Chapter 53: The Source of Pride

The British prime minister already knew that the Anti-Japanese Federation would not allow them to fight in Southeast Asia, but he had not yet given up the idea of winning over the Anti-Japanese Federation and going to Southeast Asia to be a substitute for them. He believed that if he could persuade the Anti-Japanese League to go south to Southeast Asia, the British would be able to save a lot of troops at that time.

Although it was necessary to prevent them from exporting any communist revolution, it was not a matter of great importance to the Japanese army in front of them. No matter how many troops this anti-coalition force sends to Southeast Asia to participate in the war. But in the absence of their own navy, all supplies were firmly in the hands of the British.

With this, even if these Chinese are strong in combat, they will be able to control zhì at that time. Get them to the battlefield in Southeast Asia, and maybe even keep the entire British colony in Southeast Asia. Compared to some of the things he thinks he can control, there are small mistakes that may occur. How to do it is cost-effective, he still knows this account very clearly.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if you really can't pull it to Southeast Asia to fight. Then they should also be asked to launch a large-scale battle in Manchuria, at least to attract the Japanese troops in Manchuria and China to fight south. And these second-hand equipment that the British are ready to pay are the weights they use to test the pressure of the Anti-United Nations.

As for whether the background of this army is of some red blood, for the British they don't care anymore. Not to mention that they are still in the establishment of the Chinese government, they are enemies of the Chinese government, but as long as it is beneficial to the British, then there is a need to win them over.

Didn't the Soviets look like the British were like beasts of prey? As a result, the war between the Soviet Union and Germany broke out, and the British, who suddenly felt the pressure dropped sharply, immediately sent their equipment over without charging a penny. For the British, if this army were to join the defense of Southeast Asia, how much would the British army be able to save and use what they thought was more critical.

And this British general, who was somewhat overly responsible and held chicken feathers as an arrow, made such a hand in order not to let the equipment aided by Britain be wasted by these Chinese. He is afraid to inform those Chinese in advance, and they will play tricks on many things to hide their true capabilities.

The British did this, of course, with arrogance and contempt, but more importantly, they did not trust the fighting power of the United Nations. The Confrontation League wondered how much of the Japanese army could be held back in Manchuria so that it could not move south. I want to use this method so that I can really investigate the real combat effectiveness of the Anti-Japanese Federation. Instead of being deceived by the means that those Chinese have deceived.

Therefore, Yang Zhen is not wrong to say that the mastermind behind the sudden attack of the US and British delegations is the judgment of the British. And the British made this move, and the real intention behind it, but he made some mistakes. Although the reason was wrong, after all, he guessed the source correctly.

However, no matter what the British did in this, Yang Zhen was uncomfortable in his heart, but for Yang Zhen, what should be done still has to be done. After all, everyone is now allies, at least on the surface, aren't they? What's more, there is such a heavyweight in the delegation.

If the British were to do this alone, he would have sent fighter jets to directly ban their planes from entering the country. The arrogance and contempt behind the British's move were unacceptable even to Yang Zhenxin. But the heavyweight in the American delegation could only let him endure it.

Regarding Chen Bo's complaints, Yang Zhen shook his head and said, "They only informed us now, and what they want is probably a surprise attack." It is clear that the United States and Britain have not yet fully trusted our strength. They think that by doing so, they will see the most real situation, and it is precisely because of this idea that they will do this. ”

"As for now, let's not think about anything else, and do our best to do a good job of reception. As long as it is good for our development and future, as long as there is no need to sell our country, sometimes it is necessary to suffer some grievances. Many times, lowering your head is more than just humiliation. ”

"I will now announce the assignment of work, Chen Bo, your social department is responsible for finding a place to live, preferably not in the city. It doesn't have to be too comfortable, but it must be clean and quiet. At the same time, the security of the perimeter of the Mission's premises, as well as the security of the airport to the Residence, are all arranged by your Social Affairs Department. ”

"You have dispatched the most reliable internal affairs battalion, changed into civilian clothes, and spread it out for me around the station, and the cordon should be as far away as possible. Also, you will scatter all the best people in your hands for me, and keep an eye on all the suspicious people in Harbin City. ”

"Although Harbin has been cleaned up many times since it was regained last year, none of us can guarantee that there are no dead ends. Therefore, in the whole of Harbin, you must be tight inside and loose outside, and you must not only ensure that you do a good job of secrecy work, but also not arouse the suspicion of the Kwantung Army because of excessive movements. ”

"You go back and pick two chefs at once, not only to be good cooks, but also to be the most reliable and have the strictest mouths. All service personnel, including drivers, are also under the responsibility of your Social Affairs Department. I'll leave all these things to you, not only will you have to complete the task within six hours, but you will also make sure that I don't miss a drop. Remember, I want to be foolproof. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Zhen turned his head to Chen Long and said, "During this period, you put aside the other things at hand, and cooperate with Chen Bo to do a good job of monitoring the entire base area during this period." Together with Chen Bo, you come up with a security plan and an emergency plan. I have only one request to you, that is, during this period, Harbin must not be mixed with a dangerous person and Japanese agents. ”

"The request for you and Chen Bo is that from the day the US and British delegations arrive at the base area until they leave, not a single rumor can leak out. It is necessary to ensure the absolute security of the activities of the entire delegation in the base area. I want 100 percent, not 99 percent. ”

After explaining to the two people, Yang Zhen pondered for a while and said to Guo Bingxun: "Old Guo, you have people select ten cars and ten of the most reliable drivers from the inventory of the military region headquarters, and hand them over to Chen Bo in a while." There is also the internal guard of the station, which is in charge of the Second Guard Regiment directly under our military region, and is temporarily transferred to Chen Bo's command during this period. ”

"The guard on the periphery of Harbin should not mobilize other troops. Didn't the 1st Division withdraw to rest? Let them take over the vigilance of the entire Harbin periphery. During this period, the radar unit was asked to closely monitor all the airspace around Harbin 24 hours a day. The aviation units around Harbin should also be prepared for first-class combat. ”

"The itinerary of this US-British joint delegation after arriving in Harbin, you can look at the rough arrangement. We must not only satisfy them as much as possible, but also not let them see our old foundation. Especially some secret things that can't be let them know, they should be withdrawn for the time being. ”

"If they insist on looking at the troops, the troops of a dozen main divisions can be chosen by them. Didn't they want to randomly select some of our troops in order to find out our real training and combat level, and I think they could do exactly what they wanted. In addition, I think it is also possible to make appropriate arrangements for them to observe some tactical exercises at all levels and some daily training of our army. ”

"As for the Fujin Comprehensive Training Base, don't arrange for them to see it. There are too many things that can't be seen there, and it's a bit bad to let them go. If they want to observe a tactical combined exercise at the division and regiment level, they will arrange for it to be conducted at the Yuyuan Field Training Base, which has just been built. ”

Regarding Yang Zhen's arrangement, Guo Bingxun, who knew the seriousness of the matter, pondered for a moment and said, "I think it's okay, our Seventh Division is in the Tangyuan Armored Corps Training Base, and it will be changed to a mechanized division." After the 13th Division was withdrawn, it was also training there, and they could be allowed to visit. ”

"In fact, according to our training program, we have nothing to worry about no matter which division they choose. As the current chief of staff of the Anti-Japanese Federation, I still have this confidence. I also believe that all our troops, no matter which division is drawn out, will be able to stand the test. ”

"Just as you said on the first day, we have qualified political affairs, excellent military skills, excellent work style, and strong support, which each of our troops possesses. Whether the Americans or the British, no matter what kind of prejudice they hold against the Chinese, they can only stop at us. ”

"We don't just want them to convince that we don't just have the ability and strength to defeat Japan in the end. It is also necessary to convince them that even if there is a stronger opponent coming, we are still fearless and can defeat them in the end. Let them, and all those who look down on the Chinese, know what a real Chinese army is. ”

When he said this, Guo Bingxun, who has always given people a steady and elegant appearance and temperament, can be described as a rare face full of arrogance. This kind of arrogance is not the arrogance that the second ancestor and the nouveau riche piled up with money, nor is it the arrogance that the Central Army is accustomed to being born by the Son of Heaven, but the arrogance of the victorious army on the battlefield that despises an opponent.

And this arrogance, as the chief of the general staff of the Anti-Japanese Federation, carefully planned every battle with Yang Zhen, and jointly brought out an invincible iron army, Guo Bingxun can have and is qualified to have. Because of this army from scratch, from weak to strong, from the defeat of more than 100 remnants to today's army of hundreds of thousands of strong soldiers, from top to bottom is permeated with his countless efforts.

The Anti-Japanese Federation has come to the point where it is today, if Yang Zhen's contribution is more in the overall "strategic vision" and tactics at all levels. Guo Bingxun's merit lies in the fact that he has truly perfected the system of the Anti-Japanese Federation, formulated a more standardized system for the Anti-Japanese Federation, trained a large number of qualified operational staff officers, and built a complete staff system.

Yang Zhen often said that without Guo Bingxun, the chief of staff, no matter how capable he is, even if he is three heads and six arms, the Anti-Japanese Federation will not be able to go where it is today. It is precisely because of these that the arrogance on Guo Bingxun's face is taken for granted by all the cadres of the Anti-Japanese Federation present.

Of course, behind the arrogance, it is more about the confidence. If we talk about the sound equipment system, the Anti-Japanese Union may not be as good as the Americans and the British. In terms of the military education system, there is also a certain gap between the crash course education of the Anti-Japanese Union and the US and British armies. However, when it comes to combat effectiveness, the Anti-Japanese Federation believes that it is not inferior to any army in the world.

It is precisely this confidence that makes Guo Bingxun have this arrogance. All the field units of the whole army, as they choose, he has such a confidence. Kwok Bingxun, who has studied in France for many years, is not ignorant of the arrogant and critical personality of the British.

In the face of the British, he dared to do this, that is, he had absolute confidence in his troops. If he didn't have this confidence and confidence, with Guo Bingxun's personality and personality, he would never have said such a thing. And this confidence is not blind self-confidence, it is obtained by the troops on the battlefield with the results of battle.
