Section 370 The End of War [II]

Qin Lang's method......

In the end, Dewey still didn't know what method Qin Lang was going to use. www.biquge.info Of course, the United States is responsible for the terrorist attacks, putting all the blame on the Filipinos, calling them terrorists, and then eliminating them -- the core strategy of the plan is easy to understand, but what are the specific steps?

Qin Lang did not say the specific strategy he was going to adopt. On the one hand, he has not yet figured out which means of terrorist attack should be used, and on the other hand, no matter which means of attack is used, American servicemen will be harmed, and this issue will inevitably lead to fierce opposition from the rear admiral.

Dewey was always a professional soldier, not a professional politician, and he had one common problem in Americans of this era: idealism. So, while he can rightfully deceive the Filipinos, he has no way to accept any conspiracy that could harm American soldiers and civilians.

A concrete plan of action can only be told to Washington.

Of course, it wasn't yet, and the time wasn't ripe yet – and he never said when it was "when the time was right."

Qin Lang likes to deliberately maintain some mystery.

Dewey understood this habit of his, after all, everyone has a habit that is different. But MacArthur hated it: the brigadier general was convinced that Qin Lang had deliberately feigned a sense of mystery just to find an opportunity to sign a new contract with Washington so that his troops could remain in the Philippines, something that the Army's officers hated most.

At least for now, that's what they hate the most.

The attitude of the officers is easy to understand: if the White House and Congress develop the bad habit of using mercenaries, then the already extremely difficult situation of the Federal Army will be further aggravated, perhaps...... In fact, given Congress's usual approach to the Army, the likelihood is high: Congress passed a resolution to cut the federal Army and National Guard in half in size in order to save money for commercial mercenaries.

For those officers who are unwilling or do not have the opportunity to enter the mercenary company, Qin Lang and his mercenaries are more like a threat, but they have no way to eliminate it, then the best thing to do is to make them disappear in front of their eyes. Since you can't see it, of course you won't be upset.

MacArthur was almost impatient for the mercenary to leave the Philippines and, of course, would vehemently oppose any action or idea of leaving it behind - even if it was only an overt attempt. Interestingly, because he was so firm in believing that Qin Lang was looking for an opportunity to sign a new contract with Washington, when Qin Lang told him that the mercenaries would be evacuated within two days, Mr. Brigadier General didn't react for a while.

"You mean, uh...... Will the California Volunteer Infantry Division be evacuated in two days? MacArthur grabbed his hair hard, "Evacuate the Philippines? ”

"Yes, General MacArthur." Qin Lang smiled, satisfied with the effect he had made.

"Uh...... Evacuation of the Philippines...... All? ”

"That's true, everyone will be evacuated and return to the Guangzhou Bay base. After all, our mission in the Philippines is all over, and the soldiers need to rest and take on new assignments. ”

Rest. Qin Lang carefully recalled the word. Applying it to his mercenaries is undoubtedly closer to a kind of irony, those guys have a really good time in the Philippines, most of the time it doesn't feel like a combat mission, but a vacation in a sunny place, enjoying good food, beer and women, slowly rusting in a sweet life. There is no doubt that each mercenary needs to undergo rigorous and brutal restorative training to recast himself as a killing machine.

Then he recovered from his wandering mind, smiled, and waited for MacArthur to speak.

Fortunately, MacArthur did not pay attention to his habitual wandering mind. Brigadier generals are also thinking about it...... Or worry about one thing: if Qin Lang plans to play a small game of going back and forth, and then sign a new contract with Washington after returning to Guangzhou Bay, give him a damn "surprise......

In God's name, that would be the worst thing in the world.

"What's new?" He asked alertly.

"It's not clear for the time being," Qin Lang shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly, "However, the situation in China has become a little less stable in recent times, so I think that His Majesty the Emperor of China may need my army to help him solve his troubles - you know, my soldiers have solved his problems once, and if the Chinese army can't solve the problems again, he will definitely think of them first." ”

His remarks are reasonable and fully in line with the facts: the situation in China is indeed becoming more and more unstable. Even if MacArthur lacked sufficient knowledge of China, he still knew, according to various sources sent from Washington; And he also knew that Qin Lang's mercenaries had rescued the Chinese emperor from a coup crisis.

As Qin Lang said, if there was a trouble that could not be solved, His Majesty the Emperor would definitely think of his army. MacArthur was finally sure that the mercenaries were indeed leaving the Philippines and would not return to the archipelago - that it was not leaving the Philippines to "surprise" him.

Very good! The Brigadier General was overjoyed and suddenly became smiling, enough to surprise any onlooker who did not understand his thoughts. "Do you have enough transports?" He enthusiastically said, "If you lack a transport ship, I am more than happy to lend the army's transport ship to your army, General Qin." You're welcome. ”

This was the first time MacArthur had called Qin Lang a "general", despite the fact that he was no longer a general in the U.S. army due to the expiration of his contract. But at such a time to celebrate, why care about such petty issues that can only ruin the relationship?

As long as Qin Lang and his troops can be allowed to leave, even if Washington suddenly decides to promote him to major general and award him the Congressional Medal of Honor, MacArthur will not object.

Of course, he will not vote in favor.

Qin Lang knew very well what the Brigadier General was thinking. In fact, it was precisely because he knew what MacArthur would show that he would "kindly" tell him the exact date of the mercenary withdrawal from the Philippines, so that he no longer had to worry about whether it would actually leave the archipelago.

Of course, Qin Lang is not a good person.

Now that he doesn't have to do anything, and he doesn't need to waste saliva, the brigadier general took the initiative to solve the problem of the transport ship for him, using taxpayers' tax dollars to help him transport the army, and the company can save the money and invest it in other projects. Qin Lang began to admire Brigadier General MacArthur: he was not as stubborn, arrogant, and unsensible as others thought, and he was very generous - generous to taxpayers, but that was okay.

"Thank you very much for your generosity, General MacArthur." He stood up and thanked the brigadier general.

"I've already said you're welcome, General Qin." MacArthur also stood up and replied, "I am more than happy to provide any kind of assistance to an American army that has fought valiantly for the United States." ”

He also understood Qin Lang's thoughts: if it wasn't for the purpose of deceiving the transport ship, how could this cunning businessman, who always liked to maintain a sense of mystery, tell him about the mercenary's withdrawal in advance? It's just that his plan is just an inconsequential trifle, and it is only taxpayers' money that is wasted, so there is no need to care about it at all. Moreover, compared to the huge amount of money that Washington wasted in Canton Bay, the cost of the transport ship is only a small matter.

Of course, even if he fully understood and didn't care, he wouldn't be sad about the money spent, but MacArthur still wanted to condemn Qin Lang in his stomach: "Profiteer! ”

"Megalomaniac." Qin Lang replied, also in his stomach.

"Two bastards." MacArthur's adjutant exchanged glances with the military advisers who had followed Qin Lang, and finally found that their views on their superiors were surprisingly consistent.

However, regardless of whether Qin Lang and MacArthur were bastards or not, the mercenary's withdrawal operation began according to the steps they had agreed upon. It is ironic that when it left the Philippines, the army had taken up ten more transport ships than it had when it arrived - it should be noted that the army's transport ships were larger than the cargo ships used by the mercenaries, and the mercenaries had abandoned all the "unnecessary" supplies - of course, everyone knew why.

After a long period of looting, the wealth accumulated by the Spaniards in the Philippines was transferred to the pockets of the Umbrella Company and the mercenaries, and Qin Lang also made another deal: selling the title deeds and some weapons in the hands of the Spaniards to the Chinese in the Philippines, making a large sum of money again.

So, he and his soldiers needed more cabins to load cargo.

"I'm so jealous of those damn bastards." Officers and enlisted men in the army say so. However, only some people, most of whom are officers, are really jealous, and many more are considering whether it is necessary to join the mercenary army after retirement. This is a very real problem: even without taking into account the war dividends, the normal income of joining a mercenary is still higher than serving in the army, and it is easy to get a higher rank.

But if someone wants to join Umbrella, then he must not do anything that offends his boss or makes him angry, but instead does something good that makes him happy and satisfied within the scope of what he can know.

Like what......

"Everyone remember, from now on, it is forbidden to harass the Chinese in the Philippines at any time!" (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) (To be continued.) )
