So Wang Mazi also drove away the staff officers who were placed next to him, that is, the division headquarters to monitor him, not only that, but Wang Mazi also cleared all the eyeliners he knew about to control and monitor the new division.

This is especially important for an army, especially an army that is still going to the battlefield.

Needless to say, if you keep these eyeliners in the army, then Principal Jiang, who is far away in China, will start his old routine again...... Remote command of the expeditionary force.

If he commanded well, it would be understandable, and Zhang Chi admitted that President Chiang was sometimes quite insightful in strategy, such as using the Battle of Songhu to change the direction of the Japanese attack from north to south to east to west. Therefore, although the Battle of Songhu was defeated and the personnel losses were very heavy, it was only a tactical defeat, and it was actually a victory strategically, and it successfully dragged the Japanese mechanized troops into the area with a dense water network, which bought time for the **** to transfer a small amount of industrial equipment to Chongqing.

It can even be said that if President Jiang came to Myanmar to command, Zhang Chi would be acceptable.

But here's the problem...... This kind of command of President Jiang is a remote command.

Naturally, all kinds of information and intelligence will be artificially processed and processed and then transmitted to Principal Jiang after being artificially processed and processed and then transmitted to Principal Jiang, so Principal Jiang usually does not get an objective and comprehensive battlefield situation, and he gives orders based on these incomplete intelligence, so he will make a series of mistakes that violate the common sense of the battlefield.

A very simple example, during the first Burma campaign, almost everyone knew the danger of the Eastern Front, and that there should be no more unrealistic Battle of Pyongmana but should strengthen the defense of the Eastern Front, and the Chinese generals on the front line even reached a consensus on this point, but ****** an order came down: "Continue the Battle of Pyongmanna", and everything was over!

So, if it's from the perspective of personal future and safety. Of course, you have to leave Staff Officer Chen and his entourage, and even entertain them.

But from the perspective of war, you have to drive them away without hesitation.

In fact, Zhang Chi's drive away from Staff Officer Chen and the others was not impulsive or a quick attempt.

Because he considered that it was Stilwell who had the final say in Myanmar at this time...... While Stilwell's grip on the Chinese military is declining, it is only militarily. Stilwell still holds the "power of life and death" in his hands, such as sending whoever he wants back to China, and removing whoever he wants.

So...... Why did Stilwell leave Staff Officer Chen and others behind after driving out Chen Shanguo?

Is Stilwell not knowing that they are Principal Chiang's forces?

Of course not, since Stilwell knew that Chen Shanguo was President Jiang's power, it was obvious that Chen Shanguo had promoted him.

Is that Stilwell doesn't want to anger Principal Jiang?

It's even more unlikely...... Stilwell never gave Principal Jiang face, and driving Chen Shanguo back was enough to anger Principal Jiang, and it was nothing to catch up with some shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

Therefore, this can only be Stilwell's intention not to chase these shrimp soldiers and crabs away.

As for why...... That is, Stilwell wanted to see how Zhang Chi and the others would react.

In other words, if Zhang Chi and the others can tolerate Staff Officer Chen and others by their side now. It won't be long before Zhang Chi and the others are likely to be driven back to China with Staff Officer Chen and others.

Zhang Chi was reluctant to return to China because he knew that the fighting situation in China was much more severe and difficult than in Burma. Even if Zhang Chi is not afraid of hardship or tiredness, the space for development will be very limited if he returns to China.

So Zhang Chi didn't have a choice.

Sure enough, Stilwell was very satisfied with the performance of Zhang Chi and Wang Mazi.

As soon as he put down the phone, he said to Colonel Hill beside him: "Look, my judgment is right, they are real soldiers, and they are more concerned with fighting. It's the life of your own subordinates. They are people to be reused, and I believe that. They will play a big role on the battlefield in the future! ”

Colonel Hill also nodded: "This really surprised me, I thought they would at least choose not to offend at both ends, one step at a time, but I didn't expect them, especially that Zhang Chi, to take such a drastic way, which is almost cutting off their own retreat!" ”

"Yes!" Stilwell nodded: "After this incident, they have no way back, once they are sent back home." It is very likely that you will be persecuted by peanuts! But this is the kind of person who deserves our trust! ”

What Stilwell and Colonel Hill didn't know was that Zhang Chi wasn't as simple as they thought.

At this time, Zhang Chi did not completely fall to Principal Jiang, and certainly did not completely fall to Stilwell...... Jokes aside, Stilwell will have to leave the Chinese troops he has personally trained to return to the United States in two years because of a conflict with President Chiang. So don't look at Stilwell's current glory, not only in military success, but also in politics with American aid to hinder President Chiang, even Principal Chiang is helpless against his own actions.

However, after all, he is only a general of the United States, and it is impossible for the United States to turn against the head of state of a country because of a general.

Therefore, when the United States realized that President Chiang could no longer tolerate Stilwell, it would eventually remove him...... And all of Stilwell's success and foundation is in Myanmar, and as soon as he leaves Myanmar, he immediately becomes an insignificant person.

Zhang Chi knows this very well, so he has reservations and will not follow Stilwell all the way to the dark.

But if you want to say what Zhang Chi has now, Zhang Chi really doesn't dare to have any ideas, you must know that you are now just a regiment commander commanding more than 2,000 people, and even if you have any ideas, it is just a fantasy.

So Zhang Chi still focuses on doing the work in front of him...... The head of the new regiment.

I remember that when Zhang Chi changed from a company commander to a battalion commander, he felt that being a battalion commander was different from a company commander.

Similarly, when I became a regiment commander, I felt that the regiment commander was not the same as the battalion commander.

The difference is that this is like a ruler, one end of the ruler is combat and tactics, and the other end is strategy.

When he was still a squad leader, he basically only needed to take a few subordinates to fight a good battle according to the orders of his superiors, and he didn't have anything to do with strategic issues.

However, as the officers became older, there were fewer opportunities to personally lead their subordinates to the battlefield, and there were more and more things to formulate strategies to command the troops to fight and coordinate with various parts.

Zhang Chi once felt a lot of headache about this, his character is to like ******** to fight, thinking about how to defeat the enemy or win on the battlefield, and since becoming the regiment commander, there have been many more cumbersome things, such as logistics supply problems, soldier replenishment, equipment maintenance problems, etc., and then all kinds of documents are signed back and forth, and Zhang Chi has been made a head or two big in a few clicks.

Sometimes Zhang Chi is thinking, the regiment commander is like this, what kind of busy division commander, army commander and even commander will be?! (To be continued.) )
