Chongzuo has undergone earth-shaking changes since Ouyang Yun designated it as the logistics supply transfer station for the Xuexing Expeditionary Army. Money makes things easier, and as far as Song Yi is concerned, what the Xuexing Army does not lack most is Money, no matter how Song Yi positions his role in his heart now, 95% of his officers and soldiers were completely bribed by the "money offensive" of the Xuebing Army. Let alone salary, the most common Private soldiers' pay is five yuan, and their weapons are all Wei Qing and Qu Bing styles. Each brigade is equipped with a tank regiment, and each brigade is equipped with an artillery regiment. When the new 206th Division was established, it had weapons supported by the United States. The basic equipment can be regarded as relatively advanced in the central military, but compared with now, it is still not at the same level. If the replacement of weapons and equipment is just a small matter, then the frontline airports that are getting bigger and bigger are being built. The establishment of an expeditionary aviation corps with as many as two divisions is a big deal... For all the above, although Song Yi has never been to Guangzhou, he also knows that China will probably change sooner or later. So, he really started Consider your own position,
For this reason, when I met Ouyang Yun after a few months, his attitude was completely different.
Ouyang Yun only stayed in Chongzuo for three hours. After meeting with Zuo Anzhao, Song Yi and others immediately set off for Hanoi. In Hanoi, he met with the leaders of the French Restoration Army led by Ang Bos and met with Zuo An Zhao. At the invitation of the French army, they reviewed the French troops. After several months of preparation, the French Resistance Army at this time had reached a certain scale. Its native troops had increased to four divisions, while the number of mercenaries had reached six. Division, if the increase in the number of troops is only symbolic, then with the replacement of the weapons and equipment of the Xuebing Army and the training of the Xuebing Army, the combat effectiveness of the unit troops has been improved, which is a real increase in overall strength. Improved. When Ang Bos accepted Ouyang Yun's suggestion to create the "National Restoration Army", he actually had the intention to do it under duress. But now, when the old French man accompanied Ouyang Yun to review his troops, he showed gained considerable confidence,
Ouyang Yun deliberately took a detour to cross the border from Hanoi and Bangkok not just to show off his force and to scare the French and Thais. Neither Guangdong, Guangxi nor Hainan are China's main food-producing provinces. Although southern Zhejiang and southwestern Jiangxi are rich in land, they are land of plenty. But they were all located on the front line of the war. Therefore, after Guangxi was incorporated and the population increased dramatically, the food problem also became serious.
Both the French and Thais are interested in strengthening cooperation with the Xuebing Army and hope to introduce the Xuebing Army's weapons production line. Among them, the French are the most ambitious. Angpos called Guangzhou early, hoping to buy a white-fin dolphin production line. Ouyang Yun specially The main purpose of taking a detour through the border is to negotiate these matters with the French and Thais.
Ouyang Yun stayed in Hanoi for nineteen hours, of which more than six hours were spent in talks and negotiations with the French people from the Far East led by Ambos. In the end, the two sides signed a new alliance agreement based on the original alliance agreement. Agreement. In this agreement, the Xuebing Army will provide the French with two fighter aircraft production lines and certain weapons and equipment, and the French will pay with food and minerals.
After leaving Hanoi, Ouyang Yun and his party stayed in Bangkok for another day. During his stay in Bangkok, he had a long meeting with Thailand's new Prime Minister Shinawatra, and finally signed a series of cooperation agreements.
After leaving Bangkok, Ouyang Yun traveled northwest and spent two days and one night arriving in Naypyidaw, where he held a labor conference. Since the British army was defeated by the Japanese army in the Battle of Pyay, southwestern Myanmar has now All were controlled by the Japanese army, and because Koizumi Minichiro focused his attack on the Philippines, there were no major battles on the Naypyidaw front during this period. This allowed the large army led by Ouyang Yun to calmly move westward without any auspicious events. Wen and others were worried about being involved in a large regional battle,
Fighting in the tropical jungle is a severe test for the officers and soldiers of the First Expeditionary Corps of the Sixth Expeditionary Corps. At the labor meeting, when Ouyang Yun walked past the cadets whose faces were darkened by the sun and who had obviously lost a lot of weight, he felt truly emotional He revealed that the corners of his eyes were actually moist, "Thank you for your hard work, brothers." He shouted loudly,
"Everything is for the sake of the war of resistance." The student soldiers shouted: "The student army will win."
"Today, you fought bloody battles for the motherland. In the future, the motherland will not live up to your bloodshed and sacrifice. This is the guarantee that I and Commander Chu give you. Come on, bring up the gifts prepared by the headquarters for the brothers."
For this labor conference, Xinbao spent three nights carefully preparing a speech for Ouyang Yun. When Ouyang Yun first became familiar with the speech, he was quite satisfied and thought Xinbao wrote it very well. It can boost morale. However, after seeing the thin bodies and dark faces of his brothers, he changed his mind. Instead of giving a long speech, he came directly to the benefits.
Boxes of Daodao brand cigarettes and boxes of Xuebing brand beer were brought up. For this time, Xuebingjun spent a lot of money. For this reason, Jiang Shuren, who had not complained to Ouyang Yun for a long time, could no longer hold back. , I found Ouyang Yun again and scolded him for a while. After the Guangzhou Incident, Jiang Shuren had gradually faded out of the public eye. However, he was still in charge of the Xuebing Army’s finances and was still one of the people who knew the most about the Xuebing Army’s financial resources. One, 3,200 boxes of Dadao brand cigarettes, nearly 5,000 boxes of beer, plus other various labor supplies, in the words of Jiang Shuren, can build five flying fortresses.
Ouyang Yun originally thought that it was interesting enough to spend such a high price to labor the army, but now he still feels that it is far from enough. He feels that compared with the sufferings suffered by the brothers in the expeditionary force here, no matter how much these things are, they are in vain. Not enough to offset the price they paid,
"I've sent something, I've sent something, haha."
"Dadao brand cigarettes."
"Beer, I like it."
... Ouyang Yun thought that no matter how much supplies he had, they would be useless to his brothers in the expeditionary force, but the students of the expeditionary force themselves did not think so. They were too easily satisfied. When Gu Lianyun commanded Niangzi Yun Wei, When the female soldiers began to distribute supplies to the labor force, the cadet team that had been in order just now suddenly became noisy. Seeing this, Ouyang Yun's gloomy mood finally eased. Then, he glanced around and asked Chu Tiange : "Tiange, that's the Independent Liberation Army over there."
Those who are qualified to participate in this labor conference include, in addition to the cadets of the First Expeditionary Army stationed at the Naypyitaw defense line, there are also about two thousand people from the "National Independence Liberation Army" summoned from Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. He performed well or made great contributions in the Battle of Pyay, and was eligible to obtain the "Green Card" issued by the Cadet Army. His current status is regarded as a quasi-cadet soldier.
