Chapter 1100: Let's talk
"Ahh Waiting for the upgrade of the main base to be completed, Meng Xiang hurriedly glanced at the many familiar weapon names and performance introductions in the base menu, and after a joyful exclamation, there was no need to worry about anything anymore.
He finally understood why he had been unable to upgrade to the second stage of the third level of the base after almost half the world's exploits, and he still needed to jump over the most tenacious time and space barrier of World War II.
If the weapons of the 50s still have the flavor of the Second World War, the weapons of the 60s are already the products of the Cold War, and those weapons of the 70s have reached the peak of the Cold War. Some advanced weapons have also been perfected step by step from the immature period with some rudimentary forms to complete super killing weapons.
The Cuban crisis, which almost led to the outbreak of World War III, was a turning point in the Cold War.
Although the Soviet Union and Russia ended in concessions in the Cuban crisis, the Soviet Union, which had recovered from the shadow of World War II, could already call out the United States directly.
If we say that when the Iron Curtain just fell, the Americans, who were recognized as the number one power in World War II, were still a little self-respecting and used the Soviet Russians to hold Europe hostage, but when the United States was mired in the quagmire of the Vietnam War in the sixties, and after the economic stagnation of various countries after the post-war economic recovery, the Soviet Russians approached step by step, and finally caught up militarily, and even overwhelmed the United States in many fields, and truly rose to become a red empire that frightened the Western world.
The curtain of the most gorgeous confrontation period of the realistic version of Red Alert has finally opened.
This period was also a period of rapid development of science and technology, and when Meng Xiang saw the names of the weapons he was familiar with in the game, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, even if the upgrade brought a lot of time and space barriers, it was worth it.
When the original end date of World War II passed, the third-level primary base of the same era was no longer conspicuous, and even external forces wanted to interfere with the base through the turbulence of time and space, it was difficult to lock on to the target.
Therefore, Meng Xiang has not been upgraded, and he really wants to use this rare period of security to completely settle some troubles in this time and space.
But the world is unpredictable, Lao Xi's rapid fall, and the whole situation has taken a turn for the worse. All of a sudden, Huaxia was forced to the point of single-handedly challenging the whole world. If he only relied on the weapons of the fifties, and did not have an advantage in numbers, although Meng Xiang also felt that he could win in the end, the price he paid was too great.
In order to be more secure, after consulting Xiaohua, Meng Xiang finally chose to upgrade.
And this large-scale attack is also to buy more time for the base upgrade.
……
"Don't be too nervous. Gentlemen! This is just the last madness of the Chinese people! In Congress, Roosevelt explained to the crowd who accused the U.S. military of ineffective warfare.
The Chinese army attacked the continental border of the United States in one go, which greatly alarmed many Americans.
For many years, it has been a long time since there has been no foreign enemy to threaten the US mainland, and even the US Army was once almost deserted.
But now the enemy has come, and at once it has shattered the dream of world hegemony that many Americans who do not care about foreign affairs. Hurt self-esteem.
What's more important is that the Chinese have always been an army of millions, which makes many Americans really feel threatened.
The people blamed the authorities for their incompetence, which made the Chinese people come to the doorstep of the United States, and some political enemies also made a fuss about this matter, and Roosevelt had to stand up and make a statement.
Fortunately, the Germans were about to fall, and Roosevelt's prestige had just risen one step further, otherwise he would not have been able to calm the anger of the people.
"We have observed the actions of the Chinese people. There have been no major changes in the size and weapons of their armies. They just took advantage of our unpreparedness. Launched a sneak attack and took advantage of it. In the end, it is just a matter of taking the initiative in the peace talks! Marshall also reported to Roosevelt on the matter.
At this time, Meng Xiang's statement of using his fists to seek the initiative in peace talks has already been spread. This would have been a normal manifestation of the law of the jungle, and the Americans were convinced.
"The attack of the Huaxia people will stop soon, and then they will take the initiative to contact us to discuss the matter!" Truman thought so, too.
"We should fight back and beat those yellow-skinned monkeys hard!" Leahy is a firm believer in the power of the fist.
"The sudden attack of the Chinese people has caused a lot of loopholes in our layout in the north. We were not prepared and needed some time to adjust before we could fight back strongly. Marshall explained.
The sudden attack of Huaxia disrupted the deployment of the Americans, and it was even difficult to draw up sufficient counterattack forces on the border for a while. For example, in the air power, the Americans do not want to have an advantage in air battles on the border until the wreckage and garbage on the airfields that have been bombed and damaged are completely cleaned up.
Moreover, what he was even more worried about was that the US army on the border could defend itself, and if it attacked rashly, with insufficient troops and insufficient arrangements, it would be easy for the Chinese army to seize the loophole and take advantage of the situation, and if it really hit the US mainland, it would be a shame and a big loss.
"In fact, we can use peace talks to drag down the Chinese, and when we bring back the European troops, we can wipe out all those Chinese people in one fell swoop!" Truman, who was next to him, also suggested postponing the attack and holding peace talks first, perhaps winning the war through peace talks to restrain the growing military system.
"Peace talks must be discussed, and fights must be fought!" Roosevelt, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.
Being forced to the door and not fighting is absolutely not in line with the style of the United States, and the peace talks with one hand can also drag China down, and under the unfavorable conditions of the border at this time, enough time can be gained.
……
"Since the Germans want to talk, we might as well talk about it!" Meng Xiang said calmly.
Just as the news of the successive victories of the Chinese army came, the talk of peace in China was once again noisy, especially after the news spread that the Germans were also actively seeking peace talks with the Allies, more and more people came to Meng Xiang to advise on peace talks.
Except for Meng Xiang, who knew the existence of the base, no one else had the confidence to fight. Being able to negotiate peace under an advantageous situation and obtain the most favorable terms for peace talks is the idea of almost everyone else.
"As long as we are given another twenty years of development time, I am confident that I can catch up with the United States!" The war did not affect the economic development of the country, and the rapid development gave Zhou Bai, who planned the future economy of China, the confidence to shape the economic strength of China. However, this requires a stable environment, and if the whole world is the enemy, no matter whether it wins or loses, the war will inevitably drain the last trace of China's energy.
"Now for peace talks, let's reserve some vitality for the rise of China in the future!" Fan Chong also sighed and persuaded Meng Xiangdao in the end.
He knows Huaxia's military strength best, and if he really wants to fight, Huaxia at this time is really not afraid of the allies for a while. Not to mention the confidence of more than 10 million troops, that is, in terms of weapons, many advanced weapons have also surpassed the allied forces by a large margin.
But the rapid follow-up of the Americans in weapons, as well as the numerical superiority of American weapons, made him feel a crisis.
In a short period of time, it can fight the Allies on an equal footing, but what about later?
Once the weapons obtained from the copycat company are no longer advanced, and they are caught up by the allies, and even that little performance advantage is gone, how long can Huaxia hold out?
With the advantage of this time, it is not bad to be able to drag on until China retreats from the whole body, accumulate strength for ten years and eight years, and take advantage of the contradictions of the great powers to start another war, so as not to draw all the hostile eyes of the whole world at this time.
Even Fan Chong proposed peace talks, and Meng Xiang could only sigh in his heart.
At this time, people did not know the power of nuclear bombs, and in the strange and peaceful era under the nuclear cloud, it was difficult to see large-scale wars of attacking cities and conquering places. If you don't deal with the United States at this time, it will be even more difficult to deal with it later.
After China shrinks and tastes courage, I am afraid that it will also suffer from the Cold War situation of the Soviet Russians, and it will be wasted in various blockades.
At this time, China had already attracted the attention of the entire West, and it would be more difficult to break through the blockade in the future. And in the future war, there are too many variables at home and abroad, and Meng Xiang can't grasp it at all, so it is better to take advantage of the current control ability to continue to fight, at least to pick the fruits of Europe.
However, in order to make everyone in China die, Meng Xiang still has to follow the trend and negotiate first.
Moreover, the peace talks will buy more time.
Not only does it take time to upgrade the base, but it also takes time for the logistics reserves of the Huaxia army.
Even if it relies on sub-bases, it is difficult to support the logistical supply of so many troops. Every time there is a big war in China, it is necessary to reserve a certain amount of materials.
For a long time, the Chinese army's expeditionary operations rarely lasted for more than seven consecutive days, because after seven days of fierce fighting, the logistics chain was prone to problems. Even if the sub-bases are supplied while fighting, they will hold out for a few more days at most.
Like the current big war, six days of bitter fighting, the logistics are already a little strained, and in order to deal with the possible counterattack of the Americans, it is also necessary to leave room for it. The Huaxia army should not continue to fight, and needs to rest.
"Peace talks are peace talks, as soon as peace talks, they will know what those foreigners are!" Meng Xiang, who has already seen through the greedy nature of Britain and the United States, does not mind pushing the boat down the river and opening the door to peace talks.
……
On January 1, 46, the Germans alone first extended an olive branch to Britain and the United States, and on the second day, the Chinese army slowed down the pace of the offensive and also sent a signal to Britain and the United States for peace talks.
The Allies responded quickly.
On 5 January, while artillery fire was still rumbling ahead, peace talks between the Allies and the Axis powers officially began.
"Peace is coming!" The world is watching this historic meeting in Geneva, Switzerland.
But Meng Xiang didn't care about this, he was adjusting the escalating sub-bases, preparing for a more fierce battle to come again. (To be continued.) )
PS: The ending is difficult to write, and under the constant revision, my head has become a mess, and the writing is out of shape. Thank you for your understanding.
