Chapter 254 Kicked to the Iron Plate
Just when the two groups were about to engage in a gunfight, an arrogant general from Country M quickly came over, followed by a large group of military police from Country M and the Chongqing government.
"What's going on, Captain Tom? Is it so difficult to catch two arms dealers? Maybe we should send you to Burma!"
Captain Tom was stunned. He didn't expect that he would be sent to Burma for a mission?
"General Dussel, please give me another minute!"
At this time, Chennault and a group of Chinese pilots, who had just finished checking the C-54 transport plane, also discovered that something was wrong and prepared to rush over here.
But he was stopped by Chennault.
"Get ready for takeoff. If you can't do it, force takeoff! You can't abandon the plane in Kunming if you're not hungry!"
After Chennault finished speaking, he strode towards Wang Meng.
"General Dussel, long time no see?"
"Oh? Isn't this General Chennault of the famous Flying Tigers? What brings you back to Kunming?"
Chennault paid no attention to Dussel's sarcasm. After all, the two of them did not get along.
"General Dussel, I want to ask what happened here? How did the military police get alerted?"
Dussel waved his hand, and the military police behind him split into two teams. One team surrounded the plane that was about to be delivered, and the other team surrounded Wang Meng, Chennault and the guards in the middle.
"General Chennault, we are arresting deserters and arms dealers!"
"Deserter? Where did the deserter come from?"
Dussel's index finger circled in the air and then poked Chennault in the chest.
"All members of the Flying Tigers, including you, General Chennault, are deserters from the 23rd Flying Squadron!"
Chennault sneered.
"General Dussel, did you go out this morning and not eat the hot dogs your mother made for you? Did you have low blood sugar and faint? I am not even a military member of the Flying Tigers, so how can I be considered a deserter?"
The arrogant Dussel's face turned ugly. He actually forgot about this.
These Flying Tigers members gave up their military ranks in the M country army and came to China as volunteers, without any military ranks at all.
"No! They have no military rank, but you, Chennault, are a brigadier general in the army! Hahahaha!"
A smile of success spread across Dussel's face; he had finally scored a goal.
Chennault was somewhat surprised. He was allowed to succeed just like that? That was too much of an underestimation of his many years in China!
"General Dussel, I don't think you have any friends in the Ministry of Defense of Country M. Just a month ago, I formally submitted my resignation to the Ministry of Defense, and it has been accepted?"
The expression on Dussel's face began to freeze, and his rampant laughter stopped abruptly.
"Impossible! How could they agree? Captain Tom, contact the headquarters immediately!"
"Go check it out, check it out carefully!"
Wang Meng, who was watching the fun, also showed a smug smile. After all, he was the one who took care of this matter and it cost Nicholas a full 50,000 US dollars.
Less than half an hour later, Captain Tom came back panting and whispered something awkwardly in Dussel's ear.
After a while, the "petrified" Dussel began to revive.
"General Chennault, it seems I underestimated you. I didn't expect that your connections could reach the Ministry of National Defense?"
Chennault spread his hands. He didn't want to get entangled with Dussel anymore.
"Can we leave now, General Dussel?"
"Leave? Dream on! Although you are not deserters, you are involved in arms trafficking. I have the right to bring you to court! Arrest you!"
The military police immediately stepped forward, and a battle with the guard company was about to break out.
At this time, William, with a pale face, pushed aside the gendarmes, walked up to Dussel, and took out his ID.
"General Dussel, I'm William from the Ministry of Defense. There's a misunderstanding in this matter. Please ask them to leave first. I will explain it to you personally!"
Dussel handed William's ID to Captain Tom again.
Captain Tom had just caught his breath when he didn't expect to have to run again.
"Mr. William, we will check your ID immediately. Perhaps you can explain it to me now?"
"General Dussel, this matter is too confidential. Maybe it's not appropriate to discuss it here! Let them leave first."
Dussel didn't buy it. He found it hard to accept that a major general would be humiliated in the lowly China.
"Let's talk here. I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong!"
Dussel acted like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, which clearly showed that he was not giving face.
"Okay, you will be court-martialed for your recklessness! Everything here was ordered by Minister Louis, including these dozens of American aircraft!"
"What? Why did you hand over the planes to the local armed forces of China? Don't tell me it's military aid!"
Dussel knew that Country M did provide military assistance to Chongqing, but that was impossible for it to provide assistance to the unknown local armed forces in the Northwest.
"It's not military aid, it's a deal! We provide the planes, and they provide the supplies we need!"
The worry and a hint of timidity on Dussel's face completely disappeared.
"What? What are you talking about? China has the supplies we need? Is it porcelain and Chinese Kung Fu?"
Indeed, it is difficult for outsiders to accept the reality that backward China can provide military supplies to Country M, especially the arrogant Dussel.
Of course, the M country military did not tell outsiders about importing penicillin from China.
First, it was for face. After all, at this time, the United States had gradually become the big brother. In one sentence, "I don't want face anymore?"
Secondly, penicillin was not used entirely on soldiers on the front line, but mostly by senior military officials and politicians.
Therefore, this matter has always been top secret.
"General Dussel, maybe it's better for you not to know about this matter, or you can verify it with the Chief of Staff yourself!"
"Mystifying and playing tricks!"
Captain Tom ran back again. He had confirmed that this William was the secretary of Defense Minister Louis.
But Dussel, who didn't believe in evil, thought that this transaction was just William reselling supplies under the banner of Louis.
"Captain Tom, contact the Chief of Staff for me. I want to verify it myself!"
Captain Tom began to take a step mechanically, but then stayed where he was.
"General Dussel, are you talking about the Chief of Staff of the Ministry of Defense? Perhaps I can't contact him smoothly!"
Dussel then turned his eyes away from William and walked out of the airport reluctantly.
After a lot of effort, I finally contacted the Chief of General Staff, but I only got a cold sentence:
"It's true! Please cooperate with us fully!"
Dussel was sweating profusely, because this time he kicked not a wall, but an iron plate.
