For Americans, although the current treaty is also very harsh, it is at least much stronger than the earliest treaty, so although it was a little reluctant in the end, the Americans still signed it.

After all, even if the Americans' industrial strength is strong, it will take one or two years to restore to the pre-war level. One or two years is enough for the Japanese to gain a firm foothold in Southeast Asia and Australia. You should know that unlike China in history, the indigenous people in Southeast Asia have no spirit of resistance. As for Australia, the huge Australia has only a population of 7 million, and after the outbreak of the war, there are only five or six million left, and it is impossible to provide any interference to Japan.

The United States' industrial strength is indeed stronger than Japan. At least the current US steel production has reached 80 million tons, while Japan's current steel production is even less than 8 million.

But if the Japanese are allowed to gain a firm foothold in Australia, although Japan cannot surpass the United States in a short period of time, the situation will become completely different. After all, Australia's most famous is its high-quality iron ore reserves...

Moreover, due to China's demand for Australian iron ore in the early years, these iron ore were developed early. When the Japanese landed in Australia, they only needed to recruit all the workers to start construction...

So the United States must defeat Japan before it stands firmly. Otherwise, if it wants to defeat Japan, the price the United States needs to pay is definitely something they cannot bear...

As for the atomic bomb? The manufacturing plan of the atomic bomb in the United States is very confidential. Even the Military Intelligence Agency only got the name [Manhattan Project], but this name is enough. After all, for Yan Guang, a later generation, the name [Manhattan Project] is really well-known.

In December 1941, after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, in early 1942, American scientists had rough estimates of the theoretical direction, budget and time of manufacturing atomic bombs. In terms of heavy nuclear elements separation, the Lawrence team from the University of California, Berkeley studied electromagnetic separation, the Eger and Jesse Wakefield Liang's research team from Columbia University studied gas diffusion, and Philip Aberson from the Carnegie Institute in Washington studied thermal diffusion.

In terms of nuclear reactor technology, Harold Yuri of Columbia University studied heavy water, while Arthur Canton guided his scientists to study reactors using plutonium and graphite as neutron slowing agents at the metallurgical laboratory built by Columbia University, the University of Chicago, and Princeton University. However, this project is too large and far exceeds the capabilities of American scientific research institutions. Only by turning it to military research and giving the highest priority can it be possible to complete atomic bomb manufacturing before the end of the war.

On March 9, 1942, Bush and Conant submitted a planned budget of $90 million to the top U.S. decision-making team ($54 million for the construction of experimental facilities in the U.S. Army of Engineers, $31 million for the research conducted by OSD. $5 million for the fiscal year 1943 emergency funding), which was submitted to Ross Bar and approved for implementation immediately.

However, although the [Manhattan Plan] has been established, to be honest, the power of the atomic bomb is a bit unpredictable, both the American generals and Roosevelt himself. After all, for this era, the power of the atomic bomb is indeed somewhat beyond people's imagination.

And in case of no need, weapons like the atomic bomb cannot be used in large-scale tombs.

After all, it’s fine to throw a few pills when the war is about to end. If you abuse it freely, the pressure on all aspects will be absolutely huge.

In addition, some interesting things have actually happened during the process of developing the atomic bomb in the United States.

Long before the outbreak of the war, Britain and the United States had exchanged information on nuclear energy, but did not cooperate. In 1941, Bush and Conan invited Britain to join to strengthen the power of the project. But Britain refused decisively because they were unwilling to share their leading technology and were unwilling to help the United States develop their nuclear weapons. However, because Britain did not have as sufficient manpower and material resources as the United States, it was not willing to fall behind the United States. On July 30, 1942, Churchill and Roosevelt made an informal and unwritten agreement on atomic cooperation.

However, this equal partnership did not last long. In August 1942, Britain demanded substantial control of the project without paying any funds, but the United States refused. In 1943, the relationship between Britain and the United States was reversed. Britain's negotiation status deteriorated, and American scientists decided not to accept any foreign help. The United States' nuclear policy committee also made nuclear weapons in wartime.

In March 943, Conant risked exposing the secrets of weapon design to invite James Chadwick and several other British scientists to Los Angeles to participate in atomic bomb design because the project was not favored by technicians like them. In August 1943, Churchill and Ross signed a Quebec agreement, which restored the issue of mutual cooperation between scientists on scientific research issues. In 1943, the United States had invested more than $1 billion in this project, while the United Kingdom invested only 500,000 pounds.

£500,000…

I can only say that during World War II, 500,000 pounds were only enough to buy a destroyer...

———————————————————

Although it was difficult for both sides to talk about the treaty, especially when talking about the positioning of Hawaii, Guam and the Philippines, after all, the first two are from the United States, and the latter one is also a colony of the United States. However, since it is no longer from the United States, then...

However, when talking about British colonies, the two countries have a very common topic.

A very important point is that both countries believe that under the premise of "national self-determination", colonies such as India and Myanmar emerged from the colonial state.

In this regard, the United States supports China. After all, there are too many British colonies, and it should be reduced a little. But at the same time, while the United States supports this matter, it also signed a treaty with China, which guarantees that after the war, China will not turn India and other regions into Chinese territory like Iran, Iraq and other places.

As for the point of operating East Asia into a sphere of influence, the United States doesn’t care much about it. You should know that South America has always been the back garden of the United States, whether in later generations or now...

This is another reason why the United States will agree. Yan Guang nodded quite neatly and agreed to the American demands.

The reason is very simple. Unlike Iraq, Iran, Central Asia and other regions, India and the countries on the Indochina Peninsula are all with large populations, but countries like Myanmar and the Philippines have more than twice that of Australia, and Vietnam has more than three or four times that of it.

Not to mention India, you should know that India had a population of more than 300 million at this time.

Although China now has more than 800 million people, it is still impossible to assimilate more than 400 million other races, even selective assimilation...

Of course, when discussing India, China and the United States actually hid their ties with Britain. The reason is very simple. India is really too important for Britain. Although the environment in Britain is very difficult now, it is impossible to let them give up India like this, so this matter can only be done without Britain.

But in fact, China and the United States understand very well that the UK’s opinions are not important.

It would be useless even if the British had other ideas, after all, the British no longer had much strength.

———————————————————

There are mainly three parties in this negotiation. One side is an allied country led by Britain and the United States, and the other side is the Soviet Union.

The allies are easier to solve, mainly solving the largest United States, and the matter is actually half solved. As for the UK, China's requirements are not high on the surface, and it is just asking Britain to withdraw from East Asia. Britain was mentally prepared for this, so Churchill nodded in agreement.

The British's conditions are actually very simple, and there is no problem with withdrawing from East Asia. After all, after China's rise, it is impossible not to talk about East Asia's business becoming its circle of power. The British have long known this.

The most important thing is that if you want to win over China, you can only use East Asia as your bargaining chip.

Fortunately, the British colonies in East Asia have almost been occupied by Japan, so although I feel sorry for Singapore that can block the important land of the Strait of Malacca, the United Kingdom still nodded.

Because for the British, as long as they can lose weight in India, they will be the biggest victory for them...

You should know that the Japanese and Thai troops are constantly moving deep into the hinterland of India, but now Britain cannot draw any force to help India. Of course, the British do not know that Thailand has betrayed China and turned to the Axis. So in the eyes of the British, as a Chinese pawn, Thailand will definitely fight back against the Japanese army as long as it receives the order from China. By that time...

India's predicament will naturally be resolved.

Unfortunately, because the interests are not satisfied, the Thais have already turned to the Axis powers.

Although there are many pro-China and Chinese relationships in the Thai political circle, the upper class of the Thai government is still unable to effectively dominate Thailand, it is unlikely that the Thai troops will fight against the Japanese army...

The United States is more troublesome, but Britain has some troubles but it has also solved it, and the best solution is actually the Soviet Union.

Because the Soviet Union is somewhat unable to hold on anymore, especially Moscow, the capital. Although it has been persisting with the continuous blood transfusion of the National Socialist Government, at this time at least half of Moscow's urban areas have fallen into the hands of the Germans. If it weren't for the continuous stream of reinforcements coming from Siberia behind, and the National Socialist Government has provided equipment for them...

I'm afraid Moscow has long been in the hands of the Germans.

As for Stalin, the Russian boss, the best situation is to move to the other side of the Ural Mountains, but by that time, it is difficult to say whether Stalin, the boss, can still sit firmly in his current position.

After all, Moscow was thrown away in his hands, and most importantly, it was precisely because of Stalin's conceit and the great purge he led that Russia suffered a severe blow in this war...

Although Stalin's military literacy may not be very good, and he may even be inferior to Hitler, he looked at the great purge he led and a series of historical matters, at least it can be seen that Stalin was still very sensitive to political affairs. It was precisely because of this that while Moscow continued to dominate the battle, he seemed to have noticed what the people around him thought of him.

It is precisely because of this that he needs more support from China.

Of course, the most important thing is that compared with the conditions for Britain and the United States, China's conditions are not harsh.

That is, Russia did not cede the land, nor did it allow Russia to sign any humiliating treaties. It just allowed the Russians to raise the sales price of weapons several times, and by the way recognized the Caucasus and Southern Russia. Also, Central Asia, Outer Mongolia and parts of the Outer Khingan Mountains are Chinese territory...

Although the top leaders of China and the Russian government have always been ambiguous in recent years, the Russian government has never forgotten to ask for these areas. It is precisely because of this relationship that the border conflict between the two countries has always been the most common in the world...

Therefore, ∠guang really wants to take this opportunity to completely solve the border problem.

As for Siberia? Let's keep it for Russia...

Although Siberia seemed to be very good, Yan Guang had his own thoughts in his heart, and he also fell in love with another place.

"Australia…"

That's right, it's Australia. Or Yan Guang has always coveted the Australian place.

Siberia is indeed a good place, but there is a big problem. First of all, it is unquestionable that Siberia is not suitable for human settlements. Otherwise, Siberia would not have been inhabited for so many years.

You should know that even in later generations, Siberia is not the most important thing for Russia to pay attention to. Even the Russian Pacific Fleet is only the second-ranked fleet.

Of course. Siberia has vast territory and rich resources...

Moreover, if you occupy Siberia, you can shorten the border between China and Russia to a part of the Ural Mountains and Southern Russia, which is also very effective in reducing China's border pressure.

But following Siberia is equivalent to taking Alaska on the other side of the Bering Strait...

Well, most importantly, Yan Guang needed to help him share the pressure after the war, from the West, or from NATO.

After all, although China is strong enough, unlike the United States with a large group of NATO harems, there are only a few countries around China such as Japan, South Korea, and Thailand, and almost all the rest are some unseasonable guys.

It is difficult to say what will be left after the war is over, so Yan Guang needs some time and some time to help East Asian countries restore their strength.

During this period, Russia needs to continue to help him attract firepower.

After all, during the period when the younger brothers around him recovered their strength, Yan Guang also needs to consolidate his rule over Australia, and of course, New Zealand...

In Australia, there is no need to mention Guangrong's land and abundant resources. The most important thing is that Australia has a sparse population, with only seven million before the war, and only five or six million after the outbreak of the war, and this number is still decreasing...

so…

This is the best opportunity!!!

Before the war broke out, why did Yan Guang allow Japan to attack Australia, and why did he allow Japan to "pass French Indochina to China after occupying Australia"...

It's because of Australia...

Yan Guang originally wanted to join the Allies, so Yan Guang had no reason or excuse to occupy Australia, a member of the Commonwealth and Allies.

But Japan is different...

Japan is a member of the Axis powers, and it is natural for Japan to occupy Australia. Similarly, after Japan occupied Australia, it was natural for China to defeat Japan and occupy Australia.

The most important thing is that in a short period of time, that is, in one or two years, because of the "Pearl Harbor", Americans cannot compete with the Japanese in the Pacific. In other words, during this period, Yan Guang had a lot of time to deal with Australian affairs, and no one could compete with him at all.

Even if someone finally had an objection to Yan Guang's occupation of Australia, he did not have the strength to raise it...

So, Yan Guang approved...

———————————————————

The moment Yan Guang signed his name on the agreement, it means that China has officially participated in the war.

Of course, these are nothing. The most important thing is that China did not join any of the allies or the Soviet Union, but instead established a separate force.

Britain, the United States and Russia have no objection to this. After all, China has the ability to do so. The most important thing is that China also has its own small circle, namely small countries such as Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos.

After Japan captured Australia, the Japanese government had handed over Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and other countries to China as promised. Japan knew very well that even if he wanted to cheat, it would be useless. After all, these places bordered China's land. As long as they wanted, China could take it back at any time and use force!!!

Now, it is surrounded by these little brothers that China has established the [Neutral Alliance Organization], referred to as [China Alliance] for short. Of course, if the interpretation is incorrect, the Chinese people don’t mind that you interpret it as [China Alliance] just...
