Chapter 92 It’s over, someone stabbed me in the back (Second update, please collect it)
It doesn’t matter whether a crying child has milk to drink.
The important thing is that for the thorn head, there is always a need to appease the thorn head, especially when the thorn head is in need.
Besides, when others use this thorn as a knife.
Soon, the news was published in major newspapers such as Washington and New York.
"In order to assist the European battlefield, the Allied Command ordered that resources be diverted to Europe as much as possible, causing the airport used to bomb Tokyo to be suspended due to lack of funds."
This seemingly inconspicuous news immediately stimulated the United States. People's minds must know that the reason why they joined World War II was entirely to fight the Japanese devils and to avenge the Pearl Harbor.
In recent years, it has been either Europe or Russia.
Not many people mentioned the Pacific Ocean, and the people have long been dissatisfied. Now even the construction of the airport to bomb Tokyo has been stopped because there is no money. You must know that bombing Tokyo is the simplest and most direct wish of the American people. You have given a lot of resources to the United Kingdom and Russia, not to mention this. How can the people be willing to do so if their little wishes are killed?
Amidst the uproar in public opinion, Dewey, who was Roosevelt's rival, immediately stabbed himself in the face and criticized the government's "Europe First" policy through various channels. He also accused Roosevelt of playing with Americans' patriotism. The United States entered World War II because of Japan's sneak attack on "Pearl Harbor," but the government provided tens of billions of dollars in supplies to the United Kingdom, Russia, and even France, which had lost its country, received billions of dollars in supplies, while in Asia and Japan fought against China for twelve years and only received tens of millions of dollars in supplies.
Not only that, even the Marine Corps, which fought against the Japanese in the Pacific, also used old rifles from the last war and Lei Xing submachine guns that were full of malfunctions. Because they were number one in Europe, the U.S. military in the UK used them. Semi-automatic rifles basked in the sun, and the Marines in the Pacific fought hard against the Japanese with the weapons their fathers had squatted in the trenches in France and the jammed submachine guns.
"The blood of the British is blood, and the blood of the Russians is blood. Isn't the blood of our young men precious? The blood they shed on the Pacific Ocean is also blood!"
As a competitor Dewey, when he stabbed the knife, it was pointed at his lifeline. At the same time, I don’t know who handed him another knife. In the past two years, only one thousand rifles were actually shipped to China to aid China. !
The remaining guns have been detained and will not be shipped to China!
“I don’t care about the outcome of the Chinese battlefield at all. What I care about is Europe! And only Europe!”
Such stark words in Marshall’s telegram caused an uproar in public opinion, because what was being fought on the battlefield in China was the Japanese!
So there was a lot of accusations in the United States. This is how we fight the Japanese. The posters are all about killing the Japanese. But you fucking told me - you don’t care about the Japanese at all!
All the people’s hard-earned money was thrown into Europe.
Dewey's knives are sharp and sharp, and the data are detailed. In short, "The White House pursues "Europe's First" and has no intention of killing the Japanese!"
Knives are inserted directly into the White House. Directly targeting Luo Laizi, different accusations were made in the past. This time Dewey did provide real evidence.
"Who stabbed me in the back!"
Although Luo Zizi was extremely angry that Du Wei was able to get the Pentagon documents, at this time he was no longer angry and could solve the problem.
So much so that he had to throw out the Pentagon as a scapegoat, saying that Marshall had personal opinions and did not represent the White House. He also explained that the material distribution in the Concession Act was calculated by the Pentagon based on the intensity of the war. He tried every means to find excuses for himself.
In this regard, Dewey naturally refuted that De Gaulle, who was basking in the sun in the UK, got more than one billion US dollars a year for doing nothing, while China, which was fighting the Japanese devils every day, only got tens of millions of US dollars, so what should he pay back? Mom only delivered a thousand rifles to China!
Is this a fight against the Japanese?
He was clearly helping the Japanese to fight against his allies!
Not only are supplies withheld from being shipped to China, but last year they even directly transferred a large amount of the meager supplies to North Africa to aid China. Dewey's sword was three inches long, and Roosevelt was tired of dealing with it. In order to calm public opinion, while using the Pentagon as a scapegoat and ordering the replacement of the theater chief of staff, he even directly sent supplies originally intended to aid Britain and Russia to India, and Through the press conference, tell the Americans that we have transported another 1,000 tons of supplies to Kunming and Chengdu via the Hump Route today!
Of course, they won’t say that half of those supplies were shipped by China’s own people! Italian pilots are not transporting American supplies.
Just tell everyone they are aiding China.
As for the suspension of the construction of the airport, that is not a problem. It is not that the money is spent in Europe, but a problem of communication between the two parties.
Soon, under Roosevelt's direct intervention, the gold loan agreement was finally implemented, and it was even a blessing in disguise. The United States promised to provide no less than 1.5 billion US dollars in aid to support China's war in 1944, and guaranteed 1.5 billion US dollars in aid. The materials will be shipped to China. Unlike in the past, if they were shipped to India, it would be considered as aid to China.
Just when public opinion in the United States was in an uproar, and Roosevelt and Dewey were arguing over the topic of "Europe First", news of the "Great Victory in Central Henan" came from Asia.
"...Hundreds of thousands of Chinese and Japanese troops fought fiercely with nearly 200,000 Japanese troops in central Henan for more than 30 days. The enemy in front of them...the Japanese suffered more than 30,000 casualties and lost 240 tanks in this battle. More than one vehicle and more than 150 cannons..."
Looking at the news in the newspaper, Li Yian seemed particularly calm. All this was both expected and unexpected. It was expected because , there are examples to follow in another world - just a few months after the tragic defeat of Henan, Hunan and Guangxi, China and the army launched the "Battle of Western Hunan". At that time, the Yunnan-Burma Highway was opened, US aid supplies were imported into China in large quantities, and military equipment was updated. Combat effectiveness is enhanced. From this came the "Great Victory in Western Hunan". The subsequent counterattack also proved that as long as they had sufficient ammunition and supplies, the Chinese could defeat the Japanese army.
As long as there are ammunition and supplies...the patriotism and passion of the Chinese people are enough to defeat the Japanese devils. Because the Chinese have persisted on flesh and blood for seven full years!
In the past three months, as many as 70,000 tons of supplies have arrived in the country, which is more than ten times the level of the same period in history. The troops who were originally seriously short of weapons and ammunition have been replenished.
"...Perhaps, this is the real change"
For the first time, although it was just a victory in a battle, he did change a lot.
“Well, the war of resistance may be easier in the future.”
This Japanese offensive is the largest offensive war since the Meiji Restoration. Their defeat also means that the Japanese army has lost its offensive advantage on the mainland, and the initiative in future wars is no longer in their hands.
< br>Thinking of this, Li Yian couldn't help but smile on his face. This smile came from the heart, and the smile was very bright, because this was the first step to bury his little life.
“The Drunken Orchid at the foot of Mount Fuji... is closer!”
While sighing, Li Yian cast his gaze into the distance. He was on the Empire State Building, staring at Manhattan. Staring at the surrounding skyscrapers, this is the most prosperous metropolis in the twentieth century.
Although prosperous, it does not belong to oneself, but on the other side of the ocean, there is a land waiting for the return of its owner.
Thinking of this, the corners of Li Yian's lips raised slightly, and when he was proud, he even whistled softly and said to himself.
“Give me twenty years, and you will find a miraculous... Borneo!”
At this moment, his ambition is no longer North Borneo, but the entire Borneo!
After all, people’s ambitions will always expand!
