Chapter 845 - Pacific Treaty II
readx; Although China has explicitly promised not to provide all kinds of military equipment and military technology to China in the agreements signed between China and Britain a few years ago, the implementation has not been strong. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
In the first two years, although China did not provide a large number of finished military weapons, it did provide a lot of other materials, not to mention oil, steel, and various industrial raw materials, and even in order to alleviate the shortage of tank and aircraft production, China even provided a large number of aircraft engines and tank engines to China, and these engines could not be China's most advanced products, but even the surname of second-tier products was not inferior to the most advanced products of China. The input of these core components has allowed the production of aircraft and tanks to maintain a relatively stable production, and the output of various outputs, especially tanks, is much higher than in history.
It can be said that the reason why Ben has been able to support until now is completely dependent on China's blood transfusion, and for this reason, China has also squeezed out almost all of the gold and silver stocks in its own country, and a large number of raw materials in the colonies conquered by Ben have also been harvested by China, such as the oil and rubber production in the Nanyang region, especially the rubber has been taken over by China, supporting China's surging development of industry.
And this cannot help but make Britain and the United States think that their war with Ben is in fact a war with China's proxies.
Therefore, in 1944, the core of the negotiations between China and Britain and the United States was what kind of price Britain and the United States would have to pay in exchange for China to stop importing industrial raw materials and all kinds of war materials into the country.
"Myanmar must read thoroughly!" Chen Jingyun looked at the latest negotiation progress document sent back from Washington, and said with a calm face: "Myanmar has been studying for nearly three years, and several Burmese naval bases such as Yangon have become important bases of our country in the Indian Ocean region. ā
"In addition, on the other side of the Strait of Malacca, Singapore is absolutely not controlled by Western countries, since our proposal to manage Malaysia has been rejected by them, then we must fight for Malaysia's reading power, if this cannot be achieved, then what do we talk to them?"
"We in China are not here to help them recover their colonies, we are working hard for the cause of reading power for the Asian people!" Chen Jingyun looked at Ma Yinchu, took a deep breath and said: "Tell Gu Weijun and tell the Americans that if they don't agree, we will start supplying planes and then tanks to us next month, and if they don't agree, we will sell them to our own aircraft carriers!!" ā
Ma Yin frowned when he heard this: "Won't this be too much!" ā
Chen Jingyun snorted coldly: "If we don't be tough, they will think that we are begging them to go, we must let them understand that they are begging us, and it is not okay if they don't pay enough price!" ā
In the past, China always supplied parts and components to the company, but this time, if China can supply finished military equipment to the company, then for the company, the combat effectiveness will soar directly, and in the end, the Anglo-American alliance will not be fighting with China, but with China.
When Gu Weijun tactfully conveyed Chen Jingyun's words at the negotiations in Washington, the faces of the British and American negotiators present changed drastically, and the British negotiator, Marquis Jarry, directly took the case: "You are going to declare war on the British Empire!" ā
Mark Han, the negotiator of the United States, was much calmer, but his face was not very good-looking: "If your country insists on doing so, then I would like to express great regret for this negotiation!" ā
Gu Weijun doesn't care if he regrets or not, he only knows that the bottom line of this negotiation is there, that is, Britain and the United States must recognize China's special interests in the Indochina Peninsula. If this point cannot be achieved, then China's attempt to unite with Britain and the United States to attack the Anglo-American alliance will come to naught, and then the next thing that will mean China is that if it wants to keep the Indochina Peninsula, it must face the opposition of Britain and the United States, and then China will not unite with Britain and the United States to fight against the Anglo-American coalition.
After all, China has been hostile for 100 years, and many wars have been fought, so that the real alliance between China and China will encounter great resistance, and this resistance is not the conflict of interests between the two countries, but the opposition from the people.
To put it more broadly, a complete alliance with Ben would plunge China into a war of attrition with Britain and the United States, and then the Chinese soldiers would have to engage in a brutal war of attrition with the British and American forces in the vast Pacific theater, and it would be a war without a winner.
At this time, China has no other choice, but for Britain and the United States, they also have no second choice, and at the same time in the Pacific Ocean to deal with Ben and Germany, they have already been overwhelmed, if China is also turned into an enemy, then it will be difficult for them to bear, even if the United States is the world's largest power, but at the same time to deal with Germany and China is also powerless, not to mention that China's war potential is not at all below the United States, and even to some extent stronger than the United States, An army that is not inferior to the United States in terms of equipment and has more numbers than the United States, and a Chinese navy that is even larger than the United States Navy.
No proud American thinks they can defeat China outright.
In fact, there are not many choices in the negotiations between China, Britain and the United States, and the current insistence is only in vain. The United States saw that China was so tough, and that the most important thing for the United States now was to defeat Germany and avoid war with China, and everything else was secondary, and as for the Burma and Singapore issues, the loss was not great for American interests.
Because Myanmar is a threat to India's security for Britain or not, but the Americans also hope that India will read, and once an agreement is reached with China, as long as India will not fall into the hands of China, then for the United States, it will represent a huge market of hundreds of millions of people.
And Singapore, the most critical of which is the Strait of Malacca, which is very important for Ben and China, but also important for the United States, but it does not mean that it has to be controlled. In the face of Britain's strong opposition, the United States exerted strong diplomatic pressure on Britain.
In the face of diplomatic pressure from the United States, the invincible Empire finally had to give in, saying that it could accept some of China's demands to a limited extent, but the British Empire would never accept the situation that Burma and Malaysia would be taken over by China, so the British Empire proposed that the reading power could be decided by the local people after the war. In other words, the British Empire would not directly accept China's request and directly let Burma and Malaysia read the power, but allowed them to decide whether to read the test through a referendum after the war.
And this situation is not unique, because as soon as Britain bows its head, China and the United States immediately see that there is an opportunity to take advantage of this. For China and the United States, winning this war is not a difficult task, and what they need to do now is to take this opportunity to completely break the colonial system of Britain, France, and the Netherlands.
Under such circumstances, the relationship between China and the United States entered an extremely delicate state, and the two countries actually joined hands and then put pressure on Britain, Free France, and the Dutch exile to demand that India and Indonesia allow the establishment of the state after the war.
In fact, Britain had already promised to allow India to read power after the war for the sake of the Indians to stand on the side of Britain against Germany and the Dutch exile political axe, but this kind of commitment was only their own words, but it was not guaranteed by China and the United States, and this time China and the United States united to put pressure on Britain, France and the Netherlands, trying to ask Britain, France, the Netherlands and other countries to publicly promise China and the United States that they would allow these colonies to read after the war.
This is the best opportunity to break the old world!
China and the United States have joined forces to tear the chains of the old world, and no country or anyone can stop this.
Colonies will become a historical term after this world war!
On January 24, 1944, China, Britain and the United States secretly signed the "Pacific Convention", which had three points: the first point: the inviolability and freedom of the Asian people, and the second point: Britain promised that all colonies would have the right to hold a referendum to determine whether they could read or not in the post-war period. The third point: China remains completely neutral.
The above three points are so grandiose that ordinary people may not understand their specific meanings, but in layman's terms, they mean that the reading power and freedom of the Asian people are inviolable, and can be roughly understood as the recognition by Britain and the United States of the existence of China's special interests in the Asian region. The second point was that Britain promised the colonies the right to hold a referendum to determine reading ability after the war, which specifically included reading power in India, Burma, and Malaysia on the Indochina Peninsula, with the exception of other British colonies. The third point: China's complete neutrality can be understood as China's severance of all trade with China.
As soon as this Pacific treaty was issued, all countries in the world were in an uproar, because as soon as this treaty came out, it almost meant that China had reached an agreement with Britain and the United States on the division of Asian interests.
"This is their betrayal, this is a naked betrayal!" Hideki Tojo angrily shredded the document in his hand: "When they betrayed the Russian Republic, I knew that they were born traitors and were unreliable!" ā
At this time, Hideki Tojo forgot that China and Yu'Ben had not signed any alliance agreement, although in the eyes of outsiders before, China and Yu'Ben already had a quasi-alliance relationship, but it was only similar.
Although China had already decided at the end of 1943 to declare war on Ben and to capture the mainland before Britain and the United States, even if the decision had already been made, it was not possible to declare war on Ben in a short period of time, and China had to stop the supply of all kinds of resources to Ben first, and only after the war between Ben and the British and American forces was weakened again could China declare war and attack Ben when Ben was at its weakest.
Unleashing a fatal blow when the enemy is at their weakest is the biggest key to success.
Therefore, when China was secretly preparing to fight against China and reached a Pacific Pact with Britain and the United States, on the other hand, China was also appeasing the "Ben" and avoiding the "Ben Dog jumping over the wall to attack China first, or directly throwing himself into the arms of Britain and the United States to surrender or something."
If one remembers the period from June to October 1941, the first half of 1944 is strikingly similar to this period.
