In the middle of Sichuan, spring is in high spirits. Yuzhou, known as the three great furnaces in China, finally ushered in its own spring.
The atmosphere in Zhongcai Villa was filled with joy. Although it was already the dog days of summer, the faces of the government officials were all as bright as spring breeze. Admiral Chen said with joy:
"If Chu Xiong knew that their bloodshed on Long Pingyang made wedding clothes for the country, I wonder what he would think?
Will he lead the expeditionary force directly back to China? "
Zhong Cai pretended to be angry and said:
"He dares! Without an order from the government, not a single soldier of the expeditionary force can return home. Their mission is to fight to the homeland of Tiaobenji, and then follow Yingjiang to fight in Europe thousands of miles away. This is a conflict between China and Yingjiang. The agreement signed by the country must be implemented without compromise!
Has he awakened yet? "
Little Zhuge Liang habitually pursed his lips and said with great contempt in his heart:
"I have to speak so high-minded, but my intention is to consume the Chinese Expeditionary Force on Tiaobaji and Europa. If they can't be consumed, at least send them to Europa;
Thousands of miles away, it is difficult to come back. The abacus is very loud, and it is easy to scheme against people. "
Admiral Chen didn't care what little Zhuge was thinking. He was very excited now and continued:
"Chu Xiong and his Independence Army are the most capable troops in the Eighth Route Army. It is in the best interest of the national government to send them to Europe, thousands of miles away;
When they return to China, the overall situation has been decided. What can they do with just their few people?
At that time, considering their contribution to China, it would be considered benevolent and righteous for the government to give them official positions!
I suggest that after the next counterattack on Yizhou, the New First Army should stay in Yizhou, so as to preserve an elite division for the country. "
Zhongcai nodded with great satisfaction and couldn't help but praise General Chen in his heart:
“It’s the art of rhetoric that wins my heart!”
Thinking of this, he continued:
"This time Tiaobenji took the initiative to beg for surrender. China still behaves like a great power. We quickly sent people to sign an agreement with them, quickly took over the defense area handed over by the Japanese, and allowed him to evacuate China with his belongings;
We must act quickly and keep it secret. We must not let Yanzhou know about it. We must create a fait accompli as soon as possible without giving the Eighth Route Army and New Fourth Army time to react..."
The secrecy in Shu was a joke. The content they discussed that day was placed on the meeting table of the Yanzhou Standing Committee that night;
Before making the decision, Yanzhou sent a special telegram to the expeditionary force to seek Chu Xiong's opinion.
Chu Xiong's opinion was to take the overall situation into consideration. At this most critical moment when the chickens were about to be defeated, they must avoid giving Shuzhong an excuse to start a civil war;
The Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army continued to develop at their own pace. The North China Military Region of the Eighth Route Army immediately launched a counterattack against the Japs in the north, wiping out all the Japs north of the river.
Don't march into Jianghuai, East China, Central China, South China, and Southwest China for the time being. The New Fourth Army will only make small adjustments.
After Yanzhou received Chu Xiong's suggestion, the Standing Committee discussed it and finally adopted his plan. They agreed that as long as they controlled the north, they would not be afraid of civil war in Sichuan. This time, they would give them enough face and would not follow them. Grab it, otherwise a civil war may start immediately.
The negotiations between the Japanese and Shuzhong will not come to fruition for a while, because Yuren is still holding on to illusions. They only plan to withdraw 200,000 troops from the battlefield inside the Chinese Pass and return to defend the Ryukyu Islands and the mainland.
Chu Xiong judged that the Japanese would have to wait and see the next move of the expeditionary force before they would be willing to withdraw their troops.
Chuxiong and Yanzhou have the same opinion. The first priority is to facilitate the Japanese troops to withdraw from China as soon as possible. Even if it is handed over to Shuzhong, at least in the big pot of China, hundreds of millions of people can be moved as soon as possible. Get out of harm's way.
In order to promote the Japanese troops to withdraw from China as soon as possible, he negotiated with General Stevie and decided to immediately carry out strategic bombing of Jiaopanji and bring the war to the Japanese homeland.
The first strategic bombing of the Foot Pot Chicken was launched in the early morning of a sunny weekend after careful planning.
The formation consisted of 500 B29 strategic bombers (150 were dispatched by the Chinese Expeditionary Force), each carrying 9 tons of napalm bombs, and the target was the Japanese Kyoto.
In order to implement tactical deception, the coalition forces dispatched another 500 fighter jets and 300 bombers to attack Ryukyu, attracting all Japanese fighter jets to the direction of Ryukyu.
On D-day, Saipan, at four o'clock in the morning, the sky turned white. 500 Chinese and Yingjiang coalition fighter planes were ready to go. Everyone was very excited, including Chu Xiong who was far away in Luzon.
He got up early, faced the east, and said to Zhong Guoliang excitedly:
"Old Zhong, they will set off in fifteen minutes. This is the first time that the coalition forces have brought the war to the Japanese homeland;
The hatred between us and the Japanese can even be traced back to the Sino-Japanese War 50 years ago. They have always burned, killed, and looted our homeland. This time, they also have a taste of the war and the broken mountains and rivers!
This is definitely an epoch-making date. All the sacrifices and efforts made for this day are worth it. It will always be a pity not to win on their home soil. From today on, we will no longer have regrets! "
Zhong Guoliang's face was flushed with excitement. As Lao Chu said, all the sacrifices and efforts were worth it. He took over Chu Xiong's words and said:
"Old Chu, I wish I could join their ranks and throw the incendiary bombs of revenge into the enemy's lair. This is the anger of 40 million Chinese people. It can destroy the world, so let them have a taste of being killed. Taste the carnage!”
“Old Zhong, don’t be sorry, this is just the beginning. We not only have to blow them back to the Stone Age, but we also have to board their lair in person and put our dogs in there;
We just need to watch the trick. Don’t worry, you will have no regrets in this life! "
After Chu Xiong finished speaking, the two of them laughed, their eyes shining with longing, which made Zhao Pan'er on the side take a few steps away from them with great disgust.
She looked to the east with the same excitement, wishing she were not a man, otherwise she would also want to fly a plane to the enemy's lair and drop a few bombs. She had no psychological burden to kill the enemy.
"Xiao Meng, do you want to join the Air Force Bomber Group? I allow you to be a bombardier."
Chu Xiong was in a good mood and said to his guard Meng Jiaqi with a smile.
Meng Jiaqi's eyes suddenly shone with light. Just when she was about to agree, Zhong Guoliang glared back and could only say against her will:
"Commander, forget it. My mission is to ensure your safety. This is more important than killing 10,000 Japanese with my own hands!"
Chu Xiong turned to Zhong Guoliang and said:
"You don't need to glare at Xiao Meng. Our position is too high to fulfill this wish. I think Xiao Meng can still do it!"
Six years ago, the Japanese burned down the homes of Jinling and Xiaomeng. Now that we have this opportunity, why not burn down their Kyoto?
Xiao Meng, I'll give you another chance, are you willing to go? Just once. When it's over, you can come back and be my security officer. "
Meng Jiaqi beamed with joy and replied loudly:
"willing!"
Chu Xiong turned to Zhao Paner and said seductively:
"And you?"
Zhao Paner glanced at Meng Jiaqi and then said:
"I'll go with Xiao Meng!"
Chu Xiong laughed and said loudly:
"Old Zhong, do you see that the Chinese people have so many great ambitions, so why worry about the enemy being immortal!"
The time is up, our heroes set out, they are the first batch, Meng Jiaqi, Zhao Pan'er, you are the second batch, blow them up! "
Meng Jiaqi and Zhao Paner replied excitedly:
"yes!"
Thousands of miles away, on the island of Saipan, fighter planes shot into the blue sky like arrows, starting the journey of blowing chickens back to the Stone Age.
