Chapter 860 I hope they won’t regret it later
In the mountain city, after a light rain, Asaka Hiderei rose, looked out at the misty sky, and smiled at her secretary. "I finally understand why the High Command chose this place as the secondary capital. Once it rains, the fog acts as a natural shield, making it impossible for Japanese bombers to find their targets. This also gives the people of the mountain city a rare opportunity to resupply and relax."
"Madam is right. Ever since the Japanese army began bombing the mountain city, the occasional fog has indeed given everyone some time to prepare supplies."
Chao Xiang Xiuling smiled and said nothing, but turned and went to where Fatty Kong's office was.
Because just now, she saw Fatty Kong's car parked in the yard.
Fatty Kong, dressed in a black suit, was stunned when he entered the room. He wanted to get angry, but when he saw that it was Chao Xiang Xiuling sitting there, he smiled; "The girl is waiting for me here specially."
"I guess so." Asaka Hiderei put down her teacup and asked, "What was the main purpose of today's meeting at the headquarters?"
Hey……
Fatty Kong handed the briefcase to his secretary, then sat down at his seat and looked at the ceiling helplessly. "It seems like Watsontown is playing a trick on us. The promised supplies haven't arrived yet."
"This is intended to give the Japanese army an opportunity." Chaoxiang Xiuling snorted slightly and said, "What does the headquarters mean?"
"The news from the Second Department states that the Japanese army is likely to resume its offensive in Southeast Asia. The High Command has stated that we must secure this batch of supplies before the Japanese army launches their offensive."
"Then I'll go after him?" Asaka Hiderei asked tentatively.
Fatty Kong thought for a moment and shook his head. "Don't worry, let's wait a little longer. They might be eager for us to come find them, and then they'll find some excuse to ask Nanny Wang to reduce the supplies or something. We shouldn't fall for that."
Chaoxiang Xiuling also thought it made sense. "That's fine. If you need anything, just call me."
Watsonton's special embassy in the mountain city is still where it once was.
Familiar room, familiar layout, but the feeling here makes Robert feel a little deserted. In the past, the people at the foot of the mountain would often come up to this place to deliver some vegetables or something, but now, it has been a while since he came back, and none of these simple people at the foot of the mountain have come up anymore.
"Some mistakes, once made, will vanish into thin air if corrected. However, some mistakes, once made, will leave a negative impact on others even if you try to correct them. What our empire has done is precisely the latter."
Ruth nodded and looked toward the nearby woods. "Compared to this, I'm more worried about the Empire's slow progress in providing them with supplies. I'm afraid something might happen in the future."
"I've already reported this issue, but there's been no response from higher-ups. I guess they're planning to give the Japanese enough time to attack the mountain city. However, doing so is a bit stingy. If the situation changes, the mountain city..."
Given their current ruthless nature and willingness to grab any bargain they can get, they might ask for more supplies next time.
These supplies were indeed a lot in quantity, but from the perspective of the empire's overall reserves, they were really nothing. He could no longer tell whether he was stupid or what was going on by delaying the supply of supplies in exchange for time to disgust the mountain city.
I just hope that when the situation changes, the top leaders of the empire won't be nervous or regretful.
Ha ha……
Hengyang Independent Brigade Command.
Zhou Weiguo, who had just returned from inspecting the troops, threw his helmet on the table.
Minamizō Akiko handed the teacup to Zhou Weiguo, and then handed him a towel.
While Zhou Weiguo was washing his face to relieve his fatigue, Nan Zao Mingzi said, "Watsontown didn't send us supplies in time."
"Fourth Brother said that their reserves in Hawaii and in non-property areas are more than enough to replenish all the supplies in the agreement. They're dragging their feet, so I'm afraid they're up to something." Minamizō Akiko opened a can and handed it to Zhou Weiguo. "Do you want us to move around a bit?"
After taking a bite of the canned food, Zhou Weiguo turned his head and looked at Takeshita Jun who was sitting next to him. "Do you think we need to intervene in this matter?"
Takeshita Shun, who was sitting with his legs crossed and talking to Fang Shengli, looked at Zhou Weiguo and said, "How are you going to intervene? You can't just start a fight with the Japanese army again."
According to Commander Bai, the Independent Brigade would likely be deployed to Guangxi, serving as part of the force that would be deployed abroad to block the Japanese advance northwards and threaten the southwest. Several regiments within the Independent Brigade were currently training, with some even training in the mountains and forests behind the front lines, in preparation for this.
The predecessor of the independent brigade was originally an independent battalion of the 58th Division. It was armed almost at the junction of hills and plains, and most of its subsequent combat directions were in the plains.
Even though they went to Guangxi for a while, the fighting time was not long, and a cruel fact was exposed at that time: the troops could not keep up with the physical strength.
If we fight the Japanese army now, when the Japanese army sweeps towards Southeast Asia, the mountain city will inevitably dispatch heavy troops to rush there quickly. If the independent brigade headquarters is prepared in advance, it will be in a mess.
Sano Tadayoshi, who was sitting on the doorstep smoking, turned his head to look inside and smiled. "I think we don't have to do anything now. Someone will take care of these things for us."
"Are there any kind-hearted people in this world?" Shen Xin, who was sitting next to Wang Yun and proofreading an article, turned around and asked.
Takeshita Shun smiled and said, "Of course there are no kind-hearted people, but there are definitely those with vested interests."
Zhou Weiguo finished the can in a few mouthfuls and pointed at Takeshita Shun, saying with a smile, "I agree with that."
"I think Berlin will be happy to handle this matter for us."
"The more I listen, the more confused I get." Although Wang Yun is a war correspondent, she usually lives in the brigade headquarters. In addition, she is here on weekdays and is familiar with the people here, so she sometimes participates, but only asks questions and does not offer opinions, and she will not write these things down.
Zhou Weiguo glanced at Wang Yun, whose hair was draped over his waist, and then threw the can in his hand into an ammunition box next to him. This was Ono's intention. He wanted to recycle these iron boxes, cut them into irregular pieces, and distribute them as military supplies to several troops.
This kind of thing is usually stuffed into a bomb to increase the power of the explosion. The person who proposed this method was naturally Zhou Weiguo.
"What does this have to do with Berlin?" Wang Yun searched among the crowd for someone who could answer his question. Finally, he landed on Zhou Weiguo. "General, what on earth is going on here?"
