Ouyang Yun predicted that colonialism would be destroyed. This was an earth-shattering event to Ambois. As the governor of the Indochina Federation, even if he himself did not agree with the colonial policy, he had to learn from his position as a member of the French. From this perspective, he should fulfill his duties as governor. He said before that he was willing to give up the Indochina Federation for the restoration of the country. He thought that the Xuebing Army wanted to get involved in Southeast Asia out of a principle of exchange of interests. After all, there is no free lunch in this world. , if he wants to get help from Xuebingjun, he must pay a certain amount of compensation.
The biggest problem facing the French now is indeed the lack of troops. Therefore, Ouyang Yun's proposal is still quite tempting. Angpos frowned and thought for a while and said: "Your Excellency, I personally cannot make the decision on this matter. However, it is indeed a good idea.”
Ouyang Yunxin said: Of course, mercenaries are a tradition of the French army. On his face, he smiled and said: "I am just making a suggestion. It is up to you to discuss and decide on how to do it." Then he stopped and scanned the crowd. The Frenchman glanced at him and said loudly in Chinese: "Gentlemen, please come to the headquarters to sit down and drink some tea. Later, we will organize a New Year's reception for you. I hope everyone is ready."
Guo Kui and other generals of the Xuebing Army laughed when they heard this, but the French officers felt that their smiles seemed a bit malicious, and they hurriedly asked the translator about the specific meaning of this sentence.
The interpreters explained that it is the tradition of the Xuebing army to entertain friendly troops with good wine and food. At the same time, this is also a competition. "Our commander-in-chief believes that the combat effectiveness of an army is directly proportional to the alcohol capacity of its commander." A translator said. Finally, I added this sentence privately,
Not to mention how Ouyang Yun and a group of subordinate officers had a drinking contest with the French, and set their sights on Phan Thiet City in Vietnam. At about three o'clock in the afternoon the day before, Kobayashi Yotao led thirty-one special forces of the heroic special forces. , took two speedboats from Mersing and headed straight for Vietnam. They bumped on the sea for twenty-seven hours and waited for more than two hours offshore in Phan Thiet City. At about nine o'clock in the evening, they arrived A secret landing was made on the beach of Phan Thiet City,
The commander of Xiongfeng was a captain with the rank of squad leader named Kurasaka Seiyi. After a group of thirty-two people came ashore, he personally took charge of cutting off the rear. After messing up the footprints, he sneaked into Pan Pan based on the secret stronghold map provided by Yamaguchi Aoyama. Che city suburbs,
As early as half a year ago, Koizumi Minichiro proposed to establish enough intelligence points in Southeast Asia. Now, these intelligence points are beginning to work, and Kobayashi Yotafu and his party have become the first batch of beneficiaries. They rested there for one night, and the next day Early in the morning, they split up and infiltrated into several predetermined cities. Among them, Yotao Kobayashi went straight to Hanoi under the protection of 11 Xiongfeng team members. His mission was to contact Roland in Hanoi and then wait for an opportunity; the other team of ten people Led by a second lieutenant named Tamura Xiangtoshi, their destination was Phnom Penh, and their mission was to find out the garrison situation of the Xuebing Army there, and then see if there was a chance to assassinate Ouyang Yun; the remaining eleven people were sent by Cang Ban Cheng also led it personally, and his destination was Dishi. His mission was to investigate the truth of the previous riots.
On the 2nd, in the barracks of the Pobiet Cadet Expeditionary Force, most of the French officers finally woke up after being scolded by Ang Bos after sleeping all morning. After hastily eating the camp meal, he took the lead, accompanied by Guo Kui. Comprehensively experience the training and equipment of the Xuebing Army,
The officers under his command were free to have a drink with the officers of the cadet army, but Ang Bosi was very thoughtful and was always considering Ouyang Yun's suggestion. After dozens of hours of struggle, he finally decided to accept Ouyang Yun's suggestion, and now , just to prepare for persuading the officers under his command,
This experiential trip was even more shocking to the French. After witnessing with their own eyes the superior tactical qualities of the cadets and the advanced and powerful weapons of the cadet army, the French had greater confidence in the Nationalist Army. , that night, after having a simple camp meal again, Angpos called everyone together for a meeting and proposed the idea of forming a mercenary army.
"As long as the country can be restored, I think we can give up the colonial interests in Southeast Asia. I think General de Gaulle will also agree with this decision." Finally, he said,
If you form a mercenary army in Southeast Asia, the sources of troops can only be local indigenous people. This brings up a question: once the indigenous people have strong military power, will they become independent? What Angbos said shows how he treats this issue. attitude towards the matter, that is, as long as the country can be restored, it is okay to allow the three Southeast Asian countries that form the Indochina Federation to become independent.
Ivan was the first to express his position: "I agree with the Governor-General's decision. In order to restore the country, anything else can be sacrificed."
Sandford followed up and said: "I have an idea. Since we can recruit local people as mercenaries, can we discuss with the Chinese government and recruit from China? The quality of Chinese people is much better than that of local people. ,The most important thing is that because the instructors are also Chinese, the training effect will definitely be better."
The training of mercenaries will be the responsibility of the cadet army. This is what Ouyang Yun has promised to Ang Bos. In fact, not only the mercenaries, but also the three divisions of the French army will also receive training from the cadet training group. In order to restore the country Daye, Ang Bosi has decided to establish the closest alliance with the Xuebing Army.
As soon as Sandford finished speaking, Sagemon said: "This is a good proposal. I also think the Chinese are more reliable."
"I said, why not just hire a student army?" a regiment leader suddenly shouted loudly,
Ang Bosi smiled bitterly: "I have also thought about this idea, but I didn't dare to mention it at all. You may not know yet, but the original purpose of General Ouyang Yun's formation of the student army was to fight the Japanese. Before Japan was completely defeated, , I guess they won’t agree to our request.”
Yiwen's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said loudly: "It will take a long time for the Nationalist Army to go out. By then, if China's anti-war situation is good, it may not be impossible. Sir, I think you can try to talk to Ouyang first. Commander-in-Chief, please mention it."
…
While the French were discussing the possibility of hiring cadet troops, Ouyang Yun and Guo Kui were also discussing some matters related to French mercenaries.
Ouyang Yun has promised Angbos that he will send a sufficient teaching team to help them train mercenaries. Since training mercenaries has become a matter for the student army, it would be really embarrassing if some tricks are not done. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Ouyang Yun's idea is to provide cultural training courses while conducting military training, and the minimum goal is for all mercenaries to learn Chinese.
"No matter what the final fate of these mercenaries is, one thing that is certain is that the vast majority of their survivors will come back. By then, Southeast Asia will be their world, so teaching them Chinese is too important. It must be Cultivate some pro-China forces in Southeast Asia. Although we may not have the ambition to dominate the world, it is necessary to guard our traditional sphere of influence. It may not be our turn to formulate the future world order, but we will never allow some hooligans to The country has extended its claws to our doorstep." He explained the importance of opening cultural training courses. Guo Kui listened quietly and couldn't help but smile like a fox: "That's right, Commander-in-Chief, you should think further."
Ouyang Yun chuckled, and the words "South China Sea Oil and Gas Resources" flashed in his mind, and some of his ideas became firmer.
