    Stilwell could completely understand Tang Qiuli's angry mood at this time. The deputy head of state was invited to Manila to attend a military meeting. First, he was very angry in the air by the young men of the US Air Force in the Philippines. After landing,  , and was provoked by these American soldiers. If it was just a simple provocation, it would be okay to say_PAO&Êé&

    The key is, through the description of Major Johnson, the military police judge, Stilwell knows better than anyone else that these American soldiers who are making trouble covet the beauty of Mrs. Tang Qiuli. What happens next can be known even with a heel.  What's going on? This is a big trouble. No man will tolerate such a thing happening to his wife.

    What's more, it's Tang Qiuli. If it were in the West, this would be a standard diplomatic incident, involving not only a few American soldiers, but also the relationship between the two countries, a series of things that happened over and over again.  , all happened to Tang Qiuli. If he could not be filled with anger, it could even be said that he believed that this series of events from the air to the streets of Manila were tacitly approved or connived by General MacArthur.

    The wife of a deputy head of state, as a specially invited guest, was coveted by American soldiers within the sphere of influence of the United States, and then adopted such a method. It happened that this person was Tang Qiuli of China, Stilwell's  Severe pain arose in his head. He felt that in response to General MacArthur's indifference and arrogance towards Tang Qiuli, this Chinese who was as tough as a stone began to fight back.

    Just before the scene of the training incident, Stilwell reported the situation to MacArthur truthfully. Stilwell's meaning was very obvious. Things have reached this level. If you don't come forward, you may not be able to do well. Those who followed Tang Qiuli to Manila  , only thirty people, but behind him are nearly one million well-equipped and well-trained troops.

    Moreover, this army is what we, the United States, want to use. Boss MacArthur, please come forward and remove all these unpleasantnesses. You cannot lose a few pieces of meat and cannot damage your prestige. But MacArthur pondered for a long time and said to Steve  Wei said: "I still stick to the original approach and will not meet with Tang Qiuli before the meeting officially begins."

    "Stilwell, think about it carefully. If Tang Qiuli had no reason to seek our help, why did he travel thousands of miles to break through the Japanese aerial ambush and come to Manila? This is the crux of the problem. Today, if I come forward and do nothing but apologize,  , there is no good solution for me to apologize to this arrogant Chinese, it is impossible for me to bow my head in front of him."

    After a few words, Stilwell choked and blinked his eyes. Probably, MacArthur also felt that his words were a bit smelly, so he softened his tone and then said: "Dear Stilwell, I will leave this matter to you.  I believe in your wisdom. One thing, let those reporters go away and don¡¯t let the Japanese interpret other information. Tomorrow, General Alexander from the UK and General Brooks from Australia will arrive in Manila. Make arrangements and I will go there in person.  Airport greeting¡±

    Stilwell was so angry that he almost went crazy, "Old bastard, such a difficult matter is all put on my head. What does Tang Qiuli ask us Americans? It's just your arrogant guess. If I hadn't humbly told him  An invitation letter has been sent, and it is still unclear whether Tang Qiuli can come to Manila. If Alexander and Brooks come, you will greet them in person. Isn't it obvious that you don't value Tang Qiuli? With Tang Qiuli's character, how can you just give up?  ?¡±

    "Oh my God, how could there be such a boss?" Stilwell was so angry that stars were popping up in his eyes. But the interests of the United States were at stake, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and come to see Tang Qiuli. Stilwell didn't have too many questions.  Luxury, as long as Tang Qiuli does not dwell on this incident, he will be satisfied. As for the death of four American soldiers, it is his own fault. If it were him, maybe none of these troublemaking soldiers would survive.

    He apologized when he opened his mouth, but Tang Qiuli didn't buy it and insisted that MacArthur come here to give him an explanation. Stilwell was choked by Tang Qiuli's firm attitude and his face turned red. He changed his angle and said: "  Dear Vice Chairman Tang, I am really sorry that the lax discipline of the troops has offended you and your beautiful wife. On behalf of General MacArthur, I sincerely apologize to you. Please leave here and I will accompany you back to the hotel.  , I will leave the rest to my subordinates, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

    "Also, General MacArthur has a bad cold and is in poor health. He cannot come in person. The general entrusted me on the phone to express his personal apology." When he said this, Stilwell cursed in his heart, "It's best  That arrogant old guy has an incurable disease, so he doesn't have to be caught in the middle and be in a dilemma."

    Tang Qiuli also saw it. When Stilwell said the following words, the eyes flickered. He also believed in his own judgment. With MacArthur's character and his consistent discrimination against the Chinese, he would never say such soft words.  , this old guy isAn absolute racist, it was difficult for Stilwell to be caught in the middle. For this American general who sincerely helped the Chinese and fought against Japan in history, Tang Qiuli could not push him too far.

    Moreover, in the real world, Stilwell left a very good impression on him. Tang Qiuli's warm smile, strangely enough, with Tang Qiuli's smile, the almost solid atmosphere in the store suddenly melted.  Suddenly, the feeling of imminent disaster that hung over the head of the military judge, Major Johnson, and seemed to be falling at any moment, disappeared, and even Stilwell felt relaxed.

    But Tang Qiuli's words below were by no means a message of goodwill like his smile, "General Stilwell, General MacArthur has fallen ill. Oh, this is really not good news. I wish him a speedy recovery and good health."  I have only one request to attend the military meeting on time. These American soldiers not only insulted me and my country, they also insulted my wife."

    After speaking, Tang Qiuli pointed with his finger at the more than 30 American soldiers lying on the ground, still groaning in pain, and then said: "They must be severely punished and pay the price." Both Stilwell and Johnson were greatly surprised.  He breathed a sigh of relief. This was a reasonable request. For simply offending a deputy head of state, it was normal to be expelled from the military, sent to a military labor camp, and imprisoned for several years.

    Stilwell nodded quickly and said: "Vice Chairman Tang, please rest assured. They have violated the regulations of the US military and have been severely punished. This is the fate they deserve. Major Johnson, do you hear this? Let your military police,  These guys who violate military discipline will be sent to the gendarmerie and punished according to regulations. Then, a report will be made and submitted to me."

    Johnson looked at the American soldiers on the ground with sympathetic eyes and said to himself, "Did he kick the iron plate this time? He is used to being domineering in Manila, and he deserves to be severely punished." Johnson is definitely not in a position to maintain military discipline.  Purpose, he just hates these soldiers, they are full of muscles and can't read their words. If the person he meets today is not Tang Qiuli, the person he wants to arrest will probably be the other party, and he will consider himself unlucky."

    Tang Qiuli then continued in a slow voice: "General Stilwell, I think you have misunderstood me. The price I said is not to be sent to the gendarmerie, but that they must die.  Die in front of my eyes. If your subordinates cannot bear to execute them, my subordinates will be very willing to do it for them. Also, this Filipino will accompany them on the road."

    Stilwell stared at Tang Qiuli with disbelief, looking at Tang Qiuli like a monster. This request was simply too much. A whole platoon of thirty-eight American soldiers, except for the four who had already gone to see God,  In addition, the remaining thirty-four people will all be shot, and they will be executed right here in front of Tang Qiuli.

    Throughout the history of the U.S. Army's expansion of overseas territory, there has never been anything like this. Shooting one's own soldiers in front of a foreigner was just to show apology. It was not only a blow to the U.S. Army, but also a blow to the United States.  Even if Stilwell was dissatisfied with MacArthur's actions and knew Tang Qiuli's strength and character, he would never do such a thing. It would destroy the military power.

    What's more, you, Tang Qiuli, have already killed four soldiers, and you still make such rude, excessive, and unreasonable demands. You are really a madman. Besides, these soldiers didn't do anything to your wife, Stilwell.  His face turned livid and his tone became tough.

    "General Tang, your request is too much. We Americans will never agree to it. We are a country ruled by law. Everything must be done in accordance with the law. The U.S. Army is no exception. We in the United States do not have the death penalty. Finally,  There is nothing more severe than life imprisonment. I hope you can take back what you just said, give up your unrealistic demands, and proceed from the overall harmony and unity within the Allied Forces. This matter will be handled in accordance with the disciplines of our U.S. Army."

    Tang Qiuli was still so tepid, as if he was surprised by Stilwell's anger, and then said: "General Stilwell, you can think that my request is unrealistic, but as far as a man is concerned, his wife has been  Some people chased and teased, and pressed repeatedly. If we didn't have the ability to protect ourselves, or if it were someone else, my wife's experience today would be very tragic. Therefore, my request is a normal request of a man, and it is China  Men's revenge methods have nothing to do with the country."

    The black lines on Stilwell's face almost spread to his neck. It's really absurd logic. If you weren't Tang Qiuli, who has a lot of troops, would I be so polite to you?  Every year, how many women are raped by US soldiers?  I didn¡¯t see that man demanding the execution of these American soldiers. Only you, Tang Qiuli, made such a ridiculous request and felt it was justified.

    Damn it, Stilwell almost yelled, Johnson and the military police also changed their expressions. The relaxed atmosphere just now disappeared and became tense again.
