The plan drawn up by Yue Weihan to reorganize the expeditionary force was quickly submitted to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. This was actually just a formality. Yue Weihan was now the commander-in-chief of the Allied Southeast Asian Theater. With his rank, he had no control over the Chinese Expeditionary Force.
Adjustments in establishment and personnel no longer need to be submitted to Chairman Chiang for approval.
Chairman Chiang did not believe that he had the ability to change Yue Weihan's decision.
If Chairman Chiang really had the ability to do this, he would have directly ordered the Chinese Expeditionary Force to be transferred back to the country. Anyway, Burma has been captured now, and the lifeline of the Yunnan-Burma Highway has been re-opened. Instead of dominating Burma to blame
British people, it is better to simply be a favor and return the favor to the British people, and avoid the revenge of the Japanese to preserve their vitality.
Chairman Chiang was naturally aware of Yue Weihan's insidious intentions of dividing and winning over, but the arrow was already on the string. At this time, Chairman Chiang just wanted to change his decision and could no longer keep the 11th Group Army and the 20th Group Army in the country. Chairman Chiang
If he really wants to do this, he will break the trust of the millions of officers and soldiers of the Communist Party of China, and he will also break the trust of the 40 million people across the country. By then, it will not only be his personal prestige that will be damaged, but also his leadership.
Your status will also be shaken as a result.
With no other choice, Chairman Chiang had no choice but to send secret messages to Wang Lingyun, Huang Jie and other generals to reassure them.
While Chairman Chiang was busy appeasing the senior generals in the two armies who had suffered losses due to reorganization, Yue Weihan was also busy managing the political situation in Myanmar. His special status as Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Southeast Asia Theater determined how Yue Weihan considered the issue.
Time can no longer be limited to the military perspective, he must learn to consider issues from a political perspective.
There is nothing to worry about the current political situation in Myanmar, and the attitude of the British can almost be ignored.
Although Myanmar is a British colony and is rich in strategic resources such as oil, iron ore, rubber, and timber, compared with India, the "crown jewel", Myanmar seems a bit insignificant. With the current strength of the United Kingdom, it can maintain
The pearl of India is already struggling, and for Myanmar, the UK is really unable to do so.
The attitude of the Americans is also very clear. As long as the Chinese can defeat the Japanese, it is not impossible to lease Luzon (Philippines) to the Chinese Expeditionary Force for temporary use. Therefore, before the end of World War II, Yue Weihan can do it.
Relying on his status as "Commander-in-Chief of the Southeast Asian Theater", he implemented military dictatorship over the entire Southeast Asia.
Therefore, there is nothing to worry about the current political situation in Myanmar. What Yue Weihan needs to worry about is the future political situation in Myanmar!
World War II cannot go on forever. With the United States joining the war, the countdown to the demise of Japan has entered. After the demise of Japan, the situation in Asia will need to undergo a subversive reshuffle. Historically, due to the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party
, China lost a great opportunity to grab the dividends of the war, but now, Yue Weihan will never let such a thing happen again.
Myanmar is located on the southwest border of China, with the Indian Ocean to the left and the Indochina Peninsula to the right. Its strategic location is extremely important. Whether from geopolitical considerations or practical interests, Myanmar in the future can only belong to China, even if it cannot become
A coastal province of China must also be a republic of the Federation of China.
However, China obviously does not have the strength to annex Myanmar at present, and the time is not ripe.
If China blatantly annexes Myanmar now, it will definitely greatly irritate the nerves of the British and even anger the Americans. This is undoubtedly quite unwise.
However, it is necessary and necessary to prepare for the future annexation of Myanmar.
In Yue Weihan's view, the top priority is to do two things. One is to support the Kachin Party members to come to power and form a puppet government; the other is to help overseas Chinese in Myanmar inject capital to control Myanmar's railways, crude oil, iron ore, rubber and other key areas. The strength and strength of overseas Chinese in Myanmar are
There is no doubt about his ability. When the British ruled Myanmar, the overseas Chinese in Myanmar had no chance to get involved in these key areas. Now that Yue Weihan has become the "Turk Emperor" of the entire Southeast Asia, the overseas Chinese finally have the opportunity to show their talents.
…………
Yangon, Chinese Expeditionary Force Headquarters.
Yue Weihan was having a discussion with overseas Chinese leaders such as Tan Kah Kee, Zhuang Xiyan, Li Qingquan and Li Qiu Lian in the conference room. The atmosphere of the meeting seemed very lively. Even Mr. Tan Kah Kee, who was extremely cultivated, would express his opinions from time to time.
Use rich body language to enhance your appeal.
This symposium was actually just an intentional discussion, but its impact on later generations of Myanmar was huge.
Because it was during this symposium that the amount of capital injection and the distribution pattern of business shares for overseas Chinese in Nanyang were initially determined. After this symposium, four transnational consortiums that could almost affect China's political structure began to take shape, and in
After that, in just a few years, it quickly controlled all key areas in Southeast Asia!
After reaching a preliminary intention with overseas Chinese in Nanyang, Yue Weihan went to Yangon Airport to welcome President Roosevelt's special envoy.
A few days ago, a suggestion put forward by Yue Weihan received great attention from the US government. President Roosevelt even sent a special envoy for this purpose.
Yue Weihan suggested operating Myanmar as a logistics base for the Allied forces, with the U.S. government assisting in industrial equipment and technical strength, and then using Chinese labor, Indian iron ore, and Myanmar coal to produce aircraft, tanks, and even warships and other weapons and equipment on a large scale.
It can supply the Chinese Expeditionary Force in the Southeast Asian battlefield, and it can also supply the Allied forces in the North African battlefield nearby!
This made the U.S. government and President Roosevelt quite excited, because Myanmar has a superior geographical location and all industrial resources can be obtained nearby. Once the logistics base is built, the Chinese Expeditionary Force’s logistical support will hardly require the U.S. government to bear the burden. In this way, the U.S.
The government can be completely freed and devote more strategic resources to the European battlefield.
However, President Roosevelt preferred that the U.S. government directly construct the construction, and then the Chinese Army be responsible for the protection, while Yue Weihan preferred that the U.S. government provide industrial equipment and technical personnel to assist the Chinese Expeditionary Force in construction.
The differences in this aspect are still relatively large, and Americans are also very cautious.
Americans must be cautious, because this is not hundreds of millions of dollars in arms aid, but large-scale industrial aid!
No matter how large the amount of arms assistance is, it is only a one-time consumable. Once it is consumed, it is gone. If allies want to get more, they have to spend money to buy it from the US government. However, large-scale industrial assistance is not the same.
Once we help the Chinese Expeditionary Force build a logistics base in Myanmar, not only will the Chinese Expeditionary Force’s logistical support be worry-free, but Myanmar’s industrial base and military production capacity will also suddenly reach a new level, directly realizing industrialization!
If Myanmar becomes independent after the war, it will directly become an industrial power. Its industrial manufacturing capacity will even far exceed that of any country in Asia. China has more than 10 million square kilometers of land and a population of 450 million, but it can
In terms of industrial manufacturing capacity, I am afraid that it will not even reach a fraction of Myanmar's by then.
Of course, Americans are very doubtful that Myanmar can achieve victory.
If the Chinese Expeditionary Force stays in Myanmar, then Myanmar is likely to become a province of China. By then, China's industrial capabilities and military industry levels will have made a qualitative leap. It will be fine if China keeps in step with the United States.
, if the two countries are at odds with each other, then the U.S. government will really shoot itself in the foot.
Therefore, the U.S. government must be cautious about this matter. According to the usual pragmatic attitude of Americans, they must conduct a comprehensive assessment of possible risks in the future and then come up with a feasibility report. Once the report shows that the risks outweigh the benefits, then the U.S. government and
President Roosevelt would give up without hesitation.
Yue Weihan's attitude is also very firm. Direct construction by the US government is impossible!
If we really do this, won’t Burma become a colony of the United States? Burma was taken back from the Japanese army by the Chinese Expeditionary Force. Although the US Air Force also played a big role, the decisive force is still the Chinese Expeditionary Force. There has always been no one in this world.
Without a free lunch, it is delusional for the British to get something for nothing, and the same cannot be said for the Americans.
Americans care about their own national interests, so why doesn’t Yue Weihan care about China’s national interests?
If it is impossible to reach an agreement, Yue Weihan would rather give up this plan, or find a way to seize industrial equipment from the Japanese and build it slowly. Anyway, luring wolves into the house is absolutely forbidden.
As a time traveler, Yue Weihan is very clear about the future international situation. The British Empire is already declining and its glory is gone, but the United States is going to lead the trend for the next hundred years. Once the United States controls Myanmar, it will be a stick in the belly of China.
A sharp knife in the weak side. At the critical moment, this sharp knife will kill China.
…………
Negotiations with the U.S. envoy lasted all day and ended on bad terms.
Stilwell, who participated in the entire negotiation, could only express regret because he was an American and could not help Yue Weihan in asking the U.S. government to make concessions.
In the evening, Yue Weihan returned "home" depressedly and saw Helen teaching Huzi how to play baseball.
Baseball is the largest ball game in the United States, but with Huzi’s small arms now, it is basically wishful thinking to hit a home run. Huzi swung more than a dozen shots, but only two of them were effective hits. However, this is still
This attracted cheers from Liu Xin, Yuhu and Li Meng who were watching, as well as Reuters reporter Avril.
This British beauty seemed to want to explore Yue Weihan's romantic affair, especially when she learned that Helen was also Yue Weihan's public lover, she was even more shocked. You must know that in the values of the Western world, spouses or lovers are the only ones. Although in reality
That's not the case, but at least it appears that way.
But Helen got along very well with Liu Xin and the others, which completely overturned Avril's perception.
Therefore, Avril wanted to know what kind of charm Yue Weihan had, which could make several Chinese women who are considered to be the most beautiful in the world and Helen, the first heir to the United States Steel Corporation, also commit themselves to him? This
After some research, Avril discovered that Yue Weihan was really quite lethal to women.
"My dear, you're back." When Helen saw Yue Weihan, she kissed him passionately.
Yue Weihan looked a little tired and sat down on a wicker chair in the yard. Li Meng, who was still a private health doctor, quickly stepped forward and gently massaged Yue Weihan's left and right temples with her soft, boneless hands.
*Pinching it, Yue Weihan couldn't help but close his eyes comfortably, and leaned his head back on Li Meng's bulging breasts.
"My dear, you seem a little unhappy?" Helen followed and sat next to Yue Weihan and asked with concern.
"Isn't it because of you Americans?" Yue Weihan breathed a sigh of relief and said angrily, "You Americans are really realistic. As long as it doesn't involve national interests, you can say anything. But once national interests are involved, there will be no concessions.
No matter what, after talking for a whole day, my skin is almost worn out, but the person just won’t give in."
"Yue, it seems that you still don't understand the United States well enough." Helen leaned against Yue Weihan, and then whispered softly into Yue Weihan's ear, "The United States is a democratic country, and all major decisions must be discussed by Congress and then made by the Congress.
The president makes the decision, and members of Congress and the president are all elected by the people, so if you want to get the support of the U.S. government, you must first get the support of the American people."
"Huh?" Yue Weihan's heart suddenly moved slightly when he heard this.
Previously, Yue Weihan was able to become the commander-in-chief of the Chinese Expeditionary Force only with the help of the American people!
At that time, after Helen received Yue Weihan's overseas telegram, she shot a special promotional video about China's Anti-Japanese War as quickly as possible. The result was that it successfully aroused great sympathy from the American people. Under the surging public sentiment, the US government followed suit.
Pressure was exerted on the Nationalist Government, but Chairman Chiang surrendered.
Not long ago, the promotional short film "The Horn of Counterattack Has Blowed" shot by Helen once again ignited the enthusiasm of the American people, directly prompting the U.S. government and President Roosevelt to increase their support for the Chinese Expeditionary Force, and the equipment to assist the Chinese Expeditionary Force was also provided by
The initial 15 technicians increased to 30 technicians.
However, this time we want to persuade the U.S. government to carry out large-scale industrial assistance in Myanmar. How to mobilize the Communist Party?
In a flash, Yue Weihan thought of a war report this morning. The war report said that the U.S.-Philippine coalition forces besieged by the Japanese army on the Bataan Peninsula in the Philippines were in a desperate situation of running out of ammunition and food. MacArthur also once again rejected the U.S. defense plan.
Despite the Ministry's order requiring him to evacuate in advance, he insisted on coexisting with the 75,000 Allied officers and soldiers trapped on the Bataan Peninsula.
This may be an opportunity. If the Chinese Expeditionary Force can rescue MacArthur and 75,000 Allied officers and soldiers trapped in the Bataan Peninsula, the American people's love for Yue Weihan and the Chinese Expeditionary Force will definitely reach unprecedented heights. By then,
The American people will unreservedly support the U.S. government in aiding the construction of bases in Myanmar.
