Crossing the spy war, my code name is God of Wealth

Chapter 647 Can’t Stop It Anymore

Mr. A is his new code name, and Ms. K is Song Jiayu's code name.

Moreover, in order to confirm Li Xianshu's inference, Chen Yang also specifically instructed that Song Jiayu's telegram be deliberately exposed to the eyes and ears of the Japanese.

They knew that the information was about the top leaders in Nanjing and the Japanese army, which would further confirm the identity of this person.

Having said that, it seems that Chen Yang is indeed suspicious by doing this, but compared to those people, Chen Yang's suspicion can be ignored.

Because his main job was in the transportation department, not in Jinling's internal affairs, although he was in charge of intelligence work, everyone knew that he basically did not interfere in intelligence work.

Based on the existing evidence, Jinling Interior Minister Chen Qun is probably more suspicious than him.

Moreover, Li Xianshu would not believe that Chen Yang, a transporter, would be interested in accessing intelligence.

If he wanted to get serious about intelligence, the first thing Li Xianshu would do was to hand over several lines within the consulate to him.

However, Chen Yang was not interested in intelligence work from the beginning to the end, and even No. 76 kept urging him to go.

If you don't urge him, he probably won't go for a year or two.

July 1940, 7, the White House, USA.

Secretary of State Hull walked into the President's office with a heavy face and handed the intelligence in his hand to the President.

"What on earth do these little rascals want to do? They are actually planning to attack the Philippines?" When the President saw the intelligence sent by Hull, his face was immediately filled with anger.

"Mr. President, the current situation is very unfavorable to us. If we want to protect our interests in Southeast Asia, I think we must take some action."

As soon as Hull finished speaking, the anger on the President's face disappeared, replaced by waves of distress.

He knew very well that, as of now, the Chinese people did not want to participate in the war at all.

They had learned their lesson. They participated in the First World War, but were tricked by Britain and France. They contributed but gained nothing, and had to continue to shrink in North America and watch others prosper.

So, when World War II broke out again, almost no one in the country was willing to join the war.

Since there's no way to gain any political benefits anyway, we might as well take advantage of the war to make more money.

Who else can reach the North American continent?

Therefore, the President, who was eager to bring the United States into this war feast, was immediately questioned by many people.

In order to quell these people's doubts and show that he is peace-loving and will not drag the country into the quagmire of war, the President even played a trick of covering his ears and stealing the bell.

First, he issued a statement to the presidential candidate nominating convention through Senate leader Alben Barkley, announcing that he had no desire or purpose to serve as the next president, and urged the representatives to select a suitable candidate as soon as possible.

Mr. Buckley was the leader of the Senate, and no one doubted that the message he conveyed was wrong.

Just when everyone was feeling extremely sorry for the President's decision, the President, whom they respected the most, actually put his name on the nomination list through Senator Lister Hill.

When the Democrats held their presidential nominating convention in Chicago, the President's list of candidates was submitted to the convention.

As expected, the conference fell into chaos when the name was seen.

Not only the Republicans who were watching from the sidelines, but also the representatives of the Democratic Party expressed extreme dissatisfaction with the president's behavior.

As a president, he actually did such a petty trick. If this gets out to others, he would be totally disgraced.

Everyone expressed their strong opposition to the President by booing and jeers.

In particular, Republican presidential candidate Wendell Willkie launched an attack, telling people,

"We cannot be deceived by the president. Electing him means sending our sons, brothers and lovers to their graves."

Faced with this situation, the president was forced to change his strategy and assure voters that he was in favor of peace.

They even went so far as to make a promise: "Your children will not be sent to fight in any foreign war. The purpose of our defense is defense."

But not long after they said this, they changed their strategy and sent troops to the Philippines to confront the Japanese head-on?

“Mr. President, you should know that politics is a process of constant compromise.”

Hull looked at the President and said seriously, "The Philippines is crucial to our layout in Southeast Asia."

"If they lose it, the Japanese will soon be able to obtain a large number of resources to replenish the battlefield in Southeast Asia."

"They can also continue to exert pressure on the Chinese battlefield. By then, I am afraid that even China will be occupied by them."

Speaking of this, the President gets angry.

Since 1937, the total amount of loans the United States has provided to the Chinese government has exceeded 100 million US dollars.

However, they continued to retreat and showed no signs of counterattack.

The most disgusting thing is that the loan was received by the government, but the FBI found that their first lady’s deposit amount in the United States was not lower than the loan amount.

Your family is so rich, yet you still need to ask the federal government for a loan? Do you really think of us as fat sheep?

"The Philippines cannot be lost so easily. Let General Mike prepare and help the Philippines hold on."

"By the way, they said before that in order to prevent the national treasury from being affected by the war, they were going to ship a batch of U.S. bonds and gold over here."

"Let's get this done as soon as possible so the Japanese don't take advantage of us."

Hull nodded, but did not intend to leave immediately. After a moment of silence, he took out a report from his pocket.

"Mr. President, this is the report that Mr. William Morgan asked me to pass on to you."

"They are planning to invest in a penicillin pharmaceutical factory and hope to get your approval."

The President was slightly stunned. "Penicillin is the anti-inflammatory drug. Isn't the Ministry of Health already conducting experiments on it?"

"Why is Mr. William suddenly interested in this medicine?"

Hull said in a deep voice: "Three days ago, a French nobleman from England met Mr. William and brought the patent authorization and various data of this drug."

"To be precise, what the Ministry of Health is doing now is imitation, and it has not been authorized by the other party."

The President frowned and said, "Is there any way to delay it? Professor Bruce said last time that the research and development has reached a bottleneck period and there will be a breakthrough soon."

"The profit of this drug is no less than that of arms. What if we give it to others?"

Hull was silent for a long time, but still shook his head slowly: "Mr. President, you still need the support of the Morgan Consortium for your future."

"Besides, they have the patent and authorization for this drug, so we really can't find any reason to hold them back."

"This time, we really can't stop it."
