and the two shook hands together.

"Thank you, Monsieur Hitler, for making me feel your German yearning for peace."

"It's natural, we just want to take back what belongs to us, not to snatch what doesn't belong to us in the first place, I have prepared a little military parade for your arrival, I don't know if you will like it." Hitler said with a smile.

Chamberlain was stunned, he didn't hear any arrangements for the parade, but looking at Hitler's appearance, Chamberlain also understood that this military parade could not be escaped, and this was a disgrace to himself.

Chamberlain smiled and said, "Okay, let me see the majesty of your German army." ”

Everyone came to the high platform, the audience stood outside the yellow line under the maintenance of the police, Hitler looked at the quiet audience below, nodded, this is also one of the strengths of Germany, Chamberlain was about to speak, and suddenly heard a sound of footsteps.

Chamberlain turned his head to look, but saw a red swastika flag and a red eagle flag slowly walking towards the high platform, suddenly, the deafening military music sounded, closer, only to see the German soldiers in black military uniforms walking in neat steps, when they came to the high platform, everyone raised their hands and shouted at Hitler, "Hi! Hitler! ”

Hitler also raised his hands in response, and all the people cheered, one by one the phalanx walked by, first the infantry, then the artillery, watching the 88 guns, S.K18 plus howitzers, SFH18 howitzers and other cannons drive in front of him under the traction of the truck, Chamberlain's brows moved, Britain is an island country, so the army is not strong, and he does not study much weapons, but he can see that Germany's armament has become strong at this time.

At this time, a special motor sound came, and one tank after another appeared on the street, this is the phalanx of tanks No. 1 and No. 2, and Chamberlain was not afraid to look at it, after all, the appearance of tanks No. 1 and No. 2 can be described as cute.

At this moment, another phalanx appeared, and Chamberlain looked at the tank and couldn't help but stand on tiptoe, the thick barrel of the tank, and the armor that looked not thin, attracted his eyes. The tank reminded him of the Matilda tank, which was not officially installed in the UK, but it seemed that the German tank was much better than the British tank.

"What kind of tank is this?" Chamberlain asked.

Hitler proudly said, "This is our No. 3 tank, look at his long barrel, it is designed to deal with the opponent's tank, I believe that in front of him, any kind of tank will be turned into scrap metal." ”

As he spoke, Hitler waved his arms vigorously, and at this moment, a group of planes flew in the sky, divided into two teams, and posed in the shape of an "AH", which was Hitler's abbreviation.

Hitler stepped down from the stage, stood in the car, kept waving his arms to the people, and the people cheered in response to him, looking at such a fanatical scene, Chamberlain couldn't help but compare with each other, and found that neither Britain nor France had such unity and fanaticism as the Germans, and if there was a real war, I was afraid that it would be difficult for him to unite Britain.

Chamberlain couldn't help but have the idea of finding a British prime minister suitable for the war, and his mind kept flipping through British figures, but finally stopped at a fat figure.

"Maybe only that guy can insist on leading LinkedIn to fight in the most difficult times." Chamberlain sighed and said secretly.

Next, Hitler did not immediately negotiate with Chamberlain, but took him to participate in a joint military exercise by the army and the air force.

In the evening, Chamberlain asked the officer corps around him, "You have been watching it for a day, do you have any thoughts?" Are our English or French armies as good as theirs? ”

An officer shook his head and said, "It's not good to compare, our strength lies in the navy, the French army is the strongest in artillery, and it is a large artillery cluster, if there is a war, the Germans will be stopped by the Macilot Line, and then destroyed by artillery, so the strategic thinking is different, the focus is different, it is difficult to compare." ”

Chamberlain nodded, indicating understanding, and said in his mouth, "Our goal is peace, not war, at least not war against us." I hope this negotiation will be successful. ”

"But Prime Minister, this time our focus is on the Polish question, even if we negotiate with Germany, but the Poles don't agree?" A staff officer said worriedly.

Chamberlain snorted and said, "Poland is caught in the middle of Germany and the Soviet Union, and it would not be too stupid for us to obtain the most favorable conditions for him and not cherish them?" Rest assured, they will agree. ”

- Poland

Smigway Rhodes, the dictator and ruler of Poland, was watching news about the meeting between Chamberlain and Hitler.

He smiled and said, "Look, the Germans will definitely submit to the British, but we must not take it lightly, and we must be prepared for war." ”

"Commander, our Poland is no longer the Poland of the past, we can mobilize a million troops to fight at any time, even if Germany or the Soviet Union attack with all their strength, I think we can hold out for half a year or even longer." A staff officer said optimistically.

Smigway Rhodes nodded, pointed to the map and said, "We now have less than 20 infantry divisions, which is definitely not enough, to gather 40 infantry divisions in three months, and form a civil defense battalion composed of militia, divided into seven army groups, spread along the border, to repair more fortifications, to prevent German raids, how many weapons do we have now?" ”

An officer stood up and said, "We have almost 400 aircraft, 800 tanks and armored vehicles, and 11 cavalry brigades. ”

Smigway Rhodes said with a smile: "It is enough to have so many cavalry, we must not only think about defense, but also about attacking, if Germany attacks us, Britain and France will definitely declare war on Germany, and then we can use our cavalry to counterattack and burn the war into German territory." ”

When everyone heard that the war was going to Germany, they were all excited, and then they discussed the key points of the operation word by word, and finally formed a defensive battle plan that concentrated on the front line. And such a battle plan laid the groundwork for the tragedy in Poland later.

-- Modern

After two months of rushing work, the northern Sunrise finally succeeded in industrializing a new generation of photovoltaic products, Jiang Cheng and Sun Ning walked in the huge exhibition hall, which had not yet opened, and the staff was nervously preparing.

"I said Sun Ning, why do you have to come too, I still have a lot of things to transport." Jiang Cheng asked with some incomprehension.

"You're the boss, if you don't attend, Beiyue will think wildly, in order to calm people's hearts, you are the best way." Saying that, Sun Ning made minor adjustments to a few arrangements and said, "And you should also take a break, you have been transporting for almost a month, if you don't rest, the people who receive the goods over there should also take a break." ”

Saying that, Jiang Cheng couldn't help laughing, the warehouse specially prepared for him was already full, and it couldn't be transported at all, which made Ren Chi and the others feel painful and happy, and while desperately transporting materials, they urgently built a secret warehouse.

These warehouses are built in the mountains, and the transportation work is carried out by trustworthy troops, so the action has been slow, but thanks to Jiang Cheng's machinery and equipment, major factories have been started one after another, several sub-industrial centers have also begun to take shape, and the Taiyuan Arsenal has begun to develop tank armored vehicles, and everything is developing rapidly.
