Luo Zhuoying did not change on the surface, but he was actually greatly stimulated in his heart. The disputes he had with the chief of staff of the expeditionary force were actually about their respective national reputations. However, Meng Da believed that Stilwell was right.
Suddenly Luo Zhuoying's eyes widened and she was about to explode.
"Don't worry about it yet, let me analyze it for you."
After the Burma Highway was cut off, Country M opened a hump route to transport strategic materials to the Chinese battlefield. However, for every ton of gasoline transported by the hump route, a large number of planes and pilots crashed. The war to open the Sino-Indian highway and lay the Sino-Indian oil pipeline was victorious.
Negative and economic interests and other issues.
General Stilwell, who was responsible for commanding the Burma Campaign, had an undying dream and began to reorganize the Chinese Army and build the unfounded miscellaneous troops into an effective combat force. This was an almost impossible task. Luo Zhuoying
Hearing this, he was about to get angry again, but Meng Da held him down forcefully so he didn't stand up.
"Don't say that General Stilwell doesn't trust you, I don't trust you either! An incompetent general can only bring out a group of bear soldiers. He is a pure soldier, an army general. Can't he see through the serious problems in the country?
?Don’t be dissatisfied, military is not just about courage, it is about strategy, tactics, flexible mind and quality! A regime that is increasingly unpopular and untrusted by the people in China will sooner or later send you to a dead end!"
"Ah!" Meng Da scolded so fiercely that he not only scolded the Japanese generals, but also brought the Japanese government with him. Luo Zhuoying woke up from the scolding, and what his younger brother said was absolutely right.
"Because of the commander's incompetence, the first expeditionary force failed and many outstanding soldiers and junior officers died. This price is too heavy! Brother Luo, come to my military camp more often when you have nothing to do. He will help
You untie your knot. Go ahead, I'm very busy and can't go with you."
Luo Zhuoying smiled; "Okay, I'll go see what changes have occurred in your troops."
When he personally drove the car to the Huizhou Military Camp, two shameless soldiers refused to let him in. He shouted anxiously: "I am Lieutenant General Luo Zhuoying, the eldest brother of your commander!"
"General, we only recognize passwords and passes. Please forgive me."
Luo Zhuoying had no choice but to stare and said, "Stop it, call your teacher and ask him to pick me up."
"Yes, general, please wait a moment."
Division Commander Liu Dalong came and couldn't help laughing when he saw Luo Zhuoying. He pointed to the car outside and said: "This car belongs to our commander, and his name is louder than yours. But we are soldiers and only recognize obedience and
Strictly enforced military regulations. Sorry, you can go in, but not this car."
Luo Zhuoying was convinced. The nail felt comfortable and made him deeply aware of the mission and responsibility of soldiers. When he walked into the courtyard, his eyes were immediately attracted by rows of weapons, vehicles and green patterns. The weapons changed.
, the coat of the weapon also changed. Only then did he remember what Liu Dalong was wearing. He turned his head and looked carefully, circling the soldier in front of him from top to bottom.
When Liu Dalong was about to speak, Luo Zhuoying walked to the gate again and observed the soldiers on duty. He said with emotion: "It has changed. I didn't expect it to change so much!"
"What we will never change is that the difference between soldiers and officers is responsibility. An incompetent general will kill everyone. Therefore, in this army, officers at all levels are recruited based on their abilities through healthy competition."
Luo Zhuoying was shocked. Liu Dalong was his subordinate at the time. After the division commander was killed by Shangguan Yunxiang, he no longer wanted to stay in the army and took refuge in Meng Da. Now, Liu Dalong has become a mighty general, even though he is just a general.
The division commander actually commands the armed forces of three divisions. Plus an artillery division, he is already the commander-in-chief of an army of more than 60,000 people.
"In such an army, I would rather be a soldier. Do you know Zhang Dabiao, Ma Zhanhe, and Wang Yong? You know their qualities and abilities, but their official positions are still low-level. Liu Dakun, you know, right? He is in the **
He was a platoon leader and now he is the commander of the garrison in Hong Kong."
Luo Zhuoying was not confused. Liu Dalong was telling him that Meng Da did not have any relationship with them and served as officers at all levels according to needs. This was entirely a rule formulated to consider combat needs. The deployment of troops fighting against the Myanmar Army
It is fully equipped with American equipment and has enough firepower. Has its combat effectiveness really improved?
"One general's achievements are worth tens of thousands. Our commander hates this sentence the most. He said that there will be sacrifices in battle, but you cannot exchange thousands of soldiers for your official position and victory. If one person is sacrificed less, it will be
Let’s take one less pain out of our hearts.”
Luo Zhuoying was shocked. He was a lieutenant general in the army. Did he consider the death of soldiers? All-American equipment could not defeat the Japanese army. Isn't this because the commanders were incompetent? Why did Stilwell call the Chairman of the Generalissimo "
A stupid donkey? Who can be responsible for the more than 50,000 Chinese expeditionary force members who died in Savage Mountain?
"Are you curious about our military uniforms and combat uniforms? Don't tell me, even the people of country M are very jealous. The camouflage uniforms and underwear worn by the soldiers are all made of pure polyester. It is a moisture-absorbing and quick-drying material with super
It has high water absorption, perspiration and quick-drying properties, which can keep clothes and skin dry and comfortable. The biggest advantage is that it can help the human body regulate body temperature in real time."
"Ah!" Luo Zhuoying was surprised and asked doubtfully: "Is it also developed by your commander?"
"Yes!" Liu Dalong said with emotion after agreeing: "The commander has the heavy responsibility of the governor, but he has delegated all leadership rights. He is thinking about the development of Hong Kong and worrying about our lives. Every invention is for
We will reduce deaths and casualties at all costs!"
Luo Zhuoying, who was mentally traumatized again, stood dumbly like a fool. These words were spoken by Liu Dalong. They were words from the heart of a soldier who had absolute trust and gratitude for his superiors. Liu Dalong continued: "
I led this army, which was once a military force, and later joined Wang Jingwei and became the Imperial Alliance Army. Now you can see how they are different from the original ones. Come on, I will take you to visit."
Whether it is national responsibility or national pride, it all ultimately comes down to whether the people are truly considered. How are the specific interests of the people lost in the national and national interests represented by the government, and how does the government represent the country and the nation?
When it comes to interests, regardless of the specific interests of the people, they will eventually be counterattacked.
During the visit, Luo Zhuoying not only watched all the troops, but also the villagers, workers and miners near Huizhou. He gained a profound understanding. No wonder Meng Da would say that the current government is increasingly unpopular in China and not trusted by the people.
regime.
Back at Mengda's home, the young man poured him a cup of tea, sat down and said: "Stilwell fully realized that it would be difficult to rely on the Kuomintang to defeat the Japanese invaders no matter from a political, economic or military perspective.
.According to the Chairman of the Generalissimo, tactically, three Chinese divisions must be used to deal with one Japanese division. If the Japanese launch an attack, five Chinese divisions must be used to deal with one Japanese division.”
Meng Da stared at Luo Zhuoying when he said this, sighed and said: "The country's commander-in-chief does not trust the combat effectiveness of his own army. Isn't this a shame for you as generals? Millions of troops are just a number, troops without combat effectiveness.
, they will be eliminated sooner or later!"
Luo Zhuoying has never heard this kind of curse. Now that he heard it, he was not angry and felt very comfortable. He was already accepting problems that he had not noticed in the past. He needed to think about it and find out the root cause of the problem.
. He suddenly thought: "In the final analysis, the leader is incompetent. Is this kind of government really going to end?"
"How do farmers understand the national crisis? Can they forget the series of pains caused by the severe inflation that started in 1940? The National Government lost people's hearts as a result, and people looked on with cold eyes. You officials watched it build high-rise buildings and watched it.
The building collapsed but nothing happened!"
Luo Zhuoying raised his head in fear. Meng Da's words didn't sound good, but they made the current problems in China completely obvious. The shock in his heart could not be expressed in words. Yes, they watched the tall buildings being built.
, but collapsed under his own gaze.
"The common people don't ask for much. They have enough food, warm clothing, and a happy home. But what did you give them? Their families were destroyed, their wives and children scattered. How many people did not die at the hands of the Japanese army but fell under your regime?
How many people were forcibly captured and died on the battlefield? How many years have you been fighting the civil war? Isn’t the country’s weakness caused by you famous generals?”
"Scold, keep scolding!" Luo Zhuoying's face became brighter. He already knew that Meng Da was sounding the alarm for him. But he was just a general, and the power in his hands was given by Chiang Kai-shek. If he was unhappy, he would be scolded at any time.
There is a possibility of being dismissed from the post. Doesn’t returning to the country from the front line in Myanmar explain everything?
He thought of retiring. Since he was unable to change, he might as well give up his power and become an ordinary citizen. He figured it out, so Meng Da's scolding just made him understand the root of all the current problems. Seeing Luo Zhuoying acting like a dead pig, he was not afraid of it.
The boiling water seemed to be scalding, and Meng Da laughed out loud: "I'm tired of scolding, let's go and take a look at my new landline phone."
At the Air Force Airport opposite the military factory, a shining silver Airbus is flying in the sky. This aircraft is a product that combines American B-) bombers and military transport aircraft. The entire cabin is pressurized and can be used at any time.
You no longer need to wear an oxygen mask at heights above 10 feet.
Meng Da proudly introduced: "It can reach a endurance of 9,000 kilometers, and can fly directly to Country M and other parts of the world after being refueled in the air. The cabin has 46 very comfortable soft-bed leather sofas, as well as a bathroom and a small
bar."
Luo Zhuoying was surprised. Mengda could now build airplanes, cannons, tanks, and even rocket launchers and missiles that had been equipped with troops. He said in surprise: "If we can have such a bomber, I'm afraid the little Japanese will be finished soon!"
"
"Yes, you are right. But what you don't know is, where do the aluminum, copper and other metals I need come from? It's hard for a clever wife to cook without rice. This can only wait until I build all the metal companies.
To complete it. In order to complete my dream, I hope that my metal development in T Bay will be completed sooner!"
"Qiu Qingquan said you are a big liar, wouldn't you try to cheat people from country M?" Luo Zhuoying asked slyly.
"It's easier said than done! Country M has opened a hump route to transport strategic supplies to the Chinese battlefield. However, for every ton of gasoline transported on the hump route, a large number of planes and pilots crash. People in country M also want to sell the supplies to me, but they cannot transport them back.
