Chapter 1880 Retreat to advance

When the two were arguing, the knock on the door suddenly rang out.

President Chang immediately frowned and said, "Who? Didn't I say that no one should disturb me when I discuss the matter with Ambassador Jensen?"

"Principal." Dai Li's voice sounded outside the door, "It's me, there's something urgent."

"Yunnong?" President Chang said with a slight expression, "Then you just come in and talk."

At the door opened, Dai Li bowed his waist and walked in, bowed deeply to President Chang first, and nodded to Jansen, but his expression was a little cold.

It is obvious that Director Dai has been favored by Principal Chang for so many years.

Not to mention anything else, it is just that this interaction with foreign friends is very accurate.

President Chang said: "Yunnong, if you have anything to do, just say it. Ambassador Jensen is not an outsider."

"Yes." Dai Li responded to Min and said in a low voice, "Zhong Yi sent a secret telegram through Fang Jianwei."

"Oh?" President Chang asked in surprise, "Zhong Yi sent a secret telegram at this time? What was the telegram saying?"

Dai Li glanced at Jansen and said, "Zhong Yi said that he was tired of war, and now the crisis in Myanmar has basically been lifted, and the Yunnan-Burma Highway is no longer worry-free, so if you want to retire from active service, please ask the Commander-in-Chief to appoint another general to go to the Myanmar War to replace him as commander-in-chief."

"Ah?" Principal Chang was stunned when he heard this.

What is this saying? They are still discussing it, and they have not even decided how to show up with Zhong Yi, so why did Zhong Yi ask for retirement first?

Did he hear some noise?

Yes, it must be like this, he must have heard some news.

But after thinking about it carefully, Principal Chang's face immediately collapsed.

Niang Xipi, Zhong Yi is taking retreat as an advance. It is fake to retire. It is true that he doesn’t want to move or go to Africa!

The face of the US Ambassador to China, Jansen, suddenly collapsed because he also figured out the joints. This guy Zhong Yi is really hard to deal with!

...

Mandalay, Myanmar.

"Oh Tfak?" Stilwell stared at Zhong Yi in surprise and said in disbelief, "Zhong, what did you say?"

"General Stilwell, don't be so tight." Zhong Yi smiled slightly and said, "I don't want to hide it from you. Actually, I have never liked to be a soldier, and I don't like fighting even more."

"In the past, I was forced to go to military academy by my family."

"The things that happened later were forced by the general situation, so I couldn't choose it myself."

"But fortunately, the situation in Myanmar has stabilized now, and the Japanese army is no longer able to launch an offensive on the Southeast Asian battlefield, and can only choose to defend passively."

"So, no matter who is replaced by this commander-in-chief, it will be fine."

"To put it bluntly, it's okay to send a pig to be the commander-in-chief."

"Because with Brother Shouqing and these staff members of the Chief Office, and General Stilwell, you are here, there is no problem with the Myanmar War Zone."

"As for me, since I left my hometown ten years ago, I have never been with my parents, wife and children well. Now I should take some time to accompany them."

"Zhong, you are threatening." Stilwell said furiously, "I know you don't really like being a soldier, or you don't really like fighting, and you won't be stupid enough to choose to retire and accompany your family at this time. You are using this as a condition to threaten the Allied Command. Am I right?"

"Haught?" Zhong Yi said, "General Stilwell, you are right, I am just threatening."

After a pause, Zhong Yi said again: "But you know, it was not me who first issued the threat, but your US government, which was the precedent set by the US government."

"We have an old saying in China."

"If you are doing the first day of the junior high school, don't blame others for doing the fifteenth day of the year!"

"It is your US government that first threatened us with experts and engineers who aided Myanmar."

"So, now, don't blame me for threatening the US government with retirement."

"Farke!" Stilwell said angrily, "Zhong, I admit that you are indeed a military genius. Your attainment in military command is indeed unmatched, but I hope you can figure it out."

"This world is round, and no matter who is missing, the sun will rise as usual."

"If you think that if the Myanmar War Zone is missing you, you will be paralyzed, then you are wrong."

"I will call the Allied Command and agree to your request to remove your commander! And I promise that a new commander will come soon."

"Is that true?" Zhong Yi said sneered, "please."

Stilwell left angrily, the old man was so angry.

Old Man Stilwell is a rare American soldier with a little conscience.

...

News from Chongqing and Myanmar was soon delivered to Washington.

After reading the telegram, not only Marshall, but also Roosevelt was stunned.

"Oh Tfak?" Marshall exclaimed, "I actually threatened to retire? What is this?"

Secretary of State Hull said with a dark face: "A mere Chinese dares to threaten the US government? Then we might as well agree to his request. As far as I know, Chang Kaishen has long thought about taking this position in his pocket. I believe he will send another capable general to Myanmar to replace Zhong Yi."

"Chang Kaishen?" Marshall's face suddenly collapsed.

Roosevelt also waved his hand and said, "No, this result is not what we want."

"Why?" Hull said in confusion, "Is it impossible for the Myanmar War Zone to leave Zhong Yi?"

Marshall said: "Hull, for now, it's really impossible to leave Zhong Yi after the Myanmar War Zone."

"Don't look at the situation in Myanmar now, the Chinese expeditionary force has also entered a full-scale counterattack, while the Japanese Myanmar condemnation army is only concerned about building defense chains on the Siam-Myanmar border."

"But there are prerequisites, and this prerequisite is that Zhong Yi is there."

"Once Zhong Yi is no longer the commander of the Myanmar war zone, the situation in Myanmar will immediately take a sharp turn for the worse."

"First of all, the acting commanders-in-chief of the Chinese Expeditionary Force and dozens of division commanders will obey the orders of the new commander?"

"Can the new commander be Okamura Yanji's opponent?"

"Replacing generals at the last stage is a taboo, and replacing generals like Zhong Yi is even more of a taboo."

"I can tell you responsibly that once Zhong Yi leaves office, the situation in Myanmar will soon reverse, and Okamura Yanji will soon lead the Myanmar to send a condemnation army to attack Myanmar again."

Hur said: "But isn't this exactly what we want? Take the opportunity to weaken Myanmar's strength."

"No, no, of course this is not the result we want." Roosevelt said, "We want to weaken Myanmar, but we never thought of putting Myanmar in a desperate situation!"

"And, our original intention was to transfer Zhong Yi to Africa."

"This is completely contrary to our original intention."
