Chapter 2921 Declaring War
March 1946, 3, is a symbolic day in later generations, because on this day, China and the United States officially went to war, which means that the Third World War officially started.

The third world war, this is a term that has caused a lot of controversy in later generations.Regardless of whether it is the continuation of the Second World War or the beginning of the Third World War, or the Second Pacific War, one thing is certain: it was from this day that China became the country that replaced Germany and Japan and became the The country that pulls the most hatred in the world.

At this time, the term BJ time did not exist in the world. The Western used to describe China's time. It used to be Guangzhou time, but now it is Chongqing time.At 03:30 in the afternoon of Chongqing time, many foreign journalists stationed in Chongqing received a notice from the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. They were told that the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs would hold a press conference at four o'clock. A special explanation will be made on the assassination of the Chinese President and Prime Minister at the same time.

Gao En has been in China for a year and a half as a resident reporter for the New York Times in Chongqing. Before that, he mainly covered news about the Sino-Japanese war. Now, at the request of the headquarters, he has successfully shifted his focus to Chinese politics. and people's livelihood. The New York Times, or the shift in the attention of American audiences to Chinese news, can be seen as a point of reference for the development of Sino-US relations.From being a close ally at the beginning to being neither an enemy nor a friend, it is not difficult to see that the public relations department of the US government is very good at guiding public opinion, and its kung fu of turning a deer into a horse is first-rate.

Because he didn't know that the simultaneous assassination of Ouyang Yun and Lao Jiang was planned by his compatriot Prius, so Gao En attached great importance to this news, thinking that it could just be used to explain to the domestic people the intrigue and political struggle of the Chinese government. cruel.

"When you study Chinese history, you will find that Chinese people have a glorious tradition of internal conflicts. It is no exaggeration to say that Chinese history is a history of internal conflicts in China... This has to be said to be a kind of sadness for being a Chinese..." On the way to the press conference hall of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Gao En even thought up the above sentence for tomorrow's newsletter, and felt that such a sentence would definitely arouse the enthusiasm of the Chinese people to read.

Perhaps because of such complicated thoughts in Gao En's mind, when Mei Lanshu announced the interrogation results and picked Prius out, Gao En's reaction at that time was as if he had been struck by lightning for a full 30 seconds. Sitting there motionless.

Gao En's status as a reporter for the "New York Times" made him well-known in the circle of foreign journalists in Chongqing. Therefore, when Mei Lanshu threw out violent information about the Americans, the reporters from other countries present mainly knew that Gao En was there. This person immediately turned his attention to him.Quite a few people who usually don't understand his behavior or just don't like the United States, even reveal a teasing meaning in their eyes without hiding it.

"...Whether it is tolerable or unbearable, in view of this despicable behavior of the US government, China's wartime Supreme Command has made the following decisions-[-], to terminate all alliances and cooperation with the United States; [-], in order to retaliate against the US government for our The assassination of the leader, from now on, the Chinese government will regard the United States as a hostile country, and reserves the right to seek justice through war..."

Regarding the content of this press conference, many well-informed foreign journalists already knew it before they attended.Therefore, they were not too surprised when Mei Lanshu cut to the chase at the beginning of the press conference and threw out the rumor that "the assassination of Ouyang Yun and Lao Jiang was done by Americans behind the scenes".

Most of the reporters have stayed in China for quite a long time, and have a certain understanding of the current Chinese government and the leaders of the Chinese government, so they know that no matter what the truth is, the Chinese government cannot suffer from being dumb.Coupled with the fact that the secret agreement between the United States and Japan is already recognized, even if Price's American citizenship is not accurate, the Chinese will definitely let the Americans bear the blame.

To quote a well-known British journalist: It doesn’t matter whether there is such a person as Price, and it doesn’t matter whether Price is an American. With the character of the Chinese, will they admit that the assassination was due to political struggle?It is absolutely impossible, so the Americans will be blamed.

However, even if the vast majority of foreign journalists have acquiesced to the fact that the Americans will take the blame, even if they were given [-] points of imagination, they would never have imagined that the Chinese government would go one step further and directly turn the blame into a scapegoat. casus belli.

As the secret agreement between the United States and Japan has become a secret that is not a secret, the vast majority of foreign journalists know that sooner or later there will be a war between China and the United States.At the same time, out of their understanding of the international situation, they also believe that even if China and the United States really start a war, the active side will only be the United States.

Reporters have plenty of channels to learn all kinds of official and non-governmental news, so they know that despite the current prestige of the Chinese government, not only has the absolute upper hand in the war against Japan, but also wants to have a high status in the international arena.However, as long as the Americans declare war on her, there will be a situation of being besieged from all sides.

"British people, Russians, which one is a good person? They may not dare to challenge China alone, but do you think they will turn a blind eye to the opportunity to beat a dog in the water? No, it is absolutely impossible!" This is a reporter from a neutral country. Comments posted.

A very objective comment, but it now appears to be wrong.Obviously, they underestimated how crazy the Chinese are.

After Mei Lanshu finished speaking, an official from the Information Department of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, who presided over the press conference, stepped forward and said to the stunned reporters below: "Now is the question time. You can ask any questions you have."

No one spoke, and everyone was startled or intimidated by Mei Lanshu's words.

"Damn! This is, China has declared war on the United States?" A reporter from a neutral country said in his mind.

"Did I hear correctly? China declared war on the United States?!" This was a question that popped up in the mind of a British reporter.

five seconds!ten seconds! 15 seconds!Finally, a French reporter was the first to wake up. He stood up excitedly and asked impatiently, "Madam Spokesperson, may I ask, do you mean that the Chinese government has declared war on the US government?"

Startled by his words, all the reporters immediately cast their eyes on Mei Lanshu's face.

The expression on Mei Lanshu's face was as calm as ever. She nodded to the French reporter and said, "Mr. Reporter, your understanding is correct!"

"Ah!" Someone exclaimed, and then, more hands were raised.

Gao En had also recovered his sanity at this time, his heart was pounding, and a voice shouted in his heart: "It's coming, it's finally here!"
