"oh?"

Roosevelt was about to push away these bad news habitually, but when he heard it was a telegram sent by Stilwell, he quickly reached out to receive it.

"Hull, come and check out this telegram, too."

After a moment, Roosevelt's sad face finally showed a hint of joy. After Secretary of State Hull finished reading the message, he spoke: "I really didn't expect that Yang Fan was really capable. He did so many things in just over a month.

So far, not only has an extremely stable defense line been established, but the infrastructure work in northern Myanmar has also been very exciting. Now, in just over a week, more than 7,000 Japanese invaders have been wiped out at the cost of less than 2,000 casualties.

If the army of the Republic of China government had such combat effectiveness, how could the Asian battlefield fall to its present level?"

Hull nodded and said, "Yang Fan is indeed very good at seizing fighters. He is very good at seizing fighter jets and always gives people unexpected surprises.

If this casualty ratio can be maintained, it will be impossible for the Myanmar War Zone to become the Waterloo for the Japanese invaders!”

After a pause, Hull said worriedly: "But there is one thing that is right, in the face of absolute strength, any skill is useless!

Japan has more than 500,000 elite army troops on the Southeast Asian battlefield, as well as a powerful air force and naval fleet. If the war in Myanmar is anxious and unhappy, it will soon become the key target of the Japanese army's offensive.

At that time, even if Yang Fan has many strategies, it may not work!"

Roosevelt nodded and said, "This is also what I am worried about. If the Asian battlefield completely collapses and there is no restraint, the Japanese will definitely concentrate their superior forces to attack Australia, and they may even use the Hawaiian Islands as a fulcrum to launch an attack on the United States."

Hull continued: "So, we must have Yang Fan, the surprise soldier, play a greater role, so that Myanmar can become a flesh-and-blood mill for the Japanese, and the prerequisite is to provide support to Yang Fan to the greatest extent!

However, due to the blockade of the Pacific Ocean, military aid sent from the United States must first pass through the Atlantic Ocean, then enter the Indian Ocean through the Cape of Good Hope at the southern end of Africa, and then transport it from India to Myanmar via land.

Such a long transportation supply money is not only extremely time-consuming, but also very susceptible to attacks by the Japanese Navy and Air Force!"

Roosevelt nodded and said, "Yes, the situation is very clear at the moment. This unprecedentedly huge world anti-fascist war is a difficult and protracted war and will not end in three to five years!

As the scale of the war continues to expand, the consumption of military supplies on each battlefield will increase. Even if the American industrial capacity can afford such a huge material demand, the material transportation capacity may be unbearable.

Even if it is the most conservative estimate, it would be good if 30% of the 10 tons of military supplies were sent from the United States to Myanmar.

What's worse is that if Japan was determined to blockade at any cost, it would be impossible for a ton of supplies to reach Myanmar!

Such huge material loss and ship loss are even more difficult to bear even if America has the world's most powerful industrial manufacturing capacity.

In that case, not only will Myanmar not be able to obtain supplies to cope with high-intensity consumption, but China may also reduce its combat effectiveness due to lack of supplies, and even a series of chain reactions will occur, causing the surrenderism in China to rise again!"

After a pause, Roosevelt changed his tone and said, "If the development plan formulated by Stilwell and Yang Fan can be realized, and a complete military-industry system can be created in northern Myanmar, where firearms, cannons, cars, tanks, and even aircraft and ships can be produced nearby.

Myanmar has oil field resources and abundant minerals, and can grow large areas of high-quality rice, which is completely possible to achieve self-sufficiency.

If Myanmar can really produce aircraft, tanks and cannons within one year, then the production and transportation pressures undertaken by the United States can be greatly reduced. Even at a certain stage, you can ignore the Asian battlefield at all, and you only need to focus on the European and African battlefields!"

Hull continued, singing and talking: "I think this plan is very executable, and Yang Fan doesn't ask for much, just to ensure air superiority, gain full control of Myanmar, and some industrial production lines.

The industrial capacity that is about to be eliminated in China is outdated and backward for the US government, but it is still available for other countries and regions.

Therefore, this has no problem with the United States, and I believe there will be no problem with the British Empire.

If you can protect Myanmar, India, where the UK’s most core interests lie, can obtain absolute security!

This is the best result for the UK, and there should not be more extravagant desires!"

Hull naturally did not feel sorry for betraying the interests of the British, but instead felt excited and happy because these damn British people were too arrogant and too greedy!

At this moment of crisis, those greedy British people are still making money from the national crisis, seeking excessive planting of opium, cutting teak, mining and oil, and raising prices!

"That's right! That's what it should be! As Stilwell said, the sooner the industrial base in northern Myanmar is built, the sooner the military supplies can be provided, which will be more beneficial to the entire Southeast Asia and the entire Asian battlefield!

The current future of the European and African battlefields is dim and it is difficult to change in a short period of time. If the Asian Allies can launch a strategic counterattack as soon as possible, then the world pattern will be greatly reversed!"

Roosevelt nodded excitedly and said to the secretary standing next to him:

"Call back to Stilwell immediately. We fully agree with his plan and will raise Myanmar's demand to priority! Tell him that he can let go and not have any scruples. As long as he can defend Myanmar and severely damage the Japanese invaders, all means are allowed!"

"Okay! Mr. President!"

The young and beautiful secretary lady nodded very happy. She was naturally very happy to see her president and secretary of state so happy and to hear that she could effectively deal with the brutal and despicable Japanese invaders.

At the same time, the secretary was full of curiosity and yearning for Yang Fan, a Chinese man mentioned by the President and Secretary of State many times, and silently remembered the name of this Chinese man in his heart!

After a pause, Roosevelt said to Hull: "By the way, I also sent a telegram to Chennard, telling him that a large number of advanced P51 fighters will be transported to Myanmar soon, so that they must cooperate with the Myanmar war zone to fight for air supremacy, and ensure the construction and protection of the industrial base in northern Myanmar!"

"I believe he will be very happy after hearing this news!"
