Chapter 263: We have power in China

When Wang Chonghui made the Chinese government's request to Sir Carr, Qin Wei was also telling Toddman the same request...... This is a rather shameless approach. But then again, is there any country in the world that has not done such a thing?

"There are no eternal friends or enemies in the world, only eternal interests", this sentence from the 19th-century British Prime Minister Palmerston is really too incisive, and it exhausts the changes in the relations between countries. Otherwise, this sentence would not have been the foundation of the British foreign policy.

Like Winston Churchill, the most famous British prime minister was even more daring to do such a thing.

On May 8, 1945, the day fascist Germany announced its unconditional surrender, Churchill telegraphed Stalin and expressed his hope that after the victory over the Nazi tyrants, "we would walk together on the sunny road of victory and peace." But three days later, in the midst of the "broad atmosphere of goodwill" between the West and the Soviet Union, Churchill sent another telegram to US President Harry S. Truman, saying that he was "very concerned about the situation in Europe." Russia, he said, "misinterpreted the Yalta decision, their attitude towards Poland, and their overwhelming power over the Balkan countries, with the exception of Greece...... Combined with the communist tactics they have used in many other countries, especially their ability to maintain a large military presence over a large area for long periods of time. …… They will pull down an iron curtain on the frontier. ”

Typical people on the front and ghosts on the back.

But who dares to say that Churchill was wrong?

That's right.

Although Churchill's subsequent "Iron Curtain Speech" was called the beginning of the "Cold War", Churchill's actions were indeed in the interests of the West and, of course, the interests of Britain. Because the aggressiveness of the Soviet Union at that time was not much better than that of Germany before it. It's just that the Soviet Union was lucky to be on the side of the victors. And if it had not been for the loss of too much strength in the great war with Germany, if it had not been for the fact that the United States had developed the atomic bomb shortly after the victory over Germany. Stalin may have carried on Hitler's legacy and moved the Iron Curtain forward...... That is, Churchill's worries were not at all superfluous.

But on the other hand, was Stalin wrong?

Stalin was not wrong either. Although he also expressed friendship with the West on the one hand, he also pulled down the iron curtain, and he was also afraid that Britain and the United States and other countries would suddenly turn their faces.

Therefore, compared to these great men, what Qin Wei and Wang Chonghui did could not be put on the table at all, at least not yet.

Still, what the two men did caught the attention of Britain and Germany. Germany, in particular, was shaken even by Hitler after Todmann sent the news back. Even, given China's relations with countries such as Britain and France, the Blitzkrieg, which was already in place, almost died. But then again, the arrow is on the line, and I have to ...... After urgent consultations. The day after Todman brought the news to Berlin, Guderian's panzer group stormed Poland with a mighty force.

******************************************

"This is his M's 'blitzkrieg'! This is what he M is called the strength of the force! ”

September 17, 1939. The large conference room of the Ministry of National Defense of the Republic of China. Xue Yue scolded and threw away the newspaper in his hand, with a look of yearning and depression.

"Among the Anglo-French allies, Poland is also very strong, right?" Chen Cheng's eyes looked directly at the newspaper spread on the conference table, and he was stunned: "Two weeks, just two weeks later, the government ran away?" Desertion? ”

"58 divisions. 2800 tanks, 2000 aircraft and 6000 artillery pieces...... It's horrifying. He Yingqin shook his head bitterly. I've never seen such a rich style of play in my life. Is this a war? It's just taking money and smashing people! But then again, this method really works. Two weeks, just two weeks later. From August 28 to September 13, Poland, which was said to be powerful, was in full swing, and the government was beaten away by the Germans. In other words, Poland is now in a state of anarchy, which is equivalent to a beautiful woman who has fainted in front of the thugs, and is it not up to the other party to do whatever he wants?

"We're still a long way from the Europeans." Chiang Kai-shek knocked on the table, "However, we are not Poland, and the Japanese are not Germany. ”

"Chairman Chiang, did you just want us to see how powerful the Germans were?" Bai Zhenxi also kept his head stuffy, and when he saw Chiang Kai-shek speak, he immediately asked in an unkind tone...... Dead bald people want to hit people, don't they? Guderian is powerful, but he is lucky, if he was born in China, you let him play a "blitzkrieg"! There is still a lot of drama in towing thousands of ox carts.

"Britain and France have declared war on Germany, and the Second World War has begun......," Chiang Kai-shek said.

Although Britain and France declared war on Germany, they had been sitting idly by with Poland, clearly wanting to wait for the Germans to fight the Soviet Union...... Since Britain and France did not participate in the war, it can't be regarded as a war in the 'world world', right? Bai Zhenxi retorted.

"Qin Wei, come on." Chiang Kai-shek glanced at this guy angrily, and simply left the conversation to Qin Wei.

"That...... I know that everyone still doesn't believe in the 'World War', and they all think that Germany is going to fight the Soviet Union. Qin Wei glanced at Bai Zhenxi with a grin, "Chief Bai thinks so too, right?" ”

"Britain and France hid behind the Maginot Line, and the Germans could not rush through even if they had more tanks, armored vehicles, and artillery." Bai Zhenxi felt that he had been provoked, "In this case, if they don't fight the Soviet Union, will it be difficult to gnaw stones?" ”

"The Maginot Line looks thick, but it's not flawed?" Qin Wei asked again.

"What's the flaw?" Xue Yue's perception of Qin Wei has been much better recently, and he is even more interested when he hears this: "Maginot is known as 'impregnable'. The entire fortification is made of reinforced concrete, which is extremely strong, and there are all kinds of fortifications inside, including the hospital, which extends in all directions, which is very conducive to defense. What flaws can there be? ”

"Ardennes." Qin Wei said lightly.

"Ardennes?" Several high-ranking military officials looked at each other, and they really didn't know what kind of place it was.

"It's the border between France and Belgium, and it's rugged and difficult to defend." Chiang Kai-shek suddenly interjected.

"Oh? But since it's easy to defend and difficult to attack, what kind of flaw is it? Zhang Zhizhong couldn't help but ask.

"It's really not a flaw, but as long as someone has a heart. That's the flaw. Qin Wei said: "According to our latest information, the Germans are already formulating the next military plan. The target is these small countries in Western Europe, including Belgium, the Netherlands, and so on! ”

"These are allies of Britain and France, and once the Germans attack there, and make some more difficult appearances, Britain and France will inevitably come to the rescue......" Bai Zhenxi felt that he had thought of something, "In this way, the Ardennes Heights on the Franco-Belgian border will inevitably be overlooked." When the time comes, Germany will come and attack the west......"

"British, French. Probably the Dutch would have been surrounded by the Germans, and the French Maginot Line would have become the biggest joke of all time. Qin Wei continued.

"The French don't make such a lowly mistake, do they?" Chen Cheng was a little hesitant.

"In fact, we think that the French have an 80 percent chance of making mistakes." Qin Wei said with a smile.

"And what does this have to do with us? Is it possible to change course and mix with the Germans? Xue Yue asked.

"Not so much, though. But it's not much the same. Qin Wei glanced at everyone, "The result of my discussion with the chairman." It was felt that it was necessary for China to take over some of the colonies of Britain and France in Asia! Call everybody. It is because everyone is the best general of the Republic of China, especially in the overall situation, that ...... I would like to ask you to make a military deduction together. ”

“……”

What do you mean by being confused?

What does it mean to be wide-eyed?

That's how a few people are doing at the moment.

China...... A country that has been bullied for almost a hundred years, a weak country with a big boss, and now half of its territory has been laid down by little Japan, which can be described as miserable to the point that it can't be more miserable. But that's the situation. There are still people who plan to lead it to receive some British and French colonies? These two must have taken the wrong medicine, right?

"It's just an idea, I think it's possible. That's why I called you over to discuss. If you don't think so, you can shake your head. "Chiang Kai-shek was distraught by a gang of people. He suddenly felt a little regretful. regretted that he was actually moved by Qin Wei...... How is this possible? Isn't it? China's own affairs can't be solved, so it actually wants to provoke Britain and France, even if it is to take precautions. No strength is no strength! Look, despised right? These guys still don't know how to laugh at him in their hearts. If you can't talk about it later, you'll be a shame!

"That ......" Chen Cheng quickly withdrew his gaze after being glared at by Lao Jiang, but it was too much to let him agree with this boss, which was too contrary to his little conscience: "Headmaster, the students really can't think of what strength we can have to get involved in the British and French colonies in Asia...... This, this is too exciting, that, incredible! ”

"I think it's ridiculous!" Bai Zhenxi didn't plan to sell face at all, "I was beaten so badly that I wanted to provoke stronger opponents." Chairman, we can't get carried away after a few battles. ”

"But you can't be presumptuous, right?" Qin Wei retorted.

"Arrogant? I think you are arrogant. Bai Zhenxi snorted coldly. In the Battle of Changsha, he advocated abandoning Changsha, but Xue Yue simply kept Changsha and gave the Japanese army a lot of casualties. For this, Qin Wei ridiculed him a lot. The relationship between the two, which was originally quite good, also turned cold, and when they met again, he ignored this kid. Unexpectedly, Qin Wei said in turn that he had a small belly and chicken intestines, and he had no stomach. made him half angry, and he couldn't ...... Because Qin Wei said that if he had a seizure, he would really have a small belly.

"How many battles have you fought? Fighting a war is not child's play, and it cannot be just a matter of looking at the immediate ...... Even if Britain and France were really defeated by the Germans, as you said, so what? Didn't Germany enter France during the First World War? But as a result, wasn't he driven out? I do not deny that, with our strength at this time, if we make a move against these British and French colonies in Asia, we have a certain possibility of success. But what about afterthought? Once the war was over, how could Britain and France give up? ”

"That's it." He Yingqin also chimed in: "What's more, Britain and France are still our friends. Britain has also lent tens of millions of dollars to us...... At this time, isn't it ungrateful to attack others? ”

"In other words, everyone admits that we have this strength, right?" (To be continued......)
