Tu three cannons. The name arrived in the United States a few years ago. That was one of the key figures mentioned in the report sent back by Eisenhower, who was still observing the war situation in China.

"The man who hides behind the tiger is a man whose light has been overshadowed by his own son. He has a strategic mindset that is not inferior to that of his son, and he has an extremely accurate view of any weapon, even the latest ones. ”

"I can't forget that when he first saw the tank, he had already roughly described the ways to deal with tanks on the battlefield, and these methods proved to be effective in later Wehrmacht operations."

"This bandit-turned-general is also one of the people in the entire three eastern provincial governments that I can't accurately assess and speculate. He seems to be a little irritable, but when it comes to his fighting style, he is extremely calm. He seems to be reckless in every move, but the strategic and tactical results he achieves are excellent. ”

"He doesn't have much ambition, he doesn't care if he commands the army, how much power he has, etc. But that doesn't stop him from having a strong charisma and leadership. ”

He had not studied it in detail, and even his knowledge of the language of his own country was limited. But this did not prevent him from having a great talent for languages, and I have seen him speak fluent Russian with the Soviet generals who came to negotiate. He was even able to speak several local dialects in China. ”

“…… All in all, this is a military general with strong tactics, strategic thinking, charisma, and strong leadership......"

This is what Eisenhower mentioned in his report to the War Department. His report caused a discussion in the War Department. And Tu Sanpao has since come into their sight.

Subsequently. All kinds of information about the gun master were gathered in the Ministry of War. Even Colt, who had a close personal relationship with the gun master, was found by the War Department and stated what he knew about the situation of Tu Sancang.

Today, the father and son are at the top of the list of Chinese generals that the U.S. War Department focuses on researching. The rest included Yan Chenghan, commander of the Second Group Army of the National Defense Forces, who was now commanding the defense of Nanjing, and Lu Han, commander of the 60th Group Army, who broke through the Japanese encirclement in Wuhan, and a large number of officers with actual combat experience who had defeated Japanese troops at the same time.

The combat examples of these people have been put into the rehearsal room of the U.S. Army Military Academy countless times, and they have repeatedly re-deduced and studied them, in order to truly judge the extent of the Wehrmacht's combat strength.

"Commander of Army Aviation of the United States of America, Henry Brown. Harry. Arnold salutes you! Dear General! Suddenly, the major general named "Johnson" gave a military salute to the slaughtered tiger and said loudly.

"Aren't you called Johnson?!" Tu Laohu smiled and gave him a military salute back.

"General, this is a disguise to keep my identity from being revealed. My real identity is that of the Commander of Army Aviation. Checkmate! Arnold smiled and said, "This is a requirement of the Ministry of War, and as a soldier, I can only carry it out." ”

Tu Laohu smiled in understanding. After all, the United States and the Soviet Union are not allies now, and it is normal for them to guard against each other on certain issues.

"General, I will escort you and the delegation to Washington for the rest of the journey." Arnold smiled. And then he said, "There, President Roosevelt is already waiting for you." ”

"Hard!" Tu Lao Hu smiled and said to Arnold.

And at this time, there was a gloomy fog in the White House. The United States did not expect the war situation in Europe to become like this. The Germans had entered Belgium, and the main forces of France were almost incapacitated.

According to the latest situation report, the armored forces of the Germans had crossed the Ardennes Forest to reach and force their way across the Maas. A powerful encirclement had taken shape, and at the same time the German air power and tanks had a huge advantage.

"George, how long do you think the French will be able to hold out?!" Roosevelt looked at the report and sighed helplessly, he did not expect that France would be so vulnerable when it gathered a large number of troops, including the Belgian, Dutch and even British expeditionary forces.

It has been less than a week since the German attack was launched. The Netherlands has fallen. Belgium is also on the verge of falling. And France itself is also under threat.

Having lost air power and a large number of tanks, Roosevelt thought he could not see that France was capable of continuing to fight. They may be able to survive for a while, but in the end they will not be able to escape defeat.

"Your Excellency, although I don't want to admit it, the fact is that the French can't hold out for ten days." Army Chief of Staff George Brown. Cartwright. Marshall looked at the information and whispered to Roosevelt.

"They have lost the ability to continue fighting. If you hold on, you may be able to hold on for about 10 days. But if the Germans attack too fiercely and the French make a strategic mistake, the war will end in a week at most......"

After a pause, Marshall looked up at Roosevelt and said cautiously: "If the war goes well, maybe the next step for the Germans is the English Channel......

Roosevelt smiled wryly. Even so, for a time, the United States had no way to participate in the war. On the one hand, there is the question of America's own preparation, and secondly, there is the prevailing attitude of isolationism among the population.

"George, you need to pay close attention to the war in Europe. If you have any questions, feel free to come to me. Roosevelt commanded Marshall, then took a deep breath.

"Next, I'm going to meet with the tiger from Asia for the good of America." Listening to Roosevelt's words, Marshall said with a little interest.

"Mr. President, in fact, I am interested in the general as well. In Ike's report, the general was an excellent soldier who could even go down in history. ”

Marshall paused and said with a smile: "I know that Ike never makes judgments about someone easily, but he admires this general so much, and he must admire this general's war literacy." ”

Marshall's words made Roosevelt fall into memory for a moment, and he remembered that he had visited Ge Yuetan with the tiger on his last visit to the three eastern provinces.

The tiger was indeed a man who was easy to believe, and his eyes were bright. It's as bright as twinkling stars. It is said that he was very loyal to his love, and he did not marry again after his wife died in childbirth.

I've never even heard of him having an affair with any woman. As long as you know this person called Sancang, whether it is Ge Yuetan, a figure like an immortal, or a high-ranking political official like Yan Zhengqing, who is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, they all express their incomparable admiration for his personality and quality.

"I don't know his command and combat ability, because I'm not a soldier after all." Roosevelt smiled and said to Marshall, "But he does have a very high personal charm and excellent qualities. This is what I learned from my contact with him and from others. ”

Marshall had already attached great importance to Eisenhower's various reports, and after hearing the president's evaluation, he was even more interested in the Cannon himself.

"Your Excellency, I hope to meet with this general if I can." Marshall said softly, "I have to see this person in person to be able to make an accurate judgment." ”

Roosevelt was talking to Marshall, and the white-bearded Situ Meitang in the Hall of the Zhi Gong Hall looked solemn. In front of him was a group of murderous men.

These are the strongest men selected by thousands of people in the North American Zhigong Court.

"The commander-in-chief's father, that is, the devil who killed in North Korea and Shandong, is coming to the United States." Situ Meitang didn't talk nonsense, and said directly to the men below.

"Here, and Mrs. Song. They have come to the United States this time with an important mission, for our motherland and for our nation! I promised the Commander-in-Chief that anyone who wanted to hurt them would first step on me, an old man! ”

"I'm an old man, and I may not be able to withstand this stormy sea. And you, on our behalf, will defend the court! Remember, they are the backbone of our country! They are the backbone of our nation! Even if it's a hair, it's not missing! ”

"Yes!!" The men shouted loudly. Then a strong man brought a large jar of wine to fill the bowls in front of them.

"Go to the soup and fight the fire, and never give up!!"

China, the imperial capital.

Tu Menghu was frowning and looking at the map, the Japanese army was now entrenched on the front line of Zhengzhou. The troops that had been isolated in Xuchang had withdrawn to Zhengzhou under the cover of the 17th Group Army.

Due to the arrival of the 17th Army, the Japanese army did not launch another large-scale offensive. And the 17th Army did not directly launch a strong attack on the Japanese army, they were waiting for the First Army to arrive from Shandong.

At that time, the two sides jointly launched an attack on the Central China Front and completely destroyed it. At the same time, the Seventh Army of the National Defense Air Force, under the command of Commander Su Yingxiang, was moving towards Luoyang.

Luoyang's airport was built a long time ago, and it could be used after being repaired by Fu Zuoyi and others.

They were also waiting for the end of the air force transition before launching a full-scale attack on the Japanese after receiving strong air support.

It's not that Matsui Ishone is unaware of the Wehrmacht's ideas, but he doesn't have a better way at the moment. He couldn't come up with any other battle plan other than waiting for the support of the base camp.

Advance?! I'm afraid it will be surrounded by the Wehrmacht. Back off?! The base camp is definitely not allowed.

Fu Zuoyi's department, which was ready to attack and was supported by the 17th Group Army?! That didn't do anything, it was just a waste of troops.

The battlefield was in a strange stalemate, but Matsui knew that if the war broke out again, the Central China Front would face a test of life and death......
