If all the funds with a total value of one thousand tons of gold were converted into US dollars, it would be a full billion
¡° Such a good blackmail opportunity is not only valued by the Chairman, but also by the Prime Minister. With the chairman's approval, the Prime Minister directly reluctantly gave up and handed over a billion US dollars of funds to Liu Hua, allowing Liu Hua to decide on his own the equipment and materials he needed to purchase
Looking at the telegram sent by the central government, Liu Hua couldn't help but sigh with emotion at the central government's handiwork and courage. Because, when the domestic economy is backward and funds are in short supply, development and funds are needed everywhere. Spending such a huge sum of money is a very difficult decision for any leader. Since the two bosses have put this burden on themselves, Liu Hua certainly wants to do a better job. .
Large mechanical equipment and military equipment were basically purchased through the last round of telegraph transactions.
This amount of funds is even larger, and it is without purchasing large-scale machinery and equipment. It will undoubtedly be very difficult to spend all of him, and spend them all in key positions, without a field trip. Thinking of this, the idea of ??visiting the United States suddenly appeared in Liu Hua's mind.
"Chief of Staff, please report to me the latest status of each combat unit of the expeditionary force" Liu Hua asked directly with an abrupt face.
Holding in hand a telegram from the central government authorizing the commander-in-chief to purchase equipment, he asked about the situation of the expeditionary force that had nothing to do with the purchase of equipment. Although Chief of Staff Zuo Quan didn't know the reason, his long-term partner had already made him adapt to Liu Hua's extremely leaping thinking.
After quickly sorting out the thoughts in his mind, Zuo Quan spoke directly based on his memories.
"The progress of each unit is pretty good" "Under the repeated requests of the Japanese cabinet and the Japanese local government, the retreating units did not encounter any difficulties from the Japanese Moreover, even if the Japanese wanted to make things difficult for them, they There are not many young men who can take up arms and fight in the mainland." At this point, a look of admiration for Liu Hua appeared directly on his face.
Several years of war losses, coupled with the millions of people sent to the US government by Liu Hua look at the entire Japanese mainland. It is almost rare to see a Japanese young adult. Even students aged seventeen or eighteen are like looking for a needle in a haystack, hard to see. It is certain that, at least for the next few decades, the entire Japanese government will have to struggle with the country¡¯s imbalanced population ratio¡
Decades of stagnant development, coupled with Japan¡¯s poor industrial base. It's conceivable, as long as no accidents occur. The Japanese government will forever lose the opportunity to rise¡.
All of this, without exception, is done by the commander-in-chief in front of you.
After a brief moment of thought, Zuo Quan's rationality came back to him immediately. Facing Liu Hua in front of him, he continued to report.
"According to the latest battle reports sent by various ministries, all the troops deployed for the expedition have been assembled in accordance with the orders. So far, the smallest assembly of troops is also at the division level As long as the general headquarters issues an order. All combat-year troops can completely Within half a month, we will gather at the scheduled military port"
"In this case. Then the entire expeditionary force will have nothing major to do in the next period of time" Liu Hua said.
"Commander-in-Chief, what do you mean" Zuo Quan, who was increasingly puzzled, directly asked his doubts.
"The central government has put a huge sum of one billion U.S. dollars into my hands and authorized me to use all the funds. No matter what, I cannot let the chairman down or betray the trust of the central government. Therefore, I plan to express my gratitude to the central government." The Central Committee temporarily resigned from the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Expeditionary Force, and took this fund to personally visit the United States" Liu Hua replied with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Visiting the United States" Zuo Quan directly opened his mouth into a zero shape. He asked with a shocked look on his face.
"Yes, I am visiting the United States"
"A purchase order of one billion U.S. dollars is a huge fortune even for the current U.S. government. In addition, this transaction does not have a clear procurement goal. Only by going to the United States can we truly understand the relationship between China and the United States. gap. Prescribe the right medicine and purchase the equipment we need"
"In addition, I also want to use this trip to the United States to purchase some patented technologies and introduce some talents" Liu Hua explained.
Zuo Quan, a long-time partner, is very aware of one fact. If Liu Hua decides to do something in front of him, there must be a reason to do it, and it must be right
Seeing the confident Liu Hua in front of him, Zuo Quan directly agreed.
"Commander-in-Chief, I believe you"
??"However, the two of us cannot make a decision on such a big matter as a visit to the United States. What I mean is that you should immediately put your reasons into writing and submit them to the central government in a telegram format to request the central government's approval. After all, , you are also a national leader, and your visit to the United States can be regarded as an exchange between countries"
"Okay, I will send a telegram to the central government right away After I leave, the entire expeditionary force will be under your unified command and gradually withdraw from the Japanese mainland" Liu Hua nodded and said.
Office of the Chairman of the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, Zhongnanhai, Beijing.
Looking at the telegram sent by Liu Hua personally, the chairman was very satisfied. Because from the content of the telegram, the chairman could feel that Liu Hua had not forgotten his identity because of his military exploits. At the same time, the chairman also saw Liu Hua's meticulous and prudent attitude in doing things.
"Visiting the United States Enlai, I seem to remember that since our country took control of the country, no leader has ever visited a foreign country, right?" the chairman asked with a smile on his face.
"No, even the big brother of the Soviet Union on the border has not officially visited since the founding of New China" the Prime Minister affirmed.
"Soviet Union" When I hear these two words, I think of the series of frictions that the Far East Soviet Red Army constantly provoked at the border during the Northeast Field Army's attack on North Korea. A trace of murderous intent immediately flashed across the chairman's face, and he said coldly.
"Let's forget about the Soviet Union for now. Although we are both Japanese, from them, instead of seeing any friendship between Japanese, we see a strong murderous intention If nothing else, we see Taking the entire Anti-Japanese War as an example, the various free aids provided by the U.S. government to our country far exceeded that of the Soviet Union, which also belonged to Japan. In my opinion, our big brother is not as good as President Roosevelt of the United States"
Having said this, the chairman seemed not to want to continue this topic and asked directly to the prime minister.
"Forget it, let's not discuss this topic. Let's talk about the request sent by Comrade Liu Hua first Enlai, what do you think of Comrade Liu Hua's suggestion?"
"It's very pertinent, without any personal feelings involved. At the same time, what he said is also true. Only by going to the United States in person can we truly discover the real gap between China and the United States and choose the equipment we need to develop. Of course, there is another most important thing The most important thing is to introduce advanced production technology and talents from the United States to the country" The Prime Minister did not hesitate to express his appreciation and said with excitement.
"Comrade Liu Hua's words in the telegram are still right. No matter what period of time, 'Talents are the primary development force of society.' If a country does not have talents, no matter how much industrial equipment it has, it will not be possible." Let the entire country develop and become stronger. Of course, even if it becomes stronger, it will be overtaken by other countries in the first place"
"Therefore, the introduction of advanced foreign technology and talents has become a crucial link in the development of our country. Since Comrade Liu Hua has proposed it to us, we must seize this opportunity" The chairman stood firmly Liu Hua, his future successor, said with certainty.
"Chairman, in that case, we will agree to Comrade Liu Hua's request for a visit" the Prime Minister asked with a smile.
"Not only must we agree, but we must also support it as much as possible" the chairman said.
"Comrade Liu Hua is not only a member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, but also Vice Chairman of the Government and Vice Chairman of the Military Commission. It can be said that Comrade Liu Hua represents our entire country abroad. As a leader of a big country visiting foreign countries, of course It can¡¯t be too shabby.¡±
"Prime Minister, my idea is that since Comrade Liu Hua is traveling on behalf of the country to purchase equipment in the United States, does the government and the Government Affairs Council need to send some personnel to follow him? Of course, the prerequisite is that these people who follow Liu Hua on his visit All personnel can provide help to Liu Hua" the chairman said decisively.
"As for the Government Affairs Council, I do have a candidate?" the Prime Minister's eyes lit up and he said.
"Um? Who can make our Prime Minister so interested? Let me listen" the chairman asked with interest.
"Comrade Deng Xiaoping Before he was recommended by Comrade Liu Hua to join the Government Affairs Council, I thought Comrade Xiaoping was just an outstanding political worker. However, after entering the Government Affairs Council, within two months, I discovered that Comrade Xiaoping was very important in developing the economy. , also very talented Now, Comrade Xiaoping is already one of my best deputies in the Government Affairs Council."
"Comrade Xiaoping not only understands the domestic economic situation and the various domestic industrial bases, but more importantly, he is Comrade Liu Hua's old partner. Therefore, I think it is best to let him serve as Comrade Liu Hua's assistant." " the Prime Minister said affirmatively.
¡°Since the Prime Minister approves it, let Comrade Xiaoping go As for other personnel, it¡¯s up to you to do it yourself¡±??determined. "
"In addition, telegraph Comrade Liu Hua that the Central Committee agrees to his request. The command of the expeditionary force will be handed over to Comrade Zuo Quan immediately. Then, as soon as possible, rush back to the Central Committee to accept the new appointment" the chairman ordered.
"Yes, Chairman"! ~!
