Chapter 828 Key Issues (Three Shifts for Monthly Tickets))
Roosevelt was very worried about the fighting situation on the Canadian front at this time, and now that the British government was also in the United States, Britain had been completely occupied by Germany, and Germany was still organizing its troops, and it was estimated that it would soon send troops to attack the Soviet Union.
However, Stalin of the Soviet Union did not believe that Germany would attack the Soviet Union so quickly, he knew that Germany would attack the Soviet Union, but he did not believe that Germany would attack so quickly, so the United States sent a large number of personnel to persuade Stalin, but it was ineffective, Stalin just did not send troops to attack the Japanese troops in the Far East.
If the Soviet Union launched an attack at this time, without the containment of the German troops, the Japanese troops would not be able to stop it at all, and when the time came, Japan's path to attack the United States mainland through the Bering Strait would be blocked, and the Japanese troops would not be able to obtain logistical supplies, and the United States would soon be able to drive the Japanese troops out of the American continent.
But the Soviet Union just didn't do it, and now they have signed a non-attack pact with Germany, and they have also signed an agreement with Japan!
Therefore, Stalin believed that the Soviet Union was quite safe now, and he did not want the Soviet Union to fall into the quagmire of war, and there was a relatively big problem that the excellent senior commanders of the Soviet Union had been almost killed by Stalin, and now he wanted to form an attack corps, but found that there were not enough generals.
Therefore, now Stalin is no longer attacking those generals at home, and he is also worried that Germany may attack, but he still hopes that Germany will give him a little more time, so that he can also find more good generals.
"Your Excellency the President, let's not think about the Soviet Union now, let's try to convince the Yan'an side and let them start attacking the Japanese troops in the northeast of their country!
Now the Japanese troops that can attack Northeast China are the troops in Yan'an, and the troops in Chongqing can't pass at all now, and the places along the way are controlled by Yan'an, and Chongqing just wants to fight, but there is no way to send troops over! A thinker looked at Roosevelt and proposed.
"Yes, I also think so, now the only Japanese troops that can attack the Far East is Yan'an, and Yan'an also has this strength, they now have their own planes and tanks, plus they have a large Chinese population, I think, it is not difficult for Yan'an to form millions of troops!" A general of the staff also nodded and said.
"But now we want China's troops to attack Southeast Asia and India, I think Southeast Asia must be fought by Chongqing's troops, and India's troops must be fought by Yan'an's troops, that is, Hu Bin's troops.
According to what I know, Yan'an is very poor, and if you want to fight on two fronts, and it is such a large-scale operation with such a long supply line, I feel that Yan'an may not be able to bear it! Another general spoke.
"India doesn't need to fight, or rather, it's not in a hurry to fight first, as long as they solve Japan's troops in the Far East, then they can greatly reduce the pressure on our country!" The thinker who started the proposal spoke.
"But you have to know that the devils in India are also a great threat to China, and once the Japanese troops have raised a large number of troops in India, they will be able to threaten the security of Yan'an when they attack directly from the northwest of China.
You say, whether the Yan'an side will fight the Japanese troops in India first, or the Japanese troops in the Far East first, if we are the high-level in Yan'an, we will definitely solve the Japanese troops in India first, and then the troops in the Far East, they can't beat them anyway, and they can still drag it out! The dissenting general continued to retort.
"Okay, don't talk about it yet, what you said can't solve the problem fundamentally!" Roosevelt said suddenly.
When those people heard this, they all looked at Roosevelt, not knowing what kind of insight he had that could solve these problems fundamentally.
"The key now is not whether China will fight the Japanese troops in the northeast, or the Japanese troops in India, the key is whether China will listen to our advice, we have to persuade them, and fight Japan with us, if China is solving the Japanese troops in India, and then solving the Japanese troops in Northeast China, it will no longer continue to attack the Japanese troops, what will we do?
This is the key, as long as China is willing to help us fight Japan, then it will be a matter of time before we stabilize Canada's defense line and defeat Japan, but you must not forget that the problem of Japan has been solved, and we still have a huge problem to solve, which is Germany.
This is what is difficult to solve, and the combat effectiveness of the German troops is not much stronger than that of the Japanese troops. Therefore, the key now is for us to convince China and let China fight fascism with us! Roosevelt voiced his opinion.
Now they are proposing to let China fight here and there, it is useless, China will not listen to the United States, and now China must first consider the interests of its own country, and then the interests of the United States are not within the scope of China's consideration.
When those wise men and generals heard this, they all fell silent, and they also acquiesced in the fact that what Roosevelt had just said was right!
"We invite Commander Chiang of Chongqing to visit our country! There may be a chance! Marshall said suddenly.
"What we want now is to cooperate with Yan'an, and of course we also want to cooperate with Chongqing, but it is not that important!" A thinker retorted.
"Wrong, Chongqing's side is also very important, no matter what, Chongqing is China's legitimate government, Yan'an still has to listen to Chongqing in name, we can only invite Commander Jiang of Chongqing to come to our country first, and then we can continue to invite Commander Mao of Yan'an to our country.
At the same time, Commander Chiang's troops were able to directly attack Southeast Asia, and as you know, most of the soldiers fighting in Canada now are Southeast Asian soldiers, not their Japanese soldiers, and if Commander Chiang can quickly conquer Southeast Asia, then Japan will not have so many troops.
Of course, Hu Bin is still needed to be able to defeat India, but now China's two commanders and two forces are equally important for our country! Marshall looked at the thinker and retorted.
"General Marshall is right, they are equally important, and I must first invite Commander Chiang, and then ask Commander Chiang's opinion and invite Commander Mao, otherwise, as long as their side is dissatisfied with the behavior of our country, there will be problems in our country!" Roosevelt nodded and said, agreeing with Marshall.
"Now wait for specific news from Burma, once the news is true, I think, we still need Stilwell and Jensen to invite Commander Jiang to come to our country!" Marshall spoke.
At this time, in Chongqing, China, Commander-in-Chief Chiang was also convening a meeting of generals, and they also received news that the Japanese troops in Nay Pyi Duo had been defeated, and now the Japanese troops throughout Burma, as well as the Japanese troops engaged with Wei Lihuang, were retreating, and Wei Lihuang's troops were pursuing the Japanese retreating troops.
"What the hell is going on, why didn't Hui Shan send this news, we still got this news through the intelligence department, the telegram just sent to Hui Shan, it's been almost half an hour, and he hasn't replied to us yet!" Commander Chiang was a little dissatisfied with Wei Lihuang's concealment of the actual situation on the front line this time.
However, he was also a little dissatisfied, and he was quite satisfied with Wei Lihuang's command and operation in Southeast Asia.
"It's very strange, we have obtained definite news, Japan is indeed retreating, and we also know that Commander Wei's troops are now pursuing, why didn't there be a telegram!" Li Zongren was also puzzled at this time, such important news, Wei Lihuang could not have missed it, and he would definitely report it to the General Headquarters and the General Staff.
And Commander Jiang didn't say anything before, even Jiang Dingwen didn't send a telegram, and if there was any big move in the general troops, Jiang Dingwen would definitely send a telegram to himself, but now there is no one, which makes Commander Jiang very strange.
However, Commander Jiang can't say it, once he says it, doesn't he tell everyone that he is still a little worried about Wei Lihuang, and he sent Jiang Dingwen over there to be a prison army?
"Commander, why don't we continue to send a telegram over to ask, what is going on, we were worried about their safety before, and all of a sudden, the situation has changed immediately, and the Japanese troops are retreating, and they actually don't report such an important situation!" He Yingqin looked at the commander and proposed.
"I've sent a telegram, and I haven't come back yet, I think I'll probably come back later!" Commander Jiang spoke.
"Won't come back!" At this time, Sun Liren, who was sitting at the back, spoke.
"Haha, Fumin, it's you again, tell me, what do you think?" When Commander Jiang heard Sun Liren speak, he burst out laughing.
Sun Liren had just been transferred to the side of the General Staff, and his suggestions were correct these times, which made Commander Jiang very satisfied, so Commander Jiang was very interested in what Sun Liren said.
"Yes, Commander, according to my speculation, Commander Wei didn't deliberately fail to report, but he couldn't report it!" Sun Liren stood up and spoke.
"Can't report? Why can't you report it, this situation is good news! Didn't you lose the battle and want to hide it from me? When Commander Chiang heard him say this, he was very incomprehensible.
And the other generals looked at him, not knowing what they meant.
"Generals, think about it, Okamura Ningji has been defeated, what should Hu Bin do? Or, what do we need Hu Bin to do? Sun Liren looked at the generals and asked.
"Then it goes without saying, of course it's fighting, chasing the Japanese troops to fight, quickly solving the Thai devils, etc., no, no, no!" When He Yingqin heard it, he immediately said it, but as he spoke, he immediately realized that something was wrong. (To be continued.) )
