Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 1325 MacArthur overplayed

China and Japan fought for two days and two nights in the air and on the sea. The consequences of the Japanese defeat made General MacArthur, the commander-in-chief of the United States in Southeast Asia and the South Pacific, even more distressed than Prince Zain, the chief of staff of the Japanese base camp.

MacArthur must face the pressure from both Tang Qiuli and the Japanese. He is not stupid. Tang Qiuli will not forget the tricks he did secretly to prevent the Japanese fleet from passing the Strait of Malacca and provide intelligence to the Japanese. That Chinese

He had already learned a lot about his personality when he was in Manila.

The Japanese were beaten to a bloody head by Tang Qiuli. They would definitely blame themselves for not fulfilling their obligations in accordance with the requirements of the Japan-US Secret Military Mutual Assistance Treaty and not taking action against the Japanese division's fleet. If the Japanese won the battle, this would

Everything is easy to say, and the Japanese have no reason to vent their anger. Is it too late to celebrate?

But now, the Japanese were defeated and would definitely become angry. MacArthur was afraid of the Emperor and their people from the bottom of his heart. However, if the Japanese defeated Tang Qiuli, it would not be appropriate for him to rely on the Chinese.

The original intention was to get rid of the Japanese who were the biggest threat, and it would be best to hurt both sides, but no such good thing happened!

MacArthur went crazy because of the rare opportunity. He didn't know that Zai Ren had already listed Americans as the most untrustworthy people to stir up trouble in front of the emperor. Otherwise, this American four-star general might be thinking of committing suicide.

It happens all the time. No one can stand such stimulation. He shoots himself in the foot. Not only his feet, but also his head.

Stilwell looked at MacArthur with a bitter look on his face, shook his head sympathetically, and said slowly: "Your Excellency, Commander, I personally think that the most urgent problem that needs to be solved at the moment is that we must establish a relationship between Tang Qiuli and the Japanese.

, choose one as a reliable ally, otherwise our presence in Southeast Asia and the South Pacific will be suppressed by both sides."

MacArthur was also worried about this. He had always been good at dancing. He was able to maneuver between Tang Qiuli and the Japanese. He sold well on both ends and suffered no losses on both ends.

, nothing has been done solidly. If you can gain the trust of the other party and take the initiative to show your kindness, will it be considered as another conspiracy?

Stilwell saw MacArthur's concerns and felt helpless for a while. He didn't know how to describe his immediate boss. What he did was so unfair, so he said bluntly: "Commander, I personally think.

We should choose the Chinese Tang Qiuli as our ally. First, there is an alliance and mutual assistance treaty. Second, in my personal opinion, Tang Qiuli is much easier to deal with than the Japanese!"

There is another reason that Stilwell did not say. If Tang Qiuli, who once formed an alliance with the Japanese and took advantage of the power of victory, attacked the Americans, he would never be polite and would even be more ruthless than the Japanese. He was not

Fool, when there is an alliance between two opponents, they will definitely defeat each other. The Japanese are newly defeated and hide aside to bandage their wounds and recover. When the Americans are attacked by Tang Qiuli, the Japanese will never do that.

I don't have the ability to lend a helping hand.

Tang Qiuli was strong, but there were still possibilities and channels for dialogue. In Chinese words, it was "the lesser of two evils." MacArthur strongly agreed with Stilwell's suggestion. In fact, there was no other way.

He looked at each other for a while, then said to Stilwell: "Chief of Staff, regarding the matter of repairing the relationship with Tang Qiuli, you still need to come forward. After all, you have dealt with each other many times and have a basis for conversation."

Stilwell was speechless and sweating profusely. The reason why he repeatedly stressed his personal opinions was because he was afraid that this hot potato would be thrown into his hands, but he still didn't hide away. This is really evil. You, MacArthur, are in a mess.

Is there any justice for you to ask me to clean up the dirty things you did?

What do you say when you meet Tang Qiuli? Explain, is this Chinese so easy to fool and get rid of? If it's your own fault, even for the bad things MacArthur did, you have to punish him a little to make you grow longer.

To remember, Stilwell had the intention to refuse and not take this crappy job, but when he saw MacArthur's face, which was as wet as a rag, looking at him expectantly, his heart softened and he nodded in agreement.

However, he had to draw a bottom line, "Your Majesty Commander, what is the bottom line in our negotiations with Tang Qiuli?" MacArthur thought for a while and replied simply: "As long as we can repair the relationship with Tang Qiuli, we will be harmed.

When the Japanese attack, he can send troops to assist, and you can control the bottom line by yourself, and the headquarters will not interfere at all."

Stilwell understood that MacArthur was betting on himself and had control over his own bottom line, which meant that he had no bottom line. He would kowtow and admit his mistakes, call his grandfather to beg for mercy with a smile on his face, and endure the cynicism, ridicule and ridicule of the Chinese. As long as he could bring Tang Qiuli to

Once you feel comfortable, when the Japanese call, you can lend a hand and let Stilwell do whatever you want.

Thinking of this, Stilwell became upset for a while, as disgusting as eating a fly. MacArthur was really nothing. His old face was valuable. He wanted face, but he couldn't let go of his arrogance, so he risked his face to stick to the Chinese people's cold ass.

, how can I talk about having such an immediate boss? What is this thing?

Tang Qiuli looked at the telegram sent by the fleet with a sad look on his face. He had already expected that the time difference exploited by the Japanese commander would cause losses to the fleet, but he did not expect that the losses to the fleet would be so great.

Only six warships were slightly damaged, which did not matter to the overall situation. However, in an air battle, a carrier-based aircraft flight group was wiped out, which still surprised him very much.

Moreover, as many as fifty-eight pilots were killed, which made Tang Qiuli tremble with heartache. He understood how Brother Qiuquan was feeling now. The Japanese division fleet set out from the Zhanjiang base and never fought against the Japanese fleet once. The carrier-based

More than half of the opportunity was lost, which was Brother Qiuquan's hard work for more than three years. At this moment, Brother Qiuquan's mood, Tang Qiuli sighed, he didn't know how to comfort Tang Qiuquan like this.

The loss of the fleet diluted his inner joy of capturing the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet. "The fleet's carrier-based aircraft are severely damaged," Tang Qiuli said to Tang Qiusheng. Tang Qiusheng also had a solemn look on his face, but he

He didn't say anything, knowing that his brother had something to say.

"Brother Qiu Sheng, I am planning to mobilize pilots from Liu Cuigang's Northern Flying Group into an organic group and train them at the Qingdao Naval Base to replenish the fleet as soon as possible. We also have three newly captured aircraft carriers and we also need carrier-based aircraft pilots. Fortunately,

, Now in the northern region, the Kwantung Army Air Force is suppressed by Liu Cuigang, and the pressure from the north is not great, otherwise, it would be really difficult now."

Tang Qiusheng nodded and said: "The Le Yiqin fleet has a heavy air combat mission and it is not suitable to deploy pilots. At present, there is no major war in the northern region. Deputy Commander Liu is on the ground, crushing the Kwantung Army to death. In the sky, Liu Cuigang is also

Having the upper hand, I checked the war situation report and found out that the fighter jets of the Northern Flying Group can penetrate deep into the airspace around Fengtian."

"The Kwantung Army's fighter jets did not even dare to cross the front line of Liaozhong. This was also due to the main energy of the Kwantung Army. The front line of the Outer Xing'an Mountains was restrained by the Soviets and could not escape. However, they were mobilized from Le Yiqin and Liu Cuigang.

Pilots are not a long-term solution. I think this is the case. I order the aviation department of Dingbian Military Academy to train this year's trainees in the direction of carrier-based aircraft pilots. The Guangzhou branch should also train in this direction, and the problem can be solved.

"

Tang Qiuli nodded repeatedly and said politely: "Brother Qiu Sheng, you are sincere, this plan is very good, just do it, Xinlan, record the order," but saw Liu Xinlan hesitated, and said in confusion: "Xinlan

Lan, what's the matter?"

Liu Xinlan took a telegram and said: "Commander, this is a private telegram from Commander Tang of the Fleet. I received it two hours ago. I was afraid of interfering with your command, so I suppressed it temporarily," Liu Xinlan finished.

, lowered his head, not daring to look at him. Tang Qiuli felt nervous and secretly suspected, "Why did Brother Qiuquan use a private telegram? What else could interfere with my command? Could it be that something unexpected happened?"

matter?"

I received the telegram, which was not long. "Xiaoqiu, during the air battle just now, Yunfei led the first regiment of carrier-based aircraft to fight against the Japanese Seventh Air Force. The plane was shot down over the sea off Bangkok. Yunfei's whereabouts are unknown after parachuting.

Commander Ma Chaoyang of the Southeast Mobile Corps sent a boat to search for him, but so far he has not been found. It is estimated that he is unlikely to survive. You should be mentally prepared in advance, Qiuquan."

Tang Qiuli saw stars in front of his eyes, his ears were buzzing, and his chest seemed to be blocked by a huge stone, making him unable to breathe. The relationship between him and Yun Fei, apart from the blood relationship, also contained other emotions.

How could he bear this incident? His body shook a few times and his face turned pale. Seeing this, Liu Xinlan hurriedly came over to help her. She had heard Tang Qiuli talk about his relationship with Tang Yunfei, so she sent this telegram.

After the battle was over, he didn't expect that Tang Qiuli would react so strongly.

Tang Qiusheng received the telegram with a sad expression on his face, and his heart suddenly ached. When it comes to his love for Yunfei, he is no less fond of it than Tang Qiuli. Among the third-generation descendants of the Tang family, Yunfei's performance is the most outstanding.

But everything can't be messed up. Maybe Yunfei still has a chance to survive?

Tang Qiuli controlled his emotions, slowly pushed away Liu Xinlan's support, and growled through gritted teeth: "If something happens to Yun Fei, I will bury him with 200,000 Japanese soldiers in Yangon City!"

After finishing speaking, he said to Liu Xinlan: "Xinlan, order Le Yiqin to rush to the Yangdong frontline headquarters immediately after landing in Myitkyina. I want to arrange the air raid on Okinawa in person. The Japanese Seventh Air Force

, there is no need to exist anymore.”

Murderous aura, soaring to the sky, Liu Xinlan, who was closest to Tang Qiuli, couldn't help but tremble. It was obvious that Tang Qiuli's deep-seated hatred in her heart at this moment could no longer be suppressed.
