Stilwell looked at the Mongolian soldiers who couldn't even tell the difference between left and right, one head and two men, and stammered: "He, they, just rely on them."
"Oh." Ouyang Yun touched his nose: "It's my fault that I didn't explain clearly. It's not them, but the troops they will replace."
"That's pretty much it, these people," Stilwell said, looking at the Mongolian soldiers with disdain in his eyes.
There are many people who are not optimistic about the Mongolian soldiers, such as Liu Kui and Pan Meiren. Perhaps it is because they are used to riding horses to herd. Although these Mongolian Defense Force soldiers are in good physical condition and are good at riding horses, their combat skills with hot weapons are not good. However, his ability to comprehend was extremely poor, so much so that even a small team training required Guderian to invest a lot of energy.
"Isn't it a bit embarrassing for us Chinese to hand over such troops to the Germans for training?" Pan Meiren asked Ouyang Yun in private.
Ouyang Yun's answer at the time was: "Shame on you, why do you think so? Charming, I can bet you that within two years at most, this force will grow into the world's first-class armored force. Do you want to bet?"
Because Ouyang Yun showed great confidence, Pan Meiren, who was familiar with her temperament, did not dare to gamble in the end.
The heroes saw the same thing. At almost the same time, several of Guderian's old subordinates were complaining to him that the Mongols were "stupid and difficult to teach". As Guderian's former subordinates, they were captured together again. After Guderian and Ouyang Yun reached a secret agreement, Lonely Leian was naturally recruited into the teaching group and became one of the instructors. They were originally feeling lucky to have survived the catastrophe (they had also returned from Japan at this time) (I learned about the Chinese version of "battlefield discipline" from the military mouth). Now, facing such a group of wooden heads, I feel that the Mongolian soldiers in front of me are really the stupidest soldiers I have ever seen in my life. Basic turns have to be decomposed N times. From this point of view, these Mongolian soldiers are indeed stupid enough. However, in Guderian's view, this is precisely their greatest advantage, because only in this way can he make the turn as he wishes. I can completely instill in them all my ideas about tank warfare without worrying about them finding other ways.
"Their ability to accept is a bit poor, but you remember, the most important thing on the battlefield is to give orders. As long as they can resolutely implement your intentions, then they are a qualified force." He said to his men. .
Ouyang Yun and Guderian both insisted that the Mongolian Defense Force would become an elite force. Because of this common idea, the two people couldn't help but like each other a lot when they got along, and they had a wonderful feeling of sympathy for each other. There is no doubt that this feeling is beneficial to the cooperation between them, which allows them to trust each other more. On the day Ouyang Yun left Ulaanbaatar, in the aviation building of the airport, Ouyang Yun and Gu saw him off. Derian talked for about twenty minutes, and Guderian once again asked Ouyang Yun for a few people and a batch of equipment.
After making that decision, Guderian's life in Ulaanbaatar became stable. During the day, he was the leader of the recruit training group of the Mongolian Army of the Chinese National Defense Force; at night, he was the leader of a secret organization, commanding Several confidants communicate with various parts of the world through several high-power radio stations.
After Ouyang Yun returned to Chongqing, the first thing he did was of course hold a meeting within the Supreme Command to discuss the agreement between him and Guderian.
This matter was of great concern, so Ouyang Yun did not communicate with anyone in the Supreme Command when he made the decision. So, when he suddenly made the news public at the meeting, everyone else was shocked. .
"Assassinating Hitler" or "launching a coup to overthrow the Nazi rule", any one of these two things is enough to cause a world-class eyeball effect. It is not surprising that Chen Cheng, Feng Yuxiang and others would have this reaction, and in the brief shock After that, they immediately raised various questions. The biggest question was first of all doubts about Guderian's ability. Because of the war to aid the Soviet Union and the North African War, the staff of the Supreme Command collected a large amount of intelligence related to the German army. The boss of the high command From this, we know a lot about the German army. As the commander of the Second Armored Group of the German Wehrmacht, Guderian can be called a powerful man, but his military rank is only that of general. This is because the marshal can almost capture a large number of people He is definitely a junior in the German military. How much influence can he have as a general? Can he influence those marshals?
"There is no need to doubt Guderian's ability and connections. Look at this." Their doubts about Guderian were actually doubts about this cooperation agreement. Ouyang Yun was naturally obliged to clear up his doubts. He handed over the share he originally gave to Guderian. An took out the list and said.
Everyone circulated it one after another with different expressions.
"I think it's worth a try." Bai Chongxi was the first to speak. He glanced at everyone and then looked at Ouyang Yundao.
"Both the British and the French are not good people. In comparison, my impression of the Germans is better. If General Guderian really has this ability, I think it is worthy of our support." Feng Yuxiang followed closely.
"But will that damage our country's ever-growing reputation?" Li Jiayu questioned.
"Reputation." Ouyang Yun smiled and said slowly: "We helped the German people overthrow the Nazi rule and gradually saved the world. No matter how you look at it, this should be a good deed."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then someone laughed loudly: "Of course this is a good thing."
Although Ouyang Yun repeatedly emphasized in his talks with Guderian that he would form a secret alliance first and then make it public after they overthrew the Nazi rule, in fact he did not care about this order because he knew that this was a society where the strong were respected and the winner was the winner. The king and the loser are bandits. As long as China becomes the final victor or even one of the victors, it will be able to provide a reasonable explanation for its previous actions, and other countries can only choose to accept it.
"If Guderian can really unite everyone on this list, no, even one third, he can really achieve something." Chen Cheng's eyes stayed on the list for a long time, then he looked up at Ouyang Yundao, "It's just." He paused and continued: "Does the situation reflected in this list be true?"
"Director Mu, what do you say?" Ouyang Yun did not answer his question immediately, but turned his attention to Mu Jiandie sitting in the corner.
Mu Jiandie bowed slightly and said, "I trust the judgment of my brothers."
Ouyang Yun nodded with satisfaction and turned to Chen Cheng: "I believe in Director Mu."
