Chapter 94: Fog City (6)

When the meeting was in full swing, Dai Li suddenly interrupted the party and said something by translating Liu Zuo.

Wu Ming listened carefully and found that the old man was explaining the false rumors outside, which roughly meant to ask American friends not to believe bad things about him. He was not Himmler, but Dai Li, the commander-in-chief. He was a supportive person, not a "Gestapo in China", a "killer devil", and an enemy of the democratic system.

It seems that this is not the first time that such an explanation and defense is that most Americans seem very ordinary and have no expression of surprise at all.

Wu Ming couldn't help but feel a little funny when he saw Dai Li expressing his meaning in dialects he couldn't understand or in Chinese that he could understand. Some things did not require debate or explanation. Dai Li's actions would easily have the opposite effect.

"Brother Liu." Chen Zui came over and said softly: "I have forgotten to ask about something."

"What's the matter?" Wu Ming nodded with a smile, "Brother Shen just say it."

"This, Brother Liu came back from overseas. I wonder if there are any words?" Chen Zui said: "When you award merit tomorrow, if you have any words, it will be friendly to the name."

Wu Ming scratched his head. He had enough names and really ignored the habit of Chinese people. "Well, can I think one now?"

"Okay." Intoxicated couldn't help but laugh, "As long as it's not too difficult to speak."

"Andy Lau, the name is, the name is Hua Jian." Wu Ming rolled his eyes and thought for a while, and said, "Brother Chen, what do you think?"

"Huajian, China Health, good. Not bad." He nodded and praised, "It has implications and meaningful."

"Hehe." Wu Ming laughed dryly, using this to hide his embarrassment.

At this time, Dai Li had already delivered a defense speech, waved his hand to signal the band to continue, and then walked towards Wu Ming.

"Brother Liu, I forgot to remind you about something." Dai Li frowned slightly and said, "Come on, come here and have a talk with me."

Wu Ming put down his wine glass and followed Dai Li to the sofa in the corner of the hall and sat down.

"The Yunnan Expeditionary Force crossed the Nujiang River to conduct a counterattack, and now blocked the foot of Songshan, with heavy casualties." Dai Li said slowly: "The day and night before, two elite companies of Rongyi Division 3 sneaked up on the high ground of Songshan's main peak, trying to take a beheading operation to destroy the Japanese command center. Unexpectedly, before firmly establishing a foothold, it fell into the Japanese fire ambush circle. The fierce battle was dawn, and only two injured soldiers broke out." After pausing, he noticed that Wu Ming frowned. Dai Li continued: "As far as I know, after receiving the report on the situation in Songshan, someone had already advised the Chairman to transfer the Rangers to the battle."

"The Rangers are not a panacea." Wu Ming said thoughtfully: "I don't know the actual situation. So I can't guarantee that it will definitely work if I go there. After all, the Rangers are not very suitable for combat in certain specific environments."

"Well, you're right." Dai Li nodded and agreed: "Before or after the award of a medal tomorrow, as usual, because you are awarding a medal alone, the chairman will definitely receive you separately to show comfort. You may ask what you mean by the Chairman of the Battle of Songshan. Just deal with it as you said just now. Neither you must say it, nor do you say anything discouraged. You should wait until you understand the situation. I really don't want our own elites to throw them into the sea of ​​blood for nothing!"

"I understand." Wu Ming nodded and said, "Boss Dai, can you find some existing information about Songshan? I want to study it first."

"No problem." Dai Li pretended to be affectionate and patted Wu Ming on the shoulder, with an expression that I was very optimistic about you.

……………………………………………………………………

In Huangshan, Chongqing, Wu Ming, led by a man wearing a gray long gown, walked into Chairman Jiang's official residence. In a sense, it should be regarded as the imperial palace in ancient times.

However, the layout here is not as good as a palace at all, and even the arrangement of ordinary wealthy families is not enough. The rooms in this building are empty, with no flowers, pictures, no hanging scrolls, and no decorative cloth on the walls. There are no precious decorations and antiques.

After reaching the last big room, Wu Ming saw Chairman Jiang and the Grand Marshal of China. Chiang Kai-shek stood at the desk in a yellow military uniform, without armed straps, badges, medals and ribbons, and even wearing traditional Chinese old black cloth slippers. It is said that although these black cloth shoes do not look very exquisite, they feel very comfortable to wear on the back.

Wu Ming stood at the door, respecting him straight

, shouted loudly in his mouth: "Report."

Chiang Kai-shek did not speak, but just nodded slightly to Wu Ming and pointed his right hand at a long sofa in the room.

Wu Ming walked over and sat down gently. The too quiet atmosphere in the room made Wu Ming feel a little uncomfortable.

The man in a gray gown walked in with a clerk-like head, which seemed to mark the beginning of the meeting, because Chiang Kai-shek spoke with his voice slowly and clearly.

"This time, Hua Jian led the Rangers to first kill the generals and seize the flag, and then led the surprise troops to airdrop to capture Myitkyina. This made contributions to the country and expanded the international influence of the national army. I know all these."

Hua Jian, Oh, this is talking about me! Although Wu Ming was a little strange, he just started the word "di" yesterday, how could he know today? Moreover, Chiang Kai-shek's Zhejiang accent sounded a little difficult, but he still understood. Wu Ming stood up modestly and said, "It's timely, and there's some luck. In addition, the soldiers are willing to fight desperately, so his subordinates dare not take credit."

"Sit down." A smile appeared on Chiang Kai-shek's face, which made his yellow face a little angry. "It's no secret that since the War of Resistance Against Japan, although there have been victories in combat against the Japanese army, there are few examples of winning with fewer victory. The performance of the Rangers made foreigners realize that if the weapons and equipment of the National Army can be strengthened, and after rigorous training, the combat power will be enough to surpass the Japanese and will be enough to shoulder greater responsibilities."

Wu Ming nodded deeply in agreement, but he felt a little dissatisfied. He said that he was not trained enough, but he agreed, but he wanted to blame the outcome of the war on weapons and equipment, which was a one-sided loss.

"This, special war is a good method." Chiang Kai-shek sat down and drank a sip of water. "Catching the thief first, capturing the king, shooting people first, shooting horses first, and small troops, maneuvering and flexible, replacing strong attacks with cleverness. Now not only the national army, but also foreigners are very interested in the actions of the Rangers."

"Even so, special operations have limitations." Wu Ming interrupted: "It wins suddenly, mysteriously, and has a great dependence on time, geography, climate, etc., and it is different from ordinary guerrilla warfare. It is to quickly fight and quickly collect important enemy targets, rather than persisting for a long time like guerrilla warfare."

Chiang Kai-shek listened thoughtfully and nodded to Wu Ming to continue speaking.

"The difference between special forces and regular troops is that they have stricter training, but more flexible combat." Wu Ming continued: "After all, most of the tasks performed by special forces are carried out in the heart of the enemy, and they will encounter various unexpected situations. This requires the commander to make a temporary decision instead of mechanically acting as planned. Otherwise, they may be surrounded by heavy troops, severely damaged, or even annihilated the entire army."

"Is it like you were leading the team leader from a plane to a parachute at an altitude of 600 feet?" Chiang Kai-shek glanced at the clerk who was making records and said, "If he had been acting according to the original plan at that time, then this surprise attack that could be recorded in history would end in failure!"

"It can be said that." Wu Ming nodded, "This also shows that special operations mainly rely on unexpected events. Sometimes they have to be beyond the enemy's expectations, and even their own people are surprised. Creativity determines the method, and the method determines the difference in the results."

"Creative?" Chiang Kai-shek was very interested in this new word and said with a smile: "I heard that Hua Jian traveled around the world, had extensive knowledge and unique insights, which was indeed interesting."

"The Chairman has been too much, this is just some of my immature views and views." Wu Ming said humbly: "The long sword has the use of a long sword, and the dagger has the use of a dagger. It makes it difficult for those who are used to using a long sword to slash and kill with a dagger to fight with a dagger. If you fail to kill the enemy, you will easily hurt yourself by mistake."

Wu Ming's statement made Chiang Kai-shek feel a very strange feeling about him. Many people habitually say polite words when talking to him, with a humble and respectful attitude, while Wu Ming's talkative and without any stage fright is different. Moreover, Wu Ming's metaphor is very appropriate. Isn't it just for those who are used to using long swords to use daggers? Although the dagger is sharp, it is not used properly, but it does not achieve the expected effect.
