Chapter 837 Mystery Envelope
Stilwell just saw Hu Bin, and immediately greeted Hu Bin with a smile, he didn't think about Hu Bin not coming out to greet him, he was just a major general (only promoted to lieutenant general in 42 years), and he didn't have enough to see in Hu Bin's eyes, and Hu Bin was so good at fighting devils in Southeast Asia, so he didn't dare to pose in front of Hu Bin.
"General Hu, hello!" Stilwell greeted Hu Bin in Chinese.
"General Stilwell is here, welcome you, unwell, I can't greet you in person, I'm sorry!" Hu Bin lay there and said, and the translator next to Stilwell immediately translated Hu Bin's words to him.
"Thank you, don't know General Hu's body?" Stilwell asked, pretending to be concerned.
"Little thing, cold! I wonder what is the important matter of General Stilwell's coming? Hu Bin waved his hand at Stilwell and asked, and the translator next to Stilwell continued to speak to Stilwell in English.
"There are very important things, there are several aspects, I hope to be able to talk to General Hu alone!" Stilwell spoke in English, and the translator next to Hu Bin also spoke to Hu Bin.
"Let's talk about it alone, I'm afraid this won't work, our General Hu is not feeling well!" Li Dalong said immediately.
When Hu Bin heard it, he rolled his eyes at Li Dalong, and Li Dalong couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
"If there's anything important, you can just say it, it's still very safe to talk here, my people are very reliable!" Hu Bin said to Stilwell.
"I believe this, but I do have something to talk about with General Hu alone, I don't know if General Hu has time?" Stilwell looked at Hu Bin and said with a smile.
"That's right. Let's go to the conference room! When Hu Bin heard him say this, he stood up and took the lead to walk towards the conference room, and Li Dalong followed.
"General Li, I want to talk to Hu Bin alone!" Stilwell saw that Li Dalong was also following, and immediately said.
"Ahh Li Dalong heard it, was a little surprised, and then looked at Hu Bin.
At this time, Hu Bin also heard it, turned around, and said to Stilwell: "He is the person I completely trust, with him, it's okay!" ”
"Ah, this, okay!" When Stilwell heard Hu Bin say this, he could only agree.
When we arrived at the conference room, the orderly brought hot tea and went out.
Soon, there were Hu Bin, Li Dalong and Stilwell left in the conference room, as well as 2 translators!
"General Stilwell, there's something you can say." Hu Bin motioned to Stilwell to tell him what was going on.
"General Hu, now that our troops are in Canada, they have suffered defeats one after another, I wonder if General Hu has any good ideas?" Stilwell asked, and he didn't get into selling weapons all at once.
"You really stumped me with this, I don't know much about the situation on your side of the country, but, as far as I know, there are a lot of ground troops in Japan now, but many of them are recruits, for you Mi country, it shouldn't be difficult to block the attack of Japan's troops, right?" Hu Bin heard it, smiled and said to Stilwell.
"It's difficult, although there are a lot of recruits on the Japanese side, but they are very well armed and equipped, Japan got a lot of advanced technology from Germany, plus the materials they plundered all over the world, including the iron ore they got in Australia, they got a lot of rubber in Southeast Asia, they imported a lot of oil from Germany, and they got a lot of advanced equipment from Germany.
And our country, for this sudden war, is not prepared at all, and we did not expect that Japan would start an attack from the Bering Strait, so now for our country, there are more recruits! Stilwell looked at Hu Bin and said very sadly.
"Oh, yes, you guys were a little unprepared before, and you may not be able to do it in terms of troops!" Hu Bin heard it, nodded with great sympathy and approval.
"Yes, now that our ground forces have the Bayi rifles you sold us, we have been able to suppress the attack of the devil infantry units on the Canadian side, but the Japanese armored forces and air force units, our United States is not an opponent at all.
In Canada, we lost thousands of fighters and tanks, and still not managed to stop the Japanese attack! Therefore, this time I was specially ordered to come to General Hu's side, hoping that General Hu would not hesitate to give advice! Stilwell looked at Hu Bin and said very modestly, still not mentioning the purchase of equipment first.
And Hu Bin was also confused by Stilwell, the United States was fighting, and he asked himself for his opinion, Japan's equipment in the Americas and Southeast Asia's equipment, as well as the ratio of troops, are completely different.
Being able to defeat the devil in Southeast Asia does not mean that you can command the troops of the United States to win the battle, besides, I haven't thought about this matter at all before, in Hu Bin's heartfelt words: You have lost the war in the United States, it's my business!
"This, I'm afraid I can't help it, I've been fighting on my side before, so I haven't thought about the things in the Americas, and besides, I don't know much about the combat effectiveness of your country, so I can't give you any effective advice!" Hu Bin thought for a moment and directly rejected Stilwell's request.
"This is our abruptness, but, General Hu, according to what I know, your Chinese fighter seems to be on the Southeast Asian side, able to completely suppress the Japanese fighter, and it is also a Zero fighter, I don't know if there is such a thing?" Stilwell asked again.
And when Hu Bin heard it, he began to think in his heart, Stilwell knew about this, Hu Bin's Second Air Division was fighting on Wei Lihuang's side before, Stilwell knew this matter very well, and now he actually came to ask himself.
"Well, that's what happened!" Hu Bin didn't know what his purpose was, so he nodded anyway.
"General Hu, I want to ask you for a favor, just to see if you can transfer 5 aviation divisions from your China to support our United States in the war, you can rest assured, we will definitely not be less in terms of remuneration, I guarantee to satisfy you!" Stilwell looked at Hu Bin and said.
He still did not mention the matter of buying equipment, but proposed that Hu Bin send troops of five aviation divisions to the United States.
"Ah, this can't work, this can't work, absolutely not, 5 aviation divisions, we may not have so many planes and pilots, I can't agree to this, but, General Stilwell, are you looking for the wrong person, this matter, if you want to talk about it, you don't want to talk to me, right?" When Hu Bin heard him say this, he refused again, but he was also vigilant in his heart.
Because if Stilwell really wanted the support of the aviation division, he would not talk to himself, but should go to Yan'an to talk to the commander and commander-in-chief.
"Yes, I know, but, this, General Lee?" Stilwell just wanted to say, glanced at Li Dalong, and then said to Hu Bin!
"You can say anything directly, it doesn't matter, I fully trust him!" Hu Bin knew what Stilwell meant and spoke.
"Well, that's right, General Hu, we want to ask you to send 5 aviation divisions to assist us in the battle, although we don't know how many aviation units you have, but I think there must be 5 aviation divisions.
I also know that this needs to go to Yan'an, but according to what I know, most of the air force units in Yan'an are on your side, so I want to come over and ask you what you mean first! Stilwell looked at Hu Bin and said.
"This is impossible, we don't have so many troops, and you know, I estimate that it won't be long before the war against the Japanese army in India will begin, and there are not enough planes, how can I fight?" Hu Bin slowly became more and more calm and said.
He felt that Stilwell didn't seem to come with this purpose this time, and he knew with his toes that at this time, even if the rice country offered a sky-high price, Yan'an would not send 5 aviation divisions to the United States, and the domestic devils had not yet been solved, how could such an important force be sent.
"Yes, our request is a bit excessive, but we really have no choice, we have completely lost air supremacy on the Canadian side, you know, in the face of such a large Japanese air force, what does it mean to lose air supremacy?
No matter how much sacrifice our ground forces make, they will not be able to hold back the Japanese forces. Stilwell looked at Hu Bin in embarrassment and explained.
"I'm sorry, I can only sympathize with your situation!" Hu Bin nodded and spoke.
"Then, General Hu, if you can't send a plane over and sell us some? We really need your Chinese planes so badly! Stilwell looked at Hu Bin and said.
When Hu Bin heard it, he was happy in his heart, Stilwell went around for a long time, and the purpose may be this.
"Sell? This, you want to buy our planes? Hu Bin pretended to be very surprised and looked at Stilwell and said.
"Yes, although our country is also developing more powerful aircraft, we are worried that we may not be able to wait that long, and now we must have a new aircraft that can block the attack of the Japanese air force!" Stilwell nodded.
"Oh!" Hu Bin nodded and began to think about it.
"I'm afraid this won't work, we don't have enough planes in Yan'an, and, General Stilwell, you also know that our China is very short of air force units, and now our domestic air force units are not fully arranged, how can we sell them?" Li Dalong said next to him.
"Well, that's true!" Hu Bin also nodded.
"This, this, I hope you can help!" Stilwell heard Hu Bin and Li Dalong say this, took out an envelope from his bag, put it on the table, and pushed the envelope in front of Hu Bin, Hu Bin and Li Dalong looked at him very puzzled. (To be continued.) )
