Chapter 151 I have to guard against it!
The end of the arrest operation that had been noisy for nearly a night really made many people in the city feel uneasy. can see the confessions that have been interrogated one after another, and Dai Li, who is in charge of confidentiality work, does feel like he has been slapped in the face.
Just as Hu Biao said, the secrecy work done by the military commanders for this meeting is full of loopholes. In addition to the leakage of secrets within the military command, along with the representatives of the officers stationed in the mansion, there are hidden agents who collect intelligence for the puppet government.
The generals who came to participate in the meeting also said angrily when they saw the situation reported by the liaison officer: "How did you do this secrecy work?" Even the mansion has been infiltrated, how can it be expected to be kept secret? ”
On the contrary, Hu Biao, who is the deputy commander-in-chief, said very calmly: "It's not a good thing to find out these big rats." If you don't feel at ease, I can arrange for you to live in the air force barracks now! ”
"Brother Hu, isn't this appropriate?"
"Nothing! All the negotiators on their side are also here, and our side is about the same, so it doesn't matter if the meeting process starts in advance. In negotiations, there is always time to bargain, right? ”
Hearing Hu Biao say this, Wei Junru, as the commander-in-chief, thought for a while and said: "Okay, then listen to Brother Hu, and wait for the delegation to move in." There are all foreigners over there, even if the little devils want to get in, I'm afraid it's not easy! ”
For this kind of talk, Hu Biao just smiled and didn't speak. The generals who participated in the talks arrived at the air base of the Menia Air Force in Spring City by car, and were also welcomed by the generals who met with them.
Just as the meeting was about to end, Hu Biao said with a smile: "General Dennis, your adjutant Colonel Kubi should also be here for this meeting, right?" I wonder if the general can introduce me before the meeting? ”
As a negotiator in England, Dennis was not familiar with Hu Biao. But he knew that compared to Wei Junru sent by the Nationalist Government, the one who could really make up his mind was the young lieutenant general, division commander and deputy commander-in-chief in front of him.
Without knowing why, he still said: "General Hu knows my adjutant?" ”
"I don't know each other! It's just that there are some things that need to be consulted with him in person! ”
When Dennis called the adjutant over, Colonel Kubi also looked confused and said, "General, do you have anything to do with me?" ”
At this moment, Hu Biao snapped his fingers, and Nuvik, who was standing next to Lieutenant General Pique, suddenly pulled out his gun and said, "Colonel Kubi, I'm sorry!" Hand over your pistol! It's all generals here, don't have any accidents! ”
"Vic, what are you doing?"
"General Dennis, I'm saving you! Do you understand? Colonel Kuby, do you know why I did this? ”
"I don't know! Mr. Vic, is this a misunderstanding? ”
"Misunderstanding? So I'd like to ask Colonel Kuby, the ten gold bars you received a week ago shouldn't have been exchanged, right? Also, in the room you rented in Dagon City, the woman introduced to you by others should make you enjoy it very much, right? ”
As soon as these words came out, Colonel Kuby's face turned pale instantly, and on the other hand, Lieutenant General Dennis, who was very angry before, also said with a look of disbelief: "Kubi, you were actually bought?" Damn, you're a shame to the Imperial soldiers! ”
Only Hu Biao said calmly: "General Dennis, you should know that this four-party meeting is more to save your country's colonies and ensure our country's southwest international material supply line, and it is normal for Fusang people to want to spy on the news."
From what I know, the number of officers in your army, with the exception of Colonel Kubi, who have been bribed to leak information to the Fuso, is far beyond your estimate. You can talk to Mr. Vic about the specific list later! ”
"Thank you! It's just that I want to know, how did General Hu know that he betrayed intelligence? ”
"It's easy! Because I'm Hu Biao! Secondly, I am also the general of the Anti-Japanese War with the highest reward amount in the Japanese army's special high class! It's a pity that the Japanese army's special high school has not been able to take a single photo of me so far, and I have never been defeated in the face of the Japanese army! ”
Wei Junru and others, who came with Hu Biao, felt a little surprised when they heard Hu Biao's unashamed words, but they knew that Hu Biao was not lying. And the rest of the foreign generals are also convinced of this.
As the representative of Menia for this meeting, Lieutenant General Steve also said in a timely manner: "Dennis, if you want to stop the Fusang army this time, General Hu and his subordinates are very important. You should be thankful for offering to find out this traitor! ”
"Thank you!"
"You're welcome! The enemy of my enemy is my friend! As allies, we are friends now. What's more, at present, our country also needs this transportation and supply line, so we were invited to participate in this meeting and are willing to stop the Japanese army for your army. ”
In front of the generals, Hu Biao broke Dennis's face, and he had to apologize to Hu Biao. Seeing the gold bars found in Kuby's room, Dennis felt even more blushing, and was also scared into a cold sweat, thinking that this was indeed terrible.
If Hu Biao hadn't pulled out Kubi in advance, he could have believed that all the contents of the meeting would have been known to the Japanese army in a very short time. In that case, their next move will also become extremely passive.
Not long after the generals moved in, Hu Biao walked into the rooms of these generals with two team members. Just when the generals were confused, Hu Biao signaled them not to speak.
Two team members with instruments quickly searched the room where the general lived. Seeing this scene, the generals who participated in the meeting also knew that Hu Biao should be searching for bugs. This kind of agent equipment, the generals don't know much.
After the two team members checked and confirmed that there was no problem, Hu Biao explained: "It involves national interests, and we have to guard against it!" ”
"It should be! It seems that with Brother Hu here this time, we can save a lot of things! ”
"I will do my best to fight for all of you. All we need to do is to tell the other three generals that it's okay to send troops to help in the war. Correspondingly, we must have independent combat rights, and we cannot hand over all command to them. ”
"Will they agree to such a request?"
"If you don't agree, don't talk about it! Then keep dragging! I would also like to see if the British colonial army alone can hold back the strong attack of the Japanese army. The longer it drags on, the greater their losses. There are too many troops killed in battle, and they can't afford the consequences! ”
Compared with the anti-Japanese war troops, most of the time, they don't care too much about casualties. Hu Biao knew very well that those colonial troops who shouted to defend the honor of England were weak in combat effectiveness, and they were not the elite opponents of the Japanese army at all.
Once the casualty count increases, those foreign devils will either flee or surrender. The number of troops wiped out by the Japanese army was too large, and it was believed that the colonial government would not be able to sit still. What's more, their colony itself is not very peaceful at the moment!
After reaching an internal unanimity, although some generals felt that Hu Biao was too autocratic. It stands to reason that this kind of thing should let Wei Junru come forward. But Wei Junru felt that if this matter was negotiated, it was not clear whether it would be meritorious, and if it was bad, he would definitely be punished.
In contrast, Wei Junru knew that Lao Jiang could not cure Hu Biao's crime at all. And what Hu Biao is doing now is all from the standpoint of going out to conquer the army. Wouldn't it be more beneficial for the government and the troops to go on the expedition if the more benefits were gained?
In the subsequent talks, Wei Jun Ruoran said very cheerfully: "Ladies and gentlemen, my English level is limited, and General Hu will be fully responsible for the specific negotiations." If you have any objections, you can do so! ”
As a result, it is obvious that in addition to Dennis being a little depressed, Lieutenant General Steve, the representative of Menia, Lieutenant General Peake, the representative of Faransi, and the representative of Observation Vic, are all on Hu Biao's side without exception, and they are more willing to talk to Hu Biao.
To put it simply, it was England that was going to bleed heavily this time, and Menia was just contributing some money and weapons. As for Lieutenant General Pique of Faransi, he came to play soy sauce and basically didn't talk much.
By holding on to the Indochina colony, in less than two years, Peake was promoted from a lieutenant colonel to a lieutenant general. He knew better than anyone else who was the person who really stopped the Japanese invasion, even Wei Ke was Hu Biao's subordinate!
When it comes to command, Dennis and Steve seem to be a bit insistent. In response to this insistence, Hu Biao also said unceremoniously: "It is impossible for us to completely hand over the right to combat and command to you, not to mention that you don't know much about our army."
Since they are fighting together, I would like to ask, as the deputy commander-in-chief of the front, do I have the right to mobilize your army to fight? If not, then why do you have to be in absolute command? ”
"But we have spent so much money and weapons, we can't have no rights, right?"
"How could it not be? The joint command is commanded by General Steve and our General Wei is the deputy commander-in-chief. If we really need our army to support or fight, won't a telegram solve the problem?
If the command is handed over to you, do you dare to guarantee that I will not be put at the forefront of the expedition? We are helping the war, not cannon fodder, let alone mercenaries, I hope the two of you understand this, we can drag it out! ”
Seeing Hu Biao's appearance of fighting for every inch of land, the two foreign generals also had a headache, but General Peake at this time said: "The right to fight and command is not important, the important thing is that you must send troops as soon as possible to block the attack of the Japanese army."
This meeting is also more about crushing the Japanese army, ensuring that our colonies are not occupied, and that your country's supply lines are not affected. Under this premise, all parties should work together, not fight for too long for one command! ”
Lieutenant General Peake, who acted as a peacemaker, was very calm, and the Indochina colony he was in charge of had a large number of elite wolf army guards, and he did seem very relieved. Even if he knew that this colony would be difficult to recover when the war ended.
Lieutenant General Kopik knew better that by the time the war was over, perhaps he would have been transferred back home. By holding the colony and resisting the attacks of the Fusos, he will still become a hero in the eyes of others.
Even if someone held him accountable when he returned home, he could have put the blame on Governor Louis. No matter how bad it is, with the benefits provided by Vic, Pique doesn't have to worry about money for the rest of his life!
Knowing that Hu Biao is his own financier, Lieutenant General Pique naturally wants to perform well and strive to get more benefits!
