Although he was a little frustrated, Chiang Kai-shek was a little relieved to be invited to a conference on Europe. He realized once again that with the victory of the war, China's international status was rising significantly. Chiang Kai-shek summoned Chen Cheng, Lin Wei, Wang Chong Huibais overnight to discuss it. Chen Cheng believed that China has no personal interests in Europe and does not know much about the situation in Europe. On the premise of defeating Germany, he could follow the United States' opinions and act according to the opportunity.

Lin Wei believes that it can be more proactive. The most important thing in the European battlefield is to defeat Germany and opening up a second battlefield is the most concerned issue of the three parties at present. China should clearly support the opening of a second battlefield in France, which can effectively reduce the burden on the Soviet Union. Once the pressure on the Soviet Union in Europe is reduced, it will strengthen the troops in the Far East, which indirectly supports the Chinese battlefield.

Chen Cheng believed that it would not be so simple. The main force of the German army was always in the Soviet Union. Due to China's counterattack, the pressure on the Soviet Union was greatly reduced. The Soviet Union would only attack when Japan was extremely weak. Simply put, the Soviet Union would only attack when China wiped out the Japanese army almost.

Chen Cheng's view was supported by Belarus, who knew more about European affairs. In his opinion, the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union decided to be the first in Europe from the beginning of the war. Now they still have this strategy. No matter how the battlefield in Asia changes, the Soviet Union will not transfer its main force from Europe before Germany is defeated. Their possible offensive will only be after the decisive battle in North China.

Since attending the Cairo meeting, Belarus has become much more courageous and dared to express his opinions on many occasions. His opinions will be adopted by Chiang Kai-shek most of the time. Belarus believes that the focus of tomorrow's discussion is likely to be the second battlefield. On this issue, China can support the Soviet Union. However, on other issues, such as the division of power in Europe after the war, China should remain neutral or follow the United States.

Chiang Kai-shek was still thinking about the thought that came out of his mind, and he measured it from the left and right. He felt confident, but not sure. After thinking for a long time, he finally told everyone his thoughts. This sudden idea stunned everyone. Bai Sitong, Chen Cheng, and Lin Wei all looked at Chiang Kai-shek in surprise.

Looking at their appearance, Chiang Kai-shek was a little disappointed, and he couldn't help but think of Zhuang Jihua. If Zhuang Jihua was there, he would definitely be able to draw a conclusion within two minutes and analyze all the pros and cons for him within five minutes. But now Chen Cheng and Lin Wei were just looking at him in a daze.

Two minutes later, Chen Cheng first reacted. He looked at Chiang Kai-shek with a pretentious thought and said, "The Japanese army's troops in Mongolia were either transferred to North China or attracted to the north by the Soviet counterattack. If a powerful force was sent to enter Mongolia from Suiyuan area at this time, I think we can succeed." "Military point of view" it can be successful. We can draw Fu Zuoyi's troops, Hu Zong's southern troops, Eighth Route Army and New Fourth Army, and Jinsui Army." Lin Wei also thought it through at this time, and he immediately reported the number of troops in Suiyuan, Shanxi. The total strength of these troops was about 300,000.

"No, the Eighth Route Army must not be included. If they are notified, it is equivalent to notifying Stalin." Chen Cheng immediately objected, but Lin Wei did not refute it." He nodded to him in agreement.

"If it is not counted in the New Fourth Army of the Eighth Route Army, the total strength is only about 250,000." After Lin Wei finished speaking, he turned to ask Beatsuicong: "What about politics and diplomacy?" After Lin Wei and Chen Cheng's analysis, Beatsuicong also reacted at this time. He looked up at Chiang Kai-shek: "Diplomatically, our move is aimed at the Japanese army, and Stalin cannot object. However, after defeating the Japanese army, the Mongolian army will inevitably enter our occupied area. At that time, it will face an extremely serious diplomatic situation and the danger of military conflict is extremely high.

", Chen Chengshen was serious, and he was still judging in his heart how much impact Chiang Kai-shek's sudden move would have on the decisive battle in North China, and, once the Chinese team entered Mongolia, would the Japanese army sit idly by, and whether the Japanese army occupying the Soviet Far East would launch a large-scale Western aid: Once they launched a large-scale Western aid, what impact would it have on the situation in the Far East, etc.

"Okay, please consider this issue." Chiang Kai-shek did not actually think about it, especially after the dispatch of troops to Mongolia, what impact would it have on the decisive battle in North China: "Mongolia is winter now, and the Soviet Union will not launch an attack in winter, so we still have enough time."

After Chiang Kai-shek finished speaking, he stood up: "Tomorrow's meeting, we should support Stalin and open up a second battlefield in France, which will be of great help to defeat Hitler. However, one thing is, how much aid materials are there for the United States, Cixiu, now how many materials are there for domestic supply to China every month?" As the war progressed, domestic supplies became increasingly tense. After Shandong was liberated, refugee relief was a big problem. Chiang Kai-shek attached more and more importance to US aid supplies, and almost every month he had to take stock of the US aid supplies entering China.

"It can reach 90,000 tons now, and it is still a distance from 100,000 tons." Chen Cheng immediately reported the figures. When preparing for the Tehran meeting, he specially investigated the US aid materials entering China every month.

In fact, Chiang Kai-shek also knew the situation of US aid supplies. After the reopening of the Yunnan-Burma Road, the US aid supplies entering China grew rapidly, but still did not meet the monthly requirement of 100,000 tons. The Jiangbei War Zone attacked several times, and the logistics support mainly came from the materials produced by China. Guizhou and Yunnan successively built a large number of factories. After more than a year of expansion, the former Sichuan factory can basically meet the combat needs of the Jiangbei War Zone.

But this can only meet the combat needs of one war zone. The Jiangnan War Zone, the Second War Zone, the Eighth War Zone, and especially the latter two war zones, received very little materials, and the materials obtained were mainly equipped with Hu Zongnan's troops. Yan Xishan and Fu Zuoyi both complained, but Chiang Kai-shek ignored it.

"From the current combat scale, the materials should reach 150,000 tons per month, otherwise the needs of domestic combat will not be met." Chiang Kai-shek's tone was very certain. The Soviet Union and Britain received millions of tons of materials every month, and China was less than one-tenth of them: "Cixiu, you should propose it at the meeting of the Chiefs of Staff. It is best to let the United States transport the materials directly to Qingdao. The United States has a strong navy, and this requirement should be met." "Well," Chen Cheng said hesitantly: "Chairman, the US Navy has not yet broken through the Japanese army's absolute national defense circle. Only after occupying the Mariana Islands can it be possible to transport materials directly to our army." "No responsibility, just ask for it." Chiang Kai-shek said expressionlessly.

Lin Wei hurriedly looked at Chen Cheng: "Chairman is right. Even if we make a great sacrifice and eliminate the Japanese army in Korea, the US Navy cannot destroy the Japanese navy, and we cannot register in Japan." Chen Cheng understood immediately. Chiang Kai-shek asked him to propose it at the meeting of the Chiefs of Staff. The purpose was to urge the US Navy to launch an attack on Japan as soon as possible, eliminate the Japanese navy, restrain the Japanese army, and force the Japanese army to not dare to go from Nanyang again. "I understand, the Chairman is far-sighted and has no choice." Chen Cheng immediately flattered Chiang Kai-shek.

The next day, Chiang Kai-shek changed into a regular "middle" outfit. Soong Mei-ling was busy with him for a while before he was satisfied. This military uniform was a new work, cut with an American nickname, and it was straight and close to the body. She put on this military uniform, which made Chiang Kai-shek look very heroic. Soong Mei-ling chose a dark red satin cheongsam for herself. She used yellow thread on the cheongsam to nose several plum blossoms, and the collar was slightly raised, revealing her fair neck only on the front.

At the door of the conference room, Chiang Kai-shek met Stalin. The short and strong Stalin was still wearing yesterday's clothes, and the Lenin medal was still hanging on his chest, but he was wearing a pair of short boots under his feet.

Stalin did not expect that Soong Mei-ling would attend the meeting. Stalin's sturdy figure looked even worse than Soong Mei-ling. He was a short man among the Russians. He was stunned for a moment before he greeted Soong Mei-ling first, and then gently shook Chiang Kai-shek's hand.

"Mr. Chairman, I wanted to see you very early, but unfortunately it was nearly twenty years late." Chiang Kai-shek was a little stunned and immediately understood that Stalin was talking about the great revolution that year. If he hadn't been to the Fourth One 2, the relationship between China and the Soviet Union would have been completely different. Chiang Kai-shek was relatively clumsy and didn't know how to fight back. Soong Mei-ling smiled softly: "Mr. Marshal, Chairman also wanted to visit you very early. I sincerely ask you for advice on China's strategy of "China's life" and jointly fight against the Japanese invaders, but unfortunately I have not been able to do it."

As soon as this statement was made, Stalin immediately understood why Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling appeared at the meeting at the same time. This woman was very fond of interests and said one thing, and not only brought back his sarcasm to Chiang Kai-shek, but also implicitly mocked Stalin, inciting China to oppose political affairs. He also reminded him that when Japan attacked the Soviet Union, the National Civil Affairs Bureau took the initiative to attack Japan, restrained the Japanese army, and provided help to the Soviet army. He had promised to send troops directly to help China attack the Japanese army, but he was eventually betrayed.

The two walked into the conference room together. Roosevelt sat in a wheelchair and saw them coming in and smiled at them. Churchill held his big cigar in his mouth and held it on the chair. He seemed not to see Chiang Kai-shek and Stalin. Stalin hummed softly, and stood there without moving, but Chiang Kai-shek still walked towards his seat, and a sign was placed on the round table.

Soong Mei-ling grabbed Chiang Kai-shek, and Chiang Kai-shek was a little surprised. He turned his head to look at Soong Mei-ling. Soong Mei-ling gave him a look. Chiang Kai-shek then noticed that Stalin stood at the door without moving, and looked at Roosevelt and Churchill with majestic eyes.

Roosevelt did not move, but just smiled at Stalin and Chiang Kai-shek, saying hello. Soong Mei-ling knew very well about European and American etiquette. She immediately understood that Stalin was pursuing Churchill's etiquette. Roosevelt was disabled, and seeing that they did not get up, it was understandable that Churchill should stand up to greet him.

The scene was a bit awkward, but Churchill did not move at all, and Stalin did not move. Soong Mei-ling thought about it for a while and gently pushed him with Chiang Kai-shek's arm. Chiang Kai-shek still didn't know what he had, but he still walked straight to his seat according to Soong Mei-ling's hint.

According to usual habits, Soong Mei-ling should release her arm at this time, but at this time, Soong Mei-ling tightened Chiang Kai-shek's arm. Chiang Kai-shek knew something was wrong. Soong Mei-ling gently walked towards Roosevelt, and when they arrived in front of Roosevelt, the two of them questioned Roosevelt one after another.

Then, at Soong Mei-ling's suggestion, Chiang Kai-shek ignored Churchill and walked straight back to his seat to sit down. Churchill's face suddenly became purple...!
