In the early World War I that swept across Europe, the United States also stayed on the sidelines as a neutral country in the early days.The unique geographical advantages give them the advantage of watching the fire from the other side, and they can even benefit a lot from every world war.

He Zhengdao, who has paid attention to the reasons for the rise of the United States, knows very well that as a victorious country in World War I.At the end of World War I, the United States suddenly declared its participation in the war.This approach also gave them a share of the benefits in World War I.

With the United States dominating North America alone, coupled with the rapid improvement of the domestic economy.Many American businessmen also gradually feel that their development has reached a bottleneck, and they must start exporting capital if they want to continue to develop.

North America alone seems to be unable to satisfy their capital export.In this case, knowing that Germany has resumed the war in Europe will undoubtedly make many American businessmen happy.

The U.S. government, which has tasted the sweetness once, is very clear that their rise time is too short. Compared with the overseas colonies of old powers such as Britain and France, the colonies owned by the United States are more limited to North America.

In Asia, not far away from them, many rich colonies were acquired by established powers such as Britain and France.Even in China, the benefits that the United States can enjoy are far lower than those of Britain and France.

Now that China is caught in a national war, countries such as Britain, France and Germany are also at war.The U.S. government feels that this is a godsend opportunity, the best time for them to enter Asia to share colonial interests.

It's just that the U.S. government is very clear that today's Japan regards Asia as its back garden.If the US government intervenes, it will inevitably conflict with the Ribo government.So how to avoid conflicts?

While doing business with Japan, the United States also wants to curb Japan's continued strength.Even, they also hope to expand their influence in Asia while Britain, France and Germany are at war.

In He Zhengdao's view, this kind of behavior is undoubtedly trying to be a fool on the fence.Compared to other people who don't understand the plans of the United States, He Zhengdao is very clear that in the future World War II, the United States' aid to China will come more from their national needs.

To be honest, it was not China that received the most aid from the United States in World War II, but Britain and the Soviet Union.Although the early United States did not participate in the war, it continued to provide funds and weapons to the Allies.

Although there is a lot of assistance to China, it is limited to preventing the national government from being defeated.Such assistance, in He Zhengdao's view, is somewhat inconsistent with China's contribution in World War II.

What He Zhengdao said to the U.S. military delegation was more of what He Zhengdao wanted to convey to the United States, that is, don't treat China as a fool.If you want Huaxia to contain the Japanese army, you must show sincerity.

As Major General Sam sent the information of the first meeting back to China, Roosevelt looked at the information on the telegram and said with some surprise: "Has all this information been confirmed?"

Facing Roosevelt's inquiry, the head of US military intelligence also nodded and said: "Basically true! According to the information fed back by our European intelligence station, the Soviet Union did plan to attack Poland and even expand their influence in Europe.

As for the contract they signed with Germany, we haven't found out the specific content yet.However, judging from the current military cooperation between the two countries, it is not denied that the information provided by Huaxia may be true. "

'Then do you think the Soviet Union will form an alliance with Japan? '

For Roosevelt, he knew very well that once the Soviet Union, Germany, and Japan were truly united, the current allies would be in trouble.He also knows how great the power of these three countries joining forces is.

The US military general who participated in the meeting shook his head and said: "Mr. President, I think the possibility of a Soviet-Japanese alliance is not very high. According to the information we have obtained before, the Japanese have always hoped to expand their interests in the Far East.

Even, Riba hopes to infiltrate their influence into Europe through the Northward Policy.Just judging from the current sudden truce between the Soviet Union and Japan, I am afraid that Japan and the Soviet Union both know that now is not the best time for their two countries to fight.

The Soviet Union needed to take care of the European battlefield, but Japan hoped to speed up their war to unify Asia.In this case, peace talks between the two countries are undoubtedly the best choice.Therefore, this General He's analysis is still very powerful. "

Although the United States has declared neutrality, they are actually very concerned about the European battlefield and the Asian battlefield.At this moment, their business cooperation with Ribo also let them know some of Ribo's plans and strategies.

Facing the answer from the US general staff, Roosevelt said with some headaches: "Then, do you think that the Huaxia general's speculation may become a reality? Next, will they be able to withstand the Japanese counterattack?"

In response to such inquiries, a US military general quickly said: "From the current situation, in the war between China and Japan, the Japanese army has the upper hand. Our ally in Chongqing is now more in a stage of struggling. .

On the other hand, the Huaxia army in Yan'an now, they have recovered some lost ground one after another, and the speed of army expansion is also very fast.From the telegram sent back by the delegation, it can also be seen that this force is not simple.

At least in terms of fighting will and weapons and equipment, it is no worse than the army in Chongqing.However, it may still be a little difficult to cope with the counterattack of the Kwantung Army, the strongest Japanese army in China.Even if you can hold it, you will suffer heavy losses. "

When the general made such an analysis, the general in charge of intelligence collection said again: "Mr. President, there is a situation that I think needs to be mentioned. That is, according to our analysis, the Japanese army may launch in Southeast Asia next." Military action.

At the beginning of the year, their navy had sent an army to Hainan, China.In addition to building a large number of logistics bases there, a large number of troops have also been deployed.And recently, their forward troops have launched reconnaissance in the Indochina Peninsula! "

Upon hearing this, Roosevelt quickly said, "It should be a French colony, right?"

'Yes!According to our judgment, Japan's next strategic focus may shift to encroaching on Southeast Asian countries.Under the current circumstances, Britain and France have no time to take care of their colonies in Asia.

With the naval power possessed by Ribo, they can send a large number of army elites to these colonies.Through this occupation, expand their colonial army, and at the same time plunder the funds and resources needed to support their current China strategy. '

Everyone knows that Ribo is a country with relatively scarce resources.It is precisely because of the poor resources that Riba hopes to strengthen itself by invading other countries.China, on the other hand, is undoubtedly a well-known resource power.

It's just that China's will to resist the war seems to be somewhat beyond the expectations of the Japanese army.Even now half of China is almost reduced to a colony of Ribo.But everyone knows that Ribo is also riding a tiger right now.

The puppet government that is currently supported in Nanjing, not to mention that the international community will not recognize it, even many people in China are against it.Trying to colonize China by copying the puppet Manchukuo now seems completely unfeasible.

In this case, if the Japanese want to support the needs of the war, they can only increase the plunder of neighboring countries.They were able to obtain war loans from Britain and France earlier, but now it must be impossible.

As for the United States, it will naturally not provide war loans to Japan.Then, Ribo, who has been unable to stop the war, can only use other methods to plunder wealth and resources from other aggressive lands to support their aggressive war in China.

Although Riba has not yet done anything to those countries in Southeast Asia, according to the information obtained by the US intelligence personnel in Asia, some of Riba's reconnaissance troops have entered these Southeast Asian countries to inquire and collect intelligence.

This also means that Ribo plans to attack these countries!Once you do it, you will realize that these British and French colonies are likely to become Japanese colonies.The colonial interests there will be embezzled by the sun.

Even after saying this, the intelligence chief said: "If the Japanese army marches into Southeast Asia, the only remaining strategic supply channel in China may be interrupted. This will also be fatal to the Chinese army! "

Burma Highway!

As the president, Roosevelt naturally knew that Japan had already blocked all the sea supply channels in China.The only remaining supply routes to the outside world seem to be limited to the Burma Road and the land route bordering the Soviet Union.

After such an analysis, Roosevelt also said with a serious expression: "Cut off the supply line for the Chongqing government to obtain military aid from Southeast Asia, and reached a series of cooperation with the Soviet Union to block Yan'an.

If these two plans can make Ribo succeed, then the situation of the Huaxia War of Resistance will definitely undergo a major change.If Huaxia is really completely occupied by Japan, then our interests in Asia will be severely damaged in the future! "

Roosevelt's remarks really surprised the senior officials of the US government who participated in the meeting.If He Zhengdao could hear their judgment and analysis at this moment, he would probably be surprised.

After all, in the near future, China will form an expeditionary force to fight in Burma in order to maintain this international supply line.As for the cooperation between the Soviet Union and Japan mentioned by Roosevelt, He Zhengdao didn't think there was anything to worry about.

As far as the Soviet Union is concerned, it is more out of its own interests to make peace with Japan.Blocking the Soviet-Chinese border is more of a daily profit, and it is of no benefit to the Soviet Union.

Even for the Soviet Union at this moment, they also hope that China can contain the development of the Japanese army.Under such circumstances, how could the Soviet Union make such short-sighted behavior?

In any case, the assumptions and speculations He Zhengdao and the U.S. delegation made did make the U.S. government realize that the situation in China's War of Resistance would take a turn for the worse.If they don't give strong support, I'm afraid something big will happen!

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The talks that were thought to be suspended temporarily may resume in the afternoon.As a result, what He Zhengdao did not expect was that the discussion time of the US military delegation seemed to be a bit long, and it was not until the next afternoon that they decided to continue the meeting.

From this time, He Zhengdao can more or less judge that the US side attaches great importance to the information he provided and the speculation on the future situation.So, what will be the specific effect?

On the way to the conference room ahead, Vice Chairman Zhou also said in a timely manner: "Zhengdao, you can speak up for the next meeting. If there is anything missing, I will help you.

Judging from the initial meeting yesterday, these US military representatives seem to attach great importance to your opinion.Our principle is very simple, that is, to obtain as many loans as possible without violating the principle. Do you think it is possible? "

'Vice Chairman Zhou, I can't guarantee this either.But for the next talks, I still have confidence.If you don't want to be strong, the worst result is that you can't reach any agreement, and it doesn't do us any harm.

Now they are the ones who really want to cooperate. If they really want to seek cooperation with us, I think they should be anxious.So in the next talks, I will properly fight for some favorable conditions for us. '

'Okay, as long as you know what's in your mind, let's go! '

If it were someone else who said such a thing, Zhou Enlai might feel too confident.But for He Zhengdao, Zhou Enlai, who knew his character well, knew very well that this young man's vision and foresight were beyond his reach.

After all, Zhou Enlai, who had known some things about He Zhengdao, knew very well that this person in front of him could not be treated with common sense!

After taking his seat again, Major General Sam also said sincerely: "Mr. Zhou, General He, I'm very sorry for keeping you waiting. It's just that the information and analysis provided by General He need to be discussed and studied domestically.

Now I have been authorized domestically to start talks on some cooperation between our two countries and our militaries.If you have any needs, our country will also provide assistance within its capacity, for the friendship between the two countries! "
