When China found out about this and Wesley issued an invitation, as a country, it was necessary to make a sound internationally. Naturally, Taizu agreed readily. Moreover, Wesley was very happy that China sent Duke Zhou. He had been fascinated by Duke Zhou’s charm for a long time.
With his personal charm and political wisdom, Duke Zhou worked together internationally and opened up a difficult situation for China. How could such a figure not be admired? Moreover, when he died, many foreign countries lowered their flags to pay their respects, which showed his achievements.
Churchill took a warship to the United States, and Wesley naturally did not think of taking a plane. Instead, he used a sub-fleet and used the aircraft carrier as a flagship to return. Zhou Gong brought the team with him.
“General.” Chow and Wesley are walking on the deck.
“Just call me Wesley,” Wesley said with a smile.
“Well, Wesley, the military power of the United States is indeed strong. In terms of this fleet, only the British fleet can compare, right?” Duke Zhou’s words have hidden meanings.
Wesley, on the other hand, smiled proudly. “The British fleet can’t compare with the American fleet. After all, they do have more battleships than us. Although their performance is similar, they have the advantage in numbers. However, they are too far behind in aircraft carriers. And the current naval battles are more done with carrier aircraft. In the future, the form of naval battles will be the same. So if we really fight, I can destroy them easily.”
“I see. China is too far behind. I hope that the American allies can help more.” Only then did Duke Zhou say his thoughts.
“Naturally. Since we have formed an alliance, the United States will not leave China alone. The shipbuilding industry must develop. As I said, Asia needs a strong China, just as the Americas needs a strong America. Although the relationship between countries is about interests, I believe in the morality of the Chinese. Our two countries will work together to maintain the best situation in the world and in normal times.” Wesley said it so much that he was disgusted, but that was what he meant.
“That’s right. Together, our two great countries will definitely be able to maintain world peace and China’s rise is inevitable. We are also very confident about this. Besides, what do you think about this meeting?”
“The purpose of this meeting is to form an alliance. It is an alliance between our Pacific Union and the Allies. This is inevitable. We can’t watch Germany and the Soviet Union defeat Britain. That is not in our interest. However, we need to talk about how to fight them. Moreover, China will inevitably participate in the war, and the military adaptation is necessary. Your equipment is very chaotic now, and it is not good for logistics. I think we should make a good plan. The formal weapons and ammunition caliber of China and the United States is a good choice. After all, as allies, there will be a lot of cooperation in the future, and it is necessary to simplify logistics.”
“It should be like this, but…” Duke Zhou found it difficult to speak. There were many things to do at the beginning of the country.
“Don’t worry, Duke Zhou, the aid team is almost ready. The cost will be paid by the United States. This is free assistance. We will talk about it after the war. Now everything is based on the premise of war, and we will not be at a disadvantage.” Wesley smiled a little slyly, but Duke Zhou also understood that this was to get back at the defeated country, so he was relieved.
Nothing happened on the way back to the United States, and the Chinese delegation was warmly welcomed. Then the group went to Washington, and Churchill arrived. The three-party talks were about to begin.
Wesley naturally had to introduce Duke Zhou to Roosevelt, and China and the United States were allies. The two sides also had to discuss their bottom line so that they could talk to the representatives of the Allies. Although the Allies had many countries, they were all small and useless. It was better to watch the big countries play.
After the two sides drew up the contents of the negotiations, the three-party talks began. Churchill, the fat man, sat on one side smoking a cigar, and China and the United States sat together, making their attitude clear. Churchill was very unhappy about this. After all, China was originally their place to call the shots. Now the situation has changed. Britain now has no influence in Asia except for the colonies. They can’t care about the colonies at all now. With the alliance between China and the United States, China will inevitably rise. The right to dominate Asia is predictable. He kept thinking about it, but Roosevelt spoke first.
“Mr. Prime Minister, what is the purpose of coming to the United States this time?” Although he asked the obvious, China and the United States would not speak first about cooperation, and Churchill knew that he could not stand it and could only respond.
“The alliance between Germany and the Soviet Union is not good news for the world. I think it’s time for the United States to join the war, or the world will be uneasy,” Churchill said.
Roosevelt smiled. “The United States is a peace-loving country, as are our allies. Moreover, the Soviet-German alliance is not the slightest threat to the United States and Asia.”
“Is there really no threat? Will they let the United States continue to grow? They want to rule the world. Even if they can’t do it now, they may be able to do it in the future. After all, Britain still has a deep understanding of the Navy.” Churchill was also a bachelor and directly threatened.
Wesley said, “The British Navy doesn’t look like much to me. The U.S. Navy now dares to say it’s the best in the world. The Prime Minister may not believe it, but we don’t care about that. And Hitler’s fear of the United States is well known. It’s not unreasonable.”
“General is indeed a genius. If the Allies are defeated, then the huge sum of money owed to your country will be gone.”
“That’s a problem.” Wesley rubbed his chin thoughtfully. These are just exercises, and now we’re getting to the point. Duke Zhou didn’t say anything. He has never experienced a national negotiation, so he naturally has to learn. But now there is no grand statement, and we talk about money directly. He has seen it. “It seems that in order to guarantee the interests of the United States, we really need to join this war. And our Chinese allies still have a lot of land occupied by the Soviets. We can’t allow that. We have to take it back.”
Churchill thought for a moment and then said, “Naturally, there is no problem with the alliance.”
“The Azores is very important for the safety of the United States. I think the Prime Minister can understand that. Moreover, the United States needs a transit station to transport supplies and soldiers to Europe. This place is very suitable,” Wesley said again.
This time, Churchill had to consider it carefully. Just now, China had taken back their territory. It was too far away and they could not control it at all. It was not a condition. And the Atlantic Islands needed to be considered. After all, this was also their defense barrier.
“Okay, but we need American assistance.”
“Sure. Since we have to fight together, it’s inevitable to help friends,” Wesley said. The two sides reached an agreement, and then there was the specific bargaining. Moreover, both sides wanted to form an alliance, so it was inevitable that they would finally reach an agreement.
