Chapter 2173 These places cannot be used, there is oil
Ness nodded.
He naturally understands this truth.
The Fog City once invited two forces to enter South Asia. One was Mountain City and the other was Baicheng.
Yamashiro resisted the Japanese army sincerely, but later, Wudu did things that were unfriendly to Yamashiro one after another, causing Yamashiro to counterattack.
Then, Baicheng came uninvited, and the number of troops increased each time. In the end, even with Fog City still there, they could not control it, so they could only give them the five southwest states.
Everyone thought that Shancheng gave it to them. In fact, Shancheng told Wudu about this.
They said that the military line was stretched too long and was not conducive to the mobilization of troops. Moreover, they also mentioned that this suggestion was made by Stilwell. They only conveyed the original words, but also expressed that the domestic situation in Shancheng was unstable, and it was really
Unable to mobilize troops.
At that time, everyone was already making their own calculations.
At that time, the foggy city was controlled by Xiao Fuzi, and the sea route was controlled by the Japanese army. With no choice, they had no choice but to let Roosevelt and others come in. As a result, once they came in, they never left.
"I understand, but the problem is, we don't have to be afraid of them coming in." Ness said with a chuckle.
Don't be afraid, why.
General Zhang didn't understand.
Ness chuckled; "My Lord General, don't we plan to take them under our command?"
Since they are going to be under his command and become the front line of the resistance against the Fog City in the future, what difference does it make if they come in or not? What if Carl County is given over to them for garrison?
From now on, they will listen to Shancheng, not Wudu.
As for the Roosevelt Empire, it is even more impossible. They will not be able to protect themselves by then, so why worry about them?
It can be said that the 70,000 to 80,000 people here have been abandoned by the Roosevelt Empire.
The reason why they haven't made a clear statement yet is because they now think they can still control the situation.
When the situation becomes out of control, this group of people will be the first to be abandoned.
Hahaha……
General Zhang smiled and nodded: "You are right, they will be ours from now on. In this case, we have nothing to worry about."
All of Carr County was garrisoned by Roosevelt's troops.
It was already dusk when Zhou Weiguo received the news. When he heard the news, he went to the headquarters without even having time to eat.
"Chief Xue, is this true? Do you really want to give them all of Carl County?"
Commander Xue didn't understand. Zhou Weiguo was not a reluctant person. Since he could come to him at night, there must be some reason.
He hummed; "The Sherman tank production line and technology were transferred to us over there. You know, we are weak in this aspect, so Shancheng has agreed to let them come over. As for what place to give to them, we still have to give it to them."
In discussions, there is no conclusion yet."
"It cannot be given. If we really want to give it, we can only give it to the three counties in the southern part of Carl County. The rest of the country, even the desert, cannot be given."
Chief of Staff Wu and Chief Bai were also there, and both looked curiously at Zhou Weiguo in front of them.
Chief Bai even hummed and said, "You don't seem to be a stingy person. Why are you so picky this time?"
The three counties only allowed them to station three of them first. The 70,000 to 80,000 people plus the air force were a bit small.
How should I put it? Zhou Weiguo wanted to give some other reasons, but he estimated that this would not be convincing. After all, it would take a big bomb to make them stop.
"Because, these three counties are all filled with oil." Zhou Weiguo's words made Chief Wu's teacup drop to the ground in fright.
Oil, what did he hear? Shancheng has been looking for oil for so many years, because without oil, tanks, combat vehicles, and the air force cannot take off.
Nowadays, Shancheng mainly relies on aid and purchase of these machines, but they are not available in our own country.
"You...what did you say?" Commander Bai also frightened Zhou Weiguo's words.
Oil, there is actually oil under the land of the three counties. This...did he hear it wrong?
Zhou Weiguo nodded and said, "It's true, there is oil there. If you don't believe it, you can ask the exploration team to come over. However, you must not let outsiders know, especially the foggy city."
This is a good thing, especially in this era, with the use of tanks, combat vehicles, aircraft, artillery and ships. Oil has become an indispensable scene.
Why did Baicheng in later generations have to attack this place again and again? Isn't it just for the oil down here? Of course, the real oil is not here, but this place is enough to make people salivate.
There is oil in mountain cities, but it is mainly in the northeast. The Japanese army cannot find it because the oil is hidden deep.
"I'm afraid I have to go back and deploy this matter immediately, otherwise the foreign affairs department is likely to give them a reply."
No matter where Zhou Weiguo got the news, this matter should be taken seriously, because it is definitely good news for Shancheng.
"I will immediately send a secret message to Shancheng and ask them to negotiate with them temporarily. We will give them a place to station, but the specific location needs to be negotiated."
After Chief Bai finished speaking, he looked at Liu Yuan beside him: "Tell the airport to prepare, I want to leave immediately."
Now?
Liu Yuan looked at the sky. It was getting dark. Would it be too late to set off now?
"This is still an area under our control. The Japanese army can't get through. Don't worry. We will fly to Lanzhou first, then transfer to Xi'an and go to the mountain city. We cannot delay this matter for a moment."
Liu Yuan also knew that he couldn't delay, but he really didn't understand how his brother knew that there was oil in it.
"Weiguo, how do you know there is oil in this?"
This question made Zhou Weiguo want to beat him up. Neither Chief Bai nor Chief Xue asked this question. Why are you asking this question? But he also knew that his elder brother asked this for his own good.
After all, the exploration team is here. If oil is not found here, there will be trouble next.
"Brother, they have discovered oil in other places in West Asia, but not in these places. Don't you think this is abnormal?"
Abnormal?
Liu Yuan lowered his head and fell into deep thought. He didn't understand what was abnormal here.
Chief Bai chuckled beside him, "It's indeed abnormal, and I think there are probably only two reasons for this."
"Sir, that's what you mean." Liu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. Since Chief Bai said this, he didn't have anything to worry about. After all, if this matter is not handled well, it will have a great impact on his brother.
