Chapter 114: Promotions and Commendations
The defeat in Burma, with 100,000 expeditionary troops going out and losing most of them, made the bald man even more sad and strengthened his determination to send troops abroad to fight. It's just that in the face www.biquge.info of pressure from the Americans, he is a little overwhelmed.
Now, the war situation in Myanmar has undergone a shocking reversal, which makes the bald head very surprised.
"Commission, according to the information we have received, the unit that eliminated the two divisions of the Japanese army is a unit called the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army." He Jingzhi continued.
"Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army?" The bald man frowned, he had never heard of the name of this unit.
"What kind of troops are they?" Guan asked.
"According to the understanding, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army is a unit composed of a broken army of the expeditionary force. On the battlefield in Burma, they gathered the defeated troops, rescued the soldiers captured by the Japanese army, and recruited troops from the local Chinese, which has now grown to more than 100,000 people. He Jingzhi reported all the information he learned.
"Is it our people? It has actually grown to more than 100,000? The bald head was greatly excited, but then, his face became a little unsightly.
"Mother, Xipi! Since it is a member of the expeditionary force, why change the name? Is this to establish one's own name and betray the party-state? The bald head immediately scolded.
I have to admit that the bald head can become the leader of this country, and there is no doubt about his personal ability. Just from the name of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, all speculations are inseparable.
He Jingzhi lowered his head and didn't answer. And this makes the bald head think that what he guessed is true.
"Jingzhi, what the hell is going on?"
"Commission, according to the information we have learned, the commander of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, named Qin Shou, is a son of the Qin family in the southwest. Although it is a descendant, it is not too core. This year, he is only 22 years old and graduated from West Point. After returning home, his father left the relationship and was stuffed into the expeditionary force as the commander of the supplementary regiment of the 200th Division.
At the time of the great retreat, their regiment was ordered to take on the task of blocking the attack. Everyone knows that this is a life-and-death mission. But unexpectedly, they not only succeeded in blocking the Japanese * himself, bought enough time for the main force to retreat, and now they have developed into such a powerful force. ”
He Jingzhi sighed, if he knew that Qin Shou had such ability, he should not have led his troops to stop the Japanese army in the first place.
The bald head also understood everything, although, he knew the dissatisfaction in Qin Shou's heart. However, he still thinks that Qin Shou's betrayal of the party-state like this is unacceptable.
"As a member of the party-state, he should obey orders, and even if he is dissatisfied, he can appeal. Now, it is really an unforgivable crime to want to betray the party-state, and it should be tried by a military court and dealt with in accordance with military law. The bald head said angrily.
It's just that everyone knows that the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army is now in Burma, even if they want to judge Qin Shou, they have to go to Myanmar! However, the national * army in Myanmar has no strength at all, so what can be used to judge Qin Shou?
"Yes, the Americans seem to be very interested in the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. I got the news that Stilwell had already transported a large number of supplies and was ready to fully support the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. It is foreseeable that with the support of the Americans, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will develop even stronger. When the time comes, they will fight to the death with the Japanese army on the battlefield in Burma. He Jingzhi said.
"Humph! Stupid fellow, did he think that the aid of the Americans was so easy to take? The Americans are not just using them as cannon fodder. If he really wants to serve the country, the people, and the party-state, he should bring the troops back to China. I, Jiang someone, will I treat him badly? "The bald head felt very uncomfortable when he thought that so many elite soldiers would fight to the death with the Japanese army in Southeast Asia, or even be wiped out. It's as if the army commanded by Qin Shou should belong to him.
This is mainly because after the fall of Burma, the Yunnan-Burma road was cut off, and the Japanese offensive on the Chinese battlefield became more fierce. And the frontal battlefield in which the national army is in charge undoubtedly feels more pressure.
Although the national army is strong, the combat effectiveness of those troops is so bad that they are in urgent need of reinforcements on the battlefield. The bald head is already very anxious for this.
Since the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army was able to completely annihilate two divisions of the Japanese army one after another, if such a unit was placed on the domestic battlefield, how much effect would it play! When I think of this, it's a pity to be bald.
"Commission, then what should we do with the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army?" He Jingzhi asked.
The bald head couldn't help frowning, if it was according to his character and thoughts, he would definitely be severely punished by the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. However, in the face of now, this is certainly not possible. On the one hand, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army is abroad, and they are beyond their reach. On the other hand, the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army was supported by the Americans, although the bald head was very dissatisfied with the Americans. However, at this stage they cannot do without the support of the Americans. It is even hoped that one day it will continue to receive support from the Americans.
"Weiwen, what do you suggest?" The bald head asked.
"Commission, according to the humble position, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army and Qin Shou not only cannot be punished, but also rewarded." Lin Weiwen said.
"Oh? Why? ”
"At this stage, the expeditionary force has suffered heavy losses, and we can no longer afford to send the expeditionary force to Burma. However, the Americans are aggressive and even threaten us with aid. If the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army can take over the war in Burma, then the Americans will not have to trouble us anymore.
Moreover, if the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army really defeated the Japanese themselves with the support of the Americans. Then, they will definitely develop very strong. When the time comes, the commissioner can use a little means to recall them back to the country to serve. In that case, our strength will be further improved, and defeating the Japanese army and pacifying the country will no longer be a problem. Lin Weiwen suggested.
After listening to Lin Weiwen's suggestion, the bald head fell into deep thought, and after a while, he nodded: "Let's do it, the promotion of stingy to lieutenant general of the army, his chief of staff Liu Shiquan is a major general of the army, and several regiment commanders have been promoted to colonels." Also, send them a telegram of commendation to reward them for their victory on the battlefield in Burma. By the way, the Qin family, especially Qin Shou's parents, should also be commended. Send someone to meet him again and find a way to win him over! ”
The bald head does this, undoubtedly wanting to obtain the maximum benefit at the lowest cost. If Qin Shou and the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army can be used for their own purposes, it will undoubtedly be the best.
Therefore, Qin Shou unknowingly became the youngest general in the national * army, or a twenty-two-year-old lieutenant general, which is definitely a three-level promotion in a row, breaking the record.
