"Bait, bait, do you know? The Burmese mercenary troops under your command are the bait, from now on you have to command the troops to attack Baoding with great fanfare, if the Japanese army ignores it, you continue to go north after taking Baoding, and I will arrange transport planes to airdrop supplies for you. The cannon roared outside, but there was silence in Zhao Zhi's temporary headquarters, Xiao Ziyun, who had been urgently recalled from the Binzhou front just now, was standing in front of Zhao Zhi at this time, and the latter was scolding Xiao Ziyun like an angry lion.

Okamura Ningji, who had been missing for several days, suddenly appeared near Shijiazhuang with his troops, and the commander of the team who commanded 30,000 Burmese mercenary troops to besiege Baoding ordered the troops to retreat, which was the consistent style of the national army to preserve its strength, but this angered Zhao Zhi. The Burmese are not Chinese, and Zhao Zhi used their original intention not only to resist the Japanese army, but also to wear out the young and strong men in Myanmar little by little, but the commander who commanded the 30,000 Burmese mercenaries ordered to shrink the defensive line and retreat.

If the Baoding Japanese puppet army has the space and opportunity to survive, and Okamura Ningci, who stayed in Shijiazhuang, will inevitably take the opportunity to move south, then the several interception lines arranged by Zhao Zhi on the line of Xingtai and Hengshui may collapse, which will lead to the failure of the plan to cross Shandong. Recall Xiao Ziyun who appeared in Binzhou is Zhao Zhi's decision after careful consideration, among the young staff officers sent by the national government, Xiao Ziyun is the most tenacious one, and he is also the best one in playing tactics against the enemy, but Xiao Ziyun is now saying that the cost of using 30,000 Burmese mercenaries to lure the enemy is too great, how can this not make Zhao Zhi angry.

"What did I take great pains to mobilize so many troops from Burma to return to China to participate in the war, don't say you don't know, if you can't stand these Burmese people fighting with the Japanese army, then okay, you go and tell the Ministry of Military Affairs yourself, and ask them to mobilize the national army to come up and fight the Japanese army." Looking at Xiao Ziyun, who was like a stubborn donkey, Zhao Zhi hated to kick this kid to Vietnam immediately, "Those Burmese people are people, could it be that your compatriots of General Xiao are not people?" If you'd rather fill this hole with the lives of your own compatriots than be used as bait by the Burmese troops, then well, the Thunder doesn't welcome you, so you can go back to the country. ”

Zhao Zhi was already disappointed in Xiao Ziyun, but when he turned around, Xiao Ziyun, who had been bowing his head and not saying a word, was already crying. The Burmese troops besieging Baoding asked Xiao Ziyun when they retreated, and the order to shrink the defensive line was also under Xiao Ziyun, the young and vigorous Xiao Ziyun was already outstanding compared with other peers, coupled with his identity as a side branch of the Jiang family, Xiao Ziyun, who led 300,000 troops, was already a little fluttering.

Although the 300,000 Burmese mercenaries are not all tough and obedient, but the 300,000 troops are already stronger than the strength of any commander of the national army theater. What does Zhao Zhi have, isn't it just that he relied on the thousands of mercenaries and 100,000 Jewish troops under his hands to build his prestige, Zhao Zhi is about the same age as himself, he can do what he can do, and the troops under his hands are much more than when Zhao Zhi started.

It is with this kind of psychology that Xiao Ziyun, who is far away on the front line of Binzhou, gave the order to shrink the siege defense line of Baoding, and when the order was given, Xiao Ziyun did not think about Zhao Zhi's reaction, but he did not expect that Zhao Zhi's reaction would be so great, and he would directly send Yan Wudao to personally bring a team of mercenaries to bring him to Texas. On the plane flying to Texas, Xiao Ziyun was still comforting himself, he knew that Zhao Zhi was a lover of talents, and he shouldn't do anything to himself, at most, he just scolded him, but he didn't expect Zhao Zhi to expel himself from the thunder now, which was a big deal.

Xiao Ziyun squeezed his eyes at Luo Ying, who had always been good friends with him, and motioned to the latter to say a few good words for him, knowing that Luo Ying was one of the most trusted people around Zhao Zhi, and his words should have some weight. But no matter how Xiao Ziyun signaled, Luo Ying just stood there without saying a word, and didn't even make eye contact with Xiao Ziyun. It's bad, Xiao Ziyun secretly screamed in his heart, he only remembered that Luo Ying was a person trusted by Zhao Zhi, but he forgot that Luo Ying had always been obedient to Zhao Zhi, and he violated Zhao Zhi's orders this time, so he couldn't say that Luo Ying had hated himself.

Sure enough, just as Zhao Zhi picked up his cigar and smoked, Luo Ying, who had been silent, stepped forward and stretched out his arm to Xiao Ziyun, "Staff Officer Xiao, Mr. said, let you leave Thunder immediately, please." Luo Ying's face had no expression at all, which made Xiao Ziyun's heart sink to the bottom in an instant, and he had the heart to explain to Zhao Zhi, but the two mercenaries at the gate of the headquarters didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and directly grabbed his arm and dragged Xiao Ziyun out.

"Is this necessary, sir? Wouldn't it be okay to replace him, Xiao Ziyun is still a relative of the chairman after all, will we do this to make the chairman have ideas? Ye Kong, who was nesting in the corner of the headquarters, said lazily. He didn't know much about this Xiao Ziyun, but he was just talking about things, there were many factions in the Nationalist Government, and without the support of Chiang Kai-shek, many of Zhao Zhi's plans could not be implemented smoothly at all.

Zhao Zhi didn't answer Ye Kong's question directly, but paced around the room a few times with a cigar in his mouth before he spoke, "When Xiao Ziyun was chosen to be in charge of the Burmese mercenary troops, it was just because he had some ability to lead troops, anyway, those Burmese people were also used as cannon fodder, even if they were exhausted, they would not feel distressed." But he shouldn't have a mind that he shouldn't think, the current situation is so good, it is a good time to find trouble with the Japanese army, if the Japanese army is left with a chance to breathe because of a little personal care, then the foreshadowing we did in the early stage will be in vain. ”

"Chairman Chiang is a man of great spirits, he probably won't make us evil for the sake of just Xiao Ziyun, and besides, we didn't get a penny from him for participating in the war, if he is not happy, we will go back to Burma to help the Americans fight in South Asia, and we may get more things." Yan Wudao is from a country of rivers and lakes, he and Yu Dazhi have long regarded Zhao Zhi as the leading brother, Xiao Ziyun disobeyed Zhao Zhi's order, in Yan Wudao's heart, Xiao Ziyun is no longer a thunderous person, and it is naturally not necessary to give a good face to such a person.

"Wudao is only half right," Zhao Zhi affirmed Yan Wudao's words, "It is precisely with the dispatch of US troops in South Asia that the Nationalist Government sees the possibility and opportunity to take the Japanese army out of China, and our Thunder is now the main force they rely on, if we go back to Burma now, the most anxious thing is the Nationalist Government and Chairman Chiang himself, so they will never allow a Xiao Ziyun to spoil a good thing, not that we will do something ugly for them, but that they are afraid of doing evil to us." ”

Zhao Zhi's words made Ye Kong put his heart down, it was not easy for Thunder to appear in this situation, although Ye Kong didn't know what Zhao Zhi's ultimate purpose was, but he knew that every step of Zhao Zhi's plan was related, and a mistake in one of the links would inevitably cause it difficult to continue with other plans. "Send Xiao Ziyun back to Chongqing directly by plane and hand him over to the villa on the south bank, ask the chairman to solve the matter himself, and by the way, contact the Mary next to his wife, and ask when the next batch of aid will arrive, and say that Vietnam's seaport is already under our control."

Joey's armored corps has crossed Cambodia from Long Tram into Vietnam and is now heading towards the Vietnamese port city of Vung Tau, and if all goes well, Zhao expects Joey's command vehicle to appear in Vung Tau in four days. The seizure of the port in Vietnam was a secret order from Zhao Zhi to Joey, and the 100,000 Jewish reservists trained by Yu Dazhi had entered Thailand in batches, and the 50,000 Burmese guerrillas trained by Yu Dazhi were sold before the Jewish reservists, and their targets were Cambodia, which had been cross-cut by Joey.

However, after listening to the opinions of professors and scholars at the Southwest Associated University, Zhao Zhi immediately issued a bounty order to the Burmese guerrillas. Including Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, the 50,000 Burmese guerrillas who set out in advance entered these three places and received military merits by killing, and when the military merits accumulated to a certain extent, they could exchange food and materials from the hands of Thunder, as long as there was something in the market, their military merits could be exchanged, including women, weapons and ammunition.

Human greed is endless, as long as the Burmese benefit from the killing, their killing will continue endlessly, perhaps without Zhao Zhi's cleansing of these three places, 50,000 Burmese who have been armed to the teeth can kill all of them. What Zhao Zhi needs is resources and space, those local talents who live in the mountains and forests all year round are not what he wants, and there are Burmese people to help, why not do it.

"Niang Xipi, you still have the face to come back, Boyuan can't command you anymore, and I can't either, you can go wherever you want." Xiao Ziyun, who was sent back to Chongqing by special plane, was kicked out of the South Bank villa by Chiang Kai-shek's guards before he woke up. Xiao Ziyun was kicked out, but Chiang Kai-shek's anger was not over, "What is not a weapon, send him to Boyuan to learn skills, you see what he has become now." Yang Fengyin disobeyed Boyuan's order and dared to order the withdrawal of the army without authorization, bold, bold, if it weren't for Boyuan thinking about calming things down, I would have shot him directly. ”

"Alright, alright, dissipate the anger, Rowling will be a guest in a while, don't scare her." Looking at Chiang Kai-shek, who was angry and jumping, Song Meiling had no choice but to persuade her, but Song Meiling was also angry with Xiao Ziyun, and she was a little uneasy about what good things she could do with the guys from the Ministry of Military Affairs.
