Republic of China game

"What's the matter? Supplementary text." Natalie, who was following Luo Yaoguo, felt a little strange, and whispered in Luo Yaoguo's ear, "Is there anything wrong with this Churchill?"

Luo Yaoguo shook his head slowly, without saying anything, he strode towards the battle.Of course Luo Yaoguo knew who Churchill was.At such a critical moment, he was appointed as the governor of Canada. I am afraid that there are some special arrangements.However, this matter has little to do with China.The most important thing for China right now is to get a few pieces of land in Western Australia and the Middle East as soon as possible, as well as the compensation for the 4100 tons of gold (including 500 tons from India).

"Oh, Assistant Marshal, there is another news from Mexico." Yan Wu changed the topic to America at this time, and he said with a smile: "There seems to be a little friction between the United States and Mexico recently, and Mexico is likely to join We're on our side."

"Our side?" Luo Yaoguo frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

"We don't know the specific situation. Our military intelligence agency has no intelligence network in Mexico. The information was sent back by our envoy in Mexico, Mr. Huang Yunsu. It seems that the United States wants to force Mexico to join him in fighting Japan, but Mexico President Rodriguez thinks that the United States has little chance of winning this war, so he wants to join us. In recent days, he has frequently contacted our country's ministers, as well as Japanese and German ambassadors, to discuss the conditions for Mexico to join the Axis powers. "

While speaking, the three of them had already walked into the general staff war room.Seeing Luo Yaoguo coming in, all the officers in the combat room put down their work and stood at attention to salute.Luo Yaoguo also nodded slightly at the crowd, as a return of courtesy.Afterwards, he walked straight to a huge North American military map, stopped, stared up for a moment, and said, "Who is in charge of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs now?"

"Mr. Chen Youren, Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, is in charge." Yan Wu replied: "Mr. Wang went to Rome with Mr. Zeng Muhan on May 5, so Mr. Chen is in charge of all the work of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."

"Oh." Luo Yaoguo thought for a while, and then ordered Yan Wu: "I know about this matter, you can go to your own business first." The relationship between China, Japan and Germany is complicated, even Yan Wu, Luo Yaoguo's student and concurrently His confidants don't quite understand his thoughts, so it's not surprising that a "foolish old man" like Chen Youren is trying his best there.

"Fuwen, do you want to call the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and tell them to stop lobbying the Mexican government to join the Axis powers?" Natalie leaned closer to Luo Yaoguo's ear and whispered.

Luo Yaoguo nodded noncommittally, but his eyes were still fixed on Mexico on the map. After a while, he murmured: "I'm afraid this matter is not that simple. Why does the United States lobby for Mexico to join the Allies? A neutral Mexico exists as a buffer in the Is there something wrong between the United States and the Central American Federation...Could it be that the United States wants to counterattack Central America now?"

Natalie on the side seemed to have heard a very interesting thing, she giggled and said, "Counterattack? The Americans are besieged on all sides now, and Roosevelt still wants to counterattack? Besides, the young soldiers of the Americans can defeat Japan. ?”

Luo Yaoguo smiled and didn't answer.His eyes also left the map, and he turned and walked towards his office. After sitting behind his desk, he said to Natalie, "Go to the US embassy and tell Rockefeller the news that Mexico is planning to form an alliance with Japan. ambassador."

Natalie nodded and turned to leave. Just as she reached the gate, she suddenly turned around and asked, "Do you want me to stop by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?"

"No need." Luo Yaoguo smiled leisurely: "There is nothing wrong with letting Mexico get on the Japanese ship in a daze... The more isolated the United States is, the more valuable we are as a potential friend."

……

At this time, Mexico City.The meeting room of the Presidential Palace is filled with the rich aroma of tobacco that can only be issued by high-quality Cuban cigars. President Cardenas and the leaders of the Mexican Revolutionary Party are gathering together in the presence of two legendary Mexican heroes, Miguel Hidalgo and Jose S. In front of the huge portrait of Relos, they are discussing important matters related to the future and destiny of the Mexican country, that is, how to choose sides in this world war.

For a country like Mexico, which is not big or small, but does not have much industrial foundation, and its national economy is completely maintained by agriculture and mining, this world war is definitely a crisis. Of course, the danger far outweighs the opportunity!

Although the freshly baked President of the Central American Federation, Barretia, walked to Mexico City every now and then, and used the most beautiful language to describe an incomparably beautiful blueprint of "Great Mexico" to the leaders of Mexico... The representatives of Germany and Japan who came with Baretia also vowed to President Cardenas: as long as Mexico stands on the side of the Axis powers, after defeating the United States, Mexico will be able to get New Mexico, Texas, and the United States. California, Arizona!In other words, Mexico can get back most of the land lost in the 1848 war, and restore its status as a major country in North America!

Faced with such temptations, it would be impossible for President Cardenas and the PRI leaders to remain unmoved.But these few politicians are all wily and scheming, of course they know that there is no free lunch in the world.

As a semi-colonial country like Mexico, it is itself the target of the great powers to carve up and plunder. Germany, Japan, and China have shown great kindness by not turning Mexico into their colony. What about U.S. territories?

Now that the United States has not been defeated, they still want Mexico to be used as cannon fodder. Naturally, it is a good thing to say, once the United States is defeated by them... Little Mexico is not at their mercy!

Therefore, the Mexican government has not let go and turned to the Axis powers until now. Of course, Mexico is also unmoved by the conditions of the "Central American Federation" offered by the United States.The United States can help Mexico unify Central America now, and it will also be able to disintegrate this patchwork federation effortlessly in the future!Therefore, careful neutrality between the Axis and Allies was the best option for weak Mexico.

However, the flames of the world war have already reached the American continent. As a springboard for attacking the United States, is it possible for Mexico to choose peace?

Thinking of this, President Cardenas took a puff of his cigar, exhaled a puff of thick smoke, and sighed: "Gentlemen, I think everyone understands the current situation. The United Mexican States is now at a critical moment of life and death." Pass! It is no longer possible to remain neutral outside of this world war.

Whether it is the United States or China, Japan and Germany, we are not allowed to continue to sit on the fence!The US government has issued an ultimatum to us, ordering us to join the Allies within 24 hours and declare war on Japan, otherwise they will regard us as Japanese accomplices!Moreover, nearly 30 divisions of the US military have assembled on the US-Mexico border. If we refuse, I am afraid they will attack us! "

"Lazaro (Cardenas), is the United Mexican States going to succumb to the pressure of the United States again?" Calles, the former president of Mexico and the founder of the Institutional Revolutionary Party, looked at Cardenas meaningfully. .He said lightly: "You should know how much the United States has hurt us in Mexico, and the people in the country also have...very strong anti-American sentiments (mainly hate that the United States has annexed half of Mexico, not the whole of Mexico). If we stand with the United States Together, I am afraid it will stir up a wave of opposition, and it will also go against the purpose of our PRI."

Right now, Mexico is basically governed by the party, and the Institutional Revolutionary Party in power is a party that holds high the banner of nationalism. At least on the surface, it resolutely safeguards national independence and dignity, and opposes major powers (in fact, the United States) interfering in Mexico’s internal affairs. , control of the Mexican economy.

"Yes, we shouldn't be on the side of the United States! Moreover, the current war situation is obviously not good for the United States. We, Mexico, can use this opportunity to regain lost ground and become a major power in North America again."

"Yeah, the United States is also bullying people too much this time! They don't even look at the situation of the world war, and they still want to force us to join the Allies."

"Hmph, Belgium and the Netherlands, among their allies, have already surrendered. French Deputy Prime Minister Petain and British Prime Minister Chamberlain have also gone to Rome to discuss the conditions of surrender with representatives of Germany, Japan, and China! How long can the United States be rampant? "

"The U.S. military is completely vulnerable. Even Hawaii and Panama have been lost, and the Pacific Fleet has also suffered heavy losses. If we stand on the side of the United States, we can only die!"

As soon as Calles finished speaking, the leaders of the PRI in the conference room echoed their words one after another, but President Cardenas refused to let go.Because he knows very well that although the United States does not have the upper hand in a world war, its national strength still exceeds that of Mexico.Once the United States and Mexico go to war, Mexico has no way to resist alone. The only way out is to invite Japanese troops to station.But in that case, after the war, Mexico may be controlled by Japan again.The United States is certainly hateful, but after all, it is already the number one rich country in the world, while Japan can only be described as vicious... During this period of time, the raids of the Japanese in the Central American Federation were much more ruthless than that of the United States!

Seeing that Cardenas was still hesitating, Calles sighed softly, looked up at the portraits of the heroes of the War of Independence on the wall, and said with a wry smile: "Lazaro, I understand everything in your mind. To be honest, I don't Believe in China, Japan and Germany, the actions of these three countries over the years have already shown the whole world that they have no credibility at all. We in Mexico will definitely not end well if we cooperate with them!" Speaking of this, Ka Les let out another long sigh, two teardrops were already shaking in his old eyes. "However, China, Japan and Germany are obviously about to win this world war! If we don't stand by them and go to the United States, what awaits Mexico will only be a catastrophe!"

"But... Mister Calles."

After glancing at the few people in the meeting room, Cardenas already understood that today's meeting was a "forced palace" against him, the president, by the bigwigs of the PRI.On the surface, his president was elected by the people, but in fact it was just a few bigwigs from the PRI who pushed him to the front, using his Indian blood to appease the Indians who make up the majority of the population in the country.If he really violates the will of the entire PRI, his president and even his life will be at risk at any time!The ex-President Alvaro Obregón was shot dead for no apparent reason.

But the question is will the United States really be easily defeated?This is America after all!It is the home court of the United States. If the United States wants to compete with China and Japan in the Pacific Ocean, or go to Europe to challenge Germany's hegemony, of course it will definitely lose.But in America, the situation is completely different.President Cardenas was not a civil servant. He was a general of the Mexican military officers before he became president, and after the presidential term, he will return to the Mexican army to continue to be an officer (this is the case in history).As a professional soldier, although he has not fought any decent wars, he also knows what the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean mean to any enemy who wants to attack the United States.

Perhaps, the United States will fail in the end, but before that...the United States still has enough time to turn Mexico into a piece of scorched earth!

Think of the millions of armed US troops assembled on the US-Mexico border, as well as the US aircraft that block the sky.Cardenas couldn't make up his mind to fight the United States.

And he still has a hidden worry in his heart, what will happen to her after China, Japan and Germany defeat the United States?If, as it did with Britain and France, it is done with blackmail, then the United States will surely have a day of recovery in the future.Just like Germany and China now, how will Mexico face the wrath of a revived America?

Looking at Cardenas who was standing there in a daze, Calles didn't know what the other party was thinking.Although their revolutionary institutional party calls for nationalism and uses "anti-Americanism" as its banner, it is actually "phobic about the United States."The power of the United States may not be clear to those European or Asian powers, but as a neighboring country of the United States, Mexico can't understand it.

If Mexico can stay out of this war and don't offend the overlord of the Americas, Calles will not come here to talk nonsense with Cardenas.However, the current situation can no longer tolerate Mexico's neutrality, and she has to make a choice between the United States and China, Japan and Germany.

"Lazaro," Calles looked at the opposite president, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "For Mexico, this world war is a gamble that we have to participate in! We can only suppress the whole of Mexico." Going up, as for... winning or losing, no one is absolutely sure. But my opinion is that China, Japan and Germany have a greater chance of winning than the United States. Because, after the United Kingdom and France surrender, the United States will face the attack of the entire world! Although the United States is strong , but she does not have the strength to defeat the entire world. Therefore, the demise of the United States is certain." At this point, Calles emphasized his tone: "I mean perdition! Not defeat!"

"Mr. Calles, are you sure? What did they say?" Cardenas asked.He knew that Calles had secretly made a trip to Panama City in early May and had several meetings with representatives of Japan and Germany in Panama City. As a result, upon his return from Panama, he became firmly anti-American.

Hearing Cardenas ask about the content of his secret talks with the Germans and Japanese in Panama City, Calles looked a little gloomy, but immediately put on a confident smile: "Representatives of Germany and Japan Promise me that America will be destroyed! When this war is over, there will be no United States of America in the world!

Moreover, a full-scale attack on the United States will soon begin, and Germany will concentrate all of its European power to attack from Canada and the Caribbean.Japan will unite with the Central American Federation and us to invade the western United States from the long US-Mexico border.And China will attack from the northwestern United States and western Canada.Therefore, the defeat of the United States is inevitable...and only by joining the Axis powers and participating in the war against the United States can we preserve our hard-won independence and freedom. "

Having said that, Calles glanced at Cardenas who was still hesitating, gritted his teeth and said, "Lazaro, let me give you a closer look. Now there are 16 Japanese divisions, a total of 40 Human reinforcements are already in the Pacific Ocean. By the end of June at the latest, these troops will be able to reach Central America. By then, the total strength of the Japanese army in Central America will reach as many as 6! The combat power of the Japanese army is enough to equal 60 million American troops. In addition, As soon as germany ends the war in europe they will send military aid to confederation of central america and mexico. we mexicans will get enough weapons and equipment to arm 200 divisions and the germans will provide military advisers to help us train our troops.

In addition... the National Socialist Workers Party of Germany will help our PRI to reform, and Germany will help us build heavy industry.Our Institutional Revolutionary Party will also become a fighting party like the German Nazi Party, and our Mexico will become stronger from now on!will……"

"what……"

Calles hadn't finished speaking, and there was a burst of exclamation in the conference room.The Mexican Revolutionary Party actually wants to match the German Nazi Party!Isn't Calles, the leader of the PRI, the Hitler of Mexico?

"I will forever get rid of the current democratic system that makes the country weak and free!" Calles glanced at the people present, stood up suddenly, and said loudly: "Democratic countries are in this world war. The failure of the Communist Party of China is enough to prove the harmfulness of this system. What we need in Mexico is a powerful system full of fighting spirit that can unite all citizens! That is-National Socialism!"

"Besides, there is no other way out of Mexico!" His voice darkened again as he spoke. "I met German Foreign Minister Mr. Ribbentrop in Panama City. He secretly arrived in America on an Italian plane. He gave us two ways out for Mexico. One is to fight with Germany, Japan and China to eliminate the evil America. The source. The second is to be destroyed with the United States! Lázaro Cardenas, you are the president now, you choose. Will Mexico survive or perish?"

Cardenas glanced at the future head of state of Mexico and smiled bitterly: "Mr. Calles, you made me the president. You are the mentor of me and the entire PRI. I follow your wishes...Mexico The United States will declare war on America!"

……

Washington, the White House.

"Ernest, please listen to me, now the American shipyards are going all out...well, yes, the transformation of aircraft carriers from merchant ships...has begun. By October of this year, there will be 10 30-ton ships By the time the 1-ton merchant ship transformation aircraft carrier is completed..."

At this time, President Roosevelt was wearing a nightgown, holding a phone, sitting in a slightly worn-out armchair, and was talking on the phone with Admiral Ernest Joseph King, commander of the Atlantic Fleet in Norfolk.Admiral Jin's tone on the phone was full of anxiety, and now there are only two battleships left in the battleships of the entire Atlantic Fleet!If Britain and France perish, Hitler only needs to use the German navy to easily defeat the Atlantic Fleet, and then it may be the end of American history!

But what about Roosevelt?He is the President of the United States, not God!The American industry is indeed strong, and there are now more than 30 Essex-class aircraft carriers under construction.But these warships cannot be built overnight, even the United States cannot do it.In order to obtain an available aircraft carrier for the Navy as soon as possible, the U.S. government immediately launched an emergency plan after the Pearl Harbor incident, transforming 10 large freighters of 2 tons and 20 freighters of 1 tons into aircraft carriers.However, it also takes time to transform ships. Before the 30 aircraft carriers being transformed are completed, the United States really cannot produce warships that can be used to defend the east coast.

Just when Roosevelt was struggling to cheer Admiral King, so that he could use the spirit of overcoming all difficulties to figure out a way to defend the long North American coastline from fascist invasion.There was a sudden knock on the door of the Oval Office, and it was Secretary of State Hull who hurried in.

Hull looked at the president who was on the phone, and yelled without regard to etiquette: "Mr. President, Mr. Castro, the Mexican ambassador to the United States, asked for an interview. He wants to..."
