Lost and Spy

Chapter 1757 Between Friends
"It's a pity, Mr. Consul General, Americans have never regarded us Chinese as true friends!"

When Meng Shaoyuan said this, Bonanu was startled: "Meng, what do you mean?"

"What do you mean? Do you really need me to say it?" Meng Shaoyuan said indifferently: "China has been fighting hard to protect our country. It is not an exaggeration to say that we are protecting the justice and peace of the world.

China is very poor, and there is a gap in strength between Japan and Japan.So we need support from outside forces.From the beginning of the war, the Soviet Union gave us great help, and then, the United States.

Regarding the United States, you said, how should we thank you?Europe first, Europe first, Asia later, this is your national policy, right? "

Bonannu nodded.

This is something he cannot deny.

Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "The U.S. government was afraid that China would not be able to withstand the pressure and lose victory in the war, so it gave China the first aid, which was a tung oil loan. China exported 2500 barrels of tung oil to the United States while receiving a loan of 22 million US dollars. Last year, the Chinese government secured a total of 4500 million US dollars with tin ore and tungsten sand as guarantees.

For every sum of money borrowed by the United States, the national government has given a guarantee.However, European countries do not have any restrictions in this regard. Is this what friends do?

Our country is poor and desperately needs support from all countries.Let me do the math for you. From last year to this year, the U.S. aid to Britain was 9.99 million U.S. dollars. What about China?

friend?How can this be considered a friend?Mr. Consul General, I don't mean to offend you, but don't you think this is a joke? "

Bonannu was a little embarrassed.

This information is very accurate, and there is no error in the numbers.

But he really didn't know how to answer it.

"I know you can't make the decision, Mr. Consul General." Meng Shaoyuan sighed softly: "However, I hope you can put forward our proposal to Mr. Roosevelt and tell the true thoughts of the Chinese people.

We will hold on until the end and not a single soldier will surrender, with or without aid.Chinese people are not beggars and will never be beggars. We are fighting for the freedom and independence of our own nation!

If we lose this war in the end, it is not just a country's sorrow, but the failure of the world's anti-fascist war!The situation in the Far East will change completely as a result!
Please the United States, please President Roosevelt, and please people all over the world to take a good look at how many Japanese troops we have contained. What if these Japanese troops can all be devoted to fighting against the United States? "

Bonanu didn't speak, didn't say a word, he listened carefully to what Meng Shaoyuan said:
"It's not just as simple as mobilizing troops, but the materials of the whole of China. You can imagine that China, which has lost the war, will be forced to join the war against Japan with all the manpower and material resources of the whole of China." What would that look like in an American war?
Aid to China is not only helping you, but also helping the United States.We will continue to fight here.No matter how much aid you give us, with or without aid, this is our own war.However, the United States has also reached the moment of choice! "

He's done talking.

It's rare for him to speak so seriously, but this time he did it.

Not for myself, but for this country.

Bonanu took out the cigar, twirled it for a while, and then said: "Meng, I will pass on what you said to President Roosevelt intact. I don't know what kind of decision Mr. President and Congress will make. , but what I can guarantee is that I will do my best to tell everyone what happened in China.

I will also do everything possible, using my own influence, and my friends in the political and business circles, to ensure greater assistance to China.This is not an official response, but a promise between friends. This is my respect for China's persistence in the war of resistance until now. "

"Thank you, Mr. Consul General." Meng Shaoyuan smiled slightly: "I trust you because of my friend's trust."

Bonanu is really ready to do as he promised.

What Meng Shaoyuan said was correct. Once China loses the victory in this war, it will inevitably be a defeat for the whole world.

The United States can't bear it, and the whole world can't bear it either.

"Ah, yes, Meng." Bonanu suddenly remembered something: "I have brought all the things you asked me to bring to the United States last time, and Ms. Peng Bilan you appointed signed for them."

Meng Shaoyuan nodded.

That is my baby.

He actually didn't care about these things.

Whether it is the American Consul General or the Soviet Consul General, they are all part of his overall plan.

He blinked: "Mr. Consul General, I have a personal matter, can you please?"

"Please say."

"I need a visa, a visa from the US consulate." Meng Shaoyuan said his purpose: "This visa is slightly different from the visas you usually issue."

"What about it?"

"This visa can give the holder greater rights. For example, he can go to many places without being checked. For example, he has more privileges in the United States, or places with American interests."

Meng Shaoyuan said unhurriedly: "But I can guarantee that those who hold this visa will not do anything that harms the interests of the United States."

"I think what you said may be beyond the scope of the visa, but?" Bonanu thought for a while: "It's like the special pass you issued."

"Yes, that's exactly what it means." Meng Shaoyuan admitted frankly.

Bonanu smiled: "It seems that there is no such precedent here, but I will try it. Ah, this visa, no, who is the name on the special pass?"

"Can you leave the name blank for me?"

"No, that won't work."

Bonanu flatly refused this time.

Meng Shaoyuan stopped talking, as if he was making a difficult choice.

After a long, long time, he said: "This is a secret, a secret that I have kept for a long time. But I have to tell you now because I need this visa. His surname is Tian, ​​and his name is Tian Qi!"

Tianqi?

Bonanu suddenly thought of something: "Is this Tian Qi you are talking about, that Tian Qi?"

"Yes, it's him." Meng Shaoyuan's voice became a little low: "Maybe he will use another name, can you keep this secret for me?"

"Tian Qi? On the visa, he won't be called Tian Qi, is he, Mr. Meng?"

Meng Shaoyuan laughed. He laughed very happily.
