Open conspiracies are impossible to crack. For example, regarding the intelligence agencies China has developed in the United States, as long as the members aren't foolish enough to shout that they are politically inclined towards the Communist Party, there is basically no danger. Even if caught, as long as they insist that everything they did was consistent with American business practices, and there is no evidence in their behavior to prove they are standing on the side of the Communist Party. Americans doing the same things, even more excessively, can be found everywhere.

Not only in intelligence agencies is the open conspiracy followed, but the People's Party also does the same in the international situation. China needs time to digest the South. In the United States, various political parties need to establish their own banners to gain political dominance. More accurately, the Republican Party is doing everything possible to oppose Roosevelt's New Deal. Since the Republican Party itself needs ammunition to attack Roosevelt, the information provided by these American "communist sympathizers" is exactly what the Republican Party is trying to dig up but cannot find.

American Republicans are basically all anti-communists. Yet, such a group of anti-communists has conducted "good cooperation" with the People's Party based on their own interests. This is the so-called diversity of interests. From the perspective of "On Contradiction", the People's Party understands the principal contradiction and secondary contradiction in the United States, so it can launch a "United Front".

As the US President and a strategist, Roosevelt knows very well that there are too many ways for the US to get benefits from the British. Not to mention the benefits that can be obtained from "Traitor to England Churchill", the United States could openly send troops to annex Canada. Attempting to annex Canada was not Roosevelt's own creation; before the White House was painted white, the United States had done it once. It was just that that war failed completely; the British not only drove the US out of Canada but also pushed back, hitting Washington directly and burning government institutions.

Now the United States has not yet fully conscripted, and its industrial production capacity has not been fully converted into military capability. Attacking Canada would certainly be somewhat strenuous, but facing a Britain that is besieged on all sides, the United States is not without a chance of winning. After joining the frenzy of the world powers carving up Britain, the United States is destined to get Canada, doubling the US territory. Even among the successive US presidents, Roosevelt's achievement of expanding the territory would be unparalleled.

But after doing so, the United States would only get Canada. Roosevelt is very clear about this. After the world powers carve up Britain, British interests in other regions will be swallowed up by other countries. The result is that the United States is likely to shrink in North America forever. Roosevelt does not think this is the true bright future of the United States.

If Britain can be made a follower of the United States, the United States will inherit the huge power accumulated by Britain's hegemony over hundreds of years. That would be equivalent to the United States swallowing Britain alone. Compared with carving up Britain with the great powers, the benefits are undoubtedly much greater.

Now Roosevelt can be said to have fully guided American public opinion; Roosevelt knows American public opinion very well. Britain may be powerful, but Britain has never represented any justice in American public opinion. To get the entire United States to throw itself into an unprecedented war requires a major event that can stimulate American public opinion. After thinking it over, Roosevelt felt that he still had to probe China, this newly rising power.

Now the American public believes that the war between Germany and Britain is just a continuation of World War I. The United States must absolutely not participate in the war against Germany as it did last time. Roosevelt believes that before long, the Chinese will choose to ally with Germany. At this stage, if he cannot directly declare war on Germany, he might as well open a breach from China.

It's just that Roosevelt was born in 1882, two years "younger" than Chen Ke. Regarding this Chinese leader who is two years older than him, Roosevelt feels his hopes might be a bit unreliable. Previous history has proven one thing: Chen Ke is by no means a man who acts on emotion. Although everyone thinks Chen Ke is a person with clear love and hate, that is all. Chen Ke's personal love and hate have never dominated Chen Ke's actions. This person views the world with a terrible perspective that can almost see through the future. Every strategic choice of his, in hindsight, has sought the greatest benefit for China. Roosevelt has no confidence in using some small tricks to make Chen Ke make a strategic misjudgment.

Even if he has no confidence, Roosevelt never believes that pies will fall from the sky. Doing it might not be effective, but if he does nothing, it will definitely have no effect.

After the war between China and Britain began, the American media and public opinion once treated the war between these two countries with a mentality of watching a joke and watching the excitement. Later, the US side began to attack China's "aggression", but Americans themselves did not really take this seriously.

Now the US government, led by Roosevelt, has begun to send strong signals to China. First, Roosevelt announced the suspension of oil trade between China and the US, and the Democrats in Congress also began to discuss whether to further consider suspending Sino-US trade.

If you want to condemn someone, you can always find a pretext. No one mentioned the trade balance policy maintained between China and the United States for more than twenty years, but the United States began to fiercely attack the many "evil deeds" in China's commercial trade. It is a bit excessive for the United States to brazenly accuse China of creating a trade surplus. The various fields of China's trade surplus with the United States began to be mentioned. But the United States did not mention a word about the fields where the United States has a trade deficit with China.

According to the US propaganda line, China has been extracting a large surplus from the US for decades. As a mercantilist United States, such propaganda is very easy to trigger hostility and hatred. Then the US Congress began to "discuss" whether to impose high tariffs on Chinese goods. The United States did not mention that the tariff in China's commercial trade is only 5%, but only talked about the "low tariff" of the United States against China.

For a time, various vicious views of the United States against China were rampant. Although the US side claims not to engage in fascism, Goebbels' "a lie repeated a thousand times becomes the truth" is also played quite handily by the United States.

Starting with a fierce attack on China commercially, the United States soon turned to a tough attitude attacking China's aggression, demanding that China withdraw from the territories of other countries it had invaded.

Roosevelt's doing so is obviously trying to anger China and make China afraid. But Chen Ke was not brought up on fear, nor is he Japanese. When Japan was threatened like this back then, plus domestic oil needs could not be met, it insisted on adopting the plan to attack Pearl Harbor.

The attack on Pearl Harbor itself is considered a trap set by the United States for Japan. The current China does not lack oil sources domestically, and the United States does not have any ability to threaten China's import of strategic materials. Seeing that as long as further strikes are carried out against Britain, China can obtain more oil sources from the Middle East. The People's Party naturally refuses to fall for this trap.

As a counterattack, funded by China, the various countries in Southeast Asia that have already become independent sent telegrams to the major countries in the world, requesting to establish diplomatic relations with the major countries in the world after being liberated from the colonies.

The Soviet Union was naturally the first to respond, and Germany was the second to respond. The British Foreign Office did not respond to this at all. Moreover, the British side vigorously suppressed the domestic media, demanding that they absolutely must not publish such news.

The United States naturally also received formal requests from the Southeast Asian countries. Roosevelt demanded that the US side ignore them. The reason is that these countries are now under China's military occupation, and all their choices are tricks played by China behind the scenes.

Many large American capital consortiums believe that if the United States participates in the war, there will be unlimited business opportunities. Attacking Roosevelt is one thing, but everyone must cooperate on commercial interests. With the efforts of the large consortiums, the US mainstream media collectively implemented a blackout on the independence events of the Southeast Asian countries.

Those Americans cooperating with China were quite dissatisfied with this, but the Chinese side told these people, "You must protect yourselves well. Since the US government has already made such a decision, your jumping out will have no effect at all. Please use your precious strength in more useful places in the future."

Chen Ke didn't care about this; in fact, the US actions made him feel it was very interesting. There is no possibility of maintaining the status quo through negotiations between China and Britain at this stage, and China's territorial expansion also ends here. In the next stage, China's main work is to guard against possible attacks by the United States.

If there is a country that Chen Ke would feel afraid of, in this world there is only the United States. This is the only country that can compete with China in industrial strength. In the southward strategy, the only country Chen Ke repeatedly considered was the United States. If it were only Britain, Chen Ke would have long since ordered to kill his way towards Britain.

To deal with the possible attack by the United States, China has spent huge national strength to strengthen military facilities including industry, logistics, and airports in Borneo, Sulawesi, New Zealand, Australia, and a series of other islands. Now that the United States has turned against China, Chen Ke is not so afraid instead. With a defensive system that has achieved initial results, the Americans can't even play leapfrog now.

The US colony, the Philippines, geographically speaking, is a key strategic location deeply inserted into China's defense system. Being in the core position of the enemy also means being surrounded by the enemy. Now the air bases in Taiwan and the air bases in Borneo can launch thousands of aircraft at any time to carry out strategic bombing of the Philippines controlled by the United States. This is not ordinary strategic bombing, but shuttle bombing. Chinese planes take off from Taiwan, bomb the Philippines en route, and fly directly to Borneo. Fighter jets taking off from Borneo take Taiwan as their destination.

Because the planes don't consider flying back at all, the flight routes are very diverse, as long as the fuel is sufficient for the voyage. American planes have to consider the fuel problem; the fuel for the voyage minus the fuel for takeoff and return is the combat fuel. If American planes chase Chinese Air Force fighters, they will run head-on into the escort formations taking off from Taiwan or Borneo; shuttle bombing can be roughly predicted. Air combat is far less controllable; if the Americans run out of fuel, they can only land in the sea and pray for luck.

The US Pacific Fleet is completely within the strike range of China's land-based aviation, and the Air Force does not fear the Yankee Navy at all. With the means to solve the enemy, the Chinese side has even less to fear.

So no matter how Roosevelt threatens, the Chinese side has not taken this matter seriously. Since the United States needs an excuse for war, China resolutely will not give the Americans an excuse for war. It's just that the Yankees have a nature of being aggressive and combative, and the possibility of Roosevelt jumping over the wall in desperation and forcibly starting a war cannot be completely ruled out.

If the Yankees suffer heavy losses in this war, the Americans might fight China to the death for the sake of face. Hatred is created by fighting. When a war starts, there are often very clear reasons. Later on, the accumulated blood debts will make the hatred between the two sides accumulate to an unresolvable level. In modern warfare, accumulating enough hatred is the easiest thing.

Roosevelt's attempt to force China to show hostility towards the United States failed for the time being. Even if he had expected this result beforehand, Roosevelt was still very unhappy in his heart when he really faced it.

But Roosevelt is by no means a person who waits for death. Even if this approach was unsuccessful, it can be considered to have increased a lot of American ill feelings towards China. After suspending the oil trade between the United States and China, Roosevelt privately suggested to the British wartime Prime Minister Fatty Qiu to strengthen control over China.

Modern warfare is about logistics. Without oil supply, China cannot show any special ability at sea either. As long as Britain does not lose the Middle East, it can strangle China's oil supply. Strategically, this is a heavy blow to China.
