Section 916 Concealing Washington
General MacArthur was also very troubled. When he heard that his soldiers were rebelling, General MacArthur wanted to shoot all these people. When he was in Southeast Asia, due to the successive defeats, his soldiers could be said to be very impetuous. Although there was no rebellion, many soldiers were unwilling to go to the battlefield. Now this situation has happened again. General MacArthur is not a superstitious person, but after such situations occur one after another, General MacArthur began to doubt himself. He thought he was not suitable to lead troops, and it should be said that he was not suitable to fight against the Chinese. Every time he fought against the Chinese, there were always problems of this kind, which made him feel that he was very failed. When he fought against the Japanese devils, he also achieved a series of victories. Why couldn’t he win with the Chinese?
Whenever the night is late, General MacArthur wants to ask himself, what's going on? Are these Chinese people born to defeat themselves? But they are Westerners, and the ideas of Easterners should not invade themselves, but everything in front of them makes the general feel pain. It's already late at night, but the general has no intention of sleeping. The report during the day is still thrown on the head of his bed. More than 400 soldiers refused to go to the front line and asked the military police to arrest them. These people just sat quietly on the playground. They refused to perform any tasks assigned to them by the officers. Even if they were to shoot them, they were waiting there. These damn guys.
When he received this report, General MacArthur really wanted to let the gendarmerie kill people, but after calming down, he just let the gendarmerie detain them. If it was really a killing person, it would be hundreds of lives. Not to mention that President Roosevelt could not save himself, even those gendarmerie would not execute orders. These people were their own comrades-in-arms. They were not enemies of hostile countries. So if you want to raise a gun to them, it would take a lot of courage. These gendarmeries were not killing machines. The education received by the United States was completely different from that of the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union could order the killing of its own soldiers. The American generals could not pass this level, including General McCas himself, so they could only lock them up first and find a way to deal with them later!
This matter has not been reported to Washington. General MacArthur felt that he was capable of dealing with it. He didn't know how he got through this night. Anyway, he was woken up by his adjutant at around four o'clock in the morning. It turned out that something bigger happened today. About 600 soldiers ran to the playground again. Don't see those people being arrested. They also want to follow those people, so they sat on the playground, hoping that the military police could lock them up and set up a temporary prison on the front line, mainly detaining those who disobedient people, but at most more than 300 people could be detained. When those people were locked in yesterday, it was already overloaded. Today's campus was really not in, and they took the initiative to go to the prison. What's the matter?
If the criminals voluntarily surrender, whether in the government or the army, they will probably feel happy and praise this person. They used to be sentenced to five years, but now they can finish the matter in three years. After all, this is for others to show you. In turn, you will be treated preferentially and other prisoners will also come. But is this the same as that? What crimes have you committed? No crime is committed, and you ask the military police to arrest you. The reason is even more ridiculous, that is, you don’t want to go to the front line to serve the country. If you arrest you again, you may be 6,000 people here tomorrow morning. There are too many people who don’t want to go to the battlefield. These people have no honor as soldiers, and they always think about saving their lives.
The number of people on the playground is still increasing. Although some military police are already on guard, some military police stand by and don’t move. What are these people thinking? General MacArthur is very clear. Perhaps these military police also want to take off their military uniforms, throw away the white hat on their heads, and sit with these people directly. The war-weariness is really too serious. These people want to go back to China now, but is it really that easy to return to China? You are now classified as deserters, and the number is increasing. General MacArthur dares not send you back. If you send them back, I don’t know how many people will appear here? Maybe hundreds of thousands of people want to go back to China, even if they are charged with a deserter, it is still hesitant.
"Hmph, these bastards actually play with me. If this is the case, I will give me orders, including those hundreds of people yesterday, all of them will treat me as deserters. But now it is a war period, and it is impossible to send them back to China. We don't have so many transportation equipment, so now the front line temporarily requisitions them and let them all go around to be scouts. If the scouts buy them, let them be transporters. The work done by the people of South America was for me to do, but they could not be allowed to rest. In addition, when they were working, they could allow the officers and soldiers of each battalion to go over and take a look and let all the soldiers know that even if you want to be deserters, it would have to pay a price. Their supply standards every day are the same as those below, and they cannot exceed the amount." General MacArthur said with a sneer.
He also has his own set of things to deal with these guys. He is very clear about the patience of these American soldiers. They are all young masters at home and cannot endure hardships. If they are sent to do some heavy work, these guys will surrender in less than two days, just like at this time. If they are asked to be transport soldiers, don't think you can drive around in a car, because there are not so many roads in South America. In addition, due to the transportation conditions of the United States, most of them use some cattle and horse carriages, and some are even rickshaws. Then it is time for you to work hard. It depends on how long you can hold on. If you can't hold on, you will be criticized as a deserter and you will have to return to the combat troops to act as a suicide squad.
