Chapter 572 George's helplessness: once on the pirate ship, he can never get off
The navy started making trouble again.
They really disregarded the friendship between their colleagues. As soon as the Empire signed an agreement with Northern Soviet Union, they rushed over to expand the navy.
What the hell is this expansion of the navy? It's just an attempt to get back the military funds that were decided to be given to the army at the cabinet meeting not long ago.
The second plan?
Seishirō Sakatan recalled that not long ago, General Okamura Yasuji mentioned something, which was how the Imperial Army should save face if the plan to go north failed. The plan he proposed was to attack Guangxi, cut off the mountain city's connection with the outside world, and prevent the Empire from giving them more material reinforcements in future attacks on the mountain city.
"I think it's feasible. We need to take action in advance to interrupt their plan. As long as we can still gain the upper hand in the battle in the mountain city, even if his navy wants to speak, they have to consider whether the higher-ups will agree to their request."
When Sakatan Seishiro heard what Asaka said, she nodded slightly and said, "Then let's report it."
Mountain city, British Embassy.
Zhou Weiguo received a visiting card from George this morning, so at noon, he brought Xiao Ya and a few others to visit.
"You are smiling so happily, let me guess." Zhou Weiguo saw George waiting for him in the courtyard with a smile on his face, and he immediately stretched out his hand to ask after getting out of the car.
"I seem to be like this every day." George looked at him and smiled.
Zhou Weiguo shook his head; "Fake, my smiles in the past were very fake, but today's is the most sincere one. I think it must be your transfer order that has come down."
George laughed loudly twice, then reached out and patted Zhou Weiguo on the shoulder; "I can't hide anything from you. I did receive a transfer order and will be transferred to Delhi in South Asia soon to handle trade issues in South Asia and other countries."
"You've made such great contributions, but you're not even the second-in-command. Why are you so happy?" Zhou Weiguo said with a click of the tongue.
Damn it, we shouldn't have invited this bastard to celebrate.
He thought it was so easy to get the top and second in command of the South Asian Governor's Office. That required someone close to them.
"You don't know us. I'm already very happy to have such a position. As for whether I can move up in the future, well..."
Zhou Weiguo interrupted him and whispered in his ear, "Just follow me. I promise to take you to that position. Believe me, I can do it. Do you believe me?"
George took a deep breath and looked at Zhou Weiguo in front of him.
He believed that this person must have the ability to do this, but agreeing to it would also mean that he would most likely do something to betray the empire in the future.
"Are you asking me to betray you?" George looked around and asked.
Xiao Ya, who was following Zhou Weiguo, smiled calmly, "Sir George, you don't have to say it so harshly. This is not a betrayal, it's just a matter of mutual benefit. If you really want to call it a betrayal, then you are not a betrayer."
George glanced at Xiao Ya, and then looked at the other two women following Zhou Weiguo.
Women have the most vicious hearts. Xiao Ya can shut him up with just one sentence. If he lets these two speak, he will probably become a sinner of the empire today.
"Okay, then I'll wait for that day." George smiled calmly and pointed inside; "Please, let's go eat first."
Just as Xiao Ya said, if it really was betrayal, then selling the tanks and radios to Shancheng was already considered a betrayal. At that time, there was a strict order from above not to sell any weapons to Shancheng.
But I did it anyway. Now that I had done it, the weight of the word "betrayal" didn't seem so heavy anymore.
Today's lunch is very rich.
Maybe it was a special treat for Zhou Weiguo and his companions, so the food they served was fried dishes instead of the usual bread and butter.
Just when they were halfway through their meal, George's secretary came over to Xiao Ya and said a few words with his head down.
Xiao Ya nodded and said to Zhou Weiguo, "Commander Bai is going back to Changsha today. Let's go back early and set off together."
"Are you leaving?" George didn't know why he asked this question. Deep down, he hoped that these people would leave, but when he heard this, he felt somewhat reluctant.
After all, if I leave now, I might never see you again.
"The conflict between Moxico and Tokyo has ended without any benefit. They will definitely launch a new round of attacks on the mountain city. We should also go back and prepare for the revenge between Tokyo and Moxico. You eat meat and drink wine, but we are the ones who suffer."
Really? Don’t think I don’t know what Shancheng took advantage of this opportunity to get from Beisu, including several heavy weapons production lines.
This is something you could never have imagined before.
But he didn't dare to say this, he picked up the wine glass and said, "Then I wish you all a safe journey."
"Okay." Zhou Weiguo stood up and bowed. "In that case, I wish you a bright future. If you have any troubles in the future, you can arrange for someone to contact us. We will definitely remove the obstacles on your road to advancement for you."
George knew that he was tied to the pirate ship and it was impossible to get off now.
He nodded; "If that day ever comes, I will definitely come find you."
Commander Bai still serves as the commander of the Ninth War Zone. Now that matters here have been settled, he naturally has to return to the headquarters. That afternoon, the group left the mountain city and returned to Changsha.
Still apart after a long time.
The headquarters of the independent regiment is still the same as before, the only difference is that the independent regiment has added another infantry battalion, now reaching six infantry battalions, plus other auxiliary forces.
According to the regular organization, the current independent regiment has the strength of a brigade.
Also, Takeshita Shun's watch has been changed again. The same is true for the team.
It goes without saying that this group of people must have made a fortune in Northern Soviet Union. After all, Haishengwei is an ice-free port in the Far East, and Northern Soviet Union has invested a lot of manpower and financial resources there.
This time, Takeshita Shun was mainly going for the money, and the other things were just incidental.
"You must have made a lot of money." Zhou Weiguo asked while sitting on a chair and glanced at Takeshita Shun who was leaning against the door.
Takeshita Shun smiled calmly and hummed, "It's not bad."
It’s okay, but it’s too okay.
If it were in the past, knowing that I was back, Ono would probably have rushed to me the first thing and asked to join the battle.
However, it has been several hours since I went back, and there is still no sign of Ono.
Since Ono is not coming, he must have gone to other places to sell things. Since I left, the Independent Regiment has been resting. If he is not going to sell good things, he can go out in person.
Come on.
Zhou Weiguo wanted to ask, but Du Xiaoyue, who was on duty today, came up to him and said, "Captain, the headquarters wants you to go over immediately."
