Chapter 222: Mutual Exploitation

On October 29, Qin Shou and Lieutenant Colonel Steven went to Washington. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoWashington is not far from New York. By plane, it doesn't take an hour to get there.

However, after arriving at the airport on the outskirts of Washington, there were still no important people to greet Qin Shou. It seems that he just treats him as an ordinary person. After seeing the rudeness and arrogance of the Americans, Qin Shou was not surprised.

"Qin, according to the arrangement, we have to go to the General Staff first. General Dwight D. Eisenhower will have a meeting with you about the war situation in Southeast Asia. Lieutenant Colonel Steven said to Qin Shou.

Qin Shou nodded, Eisenhower was actually a major general in the U.S. Army, and the director of the War Department, who was deeply trusted by President Roosevelt and an important assistant to General Marshall. It can be said that he has a very high status and great power in the US * military circles.

Soon, Qin Shou and his party were sent to the US Army General Staff. Chen Hu was naturally received, while Qin Shou and Lieutenant Colonel Steven went directly to Major General Eisenhower's office.

When Qin Shou and the others arrived, Major General Eisenhower was waiting in the office. Major General Eisenhower, who is only in his 50s, is undoubtedly a young man in the US military.

"General, here we are." In front of Major General Eisenhower, Lieutenant Colonel Steven was very deferential.

"Hello General, nice to meet you." Qin Shou was neither humble nor arrogant. You must know that although Qin Shou is young, his military rank is lieutenant general. And Eisenhower was just a major general. Of course, Qin Shou's military rank is not recognized by the Americans at all, and it is not a bird at all.

Major General Eisenhower glanced at Qin Shou with scrutinizing eyes before reaching out to shake hands with Qin Shou.

"General Qin, hello. It's a pleasure to meet you and welcome to the United States. "Major General Eisenhower was very arrogant.

After a few words of greeting, the conversation between the two sides gradually entered the main topic. Although, both President Roosevelt and Admiral Marshall advocated Europe first, then Asia. However, this does not mean that the United States does not attach importance to the Asian theater. For the Japanese themselves, the Americans are also very hateful. They wish they had sent the day himself to hell sooner. It's just that even with the current strength of the United States, if there is a two-front war, there will be a lot of pressure. As a result, they can only reduce their investment in the Asian theater.

It just so happened that the rise of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army made up for the gap in the US military in this regard. It is undoubtedly very much in the interests of the United States to support the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army and let the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army shed blood and sacrifice for the United States.

However, the United States was also worried that there would be a situation where the tail would not fall, so when they supported the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, they did not forget to choke the neck of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, so that this army could be in their hands and serve them.

"General Qin, the performance of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army on the battlefield in Burma is very good. Although, in the battle with the Japanese himself, you consumed a lot of supplies. However, the fact that you were able to wipe out more than 200,000 days* of yourself undoubtedly proves that the materials consumed are worth it. Major General Eisenhower smiled.

Qin Shou nodded, although Major General Eisenhower's meaning was to attribute the victory of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army to the support of the United States, and did not take the sacrifice of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in his eyes at all. This hatred, Qin Shou can only write it down first. Wait until they grow in the future, and then make the Americans pay the price.

"General, in the past few months, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, with the support of the US government, has eliminated quite a few Japanese themselves. However, this is not enough. In the South Seas, as well as in the Pacific Ocean, there are still many Japanese* people waiting for us to destroy. At present, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army is developing and growing, and we are expanding the troops. After the expansion, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will grow into an army of more than 300,000. At that time, we will have enough strength to launch an attack on the other Japanese forces entrenched in the South Seas, and strive to destroy them all in the shortest possible time. Qin Shou will make a strategic plan for the future.

Major General Eisenhower nodded with satisfaction, and the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army eliminated the Japanese troops in Nanyang, which would also be of great benefit to the United States. This allowed the United States to free up its power and devote it to other battlefields to end the world war more quickly.

The consumption in the world war is too great. Even if the United States has deep pockets, it cannot support it. Last year, the United States' fiscal revenues reached more than $15 billion. But they still can't afford the enormous attrition of war.

"Qin, the U.S. government will continue to support the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. We hope that starting next year, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will launch an offensive against Thailand and the Malay Peninsula. If all goes well, land on Sumatra, Kalimantan, Indonesian and Philippine islands. Major General Eisenhower also hoped that the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army would be able to afford the entire South Seas against the Japanese army.

In this case, the United States will only need to defeat Japan at sea. The land battlefield, which was more brutal and suffered greater losses, was handed over to the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, thus controlling the losses of the United States within an acceptable range.

Qin Shou nodded, but he had no objection to this. The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army was responsible for attacking Nanyang, and of course it would pay a lot of casualties. But again, it is possible to capture these territories. The Chinese were densely populated in almost all parts of the South Seas, and relying on these Chinese, the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army could quickly establish its rule in the region. When the time comes, they occupy these areas, and it will not be so easy to want them to spit out again. Even the Philippine Islands, which originally belonged to the US colonies, if the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army had a chance to swallow it, Qin Shou would not spit it out again.

When the time comes, the Americans can get a taste of what it means to lift a stone and shoot themselves in the foot.

"General, if the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army has enough strength, we will naturally attack other areas of Nanyang. However, we may need more support from the United States. Weapons and equipment, war materials, military spending, and so on. Qin Shou made a request.

Major General Eisenhower had no objection to this. If you want these Chinese to deal with Japan for them, you naturally have to give corresponding benefits. The lives of Americans are much more noble than those of Chinese. It is much better for the Chinese to fight the Japanese themselves in the dense forests of the South Seas than for the Americans to pay heavy losses.

As for those weapons and equipment and war materials, the huge industrial system of the United States can completely produce them. In terms of military spending, the United States does not lack anything at all. (To be continued.) )
