Each of Yang Qiu's fingers attracted Rama VIII and Chen Jiale like a magic. Form a provisional government, purge the junta and local warlords who grow opium, strip the old economic system, tie the Siamese currency to the minyuan, use the minyuan as the sole settlement currency for international bulk goods, provide a package of economic reforms from the central bank, and then open the market to Chinese companies. China will transfer part of the processing industry to Siam, provide assistance to two hydropower stations, 3 million tons of oil and 10,000 walk-behind tractors, and the construction of a railway from Kunming to Bangkok via Vientiane at the expense of the Chinese government to strengthen economic and trade cooperation between the Southeast Peninsula and China and Siam. After the completion of the railway, the Siamese royal family will automatically receive 40% of the equity, and if Siam can continue to stabilize the country, after 15 years, 80% of the equity of the Siam section will be handed over to the Siamese royal family, and finally agree to join the Asian League and form a new Asian security mechanism together.

Each of them seems reasonable, tying Siam to China's 600 million population market, and even taking advantage of the beauty of the Asian League to enter the whole Asian market in a few hours of exchanges, little by little in front of Rama VIII. It was difficult for any Asian country to refuse such a temptation, so after considering it, King Rama VIII decided to agree to the conditions, and Chen Ka Lok formed a new post-war government. He also promised Yang Qiu that he would leave for Bangkok as soon as possible, and called on the people to implement reforms and make clear the evil forces that hinder Bangkok's development.

Yang Qiu is also very happy to reach an agreement, which means that the most powerful country in Southeast Asia has finally been included in the Asian League mechanism. As long as the war between the two peninsulas is over, the Asian League, which has been conceived for many years, can truly take the stage! Therefore, he specially invited Rama VIII to stay for dinner, and took care of Zeng Qi to agree on the details of the agreement as soon as possible before returning.

For politicians like Zeng Qi, who have followed Yang Qiu all his life, they know what is hidden in this agreement. But the young man was a little confused, and after the guests left, Yang Tiancheng, who was sitting on the sofa, asked: "Father, does it make sense to spend such a big price to help Siam?" I'm afraid Congress is going to say that you are taking money for favors again. Yang Tianlei next to him was much more stable, and the second brother of Lala: "Don't talk nonsense." Dad must have a reason to do this. ”

"I said big brother, this is the family, you don't need to pat yourself."

"Giggles." As soon as the words came out, the two sisters, Yang Sisi and Yang Siyu, suddenly burst into laughter, and even Yang Qiu looked angry, laughing and scolding: "Nonsense, do you have such a thing to say to your eldest brother?" After scolding, he became serious: "Poverty is always a hotbed of contradictions and extremism, and Siam is our neighbor, and opium is rampant and all kinds of forces are rampant. It is a big hidden danger outside the southwest. You should be aware that the policies I have proposed will not make Siam rich quickly, and it is up to them whether a country can finally get out of poverty and backwardness. Helping them reform finance is to allow our capital to enter, and the binding of the Minyuan is also to promote the pan-Asia-Pacific economic circle, and the construction of railways is ostensibly to drive economic exchanges, but you are all soldiers, and you should know the meaning of a railway artery in which China participates. So! All I have given them is a bright prospect, and what they have rewarded me is to nip in the bud all the voices and forces that are unfavorable to our country. Let our troops be stationed, and then tie them up in a system dominated by us! If you two brothers want to continue on the road of military circles and official careers, you must remember one sentence. Asia is not China, but China lives in Asia. Europe and the United States will also come back sooner or later. The only way to keep others from infiltrating their back garden is not to fill it with a windy bamboo fence, but to fill it up first, and then build a fence that is completely different from their ladder'. ”

The two brothers chewed on the meaning of their words. Even the two sisters, Yang Sisi and Yang Siyu, were thoughtful. Yang Qiu looked at them quietly, he would not restrain his children's own thoughts, and wait for them to digest these words. Only then did he take care of Yang Sisi: "Sisi, I have asked your Uncle Ma Kui to cancel the plan to build an oil refinery in Sumatra and prepare to transfer to Singapore, and I am ready to let you do this with him." ”

"Dad, do you want to support Singapore?"

"Singapore has taken the lead seriously in the past two years, and the economy, trade and processing industries have all been paralyzed. An oil refinery is not very important to us, but it is representative of our support for Singapore. With the nearby fields of Minas and Palembang, Singapore could become the largest oil processing center in Southeast Asia, radiating to India and the South Seas and recovering quickly from the war. In fact, helping them is also helping ourselves, a permanent naval base needs a lot of logistical support, and it is not possible to be economically backward. ”

Yang Sisi nodded, but then he was so dissatisfied that he curled his mouth: "But people are already busy to death, why don't you hand it over to the second brother?" It's also a naval base anyway. ”

"Your brother is still in the military, and these things must not be interfered with, lest they be criticized." Seeing her daughter puffing out her cheeks, Yang Qiu hurriedly persuaded: "Okay, don't be angry, I'll let your second mother help you." By the way, there is another thing, you tell Zhuo Fan's kid, if he doesn't even have the responsibility to marry my daughter, I will send him to Kamchatka! ”

"Dad! Look at what you're talking about. Yang Sisi didn't expect that Yang Qiu already knew about it, so he suddenly made a big face, stomped his feet and ran out with laughter. As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Yang Tianhui walking in with Bingwen and Wu Zhonghao. "Dad, Uncle Bing is here." Without waiting for Yang Qiu to get up, this kid got to the eldest sister's side: "Sister, what is the name of the girl who talked to you today?" ”

Yang Qiu was stunned for a moment, almost wanted to take this kid out and beat him, but shook his head helplessly and walked towards the two: "When did you come back?" Zhonghao, is your Minister Fang's health okay? ”

Bingwen and the Yang family are very familiar, but Wu Zhonghao didn't dare to be presumptuous, and saluted: "Report to the president, Commander Bing and I have just returned." Minister Fang's health is good, and when he heard that I was back, he also specially asked me to bring you some New Year's goods. You can rest assured, this is a wolf skin that he hunted with his own hands, and it is best for the second lady to use. Rui Yao's health has been very poor over the years, her legs are as uncomfortable as pins and needles every winter, and wolf skin is warm and has a curative effect on rheumatism, so Yang Qiu asked people to accept it and took the two of them to the study: "He has a heart." By the way, didn't you say you'll be back next week? ”

Bingwen immediately told him about the deal with Beria, and took out the map from his bosom and the information of the Soviet-German negotiations: "This is the information of Beria, Zhonghao judged from the departure of the Black Sea Fleet that the Soviet-German alliance is likely to be imminent!" ”

"Oh?" Yang Qiu was stunned for a moment, and handed the information to Wu Zhonghao: "I remember that you are proficient in Russian, and read it word by word." ”

Wu Zhonghao didn't expect him to have such a good memory, so he hurriedly read all the information from beginning to end. "That's right." After listening to this, Yang Qiu praised his analysis and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, Japan has just sent people here, and the Soviet-German side is going to form an alliance over there." ”

"Japan sent someone? Who is it? ”

"Hirota Hongyi, the people have arrived in Naha, I will ask Shi Zhaoji and Baili to go over and listen to what he has to say." Yang Qiu roughly talked about the matter of Hirota Hongyi's negotiation. Bingwen frowned: "Then you're not going to see him in person?" ”

"What's the hurry, our announcement of Japan's unconditional surrender has long been known to the whole world, if Hirohito really wants to surrender, just announce it directly, why bother going around in a big circle. Besides, as soon as the news of the Soviet-German alliance came out, Japan would definitely change its mind. Hehe, it just so happens that we can blow up for a few more months and make Tokuda make trouble. Yang Qiu smiled, and after finishing speaking, he called his secretary Lu Kai in, and handed over the Soviet-German information brought back by Bingwen to Wu Zhonghao: "You and Lu Kai will go back to Beijing now, find Chief of Staff Chu and Yan Baohang, and ask them to send this news to Roosevelt." Let Yu Lei and Xu Huansheng come and forget it, you tell them that I will return to Beijing in three days. ”

Yang Qiu's intelligence tore through the rare tranquility of Washington in an instant, and the footsteps inside and outside Washington suddenly became urgent.

"Gentlemen, it's a terrible situation." At the presidential breakfast, Marshall shook the intelligence in his hand and bluntly addressed the officers and cabinets present: "This is the information that the Chinese have just sent me, the Soviet Black Sea Fleet has left the port five days ago, and its destination is unknownI have warned the Turkish government and asked them to open their airspace and allow our aircraft to cross the Black Sea to reconnoiter the Black Sea, but they refused for fear of being attacked by the Germans." There have also been new changes in the North African theater, the Germans have already gathered fifteen divisions on the outskirts of Tobruk, and every indication is that they will attack Tobruk in a week, and then advance towards the Nile! So, we need to be ready for war in Turkey, Egypt and Spain at once! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Roosevelt pushed the wheelchair into some of the same. The illness of some time ago seemed to disappear from him, and his voice became louder again: "George has made it very clear that Europe is a big and delicious cake, and neither the Germans nor the Soviets can swallow it in one gulp, that will only make them indigestible." But now the Germans and the Soviets have come together and united the forces of the two families, and their appetites are enough to digest all of Europe and Africa! Our Chinese allies have achieved absolute superiority in the Asia-Pacific region, Yang Qiu is rapidly integrating Asia, and for a long time, we will not be able to interfere in the Southwest Pacific. And our British allies have repeatedly accused us of thinking too much about our interests rather than our enemies in this war, and they have also blamed Spain and North Africa for our lack of effort. These are all bad, the image of the United States is falling with the defeat, so we need to redeem it, we need to tell everyone that the United States is not weak!

So I have decided to officially declare war on the Soviet government after explaining the situation to Congress! The Turkish government has promised to join the Allies and open all its airfields and railways to us in the event of an invasion by the Soviet Union and Germany. At the same time, George and I also decided to let Philippine President Manuel Quezon return home early and lead the Philippine people's liberation war with General Stilwell! ”

The sirens of 1942 grew louder and louder in Roosevelt's speech...... (To be continued......)
