Chapter 971 He Actually Hanged Up on Me
Zhou Weiguo smiled and then looked at Ruth beside him.
Ruth immediately took out a document from her briefcase.
Zhou Weiguo took the letter and said with a smile, "I don't think it's a question of whether it's worth it or not, but rather that I should drink the fine wine you've collected."
Commander Bai reached out and took the document. It contained Berlin's assistance to the mountain city, and even included the naval and air force technical assistance that the mountain city was currently in the most short supply of.
"Adjutant Li, please take out my bottle of treasured wine. This is what he deserves."
Chief of Staff Luo laughed heartily twice. As he took the document, he said with a smile, "I'm in for a treat today."
After reading the document, he was also surprised and opened his mouth wide for a while before looking at Zhou Weiguo; "Nothing comes easy. They gave us so much, it can't be without any conditions."
Zhou Weiguo nodded. "That's exactly what I need to report to the two commanders."
Commander Bai stood up. "Then let's discuss this matter at the dinner table."
There was a chef at the headquarters, but he was unable to prepare food at the moment, so Adjutant Li went outside to order a table of food.
"Old Li, please take a moment to get the guards out." Zhou Weiguo said.
Little Zhuge, who was still smiling, knew when he heard this that what Zhou Weiguo was going to say next was not something Fang Boni would tell others. After he nodded slightly, Adjutant Li immediately went out and shouted for all the guards to evacuate. He closed the door and went to wait at the stone table in the yard. He seemed to feel that this was not safe either, so he went to the next room and turned on a radio that came from Mandalay.
"The Imperial Army, led by General Terauchi, is advancing towards Delhi. I believe they will soon capture Delhi and liberate the people there from suffering."
Pooh……
Adjutant Li made a bored sound of "Pooh" and switched off the phone before taking out a cigarette. After thinking for a while, he called a soldier over, took out some money and asked him to run a trip. The superiors inside were discussing something, so he had nothing to do, so he ate something to kill time.
In the room, after half of the white wine had gone down, Zhou Weiguo had already explained everything clearly.
Little Zhuge leaned back in his chair. "I understand. This time, your suggestion for the Northern Soviet Union is to disintegrate them from within, using their long-defunct royal family as a breakthrough point. Regarding the Berlin side, we also need to get involved."
"Yes, but what I don't understand is that this matter doesn't seem to be comparable to these technologies. Why would they give us so many benefits?"
Chief of Staff Luo didn't understand either. Little Zhuge thought for a moment and said, "I'm afraid your Uncle Zhang knows more about this matter than I do. I just need to go back and report this matter."
"What do we need to do?" Chief of Staff Luo asked Xiao Zhuge beside him.
Little Zhuge smiled and said, "Whether we do it or not depends on whether we need it."
Of course it is necessary. Not only is it necessary, it will also be an important breakthrough for Shancheng's future Northern Expedition.
At the Zhang Mansion on the outskirts of the mountain city, after listening to Little Zhuge's opinion, General Zhang, still serving as the principal of the military academy, took a sip of tea. "Beimeng, the Sixty-Four Villages of Jiangdong, and Yezi Island—these places have been ours since ancient times. It's just that they bullied the weak and forcibly seized these places when we were weak. For decades, we have never given up on reclaiming them. Now that we have the opportunity this time, why should we give up?"
"Heroes think alike." Little Zhuge laughed twice. "Weiguo also thinks the same."
"He said it well, war is a coexistence of risks and benefits. Although there are casualties, it is more for us to gain more benefits. And now this incident happens to give us this opportunity. Even if Berlin does not participate, we have to participate because we need to take back everything that belongs to us." After Principal Zhang finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Zhuge and took out another agreement and placed it on the table.
"What is this?" Principal Zhang asked as he picked it up with a confused look on his face.
Little Zhuge pointed. "Berlin's military and technological assistance to us involves some ship data from the Air Force and Navy. As for the exchange of technical drawings, I guess we'll have to arrange for someone to go over there and retrieve them in person."
Feeling a bit thirsty, Little Zhuge took two sips from his teacup. "That kid is always smart, but this time he didn't understand the other party's purpose. After all, this transaction isn't completely equal."
Principal Zhang didn't understand either. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's go and see the old man. Maybe he can understand what's going on. We can also report the current situation.
The two went to the old man's residence together. As soon as they entered the corridor, they heard the deafening sound of cursing from inside.
This puzzled the two men, who then stopped the secretary who had just come out and asked, "What's going on?"
It's been a long time since I heard this guy swearing. Now looking at him, it seems that he was angry about something.
The secretary turned and looked inside and said, "The 74th Army and a division of the 5th Army have been fighting in the Ninth War Zone for half a month and have suffered heavy losses. The old man asked Commander Xue to withdraw these two forces for rest and recuperation, but he ended up hanging up the phone and is now in his room, furious."
Xue Lao Hu, Xiao Zhuge and Principal Zhang looked at each other, then smiled bitterly and gestured for him to report.
It was probably because he was really angry. As soon as they came in, they heard the old man complaining.
"He hung up on me. He actually hung up on me. Damn it."
Little Zhuge remained silent. This was a matter concerning his direct line of command in the Central Army, not his personal concern. However, Principal Zhang spoke out, "Anan Korechika's attack this time was fierce. Several divisions of the 10th Army were advancing in parallel, and the Sichuan Army and other detachments had also suffered heavy losses. If they were withdrawn at this time, the entire defense line would likely collapse. Furthermore, the Fourth War Zone was also under heavy attack from the enemy's 21st Army. He was doing this to stabilize the situation."
The old man gulped down his water and said, "Damn it! He doesn't even know how to talk properly."
You didn't explain yourself to them properly. If I'm not mistaken, you're probably using the heavy losses as an excuse to withdraw your troops to the rear for rest and recuperation. Everyone knows your German-equipped divisions fought tooth and nail in the Battle of Shanghai and Nanjing, and the last of them were completely destroyed in the Battle of Wuhan. The 74th and 5th Armies are your strongest and most capable divisions right now. You don't want them to suffer losses, which is understandable, but everyone had a hard time before.
Now that your Central Army has withdrawn, what will the Sichuan Army think? What will the Northwest Army think? And what will my fellow Guangxi people think?
Principal Zhang turned his head to look at the little Zhuge standing there and motioned him to speak, as he was not in a position to continue with this topic.
