my bright sword career

Facing Gao Hongming's complaint, Du Yuming and Luo Zhuoying smiled, and then there was emotion on their faces.

Luo Zhuoying sighed softly: "When the country is in ruins and the family is in ruins, what else can we soldiers do besides abandoning this body? It's just that since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness have been difficult to balance.

I think it has been 14 years since I joined the army in the 28th year of the Republic of China. For more than 20 years, I have spent more time with my family. Now I think about it, but I am ashamed of my parents, wife and children! "

Looking at Luo Zhuoying's white hair at the temples, and at Du Yuming who was just drinking, Gao Hongming secretly sighed in his heart.

The current era can be regarded as one of the darkest eras in China. In the words of later generations, it belongs to the semi-feudal and semi-colonial era.

There are imperialist oppression and plunder outside, and warlord melee inside. It can be said that the people are in dire straits, and the people are miserable. It can be said that this era gives the people only pain and despair. No one knows where the way out for China is.

This kind of pain and despair is unimaginable to those saints who can only type keyboards in later generations.

But even in such a period, there are still a small group of elites in China who have not given up in this era, and they have not stopped exploring and pursuing the truth.

Although the paths they took were not the same or even conflicted, their ideals and goals were the same, both to make this country and nation stand tall in the world again.

Anyone who accuses them from the perspective of God is playing hooligans.

Just like Gao Hongming, even though he was well aware of Huaxia's later development path and their later ending after traveling from later generations, this did not hinder his admiration for the two of them.

He asked himself, if he switched roles with them, he didn't even know if he could persevere like them for decades.

Maybe it was because the topic was too boring, so Du Yuming quickly changed the subject, and he lifted the jug and poured a glass of wine for Gao Hongming: "Brother Gao, your arrival made me and Officer Luo overjoyed.

Today, the ammunition, food and salaries needed by the expeditionary force depend on the United States, which is also the biggest reliance on Stilwell's daring to claim command of the expeditionary force.

Before you arrived, although Chief Luo and I kept backing down, Stilwell was still pressing hard. When the air force led by Doolittle and Chennault arrived, Stilwell even threatened with air support.

We had no choice but to ask the chairman for help, but we didn't expect the chairman to send you here. Now we are finally relieved.

With the support of the aircraft you led, our expeditionary force no longer has to look at the faces of the Americans. "

"not necessarily!"

Gao Hongming shook his head and said with a sneer, "Mr. Du, you probably underestimated that Stilwell. In my opinion, his ultimate goal is not just to command the expeditionary force?"

"Not just the command of the expeditionary force?"

Du Yuming was slightly taken aback for a moment, then he couldn't help laughing and said, "Then what does he want? He doesn't want to be the president of China, does he?"

"It's not, but it's not far away!"

Gao Hongming didn't laugh, but looked at the two of them and said word by word: "What Stilwell and the Americans want is the command of all our Chinese armies!"

"what?"

"how can that be?"

Luo Zhuoying and Du Yuming were stunned. They never thought that Gao Hongming would say such a shocking thing.

Du Yuming couldn't help shouting: "Are the Americans crazy? How dare they?"

Luo Zhuoying also stared wide-eyed, in disbelief: "No way, how could the Americans be so unwise, why do they think that we will obediently hand over the military power to them?"

"Of course they will."

Seeing the unbelievable faces of Luo Zhuoying and Du Yuming, Gao Hongming rubbed his cheeks.

Historically, Stilwell was indeed the first Chief of Staff of the China War Zone sent to China after the outbreak of the Pacific War, and indeed many people in later generations praised him.

But in fact, in Gao Hongming's opinion, no one sitting in his seat could do worse than Stilwell.

And this guy also has a bad habit of giving people nicknames. In another historical time and space, he called the chairman "Peanut", and thought that Chairman Jiang was ambitious and talented. The contradiction between the problem and him is very sharp.

And what about himself?
In fact, he is also a person with great ambition and talent in the eyes of others.

He was even called "three-star company commander" or "four-star battalion commander" by many people at that time.

It means: Stilwell is definitely very competent and excellent as a company commander or battalion commander.But as a general, Stilwell was unqualified.

Not only was Generalissimo Jiang very dissatisfied with him, but Chennault, who was an American, also had a low opinion of Stilwell. "He has a fiery personality, acrimonious, and very arrogant." his evaluation.

What Gao Hongming couldn't bear the most was that in another time and space, after the failure of the expeditionary army, this guy actually left more than [-] expeditionary army soldiers and fled directly to India with the headquarters. There was no news for three weeks in a row.

This also led to more than [-] expeditionary troops without a leader. Even Chairman Jiang was notified through the US delegation in China before he knew that this guy had arrived in India.

This kind of behavior should be shot in the army of any country, but under the distorted reports of the American media, Stilwell turned into a hero, and behind this "hero" are the bones of tens of thousands of expeditionary troops .

Although Stilwell was not solely responsible for the failure of the expeditionary force, he, as one of the commanders of the expeditionary force, was also to blame.

And it was such a person who sent reports to Roosevelt over and over again, explaining to him that the U.S. government should take over the command of the Chinese army and put them under the unified command of the U.S. generals.

In the end, the conflict between him and Chairman Jiang broke out, and finally got out of hand.

Luo Zhuoying and Du Yuming were still sitting in their seats, silently digesting the news.

It took a long time for Luo Zhuoying to let out a long breath, "It seems that I was too naive before, always thinking that Stilwell's arguing for military power was due to character problems. In fact, this is not Stilwell's problem alone, but the United States. Consensus at the highest level."

"Mr. Luo, you have finally figured it out." Gao Hongming let out a long breath, "Stilwell was at best pushed by the Americans to stand on the stage, and it was Roosevelt and those high-level people who really spied on the command of the national army.

Think about it, once the Americans take control of the command of the national army and hold our aid supplies to China, after a two-pronged approach, will the national army still be the national army in a few years? "

The faces of Du Yuming and Luo Zhuoying both changed. They are both people who are used to leading soldiers. Of course, they know that the most important thing to control an army is nothing more than command power and money bags.

If the Americans control these two things completely, let alone three years, I am afraid that the national army will have to change color in less than two years.
