The first thousand and sixty-five chapters Song Ziwen's mission
If someone in Chongqing has been paying attention to Song Ziwen's whereabouts, they may not be sure where he went, but they can be sure that he has been away from Chongqing for some time. As the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Song Ziwen is not in Chongqing or even in the country. Of course he is on a visit, but it is just like Just like I don’t know where he went, what he did when he went out is also a mystery.
Song Ziwen was working for the United Nations during this period. The United Nations, that time and space, was a product advocated by Americans, so the United Nations headquarters was later located in the United States, and for a long time, the United States naturally made the United Nations a Depending on which country is not pleasing to the eye, or even for political and economic interests, their spokespersons will often be United Nations resolutions or United Nations troops, allowing them to wear the skin of the world's policeman.
In this time and space, due to the emergence of Ouyang Yun, the situation has changed. It is true that the advocate is still US President Roosevelt, but it is China who is really the first to form a coalition army. This is nothing, after all, the current coalition army It's not a big deal yet, and they actually have to rely on China's mortal enemy, the Japanese, to support the situation. However, just like the Americans in that time and space established the United Nations just to give themselves a name when plundering other countries' resources, Ouyang Yun's purpose in forming this coalition was just to pave the way for the formal establishment of the United Nations.
From a telegram sent back from Europe, he learned that Hitler's physical condition was very poor during this period. From this, Ouyang Yun realized that there were not many days left for history to deviate from the normal track. In other words, the defeat of the Axis Powers It can be expected that once the war is over, many things will become unjust and unjust. China's foundation is still too weak. Although it has achieved considerable development with the help of this war, it is obviously not enough to make China like that time and space. If the United States maintains a crushing advantage over other countries and is not strong enough to dominate one country, then political means will become a necessary auxiliary. An obedient, even temporarily obedient United Nations will become a rigid need. Otherwise, it will not be enough to make China At least dominate the Pacific Ocean and have a fairly long and stable development cycle.
The United Nations is originally a product of the allied structure, which means that the biggest resistance for China to take over the United Nations will come from the allied countries. Within the allies, the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain, France, and China are countries of the same level. The United States, the Soviet Union, Britain, and France have become China's biggest competition. Opponents, among them, the United States, despite losing consecutive battles, is only a second generation rich man who can afford it, so Ouyang Yun does not dare to ask the United States to compromise on this issue. Of the remaining three countries, the Soviet Union is the best It can be solved, because it still cannot do without China's assistance. The key lies in Britain and France. This is the unified understanding reached by Ouyang Yun and Song Ziwen when discussing this matter. Among Britain and France, France has less difficulty. , after all, the French are still counting on China to help them fight back to Europe, and the head of state who is currently fighting France, Ang Bos, has a close relationship with the Xuebing Army, so before traveling, Song Ziwen patted his chest and promised that he would definitely convince France to let Ang Bos and De Gaulle agreed that the Chinese government should be responsible for the preparations for the Charter and the headquarters of the United Nations. Compared with France, the British were more difficult to convince. Although on the surface, the British are closer to China, Ouyang Yun and Song Ziwen both knew that this was because "having milk means having milk." Because of "mother", if the British were not in urgent need of Chinese weapons and equipment, perhaps Churchill, who was "many of everything", would not have given Song Ziwen a chance to make an argument.
Song Ziwen spent a full month and a half on his trip to Southeast Asia and India, and judging from his expression, it was obvious that he successfully persuaded Ang Bos and Churchill.
"The French have relatively low requirements, which is to return to Europe. With the bottom line you provided before, it didn't take me long to reach a consensus with Ambrose. The British are indeed more troublesome. The key is that Churchill has a big appetite, but it's okay. Because the Americans terminated their plan to send troops to North Africa, Montgomery was under great pressure. When I arrived in New Delhi, Montgomery asked Churchill for some equipment. Based on the bottom line you gave, after some bargaining, Churchill finally agreed to our offer. Request." Traveling around Southeast Asia and West Asia for a month and a half, Song Ziwen's skin color was much darker than before the trip, and he was also a little thinner, but his energy was very good, and he had a tendency to talk endlessly once he opened his mouth.
In this regard, Ouyang Yun played the role of a loyal listener,
Song Ziwen does have reason to be high-spirited, not to mention that his move will definitely go down in history and be remembered forever by the people of the country. Simply because of the country's international status, he can enjoy the treatment of VIPs in front of Ang Bos and Churchill, which is enough for a powerful country. The foreign minister was so addicted that he felt that the trip was worth it.
"The British are training a new army. I heard it is a mixed force of British and Indians. Have you seen it?" When Song Ziwen took a break to drink tea to quench his thirst, Ouyang Yun interjected,
From a national perspective, Ouyang Yun certainly hopes that the armies of other allies except China will be vulnerable, so even though he knows that the British army cannot be on the stage, he still can't help but ask such a question,
"Prime Minister Churchill once invited me to inspect it. Haha, it's not that I'm being conceited. It's still very different from our National Defense Forces. If nothing else, let's just say that the queue is not impressive at all." Song Ziwen said with a smile,
"What about the weapons and equipment situation?"
"I asked their officers. There are two most elite corps, all equipped with weapons and equipment sold by our country. However, the British complained that there were too few tanks. The rest were either equipped with beautiful weapons or equipped with equipment produced by themselves. Yes, Prime Minister, there is no need to worry. From my layman’s point of view, this so-called new British army is useless.”
"Since you said it's unusable, it really is unusable. By the way, what's the situation like with the French? I heard that De Gaulle is establishing the so-called 'Free Army'."
Song Ziwen pondered for a while and said: "I have also heard about the Free Army. It was said by one of Angpos's subordinates. It seems that Angpos has a strong opinion on this and thinks that General de Gaulle wants to compete with him for control of the Restoration Government. I know That’s all.”
Ouyang Yun snorted, frowned slightly and asked, "What does de Gaulle think of the United Nations?"
"When I was discussing this issue with Ambos, he was present, but he did not express his opinion. However, he looked a little hesitant. I asked Ambos in private, and he told me not to worry, saying that fighting France Completely under his control..."
"That's it." Ouyang Yun said, frowning.
From a personal perspective, Ouyang Yun actually admired de Gaulle, but from a national perspective, he did not want to see a wise and wise leader emerge in France. This was the fundamental reason why he supported Ambois at all costs.
