Chapter 1663 *
The group entered the small conference room of the headquarters, sat down in priority and order, and the service staff made tea and brought out seasonal melons and fruits.
Stilwell didn't say a word about the purpose of this trip, he talked about the trivialities of Southeast Asia in recent times, complaining that Jiang Haoran didn't take him, the chief of staff of the Southeast Asian theater, seriously about it, and hid so many things from him in the three countries, such a huge military factory in the jungles of Burma hid it from him, and even a 318 institute He didn't even receive a trace of news.
This made him very passive, and he did not know anything about the inquiries of the Allied General Headquarters, so he was scolded bloody, and now the Southeast Asian Theater General Headquarters he was guarding was about to become a dry rest house, and his daily job as the chief of the General Staff was to read books, read newspapers, sleep, fish, eat, and die.
Although what Stilwell said is a bit exaggerated, it is basically the truth, Jiang Haoran, the commander-in-chief, rarely goes once a year, important documents will be sent to the place where he lives, and there is no such thing as campaign deployment and plan formulation, and the Southeast Asian Theater Command has completely become a fictitious organization.
Jiang Haoran has been quietly listening to Stilwell's complaints, and basically does not refute them, and always watches Stilwell's performance with a hint of evil smile on his face.
He was like a mirror in his heart, this dead old man was trying to win sympathy, play the family card, and lay the foundation for his next purpose, and he also had a hunch that the allies were indeed in great trouble, and what he wanted to do for them would probably not be small, otherwise with Stilwell's character, he would have gotten straight to the point.
"Well, I'll admit I lost." Stilwell finally finished his speech, and when he saw Jiang Haoran's expression, he knew that his wishful thinking had failed, and he confessed.
"Let's get straight to the point." Jiang Haoran still seemed to be smiling.
"Whew." Stilwell let out a long breath and said gloomily, "The Allies are surrounded. ”
"What, surrounding?" Jiang Haoran ejected from his seat, this time he was not pretending, but he was really taken aback.
After all, he was still the commander-in-chief of the Southeast Asian theater of operations, and he also planned the Normandy landing battle, so the Allied General Command would send him a war briefing every day.
Judging from the war briefing, the Allied army has already landed more than 1.3 million troops from Normandy, and it is a lot of effort to encircle 1.3 million troops.
At least two million troops, right? Not to mention whether the German army can transfer such a large number of troops, the key is that with so many troops, how can they hide from the world under the powerful aerial search of the Allies?
Also, since it is an encirclement, the first thing is to cut off the follow-up troops and prevent the Allies from continuing to land, but the Allies have invested three million troops for this, and at least one million more will continue to be put into the battlefield in the future.
"Yes, that's right, it's the siege." Stilwell replied in the affirmative, and then added: "The news of the landing in Normandy has been leaked long ago, and the Nazis have been prepared for a long time, and have made a big trap waiting for us to jump in." ”
"How they did it, you tell me in detail." Jiang Haoran was obviously anxious.
Stilwell said: "The Atlantic barrier is not as simple as we see and hear, all the trenches, fortresses, dragon's teeth, barbed wire, mines, all are illusions, what is really powerful is that the German army dug several hidden passages tens of kilometers or even hundreds of kilometers long about 50 kilometers from the landing site, which can provide tens of thousands of troops to pour into the core of the battlefield at the same time and cut off the retreat of the Allies." ”
"Did this work?" Jiang Haoran replied unconsciously, indeed, it is reasonable for tens of thousands of people to succeed in a sneak attack, but to cut off the retreat of more than a million troops, this matter is a bit nonsense.
"*, they used*." Stilwell had a look of despair and trepidation on his face.
“*?”
"What the hell?"
There was an exclamation in the room, but including Jiang Haoran, all of them were dazed on their faces, obviously they didn't know what the hell "*" was.
Stilwell said: "* It's not a ghost, it's a biochemical virus, a nerve agent, the poisoned person will be blind immediately, can't control the body functions and quickly suffocate, basically will die within a few minutes, it can enter the human body through the lungs, skin and even eyes, even if only 1 ml enters the human body through the skin can immediately take people's lives, the toxin is far more terrifying than the mustard gas, nitrogen mustard, and Louis gas of the monkey army, and the inhumane Nazis used this virus in cannonballs and even hand Leiry, They suddenly emerged from the tunnels, inflicting immeasurable casualties on the Allies, and the battlefield was cut in two parts. ”
After Stilwell finished speaking, his eyes were a little dazed, and his face was full of pain, as if the battlefield was in front of him, and the mournful music sounded, and in the smoke of gunpowder, millions of corpses were bleeding for thousands of miles.
As if infected by Stilwell, there was silence in the conference room, and everyone's eyes were lowered and they were silent.
The Germans used poison gas bombs in World War I, arguably the first time they brought poison gas to the battlefield.
But throughout World War II, the German army did not use poison gas on the battlefield again, and the reason was not that they found it in conscience, but that after World War I, the Nazis knew the danger of poison gas, and they always believed that the Americans and Soviets had higher technology in this regard than them, and they were afraid of retaliation.
There is another important reason, although the armored weapons of the German army at that time were very advanced and powerful, but the logistics still relied on mules and horses to a large extent, but the horses of the German army did not wear anti-poison equipment, once provoked a poison gas war, it was undoubtedly self-defeating. If all the mules and horses were to be fitted with gas masks, the cost was too high and somewhat unaffordable for Germany at that time.
At this time, the Germans ignored these worries, on the one hand, it showed that they were in a hurry to achieve the idea that there would be a decisive victory, and on the other hand, it also showed that the Germans were crazy, and their subjective consciousness was obvious.
Jiang Haoran broke the silence and said: "Even if this is the case, you still have planes and heavy artillery, even if you use aerial bombs and shells, you can smash a way, and you will never be helpless because of tens of thousands of troops, right?" ”
Stilwell said: "That's right, just these tens of thousands of people plus * are not enough to make the allies so embarrassed, the key is that they have an ambush on the left and right flanks, with more than 400,000 troops, and each road is open with more than 300 tanks from two armored divisions. It was only at this time that the Allies discovered that there were still complete fortifications they had built under a few meters of soil on the ground, and one after another missile and missile launch towers had also emerged from the ground, and the powerful Allied air force could not get close at all, and the naval guns were not within range at all. ”
