Chapter five hundred and seventieth: Truman is in trouble
Under the coalition government, national affairs are flourishing, which will naturally gain the support of the vast majority of the people. Under this premise, the high-level political model of virtual president and real prime minister does not seem to be unacceptable. Lao Chiang Kai-shek has been low-key and cooperative in this matter
, Ouyang Yun certainly did not mind increasing his exposure. Therefore, in the presence of journalists, this passage was quickly published in the newspapers and triggered a wave of public opinion.
Since ancient times, Chinese people have had the tendency to have the heaven overtake the country. This kind of situation has been developed to the extreme and is reflected in diplomacy, that is, when they are weak, they become stronger when they are strong, and they become weaker. Even many democratic parties who claim to be disciples of saints generally have Kong Yiji's shortcomings.
They are submissive in front of them, but they scold their mothers behind their backs. When facing the great powers, they not only act like slaves, but also refuse to see the toughness of others. This morbid mentality is actually the standard attitude of a weak country and small people.
Under the coalition government, China's foreign policy has always been tough. In the eyes of ordinary people, this toughness is naturally a matter of honor. However, because of the glory brought by this toughness, it is more and more compared to the democratic parties who are disciples of saints.
Then, Kong Yiji's problem broke out, and they would not say bad words, but would do everything possible to collect evidence to prove that their slave's face was correct.
This kind of ideological thing involves millions or even tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of people. Ouyang Yun wants to change but is unable to change it. He can only boil the frog in warm water and let out a little bit of news today and say a few cruel words the next day.
to carry out transformation. And after these years of hard work, not to mention other places, at least in the south and Chongqing, the backbone of the Chinese people is getting straighter and straighter. For example, in Guangzhou, the vast majority of the people are against the Sino-Soviet war. They take it for granted.
He thinks: "Old Maozi has been riding on our heads and domineering us, it's time to teach them a lesson!"
Chinese public opinion became agitated because of the conversation between Ouyang Yun and Chiang Kai-shek. Western spies hardly needed to use any special means to understand the true attitude of the Chinese government on the Sino-Soviet war. Relevant reports were quickly released
He was sent to the desks of Stalin, Truman and others.
Truman's life was not easy. In the final analysis, the United States represents the interests of the big capitalists. Although there are many true patriots among these people, the reason why the vast majority of them are willing to go to war with China is just for business.
The profit is the hope of making another war fortune. For these big capitalists, war is actually a kind of business, and it is the kind where the money comes in very quickly and the profits are very high. The reason why they are willing to support the Truman government, Japan, and the United Kingdom
There is also an alliance between the Soviet Union and Russia to jointly fight China, and they only focus on the resource-rich islands and markets around the Pacific. In addition, the Four-Nation Alliance needs them to provide most of the weapons and equipment, which is a business in itself, so
, even if there is a slight possibility of winning, they still think it is a good deal.
I originally thought it was a sure-profit business, but as the Pacific Fleet was once again wiped out, some big capitalists quit. Yes, war is the fastest-growing business, but it also requires upfront preparation.
Invest! In business, initial investment is necessary. However, if additional investment is required and repeated, can you still make money? Repeated additional investment is enough, but the problem is that even if you increase the investment, you will not see any profit at all.
I hope those big capitalists are not fools. Who is willing to do it again and again?!
There are common interests among the big capitalists. It doesn't matter to the U.S. government if one of them quits, but if two, three or even a group of them quit, Truman will not be able to hold on. You know, this battle has been going on until now.
The U.S. treasury has been empty for a long time, and now it is relying entirely on the issuance of war bonds. The problem comes again. The reason why Americans are willing to buy war bonds certainly has patriotism factors, but in the final analysis it is because they believe that the government can fight
Win this war. However, the fact is that now the United States is losing again and again. If things go on like this, not to mention the ordinary Americans who use it as a means to be cash-strapped. Even if they still have money, they have to think about it for the future of their own family.
Can I still buy this bond?
Yes, the third reconstruction of the Pacific Fleet was only halfway through. As several big capitalists gave up their picks, triggering a civil war bond panic, the Truman administration could no longer survive.
The once world's largest industrial power is now unable to maintain daily military production. Not many people in the world believe it. However, this is the fact before Truman. Upon closer inspection, when this situation occurs in the United States, Ouyang Yunhe
His student army "takes the greatest credit".
In that time and space, the Americans did assist many Allied countries with a number of military supplies for the anti-fascist cause. But at the same time, their arms dealers and other businessmen also obtained large orders from other Allied countries. In other words, at that time and space, the United States was
The world's largest supplier of arms and military supplies.
What about this time and space? The strong rise of the Xuebingjun series of weapons and equipment suddenly outshone the American series of weapons and equipment. As a result, not only the United Kingdom, the Soviet Union, but also France began to purchase weapons and equipment from China, and even the United States itself also
It has to be so. Although the Americans revised their foreign policy in a timely manner and quickly completed the transformation from China's ally to its enemy. However, it has become an indisputable fact that American weapons are not as good as Chinese weapons. The U.S. military has no choice but to continue
Use their own weapons, but the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom, even if they can no longer obtain Chinese weapons, are no longer superstitious about American weapons. This directly led to a significant reduction in orders from domestic military factories in the United States. Naturally, it severely frustrated those big capitalists who continued to use their own weapons.
investment enthusiasm.
"Anyone who offends China will be punished no matter how far away he is! Are the Chinese declaring war on the world?" Truman was already in a bad mood. When he heard the Chinese government's strong declaration, he realized that the war would continue and that the United States could no longer sustain it.
His face suddenly turned black.
The American-led offensive on the Palau Islands has now turned into a stalemate due to the lack of strong naval cooperation. With land bases in the Philippines and Indonesia available, the Americans can dispatch large-scale fighter planes to participate in the battle to seize the Palau Islands. However,
Because of the existence of China's Pacific Fleet, the Americans have never been able to transport a large-scale landing force, and naturally they have been unable to recover Palau.
"Will Stalin go to full-scale war with China? No, from the interests of the United States, we must let him do so. Only in this way can we reduce the pressure on us in the Pacific! However, Stalin is not Koizumi Toshiichiro, and he can be satisfied at any price.
, it seems that we must prepare for heavy bleeding!" Truman said this when discussing the Sino-Soviet war with Donovan.
