At the meeting of the official residence of Chairman Jiang of Huangshan in Chongqing, Dai Li, director of the Military Command Bureau, although he did not reach the shocking Cheng Dù, was also unexpected, naturally, it was difficult to convince the public, and the members who attended the meeting already had a plan in their hearts, and later, if you Dai Yunong said it, if it is untenable, then I am sorry, and I will definitely refute your incomplete and gray face!

It's not that we don't care about the friendship of our colleagues, you look at Chairman Chiang's expression, and he is also surprised, sure enough, Chairman Chiang said suspiciously: "Yu Nong, your words are inevitably a bit arbitrary, the war situation in Australia is extremely unfavorable to the British, more than 300,000 Japanese troops have landed on the island, victory after victory, and the loss of Australia is imminent, I think, the Americans are not so confused, I would like to hear it, the reason and basis for your judgment?" ”

Dai Li secretly sneered in his heart, "All the sanctimonious guys are waiting to attack me, don't you know, in terms of intelligence resources, you are comparable to me!" Now that the words have arrived here, it is necessary to disclose some inside information, otherwise, it will be difficult to convince everyone, especially Chairman Jiang! ”

Dai Li replied quietly: "It's the principal, the student will explain, the principal, the intelligence system of the national government has been paying attention to the war situation in the southwest Pacific, and on 25 August, Vice Chairman Tang's troops dispatched more than 1,500 fighters and bombers to escort the 100,000 British and Australian troop transport convoys that evacuated Luzon Island and returned to Australia. ”

"100,000 British and Australian soldiers landed safely in Australia, so that the British defense in Australia was greatly strengthened, and now, more than 200,000 American and Filipino troops on Luzon Island were fiercely attacked by the Japanese Fourteenth Army. With heavy losses and the imminent loss of Manila, the Americans had to seek a way out to avoid being wiped out by the Japanese on Luzon. ”

"It is well known that the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy has blocked the passage of the American mainland to the southwest Pacific Ocean, and the Pacific Fleet of the Americans, since the total destruction of Midway. I can't afford to come up with a decent escort fleet, and if I want to withdraw to Australia, I can only turn to Vice Chairman Tang for help, not to mention, since I escorted the British once. Then why not escort the Americans. So. The students judged that the ambassadors of the United States and Britain can only be for this purpose! ”

Dai Li's speech was extremely skillful, and he did not say that the intelligence system of the Military Administration was paying attention to the situation in the Southwest Pacific, but that the intelligence system of the national government was concerned. This avoids the situation of arousing people's envy, and the two major intelligence systems of the state government, one is the Central Unified Bureau, the other is the Military Unified Bureau, and what kind of virtue is the Central Unified Bureau now. Everyone knows very well that the gang that occupies the pit and does not is no longer in the limelight. ended up in a lingering ending.

Therefore, on the battlefield in the southwest and the Pacific, the only person who can obtain effective information is the Military Command Bureau, and there is no other semicolon.

In terms of commanding and fighting wars, Dai Li's ability may not be much better than that of a regiment commander of the Central Army, but this does not prevent him from grasping the latest changes in the battle situation in the southwest Pacific theater.

It is a pity that Chairman Chiang has little interest in wars that take place outside the country, and there is no need for the chamberlain to bother the old man, so it is reasonable that Chairman Chiang does not know about this.

Hey, Dai Li's well-organized, reasoned and well-founded analysis immediately impressed these big officials, this big spy leader who only knows how to listen to the corners of the wall, make small reports, and have a black hand behind his back, and this hand, even better than those Qiu Ba who led the troops, has a clear and thorough understanding of the war situation in the Southwest Pacific, damn it, this Dai Yunong, really showed a pair of small hands in front of Chairman Jiang!

Chairman Jiang had completely believed in Dai Li's judgment, and the doubts in his heart were gone, and a smile appeared on his face, and he said: "What Yu Nong said is very true, and his views are extremely correct, the Americans are cornered, in the end, they still come to beg us Chinese, hum, they also have this day!" At this moment, Chairman Jiang forgot about the contradiction between him and Tang Qiuli, and there was a slight sense of pride in his heart!

Since even Chairman Jiang affirmed Dai Yunong's statement, then this must be true, the brains of several military officials are alive, and Xue Yue, who is known as the "tiger boy", Huo Ran got up and said: "Chairman, I think that this is an opportunity, why don't we send a fighter squadron to participate in this mission to escort the US army, first, we can raise the military prestige of our Central Army, and second, we can vigorously display the image of the national government in front of the allies!" ”

As a matter of fact, Chairman Chiang did not want to take this opportunity to make a magnificent appearance in front of the allies, and as soon as he made a move, he would come to give him a thunderstorm, but after careful consideration, there were many concerns and risks.

Didn't you listen to what Dai Li said, Tang Qiuli actually dispatched more than 1,500 planes, what a big formation, as far as the more than 500 fighters of the Central Army, even if they rushed over, they also participated in the escort, and it was not mainly Tang Qiuli, I contributed to Tang Qiuli, how could it be necessary, in case of loss, it would be more than worth the loss, if the loss was too great, his blood for several years would be ruined.

In case Tang Qiuli becomes greedy and detains the plane, wouldn't he be a loser of his old roots, thinking about it, it would be better not to move, and not to prevent the Americans and the British from meeting Tang Qiuli, it would be enough!

Chairman Jiang already had a plan in his heart, and said to Xue Yue with a smile: "Boling, don't be impatient, it's not easy for the Nationalist Government to accumulate some military strength, and about participating in overseas wars, we will have the opportunity to discuss it again in the future, okay, dismiss the meeting, and go to work!" ”

This is the British and American envoys, the decision to meet with Tang Qiuli, the difficult process, if Taoerman and Sicordias knew that the decision of this meeting was so difficult and tortuous, they would definitely shout that it was not easy to come by!

On the morning of 27 August, in the office of division commander Tang Qiuli of the Singapore Military Control Commission building, Vice Admiral Tang Qiuquan, commander of the independent division's fleet, Lieutenant General Zhang Quan, director of the division's logistics department, Major General Wang Xu, director of the Military Industry Bureau of the Dingbian Special Economic Zone and director of the Special Equipment Research Institute, Lieutenant General Tang Qiusheng, deputy division commander, and Major General Zhao Yuhe, chief of staff, were chatting cordially together.

Tang Qiuli said with a smile: "Uncle Quan, Brother Qiuquan, Wang Xu, when you arrived in Singapore, how did you rest, do you still like this place?" ”

Tang Qiuquan and Wang Xu both nodded reservedly, but Zhang Quan said with dissatisfaction: "I said Xiaoqiu, what is the important thing to recruit us here?" Don't you know, I'm a big mess, more than a million people need to eat and drink, guns and cannonballs need bullets and shells, planes, tanks, vehicles need gasoline and diesel, Zhou Yushan alone can't do it! ”

After a pause, Zhang Quan continued: "If you want to talk about this place in Singapore, I am not very proud, fart big place, humid and stuffy, panting smell of oysters, which is like our hometown Shandong, at a glance, the mountains are mountains, the river is the river, the heart is clear, I am not used to living, I am not used to living, it is better to stay comfortable in Kunming, if there is something to say, stay in this place for a few days, I can't stand this old bone!" ”

Everyone laughed, and even Tang Qiusheng, who never liked to joke, joked unprecedentedly: "Uncle Quan, what you said is not true, in terms of your body, you are tougher than us young people, and you followed the division commander from the northeast to the Indochina Peninsula, your spiritual leader, when did you get worse, I think, you are afraid that Vice Minister Zhou will not be able to control the pass, and will be taken advantage of by the corps, don't worry, so you are in a hurry to go back!" Who doesn't know you're a famous tiger! ”

Everyone laughed again, and Zhang Quan said angrily: "You boys, if it weren't for my Zhang Laohan, who was the housekeeper for you, how much silver would not be able to stand up to your defeat, especially Xiaoqiu, who splashed out like hundreds of thousands of oceans of water at every turn, and I don't know how distressed I would spend money, and the wind is blowing?" If I hadn't been holding on and saving, you would have had to drink the northwest wind sooner or later! ”

Tang Qiuli scratched his head, there was a feeling that he was shot while lying down, yes, Brother Qiusheng said a few words, and poked Uncle Quan's lung tube, thinking about it, he didn't have much concept of money, every time he used a large amount of money, Uncle Quan strictly checked it, for fear of wasting it, and it was really thanks to the old man, otherwise, he might not be able to make ends meet! Raising soldiers, raising soldiers, what do you have to raise if you don't have money?

The old man complained a few words, it is normal, more than one million troops, personnel and equipment required, is a huge astronomical number, plus the troops of the independent division, the farthest north to Outer Mongolia, south to the Indochina Peninsula, west to the Indian mainland, not only to be comprehensive, but also to be treated differently, logistics scheduling, is the most tiring work, Tang Qiuli hurriedly reviewed, "Uncle Quan's criticism is right, and then use the funds in the future, your old man says as much as it is, I will never pressure you to approve!" ”

Zhang Quan stroked the gray short stubble with satisfaction, smiled proudly, glanced at Tang Qiuli, the look in his eyes, and said clearly, "Count you kid acquaintance!" ”

Immediately, he urged eagerly: "Xiaoqiu, what the hell is going on, don't play dumb riddles!" ”

Tang Qiuli's face turned pale, and he pretended to be stern and said: "Summoning everyone to Singapore is a big deal to do!" ”
