Chapter 624
Hu Yunfeng captured the mentality that the United States and Britain did not want the Greater China Empire to join the Axis powers, and repeatedly used tough measures to force the United States and Britain to accommodate him.
This time was no exception. After Hu Yunfeng ordered Uncle Lin to ignore Churchill, Britain and the United States began to worry.
On October 31, the fifth day of the Battle of Alahman was on. Except for the British army launched a ground attack on the first night and suffered heavy losses, Montgomery did not find the two thousand German artillery that could quickly conceal, and never dared to use ground troops to attack the German army on a large scale. He could only send fighter jets to bomb German targets every day.
However, the German army made sufficient air defense preparations, and the bombing of British fighter jets did not cause much damage to the German army.
The setback of the offensive caused the British morale to be sluggish, and what made Montgomery even more anxious and annoyed was that the rumors that the German army and the desert fox Rommel, which had been circulated among the British army, were once circulating among the British army, were once again spread among the British army.
At the same time, Germany's propaganda machine also increased its power to promote the German military's achievements in the Alamein to allies and Axis powers, which further increased Churchill's pressure in the UK and internationally.
Churchill was very depressed. Just now he received a telegram from US President Roosevelt. Roosevelt told him that the British army had appeared in the United States now, and Churchill was a fool. The United States should reduce its aid to the British army and fully support the Soviet Union and China's remarks against Germany and Japan. Roosevelt asked Churchill and Hu Yunfeng to reach an agreement as soon as possible so that the Greater China Empire's army would withdraw from the Battle of Alaman immediately and not affect the US-British North African landing operation plan.
The North African landing mentioned by Roosevelt was very important to Britain. Stalin once put pressure on the United States and Britain during the Battle of Moscow, demanding that the United States and Britain immediately open up a second battlefield in Europe, but Churchill was more interested in the Mediterranean region. Because North Africa, the Middle East and the Balkans were directly related to the interests and sphere of influence of Britain. Therefore, Churchill repeatedly did Roosevelt's work, and finally made Roosevelt agree to drive out the German, Italian and French Nancy governments in North Africa first. Therefore, Roosevelt proposed that the Battle of Alaman would directly affect the landing of the US military in North Africa, and Churchill could only meet Hu Yunfeng's requirements again.
"Captain, Uncle Lin is calling." Jeddah smiled and sent the telegram to Hu Yunfeng.
Looking at Jeddah's expression, Hu Yunfeng guessed that the United Kingdom should have agreed to his request. Sure enough, after reading the telegram, Uncle Lin told him that Churchill agreed to all his requests. If the British army drove the German and Italian troops out of North Africa with the help of the Greater China Empire, the Greater China would not only obtain Ethiopia, but also obtain half of the management of the Suez Canal from the British.
"Captain, will the British really give us the management of the Suez Canal?" Jeddah asked when he saw Hu Yunfeng not speaking at the telegram for a long time.
Hu Yunfeng looked up at Jeddah and asked, "What do you think?"
Jeddah shook his head and said he didn't understand. Hu Yunfeng smiled and said, "It should be distributed to us now, but Britain must have a plan. If World War II ends with the victory of the Allies, the United States and Britain will turn their fingers at us, and the British will soon take back what they distributed to us."
"What else can I talk to them? Let's beat him now." The young Tibetan guy from Jeddah had been in the special forces for a long time and learned a swear word. When he heard that Britain wanted to plot against the Greater China Empire, he immediately cursed indignantly.
Hu Yunfeng patted Jeddah on the shoulder and smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. The British won't take what we have. Then I have a way to deal with the British. I will also let the British spit out more."
"Yes." Jeddah nodded and left. In the hearts of Jeddah and the special forces, believing in the captain is to believe in himself. Since the captain said that the British's plan could not be understood, Jeddah was just talking too much, and he didn't understand international relations anyway.
Hu Yunfeng just looked at the telegram for a long time and was thinking about whether he and the Greater China Empire had the ability to make Germany win the Battle of Alamein. If Germany could really win the Battle of Alamein, the Greater China Empire could also get what Churchill promised him from Germany. Moreover, if Germany won the Battle of Alamein, it would undoubtedly delay the process of World War II, which would be very beneficial to the Greater China Empire for the time to fight against the United States and Britain.
However, the Greater China Empire's army could not directly help the German army fight against the British army, which made the United States and Britain completely declare war with the Greater China Empire. Even if they secretly helped the German army, the Greater China Empire's army now had only three Polish infantry divisions and an armored brigade, as well as a small number of combat aircraft, all handed over to the German army to use troops with absolute superiority against the British army, and its powerful supply capacity was a drop in the bucket. What's more, Hu Yunfeng was reluctant to hand over the only army in Egypt to the Germans.
Unless it is a way to make Hitler turn his attention to North Africa, but is that possible? Hu Yunfeng thought about it and felt that it was impossible. Now that the German army is entangled with the Soviet army and loses the last glimmer of hope to seize Stalingrad, Hitler will definitely not give up the battle for Stalingrad.
For the benefit of the Greater China Empire, I had to betray Rommel. Hu Yunfeng smiled sinisterly and went to find Rommel.
"Your Majesty, I am very happy to see you again." Rommel was very happy when Hu Yunfeng's arrival. He came up and saluted Hu Yunfeng and said, "I have reported to the Head of State. The Head of State has decided to entrust me to purchase the "Storm" 107 rocket launcher on a large scale from you and the Greater China Empire."
"Is that so? But the price of this kind of weapon is very expensive. How many doors are Germany going to purchase?" Hu Yunfeng's eyes lit up when he heard that there was a business.
"Order a thousand doors first." Rommel didn't know about commercial negotiations. He was only interested in the 107 rocket launcher. He was no longer as authentic as the price.
Seeing Rommel's price not asking, Hu Yunfeng's sinister smile flashed and said, "Our new weapon cost 20,000 US dollars per door, and one thousand is 20 million US dollars."
Rommel's treasure had been deceived by Hu Qufeng, and he was really shocked to hear the 20 million US dollars. However, Hu Yunfeng immediately said righteously: "How can the friendship between the Greater China Empire and Germany be measured by money? It's better to do this. I will give all the technical information of the 107 rocket launcher to Germany, and I only want Germany to have something."
Hu Yunfeng was so happy that he wanted to give the 107 rocket launcher technology to Germany. He said, "Your Majesty, on behalf of the Head of State, I would like to thank you for your friendship with the Greater China Empire for your friendship with Germany. What help do you need from Germany?"
Hu Yunfeng coughed twice and said, "I know Germany has developed a jet fighter called the me262. I hope Germany and the Greater China Empire share the jet fighter technology."
"Your Majesty is sorry, I don't know the fighter you mentioned, and my army is not equipped with such fighter." Rommel didn't know what a jet fighter was, but he knew the intelligence capabilities that Hu Yunfeng had. He estimated that this was a fighter that Germany was secretly developing and was attracted by Hu Yunfeng, but he could not agree to Hu Yunfeng.
Rommel is a German Army general and is understandable about the matter of the Air Force. Hu Yunfeng did not say anything after hearing this. He said: "General, do you know how much damage my 107 rocket launcher caused to the British army a few days ago?"
Speaking of the 107 rocket launcher, Rommel immediately became excited. He had no idea about the results of Hu Yunfeng's two temporary rocket launcher regiments so far. Rommel said: "Thank you again for your help to our army. According to my information, your two 107 rocket launcher regiments destroyed a division of the British army and destroyed nearly 300 British tanks. The British army did not dare to conduct ground attacks these days because of the existence of your two rocket launcher regiments."
Hu Yunfeng was also very happy to hear that he had achieved such great results. But he was not here to listen to the results. He wanted to make the business. The jet fighter was too attractive to him. He had not traded with Germany before because the industry, technology and talents in the Soviet port were not capable of producing and researching such fighter jets. Although the industry in the Greater China Empire is not strong now, it is also complete. In recent years, many people were sent to the United States and Germany to learn industrial technology. Now it is time to introduce this technology.
When Rommel knew the power of the two rocket launchers, Hitler would naturally know. Now that the German army is fighting hard with the Soviet army in Stalingrad, Hu Yunfeng thought that Hitler must be eager to get this weapon, otherwise he would not have been hasty to send Rommel, a general who does not understand business negotiations, to discuss business with him.
Hu Yunfeng pretended to be dissatisfied and murmured: "Why did you only achieve this little result? It must be because I was not familiar with the terrain here."
Rommel was surprised to have dissatisfied with Hu Yunfeng, thinking that this had not yet exerted the power of the 107 rocket launcher: "Your Majesty, the Head of State and I are very satisfied with such results. The Head of State hopes that you will deliver all the 107 rocket launchers of the Greater China Empire in Egypt first."
"Don't worry, you can ask your head of state first and tell him my proposal." Hu Yunfeng waved his hand and said, "There is something I want to tell you. Because your confidentiality is too poor, now Americans and British people know that I am fighting for you, so I and the Greater China Empire are under tremendous pressure."
"Your Majesty, we had an agreement before." Rommel said anxiously. He heard what Hu Yunfeng meant. He thought Hu Yunfeng was using this as a threat to get the technology of the jet fighter.
"Yes, the army you see is very good, aren't you implementing the agreement? Besides, the agreement between us is that my army does not participate in the war directly. Now we have not disclosed all the deployment of the British army to you, but also directly participated in the war. It has exceeded the scope of the agreement and I have not violated the agreement. I just want to tell you that my army will not participate in the battle against the British army directly." Hu Yunfeng made a look of your German army's poor confidentiality and said: "Of course, if you help me convince your head of state, all the 107 rocket launchers in our army will be handed over to you, and half of the "Iron Fist" anti-tank rocket Jane and the tanks I brought for you."
