mixed in the war

"This is a letter of protest from the Chinese embassy!"

White House.

Secretary of State Herne handed a document to Roosevelt.After Edgar Hoover was severely scolded by Hu Shi, he escaped from the Chinese embassy in embarrassment. By the way, he had to leave the two military command agents at Hu Shi's place... Then, Hu Shi personally drafted the A letter of protest was handed over to the U.S. State Department and into his hands.

Hu Shi is a master, a master in literature, this protest is written so cruelly... After Hull finished reading it, he almost thought that there was some mortal enmity between himself and Hu Shi.Of course, he didn't know there was such a description, but the meanings are similar, anyway, that's what happened... The US "government" was scolded, and it was scolded by the Chinese ambassador, and he couldn't even speak back.

"Hoover has already reported it to me." Roosevelt took the protest letter and threw it aside: "He has verified it with the Los Angeles Police Department, and it turns out that the two so-called Chinese agents he captured were indeed in Los Angeles at the time. In the detention center, and on the day Oppenheimer and Enrique Fermi were killed, they beat up several guys in the detention room. One of them was a well-known thug in the local gang in Los Angeles. The result was this thug, After he was released from prison, he coughed up blood non-stop, and even the doctors couldn’t do anything about it... Now rumors of Chinese masters are still circulating in the gangs in Los Angeles, and many gangsters are staying away from Chinatown!...My God!"

"It's very similar to a legendary movie that eliminates evil and promotes good." Hull smacked his lips, humoring him.

"I think even our Chief Hoover is afraid... because he seems to have been alone with those two Chinese people. Fortunately, they have the means to prevent everything, otherwise, I may have to find someone else Going to preside over the FBI." Roosevelt also smiled wryly.

"Prevention?" Hull blinked, "So, you still think it was done by the Chinese?"

"If the Chinese didn't come up with so much technology in a short period of time, then I certainly wouldn't doubt the result. But now it's at least 80.00% possible." Roosevelt said, "Of course, I don't rule out people from other countries. The "possibility" of attacking. But the Chinese are still the most suspected one."[

"But we don't have any evidence now." Hull said, "People from the Chinese embassy notified their consulate in Los Angeles first, and have already obtained the relevant records of the two Chinese who were detained in the Los Angeles Police Department...Of course , and they are now protesting to the LAPD because those two were arrested purely for reason."

"Ignore them. Continue to detain the remaining planes!" Roosevelt said.

"But we don't have evidence, to do this..."

"Let people from the War Department go to Grumman and say that the army should give priority to purchasing [-] 'Hellcats' to ensure the safety of the United States. I believe they will be happy." Roosevelt laughed.

"I'm all for the idea. But it would also piss off the Chinese...they're desperately needing these planes right now to defend their airspace and deter the Japanese," Hull replied.

"The energy of the Japanese is now in Siberia. They are fighting against the Soviet Union. They have no time or energy to trouble the Chinese. If this is the case, what does it matter if these fighter jets are delivered later?" Roosevelt spread his hands, "What's more Now the Chinese have taken the upper hand. They have even sent troops to occupy the colonies of the French.. We should not add to their courage. Also, I remember that the Vichy "government" presided over by Pétain seems to be only against China The behavior of people protested for a while. Didn’t they have any follow-up measures?”

"No." Hale shrugged. "According to the agreement with the Germans, they now only have 10 armed forces, and they can only barely maintain order in their own country... The rest of the things need to support the Germans in their conquest. How can they still have the energy to fight against the Chinese? ? Instead, the 'Free France' led by General Charles de Gaulle kept expressing dissatisfaction with the Chinese, and even tried to win over the British. Unfortunately, London is now being bombed by German planes. There is also no time to help them. "

"We should have gone to war." Roosevelt sighed.The situation in Europe is so bad that it makes his heart twitch... The United States should seize this opportunity and become the biggest winner of this world war.It's a pity those people in Congress always feel that doing this will not help the United States at all, just like the last time they went to war.Wasn't it being tricked by the joint efforts of Britain and France, without any real benefits?

"We are expanding our military to prepare for war." Hull certainly understands this partner's thoughts, "The navy has been expanded, and we have also passed the Burke-Wadsworth conscription law... everything is moving in the 'good' direction .But there is a problem, that is, whether the next president will support the United States to enter the war!"

"Yes, the next one..." Roosevelt did not respond to his companion's temptation, he was silent for a while before looking back at Hull, "Can you help us and call Buckley?"

"Member Alben Buckley?" Hull asked.

"Yes." Roosevelt nodded.

"Then it seems that I don't need to walk too long. When I came in just now, I saw that guy had already arrived. Now, he must be outside the door." Hull laughed.

"That's great. But I still trouble you." Roosevelt smiled.

"You are welcome."[

Hull knew that Roosevelt didn't want him to know what he was about to talk to Alben Buckley, and he didn't bother with it... A politician just needs to know how to advance and retreat.So he just smiled at Roosevelt, turned and walked out of the Oval Office.And not long after he walked out, an old man with few "hairs" on his head walked in.

"Sit by yourself." Roosevelt was not polite to the visitor, just smiled and pointed to the sofa next to him.

"Franklin, what on earth did you call me here for?" Alben Buckley was a highly influential senator in the U.S. Senate, the majority leader in the Senate, and later Truman's vice president.And now, because of their firm support for Roosevelt's "New Deal" and other measures, the relationship between the two is quite good.

"I want you to do me a favor." Roosevelt laughed.

"Should I say it's my pleasure?" Alben Barkley asked with a smile.

"Haha, it's up to you..." Roosevelt laughed twice and then stopped: "I want you to make a statement for me: I will not participate in this year's presidential election again."

"..."

************************************************** ********************

"Why hasn't his fiancé come here yet? It's just for getting married, don't you need to be so shameless?"

chongqing.

That's when Roosevelt told Alben Buckley of his "decision."However, the Bai Mansion is throwing a big banquet.More than a dozen tables were placed in the courtyard of the mansion, filled with food and wine, while Qin Wei in military uniform and Zhou Tian in the same attire were standing at the entrance of the mansion waiting for the guests... I'm busy, but I promised the beauty that I will definitely do it.Taking advantage of meeting and chatting with some people to discuss things, the invitation was sent out.And today is the day of the wedding banquet.

"I don't know who added the phrase 'bring your own generous gift' at the back of the invitation... Do you dare to come if you ask for money?" Zheng Pingru, who was a bridesmaid by Zhou Tian's side, listened to Qin Wei's soliloquy, and couldn't bear it. Can't help muttering.

"What do you mean? If you don't need money today, you will lose money if you give gifts in the future?" Qin Wei rolled his eyes in disdain.

"Really? I don't know who didn't even bring a penny when they attended the engagement banquet." Zhou Tian laughed.

"Yes, I know about it. I heard that someone later blamed others for not stating that they would bring a gift on the invitation. It's really a shame!" Zheng Pingru was a bridesmaid, a truly beautiful girl, and Qin Wei's best man is also a real "wolf", Dai Li, the head of the military command!The name was associated with the wedding banquet, even Qin Wei himself felt a little panicked.But he can know all of Chongqing.He is still single at the moment, and this is the only one who can set off the "handsome and handsome" of his groom.I believe that after other people see Dai Li.Will be more willing to pay attention to him.But Zheng Pingru's side is different.The same Meijiao Niang, who is quite different from Zhou Tian, ​​will surely attract many people... This saves him a lot of worries.

"Don't say that. If you want a gift, you have to mark it! I learned the lesson of the Confucius family, so I specifically marked the request for a gift on the invitation card, and I also specifically stated that I want a 'good' gift..." Qin Wei has a thick skin.He didn't care about the ridicule of the three, "This kind of practice is called magnanimity. Confucius said, 'A gentleman is magnanimous' and 'magnificent'. Do you understand?"

"I understand! The reason I'm only a lieutenant general until now is because I'm not as thick-skinned as you are." Dai Li shook his head and sighed. People in their 40s still have to be brought in as best man. I don't know how depressing it is.But he really couldn't do anything about Qin Wei... Especially after the [-]th anniversary commemorative meeting of the military reunification last time, he clearly felt Lao Jiang's fear of him.This forced him to hold Qin Wei's thigh even tighter.And he also had to admit that this brat who was trembling in front of him at the beginning has already surpassed his level.Even in his opinion, Qin Wei is a figure who can remain optimistic in any environment and rise again.Lao Jiang actually wanted to send this kid to Yunnan, thinking that he would be able to temporarily stop this kid's development... That's basically letting the tiger go back to the mountain, okay?

"drop--"

Qin Wei was about to refute Dai Li's "slander" against him, but was interrupted by the sudden sound of a car horn, and then a car appeared on the road in front of the Bai mansion.He was about to go up to meet him, but saw that the car door had been opened, and Zhou Enlai, dressed in military uniform, walked over with a gift box in his arms, smiling:

"Commander Qin, congratulations—"

"Minister Zhou?" Qin Wei's face froze suddenly, "That... I didn't invite you, did I?"

"Can't you come without an invitation? Don't you blame me for being so polite!" Zhou Enlai didn't feel dissatisfied at all because of these words, he still smiled and gave Qin Wei the gift box he was holding in his arms: "According to Qin Wei Commander's request, this is a special gift we specially prepared!"

"Great gift?" You guys are so poor, what kind of gift can you have?Qin Wei really wanted to curl his lips, but he couldn't bring up the courage to do so in front of Zhou Enlai... But he was also curious, how "decent" Zhou Enlai's gift could be? (To be continued..)
