Chapter 551: The U.S. Military Staff Observer Mission (Part 2)

Therefore, Gao Fei did not interfere with the process of the investigation team at all, and would check as much as he wanted. Gao Fei's extensive cooperation and the extremely high military and political qualities of the young army also made the Americans very happy. It is naturally no problem to have such a military Japanese, but it is very obvious that the Chinese army lacks necessary weapons and equipment, which is the urgent need for delays.

The same goes for the Americans after drinking. Drinking is Gao Fei's specialty. There are many ethnic minorities in Yunnan and Guizhou, so there are naturally more rules for drinking. The delicate girl toasts and sings to see if you drink. If you don't drink, you keep singing. The Americans are pouring it out in a few rounds. Brigadier General Wax also talks about a few half-baked Chinese dialect he has learned in the past few days and calls him brothers. During the chat, Brigadier General Wax revealed a very important news. President Roosevelt will send the presidential envoy to reach an agreement with British Prime Minister Churchill on matters related to the Chinese army's assistance in Myanmar defense as soon as possible. Brigadier Wax revealed that the UK is very proactive?

Gao Fei suddenly remembered that some time ago, it seemed that Wevel was arrogant about this matter. If the Chinese army was asked to rescue Yingjun and defend Myanmar, it would be a shame for the British army? Obviously, Wevel did not know the domestic policy instructions at that time. In Gao Fei's view, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill was a national hero of the Nelsons during World War II. He sought to maximize the interests of Britain everywhere and even betrayed the allies. China was often criticized for this. Churchill's selfish British character was undoubtedly exposed, but for the British, Churchill was a well-deserved hero, one of the three giants standing together with Stalin and Roosevelt. Moreover, his stubborn personality made Roosevelt and Stalin very helpless. Chiang Kai-shek also suffered a lot at the Cairo Conference in history.

Churchill was born into a famous aristocratic family. His ancestor, Duke Marbarrow, was a famous military commander in British history and a powerful figure in the British political circle during the reign of Queen Anne. His father, Lord Randolph, was an outstanding British politician at the end of the last century and served as the Minister of Finance in the Salisbury Cabinet. The great achievements of his ancestors, the political achievements of his father, and the glory and political traditions of the family undoubtedly had a huge impact on Churchill's birth. Churchill was not only the incarnation of the so-called British spirit.

However, it is worth noting that Churchill is a famous stubborn figure. However, at the critical moment of World War II, when dealing with the issue of relations with the Soviet Union, he used the great courage and high flexibility of an outstanding politician to complete a major historic turning point in British politics and his political career based on the fundamental interests of the British people. He did not hesitate to establish an ally with the Soviet Union, making anti-fascist forces under different ideologies form a united front under specific historical conditions, thus ensuring the final victory of the war. However, this only shows that Churchill is a very pragmatic guy. Stalin was able to get his respect. Churchill's respect is measured by strength. The four words "snob" are extremely appropriate. The blood sacrifice of mountains and rivers of the Anti-Japanese War 551

To put it simply, Churchill is a guy who can get on the cheap and hide when he sees difficulties. He brought back the marginalized Britain in international politics. In addition, even if Britain withdrew hundreds of thousands of troops from Dunkirk in history, he was too short of troops to guard against possible landings of the Germans. What's more, the hundreds of thousands of elite expeditionary forces that the British relied most into the German prisoner-of-war camp, so the British Empire drew troops all over the world back to defend the local area.

Through the words of Brigadier General Wicks, the British would definitely agree to the Chinese Expeditionary Force entering Myanmar for defense, rather than obstructing things in disguise in history. In the end, under the attack of the Japanese army, Britain collapsed without fighting, discarded all its weapons and equipment, and an entire armored brigade used its tanks as obstacles to explode at the pass. Historically, the British performed as embarrassing as the performance in Myanmar. Only unexpected things were not expected, and no British cadres came out.

If the Chinese Expeditionary Force can successfully assist in the defense and receive the supply of British weapons and equipment, with the ten reorganized divisions and six brigades of the Chinese Expeditionary Force after the expansion, it will naturally be more than enough to defend the road from Yunnan-Burma to India, and it can even counterattack Indochina and drive the Japanese army into the sea.

That night, Gao Fei sorted out the news revealed by Brigadier General Wicks and sent it to Chiang Kai-shek. Chiang Kai-shek, who received the telegram, did not disturb him in the middle of the night. Instead, he was ready to mutter three times in the study! Obviously, Chiang Kai-shek was helpless about the humiliation brought to him by Wavere, the one-eyed dragon, before, but now the overall situation has completely changed. Although the relationship between the strategic alliance between China, the United States and the United Kingdom has not been established, the overall international situation has improved greatly compared to before.

However, Chiang Kai-shek also had a headache, that is, the appointment of senior officers of the Chinese Expeditionary Force. Huang Junjie, Zhang Lingfu, Li Guoren, and Xie Wenhua are all their favorite generals. Shen Yingxiong and Cai Wenzhi are their trustworthy students. Gao Fei is also the leader of loyalty and outstanding abilities. The Youth Army is a party army planned and established by himself. Gao Fei is also a tried and tested person. However, the Chinese Expeditionary Force formed by the Youth Army has been initially under the jurisdiction of the initial jurisdiction.

With ten reorganized divisions and six brigades, the weight of this army can naturally be imagined. Some powerful generals were transferred, such as Song Xilian, Liao Yaoxiang, and Sun Liren, who were worried that Gao Fei would be unable to convince the public with his qualifications, and that the arrogant soldiers would be difficult to control. The mutual suspicion between the generals and the commanders was a taboo in using troops. After thinking about it, Chiang Kai-shek decided to hand over the nomination power to the Ministry of Military Affairs and the choice of the power to Gao Fei himself. After all, this was to drive more than 100,000 troops to a foreign country where life and death were unpredictable to fight against the enemy and annihilate the enemy.

Chiang Kai-shek inadvertently made a very wise choice. Many years later, Chiang Kai-shek was still full of emotion about the original choice and was entangled in the opposite direction.

Another requirement put forward by the U.S. Military Staff Observatory is to send a well-established unit with rich combat experience to the Philippines, and serve as military instructors for the U.S. troops stationed in the Philippines and the National Guard, so that they can enter a state of combat readiness as soon as possible.

Chiang Kai-shek immediately satisfied the demands made by the United States. After all, this was a glorious thing to show his face. Before, China only hired foreign teachers and instructors, but now it is finally the turn of foreign countries to invite Chinese instructors. Chiang Kai-shek was excited and sighed.
