Chapter 733: The United States declares war on Germany

"The Japanese are finally on their way!" When Meng Xiang heard that the Japanese and indigenous alliance forces had attacked Catherine and Kitts Harbor, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief

The flames of war have already been ignited in Australia, and all that remains is to see how long the Japanese who have obtained the northern landing will be able to toss.

The rapid march of the Japanese surprised the world, and it was not long before they had already ruled Southeast Asia, guns to guide Asia and Australia, and even Lao Xi began to consider the issue of a formal alliance with the Japanese army.

Rubber and other items in Southeast Asia were also urgently needed by the Germans, and at this time, the Japanese invasion of India also affected the next move of the German army.

"It's a pity that the Chinese people never open their mouths to accept that the Japanese stand with us!" Lao Xi sighed. He had already tried to convince Meng Xiang in various ways, even promising more machines and technology.

"I don't have it, I don't have it!" Some things can be vague, but in this matter, Meng Xiang is very resolute, and he will not let go of this bottom line.

Joke! The sins created by the Japanese in China are not simple interests that can be erased, even if it is just a hypocritical alliance, it can turn its face in the future, and Meng Xiang does not disdain it.

"The Chinese have always refused to form a formal alliance with us, so it is better for us to form an alliance with the Japanese!" Goering was very worried about the Chinese meddling in the German Navy's aircraft carriers, and he couldn't help but give the Chinese people eye medicine because of his arrogance.

"Although China's domestic industry is very backward, the tens of millions of Chinese people are extremely threatening. We'd rather they be our friends than our enemies! Because the war in Soviet Russia was still going well, Field Marshal Brauchitsch, who had not yet been removed from the post of commander-in-chief of the army by Lao Xi, was the first to oppose it, and then Bock and Rundstedt and others did not recommend falling out with the Chinese.

Because of the friendly exchanges between China and Germany, there are often exchanges between the armies of the two sides, and these veterans still have a general impression of the strength of the vanguard army. Although they thought that the level of the Chinese soldiers was not as good as that of the German army, their strength had surpassed that of Soviet Russia and Japan, and even the Germans were shocked when they thought of tens of millions of such soldiers equipped with sophisticated weapons.

"The Huaxia people don't have a strong navy, they are far from us! We can completely block the British with the help of the Japanese navy! Ge Fatzi was not convinced, he preferred to use the powerful Japanese navy to win over it, so as to eliminate the huge military expenditure consumed by the rapid development of the German navy. //

At this time, the German Navy was engaged in a protracted anti-Japanese battle with the British Navy in the Atlantic. The British, after soon receiving ships from the United States and the Umbrella Company, relied on the heritage of the old maritime empire to keep the German Navy out of the British Isles, maintaining the last breath of a lifeline at sea.

This made the unconvinced Lao Xi, after leveling most of Europe, begin to tilt military spending to the navy sharply, and heeded the advice of Meng Xiang and Shanzhai Company, and introduced three aircraft carriers in one go. made a big splash in the hunting with the submarine formation, which caused a lot of dissatisfaction with Ge Fatzi.

The temptation of the Japanese Navy, which claims to be the world's second largest maritime power at this time, is indeed not small, and even Lao Xi hesitated, not to mention that he also took into account the future relationship with the Chinese people, and having a Japanese in Asia to stumble on the development of China is undoubtedly more conducive to Germany's hegemony in the world in the future. Huaxia's tens of millions of troops will definitely have to face it in the future.

"They're not far from us. If the Russians had compromised with them, two million or more Chinese troops would have crossed the Ural Mountains and entered Europe! And, of course, the Russian soldiers of Siberia and the Far East who had escaped from the shadow of the Chinese army. Brauchitsch sneered.

This is exactly what Lao Xi is worried about. Half of Moscow had fallen to the Germans, and as the spring warmed up, the Germans, who had survived a cold winter, had not made much progress, but their confidence had grown. And after the disillusionment of the Russians who intended to sit back and watch the Germans scoop up the footsteps of the Germans, confidence in the two-front battle had already begun to collapse.

It has been rumored that the top level of Soviet Russia has made peace talks with the Chinese people, and even if it cedes the whole of Siberia, it is necessary to first preserve the fruits of the Sovietist regime. After defeating the Germans, it is possible to return to recapture the lost territory.

Because Britain and the United States did not want the ostensibly neutral China to completely turn to Germany, anyway, after the loss of Soviet Russia, it would be more conducive to restraining the expansion of Sovietism in the future, and they also actively promoted peace talks between Soviet Russia and China.

Stalin was under great pressure, but Lao Si still carried it down, hanging the signboard of the sanctity of the country, and he just did not let go. He was gambling that Britain and the United States would not sit idly by and watch Soviet Russia be crushed by Germany, making the Germans the new hegemon of Europe. The number of mobilized soldiers in various places swelled up as quickly as a balloon, which also gave him confidence and confidence.

But Lao Xi obviously couldn't put all the bets on Stalin's unbreakable backbone, he had long heard about the British and American efforts to win over China, but he had invested enough money. Although the message from the Chinese is that the biggest bottom line is to unite with Britain and the United States to target Japan, once Germany and the Japanese are too involved, I am afraid that they will also be involved.

"Let's keep it as it is!" Lao Xi could only say helplessly in the end, "Huaxia is neutral with us, and Japan is also neutral with us, which will not hinder us from doing business!" ”

After some interests were co-opted and compromised, Huaxia had agreed to turn a blind eye to some super-friendly trade between Germany and Japan. The Germans had one more invisible ally.

"Huaxia people don't care, but someone will!" Lao Xi has made up his mind, and the fat man Ge, who has been treated coldly recently because he is too greedy, can only mutter regretfully in the end.

……

"What a headache! The Germans and the Japanese were not considered real allies, and the Germans did not declare war on us. The populace could donate their breakfast and let us kick the ass of the Japanese dwarf monkeys, but they didn't agree with us moving our energy to Europe! U.S. Secretary of State Cordell Hull tapped his index finger on his forehead.

The Americans miscalculated the direct relationship between Germany, Japan, and China, and the three were not brought to the table under Meng Xiang's deliberate suppression, but in a kind of balance in private.

"Our goal is to liberate Europe! To liberate that center and birthplace of Western civilization! Roosevelt sat in a special chair and was silent, as if he had expected everything.

The industrialization of Europe and the plundering of wealth from all over the world have been accumulating for hundreds of years, and have borne fragrant fruits, far from the youth of Asia, which only has resources and insufficient markets. I'm afraid every national leader will make the same choice.

However, after Pearl Harbor, the media units controlled by Germany and Meng Xiang took the opportunity to report and criticize the Japanese, infinitely increasing the hatred of the Japanese, and public opinion in the United States has deviated somewhat from the control of high-level bigwigs. Not many Americans are willing to let go of their enemies and selflessly liberate the irrelevant world.

Hull glanced at the calm Roosevelt, and knew that it was time for him to behave, so he said again: "I'm afraid we're going to start the backup plan!" ”

"History is always strikingly similar!" Roosevelt sighed and nodded.

……

"Can't you come up with something new?" Meng Xiang pinched the emergency information with five stars hanging on it and couldn't help laughing, "Let me guess without difficulty." Forget it, no matter what trick you make, effective is a good trick! ”

Less than three days later, on March 3, another tragedy occurred in the Atlantic.

The supercruise Lafayette, the famous Normandy cruise ship detained by the Americans by the French, was sunk by a German submarine while sailing at night. Although the Germans, who discovered that their information was wrong, then came to the rescue, the boiler room and other places exploded, and the world's largest telex ship sank faster, directly causing the death of more than 1,500 Americans.

The news had spread throughout the United States the next day, even though the Athena had been sunk at the beginning of World War II, and the Americans had only 28 dead. Now more than 1,500 people have died at once, which is definitely a tragedy for Americans. The Titanic of that year was just a number of dead and wounded.

The whole United States, under the conscious guidance, was completely outraged.

The voices of revenge against the Germans grew louder and louder.

……

"Americans are really willing!" Meng Xiang was full of emotion in his heart, for the interests of the country, or even just for the interests of a few oligarchs, even if it was an American, it was like a sacrifice like a mustard.

It seems that the Americans also know that it is impossible to throw out another incident of Germany uniting Mexico, and can only increase the death toll to provoke the indignation of the American people. Although this is not as good as the shocking tragedy of the Soviet Russians sinking the German mail ship in later generations, it seems that it has also had an effect after so many deaths! ”

……

Voices of hostility towards Germany grew louder in the United States, and German justifications and explanations were quickly drowned out. With Jews and exiles from various countries who fled to the United States, and the predators behind them, Washington finally officially declared war on Germany on March 5.
