207. Shock
London's Downing Street was dead.
In the Second Battle of Assam, China's strength was once again fully revealed, and its powerful military power pressed on the head of the Western world like a mountain, making everyone almost breathless, and the sharp blade made the entire Western world feel the breath of death.
The Prime Minister's Office in Downing Street is filled with an oppressive, suffocating atmosphere.
Baldwin rushed to the prime minister's office with a solemn expression, only to find that Churchill was doing business as if nothing had happened, which made him at a loss. In his imagination, Churchill as prime minister should have been furious, could he have been scared stupid.
Churchill had already seen Baldwin and smiled, "Hi, Your Excellency Baldwin, you're here." ”
Baldwin almost wondered if he was mistaken, the news of the defeat of Assam was a hallucination that he had been drunk yesterday, but he knew it was definitely not. So, he hesitated: "Your Excellency Churchill, Your Excellency Prime Minister, don't you know about the Battle of Assam?" ”
Churchill said lightly: "I know. ”
Baldwin said incredulously, "If you know, why are you still so calm?" ”
"It's happened, and we're irreparable, aren't we?" Churchill said seriously, "What's more, I said at the time that the Chinese retreat was very strange, and for this reason I think the famine turmoil in India is not entirely a bad thing, because it will make our British army mainly responsible for encircling the rebellion and supporting logistics." It is true that the losses of the coalition forces in the Battle of Assam were large, but our losses were small. Isn't it? ”
Baldwin stared blankly at Churchill as if he didn't know the man. After a long time, he couldn't help but say, "Don't you know the huge impact of this incident?" Now the whole of Europe has exploded, and people are going crazy. ”
Churchill exclaimed, "Isn't that bad? ”
Baldwin said angrily, "Isn't that good? ”
Churchill said seriously: "Of course. This war made the entire Western world realize the strength of the Chinese, and if this war is lost, then the entire Western world will fall into hell and we will lose the whole world. This is no longer just a matter for our British Empire, but for the entire white Western world, where all countries have declared war on the Chinese, and it is not possible to withdraw if they want to. If they don't want the Yellow Peril to come, then they have to fight it. Go all out to defeat the Chinese. ”
Baldwin noticed that Churchill had changed. The Churchill in front of him is no longer the Churchill he is familiar with, but more like a cold-blooded animal who can indifferently ignore millions of lives. This change made him uncomfortable and very sad.
Of course. He understood what Churchill meant. Under the blow of a huge defeat on the battlefield on the South Asian subcontinent front. Since war is inevitable, the countries of the West will become even more exhausted, with more than two million white soldiers killed and wounded. It will make China and the entire Western world have a deep enmity.
At this moment, he even suspected that Churchill had long known about the Chinese's schemes, and couldn't help but say, "Did you already know?" ”
Churchill shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I believe that the Chinese will not retreat for no reason." After a pause, he continued, "Your Excellency, the situation in India is critical, and I need to urgently send colonial troops from Africa and the Arab world to reinforce India. If you don't have anything else to do, you won't be accompanied. ”
Baldwin looked at Churchill in a daze.
Quiet inside the Rothschild family estate in Jerusalem, Israel.
Nathan and Carl looked at each other, barely believing that the news they had received was true.
When the Second Battle of Assam gradually took shape, both the Chinese and Western coalition forces committed unprecedented forces on the front line, and they even guessed how fierce the decisive battle of such an unprecedented scale would be. But no one expected such a result.
"This is a 'water attack', taken from the Chinese military history allusion 'flooded the Seventh Army'." Karl let out a mocking sigh.
Nathan said with a smile: "I've heard that the 'flooded Seventh Army' in Chinese history only destroyed tens of thousands of enemy troops at once, but now Li Bufan has defeated the 1.5 million army of the Western rebel army in one fell swoop, and directly killed millions of elites." It's terrible, but I can't understand why the Chinese army has behaved very poorly and poorly since the Opium War, since the Chinese Art of War is so powerful. ”
Karl sighed: "China's art of war is indeed a good thing, but no matter how good it is, someone must be able to use it, and whether it is used well is the key." Even if you are given a machine gun, you won't use it, so what's the use? You might as well give you a pistol that you can use. The Chinese's art of war is too vicious and terrifying, and it uses the great power of nature, and it is not something that small manpower can resist. ”
Nathan nodded, "yes." However, there are too many restrictions, Li Bufan used a series of means to cover up his strategic killer weapon, and the Chinese army fought all the way to central India for this, who would have thought that a trap one or two thousand kilometers away was prepared for them? The Chinese looted India's wealth, and everyone thought that the Chinese invaded India to grab money. Unexpectedly, all this was to divert attention, and in order to ensure success, the Chinese also pretended to defend on the front line of the Tibetan South River-Tista River. Three steps, one wrong, the whole plan can go bankrupt. ”
Carl sighed with emotion and smiled bitterly: "Yes." If it weren't for the division of the coalition forces, I was afraid that the losses would be even heavier, and the battle would have even been basically over. ”
Of course, they didn't know that in fact, Li Bufan really didn't want the powers to divide their troops, but the situation at that time was incomprehensible to Li Bufan. If Li Bufan did not divide his troops at that time, but the great powers divided their troops to attack Burma, or even invaded Myitkyina to the north, the consequences would be unimaginable. Even if Myitkyina held on, if the great powers attacked all the way east, penetrated the Indochina Peninsula, or even captured the Malay Peninsula, the situation in the Nanyang Islands would be unimaginable.
If it weren't for the last resort, Li Bufan would certainly want to wipe out the more than two million troops of the great powers in one fell swoop in a flood, how much trouble it would have. China had to divide its troops, but China's division of troops also forced the allied forces of the great powers to divide their troops, which was simply a trigger that affected the whole body.
Nathan sighed, "Xia Fei's million-strong coalition army in Burma is afraid that it will not be able to support it for a few days before it surrenders. At that time, our country was called upon to participate in logistics and transportation, and we all know that there was a food crisis there. The Burmese side has only arrived with the first batch of grain, which is enough for fifteen days, and now five days have passed, and the second batch of grain has not yet crossed the Tibetan River. China's elite forces are rapidly weaving their way around Bengal to cut through the Burmese coalition forces, and if successful, Xiafei's million-strong army will be encircled. If there is enough food, they can also hold on to reinforcements with an army of millions. But if they don't have anything to eat, how can they hold on? I don't want to starve to death, I have to surrender. ”
"It's amazing, it's amazing." Karl was amazed by the use of tactics and tactics by the Chinese army, and even shuddered. They are not soldiers, but shopping malls are like battlefields, to the point where they are almost universal, although shopping malls are more weird, but they are far less dangerous than the battlefield. They were "listening to thunder in a silent place," which was very thrilling.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Nathan's mouth, "Awesome, this proves that our strategy is right." I think that with the current war situation, the Chinese will soon be able to conquer India, and the front will be directed at the Middle East, and once our country borders the Chinese's sphere of influence, then we can really get rid of the control of the West. ”
At this moment, Nathan and Carl felt how wise the decision to "leave a way back" was, the wealth accumulated to the point where there was only a string of numbers left, and their pursuit had long since changed to the survival of the family, the independence of the country and the nation
The success of Li Bufan's "co-work plan" and the news of the victory in the second battle of Assam reached China, and the clamor of the media and public opinion in China came to an abrupt end.
After a short period of silence, the media dominated by the Central Daily, which was supported by Li Bufan, quickly broke out, and the news of the victory spread all over the country, and people in the Central Plains rushed to celebrate each other. The voice of the main battle faction instantly drowned out the anti-war voice, and praised Li Bufan's wise decision with countless beautiful words.
The historical allusion of the "flooding of the Seventh Army" is no longer a legend, a new record has been set, and Li Bufan's "Gonggong Plan" has drowned the million-dollar coalition army in the West in one fell swoop.
In the meeting room of the Kuomintang Party headquarters, there was silence.
Sun Wen, Jiang Weiren, Wang Jingwei and other high-ranking Kuomintang officials have actually wanted to question Li Bufan why he retreated again and again. But Li Bufan has been avoiding it, and he actually went to the front line. They could only wait, but they didn't expect to wait for a shocking reversal in the tide of battle.
"What a means, I'm not as good as him." Sun Wen sighed deeply, even if he thought of himself very highly, and his eyes were high, he had to admire him so much that he was ashamed.
Jiang Weiren smiled bitterly: "It's not that our Chinese art of war is useless, but that no one has learned it well and used it well before." 'With a wave of his hand, the captives are wiped out', Li Bufan is really magical, he is really a god. He fantasized about Li Bufan's expression and action when he gave this plan, and he couldn't help but be fascinated by that peerless demeanor.
Wang Jingwei still said worriedly: "Even if we win this battle, in terms of overall strength, the Western world still has an absolute advantage. I don't deny that Li Bufan has outstanding ability, a group of leaders, incomparable, and can compete with the whole world on his own, which is difficult. ”
Sun Wen's face was gloomy, and he snorted coldly: "We have Li Bufan as a commander and lead the army, why not be afraid of the West, Zhaoming can't grow the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige." He looked at the extremely handsome Wang Jingwei, but he was extremely disappointed in his heart.
At this moment, Sun Wen remembered Li Bufan's words - since the braid on his head has been cut, what is the braid in his heart still for? (To be continued......)
