At this time, in the Sakura State Banquet Hall,
Magnificent,
Bright lights!
In the performance area on the first floor, musicians are playing beautiful saxophones.
And everyone was drinking champagne,
Chatting happily.
It's a peaceful and beautiful scene!
…
At this time, General MacArthur
Standing on the stage of the banquet hall,
He was still smoking his corncob pipe leisurely.
Just like the emperor,
Accepting the flattery from the crowd!
The host in the audience was praising General MacArthur's foresight!
And MacArthur naturally accepted everyone's worship.
For him,
These are the courtesies he deserves!
Because MacArthur has been very good to himself in recent years.
This series of policies implemented in the Sakura Country,
It can be said to be quite satisfactory.
…
But at this moment,
Major General Smith has called.
Although Smith on the other end was already furious,
I cursed MacArthur a hundred times in my heart,
But on the phone,
He could only suppress his anger.
Said respectfully:
"Report to the General!"
"We are now at the Hagaru-ri Airport and are under fierce attack by the Chinese Volunteer Army!"
"Our defense line is about to collapse!"
"Based on our current military strength,"
"We can't resist the enemy's attack at all!"
"Therefore, I request the general to send reinforcements immediately to support our retreat!"
…
At this time, everyone in the banquet hall was clapping and waiting for General MacArthur's speech.
But after listening to Major General Smith's report, MacArthur suddenly became angry!
He yelled at Smith on the other end of the phone:
“Smith!”
"I'm warning you!"
"Any retreat is prohibited!"
"Retreat is treason!"
"This is an order!"
"Do you understand?"
…
Smith on the other end of the phone was about to explode with anger!
You're betraying your country!
All retreat is also prohibited.
When you retreated from Southeast Asia,
He just left a sentence "I will definitely come back!" and ran away happily!
Now you're telling me retreat is treason?!
Aren't you fucking funny?!
Although I thought so in my heart,
But I dare not say so.
After all, the higher the rank, the more powerful the official.
How could he not understand!
so,
Smith tried to control his anger.
He said to MacArthur in a gentle tone:
"General, we are not retreating..."
"It's just... just changing the direction of attack..."
Smith also risked his life!
After all, at this time,
Saving your life is important!
face?
How much is face worth?
Even he himself didn't believe this excuse.
But it’s okay as long as it’s useful!
Unexpectedly, General MacArthur did not buy it at all.
He almost roared at Smith on the other end of the phone:
"Attack in a different direction?!"
"Major General Smith, do you think I'm a fool?"
"What a bullshit excuse!!"
"Listen to me, stop all retreat activities immediately!!!"
“No retreat!!!”
"This is an order!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone with a loud "click"!!!
At this time, everyone in the audience waiting for MacArthur to speak was confused.
Someone murmured quietly:
"He doesn't know we can hear him, does he?"
…
So everyone clapped their hands,
Listening to the scene of MacArthur roaring at the other end of the phone!
It's so embarrassing that it makes people want to pick their toes!
After hanging up the phone, Smith was so angry that his teeth were grinding!
He kept pacing back and forth in the small command room!
Think about it over and over again!
A moment later,
Smith calmed down!
Fuck MacArthur!
At this time,
Saving your life is important!
If we don't retreat now,
What you lose is your own life!
And if he resists his boss's decision,
Later it was proved that he was right.
Then maybe I could become the one who saved the US ace division.
A hero who saved the face of the US military!
Never mind!
Take a gamble!
then,
Smith once again demonstrated his courage to "resist the wrong decision of his superiors."
Decided to take a gamble!
indeed,
This was no longer a case of Smith rebelling against his boss's decision.
In this Battle of Changjiang Lake,
Smith always felt that MacArthur's decision to act rashly was inappropriate.
At that time, MacArthur felt that
The Chinese Volunteer Army has limited strength, and even if they encounter
They will also face the massacre of heavy firepower from the United States!
So at that time, the American soldiers were ordered to attack on all fronts again!
But Smith, who has always been cautious, always felt that
In the overlapping mountains of Changj Lake,
A large number of Chinese volunteer soldiers are lying in ambush.
If you go deep into the enemy's territory alone, you are likely to encounter a catastrophic disaster.
So all along the way, he was actually "slacking off".
The march was deliberately slowed down.
