Spy Shadow: Command & Conquer

Chapter 2070, All Sent to Siberia
All I can say is that the victory came too quickly.

Zhang Yong didn't dare reveal too much beforehand, lest he appear too charlatan.

Therefore, when the Japanese invaders read out the proclamation of the end of the war, most of the high-ranking officials of the Chinese government were actually skeptical.

I hope the news is true, but I'm also worried it might be false.

After all, they couldn't bear to see the Japanese mainland turn into a wasteland.

It seems that the Japanese troops currently stationed in China can still put up some resistance.

At least, the Japanese invaders had amassed a large number of troops around Hankou.

In Jiujiang and Nanchang, the Japanese invaders also stationed large numbers of troops.

It's not impossible for the Nationalist army to take it, but it would come at a very heavy price.

Even if Zhang Yong were to personally command, it would likely result in tens of thousands of casualties.

Meanwhile, it may take six months or more.

"Shaolong, what do you think the Japanese invaders will do?"

Xue Yue was still unsure.

He was still worried that the Japanese invaders might take some crazy actions.

Therefore, the Nationalist troops on the front lines in the Ninth War Zone could not afford to let their guard down.

Be prepared for battle at all times.

Be prepared to respond to any possible changes.

If someone on the Japanese side takes a risk and goes mad with evil, who knows what might happen?

Caution is the boat.

"The Japanese invaders will send someone to contact us and discuss the handover."

"They're surrendering. A handover?"

"We need to discuss this beforehand. We'll send a small force over first to control key fortifications, as well as the Japanese arsenals, train stations, docks, and so on."

Where should we discuss this?

"Let's go to Changsha!"

Zhang Yong remained calm. He figured it was probably his job again.

Although I was very careful and didn't change much of history, things still changed.

Changsha is the closest city to Hankou. The Japanese representatives could easily reach Changsha by boat from Hankou. By plane, it would be even faster.

Why not Chongqing?

"What right do the Japanese have to go to Chongqing?"

"Uh……"

Xue Yue was taken aback. Then he understood.

That's right. The Japanese invaders are now the defeated. They have to surrender. They must be treated as inferior.

What qualifications do they have to go to the capital? It's even less likely that the Chairman will meet with them directly. It will definitely be someone from below who will represent them.

Zhang Yong was undoubtedly the most suitable candidate. He possessed sufficient deterrent power. The Japanese invaders dared not bare their teeth.

I'm just a little worried that the commissioner might deliberately cause trouble.

What if the Commissioner doesn't want the Japanese to surrender?

What if the commissioner wants to continue bombarding us?

"report!"

At this moment, Min Gang arrived.

Xue Yue then took his leave.

"Reporting to the Commissioner, the paratroopers have landed safely in Nanjing. There has been no resistance so far."

"it is good."

Zhang Yong nodded.

The map of the air force command center has been displayed.

All twenty DC-3 transport planes were intact.

However, the air command map cannot display specific troop numbers. Therefore, we can only rely on reports from the front lines.

Fortunately, paratroopers are currently equipped with a large number of radios.

They are basically deployed up to the company level.

"The paratroopers are asking whether they should be stationed at the airport tonight."

"Yes, stationed at the airport."

"Specialist, will the air freight continue tomorrow?"

"Yes, continue air transport. Starting tomorrow, take control of the stations and docks."

Zhang Yong nodded. Suddenly remembering something, he added, "And the Presidential Palace and Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum."

He now has enough transport planes to quickly airlift people.

Tomorrow, we should be able to airlift 1500 people over to control more areas of Nanjing.

Once there are two thousand people in Jinling, Zhang Yong can then go there as well.

Even if the Japanese invaders wanted to resist, they had no chance left.

"Crackling and popping..."

"Crackling and popping..."

Suddenly, a burst of firecrackers went off outside.

Actually, there had been some firecrackers before, but they were sporadic. Now they're being set off en masse.

Victory.

It's definitely worth celebrating.

A joyous occasion calls for fireworks.

"Minister Min."

"exist."

"Let's put on a fireworks show too."

"tonight?"

"Yes. I'll pay tonight."

Zhang Yong took out a bag of silver dollars. It was estimated to contain about five hundred.

It should last for about half an hour. It can be set off spectacularly, enough to be seen by the entire city of Changsha.

"so much?"

"Yes. We need to be quick. Otherwise, all the firecrackers will be sold out."

"it is good."

Min Gang went happily.

Zhang Yong can now celebrate comfortably.

He took Qiao Qingzi back to Yu Muge's villa. There, he enjoyed time with a group of women and their children.

She held Su Youxi in her arms. In terms of looks, she was still the most outstanding, even though she had already given birth to three daughters. However, her delicate brows were slightly furrowed, and she seemed sullen.

There's nothing she can do; all her other sisters have sons, but she doesn't. It worries her a lot.

A night of pleasure. And then, another new day begins.

After last night's revelry, the second day was surprisingly quiet.

All major war zones issued orders to suspend all military operations. However, vigilance was maintained against the Japanese invaders directly in front of them.

Until the Japanese invaders finally lay down their weapons, anything said is meaningless.

Zhang Yong's task today is to dispatch a small force to Hankou and seize Hankou Airport.

Currently, the Japanese 11th Army is still stationed in Hankou, but its size has decreased.

The former 11th Army had a force of 200,000 men, all of whom were elite troops.

However, at present, only the 3rd Division is a regular unit. All the others are independent mixed brigades.

The total troop strength barely exceeded 100,000. However, its overall combat effectiveness had plummeted several levels. Most of its heavy weapons had also been redeployed.

If the Japanese hadn't built such sophisticated fortifications, Zhang Yong would have actually wanted to continue fighting.

get up.

Have breakfast. Enjoy being surrounded by a group of beautiful women.

Suddenly, the air traffic control map showed that a transport plane was taking off from Chongqing Airport.

There are quite a lot of them.

They were all C-47 transport planes from the American air force.

Ok?
what's the situation?
Where are they going? What are they going to do?
Nobody notified me?
Immediately activate the 5C communication center. Connect to Baishiyi Airport. Find Zhou Zhirou.

As it turned out, Zhou Zhirou was not there. There was only one deputy.

"Your airport has a large number of transport planes taking off. Where are they going?"

Zhang Yong sensed something was amiss.

Is there some conspiracy targeting me again?
"Reporting to the commissioner, the transport plane is heading to Changsha Airport."

"Where is your Commander-in-Chief Zhou?"

"It's also on the plane. It will randomly arrive at Changsha Airport."

Who is inside the transport plane?

"Americans. Fully armed. Supposedly a special operations team."

"is it?"

Zhang Yong's brows gradually relaxed.

If it's the United States, it's probably not targeting them personally.

To be fair, I have a pretty good relationship with the US Navy. My relationship with MacArthur is also fairly good.

But why is the other party being so mysterious?

"Ring ring ring!"

"Ring ring ring!"

The phone rang in the lobby. Yang Dai went to answer it.

A moment later, the report came in that it was Min Gang calling from the airport. It was urgent.

Zhang Yong then stood up and came over to answer the phone.

"what's up?"

"Commissioner, Devont has something very important to discuss with you. He'll be at Changsha Airport soon, please wait for him here."

"Deventer? He's in Changsha? Did he say anything?"

Zhang Yong seemed to be deep in thought.

He also has a good relationship with Devonte.

With his help, Devonte now has two stars.

He was a Major General in the U.S. Marine Corps. However, he did not serve in combat units later on; instead, he went to headquarters.

When did this guy appear so quietly? What's he doing here?
There's probably no conspiracy. Something definitely happened.

"I see."

Zhang Yong then hung up the phone and went back to have breakfast.

Breakfast was finished quickly. Then we returned to the airport.

The transport plane arrived quickly.

Landing. A large number of American soldiers disembarked.

Approximately two hundred people. Traveling on ten of the latest C-47 transport planes.

The one leading the charge was indeed Devonte.

But strangely, this guy was wearing casual clothes.

In addition, there were two officers in British military uniforms. One was a colonel, and the other a major.

Step forward.

"Commissioner, we meet again."

Devonte was very enthusiastic.

They opened their arms from a great distance.

Zhang Yong: ...

This guy really has a terrible temper.

Back in China, he seemed to dislike everyone. His only good relationship was with Zhang Yong.

When Stilwell and the bald man argued, De Winter was a staunch supporter of Stilwell. It's said he once slammed his fist on the table in front of the bald man. He was very arrogant.

Later, Stilwell was transferred, and De Winter was also transferred back to the United States. But they were still very angry with the bald man.

This guy publicly declared that he would definitely teach the bald guy a lesson.

They actually did it. When the bald man needed help the most, they decisively cut off his access.

Hug me tightly.

This expresses welcome.

separate.

"What are you here for?"

"We need your help with a special mission."

"What mission?"

"Go to the Northeast. Bring General Wainwright and General Percival back."

"You can go by yourselves, why are you asking me?"

"We're not very familiar with the Soviet side. We hope you can mediate between them."

"What do I have to offer for relaxation?"

"Hehe. Don't think we don't know. You have a very good relationship with Marshal Zhukov, Marshal Rokossovsky, and General Chuikov as well."

"to be honest."

"The Soviet side stated that a third party must be present. And they specifically designated you."

"I am truly honored!"

"Please!"

Devont understood that the other party responded better to gentle persuasion than force.

As long as you adopt a humble attitude and a proper demeanor, the other party will definitely agree.

Zhang Yong: ...

Ruined.

This guy is really something...

You're not a beauty. The kind with teary eyes.

He actually uttered those two words.

but……

There's really no way to refuse.

Wainwright and Percival were both imprisoned by the Japanese in Northeast China.

After the Soviet Red Army swept through Northeast China, they had already liberated them. However, there were some ulterior motives regarding their return.

Well, the US and the Soviet Union began to have some minor disagreements.

It's not out in the open, but it's in the shadows.

After all, they are all superpowers. They all want to be number one in the world.

A nation with an invincible navy and air force.

Everything that flies in the sky or swims in the water is something that makes people shudder.

An army with an invincible force.

A massive torrent of steel sent shivers down the spines of the entire European continent.

Especially after sweeping away the remnants of the Japanese Kwantung Army, the Soviet Red Army's ground offensive capabilities terrified even the United States.

The number of T-34 tanks currently in service alone exceeds 50,000!

"The Soviets didn't greet me."

"You'll understand when you get to Fengtian. Vasilevsky is there."

"Row."

Zhang Yong did not refuse.

That Vasilevsky... he was a genius too!

I had assumed Rokossovsky had already risen through the ranks the fastest. But it turns out there was someone even faster.

The key point is that this Vasilevsky had never been on the front lines before.

He rose through the ranks purely through promotions within the General Staff Department.

They didn't begin going to the front lines until after 1945, from East Prussia to the Far East.

So preparations began.

Departing from Changsha Airport, bound for Luoyang.

Then fly directly from Luoyang to Fengtian. The C-47's range is sufficient.

Flying silently.

Zhang Yong was in charge of navigation.

Finally, the plane landed safely at Fengtian Airport.

Zhang Yong looked around and found himself surrounded by rows of Soviet soldiers.

The PPSh submachine gun in their hands is their most obvious identifier.

There are also some red dots. They are all concentrated in one area.

They were probably put under centralized guard by the Soviet army and were being prepared to be sent to Siberia to dig potatoes.

Excellent arrangement.

Go back and think of a solution yourself.

He also sent Okamura Yasuji and his troops to Siberia.

At worst, I'll pay for it myself. They'll be sent from the Chinese mainland. The Soviets should need it.

"please."

"please."

Get on the vehicle. Heading to the Soviet General Headquarters.

Finally, I saw Vasilevsky; he had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was very robust.

Well, those who managed to survive to the end in the brutal war were all in excellent physical condition. Otherwise, they would have fallen ill long ago.

The same applies to Zhukov, Rokossovsky, Chuikov, and others.

Rarely gets sick. Very resilient.

First, your body has to be able to handle it. Only then will you have the opportunity to talk about other things.

"open!"

"Marshal!"

Zhang Yong and Vasilevsky shook hands.

I immediately felt the opponent's immense power. Truly worthy of being a polar bear!
"Please take a seat."

"Thank you!"

“Zhang, I’ve heard Constantine mention you often.”

"Thank you!"

Zhang Yong gave a modest reply.

The Constantine mentioned by the other party is Rokossovsky.

Does the other person really mention me often? It's probably just mutual flattery!

"Constantine has always learned from you and is very popular with beautiful women. Even Polish actresses have fallen for him."

"what……"

Zhang Yong thought to himself, "If you keep chatting like this, you're going to kill the conversation."

What does it mean to learn from me?
Was it me who sent him to get entangled with the Polish actress?

The two were simply in a passionate encounter, both willing. One was after the other's beauty, the other after his power.

Of course, it wasn't said aloud.

That's certainly true of Zhang Yong now.

It seems that someone of his status and position shouldn't even talk about true love.

If he had no power or influence, probably no woman would want to be with him.

Society is just that cruel.

"By the way, Zhang, I need to discuss something with you..."

"You said."

"After a long war, we are facing a severe labor shortage..."

"I will give you all the prisoners of war."

"Ok?"

Vasilevsky was somewhat surprised.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yong had already guessed his meaning.

Strange, Rokossovsky didn't know about this!
really……

That person is amazing!

"In fact, I would love to. I hope you will send them all to Siberia to dig potatoes."

Zhang Yong said calmly.

Vasilevsky's eyes narrowed immediately.

"why?"

“They have committed enormous crimes, and sending them back to their home countries would be too lenient for them.”

"It seems we have reached a consensus."

"it is good!"

Zhang Yong shook hands with the other party in a pleasant manner.

The deal is done.

So delicious...

So awesome...
