I am Jiang Weiguo in World War II

I need you to understand that this special envoy directly represents the Führer himself, and his words, attitudes, and thoughts are equivalent to what the Führer himself wants to say to you, what he wants to express to you, and what he wants to explain to you!"

"Oh?" Jiang Weiguo was very surprised, "Please let that special envoy come over!" Cannibalism is soft and short-handed, Jiang Weiguo must attach great importance to the special envoy sent by Hitler.

Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Weiguo received Hitler's special envoy very politely in his office. This special envoy was a very typical German elderly man, about seventy years old, tall, hale and hearty, with a hooked nose and two curls With a bushy William II-style beard and a pair of gray-blue eyes that are not only piercing but also sharp and deep, his gestures and gestures exude a special temperament that is a mixture of scholars and soldiers.

"This is the president of the German Academy of Sciences, Mr. Karl Haushofer, who is deeply trusted and valued by the head of state!" Taudman introduced respectfully, and he looked at Jiang Weiguo, "Little Mr. Jiang, Haushofer Mister is actually the head of the Führer's think tank!"

Jiang Weiguo smiled and nodded to Haushofer and shook hands with him.

"Talk slowly, I'll take my leave first!" Taudman smiled and prepared to go out.

"Mr. Taudman!" Jiang Weiguo hurriedly called him, "If you don't stay here, how can I communicate with Mr. Haushofer? I need you as an interpreter, I don't know German!"

"I can speak Chinese!" Haushofer said with a smile, "So, Mr. Jiang, our communication is no problem, and what we are going to discuss next is high-level secrets. It is not convenient for Ambassador Taudman to be present. !"

Jiang Weiguo was suddenly surprised again.

After Taudman left, only Jiang Weiguo and Haushofer were left in Jiang Weiguo's office.

Jiang Weiguo is not very familiar with this Haushofer. In fact, this person is by no means an idle person. If Jiang Baili is "the chief architect of China's War of Resistance Against Japan", then this Haushofer is "Germany launched the war". Chief Architect of World War II".

Haushofer was born in the military and received a purely German-style military education. He has excellent academic performance and is considered an elite member who can enter the German General Staff. He participated in World War I as an artillery brigade commander and traveled the world after the war. While continuing to study, he has profound attainments in military science, strategy, political science, history, geography, geology and many other fields. He has been to various countries in the East and has mastered French, Russian, Korean, Japanese and Chinese.

When Hitler just started to struggle, Haushofer met him and became a close friend. His thoughts deeply influenced Hitler and became the "spiritual mentor" of Hitler and the Nazi Party. He, who appointed him president of the German Academy of Sciences, regarded it as his chief think tank.

Originally, Hitler was extremely anti-Semitic, and Haushofer's wife and father-in-law were all Jewish, but Hitler specifically announced that Haushofer's wife, father-in-law and his children were "honorary Aryans", which shows that , Hitler's trust in him is indeed extraordinary.

In later generations, Haushofer was known as "the man behind Hitler" and "the man who created Hitler spiritually". Rudolf Hess, the number two figure of the Nazi Party and deputy head of state, was directly his direct student.

"Little Mr. Jiang..." Haushofer looked at Jiang Weiguo with a special look, "You may be wondering why the head of state sent me to find you instead of your father. The reason is that you and we both know it well.

Although your position in the Chinese military and political circles is not high, your special status and your current influence have made you an important decision-maker in the Chinese military and political circles, and we also know that your international stance is very pro-German Yes, it can be said that you are the number one pro-German figure in China's top management and the leader of the pro-German faction in China's top management, so the effect of finding you is far better than directly looking for your father!"

Jiang Weiguo smiled, noncommittal.

"We are all smart people, so let's get straight to the point!" Haushofer is proficient in Chinese and uses idioms proficiently (in the original history, when Nazi Germany was about to fall, he often used the idiom "riding a tiger is hard to get off" to describe himself and Germany as a whole), "the current world order is very unstable, like a crumbling building full of holes, collapse and collapse are inevitable, and a new one will inevitably rise from the ruins of the old building. Buildings, a new world order, old powers are declining, new powers are rising, all powers want to carve up the biggest piece of cake in this chaotic world, and even want to dominate the whole world, so a new world war is simply impossible Avoid!" Haushofer looked at Jiang Weiguo, "I feel very much that Europe and the world at this time are very similar to your Warring States period in China, where the powers were divided and the heroes competed for the throne. Of course, it is more complicated. That's all, but the core laws remain the same. A broken China is definitely not the best state for China, and a broken world is certainly not the best state for the world.

If the current world were a stage, the main players would be the seven great powers of Germany, China, the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain, France, and Japan, right?Just like the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period!"

Jiang Weiguo laughed again. He knew that Haushofer was "promoting" China. After all, China's current national strength among the "Seven Great Powers" is the last one.

"You ignored Italy!" Jiang Weiguo laughed.

Haushofer showed an expression of "Your Excellency, why deliberately pretend to be confused in front of smart people": "Italy is strong outside but has low potential. It is really not a big country that can affect the development of the world structure. To be honest, the head of state agrees with you very much. Opinion, there is no need for Germany to form an alliance with Italy, because an independent Italy will only hinder Germany, just like during the last world war, Germany should directly control (mean occupation, not annexation) Italy!"

When Jiang Weiguo met Hitler last time, he "suggested" that Germany directly control Italy, and Hitler's attitude was more inclined.

The relationship between Hitler and Mussolini was by no means "hardcore brothers". There were great discords between the two and the two countries.

Because Mussolini first established totalitarian rule in Italy, Hitler did learn some of Mussolini's experience when establishing Nazi Germany, and Hitler also admired and admired Mussolini's eloquence and ability, plus Mussolini Linisel came from high regard and arrogance, so Mussolini unceremoniously claimed that he was the godfather and founder of fascism, and Hitler was just his "a schoolboy". "Imitators" even said in private that Hitler was just "a stupid little monkey". What Mussolini achieved was beyond his reach.

At the beginning, Hitler had the ability to control Italy, but he respected Mussolini, so he did not act. Later, Hitler had no suitable opportunity to attack Italy and could only exercise indirect control.

In general, Mussolini despised Hitler at first, and later became jealous of Hitler. Hitler was well aware of this, but in order to "consider the overall situation", he held back Mussolini's boredom.

Right now, after Jiang Weiguo's "reminder" and various "butterfly effects", Hitler is already very inclined to the strategic plan of "directly controlling Italy".

"Mr. Haushofer, you should go straight to the point!" Jiang Weiguo signaled.

"Okay!" Haushofer nodded, "Mr. Jiang, the reason why Britain can establish the British Empire, which claims that the sun never sets, is actually the product of Alfred Mahan's 'Sea Power Theory' and Proof, however, I think that Halford Mackinder's 'Land Power Theory' is the guiding ideology of a real great empire, and a real land country can have a more vigorous and lasting power in the industrial age than a sea country. Vitality and power endowment.

Mr. Xiao Jiang, I can tell you very frankly that I was originally a "pro-Japanese faction" in the German high-level, because the head of state, like me, divided the world into three spatial plates, namely Germany Europe and Africa dominated by the US, America dominated by the United States, and Greater East Asia dominated by Japan covering China, India, Southeast Asia, and Australia. Therefore, I actively promote the alliance of Germany and Japan to jointly create the "three major spaces" To fight for a new world' new order, control of the Soviet Union and China was the first step.

My first ideal was an alliance between Germany and the Soviet Union, where the two land powers opposed the United States and Britain, the two sea powers. The ideology is something Germany cannot identify with.

However, my ideal has changed again now, because I have discovered a more ingenious and perfect new world pattern plan!" (Note: In the original history, Nazi Germany never had a war plan to completely occupy the entire Eurasian continent , and never thought of conquering the Americas and the Pacific Ocean. In other words, Nazi Germany’s war goal was to control all of Europe and parts of Africa, rather than unifying the world or establishing a global multi-ethnic empire like the British Empire.

The so-called "living space of the three major powers", Germany just wants to obtain its own "space", and has no interest in the "space" of the United States and Japan; The border Ural Mountains, there is no plan to occupy or manage the Asian lands east of the Ural Mountains, either let the Japanese occupy it, or drive the Bolshevik party to the desolate Siberia to fend for itself.

）

Jiang Weiguo lit a cigarette, squinted his eyes: "You continue!"

Haushofer nodded again, and his eyes flickered with a kind of fanaticism: "Mr. Jiang, I think that among the many great powers, taking the seven great powers as an example, they can be divided into two types. One is a regional power, that is, Germany, Britain, France, and Japan, and the other is a continental power, that is, China, the United States, and the Soviet Union.

Although Germany, Britain, France, and Japan each have their own strong advantages, they are naturally only regional countries, because the land area of ​​these four countries is indeed too small, the population is indeed too small, and their development potential is limited. The three countries of China, the United States and the Soviet Union are extremely vast and have extremely large populations. , The development potential far exceeds that of Germany, Britain, France, and Japan. Land, resources, and population are equal to the development potential of a country.

I really appreciate what you said in front of Hitler, 'No matter how skinny a tiger is, it's still a tiger!No matter how strong a mad dog is, it is still a mad dog', yes, Germany is like a wolf, it can train itself to be very strong, but it is still a strong wolf, it cannot fight a tiger, this is determined by its innate physique, just It seems that no matter how hard the yellow people exercise, they cannot beat the white people in weightlifting, boxing, rugby, basketball and other competitions that mainly rely on physical strength. This is also determined by their innate physique.

If Germany and Japan form an alliance to fight against the United States and the Soviet Union, it will be two regional powers against two continental powers, and the outcome can be imagined.

Therefore..." He looked at Jiang Weiguo with blazing eyes, "Germany and Japan need China to join us!"

Jiang Weiguo took a puff of smoke, and he already understood what Haushofer meant. In fact, Haushofer was informally proposing to China (Jiang Weiguo) the "Germany, China and Japan Triple Alliance" for the first time on behalf of Hitler. strategic proposal.

Haushofer is a pro-Japanese faction in the German high-level. At this time, he has become both pro-Japanese and pro-China. Although he is also pro-China, he still does not give up his pro-Japanese thinking.

Haushofer saw that Jiang Weiguo did not speak, and continued to talk: "Originally, I had the idea of ​​'four major spaces' in my conception of the new world order. In addition to Germany, the United States, Japan, and the Soviet Union, because if Germany wants to deal with The United States, Britain, and France cannot rely on Japan, let alone Italy. There must be a continent-level power. Among the three continent-level powers, China, the United States, and the Soviet Union, the United States is the enemy, and China is too weak. It is still part of Japan's living space, so I and Germany Many political scientists are optimistic about the Soviet Union. The three major powers of Germany, Japan and the Soviet Union divided Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania equally, completely excluded the United Kingdom on the British Isles, and completely isolated the United States on the Americas.

Today, the current situation of the Sino-Japanese war has deeply changed my mind. The Japanese army, I mean the Japanese army, is strong, but not strong enough. China is weak, but not unreliable, and China is born to be a continent-level A big country with great development potential. If Germany, China, and Japan join forces, even against the United States, Britain, France, and the Soviet Union, they will be invincible! "He blushed.

Jiang Weiguo laughed: "Okay, let's turn our enemies into friends with the Japanese? Okay, you let the Japanese withdraw their troops from China completely, and return the Northeast and Taiwan to Zhao. By the way, there are also the Korean Peninsula and the former Chinese vassal states. The Ryukyu Islands must also be returned, ah, and the Nanhuatai area (that is, the southern half of Sakhalin Island south of [-] degrees north latitude, and Sakhalin Island is divided equally between the Soviet Union and Japan at this time, the north belongs to the Soviet Union, and the south belongs to Japan) , the same must be returned, and finally, don’t forget to ask the Japanese to compensate us tens of billions of dollars, these bastards have caused us so many disasters, sufferings, and pains, how can we not lose money?”

Haushofer smiled and seemed not surprised: "I know that it is extremely difficult for China and Japan to shake hands and make peace, but we still want to try our best.

Mr. Jiang, between countries, interests are fundamental. China and Japan have extremely deep-rooted ethnic hatred. We are very clear about this, but if China and Japan have the same interests, then cooperation, or temporarily Why not sexual cooperation?Germany, China, Japan, the United States, Britain, France, and the Soviet Union, among the seven major countries, Germany, Britain, France, and the Soviet Union have irreconcilable conflicts of interest, and the United States has always been in cahoots with Britain and France. Therefore, in addition to China and Japan, Germany and the other four countries are all Japan and the Soviet Union are mortal enemies, and relations with the United States, Britain and France are not good, especially the United States and Japan are competitors in the Pacific Ocean; as for China, China’s enemy is Japan, and the Soviet Union is also China’s mortal enemy. There is not much conflict of interest with China, but Britain and France occupy the Southeast Asian countries that originally belonged to China. In other words, Britain and France have annexed a large amount of living space in China, and Britain still occupies your Hong Kong at this time.

Mr. Jiang, I believe you can see that the interests of Germany, China and Japan are generally the same. Germany and China are friends, and Germany and Japan basically have no hatred. We can forgive Japan for taking advantage of us during the last world war Looting, as for China and Japan, as long as you let go of your hatred and start temporary cooperation, then the three-nation alliance of Germany, China and Japan will come naturally.

Why did Japan invade China?Because it wants to expand and obtain a broad living space. If cooperation with China can allow it to obtain a broader living space, the Japanese high-level officials will definitely be willing.

Mr. Jiang, isn't it? "

Jiang Weiguo threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, and said coldly: "Hate cannot be let go.

The Japanese owe us countless blood debts, and unless Japan is destroyed by us, this blood debt cannot be truly written off.

It is impossible for China and Japan to coexist peacefully, only one can survive, it's as simple as that!"

Haushofer seemed very calm, obviously he had made sufficient preparations before coming: "We understand your belief in revenge and the Chinese very well, but you don't have a navy, and Germany doesn't have a real water surface." Fleet, at most you can only drive the Japanese out of the East Asian continent, and then look at their four native islands with nothing to do!" He smiled slightly, "Japan is an island country, and Japan has the third largest navy in the world, so you fight Japan like this. If you continue, you will not be able to completely revenge in the end!"

"I actually have a solution to this point!" Jiang Weiguo said plainly. He did have a solution. His plan was to occupy the Korean Peninsula and establish a strategic bomber force of the Chinese Air Force, such as [-] or even [-] strategic bombers. Then, the strategic bombing of the Japanese mainland will be launched endlessly. At that time, even if the Chinese army cannot land on the Japanese mainland, it will still be able to destroy Japan, because strategic bombers can not only drop conventional bombs, gas bombs, and bacterial bombs, but also throw atomic bomb.

If Jiang Weiguo's idea can be realized, even if the Chinese army does not have a strong navy, it can use the air force and atomic bombs to destroy Japan.

Haushofer smiled relievedly: "Mr. Jiang, I know your plan.

Let's get back to talking!Regarding this war between China and Japan, we in Germany support China, and at the same time feel sorry, because both China and Japan can become friends and comrades-in-arms of Germany. Seeing our two potential allies consume their respective national strength in mutual vendetta, how can we Can you not be heartbroken?To deal with the Soviet Union, we need a strong army, and the German army alone is still somewhat stretched. Adding the Chinese army or the Japanese army, preferably the Chinese and Japanese army, is more than enough; to deal with the United States, Britain and France, we also need a navy, but China does not have a navy. Neither did Germany.

Mr. Jiang, we hope that the three-nation alliance of Germany, China and Japan will be like this - all three countries will send out the army, Germany will provide the air force and technology, Japan will provide the navy, and China will provide resources. This combination is perfect.

Japan's navy and shipbuilding industry are indeed what Germany needs, and it is also what China needs!" He looked closely at Jiang Weiguo, "If China can really defeat the Japanese army on the East Asian continent, then how much strength does the Chinese army have to keep up with it?" Germany beat the USSR together?Moreover, China is still held back by Japan. Japan will definitely turn to form an alliance with the Soviet Union, and even the United States, Britain and France. Germany and China are blocked on the coastline, and the Soviet Union is separated by land. How can the war continue?Mr. Jiang, doesn't China want to win more in this war and even gain enough living space for your Chinese nation?Do you not want to recover Siberia in the north and Southeast Asia in the south?Moreover, China also needs time to build and develop properly, doesn't it?If the war with Japan continues, how can China build and develop properly?Wouldn't it be a good thing for China to end the war early? "

Jiang Weiguo looked at Haushofer without saying a word, his thoughts boiling.

Haushofer was keenly aware that Jiang Weiguo began to waver slightly, and he immediately struck while the iron was hot: "Our idea is that the armies of Germany, China, and Japan attack the Soviet Union together, and the three countries divide up the Soviet Union. In this way, all three countries will become The land is a big country, and it is completely connected on land. If we go to war against the United States, Britain and France, what we need is the Japanese navy.

At that time, no matter how the battle situation changes, Germany, China and Japan will remain invincible.

China can take what it needs from Germany and Japan, gain precious time for construction and development, rectify well, and participate in the world war in the best condition!"

Jiang Weiguo lit a cigarette again: "It's a wonderful idea, but it's just a castle in the air, because it is almost impossible for us and the Japanese to turn enemies into friends, unless Japan is a vassal state of China!"

"No!" Haushofer showed a strange smile, "After the United States, Britain, France and the Soviet Union are eliminated, how about Germany helping China to eliminate Japan?"

Jiang Weiguo's heart suddenly moved, and he stared at Haushofer brightly: "How do you guarantee this? How do we know that you will not fight twice between China and Japan?" Jiang Weiguo is not a fool. The Germans in China People said in front of the Japanese, "After the United States, Britain, France and the Soviet Union are eliminated, Germany will help China to kill Japan." On the other hand, will the Germans say in front of the Japanese, "After the United States, Britain, France and the Soviet Union are eliminated, Germany will help Japan to kill China"?The Germans talk about people when they see people, and they talk about people when they see ghosts. China may die in the end without knowing how it died.

Haushofer smiled slightly: "Atom bomb!" He looked at Jiang Weiguo, "Germany will only cooperate with China in the research of atomic bombs, how about it? The German-Chinese atomic bomb development base is located in China.

Isn't this guarantee enough? "

Jiang Weiguo's heart turned into a storm, and he smoked a cigarette fiercely.

Haushofer made the final persuasion: "The contradictions between China and Japan are two major points. One is the sharp conflict of interests, and the other is the almost irreconcilable ethnic hatred. If the former reaches a consensus, the latter will be put aside temporarily. , China has no reason not to cooperate with Japan!" He leaned closer to Jiang Weiguo and said in a low voice, "You should understand that neither China nor Germany really regard Japan as an ally, but just use Japan. This so-called cooperation, It's just a mutual use, Germany and China are real allies who share weal and woe and help each other!"

Jiang Weiguo smoked the cigarette in his hand, and lit another: "At the very least, Japan must return the Northeast and Taiwan to China, otherwise, China will never cooperate with Japan, even if it is only a mutual use cooperation, we have nothing to do with Japan. People will never die!"

"I understand!" Haushofer nodded, "I'm going to Tokyo next!" He looked at Jiang Weiguo, "Little Mr. Jiang, you are a strategic genius, I think you can see farther Some, really!" He seemed very earnest.

Chapter 302 Insufficient stamina

After Haushofer left, Jiang Weiguo stayed up all night, thinking a lot.

First of all, it must be admitted that in the original history, although China was one of the victorious countries in World War II, it was really disheartened to win. Among the top four countries, China is just the follower of the other three countries and even the target of being exploited. The Yalta Conference is the most direct proof.

What Jiang Weiguo has been trying his best to do is to make his suffering motherland win this world war more smoothly and more perfectly, and to gain more benefits in the new post-war world pattern and new order.

Jiang Weiguo is actually taking a road with no choice. If he does nothing, "govern by doing nothing and stay out of the way", the final outcome of China will still be the same as in the original history. Then, first, Jiang Weiguo is extremely unwilling. Second, Jiang Weiguo asked himself that he had failed the "chance to change history" that God had given him.

Jiang Weiguo must do something, he wants to change history, but changing history is tantamount to "creating new history."

Jiang Weiguo is very pro-German. One is that Germany is really good to China, and the other is that he has no other choice.

Before the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, who could China rely on internationally?The United States is the strongest, but the United States is watching the fire from the other side and is mercenary. The United Kingdom and France are both lazy and short-sighted. His "foresight" advantage further expanded Germany's aid to China.

The current Sino-Japanese War has broken out for seven months, and the Chinese army has fought very well. During these seven months, the price paid by the Japanese on the Chinese battlefield is at least five times that of the same period in the original history. The loss is even more immeasurable.

Why can the Chinese army play so well?Germany's aid is one of the important reasons, because Jiang Weiguo, Germany's aid to China is at least five times that of the same period in the original history. There are not so many German weapons, and Jiang Weiguo is naturally difficult to cook without rice.

Next, what should Jiang Weiguo do?What path should he take China on?This question is very heavy.

From the perspective of national hatred and national interests, China's first enemy is Japan, and the second is the northern red empire.

Jiang Weiguo is eager to completely destroy Japan, and will never allow the Japanese to be "sent aboard and sent back to the country politely by the Chinese" as in the original history. Jiang Weiguo wants the Japanese to pay enough, ten times and a hundred times the price for their crimes In order for China to achieve a real victory in the Sino-Japanese War, then Jiang Weiguo also wants to have a good fight with Soviet Russia. First of all, he must prevent Soviet Russia from continuing to take advantage of China in this war and stabbing in the back , and secondly, we have to calculate those old blood debts with Soviet Russia; in addition, Southeast Asia is also China's traditional sphere of influence, and it is now occupied by Britain, France and the Netherlands. If it can be recovered during this war, it will naturally be The merits in the present age and the benefits in the future.

Jiang Weiguo is very "greedy", but what makes him extremely painful is that his capital is too limited, and China's industry, economy, technology, military and many other aspects are very backward (literary art is not backward, a bunch of masters who scold the government all day long ), even if the army, the overall strength of the Chinese Navy and the Chinese Air Force is really not worth mentioning, the Chinese Army is very large in scale, but its combat effectiveness is in vain.

Jiang Weiguo wants to rely on this meager capital to maximize the benefits for the country, and the difficulty can be imagined.

In the seven major countries of China, Germany, Japan, the United States, Britain, France, and the Soviet Union, the interests of the United States, Britain, and France are integrated, so these three countries are a group. China, Germany, Japan, and the Soviet Union are all "self-contained." China and Germany have a close relationship. China and Japan are irreconcilable, the relationship between Germany and Japan is mediocre, Germany and the Soviet Union are rivals, China and the Soviet Union use each other, and Japan and the Soviet Union have their own ghosts.

If Jiang Weiguo's idea of ​​"destroying Japan and retaliating against the Soviet Union" is taken as the premise, the world war can only be the following "combinations":

First, China, the United States, Britain, France and the Soviet Union vs. Germany and Japan;

Second, China, Germany, the United States, Britain and France vs. the Soviet Union and Japan;

Third, China and Germany vs. the United States, Britain, France, the Soviet Union and Japan.
