Chapter 1042 Nightmare (Part 2)

"The commander-in-chief and commander of the Nanyang Military Sub-district Zhan Mao have sent eight telegrams. When will the inquiry department allow them to start a full war against the Japanese army?!"

Su Zongzhe, Chief of the General Staff of the National Defense Forces, smiled bitterly and handed it to Tu Menghu with a telegram, and the latter laughed helplessly. They can understand the anxiety of the Nanyang Military Sub-district.

After all, they had been squatting in the mountains and forests for a day or two, and they had been there for a year or two. If it weren't for the good military discipline and continuation of winning news, or if some of them had chosen to escape long ago.

The General Staff of the National Defense Forces issued several orders for full-scale operations, but they were eventually withdrawn due to changes in the battlefield. There were only so many people in the Nanyang Military Sub-district. If the losses were too great, they would not be able to bear the subsequent attacks of the Japanese army.

"Now is the best time and the most dangerous time." Tu Menghu sighed: "Although the Japanese are now attracted by us, a large number of troops on the front line of Weijiang, it is precisely because of this that the Japanese Navy's surveillance of various parts of the Southeast Asian region is gradually strengthening."

"The Japanese Navy is just called a navy. In fact, they have their own huge land warfare system. They also have weapons including heavy artillery and tanks. If the Nanyang Military Sub-district launches an attack at this time, it will only attract their attention. The chances of victory are not high...."

Su Zongzhe also understood the explanation of slaughtering the tiger. But the Nanyang Military Sub-district may not understand it. Although they will implement the orders firmly, they will definitely be open to the discussion.

Su Zongzhe talked about this matter to Tu Menghu, and Tu Menghu was silent. He knew that officers at all levels in the Nanyang Military Sub-district were eager to make contributions, after all, they were all elite soldiers selected by each department.

Now their comrades are fighting in full swing in Annan, Myitkyina and other places, annihilated or expelled most of the troops of the Liang Japanese army. However, they are doing nothing in the jungle, which is something that no proud soldier can accept.

"It's rainy season now, and I'll allow them to launch an attack after the rainy season!" Tu Menghu calculated that the negotiations with the Axis powers and allies were only a few months at most.

After the negotiations are completed, the Southeast Asian battlefield can be fully launched. The first thing that attacks is definitely Annan’s National Defense Forces, which will undoubtedly attract all the Japanese firepower to Annan.

Then there was the outbreak of Nanyang and other places. At that time, the Japanese army would not be able to take care of Nanyang and other places, and by then the navy would have formed a certain combat power, and it was time to pull it out for inspection.

"At that time, the naval combat troops will assist them in fighting together and transport supplies to them at the same time." Tu Menghu pondered for a while and said: "Let them continue to wait, I will not allow them to attack the Japanese now."

As he said that, Tu Menghu smiled and said, "Besides, they are not the ones who took the lead..."

It was indeed not them, but the major families in Southeast Asia. These fence-bearers had already discovered that the Japanese army was unreliable, so they were preparing to find a new backer.

If they follow their ideas, they should be in contact with European and American countries such as the United States or the United Kingdom. But now some people around are convinced to take advantage of the chaos and take control of the entire country into their own hands.

This proposal made them excited. Some families have begun to contact other allies to seize power while the Japanese army retreated from the Nanyang area in large numbers.

They even arranged the next step for them. After they seized power, they declared neutrality in the war. Then they sold resources and exchanged money for the waterway.

At the worst, their family can make a fortune in the war. Short-sighted monkeys will involuntarily drool when they think of the yellow gold.

The reason why they have not taken action now is not because they have far-sightedly seen the Japanese Navy's surveillance on them, but because their internal interests have not yet been divided.

This is a profitable business, and everyone wants to get a piece of the pie. Some people even clamor for the United States to rise from a neutral position in the war. Then they can also rise in this war and eventually become a world power.

But what they didn't know was that Wang Yajiao, who planned all this, kept watching the monkeys jumping up and down behind their backs with a sneer. The happier they were, the more excited Wang Yajiao was.

As long as they go on this road, the National Defense Forces will find enough reasons to root them out. By then, the entire Nanyang area will be purified.

Such Nanyang is the Nanyang that truly belongs to the coalition government. The existence of these families can only be a cancer. The best way to remove it is to eliminate it.

"Heronor Hull, what do you think the entire Northeast Asia proposed by the coalition government must belong to the sphere of influence of the coalition government after the war and do not want us to enter, what do you think about this?"

Churchill asked Hull at tea time a little unhappy. This was also Stalin's question, and Stalin urgently needed to know the United States' attitude towards this.

If the Americans allowed China to occupy Northeast Asia, then there was no doubt that the Soviet Union would find it difficult to challenge China's position in Asia after the war. Most of the Asian regions in which the Soviet Union was located were large wastelands like Siberia.

Only in Northeast Asia will there be a large number of countries. If these small countries become surrounded by coalition governments, then the Soviet Union's status in Asia can be imagined.

At the same time, Europe will definitely not accept the entry of the Soviet Union. At that time, the Soviet Union will be embarrassed. It will be a big stop to the development of the Soviet Union. This will not be what Stalin wants.

"Prime Minister Churchill, President Roosevelt has explained this at the cabinet meeting." Hull smiled slowly and said: "What we need to see is that whether we want the coalition government to control Northeast Asia or not."

"These regions are almost related to the lifeline of the coalition government. They cannot give up. I believe they have done nothing behind their back in Northeast Asia. We know what is going on in North Korea's current "Chengen Gate". But they have now explicitly demonstrated this condition."

Churchill said nothing, but he also knew that the coalition government had gradually controlled the situation from Southeast Asia to Northeast Asia. After the war, these local coalition governments would definitely support the pro-China government.

But if this is the case, then even the British Empire, not to mention other European countries, American countries cannot enter this area. After tying Southeast Asia and Northeast Asia, the entire Asia is basically the coalition government is playing on its own.

This is a very fatal thing... Stalin smiled bitterly in his heart, but his face was not brought out. For some reason, Stalin always felt that Hull looked at him intentionally or unintentionally while saying these words.

In fact, when Roosevelt made this decision, there was another sentence like this.

"We are now forced to cooperate with the Soviet Union because this war has threatened our roots. In fact, whether we are willing to admit the Soviet Union or not, it is also a huge threat to us. We need to curb this threat. So we must start from now on..."

"In my opinion, China is undoubtedly our natural ally. The greedy red giant bear has never stopped asking for it, and they are more vigilant about the Soviet Union than us."

"So, if the Soviet Union has no time to take care of the Bering Strait and Europe, such a powerful and threatening China is what we need." Roosevelt said at the meeting.

"Support China and support a powerful, hostile China with the Soviet Union. This will make the Soviet Union restless and have no time to take care of other things." As he said, Roosevelt smiled at the meeting: "As for the benefits we have paid, we can wait until China and the Soviet Union go to war or both sides are exhausted and then get it back step by step..."

At this point, the United States has decided to support China in this war. Supporting China will curb the Soviet Union to a certain extent. Let them fight and prevent them from threatening the interests of the United States.

This is the decision made at the cabinet meeting.

Unfortunately, Roosevelt did not expect that some people would convey the resolution of the meeting to the coalition government.

It is definitely impossible to say that it is too specific, but the policy of "curbing Su Fuzhong" is still known by the coalition government. After careful consideration, Yan Zhengqing and others roughly understood the decision made by the United States.

"Northeast Asia is connected to the Pacific Ocean. If it is not appropriate to just be owned by their family, is that right?" Stalin frowned and said, "This is related to the security of the United States in the Pacific Ocean. Does the US Congress not care about it at all?"

Hull smiled. It is undoubtedly a great risk to cross the Pacific to attack the United States. Unless you want to take a gamble like Japan, there is no way to achieve it. And Japan has already made the United States ahead. Then the United States will definitely pay attention to the security in the Pacific in the future.

Stalin would mention this entirely because if the coalition government monopolizes Northeast Asia, the first threat that undoubtedly would be the Soviet Union.

The Defense Force Navy, which has a base supply point, can completely block all Soviet ports to the Pacific Ocean. And the current situation is that the Defense Force Navy has made great progress, but the Soviet Union is still standing still.

Under such circumstances, it was natural for Stalin to put forward such a view.

"Congress believes that it is appropriate for us to support our allies in this situation." Hull smiled and said, "And even if they control Northeast Asia, they will not be able to threaten the United States for a while. We can still have an Atlantic export."

"And we have excess trade interference with the coalition government, I believe there will be no problem..."

There will be no ghost! Stalin thought angrily, but Hull had already said that, what else could he say?! He could only say goodbye with a dark face.

After he left, Churchill said worriedly: "His Excellency Hull, although I know you are trying to curb the Soviet Union, will we pay too much?! With China in Northeast Asia, you may not consider going to Europe or the United States to seize our interests......"

"Prime Minister Churchill, I thought of this problem before I came. But our President Roosevelt told me a story about China called 'Two peaches kill three warriors, ······"

As he said that, Hull smiled and told Churchill the story of "two peaches and three soldiers" that Roosevelt told him. Then he said: "Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia are those two peaches. China and the Soviet Union are naturally warriors. But they will eventually lose themselves because of fighting for these peaches..."

Churchill then smiled and didn't ask again. In fact, Hull did not finish his words. Roosevelt's original words at that time were: Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia were two big peaches, while China, the Soviet Union and Europe were the three scholars.

The United States only needs to provoke it, and there will inevitably be people who can't help but try to grab the peaches first. Let them grab it. After the grab, everyone is weak and the United States will pick the ripe peaches...

What Roosevelt used this time was to open up the plot. What he adopted was that the coalition government must control the urgency of these two places for its own territory and surrounding security.

The same is true for the Soviet Union. Although Southeast Asia poses little threat to the Soviet Union, Northeast Asia will affect the Soviet Union's Pacific Ocean estuary. If it is in the hands of others, the Soviet Union will be unable to sleep or eat.

"There are peaches, but the scholars may not be..." Tu Menghu put the telegram sent by the United States on the table and said with a smile, but he didn't know if the person who was going to pick peaches in the end would regret it when he found that there were only two scholars and one scholar dared not fight..."

Yan Zhengqing, who was slaughtering the tiger, smiled but said nothing. Roosevelt's method had already shown the superb level of a politician. Unfortunately, he seemed to have ignored that this allusion came from China.

Moreover, China is not the stupid warrior who knows the charge. In terms of politics, China has a history of thousands of years. Since the Warring States Period, various obstacles have emerged one after another. There are countless political ideas and strategies for governing the country.

Therefore, what politicians such as Yan Zhengqing and others who stood on the shoulders of their predecessors understand better than European and American politicians is that it is not a long-term plan to face it.

Harmony, harmony but different. Only by practicing the kingly way can you last for a long time. Of course, it does not mean that Yan Zhengqing and others will not be domineering. The cruelty they will show when they touch the bottom line is absolutely terrifying.

For example, the prisoners of war in Japan and Southeast Asia who are now building roads, I believe they will have a deep understanding of this.

"Political skills are inherently shameful, and those who do not know their shame but use them are foolish. Those who know their shame but use them are villains, and those who know their shame but do not use them are gentlemen. But gentlemen cannot do political work." Tu Menghu suddenly muttered what Yan Zhengqing once said to him.

As he said that, he laughed himself: "So, the teacher, we and Mr. Lin are all villains~ hahaha..."

"A true gentleman cannot enter politics, but I am just a hypocrite. What's wrong with being a hypocrite for the country?!" Yan Zhengqing was still smiling, with bitterness and relief in his smile.

In the Soviet Union, Trotsky continued to have nightmares since the Soviet army's great defeat.

Often he would wake up in his dreams. After waking up, he would smile bitterly by the bed.

Even if he was unwilling to admit it, he knew it himself and began to fear. Although the Soviets had experienced wars, the war at that time was completely different from the current situation.

The German army and their powerful torrent of steel kept tearing the Soviet defense line and approaching Moscow step by step. Tukhachevsky, the youngest Soviet marshal, sent consecutive emergency telegrams.

The losses on the positions were shocking, and the entire Soviet Union had to accept the tragic fact: the Soviet Red Army could not stop the German iron hooves from raging on the Soviet land.

The only news from Tukhachevsky was: defeat, great defeat, defeat! The frontline was extremely short of weapons and equipment and ammunition, and due to the unexpected defeat, a large amount of materials were seized by the German army.

At the same time, the Soviet army fighting sometimes even faces the dilemma of having less than a base of ammunition in their hands. As long as the Soviet fighter jets appear in the sky, the German fighter jets rushed towards them like sharks that smelled blood.

Since the war started, the Soviet army has lost more than 70% of its fighter jets. Due to insufficient actual combat, the Soviet army's fighter jets could hardly compete with the German army.

Many times when both sides fought, the Soviet army was passively beaten.

"Dongdongdongdongdong······" An urgent knock on the door sounded, and Trotsky put on his clothes and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Comrade Trotsky, Comrade Kalinin has returned from the front line. He asked to see you immediately, and now he is waiting for you in the Kremlin conference room..."

"Okay, prepare the car right away. Let's go now." Trotsky said, put on his clothes and stood up and opened the door. The secretary and the driver had already been waiting outside the door and then led Trotsky to the car outside the door.

When Trotsky met Kalinin, the smell of gunpowder on the battlefield had not yet dissipated. The members of the Supreme Soviet Committee present were smoking their cigarettes without saying a word.

"There are all people here. Comrade Kalinin, you can talk about the situation on the front line first..." Trotsky glanced at everyone and said, "How far has the situation reached?!"

"Almost collapsed..." Kalinin said with a wry smile: "The German attack was too sudden, and we were completely unprepared. The most serious problem now is that we have no way to deal with the German tanks."

"The German army should have a terrifying bomb, which is highly accurate and can destroy underground fortifications worth three meters, which poses a great threat to us..."

Kalinin opened his notebook and reported to the members little by little about the current situation on the battlefield. Every time he told him a situation, the members of the Supreme Soviet Committee present looked a little ugly.

"Finally, Comrade Tukhachevsky suggested that we prepare as soon as possible. If the Germans continue to attack, then there is no doubt that they will approach Moscow..."

After Kalinin finished his last sentence, he closed his notebook without saying a word. Trotsky's heart sank directly from his chest to the bottom. Tukhachevsky was the youngest and recognized as the strongest marshal in the Soviet Union.
