Chapter 796

Some people say that the rise of the United States was due to the great wealth of war in World War I and World War II.

In fact, it is not entirely correct. As early as 1894, the GDP of the United States surpassed that of the United Kingdom. In 1911, the total industrial output value accounted for 36% of the world.

Germany ranked second with 16% and Britain with 15%, after which World War I broke out.

In fact, the rise of the United States has something to do with the war. The political system and inclusiveness, as well as the fact that the two wars were far away from home and brought in a lot of capital, these are the reasons why it is strong.

But it's a bit self deceptive to put it all down to "war money.".

As a matter of fact, it will never be decided whether the transportation of materials to the belligerent countries during the war is regarded as war wealth.

Take the World War II as an example. Without the support of American industry and resources, it is still uncertain whether Britain can survive until the United States enters the war.

In addition, the support of China and the United States in various aspects in the later period also played a key role.

At this moment, Li Zitao is on Capitol Hill, attending a special meeting in response to the outbreak of the Debo campaign.

Roosevelt said a lot at the meeting and used the burning of the Capitol in 1814 to persuade Congress to repeal the embargo.

"To tell you this is just a review of history, but if the United States continues to insist that this war has nothing to do with us, with people, freedom, and justice, terrible things will happen in the future."

Both inside and outside Congress are watching this debate. Whether to abolish the embargo clause is closely related to everyone's life and security.

Negative people worry that doing so will drag America into the quagmire of war.

Those who hold the opinion in favor hold different opinions and have different reasons.

Some people want to seek business opportunities in the war, some think it is respect for the constitution, others think that the United States should take advantage of this opportunity to rise, and there are quarrels inside and outside Congress.

"The meeting will be suspended and the results will be announced in 40 minutes." The noise of the scene was suppressed, and members gathered to discuss after changing seats, or walked in groups to the lounge.

Li Zitao also left from the back row, heading for the corridor where Roosevelt disappeared.

"Mr. President, you have just made a wonderful speech. I think members will agree with you."

As soon as he arrived at the door of the rest room, Li Zitao heard a slightly familiar voice.

"I hear, John, that you have just finished your journey to Rome and have received the blessing of Pius XII?" Roosevelt said with a full, passionate smile.

"Yes, I had a good time communicating with the Pope. He was very kind. I learned a lot from him." Said John Kendy.

"Roosevelt, my friend, is there anything interesting to share?" Li Zitao pushed open the half door and walked in with a smile on his face.

John Kendy's expression changed several times when he saw him.

Li Zitao seemed not to find all this, and nodded to him with a smile: "Oh! Isn't this little John of the Kendy family? Well, have you finished your studies

"Almost. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Charlie." John nodded coldly.

"Well, although your father has done something ridiculous, I will not be angry with you... Maybe you should call me uncle, ha ha..."

Li Zitao laughed and patted him on the shoulder. Seeing John grinning and his shoulder falling, he knew that it was not a good feeling.

Seeing his chatting expression, Li Zitao nodded contentedly and asked Roosevelt about his future plans.

"If Congress agrees to lift the embargo, I will contact my friends in the UK... Charlie, I hope you can help them."

"Chamberlain's stubbornness and Prejudice destroyed the last chance of Eastern Europe,

in front of the dwarfs, the vacillation of the representatives of Britain and France contributed to Ye Xin's NC doctrine. In 35 years of open conscription, 36 years of Rhineland,

in 38 years, he won the vital Austria, and at the same time obtained the Sudeten region, with enough soldiers Now, he has the Czech Republic, the most powerful industrial country in Europe. Now, he has set his target on Poland and is about to succeed. "

Roosevelt clenched his fists, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he said: "the Soviets have taken action, and the situation in Europe will become strange and strange.

now Chamberlain has lost his last chance to cooperate with the Soviet Union. If his government still controls the country, it is hard to imagine what will happen in the future?"

"Your reasoning is a little serious." Li Zitao looks at him if he has some understanding.

Is he implying that he wants to intervene in British politics and let Chamberlain fall?

Five days before the special session of Parliament, the Soviet government submitted a statement to the Polish ambassador to Moscow.

"The collapse of the Polish government and its inability to maintain national stability and political situation also proves that the sovereignty of the Polish state and government no longer exists.Therefore, the treaty concluded between the Soviet Union and Poland was invalid, and Poland became a dangerous place that might threaten the Soviet Union and create chaos and accident.

in view of this, the Soviet Union, which has remained neutral so far, can no longer treat this complicated and dangerous situation with a neutral attitude. "

"The Soviet government will not ignore the fate of its compatriots living in Poland, Ukraine and Belarus. These compatriots have been abandoned,

their living environment and lives are under threat. In view of this situation, the Soviet government will order the troops of the general headquarters of the Soviet army to cross the border to protect the residents of western Ukraine and west Russia The life, property and legal wealth of the people. "

In the early morning of the same day, the Soviet Army crossed the border and marched into eastern Poland, not only entering western Ukraine and western Russia, but also crossing the kosson line.

According to the final information obtained before the meeting, the area of Poland occupied by the Soviet army reached 170000 square kilometers, involving about 10 million people.

At the same time, the Soviet side actively operated in the "protected" two countries to promote the establishment of the Soviet regime. Its purpose is self-evident, which is to completely integrate them into the Soviet Union.

"No, it's a fact, Charlie... Not only I saw it, but also some people in Britain saw him. He is my friend. Through many letters, we can

communicate with him, so that I can learn more about the current situation and situation in Britain and Europe."

Roosevelt was very worried about the current political situation in Britain. From the bottom of his heart, he really wanted to find the right way to influence its direction.

Li Zitao also probably understood who his friend was, one of the future three giants, Roosevelt's close friend and pen pal, and a v-hand who kept a lifelong hostility to the red regime.
