Tune the Pacific

Chapter 707 I'll wait for you for 15 days!

Mexico City.

In the presidential palace, Gu Weijun walked leisurely to the wall. On the wall was an oil painting showing the Mexican reading war, the legendary hero Miguel. Hidalgo and Jose.

The scene of more than a decade of reading resistance led by the Mexican people by Lelos was on paper.

This is a country that does not lack courage and blood. They worship heroes, but Gu Weijun has also understood during this period. The shortcomings of this country are also very serious. There is no industrial foundation. International income is completely based on silver mining. What's more serious is the looseness of the Mexicans. Perhaps it is free in the eyes of outsiders. Symbol, but from his point of view, it is this kind of freedom and looseness that is slowly destroying the country!

In fact, the whole of South America has this defect. Even the three countries of Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, which have joined the alliance, are full of this kind of laxity. It can be seen from their respective troops that they are useless except for logistics and war zone maintenance tasks!

The only thing that can be used is probably that there is still a trace of hatred for the land of the three states occupied by the United States in the hearts of Mexico. The defeat of the U.S.-Mexico War has established the hegemony of the United States in North America, and also made Mexico depressed. Not long ago, it was almost the tragedy of cutting territory by Pershing**!

For President Calanza, who has just re- ascended the presidency, Gu Weijun's relaxed and leisurely attitude surprised him a little. Generally speaking, at the most critical moment of deciding the life and death of the two superpowers, the representatives of any country should be nervous and uneasy, but the one in front of him is still in the mood to see the oil painting. Where did he come from? Self-confidence?

Pershing obviously wanted to attack Colombia and cut off the Goba channel to surround hundreds of thousands of allied forces. Xinhua had spent eight months in the rainforest before, and the soldiers were extremely tired. Why was he so relaxed?

If the United States regains control of Panama, defeating the United States is just a joke. What's more, even if he seizes Panama and cuts off the ties between the east and west coasts, this war is not so easy. Why is he so leisurely?!

President Caranza thought of the telegram that suddenly stirred up the world. The telegram was given to him, but it was intercepted and deciphered by the United States, which made people involuntarily feel a strong smell of conspiracy.

But this conspiracy made him so moved that he couldn't even refuse immediately!

New Mexico, Texas, Arizona, and finally Oklahoma and Louisiana! .

Five states occupy almost one-seventh of the land in the United States!

Not to mention Caranza, even the generals around them are squirming. For them, it is a great achievement to recover their homeland, defeat the United States, and make Mexico a great North American power again! If they succeed, they will become the legendary heroes of this country like the two on the wall!

But is it that easy to be a hero?

In front of Mexico is a gold coin with a bright light. On the front is a rejuvenated Mexico, and behind it are endless blood and white bones!

Thinking of this, President Karansa raised his glass: "Dear Gu, I heard that you have studied in the United States for two years. I believe you must know their ability. Why don't you persuade Your Majesty Li Mo to end the war? Isn't the flowing blood enough?

"End?" Gu Weijun looked at Karanza meaningfully, raised the glass and touched it gently. He smiled and said, "Do you think it can stop now?

As a country that advocates freedom and loves peace as much as your country, we don't like war. As Your Majesty said in the declaration of war, we once had infinite hope for peace and hoped that there would be no more war.

But they imposed it on us!" Gu Weijun glanced at the parliamentarians and generals present and said, "Just like what your country faced decades ago, they imposed war on us!"

"Yes, evil America!"

"They are so despicable!"

"You should be punished."

Gu Weijun's words reminded several generals of the U.S.-Mexico war decades ago and echoed, but this made Caranza very dissatisfied, because he felt that at least for now, Mexico should not be involved in this war.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't want to recover his hometown. In fact, every politician doesn't want to give up this opportunity that can make people famous, but there is no gold and silver in the world. He doesn't know how much price Mexico will pay.

In fact, after receiving the telegram, he immediately asked his confidant to analyze whether the proposal was feasible, and the conclusion was disappointing.

First of all, Mexico's finances cannot afford such a huge war. Although the export of silver occupies the world's first place every year, in fact, most of the silver mines have been monopolized by domestic capitalists and the United States.

The second is that Mexico lacks a strong army and enough weapons and other military hardware to support the army. The United States is the only supplier of weapons with large-scale manufacturing capabilities in the entire American continent. They can build any kind of weapon from bullets to battleships, and it is very difficult for Mexico to make bullets. If It's not that hundreds of thousands of rifles were secretly purchased from Xinhua before, and perhaps Pershing's invasion would have been won not long ago.

The third is whether the guarantee of Xinhua and Germany is effective. Judging from the current situation, Germany's support is almost negligible. Although their submarines cross the Atlantic Ocean, the submarine is not a battleship, and it cannot control the ocean. Xinhua's support can be expected, but it can be seen from Pershing's attack on Colombia. As long as Xinhua can't win Panama in a day, it can't really open up the fast lane between the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. For any Central American country that crosses the two oceans, the East Coast is always a huge threat.

Thinking that the eastern coastline will face the indiscriminate bombing of hundreds of American warships, and perhaps millions of soldiers will land, everyone has no idea of confrontation.

Even if these disadvantages are removed, even if the lost land is successfully repaired, accommodating or appeasing the local English-speaking population will be a severe and difficult test, and how to get along with the United States after the war is also a big problem. Xinhua can pat its buttocks and return to Asia, with the strength of their navy, at least for decades. The country can't threaten them, but the long land border will make Mexico bear all the hatred and anger of the United States after the war!

Is it worth it?

Looking at President Caranza, who has been silent for a long time, Gu Weijun doesn't know how difficult it is to impress Mexico. In fact, Caranza's ability to come to power has something to do with the United States.

After scanning the few people around him, Gu Weijun put down his glass, waved his hand to take a document from his assistant, and handed it to Caranza: "Dear President, here is a list of 1.5 million rifles, 700 cannons and machine guns used by the army. 2,300, 110 tanks, 500 aircraft, 2,000 trucks, 100 million bullets and 50,000 shells, as well as 3 cruisers of the navy, 12 destroyers and 30 patrol ships and torpedo boats, and

"Hang!"

Before Gu Weijun finished speaking, he remembered a sound of inhalation in the living room. Among other things, this series of numbers alone are enough to make people's eyes red. What's more, there are so many warships, including three cruisers, which were given to a Mexican fleet almost for nothing!

"And more." Gu Weijun glanced at the people present and added the last chip: "A five-year interest-free cash loan worth 300 million yuan!"

"Three million yuan five-year interest-free loan, and still cash!"

The previous huge numbers of military aid equipment did not surprise Caranza, because Xinhua alone captured more than these numbers from Australia. If you add the captured figures of the battles of Western Siberia and Mesopotamia, it can help them arm up at least 4 million troops for free.

But the interest-free loan later is too unexpected!

Xinhua currency, because of its exquisite oriental dragon pattern and ocean blue background, is called blue coins by various countries. With the outbreak of the war, both the original hard currency pound sterling and the so-called strong US dollar have begun to depreciate. As for the franc and the German mark, no one cares. Only the blue coin has not been eliminated by the war. Instead, because of one victory after another, it began to attract more and more international capital.

With the Wall Street Bulk Futures Trading Center facing the danger of bankruptcy, Shanghai International Bulk Futures Trading Center has become the world's largest exchange. It is said that the daily transaction amount exceeds 1 billion, and it has even reached the peak data of Wall Street.

Although 300 million is not much, compared with the total number of loans they have provided to other allies of 5 billion, which is less than one-tenth, but the word interest-free is enough to show Xinhua's sincerity. You know, even Germany has obtained a low-interest loan, not interest-free!

What's more, there are such a large amount of weapons. If these can really be obtained, then Mexico will become the second most powerful military presence in the Americas overnight!

"What are we going to give?" President Caranza asked in a low voice.

Hearing this, Gu Weijun also secretly admired this evergreen tree in Mexican politics. It was indeed extraordinary to be able to maintain a minimum of calmness in front of such a big **, so he immediately said, "Mr. President, in a proverb of your country, it is "there is no white gold and silver in the world", so I I don't want to lie."

Gu Weijun's words immediately pricked up everyone's ears, because everyone wanted to know what the bottom line of Xinhua was!

"Weapons are provided free of charge! 300 million cash has arrived in Honolulu!" Gu Weijun glanced at the audience and spread out the final card: "What we want is very simple. Join us wholeheartedly, fight side by side with us to defeat the United States, sign a friendship agreement between the two countries, and sign a new trade agreement between the two countries at the same time!"

"New Trade Agreement?"

This is something that everyone didn't expect. Even Caranza couldn't help frowning. A congressman next to him immediately asked, "What kind of agreement is it?"

"It's actually very simple." Gu Weijun smiled and squinted his eyes like an old woman who coaxed children. He smiled and said, "As always, it's just because our country has completely given up the silver standard, and the British pound and the United States and other currencies continue to depreciate, we hope to add one that will use Chinese currency as the only in future bulk transactions. A hard currency settlement unit.

Hearing this clause, all the Mexican officials present looked at each other in front of each other. Is this also worth writing into the new trade agreement? Today, when the US dollar and the British pound have fallen, what else can be used without blue coins?

President Caranza thought about it and didn't think there was anything wrong with this one. What's more, they provided a cash loan. Blue coins and cash can only buy things from Xinhua products. Do you take blue coins to the United States or Europe to buy? It's impossible, so he immediately returned to the previous aid and said, "There is no problem with the trade agreement. Our country also needs your businessmen to invest, but join the alliance and go to war with the United States."

Before Karansa finished speaking, Gu Weijun interrupted him and said loudly, "Mr. President, with all due respect, the United States has known the telegram sent to you by our country and Germany. This is our negligence. I apologize to you, but there is one thing I hope you understand.

The United States has begun to strengthen the mobility of troops to your border, and I can guarantee that if your country does not take action, it will never be able to recover the lost land, and the whole America will be shrouded in the shadow of the United States, perhaps.

You will never turn over again!"

Gu Weijun's words are sonorous and powerful, and hit people's hearts. In this living room, it can be said that a group of the best capital spokespersons in Mexico have gathered, so they are very clear that, not to mention 20 years, even now, if it hadn't been for the strong rise of Xinhua, the American continent would not have been able to get rid of the cage of the United States. It's covered.

"But."

Seeing that Caranza seemed to be still hesitating, Gu Weijun couldn't help but feel a little angry. Unexpectedly, this guy was so cautious. He simply opened it all and said, "I know what the President and you are still worried about. I can assure you here that as long as your country joins us, your [***] team All we have to do is to help us contain part of the U.S. military. All the main offensive tasks will be completed by our country. Of course, because the supply is far away, your country needs some food and other help.

In addition, after the war, we will also force the United States to recognize your rule over the above five states and let them pass formal legal documents.

Of course.

I know what you are still worried about, because you all know that Pershing and the British and American fleets attacked Colombia. At this moment, they may have landed on the coastline and are trying to cut off the ties between Panama and Colombia, so you must feel that we will face failure in Panama!

But what I want to say is that we might as well make a bet here.

Within 15 days, we will take Panama City! Cut off the canal completely!"

"What?"

"Take Panama City in 15 days?"

"Mr. Gu, aren't you kidding? Your army has been fighting there for 8 months. Does it mean that the 8-month thing can be completed in 15 days?"

"Yes, isn't that a joke?!"

In the face of the talkative voice, Gu Weijun suddenly turned around, locked his eyes tightly on Caranza, and said confidently with a smile, "15 days! President Callanza, do you believe it?

"I." From the bottom of my heart, it's strange that Caranza believes that he has been fighting for 8 months before advancing to 50 kilometers away from Panama, which is an average distance of less than 2 kilometers a day, and the defense around Panama City must be the strictest. It's a joke to take it in 15 days!

But somehow, seeing Gu Weijun's straight waist and a faint smile at the corners of his mouth, Caranza had the idea of a stud. After scanning the whole audience, he suddenly gritted his teeth.

"I will wait for 15 days. If what you say is true, then I will seriously consider all your suggestions just now!"
