While Li Junhao was thinking about the doubtful "Pearl Harbor Incident" in his previous life, several Chinese took the initiative to visit him! Seeing the name card sent by the guard, Li Junhao thought for a long time before he remembered who "Guo Taiqi" was on the name card, so he asked him to come in.

In his memory, this Guo Taiqi is also an important figure in the diplomatic history of the Republic of China, but he should not be serving as the foreign minister of the Republic of China in China now, why did he come to the United States again? If it is for official business, Minister Guo should go to the State Council! He couldn't figure out why he had come to him, so he had to see him first.

Guo Taiqi, a slightly short, stocky middle-aged man with glasses, said the first thing he said after being brought to Li Junhao's office was: "General Pan Sen, I hope to exchange important information for your strong support for China's War of Resistance!" ”

Well? This sentence successfully mobilized Li Junhao's attention completely, and immediately said: "Yes, then Minister Guo's information should be extremely important, I am willing to listen to it!" ”

Minister Guo said: "General Pan Sen, I have an important piece of information here, which is about the life and death of the US military...... But I ask that you commit to increasing military assistance to our country before listening to my information......"

After listening to him talk a lot, Li Junhao frowned and said: "Minister Guo, first of all, I want to state that the foreign military assistance plan is formulated by the president and the State Council, and I have no right to change it.

"Secondly, the exchange of information you just made is very inappropriate. You must know that for a long time before, our country has been supporting China's war of resistance, especially since it has given a lot of assistance to your government...... And how you use this aid, I don't need to say more about that, right?

"I want to know, you use the intelligence related to the 'life and death of the US military' to ask for more military aid, is it your personal intention or the intention of your government?"

Guo Taiqi was stunned for a moment, and then said a little unwillingly: "This is my personal meaning, as for this information, it is also provided by a friend of mine......"

Li Junhao didn't like him anymore, but for the sake of intelligence, he still decided to give him a chance, so he directly interrupted the other party's words and said, "Intelligence? You only have a minute! ”

After fifty seconds of silence, Guo Taiqi said: "Pearl Harbor!" ”

"When?" Li Junhao didn't have the slightest expression of surprise, but asked directly.

Yes? Guo Taiqi snorted for a long time before saying, "It should ...... It's within the last two months of the year! ”

"Well, your intel is accurate!" Li Junhao said with a smile, his words were actually real praise, but they made Minister Guo on the other side blush.

Then, Li Junhao said again, "The information you just said is the handwriting of Boss Dai in Chongqing, right?" Tell him that you can contact me directly if you have something, and that an extra layer of relationship will only bring distrust and suspicion! ”

Hearing this, Guo Taiqi directly wilted, and said with some sneering: "Mr. Pan Sen, Director Dai really has information about the war here, you can see ......?"

"I know he does, but I hope that since he's decided to tell me, he'll make it all clear." Li Junhao waved his hand and said, "You tell him that if you want to cooperate, you have to show sincerity, don't make these false things!" He should understand very well that he and I can't interfere in the matter of military aid, and you can do the same. As for intelligence, I need to see the actual stuff; Whatever he wants, just say it directly. ”

——

After sending Guo Taiqi away, Li Junhao couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, Dai Li can really toss, he even asked the foreign minister of the Republic of China to talk about it, and he also used the Pearl Harbor incident as a bargaining chip! He believed that the Military Command Telecommunications Office at this time should indeed have some information about the Japanese army, but could he know more about this information?

Well, he remembered that according to the legend, it was Jiang Yiying of the Military Command Telecommunications Office who deciphered the Japanese naval telegram, and was promoted to major general as a result, becoming the first female general of the military command. If it is true, this person is still very capable, but unfortunately he is in Chongqing and cannot be used for himself.

It is now the end of October, and there are still more than 40 days left, and the incident is about to happen, but the attitude of President Roosevelt and others is still very ambiguous, which makes Li Junhao have a headache - watching the "Pearl Harbor incident" happen, doing nothing, and sitting back and watching the deaths and injuries of those Hawaiian soldiers and civilians make him feel like an accomplice!

Another point, my previous "performances" are too good, if I can't "predict" the sneak attack of the Japanese army this time, wouldn't I smash my own signboard? And he is also the acting director of intelligence and the director of the CIA, and he can't even get this kind of important war information, which is definitely a dereliction of duty!

Looks like I'm going to be the scapegoat!

He thought with some malice: Did Mr. President already think of this?

Forget it, don't think about it, let's do your job! As for the results, let's see when the time comes!

Therefore, he instructed Donovan to set up a Japanese work section within the intelligence department, which was specially responsible for collecting and analyzing all kinds of intelligence about Japan, especially the movements of the Japanese navy.

In addition, Li Junhao arranged for Xiaoyu to secretly contact Dai Xingbing and Wu Gengshu in Chongqing, asking them to pay attention to this information in the military command headquarters.

Then, he informed Wen Qiang and asked him to sort through the CIA's existing intelligence, hoping to analyze some signs from it.

He contacted the State Department directly to inquire about its recent diplomatic work with Japan.

——

Hard work pays off, and it is actually very difficult to keep a large-scale military operation completely secret, but because no one pays attention to it beforehand, it will miss the traces that look obvious afterwards; Now under the special search, I immediately found a lot of clues......

First of all, in terms of official channels, after the outbreak of the Soviet-German war, the United States extended the "Lend-Lease Act" to the Soviet Union, and at the same time began to impose formal sanctions on the Axis powers, including reducing or even stopping import and export trade with Germany, Japan, Italy and other countries, and freezing the assets of the governments of these countries in the United States.

In this context, since July of this year, diplomats at the Japanese Embassy in the United States have been in constant discussions with the U.S. State Department in the hope that the U.S. government will ease its sanctions......

According to State Department officials, while the U.S. side has apparently rejected the Japanese request, its diplomats have been pestering in recent months and have no intention of abandoning their efforts.

Simply put, this was a diplomatic bargain, but it dragged on for a long time, but because Li Junhao was completely sure that the "Pearl Harbor incident" would happen, he was sure that this was a Japanese trick and interfered with the judgment of the United States.
