"Zhao, are you going to make any big moves again? I've seen a lot of officers coming in and out of your headquarters, and it looks like they're all Jews. After dinner, Hunter rubbed his overly full stomach and walked into Zhao Zhi's office in all directions. Zhao Zhi's headquarters is a forbidden place, the mercenaries who serve as guards at the door only recognize Zhao Zhi alone, without Zhao Zhi's order, even Rowling can't enter, Zhao Zhi's office is not so particular, Hunter can enter at any time, and there is no need to knock on the door.

"Well, you're still used to living here, aren't you? When I'm done with the past few days, I'll take you into the mountains to hunt, there are wild boars and wolves in the mountains, I think you should like it. Zhao Zhi stuffed the bread in his mouth and put away all the papers on the table before Hunter walked to his desk, which was all Zhao Zhi's deduction for making a battle plan. Regarding Zhao Zhi's reaction, Hunter just shrugged his shoulders, and did not get angry in the slightest, anyway, he didn't know anything about fighting, if necessary, he believed that Zhao Zhi would definitely take the initiative to tell himself.

Hunter guessed well, Zhao Zhi is not idle at all, it has been half a month since he came back, and he has been hanging out with Rowling all day except sleeping. Su Mei's return made Rowling another playmate, but Zhao Zhi had no one to accompany him, so Zhao Zhi, who couldn't stay idle, planned to find something to do for himself. The United States has been urging the Thunder to send troops south to Singapore, and Zhao Zhi has been using the lack of troops as an excuse to shirk it, but now Japan's defeat has been revealed, if it can't take advantage of this opportunity to seize the initiative, the possibility of the Thunder wanting to divide the interests after the war is very small, so Zhao Zhi needs to plan in advance.

"It's a meeting of the officers, the recruits in the training camp are almost there, and I want to organize a real combat exercise in the near future, a selection exercise for mountain troops." Zhao Zhi didn't tell this mountain force what to do, but Hunter is not a fool, and he should be able to guess an approximate idea with his brain power. "There are almost 60,000 recruits in Dazhi's training camp, and these people are specially selected and replaced, but my mountain army does not need so many people for the time being, I estimate that 20,000 people are enough, so they need to be selected."

"Why?" Hunter seemed to be a little confused about the intention of Zhao Zhi's move, "Didn't you keep saying that the Thunder Thunder was insufficient?" Why brush down more than two-thirds of the recruits, even if they don't qualify for your hill troops, they're better than those Burmese troops. ”

"It's not what you think" Zhao Zhi smiled and took out a cigar and threw it to Hunter who was sitting opposite, "Thunder is just a child who has just learned to walk, it takes a lot of resources to feed so many troops, although there is Myanmar at the moment, but those places in Thailand and Vietnam have just settled down, it is still early to live and work in peace and contentment, and we still need a lot of material investment to make those locals honest and obedient." ”

"The Japanese have not surrendered yet, and the Germans are still as strong as ever, this battle will not be finished for a while and a half, and the thunder cannot be dragged down by the lack of supplies, but there is no place to fight, so we can only try to form and expand the number of troops as little as possible, and we really can't afford to raise it." Zhao Zhi complained bitterly in front of Hunter, putting on a face that he was about to go bankrupt and had nothing to eat, which caused Hunter to laugh non-stop.

Hunter is almost one of the few people who know Zhao Zhi best, and the gold jewelry and everything that Zhao Zhi has obtained over the years have relied on Hunter to sell in Europe, so Zhao Zhi said that he had no money, and Hunter was the first not to believe it. "Your troops are indeed very expensive, and the same amount of money is enough to raise three times as many troops in the United States, so can't you reduce the treatment and equipment of mercenaries a little? This way your money should be enough. "Hunter has some sympathy for Zhao Zhi, it should be that those mercenaries are too expensive.

"No, how can it work?" Zhao Zhi shook his head resolutely, "Do you know why our Thunder can always defeat the Japanese army?" Not only because my mercenaries can fight, but also because those weapons and equipment are also an important reason, the Japanese bolt-action rifles and our Garand cannot be compared, our large-caliber heavy machine guns can penetrate their tanks, and their small guns and heavy machine guns have nothing to do with our mobile fortresses, this is the gap, the gap with money. ”

"Okay, then I can only give you two words, you deserve it." Holding back a smile, Hunter raised two middle fingers at Zhao Zhi, who was deliberately changing the topic, not wanting Hunter to ask about the content of the meeting of Jewish officers. The mercenaries had always had nothing to do with the Jewish forces, and the reserve mercenaries in the selection camp were not guilty of summoning Jewish officers for a meeting.

Receiving Khante's contempt, Zhao Zhi had no choice but to take out the papers that were stored in the drawer and handed them to Khante, "This is just a rough plan, I haven't completed all the deductions, I originally wanted to complete it before going to bed, but you came and interrupted my train of thought, so you can only see this, and the rest is still in my head." ”

"God, Zhao, you're really a bold guy." Looking at the paper in his hand, Hunter was so surprised that he didn't know what to say. "I thought you were going to fight in Singapore in the south, and after a long time, you were preparing to go north to North Korea. The Japanese Kwantung Army is not easy to deal with, didn't you suffer at their hands this time? Why do you have to take the initiative to fight with them, how can there be a matter of the Thai-Vietnamese coalition army, this is a bit different from your style. ”

Zhao Zhi's plan to go north required the investment of about 200,000 troops, and the officers of the Jewish army were called to a meeting, just to determine the number of troops that could be drawn. Thunder now has more than 340,000 Jewish troops, out of the small number of Jewish troops cruising in the Chinese theater of operations, the other Jewish troops are in Burma, Thailand and Vietnam, even if Zhao Zhi sends 200,000 Jewish troops north, it will not affect the stability of Burma, not to mention that 80,000 of the 200,000 troops transferred by Zhao Zhi are the newly formed Thai-Vietnamese coalition army.

"It's not that they fight in vain, like the soldiers of Thunder, these Thais and Vietnamese are also paid for their military salaries, and the spoils of war are also shared, which is much better than their farming." The 80,000 Thai-Vietnamese troops that Zhao Zhi was preparing to transfer were all strong regular troops from Thailand and Vietnam. They all have the experience of serving in the army, and it is impossible to rush back to farm, and besides, these guys who have carried guns are mixed into the civilian population, which is also a big disadvantage to Thunder to control these places, so Zhao Zhi thought about directly transferring them to fight with the Japanese army, and it is best to kill them all and save trouble.

Hunter is a fine person, and he understands Zhao Zhi's actual intentions with a roll of his eyes, but he does not see Zhao Zhi as a butcher executioner, and the Americans were much more tragic when they dealt with the Indians. "Your troops are all going north to North Korea, so what about both the Nationalist Government and the U.S. Congress? Are they all waiting for your Thunder helper? After roughly turning over the paper in his hand, Hunter had a general understanding of Zhao Zhi's plan, Thunder needed the help of the U.S. Navy and the Nationalist Government to provide a transit station to go north, and he couldn't handle the relationship with them, and Zhao Zhi's plan was a pile of waste paper.

"The U.S. Navy should not refuse, as long as the Thunder helps them contain the Japanese army, it doesn't matter whether they go south or north, the Kwantung Army is organizing troops to go south to help fight in the South Seas, and my troops landing in Korea are actually containing the Kwantung Army in disguise, and they can't wait for the Thunder to go north." Zhao Zhi seems to have touched the pulse of the US military, and he has no doubt about this.

"When I helped the Nationalist Government fight Shandong, I already had an agreement with them that my troops could be stationed and rested in Jiaodong at any time, and all the materials that needed to be consumed in the operation were Thunder's own, why should they oppose it." Regarding Zhao Zhi's explanation, Hunter can only praise Zhao Zhi as an old fox-like guy, I am afraid that he had already thought of a plan to cross the sea and land in North Korea when he attacked Jiaodong, otherwise why would he have to station troops in Jiaodong.

"But if this plan is to be successfully completed, I'm afraid I need your help." Zhao Zhi took out another piece of paper and handed it to Hunter, "You only brought the traffic control documents of Thailand and Vietnam this time, but I now need the traffic control documents of Jeju Island, which need to have the seal of the North Korean royal family and the circumstantial seal of your US government, you are now a member of Congress, and it is most appropriate for you to handle this matter." Remember, you only have a month to convince the die-hard politicians in Congress, or my plan will change a little bit, and maybe all of the Thunder's troops will stay in Burma to recuperate. ”

Zhao Zhi did not deliberately want to embarrass Khante, Jeju Island was a plan proposed by the Americans themselves, and it was precisely because of the fact that Thunder defeated the Japanese army in Burma twice that the American troops on the Nanyang battlefield had a slightly better life, if it were not for the Shandong cross-cutting plan led by Zhao Zhi, perhaps a large number of Japanese troops heading south would have driven the American troops on the Nanyang battlefield into the sea to feed the fish. If you do your job, you have to get money, this is the creed of mercenaries, not to mention that Zhao Zhi is still very useful with Jeju Island, he wants to turn Jeju Island into a bridgehead and attack the bridgehead of the Japanese mainland.

The U.S. Congress has promised to provide at least 30 B-29 bombers to Zhao Zhi, plus the existing 10 B-29s, 20 B-25s, and 20 B-17 bombers in the Thunder, Zhao Zhi can transfer at least 60 bombers to Jeju Island. Compared with the 334 B-29 bombers organized by the US military in the previous life to bomb Japan, Zhao Zhi's 60 bombers are nothing at all, but the bombing campaign that Zhao Zhi wants to carry out can continue until Japan surrenders.

I believe that there is no need for Zhao Zhiduo to say what it means to destroy the military industry in Japan, and the politicians in the US Congress also know that cutting off the Japanese army's logistical hematopoietic function is far more important than defeating several Japanese divisions, and perhaps the US military can also send some bombers to participate in the bombing operation at that time.
