Chapter 376
As a Hongmen hall master, it is definitely no problem to play with guns, but what kind of gun to use in a place obviously touches his knowledge blind spot.
"Oh! I don't know what Mr. Fang can teach me? ”
Fang Lang waved his hand and said with a smile:
"What is there to teach or not, we just discuss with each other, after all, we in Brazil, like you in Southeast Asia, have dense jungles.
If you are going to buy arms to fight in the jungle, I suggest that you do not buy firearms for too long, otherwise it will be difficult to turn around in the jungle.
In addition, it is recommended that you purchase more submachine guns, after all, if you have an encounter with the enemy in the jungle,
Often very close to the enemy, the submachine gun is short, the rate of fire is fast, and it can pour bullets in the shortest possible time. ”
When Ji Wanchang heard this, it really made sense, and he said with a smile:
"Haha...... That's right, we usually use a lot of submachine guns, but we mainly look at them and hide them.
Now that you say that, I do think that the submachine gun is a good fit for us. ”
"Also, in the jungle you can buy more mines or grenades to set traps.
As long as the enemy dares to pursue you, the mines alone, or the trick mines arranged by grenades, are enough for them to drink. ”
Hearing Fang Lang's analysis and selection of these weapons, Ji Wanchang became a little strange, looked at the soldiers who were responsible for protecting Fang Lang outside, and suddenly realized:
"Mr. Fang, you are leading the troops to fight! No wonder the equipment is so familiar.
Since that's the case, I don't know if I can trouble Mr. Fang to give us a list of equipment, and then I will directly follow your list to procure.
However, can you add some to this, the kind of grenadier of the little devil, when I came out, several veterans of the rebels in the team said that this thing is very good. ”
Fang Lang was stunned when he heard this, this stumped him, the Americans didn't have this guy in their equipment! It's pretty much mortars.
But the mortar is significantly more powerful than the grenadier, and of course, the corresponding weight will increase, and the speed of movement will be slowed down.
What he didn't understand even more was that in the jungle, could this thing work well?
The dense jungle wants to shoot, not directly to the top of your head? If you don't do it, you will blow yourself up.
However, since the other party made a request, of course Fang Lang could not refuse.
I can only tell the truth:
"The grenadier you mentioned is the unique equipment of the little devils, and they are the only ones in the world who have it, but if you want to throw weapons, purchase a batch of M2 60mm mortars from the US military!
I don't know how many people you need in total. ”
Ji Wanchang didn't think much about Fang Lang's question, and replied directly:
"No problem, you're professional, I trust you.
There are about 2,200 people in our team, all of whom are men who can go directly to the battlefield with guns. ”
Originally, Fang Lang was still worried that if he asked them the specific number, the other party would hesitate somewhat, unlike himself, an outsider. Unexpectedly, the other party simply told Fang Lang about their number of people without concealment.
This kind of character made Fang Lang a little worried, he didn't have a sense of secrecy at all, how could the rebels last?
If you don't do it, it will be sold, and after thinking about it for a while, I still reminded me:
"Mr. Ji, thank you for your trust and let me know the size of your team.
But there is a simple sentence that I want to warn you!
If you take the road of armed resistance, you will face life and death at any time, and you still have to pay attention to keeping a lot of information secret, otherwise it will be easy to be caught by the enemy and make a fuss.
This time, weapons and equipment can be purchased according to the scale of 3,000 people, which can be regarded as leaving some inventory.
Plus, confuse your enemies. ”
When Ji Wanchang heard this, he glanced at Fang Lang deeply, nodded at him and said:
"Thank you Mr. Fang for the reminder, I will pay attention to it in the future."
At this moment, Ji Wanchang felt that if he could let the guy in front of him go back to lead his rebel army, it must be a big deal.
But he understood that the other party had such a big industry in Brazil, and it was impossible to follow him to Malaya, so he hurriedly continued to speak:
"I don't know what else Mr. can teach me."
Seeing the other party's eager look, as well as his attitude of being direct and unconcealed, Fang Lang was still a little moved, so he didn't hide it, and said with a smile:
"I don't know who suggested that you seek the Americans as your backers, but I have to say that this is a clever move.
If you only resist with armed resistance and have a background in the MCP, you will be surrounded and suppressed by the British as a typical example.
However, if you are not armed with the MCP and only engage in armed struggle with restraint, I think you have a good chance of succeeding. ”
When Ji Wanchang heard Fang Lang's words, he immediately smiled, but soon he was stunned again, and asked with some puzzlement:
"Armed struggle with restraint? What does that mean? ”
Fang Lang smiled and said:
That is to say, we must have both struggle and moderation, and we must not expand the war.
You have to understand, and you have to make the British understand that your purpose is only to establish a Chinese state in Malaya, and you are not to have enmity with the British, and you do not need to deliberately target the British.
It is better to be able to make your own stand in a rural place where British power is relatively weak, and then make your position clear to the British.
Slowly infiltrate the surroundings, and you can even pay taxes to the British normally in the early stage, so that the British can see your position. ”
Who knew that after listening to Fang Lang's words, Ji Wanchang said in disbelief:
"Since we are fighting for independence, how can we continue to pay taxes to the British?
Isn't that the same as the original? ”
Hearing this, Fang Lang was not in a hurry, and continued to smile and said:
"Therefore, when it comes to armed struggle with restraint, you have to let the British understand that you do not want to go to war with the British, but that in order to build an independent country for the Chinese, you have to choose armed struggle."
"But didn't you say that if you want to have enough influence, you have to win the British once?
Then we can't go to war with the British? ”
"Who said there would be no war with the British, do you think the British would casually watch you occupy territory?
It is impossible to get the British to acquiesce to your existence without bloodshed.
So, there will definitely be a battle between you and the British, but this battle will have to show your strength and determination, and show the British your sincerity, understand? ”
The current Ji Wanchang was completely confused by Fang Lang, and looked at the other party with a puzzled expression:
"How can we show our strength and determination, and let the British see our sincerity!
Isn't that a paradox? ”
Hearing this, Fang Lang covered his face with one hand and said helplessly:
"If you want to be strong and resolute, you have to fight hard enough, hard enough. Let the enemy know that you are strong.
And it is very simple for the British to see your sincerity.
There will definitely be prisoners and wounded in the war, you can treat the wounded for the British, and when the war is over, take the initiative to return the British prisoners to the British.
However, you must also make it clear to these captives and the British that you have no intention of going to war with the British, but only want to have a piece of Chinese territory.
Then the British will have to start weighing the pros and cons, whether it is worth it to get into an endless battle with a powerful force.
When you promise to obey their leadership, they will definitely choose to turn a blind eye? ”
Ji Wanchang said a little incredulously:
"How is this possible, that is the mighty British Empire, the empire on which the sun never sets!"
It seems that the strength of the British Empire is indeed engraved in the minds of many people!
However, for Fang Lang, a person from later generations, he knows very well that the British Empire, which has gone through two world wars, has long been in decline, and the scenery is no longer there.
Of course, these words can't be said to the other party.
Fang Lang smiled and said:
"Compared to this little move of yours in Southeast Asia, the British have more headaches to solve."
Looking at the other party's questioning face, Fang Lang could only sigh and continued:
"Do you think you're the only one in Malaya who is fighting for independence?
The jewel in the crown of the British, the largest colony, India is the real headache for the British. ”
This can't be blamed on Ji Wanchang, after all, the information transmission in this era is far less developed than in later generations, and it is understandable that Ji Wanchang, who has been hiding in Southeast Asia, does not know what is happening elsewhere.
Hearing this, Ji Wanchang fell into deep thought, and only after a long time did he speak with a little excitement:
"You mean that the British have been involved in the experience of India, and they simply don't have the energy to pay attention to our petty powers?"
"That's right, as long as you show obedience to each other's leadership and don't take their cities.
and have enough strength, the other party will definitely not fight with you with concentrated forces. ”
Fang Lang analyzed to Ji Wanchang with confidence on his face.
Although Ji Wanchang's brain is not flexible enough, it does not mean that he can't use his brain.
After hearing Fang Lang's words, he continued to say in doubt:
"But if we don't occupy the city, we won't be able to grow big!
There is no way to achieve our desire for independence! ”
Although Fang Lang did not know when Malaya became independent, he knew very well that Malaya finally gained independence, and the British also supported the establishment of a regime, that is, Singapore.
Therefore, Fang Lang knows very well that as long as Ji Wanchang can endure loneliness, he will work silently in the countryside for about 20 years.
After getting the support of the Americans, they will definitely be able to get the status they want.
But Ji Wanchang obviously couldn't understand where Fang Lang's confidence came from.
After all, at this time, the tactics of the countryside encircling the city had not yet spread.
There are almost no people who can understand the essence of it, so Fang Lang had to teach hand in hand:
"I ask you, is Southeast Asia the size of the city or the size of the countryside!
Is it the urban population that is larger, or the rural population? ”
"Of course, it's rural."
"Since there are many rural areas, does that mean that if you control the countryside, you control most of Malaya."
"It's ....... It seems that yes, but the economic conditions in the countryside are not good! ”
After listening to the other party's words, Fang Lang sighed a little helplessly before saying:
"Who are the rich men in Malaya?"
"Westerners and Chinese."
"Then since the countryside is the territory of your Chinese forces, can you let the rich Chinese businessmen not shift the focus of investment to your territory?"
"It's ....... It's not impossible! ”
"If a large number of wealthy Chinese businessmen move to the countryside, will the countryside slowly develop?"
"I guess so!"
Hearing the other party's extremely unconfident answer, Fang Lang couldn't wait to hit the other party on the head with a burst, and shook his head a little helplessly:
"As long as you do well in the countryside and the economic policies are relaxed enough, I can tell you for sure that there is no problem in building a new city."
