Kulun, Northwest Frontier Defense Forces General Command.

Gao Chu and his adjutant had just returned from the outside inspection troops. Now Outer Mongolia is much colder than the mainland of the motherland.

Moreover, the wind and sand are particularly strong.

Gao Chu was wearing a big dumpling all over his body. After entering the command center where the stove was burning, it seemed like it was entering spring. It was so warm that it made people stretch comfortably.

Just took off the plush locomotive cap wrapped around his head, Gao Chu took over the hot water handed over by a left-behind adjutant.

He said with emotion: "Damn it, it's a good thing that we are all natives from Northeast China, otherwise we might have been frozen here."

"No, the weather in Outer Mongolia is really comparable to the border of Heilongjiang in Northeast China!" said the adjutant who handed the water.

While he was speaking, a communications officer hurried in with a telegram in his hand, and when he came to him, he saluted Gao Chu: "General, the commissioner sent an urgent call from Nanjing."

Gao Chu immediately put away his smile, put the teacup on the table, reached out and took the message, read it quickly, and immediately said to the adjutant and the communications officer: "You go and notify the Air Force immediately, and immediately draw 150 bf109 fighter jets to fly to Yinchuan, fill up the fuel, go south immediately and be ordered to enter the southwest."

Seeing that Gao Chu looked serious and did not dare to be negligent, the two of them quickly stood up and responded, then turned around and left.

After watching the two subordinates leave, Gao Chu picked up the water cup and murmured: It seems that the war in the south is about to get tense.

……………………

Wuhan, Chiang Kai-shek's headquarters.

"Commissioner, it's great. Zhang Xinghan has agreed to draw 150 of the most advanced BF109 German fighter jets from the northwest to enter the southwest." Zhang Zhizhong was somewhat excited to defend Chiang.

My admiration for Zhang Xinghan has also deepened.

Mr. Jiang smiled and nodded, thinking to himself, Zhang Xinghan is really unambiguous in national justice.

…………

Guangxi, Nanning, Li Zongren's official residence.

Now Li Zongren is nominally the vice chairman of the Military Commission who is fair to Chiang. But this time Zhang Xinghan established the Southwest Border Defense Force, and Chiang served as commander-in-chief.

However, he only became the deputy commander-in-chief, and in name he was still suppressed by Chiang Kai-shek.

This made him very depressed. Bai Chongxi was now left in Nanjing by Zhang Xinghan to listen to him. No one around him could solve his problems and express his depression.

So, Li Zongren is very depressed now.

However, Huang Shaohong, the three giants of the Guangxi clan, is now enlightening him.

"Duke De, don't be discouraged. In name, he, Mr. Jiang, is the commander-in-chief of the Southwest Frontier Defense Force, but are you also the deputy commander-in-chief.

And the most important thing is that on the ground in Guangxi, you have the final say."

Li Zongren said a little discouraged: "In this matter, Zhang Xinghan obviously colluded with Chiang Kai-shek and deliberately suppressed our Guangxi clan.

With Mr. Jiang's personality, he would not miss this good opportunity to penetrate Guangxi. If I was not wrong, he should have sent troops to move into Guangxi now."

Huang Shaohong was about to persuade him again, but unexpectedly, an adjutant suddenly hurried in from outside.

"Sir, a unit of the Central Army has about 10,000 people. From Shaoyang and Yongzhou, we entered Guangxi, we stationed in Xing'an and other places to ask for instructions on whether to let them enter the country." The adjutant saluted Li and Huang and reported.

Li Zongren was stunned at first. Then he slapped the table and said, "Look, what am I saying? Jiang Zhongzheng is doing everything he can. I just said he will not miss any opportunity."

Huang Shaohong patiently persuaded: "Duke De. Don't worry, Chiang Kai-shek now has only 600,000 people, and is stationed in the five southwest provinces. Moreover, I heard that Zhang Xinghan left behind all the 450,000 veterans out of the 600,000 veterans, and only gave him 150,000 veterans and 400,000 newly recruited recruits.

How many troops can he have to be stationed in Guangxi?

We are deeply rooted in Guangxi, so how could he easily occupy the nest and take over the master?

Have confidence in ourselves?

Besides, our Guangxi clan has sufficient troops to compete with the US and British attacks alone. We can use this as an excuse to refuse Chiang’s troops to continue to move south.”

However, before Huang Shaohong finished speaking, another communication soldier walked in from outside and saluted to the two: "Two commanders, Chairman Zhang called from Nanjing."

Huang Shaohong's heart skipped a beat and looked at Li Zongren, who raised his hand and asked for a telegram.

Just after taking a look, Li Zongren's face suddenly changed.

Huang Shaohong, who was standing beside him, felt nervous and asked, "Dong De, what do you say in the telegram?"

Li Zongren handed the message to Huang Shaohong and said with some disappointment: "Zhang asked us to let go of the Central Army entering Guangxi. The enemy is in the face of the great enemy, and we should focus on national and national interests. Join forces with the Central Army to fight the enemy. Humph, this is the indirect helping Chiang Kai-shek embezzle our Guangxi division territory."

Huang Shaohong looked at Zhang Xinghan's call carefully in a heavy mood, pondered for a moment, and said, "Dong De, don't be impulsive. Now Zhang Xinghan is in the world, and is at its peak, and he occupies the banner of national justice. For the sake of our plan, we can only obey the central orders.

Otherwise, we may be punished by those who are interested in having an affair with foreign enemies and betrayal of the country and nation at any time. By then, we will be completely done.

It is only necessary to strictly prevent the Central Army entering the country, and I don’t know that they dare to play any tricks at this stage.”

Li Zongren pondered for a long time, forcibly calmed down his impulsive mood, and said calmly: "It seems that this is the only way."

Huang Shaohong is right. In the current situation, Zhang Xinghan is completely based on the overall situation of national interests and national interests.

He must not ignore his orders, otherwise he may fall into a desperate situation where he will never turn over.

Sure enough, not long after that, another communication staff member took a message and said that Bai Chongxi sent an urgent call from Nanjing.

It turned out that after learning about Zhang Xinghan's latest series of deployments, Bai Chongxi was deeply afraid that Li Zongren would be impulsive and would do something that would be unfavorable to the current national unification of the external situation, so he quickly sent a telegram to persuade Li Zongren.

With Huang Shaohong and Bai Chongxi's advice, Li Zongren had to swallow his anger and agreed to the Central Army's entry into Guangxi.

Myanmar, a major northern city in Mandalay.

The division headquarters of the First American Airborne Division is now stationed here.

Lieutenant General MacArthur, the current commander of the First Airborne Division, is working with his staff to formulate a combat plan to attack China's border lines.

Today, MacArthur has changed history because of Zhang Xinghan's arrival, so under the Hu Butterfly effect, he has multiple positions.

In addition to the titles of Philippine Marshal and Commander-in-Chief of the Philippine Army, MacArthur also became a lieutenant general of the US Army four years ahead of schedule.

And in this war against China, he served as the commander of the 82nd Division of the United States' No. 1 Airborne Division.

This 82nd Division was a well-known American ace division in history, running side by side with the 101st Division.

Its predecessor was the 82nd Army Division, which was formed during World War I, which was August 25, 1917. Since the officers and soldiers of the division were all from 48 states in the United States when it was first established, it was awarded the "Great Name of the All-American Division". In the spring of 1918, the 82nd Airborne Division crossed the ocean and went on an expedition to France, participating in three major battles, giving the German army a powerful blow. After the end of World War I, the 82nd Infantry Division was converted into a reserve division.

In the original history, during World War II, the United States re-transformed it into an active division according to combat needs. For environmental considerations and combat needs,

On August 15, 1942, the US military officially renamed the 82nd Infantry Division to the 82nd Airborne Division. In 1943, the 82nd Airborne Division carried out parachutes and aircraft landing assaults on Sicily and Salerno, Italy, respectively, playing an important role in the Allied forces' smooth attack in Italy.

In 1944, the 82nd Airborne Division participated in the largest airborne operation in its lifetime and successfully defeated the German army in Normandy.

During this battle, the 82nd Airborne Division pre-selected terrain similar to the airborne area and repeatedly practiced the airborne operations, and strengthened the training effect by adding simulation training.

The 82nd Airborne Division first created a detailed model of the airborne area according to the size of the terrain and land, and then the aircraft shot it into a movie above the model, and then added a blue filter to the film. The situation where the aircraft flew over the landing site over Normandy under moonlight was truly revealed to the airborne troops.

After this training, although the 82nd Airborne Division was very dispersed after landing during combat, it could quickly assemble and launch an attack.

One of the small troops landed near the German 91st Division stationed in an ambush tactic and killed the German division commander who was returning at the meeting, causing the division to fall into chaos for a while and attracted all the German 91st Division there, thus ensuring that the landing US troops did not face a counterattack at a critical moment.

Later, the 82nd Airborne Division was incorporated into the 18th Airborne Army. In December 1944, the 82nd Airborne Division adopted a tactic of deep airborne infiltration, which caught the German army off guard and reversed the Allied forces' battle situation. After the end of World War II, the 82nd Airborne Division was designated as the combat readiness Army Division by the US military in November 1948, and its base was located in Fort Breg, North Carolina.

However, now, because history has changed, this airborne division has been formed several years in advance. Although the number is still the 82nd Airborne Division, it is basically called the first Airborne Division of the US Army.

Because it is the first airborne division-level unit in the US Army today.

MacArthur came from a military family. His father, MacArthur, was once promoted to the US Army's three-star lieutenant general. Due to his father's influence, MacArthur was very keen on his military career.

He was more keen on war. Therefore, when the US Pacific Fleet was attacked by the Chinese Air Force in the waters of Japan, he was extremely indignant and immediately applied to command the troops to participate in the battle against the Chinese team.

The land offensive plan formulated by the Supreme Command of the United States gave MacArthur a place to use it. Through his own efforts, he successfully served as the commander of the division, known as the first division in the United States, and led his troops to enter the Sino-Myanmar border and prepare to launch an attack on China.
