The Tehran meeting was held as scheduled. Update

Before the meeting, Chiang Kai-shek held talks with Churchill, Shi Daling and Roosevelt respectively.

Both China, Britain and the Soviet Union were involved in issues of territorial and privilege. Chiang Kai-shek believed that these issues should be negotiated first between the allies, otherwise he would not be able to explain to the people who were eager to win interests for China.

Before negotiating with Churchill, Chiang Kai-shek had a long talk with Chen Jiashen, who arrived in Tehran in advance, and accepted a large bag of materials submitted to him by Chen Jiashen.

The materials are all facts and evidence collected by Chen Jiashen for a long time about the British invasion of Chinese territory, as well as Chen Jiashen's suggestions on how to deal with the cunning Churchill.

Regarding national interests, Chen Jiashen and Chiang Kai-shek temporarily put aside their personal prejudices and had a very harmonious conversation.

When Lao Jiang put a detailed information on the table in front of Churchill, Churchill immediately pulled his round face into a horse's face after seeing it.

The McMahon Line issue, the 1941 Line issue, the Hong Kong issue, and the British colonists oppressing overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia are all true and irrefutable.

Churchill was furious and even infuriated that he burned a hole in his clothes without notice. Chiang Kai-shek actually mentioned the McMahon line and knew so clearly that he was very shocked, but the British Empire should not succumb to these "intimidations".

"Absolutely impossible!" Churchill said: "The British Empire will never give up these interests, strength, strength! What's the use of talking about these with me without strength? Do you no longer need the British Empire to help you fight against Japan? These are the prices."

Jiang had known that Churchill must have reacted like this, and the imperialists were like this. He played the cards Chen Jiashen provided him with.

Support India**, support Myanmar**, support Malay**, accept Hong Kong, in short, tell Churchill that if these unequal treaties are not cancelled, he will cause trouble for the British after the war. Chiang Kai-shek suppressed his anger and warned: "You and I know that Japan will lose this war. After the war, China will restore its strength. We will have the ability to accomplish what I said. If Mr. Churchill still wants to keep good with us, think of China selling your industrial products, and want to maintain a large amount of investment interests in China, then you must cancel these treaties to gain the trust and friendship of our government. "

These cards were played fiercely and powerfully, and Churchill was stunned for a moment and rushed out of the conference room angrily. Both sides parted in disagreement.

That evening, Churchill, who was advised by the "expert", once again cursed and asked to see Lao Chiang. In Churchill's eyes, there was no word of praise or criticism, but only the interests of the British Empire. For the sake of interests, knocking on the door in the middle of the night to see him, what is the instant smile?

Churchill made another move, and this move hit Lao Chiang's weakness. Churchill agreed to help Lao Chiang fight after the war, and Zhengzhi supported him. He gave ten destroyers and twenty small and medium-sized minesweepers, landing ships, transport ships, etc. a total of 30,000 tons of ships. The exchange condition was to maintain the status quo and everything remained unchanged.

This move is cruel. Churchill found out that Chiang Kai-shek would not tolerate the existence of the Yan'an regime and used the internal conflicts of China to play a trump card. Chiang Kai-shek was caught.

The private talks with Shi Daling on the second day were also very difficult. Shi Daling received information from Churchill's secret delivery and was fearless. He said that if Chiang Kai-shek could take away Japan himself, he could consider returning it to Outer Mongolia, but China could not station troops in Outer Mongolia, and the Soviet Union enjoyed 50 years of mining rights; if Chiang Kai-shek could not take away Japan himself, the Soviet Union would send troops to help him fight when it was convenient, and would send troops to China regardless of whether he was invited or not. As a reward for sending troops to fight Japan, Outer Mongolia must maintain the "**" status quo.

If Chiang Kai-shek drove away Japan himself, he could also intervene in Chinese affairs and support Yan'an after the war. He also said that if he did not intervene in Chinese affairs after the war, that is, he would not support Yan'an, the conditions would be that the Sino-Soviet ruled Outer Mongolia for fifty years, and the Outer Mongolia people would freely vote to decide their ownership in fifty years.

Shi Daling held two good cards and beat Chiang Kai-shek to the point of losing his temper. These two points mentioned by Shi Daling were very difficult for Chiang Kai-shek. It was very difficult to kill Japan by himself. Even if he tried his best to kill Japan by himself, the Soviets also threatened to support Yan'an to compete for power with him. The Yan'an Association, which was supported by the Soviets, was very difficult to deal with, and the outcome was unpredictable.

Lao Jiang was cursing in his heart. He didn't want to sign such an agreement, so he adopted the procrastination method, without comment, and no answer, and the negotiations were fruitless. What Jiang Jiang deserves to comfort himself was that he finally found out Shi Daling's trump card. Although the cards in his hand are not as big as his, it is difficult to say in time, so Jiang comforted himself and said.

It was much more pleasant to meet Roosevelt in private. Roosevelt praised Chiang Kai-shek's victory in the puppet Manchukuo and Myanmar battlefields, and guaranteed that the United States would support China in taking back "Manchuria", Taiwan, and Penghu Islands. It also stated that it could provide equipment from 90 divisions, provide a billion-dollar loan, and increase the amount of rental materials.

The only thing that made Chiang Kai-shek a little unhappy was that Roosevelt praised the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Forces in front of him, and even said that the combat effectiveness of this army was comparable to that of the elite American troops. At the same time, Roosevelt seemed to criticize Chiang Kai-shek intentionally or unintentionally for not caring about the issue of disaster victims in Henan. Chiang Kai-shek defended a few words in embarrassment, but he could not deny the facts and had to say that after returning to China, Ma increased the efforts to provide disaster relief and clean up the hearts of the people.

After the little unpleasantness passed, Roosevelt invited Chiang Kai-shek to have lunch. During the meal, Roosevelt suddenly asked: "How does the Chairman view the Ryukyu issue? As far as I know, Ryukyu was once a vassal state of China and was not occupied by the Japanese for a long time. If Japan was to be curbed after the war, then we must occupy Ryukyu. Do you want it?"

This question came suddenly, and Chiang Kai-shek never thought about it, and he didn't think about it after a brain teaser, and asked back: "What do you want to do with Mr. President?"

"That's how I thought about it." Roosevelt looked at Lao Jiang's bald head with a smile, as if the bald head was very interesting.

"The Japanese are still very powerful in combat. If they defend Ryukyu to the death, it will be really difficult to deal with. If the chairman is interested in this place, you should share my pressure. I suggest that our two armies jointly attack Ryukyu. What do you think?"

"Together? How to be together?" Lao Jiang opened his eyes wide in surprise, and he secretly cried in his heart.

"You have two divisions of infantry, I have four divisions and navy. After the battle comes, how about Ryukyu? The conditions are very good."

Sure enough, I really wanted me to send troops! I knew that Roosevelt would not be so kind to me. Jiang Jiang stayed for a long time without saying a word.

Disappointed Roosevelt lowered his head and put on his big pipe and sighed softly.

After a while, Roosevelt saw that Chiang Kai-shek was still in a daze, so he had to whisper: "Mr. Chairman, I'm tired. If you have anything to do, make a decision at the official meeting tomorrow."

Roosevelt issued an order to expel guests. After listening to the translation, Jiang Jiang couldn't help feeling a little uneasy. Facing Roosevelt, the head of the world's most powerful country and the most powerful person in the world who had just promised to give him a lot of assistance, he didn't want to make Roosevelt unhappy because of this.

But if you want to provide two main players to do something that he thinks is "no benefit", and you really can't bear to let it go, what should you do?

Just as Roosevelt signaled his followers to come and push the wheelchair, Jiang Jiang suddenly had an idea and shouted: "Slow!"

Roosevelt's eyes lit up.

Lao Jiang waved his arm and said loudly in a tone that was either excited or proud: "Mr. President, I think there is a unit that can take on important responsibilities. Mr. President has always admired the Anti-Japanese United Nations. I think they will not let down the President's trust in them. Yes! I decided, let them go!"
