The conference room on the first floor of Liu Yimin's residence in the Eastern General Headquarters is the original conference room on the first floor of the Kwantung Army Commander's residence. It can accommodate 150 people and is extremely luxuriously decorated. At this time, the indoor lights are bright, and the generals of China and the United States are reflected on the white walls.
The reflection looks shadowy and overlapping with various patterns, a bit like the paintings of the Imagist painters.
After listening to the translation, Major General Carl Spartz, commander of the 20th Air Force of the U.S. Army, did not speak for a long time. He may be shocked, or he may be thinking.
Colonel Boredh conversed in a low voice with Major General Carl Spartz.
Liu Yimin's martial arts skills were so high and his consciousness was so clear. He could clearly hear what Red and Major General Carl Spartz said. He sat there with a smile on his face, seemingly not paying attention to the beautiful blonde Claire.
demeanor.
After talking softly for a while, Major General Carl Spartz said: "Dear General Liu, thank you for your sincerity. I want to know if your army has provided us with so much help. Is there any exchange condition?"
Major General Carl Spartz is worthy of being a major general, and he considers problems very thoughtfully. No wonder he was able to become the commander of the US Army's Strategic Air Force during World War II and was promoted to general!
There is never a free lunch in the world! Americans who are good at doing business know this best!
The smile on Liu Yimin's face became even thicker. He felt that Major General Carl Spartz was really a smart man, and it was great to deal with smart people!
I heard Liu Yimin say: "General Karl, the road from northern Shaanxi to northeastern China is long, and there are no roads or railways. Our army lacks cars, and transportation of oil and gasoline relies on horse-drawn carriages and donkey carts. We also have to be prepared for the Japanese army in North China to intercept and intercept
Indiscriminate bombing, it can be said that the oil transported from northern Shaanxi to the Northeast is not oil, but the blood and lives of the Chinese people. The reason why we transport oil at the cost of our lives has only one purpose, and that is to defeat the Japanese invaders as soon as possible
!The core and most critical factor why our army took the risk of being wiped out by the Kwantung Army and marched northward into the Northeast was to eliminate the effective strength of the Japanese army, delay the Japanese army's crazy march southward, and reduce the pressure on the US military on the Pacific battlefield. It is the US military that can
Complete mobilization quickly and shift to counter-offensive. General Carr must report this clearly to the U.S. Department of the Army, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, President Roosevelt, and Secretary of State Hull."
After listening to the translation, Major General Carl Spartz nodded repeatedly and kept saying 0k.
Just when Major General Carl Spartz thought that Liu Yimin had no exchange conditions, he heard Liu Yimin continue to say: "As for the exchange conditions, it is very simple, five points: First, the US military will help us build a new aircraft carrier, cruiser, destroyer
, a naval fleet of minesweepers, submarines, transport ships, and supply ships, for use in the war against Japan. Second, we require the right to produce American jet destroyers, long-range bombers, and equip our air force. The same is for use in the war against Japan.
Third, our army demands the right to have priority in landing in Japan. The Japanese devils have done all kinds of bad things in China, often committing massacres and raping women and massacring them on the spot. The Chinese people suffered the most from the Japanese invaders and suffered the greatest losses, which was a great blow to Japan.
What I hate the most is that our troops must land in Japan and control Japan. Of course, we can discuss this with our American friends, that is, the Chinese and American troops will jointly land in Japan, and China and the United States will jointly discuss post-war Japan's management matters. At the very least,
Japan must be completely deprived of its military power. Japan must not be allowed to have an independent army. Fourthly, after our army destroys the Kwantung Army, please ask the United States to first announce its recognition of our army's recovery of Mongolia and the lost territory in the Far East, and recognize that the above-mentioned territories are our country's inherent territory and belong to our country.
, Sacred and inviolable! Fifth, we asked the United States to implement the content originally discussed with Colonel Bauer as soon as possible, provide assistance to us, and help us eliminate the Japanese troops that invaded China as soon as possible."
These five exchange conditions will be very big conditions in later generations, and each one will set off huge waves. But the situation is different now. The US military was beaten to a pulp by the Japanese army. Even MacArthur, the top commander of the US military in the Philippines, left behind those who stayed in the Philippines.
The troops fled to Australia alone and watched helplessly as the American troops stationed in the Philippines became prisoners. At this time, the Americans hated little Japan so much that they just wanted to blow them to pieces with bombs! At this time, these conditions put forward by Liu Yimin may not be anything in the eyes of the Americans.
The important conditions, at least, are not very harsh. For example, regarding the production of warships and aircraft, because of the Lend-Lease Act, the United States has provided so many warships and aircraft to its allies, and no Americans have even frowned. Another example is the matter of landing in Japan.
The Americans were so excited by Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor and the occupation of Southeast Asia that they wished they could occupy Tokyo now! As for recognizing Outer Mongolia and the Far East as belonging to Chinese territory, it was a favor for the United States. The Soviet Union signed the "Japan-Soviet Friendship and Neutrality" with Japan.
Treaty, recognizing that these territories belong to the Puppet Manchukuo, and the Nationalist Government also announced that the above-mentioned territories belong to the Republic of China. What does the United States have to disagree with? To be honest, Liu Yimin only wanted to confirm the recovered territory from a legal perspective by raising this condition.
, let the international community recognize it! This matter was originally done by the Foreign Minister of the Nationalist Government, and Liu Yimin did it for him.
Perhaps with the authorization of the U.S. State Department, Major General Carl Spartz also put forward his own conditions after hearing the conditions proposed by Liu Yimin: "Dear General Liu, I would like to ask a question, can you allow the Pacific Fleet of the United States to
Do you want to use Vladivostok and Dalian as your base?"
Without waiting for the American translator to translate, Liu Yimin's eyebrows suddenly stood up, and his eyes pierced Major General Carl Spartz like knives. Major General Carl Spartz had never seen such a sharp look in his eyes, and he closed his eyes unconsciously.
Eyes, like a child who said something wrong, murmured to himself: "My God!"
After the translator finished, Liu Yimin said: "Our military can promise that during the war, the U.S. Pacific Fleet can dock at Vladivostok and Port Arthur at any time to receive the protection of our ground air defense firepower and obtain the daily supplies provided by our military. The U.S. military
The 20th Air Force can use all the airports of our army, and its headquarters can be located in Changchun, in the same building as our headquarters. However, these are used during wartime, and the purpose is to closely cooperate between the two armies and eliminate our common enemy, the Japanese.
, the U.S. military does not have the right to use Vladivostok, Port Arthur or any port city in the Far East as a naval base. The fleet must obtain approval from our military to dock at Northeastern ports. Once the war is over, all U.S. warships and aircraft in China must evacuate unconditionally! This matter
No room for negotiation!”
After Yang Dalin finished translating, Liu Yimin added: "Since the Opium War, the great powers have pursued colonial policies in China, seriously trampling on China's full strength and hurting the feelings of the Chinese people. The reason why Japan dared to invade China unscrupulously was because of the great powers that colonized China.
, the policy of carving up China is inextricably linked. Now, it is the great anti-fascist war that has brought us together and sat together. China and the United States are now allies fighting against fascist aggression, and the Chinese and American armies are fighting side by side.
Friendly troops, you and I are comrades in arms who share life and death. I think the greatest wish of you and the United States of America you represent is to hope that the Chinese and Chinese troops can become a strong fortress to eliminate the Japanese army. The United States never wants to see China and the Chinese army.
The Japanese army was vulnerable to the Japanese attack, allowing the Japanese army to mobilize more troops to attack westward and even blockade the west coast of the United States. Our greatest wish is to eliminate the invaders and strive for national independence and national liberation. If the invaders are defeated
, we are still unable to achieve true territorial integrity and sovereignty, then all our sacrifices and struggles will become meaningless. We will not fight the wolf through the front door and enter the tiger through the back door! Not only is the US military unable to establish a presence in China after the war
Base. No army in the world, including the Soviet army, can establish a base on Chinese territory. That is not allowed by our dignity! Please the U.S. government and the U.S. military respect the Chinese people’s desire for national independence and don’t mention it
Such an unreasonable request!”
These words were spoken with righteousness and righteousness. They represented the fundamental views of our army, but the smell of gunpowder was very strong. After the translation, Major General Carl Spartz's face turned red and his tone was a bit stammering: "Dear General Liu. The Pacific Fleet is stationed in Vladivostok.
The establishment of a naval base can protect China's coastline from infringement. We have good intentions! Maybe you don't know that Secretary of State Hull wrote to your country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs last year, stating that relevant matters between China and the United States can be negotiated under fair conditions.
The issue of rights and interests. What I said about establishing a naval base in Vladivostok is purely out of the need to maintain security in the Pacific and has no other meaning."
As soon as the translator finished, Liu Yimin became furious, slapped his hand on the table, and shouted loudly: "No! No one can build a military base on Chinese territory! If the United States insists on having its own way, our army will no longer cooperate with the US military."
Cooperate, you can go back to the United States and wait to be bombed by the Japanese! Even if the United States has the power to defeat the Japanese army alone in the future, it will not be allowed to establish a naval base on our territory. Our army will consider it an invasion. All invaders will be attacked by our army.
Will be destroyed!"
Major General Carl Spartz's words were translated. Chen Yun, Luo Ronghuan, as well as Feng Dafei and Xue Junmin who were present all heard clearly. As soon as Liu Yimin finished speaking, Chen Yun actually took the lead in applauding!
After listening to the translation and seeing everyone on the Chinese side applauding, Major General Carl Spartz finally said: "Okay, dear General Liu, please don't be angry, I take back what I said!"
Liu Yimin was happy now. He took out his cigarette, lit it and took a few puffs. Then he flicked the cigarette ashes and a smile appeared on his face. He said again: "This is right! Dear General Karl, we are comrades in arms now.
Is there no reason for comrades-in-arms to bully comrades-in-arms? Our conditions are all to defeat fascism. Your conditions are suspected of continuing to implement colonial policies. If I don’t get angry, don’t I deserve to be a Chinese Communist? Okay, this
Once the matter is over, never mention it. When our army completely eliminates the Japanese Kwantung Army and the U.S. Navy eliminates the main force of the Japanese navy, we can restore Sino-US routes, trade, mail and navigation, free trade, and friendly cooperation. In the future, China will also be prosperous and strong.
If we stand up, China and the United States can join forces to contribute to the peaceful development of the world!"
After Yang Dalin finished translating, Liu Yimin, who was in a good mood, added again: "General Karl just said something right, that is, Secretary of State Hull has written to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the National Government, proposing fair negotiations, which shows that the US government has understood
Realizing China's important role in the anti-fascist war, we are ready to abrogate all unequal treaties with China through negotiations. This is a good thing, and our army absolutely supports it. General Karl, do you think that in order to support their puppet government, the Japanese are doing
The Wang Jingwei puppet government is negotiating secretly to return the concession in China to the Wang puppet regime. Could it be that the great United States of America cannot even catch up with the knowledge of little Japan? Well, let’s not talk about this issue anymore. I believe in the politics of President Roosevelt and the American political leaders.
Wisdom, I believe in the friendship of the American people towards the Chinese people, and in the sincerity of the US military and our army to fight together. General Carr, do you have any other conditions?"
The next conversation was very pleasant, mainly about tactical issues such as coordination of command and intelligence sharing. The two sides agreed that the headquarters of the 20th Air Force would be located upstairs in the Changchun East General Headquarters, with the Commander-in-Chief of the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Democratic Alliance Air Force
Office of the Ministry of Air Force, Major General Carl Spartz and Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Democratic Alliance Air Force Commander Feng Dafei jointly commanded the air war against Japan, striving to completely eliminate the remnants of the Kwantung Army Aviation Group, seize air supremacy in the Northeast, and cooperate with our army to completely eliminate the Kwantung Army and the puppet Manchukuo
army, and then organized continuous bombing against Japan to support counterattacks in the entire Pacific battlefield.
In order to show the sincerity of our army, Liu Yimin pointed out a fatal flaw of the B17 bombers equipped by the 20th Air Force, that is, the unstable wings. He proposed that the Shenyang Arsenal could add two small wings to the B17 Sky Fortress to improve the B17's performance.
Security.
This problem is a technical problem that plagues the U.S. Air Force. Historically, the U.S. military organized technical research after discovering the problem in actual combat, and it was not solved until late 1943. Now that Liu Yimin put it to the point, Major General Carl Spartz was so excited that he stood up from his seat.
He stood up, ran towards Liu Yimin, gave him a warm hug, and urged Liu Yimin to order modifications for the B17 as soon as possible.
The American personnel, including Ruide Bao and Doolittle, now fully understood that our army was sincerely cooperating with the US military. Their emotions became very high, and the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became very harmonious.
The most embarrassing thing here is David, the Air Force Chief of Staff of the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Democratic Alliance. He is a retired U.S. Air Force instructor. He came to our army as a volunteer to help work and made great achievements. When Liu Yimin was furious just now, David was frightened.
He didn't even dare to raise his head, for fear that the meeting would end in a breakdown. Because David had been in our army for a long time, he knew Liu Yimin much more deeply than Major General Carl Spartz and others. He knew Liu Yimin's courage and courage.
He Cailue, and even more aware that Liu Yimin said the same thing, his attitude represents the attitude of our party. Once the talks between the two parties collapse, the losses will be huge.
At this time, David was also relaxed, with a smile on his face, and happily chatted with his American colleagues.
