I am Jiang Weiguo in World War II

Page 639

"Modern warfare is a trinity of land, sea and air, and the army alone cannot win a battle!" Bai Chongxi, who had been silent all the time, seemed impartial and authentic, "Sometimes, the navy and air force even play more roles than the army in a war. Control of the sea and air, the situation is unimaginable.

I don't know, what is the current situation of our navy and our air force? "

Yang Jie looked at Chen Shaokuan and Ouyang Ge, winking.

Ouyang Ge coughed and said: "In terms of the navy, our navy currently has a total of 4 aircraft carriers, 2 battleships, 1 battlecruiser, 7 heavy cruisers, 10 light cruisers, and 3 auxiliary cruisers. destroyers, more than 70 destroyers, more than 300 submarines, and other auxiliary ships such as small and medium-sized ships and transport ships totaling more than 500 ships. About 50 tons!"

He Yingqin said with a teasing expression: "The navy now has so many ships, it is indeed remarkable, compared with before the Sino-Japanese War, it is a world of difference, but most of these ships are patchwork Many of the 'Wan Guo Brands' that have been picked up are even salvaged and returned to the factory for repairs and transformations!"

Chen Cheng said: "Whether it is an attack on Japan or a military confrontation with the United States, the navy is a well-deserved mainstay, but our navy is the weak spot in our armed forces.

I remember that Japan's annual shipbuilding capacity has reached 70 tons. As for the United States, it is as high as 250 million tons. The gap between us and the United States and Japan is too great! "

Chen Shaokuan said angrily: "If it weren't for the fact that a large amount of funds and resources were allocated to the Army and Air Force to strengthen the construction of the Army and Air Force, why would the Navy have to rely on picking up junk to replenish its strength?"

Yang Jie said: "President Chen, don't be impatient. The navy is indeed important, but there is no rush to build a navy. There is no way around it.

However, to put it bluntly, our navy is not talking about fighting the U.S. navy now, even if it is one-on-one with the Japanese navy, it doesn't have an advantage, right? "

Chen Shaokuan nodded: "Although the Japanese navy has suffered heavy losses from the two-year attack by the U.S. military, the tonnage of its existing ships is indeed greater than that of our navy.

However, Hitler, the German head of state, has already said that as long as our country needs it, he can immediately lease the naval fleets of Germany, Italy and France to us!"

"This is just wishing for plum blossoms to quench our thirst!" He Yingqin shook his head, "Germany is fighting fiercely with the United States on the British mainland, and the German navy is too busy to take care of itself. How can there be any extra power to help us?"

"That's why we need the strong cooperation of our Air Force!" Yang Jie looked at Zhou Zhirou, "Mr. Zhou, our Air Force should have undergone radical changes just like our Army, right?"

Zhou Zhirou nodded: "Last year, my country's aircraft production exceeded 3!" He paused, looked at Chiang Kai-shek, and said in advance what He Yingqin or Chen Cheng might want to add next, "For horizontal comparison, Germany produced 4 aircraft last year, and the United States produced 10.

In the past few years, my country's aircraft production has been increasing, and major aircraft arsenals are also producing at full capacity, except for those sold to the Germans and Japanese. Since the Chinese Air Force basically does not fight wars and does not consume much aircraft, the accumulated amount and The storage capacity is indeed not small, at present, the Chinese Air Force has about 6 aircraft equipped and stored!"

"[-] planes!" Hearing Zhou Zhirou's statistic, not only Jiang Weiguo and the others were overjoyed, but even Chiang Kai-shek, who had always been gloomy, showed a trace of uncontrollable surprise and joy.

Huang Guangrui added: "Not only that, our military aircraft are almost all new types of aircraft, especially the latest jet aircraft. More than 3000 of them have been produced and equipped, and their quality is greatly superior to that of the US military and Japanese aircraft!"

"So, everyone!" Yang Jie was full of joy, "We can't underestimate the enemy, but we can't underestimate ourselves either!"

This is the fact.

If China and the United States make a head-to-head comparison, China is far inferior to the United States in terms of comprehensive national strength, economy, industrial productivity, and industrialization level. However, if China and the United States start a game contest next, China has two major advantages. First, the United States is In a war on two fronts, more than half of its national strength and military power have to be used against Germany, which is stronger than China. Therefore, the United States cannot deal with China with all its strength, but China can deal with the United States with all its strength; second, China has not fought wars for four years. Over the years, China has accumulated and stockpiled a large amount of weapons and equipment. In a real fight, apart from the navy, the number of tanks, artillery, cars, firearms, ammunition, aircraft and other ordnance of the Chinese army and air force is not much worse than that of the US military (of course, if China and the US In a protracted war of attrition, China will definitely not be able to consume the United States, but in the early and early stages of the war, the Chinese army was "very generous" because it had accumulated and stored for four years).

"Don't forget that we still have the ultimate weapon, the atomic bomb!" Jiang Weiguo finally said meaningfully, "We are jointly developing the atomic bomb with the Germans and the Jews, and the Americans and the British are also jointly developing the atomic bomb, but our progress must be more than The United States and Britain!" Jiang Weiguo is very confident about this, because of his "foretelling, predicting things like a god", the world's well-known scientific masters related to the development of atomic bombs were either poached by him in advance, or he sent someone to kill them. The process of developing the atomic bomb by the United States and Britain must lag behind that of China, Germany and Judea.

After all, talent is the foundation of everything. No matter how rich the United States is, it cannot develop an atomic bomb without atomic bomb experts. In addition, even if atomic bomb experts can be trained, it will take time. A world war will only take a few years. Americans Without Robert Oppenheimer (Chief Scientist of the Manhattan Project, American Jewish), there will definitely not be a second Robert Oppenheimer in three to five years.

After a while of silence, He Yingqin, Chen Cheng and others did not speak out against it. Chiang Kai-shek said slowly: "Our country's current national strength and military strength are indeed very strong, and we do have the capital to participate in the final competition of this world war. However, After all, the situation in the Asia-Pacific is too complicated, and it is closely related to the situation in Europe, so whether to start a war against Japan needs to be treated with caution!"

Chen Cheng said: "Everyone, if our country wants to go to war against Japan, according to the repeated research of the Military Commission and the Ministry of Military Affairs, the best strategy is to conquer the Korean Peninsula first, and use this as a fortress and springboard for advance. The Air Force can use the Korean Peninsula as a base to attack Japan. The mainland launched a strategic bombing, and the navy could also use the Korean peninsula as a base, preparing to assist the army to cross the Korean Strait and land on the Japanese mainland with the cooperation of the air force.

There is the Sea of ​​Japan between the mainland of our country and the mainland of Japan, and the Korean Peninsula is used as a barrier by the Japanese. After taking the Korean Peninsula, the closest place between our country and the mainland of Japan is the Korean Strait with a width of only 180 kilometers, and , There are two large islands between the Korean Strait, one is Jeju Island and the other is Tsushima Island. If these two islands can be captured, they can serve as stepping stones for our army to attack the Japanese mainland.

Our army does not fight the Japanese 'Northern State' nor the Japanese 'Southern State', but goes straight to Huanglong.

However, there are many flaws in this plan. For example, can the Chinese Air Force obtain air supremacy on the Japanese mainland battlefield? "He looked at Zhou Zhirou.

Zhou Zhirou nodded: "It's not a big problem. The air force of the Japanese army and navy has been greatly weakened, and they are no match for our air force!"

"Okay, if the Chinese Air Force has gained the air superiority of the Japanese battlefield, can the Chinese Navy obtain the superiority of the sea?" Chen Cheng looked at Chen Shaokuan.

Chen Shaokuan put on a serious face, looking a little embarrassed: "The navy... will fight with all its strength!"

Chen Cheng nodded: "That is to say, our navy is not sure of gaining command of the sea.

Ladies and gentlemen, Japan is an island country surrounded by the sea. To conquer such a country, command of the sea is very important. However, it is difficult for our army to control the sea. How can we land in Japan?In addition, there is the United States.

What will happen to the U.S. military if we start a war on the Japanese mainland with Japan? "

Bai Chongxi said: "The answer is obvious. They must stand still and watch us fight with the Japanese. When Japan is about to be unable to hold on, they will come to pick up ready-made, grab the land, and share the cake. Even the Americans may even Assisting Japan secretly, turning Japan into a tool for them to consume our country, and the Japanese will definitely submit to the Americans rather than us when they are sure to lose. Japan will only change the dynasty if it loses to the United States , Japan's defeat by China means that the country has perished.

Under the circumstance that the Japanese have intentions and the Americans have intentions, the secret collusion between the two sides is almost a matter of course!"

"Not only that!" Xu Yongchang added, "We directly attack the Japanese mainland, and the Japanese have no way to retreat. They will definitely use most of their national power and military power to launch a decisive battle with us on their homeland. As for the eastern part of North Asia, the In central North Asia, the Philippines, Indonesia, India, Ryukyu and other places, the Japanese must have given up. Then, the Americans with naval superiority can take those places without any effort.

At that time, we will fight the Japanese mainland exhaustingly, causing countless casualties and huge losses, but the Americans will catch the cicadas and orioles behind them, and take the opportunity to seize the outlying areas of the Japanese territory that are not in the Japanese mainland.

Guys, we are going to lose a lot.

Even if it is Japan, we cannot monopolize it. The Japanese are desperately resisting in Japan. It is inevitable that we will win the final victory. However, it is impossible to enter Tokyo overnight. When we occupy parts of Japan, The Japanese government announced its surrender to the United States, and the U.S. military landed directly on the Japanese mainland, sharing the Japanese mainland with us.

We are really at a loss!"

"It seems that it is very detrimental to our country to attack the Korean Peninsula first, and then the Japanese mainland!" Yang Jie pondered for a while, "Then, our army will not attack the core areas of Japan first, but first attack the peripheral areas of Japan, such as Indonesia, Philippines, what do you guys think? Go ahead of the Americans and take those places, creating a done deal, leaving the Americans with nothing to say and no way to intervene!"

He Yingqin shook his head: "Those places are surrounded by the sea and need a strong navy, but our navy is not strong enough!"

Yang Jie said: "Those places are indeed surrounded by the sea, but they are not isolated islands that are completely located in the middle of the ocean like Hawaii. For example, Indonesia is next to my country's Malaya region and affiliated country Brunei. The air force of our country can make up for the lack of strength of the navy!"

Chen Cheng said: "The American spoiler is the biggest hidden danger in our war against Japan. Not only that, we also have to consider the reaction of the Germans.

Once we start a war against Japan, the pressure from the Germans will be great, and we must take this into consideration!"

He Yingqin said: "Everyone, don't forget that we have only severed diplomatic relations with Japan at the moment, and have not officially declared war or started a substantive war. Therefore, there is fundamentally room for maneuver in this matter.

If the Japanese are willing to hand over a few large pieces of land to us to appease our anger and maintain the Sino-Japanese alliance, why don't we 'have to forgive others and forgive others'?At that time, we will do business without capital again, get a few large pieces of land for nothing, and then continue to support Japan and the United States to consume it without affecting the German-American war. In the end, when Japan is about to fail, we will take action at the right time. Seize half of Japan.

In my opinion, this is the most beneficial strategy for our country!"

"What Jingzhi (He Yingqin's name) said is very true!" Chiang Kai-shek nodded lightly, and he made his position clear for the first time.

Chen Cheng said: "If we only have 'thunder and rain' towards Japan and no substantive actions have been made for a long time, then the conflict between the United States and Japan will inevitably resume. But if we continue to stand on the sidelines, will the United States and Japan live in peace? They will definitely fight again! As long as they fight again, the initiative will return to our hands.

Therefore, our best course of action is to do nothing, wait and see what happens, and stay the same!"

"Well, what Cixiu said is also very reasonable!" Chiang Kai-shek nodded gently again, and then he looked at Jiang Weiguo, "Wei'er, the atomic bomb we jointly developed with the Germans and Jews... When will it be successful?"

Jiang Weiguo thought for a while: "Probably another year!"

Chiang Kai-shek laughed: "Isn't this very good? One year, we will continue to recharge our batteries for another year, let the Americans and Japanese fight for another year, and the Germans can also last for another year. After one year, we will With the atomic bomb, wouldn’t it be possible to win or lose at one stroke?”

"This..." Jiang Weiguo became anxious.

"But, chairman, everyone!" Yang Jie said calmly, "At present, the second son has been 'died' by the Japanese. Our whole country can be said to be in turmoil, with [-] million people mourning and indignant, and the soldiers of the three armies are excited. At this juncture, we do nothing? Don’t avenge the second son? How to explain to the army and the people of the whole country? As far as I know, both the Military Commission and the Military and Political Department have received snowflakes of requests for war against Japan, right? ? At this very moment, how many people across the country are demonstrating and collectively petitioning?"

The expressions of Chiang Kai-shek and others became difficult and hesitant.

Jiang Weiguo was also deeply troubled in his heart. Faced with this "four countries and three parties" war situation, he really felt a kind of trouble that he had nowhere to use.

Chapter 730 The Horn of the Great Battle (10)

Jiang Weiguo could tell that Chiang Kai-shek, He Yingqin, Chen Cheng, and Xu Yongchang were not too much in favor of "taking immediate action". "Introduce but not send out".

Objectively speaking, the views of Chiang Kai-shek and others are also very reasonable and feasible. As Chen Cheng said, "The best way is to do nothing, wait and see the changes, and respond to all changes with the same", so "control the situation with silence" It will indeed be very effective, and it is also the most prudent and safest approach.

Right now, the Asia-Pacific region is a struggle for hegemony among the United States, China and Japan, and the struggle for hegemony between the United States, China and Japan in the Asia-Pacific region is closely related to the contest between Germany and the United States in Europe. Such a delicate and complicated situation of "four countries and three parties" is the most beneficial Balancing one's own interests is difficult.

In the eyes of Chiang Kai-shek and others, if China "mobilizes", China will lose the initiative, China will fall into a passive position, and will pull Germany into a passive position, while Japan has long lost the initiative. In the end, the United States will become the world leader. The real ruler, leader, and controller of the war; if China "doesn't move", the initiative will continue to be in China's hands, Germany will not be affected, Japan fears China, and the United States will fear China.

China is very powerful and has the power to change the overall situation of the world war. However, China's war power is like an atomic bomb. After it is launched, it has no deterrent effect. It will be the most deterrent when it stays on the launch pad; on the other hand , To put it bluntly, doing nothing is the most comfortable thing. Since you can sit and wait until the fruits of victory fall into your mouth automatically without doing anything, why bother to work hard?

"In the face of the joint attack of China and the United States and the full support of Germany behind China, Japan, which has no allies to assist and is completely alone, can say that it has no hope of winning, whether it is voluntary surrender or forced surrender after defeat. The Japanese will only have three paths in the end, one is to surrender to us, the other is to surrender to the Americans, and the third is to surrender to us and the Americans at the same time!" Chen Cheng analyzed, "From the perspective of the Japanese, they know that we treat them The hatred of the Japanese far exceeds the hatred of the Americans towards them. Surrendering to us will destroy the country, and surrendering to the Americans will only change the dynasty. Therefore, it is certain that the Japanese will either surrender unilaterally to the Americans, or surrender to us and the Americans. Surrender at the same time, the latter approach can use the conflict between China and the United States to generate hope that Japan can come back to life in the cracks.

However, the characteristics of the Japanese are very stubborn, stubborn, and extremely arrogant. Under the long-term brainwashing education, the Japanese have an almost pathological national self-esteem, and think that the Japanese nation is different. For example, the Japanese think that Japan is not Ordinary country, but a unique "imperial country", because the rulers of other countries are ordinary people, but the ruler of Japan, the Emperor, is a descendant of God. Naturally, the Japanese nation is a demigod nation that is extraordinary and refined. The surrender of the human nation?Surrender is an unprecedented humiliation for the Japanese. We all know that the Japanese have never surrendered to foreign nations for thousands of years. This is also one of the reasons for the Japanese's morbid self-esteem. Therefore, it is certain that even if unilateral surrender to the Americans is the best outcome for the Japanese, most Japanese still cannot accept it. Therefore, even if the United States and Japan secretly collude, However, if the two countries really want to turn their enemies into friends, it is not something that can be easily achieved by reaching a consensus between the top leaders of the two countries.

In my opinion, what the Japanese desire most is to be a world-class great power, and the second is to continue to be a sovereign and independent second-rate country. Unilateral surrender to the Americans is a last resort. As long as there is hope to avoid it, the Japanese must There are 1 people who are unwilling to surrender, even to the Americans!" Chen Cheng looked at everyone, especially Jiang Weiguo, "As long as there is a chance, the Japanese will not surrender to the Americans. The key is whether we Push it too hard.

If we are not aggressive, the Japanese will continue to fight the Americans nine times out of ten, and the Americans will not be able to recruit the Japanese!"

"Having said that, but..." Yang Jie retorted, "The Pacific War in the past two years has proved that if we fully support the Japanese, the Japanese can still survive. As long as we don't support the Japanese, the Japanese will be defeated by the Americans." Defeat, defeat is a matter of time.

If we do nothing, we will only see the Americans take Australia first, then take Indonesia, and then step by step take the Philippines, Ryukyu, and finally Japan.

How about we just watch?Do you want to watch the Americans defeat Japan, monopolize Japan and the Japanese territories now?Do you want to watch the Americans expand their power to our doorstep? "

Chen Cheng nodded: "With all due respect, we cannot monopolize Japan.

From the perspective of the Americans, if they want to defeat the Japanese and enter Tokyo, the best route to enter is Australia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Ryukyu, and Japan. As for the Korean Peninsula, eastern North Asia, and central North Asia, that is There is no need to fight places where the United States is too far away, and those places can just become our ready-made targets.

China and the United States eventually carve up Japan's territory, which is our most suitable ending.

Is it not enough to seize the Korean Peninsula, eastern and central North Asia?In the end, the U.S. military marched into Japan, and the Japanese would fight desperately when it was time to fight to the death. The U.S. military suffered heavy casualties. At that time, we contacted the U.S. government and volunteered to join the U.S. military in attacking Japan. The U.S. government would definitely not refuse, so , the Chinese and American coalition forces will attack the Japanese mainland together and divide the Japanese mainland equally. Wouldn't it be great? "

Yang Jie followed Chen Cheng's words and said: "That is to say, the United States will eventually get Indonesia, the Philippines, Ryukyu, and half of Japan, and we will eventually get the eastern and central parts of North Asia, the Korean Peninsula, and half of Japan?"

Chen Cheng asked back: "Isn't this good? As for Ryukyu, don't forget that we still hold the most important island of Oahu among the eight major Hawaiian islands in the United States. When the time comes, we will exchange Oahu with the Americans for Ryukyu!" He seemed smug, "In this way, our country can be described as a complete victory! And pay the least price!"

"Complete victory?" Yang Jie snorted coldly, "Indonesia was taken by the Americans, the Philippines was taken by the Americans, and half of the mainland of Japan, Minister Chen, don't you look at the map? The distance between the Philippines and the mainland of Japan is from our country." How close is the mainland? After the war, if the United States stationed millions of troops, tens of thousands of aircraft, hundreds of thousands of warships, and even missiles and atomic bombs in the Philippines and half of Japan’s territory occupied by the United States, what would we do? Wouldn’t our mainland be forever? In the shadow of the threat of the US military? Europe is the Europe of the Germans, and Asia is the Asia of our Chinese! How can we allow others to snore on the side of the couch? How can we let the Americans reach into Asia, into our territory, and into our territory? To our door?"

Chen Cheng showed displeasure: "Geng Guang, with all due respect, you are too greedy! What was our country like before this world war? According to the idea I just described, after this world war, although our country has some shortcomings, But it has fully risen, revived, and ruled the roost! Isn’t that enough? If people are greedy, they will get nothing, and so will the country.

Look at the Japanese, how greedy!Greedy to the end, nothing!Shouldn't we be learning from the Japanese? "

With a straight face, Yang Jie slightly sarcastically said: "Little-footed woman!"

"In doing things, especially formulating national policies, it is natural to be far-sighted, but..." He Yingqin said, "Excessive far-sightedness will inevitably become too far-sighted.

It's better not to do what you can't do.

Ladies and gentlemen, let me make a summary. If we fight the Japanese now, first of all, the Japanese are already on the verge of crumbling under the attack of the Americans. If we fight again, the Japanese will definitely not be able to withstand it. Under such circumstances, the Japanese will definitely turn to the Americans, making us pay a lot but gain little, and the American influence will still extend into East Asia. Moreover, if we participate in the war against Japan, the Americans can save a lot of military power and transfer to other countries. To deal with the Germans, the pressure on the Germans will be greatly increased. If the Germans cannot hold on, we will definitely be implicated; At least, we can get North Korea, Ryukyu, half of Japan, and the eastern and central parts of North Asia, and the harvest is only a lot more than the first route, and the pay is not much less than the first route!"

Chen Cheng nodded: "Actually, as long as we don't move, although the United States and Japan are already flirting secretly, but without the pressure from us, a third party, how can the American and Japanese armies just turn hostility into friendship on the battlefield? No, they will definitely continue to fight." , the US-Japanese war will continue, and the German-American war will continue. If this continues, whether it is Japan or Germany, they are helping us consume the national strength of the United States. Why not? Why don’t we see it What’s more, allowing the U.S. military to kill and wound more people on the battlefield against Japan will also make us appear more important. The more U.S. military casualties, the more impatient the top U.S. leaders will be, the more they want our help in the war, and the more important they will be. 'Let' us, by the time we defeat Japan, we will get more!"

"That's right, that's exactly the reason!" Xu Yongchang agreed, and Li Zongren nodded slightly.

Xu Yongchang was originally in the middle, and Li Zongren was originally inclined to Jiang Weiguo and Yang Jie. Both of them were persuaded by Chen Cheng and He Yingqin.

"Hehe..." Jiang Weiguo laughed, "Little Japan, sandwiched between China and the United States, is already at the end of the road and will undoubtedly die. Unexpectedly, this little chess piece actually played a big role in the relationship between China and the United States. Mei dare not act rashly!"

"Jianhao, what do you think?" Yang Jie felt that he couldn't support Chen Cheng and He Yingqin, so he handed over the right to speak to Jiang Weiguo.

Jiang Weiguo thought about Japan, which was sandwiched between China and the United States at this time, and couldn't help thinking of Germany, which was sandwiched between the United States and the Soviet Union at the end of World War II. At that time, Germany was caught between the United States and the Soviet Union, and the German army basically chose to surrender to the U.S. military. , and even the German troops on the eastern front would rather run across half of Germany and surrender to the U.S. troops in the west. It is naturally much better to be in the hands of the Soviets than to fall into the hands of the Soviets.

Right now, the same is true for Japan. The Japanese know that it is much better for them to fall into the hands of the Americans than to fall into the hands of the Chinese, so the Japanese will inevitably surrender to the United States unilaterally when they are cornered by the Chinese army or the Sino-American coalition forces However, it should be noted that when the United States and the Soviet Union partnered to fight Germany, although the United States and the Soviet Union also had conflicts of interest, the United States and the Soviet Union were allies after all, and there would not be too fierce competition for interests. But it is not an alliance. When the conflict of interests is sharp, things will be difficult to talk about.

It is also worth mentioning that Japan and Russia have been competing for the "four northern islands" in later generations. The so-called "four northern islands" are the four larger islands in the northeast of Japan's Hokkaido Island. These four islands belonged to Japan before World War II. At the end of World War II, the Soviet Union wanted to carve up Japan together with the United States, Britain, and China (according to the four-nation plan proposed by the Soviet government to carve up Japan, after Japan surrendered, the United States, Britain, China, and the Soviet Union would divide Japan, just like the United States, Britain, France, and the Soviet Union divided Germany. Hokkaido and the northern part of Honshu belonged to the Soviet Union, the central part of Honshu belonged to the United States, the southern part of Honshu and Kyushu belonged to the United Kingdom, Shikoku belonged to China, and Tokyo was divided into four parts like Berlin. "Cheap China", so that China can share the Shikoku Islands and a quarter of Tokyo), but the United States only wants to monopolize Japan, and does not allow the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, and China to take a share. The United Kingdom has no objection to such an outrageous approach by the United States The United Kingdom did not dare to offend the United States at all. China is more obedient to the United States than the United Kingdom. Only the Soviet Union is strong and no longer dependent on the United States. It wants to compete with the United States. Therefore, the Soviet army first occupied Japan's "four northern islands" and turned them into It became the territory of the Soviet Union, but when the Soviet army was about to land on Hokkaido Island, the Soviet government received a warning from the US government, "If the Soviet army lands on Hokkaido Island, the US military will directly fight the Soviet army and drive the Soviet army into the sea." Although the Soviet government refused to accept it, But at the bottom of his heart, he was still afraid of the United States, and did not dare to have a direct conflict with the United States. After all, the United States already had atomic bombs at that time, and the Soviet Union did not. Moreover, the national strength of the Soviet Union was only a fraction of that of the United States. Stalin did not dare because of this. Send troops to land on Hokkaido Island, so the Soviet Union just swallowed up Japan's four northern islands, which is why Japan and Russia competed for the four northern islands in later generations.

"It's right to be cautious, but being overly cautious will be timid!" Jiang Weiguo said, "According to various intelligence and objective reality (as well as his own "historical cheating"), I think that the United States and Japan secretly have something to do with each other." The contact should be the Japanese who saw that the situation was not good, and took the initiative to throw themselves into their arms, and it was only the wish of some people in the top ranks of Japan.

I know about Waner Ishihara. He is indeed a master in strategy and has a great vision. Rational, so in the atmosphere of the collective madness of the Japanese, he is very frustrated. He and those who think like him are just a relatively influential force in the Japanese high-level at this time, not a decisive force. Otherwise, the Japanese national policy would not be so short-sighted.

Ishihara Wanji’s secret visit to the United States was also received by Roosevelt. It was only the initial contact between the sober and rational factions in the Japanese high-level and the American high-level. This is why he attaches so much importance to it. However, Ishihara Wanji does not represent the entire Japanese high-level. Even if his strategic concept is the only correct choice for Japan, it will be difficult to put it into action. Too many high-level Japanese will strongly oppose Ishihara and others. People would even regard him as a traitor. As for Roosevelt and the top leaders of the United States, it is impossible to say that if they do not fight, they will not fight. The United States is already on the track of war, just like a train at full speed. To brake immediately, is it possible?Therefore, there is a possibility of US-Japan collusion, but it is not that simple, and it is not something that can be achieved overnight!" Jiang Weiguo remembered that at the end of World War II in the original history, Japan had already lost everything, and about 130 million people (approximately 40 people died), more than 150 million people died on the Pacific battlefield (deaths, not casualties). At the same time, the Soviet Union sent troops to Northeast China, and the 70 Japanese Kwantung Army was wiped out. Japan's two major allies Germany and Italy have already surrendered, and Japan is completely alone. The four major powers of China, the United States, the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union have united to fight Japan. In this situation of losing everything, most of the Japanese high-level officials are still stubbornly trying to "fight to the end." For example, Neiji Okamura, who was then the commander-in-chief of the Japanese invaders, strongly opposed surrender. "Ningji Okamura is considered to be a very strategic minded and visionary person among the high-level Japanese army. He is so obsessed with this, let alone other high-level Japanese army? Even, after being hit by two atomic bombs, the Japanese emperor recorded it well. The edict of surrender was issued, but some troops of the Japanese army wanted to snatch the edict of surrender, and they were not allowed to play it, so as to carry the war to the end.

The stubbornness of the Japanese can be called elm-headed and obsessed.

Under this premise, even if Japan's surrender to the United States is Japan's only way to survive, even if a few Japanese with real brains such as Ishihara Wanji want to do this and save Japan, most Japanese cannot understand and agreed.

Chiang Kai-shek said slowly: "Wei'er, what do you mean..."

"If we encircle Wei and save Zhao, first we will do our best to help Germany win the German-American War..." Jiang Weiguo thought.

"It won't work!" Bai Chongxi immediately shook his head, "If we first give full support to Germany to win the US war, then Germany can withdraw from the war with a complete victory, and then we will definitely give full support to us. This is beneficial to us, but The United States was also forced to withdraw from the German-American War. At that time, the United States failed to keep the United Kingdom and lost to Germany. The public opinion in the United States will definitely be uproarious. It will increase investment in the battlefield against Japan, and want to achieve bigger and better results as soon as possible. In this way, the competition between the Americans and us will become more intense. Moreover, if Germany and the United States do not fight, the United States can take Most of the national strength and military power are used on the battlefield against Japan, how can we sustain it?" Bai Chongxi paused, "Although the Germans are our good friends, the longer they fight against the Americans, the more powerful they become. beneficial to us.

While we do not want Germany to lose the war, we also do not want Germany to withdraw from the war.

If the Germans live in peace, we will be sad.

In addition, Germany is at war with the United States, and Germany and the United States are not at war but support us in fighting the United States. The two situations cannot be compared. The former will help us more objectively, after all, the former will allow Germany to do its best!"
