Volume 10 Reshuffle Chapter 51 Abandoning Former Hatreds

As small as Baolong, Pei Chengyi has a new understanding of the Argentine president. If Xinfan makes a small comment, in Pei Chengyi's opinion, Theron is far inferior to Wang Yuanqing. The Argentine president, who was in high spirits two days ago and did not take Junzhuo's adviser seriously, had just encountered some small trouble and regarded Pei Chengyi as a savior. The huge contrast forced Pei Chengyi to believe that Theron was an absolute politician.

Whether it is a politician or a politician, Pei Chengyi has to face the Argentine president.

"General Pei, you're finally here."

Pei Chengyi nodded politely and sat on the sofa opposite Theron without hesitation. Although there was enough reason to believe that the Argentine president had no other choice and could only place his hope on the supreme military adviser, before figuring out the situation, Pei Chengyi did not want to act rashly, so as not to feel disappointed again.

"General Pei has seen the recent news reports?" Theron looked a little embarrassed. Seeing Pei Chengyi still had no intention of speaking, he said, "General Pei also knows the relationship between Ling and Si. It is innocence to be hiding. The deleted reports do not exaggerate the facts. Our army's transport fleet was ambushed by British submarines early this morning, about ten hours ago. The latest news I received was that three escort warships and five transport ships were sunk, and the two submarines carrying out secret escort missions also lost contact with the base."

"If I guess correctly, your army failed to sink a British submarine in battle

Theron's brow jumped a few times, and his expression suddenly became very ugly.

Pei Chengyi calmly handed the documents he brought to Theron. When the Argentine president opened the documents, he said: "This is the latest information I have received. The ambushing of your fleet are four British submarines, two of which are the most advanced "fast-class attack craft".

Theron took a long breath and his eyes returned to the document. When he turned to the last page, he raised his head.

When contacted by the Argentine president's surprise gaze, Pei Chengyi gave a meaningful smile.

"This", is this true?"

"His Excellency President, do you still have prejudice against me?"

"No" of course not." Theron paused for a moment and said. "I just couldn't believe it, but I didn't expect that what British TV reported was actually the fact."

"It's not all true, but it's not much different." Pei Chengyi calmed down and said, "From the day I met you, I have made a guarantee of the honor of military personnel. As your country's highest military adviser, I will do everything to help your country win. Although some unpleasant things happened during this period, due to some trivial matters, I believe that I have the same purpose as the President, the Military Advisory Group and the Army, and the Republic and your country, otherwise we will not cross half of the earth and fight side by side with your country. As a soldier, I will not bow to the enemy. As the supreme leader of your country, I believe that you, like me, will never bow to the enemy. I believe that in order to defeat the common enemy and achieve common goals, we can abandon past grudges, work together and fight together."

Although Pei Chengyi said this very concealedly, his meaning was expressed very clearly.

"The general is right. For common purposes, we must cooperate sincerely. Just." Theron hesitated for a moment and said, "The current situation is very unfavorable to us. Even if the flag of your army is winning and clearing the sea route to the island of Cambodia, we cannot immediately transport the next batch of supplies to the island of Cambodia. I wonder if the general knows that if the island of Cambodia cannot be occupied as soon as possible, the situation will become even more unfavorable to us."

“In fact, you still underestimate the severity of the situation

Theron immediately frowned and waited for Pei Chengyi to continue talking.

"Although it is no point in holding the responsibility accountable, you should know that from the very beginning, I opposed your army's aggressive tactics, but no one took my warning seriously." Pei Chengyi smiled bitterly. He said, "At present, your country has lost not only a few warships and tens of thousands of tons of supplies, but the opportunity to win at the minimum price. In my opinion, if reinforcements can be sent to Mawu in time, especially armored troops equipped with heavy weapons, within a few days, at most today, your army can occupy Ma Island and begin to deploy defensive positions. At this point, even if the British refuse to admit defeat and insist on dispatching task force, your army can still wait for it, defeat without any suspense, or even annihilate the task force, forcing the British government to accept or default to the fait accompli.

Theron sighed inwardly, not refuting Pei Chengyi's point of view.

"It's a pity that the Your Army missed this opportunity to end the conflict as soon as possible Pei Chengyi paused for a moment before saying, "According to the current situation, the British dispatched the task force only has the suspense of time left. If it is not expected, within half a month, the British task force will set off from Portsmouth Port and arrive in the South Atlantic Ocean in late May. In order to maximize the determination, win international sympathy, and increase international prestige, the UK will also take action during this period, such as dispatching long-range fighter jets deployed on Ascension Island to symbolically bomb the Horse Island. The most important thing is that the British Navy will not do anything, and will definitely send a second batch of attack submarines besides organizing the task force. According to my judgment, as long as the British Navy has the awareness of a great power navy, it should send a second batch of attack submarines before this. That is to say, within this month, the second batch of British submarines will reach the war zone.

"This" is so fast?"

"This is still the most conservative estimate. Pei Chengyi smiled bitterly and said, "As a kilogram. A country built with the power of the sea, the old empire is sincere. Britain has never lacked resourcefulness and is rich in "generals. Half a century ago, your country had experienced the power of the British navy. Information has proved that since the beginning of this year, the British navy has strengthened the combat readiness patrol intensity in the waters of the Cambridge Island. The British submarines that ambushed your country's transport fleet arrived early last month.

That is to say, even if the normal rotation arrangement is made, another British submarine is likely to set off on April 15th, which is five days before the war begins. If the navigation accelerates on the day of the war, it is expected to arrive within five days. There is enough reason to believe that before your army organizes a second transport fleet, British submarines will block the waters of the Horse Island again. Unfortunately, our army has lost two submarines and it is difficult to continue to provide assistance to your army."

"General, you mean,"

After deliberately pondering for a while, Pei Chengyi said: "My mother doubts that your country will not only miss the opportunity, but will also face a life-and-death test. Although we have enough reason to believe that Britain will never invade your country, or even attack your country's mainland during the war, we also have to believe that if your country loses this war, whether it is Britain or the United States that secretly helps Britain, they are very happy to create a political unrest in your country, which will cause your country to decline rapidly, and there will be no hope in the next few decades.

"This is for sure. As long as we are defeated, Britain and the United States will never let us be peaceful."

Pei Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "So your country has no way out, so you can only show the spirit of burning your boats and fight against the enemy."

"We have made up our minds long ago, but "It's not enough to have courage and determination." Pei Chengyi turned Sunlight to Theron and said, "Although the situation is very unfavorable to your country, your country has not lost the war, and it may not necessarily lose the war. In my opinion, if your country can quickly adjust its strategy, seize every opportunity and make full use of various favorable conditions, not only can it achieve the final victory, but it can also gain the greatest benefit from it."

Theron frowned slightly and heard another meaning of this sentence.

"As your country's highest military adviser, I have the obligation to make plans for you." Pei Chengyi paused slightly and said, "My first suggestion is to change your army's command organization and establish a joint command jointly established by the three armed, navy and air force, intelligence agencies, relevant government departments and military advisory groups as soon as possible. We are fully responsible for your army's combat operations and maximize your country's war resources."

"Your Excellency, it is definitely not a time to make a decision." Pei Chengyi said with a serious expression. "Even if you make a wrong decision, it is much more shocking than not making a decision. Although I have not participated in the combat operations of your army and are not very clear about your army's combat plan, judging from the combat performance of your army in the past two days, it is not that your army's soldiers are not brave enough, nor that your army's equipment is not advanced enough, but that your army's command system has problems. In my experience, if you want to turn the situation around, your army's first thing is to do is to straighten out the command system."

Theron nodded slightly, pondered for a while, and said, "I will not hide it from the general. Before you arrive, I have a hotline with your head of state."

Pei Chengyi showed a look of surprise, but he didn't feel strange at all.

"According to the meaning of your head of state, if we want to win in this war, we must attach great importance to your suggestions." Theron said with a wry smile, "Although those unhappiness arises because I don't know much about the general, I believe that the head of state who can lead the Republic to win in two large-scale wars and bring a nation of one billion people into a new era will never be misjudged."

When Pei Chengyi heard Theron's words, he felt much more relaxed.

"I am not a soldier. But I know where our problem is." Theron smiled bitterly and said, "As the general said, the biggest problem of our army is that we are not in good command, we fight on our own, and we have not formed effective combat effectiveness. The problem is that even if we set up a joint command center according to the general's suggestions, it is impossible to change the status quo of our army in such a short time and solve the fundamental problems that exist within the army. I am not doubting the general's ability, but the situation of our army is very different from that of your army, and it is impossible to use your army's methods to solve our army's problems."

"Your Excellency is right. I don't deny it." Pei Chengyi knew that Theron was testing him. "Our army encountered the same problem more than ten years ago. When I was commanding the Peninsula War, the situation of our army was very similar to that of your army. The problems in the command system greatly limited our army's combat effectiveness. As you are worried about, we were not able to solve the problem of the command system during the war. In fact, there is no need to rush to solve the problem. To achieve short-term goals, the best way for thugs is to avoid unsolvable problems and make full use of the advantages of the existing command system."

"You mean,"

"Your Excellency, I do not despise your army, nor have I ever despise your army." Pei Chengyi paused for a moment and said, "Although the following words are very unpleasant, as your country's highest military adviser, I have the responsibility and obligation to point out the problems that exist in your army. In my opinion, the biggest problem with your army is the lack of a truly military commander. Mo Yong doubts that you are the supreme commander of your army. But as you said himself, you are not a soldier.

Understand war. In peacetime, it is not wrong to use literati to manage the army and use internal struggles to control generals. However, in the wartime, when everything is serving the war, what is most needed is a military commander who can lead the three armies. Unfortunately, in my opinion, this book in your army comes from the 8-pointer of the 8-pointer of the membership, which is a general who is crying like a crying prestige and ability. Pei Chengyi said this very impolitely.

Theron was not angry because Pei Chengyi was telling the fact that none of the Argentine troops could order the three armies and make all soldiers obey orders. Army commander Patos had the highest status. However, this war had little to do with the army. Moreover, the status of the army has been declining over the years. Navy Chief of Staff Traces was very influential, but the Navy's performance was too bad. It severely hit his prestige. The Air Force's performance was not bad, and it did not embarrass Argentina, but Air Force Chief of Staff Alfonso was the youngest and had a deep background, which might not convince the army and the navy soldiers.

As President of Argentina, Theron could not have been unaware of the problems in the army.

After pondering for a while, Theron turned his eyes to Pei Chengyi and said, "The general is right. Our army really needs a military commander who can bring victory, and there is a best candidate in front of me.

Pei Chengyi hesitated for a moment, but still didn't speak.

Although according to the fine traditions of the Chinese nation, Pei Chengyi should be humble at this time. However, Argentina is not a republic. According to Western customs, being too humble is hypocritical. Besides, Theron has no other choice, otherwise he would not mention Pei Chengyi in a blunt way.

"I will meet as soon as possible in the Ai Pai Joint Conference, establish a joint headquarters, and appoint General Pei as the supreme commander."

"Your Excellency," Pei Chengyi still couldn't help it. However, he did not give in. "Isn't this arrangement too sudden?"

"If you don't click suddenly, you won't get any effect." Theron smiled reluctantly and said, "Of course. The general should know the situation of our army. Although I am the supreme commander, the struggle within the army is very fierce and complicated. Even with my full support, General Pei still has to use a pound of direct actions to win the recognition of our soldiers and the support of our soldiers."

Pei Chengyi nodded slightly and said, "I understand what you mean, I will prepare quickly."

"If you have any requirements for promotion, you can propose it and I will try my best to solve it."

"It's hard to say now. After all, I need some time. Of course, the most important thing is intelligence." Pei Chengyi paused for a moment and said, "You don't need to worry about the British army's intelligence. I will ask the Military Intelligence Bureau for it. What I need is only the posture of your army, especially the posture of your country's navy and air force.

"No problem, once you are ready, I will send the secretary to your residence."

"There is a worker who is reluctant to ask me to keep it a secret.

"Keep confidential?" Theron frowned.

"After all, I am still your country's military adviser. I have no right to interfere in your country's military operations. You also said at the beginning that only a sudden attack can achieve results."

Theron was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

“If nothing else, I will say goodbye.

Pei Chengyi stood up and said, "If it is not unexpected, within a few days, I will give Your Excellency a satisfactory reply. I also believe that in a few days, the final victory will be within reach for your country."

"General Pei, Argentina's hope is entrusted to you."

Although she was infected by Pei Chengyi and was very excited to see Hope Xiaojie Theron again, Pei Chengyi did not continue to talk to the Argentine president. Then she said goodbye and left.

Confidence is important, but confidence cannot become complacency.

When making a guarantee, Pei Chengyi was not absolutely sure. It was just in front of Theron. Pei Chengyi could not hesitate at all, otherwise the already shaken Argentine president would give up his efforts. There is no doubt that whether it was based on Pei Chengyi's personal interests or the national interests of the Republic, Argentina could not go back at this time, let alone give up. Although Pei Chengyi would not admit it in front of Theron, it is undeniable that the final outcome of the Cabernet War will definitely affect the entire world.

Pei Chengyi finally breathed a sigh of relief when he walked out of the villa and got into the car.

Before he could relax, Pei Chengyi saw the figure sitting in the shadow opposite and suddenly became nervous.

"It seems that if you don't go to the battlefield for a long time, it will indeed make people relax." The man sat upright and exposed his face to the lights shot out of the car window.

"You" Pei Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Liu Xiaobin and said, "Old Liu, how did you know I'm here?"

"Of course it was Dongfang Wen told me." Liu Xiaobin smiled and shrank into the shadow again. "If I guessed correctly, your problem with Theron has been solved."

"Can you guessed something wrong?" Pei Chengyi smiled bitterly inwardly.

“How much guarantee has Theron made for you?

"There is no guarantee, he has no other choice anyway." Pei Chengyi smiled and told Liu Xiaobin what he had talked to Theron.

"As close to what we expected, Theron finally gave in."

"There is nothing to be happy about. There is a mess in front of us that is difficult to clean up." Pei Chengyi frowned slightly and said, "When did you come back?"

"Let's talk about it later." Liu Xiaobin knocked on the window connecting the cockpit and asked the driver to drive faster.
