After the defeat, Admiral Mai was filled with grief and anger. The most annoying thing was that he was still not sure who the enemy was. Was it the defeated Northern Army? Or was it the elusive Chinese Army?

Thinking that the liaison officer, this young major was at the front line and should be able to provide the most authentic information, he kept Qiao Youzhi at all costs.

When Qiao Youzhi returned to the headquarters, Admiral Mac was in a meeting, requesting approval from the US military top brass to bomb the Yalu River Bridge.

Of course, the top US military officials disagreed. The Yalu River Bridge was a border bridge, half of which belonged to China. Bombing it would be tantamount to declaring war on China.

The bombing of China's Andong region some time ago has already made the United States lose face. In order to appease China's emotions, it had to make a gesture of compensation.

Now that Admiral Mai has suffered a defeat, he wants to bomb the Yalu River Bridge. This is to vent his anger, like a child who has lost a fight and uses a brick to smash someone's window glass, without considering the consequences at all.

What the US military leaders wanted to know most was whether China would intervene and how many troops would be sent. Admiral Mac was furious. Would they not fight if China intervened?

The cautious attitude of the US generals made Admiral Mac roar angrily: "If I had known you were such cowards, I should not have let you graduate from Hilary Point in the first place."

The US generals were also furious, thinking that Admiral Mac had gone crazy, that the syphilis virus in his brain had been revived, and that his nerves had been controlled by the virus. It was no secret among the top US military brass that Admiral Mac had syphilis.

Admiral Mac accused China of sending troops to wage war without declaration and in violation of international law, and demanded a strong counterattack against China.

The top US military officials have not yet decided whether to go to war with China and have asked Admiral Mac to act with caution.

The meeting ended in acrimony.

Admiral Mai walked out of the telex conference room with a gloomy face. Seeing Qiao Youzhi standing there, he waved his hand as a greeting.

An attendant came up and said, "The general has another meeting to meet with the British."

Brigadier General Daven, the representative of Britain, asked Admiral Mac to suspend the bombing of Yalujiang to avoid further provoking China.

Admiral Mai mocked Brigadier General Daven, asking if he was frightened by the Chinese.

Brigadier General Daven didn't understand what it meant for a moment.

Admiral Mai knocked on the table and said, "After Amethyst was attacked by the Chinese army on the Yangtze River, the backbone of you British people was broken. Where is the courage that your empire had in the past to set up a cannon and bombard any country it wanted?"

Brigadier General Daven's face turned pale. "General, I remind you that your words have no effect on our position."

"You don't want to anger China, and you don't want to go to war with China, but have you ever thought about this? You are already at war with them. Is your 27th Brigade here for tourism?"

Brigadier General Daven said calmly: "General, we are not at war with China. We are just carrying out the resolutions and orders of the United Nations."

Admiral Mai slammed the table and said something that was not in line with his status: "Sly fox!"

Brigadier General Daven was stunned. Is this what a five-star admiral would say? The two sides parted unhappily.

After he left, Intelligence Chief Robbie was called over.

"Dear Robbie, how much intelligence have you gathered? Can you give me accurate information?"

Admiral Mai seemed a little tired, and his voice was weak.

Major General Robbie is an incurable optimist. He knows what Admiral Mai likes to hear. Otherwise, he would not be the head of the Intelligence Department, let alone the shoulder straps of a major general. "General, we cannot deny the fact that China has dispatched troops. I still insist on our opinion. The troops sent are very small. They are just some volunteers who sympathize with some soldiers on the peninsula."

Admiral Mai looked at him and motioned for him to continue.

"Our air force has conducted reconnaissance and found that they are retreating northward. They clearly have the upper hand in Yuncheng and on the eastern front, so why don't they pursue us? It's obvious that they don't have enough troops. I think the purpose of the Chinese army's dispatch is not to defeat us, but to help the Northern Army retreat. Our intelligence personnel in the Soviet Union also sent us intelligence, saying that Si Dalin wanted the Northern Army to establish a government in exile in China."

"That makes sense, Robbie. You are becoming more and more like an excellent intelligence chief." Admiral Mai smiled, then his eyes flashed with two sinister rays of light. He picked up the phone and called the Far East Air Force Operations Command: "Listen carefully. I order you to bomb the Yalu River Bridge immediately."

Lieutenant General Mai Ye, commander of the Far East Air Force, knew that the US military had issued an order prohibiting the bombing of Yalujiang, so he asked cautiously, "Does the Joint Chiefs of Staff know about this?"

"Lieutenant General Mai, you should know that you are the commander of the Far East Air Force. Do I need to remind you? You should obey the orders of the commander-in-chief of the US garrison in the Far East. Do you still need to confirm who is the commander-in-chief of the Far East garrison?"

"General, no need, I know you are my superior."

"Do you need me to repeat the order?"

"No need, General. I will give the order for the bomber fleet to take off immediately."

More than a thousand bombers took off from airports across the Far East and flew towards the border.

In the conference room, Major General Robbie asked carefully: "General, George is here, do you still want to see him?"

Admiral Mai knocked his head and said, "I almost forgot. Go and invite him in."

Robbie suspected that he had heard it wrong. The five-star general actually said "please" to a major.

Qiao Youzhi walked in and gave a standard military salute: "General."

"My dear George, look at me, I have a lot to do, but I haven't forgotten you, and I need you very much." Admiral Mac smiled.

Robbie very consciously left the meeting room.

"George, I called you back. You can't go back to the United States. This is a huge loss for you, your fame, and those stars. You won't blame me, will you?"

"General, I heard that you were born to listen to the sound of a military bugle. You were born to be a soldier. You have spent most of your life on the battlefield. I have always been proud to be your subordinate." Qiao Youzhi flattered him generously.

Admiral Mai narrowed his eyes and picked up the corn cob again: "George, we are all pure soldiers. I asked you to tell me who the enemy you met on the front line was?"

"I'm Chinese." Qiao Youzhi answered seriously.

"Are you sure?"

"General, I can tell you 100% that they are indeed Chinese, and their tactics are all Chinese."

"Are there many of them? What is their purpose?"

"There may not be many people, so they took advantage and then withdrew."

Admiral Mai held his chin and thought for a while: "George, I want to assign you a mission, can you accept it?"

"General, please give the order."

"I would like to ask you to take a troop to the front line to scout and see if the Chinese have already withdrawn."

"General, I like this kind of challenging mission." Qiao Youzhi agreed without any hesitation.

Admiral Mai held his hand and said, "I heard good news from you. If this war goes well, I will ask those American female stars to come to Dongjing, and they will all be yours."

Two days later, George set out with an elite American reconnaissance team.

The main force was the reconnaissance team under the army group and the people from the 1st Cavalry Division. What surprised Qiao Youzhi most was that Pastor Ivan was also there.

"Pastor, this time we are going to conduct reconnaissance in the enemy's territory. Can we see God at any time?" Qiao Youzhi patted Ivan's arm and joked.

"With me here, we can discuss everything with God. George, I never thought that we would meet again." Ivan was very grateful to Qiao Youzhi for saving his life last time.
