Anti-Japanese War: The whole world is a base vehicle

Chapter 74 Maybe we will have a chance to cooperate in the future! (Please subscribe!)
It can't be that the fake Li Gui meets the real Li Kui, right?
Lu Yuhua is a bit square.

This German guy has a really keen sense of smell.

I originally thought that we would have to wait until we captured Nanning before attracting the attention of the Germans.

Who knew it would only take so long before the Germans arrived?

It was indeed a little beyond his expectations.

In fact, all this is to blame on the Japanese army.

They repeatedly sent notes to the German ambassador in Japan to lodge strong protests.

There was no choice, they could only come once.

The result was the previous scene. The 150mm howitzer could be explained, but how to explain the 170mm and 240mm?

So they ran directly from Nanning City to their position.

"Commander, would you like to meet me?" Long Wenjian winked, meaning that his own commander was more famous. The Germans came directly from the city. Would this mean that they should not attack?
It’s no wonder that Long Wenjian made this guess. It’s just that Lu Yuhua has always been making up the story of a mysterious German arms dealer.

Now that the Germans have come, they must have something to discuss.

Considering that they had been fighting back and forth with the Japanese army over the past two days and even had a slight upper hand, I could only guess that they were here to negotiate peace.

If it were anyone else, they would definitely not give him this face, but if it were a German, they would definitely give him some face.

Lu Yuhua roughly guessed what Long Wenjian was thinking, but he was too lazy to explain it now.

Instead, I'm thinking about whether to meet.

It would definitely be inappropriate if we don't meet.

If we meet, there might be a risk of being exposed.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuhua gave instructions to Long Wenjian.

"Long Wenjian, take the Second Battalion to see where the 36th Army is, and then help them defend the northern position to prevent a surprise attack by the Japanese cavalry."

"Commander..." Long Wenjian wanted to ask him to meet him, but who knew that he would ask him to help defend the position.

"Follow orders." Lu Yuhua glared.

After Long Wenjian left in disappointment, Lu Yuhua asked Liu Yi to invite people over, but the shelling did not stop.

It's just a contest of attrition, it's not like we can't defeat the Japanese army.

We can have two or three guns in exchange for one heavy artillery piece from the Japanese.

Do the Japanese dare?

Therefore, his main strategy now is to fight a war of attrition, and the final result will definitely be unbearable for the Japanese army.

Not long after, Colonel William and his entourage were taken to the 714th Garrison Regiment. Along the way, he saw the other side wearing German uniforms and carrying German weapons. If it weren't for the different skin color of the other side, he would have thought this was Germany.

This is no longer called a German-equipped division.

It can be said to be the German army.

Who is selling the weapons and equipment?
Colonel William's mind was full of doubts.

Unfortunately, no one could answer his question.

It was not until he arrived at Lu Yuhua's regiment headquarters and saw Lu Yuhua wearing the same colonel's uniform as him that Colonel William was stunned.

"Colonel, please come in." Lu Yuhua took the initiative to extend his hand to signal the other party to come in first.

After entering the regiment headquarters, Colonel William took a quick glance at the map of Nanning City and the sand table in front of him with a frivolous frown. The layout was very detailed and it seemed that the opponent's military level was very good.

He had also come across some ragtag armies whose headquarters were in disarray and whose maps were not standard.

There is a big discrepancy between what is marked on the map and the actual situation.

He is not a qualified military commander at all.

"I didn't expect to see you here again." Lu Yuhua sighed as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Oh? Have you seen us?" Colonel William switched to Chinese, and he was very fluent.

"Huh? You can speak Chinese?" Lu Yuhua was surprised. He really didn't expect that Colonel William could speak Chinese. It was really beyond his expectations.

"Let me introduce myself. I'm Colonel William, the military attaché of the German Embassy in Japan." Colonel William straightened his military uniform and began to introduce himself in a serious manner.

"Colonel Lu Yuhua, deputy commander of the Guangxi Security Corps and commander of the 714th Garrison Regiment." Lu Yuhua also followed suit and introduced himself.

"I guess you should know why we are here." Colonel William asked seriously.

"I don't know." Lu Yuhua naturally pretended to be stupid and looked at the other party with a blank face.

Colonel William was stunned when he heard this. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Lu Yuhua continue.

"Are they sending us equipment? If that's the case, then you should go talk to the war zone commander, or talk to Yamashiro directly. I'm sure they will be very interested."

Colonel William was so angry that he laughed. This guy was just pretending to be stupid. How could he not know what he was saying?

"What I'm asking is who sold these equipment to you?" Colonel William asked in a serious tone.

"Can't we make it ourselves?" Lu Yuhua answered him confidently, because it was originally made by him.

"Huh? I'm not saying anything harsh, but don't you understand what's wrong with your industrial level? The 150mm howitzer can be said to be barely produced because some of your people have studied in our arsenal." William's words surprised Lu Yuhua. Has anyone gone to study there?
Why don't you know?
Then why wasn’t it built during the entire Anti-Japanese War?

The industry is really not good.

No!

Go back and find out who they are, and then think of a way to poach them. This kind of talent must be protected.

These are all treasures.

Those people in Shancheng still don’t take it seriously enough.

Even if we can't build a 150mm howitzer, can't we replace it with a smaller caliber one?
"But you definitely cannot produce the K18 170mm cannon and the 240mm K3 heavy artillery. Someone must have sold them to you. Tell me, who is it?" Colonel William asked step by step.

Who would have thought that Lu Yuhua would sit down, take a sip of tea, and ask in a leisurely manner.

"Colonel William, although we used to have a good relationship, including your help in training the German-equipped division, we will never forget this favor, but what is our relationship now?"

This kind of ex-girlfriend-like questioning made Colonel William stunned, and he didn't know how to refute for a moment.

"I've allowed you to enter my headquarters and see these things because you helped us in the past. Your Excellency Colonel, you are so aggressive. Do you still have any sense of honor of the Prussian Officer Corps?" Lu Yuhua's words silenced him directly. Several officers who followed Colonel William also lowered their heads subconsciously.

"If I remember correctly, you are now preparing to seek an alliance with the Japanese army. Logically speaking, you are their quasi-allies, which means we are our prepared enemies. The fact that we have not fought against each other is already a great remembrance of our past kindness."

Hearing these words, Colonel William did not get angry at all. Instead, he sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and followed suit.

"That's right. What I said just now was based on the interests of the Empire. We must find out who sold these weapons. After all, our quasi-ally's repeated inquiries have annoyed our ambassador and have affected the normal relationship between the two sides."

Hearing this, Lu Yuhua's eyes lit up and said, "Okay."

Affects the relationship?
That means there is an opportunity to steal someone's girlfriend.

Do not!
It should be said that it is an opportunity to put on eye drops.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuhua pondered over what to say to make the relationship between the two parties worse.

"In fact, there are many people in our army who sympathize with your situation. But I'm sorry, considering the interests of the empire, an alliance with the Japanese army is the best solution. I believe you should understand this." Colonel William no longer had his previous arrogance, but spoke calmly.

"I understand. It's nothing more than a combined fleet. Your weakness is the navy. I hope you can find a country with a strong navy." Lu Yuhua nodded and said.

"That's right." William was full of appreciation, and then sighed again.

"It would be even better if you also had a strong navy."

Hearing this, Lu Yuhua did not answer, but looked at the other party and asked with a smile.

"If we had a strong navy, would the Japanese dare to invade us? Sir Colonel, if I remember correctly, you also had a strong navy in the past, but unfortunately, it sank in the sea later."

Isn't it just hurting each other?

Who wouldn't?

When it comes to exposing scars, who is Lu Yuhua afraid of?
What you mean is that we just need a strong navy?

Do you have a navy? Just your navy?

Isn't that all?

The eldest brother does not laugh at the second brother.

As expected, Colonel William's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

"And the idea of ​​cooperation you mentioned, huh, any cooperation requires sincerity. I don't know what your sincerity is? Betrayal? With your sincerity, who would dare to cooperate with you even if we have a strong navy?" Lu Yuhua continued to sneer.

Upon hearing the word betrayal, Colonel William's expression became even uglier, as did the others.

"Did I say something wrong? Our two countries originally cooperated very well. With your help, I believe we could definitely defeat the Japanese army. But what about you? You have no sense of contract. How can I believe in your sincerity?" Lu Yuhua's words made many people blush.

They are all honest people!

After being scared like this, I felt really ashamed.

The Germans should send some experienced guys.

After a long time, Colonel William's expression calmed down a little. He took a deep breath and said to Lu Yuhua.

"Colonel Lu, you know, these are not things we can change. We are just following orders. In fact, we still have great sincerity towards you. Although the war has started, we still shipped a lot of weapons in those two years."

If it were an ordinary person, he would probably really believe it. Only Lu Yuhua said with a chuckle.

"If I'm not mistaken, you continue to transport weapons for the tungsten ore, right? And the bristles, these are all your strategic materials, and you are almost ready for war now, right? You even want revenge."

"To wash away the shame brought by the last war, you are hoarding minerals everywhere."

"Tungsten ore is a good thing. Whether it's the army, the navy, or the air force, they all need tungsten ore to make armor-piercing bullets. Isn't it because of these reasons that you have been selling weapons continuously?"

“The arms embargo was later issued simply because the Japanese occupied those tungsten mines.”

"As for the so-called alliance with the Japanese army, it seems that the Japanese army does not want to form an alliance with you, and has even made excuses many times, right?"

"In the final analysis, what you value is nothing more than strength. The so-called spirit of the treaty is probably gone long ago, right?"

"As a member of the Prussian officer corps, Colonel William, please tell me, do you still abide by the Teutonic Chivalry Treaty?"

Lu Yuhua's words left Colonel William completely speechless.

"Colonel William, let's be honest. Don't use any nonsense. Just tell me what you are thinking about when you come here?" Lu Yuhua sneered.

"To find out the source of these weapons." Colonel William was silent for a while and stated his purpose again.

"I made it myself." Lu Yuhua spread his hands to indicate that he made it himself.

The emperor himself created it.

"Colonel Lu, is this your sincerity?" Colonel William said angrily.

"Yes, this is my sincerity, Colonel William. Let's discuss other issues." Lu Yuhua said with a smile.

"What's the problem?" Colonel William was stunned. What else could he talk about with the other party?

If it weren't for finding out about these weapons, he wouldn't have come at all.

"Like the arrogant French?" Lu Yuhua couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

Wouldn't this give Britain and France something to do?
Wouldn't it be unfair to the other party for flying thousands of miles to come here?
"Arrogant French? You think they are arrogant too? They really deserve to go to hell." The officer next to him nodded in agreement without waiting for William to speak.

"Shut up..." Colonel William felt helpless, what a bunch of idiots.

"Colonel William, I think what he said makes sense. Those arrogant French people should go to hell, and I don't think they are your opponents." Lu Yuhua said indifferently.

"Oh? Why do you say that? They are now the world's number one army?" Colonel William immediately became interested and asked in surprise.

If it were an ordinary person, Colonel William would think that the other party was a lunatic, but the fact that he could cause such a headache for the Japanese army showed that he must be an excellent commander. He said so, so he must have his own opinion.

"France today is not the France of the past. They can only mobilize the greatest fighting power under the leadership of women and dwarves."

Hearing this, everyone laughed. It seemed that this young colonel knew France very well.

"Not to mention, they suffered heavy losses in the last war, and an entire generation of them remained on the battlefield. Now they are very war-weary. As long as you can win a big victory, they will surrender."

"I wonder if you have ever heard a saying?"

"What?" Everyone suddenly became interested and looked at Lu Yuhua.

"It is said that no one can occupy France before Paris surrenders."

Hearing this, everyone laughed even more happily and had a better impression of this humorous colonel.

They may not understand at first, but after William’s explanation, everyone understood.

The simple answer is that as long as we reach Paris, France will surrender.

"Well, you are right. Although I think it is a bit insulting to the French army, their combat effectiveness is still good after all." Colonel William said after thinking for a while.

"Oh? Really? Do you really think so?" Lu Yuhua said with a smile.

"Of course, the Maginot Line they built is very solid. Even heavy artillery may not be able to destroy it." Colonel William pointed at the 240mm heavy artillery that was firing.

"Well, you are right, but I believe you will definitely come up with a solution and wipe out the French army in one fell swoop." Lu Yuhua responded casually.

Perhaps because of these words, Colonel William had a better impression of Lu Yuhua.

Seeing that he couldn't get any other information out of him, he gave up the idea of ​​continuing the conversation and prepared to leave.

But Lu Yuhua was unwilling to let the other party leave so easily, he had his own ideas.

"Colonel William, do you think there will be opportunities for us to cooperate in the future?"

Hearing this, Colonel William was stunned, not knowing what this meant.

Cooperation?

How to cooperate?

How can we cooperate when most of the territory has been lost?

"Colonel Lu, as you said, without a strong navy, we have no basis for cooperation. I'm sorry, although it sounds a bit unpleasant, it is the fact. Although I have a good impression of you, based on national interests, the Japanese army is our best solution." Colonel William spread his hands and said helplessly.

Hearing this, Lu Yuhua did not get angry, but asked back.

"You are cooperating with the Japanese army just to make them attack the British and French colonies in Southeast Asia, right? This will distract some of the energy of Britain and France, so that you can carry out your next action smoothly, such as blitzkrieg Poland? Divide Poland with the Soviet army?"

“Although the Soviet-German Mutual Assistance Agreement was signed in secret, many people know about it.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of Colonel William and other officers changed drastically. They did not expect that someone knew such a secret information.

More importantly, the other side actually knew that they wanted to divide Poland.

Considering that the other party has so many German equipment, it must have been leaked by someone.

Who on earth is it?
Colonel William filtered the few people he knew about it and found that it was impossible.

"Don't be so nervous. No one else knows this news except me." Lu Yuhua signaled the other party not to panic.

"Colonel Lu, what exactly do you want to do?" Colonel William asked with a frown after taking a deep breath.

"I'm not doing anything, I just want to discuss cooperation. Of course, not the current cooperation, but the cooperation in the near future." Lu Yuhua chuckled.

"The Japanese army is still hesitating whether to form an alliance with you. What if I can let Britain and France in Southeast Asia fall into chaos before that? I wonder how sincere I am?"

Lu Yuhua had already made a plan that after retaking Nanning, he would consider driving the base vehicle to Nanyang.

He wants to seize the initiative.

Of course he couldn't tell this to anyone.

So the mention is also very obscure.

"You mean, can you let Britain and France in Southeast Asia fall into chaos first? If that's the case, it may not be enough. As I said before, we must have a strong navy. We don't lack allies in land warfare, but we lack allies in naval warfare." Colonel William said with some regret.

"It's okay, I just mentioned it. Maybe there will be a chance in the future. Before that, I can give you a piece of information about tanks. I wonder if you are interested." Lu Yuhua showed a cunning smile.
