Chapter 208 for the aircraft carrier

At the same time, the U.S. Senate and the U.S. Senate were still engaged in a heated debate over whether to declare war on Japan first. Since the invasion of Southeast Asia by the Japanese and Western expeditionary fleets, the controversy about this has begun. However, because the United States has pursued isolationist diplomacy since its founding, many people realize that sooner or later the Japanese army will invade the Philippine Islands and that there will be a war between the United States and Japan, but many more people feel that they should not take the initiative to get involved in this war. So much so that although President Roosevelt was biased towards **** and believed that he should take the initiative to go to war with Japan in order to ensure the interests of the United States in Southeast Asia, he could not get the support of enough members of both houses and was unable to issue effective orders. Even when two nuclear experts were "killed" by Japanese agents, they could only protest.

The news that the British broke through the Japanese prisoner of war camp in Singapore with the help of the Cadet Army and rescued more than 30,000 captured officers and soldiers was an opportunity for the US government to publicize the war. At the same time, the U.S. government has become more enthusiastic about initialling cooperation agreements with the cadet army.

On this day, President Roosevelt summoned Gu Lianyun again - when Secretary of State Hull urged him three times to no avail, Roosevelt personally stepped in.

Gu Lianyun and Guo Muyi went together, and in Roosevelt's office in the White House, the two sides first had an in-depth discussion again on the situation in the Far East and related matters of cooperation, and then talked about aircraft carriers.

Just as the Japanese have speculated, although the American people are still singing and dancing and there is not the slightest hint of war, the US government and military are already actively preparing for war. On the day of the invasion of Southeast Asia by the Japanese-Western Expeditionary Fleet, Roosevelt issued an order to investigate and count the active combat strength of the US military. The event ended three days ago, and then the secret deal made by Wallace, a member of the Skull and Bones Society, and the Cadets was revealed.

Involving a 100 million transaction, the purchase and sale items are American active warships, including a brand new attack submarine, Rao is Roosevelt has long known that there is a problem with the purchase of naval weapons, but he is still angry. Roosevelt's original intention was to thoroughly investigate the matter and recover the relevant ships, but after learning the news of the "Singapore Prisoner of War Camp", he held back his anger and looked at the matter from another angle, so he had today's summons.

took out the relevant investigation report and handed it to Gu Lianyun, the old man in the United States picked up the coffee in front of him and tasted it leisurely, while observing Gu Lianyun's reaction.

Gu Lianyun was shocked at first, but quickly calmed down. Handing the investigation report to Guo Muyi, she looked at Roosevelt and said sincerely: "Mr. President, I'm sorry for this kind of thing. What I want to say is that you understand our urgency - as a maritime power, we do not have an ocean-going fleet, and as a result, we are blocked by the Japanese and have no way to fight back......"

Gu Lianyun was very smart, based on her understanding of the Skull and Bones Society, and seeing that Roosevelt took out this report on such an occasion, she instantly judged that the other party obviously did not mean to delve into it, so after apologizing, she took the initiative to show weakness in order to arouse Roosevelt's sympathy.

It was the first time that Guo Muyi knew about this matter, and he quickly glanced at the report, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart for the audacity of the commander-in-chief, and then his mind turned quickly, thinking that it was time for Chen Shichang to return to China - "The Americans are in a hurry to initialize the agreement with us, and they must feel that the war between the United States and Japan is not far away." If you don't go back, don't requisition it to the U.S. government, that is really a loss for your wife and a soldier. ”

Gu Lianyun did not expect badly, Roosevelt really did not mean to delve into this matter, but took the opportunity to put forward a quid pro quo, hoping that the Cadet Army would send at least one group army to help the United States defend the Philippines. His exact words were: "Your army has accumulated quite a lot of actual combat experience in the confrontation with the Japanese army, and these are exactly what our young men lack, so we need the help of your army." I sympathize with your plight and understand your desire to strengthen your maritime defense capabilities, so we have decided to recognize it, even though it is an illegal transaction. Of course, in order to silence those who talk nonsense, I need your military's full cooperation on the Philippine issue. ”

Gu Lianyun originally wanted to prevaricate again under the pretext of "needing to ask the commander-in-chief for instructions", but Guo Muyi took a position in front of her, promised it in one bite, and suggested that the agreement would be initialed tomorrow.

Guo Muyi behaved very cheerfully, although Roosevelt did not know his status in the Cadet Army very well, but seeing that Gu Lianyun had no objection, he naturally welcomed it. So the two sides agreed to hold formal talks tomorrow to formally initialize the agreement.

On the way back, Gu Lianyun frowned and asked Guo Muyi: "Is this what the commander-in-chief means?" ”

"For the time being, it's still my intention, but the commander-in-chief will agree," Guo Muyi replied.

Gu Lianyun's brows furrowed even tighter, and said, "It's about the future of more than 30,000 apprentices, you are too hasty." ”

Guo Muyi replied: "Do we have any other choice?" An aircraft carrier is the commander-in-chief's greatest dream, and it is also the future and hope of the army and even the country, so no matter how big the sacrifice is, it is worth it. Aren't you, lady, a headache for the Jews' lack of cooperation? This is an opportunity to resolve this matter. ”

According to the agreement reached between the Zionist Organization and the Cadet Corps, one of the two aircraft carrier groups built by the Jews in the United States would be handed over directly to the Cadet Corps. However, because the Jewish Chamber of Commerce and the Scholar Army in Guangzhou gradually drifted away from Germany, and the Restoration Organization wavered in its attitude on this matter, so although the two aircraft carrier fleets had been built, the Jews refused to deliver them to the Scholar Army under various excuses, which has now become a problem for Gu Lianyun.

Gu Lianyun originally intended to negotiate with the Restoration Organization on this matter recently, and if it didn't work out, he would report it to Ouyang Yun, but when he heard this, his heart moved, and the expression on his face soothed.

Guo Muyi continued: "It can be seen that the Americans are very eager for us to send troops to the Philippines, and we can take this opportunity to get them to put pressure on the Jews - have you noticed, lady? During this period, the debate between the US government and the people about going to war against Japan became more and more intense. If my prediction is correct, there will be a war between the United States and Japan within this year. At that time, the U.S. government may requisition our fleet, so I think it's time for Commander Chen to leave the U.S.-"

Gu Lianyun also thought about this problem, but she didn't see it as thoroughly as Guo Muyi. She nodded thoughtfully and said, "The situation you said is indeed possible, but this matter is too important, we should still ask the commander-in-chief's opinion." ”

Guo Muyi nodded: "This is a must." Then he thought for a moment and said, "If my expectations are correct, the commander-in-chief will soon have an order related to the evacuation of the United States sent to Commander Chen." ”
