Chapter 2148 American Officers’ Corps!
Dragon Boat Festival talked with Philip for a long time, from the car to the hotel, and then to the dining table, Dragon Boat Festival talked with Philip.
In addition to talking about the deep friendship between the two, we talked more about how to deal with the matter of arriving in the Chinese military corps.
This officers' regiment is a young command group that the top leaders of the United States attach great importance to. Although their ranks are not high, ranging from colonel to captain, they can represent most of the top leaders of the United States.
In other words, these people are actually the eyes and ears of those senior US military officers. Only by trying to convince them on Dragon Boat Festival will the subsequent military aid be continuously supported. Otherwise, Philip could persuade the senior US military to provide weapons and equipment assistance to a brigade at most, and it is not certain that there will be no further assistance in the future.
Dragon Boat Festival is confident about this because the United States and Japan have conflicts of interest in East Asia.
The United States has been controlling oil in Southeast Asia and then sold it to the Japanese at a high price, which is very dissatisfied with.
But the Japanese were a little afraid of the US military bases on the Hawaiian Islands at this time, otherwise they would have started plundering oil in Southeast Asia long ago.
So, when dealing with the US military officer corps, Dragon Boat Festival is a way to deal with it, but Philip was a little worried. This is why he came to China early, so he asked the Dragon Boat Festival to talk in detail about what kind of people these young officers are and what their hobbies are. Finally, he gave Dragon Boat Festival a resume of the officer corps members.
Philip said this was the most detailed information he could get, because these people were very young and he didn't know many of them.
But Dragon Boat Festival was already very grateful. After accepting the information, he said goodbye to Philip, Brooke and Tom.
When Dragon Boat Festival left the International Hotel, it was already past six o'clock in the afternoon.
As for tomorrow's press conference, the Dragon Boat Festival will not go. Although Philip invited him to go, he did not agree to this because he was afraid of stealing Philip's limelight.
When I was at the airport today, Dragon Boat Festival was hiding in the car and did not show up at all. Until Philip walked over to Dragon Boat Festival, the reporters discovered that Dragon Boat Festival was coming. Otherwise, I might have been surrounded by Dragon Boat Festival before I saw Philip.
The Dragon Boat Festival is famous at this time, and even foreign media are reporting on his three-day lockdown to kill Prince Kitashirakawa.
So at this time, no matter what the Dragon Boat Festival does, it is the focus. I don’t know who broke the news about going to the Fifty-first Arsenal before the Dragon Boat Festival. Then there is a big title. When the Dragon Boat Festival inspects the Fifty-first Arsenal, China will vigorously develop its own military industry.
Some people also say that the submachine gun designed by Dragon Boat Festival is about to be mass-produced, and in three months, the Chinese army will be able to use domestic submachine guns, etc.
Anyway, some newspapers brag about it, so the Dragon Boat Festival is almost convinced.
But to be honest, it would be great if you can successfully test the troops in three months, let alone assemble the troops.
But Dragon Boat Festival will not release a press conference to clarify these things, otherwise the media will think that Dragon Boat Festival is eager to deny it because of the leak of the news. At that time, the journalists might still write something.
And when welcoming Philip this airport, I am afraid that the media will write that China and the United States want to unite strongly, and the Dragon Boat Festival is the hub of the governments of China and the United States.
So Dragon Boat Festival thinks that it is better for him to not appear at Philip's press conference. Otherwise, let's not talk about it for now, it is very likely that he will be misunderstood as what agreement has been reached between Dragon Boat Festival and Philip.
Of course, for China, the more evil the news media said, the more beneficial it is. But Dragon Boat Festival cannot ignore the feelings of the United States. Americans do not want to get involved in the war between China and Japan from beginning to end. They are just worried that the Japanese will threaten their interests when they become stronger, so they were persuaded by Dragon Boat Festival to provide military aid to China.
So if the news media reports heavily, it may backfire. And Japan will use this as an excuse to attack Americans.
After the Meiji Restoration, the Japanese militarism quickly rose and never took anyone seriously. And they had not completely broken up with Western countries such as the United States, because they had not yet taken action.
So if the United States pushes too tightly, the Japanese will bite them like mad dogs, not caring whether the other party is an American or someone from the West.
What the Dragon Boat Festival wants is arms, and as for the United States to start a war with Japan now, it is almost impossible.
The Americans' intelligence really amazed the whole world. They insisted on selling weapons neutrally during World War II. If the Japanese hadn't targeted the Americans' oil in Southeast Asia, the United States would have probably not intervened in this war. How cool would it be to sell weapons and equipment in the war?
Of course, the American dream was eventually shattered by the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, and they had to intervene in this war.
However, this is already a matter of the Dragon Boat Festival. What he wants to do now is military aid. If the weapons and equipment he gives free of charge, he would be a fool.
However, it is not so easy to get these military aid. Dragon Boat Festival must convince the US military officers who arrived in Shancheng three days later.
When you return to your apartment, you must prepare these materials with reasonable and well-founded nature.
Because Philip is right, if these people can make the decision on behalf of those senior officers, I'm afraid everyone is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
First take out a colonel officer in the Marines, first of all, from Dragon Boat Festival.
Philip told Dragon Boat Festival that he must pay attention to this person when he asked Dragon Boat Festival. Alex is a rising rookie in the Marine Corps, with very strong combat capabilities and good eloquence. He is a pro-Japanese member and has formed a deep friendship with a Japanese prince.
So Philip said that this Alex may be the biggest variable in this military aid.
There was another person, Philip, who also asked Dragon Boat Festival to pay attention. This person was called Haydn. He was a lieutenant colonel of the US Marine Corps. He was very optimistic about the Sino-Japanese war and said that Japan had a complete military-industrial system. On the contrary, China used the manufacturing of all countries, which was a bottomless pit that could not be filled.
He also once said that China has so many resources, but a small Japanese occupied a large area of territory, which is a human issue and is not worthy of sympathy.
Philip said that the other party's words were fierce and moved many senior officials, which would directly affect subsequent military aid, so that Dragon Boat Festival must find a way to shut them up.
Of course, killing directly is the most convenient thing. But if you really kill directly, there is no need to talk about the military aid behind you.
So Philip still suggested to shut up the other party in a debate so that he would have something to say in front of those high-level personnel and to win over the military aid of that division for Dragon Boat Festival.
