Chapter 1042: Nightmare (Part II)

"The commander-in-chief, Zhan Mao, the commander of the Nanyang Army Division, has already sent eight telegrams. Ask the headquarters when they will be allowed to go to a full-scale war against the Japanese army?! ”

Su Zongzhe, chief of the General Staff of the National Defense Forces, smiled bitterly and handed the telegram to Tu Menghu, who smiled helplessly. They can understand this anxiety of the Nanyang Army Division.

After all, they haven't stayed for a day or two in the deep mountains and old forests, they have been staying for a year or two. If it weren't for good military discipline and constant news of victory, some of them would have chosen to escape long ago.

The General Staff of the Wehrmacht, on the other hand, had given several orders for all-out operations, but they were eventually withdrawn because of changes in the battlefield. There were so many people in the Nanyang Army Division, and if the losses were too great, they would not be able to withstand the subsequent attack of the Japanese army.

"Now is the best time, but also the most dangerous time." Tu Menghu sighed: "Although the Japanese are now attracted by us to a large number of troops on the Weijiang line, it is precisely because of this that the Japanese navy's surveillance of various parts of the South Seas has gradually strengthened. ”

"The Japanese Navy is just called a navy, but in fact they have their own huge land warfare system. It also has weapons including heavy artillery and tanks. At this time, if the Nanyang Army Division launched an attack, it would only attract their attention. The odds are not ......"

Tu Menghu's explanation, Su Zongzhen also understood. However, the Nanyang Military Division may not have understood, although the order will be resolutely carried out. But the belly discussion is certainly indispensable.

Su Zongzhe told Tu Menghu about this, and Tu Menghu was also silent. He knew that the officers at all levels of the Nanyang Army Division were eager to make meritorious contributions, after all, they were all elite soldiers selected by various departments.

Now their comrades-in-arms are fighting in full swing in Annam, Myitkyina and other places, annihilating or expelling most of the troops of the Liangyan army. And they have nothing to do in the jungle, which no proud warrior can accept.

"It's the rainy season, and when the rainy season is over, I'll give them permission to attack!" Tu Menghu calculated that the negotiations with the Axis and allies would only be a few months at most.

Once the negotiations are over, the Southeast Asian battlefield can be fought in an all-out way. The first to attack was definitely the Wehrmacht troops in Annam, which would undoubtedly attract all the Japanese firepower to Annam.

Subsequently, there was the outbreak of Nanyang and other places. At that time, the Japanese army will not be able to take care of Nanyang and other places, and by that time, the navy will also have formed a certain combat effectiveness, and it is time to pull it out for testing.

"When the time comes, the Naval Combat Unit will assist them in their joint operations and at the same time deliver supplies to them." Tu Menghu pondered for a while and said, "Let them continue to wait, I won't allow them to attack the Japanese now." ”

Saying that, Tu Menghu smiled and said, "Besides, it's not them who are the ones who take the lead......

It really won't be them, but the major families of the South Seas. These wall grasses have found that the Japanese army is unreliable, so they are ready to find new backers.

If it is according to their ideas, it should be to reach out to European and American countries such as the United States or the United Kingdom. But now a part of the population is persuading them to take advantage of the chaos and become independent, and to take control of the entire country into their own hands.

The offer struck a chord with them, and some families had begun to contact other allies to seize power while the Japanese army was withdrawing from the South Seas.

Everywhere they even laid out their next steps, and when they seized power, they declared their neutrality in the war. Then sell resources, waterways for money.

Worst of all, their family was able to make a fortune in the war. The short-sighted monkeys can't help but drool at the thought of the yellow gold.

The reason why they are not doing it now is not because they have seen the Japanese navy's surveillance of them with foresight. Rather, it is because their internal interests have not been properly divided.

It's a money-making business, and everyone wants to get a piece of the pie. Some people even clamore that the United States rose from a neutral position in the war, so that they can rise in this war and eventually become a world power.

But what they didn't know was that Wang Yajiao, who was planning all this, had been sneering behind his back watching these monkeys jump up and down. The more happy they jumped, the more excited Wang Yajiao became.

As long as they are on this path, then the IDF can find sufficient reasons to uproot them. When the time comes, the entire Nanyang region will be clean.

Such a Nanyang is the Nanyang that truly belongs to the coalition government. The existence of these families can only be cancerous. Getting rid of it is the best.

"Your Excellency Hull, what do you think of the Coalition Government's proposal that the entire Northeast Asian region must be brought under the Coalition Government's sphere of influence after the war and that we do not want to enter it?"

Churchill asked Hull at tea time, a little upset. This was also Stalin's question, and Stalin urgently needed to know the attitude of the United States towards it.

If the Americans allow China to occupy Northeast Asia, then there is no doubt that the post-war Soviet Union will have difficulty challenging China's position in Asia. Most of the Asian regions where the Soviet Union is located are large wildernesses like Siberia.

Only in Northeast Asia will there be a large number of countries, and if these small countries become the cluster of coalition governments, then the position of the Soviet Union in Asia can be imagined.

At the same time, the European side would certainly not accept the entry of the Soviet Union. At that time, the Soviet Union will be embarrassed, and the two sides are not human, which will greatly curb the development of the Soviet Union. And this is not what Stalin wanted.

"Prime Minister Churchill, President Roosevelt has made this clear in the Cabinet meeting." Hull smiled unhurriedly: "What we need to see is that whether we want to join the government or not, we will control the Northeast Asian region." ”

"These areas are almost the lifeblood of the coalition government, and they are impossible to cede. I believe that they have been moving in Northeast Asia behind their backs, and we all know in our hearts what is going on with North Korea's current 'Seungunmun Gate'. It's just that they're now making this condition explicit. ”

Churchill was silent, he did not know that in fact, the coalition government had gradually controlled the situation in Southeast Asia and Northeast Asia. After the war, for these local coalition governments will certainly support pro-Chinese governments.

But if this is the case, then not to mention the British Empire, other European countries and American countries will not be able to enter this region. Choking Southeast Asia and Northeast Asia, the whole of Asia is playing with the coalition government.

That's a terrible thing...... Stalin smiled bitterly in his heart, but did not bring it out on his face. For some reason, Stalin always felt that Hull had looked at him a few times, intentionally or unintentionally, when he said these words.

In fact, when Roosevelt made this decision, there was another passage that said this.

"We are now forced to cooperate with the Soviet Union because this war has threatened our roots. And in fact, whether we want to admit it or not, the Soviet Union is also a great threat to us. We need to contain this threat. So now we're going to get moving......"

"In my opinion, the containment of Soviet China is undoubtedly our natural ally. The greedy red bear has never stopped demanding from them, and they are more wary of the Soviet Union than we are. ”

"So, if the Soviet Union is to have no time to care about the Bering Strait and Europe, then a strong, threatening China is what we need." At the conference, Roosevelt said so.

"To support China, to prop up a strong China that is hostile to the Soviet Union. This would have left the Soviet Union restless and unprepared for anything else. As he spoke, Roosevelt smiled at the meeting and said: "As for the benefits we have paid, we can completely wait for China and the Soviet Union to go to war or when both sides are exhausted and then get back step by step......

At this point, the strategy of supporting China in this war in the United States has been decided. Support China and contain the Soviet Union to a certain extent. Let them fight, so that they cannot threaten the interests of the United States.

This is the decision made at the cabinet meeting. Unfortunately, Roosevelt did not expect that some would convey the resolutions of this conference to the coalition administration.

It is certainly impossible to say that it is too specific, but the policy of "containing the Soviet Union and supporting China" is still known to the coalition government. After careful consideration, Yan Zhengqing and others had a rough idea of the decision made by the United States.

"Northeast Asia is connected to the Pacific Ocean, so wouldn't it be appropriate if they just monopolized it?!" Stalin frowned and said: "The security of the United States in the Pacific is at stake here, doesn't the US Congress take care of it at all?!" ”

Hull laughed, it is undoubtedly extremely risky to attack the United States across the Pacific. Unless it's an all-or-nothing gamble, there's no way to do it. Since Japan has already taken the lead in the United States, the United States will certainly pay attention to security in the Pacific Ocean in the future.

Stalin would mention this only because if the coalition government monopolized Northeast Asia, there would be no doubt that the Soviet Union would be the first threat.

With the Wehrmacht naval forces at the base supply points, it was completely possible to block all the ports of the Soviet Union to the Pacific Ocean. And the situation now is that the naval forces of the Wehrmacht have made great progress, while the Soviet Union is still standing still.

In this case, it is logical for Stalin to put forward such an opinion.

"Congress thinks it's right for us to support our allies in this situation." Hull smiled and said, "And even if they control Northeast Asia, they can't threaten the United States for a while." We can also have an outlet for the Atlantic. ”

"And we and the coalition government side of the trade interference, I believe there will be no problem......"

There will be ghosts! Stalin thought angrily, but Hull had already said so what else could he say?! can only say goodbye with a blue face.

After he left, Churchill said worriedly: "Your Excellency Hull, although I know that you are here to contain the Soviet Union. But will we pay too much?! With China in Northeast Asia, it may not consider going to Europe or the United States to seize our interests......"

"Prime Minister Churchill, I thought about this before I came. But our Excellency President Roosevelt told me a Chinese story called 'Two Peaches Kill Three Warriors'......"

As he spoke, Hull smiled and told Churchill the story that Roosevelt had told him, "two peaches kill three soldiers." Then he said: "Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia are those two peaches. China and the USSR, naturally, are warriors. But they will all end up losing themselves for competing for these peaches......"

Churchill smiled and didn't ask any more questions. In fact, Hull did not finish speaking, and Roosevelt's original words at that time were: Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia are two big peaches, while China, the Soviet Union and Europe are those three soldiers.

As long as the United States provokes it, there will inevitably be people who can't help but try to snatch the peaches first. Let them grab it, after the robbery, everyone will be weak, and the United States will pick this ripe peach......

This time, Roosevelt used a conspiracy. It is the urgency of the coalition government to control these two areas for the sake of its own territory and surrounding security.

At the same time, the Soviet Union was also the same, and although Southeast Asia was not a great threat to the Soviet Union, Northeast Asia would affect the Soviet Union's access to the Pacific Ocean. If it was in someone else's hands, the USSR would not be able to sleep.

"The peaches are there, but the scholars may not be ......" Tu Menghu put the telegram sent from the United States on the table, and said with a smile: "But I don't know if the person who was going to pick peaches at the end will regret his intestines when he finds that there are only two soldiers and one soldier does not dare to fight......

In front of Tu Menghu, Yan Zhengqing smiled and did not speak, Roosevelt's methods have shown the superb level of a politician. Unfortunately, he seems to have overlooked that the allusion came from China.

Moreover, China is not the stupid warrior who knows how to charge. As far as politics is concerned, China has a history of thousands of years, and various conspiracies and conspiracies have emerged one after another since the Warring States period. There are countless political ideologies and statecraft of all kinds.

Therefore, Yan Zhengqing and other politicians who have stood on the shoulders of their predecessors understand one thing better than European and American politicians: Hegemony is not a long-term plan.

And, and different. The way to go is to go the long way. Of course, it doesn't mean that Yan Zhengqing and they won't be domineering. When the bottom line is reached, the ferocity they show is absolutely terrifying.

For example, the prisoners of war in Japan and Southeast Asia, who are now building roads, believe that they will deeply understand this.

"Politics is shameful, and those who use it without knowing their shame are foolish. Those who know their shame and use it are villains, and those who know their shame and do not use them are gentlemen. And the gentleman is not allowed to be a politician. Tu Menghu suddenly muttered something that Yan Zhengqing had told him before.

And as he spoke, he himself laughed: "In this way, the teacher, us, and Lin Gong are all villains~ Hahaha......"

"A true gentleman can't be in politics, but he is only a hypocrite. If you are a country, why not be a hypocrite?! Yan Zhengqing was still smiling, and there was bitterness and relief in that smile.

The Soviet Union, Trotsky has been having nightmares since the great defeat of the Soviet army. Often, he wakes up in his dreams. When he woke up, he couldn't stop smiling bitterly beside the bed.

Even if he didn't want to admit it, but he knew it himself, he began to fear. Although the Soviets had experienced wars, the wars of that time were completely different from the situation now.

The Germans and their mighty torrents of steel continued to tear through the Soviet defenses, approaching Moscow step by step. Tukhachevsky, the youngest marshal of the Soviet Union, at the front, sent a series of urgent telegrams.

The losses on the positions were staggering, and the entire Soviet Union had to accept the bitter fact that the Soviet Red Army could not prevent the iron hooves of the German army from wreaking havoc on Soviet soil.

The news from Tukhachevsky was only: defeat, defeat, rout! Weapons and ammunition were in extreme short supply at the front, and an unanticipated rout led to the capture of a large amount of supplies by the Germans.

At the same time, the fighting Soviet troops were sometimes even faced with the dilemma of having less than a base number of ammunition in their hands. As long as the Soviet fighters appeared in the sky, those German fighters pounced like sharks that smelled blood.

Since the beginning of the war, the Soviets have lost more than 70% of their fighters. Due to the lack of actual combat, the Soviet fighters could hardly compete with the German army.

Many times, the Soviet troops on both sides were fighting passively.

"Knock knock...... There was an urgent knock at the door, and Trotsky put on his clothes and asked, "What is it?!" ”

"Comrade Trotsky, Comrade Kalinin has returned from the front. He asked to see you right away, and now he is waiting for you in the Kremlin conference room......"

"Okay, get ready for the car right away. We'll go over now. Trotsky said, got up and opened the door. The secretary and the driver were already waiting outside the door, and then they led Trotsky to the car outside the door.

When Trotsky met Kalinin, the smell of gunpowder from the battlefield had not yet dissipated from the old man's body. The members of the Supreme Council of the Soviets present were all smoking cigarettes and saying nothing.

"Everyone is here, Comrade Kalinin, you can tell us about the situation at the front first......" Trotsky said, glancing at the crowd, "what has the situation come to ?!" ”

"Almost ......collapsed," Kalinin said with a wry smile, "The German attack was so sudden that we were completely unprepared." Now the most serious problem is that we have no way to deal with the German tanks. ”

"The Germans should also have a terrifying bomb, which is relatively accurate. The power can destroy underground fortifications of less than three meters, which is a great threat to us......"

Kalinin flipped through his notes and reported to the commissioners little by little on the current situation on the battlefield. Every time a situation was mentioned, the faces of the members of the Supreme Council of the Soviets present here became a little ugly.

"Finally, Comrade Tukhachevsky advised us to prepare as early as possible. If the Germans continue to attack, then there is no doubt that they will approach Moscow......"

After Kalinin finished this last sentence, he closed his notes and said nothing. And Trotsky's heart sank straight from his chest to the bottom, and Tukhachevsky was the youngest and widely recognized strongest marshal of the Soviet Union.

He has made such a judgment, so what is the current situation on the battlefield can be imagined......
