my bright sword career

Chapter 642 Just Acting
"General Gao, please allow me to express my sincerest apologies to you again. At the same time, please believe that none of this was our intention. Regarding the unfair treatment you and your team have suffered, I will ask Washington for instructions. I will give you a satisfactory answer later.”

Seeing Spruance's sincere expression, Gao Hongming knew that this was the greatest sincerity the other party could do.

He nodded: "General Spruance, I have seen your sincerity from your actions just now.

I always firmly believe that the friendship between your two countries is indestructible and will not be affected by what happened just now, and we will eventually fight side by side for the cause of fighting Japanese fascism until the Japanese declare their unconditional surrender! "

Spruance held Gao Hongming's hand tightly and said emotionally: "Okay...okay, with your words, I have more confidence in our great cause. Now please go back and rest first. As for the attack The plan for Tululu Mountain is temporarily suspended."

"understand!"

Gao Hongming stood at attention, bumped his heels and gave Spruance a military salute, and then walked out of the headquarters with Chi Yaohui.

After Gao Hongming and the others went out, a colonel who came with Spruance walked up behind him and frowned, "Sir, are we really going to deal with Major General John?"

Spruance frowned: "Why... do you want me to break my word in front of my allies?"

"Of course not." The colonel was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "I just think it's not worth it to remove a division commander for the sake of a Chinese person. I'm worried that the chief of staff will contact the generals at the meeting There will be opinions."

"what do you know?"

Spruance shook his head helplessly, and scolded with a look of hatred for iron and steel: "John is an idiot, he played a good deck of cards to pieces by himself, who can blame it?

Do you remember the telegram I sent him three days ago to send a force to launch a tentative attack on Tululu Mountain? "

The colonel nodded. This telegram was drafted by him himself, so he naturally remembered it.

"This is our home field, and we have the initiative. As long as John has a brain, he can give orders to the Huaxia Dispatch Corps according to the normal process, replenish them with ammunition supplies, and provide them with naval guns and air support. People charged in our stead.

But look what that idiot did? "

When he said this, Spruance's face turned red again, "Not only does this idiot not give any support, he even refuses to give him any supplies. If you were those Chinese people, wouldn't you Will there be trouble?"

The colonel could only show a helpless wry smile, it was more than a disturbance, if it were him, he might even have the intention to kill someone.

"So in order to stop the mouths of those Chinese people, I have to deal with John, do you understand?"

"General, I understand what you mean." The colonel nodded, "The most important thing now is to let those Chinese people see our sincerity, as for General John, he can only be wronged for a while.

After the limelight passes, it won't be too late for us to revive him again. "

Spruance gave him an appreciative look. His adjutant was indeed his assistant who had been with him for many years, and he quickly understood the meaning of what he did.

Reporting to Washington, dismissing John from his post, and even apologizing to Gao Hongming, these are just means, the purpose is to stabilize the heart of the Huaxia dispatch team, so that they can work for themselves.

As for John, is it a problem for them?
If I can dismiss him, I can reactivate him, and the price is just lip service.

However, when Spruance thought of Gao Hongming's fluent diplomatic vocabulary just now, he hesitated again in his heart. This Gao Hongming seemed to be difficult to get along with. Could his performance really deceive him?

It is said that after Gao Hongming and Chi Yaohui returned to the station of the dispatched corps, Chi Yaohui praised: "Sir, I didn't expect that General Spruance to be so approachable, and he took John down on the spot. It seems that there are still some people in the United States who understand."

Gao Hongming turned his head to look at Chi Yaohui, his scalp was numb all the time, and he stammered.

"Sir...you...why are you looking at me like that? Could it be that I'm wrong?"

"You."

Gao Hongming gave him a hard look, and finally sighed helplessly: "Old Chi, you are good at everything, but you trust people too easily.

Don't even think about it, who is Spruance, who is John Marston?

One of them is the Vice Admiral Commander of the Fifth Fleet of the U.S. Navy, and the other is the Rear Admiral Commander of the U.S. Marine Corps.

And we, at best, are the leaders of a local armed force. Even I, a major general, proclaimed myself before leaving. Will they deal with the commander of a division for the sake of us little people?

All of this is just for show, the purpose is to impress a fool like you, so that you can work better for them. "

"what?"

Chi Yaohui was taken aback, and hesitated: "No way, I think Major General Spruance's attitude is quite sincere."

"Sincerely, my sister."

Gao Hongming was so angry that he poked his forehead several times, "Who are you, Chi Yaohui? Who am I, Gao Hongming?

If it weren't for the five or six thousand brothers we brought from China under our command, we wouldn't even have the qualifications to meet him. Why should he give us face as a US Navy vice admiral?Is it because of your big face? "

"He and I……"

Chi Yaohui wanted to refute, but didn't know where to start.

Gao Hongming looked at his chief of staff helplessly, and wanted to scold him a few more words, but then he thought about it, isn't the reason why he trusts him so much is because of his excellent professional level, he is more straightforward and won't play tricks?

If it weren't for this, how could he, a high-achieving student who graduated from the Berlin Military Academy, be squeezed out to the point where he could hardly even eat, and had to condescend to his own small temple? Why did he trust him so much?

Isn't it because he doesn't like intrigue with others by nature?

If he was as well-rounded as the old fritters in other units of the national army, how dare he use him with confidence?
He explained patiently: "That Spruance is not a simple character. He can be a fleet commander and command more than [-] naval and army troops. If he doesn't have a little wrist, Roosevelt and Nimitz will How could such an important fleet be handed over to him?

In fact, it is very simple to know his true thoughts. We just need to wait a few more days and see what tasks the Americans send us to understand?
I can bet you that in a few days we will receive another mission to attack Mount Tululu, believe it or not? "
