Chapter 1019 Seemingly calm, but the wind does not stop(1/2)
Britain is petty, while the United States is relatively happy. As Southeast Asia is out of control, they would rather choose to let their allies control it.
"Churchill may be very troubled now. I was wondering how he would convince the British Empire's parliamentarians." During afternoon tea time, Roosevelt rarely had a leisurely tea with Situ Meitang.
They were not drinking American or European afternoon tea, but the tea table was placed on the traditional Chinese tea set. A set of phoenix nodded, Guan Gong patroled the city, and Roosevelt smiled and picked up the teacup and said, "The eyes of those British MPs will always be
Stay in their own interests, and if not for this, they would not have been beaten by Germany and fled to Canada.”
Situ Meitang did not respond, but smiled and poured tea for Roosevelt. The old man knew that Roosevelt was definitely not asking him to come to talk about the British.
These British people no longer have the glory of going forward. All they can do now is to accept the conditions of the National Welfare. Whether they are willing to admit it or not, this is the fact.
"When will the National Defense Forces send troops to the Soviet Union?!" After a while of greeting, Roosevelt explained the reason why he called Situ Meitang over today.
Roosevelt knew that Stu Meitang was equivalent to the spokesperson of the United States in some ways. However, his existence was more concealed than that of the embassy.
Moreover, this kind of communication is a non-official communication, and the degree of openness and honesty between the two sides will be higher. After all, what they say will not represent the attitude of the United Political Axe official.
"We will wait until the Soviet Union has released a certain amount of blood before we will consider it." Situ Meitang did not play Roosevelt in this regard, and there was no need to play a game against the president.
He is not someone who can be easily sent, and talking to him is better than talking to him.
"The red giant bear has received your support. They have great ambitions and invasion for the territory. We have to be careful." Situ Meitang smiled and said, "If there is no certain containment, then they may not have been eliminated after the war."
They will reach out to us. In fact, we all know in our hearts that they still have great ambitions for Vladivostok and part of Mongolia now."
Roosevelt did not deny this matter, but nodded in agreement. It was both expected and reasonable that the United Political Axe would consider this matter.
After all, no country would like a powerful neighbor with territorial ambitions. From the Tsarist era to the present, the Slavs have always had constant demands for their territory.
This is definitely unacceptable to their neighbor China. Therefore, the continuous weakening of this country that poses great threat to itself has become a must-do by the coalition political axe.
Unless the country is already tired of expansion, the fight will not stop.
"The blood cannot flow too much, otherwise it will likely push the Soviet Union to the German side. The situation will be difficult to deal with." Roosevelt pondered for a while and said, "I agree with your actions to make the Soviet Union bleed,
But this must be limited. The Soviet Union cannot choose Germany."
"Your Excellency President, you can rest assured about this. We must be responsible." Situ Meitang smiled and said, "And, with the United States' troops on the Soviet Union, do we still need to worry about the repeated recurrence of the Soviets?
?!"
"Hahaha..." Roosevelt burst out with laughter and gave Situ Meitang a thumbs up. Indeed, whether to prevent the Soviet Union from repeatedly or to attack Europe, the United States was a foregone conclusion.
Whether the Soviet Union wanted to do so or not, it had to accept this matter. With the Soviet Union's own military strength, it could not fight the attacks from Germany and Japan.
Especially Germany, they have a large number of advanced fighter jets and tank troops. In contrast, although the Soviet Union had certain modern weapons, compared with Germany, both in terms of training, practical use and strategic planning were far behind.
In this case, members of the Supreme Soviet Committee such as Stalin and Trotsky were actually ready to give up a large area of territory.
At this time, the negotiations between Germany and the Soviet Union were also deadlocked. The Soviet side could not accept Germany's request for complete control of resources. The German side could not accept the large number of machinery, technology and weapons and equipment required by the Soviet Union.
It can be said that the negotiations at this time have lost their meaning. But both sides are still continuing. Both Ribintrop and Kalinin are thinking about one thing: try to delay time.
It is December 1939. There is still five long months left before Hitler was preparing to launch an offensive in May 1940, and Ribbintrov had to delay the negotiations until that time.
Otherwise, it would be a terrible thing to launch an offensive against the Soviet Union in winter. The cold will cause those precision German fighter jets and tanks to fail or even be unable to fight, which is extremely unfavorable for Germany. In the spring, Russia's roads are muddy, which will be for logistics.
It will be a huge pressure.
After a rigorous analysis, the staff of the German base camp believed that the attack was only summer. If the attack on the Soviet Union was not completed between summer and autumn, the troops would be forced to enter the defensive stage.
The Soviet Union has been urging the United States and Britain to send the originally agreed troops and technicians to the Soviet Union. Without these, it would definitely not be able to withstand the upcoming attack by Germany.
But the demand from the United States and Britain is that the Soviet Union must first launch a war against Germany, or announce its participation in the allies, otherwise they will not give the Soviet Union too much aid.
Of course, in order to ease relations with the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom still sent its own tank pilots, fighter pilots and some weapons and equipment to the Soviet Union.
At the same time, a large number of US military "volunteers" were ordered to go to the Soviet Union to provide support. They will be responsible for training Soviet pilots and tank pilots, and at the same time assisting the Soviet Union in fighting against Germany.
These volunteers were requested by the Soviet Union, and their reason was that they did not want to directly conflict with Germany head-on because the Soviet Union was not ready now.
The United States also accepted this statement. They did not choose to completely cut off aid to the Soviet Union because of this statement from the Soviet Union. Of course, a large amount of weapons and material aid must be given until the Soviet Union declares war on Germany.
"Mr. Ribbintrop, it's almost Christmas now. Don't you need to go back and accompany your family?!" Negotiations are supposed to be negotiated, but as the negotiations deepen, Kalinin also paid attention to Ribbintrop's.
People have some interest.
It has to be said that the foreign minister of the Third Reich was able to deceive the British and adopt a series of measures of unity and alliance under the chaos of Europe, which ultimately enabled Germany to raid lowland countries and become the overlord of Europe.
The methods are indeed different. Even as an enemy, Kalinin had to admit that the foreign minister was extremely good at diplomatic skills. Even though there were great differences between the two sides of many plans, the foreign minister was always able to find some of the interests.
Common points.
Many times, Kalinin is even moved by the plan proposed by the Foreign Minister.
"In my heart, the mission of the head of state and the needs of Germany are more important." Ribbintrov smiled and said, "My wife and children can understand me, and I am striving for their future."
This is the few Ribbintrov who reveals his thoughts in front of a person, and he is indeed doing these things for the future of his wife and children.
Ribbintrov's original identity was just a businessman. Although he was born into a military family and even participated in the First World War, his best attitude was to do business.
But his aristocratic title was inherited only from his aunt. He has been ridiculed for this reason. In order to enable his son to raise his head in the future, his family can gain the respect that the nobles deserve.
He was determined to make achievements, irrefutable, great achievements. In some ways, he did succeed.
With his efforts, Britain and Germany signed the "English-German Naval Agreement", which enabled Germany's naval tonnage to be 35% of that of Britain, creating conditions for Germany to expand its naval expansion.
And under his means, Britain and France watched Czechoslovakia be annexed by Germany. At the same time, the Zetan Corridor was taken back, while Poland was divided by the Soviet Union.
It was also under his wandering that Mussolini and Germany formed a "steel alliance". Although Italy's combat power was really outrageous, it was at least a European power that could openly support Germany.
"Mr. Kalinin, what about you?! Don't you go back to spend Christmas with your family?!" Ribbin Trov asked with a little interest. It was not the negotiation time, but the afternoon tea for the two.
They sat peacefully in the manor without any slightest fireworks.
"Hahaha... I am the same as you, the difference is that I am for my motherland Soviet. The task I carry out is granted by the Supreme Committee." Kalinin laughed and said, "So, from this point
We are all patriots.”
The two patriots smiled and did not continue to speak. They knew each other's position, and they knew that they might meet each other again on the diplomatic front and even on the battlefield. What should they say then...
"No need to be so troublesome. The behead who should be beheaded, the Guankui Kiln that should be Guankui Kiln. Why do you do so many things?" Annan's cannon master was extremely bored now.
Annan's current affairs are basically left to the officials sent by United Political Affairs to assist in handling. After all, there are not many officials who can handle government affairs now.
United Political Axe doesn't want to make a mess here, especially those under Ruan Qiuweng. Basically, one party has a plan, and the overall quarrel is irrelevant.
It was better to join forces with Zhengfu to send people to manage the local government affairs first, and then let their people learn from the side. There was no objection to both sides in this regard, after all, they also knew that they were all novices in managing government affairs.
But they didn't notice it, and before they knew it, many familiar faces began to disappear. Some said that they were going to form an army and would go to the front line with the National Defense Forces.
Another part is that I am asked to go to the ** School of Political Science and Law to study government affairs management, and I have to be stationed in China for internships. This is also a kind of exercise.
More importantly, the United Political Axe will identify those people who are pro-China for such a long time. At that time, they can specifically support these people, and for those who are not pro-China, they will try their best to downplay their influence.
"Commander-in-chief, we can't kill all of them or imprison them, right?" Ding Jianyuan, a foreign consultant from United Political Axe, was sent to Annan. He was helpless about the rough handling method of this commander-in-chief.
"There are almost tens of thousands of bandits we have eliminated this time. My suggestion is that except for the most serious crimes, we must either stay in Annan as a hardworking laborer or send it back to China. Now the country is also short of labor, especially in Yunnan Province.
The road is being built now. More staff are needed…”
Tu Laohu touched his chin, but he felt that the young man sent by the bigwigs of United Political Axe was really good. Now he has learned to consider himself, even if he caught a bandit from Annan, he considered giving labor to the country.
What a great thing! The tiger slapped the table and said, "Success! Just send it back to China as you said. I will deal with it here in Annan. We will suppress the bandits for them and deal with these turtle calves.
What else are they not satisfied with?!”
During this period, in order to train troops, the National Defense Forces and the newly established Annan Joint Zhengfu Army have suppressed many bandits. Those former defeated soldiers formed bandit villages of all sizes and armed forces scattered to various places due to previous uprisings.
And this time, they were completely unlucky. With the Annan United Political and Axe Army as the pioneer, the National Defense Forces were behind the scenes. Sweeping these counterfeit villages was just a matter of raising their hands.
The original weapons and equipment of these counterfeit villages are extremely poor. Some villages even have a few old single sleeves and a bunch of big swords and spears. It is natural to be packed up without any effort.
Of course, these people are also poor people. They have basically been wiped out and no good things can be found. This has made the local people in Annan happy.
After all, the bandits did nothing good. Annan was both young and poor. What could he robbed? Naturally, he robbed local food and other things, and used it for his own supplies.
Since the battle on the front gradually subsided, bandit suppression has become the top priority. Under the unremitting encirclement of the National Defense Forces, many villages of all sizes in Annan were wiped out in just over a month.
In fact, there is another reason for the National Defense Force to suppress bandits. Tu Laohu didn't believe that Qiang Di and Ruan Qiuweng would expose all their armed forces.
The best way to hide armed forces is to make them turn into bandits.
A large part of the reason why tigers do this is to clean up the armed forces of these people. At least they must be forced to the open, so that if there is any situation, it will be easier to deal with.
"Xiao Ding, pay attention to the attitude of Ruan Qiuweng and Qiang Di towards these bandits. If you need to be cleaned, clean it up and don't hesitate." Tu Laohu said with a smile: "This is good for them and for us..."
Ding Jianyuan was shocked when he heard this, nodded to show his understanding. Then he turned around and left quickly.
Qiang Di is also having a headache now, and there are really his people among the bandits that were wiped out. The Annan United Political Axe Army formed by the National Defense Forces is a closed military camp, and no one is allowed to leave the camp before the operation.
What I am afraid of is leaking the news. Therefore, the inside lines arranged by strongly arranged in the Annan United Army were unable to convey information.
Among the villages that were wiped out, at least twenty were inexplicably related to Qiang Di. These people were all teams of Qiang Di's uprisings, and most of them stayed in the deep mountains to prepare.
At the same time, the forces were constantly growing secretly and responding to the strong call at any time. But unexpectedly, these people were all captured after a while.
Qiangdi was determined to get these people out, but he was also afraid that this would allow Ruan Qiuweng and others, who were competitors, to catch the handle. Now it is Ruan Qiuweng and Qiangdi who are the manager of Annan United Political Axe.
If such a thing breaks out at this stall, it will undoubtedly be extremely lost. The National Defense Forces will even tilt their balance towards Ruan Qiuweng.
"Your Highness, it's useless to think about so much now. We can only send people to inform those people and let them not speak out. Afterwards, we are slowly picking them up."
Mei Qingqiu looked at Qiang Di and sighed: "We cannot directly interfere in this matter now, otherwise it will affect your status and reputation in the new policy. After all, it has a great impact on you.
To be continued...
