What Simon didn't know was that Song Ziwen had had an in-depth discussion with Ouyang Yun about whether to take this opportunity to give the British a hard blow. Song Ziwen had made such an unnecessary move because he was actually worried that he would not be able to deal with it well enough to impress someone. It will have a negative impact on his career, but his real idea is not to extort anything from the British. It is just an attitude. When Ouyang Yun comes here, he becomes the British Nightmare, as a time traveler, Ouyang Yun naturally knows very well how valuable Britain is. Therefore, Song Ziwen thought that the British had nothing to offer after the Hong Kong issue. In his opinion, the British had much more valuable things. Woolen cloth,
"Fuel, diesel, gasoline and aviation kerosene. Our troops are too highly mechanized and have huge needs. The British happen to have accumulated enough in this area. China is poor in military expenditures. It is financially unbearable to support such a large army on its own. Tell that to that person. Simon, as long as the British can solve the military expenditure problem, we might as well help them regain their homeland just like we helped the French..."
Ouyang Yun's words made Song Ziwen suddenly enlightened and broke into cold sweat at the same time. He was familiar with diplomatic rules and had a basic understanding of national conditions, so in his opinion, Ouyang Yun was a naked blackmail. And when he looked at Simon again, deep in his heart While feeling a little sympathetic, I felt that Simon was as if he were made of gold. Otherwise, how could he be so shiny all over?
Regarding what kind of demands China would make, Simon was confident because of the trump card given by Churchill. However, the Chinese people's appetite was really too great, so even so, when Song Ziwen finished speaking, he still came out. Breaking into a cold sweat,
"How about it, can you make the decision? You know the strength of our army. To put it bluntly, we are not afraid of any enemies now. It is only because of the weak international finance that we do not have the ability to fully mobilize. As long as there are people To help us solve this problem, I think sending troops to Europe is also possible, let alone increasing troops to the Indo-China Peninsula." Song Ziwen finally said,
After hearing his last words, Simon suddenly became excited and stammered: "You, you said, your country can send troops to Europe." After saying that, he nervously waited for Song Ziwen's answer.
Song Ziwen: "As an important member of the Allied Powers and a world power, the Chinese people will not evade their responsibilities."
"A world power." Simon was startled for a moment, and then his heart began to beat.
Ouyang Yun is ambitious. This is the consensus of leaders of Western countries. Originally, the British and Americans sneered at this, but now, even if they still hold this idea in their hearts, they never dare to show it on their faces. ,
The second meeting between Simon and Song Ziwen still did not result in a specific agreement, but because China clearly stated the price, for Simon, the results were quite fruitful.
Half an hour after the meeting ended that day, a telegram he drafted himself was placed in front of Churchill. After reading the telegram, Churchill suddenly became excited as Simon expected.
Of course the British want to regain their homeland, but North Africa and the Middle East are struggling to maintain it. India, now known as the last stronghold of the British, will be attacked by Germany and Japan from the east and west, so they have to focus on the immediate future and do not dare to take long-term measures. Song Ziwen said that if conditions permit, China can even send troops to Europe. This gives the British a hope. It may be an exaggeration to describe the current British government as a drowning person, but the current situation facing the British government is also Not much better than this, so for the British, Song Ziwen's statement was actually no different from the life-saving straw that could get them ashore. That night, Churchill held a high-level meeting because of this, and after seven days, After hours of consultations, Churchill's cabinet decided to form a high-profile delegation headed by Foreign Minister Eden to Chongqing to explore the possibility of China sending troops to Europe. After the meeting ended that day, Churchill left Eden behind, and the two talked for more than three days. After hours, we finally came up with a set of specific plans to deal with various possible situations from China.
When China and Britain began to enter a "honeymoon" state, in Singapore, after thinking hard and thinking hard, Koizumi Toshiichiro finally went to the extreme.
After thinking hard for three days and nights, Koizumi had to bitterly accept the fact that it was simply wishful thinking for Japan to catch up with China based on its current conditions. Since this normal channel was unavailable, then Japan should continue to have Japanese characteristics. This path has become the last straw for Japan to save the current crisis.
Compared with the staff officers at the domestic base camp, Koizumi is smarter than them. Firstly, he sees the situation more clearly. Secondly, because of his relationship as a time traveler, some of his methods are more targeted. Koizumi made this choice. It was also a helpless move. It was not that Xiaoquan had not thought of the new weapons that had appeared in the Xuebing Army, and even the super bomb that was being studied, and it was not that he had not taken action. It was just because he did not have the conditions for Ouyang Yun to stick to his word. In addition, the Japanese army is generally complacent, resulting in certain technologies that are far behind the world average. High-end weapons such as missiles cannot be developed overnight. Therefore, although he works hard enough, it is simply impossible. Achieve those ambitious goals in a short period of time,
After the special attack tactic was thwarted by the Xuebing Army's Golden Eagle plus missile tactic, and after the Xuzhou air battle, Koizumi once reflected on the pros and cons of this tactic. There was a tendency to wake up, but now, based on the harsh reality, he I can't care about this anymore,
"If you can't realize your ideal perfectly, then let's destroy it vigorously." Such thoughts arose in his mind and were reflected on his face, making him look a little more ferocious than before.
Three days later, in the office of Yamamoto Isoroku of the Tokyo Military Headquarters, Yamamoto held a telegram sent by Koizumi Minichiro. His expression kept changing between cloudy and sunny. After a long time, he suddenly punched the table hard.
What Koizumi sent was a plan. In this plan, he proposed to form a special tactics force. The force would be divided into three parts: a man-controlled torpedo force, a man-controlled missile force and a man-controlled bomb force.
"No matter how advanced electronic technology is, its flexibility and sensitivity are not as good as human beings. What is the greatest advantage of the empire now is that it has millions of death-defying warriors. They can either go to heaven or go to hell. Everything is for the future of the empire." At the end of this plan, Koizumi said beguilingly,
Yamamoto was originally a gambler, and Koizumi's last words just inspired his gambler character, "Heaven or hell." He punched the table hard and shouted in his heart: "It's a gamble."
