blood feud

Major General Suthers was very cautious, and used insinuations on the questions that he wanted to know most urgently. He was worried that the conversation would collapse in three sentences, and it would be very difficult to deal with it later.

So at the end of a question, I suddenly added: "Can I see General Wainwright?"

It seems superfluous, but in fact it contains two meanings: the first meaning is to ask if Wainwright is still alive?The second meaning is to test Chen Jie, will you let him go?

Another concern is that he dare not ask directly: "Is Wainwright still alive?"

If the other party wants to seal the back, just say three words "he's dead!", then no questions can be found out.

If Chen Jie couldn't even understand these meanings, then he was not qualified to command a division to fight, so he despised the other party in his heart: "You talk like a woman, and you don't have the boldness of a soldier at all."

In fact, Chen Jie has always dealt with his brothers, and has always been straightforward, so he didn't understand why Major General Suthers would speak like this as a soldier.Because Chen Jie didn't know that not everyone could be a good chief of staff.

Although the chief of staff cannot make decisions under normal circumstances, his suggestions will affect the military chief.

Therefore, as long as the role of the chief of staff, the words are thoughtful, very smooth, and give people the feeling of yin and yang.

"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, don't worry about that." Chen Jie didn't argue at all, and showed an unpredictable expression, and then smiled slightly: "First tell us all your conditions, and then see if we can Unacceptable. It's too early to get into certain details, don't you think?"

As the chief of staff, it is a compulsory course to study the experience, personality, and handling style of the enemy's military chief.

Major General Suthers also used his own connections to do a lot of homework on the Bai Shujie Group, which once caused troubles in Manchuria, China.

Before coming here, the only conclusion Major General Suthers came to was that none of the main military officers of the Bai Shujie Group had attended a military academy, nor even had the experience of studying.

In the depths of his heart, Major General Suthers had already positioned the Bai Shujie Group as the most common armed group in China—bandits!

Because of this, what he said earlier was very careful.

Because he heard colleagues who came back from China say it more than once: Chinese bandits turn their faces when they say they turn their faces, and they kill people when they say they want to kill people. There is no reason at all.

Especially when Chen Jie came up, he put all the bottom line of his negotiation on the table, which was obviously brave and foolhardy.

This made Major General Suthers strengthen his previous judgment: "These people have never read a book, they are just a bunch of reckless people, and they should be able to hear a lot of useful things from the side."

However, when I asked myself three questions, the other party avoided them very cleverly, and it seemed very natural.Neither bringing the negotiation to a stalemate, nor allowing himself to find out any useful information, Major General Suthers knew that he had met an opponent, and he also had deep doubts deep in his heart.

"Are these people really uneducated? Why do they react so quickly, and talk casually for a moment, and they are so impeccable, like a senior diplomat."

This is all nonsense, Chen Jie is Bai Shujie's third guard, and he has been with a hooligan-like boss for fifteen or six years, and even the best seedlings will fail.

Apart from a belly full of intrigue, there are few good parts.

Otherwise, how could Bai Shujie send Chen Jie to the South Manchurian area to fight alone and play the little devil around?

"Mr. Master, I think we can sit together and have a peaceful conversation today, because we have a common enemy, and that is the Japanese monkey."

Major General Suthers immediately changed his strategy and began to play the sad card: "Mr. must have noticed that Australia is surrounded by water. Although the area is large enough, most of it is barren land, and it is a big desert. The real The strategic maneuvering space is very narrow."

"What I want to say is that the unpleasant incidents that happened before are not because we want to be enemies with your Ministry, but mainly because the Japanese Monkey's Pacific Combined Fleet is pressing down on the border. We hope to find a flexible tactical space. Really, We absolutely have no intention of becoming an enemy of your ministry. Please forgive me for this point."

Chen Jie waved his hand: "Of course you have difficulties, and everyone believes in this. We never intended to be an enemy of your ministry, otherwise we wouldn't be in this state. On this point, please let me know." His Excellency the Chief of Staff believes in our sincerity."

Well, with Chen Jie's two words, he blocked Suthers' sad card again, and returned the exact words.It was Ge Huilan, a Jewish girl, who acted as an interpreter for Chen Jie.

This little girl has been working as an assistant for that old fox in Horst, and she has seen all kinds of scenes.It was the first time for her to cooperate with Chen Jie, she did not expect such a young man to be so difficult.

Deep down in her heart, Ge Huilan was also full of confidence in Chen Jie's pursuit of greater benefits for the Jews.

"That's it, Mr. Commander." Major General Suthers continued to be deflated, and finally got to his main topic: "Australia has a vast land and sparse population, and there is a shortage of soldiers. In order to effectively fight against the Japanese monkey attack, mature veterans are very important to us. .”

"For your department to take the risk of rescuing our prisoners of war based on international humanitarianism, on behalf of the entire Allied Command, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to your department! At the same time, I also hope that your department can send our soldiers back, Let them go back to their positions and fight the Japanese monkeys sooner."

"Also, Yamamoto 56's joint fleet has occupied the Marshall Islands, Guam and Wake Island, posing a huge threat to our supply lines. Therefore, we hope that your ministry can return the battleships of the Sixth Task Force and let them return The home port is repaired and maintained, and we will enter a new round of battle as soon as possible."

Chen Jie nodded: "I believe that if we can reach a relevant agreement, the demands of the Chief of Staff are not too much, but there is one thing I want to make clear."

"Before His Excellency the Chief of Staff came over, because the Third Fleet of Jisaburo Ozawa in the Palau Islands in the north was about to move, the Air Force of the Jewish Republic of Papua borrowed the fighter planes here for emergency. The fighter planes here are used to deal with the little Japanese devils , so the Air Force of the Jewish Republic can be regarded as well-used. I believe that your ministry will not care about it."

"Mr. Commander, I have one more request. I hope that your department can forgive me for my abruptness." After hearing that his soldiers could come back, Major General Suthers finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Although the past is painful, it has become History. However, I heard that two fighter jets of your ministry have already flown at supersonic speeds."

"In order to increase our combat effectiveness against Japanese monkeys, we hope to purchase such fighter jets and bombers. I wonder if your ministry can accommodate you?"

Chen Jie said generously: "I think that as long as it is used to deal with our common enemy, we can discuss anything. However, Your Excellency Chief of Staff, we are also surrounded by water and lack naval power. If we produce Aircraft, there is no ability to produce warships."

"I have an idea. The U.S. has a well-developed shipbuilding industry. We will produce warships of three aircraft carrier formations for us, and we will use our strength to produce fighter planes for you. This is a mutually beneficial matter. I wonder if the Chief of Staff agrees?"

Nodding quickly, Major General Suthers made another old habit and asked a question that was on the sidelines:

"Mr. Master, I think you already know that after the Japanese monkeys occupied the Philippines, the former Philippine government went into exile in the United States. Your ministry not only occupied the Philippine Islands and the Brahman Islands, but also hoped to get the Java Islands and Sumatra Islands. How many people do you have?" ?”

Chen Jie's complexion darkened, and his voice became much lower: "I think that all peace-loving people in the world are one family. Peace-loving people must be the majority of human beings, so we naturally have a lot of people."

"As for the so-called Philippine government-in-exile, they fled when the enemy invaded their homes, abandoned the common people to be ravaged by the enemy, and have committed the crime of dereliction of duty. Only us Chinese and overseas Chinese were killed by tens of thousands of little devils. Such escapees Once you return, you should accept justice!"

"Besides, even if they come back, that's our relationship with them. We naturally have our own attitude on how to deal with it, and it has nothing to do with your army. We don't want these extra small details to affect to the relationship between our two armies."

Major General Suthers did not continue to entangle on this issue, because his goal has been achieved: "The other party has already stated its position, and there is no room for negotiation on this issue. In other words, the Philippines no longer exists, and it should be called the Lanfang Republic in the future. .”

Next came some details. Major General Suthers sent a telegram with the results of his negotiations and his personal analysis to report to the two officers.

protest!

Someone who wants to protest against Major General Suthers for betraying Australia's interests is the new Australian Prime Minister Curtin.

"Mr. Prime Minister, please pay attention to your words." Admiral MacArthur must not allow outsiders to slander his right-hand man: "The reality now is that your army is empty. The Eighth Division was captured by the Japanese on Java Island. The Sixth Division was captured at Darwin, and the Seventh Division was also captured."

"Tell me, what should we do now? Do we want people or land? Of course, this is a dilemma, and it's not easy to deal with anyone. Charlie has already argued hard, but our people are in the hands of others. .Also, they are just renting it out, and it is to defeat the Japanese monkeys."

"The most urgent task now is to quickly integrate the troops and send all the Japanese monkeys to the bottom of the sea. By then, we will naturally have plenty of time to go back and deal with the issue of land ownership."

To be a slave is to have the consciousness of being a slave. Admiral MacArthur's threatening words made Prime Minister Curtin feel like a deflated ball.

"The terms and conditions discussed are all approved. The basic principle is to return equipment and personnel as soon as possible. According to the reconnaissance, the Japanese monkeys in the Solomon Islands seem to have noticed that there have been six more reconnaissance planes in the last two days. Don't go into too much detail. Entanglement, all in the bigger picture. Allied Commander: Admiral MacArthur."

After all, what happens next, let's see the breakdown in the next chapter.
