Chapter 778: The Secret Covenant between China and Japan I
readx; "Now the meaning of the Germans is very obvious, that is, they hope that we can flank Soviet Russia with them and form an Eurasian continental alliance!" At the joint meeting of the presidential palace, Gu Weijun explained the recent diplomatic progress to the public. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"In our preliminary negotiations with them, the Germans said that if we could flank Soviet Russia with them, then they promised to occupy only the European part of Soviet Russia, and the Asian part was in our sphere of interest!" Gu Weijun did not go into too much detail about the content of the Sino-German negotiations, because there was no need for this.
As a high-level political axe, Gu Weijun, the Minister General of Foreign Affairs, already belongs to the core class, and he knows more about China's strategic direction than Shen Gang of the military and Ma Yinchu, president of the Political Council, which does not mean that he can decide China's strategic direction, but that Chen Jingyun's China strategy requires diplomatic cooperation.
During this period of time, the tense negotiations between countries were all carried out under the auspices of Gu Weijun, and he knew very well what kind of results China needed to achieve in these negotiations, and he was in charge of diplomatic negotiations better than anyone else in the country, not to mention the vigorous Sino-German negotiations now, but in fact there was not much progress, because the two sides could not achieve the same interests, and there was no common interest when there was no alliance.
Although Chen Jingyun did not say it explicitly, Gu Weijun also knew that the main reason why Chen Jingyun and Germany were ambiguous was that he wanted to put pressure on Britain and the United States to make them scruple and make them recognize China's special interests in the Indochina Peninsula region from the fact that they were in fact acknowledging it, and at the same time adding bargaining chips to the ongoing negotiations on recovering Hong Kong.
But Chen Jingyun didn't say it explicitly, Gu Weijun only guessed one or two by himself, in fact, for China's future strategic direction, in fact, even Chen Jingyun himself did not have a very good direction, basically according to the continuous development of the situation and constantly adjusted, of course, the overall direction is still there, that is, to avoid a full-scale war with Britain and the United States, under such a premise to maximize the possible benefits.
Chen Jingyun can only look at one step at a time, most of the other countries are the same, now the world situation is so chaotic, every country's strategy is changing at the moment, maybe there is still a war between the two countries today, but the next day they become allies, and the third day they turn their faces again. There are so many factors at stake that you can't predict it.
Chen Jingyun is not an immortal, even if he knows some of the historical trends of later generations, but the World War II he is familiar with is not quite the same as history, and the choices of various countries have completely changed, and it is impossible to take out the experience of later generations for reference.
This World War II has nothing to do with the World War II in Chen Jingyun's memory, especially for China.
This is also the fundamental reason why Chen Jingyun is negotiating with other countries at the same time, that is, he hopes to find the most favorable path for China from the chaotic situation.
Gu Weijun continued: "According to the current situation in Germany, they are ready to attack Soviet Russia, and I believe that Director Lin will also be able to get relevant information!" ”
Gu Weijun judged from a diplomatic point of view that Germany had completed preparations to attack Soviet Russia, and Lin Changzhang also said at this time: "Brother Gu is right, according to the intelligence feedback from the agents we arranged in Europe, although the Germans said with great fanfare that they were going to land on the British mainland, but since the situation in Europe in the second half of last year has shown, it can be judged that Germany is actually not capable of landing on the British mainland!" Last year, Germany gathered a large number of forces in order to prepare for landing on the British mainland, but in the battle over the English Channel in the second half of last year, it was shown that the Luftwaffe failed to crush the resistance of the British Air Force, and the weak strength of the German Navy was unable to break through the blockade of the British Navy, so it was judged that Germany had completely lost the possibility of landing on the British mainland, and the English Channel has now presented a stalemate! ”
Germany had plans to land in Britain in the second half of last year, but it was basically impossible for the Germans to land on Britain without a strong navy, and the strength of the British navy was much weaker than during World War I, but it was still a huge navy, and as long as the British Royal Navy still existed, then the Germans would not be able to land on the British mainland. Although the Luftwaffe, which Hitler had high hopes for, was also strong enough, but in the months of the Battle of Britain, the Luftwaffe suffered heavy losses, with a total of more than 1,000 aircraft, although they also caused the loss of nearly 1,000 British Air Force aircraft, and also bombed London and many other British cities, causing nearly 100,000 British casualties, but strategically speaking, the Luftwaffe failed to completely crush the resistance of the British Air Force, but made the British Air Force stronger and stronger, By November 1940, the Luftwaffe was basically no longer able to form an absolute superiority over the English Channel.
Although Stalin was also wary of Germany, he did not expect in the 1940 stage and even in the early months of 1941 that Germany had quietly changed its strategic direction, gave up landing on the British mainland, and changed its strategic direction to the Eastern Front.
Germany's strategic direction was covered up quite well in the early stage, the British did not find it, and the Soviet Russians did not find it, and when the Soviet Russians realized that Germany's strategic center of gravity had shifted eastward, the Germans had already completed the adjustment of the strategic direction at that time.
In the past few months, Soviet Russia has been heavily assembled on the border of Poland, and while the Germans are mobilizing heavy troops to prepare for Soviet Russia, Stalin is not stupid, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he also raised a large number of troops to station on the Polish front, and even transferred a large number of troops from Siberia on the Eastern Front and the Caucasus on the Southern Front to Poland on the Western Front.
If a large-scale war breaks out, it will never be without warning, Germany has shifted its strategic focus to the Eastern Front, and the military spies of various countries are not dry food, and they can find more or less clues, and the key here is the question of whether the leaders of various countries believe it or not.
Others don't know if they believe it or not, anyway, Chen Jingyun believes it, according to the surname of Hitler's madman, it is simply a contrary to common sense to fight Europe and not to fight Soviet Russia.
"In this way, a war between Germany and Soviet Russia is inevitable, and if a war breaks out between them, how will we deal with ourselves?" Shen Gang frowned and said: "If we also send troops to Soviet Russia, even if we don't ally with Germany and only limit the scope of the war to Soviet Russia, it will not be a good thing at that time, and the Russian Republic will not be allowed to directly unify Russia!" ”
Chen Jingyun's attitude towards the north has always been very clear, that is, he does not care about the life and death of Soviet Russia and the Germans, but he will never allow a unified Russia to appear in the north of China. And this is the basic basic starting point for all of China's northern strategic choices.
"Let them call, wait and see the situation first!" For the war between the Soviet Union and Germany, Chen Jingyun still decided to continue to wait and see, if the Russians really can't support it, it is also possible to support Soviet Russia, if the Germans fail to let Soviet Russia attack the European region on a large scale, then Chen Jingyun will have to consider sending troops to Soviet Russia.
"In addition, he said, 'The negotiations on this side have also entered the stage of actual surnames, but if this secret agreement is to be signed, I am afraid that it will arouse opposition from Britain and the United States!"
"It's all a secret agreement, just don't let them know!" Chen Jingyun did not care too much about the opposition of Britain and the United States, and all kinds of diplomatic negotiations against Yu Jingyun were under Chen Jingyun's control.
Compared with the indecisiveness of the situation in the north, Chen Jingyun's strategy for Southeast Asia has always been very clear, that is, on the premise of not breaking out a war with the United States, he must actually control Southeast Asia, and at the worst, he must actually control the Indochina Peninsula. If this is to happen, then China needs a shield, and it says, 'This is the shield.'"
In the past few years, China has supported the "Ben", guaranteed the supply of resources to the "Ben", and supported the occupation of Indonesia and the island of New Guinea and other behaviors are the products of this policy, in fact, this kind of thing can be regarded as semi-public, people say that they are not stupid, and they also know that China supports them in order to let them attract the attention of Britain and the United States, but knowing that they know and knowing does not mean that they will oppose it, after all, they can also get benefits themselves, and Indonesia is one of them.
And China's support said, 'What did you get after this?' If it were not for the fact that China had not attacked Indonesia, it would not have been possible for China to beat its reading power of the five Southeast Asian countries so smoothly, and it would not have been possible to attack the six Southeast Asian countries smoothly this year and control the six Southeast Asian countries militarily and politically.
If it had not been said that China's attack on Indonesia had not been the first to attack, then China's attack on Southeast Asia would definitely have caused a major war, but so far, the price paid by China is negligible.
With this precedent, the relationship between China and China has rapidly sublimated, and the voices of the Sino-Chinese alliance have frequently appeared among the people of China and the two countries, and the slogan of "Asia is the Asia of Asians" has frequently appeared among the people of the two countries. In addition, the Asian Economic Association (AEC) has also played an extremely good role in sublimating the relations between China and the two countries.
Although on the surface the Asian Economic Association is an economic cooperation organization and does not involve the aspect of military alliances, we must not only look at the surface, but also look at the back, the economic ties of the Asian Economic Cooperation Organization countries are almost extremely close, the most representative of which is that all countries have supplied a large amount of resources to China, and China exports a large number of industrial products, including military equipment, to these countries.
And what these economic activities present, that is, the potential of war! If we don't have a large supply of resources from China, then it won't be long before we have to completely collapse, so how can we talk about foreign expansion.'
To a certain extent, the Asian Economic Unity Organization is actually an alliance organization, otherwise why would the Americans not have joined this economic association?
In the past two years, the relations between China and the two countries have rapidly entered a honeymoon period, especially after the attack on Indonesia and the control of six Southeast Asian countries by China.
