mixed in the war

He Zhonghan was also engaged in intelligence before.Moreover, being able to thrive under Lao Jiang and become the leader of Huangpu students for a time is not something ordinary smart people can do.You know, when He Zhonghan was at his best, even Hu Zongnan, Chen Cheng and the others would give in to him. As for Dai Li... At that time, how many people knew who this Dai was?

Therefore, as soon as He Yingqin spoke, He Zhonghan knew what this "Grandma He" was planning.

Although he has been away from the center for several years, He Zhonghan still has channels to learn about the high-level information of the national government.Qin Wei, that is Lao Jiang's most trusted person now. In terms of personal influence alone, this young man may be higher than He Yingqin and others.It's just that this person is also very smart, although he has a high status, he never wants power; he will never take the initiative to provoke others unless others come to provoke him; People don't build relationships, and they never take the initiative to cultivate their own power.Even the New 1st Army, known as "Qin Wei's direct line" according to the rumors, is nothing more than a joke in the eyes of many people... Whose direct line troops are all other people's people?Not to mention Sun Liren, the commander of the army, two of the three division commanders below are Lao Jiang's people, and they are also confidantes.

Therefore, Qin Wei is an "empty box".Only by relying entirely on the authority of Lao Jiang can we have today's scenery.But at the same time, Qin Wei has abilities, and it is precisely because of these abilities that Lao Jiang will trust him more.

But in He Zhonghan's view, Qin Wei is much smarter than himself.

Hugging Lao Jiang's thigh tightly, not greedy for power, not seeking power, it is said that he is still dealing with the prince, and the means of dealing with him are extremely clever.He doesn't directly make friends with the prince, but keeps contributing to his "progress".Today, the prince is already the director of the Civil Affairs Department of Yunnan Province, and has done some business in Yunnan.Coupled with the popularity accumulated during his tenure as the Director of the Independent Commission Against Corruption.Now the name of the crown prince is stronger than Lao Jiang in Yunnan.According to reports, Lao Jiang was also very happy about this. Although he still refused to give the prince a lot of face, he was very happy in private...

Of course, this has nothing to do with He Zhonghan.At least for now it seems so.But He Zhonghan knew that the task He Yingqin gave him was actually to reply to his previous "request", and the meaning was very clear: If you want Lao Jiang to change his previous decision and let him go, then go to Qin Wei ……at present.Only Qin Wei could help him, and if Qin Wei was really willing to say a few good words for him, Old Jiang wouldn't want to lose face.

But why did the foreign devil, Stilwell, get involved in the process?

He Zhonghan was very puzzled by this.However, this did not prevent him from trying every means to lure Stilwell to Guilin.It really wasn't a problem for him.However, something went wrong when he and Stilwell arrived in Guilin.Because Qin Wei was on vacation and went fishing by the Lijiang River...

……

"Vacation? At this time, a commander of a theater is still on vacation?"

After Stilwell listened to the answer from Wu Shi who came to receive him.Countless disbelief immediately piled up on his face.And anger... I went from Kunming to Chongqing, and then from Chongqing to Guilin for the sake of the war situation in Southeast Asia, but now the master went fishing leisurely.How can this embarrass him?

"General Stilwell, the Battle of Guangdong is coming to an end. With the large-scale evacuation of Japanese troops from western Guangdong, we have actually won the entire battle and recovered most of the territory of Guangdong. Deputy Commander Qin for this battle , It took a lot of effort, so after the battle situation was settled, I went to rest. I don't think this is a problem?" Wu Shi was a little dissatisfied with Stilwell's attitude, but he still made an explanation.

"But I want to find him!" Stilwell shouted, "I have something very important to do with him. So, General Wu, I hope you will call General Qin immediately. I want to see him!"

"..." Wu Shi didn't speak, but just looked at Stilwell in a daze, with a surprised and puzzled expression on his expression.

"General Wu!?" Stilwell frowned uncomfortably, and called out again.

"That... General Stilwell, if you want to see Commander Qin, you'd better go find it yourself." Wu Shi looked worried, "Of course, if you feel that you don't know the place you're born in, I can send someone to take you there. But Let Chief Qin come to see you... that won't work."

"Why?" Stilwell asked dissatisfied.

"Because you are only a lieutenant general, and Chief Qin is a first-class general in the Republic of China. According to the principle of equivalence of military ranks prevailing in the world, Chief Qin's military rank is equivalent to a four-star general in your country... So, you are not qualified Let Chief Qin come to see you!" Wu Shi said solemnly, "And I also believe that among the nobles, no one has the qualifications to let Chief Qin take the initiative to meet him!"

"..."

"Is it too early to launch an attack on Myanmar at this time?"

Manila, Philippines.

Seishiro Sakagaki looked at the newly released plan before him, and it took him a long time to resist the urge to beat someone... He had already received the news that his friend Ishihara Kanji was sent to the hospital by Hideki Tojo in anger.When he first heard the news, he almost thought of flying back to Tokyo and slashing the private first class.Because he knew that this was Hideki Tojo's revenge, revenge for Ishihara Kanji's disrespect over the years.That's right, Ishihara Kanji did something wrong at the beginning. Hideki Tojo didn't take the initiative to provoke him, but because he couldn't get used to it, because he was arrogant and felt that he was capable but was not valued as he should be. Hideki Jojo didn't have much talent but he was able to rise to the top, so Ishihara Wanji satirized Hideki Tojo in his words...but it's wartime now.Knowing that Ishihara Waner is the most lacking strategic talent in Japan at present, but at this time, crossing the river and demolishing bridges, what is this?

It's a pity that in Nanyang, although Seishiro Sakagaki has a heart, he still has to temporarily put aside his concern for his friends and focus on the current war. At the same time, he reluctantly accepted the latest instructions from Tokyo.However, what he didn't expect was that in Tokyo, Hideki Tojo crossed the river and demolished the bridge, which made Ishihara Wanji angry, and in Manila, there was also Shouichi Terauchi, a salty fish who turned over and came to trouble him:

"According to the plan agreed upon before our base camp, we should wait for the end of the Malayan campaign first, and then attack Burma after capturing Singapore and the entire territory of Indonesia..."

"The British are trying to recruit more troops from India." Terauchi Shouichi has long since lost his previous cautious appearance. As the commander-in-chief of the Southern Army and the Earl of the Great Japanese Empire, he led the troops to create one victory after another. At this time, he can be said to be very high-spirited: "And I also got news from the imperial intelligence department that the Americans are also trying to drag the Chinese into Burma. The chief of staff of the so-called Pan-Western Pacific Theater they sent Joseph Smith Diwei has also arrived in Chongqing and is lobbying against Chiang Kai-shek... Mr. Sakagaki, you should understand that the Chinese are very cunning. Although we also have corresponding means, what kind of means our opponent will use this time remains to be seen. It is unknown. So. We can only enter Burma as soon as possible, because only then will our chances of winning be greater."

"There is an old Chinese saying, 'When a lion fights a rabbit, it must do its best'!" Seishiro Sakagaki looked at Juichi Terauchi with a sneer. "Now that we know the methods of the Chinese, Mr. Temple, we should be more cautious. Only by concentrating all the main forces of the Southern Army can we ensure our victory with a greater probability."

"The Chinese have innumerable human resources." Terauchi Shouyi said, "Since the Americans want them to fight, they will definitely provide enough equipment and supplies. If we can't take Burma in the first place, we will block the last Chinese On the external line of communication, we will not only face countless enemies, but also countless enemies equipped with American weapons. The first battle in Shanxi. The obtained equipment makes Yoshio Shinozuka almost powerless to fight back, which is a lesson from the past."

"In the final analysis, you just feel that the current situation is very favorable, so you can't wait to launch an attack on Burma. It would be best to defeat the Chinese who may come to invade. And then conquer Yunnan...isn't it?" Seishiro Sakagaki shouted.

"Sakagaki-kun, this is just a very normal thought." Terauchi Shouichi looked very serious, "I know what you want to say, I just want to say that I won a few battles with great difficulty and started to become arrogant again. But The current situation is indeed extremely beneficial to us. It even reminds me of the situation when I was in North China. At that time, the Chinese were like the United Kingdom now... Back then, you could use half a division to sweep away more than [-] divisions Enemy, then, our military strength today is stronger than that of the British, and our combat effectiveness is far superior to theirs. Why don't we attack? Could it be that the well-known 'Sakagaki Brave' has become smaller after so many years of fighting? ?”

"You don't have to attack me." Seishiro Sakagaki snorted coldly, "I will never agree with your aggressiveness! It seems to be invincible, but it actually adds more burdens to yourself, which is harmful to the entire battle situation. This It is enough to do this kind of thing once, and if we do it a second time, we can only be called fools!"

"A fool is a fool. As long as he can keep winning one victory after another for the empire, so what if he is a fool?" Terauchi Shou said, "And the formation of the 'Burmese Front Army' has also begun, and the headquarters has agreed to appoint Kawabe Shozo As the commander-in-chief, he has jurisdiction over the No.15 Army, No.20 First Army, No.20 Eighth Army, No.30 Third Army, and the 2nd and 49th divisions, as well as the 5th Flying Division and the newly formed Konoe Flying Battalion... Sakagaki-kun, we are on the verge of breaking out now!"

"Is the arrow on the string?" Seishiro Sakagaki's expression became much more desolate.He knew that Terauchi Shouichi would not change his mind, and he probably wouldn't dare to change his mind either.Because this is not only the will of the base camp, but also the will of the division chiefs and even ordinary soldiers below. Shouichi Terauchi's ability cannot suppress so many people.Moreover, four armies and two divisions, this is more than two-thirds of the strength of the Southern Army, and it also shows that the base camp and Terauchi Shou attached great importance to the First World War in Burma.You know, on the Chinese battlefield, they directly suppressed multiple theaters in China with nearly a million troops only with the 11th Army in Wuhan.Facing Myanmar, and even the Chinese after that, the chances of victory should be assured.However, the recognition of Ishihara Waner's ability for many years made him feel uneasy... Chinese people should have the strength to resist such a powerful attack, or not?have?No? ... (To be continued..)
