reborn super empire

Chapter 366: The New Year is approaching and the situation will change

A week is fleeting, but within this week, the international situation is changing. The Far East, which had just stabilized, is once again ignited by the flames of war. It seems that the European continent is about to emerge from the haze of terror.

After experiencing a war initiated by Germany, the European continent gradually began to stabilize with the surrender of Poland.

The Germans finally obtained Poland as they wished, and the Soviet Union, together with Germany, divided up the territory of Poland. In the eyes of the world, this should not have happened. No one would have thought that the Soviets would actually intervene .

And it was the intervention of the Soviet Union this time that made him fall into the tongue of international disputes.

On the other hand, in the Far East, after Europe calmed down, the eyes of the world were once again on Asia. Su Dao drove away the Japanese invaders with thunderous means, which completely disrupted the strategic deployment of the Western powers.

However, the Germans seemed to have a tacit understanding with China. They launched a war almost at the same time to attract their attention. When everyone was unable to care about the Far East, the Japanese army surrendered.

After Poland surrendered, the western powers discovered that Su Dao was no longer the little man he was back then, but now he has the qualifications enough for them to value him.

Germany blitzed Poland, but Su Dao came to the Philippines in the Far East. In just ten days or so, the entire Philippine land basically fell to more than one-third.The Huaxia Expeditionary Force located in the Philippine mainland also has more than 60 people.

With Manila as the center, the north has basically been completely occupied by Su Dao, and many Chinese have taken the opportunity to migrate to the northern Philippines.Trying to seek Su Dao's protection.

With Gumaka in the south as the boundary and the area in the middle of Manila in the north is the area that is being contested.However, according to this trend, the U.S. military cannot compete with the expeditionary force.Hundreds of thousands of fully equipped expeditionary forces, supported by the air force and navy, what will the US military use to confront them?

The U.S. military is retreating steadily, and will soon be driven to the area south of Gumaka, and further south, it is basically dominated by islands, and the land is not deep enough, which is more conducive to the warfare of the expeditionary force.

Under the coercion of the sea, land and air forces, the next battle will be much easier.Of course, the premise is that the United States does not send more troops to the Philippines from its homeland.

Furthermore, so what if there are more troops?Congress has been arguing for nearly ten days, and there is still no result in the debate. Even if there is a result immediately, do they have time to come to China?From the preparation of the troops to everywhere, even if it is the fastest, it will take at least three days, and it will take at least half a month on the road.

When they come to the Philippines.It is estimated that it has all fallen here.In addition, Japan did not know which tendon was broken, and even launched a blockade in the Pacific Ocean, prohibiting the passage of all ships, which undoubtedly increased the support cost of the US military.

Although the Japanese navy is not capable of completely destroying the US Navy.But it's okay to cause trouble for their support fleet.

In this case, is it the loss of the army in the Philippines, or the loss of the navy, including the supporting army and the local Philippine army.became the focus of debate in the U.S. Congress.

Of course, this is just a small episode.Although the U.S. Congress was arguing, President Roosevelt's speech completely drove them to a dead end.Ever since, Congress passed a motion to support the Philippines that day.

The reason why there is still no substantive progress so far is that the problem lies in the Congress. The gentlemen are discussing nervously how to provide support in order to restore the situation as much as possible and avoid their own losses.

On February 1940, 2, before you knew it, another winter passed. This was the most nourishing winter in China. There was no war, no death, and there was only singing and dancing, and the people lived and worked in peace.

And this day is also the beginning of spring, the spring is warm and flowers are blooming, and everything is recovering, which indicates that this winter will leave them forever from today, and what will greet them will be a green land and a country full of vitality.

Two days later, that is, February 2th will be New Year's Eve. In the history of China, this should be the most important festival for people. On New Year's Eve, the whole family usually gathers together, stays up all night to celebrate the new year, and eats a reunion dinner , Drinking auspicious wine, let’s send away the year full of pain and joy together, and look forward to the beauty of the coming year.

The streets of Jinxi are full of Chinese New Year atmosphere, strings of red lanterns are hung everywhere, and there is an endless stream of people buying new year's goods, the crowd is surging, and there is a lot of hawking.It may be their wish to live a stable year. Now that the stable year has finally come, all families are buying new year's goods one after another. There is no other reason, and they want to vent their anger.

And the various merchants are also grinning from ear to ear, the business is getting better every day, and the money they earn is getting more and more every day, and most importantly, they can do business here safely without worrying that someone will come to make trouble .

Inside the Expeditionary Army Headquarters, as before, there were busy people everywhere, and the Chinese New Year seemed to have nothing to do with them.

The signal soldiers took the time to sit and rest on the steps in the yard. They might be used at any time, so they also rested as much as possible, and waited to run and break their legs when they had something to do.

The staff officers were also constantly busy, walking back and forth with telegrams or documents in their hands, or a few staff officers gathered together to discuss some things.

"Sister-in-law, are you here to find the commander?"

At the entrance of the headquarters, the guard looked at the visitor with a smile, and asked questions very diligently.

"I'm looking for the chief of staff, please go in and report."

With a blushing face, Wu Yali shyly told her why she came.

I don't know what's the matter, although Wu Yali is already engaged to Su Dao, theoretically Wu Yali is already Su Dao's person, and it is normal and polite for others to call him sister-in-law, but whenever Wu Yali hears someone calling him sister-in-law, she will There is an inexplicable feeling.

There is joy and excitement, but more shyness.It seemed like an embarrassing thing to do.

"Sister-in-law, you just go in. Anyway, you won't do anything to embarrass us. You always stand at the door every time you come. Why bother?"

The guard smiled wryly and shook his head, still dissuading Wu Yali from going in directly. The two bosses in the headquarters, one is her future husband and the other is her own brother. The first time I came to the headquarters, I always stood outside the door and waited for the notification, and then Su Dao or Wu Zhongguo came out in person.Since their family came here, only Xiao Cheng has entered the headquarters once, and the others are standing at the door and waiting.

"It's better for you to report. There are no rules and no rules. Besides, this is the headquarters, an important military site. I'm not a soldier, so it's not convenient for me to go in."

Wu Yali shook her head and refused.

They all say children from single-parent families.There are many rules that I don't understand well, but this is not the case in Wu Zhong's country. The four children understand the rules very well, only Xiao Cheng is too young.I'm not very sensible yet, I once went directly to the headquarters to look for Wu Zhongguo.

It was also that time, after his mother found out.He gave Xiao Cheng a hard lesson, and from then on.Even Xiao Cheng stood at the entrance of the headquarters and asked to report.

And Wu Zhongguo's mother often taught them that no matter how powerful they are.It's not my own, relatives should have the consciousness of relatives, and we can't always treat ourselves as a special existence, which will implicate others sooner or later.

Because Wu Yali joined the work early and because of her age, she knew all these things, and she didn't need to explain them specially. Although she was very curious, she still stood at the door and waited.

"Xiao Li, why don't you go in?"

Not long after, Wu Zhongguo trotted all the way and stood at the entrance of the headquarters.

"It's nothing serious. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Mom asked me to ask you if you need anything? We'll go to the street and buy them later."

Wu Yali was quite happy to see her elder brother. Wu Yali also felt a little envious of this man who was regarded as a god by others.

"I don't have to buy it. I don't have to worry about food and clothing. I don't need anything. You came just in time. You can buy some clothes with the bonus that was just issued in the morning. You can go to see the dowry or something. In a day or two We're going to get married in a few months, and our natal family can't just give nothing."

Wu Zhongguo took out more than 1000 French currency from his pocket and stuffed it directly to Wu Yali.

"Didn't you just pay the military salary?"

Wu Yali looked at Wu Zhongguo with some doubts. The military salary is paid on the 15th-20th of every month. Today is only the 5th. How can the military salary be paid in the middle?

"Bonuses, everyone has them, it's just a question of how much. That's all right, you hurry back, I have a meeting to attend, so I won't go back for lunch at noon."

Wu Zhongguo laughed, but didn't make it too clear. After giving the money to Wu Yali, he turned around and walked into the headquarters.

Bonuses, also known as year-end bonuses, the soldiers have worked hard for a year. Although there is military pay, most of them are sent to family members or spent by themselves. It will be Chinese New Year soon, and Su Dao will not do it either. He was stingy and gave the soldiers a year-end bonus, but the bonus was not as much as the usual military salary. In fact, this was just a wish.

Su Dao also gave out year-end awards during the Chinese New Year before, but at that time due to financial shortages and other issues, the number of awards was relatively small, and it was also given out together with the military pay years ago, but now the expeditionary force with deep pockets will naturally not I'm short of money.

Wu Zhongguo trotted all the way to the meeting room of the headquarters. Just when the guard informed him, he happened to be going to the meeting room and said a few words to Wu Yali. When he returned to the meeting room, he was coming to the meeting. The people were basically all here, sitting in twos and threes chatting with each other, and Su Dao also had a smile on his face, chatting with the officers below.

Seeing Wu Zhongguo return to the meeting room, everyone stopped. After adjusting their mentality a little, they entered the meeting state.The purpose of this meeting is also very simple. It is nothing more than to make a year-end summary, to put forward the bits and pieces of this year, the places worthy of praise and some places that need to be corrected.

At the same time, list the goals for the coming year. Of course, there will be no detailed plans for this, because it needs to be announced at a meeting in the coming year. I was caught off guard when the time came. (To be continued..)
