Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 1,156 The Americans have changed their tactics

By the morning of August 20, there was no movement at all in the direction of Burma. No news came from the American intelligence network in Indochina or Colonel Whitney, the Allied field supervisor sent to Burma.

This means that the ** Division troops did not take any military action at all...

MacArthur finally understood that the Chinese people ignored his order to suppress it. He said that he refused to carry out the order. There was also a refusal, but Tang Qiuli simply acted as if nothing had happened.

, a big stone that MacArthur thought was very important, did not stir up any waves.

MacArthur was furious. He banged the table in the magnificent headquarters and shouted, "This is a blatant disregard for the Allied headquarters. This is a blatant disobedience to military orders. I want to report to the Allied forces in China and Southeast Asia theaters."

Commander-in-chief Jiang, accuse this behavior and severely punish Tang Qiuli in accordance with relevant military laws!" Why do these words sound so familiar?

Stilwell could tell that this was the same as when Alexander issued an order to Tang Qiuli, but it ended in such a fruitless manner. After that, the British man also let go of similar harsh words. He silently listened to the furious MacArthur, who was talking nonsense.

, In fact, Stilwell also roughly expected this result. However, he and MacArthur, who was extremely angry, were not on the same page, so there was no further reminder.

Talking too much aroused the resentment of his immediate superiors. Like Stilwell, there were also a large group of senior US military officers in the war room, looking at their commander-in-chief, whose face was livid with anger. According to MacArthur's temper, he was really

I wanted to get on a plane and fly to Myanmar, and shoot that hateful Chinese Tang Qiuli in the head, so as to vent the evil spirit in my heart.

For many years in Southeast Asia, MacArthur had never suffered such an insult, especially from the Chinese who he despised. The insult brought to him was intolerable. The table was slapped and his temper was lost. But the problem must be solved eventually. The U.S. military

The Southeast Asia and South Pacific regional headquarters is too far away from Myanmar. Otherwise, MacArthur would definitely knock on the door and find Tang Qiuli to investigate.

"Generals, what do you think of the behavior of that hateful Chinese Tang Qiuli? Is there any appropriate way to solve this problem?" MacArthur asked. More than a dozen American generals looked at each other, if it were not for the commander-in-chief.

The allied theater commanders did not even know that there was Chinese Tang Qiuli's troops in Indochina.

Burma was a remote and poor place. None of them had ever been there. MacArthur asked these people, which was at the back of his head. Looking at these shining generals, each one was silent. MacArthur felt a little nervous.

Frustrated, he turned his attention to Stilwell. Among these people, only this Texan boy whom he didn't like had ever dealt with Tang Qiuli. Moreover, Stilwell was also the chief of staff of the Allied Forces China and Southeast Asia Theater.

.

Tang Qiuli slapped himself hard. You, Stilwell, wanted to hide aside and watch the fun. You are so beautiful! MacArthur asked: "General Stilwell, you should know this Chinese Tang Qiuli. According to your

Opinion, how should we handle this matter, I need to remind you that the general is still the chief of staff of the theater, and this is also your scope of responsibility!"

Stilwell smiled bitterly. It seems that he can't escape. Is there any good way? You, MacArthur, just want the Chinese and Japanese to hurt both sides so that you can reap the benefits of the others. You can use such a strategy, that Tang Qiuli?

Your conspiracy can be seen through. The best way is for the United States to send troops to the Indochina Peninsula and form a pincer attack with the Chinese on the Japanese army. Only then can the potential threat from the Japanese be solved once and for all.

But Stilwell could not say any of these words. He was silent for a while and said: "General, my opinion is very simple. We need to sit down and have a face-to-face talk with Tang Qiuli to see what the Chinese need and find out what they need."

What we have in common is not to issue orders thousands of kilometers apart. From what I know about Tang Qiuli, he is a very proud man and the most powerful person in the Republic of China at present, our Commander-in-Chief Chiang.

There is no way to restrict any of his actions..."

This statement is very straightforward. It means that MacArthur's approach is very unsafe. It also indirectly tells MacArthur not to stay behind closed doors in Mani and be the boss who feels good about himself. Even their boss, Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, dare not touch him.

Tang Qiuli's Ni Lin, not to mention you

As an American, Stilwell also risked his life. Anyway, he was not favored by this arrogant boss in the US military headquarters. He said good things and bad things all the same. Being able to return to the country for this would satisfy his own wishes. It would be better than today.

Emperor Gao was far away and suffered from cowardice.

There was a burst of anger on MacArthur's face, and he suppressed it, swallowing a fire in his stomach. What Stilwell said was very unpleasant, but it was not unreasonable at all. The British ate it in Tang Qiuli's hands.

Secretly, he knew something about it. He could get the Chinese to send troops to fight with the Japanese. So what if he lowered his stature?

At this time, MacArthur's political nature prevailed. He even thought that as long as Tang Qiuli took action against the Japanese, he might as well give the weapons and equipment given to Chairman Chiang to Tang Qiuli. As long as the United States did not send troops to fight with Japan

In a confrontation between people, MacArthur can make appropriate concessions. As for Tang Qiuli's insult to him, he will never forget it. As long as there is a chance, he will definitely get it back. Other book friends are reading:.

MacArthur rolled his gray-blue eyes and said: "This proposal is very good. After all, it involves a large-scale military operation. We need to sit down and have a good talk with the Chinese. General Stilwell, it is your turn to use the Allied Forces in China and Southeast Asia."

Powers of the Theater Chief of Staff

It's time to convene the highest military meeting of the Allied theater in Mani before the end of August. All senior officers of the Allied forces above the major general level must participate. Of course, Tang Qiuli must attend. This matter,

Just leave it to the Chief of Staff, adjourn the meeting!"

After MacArthur finished speaking, he twisted his plump body and left without looking back. The officers also dispersed in a hurry, leaving only Stilwell with his eyes straight, swallowing and spitting. There is no doubt that this is a man.

It's a very difficult job. This military meeting, to put it bluntly, is

Convened for Tang Qiuli, MacArthur's purpose was to use this military conference to pressure Tang Qiuli to go to war with the Japanese army in Burma. Moreover, it was within the American sphere of influence, and MacArthur took advantage of the home field to engage in some conspiracies.

The trick is also handy.

But the crux of the matter is, can Tang Qiuli see through MacArthur's intentions? If so, would he still travel thousands of kilometers to Mani and be willing to be persecuted? If Tang Qiuli couldn't come, even if he summoned thousands of

What's the point of having people at the meeting? Stillwell was almost depressed. He crossed his hands and put them in his hair, leaning his head against the table, almost roaring with depression.

He stayed in the US military headquarters until dark. The lights in the yard cast mottled tree shadows on the wall of the conference room. It was not until the young officer on duty poked his head into the conference room and looked into the conference room countless times that Stilwell became filled with worry.

Jie left and continued to think hard about how to get Tang Qiuli to come to Mani and participate in this bullshit military meeting.

Stilwell was almost heartbroken with worry, and MacArthur couldn't sleep anymore. He had been thinking about a problem. How could there be no news from his confidant, Field Supervisor Whitney, who was sent to Burma and Tang Qiuli's army?

No news at all? What unexpected thing happened in Myanmar?

Colonel Whitney, who was missed by General MacArthur, could not reach Myitkyina at all. Tang Qiuli's headquarters, Whitney and a group of six people took a US military plane from Mani and landed at Kunming Airport to come.

The Americans were greeted by Colonel Shen Jun, the director of the Investigation Division of the Army. Other book friends were reading:.

Shen Jun made a special trip to Kunming to pick up the Americans according to the instructions of the division commander Tang Qiuli. This was also due to a telegram from MacArthur, "Allied field supervisor Colonel Whitney and a group of six people will be sent to the Burma War to supervise the war."

Chinese ** team vs. Japanese army

"All combat processes," and also specifically stated, "Colonel Whitney, while in Burma, will exercise authority on his own behalf. In other words, Whitney is Commander MacArthur's imperial envoy, so he lacks the power to kill first and then report later."

.”

After reading the telegram sent by Chen Feng, Tang Qiuli simply said four words, "It's ridiculous," and then said to Chen Feng: "Order Shen Jun to go to Kunming to pick up these Americans and get them

Lock them up in a secluded place and cut off all contact with the outside world, but do it smartly so that you don't bother to talk to them and affect your mood!"

When Whitney and his party got off the military plane, they saw the people who came to greet them. It was not what they imagined. It was a lively scene of huge crowds of people. There was no intention of Chinese officers lining up to welcome them. It was just a young Chinese colonel officer. At that time, he felt very unhappy.

, he represents the boss of MacArthur, and all the squadrons are under his supervision. After following MacArthur for a long time, Whitney has also learned the arrogance of his boss and his contempt for the Chinese.

Shen Jun stepped forward and said politely: "Your Excellency, Colonel, on behalf of General Tang Qiuli, commander of the ** Division, I am here to welcome you to the Burma theater to supervise operations." Whitney rolled her light blue eyes and stared at

Shen Jun was waiting for Shen Jun to salute him first. Shen Jun smiled and gave Whitney a standard military salute. Then, he turned aside and said, "Please get in the car!"

However, Whitney was immersed in the joy of having the upper hand in the first game. He thought that he should give the Chinese a showdown first, win a round first, and the military ranks were equal. The Chinese would salute him first, but he did not see that Shen

There was a fleeting hint of irony in Jun's smile.

Three military jeeps, escorted by four trucks full of soldiers, quickly drove out of Kunming towards the Yunnan-Myanmar border. Colonel Whitney, who was smug because he had the upper hand, knew that this was not a secret mission at all.

The direction of China is on the way to Tengchong, a small town in western Yunnan.
