Chapter 2953 Burma Raiders
The Battle of Malan and its significance, and even the significance of the Chinese Expeditionary Force sending troops to the Indochina Peninsula, have been questioned by many people because China actually no longer needs the support of the United States (the United States can no longer give China support).This kind of doubt began to flood from the start of the fighting in the three northeastern provinces, and reached its peak when the war in the three northeastern provinces fell into a stalemate.In the past, when he was still in the field, He Yingqin was the loudest voice among the crowd who made such voices, but now, because of the change of status, he seems to be more confident in questioning.

It cannot be said that He Yingqin is short-sighted. After all, the importance of the Strait of Malacca at this time, because there is no energy crisis, and the strategic value of oil has not yet been recognized by most people in the country, so they naturally do not understand the oil-producing regions of the Middle East. Its significance to the world energy pattern, let alone the role of the Strait of Malacca in it.The blind spots in their understanding made them criticize the Xuebing Army and even the later coalition government's Southeast Asian policy. As far as He Yingqin was concerned, it was to him that he could obtain such knowledge from Ouyang Yun, Song Ziwen and others at the shortest distance. It's an opportunity for literacy.

In fact, in terms of grand strategic vision, He Yingqin is not bad. Therefore, after listening to Song Ziwen's ostentatious explanation and realizing that the Battle of Malan must be fought and Singapore must be won, he changed his mind and said: "If this is the case, then It seems that we still have to send more troops to the Malay Peninsula. How about sending troops from Sumatra to the past? Or let them advance directly to the east to share the pressure for the expeditionary First Army?"

The coalition government's military layout in Southeast Asia and the Middle East is nominally an expeditionary force in the form of a large military region. Below it, it is divided into three expeditionary armies and a garrison command.And because the Raiders against the Japanese mainland have drawn a considerable amount of marines from the Karachi garrison, and Chu Tiange's Middle East Expeditionary Force has actually existed in name only, so the current expeditionary force is far behind in terms of strength. At its peak.

Ouyang Yun's purpose for holding this meeting was not to discuss whether to send more troops to the Malay Peninsula, but to give an explanation to the former Northeast Army who had stayed on the China-Myanmar border.Representatives of the Independent Autonomous Government of Myanmar come to the Supreme Command for help almost every day. According to the first-hand information sent back by Gu Lianyun, the Independent Autonomous Government of Myanmar seems to be unable to hold on.I don’t want to watch the British settle down in Myanmar, but there are indeed no troops to send in the country. It is imminent for the former Northeast Army left behind on the China-Myanmar border to dispatch to stabilize the war in Myanmar.The representatives sent by Zhang Xueliang have already contacted his old subordinates, and those of his old subordinates who stayed in Myanmar really did not make any excessive demands, only asking for a title, hoping that their descendants can obtain Chinese identity.

Because the former soldiers of the Northeast Army who stayed in Myanmar were generally older, a considerable number of them have already settled down in Myanmar.For these veterans, they did not expect to return to the motherland one day, but now they have such an opportunity, even if they dare not expect that they can go back to China, they still hope that their children can obtain Chinese citizenship. identity of.Of course, their request is not too much, but because China and Myanmar are hard-core allies, it is a bit troublesome to go through the formalities under the framework of the United Nations.For the same reason, if Ouyang Yun wanted to achieve their wish, he had to form a document within the coalition government, and the top leaders of many departments had to sign the document.

Ouyang Yun had already made up his mind about the battle of Malan, but the conditions were not yet mature, and he didn't want to disclose some things yet.He coughed twice, changed the subject directly, and said, "Is there any need to increase troops? I think we should pay close attention to the opinions of the boss and Commander Sun. Alright, let's discuss the situation in Myanmar next. Hu Caitian of the Independent Self-Government of Myanmar When it comes to our troubles, the situation in Myanmar is indeed worrying, we have to come up with a feasible plan as soon as possible, and we must not sit back and watch the British regain control of Myanmar!"

He Yingqin was very dissatisfied that the hot topic was suddenly diverted.But from time to time, he was very good at watching the situation, and he didn't plan to make a fuss immediately.Looking around, he found that other people seemed to have no objection. He sat down sullenly, looked at Ouyang Yun, and felt that the other party had something to hide from him.

Ouyang Yun didn't pay attention to his gaze, but instructed Deng Xihou to make the latter public the plan they had discussed to recruit the former Northeast Army troops from Burma to fight against the British army.

Part of the former Northeast Army stayed behind in Burma. Most of you here know about it, but people with different views have different views on this matter.There are those who sympathize with what they suffer and think that they can be reused.Others, who are more extreme, think that these people are a disgrace to the Chinese soldiers. They stay in Myanmar because they are greedy for life and afraid of death.

Due to some historical reasons, Ouyang Yun couldn't say that letting these former soldiers of the Northeast Army stay in Myanmar was his trick to Zhang Xueliang, but he had already prepared a speech on how to persuade the opponents.

"Everyone be quiet, this plan was formulated after a long time of discussions with Boss Deng. The reason for recruiting them, as Boss Deng said just now, is because of the lack of domestic troops, and the Supreme Command has no ability to recruit them from other places. Local troops are recruited into Myanmar. As for some people questioning whether they can still maintain their loyalty to the country, I don’t think it is worth doubting, or it is not worth doubting. For national security considerations, we certainly cannot let the British, which is deeply hostile to our country, To control Burma, intervention is necessary. However, because the British only control southwestern Burma, we still have space and time to organize defenses. This is one of the reasons why we decided to mobilize the former Northeast Army troops in Burma first. They If they can win, everyone will be happy. Even if they can't win, at least they will buy us time. So I think it is unnecessary to talk about whether they still maintain their loyalty to the country. We can let time and facts tell... "

After Ouyang Yun said these words, many people who knew him knew that the matter was settled, and they immediately lost interest in continuing the discussion.As for those who didn't know him or the current situation of the Supreme Command's power distribution, because the vast majority of people took a tacit attitude on this matter, and Chen Cheng learned from the past, they immediately lost their mind to question it.

The recruiting of the former Northeast Army troops stationed in Burma and letting them take charge of fighting against the British invaders in Burma has come to an end. When Ouyang Yun and others began to sign the official document, the Malan Battlefield sent back the latest battle report. Immediately, Everyone's attention was drawn to the Battle of Malan again.
