Chapter 268 Planning Big Events
The entire 15th Division was destroyed, which immediately shocked the Allied Southeast Asia Theater Command.

This is not in the far away place of Jin. Anything that happens there will lose its freshness.

But now, for the first time, under the eyes of the Allied Command, a reorganized division, even a garrison division, was killed in Xiaotian, which was a major event that they rarely encountered.

"Joe, your vision is indeed good. The second theater expeditionary force group that you urged to find is indeed worthy of elites." General Louis Mengbatton, the commander-in-chief of the theater, said a little sourly.

There is no way, when he was in command of the troops, he lost consecutive battles and almost lost all of Daiying's territory in Southeast Asia to Xiaotian.

Now the deputy commander, General Qiao, is striving to gather the expeditionary force from the mainland.

It was only at the beginning of the war that they achieved such a brilliant victory in annihilating a division.

General Louis naturally had a sour taste.

"Louis, this is our victory. It won't take long for me to drive the little days away from here. Isn't this the result you want?" General Joe said to him with a smile on his pipe.

Gao Jianwu's expeditionary army group had such an outstanding performance, which really surprised him, but it was an unexpected surprise.

After listening to Colonel Smith's report, the expeditionary force group can completely kill the 15th Division.

For General Qiao, this was not too unexpected. After all, they had already killed the divisions of two little devils in Jindi.

But it was surprising that he could kill the 15th Division so quickly without causing too many casualties.

Colonel Smith reported to him the course of the battle. In this battle, what Smith saw was Gao Jianwu's command, and he killed the 15th Division with almost no effort.

In particular, Gao Jianwu can use surgically precise artillery attacks, destroy the enemy's artillery positions at the beginning, and then attack the enemy's permanent defense forts at fixed points. This artillery command talent is simply appalling.

But for General Joe, this is a very cool thing.

He even wanted to go directly to the front to observe a battle commanded by Gao Jianwu himself.

According to Colonel Smith, watching such a battle is simply a kind of enjoyment.

However, the Allied Theater Command has a lot of things going on, not only the battles on the southern front, but also the northern front, which require them to coordinate and command in a timely manner. For the time being, General Qiao can't find time to come here.

General Joe brought his thoughts back to his eyes, and continued to speak to General Louis.

"Louis, things on the southern front don't require much attention from us now, and they can handle them directly here. We see that the expeditionary force on the northern front is not going very well, and they need reinforcements. When will your troops Can you go into battle and pinch the little devil?"

General Lewis looked at General Joe to make sure he was not joking.

"Joe, you know that my troops, mainly from South Asia, don't have much combat capability. We have no way to fight against the main division of the little devils. We only have the ability to undertake security tasks."

General Louis directly stated that these are open secrets, and he has nothing to hide.

But General Qiao wanted him to do this, otherwise he would not know how to speak next.

"General Louis, in view of the situation on the northern front, it seems that there is no other way.

Fortunately, our southern line is progressing smoothly, which is good news.

Since this is the case, let's continue to strengthen our southern front troops in terms of resource allocation. Their offensive should be able to pull some of the northern front enemies over.

It is equivalent to reducing pressure on the northern line in disguise. "

General Joe looked at General Louis. Although he didn't say it clearly, it was obvious that he was already somewhat dissatisfied with General Louis's men occupying the latrine. There are only so many logistics resources. If you have more, others will have less.

Since your troops can't fight, then stay aside and give up resources to those who can fight.

General Qiao's remarks may have added hundreds or even thousands of tons of weapons and ammunition supplies to the expeditionary army group.

It's just that Gao Jianwu doesn't know about these high-level exchange tricks.

He still had a big thing to do, but he didn't have much confidence in his own ideas, so he secretly pulled Ding Wei aside to discuss.

"Old Ding, I want to occupy this place, what method should we use together?"

When Ding Wei heard this, he was a little dumbfounded.

Is this Gao Jianwu already so drifting?
Now I dare to think about expanding the territory, this is the site where the Allied forces brought the British.Isn't this forcing the other party to turn their backs?
"Old Ding, don't get me wrong. What I want to say is that according to the information provided by my people, there may be a huge copper mine here, and there is a nickel mine not far north of Mandalay. We want to solve the domestic copper mine. The shortage of strategic resources such as nickel and nickel must be controlled here, even if it is not controlled in name, it can be controlled secretly in fact."

Seeing Ding Wei's expression, Gao Jianwu knew that he had misunderstood what he meant, so he quickly added an explanation.

"That's right, you startled me, I thought you wanted to take this place as your own territory."

Ding Wei smiled and said.

"If it's just secretly controlled, I have an idea.

You can see that many local armed forces have sprung up here, and the little devils control the big cities here, and they can't control the localities.

We might as well secretly fund a local armed force for our use and strengthen their strength, so that we can actually control this place, but it is still the territory of the Allied forces in name. "

Ding Wei deserves to be the person with the most strategic vision in the Iron Triangle. He has already seen some of the future situation of this place within a few days.

Gao Jianwu nodded, which also coincided with his thoughts.Sure enough, it is good to talk to smart people, and we can talk together soon.

And it's not something he can do alone.

"Old Ding, I thought so too.

In this way, you leave a main battalion here to do this first. In name, it is to protect our rear security, but in fact, you let them find partners from the local area that can cooperate with them. We want to make this place controlled by our own people. The place.

I have already sent a telegram to the Nanyang working group, asking them to send prospecting experts to conduct prospecting here.

At the same time, I also asked them to contact the businessmen in the mining business in Nanyang as soon as possible to cooperate. In the future, it is not appropriate for us to come forward directly, but we must ensure that the mining of this copper mine is controlled and the materials are sent to the country.

Not only here, but in the future when we conquer Mandalay and other places, we will also adopt this method to actually control.

This time, we have been going south to get to the sea. The resources we have obtained will be transported back by sea as much as possible in the future.

Going by land to pass through the rear not only has serious traffic problems, but due to well-known reasons, it is also difficult for our goods to pass safely.

Judging from the current situation, we cannot change the status quo in the short term. "

Ding Wei nodded, knowing that what Gao Jianwu was talking about was indeed the current difficulties.

If it is transported by sea, although the risk is high, it is still safer than land.

Because the sea is vast, even if the little devil controls Southeast Asia, it is still impossible to have the power to block all shipping. There are hundreds of tons of copper hidden in a ship, which is not conspicuous at all, but you have to go to land for these hundreds of tons. Transportation, crossing mountains and ridges, wouldn't it take thousands of horses?
"Old Ding, raising bandits' self-respect is fine in the short term, but it won't work in the long term. If we want this place to become our long-term resource supply place, then it is most beneficial for us to try our best to turn this place into a local government controlled by independent armed forces.

I heard that many forces seeking independence have emerged here.Among them, a group of people followed Xiaotian to control many places. They are also enemies of the Allied Forces. We just took this opportunity to support some forces, confront them, and replace them.

It's just that we have some difficulties now, that is, we can't know that those people are inclined to us. If they choose the white-eyed wolf, then everything will be blind. "Gao Jianwu then expressed his concerns.

"Old Gao, what you said is indeed a big problem, but we can't solve it overnight. Maybe we can learn from some overseas Chinese that the Nanyang Working Group has contacted. Now we are blinded, and it is too early to say these things." Ding Wei thought for a while and said.

In fact, this is a big problem that will never have a definite answer.

"Okay, Lao Ding, you are right. Now our Nanyang working group has contacted many overseas Chinese here. They are all talents who can speak some local languages. When the time comes, they will join the people you left behind. Take a look together and find out the local situation first. When our Nanyang working group comrades arrive with overseas Chinese who have worked together, we will take immediate action.

Strive to complete the most basic work before the Allied forces arrive to take control of this place.

Especially with regard to weapons and ammunition, we must now secretly hide some of the seized weapons, and we must not let people like Smith know about it, or even our own people.

In addition to the limited manpower for this matter, the less people know about it, the better. This job is not easy to do, and it requires sophisticated people to do it well.I think there is no hope for Zhang Dabiao.I'm not too familiar with Xu Shida, so I can only count on you in this matter. "

Except for the commando, Gao Jianwu's direct descendants didn't bring any other ones. The Pingan cluster brought the main force of the independent regiment. Of course, these veterans have no problem in loyalty, but this army has inherited Li Yunlong's character. A little delicate private work is not their specialty.

The commando group is similar, good at fighting, but not good at fine work.

That's why Gao Jianwu found Ding Wei and asked him to do this, because Ding Wei's character and outlook on the overall situation are naturally different from Zhang Dabiao's.

 It is time to plan to build an overseas supply site. There are many restrictions that cannot be written in depth, and many analyzes have been omitted. I don’t know if it will be a small black house, trembling

  But if not, everyone feels too abrupt.

  Please believe that this book has a pattern, although it is limited to various situations, I dare not make the pattern too big
