Chapter 298: The Japanese army raided the main fleet of the US military?  Compared with the caution of the Sichuan Army's 45th Army, the Yunnan Army's 60th Army was much better. An Enpu has already dealt with the Sichuan Army. Especially after learning that Cun Yunsheng was the nephew of Tengchong Cun family and General Cun Xingqi, the relationship between the two parties heated up sharply. So after receiving Cun Yunsheng's telegram, An Enpu agreed to the other party's request without any hesitation. Because he has felt that some people are dissatisfied with him, and even consciously or unconsciously expressed the hope that he would voluntarily resign as commander of the 60th Army. This made him feel a little chilled. Now that he had been invited by Cun Yunsheng, he would naturally not refuse. As for whether taking away the 60th Army will arouse someone's anger. Then it's none of his business. After all, he was obeying Stilwell's orders.

Moreover, Stilwell was the chief of staff of the China-Burma-India Theater. As for the commander, he is the one from Shancheng. So Stilwell actually did have the authority to command them. As for the so-called Commander-in-Chief of the Southeast Asian Theater, he was Fatty Qiu, the Prime Minister of the British Empire. It's just that at this moment, the British army is worried about the war in Tianzhu, and they don't care about him at all. In other words, what Stilwell really wants to do at this moment is to help the British army solve the problem in Tianzhu. However, because the canal is blocked, the supporting weapons will not be able to reach the Imphal area for a while. So Stilwell is now very idle, so that Du Yuming's 100,000 expeditionary force can only farm on the spot to reduce logistical pressure. Originally, General Wavell considered asking Stilwell to transfer the Sichuan Army to Tianzhu to pursue and intercept the Japanese army. But Stilwell refused because the logistics could not supply more troops. What a joke, the war in the Southeast Peninsula had not yet been resolved at that time. The result? As soon as this was settled, General Wavell sent another telegram urging Stilwell not to forget his responsibilities and to continue to mobilize the Sichuan Army. The result! Before Stilwell could think about it, Cun Yun sent a letter about the plan to establish the Nanyang Task Force, which made him completely shelve Wavell's telegram. If anything, this plan has nothing but the irresistible temptation of the five-star general mentioned. There is also the matter of the selection of the commander of the Southeast Asian theater. Because at this time, the commander of the Southeast Asia Theater was Fatty Qiu, but he was far away in London and could not intervene at all. In other words, everyone's thoughts are on Tianzhu now.

The rest of Southeast Asia has no other concerns. Therefore, this is the best way for Stilwell to seize power and expand American influence in Southeast Asia. As for whether it will arouse the resentment of the British army? That's bound to happen. But is it important? unimportant! Because Luzon was an American colony, Stilwell had every reason to ignore the British Empire's protests. Not only could he be promoted, but he could also expand the influence of the United States. This was the reason why Stilwell finally agreed to Cun Yunsheng's proposal. As for whether these 400,000 troops will expand China's influence? Stilwell was not worried at all, because he believed that Cun Yunsheng was always in his hands, and only by relying on him could he survive happily. Unfortunately, he didn't know that Cun Yunsheng had a bone in the back of his head. As for the Guizhou Army, they are still communicating for the time being. Several divisions of the main Guizhou Army have also been assigned to various battlefields, and there are no troops left behind. The main reason is that the status of the Guizhou Army is too low. That's why this happens. As for the Hunan Army, Bu La wrote letters and contacted some fellow villagers, but because of his humble position, he had no clue for the time being. "It's a good thing we got Zhang Fakui, otherwise, we might be able to get even fewer people." Cun Yunsheng couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the reply telegram. Sure enough, I don't have enough qualifications and prestige. It's really not possible. Although I say that I know everything about Indochina, it is really not enough for these big guys. That is, the 60th Army of the Yunnan Army. Because of his background, he naturally had a good impression, so he agreed easily. "Sir, will we not be able to gather 50,000 people?" Meng Fangliao asked awkwardly. It would be really embarrassing if we didn't get it together. "No, 50,000 people is still no problem, but 400,000 people will be very difficult, and according to Stilwell, I'm afraid 400,000 is just the beginning, not the limit." Cun Yunsheng shook his head and said. Hearing this, Meng Fanglia couldn't help but take a breath. "Hiss, as for that much?" Isn't this too scary? And are the Americans willing to supply these weapons? "Of course, the Southern Army alone has 400,000 Japanese troops. Didn't you hear General Stilwell's introduction? The Japanese army has a million troops in its homeland? Even if we can solve the crisis in Nanyang in advance, I am afraid we will have to solve it for the British army. Tianzhu's troubles, we will have more wars in the future," Cun Yunsheng looked at the map and shook his head. Hearing this, Meng Fanglia finally fell silent. He didn't expect that there was such a complicated side to it.

"There are tens of millions of troops in the European battlefield. We just don't have enough people to fight a local battle." Cun Yunsheng's words made Meng Fangliao have a bitter look on his face. "You have to broaden your horizons so that you can see far. Don't just focus on the one-third of an acre in front of you. This will limit your horizons." "Yes, sir." Meng Fanxiao took a deep breath and nodded. At this time, the communications staff member came in with a telegram and handed it to Cun Yunsheng. "A telegram from Fourth Uncle?" Cun Yunsheng took the telegram and glanced at it. It was a telegram from Fourth Uncle, and he was a little surprised. Because Cun Xingxing had sent him a telegram not long ago, Haikou had been surrounded. He was currently attacking the Japanese troops in the city with the troops dispatched by the Fourth War Zone, and it was expected that Haikou would be captured within two days. Cun Yunsheng was not surprised by this. After all, the Japanese army in Haikou was not that strong, and now the reinforcements had been defeated again. In addition, the Japanese troops stationed in Haikou are still second-line troops, and they are far inferior to the elite Japanese troops in terms of fighting will and combat effectiveness. So Cun Yunsheng, who received the telegram, thought it was a great victory. Who knew that the contents of the telegram had nothing to do with the victory. In other words, he recommended a troop to Cun Yunsheng. "The Twelfth Division of the Yunnan Army? Isn't this General Cun's army?" Meng Fanglia happened to see the contents of the telegram and couldn't help but exclaimed. Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng nodded, as if he remembered something, and remained silent. "Sir, what's going on with this unit now?" Meng Fanglia asked. "If I remember correctly, they should have evacuated there to rest. There are not many people left, probably only a few hundred people." Cun Yunsheng said casually. When the Yunnan Army first started the war of resistance, it was all fully equipped troops. Later, it moved to fight in the north and south, and could not get supplies, so its numbers gradually declined. Even so, during the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, Cun Xingqi's 12th Division had more than 10,000 men. Later, some of them broke through, but not many, and most of them died in the battle. "Sir, do you want to bring them back? It's a long way, so I'm afraid it won't be easy." Meng Fangliao asked worriedly. Cun Yunsheng thought for a while and then said. "Let the military commander in Kunming find a way to take so much money from us. This small amount of work is nothing to them, not to mention that there are only a few hundred people, so there won't be any big problems." Since the fourth uncle personally sent the telegram, Cun Yunsheng would naturally not erase this face. At the same time, it also reminded him that he could dig deeper in the Yunnan Army. After all, the Cun family's influence in the Yunnan Army was not small. Thinking of this, Cun Yunsheng decided to turn around and focus on the Yunnan Army. "Yes." Meng Fan nodded and responded. At this time, someone else came in, indicating that Zhang Fakui and Deng Jinkang were both here. Cun Yunsheng was not surprised by Zhang Fakui's arrival. Because Stilwell requested that the first batch of 50,000 troops be in place within a month, as the commander of the Nanyang Task Force, he must come first. As for Deng Jinkang, he was really surprised. Isn't this too fast?

Is this using military aircraft? Otherwise it would be so fast? Guessing aside, Cun Yunsheng still went to meet these two people in person. We are old acquaintances with Zhang Fakui, and Cun Yunsheng just exchanged simple greetings. As for Deng Jinkang, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Cun Yunsheng naturally saluted with great solemnity. "Military seat." Hearing these words, Deng Jinkang felt relieved a lot. This guy really hasn't forgotten his roots and is affectionate and righteous. "Good boy, you are more famous than me now. You can even invite Commander Zhang to serve as the commander. You are quite capable." Deng Jinkang felt much more relaxed and naturally started to joke. Zhang Fakui, who was standing aside, could not help but wave his hands, indicating that he was just an idler. "Hehe, these are all inseparable from the teachings of the military commander." Cun Yunsheng chuckled and wanted to flatter him, but he saw Deng Jinkang waving his hand. "It has nothing to do with me. You don't need to give me money. In the final analysis, you are the one who deserves the best. What does my little support mean? It's nothing more than a designation that is worse than a defense regiment, and a class of fine equipment." "Everyone says that everything is difficult at the beginning. Without this small support from the army, there would be no Sichuan Army today." Cun Yunsheng said with a smile on his face. "Okay, why don't you invite us in? Let's take a look at your headquarters?" Zhang Fakui spoke at the right time, otherwise these two people would have to continue to be humble. "It was my mistake. Welcome the two officers to come and give guidance." Cun Yunsheng said and led the way. Entering the Governor's Mansion, what you see is a huge world map, many times larger than what Zhang Fakui saw last time, and the signs on it are more detailed. "This world map is much more detailed than the last one." Zhang Fakui couldn't help but sigh. The map last time had opened his eyes. Unexpectedly, this one was more detailed than the last one. Mark in detail how many people are involved in each battle, etc. Deng Jinkang next to him was also dumbfounded. Thinking about the small map I stared at every day, it was incomparable to the map in front of me. "Is this the Pacific battlefield?" Deng Jinkang couldn't help but ask. "Yes, the main forces of Japan and the United States are still in a confrontation, but according to the current news, the US military still has a considerable advantage." Cun Yunsheng explained casually. "Ah? Doesn't the Japanese army have the advantage?" Deng Jinkang asked subconsciously. "Before the Battle of Midway, the Japanese army had the advantage, but now it is no longer the case. The strength of the Japanese army has begun to decline." Cun Yunsheng shook his head and said. Hearing this, Deng Jinkang did not continue to ask, but looked to Europe on the left. "All North Africa is occupied by the German army?" Because the icon is very clear, and the troops of each country are marked with their own flags, Deng Jinkang recognized it at a glance. "Yes, the German army still has a great advantage in Europe at present, especially since they are consolidating their industrial strength recently. I believe it will not be long before they can expand their production capacity." Cun Yunsheng continued to explain.

Hearing this, Deng Jinkang asked curiously. "How do you know so much information? I, the army commander, don't know as much as you." Speaking of which, he, the military commander, didn't know as much information as the other party. At this time, Cun Yunsheng chuckled and said softly. "I know a few foreigners and I happen to have a good relationship with them. I spent some money and bought this information." Hearing this, Deng Jinkang and Zhang Fakui looked suddenly enlightened, and then couldn't help but ask about their confusion. “Can foreigners also be bribed?” It’s really not surprising that they have this idea. After all, they are major powers and have so many weapons and equipment. They shouldn’t have the worldly skills, right? As a result, Cun Yunsheng's words made them feel that their views were somewhat shattered. "It's not called bribery, it's called making friends. I happen to be more generous with my friends, so they are willing to share this news with me." Cun Yunsheng explained seriously. Deng Jinkang and Zhang Fakui really believed it, and they were thinking about giving it a try next time to see if they could get some valuable intelligence, or weapons and equipment, from the Americans. Looking at the expressions of the two people, Cun Yunsheng couldn't help but feel funny, and he actually believed it. This reminded him of a language that was particularly popular, and that was Tianzhu language. Linguistics specially set up to understand the native people of Tianzhu. Because these people’s brain circuits are completely incomprehensible. Just as they always believed that foreigners would not have these worldly feelings. "Is it true that the art equipment for 400,000 people is real?" After looking at the map, Deng Jinkang asked what he was most concerned about. For him, those things were not his turn to worry about. Now he just wanted to find out whether he could get it. To the art equipment. "Of course it's true. General Stilwell is not someone who goes back on his word. An artist's equipment has arrived and is currently being transported to the warehouse. The two officers can check it at any time." Cun Yunsheng knew what he was worried about. , and also guessed the purpose of the other party coming here in person. "General Stilwell is really generous. I asked Shancheng for a thousand rifles and he still bargained with me. It's a turtle son. I'm so angry. I have two divisions, and now only ten thousand people have been beaten. He refused to replenish a thousand rifles, which is really stingy to the extreme." Deng Jinkang couldn't help but complain when he heard the art master. On the other hand, Zhang Fakui had long been used to it and looked unmoved. Just when Cun Yunsheng was about to say something, Meng Fanglia walked in and said with an ugly face. "Sir, something happened. General Stilwell sent a telegram." "What's the matter?" Cun Yunsheng asked subconsciously. "The Japanese army sneak attacked the main fleet of the US military near Guadalcanal. The main fleet of the US military has suffered heavy losses." As soon as Meng Fanley finished speaking, the entire conference room became eerily quiet. (End of chapter)
