As Zhang Chi thought...... Huo Xianjie's biggest failure is that he didn't strike first. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

And the result of not striking first will lead to a series of problems.

First of all, it is impossible for Huo Xianjie's actions on Rabaul to be concealed from the Americans...... There were many Americans in Rabaul, such as pilots, airfield support personnel, military advisers and staff officers of the New Seventh Army, as well as personnel in many special positions such as mechanical maintenance, doctors, nurses, etc., and even many American instructors within the Sixth Army.

What made Huo Xianjie very embarrassed was that he would never dare to move these Americans.

Just kidding, this is the territory of the Americans, although most of the people on the island of Rabaul are Chinese and Chinese soldiers, but the equipment and supplies of the Chinese troops are provided by the Americans, and no one dares to oppose the Americans, even if President Jiang himself is afraid and does not dare to touch the Americans.

As a result, the movements of the Sixth Army on the island were quickly passed down from the American instructors to Halsey's ears.

"What happened?" Halsey made a phone call to Colonel Wilson at Rabaul Airport.

"General!" Wilson replied: "I don't know the specific situation either, it is likely that there is a problem within the Chinese army, and I see that they have arrested their own people!" ”

"Mutiny?" Halsey asked.

"This ......," Wilson replied, "I asked their commander, and they said that some soldiers had violated discipline, which was not a big deal, but it didn't seem that simple! ”

"Of course it's not that simple!" Halsey said.

He sensitively felt that this matter might have something to do with Zhang Chi, because Zhang Chi had just flown to Rabaul not long ago.

After thinking about it, Halsey said: "I don't care about the others, I need to find Colonel Zhang Chi, I want to talk to him!" ”

"Yes, General!"

Wilson originally thought that this was a very simple thing, the name Zhang Chi could be said to be known to everyone in the Pacific Theater, and someone as important as Zhang Chi must not have any problems, it is not too easy to find him.

So Wilson made a phone call to the military headquarters of the New Seventh Army...... But what puzzled Wilson was that the person who answered the phone was no longer the translator he was familiar with.

"Where's your commander?" Wilson asked.

"Sir!" The interpreter replied: "He has already been promoted to deputy commander of the 21st Army!" ”

"Oh!" Wilson felt that this was normal, the performance of the New Seventh Army was quite good, and the commander of this army should have been promoted a long time ago.

"Here's the way!" Wilson said, "General Halsey needs to speak to Colonel Zhang Chi, please come to my headquarters immediately!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

After the translator put down the phone and translated Wilson's words to Huo Xianjie, Huo Xianjie was stunned...... He knew early on that Zhang Chi had a good relationship with the United States, especially with this General Halsey.

The people on the American side can't afford to mess with it, not to mention that the other party is still a general!!

The translator looked at Huo Xianjie's expression and asked, "Commander, how do you answer?" ”

"Drag it for me!" Huo Xianjie said: "Just say it...... Zhang Chi was promoted to the staff officer of the group army and was busy dealing with internal affairs in the army! ”

"Yes!"

But Huo Xianjie knew that Americans were not so easy to fool, so he hurriedly made a series of arrangements to delay time.

Sure enough, as Huo Xianjie expected, as soon as he heard the excuse that "Zhang Chi is busy dealing with military affairs", Halsey's face turned cold and he scolded: "Fuck the military affairs!" There is a whole battle plan here that he needs to formulate and perfect, and also deal with the affairs of the army......"

Then Halsey ordered Wilson: "Colonel, whatever method or means you use, I command you to do everything possible to ensure Zhang Chi's safety and bring him to your headquarters, understand?" ”

"Yes, General!" Wilson realized that the problem was not simple, and he was almost deceived.

"What the hell?!" Wilson was a little puzzled: "Will they deal with Zhang Chi?" Unbelievable! ”

As an American, he took it for granted that if he made such a great contribution on the battlefield, he should be protected and respected by the state, and what reason did the Chinese troops have to be unfavorable to Zhang Chi?

So, Wilson always thought that there was some misunderstanding in this.

But he still followed Halsey's orders and personally led a team of airport guards to the military headquarters in jeeps and cars.

As a result, Wilson hit a soft nail, and he was received by the new commander of the new Seventh Army, Li Jiexun, who explained to Wilson through an interpreter...... These are just the normal movements of the newly formed 21st Group Army, and as for where Zhang Chi is, he is not very clear, perhaps he went out to find a base.

Wilson wanted to ask a familiar Chinese officer, but found that the entire military department had been replaced by strangers, so he wanted to go out and ask those who were soldiers...... It was very frustrating that it was difficult for those who were soldiers to communicate, and the soldiers could not understand English and needed an interpreter, so they could not imagine what to ask.

Wilson then asked for the address of the headquarters, and the answer was...... The headquarters is being formed, the address is undecided!

Dejected, Wilson returned to the airport command and told Halsey all about it.

Halsey was so angry that he dropped the microphone on the spot, thought about it, and said to himself: "It seems that if you don't give these Chinese a little power, they won't understand!" ”

As he spoke, a series of orders were immediately issued.

Huo Xianjie's side couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that the Americans had gone back without anything...... Huo Xianjie doesn't have other skills, but he is good at kicking leather balls and playing Tai Chi.

But Huo Xianjie also knew that it was not a way to drag on like this after all, and one day he would be exposed. It's only hateful that Zhang Chi and Wang Ninghang didn't give in...... Huo Xianjie originally thought that as long as he put a gun to their heads, there was nothing he couldn't do, after all, anything would be life-threatening? What's more, what made Zhang and Wang succumb was just to give up their military power.

However, there are really such stupid people in this world that they don't even know what to do next. (What Huo Xianjie doesn't know is that this is actually Zhang Chi's cleverness, if they all go down the path that Huo Xianjie envisioned, Zhang Chi and Wang Mazi will obviously not end well, and not taking the ordinary road will make Huo Xianjie panic.) ）

So, what now?

Huo Xianjie thought of two choices: first, he was to wait for further instructions from President Jiang's side. Second, further coercion and temptation, even at the cost of torture, to force Zhang and Wang to submit!

At this moment, the staff officer ran over in a panic and reported: "Commander, it's not good! American...... No, it should be the American warships that surrounded Rabaul! ”

"What?" Huo Xianjie couldn't help but be surprised.

As he was talking, a group of hundreds of fighters roared over Huo Xianjie's head.
