Chapter 421
"The meeting time is set at nine o'clock in the evening, and now the commanders of all units are basically in place, just send your Southern Route Army, I really don't understand which of your kid's tendons is wrong, and you have to be willing to go near and far if you don't sit on the plane......
Sun Liren walked in front with his hands behind his back, joking with a calm expression.
After talking, I learned that Liao Mingyu actually came by car from Myanmar, and it took more than ten hours.
"Hehe... The main reason is that there are no transport planes at our Nankan airport, and the time is similar to driving if you arrange it, so you just ..."
Liao Mingyu, who had a sense of fear of airplanes, could only smile bitterly at this, and randomly found a reason to prevaricate in the past.
"The main purpose of this meeting is to discuss the plan of action for the next war against Japan, and the position of your Southern Route Army is very important, and you can actively propose it at the meeting, and strive to move south as soon as possible before the Japanese react."
"But then again, the entire expeditionary force belongs to your honorary third division, and my brothers are looking forward to cooperating with you."
"Haha, General Sun has won the award, I can't ask for it, the Japanese have bullied me too much, it's time for them to pay for their blood debts." The corners of Liao Mingyu's mouth were slightly raised, and his expression was extremely firm.
Sun Liren nodded, with a little appreciation in his eyes, the two of them talked happily like friends who hadn't seen each other for many years, and even the accompanying guards around them were puzzled, was this still their unsmiling general?
Maybe... This is the sympathy between two predators.
"It's a pity that the voice in the country is not very unified, and it is really disappointing to stop at this juncture, resulting in a missed opportunity!"
Liao Mingyu said thoughtfully, what he was talking about was the counterattack on Burma some time ago, but the top brass of the Kuomintang Party was unwilling to invest more troops.
As soon as the battle of Myitkyina ended, it was ready to be stopped. If it weren't for the excitement of many generals in western Yunnan and Stilwell's strong pressure, perhaps even this military meeting would have been dismissed.
The bald head is still bent on solving domestic problems first, and is unwilling to spend money in Myanmar to make wedding dresses for Britain and the United States.
"I don't understand politics, and I don't bother to think about it so much, as a soldier, it's good to be able to do my part for the country and the nation!"
Sun Liren waved his hand, indicating that he didn't want to discuss those things, his idea was simple, as a professional soldier, doing his best to fight foreign enemies was the most important thing.
"The general is really arrogant, he is really a model for my generation, and the younger brother has been taught." Liao Mingyu smiled slightly and patted his fart.
"Heh... What is not exemplary, others will only say that I am a monster, and it is too late to avoid it. ”
Sun Liren shook his head indifferently, raised his head and pointed to the side room next to him:
"You guys should rest here first, the meeting will start in two hours, and someone will come over to arrange it then."
"Okay, thank you General for leading the way."
"Rest well."
Sun Liren glanced at Liao Mingyu deeply, nodded and then turned around and left.
Meng rolled his eyes in annoyance, and ran over to gossip in a smug manner: "Junzuo, he is the commander of the New First Army?" I heard that 80% of the battles of the army stationed in India were fought by their army, good guy, this leader is almost a head higher than me......"
In this era when the general height is less than 1.7 meters, there are indeed very few people who can grow to 1.85 meters.
"People used to play basketball and participated in the Far Eastern Games, and they were still high-achieving students who graduated from Tsinghua University, what do you think?"
Looking at the resolute back, Liao Mingyu fell into contemplation and sighing, although it was only a short contact of about ten minutes, he could also feel the mind and courage of this famous general of the Anti-Japanese War.
Strictly speaking, Sun Liren can be regarded as a tragic hero, and he has indeed sat up straight in his life, but this also laid the groundwork for the tragedy of the rest of his life.
His straightforward and straightforward personality was incompatible with his fellow Kuomintang, and he was not very popular in military circles, and was even often deliberately harassed by some colleagues.
After all, in the military circles of the Kuomintang and the military, where there are many factions, everyone will be gregarious when they are in the same stream, and Sun Liren, if you are so outstanding and unconventional, it will be regarded as an "alternative".
Lao Jiang himself loves and hates him, loves his military talent and command ability, and is a rare general. What he hates is that he has always been inattentive to his "political tasks", and is almost indifferent.
But after all, he was not born in the lineage, and how could Lao Jiang, who was suspicious by nature, rest assured that this tiger general with outstanding ability and very close to the United States, and finally overthrowing his military power is the best proof.
It is hard to imagine that Sun Liren, a talented student of Tsinghua University who studied at the Virginia Military Academy in the United States and was called the "Rommel of the East" by the British, did not join the Kuomintang before the end of the Anti-Japanese War.
It wasn't until 47 years that he was transferred to Baodao by Lao Chiang that he submitted the application for joining the party, but a few years later he was expelled from the party by Lao Chiang, and was relieved of all his posts because of the so-called "mutiny case", and became a political victim of the game between the Americans and Lao Chiang. That's 33 years!
Lao Jiang once recalled in his later years: If Sun Fumin was a little politically minded, then I should be the one who was imprisoned...
Such an ending is really cruel and sad for this famous general of the Anti-Japanese War... Alas...
However, there is one thing to say, Sun Liren on the battlefield of resistance against Japan is definitely an iron-clad tough guy soldier, graduated from Tsinghua University and stayed overseas, and then threw his pen from Rong to join the army to serve the country, he was wounded in 13 places in the Battle of Songhu, was in a coma for three days and three nights, and resolutely led the army to fight abroad, "Ren'an Qiang Victory" is world-famous.
The Hukang River Valley broke the 18th Division of the Japanese Army, captured the Great Seal of Guanfang, forced Major General Tian Chuan to commit suicide by cutting his belly, and pushed south from Mengguan and Myitkyina all the way to Xibu, and the First Army under his command was the army-level unit with the largest number of enemies destroyed among all the troops in the Anti-Japanese War.
From the perspective of the nation and the country, he is worthy of anyone, even in the big dye vat of the Kuomintang, he can maintain his original intention, this is the quality that a pure professional soldier should have, which is also what Liao Mingyu admires him very much.
……
At 8:50 p.m., the sky was already as dark as ink, and the night was hazy and silent, but there was still a crowd of people in the courtyard of this semi-military villa on Henglan Mountain.
After all, the people who attended the meeting here were all the top leaders of various units in western Yunnan, and the most recent ones were generals at the level of division commanders.
In the conference room of the main hall, there was a huge long square table, and when Liao Mingyu came in, it was already full of people, although most of them he didn't know, but there were still a few old acquaintances who looked at him...
