my bright sword career

Chapter 395 What do you think

One is the urgent need to know why the new weapons that the United States has just developed and have not yet equipped troops on a large scale appear in China thousands of miles away. With the posture of speaking, the scene fell into a stalemate again for a while.

The two sides looked at each other for a long time, and the smile on Harry's face faded little by little, and finally turned into an indifferent and solemn look.

After a long time, Harry asked slowly: "General Gao, are you sure you want to reject the kindness of a powerful country? If your attitude today affects the great United States of America's attitude towards China, are you sure you can afford the consequences?" ?”

Gao Hongming looked into the other party's eyes and said seriously: "Professor Harry, if this is the kindness you said, I can tell you clearly now that we don't need this kindness.

You can also return to the United States now and report today's events to President Roosevelt.As for whether I can afford such consequences... Sorry, I am just a small local militia leader. If you and your country's government insist on pinning this pot on my head, I will be very honored. If You are not afraid of being ridiculed by posterity. "

Seeing Gao Hongming's unrepentant expression, Harry suddenly felt a headache.

This guy made it clear that I just don't like you, how can you stand up to me, but he has nothing to do.

He knew very well that what he said just now was at best a verbal threat.

What they said is correct. If the blame for relations with China is really to be pinned on the head of a local militia, I am afraid that the US government will become the laughing stock of the world, and he has a high chance of being selected as one of the many In the country's history textbooks, it is only entered with a negative image.

Using a dignified staff and special envoy of the president of a country to intimidate the head of a local militia in a weak country is no different from a local rogue who "beats the Nanshan Nursing Home and kicks the Beihai Kindergarten".

The point is that people still don't buy his account, which is even more embarrassing.

The current United States is not the world policeman of later generations, at least it still needs to show some face.

Harry leaned back on the chair, pondered for a while, and showed a wry smile on his face: "Well, I admit that I was a little reckless just now, and I didn't consider your interests. I didn't consider it properly. Now you Can you tell me how you can tell your purchase channel."

"No." Gao Hongming shook his head: "Unless the U.S. government can provide large-scale military assistance to our department to make up for the losses caused by it."

Speaking of which, he didn't wait for Harry to speak, and continued: "Actually, in my opinion, there is no need for you to be so anxious. You don't need to tell me that there are only a few countries in the world that can manufacture advanced fighter jets and heavy artillery on a large scale. Even if I tell you, what can your government do to him? The gains outweigh the losses, what do you think?"

Harry was really moved by Gao Hongming's words this time, and thought seriously for the first time.

Gao Hongming is right. There are only a few countries in the world capable of imitating and manufacturing advanced fighter jets and heavy artillery on a large scale. Apart from the United States, there are only a few countries such as Germany, Japan, France, Britain, and the Soviet Union.

Forget it, Japan is at war with China, even if they are crazy, they can't sell weapons to Gao Hongming.

France has surrendered and Germany can be crossed out, leaving the Soviet Union and Germany.

Germany is too far away from China, so it is impossible to send weapons to China on a large scale quietly. Moreover, Germany has already formed an alliance with Japan, so it is basically impossible to sell weapons to Gao Hongming. The only and most likely country is the Soviet Union.

The thought of the Soviet Union gave Harry a headache. In just a few decades since the October Revolution, this European steamroller has developed from an agricultural country to an industrial powerhouse, and its industrial strength is also unmatched in Europe.

Coupled with the largest territorial area in the world and a population of 1.8 million, even the United States is afraid of such a strength. If the Soviets really did this, the United States has nothing to do with it.

Seeing Harry lost in thought, Gao Hongming knew that he had really listened to his words this time, so he changed the subject.

"Professor Harry, I think that instead of worrying about who is selling us weapons, you should think more about the threat from the Pacific Ocean, because that is the imminent danger to your country."

Harry's face changed slightly, and then he forced a smile and said, "General Gao, I don't understand what you mean."

"No...you understand!"

Gao Hongming sat up straight, and then leaned forward towards Harry. Although his movement was not large, Harry felt a strong sense of oppression.

"This is a war that is destined to sweep the world, and it will drag all countries into the water, and the United States is no exception. The only difference is the length of time it takes part in the war.

Obviously, both President Roosevelt and many people of insight in the United States are aware of this, especially as the strength of the Japanese navy continues to increase. I believe that the president of your country must be restless during this period of time, right?

Today's Japan has 6 aircraft carriers, 10 battleships, 37 cruisers, 122 destroyers and 62 submarines. In contrast, although the United States has more than 5 warships including 300 aircraft carriers in name, most of the warships It is already old, and its strength is far inferior to that of Japan. As long as the Japanese are willing, they can sweep the various islands and bases of the United States in the Pacific Ocean at any time, even including Hawaii.

If all of this is lost, the United States will have to prepare for fighting on its own soil. Presumably this is not what you want to see, right? "

Harry’s face really changed this time. What Gao Hongming said was exactly what Roosevelt and many far-sighted officials in the US government were worried about. In order to deal with the growing threat of Japan, Roosevelt had already called his staff to discuss The countermeasures are to stop all Japan-US trade, freeze all Japanese assets in the US, and impose an embargo on Japan.

The purpose of doing this is to weaken Japan's war potential as much as possible and hit Japan's economy.

What surprised him was that a militia leader who was thousands of miles away could have such a clear understanding of the international situation, as if he had opened the perspective of God.

But even though he was extremely shocked, Harry still tried his best to control his facial expression: "General Gao, I didn't come here to listen to your announcement on the international situation. You haven't said how to solve the problem between us."

"This problem is easy to solve, I can trade with you with one thing."

"Deal?" Harry couldn't help it, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.

"For example... last time I severely damaged the poisonous gas bombs of the two divisions of the Japanese army in Qingyuan River, what do you think?"
