Ouyang Yun was silent, but Churchill was very unhappy. He realized that his previous proposal might be invalidated. He smoked wildly, looked at Ouyang Yun and then at Roosevelt, and thought to himself: Roosevelt is to the Chinese people.
Great, you have to know that Britain is the most reliable ally of the United States. [Fly] No, no, we must get the support of the United States on Myanmar affairs. Maybe I should ask McIntyre for help.
Ouyang Yun didn't know that Roosevelt admired the military model so much because he saw the shadow of the "Hundred Days New Deal" in this model. The reason why the United States was able to get out of the economic crisis quickly was due to the "Hundred Days New Deal". And the "Hundred Days New Deal" was indispensable.
In Roosevelt's view, a national government with unified political orders and a just war ongoing by the allies is necessary. And if the "student army model" can be extended to the whole country, then this ancient country will definitely be able to rejuvenate, and it will definitely be able to
Play a greater role in the war against Japan.
There is a reason why Roosevelt was so eager in national affairs. The Japanese army has embarked on a different path due to the influence of Koizumi Miichiro. Koizumi Miichiro's personal ability can only be considered average, but he is better than having a golden finger.
At that time and space, the Japanese army followed a militaristic route. Relying on a complete reserve system, the Japanese army could easily organize ten or twenty divisions at the beginning of its march into Southeast Asia. This was also the main reason why the Japanese army was able to maintain a rapid momentum at the beginning of the war.
.However, after that, its shortcomings became apparent - with the loss of all the elite troops on the front line, the Japanese army had to start recruiting civilians without systematic training. As a result, the combat effectiveness of the troops became lower and lower as they fought. The "Emperor", known as the second strongest army in the world,
The "military" has also become a "vegetable army" that can be bullied by everyone. Koizumi Minichiro studied this issue before time travel. After finding the idol of Yamamoto Isoroku, he exerted influence on the Japanese military through Sanbon Isoroku.
, quietly transforming the "Imperial Army". To break down Koizumi Minichiro's contribution to the Japanese army, one is the upgrading of weapons, and then there is the improvement of the reserve system and the improvement of tactics and tactics.
Not to mention the Navy, with the Navy's Iron Triangle headed by Mitsumasa Yoneuchi at the helm, almost every reasonable suggestion made by Koizumi has been implemented. However, the Army has experienced some twists and turns.
Take the reserve force as an example. Japan’s reserve system is already very complete, so when Koizumi Minichiro proposed to carry out regular military training in schools, factories, mines and enterprises, and rural areas, he was unanimously opposed by the cabinet at first. Nothing else, because Koizumi required training
Most of the students were over 40 years old. At that time, the Japanese army was not facing too much pressure on soldiers, so in the eyes of some cabinet ministers, this move was an inappropriate move that would stifle the future of the empire and create domestic panic.
The resistance encountered in tactics was even greater. The senior Japanese generals were extremely stubborn and superstitious about their three-axe tactics of aircraft, artillery and tanks. Therefore, no matter how Koizumi Minichiro presented the facts and reasoned, the likes of Seishiro Itagaki and Hideki Tojo just couldn't.
They were willing to accept the fact that the Imperial Army's tactics were outdated. In order to counterattack the Navy Ministry, they even elevated it to a level that concerned the face of the Yamato nation, saying that the Navy Ministry was destroying their own prestige and boosting the ambitions of others.
The high-level army officials were entangled, which made Koizumi extremely chilling. As he left for Southeast Asia, he clapped his hands and ignored it. However, Mitsumasa Yoneuchi and Isoroku Yamamoto never gave up their efforts. With the target of military training during the Spring Festival last year
The Japanese army's New Year's Eve strategy ended with a huge defeat for the Imperial Army. The front-line commanders of the Japanese Army suddenly discovered that the Imperial Army's combat power was not as good as that of the weak Chinese people. This made them finally realize the importance of tactics. So Umezu Mijiro
It was first tried on the Kwantung Army, and the results were obvious. Especially after the Type 15 semi-automatic rifle was installed, in a military friction with the Soviet and Mongolian front forces, the Kwantung Army actually won with fewer enemies and more enemies. This immediately aroused the concern of the Ministry of War.
High attention. As a result, not only the training of new tactics and tactics was implemented throughout the army, but Koizumi's reserve system was also vigorously developed in Japan.
When the Japanese military carried out these two reforms, it claimed that it would use a year of dormancy in exchange for a longer-lasting outbreak, so it was carried out very covertly and did not attract the attention of the Allies. Until the U.S. intelligence agency obtained a copy of the Japanese military plan to
The U.S. intelligence agency traced the origin of these troops to the intelligence of fifteen additional divisions in Southeast Asia. However, they were surprised when they did not investigate. The relevant information surfaced, and just as the Australian war situation was in danger, Roosevelt immediately became anxious.
Ouyang Yun's meditation lasted for a full quarter of an hour, and just when Churchill felt extremely impatient, he raised his head and said to Roosevelt: "Mr. President, your suggestion is very tempting to me, but I think it is difficult to implement it in practice.
It’s too high and almost impossible to achieve.”
Ouyang Yun actually wanted to put it more bluntly - the current country has an anti-Japanese united front in name, but in fact it is still Chiang Kai-shek who has the final say. This is not the most important thing. The key to the problem is that he
This kind of decision-making by one person is not what the public expects. He relies only on force deterrence and various means, so he has to worry that once the Xuebing Army is involved, it will cause chaos or even the outbreak of civil war.
That would be too much of a loss.
The reason why the Xuebing Army was able to form a de facto separatist situation in the three southern provinces relied most heavily on its highly independent financial, economic and industrial strength. This kind of hard power is enough to support the three southern provinces, but it is definitely not enough to support the entire country.
Ouyang Yun was very self-aware. Based on the above considerations, although the cake presented by Roosevelt was very tempting, he decided to reject it resolutely.
Ouyang Yun's attitude disappointed Roosevelt. A strong army is powerful, but with too few troops, the role it can play is naturally limited. Moreover, if Ouyang Yun does not have big domestic ambitions, then it is difficult to convince him
Giving up on the Philippines would definitely be more difficult. However, Roosevelt was different from Churchill in that he was very good at hiding his true emotions. Without letting his disappointment show on his face, he continued to smile and said: "Maybe I don't know much about your country's national conditions.
But I really hope that Xuebingjun’s policies can benefit people across the country.”
Ouyang Yun has a strong learning ability and has completely adapted to this situation. He smiled in kind and thanked Roosevelt again for his concern for the people of the country. Then they changed the subject and started talking about the ongoing wars in Europe, Asia and Africa, and each other.
Exchange views and quietly inquire about the other party's bottom line in the negotiation.
After being silent for nearly two hours, Churchill finally couldn't help but join in. In the hall, as the music sounded, people began to dance together, and the banquet seemed to have become completely simple.
