The atmosphere in the United States is weird!

Almost on the first day of Kentaro Kaneko's arrival in the United States, on his first day in San Francisco, he sensed the strangeness of the American atmosphere. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"The United States presents two very different perceptions of the war between China and Russia, in Roosevelt's speech, China stole Hawaii from the United States, and the Chinese stole the "Republic" at the hands of the American diaspora to impose brutal Oriental-style tyranny there. Chinese On the other hand, Russia's attack and seizure of the Philippines before the US Asian Detachment attacked the Philippines during the Spanish-American War, which had a much greater impact on the Americans than the Hawaii incident, because the Hawaii incident did not have much direct impact on most Americans, but the Spanish-American War set off a war frenzy in the entire country...... Therefore, to resolve the differences between China and the United States, we must start from Hawaii......"

In his diary entry on the first day, Kentaro Kaneko wrote that as a special envoy from the Tohoku, he also knew that this would be the core of his diplomatic mission in the United States, and that what he needed to fight for was American neutrality in the war.

Under the faint starlight, several red brick buildings are faintly visible, one of which is covered with ivy, walking on the campus of Harvard University, Kaneko Kentaro only feels as if he seems to be stuck in a memory, the last few years of his survival career in the United States, it was at Harvard University that some large trees of unknown age stand quietly, and the dense leaves are whispering in the wind.

Although the old appearance of the campus evokes Kentaro Kaneko's memories, he has no time to reminisce about the past, and the reason why he came to Harvard University this time is because he accepted the invitation of Harvard University to give a lecture on the Sino-Russian war and give a lecture to Harvard students, as a Harvard graduate. He naturally knew the impact these students would have in a decade or twenty years.

Before Kaneko Kentaro arrived in the United States, the Trans-Baikal front was in a stalemate. At the beginning, some Americans began to say that "China is dangerous", how can a country like China have an advantage in resisting Russia, the world's largest army nation? What's even worse is that the Northeast is only three provinces in China, and this disparity in strength is huge. Even the gap between the South and the North back then.

However, the fact is the opposite, the Northeast Army has won successive battles, so the Americans have completely changed their view of China towards the Northeast, and no longer regard it as a group of "despicable looters", but as a strong one, after all, hundreds of thousands of Russian troops have now been surrounded in Trans-Baikal. The largest battle in human history could end with a Chinese victory at any time.

Of course. In fact, as early as when Roosevelt became vice president, he made a big accusation against the "seizure" of Hawaii in Northeast China, and even more so after he became president, he even intensified his claim that it was a despicable and shameless robbery, and in his mouth, Northeast China was a group of "thieves" and Tang Haoran was a "thief." And it even swore that "the United States will forever retain the right to regain the Republic of Xiaweiyi".

Under the influence of Roosevelt for several years, it can be said. To a large extent, public opinion and the people in the United States have been influenced by Roosevelt, and witnessing this scene, Kaneko's feelings are complicated, and this is the situation that Kaneko Kentaro is now facing, a political situation in which the political atmosphere is hostile to China. Even the people have a hostile attitude towards China.

Of course, Russia's treatment in the United States is not necessarily much better, China is taking advantage of the danger of others, and Russia is taking advantage of the fire to rob, which is precisely why. In the public opinion of the United States, it is more inclined to lose both countries, and then the United States takes the opportunity to recapture Hawaii and the Philippines, of course, this is just the idea of a few people, and for most Americans, they do not approve of the United States getting involved in the war.

However, this does not change the fact that the American hostility towards China is entirely due to his old friend, Theodore. Roosevelt.

"It seems that the Hawaii incident that year was planned by you!"

Silently muttering about this fact in his heart, Kaneko Kentaro couldn't help but be a little disappointed, in his previous speech, he had tried to ease the differences between China and the United States, but in the course of the speech, many Harvard students were concerned about the direction of the war between China and Russia, and also demanded that China withdraw its troops from Hawaii.

"Restoration of Hawaii's Independent Status ......"

Thinking of the protests of the American students, Kentaro Kaneko couldn't help but show a hint of ridicule.

What a joke, when the Americans planned the "coup", why didn't anyone care about the independent status of the Kingdom of Hawaii? ”

"Your Excellency, you have also studied in the United States, and in the expansion of the United States, you have never considered the interests of other countries, such as Mexico......"

The envoy's sneer made Wang Chonghui hurriedly say that as a graduate of Northeastern University, he is studying at Harvard Law School, and this time Kentaro Kaneko arrived in the United States as a personal envoy, and he was his personal assistant.

"For the white race, their discrimination against the yellow race is in the bones, and it is for this reason that they will never reflect on the gross interference in Hawaii, and in their view, our protection of Hawaii is undoubtedly infringing on the interests of Americans......

With such a muttering in his mouth, Kentaro Kaneko's expression suddenly became extremely solemn, and in the current United States, he seemed to see a thick cloud of war. Roosevelt's naval expansion ignited the flame of military expansion in the Pacific Ocean and even ignited the fuse of future Sino-American confrontation.

"Wangjun, if all goes well, we have a good chance of winning this war......"

Kentaro Kaneko's tone was extremely firm, and he did not doubt that Tohoku had the possibility or chance of winning the war.

"We're going to win!"

Wang Chonghui nodded in agreement, for this, any person from the northeast will not doubt, and they are also full of expectations for victory, as overseas students, they can clearly feel the discrimination of foreigners against Chinese, and they can also feel that after the outbreak of the war, with the victory of the northeast again and again, those foreigners look at their eyes change, although there is still discrimination, but at least it is no longer as naked as in the past, if the northeast wins this war. Undoubtedly, China will really squeeze into the club of great powers, and at that time, who will still discriminate against Chinese?

"I'm not thinking about winning or not winning, I'm thinking about ......"

After a slight pause, Kaneko Kentaro said with a sigh.

"Twenty years. Maybe ten years from now, the confrontation between us and the United States may even lead to a new Pacific war, Wang Jun, I think, maybe the war between China and Russia is just the beginning of all this......"

When he came to the White House at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, looking at the open lawn of the White House and the people entering and leaving the White House, Kentaro Kaneko couldn't help but admire the difference in the United States. Perhaps only in the United States, even civilians can enter the presidential palace at will, and then hand their business cards to the staff of the presidential palace and ask to meet the president.

It's only the United States!

Kentaro Kaneko, dressed in a ceremonial dress, walked towards the White House with emotion, and the occasional tourists and lawmakers who entered and exited the White House would look at the Oriental man in surprise, and many of them had already recognized him and whispered to him.

It's that gold!

It's the gold that went all the way from San Francisco to Washington!

After entering the reception room of the White House, Kentaro Kaneko handed his business card to the White House staff. He had come to meet Roosevelt as an old classmate. Not as a personal envoy, which is where he is the smartest. He didn't want the first meeting to be too official.

"Will he receive him?"

Despite his close personal relationship with Roosevelt, Kaneko knew very well that his old classmate was different from others, "a standard imperialist" in Tang Shuai's words, and that man had only the interests of the United States in his eyes at a very young age. As early as when he was the assistant secretary of the navy, he planned and participated in the Hawaii incident, which shows his character, and it is really difficult to deal with such a person!

Wish......

Just when the heart is praying. In an instant, another door in the reception room opened, and out of the room was Roosevelt, whom Kentaro Kaneko was going to visit this time, wearing a suit and a thick beard Theodore? As soon as Roosevelt saw Kentaro Kaneko, he enthusiastically and voluntarily stretched out his right hand to shake hands with him and said.

"My old friend, why didn't you send me a telegram before you arrived in Washington, or I would have met you at the train station......

Hypocrisy or truthfulness, at least at this moment, Kentaro Kaneko seemed to have found his old friend, and he hurriedly said with a smile.

"Old friend, didn't I come? When I was at Harvard, I believed that you would achieve your dream of becoming the White House! ”

Then when the two entered the oval office arm in arm, most of the White House staff watched this scene in amazement, after Kentaro Kaneko arrived in the United States, but he mentioned the "Hawaii incident" countless times, mentioning the "unconstitutional behavior of the US Navy" in the incident, and their Mr. President, who was the behind-the-scenes participant in this incident and the advocate of "mastering Hawaii", how could the two of them seem so close now.

Perhaps, this is a politician.

"Kaneko, I'm glad you to come to Washington, ten years ago, when Japan was occupied by Russia, I sent you an invitation, but unfortunately you refused, what? Now you're starting to play for the Chinese? ”

Listening to Roosevelt's words, Kentaro Kaneko hurriedly replied.

"Thank you for the invitation, and now, I am also working for the liberation of Japan."

His answer was as expected by Roosevelt, and he spoke in a mocking tone.

"The United States has always opposed the Russian occupation of Japan, and now that your emperor is dead, including his heirs, do you think the Chinese will agree to Japan's independence after winning this war?" I can tell you with great certainty that they will occupy Japan and ...... like the Russians."

"Yes, Mr. President, I also believe that there is such a possibility......"

Roosevelt's words startled Kaneko Kentaro's heart slightly, and he seemed to sense something.

"The Japanese are of the same language as Chinese, and I think that in the future of China, Japan will join as an equal member, rather than as a slave like Russia......

Kentaro Kaneko has a clear consciousness of the fate of Japan in the future, and the demise of Japan makes him convinced that a decisive battle between the yellow race and the white race will definitely break out, and that war is directly related to the yellow race, to be precise, the right of East Asians to survive in the world, and it is precisely because of this that he will agree with the "East Asian integration", of course, this integration is premised on the overthrow of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

"Ah......h

Slightly stunned, Roosevelt said in surprise.

"I really didn't expect that the original gold would say that, and if I told you that the United States would fully support Japan's independence in the future, would you still think so?"

"When you were at Harvard, you once said that you always need to pay in return, so what is the purpose of the United States helping Japan? Is it for the ports of Japan? Is it to confront China? I think Japan will always have to pay the price, Theodore,"

Staring at his former friend, Kentaro Kaneko said in a firm tone.

"You have to know that right now, under your leadership, the United States is moving on a different path, and this is a path of confrontation, my friend, it will be a path to war, ten, fifteen, twenty years, and by that time, maybe the whole Pacific will burn......"

"If I didn't know you, I'd take this as a threat of war!"

Roosevelt stood up, walked over to his desk, and pulled out a cigar.

"The Chinese occupation of Hawaii has forced me to make some reluctant choices, like helping the Russians, but I should be grateful to Chinese, without them, there would be no Russian fleet, and Congress may still be arguing over whether to expand its navy, but now, there is no more ......contention."

"Well, it's time for the Russian fleet to leave, my friend, we all know that your invitation is only for the Americans to feel the strength of the Old Continent!"

Kentaro Kaneko shattered Roosevelt's idea in one sentence, that the United States would have limited help to Russia.

"What is your position in this war? Is it China and Russia fighting to lose both? In that case, the United States has a chance to profit from this? ”

After a series of rhetorical questions, Kentaro Kaneko deliberately added.

"Perhaps, for the United States, this is the best option, but what if China wins this war? My friend, have you thought about this, have you considered, the Pacific Ocean at that time? (To be continued.) )
