Chapter 822: I Can't Wait
PS: Thank you for the tips ^_^ from the book friends "Wangyun Mountain People" and "13558774512".
Aceh was known as the Three Buddhas in ancient times, since the Tang and Song dynasties, has been friendly with China, and has a deep hatred with the Javanese people who have always been anti-Chinese on the island of Java, the war between the two nations has basically not stopped before the Western invasion, just because neither has the ability to build large ships, resulting in too much local combat advantage, and as a result, no one can destroy the other for thousands of years.
After the world entered the Age of Discovery, Aceh was colonized and invaded by the Portuguese and the Dutch, and the heroic and warlike Acehnese put up stubborn resistance for hundreds of years until the beginning of the twentieth century. Historically, I don't know if the Dutch deliberately made the entire Dutch East Indies independent into a single country, merging the Acehnese with their sworn enemies, the Javanese, the so-called "Indonesia", and under the electoral mechanism, the Acehnese, whose population is only one-half of the Javanese, will naturally never be able to gain the leadership of the new country of Indonesia, and Indonesia will soon become one of the most important anti-Chinese countries in Southeast Asia.
Hu Weidong, who knew history well, naturally would not let this kind of thing happen again in this time and space, so when the Pacific War broke out, he knew that Japan would be defeated, and he began to plan in advance at that time, and now he suddenly launched it while the Japanese themselves were unable to protect themselves, and it really contributed to the independent establishment of the Acehnese people without blood. Although for the time being, only two countries in the world, China and Japan, have recognized the newly-born "Aceh People's Republic," Hu Weidong believes that this issue will be resolved sooner or later.
By nurturing the Kiaceh People's Republic, China will not only have access to Sumatra's rich resources such as oil and iron-rich ore. It also has full control over the Strait of Malacca, a strategically important sea lane, while also ensuring the security of the Malay Peninsula.
However, China's dispatch of troops to Sumatra has greatly angered the US government, but since the Chinese government dares to do so, it is not afraid that the Americans will turn their back. Just three days after the U.S. government accused the Chinese government of secretly colluding with the Japanese fascists with unprecedented toughness, the Chinese government announced in a high-profile manner that since the Japanese troops on Borneo had been basically wiped out, the more than one million local Chinese who had been forced to leave could finally return to China
The Chinese Government immediately expressed strong protest and openly criticized the numerous acts of aggression against China by the United States since the Opium War and the persecution of overseas Chinese in the United States, such as the "Chinese Exclusion Act." The U.S. government is required to publicly apologize and compensate the descendants of the victims for a total of $12.7 billion. As a result, the U.S. government naturally scoffed, but Roosevelt, after careful consideration, finally endured this breath and did not immediately declare war on China. They plan to wait until Japan is completely defeated before making a move against China.
However, the withdrawal of the United States caused the Soviet government to abandon its hopes. In addition, the Soviet Union continued to maintain a large army in the face of depleted manpower, but it has been frozen. Both the economy and the population (Note 1) suffered enormous losses, and even Stalin could not hold on.
And by the end of 1948. The total number of regular troops in the Chinese People's Liberation Army has increased to 15 million, and the news that shocked the world was that China successfully tested the world's first hydrogen bomb on December 26, 1948, with an explosive yield of 3.1 million tons
Eventually, the Chinese government gave up its demand for war reparations and agreed to "return" all the people of the eastern Soviet lands back to the Soviet Union (for the current Soviet Union, even these millions of people cannot be abandoned, and for China, this will also facilitate China's digestion of new territory, so it is natural to agree). Subsequently, the Soviet government formally signed the peace treaty, agreeing to the Yenisei River, the Eastern Sayan Ridge, and the Western Sayan Ridge as the new demarcation line between the two countries. At the press conference after the formal signing of the peace treaty, the leaders of the two countries said that the peace treaty was signed in accordance with the will of Comrade Lenin, the revolutionary mentor, and on the premise that both sides were consciously and voluntarily signed, and that the two sides agreed that after the settlement of the problems left over from history, the relations between the two countries and the two parties will usher in a real and great development.
For example, the Soviet nuclear experts who had been stranded in China returned to the Soviet Union with the atomic bomb and even the hydrogen bomb technology they had learned, while many Soviet scientists such as Sukhoi decided to stay in China from then on.
More importantly, the Soviet Union and China also reached an important consensus at a secret meeting -- "In the future, the Soviet Union will be responsible for Europe and the Americas, while China will be responsible for Asia and Oceania, and as for Africa, each will show its powers." Privately, this division of labor also makes China in Asia and Africa, especially the Middle East, which is the richest in oil and gas resources, and Australia, which is extremely rich in iron ore resources, only need to face the enemy of the West, which is undoubtedly a good thing
As for the Americans, who knew nothing about this, they were still fighting desperately with the two axes of Japan and Germany at this time, and after transferring the four Montana-class battleships in the Atlantic to Asia, the US Pacific Fleet finally gained overwhelming sea power again, and the airfields in the Northern Mariana Islands were built so that American land-based jets could participate in the war, and the US military finally succeeded in gaining a foothold in the Ogasawara Islands after paying a lot of price, and finally took all the islands of the Ogasawara Islands in January 1949.
Prior to this, the B-47, the first jet strategic bomber with actual combat capability in the United States and even in the world, had begun to be equipped with troops, and the US military was building a large airfield on the Ogasawara Islands on the one hand, and on the other hand, it continued to attack northward and approach the Japanese mainland. At this time, the Japanese government's international payment capacity had been completely exhausted, and it was unwilling to accept the conditions proposed by the Chinese side: "the southern part of the Korean Peninsula will be returned to the Korean People's Republic and the Ryukyus will become independent." "Without the support of oil and jet fighters, and the country's depleted manpower, the situation is becoming more and more embarrassing
Note 1: Since the vast majority of the population of childbearing age went into the army, the Soviet Union experienced negative population growth in 1948, although the number of people who died in the war was lower than in any previous year, and this negative growth caused by fewer births was even more terrible for a country than the negative effects caused by war casualties.
