    Chapter 65

    Thinking of the arrogant behavior of those British people today, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "The British people, the rocks in the latrines are smelly and hard, it is difficult to deal with them, and they are so arrogant. Now the poor are almost begging for food, so why not?"  They can¡¯t let go of their stinking air of an empire where the sun never sets.¡±

    "In their hearts, they still hold the idea of ????white supremacy. They not only look down on us, but also look down on almost all Asian armies. With a few thousand people and a few cannons, they can  Occupying a country¡¯s colonial-era scenery makes them despise people of color and Asian troops, including the Japanese army.¡±

    "If they don't dare to look down upon the Japanese navy, then they don't take a higher look at the Japanese army than the armies of other Asian countries, including the previous Chongqing army. The equipment of the Japanese is based on their so-called European  By standards, it¡¯s worse than garbage.¡±

    "With this premise, they can still like us. They haven't really tasted the power of the Japanese on land. They won't know what the Eastern Army is. But this situation is good. It makes these people feel proud.  The proud British will have a taste of the Japanese fist, and at the same time it can reduce the pressure on us at the negotiation table.¡±

    "That General Wavell is a realist. He is not as arrogant as other British generals, but he is clearly a thousand-year-old fox. This time I am afraid he will be more difficult to deal with than the Soviets. If he does not agree to their request,  I'm afraid they won't let go. Letting the British, who are in urgent need of equipment, bleed is probably more difficult than snatching food from a tiger's mouth."

    In response to Yang Zhen's emotion, the political commissar pondered for a while and said: "What kind of character is your boy? Although I haven't been in contact with you for a long time, I have a general understanding. Your boy is the master who will never suffer any loss. Today, you are knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger."  Are you satisfied with the performance?¡±

    "I think others may not have noticed it, but at least General Wavell did. On the surface, you were targeting the U.S. Army Major General, but in fact it was obviously a show for them. Although most of them  It¡¯s just a fun thing to watch, but I¡¯m afraid that Admiral Wavell already knows your bottom line, and the smile that Admiral Wavell made when he said goodbye was very meaningful.¡±

    "Also, since you have already expressed your thoughts through Pearson's mouth before, but they still came, and the specifications of this delegation are not low. The future Commander-in-Chief of the British Army in the Far East is the head of the delegation.  It shows that the British take this negotiation even more seriously than the Americans. I think some things may not be as complicated as you think.¡±

    "But even though you were just trying to impress the British this time, but you offended that U.S. Army Major General. According to Pearson, this guy has a certain influence in the White House. Isn't this right?  It will have a certain impact on our negotiations with the United States.¡±

    "You, there are many ways to let the British know your bottom line, so why bother to offend the Americans? Sometimes, it is necessary to take some measures, but cleverness is not a long-term solution after all, especially in the eyes of those high-level figures.  , these things are very shameful.¡±

    "This is Major General Stilwell, whose thinking is not that complicated. If it were Admiral Wavell, you would probably suffer a loss. Didn't you also say that he is an old fox? For that Stilwell  Major General, there is actually nothing to worry about, but Admiral Wavell may not be easy to deal with. "

    "How could someone who managed to support the entire Middle East war situation with 50,000 troops at the most difficult time when Britain was driven out of the European continent, suffered successive defeats, and the homeland was being bombarded by the Germans in turn, could be deceived so easily?  Come on, no matter how poor the combat effectiveness of this Italian Army is, it¡¯s still not a bunch of scum.¡±

    "Your anger is not simply about killing chickens and terrifying monkeys. In addition to showing off to the British, I feel that there is more to venting your anger. You have used the pressure and anger accumulated from the negotiations with the Soviet Union to  The displeasure felt by the United States and Britain this time has been put on the American major general."

    "Comrade Yang Zhen, this is very important. Governing a big country is like cooking small dishes. Your way of venting your anger can certainly make you happy for a while, but have you thought about the possible subsequent effects? Although he is a major general of the U.S. Army, he  He is not a real decision-maker, but he still has some influence in the White House.¡±

    "You vented his anger on him, not to mention what kind of follow-up effects it will bring, even if you don't have the most basic courtesy, even if he provokes you first, where is your self-restraint? I know it is so important.  Almost everything is placed on you alone, which puts a lot of pressure on you, but remember that the most important thing is to be happy and angry for the superior.?¡±

    His own thoughts were seen through by the old commander, but Yang Zhen laughed and said: "Old Chief, you guessed it right. I knew that Admiral Wavell would see it, so I did such a trick. I just want to  Let them know that we will not follow their lead for the sake of their supplies and assistance.¡±

    "When it's time to not compromise, I will not make any compromises, let alone harm our own strategic interests. This is our bottom line and our fundamental principle. Just watch, after today's play is over,  There may be some troubles in the future negotiations, but the troubles will be much smaller than before. In many cases, only the troubled children will be fed. "

    "As for Major General Stilwell, he is too far away from the real core decision-making level of the United States and cannot influence the policies of the White House. However, this man has great ambitions, but he is somewhat ambitious and short-handed. He is one of the few China experts in the U.S. Army. The United States  If he goes to war, this guy will probably be put in an important position."

    "I feel that he may bring us more trouble than the British in the future. The position Pearson mentioned is not impossible. Let's knock the mountain and shake the tiger in advance to let him know that we are not Chongqing.  On the other hand, you can let him rub it, which is the real way to prevent the slightest change, and there will be a lot less trouble in the future. "

    "This quarrel will indeed bring us some trouble, but not too much. The White House will not listen to him on some key matters. Americans who need us to hold back the Japanese will not  He will change his policy for his own personal feelings.¡±

    In response to Yang Zhen's explanation, the old commander nodded: "It's good that you have an idea, but you still have to pay attention to some things. It's better to offend a gentleman than a villain. Try to reduce unnecessary troubles as much as possible. The central government will treat you  We have great expectations this time, so don¡¯t mess up the situation over trivial things. It¡¯s best to avoid what happened today as much as possible in the future.¡±

    Yang Zhen didn't say anything after the old commander's earnest persuasion. He just nodded with a smile and sent away the old commander who also stayed at Sun Island to rest. Yang Zhen and Li Yanping did not stay at Sun Island to rest. Although the people here  There are still many unused villas, and Chen Bo has already selected two villas as a resting place for Yang Zhen and Li Yanping.

    But after a short period of thinking, Yang Zhen still didn't stay here for the night. The two decided to return to the military region headquarters overnight. There was still a lot of things backlogged in the military region, waiting for the two people to deal with them, even though Yang Zhen and the two were extremely exhausted at this time.  Although they were tired, the two of them still had to go back. As Yang Zhen said, normal work could not be delayed.

    Looking at the two white lights illuminated by the car lights on the road, Li Yanping, who was riding in the same car as Yang Zhen, hesitated for a long time before speaking: "No. 1, what do you think of the outcome of this negotiation? Look.  Given the attitudes of the United States and Britain today, I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s destined to be another hard fight.¡±

    ¡°Since the beginning of this negotiation with the Soviet Union, I have been thinking that if our national strength can one day reach the level of the Americans, the Soviet Union, or even the Japanese, we will not have to be like the Japanese in the future.  It would be nice to beg for help like this with such a humble face."

    Li Yanping's emotion, Yang Zhen looked at the scenery outside the car window, and was silent for a long time before saying: "Old Li, we are working so hard today just to lay a solid foundation for the day when we don't ask for help. Maybe that day, you  I may not be able to see that one day, it may even take several generations of hard work to achieve it, and maybe it will be a long and painful process to reach that goal.¡±

    "But if we don't work hard now, then the realization of this goal will only be further elusive. The building was not built in a day. What we are doing now is to lay a solid foundation for this building. Although this process needs to be realized, it will not be realized in a day."  It may be achieved in one fell swoop, but it may take decades, or even one or more generations of effort.¡±

    "Our efforts and contributions today are precisely for tomorrow's harvest. No matter how long and painful the struggle process is, for you, me, and the day that countless Chinese people are looking forward to, we can only hold on now. As long as we  Don¡¯t let go, start working hard from now on, and don¡¯t miss any opportunity. This ideal will one day come true.¡±

    Li Yanping nodded slightly at Yang Zhen's answer, but he didn't speak again until the car drove into the military region headquarters compound. Instead, he remained silent, watching the old comrade no longer hide his face.  Yang Zhen looked extremely tired, and Yang Zhen, who was under greater pressure than him, could only sigh helplessly in his heart.

    After returning to his office and letting Yuan Zhiruo rest, Yang Zhen picked up the office phone on the table and wanted to ask Guo Bingxun about the schedule of the US and British military delegation tomorrow, but he hesitated slightly and finally put down the phone.Instead, he picked up the letter paper on the table and kept writing something.

    Yuan Zhiruo, who did not go to rest as requested by Yang Zhen outside the door, looked at the time on her watch, and then looked at the tiredness on Yang Zhen's face inside the room, as well as the pen that had not stopped in his hand. Although he hesitated slightly,  But he still walked in, wanting to persuade him to take a rest as soon as possible.

    Seeing that Yuan Zhiruo did not go to rest, but instead walked into his office, Yang Zhen put down the pen in his hand and said somewhat differently: "It's so late, why don't you go to rest? You have to participate in negotiations tomorrow, you English translator  But you can¡¯t be absent. If you don¡¯t get enough rest, it will affect your brain¡¯s thinking and reaction speed.¡±

    In response to Yang Zhen's criticism, Yuan Zhiruo came over and took the pen from his hand and said: "No. 1, you can't just talk about me. Your average rest time these days is less than four hours a day. The amount of time you slept last night was  It¡¯s been less than three hours, and if this continues, your body won¡¯t be able to bear it anymore.¡±

    "You are the top military leader of the Anti-Japanese Alliance. If you collapse at this time, what will happen to the negotiations and what will happen to the troops? Your body is not made of iron. There were certain problems last time, and now you have been overdosing for such a long time.  Work has reached its limit, now you must rest.¡±
