Fisher didn't know much about what Tang Cheng was talking about at this moment, but he still listened carefully. "Faced with this situation, what can I do? Do you want me to flatter Americans like the Japanese? That's impossible! No matter what, since this place belongs to me, I can't let it go in vain! What's more, , this is Asia, Asia for Asians, the American military is indeed strong, but I am not without the opportunity and strength to fight back."
Fisher's eyebrows jumped when he heard Tang Cheng's last words. He had experienced the defense of Berlin, and he didn't want to have another tragic battle involving a heavy siege. Tang Cheng, who had been paying attention to the other party's reaction, chuckled at this moment, "Don't worry! The counterattack I'm talking about is not a face-to-face offensive and defensive war with the Americans! The Americans not only have naval guns and aircraft, they also have numerous heavy weapons. Equipment, in a face-to-face offensive and defensive battle, we must be the loser. I am not a fool, how can I use my shortcomings to deal with their strengths."
"There are not many others in Myanmar and Thailand, but there are many mountains and rivers here. Once the rainy season comes, all the heavy equipment is almost useless. Although the armed forces in northern Myanmar are not large in number, they are all good at mountain warfare. As long as The battle line is far away from the coastline, and the American naval guns are useless. When their infantry comes ashore and launches an attack with the cooperation of aircraft, artillery and tanks, we will retreat to the mountains and forests and use the terrain to fight guerrilla warfare with them."
"The strength of the U.S. military is actually only the strength of their military industry and logistics supply delivery capabilities, not the strength of the U.S. military. As long as they are given a large amount of casualties, the U.S. military will choose to slow down the pace and press forward step by step. But here It is Asia, far away from the mainland of the United States. If they want to obtain sufficient logistical supplies, they can only go through Japan and the Philippines nearby. Once they face military expenditure overruns, not to mention within the US military, problems will arise even in the United States."
"So, guerrilla warfare and protracted warfare are the best ways to deal with the massive attack by the US military!" Fisher is a soldier, so he naturally has his own understanding of what Tangcheng said. Since he received the appointment as the commander of the 1st German Infantry Regiment, Fisher began to ponder the real purpose of establishing the German Infantry Regiment in Tangcheng. He felt that it was already very difficult for the Germans who had left their homeland. If they did it again, If they help the tyrants to commit crimes, they will be even worse off than the refugees.
After hearing Fischer's proactive explanation, Tang Cheng couldn't laugh or cry, and said to himself, "Master, I will not leave my own safety in the hands of you German guys!" "Fisher, why do you have such an idea? You have been here for a long time, and you should already know the situation here. Do you think Myanmar or Thailand have the ability to expand externally? Since they cannot expand externally, , then what you are worried about might happen?" Tang Cheng's reverse question left Fisher speechless because he could not give an answer.
After a while, Tang Cheng lit a cigarette, "As I said before, I am the first to accept you. I just want you, professional soldiers, to help me train the armed forces in northern Myanmar. In addition, you are highly educated, and there are many people among you. There are a lot of technical talents, and I need you to help improve the educational level and technical level of northern Myanmar. Later, because there was no way, because there was no one available in northern Myanmar, I thought of forming a German army to help me stabilize the situation in Thailand."
"I just said that the German troops will only be used for internal stability rather than external expansion, so you can rest assured!" Even though Fisher still had doubts in his heart at this moment, he would not do it in front of Tang Cheng. He said it because he felt he couldn't speak to Tangcheng. "Hans told me that next week, there may be a group of German refugees from Europe. I don't know the specific number yet, but Hans said that the Germans coming this time are basically women and children. I am prepared to Place them in the southern region of Thailand.”
"The First Infantry Regiment under your command will also be deployed in the southern region. Later, not only railways and docks will be built here, but also related supporting facilities and infrastructure. You are deployed here because I We must control the coastline of southern Thailand, otherwise the docks and railways I built here will be of no use." Tang Cheng did not make his purpose clear, and Fisher did not seem to want to understand. The two There was a tacit agreement not to continue this topic.
After Tang Cheng finished smoking a cigarette, Fisher remembered that he seemed to have proposed this meeting. Seeing that Tang Cheng seemed to be in a good mood, Fisher finally revealed his purpose. "Boss, I know you want to attract Chinese from other countries in South Asia to settle here. Once you start doing this, the situation in Thailand will not be completely stable. In the past week alone, many violent cases broke out in the areas around Bangkok. Basically, It was all caused by conflicts between local Chinese and local indigenous people."
"The local Chinese are better off. After all, they were all born and raised here, and the conflicts with the local aborigines have not reached the point of life and death. But the Chinese from outside are different. They are strangers to the local aborigines. Once they encounter the locals, If the indigenous people bully or deliberately target, conflicts will immediately escalate into violent cases." Tangcheng actually knew what Fisher said, but he did not prevent these conflicts from occurring.
Tangcheng did not stop it because many of the local troublemakers were those who needed to be cleared away. Those locals in the northern part of Thailand are able to keep their own rules, and Tangcheng will naturally treat them differently. "You don't have to pay attention to civil conflicts. Just leave it to the police. As long as there is no large-scale bloodshed or guns are used, you don't have to pay attention. Remember, you are the army, not the police!"
After Tang Cheng said the last words, he suddenly realized that Fisher and the others might still be stuck in the European way of thinking, which was obviously different from the Asian way of thinking. "Fisher, this is Asia, and Asians think differently from you Europeans! Civil conflicts and even riots, as long as they do not threaten the national level, are the work of the police. The military is a national force and cannot easily intervene. The scope of work of the police system, otherwise there will be a bigger egg.”
Tang Cheng originally thought that Fisher asked to meet with him just to remind himself, but he didn't know that the Germans also have a cunning side. Fisher's real purpose in wanting to see Tang Cheng was for the idle shops in Bangkok. "You mean, your family members want to come here from northern Myanmar to live here, so they hope to use the idle shops in Bangkok to do some small business?" After Fisher revealed the real purpose , Tang Cheng's mood suddenly became bad.
Tang Chengxin said, I originally thought that you, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, was a good guy, but I didn’t expect that you, Fisher, are also a cunning old fox! After the epidemic, Bangkok became quite depressed. Although many Chinese moved here and the market showed signs of recovery, many shops were still idle. Fisher and the others hope that these idle shops can be taken over by their family members, which Tangcheng naturally desires. After all, after the market boom, the biggest beneficiary is Tangcheng itself.
Tang Cheng, who was in a good and bad mood, suddenly remembered another purpose of coming to Bangkok, so he asked Fisher for advice. The place where Tang Cheng and Fisher met was a side hall in the Bangkok Palace. Fisher naturally knew the scale and basic situation of the Bangkok Palace. Knowing that Tangcheng wanted to preserve this place and turn it into a museum-like place, Fisher thought about it for a while and then expressed his opinion. "Boss, although what you said makes sense, my opinion is the same as Mr. Hans's!"
Tang Cheng originally thought that Fisher would choose to support him, but he did not expect that Fisher, like Hans, suggested that the Bangkok Palace should be completely cleaned up. "Boss, this is Thailand, and this palace is also a Thai palace! Although I don't know much about the Chinese, I know that the Chinese and the Thais are two different things! And most importantly, if you want to completely control this place, everything must be done with Things related to the Thai royal family must be completely severed or even erased.”
"This palace is a symbol of the Thai royal family. If they still have descendants, it makes sense for you to stay here. But as far as I know, in the previous epidemic, everyone in the Thai royal family died! You If you want to control this place but leave this palace behind, what will the local Thais think? They will never think that you are a generous person. When they see this palace, they will only choose to make small moves secretly and look for all kinds of things. Opportunities will keep causing you all kinds of trouble!"
Compared with the tactfulness of Zhang Jianghe and Hans, Fisher, who was a soldier, was much more direct. Fisher, who saw that Tang Cheng was not deliberately testing him, chose to tell his true opinion. Fisher's answer made Tang Cheng fall silent. After carefully considering the suggestions of Zhang Jianghe and Hans, and Fisher's answer just now, Tang Cheng found that he had taken it for granted. Not only do I take it for granted, but the memory of later generations affects me to the point that I can no longer listen to opinions.
Taking into account all the suggestions and opinions given by Zhang Jiang and them, Tang Cheng suddenly realized that this palace could not be preserved. If he keeps this palace according to his previous ideas, the local Thai people will have a spiritual sustenance in their hearts, which seems to be a good thing on the surface. But in fact, whenever Thai locals see this palace, they will think of the Thai royal family. When they think of the Thai royal family, they will think of Tangcheng and the Zionist Army. They will definitely do the things Fisher is worried about.
