Chuikov did not know the information about the Second Armored Army's route to Chernushka. At the same time, he also knew that Ouyang Yun could not lie about this kind of thing. His face suddenly became a little ugly. When there was no excuse, the Chinese had already After passively avoiding the war, now that they have an honest reason, can they still expect the Chinese to "fight bloody battles"? As a veteran with rich political struggle experience and battlefield combat experience, Chuikov knows what happened to the Chinese people's sudden change in combat attitude. Where, their supreme commander went back on his word on the Far East issue,
When the Chinese Far East Expeditionary Force entered the front line to confront the German army, it may have thought that the Chinese had no choice but to fire. Coupled with the reversal of the war situation, the Soviet Russian government slowed down its evacuation of residents in the Far East. With Chuikov's response to Knowing the political situation in Soviet Russia, Beria of the Ministry of Interior would definitely not dare to do this without Stalin's authorization. As for why Stalin did this, Chuikov can now conclude that the relevant provisions signed in the "Chongqing Agreement" were The regulations in the Far East are basically the Supreme Commander’s strategy.
When the relevant agreements in the Far East were reached, Chuikov expressed his unequivocal opposition. This was also the position of the vast majority of senior military and political officials in Soviet Russia at that time, because they felt that although doing so would give Soviet Russia a chance to survive, it would be difficult to cede territory to survive. Let them bear the historical infamy. Even if they can finally defeat Germany, they will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history and become the eternal "villain". The opposition at that time was ineffective. Chuikov could only hold his nose and face reality with a heart of humiliation. He continues to stay in Chongqing. Now, Chuikov still holds objections to Stalin's renegade because he also feels that the price is too high. He has dealt with Ouyang Yun more and has a certain understanding of this too young "Supreme Commander". Chuikov knew that if the country went too far on the Far East issue, Ouyang Yunzhen might make some extraordinary moves, including withdrawing the Far East Expeditionary Force.
"It seems that those guys in the country have really put a lot of pressure on the Supreme Commander. But it has become a fact, and the domestic war situation has not fundamentally changed because of this. Can't they just endure it for a while?" Chuikov thought. , a feeling of powerlessness arose in his heart. Because he knew Stalin's character, Chuikov knew that the reason why he went back on his words on the Far East issue was, on the one hand, due to his personality, and most importantly, because this incident had challenged his status. ,This is of course unacceptable to Stalin,
Wherever there are people, there will be struggle. This has always been the case throughout the ages. Chuikov did not want to express any opinions on this, but it would affect the stability of the domestic political situation and even the war situation, so he could not agree with it. He was worried about the domestic situation, but standing in front of Ouyang Yun, He didn't want to show it, so he let out a sigh of relief, stared into Ouyang Yun's eyes and said: "Your Excellency, from my personal perspective, I understand why Commander-in-Chief Zhang did this, and I think that as of now, Commander-in-Chief Zhang The strategy in Sabi is effective, but..."
In the same words, Chuikov has already said too much. This is the sad thing about asking for help. Obviously, Ouyang Yun has heard too many such words, so he has no patience to continue listening. He waved his hand to interrupt. Said: "Nothing to worry about, Marshal Chuikov, as a well-known general, I think you should know what will happen if the Sabi front collapses, so we can only trust Commander-in-Chief Zhang and let him decide the specific operations. , Okay, I have a meeting later, so I can’t accompany you anymore.”
Ouyang Yun saw off the guests directly. No matter how thick-skinned Cuikov was, he could not continue to rely on him. Full of disappointment, he paid Ouyang Yun a military salute and walked out with heavy steps.
Ouyang Yun asked Pan Meiren to send it out, and when she came back, she said with a smile: "Meiren, this telegram came in time."
"I think it will work for you, okay." Pan Meiren replied with a smile, then added water to his teacup.
Ouyang Yun turned around, opened the curtain on the wall behind him, faced the huge map, and recited the words "Zhang Zizhong" with a smile on his face. The Soviet Russians actually dared to make trouble on the issue of immigration to the Far East. , he originally thought of calling Zhang Zizhong and asking him to act according to the situation, but now it seems that it is no longer necessary.
"Lian Yun said that the Americans are gearing up for a big fight, Mei Ren, what do you think?" Because he was in a good mood about the expeditionary force, Ouyang Yun also became interested in chatting with Pan Mei Ren about national affairs, so he took over from Pan Mei Ren. Taking a sip from the tea cup, he asked,
"Isn't this exactly what you want to see?" Pan Meiren said with a smile, "The best result is that both sides fight to a bloody head, and then our Pacific Fleet, the First Expeditionary Army, and the Second Expeditionary Army will take advantage of the situation to enter."
"Am I so mean?" The smile on Ouyang Yun's face became even thicker. When he heard the information sent back by Gu Lianyun, the first thing he thought of was indeed this. Pan Meiren, as a person close to him, had long been interested in him. His character is very clear, so it is not difficult to guess his thoughts on this matter.
"It's a bad idea, but I like it very much."
Ouyang Yun shook his head, and then changed the subject: "Americans have really strong industrial production capabilities. In just over half a year, they actually built seven more fleet aircraft carriers. Hey, if we had this kind of shipbuilding capability, we should It has already reached Tokyo."
"There is no comparison. The United States entered industrialization about a hundred years earlier than us, but I thought that we should be able to have such industrial strength in twenty years at the latest. By the way, I heard Guo Kui said that you are going to go there next month. Karachi.”
"Well, the newly built 'Huangdi' class aircraft carrier at Karachi Shipbuilding Plant is launched. I promise your eldest sister will go and cut the ribbon."
"Sister, I miss you."
"I miss her too, as well as Liusu and Jia Yao. After all, we haven't seen each other for more than half a year."
"Why did you forget about this foreign girl?" Pan Meiren's eyebrows turned cold.
It was always Ouyang Yun's fault for having a relationship with a British girl. Even though he was thick-skinned, he could only smile awkwardly at this moment.
The atmosphere in the office was a bit cold. Ouyang Yun was just thinking about convening a meeting when Song Ziwen's voice rang in the corridor: "Is the Prime Minister here?"
"I'm here." Ouyang Yun quickly replied loudly, and then said to Pan Meiren: "Foreign Minister Song and I have important things to discuss, so please stay out of the way first."
Pan Meiren glanced sideways at him and walked out,
Song Ziwen walked in and laughed when he saw Ouyang Yun: "Prime Minister, you are lucky to have lived up to your fate."
Ouyang Yun's eyes lit up and he asked, "It's done."
