Chapter 358 An accident happened in Yunnan
Qin Wei has been carrying out his own great cause of "scammering people" and is trying to continue to rise to the level of "scammering the country".
Dwight David Eisenhower, the supreme commander of the Allied Army in Europe during World War II, was cautious in dealing with people and affairs, taking the overall situation into consideration, cheerful, magnanimous, and good at coordinating relationships in all aspects. When a major general was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the European Allied Army, he had no actual experience in the battlefield. Many of the British generals under him had richer experience in battlefield command than him. For this reason, generals such as Montgomery and Bradley despised him quite despised. At the same time, he also had to deal with a British prime minister who liked to directly interfere in battlefield command. This brought him considerable difficulties. However, he properly handled the cooperative relationship with the British and successfully maintained his authority as the commander of the coalition.
From landing in North Africa to the Normandy Landing of Operation Overlord, Eisenhower reached the peak of a soldier. On the eve of the end of the European War, he was awarded the highest military rank of the United States - the five-star general, and received the honors with his mentors MacArthur and Marshall. When he returned to the United States triumphantly from the European battlefield, he was welcomed by thousands of people. When he visited the Soviet Union in August 1945, he was invited to the reviewing stand at Lenin's tomb as the first foreigner, standing with Stalin to watch the Soviet Sports Festival performance. In 1952, Eisenhower was discharged from the army and was soon elected as the president of the United States for two terms until 1961. Although he did not receive much approval rating during his ten years of office, his historical evaluation was getting higher and higher after 1980, and he was elected one of the ten greatest presidents in the United States.
But at this time Eisenhower was just a small colonel, and he was particularly promoted for the status of the leader of the observation group! Because in February of the year, he was transferred to the 15th Infantry Regiment stationed in California. At that time, he was just a lieutenant colonel!
However, due to Qin Wei's insistence, Eisenhower, who is still unknown, was brought to China in advance.
...
“I’m glad to meet everyone.”
Eisenhower never thought that he would go to China one day. Although he had been an assistant to MacArthur in the Philippines for several years, he was named by the Chinese ambassador to become the commander of the Military Observation Corps. He still felt like he was dreaming. Later he learned that the Chinese ambassador also called out major general Henry Harry Arnold, Brigadier General of the Army's newly formed Armored Brigade George Patton, senior assistant to the Army Chief of Staff Marshall, Colonel Omar Nelson Bradley and other officers. Unfortunately, President Roosevelt and the senior officials of the US military investigated the "ill-character attempts" of the Chinese and chose to shake their heads decisively. This gave him the opportunity to be promoted to colonel.
Eisenhower knew very well that as long as he performed well in China, he could at least get the rank of major general after returning. So he cherished this opportunity and never thought of showing the pride of Americans in front of the Chinese... A fifty-year-old lieutenant colonel. He got a colonel when he encountered a good opportunity. What's there to be proud of? So he was very kind and modest.
"I thought it was Chennard who came back. How did this guy do it? He is so old, he is just a colonel?"
Eisenhower doesn't understand Chinese. Although he was studying hard on the way here, he still felt as if he was listening to Feng Yuxiang's strong Shaanxi accent... But when he saw Feng Yuxiang's warm smile, he also smiled friendly.
"Brother Huanzhang, don't underestimate people." Chiang Kai-shek frowned slightly and looked at Feng Yuxiang. "This time, in addition to the members of the US military observation group, there are many other members of the US military selected by Qin Wei based on intelligence. Unfortunately, Roosevelt saw the power of the German blitzkrieg and ordered the whole United States to step up the construction of aircraft. What was the original name..."
"Arnold!" Dai Li leaned into his ear and said softly.
"Yes, Arnold! There is another Patton, either organizing the construction of planes or busy forming the Americans' own armored forces. The rest are all commanders of the troops. The Americans were reluctant to let it go. Then the Colonel Eisenhower was selected..." Chiang Kai-shek paused and said, "Don't underestimate him, think that he was not young and was promoted to colonel. Qin Weike said that the members of the observation team he designated were not allowed, but this Eisenhower must be there! This person's ability is no worse than their Chief of Staff Marshall!"
"Qin Wei is still accurate in judging people." He Yingqin couldn't help but look at Eisenhower for a few more times. Just a guy who was promoted to colonel at the age of fifty, could he be as talented as the chief of staff of the US Army? If that were the case, what would Qin Wei meant to hold people to China?
"The Chief of Staff of the United States, in terms of level, is not much worse than Brother Jingzhi." After hearing Chiang Kai-shek's words, Bai Chongxi was also curious about Eisenhower, and his eyes were full of scrutiny. Qin Wei never talked nonsense about matters, and they knew it well. Since the boy thought that Eisenhower in front of him was not worse than Marshall, then nine out of ten, Eisenhower was at least as talent as a general. Such a person was fifty years old and had not yet gotten a general? The situation in the United States seemed to be very difficult.
"So, this time I invite Colonel Eisenhower to attend our meeting and discuss how to deal with the Japanese offensive this time!" Chiang Kai-shek looked at everyone with a pretentious look, "Wen Bai, please explain to you the Japanese's arrangements first."
"yes."
Zhang Zhizhong also took a deep look at Eisenhower first, then walked to one end of the conference room, opened the curtain, revealing the map that had been hung long ago.

"You're going to get married-?"
The best candidate to coordinate the British and American armies in the future is now under the "test" of the Central Committee led by Chiang Kai-shek. After Qin Wei learned the news, he was inexplicably excited... He planned to keep Eisenhower until after the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan. As for whether the European Allies would be in trouble because they lacked such a supreme commander who was good at coordinating relations, it was not within his consideration. There were many people from Britain and the United States, and it was impossible that there was only one Eisenhower? Of course, if some people who were as capable as Eisenhower did not get this opportunity, it had nothing to do with him, Qin... Anyway, the cooperation was not going smoothly, and it would be enough to fight a few more battles to get in. If it really doesn't work, then working with the Germans for two more years can be considered to deepen the influence of World War II. So the Americans would not remember the lessons in the future, and they would always be troubled here and there...
However, Qin Wei was still excited because this was the first time he had truly felt the comfort that had changed the entire history of World War II.
He needs someone to share this excitement.
So, after finding a place where no one was around, he called Gu Changjun, but...
"Who is your marriage partner? Isn't it really my great-granddaughter?"
When Qin Wei heard the news that Gu Changjun informed him, he was not happy for his old friend at the first time, but a loss... a loss of someone stolen something he loved.
"I'm not so uninhuman to bully younger generations, not your great-grandson daughter." Gu Changjun was very lazy after speaking, and felt a little ignorant. Thinking about it, anyone is always urged to provide various information, and is forced to go to the library to constantly check various historical materials. He will also feel tired. Especially the things you find each time may be different, and even the things you found at the last moment suddenly become different at the next moment, and you have to start over again... This experience is enough to destroy the nerves of many people. Gu Changjun feels that being able to hold on until now is already the reason for his extremely tough personality.
"It's good." Qin Wei snorted: "But just because of your material, those rich families probably won't like you, right?"
"You might as well just say that I can only marry a maid like you. Isn't it too tired to turn around?" Gu Changjun was annoyed: "I'll tell you, I'm not your great-grandson-daughter. I've grown old and planned to be your grandson-daughter!"
"What?" Qin Wei screamed strangely.
"Where is anything? I've fallen in love with your granddaughter, that's all."
"Why didn't you see that you have this problem before? How old is my granddaughter? Do you actually have this kind of habit?" Qin Wei couldn't help but shout.
"Don't underestimate yourself." Gu Changjun seemed a little proud, "You Qin family has a great career, and there are inevitably some juniors who are tall... My buddy is young and rich, and he is also the chairman of a big museum. He is also a serious big shot in the cultural world, so he is naturally favored by little girls. He told you, you are about to become your sister-in-law's granddaughter. He is only twenty-one years old this year, not only beautiful but also gentle and kind... I don't thank God anymore, but thank you for leaving such a granddaughter for me."
"You...why are you about to become my sister-in-law's granddaughter? You, you are doing things randomly. Do you know? I don't agree! This generation will be messy." Qin Wei shouted.
"It's all messy. I don't have the same surname as you." Gu Changjun didn't care at all, "Just think we are the best matches of the old and the young."
"I'm worthy of your sophomore! I'm her grandfather, I don't agree with this marriage... Oh, by the way, you haven't told me what my granddaughter's name is?"
"Qin Xianglian!"
“?…”
"I'm just teasing you, I'm not a fool, how could I tell you the name of your sister-in-law now, what if you get rid of it?...You said you are the same, Eisenhower is worth calling to celebrate? If you have the ability, you can bring the United States back to thirteen states. Goodbye..."
“Hey, hey…”
He kept shouting with his cell phone for more than ten times, but no sound from Gu Changjun came from inside. Qin Wei was stunned for a while before sighing, cursing "uncle" at the cell phone, and then sorting everything out before he walked out again. Not long after he walked out, he was about to find a cup of tea himself. While savoring and carefully calculating his relationship with Gu Changjun, Zhou Tian came to him with a cold look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Qin Wei asked.
"We probably have to go back to Kunming! Something happened in Yunnan!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile phone users please go to m. Read.)
