Chapter 346: Dilemma
This news is simply an incredible thing for those here, even the most idiotic people know that this matter must not be easily agreed.
Chen Lifu immediately shouted: "How is this possible? Are these old hairy people fools when we are stupid? How many troops do we have in the country today? As soon as he opened his mouth, he asked us to mobilize a million troops to launch a counteroffensive, and within half a month, isn't it a joke? ”
"They weren't kidding." Chen Bui said: "This is an official document sent by them, and it also has the signature of Molotov, the chairman of their People's Council. After speaking, Chen Bui handed the official document to everyone.
After reading it, everyone was speechless by default, and after a long time, Chen Cheng asked: "Now that the Soviets and the Japanese are fighting at Nomenkan, it seems that their situation is not very good now." ”
Chen Bui nodded and said: "Yes, now the Soviets and the Japanese are fighting very vigorously at Nomenkan, and what the Soviets are most worried about is that Japan will transfer the troops in the Guannai to the northeast, and in the end, the two sides will fight more and more." You must know that the Soviets' main energy is on Europe, Germany is their main enemy, and it is impossible for them to transfer too many troops to the Far East, so it is their best choice to contain the Japanese. ”
"Huh...... Let's take a shot for them, Lao Maozi's abacus is really good! Chen Lifu on the side sneered.
Chen Guofu calmed down a lot and asked the most important question: "Since we are going to work hard for them, we have to pay for our lives, what price do they plan to pay?" ”
Hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to Chen Bui.
Chen Bui took a deep breath before saying, "The Soviets said it." As long as we are willing to cooperate with the Battle of Nomenkan and take the initiative to send troops to launch a campaign in the pass to contain the Japanese army, they are willing to transfer the full set of equipment of our ten infantry divisions and 300 I-16 fighters after the battle. ”
"Hiss ......"
Hear here. Everyone gasped, and the price was not small. The equipment of the ten Soviet-style infantry divisions is not enough, and these 300 I-16 fighters are the most scarce thing in China at present. Today, the number of fighters capable of fighting in the sky has been sharply reduced to less than 40, and if 300 new fighters can be added at once, it will be a huge increase in the combat effectiveness of the Huaxia Air Force.
For a moment, many people almost blurted out their consent. Even Chen Cheng's lips squirmed twice, but he finally swallowed the words.
The reaction of the crowd was the same as Chen Cheng. But in the end, everyone turned their attention to Chairman Jiang who was sitting in the middle of the sofa, this matter is too big, and only this person can be the master.
I saw Chairman Jiang slowly open his eyes. Turning his gaze to He Yingqin, he asked slowly: "Jingzhi, what do you think of this matter?" ”
Seeing his boss asking, He Yingqin stood up and said: "Commission, this matter is clear that the Soviets want to use us to work for them." And as soon as you open your mouth, it's a million troops. In the opinion of the Department, this is not feasible. You must know that the state affairs are difficult now, and now our military strength has been sharply reduced from more than 3 million in its heyday to more than 2 million, and this million troops is half of all our troops. ”
"Cixiu, what about you?" The chairman of the committee asked Chen Cheng.
Chen Cheng said without hesitation: "Chairman of the National Committee, the views of the Ministry of Posts are the same as those of Minister He, and the promises made by the Soviets will not be fulfilled until the Battle of Nomenkan is over. This is too much to look down on us, right? What if the old man is cheating? ”
"That's right." Everyone couldn't help but be dumbfounded. Lao Maozi is notoriously arrogant and domineering, don't look at the conditions they offer now, they are very good. But when they don't admit it, where are we going to reason?
Chen Guofu said lightly: "But we now rely on Lao Maozi for many things, for example, we just asked them to buy fighters last month, if we don't agree to their conditions, I'm afraid this matter will be yellow." ”
"Fighter ...... It's fighter again! Chairman Jiang snorted lightly, these days he is simply annoyed by this matter, since last month, the Japanese have been bombing Chongqing almost every day, but Huaxia can only helplessly watch the Japanese pour bombs on this ancient city every day due to the lack of air force, not to mention how aggrieved he is.
Seeing Chairman Jiang's unhappy appearance, He Yingqin felt that the time was ripe, and he suddenly spoke: "Seat, I heard that the 202nd Army stationed in Jiujiang has a flying group, which has dozens of advanced fighters, and if we can bring this aviation group over, it will definitely greatly enhance the strength of our air force." It's a pity that yesterday I sent a telegram to the 202nd Army, but they rejected it. Speaking of which, He Yingqin also made a look of pity, but none of the people present were experts in playing with their hearts, as soon as they saw He Yingqin's action, they knew that this guy's pink eye must have been committed again.
Chen Cheng took the lead and snorted lightly: "Minister He, I'm afraid you don't know." The aircraft are not as good as the infantry, if Su Jin does not agree, even if we forcibly requisition these aircraft, but there is no spare parts to supplement, these fighters will soon lie on their stomachs, dare to ask Minister He at that time, did you personally go to Germany to buy spare parts? ”
He Yingqin was stunned for a moment, although he was the Minister of Military Affairs, but he really didn't know much about the aircraft, thinking that as long as he had an airplane, he didn't know that if there were no sufficient accessories, these planes would not be able to form combat effectiveness, but he didn't give it for nothing, and asked with a sneer: "Since Su Jin can get the accessories from the Germans, we can entrust him to buy them, now that the national disaster is at hand, I don't think the commander of the Soviet army will be so ignorant, right?" ”
After listening to He Yingqin's words, many people present secretly scolded this guy for his shamelessness in their hearts, forcibly conscripting other people's planes, and wanting the other party to continue to be exploited by themselves, which can no longer be described as shameless.
Seeing that Chen Cheng wanted to say something more, Chairman Jiang spoke, "Okay, there is no need to talk about this matter, although Su Jin is acting perversely, but at present, he is still contributing to the country, just yesterday Li Delin also sent him a telegram asking for merit, claiming that the flight brigade of the 202nd Army has helped the Fifth Theater a lot in the past few days, and many generals of the Fifth Theater have also asked for merit for him, so this matter should not be mentioned again." ”
Hearing the words of the chairman, everyone knew that this matter had turned the page, but the matter had returned to the starting point here, that is, to launch a large-scale counterattack in the customs for the sake of Lao Maozi. (To be continued.) )
