"The Germans have already experienced a serious shortage of strategic supplies..."
At China's top military conference, Yang Fangyun, director of the Bureau of Strategic Intelligence, said: "The Allies have significantly increased their attacks on the German sea transportation lines. In some battlefields, the Germans have become passive due to shortages of supplies. Now the Germans have
Make a request to our country for increased assistance."
"What about the Italian side?"
President Wang Hengyue’s question made Yang Fangyun quickly say:
"The Italian side is not trustworthy. The performance of their army on the battlefield is completely different from what they boasted. It can even be described as clumsy. Now Germany has simply become a fire-fighting force behind them. Italy only
It may become a drag."
Wang Hengyue smiled.
This is exactly what I thought before. Italy and their dictator Mussolini are such a country and such a person. If you put your hope in them on the battlefield, then they can only bring you a tragedy that makes you laugh or cry.
Later, Yang Fangyun briefly introduced the situation in the United States.
The first troops of the American Expeditionary Force have entered Europe and are about to enter the war.
The United States finally couldn't hold it in any longer, and a smile appeared on Wang Hengyue's lips.
Although it seems that the German war is going smoothly now, and there is no threat from Moscow, they must face a behemoth:
USA!
The national power of this country is not something that Germany can compete with. Now it is time for China to take action.
"The U.S. military will inevitably choose to land in Sicily." Wang Hengyue's judgment was very straightforward: "The Italians cannot be counted on at all. I have sent a warning telegram to Adolf Hitler, but it is hard to say whether Germany will choose to trust them.
Now. I think we can send troops to Europe."
One sentence makes everyone excited.
Send troops? Send troops! It’s finally time to send troops to Europe!
Judging from the current situation, China has controlled most of Asia. Although the United States will launch a counterattack in Asia at any time, the Chinese are not worried. They have the ability to defeat the American counterattack.
The focus lies on Europe. How to defeat the Allies as soon as possible and how to allow China to maximize its influence and decisiveness in Europe are the top priorities at the moment.
"Form the European Expeditionary Corps." Wang Hengyue said slowly: "I have already thought about the candidate for the commander-in-chief."
His eyes swept over these senior military generals one by one, and then he said word by word: "Liu Zhaocheng!"
"arrive!"
Wang Hengyue smiled slightly: "I heard that someone calls you the 'God of War,'"
"Report to Hengshuai, it's just a joke!"
"No!" Wang Hengyue shook his head: "I don't think so. Since someone calls you the 'God of War,' then you are the 'God of War.' Get ready to go to Europe. No matter who you like, you can recruit them into your command."
Ministry."
"Yes!" Liu Zhaocheng's voice was slightly excited.
After all, fighting a good battle with the Allied forces on the European battlefield and leaving his name in the annals of history forever is something that any officer can only hope for...
Now, history has put this opportunity in front of itself.
"Bai Chongxi.
"arrive!"
"Liu Zhaocheng's old partner Li Zongren has another important responsibility. This time you partner with Zhaocheng and serve as his chief of staff."
"Yes!" Bai Chongxi's voice was also filled with excitement.
"Everyone!" Wang Hengyue's voice suddenly rose: "It's not just Liu Zhaocheng. The European Expeditionary Force is just our vanguard. We will send more troops to Europe! Everyone, this will be a decisive battle!"
"Yes!" Everyone stood up and replied loudly.
The huge war machine was turned on again and the sound of "rumbling" machines could be heard even as far away as Europe.
The army is moving, the air force is moving, the armor is moving, the navy is moving. Once this war machine starts, no one can stop it.
War, if a war is needed to re-establish a new order, then give it to them!
When returning home, Wang Hengyue has never been so relaxed.
I was a little nervous and expecting before, but when something like this actually arrived, I felt relieved.
As soon as I entered the house, I suddenly saw a familiar figure:
Wang Ding!
That was his son, who finally came back from the war-torn European battlefield!
Wang Hengyue's heart felt hot for a moment but he quickly regained his composure. He just said lightly: "You're back?"
"Yes, father, he is back." Wang Ding's voice was also very calm.
"It's time to eat, it's time to eat." Ma Yunxin and Wang Hengyue's wives greeted the father and son to sit at the dining table with smiles on their faces.
Wang Ding helped his father pour the wine, and an unknown smile flashed across Wang Hengyue's lips.
"Performing well in Europe." Wang Hengyue took a sip of wine and put down the glass: "Especially the battle in Belgrade. Now it is only known to a large number of people in the German and Allied forces, and even in China. Therefore, the Ministry of National Defense is ready to be promoted.
You are a lieutenant colonel."
"Yes, thank you father." Wang Ding said calmly.
"Don't thank me, you did it yourself." Wang Hengyue said calmly: "There is no need to hide some things. The military has placed great expectations on you. I hope you can improve your prestige with your outstanding performance on the battlefield.
Then you successfully took over my shift. This time you lived up to their high expectations, so after the war in Yugoslavia, they immediately transferred you back. It turned out that they were going to directly promote you to colonel, but I didn't agree."
"Father, if the war continues, it will be a matter of time before you become a colonel." Wang Ding's tone was still so calm.
Wang Hengyue smiled approvingly: "The war will continue. Now you have two choices. The first is to join the General Staff or the Ministry of National Defense, and the second is to join the newly established European Expeditionary Force."
"European Expeditionary Force?" Wang Ding's eyes lit up, and he said without looking back: "Father, I am willing to join the European Expeditionary Force. I am relatively familiar with the situation in Europe."
"What?" Several of Wang Ding's mothers shouted out together, and Ma Yunxin said repeatedly, "How can this happen? After finally coming back from the battlefield, why are we going to the battlefield again? After all, you can't agree to him."
"The child has his own choice." Wang Hengyue said not caring much: "Since he likes life in the army, then let him go. There will always be someone who can give full play to his talents."
Both father and son had already made up their minds. Although the women were full of complaints, they couldn't say anything else.
After finishing the meal, Wang Hengyue and his son came to the garden, lit a cigarette and took a puff: "You have lived in the German army for several years. What do you think of the German army?"
"This is an army that is very capable of fighting." Wang Ding said without hesitation: "If the national strength is equal, I believe that the German army will not lose to any country's army. They have excellent commanders and excellent soldiers.
They can exert their strength ten to twenty times on the battlefield. However, if there is still no external assistance and the United States has already entered the war, if the war continues, Germany will be in danger."
Wang Hengyue nodded: "So this time I organized the expeditionary force, but it was not for Germany, but for ourselves. Germany cannot fail. Once Germany fails, then the European and American powers will concentrate on attacking us. This will change
It has become a situation where we challenge the whole world, and there is no chance of winning. The situation in Europe must be stabilized!"
"Yes." Wang Ding said: "France has surrendered. Although their resistance army is still there, but to be honest, the French's combat effectiveness cannot be complimented. As an established power, the United Kingdom still maintains a strong
naval strength, but they also face the same problems as Germany. It can even be said that Britain has reached the end of its war effort!"
Wang Hengyue was very pleased that his son could see this clearly: "The British put all their hopes on the Americans, and the Americans sent troops as they wished. Now the European war situation is facing a huge turning point. I have already sent a message to the German head of state
Hitler sent a telegram asking them to be on guard against Allied forces landing in Sicily, but Hitler may not be able to believe it. Once the German and Italian troops fail in the Sicilian War, the situation will become precarious. Therefore, it is time for us to send troops.
"
Wang Hengyue encouraged his son. Judging from the arrangements of the Ministry of National Defense, it is very likely that Wang Ding will be transferred to the special forces. This may also be based on Wang Ding's outstanding and legendary performance in Belgrade.
Wang Ding has no opinion on where he is placed. In his opinion, it is the same no matter where he is.
The battlefield is his favorite place to stay.
"Is Yu Suying returning to China with you this time?" Wang Hengyue suddenly asked.
"Yes." Wang Ding nodded and said.
"Another scholar." Wang Hengyue said with a slight smile.
Wang Ding also laughed out loud: "He and Yu Lei are really similar. The two of them are simply carved from the same mold. He constantly instills in me the idea of inheriting the position of president and constantly wants to push me to another position."
There is only one way to lead. But he doesn't particularly care about whether he can get promoted."
"He is very smart, very smart." Wang Hengyue put away his smile: "He knows that no matter how high he climbs, if he does not have a good foundation, he will fall down sooner or later. But he personally helps a person reach the peak of life.
It’s the same. But every successful person can’t live without such a person.”
Wang Ding understood somewhat, although he still didn't understand it very clearly.
Listening to his father's words, it seems that he has already acquiesced in the possibility of succeeding him in the future. Although Wang Ding does not like to be a president, there are many things that he and his father cannot choose.¨
While Wang Hengyue and his son were exchanging opinions with each other, Yu Suying, who returned home at the same time, also met her father Yu Lei.
After not seeing each other for several years, my father looked older again, his hair on the temples was all white, but he was still in good spirits.
"Sit." Yu Lei nodded in front of him.
Before going abroad, Yu Suying was full of resentment towards her father, but when she came back this time, she seemed to be a changed person and actually sat down obediently.
Yu Lei's eyes showed a hint of relief, his son had grown up after all.
He was silent there for a while, and then said: "I just got the news that Hengshuai is already forming an expeditionary force and will soon send troops to Europe. Chunxuan will also send troops to Europe with the expeditionary force again. What do you mean?"
"I'll go too." Yu Suying answered very simply.
Yu Lei's eyes showed a smile, this is his son. Some people are stupid and always want to help themselves climb to the peak of power, but they don't know that helping a person climb to the peak of power is the most important thing.
Get the best protection for your own rights.
That's what I did back then. Now, it's my son's turn.
"What do you think of Chunxuan? Is it possible to succeed the president?" Yu Lei asked unhurriedly.
"Absolutely." Yu Suying answered without any hesitation: "His performance on the battlefield is very outstanding. He has established his reputation both on the Chinese and German sides, which has laid a lot for him to take over in the future.
A good foundation. Although he has no intention of taking the political path now, I think as the situation changes, there are many things that not only Wang Ding himself cannot control, but even the president cannot control."
"You are very accurate." Yu Lei smiled faintly: "Heng Shuai is very opposed to the hereditary system, but he ignored an issue at the beginning. Those people in the army, Congress, including various important government departments, are all his
They will not allow the country they conquered by themselves to fall into the hands of others, including me. This kind of thinking is difficult to change in a short period of time."
"Yes, there is no need to change at the moment!"
Yu Suying's answer was concise and clear: "Maybe it will change in a few decades. At least the president is working hard in this direction, but it is not the era of Wang Ding. The power needs to be handed over smoothly, and domestic stability is the first priority.
."
"You have grown up, you have grown up." Yu Lei stood up and looked at the night sky outside: "We are all old, and sooner or later we will withdraw from the stage of history. The future of China will be controlled by you. The only thing I hope for
Yes, this country can become stronger in your hands."
Yu Suying was startled. She would never have heard such words from her father in the past.
My father only cares about his own future. When did he start to pay attention to the country? Did his mentality change with the change of status, or was it for some other reason?
