Chapter 542: A Worry-Free Ally

Roosevelt and Churchill didn't know the famous saying: I'm not afraid of opponents like gods, but I'm afraid of teammates like pigs. But if they knew, they would definitely add another sentence to this famous saying: Teammates like pigs are terrible, but teammates who are too smart are sometimes a big trouble. Because they are facing the smart "teammates" they have shown.

We are allies, so we should not be too stingy. The British look down on Japan's industry, and the United States is even more despised, so China wants... what can they say? Can't it be? Is it okay for us to be allies? You don't want it, why don't you give it to us? From this, we can see how appropriate the Chinese government's choice of this opportunity is: Britain and the United States cannot offend China too much. Needless to say, the Chinese team has just rescued 30,000 American soldiers from the Philippines, and rescued a US military general. The United States must repay this favor; let alone the United Kingdom... Just now, Song Ziwen and Yan Huiqing said that Hit was not cruel enough.

Forget it. If Churchill dares to oppose or refuse to hand over Japan's industry to China, maybe Hitler will think of using napalm bombs to bomb London and even the entire Great Britain tomorrow. Churchill believes that the Chinese will definitely do such a thing, because in Asia, China does not need Britain. On the contrary, Britain's interests in Southeast Asia have hindered China's pace of progress towards Southeast Asia. Therefore, as long as the Americans do not cut off their alliance with China, China does not need to be too taboos. It is obvious that even if China and Britain become hostile countries, as long as China does not oppose the United States, the US government will not turn against China. Because that is equivalent to a waste of money to Japan.

Therefore, the timing of the Chinese government's choice of the conditions is simply too great. Neither Britain nor the United States can object, nor can they use any means behind their backs. However, once Britain and the United States let go, the Chinese will definitely take advantage of the victory to pursue it and put all this into paper. By then, even if Britain and the United States want to repent in the future, it will be difficult to deal with it.

...

"We haven't defeated the Axis powers yet. Is it too early to start allocating the final fruit of victory?"

The Chinese cannot get what they want. In the long run, once this country obtains the Japanese industrial foundation and develops, it will be far more threatening than Japan. Churchill and Roosevelt wink and then began to change the topic... Since they cannot refuse on the spot or agree, then delay! This is a method that any government official in any country can take out and is best at. Unfortunately, his trick comes from the National Government and also knows the wonderful use of "procrastination". Song Ziwen and Yan Huiqing, who are more aware of the wonderful use of "procrastination", are not useful:

"It is best to set the conditions at the beginning for any cooperation. This can save us a lot of trouble in the future, and it can also make us more powerful and motivated... We believe that Britain and the United States want to see a China that strives to resist Japan, right?"

"Shouldn't the Chinese government strive to resist Japan?" Churchill looked at the two of them with a funny look, "China has been embezzled most of its territory by Japan."

"That's why we need enough compensation!" Yan Huiqing confronted him. "We must get the Japanese industry!"

"...For China, Japan's industry is too large. You cannot digest it." Churchill insisted.

"That means that the British government does not agree with our request?" Yan Huiqing looked straight at the British Prime Minister and asked in a deep voice.

"I think Prime Minister Churchill definitely didn't mean that," although he actually meant that. Roosevelt hurriedly helped ease the atmosphere. Yan Huiqing's expression of the expression that as long as Churchill dared to nod, China would dare to take revenge made him very nervous... Allies, allies, have not yet officially formed an alliance. He almost made a rebellion. It can be imagined that this Allies will definitely not have a good life in the future.

"Japan also infringed on the interests of the British Empire, so after consideration, I think we also need Japanese compensation." Although there was no mutual communication with each other, Churchill received a signal from Roosevelt. The US president did not want him to overstimulate the Chinese at this time... In this case, he could only take a more tactful way to stop China. After looking at Roosevelt, he planned to bring the United States together: "Of course, I believe that the United States also needs Japanese compensation. But apart from their not-so-powerful industry, there is nothing that Japan can see if we can see."

"We do not object to this. The invaders must pay the price, and the invading party deserves corresponding compensation, regardless of whether they really need it." Song Ziwen nodded and said.

"I agree with Mr. Song's words very much." Churchill laughed dryly, and continued to look at Song Ziwen and the others vigilantly... If Britain and the United States also interfered in dividing Japanese industry, China might get less than one-third of what it could do. But everyone knows that Britain and the United States actually do not need the little possessions of Japan. Song Ziwen and the two were very smart, and it was impossible not to understand his plans. And as he expected, Song Ziwen smiled slightly at him:

"But out of integrity, we want to sign a treaty."

"Treaty?" Churchill was stunned, "Is it a treaty to allocate Japanese industry after the war?"

"Of course there must be content in this regard." Song Ziwen said, "But we still need a provision on mutual supervision. The three countries supervise each other's respective occupation and digestion of Japanese industry..."

"Mr. Song, what do you mean?" Churchill snorted coldly, "Are you doubting us?"

"That's right!"

"you……"

I am afraid of spreading everything. Even Churchill, who is used to the strong winds and waves, was almost suffocated by the simple words of Song Ziwen. I know your plans, I just don’t trust you, what can you do?

"Do you think we will return the Japanese industry to them?" Churchill shouted, already a little angry.

"We do not deny this possibility, but what we are most worried about is waste... The Japanese's industrial strength is not worth mentioning than that of Britain and the United States, but it is extremely precious to backward China. We do not want these precious industrial equipment to be wasted by some people for some unnecessary reasons." Yan Huiqing said lightly.

"That is to say, China lacks the most basic trust in Britain!" Churchill snorted coldly, "Since that's the case, I announce to your country on behalf of the British Empire that we will refuse all cooperation related to your country, including allowing you to transport materials through Myanmar!"

"Since China took over Vietnam and other places, Myanmar has not been the most important channel for us to obtain international aid. However, with the Japanese attack on Southeast Asia and the direction of their possible attack in the future, Myanmar's importance to China cannot be underestimated... It still has the possibility of becoming China's only external transportation line." Song Ziwen said.

"It seems you understand the truth." Churchill snorted coldly.

"You haven't figured it out yet, Mr. Prime Minister." Yan Huiqing also looked at Churchill coldly, "In order to ensure China's interests, we may take any measures! This definitely includes launching an attack on the so-called allies who do not regard us as allies!"

"...I don't understand what you are saying. Are you trying to declare war on the British Empire?" Churchill asked with a gloomy face and almost roaring.

"For the survival of the country, we can declare war on anyone. Even if the scene of declaring war on the whole world is repeated, we will never retreat." Yan Huiqing confronted him tit.

"...But you failed the last time." Churchill sneered.

"But at least we dare to do that." Yan Huiqing also sneered.

"It's a pity that many bravery are because of ignorance. The ignorant is fearless!" Churchill mocked.

"At least it is better than being a turtle that has been hunched. When future generations ask us, we can at least proudly tell them: we have not surrendered to anyone!" Yan Huiqing sneered, "It's the rational and wise Prime Minister, I wonder if you can tell me. If the British Empire loses India, how sad your people will be?"

"...India is the brightest jewel in the crown of the British Empire! This is a fact that will never change!" Churchill gritted his teeth.

"Okay. Gentlemen. I repeat again. This will be my last statement: we are allies, not enemies!" Roosevelt couldn't help it. He slapped the desk with a slap. "Today's meeting ends here! I hope you can calm down after you go back, and don't treat each of them as enemies because of a little verbal argument... If that's the case, let's just surrender to the Axis together!"

"Our attitude is indeed too much today, and I'm sorry to make you both unhappy, but our conditions will not change." Song Ziwen stood up, took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to Roosevelt's desk. "This is a document sent from our country. I hope you can take a closer look at it, Mr. President... Goodbye!"

...

"Mr. President, the Chinese have begun to unveil their ambitions. They have not driven the invaders out of their homes... This shows that they are far more threatening than Japan and far more dangerous than Japan. If they have obtained Japanese industry, I can be sure that in less than twenty years, there will be no more places in Asia where Britain and the United States can talk." Churchill left later than Song Ziwen and the others, but he did not forget to remind Roosevelt when he left.

"I know this very well. And I can tell you that I have always been very alert to China. But no matter what, we are allies now, and we must concentrate our efforts to defeat the Axis powers first." Roosevelt replied.

"It is right to concentrate your strength, but you cannot be overly indulged." Churchill retorted, "If the United States also expresses its dissatisfaction with China at the same time, then I believe that the Chinese government will definitely not dare to be so tough... After all, they still need US aid to fight against the Japanese."

"But if China is defeated, Japan will be able to draw more troops, and they can even directly arm these Chinese people, just like they armed the Soviet labor camps." Roosevelt said in a deep voice, "Mr. Prime Minister, this consequence is equally terrible, and it is more urgent than China's future threat."

"...I want to know your opinion on the Chinese people's establishment of the Southeast Asian Allied Command." Churchill suddenly said again.

"Don't you care about this proposal?" Roosevelt was stunned. Churchill's previous opinion on this suggestion was not very good.

"Not caring is just a manifestation. My real purpose is not to want the Chinese to be the commander of this Allied Forces." Churchill said, "I don't trust them. Because if that happens, I worry that the interests of the British Empire and even the United States in Southeast Asia will be damaged."

"It's a pity that the Chinese don't trust you either." Roosevelt smiled bitterly. He once again was worried about his future life in the Allies.

"So now the only Americans can serve as commanders of the Southeast Asian Allied Forces." Churchill said, "I will support you. In this way, the Chinese can only agree."

"Thank you for your support, I think this is a good suggestion." Roosevelt smiled. The United States does not have much power in Southeast Asia. MacArthur and the 30,000 US troops will also be transferred to Australia. However, if one can obtain the position of commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces in one region, it will also be beneficial to the interests of the United States.

"This will only be the beginning. The relationship between Britain and the United States is not like other countries. We should cooperate more closely." Churchill also smiled. He understood that he and Roosevelt would be real ally. China is just a little brother brought by the two countries and will be thrown away after they are used up. This perception made him exclaim the suffocation he had just received from Song Ziwen and Yan Huiqing, and he also wanted to educate the two guys and tell them... It is useless to fight for power, and the real thing is to get the benefits in his hands.

...

"What a worry-free ally!"

Finally, everyone was sent away. Roosevelt also felt that his strength was almost exhausted! The alliance was not fully formed, but his own people almost fought... He was dissatisfied with Churchill, because if this guy had not been arrogant from the beginning and ignored China's existence in Southeast Asia in front of Song Ziwen and the others, maybe the Chinese would not have been so tough. Of course, the Chinese government represented by Song Ziwen and the others also made him very dissatisfied. China is too greedy now, its appetite is too big and too strong, and politics is the art of compromise. Why didn't these two groups of people know to give in? Unfortunately, he also knew that he could not control the two groups, so he could only comfort them as much as possible and try his best to twist the forces of the two countries together.

"There is another document, what are these Chinese people doing?"

Sighing, he saw the documents on the table again, Roosevelt didn't care, and opened them directly:

"The Draft of Trade Most Favored-National Treatment"? What is this..." (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better, updated and faster!
