Chapter Seventy-Eight: Removing Concerns
The beautiful female reporter's stagnant face turned extremely pale in an instant, and by the time Tank No. 4 appeared in her field of vision, her face had turned dead gray, and she stood there as if she had died of her own father, staring blankly at the rumbling Tank No. 4.
After the tanks were over, there were twenty infantry phalanxes with uniform movements, and looking at these serious, disciplined German soldiers, the beautiful female journalist was completely numb and, after hurriedly taking a few pictures, disappeared into the crowd.
"Welcome...... Welcome...... Down with the Japanese invaders...... Long live China......"
……
The military parade was successfully completed, and the citizens of Nanjing and even the whole of China, under the propaganda of the Nanjing government, spared no effort to publicize it, saw a new dawn in the War of Resistance Against Japan, especially those enthusiastic young people, organized greater parades and enthusiasm for joining the army, and those who did not join the army also went to organize fundraising. The sluggish morale of the officers and men on the front line has improved somewhat, especially the ** on the outer defense line of Nanjing, and the originally hopeless battle now finally has a glimmer of hope.
Chiang Kai-shek hosted a banquet at the presidential residence to entertain some of the leading officers of the Flying Eagle Regiment. The German officers are all more rigorous, and absolutely no one takes the initiative to find Chiang Kai-shek to pull relations, but Li Mo is an alternative, and Chiang Kai-shek and his wife have a hot fight, and Chiang Kai-shek also wants to make friends with the son of the world's arms king.
Li Mo didn't want to get any promotion and fortune from Lao Jiang, he was a German now, that idea was unrealistic, Li Mo just wanted to have a good relationship with Lao Jiang, and then cooperate in the next time, after all, the main soldiers of the Flying Eagle Legion were drawn from **, if Lao Jiang wanted to play some tricks, it was relatively easy, there was a good relationship of trust, and it would be convenient to communicate with each other, so as not to have a gap between the two families.
The other German ** officials were either drinking and chatting, or dancing with the girls who accompanied the dancers, and Li Mo had been invited by Chiang Kai-shek to the lounge next to the banquet alone:
"Mr. Ondet, this military parade has done a good job, and the response from the people and the army is great! It seems that your commander is a man of good ability. ”
Li Mo understood, this Chiang Kai-shek still did not feel at ease to hand over his troops to the command of the Germans, he indirectly asked Li Mo about the news of Rommel, the commander of the "Flying Eagle Army", Li Mo must give Chiang Kai-shek confidence, let him unswervingly trust Rommel, otherwise this unit will not be easy to lead.
"Chairman, let me tell you this! I believe that you should also have some information about General Rommel, he was a hero of the First World War, and he had a lot of combat experience, and he also wrote a book based on his own experience, called "The Infantry on Attack", even the book of the Führer is very respected, which shows that General Rommel's operational theory is also very prominent, and he himself is deeply loved by the soldiers, so please rest assured that General Rommel will definitely bring you unexpected surprises with the Flying Eagle Legion. ”
"Of course, of course, how could I not be at ease with the generals sent by Mr. Hitler! I myself am very satisfied with General Rommel, there is no doubt about that. ”
"What happened to the personnel you transferred, Chairman? After all, now that the war is urgent, the front line is already in danger, and there is a possibility of collapse at any time, so it is necessary to transfer elite ** soldiers to form a complete Flying Eagle Legion, which has a total of three divisions, including two mechanized infantry divisions, one armored division, and a reinforced flying regiment, which requires about 40,000 people. ”
"Of course, the Flying Eagle Legion has transported so much equipment this time, how can I do it if I don't have enough manpower, I have prepared the people, all the elites drawn from the Central Army."
Of course, Chiang Kai-shek could not hand over these advanced weapons and equipment to the local warlord soldiers to master, otherwise when the German instructors left, I am afraid that these weapons would not belong to his old Chiang, and the old Chiang would definitely not make wedding clothes for others. To put it bluntly, the Central Army is Lao Chiang's starting troops, descendant troops, also called Jiangsu and Zhejiang troops.
"Then thank you, Chairman, don't worry, after we leave, I will find a way to completely hand over this heroic unit with advanced weapons and equipment and invincible to the Chairman, if others want to get involved in this unit, it will be a broken hand or a broken foot, Chairman of the Committee, you can put 10,000 hearts! In addition, I also ask the chairman to send the elite 4,000 gendarmes to my armored division, which will be the sharpest knife in the chairman's hand in the future. ”
"Sensible, smart." As soon as Chiang Kai-shek heard this, he burst into laughter at that time, this son of Krupp is worthy of being the son of a big European capitalist! It was so sensible that Chiang Kai-shek's fear was that this army would fall into the hands of his political enemies, and that he would take this army into his own hands no matter what, so that this force would be loyal only to himself, and as soon as this concern was removed, the conversation that followed would be much more pleasant.
Song Meiling didn't talk much, Song Meiling didn't participate in major military affairs, but when she was in front of people, she rarely expressed her position, and after Li Mo left, Chiang Kai-shek asked Song Meiling:
"Meiling, what do you think of this little Krupp."
Song Meiling is still so charming, thought about it and said:
"I am very optimistic about this little Krupp, clever, sensible, can see the essence of things at a glance, is a rare talent, Krupp can have such a son, it is really his blessing, the future of this son is limitless."
"I also see it this way, since little Krupp has eliminated our concerns, then tomorrow I will order the transfer of the 40,000 elite soldiers that have been prepared to them."
……
Some people say that China's thinking is wrong, that is farting, now many people attribute China's backwardness to the fact that the Chinese are too clever, in fact, this is all nonsense, a nation with insufficient wisdom wants to stand on the top of the world's nations, that is a dream. Our backwardness is caused by historical reasons, as well as some of our ancient systems, we Chinese, but we evolved a thousand years earlier than other peoples, and entered a civilized society, when we are people, their nation is still monkeys.
The next day, Rommel was officially recruited into the presidential palace, and the Flying Eagle Legion also ushered in tens of thousands of ragged 40,000 ** soldiers at the station of the big school field, these soldiers did not have good military uniforms, but they had just been drawn from the front line, and the clothes on their bodies had traces of war everywhere, either scorched or torn, and the clothes were trivial.
All the German instructors saw these 40,000 people, and couldn't help but like these soldiers in their hearts, although they were in rags, but their spirit everywhere reflected the heroic spirit that a soldier should have, the German army had 17,000 infantry mechanized divisions, only 12,000 armored divisions, and the total strength of the Flying Eagle Legion reached 46,000 people, and these 40,000 troops were still not enough!
