Nine Songs of Anti-Japanese War

It's better to talk than nothing, and we can't let it collapse first.We don't want to see all the Japanese running to the Chinese-occupied areas to play guerrilla warfare with the Allies when victory is about to come.The biggest question is, how to deal with the ownership of the leadership of the Chinese theater?It is no longer possible to expect them to reconcile.The president wants me to make suggestions, and I want you to make suggestions. "

The only southerner present, Miami, contrary to his usual cheerful and enthusiastic impression, struggled for a while, and whispered: "I may have some information about this matter that none of you know..."

"Please say."

"I read a poem written by General Stilwell, just recently, Boston said that the president wrote in his diary after expressing his support. I'll know..." Miami glanced out the window a little nervously, He explained, "Because he has a good relationship with Balatka in my state, his hometown, so he sent this poem to Balatka in the form of a letter to share the joy in his heart. But Balatka sees I was a little uneasy after reading this poem, and told me again. I think this is also an opportunity..."

"Do you remember the content of the poem?"

"Remember. This poem is not long, and the words are simple, so it is easy to remember."

New York pretended to clap his hands twice: "Then read it out!"

With a slightly embarrassed smile, Mai Ermi stood in the middle of the room, took a deep breath and began to recite: I waited a long time for revenge,

I finally have a chance.

staring into the eyes of peanuts

Kick his pants.

……

The little bastard trembled,

Also speechless.

he turned green and trembled

Struggling and refusing to make a sound.

……

I know I have to suffer,

continue to be burdened and wronged,

But—ah—felt so happy!

I tore up the face of peanuts.

After reading Miami, he quickly sat back on the edge of the bed.Philadelphia asked curiously, "Who is Peanut?"

"...the commander of the Chinese theater, Jiang."

Washington had a sullen face, and looked around the crowd with a strange look of wanting to laugh but not laughing, wanting to cry: "Good job, Miami. We can count on the evaluation of this general-some abilities, but he doesn't think much of himself. Gao, he is too naive politically. He is a staff officer, even in his diary, insulting the commander-in-chief shows that he has a bad mentality. After all, he is a foreign officer who always wants to take power, and his hands are too long."

"We can only change the chief of staff." Boston put forward a pertinent opinion, "But China's internal power structure is intricate and has long been called the cemetery of diplomats. Can we find a suitable replacement? The Burma war is still going on, why? Is it more appropriate to replace it at the right time? After the replacement, the attitude towards CPC should be reconsidered.”

"The candidate is not a problem. There are too many people who are politically more mature than him. Myanmar's factors will also be taken into consideration. As for the CPC, um...you have to find someone who is more friendly."

Philadelphia added: "You can't be too friendly, like this one, it's too much to publicly praise them, and you want to make trouble with the authorities."

"I've made a note of it. Let's stop here for now." Washington lowered his head and wrote a few sentences in his notebook, showing rare signs of fatigue, and sighed. "Hey, the Far East battlefield is too troublesome! This kind of domestic discord can still be fought crookedly until now, and I have convinced them. Next, let's talk about the deployment of manpower to attack the Philippines..."

They deliberated for another hour before breaking up.Washington stayed in New York, and when everyone else had left, he said to him: "Can I ask you something? Call Moscow and ask him to consider a visit to China."

"Of course, my honor." New York made a reassuring gesture, "but why don't you go out?"

"I don't want to be too formal. If I say it, it's like I'm making a plea as an ally. I hope Soviet-Chinese relations can soften, but I don't want to owe them favors for this kind of thing."

"I understand." New York whistled, "Then I will say this: Congratulations on pushing the front line to Poland and achieving a series of gratifying results. Bulgaria and Romania have turned against each other, are you happy? Bulgaria is so funny, once you declare war on them Just defected, hahaha. We are also very happy, the victory of our allies is our victory. Since everyone is so happy, why not communicate with China happily? The Manchuria issue is still waiting to be resolved, CPC, we also support kind treatment Let him talk, you might as well communicate more..."

New York is like a veteran Broadway actor. After finishing his performance with full posture and accent, he blinked and looked at Washington.

"Very well." Washington smiled approvingly, "That's all."

Then he moved closer to New York.New York was puzzled by his unusual intimacy, when he heard him whisper: "That day... what happened after you sent London back? Ottawa said he saw you passing the aisle in rags..."

New York turned his head as if he couldn't bear to think about it, remained silent for two or three seconds, and replied: "Because I wanted to use force to push him onto the bed, he regarded me as a Viking... and clamored to take off my skull and play it as a ball." ..."

"……sorry."

"Don't say sorry. He's drunk by himself, it's none of your business."

"I should have been there. I should try to make it up to you..."

"Then can you..." New York stopped immediately, quickly shook his head as if eager to deny his last thought, looked into Washington's golden-brown eyes and smiled, "No. I had a good time playing with him, in the future Still a good memory."

Eastern Front.Moscow put down the microphone, looked at the statue of St. George slaying the dragon hanging on the opposite wall of the office, and laughed softly.

Brest asked: "New good news from New York?"

"No. I just made a very interesting suggestion, and I plan to accept it——at the end of this year or early next year, I will make an unofficial visit to China." He leaned back on the chair with ease, crossed his hands, "In my own name. "

---------------------------------------

Note 1: After the signing of the "French-German Armistice Agreement" in 1940, the French navy was ordered to concentrate in the port of Toulon to disarm.In order to prevent the French navy from threatening Britain in the future, after the British failed to ask the French naval formations to join the British side or disarm the British side, the navies of the two sides exchanged fire many times, which caused the Vichy government to completely turn against the British. After the ceasefire in French North Africa against the Allied invasion in 1942, the German navy surrounded the port of Toulon.The French navy in the port of Toulon rejected British aid and chose to sink collectively, and the French navy perished.

Note 2: Dietrich von Choltitz, the commander of the defending German army, decided to surrender after the Allied forces issued an ultimatum, and did not implement Hitler's order to defend and destroy Paris.

Note 3: See Joseph Kessel's essay "That Night I Saw Paris".This article was written on the eve of the liberation of Paris.

Note 4: See the chapter "Growing Vegetables" in Steinbeck's "Essays on the Battlefield": "They usually boil the vegetables into a rotten and sticky paste, as some people say, the shape and taste of the vegetables have long been boiled.  … No one has explained the reasons for the innate dislike of vegetables in the English people."

Note 5: The "before" here refers to the British occupation of New Amsterdam, a colony of the Netherlands during the Second Anglo-Dutch War.After the war, New Amsterdam was officially recognized as belonging to the United Kingdom and was renamed New York.

Note 6: The Siegfried Line is a fortification system built by Germany on the western border against the French Maginot Line before the start of World War II, extending from the border with the Netherlands to Switzerland.

Note 7: After Germany blitzed Poland in the early days of World War II, both Germany and France deployed heavy troops on the Siegfried Line and the Maginot Line.In the next 8 months, the troops in the defense line just sat quietly on the opposite side, hardly firing a single shot.The superior French army did not attack the Western Front at that time, which was considered by later generations to have missed a great opportunity.

The 1944 scene is coming to an end, and the countdown to the end...
