"General Du!" As soon as he walked into the headquarters, Stilwell shook Du Yuming's hand and said: "You guys fought very well, the tenacity of the Chinese army is completely beyond my imagination, I apologize for this, this is a mistake in my judgment!" ”

Hearing this, Du Yuming couldn't help but be stunned, he originally thought that Stilwell would find something to cover up, and he was even ready to refute him, but he didn't expect Stilwell to admit his mistakes so generously.

That's where Stilwell comes in...... In this way, he will give others a good impression of daring to act, and thus win the respect of the warriors.

Then Stilwell stopped paying attention to Du Yuming, who was stunned in place, and said: "I need a command headquarters and a Chinese who can speak English!" ”

Although Stilwell is fluent in Chinese and does not need a translator, the US military cadets he brought with him do not know Chinese, and Stilwell, as a commander, has important things to deal with, so he is naturally not suitable for translation.

Seeing this, Du Yuming couldn't help frowning, originally he thought that Shi and Luo might come here and leave in a few days, but now looking at their posture, I am afraid that they will stay here for a long time.

What Du Yuming didn't expect was that it was actually himself who was going to go, not Stilwell......

Stilwell would come here to take control of Myitkyina and fight back with them.

At the same time, Stilwell argued that the command system of the Chinese military, even the middle and upper ranks, was unqualified...... Of course, this is likely just a pretext for Stilwell to turn the Chinese army into a colonial army similar to the Anglo-Indian and Anglo-Burmese armies.

In this regard, Stilwell did not make it clear that the Anglo-Indian army and the Anglo-Burmese army were established after Britain defeated India and Burma, while China and the United States were allies...... At this time, the vast majority of American GIs had no experience in participating in the war, and their training and quality were more at the theoretical level, and they were extremely unsuitable for mountainous terrain such as Burma, so it was basically impossible to turn the Chinese army into a force similar to the Anglo-Indian army and the Anglo-Burmese army. In the eyes of the Chinese soldiers, the American GIs were all useless embroidered pillows, and there were even many American officers who would attribute their victories to their own commands, and if they lost the battle, they would always blame the Chinese army for not being brave enough, so it would be strange not to arouse strong resistance from the Chinese army.

To put it simply, Stilwell is a person who blindly picks fault with Chinese officers, saying that this is not good and that is not good, and many of the faults he picks are facts, such as eating empty salaries and the like are very common, but these officers have fought wars, and the Chinese will not treat the Chinese army as second-class citizens. And the American officers are the opposite...... Stilwell also doesn't pee to see what the role of the American officers he brings with him is.

Of course, that's all for later.

Because he needed an English translator, Zhang Chi walked into Stilwell's headquarters.

This was the first time Zhang Chi had seen Stilwell...... He was a little different from the photos he saw in modern times, and the real person looked a little more energetic.

Zhang Chi thought that this might be because Stilwell, who did not have a single soldier in his hands, finally found an opportunity that allowed him to show his ambitions.

As the saying goes, people are in good spirits when they are happy, and Stilwell is in this state at this time.

However, only Stilwell knows the difficulties:

The difficulties come first and foremost from the Chinese side...... The tens of thousands of troops holding Myitkyina were after all Chinese troops, and they were also quite combat-ready Chinese troops, and Chiang Kai-shek was not willing to hand over this army to Stilwell under any circumstances.

But Stilwell wasn't worried about that. The reason is that at this time, Lashio has been lost, the China-Burma road has been cut off, China has in fact been completely surrounded by Japan, and it is too busy to take care of itself, and of course it is impossible to provide any supplies or support to the expeditionary force in Burma.

Therefore, Stilwell only needs to sacrifice the banner of blood transfusion to China...... Chiang Kai-shek: That has to be handed over. If you don't pay it, you have to pay it!

Instead, it was the United States' ally, the British, that gave Stilwell a headache.

For example, Stilwell wanted to build a training base in Sunbrabang in northern Burma, which was not a problem, because the British army had already fled from Burma to India, and it was the Chinese expeditionary force that held the entire northern Burma. In other words, the Chinese Expeditionary Force has full right to use northern Burma.

To Stilwell's surprise, however, when he made this suggestion, he was rejected by Weyer.

"That's our British territory!" Wei Weier put on a serious expression and said unashamedly: "We can't easily give it to the Chinese!" ”

This only made Stilwell angry and scolded in his heart, "Fuck! ”…… The territory of the British, if not guarded by the Chinese in Myitkyina. It has long been the territory of the Japanese.

"General!" Stilwell asked Wivel, "What do you mean...... Is it for the Chinese to withdraw from Myitkyina first and give up northern Burma to the Japanese, and then fight back? So that it does not belong to the territory of the British! ”

Wevier was dumbfounded when asked, but he insisted on talking to Stilwell about the conditions, such as increasing U.S. aid to Britain.

Since the establishment of a training base in Burma and even future operations would require the cooperation of British India, Stilwell could only swallow this breath and agree to some of Weyer's requests.

From this point of view, the British are more like shrewd businessmen, who only know how to maximize their own interests regardless of what is reasonable or unreasonable, whether it should or not.

"General Stilwell!" Zhang Chi walked up to Stilwell and saluted, and said in fluent English: "I am the translator you need, my name is Zhang Chi!" ”

"Uh-huh!" Stilwell glanced at Zhang Chi, and when he saw that Zhang Chi was a lieutenant at such a young age, his eyes couldn't help but show a trace of disgust, and the corners of his mouth said in Chinese with a hint of sarcasm: "Before assigning your task, please tell me which high-ranking official's son you are, so that I can be mentally prepared!" ”

Zhang Chi couldn't help but be stunned, and secretly said that Stilwell's nickname of "Joe Acetate" really deserved its name, and people didn't know how to answer.

But Stilwell seemed to have some truth in what he said, a young lieutenant who spoke fluent English...... This is by no means common in the Chinese army.

However, Zhang Chi did not show weakness, he took a step forward and replied: "General, then please also tell me, which high-ranking official's son are you?" So that I can also be mentally prepared! (To be continued.) )
