Eventually, Roosevelt sent a telegram to Chiang Kai-shek, asking him to send troops in the direction of Burma at the right time, in response to the Indian campaign.
Although Roosevelt's telegram was very tactful, it still made Chiang Kai-shek furious, and in Chiang Kai-shek's view, it was simply an insult to him Less than a month after the Cairo Conference, Churchill went back on his word, not only did not send additional naval and air forces to the Bay of Bengal, but also transferred the only cruiser to North Africa, throwing the promise to Chiang Kai-shek into the sewers.
Chiang Kai-shek summoned Huang Huasheng to his study, threw Roosevelt's telegram on the table, and said: "The British are untrustworthy and unjust, and I have no obligation to send troops. ” Huang Huasheng wrote down the telegram dictated by Chiang Kai-shek and turned around and was about to leave, when Chiang Kai-shek suddenly said again: "Wait a minute, you can reveal the meaning of the Americans to the troops below and see how they react." ” The news that the Americans wanted the expeditionary force to make the British angry quickly spread among the senior and senior officers of the expeditionary force, and the allies, who had been mixed like fish in water in Kunming, suddenly found that the enthusiastic Chinese had something more in their eyes when looking at them.
Wei Lihuang, who didn't know much about the old man's charter, looked at this topic very cautiously, and did not interfere too much with the discussions of the subordinate army commanders and division commanders.
Unlike these enthusiastic people, Song Yuhang doesn't care about this most discussed topic at all, in Song Yuhang's view, he is a soldier, and the first duty of a soldier is "obedience" Hearing the rumors, Cui Zhijun rushed back from the army, and as soon as he saw Song Yuhang open his mouth, he asked if there was any inside information, Song Yuhang frowned, and pouted: "If the chairman of the committee doesn't let him go, who dares to move a soldier and a clan, if the chairman wants to fight, who dares to take a step back."
Cui Zhijun immediately understood what Song Yuhang meant. glared at Song Yuhang and said, "Next time I have something to say."
Song Yuhang stood in front of the map, he believed that Chiang Kai-shek would not fail to understand the truth of the cold lips and teeth, and allowing the Japanese army to attack India would be tantamount to destroying one's neighbor, but there was a danger of burning himself if he came to his aid.
One of the real reasons why Chiang Kai-shek did not want to send troops was that he was afraid that he would not be able to defeat the Japanese, and he would run out of old capital.
Instead, the Japanese took advantage of it.
The second is that I can't swallow the bad breath of Cairo.
Historically, when the Chinese troops in India counterattacked Burma, there were as many as 2 armies and 6 integrated divisions.
It was the middle of August 1943.
The Chinese army stationed in India only has Sun Liren's new 38th Division and Liao Yaoxiang's new 22nd Division.
Deputy Commander Zheng Dongguo is covered in iron and can hit a few nails Moreover, Song Yuhang heard that Zheng Dongguo basically did not interfere in military affairs in India.
Sitting on the ground is the deputy commander of the emperor's land.
At present, the international war situation can be described as confusing and very strange.
The Germans were accumulating forces on the Eastern Front and in North Africa, and it seemed that there would be major military operations.
The Japanese army amassed heavy forces in Burma after sweeping through Southeast Asia.
The front is directed at India.
The Chinese Expeditionary Force is also good for itself.
For the British.
As long as you know how to do it militarily, it is not difficult for people to see it.
It is not good to send troops to Burma at this time.
But it was imperative to send troops.
The various units of the expeditionary force in the Kunming assembly area are still in the process of changing their clothes.
U.S. allies have pledged only 40 percent of their weapons and supplies.
The materials needed on weekdays are only transported by air.
Hundreds of thousands of troops fighting for logistical supplies could not be such a child's play Moreover, this time, the Japanese army had already planned and was bound to win.
Its logistical supply is more abundant and secure than it has historically been.
Moreover, the 200,000 horses of the expeditionary force are definitely at a disadvantage in terms of numbers.
In the evening, a major general surnamed Cheng from the Expeditionary Force Headquarters came to the garrison headquarters, and Commander-in-Chief Wei Lihuang held a banquet to entertain the commanders of various armies and divisions.
Just after Song Yuhang's car set off.
A few stalls selling fruit at the entrance of the garrison headquarters quietly disappeared According to Song Yuhang's original intention, eat some porridge cooked by Shen Jieyi, accompanied by Su Na's light and delicious side dishes, and enjoy the beautiful and delicious food of the two beauties, why do you want to entertain those guys who are lukewarm to themselves However, Wei Lihuang had to go to invite guests, because they had already explained that they were banqueting the commanders and division commanders under the expeditionary force, and although Song Yuhang's First Mechanized Army was under the direct control of the Military Commission, it was still nominally assigned to the expeditionary force.
Located in the south of Kunming, Wenxing House is a traditional old-fashioned restaurant that specializes in Yunnan and Cantonese cuisine.
Because the master chef in charge of the old generation served "Lafayette" in the palace dining room and passed down several famous dishes of the palace, Wenxinglou became famous.
Wenxinglou is only one street away from the military police garrison brigade, and the Japanese army has concentrated all its forces on the Indian side, in order to reduce the irritation on the Chongqing side, and at the same time, the US 14th Air Force has become stronger and stronger in the defense of Kunming and its surroundings, and the Japanese fighters have not harassed Kunming for nearly two months.
After getting out of the car, Song Yuhang glanced at the very lively street market, and a feeling of false deformed prosperity arose.
Except for those fashionable young people in suits, leather shoes, oily heads, and pink faces, carrying female companions in cheongsams.
Most of the people on the streets were soldiers, groups of soldiers or groups of officers.
At most, there are civilians in shabby clothes and vegetables, most of whom choose a clean place on the side of the street, put out the things they want to sell, and do not shout, just silently squat aside and wait for someone to ask for a price.
"The people's livelihood is difficult" Song Yuhang sighed helplessly, and then walked into Wenxing Tower.
Song Yuhang just stepped in, and Mei Wanru, the big shopkeeper of Wenxing Building, hurriedly shook the champa in her hand and greeted her with a smile on her face and said: "Oh, Commander Song, you are a great nobleman, what kind of wind is blowing you here today" Mei Wanru took a mouthful of Gaba's fluent and crisp Beijing flavor so that all the guests who ate in the lobby diverted their attention, and even a few private rooms on the second floor opened the door and looked out, women are often like this, some women are disgusting, but some women are pleasing to the eye.
Obviously, Mei Wanru belongs to the latter in the past thirty places Song Yuhang just wanted to open his mouth to ask Commander-in-Chief Wei, but Mei Wanru suddenly pretended to be surprised, and then laughed at herself: "Look at my memory, Commander-in-Chief Wei is waiting for you in Wenxing Pavilion in the back building, where I will lead the way."
"Hu Mao, go and greet these military masters, be careful about your land," Mei Wanru greeted her subordinates and arranged for Song Yuhang's driver and the guards outside.
At this time, several guests who were eating in the hall raised their heads slightly at Song Yuhang's back, and then began to eat again.

Walk through the door and around the scenic wall.
Song Yuhang found that the entire backyard was almost three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, which could be described as heavily guarded, and the six personal guards who followed stopped at the corner of the second floor, and a lieutenant who was also waiting for the commander on the side sighed and said: "Look at the head of the family, in the end, it is the first army, and even the guards are six."
When leading Song Yuhang to the third floor, Mei Wanru turned around and wanted to talk to Song Yuhang about a few words.
After all, Song Yuhang, the garrison commander, is a first-class earth head snake in Kunming, and it is also to facilitate future affairs, after all, she has never seen a cat that does not eat fish Mei Wanru was about to speak, but Song Yuhang suddenly smiled and said: "Shopkeeper Mei, when I was about to go out, the two ladies had explanations, and I couldn't talk to you more than three sentences, now you have already said two sentences, and the rest of the sentence will be said when I leave."
Regarding Song Yuhang's rejection thousands of miles away, Mei Wanru just smiled and responded: "If you don't get married, you can't be called Mrs. yet."
Commander Song is so young and handsome, and he is a pillar of the country and the nation, an ordinary woman.
As long as I can get close to you, I am satisfied, and it is a great blessing to sleep with you."
After that, Mei Wanru's water snake waist, who was leading the way in front, deliberately twisted even more, and took the opportunity to go up the stairs with snow-white thighs that were hidden from time to time, and the fragrance was incomparably beautiful.
Song Yuhang, who was following behind, could only smile helplessly As soon as he entered the door, Song Yuhang was shocked to find a room full of people drinking tea or smoking cigarettes chatting, Wei Lihuang, Huang Qixiang, Song Xilian, Huo Zhang and others formed a small circle, as if they were discussing something in a low voice Song Xilian first found out about Song Yuhang's arrival, and Zhang Luo said: "Brother Anyi, Commander Wei, you can wait for yourself to be alone, and you will punish yourself for three cups after the banquet."
Song Yuhang looked around and found that everyone who was really good enough to come had already come, and secretly glanced at his watch in embarrassment, at this time it was still half an hour earlier than the time on the invitation.
But in the face of so many seniors and superiors.
He didn't dare to say that it wasn't that he was late, but that you all came early After Wei Lihuang and the others entered the table one after another, all the army and division commanders had serious expressions on their faces, as if they were not eating, but holding a combat meeting.
Seeing this atmosphere, Song Yuhang secretly regretted it, and Xindao knew that he had to find an excuse to shirk what he said, so why bother to live here After being silent for a moment, Wei Lihuang picked up his wine glass and looked around at everyone, and said loudly: "The national disaster is at the head.
This time, our army gathered in western Yunnan to meet the Japanese army in Burma, which is related to the general interests of the country and the nation, and all departments cannot afford to slack off. ” After a pause, Wei Lihuang walked to the room and said: "Recently, I have heard that some people are talking about the matter of sending troops to Burma here, I still have a word, soldiers don't care about political affairs, you as senior generals should set an example for the below, I hope that this topic will end here."
Regardless of whether troops are sent or not.
As soldiers, we have weapons of life and death in our hands.
All have to be ready for battle. ” Wei Lihuang's words are a very clear signal, that is, to tell everyone here that Shangfeng is likely to give an order to send troops to Burma, and it is always wrong to prepare in advance.
After Wei Lihuang finished speaking, Huang Qixiang announced the opening of the banquet, Zhang Luo everyone ate and drank all kinds of dishes and served them like water, and more than a dozen young women in cheongsams also walked into the table with various musical instruments in their hands.
