Remember【】in a second, providing you with wonderful novels to read.
"Okay, since Roosevelt wants to support the bandits, let's cooperate with them. Although we are enemies with the Americans, we do not hinder our cooperation at some low levels. Although we are enemies strategically, for our respective Interests are not as good as a certain degree of internal cooperation, so we cooperate with each other, so we might as well help this Roosevelt, so as to help them expand their military strength, and then drag down the economic development of the Americans and let their internal consortium capitalists and governments emerge Contradictory." Wang Guorui said.
Wang Guorui doesn't mind helping Roosevelt at this time, especially helping Roosevelt to force the US Congress to agree to expand the army and expand its strength and increase military funding. You must know that military expenditures not only do not have any returns, but are like gold swallowing beasts. If these military expenditures are invested in people's livelihood or infrastructure construction, more and greater returns will be obtained in the future, and the benefits of the impact will be unparalleled. However, if it is invested in military expenditures, it is basically in vain, and only a small part can really pay off.
Therefore, if the Americans invest one dollar in military expenditure now, it means that the future loss will reach more than tens of dollars. And Wang Guorui also supports the expansion of the American army, because it is impossible for the Americans to reach China, and it is impossible for the Americans to have the ability to make an expedition to China. China also does not have the ability to conquer them, so neither side can do anything to the other, so naturally they are not afraid of any accidents. So even if the American military strength expands again, I don't have to worry about the Americans coming over, at least in the next hundred years, I don't have to worry about direct large-scale conflicts.
And once the military strength of the Americans expands, their government will have more capital to bargain with those big capital consortiums, so that they can truly gain power. Therefore, once the strength of the military expands, the American bureaucrats will definitely have direct conflicts with the American consortia, so that those American bureaucrats will have the capital to bargain, and it is imperative to have conflicts and struggles within the United States. So now of course Wang Guorui has to support it. Only in this way can they compete with each other and let them weaken the United States through internal friction.
"Immediately order the agents. Continue to commit crimes, and anyway, we are now declaring war, so it is normal for us to do some things!" Wang Guorui said.
The United States and Roosevelt are also waiting here. Apparently waiting to hear news of the continuation of the crime.
"Are the Chinese ready?" Roosevelt asked.
"President Roosevelt, we have already retracted the military and police outside, but the Chinese did not immediately come out to commit crimes!"
Roosevelt thought for a while, and he thought that the Chinese should be able to know this tacit understanding. As long as those agents continue to come out to commit crimes, then Roosevelt can take this opportunity to ask the Congress and the consortium bosses behind them for greater power to expand military development. Only in this way can the greater power of the government be guaranteed, and it will not be constrained by those consortiums. So this opportunity is very rare. If the Chinese can take the initiative to cooperate, it will certainly be better for him. So now Roosevelt also hopes that Wang Guorui can cooperate well, and then go to cheat those consortiums together.
Roosevelt's ideas are also relatively simple. Although the two countries are enemies in terms of strategy, it is better for the two governments to cooperate to a certain extent. To prevent the power of these governments from getting smaller and smaller, of course, bureaucrats like Roosevelt are very unwilling. So they naturally hope to have a good command of some troops. Only when they have a strong enough army can they raise the power of their government. Otherwise, they will definitely face the result of becoming the rubber stamp of those consortiums.
Now that I have this opportunity. Roosevelt hoped to be able to bargain with the capital and those consortiums. That's why he came up with this plan of raising the bandits' self-respect, which actually means that the generals deliberately show their own importance by not annihilating those enemies. This is a method used by ancient generals against the central monarch, and now Roosevelt has also used it. On weekdays, those consortiums deliberately don’t take the government seriously, because they seem very safe, and they don’t seem to need the government, because there are no powerful enemies around, and those various Americans are also very stable, land resources Still very broad. In addition, the entire western region has not been effectively developed, so they are not afraid of any war breaking out.
Those American capitalists just want to do a good job of suppressing workers and oppressing workers. There is no need to do other wars. As for the suppression of workers, those capitalists can complete it only if they need it themselves, and they don't necessarily need the government to carry it out. But now that foreign countries have "invaded" with great difficulty, Roosevelt certainly does not want to let go of this opportunity to demand power from those capitalists. Ask for more bargaining capital. In fact, this is a kind of self-respect of raising bandits, another model of self-respecting of bandits, using external threats to force and ask for more benefits.
As for this external threat, it is really appropriate. It is not only a threat from a powerful country like China, but not a weak country. And this China's strength is still good, but it does not have the conditions for an expedition across the Pacific Ocean. This made Roosevelt feel just right, without worrying about the demise of the United States, he could also take the opportunity to claim power.
So Roosevelt was also quite tempted, thinking that this method is a very good way, and he can go further to obtain those greater benefits.
As for those American capitalists, Roosevelt used the Chinese to force them. Those American capitalists must have to compromise, because it is still possible to say that those American capitalists are conspiring behind the scenes, but they are still powerless to fight with real swords and guns. These capitalists are similar to those so-called aristocratic families in ancient China. Although they have a strong influence, they can even affect the situation of the government and the general trend of the world. It can even support many forces to rebel.
But none of these can change the fact that they are really weak in terms of force. They really have to rely on the government for force. The relationship between them and the government is interdependent and mutual promotion. They support the government to protect their own interests, and then formulate their plans through the government so that they can obtain more benefits. On the other hand, government officials need the support of these consortiums to take office, so they depend on each other. Although they have conflicts, they still have to cooperate in the end.
However, the United States is also unlucky in terms of the army. The armed forces of the capitalists and workers are not strong, and they are definitely not opponents in the face of the regular army. And they tried every means to shrink the US military to prevent the government from threatening them. So now Roosevelt hopes to increase his strength and increase the government's bargaining power.
"Boom!" An explosion sounded.
"President, it's not good, President, it's not good! Chinese agents have blown up one of our factories again, and this factory has suffered heavy losses!"
After hearing this, Roosevelt was not only not angry, but looked very happy.
"Immediately make a proposal to the Congress, and then propose to convene a Congress to discuss the expansion of the strength of the army, the increase of various military budgets, and the expansion of the army!" Roosevelt said.
It didn't take long for Roosevelt to obtain satisfactory results. Although the members of Congress were very angry, there was nothing they could do about it. Roosevelt is obviously a threat anyway, forcing those capitalists by deliberately releasing water to the Communist Party. If Roosevelt deliberately continues to release water to those **** people, then the industrial capitalists in the United States will definitely suffer heavy losses. Especially now that the Americans have suffered heavy losses, if this continues, the United States will definitely suffer huge losses. Those capitalists knew that Roosevelt was deliberately blackmailing, but there was nothing they could do.
Because they know that Roosevelt has administrative power, which they cannot directly control. Roosevelt can let the police and the army deliberately release water, and then their industrial capitalists will definitely suffer heavy losses. And they cannot directly control these administrative powers. Once they have direct control, they will become the target of the public.
Roosevelt also used this ~www.novelbuddy.com~ to use the administrative power in his hands to force those consortiums to agree to expand the army.
"Expand the army immediately. Our army must reach 600,000! Moreover, the military budget has increased, and our military expenditure for research and development of new weapons has also increased. We will set up a professional military intelligence agency to be responsible for specialized intelligence work, so that we can do what we need Get this done as soon as possible," Roosevelt began to shout.
Hearing this news, those American military generals also screamed one by one. This time they finally expanded their army, otherwise the entire American army would only be in the tens of thousands. Once these tens of thousands of people are scattered across the country, it will be of almost no use, just meaning. Many areas in the United States are not guarded by the army, and they rely on the local people to govern themselves. Now that the federal government has an army, it is only in this way that the strength of the government and the army can be guaranteed. This represents a huge increase in the military's influence, and who wouldn't want that? So they immediately yelled. Of course, those financial groups have compromised this time, so they naturally want to complete this military expansion plan as soon as possible. Only by creating the established facts as soon as possible can we gain real stability and avoid those consortiums going back on their word and causing a lot of problems.
"We must expand our 600,000 troops within four months!" Roosevelt said loudly. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users please browse and read for a better reading experience.
