Chapter 212
Welcome! Hahaha!
Jang Gaeseok was in a good mood for the first time in a long time.
He threw away his dignity and face in front of others, and hugged his old friend whom he had not seen for a long time.
Thank you for your hospitality
No, what are you talking about! Come on in. You must have had a hard time. Your face is so pale
Alexander von Falkenhausen, the former head of the German military advisory group in China, shook Jang Gaeseoks hand with a haggard face.
Tears flowed from his wrinkled eyes.
How long had it been since he returned to China! In 1938, after Germanys Trautmann Plan to reconcile China and Japan failed, the Fhrer finally chose Japan as his ally.
The German military advisory group that had been sent to support the Nationalist Government of China had to withdraw eventually.
Falkenhausen loved China, and Jang Gaeseok did not want to let him go, but the Fhrer threatened to harm his family, so he had to leave.
Falkenhausen returned to the German army and served again after the Second World War started, but he was accused of being involved in a conspiracy to assassinate the Fhrer and was sent to a concentration camp.
He was tortured there for years until Germany collapsed. The Soviet Union took a considerable number of prisoners from the camp and dragged them to Siberia or Central Asia, where Falkenhausen served for a few months before bribing a guard and escaping.
There was hardly any place to escape in Europe, which was occupied by the Soviet Union I thank you for your infinite kindness, Mr. President.
What are you talking about, General? You are a friend of China. And if these people who escaped with you are your friends, they are no different from my friends. Especially at this point, Im very glad to see you.
A middle-aged colonel who was supporting the weakened Falkenhausen and nine others were able to escape together.
They fled from a camp in Kazakhstan and crossed Xinjiang and Tibet to enter the territory of the Nationalist Government.
Thank you again. I heard the rumors
Thats right. Most of the elite troops that the military advisory group trained, including you, General, were lost in the war over the past seven years. But now that you are back, we will surely win! Hahaha!
Jang Gaeseok laughed heartily with a confident face. Falkenhausen also smiled faintly and nodded.
The Nationalist Government was negotiating with the Communists while preparing to drive them out. The National Revolutionary Army was reassembled and trained fiercely, and the Communist bandits also intensified their assassination and guerrilla tactics.
But now that Falkenhausen had arrived, the victory of the National Revolutionary Army was as good as predetermined.
And may I ask you one favor?
What is it? I can grant you not just one, but ten favors. Just tell me.
Thank you Its just that, I wonder if you could help our officers who fled to seek asylum in China.
At that, Jang Gaeseok and the other Chinese were surprised.
A considerable number of Germans had fled from the Soviet Union. Many of them ran away to Spain or southern Italy in Europe. And many others escaped to South America, where white people lived.
Falkenhausen sympathized with his old colleagues who had to hide their identities and live there for the rest of their lives.
And Jang Gaeseok needed them.
Good! Very good!
Under the training of the German military advisory group, the National Revolutionary Army was reborn as an elite. In the fifth anti-communist campaign, which almost wiped out the Communists, the German-style tactic of crushing the Tachanka was effective in suppressing the Communists forte of guerrilla warfare.
Also, in the war with Japan, the troops trained in the German way made a significant contribution to overcoming Japans offensive. n0ve(l)bi(n.)co/m
And I sent Jang Gaeseok some German officers.
They probably thought they had bribed their way out, or that they were lucky to escape. A considerable number of German officers had been brought in for my scientific training group to use as opponents, or for military research.
I planned to pick out the suitable ones among them and send them to China.
Jang Gaeseoks military ability was honestly abysmal.
He could win when he faced the warlords, who were equally abysmal at strategy, or when he had overwhelming resources to crush a handful of guerrillas, but he lost to equal opponents.
For example, China was much wider than European Russia in the toxic war. Yet, the Nationalist China had to struggle to resist the Japanese army.
But what if the German officers trained the National Revolutionary Army as an elite force? Even Mao Zedong, the unrivaled guerrilla leader, would have a hard time.
I Comrade Secretary, I understand that you appreciate Mao Zedong, but what if something goes wrong and Jang Gaeseok wins
Molotov, dont worry too much. China is vast, and it will take Jang Gaeseok a long time to push up. When I think the main force has been exhausted enough, Ill tell the Americans! Hahaha!
What if it goes wrong?
The Soviet armys intervention was a last resort. It was not good to confront hundreds of millions of Chinese on that huge land of China. It was also a stupid move to attract global attention.
The Soviet armys direct military action was enough to intervene at the request of France.
What do you think the Americans would say if they found out that the Nazi remnants and the Nationalist China were cooperating? Oh, well done, they would be happy?
They would be very upset.
Thats right, thats it!
The underdog Communists would probably hold on. Land redistribution was an irresistible temptation for hundreds of millions of peasants.
And when I think the Nationalist China has won enough, Ill expose to the international community that they are hiding and using the Nazi remnants. Maybe even Eastern Europe, France, and Britain would join the game.
Were using them too but it doesnt matter if we dont get caught.
The German officers who were dragged to the Siberian plain were literally being squeezed out. Their military knowledge would soon become obsolete due to the amazing development of rockets and air force technology, but they were still useful.
The elite Soviet officers who were recognized as competent and allowed to stay in the army had to lead their units and fight mock battles that were like real ones in the Siberian training group.
Field battles, tank battles, artillery battles, air battles, trench battles and mountain battles, and even landing battles!
They would be trained by fighting the German elites in the mock battlefields that were adjusted in various ways.
And they would now be sent to the Third World as a means of advanced military technology and revolution export.
Oh, right. How did the Middle Eastern countries respond to the proposal to send military advisers?
Yes! First, Egypt requested the dispatch of about 40 military advisers. Jordan and Iraq are still undecided Turkey requested a scale of about 100.
Turkey? Thats good. And also review the dispatch of Spetsnaz advisers.
Yes, Comrade Secretary!
Of course, I couldnt send the Soviet army directly. That would only result in the same fate as the Afghan war in real history.
I intended to exert military power in the local area through the sale of military supplies and the training of competent officers.
It was a last resort to recklessly send an army that was not familiar with the local area. Guerrillas who were familiar with the battlefield could easily defeat an army that was trained in field battles.
Whos the fool whos still sending troops these days! Hahaha!
There seemed to be a fool across the English Channel who was doing that.
