Dreaming back to 1949, the great powers were there to deceive us

At the Huanghuali round table, Lao Hu and Wang Cuicui sat opposite each other.

After seeing Qi Bin off and making arrangements for Third Brother Hao, the couple could finally have a quiet meal.

Wang Cuicui was not used to eating mutton offal, so there was only a plate of fried dumplings and two side dishes on the table: cold kelp shreds and pickled garlic.

The kelp and pickled garlic were both found in the utility room.

Of course, Lao Hu couldn't have bought these things, he must have copied them from somewhere.

This guy doesn't care about food, he takes home anything he can get his hands on.

Sometimes when there is really nothing to bring home, the scumbag will get a piece of wood, a brick or something.

It really proves the saying: A thief never goes into an empty hole.

Otherwise, how could there be so many things accumulated at home, and they are all in short supply.

In this era, if you want to get ahead, you have to be shameless, just like the Four Pests.

But honest and decent people are bullied everywhere.

Old Hu picked up a shengjian and put it in Wang Cuicui's bowl. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that he had made a fortune.

With a virtuous wife at home, there is no need to worry about the prosperity of the Hu family.

In just one day, the whole house was tidy and in order. Most importantly, Wang Cuicui actually had the ability to identify antiques, calligraphy and paintings.

With this skill, you can become a wealthy man.

Old Hu opened the Coke again and handed it to Wang Cuicui. He also opened a bottle for himself and clinked glasses with Wang Cuicui: "Cuicui, I wish our lives will get better and better!"

Life must have a sense of ritual.

Wang Cuicui also touched Lao Hu and said, "Spring grass grows in the pond, and birds sing in the willows in the garden. As long as we are willing to endure hardships, our lives will get better and better!"

Old Hu obviously didn't understand Wang Cuicui's hidden advice. He raised his head and grumbled.

The cold cola goes down my throat, and countless bubbles hit my mouth.

Cool!

The young couple enjoyed their meal happily and soon finished the plate of shengjian.

Old Hu felt unsatisfied and brought another plate. Wang Cuicui was already eight-tenths full and stopped eating. She looked at Old Hu lovingly as he wolfed down the food.

Another plate of shengjian was finished. Old Hu saw that Wang Cuicui still had half a bottle of Coke left and asked, "Is it not to your taste?"

Wang Cuicui shook her head: "I'm full!"

Old Hu didn't mind it at all, he picked it up and slurped it.

After I finished drinking it, I realized something was wrong.

Lao Hu blushed a little: "I am a rough man, and I have wronged you."

"We are at home, it's good for you to be casual, otherwise, it would be so tiring."

Old Hu was quite touched and thought he had married a virtuous woman.

At the same time, he also began to reflect. After all, they were people from two different eras, and the cultural differences were too great. Now both sides were still in the honeymoon period, so it was natural for them to sympathize with each other. But what would happen after a long time?

Outside the door, Hao Sange's voice came, "Sir, am I going to pick up Mr. James?"

Old Hu slapped his head and almost forgot about the important matter.

"Third brother, wait a moment"

Old Hu went to the utility room and took out ten kilograms of sugar, ten kilograms of snowflake salt, five packs of cigarettes, and a can of soybean oil.

It’s considered as wages for the next two days, and Brother Hao San can take it home.

Afterwards, the couple quickly cleaned up the dishes.

Lao Hu wanted to help wash the dishes, but Wang Cuicui refused and directly drove Lao Hu out.

What a nice girl.

If this happened in the future, if you didn't wash the dishes, she might hit you with a mop.

Hu Zhenhua returned to the living room, took out a piece of white paper, and started drawing with a pen.

Soon, a map of China took shape.

After finishing the drawing, Lao Hu stared at the map in a daze.

After a while, he began to draw a map of the entire world according to his memory.

Perhaps because he felt that the drawing didn't look like the real thing, Lao Hu crumpled the world map into a ball.

He began to stare at the map in a daze again.

After a long time, his gaze fell on the Ryukyu Islands.

The first island chain!

Having heard countless experts talk about this concept in later generations, it is impossible for Lao Hu not to be familiar with it.

Recalling the explanation given by Zhang from the Strategic Research Institute in his mind, Lao Hu's understanding of the Ryukyu Islands gradually became clearer.

China's earliest records of Ryukyu can be traced back to the Sui and Tang dynasties. Because most ancient feudal dynasties focused on local governance, they were not keen on exchanges with overseas countries. However, this situation changed in the Ming Dynasty.

In 1372, Zhu Yuanzhang sent envoys to the Ryukyu Islands to recruit the three Ryukyu kingdoms established there and they immediately submitted. King Chatu of Zhongshan, King Chengzong of Sannan, and King Panichi of Sanboku all sent envoys to Nanjing to pay tribute. Later, King Zhongshan gradually unified the Ryukyu Islands and was once again enthroned by the Ming Dynasty.

From then on, every king who succeeded to the throne had to request the Ming Dynasty to confer the title on him, fulfilling the obligations of a vassal state to its suzerain state.

In 1556, Japan invaded Ryukyu and suffered a crushing defeat.

In modern times, Japan started the Meiji Restoration and went further and further on the road of foreign aggression.

In 1872, Japan declared the Ryukyu Islands as its territory, changed the Ryukyu Kingdom into the Ryukyu Domain, and named the Ryukyu King Sho Tai as the King of the Ryukyu Domain.

In 1879, the Wa Kingdom ordered the Ryukyu King Sho Tai to go to the Wa capital, and then established a county in the Ryukyu Islands, which was managed by a governor appointed by the Wa capital.

At this point, Ryukyu was destroyed.

However, Japan never considered Ryukyu as its own people, but instead cruelly exploited and ruled them.

From 1879 to 1945, Japan's brutal oppression of Ryukyu had deeply resented the Ryukyu people. During the Battle of Okinawa in World War II, 3 Ryukyu soldiers perished. When forced to accept the Potsdam Declaration and return all occupied territories, the Japanese government issued the so-called "honorific death order," ordering the local garrison to exterminate all Ryukyu people. This frenzied massacre resulted in the deaths of over 26 Ryukyu residents, a scale second only to the Nanjing Massacre.

From 1945 to 1972, the United States administered Ryukyu and implemented a policy of alienation.

On May 1972, 5, Japan resumed its administrative rights over the Ryukyu Islands.

Hu Zhenhua's eyes became brighter and brighter.

It is now 1949, and Japan is still in ruins and unable to lay hands on the Ryukyu Islands.

As for the Americans, they are a big trouble.

The location of Ryukyu is very important. The Americans have many military bases in the Ryukyu Islands, and even in later generations, these bases still exist.

However, there is no chance.

According to the Potsdam Declaration, Japan must return all occupied territories.

The Nationalist government's desire to take back Ryukyu was in the right place.

However, Lao Hu has no hope for this. The president is in a difficult situation now and has no time to care about the Ryukyu Islands.

Therefore, it can only be solved from a grassroots perspective.

The worst outcome is that history cannot be changed, what can be done?

Hu Zhenhua was at YYDS when he heard the voice of Hao Sange from outside: "Sir, Mr. James is here to visit you!"

Lao Hu quickly put away the map and went out to meet him.

James brought a gift box and handed it to Lao Hu personally: "Hu, happy wedding!"

Then, he kissed Wang Cuicui's hand again. This time, Wang Cuicui was much more indifferent.

Hu Zhenhua led James into the living room. After the host and guests sat down, James took out a few photos and handed them to Hu Zhenhua.

"My friend, you have such great photography skills. Look how beautiful the picture of my wife is!"

James: ￥&……

He found it a little difficult to understand Lao Hu's train of thought. Your wife is beautiful, what does that have to do with my photography skills?

Could it be possible that I could turn an ugly person into Alice?

Just when James didn't know how to answer, Lao Hu had already left the living room and returned a moment later with a red paper roll in his hand, tied with a red rope.

Marriage certificate!

Old Hu cleaned the table, took out a paperweight, and flattened the marriage certificate.

Wang Cuicui brought a small bowl filled with the paste that had been cooked long ago.

Lao Hu picked out the smallest photo, about two inches in size.

Fortunately, the space left was big enough.

After some gestures, Wang Cuicui took a pointed brush, dipped it in paste, and smeared it on the back of the photo.

She applied the paint very carefully and only stopped when it was evenly applied.

Hu Zhenhua turned over the photo and compared it with the marriage certificate.

"Crooked!"

Old Hu decided to tease Wang Cuicui: "Is that so?"

"Even more crooked!"

Lao Hu turned the photo to a different angle: "How about this?"

“That’s too much!”

Wang Cuicui didn't notice anything.

"This way and that?"

"Oh, sir, you are so stupid!"

Wang Cuicui snatched the photo, gestured carefully, then pasted it on carefully and flattened it with a book.

When I looked up, I saw Hu Zhenhua's eyes smiling.

Wang Cuicui stomped her feet and ran out.

James felt very warm and said sincerely: "Hu, I really envy you and Mrs. Hu!"

Hu Zhenhua blushed and changed the subject: "James, are you married?"

"They got married and had a little princess, but then they got divorced."

"I'm so sorry to hear this, but I believe you will meet your other half again!"

"thank you for your good wishes!"

Wang Cuicui opened the door again and brought two cups of tea.

After watching Wang Cuicui leave, James spoke again: "Hu, I want to have a frank talk with you!"

Hu Zhenhua picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Am I not sincere?"

"No, no, Hu, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that I need your answer on certain matters."

Hu Zhenhua picked up the teacup again: "Please, try my wife's cooking."

James was in no mood to drink tea, but he still picked up the teacup.

Lao Hu was in a good mood and asked, "What do you need me to answer?"

James looked towards the door and lowered his voice: "How can we be sure that Polar Bear succeeded in detonating its core within six months?"

Old Hu's expression changed, but then he calmed down: "How should I know this!"

James was anxious: "You told me last night when we were drinking."

"Impossible! James, we were all drunk yesterday, you must have heard it wrong!"

"But we are friends, and the United States really needs this answer."

Hu Zhenhua stared at James: "Then can you help us develop nuclear weapons?"

James didn't expect Lao Hu to make such a shameless request. For a moment, he was speechless.

What a joke!

We are in a monopoly position, why should we share it with you? Not even with our staunch ally, the Gentleman Country!

After exhaling, James spoke again: "Researching nuclear weapons costs too much. You can't afford it."

Lao Hu shook his head: "We want to give it a try."

James shrugged his shoulders: "Hu, you have to know that I am just a military attaché and cannot decide such a big matter."

Old Hu said nothing and silently picked up the teacup.

Serve tea to see the guests off.

James is an expert on China, so of course he knows this story. But at this moment, he could only pretend not to understand, and also picked up the teacup and took a sip.

If direct approach doesn't work, then take a roundabout approach.

James put down his teacup and said, "Hu, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about the current situation. What do you think of the negotiations between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party?"

Old Hu was extremely surprised.

I don’t know how many red film and television dramas I have watched. Lao Hu has watched no less than ten historical dramas and documentaries involving the negotiations between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.

Young man, let me teach you a lesson and trick you first.

Hu Zhenhua picked up the teacup and pretended to be serious: "It will definitely break!"

James' eyes widened: "How is this possible? Don't you want peace?"

"Of course I've thought about it, but it's impossible to achieve it! James, would you become friends with polar bears?"

James was silent.

Hu Zhenhua looked at him and continued to ask,

"If you go to war with a polar bear, can you win?"

"Of course, we have nuclear weapons!"

Hu Zhenhua smiled and said, "What if neither side uses nuclear weapons?"

James fell silent again, but he reacted quickly: "Hu, your assumption is not valid."

Hu Zhenhua shrugged his shoulders. "Okay, assuming I agree with you, if you were to use atomic bombs in actual combat, how many would you have?"

Without waiting for James to answer, Lao Hu said firmly: "I'm afraid it's no more than 300?"

Old Hu stretched out his right arm, his palm making a blooming motion. "Bang! Bang! Suppose you launch a nuclear attack? What can we do? Polar bears have vast territories. The pain of losing an arm is bearable! Besides, you can only transport them by plane. Can you penetrate the tight air defense network?"

James's brain had stopped working.

It took him a while before he came back to his senses.

Lao Hu's speech was coming to an end: "My friends, you are making progress, and so are the polar bears. It will take time to close the gap with the polar bears!"

Lao Hu repeated again: "Time!"

James suddenly laughed: "Hu, we just have the time advantage!"

This sentence made Lao Hu stunned. He realized that he had made a mistake: the cognition of both parties was not on the same level at all.

The number of nuclear weapons in the United States is top secret. How could James know that?

Secondly, Hu Zhenhua felt that he was far inferior to James in terms of intelligence.

This guy is a diplomat after all. Debating with him is like waving a sword in front of Guan Gong.

At this moment, Hu Zhenhua had a feeling: his knowledge that was beyond the reach of this era was useless!

In the room, the steam from the hot tea continued to rise.

After a moment, Hu Zhenhua decided to end the topic. After all, too much talk will lead to mistakes!

"Mr. James, you're absolutely right! The United States is the world's most powerful nation, and its advantages are very obvious! My friend, I'm having a banquet at Yuqing Tower tonight, and I hope you can come!"

Now it was James' turn to be stunned. He was debating with Hu Zhenhua using provocation as a pretext to get him to talk.

Hu Zhenhua's sudden change of tone made him even more certain that this guy must know something.

Although James is not clear about the future, he knows human nature.

"Hu, I must drink your wedding wine!"

After all, it was the first time the two met and there was no basis of trust.

When cultivating relationships, the most taboo is to be eager for quick success and instant benefits.

After they chatted for another half an hour,

James stood up. "Hu, it's been a pleasure talking to you. I have to go now. Thank you, Mrs., for the tea."

"I'll give it to you."

Outside the gate, Lao Hu instructed Third Brother Hao: "Third Brother, send Mr. James back to the consulate. Be careful."

Back in the living room, Hu Zhenhua began to recall the details of his meeting with James.

"broken!"

Old Hu's face was pale, his breathing was rapid, and he almost couldn't stand.

The number of atomic bombs owned by the US is a top secret!

This is not the future, where they use loudspeakers to broadcast all day long: Dear ones, I have 2700 firecrackers, do you want to see the romantic mushroom cloud?

Lao Hu stretched out his hand and slapped himself.

"I'll let you talk dirty, I'll let you talk dirty!"

This is the period in the world when nuclear war is most likely to occur.

In order to ensure its military superiority, the United States has formulated a plan to launch nuclear strikes on multiple cities in the polar bear region.

After the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Bangko Sentences, the U.S. retaliated by listing more than 100 Chinese cities as nuclear targets.

If you don't have equivalent weapons, you may encounter a nuclear explosion at any time.

At this stage, the only country capable of containing the Americans is its neighbor to the north.

Although Lao Hu doesn't like them very much.

When a butterfly flaps its wings, who knows what kind of storm it will cause.
