Chapter 23 Negotiations Broke Down
If Zheng Pingru's speech at the press conference indicates that the negotiation will be fruitless, then the fuse that led to the breakdown of the negotiations was the last arrogant and stupidity of the British. They regarded the National Liberation Army's suggestions to move the front back and establish a demilitarized zone as weak and bullied, and still stubbornly insisted on a tough stance and conditions. When this negotiation seemed to have obviously failed to achieve its goal, the delegation of the National Liberation Army angrily withdrew from the hopeless negotiations that lasted for one month after receiving instructions from the headquarters.
The rainy season in the subtropical zone is long and dull, and the endless heavy rain extinguishes the wish for peace. When the reporters watched the National People's Liberation Army delegation hold its last reception and returned with anger, they expressed regret for the breakdown of the negotiations, and expected the sound of gunfires to ring again and blood would continue to flow.
"We will come back, and we will come back with every request from the British." Zheng Pingru said to the reporters confidently: "Although this negotiation breaks down, it does not mean that the political solution to the Malayan issue may be completely cut off. I hope everyone will continue to work hard for this, and our peace-loving heart is still hot."
On the same day the negotiations were officially announced to break down, the New York Times once again revealed that the information of Han Feng, the commander of the National People's Liberation Army, caused another uproar.
Han Feng, real name Andy Lau, major general of the National Army, has dual nationality between China and the United States. He rescued female prisoners of war in North China under the pseudonym Wang Busi, and led them to fight several fierce battles with the Japanese army, winning many times. He was then hired by the Military Control Commission, and he made a series of shocking cases in Shanghai and Peking, sniping the Emperor's special envoy, killing famous traitors such as Wu Shibao, Zhang Xiaolin, Lin Tianmu, and Ji Yunqing. He killed the Long Live Club and slashed Nanyun's son. Pearl Harbor
Before the incident, he led the Anti-Japanese Anti-Traitor Group to rescue a group of Chinese and foreign scholars, including the current Chinese Ambassador Stu Leiden. Later, at the request of the Military Control Commission, he formed a ranged team and led the team to enter Myanmar to fight the Japanese army. He killed the generals and seized the flag and attacked Myitkyina. Songshan bloody war captured the enemy commander, and was awarded the Blue Sky and White Sun Medal by the State Government and promoted to major general. Due to his outstanding performance, he was called a special war expert by the military.
Under Dorothy's brilliant description, his legendary experiences not only cater to Americans who advocate personal heroism, but also portrayed Wu Ming as a freedom fighter with a strong patriotic spirit, which made the world praised him. He neither joined the Kuomintang nor was he too far away from GCD. Now he resolutely devoted himself to the great cause of the Chinese in Southeast Asia for freedom, equality and democracy. He once again attracted the attention of the world.
"It turns out that the enemy we are facing is an expert in jungle special combat field. No wonder our special operations will be more defeated and won." After receiving the news, the British commander of the British army in Malaya found out and sighed for a long time. "If we knew that he was commanding the National Liberation Army, we would lose many elite soldiers and generals less. Now we must carefully study his characteristics to avoid tragic recurrence. Moreover, the beheading and sneak attack he is best at does not seem to have been performed, so we must be vigilant about this."
In the British Parliament, MP Mike said in a solemn tone: "Perhaps we should re-look at the prospects of the Malayan War and re-evaluate the combat effectiveness of the National Liberation Army. When a group of people who sacrificed their lives for the great goals in their hearts had a famous and excellent commander, were we guessed that it was a bit too hasty and too optimistic? Should we adopt a more flexible strategy instead of a tough and stubborn position now?"
However, the hawkish British MP Dom said arrogantly: "War is a manifestation of comprehensive strength. It is far from enough to rely on an excellent commander. We did not understand it before, but now for us, we can study him in a targeted manner and formulate corresponding strategies. I am afraid that this time the National Liberation Army's deliberate exposure of his identity will not only fail to fear and waver us, but will increase our confidence in victory."
While the media and observers around the world were speculating about the real intention of the National Liberation Army's move and the real effect of the Han wind on the Malayan War, the National People's Liberation Army's local rainy season offensive suddenly began.
In subtropical areas such as Malaya, the rainy season is usually between May and October. The flight of British reconnaissance aircraft was affected by the rainy season. The National Liberation Army secretly transferred animal resources and personnel, and made careful plans and deployments, and finally prepared before the negotiations broke down.
When the British learned about Wu Ming's true identity and started to review its rationality again in military operations, the National People's Liberation Army began a large counterattack.
Cameron, Dahan Mountain and Lanzhang are three nails that lie between the central base and the East Coast base, among which Dahan Mountain is the most solid and dangerous. As long as these three nails are pulled out, the central base will start with the East Coast base. Relying on the Kelantan River, cut off a quarter of the entire Malayan Peninsula and bordering Thailand to obtain a large amount of food and supplies, and the entire strategic situation will become extremely favorable.
The British also saw this. After Liu Cheng's detachment secretly crossed the blockade line and entered the East Coast Mountains, those stationed in Cameron, Dahan Mountain and Lanzhang were replaced by British troops. In addition, the southern city of Guaralippi, between Cameron and Dahan Mountain, was stationed with the most powerful mobile force of the British army in Malaya. The Sixth Armored Brigade of the Imperial Army had more than 100 tanks and dozens of armored vehicles. Moreover, since the beginning of the war, although the Sixth Armored Brigade attacked many times, the National Liberation Army had always adopted a strategy of avoiding war against it, which gave the majority of the British army, including the Sixth Armored Brigade, an illusion that the National People's Liberation Army's anti-armor capability was limited and could not compete with it head-on.
