How about Chapter 227? How about a different king? (Third update!)
“Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading.” Du Yuming said with emotion.
If he hadn’t come to Cun Yunsheng to learn from him, I’m afraid the expeditionary army would have suffered heavy casualties in the next expedition to Tianzhu.
First of all, a non-combat attrition is enough to give him a headache, not to mention the environment in Tianzhu, where malaria and other diseases are rampant.
Now with Cun Yunsheng’s suggestion, he knew what to do next.
That is, if you have something to ask the natives, you don’t have to worry about dying anyway, because the follow-up will only be sent in a steady stream.
What he has to do is to preserve the vitality of the expeditionary force.
“Brother Guangting was joking, it’s just that he has dealt with the British a lot, and knows that these foreigners can’t be trusted. Our ancestors were right, if they are not of my race, they must have different minds.” Cun Yunsheng chuckled.
Compared to the previous Yu Xiaoqing, he believed that Du Yuming would definitely have a longer memory.
They have all been tricked by the British. If we don’t have a long memory, we will really be in trouble.
“Well, we can only blame us for having too little experience. I didn’t expect that the world’s largest power would actually harm friendly forces like this. The key is that we can’t let go of a single fart.”
“Brother Yunsheng, do you know that kind of frustration?” Perhaps out of familiarity, Du Yuming began to reveal some truth.
Actually, the overall performance of the last expedition was pretty good.
Whether it is Mandalay or later Tonggu, overall it is not very bad.
At least several times stronger than the British army.
Had it not been for the British army being too cunning, the outcome would have been unpredictable.
The results of it?
The British army does not need to bear responsibility.
The entire responsibility rests with Du Yuming alone.
If it weren’t for this Tianzhu crisis, no one would be willing to expedition to Tianzhu, and it is estimated that Du Yuming would have to sit on the bench for a while.
Logically speaking, he is not the commander of the expeditionary force, he is only the deputy commander, and it is not his turn to take the blame.
The results of it?
The first two are fine, so he takes the blame.
That is to say, Du Yuming was stupid. If it were Cun Yunsheng, he would directly push a staff officer to take the blame.
Even a trainee staff officer.
The reason is also very simple. He did not convey the order in time.
But, Du Yuming is too honest.
“Brother Guangting, I know your suffering. As long as you are willing to trust me in your next actions, I guarantee that your one hundred thousand expeditionary force will never be in the same situation as last time.” Cun Yunsheng said confidently.
“In addition, you can also keep in touch with the New First Army.”
Hearing this, Du Yuming’s eyes lit up. Since Cun Yunsheng said this, it meant that he had contact with the New First Army.
Thinking of this, Du Yuming nodded, keeping in mind what Cun Yunsheng said.
Next, the two people discussed some details.
The main thing is that Cun Yunsheng taught Du Yuming how to use the contradiction between Stilwell and Wavell to ask for weapons.
One sentence!
If we are not armed to the teeth and meet the standards of the US military, we will definitely not take a step forward.
The best way is to occupy a large food supply area.
Replenish food while moving forward.
Prevent being manipulated by Stilwell’s logistics.
To put it bluntly, it means raising the bandits to respect themselves.
Don’t be a fool to be a gunman.
I have to say that Cun Yunsheng’s words really opened Du Yuming’s eyes.
At the same time, he was secretly glad that he had come to learn the scriptures, otherwise he would not have known there were so many twists and turns.
After Du Yuming left, Meng Fan curled his lips.
“Sir, it’s a good thing that Stilwell didn’t let you go to Tianzhu, otherwise, Tianzhu would probably have to be renamed.”
Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng laughed.
“No, Tianzhu is so big, even if I am a fat man, I can’t eat it.”
“You are being modest. With your behavior, the next one who will be unlucky will definitely be the British army. You are just inviting a wolf into the house.” Meng Fanlao shook his head, looking like he didn’t believe it.
He is also happy to see the British army being unlucky now.
As Cun Yunsheng said, the British army did a lot of immoral things.
Now, of course, is the time to pay off the debt.
“But are you sure there won’t be any problems? After all, the Japanese army plundering Tianzhu is not necessarily a good thing for us. The US military’s aid will definitely be given priority to Tianzhu.” Meng Fangliao said with some worry.
Who knew that Cun Yunsheng was not worried at all, but said happily.
“So, I have a reason to ask Major Fertig to speed up.”
“His current speed is still too slow. Planes, cannons, and tanks have just been completed at the aircraft assembly plant, but they are just renovating some old aircraft, and they are still far from building airplanes, let alone tanks and cannons. “
Hearing this, Meng Fanglia couldn’t help but give a thumbs up.
“You are plotting against others and not giving them a chance to breathe.”
“Hahahaha, who told him not to deal with Stilwell? Now that Stilwell is not strong enough, we have to let him show his own value. When the time comes, isn’t it Stilwell’s face that will be slapped?” Cun Yunshengqing Laugh.
“I don’t know when William’s equipment will arrive. With them, our arsenal can speed up.”
“Otherwise we just rely on picking up rags on the battlefield, and we don’t know when it will be completed.”
Meng Fan was confused and asked.
“Isn’t there still equipment in Bangkok? Can’t it be used?”
Cun Yunsheng sighed and said helplessly.
“Who would use the old ones when there are new ones? What’s more, those tattered ones are not attractive at all.”
Siam’s industrial level is just that, not as good as the arsenal level in mountain cities.
Even the captured weapons, he didn’t like any of them. He had them all collected first, then packaged and sold to the Persian chiefs.
The chiefs at this time were still very poor, but it didn’t matter.
People have land.
At that time, he will sign an agreement and let him develop this land for a hundred years, which will be enough to repay the cost of these weapons.
It is no exaggeration to say that oil can be dug out from under people’s toilets.
“Stilwell, this little old man, is unreliable. He promised to introduce businessmen to me, but he has yet to be seen. He is just like a British guy, he is still arrogant at heart.”
“I always think that they are talking to us from a position of strength, and they are superior. In fact, if they have the same weapons and equipment, what qualifications do they have to talk to us on equal terms?” Cun Yunsheng sneered.
For him, it’s not a fun thing.
“Huh? Commander, with the same weapons and equipment, can we really win?” Meng Fanliao said somewhat unconfidently.
Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng looked like he hated iron.
“Don’t think that the US military is very strong. Their industrial strength is indeed very strong, but it is not that outrageous, and they only have geographical advantages.”
“In terms of high technology, it’s not as good as Germany. That’s why I want to get equipment from Germany.”
“Don’t forget the German Armsmen. They fought against the Japanese army back then. They were still the elite troops of the Japanese army.”
“If we had thirty or fifty fully equipped German armorers, do you think the little devil would still dare to bare his teeth at us?”
“Promise to be extremely well-behaved, and even fear that some soldiers on our side will get lost.”
Cun Yunsheng’s words left Meng Fanglao dumbfounded, and he didn’t know what to say for a moment.
He never thought that he would be so strong?
But looking at Cun Yunsheng’s expression, it doesn’t look fake.
Actually, during this period, Meng Fanxiao also felt it. After changing their clothes, they did suppress the Japanese army.
A regiment dares to challenge an alliance in a one-on-one battle.
Even able to defeat the Japanese army without the ability to fight back.
If the equipment is really equivalent, the Japanese army may not necessarily be their opponent. “Okay, this is all for the future. There is one more thing that I need to discuss with you now.” Cun Yunsheng looked at Meng Fan and expressed the troubles in his heart.
“What’s the matter?” Meng Fan looked at Cun Yunsheng with confusion on his face.
“I want to change a king for Siam.” Cun Yunsheng expressed his thoughts.
Hearing this, Meng Fan was stunned.
Your family members don’t want to be the king themselves, right?
It’s not impossible. If we get Stilwell’s support, there will definitely be no problem.
But on the key question, Stilwell would not agree.
“What are you thinking? You don’t think I want to be the king, do you?” Cun Yunsheng immediately saw something in Meng Fan’s eyes and said angrily.
“Isn’t it?” Meng Fanxiao asked subconsciously.
“Rolling, rolling.” Cun Yunsheng glared, and then began to tell the history of the Siamese royal family.
After hearing this, Meng Fan was stunned. He did not expect that the Siamese royal family had such a tortuous history.
The founding king of the current dynasty was actually the founding minister of another king.
As a result, he stabbed his own king in the back and became the king himself.
What’s even more ridiculous is that the original king turned out to be from Guangdong Province.
The same place as the snake’s butt.
“Is this all true?” Meng Fangliao asked in confusion.
“Nonsense, when have I ever told lies?” Cun Yunsheng glared.
“What do you think of my plan? To support Zheng Xin’s descendants to become the king?”
Forcing Siam to surrender was a bit difficult.
After the four navies attacked Alexandria, it had many impacts, in addition to some turmoil in various colonies of the British Empire.
The rest are just wallflowers like Siam who continue to wait and see.
Therefore, it is a bit unrealistic for Cun Yunsheng to use force to force Siam to surrender.
After thinking for a long time, Cun Yunsheng decided to change the king, so that Siam could be rationalized to surrender.
“It’s not impossible. Didn’t our ancestors all play this way? As long as the big families in the city support it, there will be no problem.” Meng Fanlao thought for a while, feeling more and more that this plan could still be implemented successfully.
“The only trouble is that Stilwell needs to agree. If he denies our plan, it will be very troublesome.”
Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng shook his head.
“Stilwell will definitely agree. Once the King of Siam whom we support chooses to join the Allied Forces, the blow to the Japanese army will be huge. Even for Stilwell, this is a great achievement.”
In fact, for the Allies, especially those led by Britain and the United States, the change of a king in Siam was nothing at all.
Even, in the eyes of the Allies, the entire Far East was just one country.
“In that case, you can give it a try, but it’s best to contact the big Chinese families first.” Meng Fanlia emphasized again.
“Well, I will ventilate with them first.” Cun Yunsheng nodded.
…
On the other side, when Du Yuming returned to Kunming, the first thing he did was to send a telegram to Stilwell, saying that a hundred thousand expeditionary force would be dispatched within a week.
But before that, they need weapons and equipment, etc.
At the same time, it also emphasizes the importance of artistic equipment.
The meaning is obvious, that is, he only wants beautiful equipment and equipment, and he will not go without beautiful equipment.
In addition, it also required the right to command the indigenous troops.
From here it can be seen that Du Yuming’s progress is no longer as stupid as before, waiting for Stilwell to distribute.
Stilwell, who received the telegram, looked gloomy after reading it.
Fine art equipment for more than 100,000 people.
It’s not like nothing!
The key point is that his original plan was to have half American equipment and half British equipment.
As a result, the opponent now only needs American equipment.
Considering that the overall performance of the last expeditionary force operation was not bad.
Although Du Yuming privately withdrew the expeditionary force at the last critical moment, the opponent’s military ability was pretty good.
I thought about it and agreed.
As for indigenous command rights?
Stilwell has no interest in this stuff at all.
What can tens of thousands of indigenous people do?
Only suitable for carrying supplies and the like.
As a result, I regretted it a month later.
Because the Sichuan Army sent nearly 200,000 natives.
When Du Yuming received the telegram, he was suddenly overjoyed.
As expected, as long as you master Stilwell’s weaknesses, it’s very easy to take advantage of the opponent.
Now as long as he transfers these more than 100,000 people to Imphal, they can immediately change their clothes into art mechanics.
For a time, Du Yuming was filled with great pride.
Yu Xiaoqing, who was also in southwest Yunnan, was not in such a good mood.
He did not expect that he had just been promoted to deputy commander and had not had time to be happy for a few days.
As a result, we received orders for an expedition.
This makes Yu Xiaoqing incredible!
Why do we need to go on an expedition again?
When I saw that the expedition place was Tianzhu, I was instantly dumbfounded.
Why go so far?
But the transfer order was very clear, and within a month all the 100,000 expeditionary troops arrived at Imphal to change gear.
Everyone will switch to American equipment.
Seeing this, Yu Xiaoqing understood why he was transferred to the expeditionary force.
Artists are the hottest topic at the moment.
Now it is possible to organize more than 100,000 artillery troops at one time, and the British pay the bill. At this time, more people must be added.
The Yu family seems to be quite powerful, but compared with the real faction leaders, it is still far behind.
Now that I have this opportunity, I will naturally not give it up.
So, Yu Xiaoqing could only obey the order.
The only thing that surprised him was that Tang Ji actually escaped this expedition again.
He was directly transferred to Kunming with a transfer order. The specific position is unknown.
I have to say, this guy is really good at studying.
“I hope this expedition will go smoothly. The British army cannot be trusted, and the natives are even less trustworthy.” Yu Xiaoqing firmly remembered what Cun Yunsheng said.
Actually, he really got it wrong this time.
That means the British army cannot be trusted, but the natives can really believe it.
Compared to how busy they were here, the New First Army was having a good time there, especially after they learned that a new expeditionary force was going to be dispatched, they stopped immediately.
It is said that they want to build barracks for the expeditionary force and so on.
Stilwell cannot yet say that they did something wrong.
With more than 100,000 people, there must be stable camps and other bases. Otherwise, with so many people in the wild, problems can easily arise.
“I didn’t expect Du Guangting to make a comeback.” Zheng Dongguo looked at the latest telegram and sighed.
It’s the third update! Keep making adjustments!
