"Finally solved a small problem!" Receiving the news of successfully winning the lottery boat, Meng Xiang rubbed his forehead slightly tiredly. ,!

If it weren't for the wealth on board the lottery boat, Meng Xiang wouldn't need to worry too much about it.

There are so many things that need his attention.

In addition to the domestic economic and political affairs, the recent continuous war has involved his main energy.

Friction on the Indo-Burmese border and the Sino-Soviet border is escalating, and in Europe, the German army, even with the support of the bases, is still lacking in personnel and has begun to attack weakly. In the Middle East, Anglo-American forces continued to infiltrate Aladdin's Shenyue Kingdom, and provoked Saudi Arabia and Iraq and even Iran to wage armed conflict against the Shenyue Kingdom, with which it was in dispute.

In the Tasman Sea and the Coral Sea, the U.S. Navy is moving closer to Australia.

The Americans moved so much that they were no longer as secretive as before, and even troops began to be stationed along the Bering Strait in Alaska.

Of course, their biggest action is still in Japan.

After the armed conflict with China, the Americans accelerated the transfer of troops to the main island of Japan, and in just one week, they mobilized another 50,000 troops.

At this time, the number of US troops involved in the armed conflict between the north and south of Tenryu River and Sendai had exceeded 60,000, and even one clash was already fighting at the regimental level.

But the Americans, like the Chinese, rarely did not immediately issue a declaration of war. The last piece of paper of the tacit understanding between the two sides was not pierced, but they were busy preparing for the war.

Direct trade between the two sides has plummeted, but buying and selling through third parties is booming, accumulating supplies for their respective needs.

Negotiators on both sides are still arguing, using Japan as a bargaining chip, while public opinion in the rear of each country is building momentum for their actions and winning more popular support.

An anti-China undercurrent has surged out in the United States, and some people have even begun to take action to take the opportunity to point the finger at the Chinese in the United States.

……

"These damn yellow-skinned monkeys! They should be stripped naked and driven into the Pacific Ocean! Pete shouted. led dozens of younger brothers with sticks, knives and guns shouting all the way to Chinatown in the East District.

In recent years, with the rise of China and the improvement of relations with the United States, the status of Chinese in the United States has also been continuously improved, at least when Pitt's group of ruffians went to ask for protection money, the police came forward.

"Boss. There are police! At a street corner, a younger brother next to him reminded nervously in his ear.

Hearing this, Pete immediately put away the Colt revolver that was raised in mid-air and attached it to the pocket of his trench coat.

Their petty ruffians are no match for the American gangsters who can sweep through police stations with Thomson assault rifles, and they still scratch their heads at police interference.

"No, don't be afraid!" Pete remembered the explanation of the person on the phone, and couldn't help but encourage his subordinates, "We have found someone!" ”

"The boss is really the boss! Stronger than the Red Dogs of Bison Street! "When I saw the two policemen at the corner of the street, they turned a blind eye to a group of ruffians with various weapons walking past them. The little brothers who turned the corner of the street slapped their horses one after another.

"Let's go, let's go and occupy the entire Chinatown completely!" Pete couldn't help but be smug and shouted as he raised his Colt pistol again.

But when he arrived at Chinatown, he found that the Colt revolver in his hand could not be compared with the Remington double-barreled shotgun in the hands of the Chinese opposite, and he was pointed at the head by more than a dozen shotguns, and fled back empty-handed in the shocked eyes of the two policemen at the corner of the street.

……

Compared with the preparation of the Americans, Meng Xiang is more prepared.

Not only those international students and some Chinese who are willing to evacuate have already withdrawn to China one after another. Even the Chinese who remained in the United States were organized and joined various armed self-protection organizations. Fight against harassment by non-governmental actors. Of course, there is no way to resist the military action of the US government for the time being, but the US government does not dare to blatantly mutilate the Chinese.

Even after Pearl Harbor, the U.S. government was ostensibly isolated from Japan, after all, once an overly brutal act appeared on a large scale, it was easy to overflow, and finally the loss of control directly affected the superstructure of the United States.

After the China restriction order was repealed, no new one has been introduced, but the US government has always turned a blind eye to how many dirty things are in private.

Of course, it is difficult to move the number of methods secretly to the table to publicize. Under Meng Xiang's matchmaking organization. Even sent elites to enrich the backbone, so that the Chinese self-defense forces were still enough to protect themselves against those secret behaviors.

Even if there is an unexpected situation, Meng Xiang has other backhands who have been laid out for many years, so that the Americans have to retreat.

Of course, it was the battle on the front line that ultimately determined the attitude of the Americans.

With neither side declaring war, the Chinese army continued to use limited attacks on American forces. Again, the main focus was on sweeping up the Japanese.

The Japanese, who had been urged by the Americans to attack China from the north, originally just wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight and stick to the northern front, but the Chinese army did not get angry at the Americans, but beat the Japanese hard.

Although the vicinity of Nagano was difficult to conquer at once due to the many fortifications of the Japanese for many years, the Chinese army, which was constantly coordinated by air assaults, successively captured Matsumoto, Takaki and other towns, completely isolating Nagano.

The Chinese troops that landed from Niigata also threatened to Fukushima and Koriyama, and if it had not been for the timely arrival of American troops, they would have almost cut off the land communication between Sendai and Tokyo.

And the Chinese army, which had attacked Takasaki and Maebashi, had also threatened Tokyo.

The Japanese, who had lost another 400,000 troops one after another, constantly complained about the Americans, and vigorously encouraged and squeezed the Americans to declare war on China.

……

"There's no way the Congress is going to drag it out any longer! The losses at the front were great, and the Chinese were even more difficult to deal with than we thought. Now that the number of casualties has exceeded thousands, an explanation is needed, and it is not enough to just rub the conflict. Leahy suggested to Roosevelt.

"But are we ready to declare war?" Marshall picked up a report and asked, "This is a report from Stilwell, suggesting not to start a war with the Chinese, at least not now!" ”

"Why not now? The Germans are retreating, they are now on the verge of exiting Paris and London, and Cairo is now in our hands. And then there was Moscow, where the news came from Stalin that the size of the German army in Moscow was shrinking. Even though Hitler had begun to expand the conscription to 15 to 48 years old, Moscow's meat grinder had already swept up more than a million German troops. Also in Grozny, a million Germans were exterminated. Leahy retorted,

"Okay, even if the Russians are exaggerating, it is undeniable that the Germans can no longer afford to fight such a battle. According to our calculations, perhaps by the end of next year, the Germans will be unable to hold on and will begin to surrender. Even now, they can't recover from the loss. Could it be that with the Chinese, they will be able to change the situation in Europe? Could it be that the Chinese people will have another long-distance airdrop? But Europe is not Siberia in the middle of nowhere, nor is it Japan like a blank sheet of paper in the sky. ”

Leahy's disdain made Marshall no longer speak.

Both Stilwell and Ridgway's reports showed the strength of the Chinese Army, which made Marshall really uncertain, but as Roosevelt said, the decisive battlefield of this war was the sea and the sky.

"Our allies have different views, but most of them are opposed to involving the Chinese, which is a huge variable. At least Stalin, who had been boasting about the brave victory of the Soviet army, was strenuously opposed! Truman interjected.

"The British are also against it! They are afraid that we will turn our focus to Asia, knowing that there are still German troops fighting on their homeland, and of course they are more worried that we will take Australia and Southeast Asia too quickly! Leahy sneered, "And the French, who are not worried about French Indochina for the time being, and are busy coveting a lot of cheap Chinese goods, and do not want to pay us an extra dollar for it!" But we should remember that our allies are not a substitute for our decisions, and the United States has its own will and decisions. We need to fight for the interests of our Motherland, no matter who the enemy will be! ”

"The war will directly affect our interests in exporting to China! We also need Huaxia-controlled rubber, tin, tungsten sand, tung oil, pig bristles, and even some of their primary industrial products! Vice President Wallace, who is nearing the end of his term, also said.

"Don't worry! The war won't last long! The Chinese may have a slightly better army, but when they find that their coasts and skies are controlled by us, they will give in early. And we can celebrate the feast of victory! Not only the resources of China, but also the products of Southeast Asia, you can also let us choose! Leahy said confidently.

At this time, the Americans still stubbornly believed that they would first weaken the Japanese navy like a baby before they would be defeated by the Chinese.

"We will teach the Huaxia Navy a good lesson before graduating from elementary school! Let them firmly remember that the Pacific Ocean will always belong to the Americans! "After years of rapid expansion, the U.S. Navy has climbed to its most powerful state, and it has also replaced Britain as the world's largest on the planet. After the Japanese Navy was beaten down, the Chinese Navy rose strongly. The Americans also need to take advantage of their strength to suppress the development momentum of the Chinese Navy.

War is the best teaching stick.

"That's it!" Roosevelt raised his hand, his chief of staff, Leahy, had already said everything for him, and he only needed to make a final conclusion, "Make the final preparations first!" Time is running out! (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
