Chapter 181: Flip the table directly
After several years of heavy investment in construction and technology accumulation, Hu Biao, who began to build various factories in the French colony, also began to enter the fast lane of development. In Hu Biao's view, there is not much time left for him to develop with peace of mind.
Compared with Menia and the Soviet Union, which have a strong industrial system, the wolf army is still very weak at this moment. If you want to survive at the end of the war, the wolf army must have its own killer weapon and have the soft and hard power that the two countries fear.
Soft power is the Wolf Army's military technology and people's livelihood economy. Hard power, that is the real combat power of the wolf army. As long as those military powers are jealous, then the wolf army may be able to avoid going through war again and gain a voice.
Through the renamed Shuorat Intelligence Bureau, even on the way to inspect various places, Hu Biao can still learn about some major events and battles that are taking place around the world. As for the Southwest Colonies, they can't hide anything from the Rat Intelligence Department.
After years of development and financial investment, the Intelligence Department is now not limited to the Asian battlefield. On the European battlefield, on the front line of the Soviet-German confrontation, you can see the figure of the Squirrel intelligence officer. The Intelligence Analysis Division summarizes and reports information on a daily basis.
After receiving a telegram from Europe, Hu Biao said with a little emotion: "The house leak happened to rain overnight, and I am afraid that the mustache will have a worse time." The three-legged Axis alliance is now missing a leg! ”
In this telegram, the intelligence group sent to Europe to find out that the supreme commander of the Italian army, who was allied with the German army, was secretly arrested by the opposition forces in the country. The opposition, on the other hand, soon formed a provisional government.
The opposition forces that dared to make such a decision were self-evidently supported by the Allies. When the situation between the Allies and the Axis began to reverse, such a thing happened, and the blow to the Axis Allies can be imagined.
Fortunately, you can pay attention to these things, and after thinking for a while, Hu Biao continued: "In view of the current situation in Europe, I will order the intelligence team to increase the scale of talent rescue. Provide more funding and security for those scientific research experts who are willing to relocate. ”
"Yes, wolfhead!"
Although some people feel that relocating too many foreigners may bury hidden dangers. But for Hu Biao, if you want to overtake in corners, you must have more scientific research experts and teams. As for the hidden dangers, who would dare to mess around with the wolf army?
Moreover, even in the Ivan Farm, where foreigners live the most, Hu Biao also relocated many wolf soldiers' families. In addition to granting foreign immigrants a moderate degree of freedom, all other rights are controlled by Hu Biao. If you dare to make trouble, then suppress it!
As for the Outer First Division, Hu Biao is not afraid of their collective rebellion. With the relocation of the 2nd Division and other elites to the Ivan Farm, the 1st Outer Division, composed of White Russian ethnic groups, dared to make a betrayal move, and it would be suppressed with all its might.
What's more, most of the officers in that unit were admirers of Hu Biao. Unless Ivan and his son have any ideas, Hu Biao is not worried that the Ivan Farm Area will get out of control. When the situation stabilizes, he will also increase exchanges between various places.
For the relocated scientific research and technical personnel, they come here across the ocean, in addition to the opportunity to continue working, but also hope to have a relatively safe living environment. War is undoubtedly something they abhor and resent.
When the European intelligence group sent another telegram of the surrender of the Italian army to the Allied forces, Hu Biao's eyes turned to the domestic battlefield. When the national army was still publicizing the victory of the Battle of Western Hubei, Hu Biao knew that a new round of general battle was about to be staged.
Walking to the domestic map hanging in the war room, Hu Biao looked at the Liucheng area of Hunan Province and said: "It seems that in the next step, the little devils will still gather heavy troops and start attacking the Liucheng area, so as to open up the strategic passage from the south to the southwest."
Once the Japanese army's conspiracy succeeds, then the one in the mountain city is afraid that he will not be able to sit still again. A telegram was sent to General Bai Chongxi, suggesting that he start building fortifications in the border area between Guizhou and Hunan and prepare for the Japanese attack.
Secondly, coastal areas also need to strengthen vigilance, and if we have news, we will also remind them in time. On the domestic battlefield, sometimes the message will not be delivered in a timely manner. In order to avoid being attacked by the Japanese army, it is better to take precautions as soon as possible! ”
"Yes, wolfhead!"
Recalling the Battle of Liucheng known in his previous life, Hu Biao knew that this battle was also known as the Oriental version of the Battle of Stalingrad in later generations. Although he didn't know the next move of the Japanese army, Hu Biao still felt that this battle was inevitable again.
After the Battle of Liucheng is over, the Japanese army will set off a new Battle in the southwest. The Japanese army, which does not advance by sea and by land, will also be swept by a new offensive in many provinces. Let Bai Chongxi prepare early, but also hope to make him prepare in his heart.
In addition, Hu Biao also sent a telegram to Dai Li, who had always been in touch, in his private name, asking him to remind the Sixth and Ninth War Zones to pay attention to the junction of Liucheng. Once it was broken through by the Japanese army, the consequences were unimaginable.
Even if he was calculated by the mountain city last time, it really made Hu Biao very unhappy. But as a descendant of Yan and Huang, Hu Biao also hopes that the national army can take precautions as soon as possible. In that case, perhaps in this battle, the national army would not have paid such a heavy price.
An inch of mountains and rivers, an inch of blood, such a heroic thing, if it can be a little less, why not?
With Hu Biao's several telegrams sent, Bai Chongxi of the Gui Department quickly reacted. With more contact with Hu Biao, Bai Chongxi admired Hu Biao's strategic vision more and more. The troops previously deployed along the border were also mobilized to stand by near Guilin City.
Some strategic routes in and out, Bai Chongxi also ordered the construction of fortifications to begin. Even if these fortifications may not be used in the future, they can still bring more safety to the Gui family. Therefore, the construction of these fortifications is not without meaning.
To Hu Biao's surprise, Shancheng didn't seem to pay attention to Hu Biao's reminder. After the investigation of the Shuo Rat Intelligence Group, Hu Biao learned that the one in the mountain city seemed to have disappeared for a while, and it was unknown where he went.
After receiving this encrypted telegram, Hu Biao thought about it carefully, and quickly recalled the 'Cairo Declaration' signed by the Nationalist Government with Menia and England during World War II. Not surprisingly, at this moment, Lao Jiang is on his way abroad.
Thinking of this, Hu Biao could only sigh: "I hope everything is still in time!" A telegram was sent to the Anhuashan base, and a brigade of combat troops was dispatched to the vicinity of Liucheng to assemble and stand by, always paying attention to the movements of the Japanese army. ”
"Yes, wolfhead!"
What surprised Hu Biao even more was that not long after, Wei Junru sent a secret telegram, which was the latest instructions from Lao Jiang. In view of the current state of chaos in the British Indian colonies, the Nationalist Government decided to increase the number of expeditionary troops.
In addition, Wei Junru also told Hu Biao that he was transferred back to Shancheng for another appointment. The new commander-in-chief of the expeditionary army is Chen Cheng, Lao Jiang's hardcore confidant. Hearing the news, Hu Biao knew that there were some things that could not be changed in the end.
"Call General Wei back and wish him a smooth journey! Send another telegram to the Allied Joint Command, in view of the fact that the command has made such a major decision without any notice and consultation, our department has withdrawn from the combat sequence! ”
"Wolf head, wouldn't this be too radical?"
"Is it excessive? Some people like to inch in! Some people may think that I am easier to bully. In that case, let's stay and watch the show and see what tricks they can play. ”
"Yes, wolfhead!"
"Summoning the whole army to enter the first level of combat readiness. Blocking all access to and from the control zone, prohibiting any combat unit from entering our zone without permission. Send a telegram to Brooke and ask him to forward it to the Meniya military, saying that I am disappointed! ”
"Understood!"
"Cancel all cooperation with the Menia Air Fleet, withdraw our pilots in the Air Force, stop providing modifications to the Menia fighters! Low-key for too long, some people may forget that in the southwest, who has the final say now! ”
Looking at Hu Biao, who gave instructions one after another, the staff officers in the combat duty room also knew that Hu Biao was really angry this time. As the deputy commander-in-chief of the joint command, the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary army was replaced, and he did not even greet Hu Biao.
Since the allies feel that Hu Biao is dispensable, then Hu Biao will make the allies feel uncomfortable!
After thinking about it for a while, Hu Biao continued: "Send a report to the 1st Division to stop the pursuit of the Japanese army. All combat units are to be withdrawn to the area where the Tribal Self-Reliance Army is located to recuperate. If the two generals Sun and Dai want to withdraw, they don't have to be reluctant! ”
"Yes, wolfhead!"
After the multiple telegrams were sent, the Allied Joint Command was in chaos for an instant. As the commander-in-chief of the Allied forces, Steve immediately sent a telegram to Hu Biao, hoping to meet with Hu Biao. As a result, Hu Biao directly replied 'not available'!
What really made the Allies feel uncomfortable was that the independent division, which had originally maintained offensive pressure on the Japanese army, and the two main divisions of the expeditionary army that cooperated with its attack, retreated without any greetings and rested, ignoring the orders of the command headquarters.
What worries the Allies even more is that the 2nd Division of the Wolf Army stationed in Mandeb City seems to be preparing to evacuate. This also means that the supply lines and communication channels of the Japanese army, which were previously cut off, may be opened at any time.
Once the Japanese army continues to increase troops in the Indian colonies, the erosive war in the Indian colonies will become more and more unfavorable to the British colonial army. The heads of state of the three countries, who were meeting abroad, also soon received an urgent telegram from the front.
Seeing Hu Biao's reaction, the head of England was also shocked and said, "General, isn't this Hu your subordinate?" Why did he dare to make such a decision without asking for advice? Does he want to break the agreement on joint Allied operations? ”
In the eyes of the English leaders, Hu Biao was Lao Chiang's subordinate. Lao Jiang made a decision, Hu Biao should not dare to resist. As a result, no one expected that Hu Biao would not dump Shancheng at all, and directly said that he would flip the table.
On the contrary, the head of Menia was extremely calm. With regard to the Nationalist Government's increase in troops to the Indian colonies, the Mesnian side also expressed its support. However, as for the removal of commanders, the Meniah leaders also said that they need to consider carefully.
Taking this opportunity, the head of the United States also wanted to test Hu Biao's reaction. If Hu Biao chooses to forbear, then in the later cooperation with the wolf army, Menia will also seek more right to speak. Unexpectedly, Hu Biao would react so violently.
Directly throwing off the Meniya military, which is closely working with it, is indeed quite a shock to the Meniya side. However, judging from the current battlefield situation, while the Allied forces in the Asian battlefield are inseparable from the support of the Nationalist Government, it seems that Hu Biao's support is indispensable!
