Three days later, in the meeting room of the Nanjing garrison headquarters.

Commander Asaka sat there with a worried look on his face, and the murderous intent in his eyes was not concealed at all.

"This is the intelligence you found. Is Zhang Tianhao's development so exaggerated?"

"I'm sorry, Commander. What we found is basically correct. Although we didn't find any core secrets, judging from the entire northern Jiangsu region, almost everyone in the region is a soldier."

The director of the Intelligence Department also wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. After all, the previous director of the Intelligence Department had died at the hands of Commander Asaka three days ago.

Now he has sent out all the so-called elite troops, but now he has received such terrible news.

Throughout the northern Jiangsu region, every village has a militia. Regardless of gender, age or status, all must train in their spare time. Moreover, the militia in each village are all trained by injured veterans.

The entire northern Jiangsu has a population of at least 13 million, which is a very exaggerated number.

You have to know how small the entire northern Jiangsu is. After such a long period of war, most of the population in northern Jiangsu are young and middle-aged people, most of whom have fled from all directions.

Basically, the ratio of the number of troops is 65:1. This is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that every village and town in northern Jiangsu is training militia, and almost all of them are soldiers.

There is only one possibility for this situation, that is, if there is a shortage of troops on the front line, militiamen from all over the country can be directly deployed to supplement the army.

Now the number of militiamen in northern Jiangsu is so huge that even Commander Asaka is a little scared.

The population is over 13 million, more than one and a half times that of northern Jiangsu in the previous life.

Moreover, the population of northern Jiangsu is not only these, but also increasing.

People from all over the country were also being taken to the northern Jiangsu region by the northern Jiangsu army. Even Zhang Tianhao did not expect such an exaggerated speed.

"Commander, the number of regular troops in northern Jiangsu is about 200,000, and each county also has a garrison regiment, about 20,000 to 30,000, which is about 230,000."

"As for the militias in each village, there are men, women, young and old, including nearly 10 million young and middle-aged men and women. Although there are not many guns in each village, at least one village has two or three guns."

Having said this, the director of the Intelligence Department wiped the cold sweat from his forehead once again. The more he spoke, the lower his voice became, and the more panicked he became.

You wouldn't know until you investigate. Once you investigate, you find that the entire northern Jiangsu is almost a war machine. Once it is fully operational, the impact will be enormous.

It would be almost easy to take over Jiangsu.

"If all the troops in northern Jiangsu are mobilized, we can instantly mobilize more than eight million troops, and all of them are trained troops. If we really push them to the limit, ten million is not impossible."

Although there are female soldiers among them, they are also soldiers, and this is no joke.

"In addition, the Subei region has a complete intelligence system, a complete command system, a complete production system, and a strong public support. The most terrifying thing is its cohesion."

The entire northern Jiangsu has a population of just over 13 million, and the number of elderly people and children is less than three million, which is a pretty scary number.

As the Intelligence Department finished speaking, everyone in the conference room was so shocked that they held their breath and almost stared with their eyes wide open.

No one could have imagined that Northern Jiangsu would develop to this point right under their noses.

"Anything else? Tell me at once."

"Plane, artillery, tanks and the like. The Subei Army may not have as much as they say, but I think it will be no less than half. Even if we mobilize the imperial armies in Central, South, and North China, we may not be able to suppress them all."

"According to our analysis, the maximum number of troops we can mobilize now is 200,000, and our equipment is comparable to that of the Subei Group Army."

"In addition, the Subei Army has its own arsenal. In addition to our Type 38 rifles, the regular army also has their own homemade weapons. The power of these homemade weapons is even stronger than that of the Empire's weapons, and they are more accurate."

"Baga, damn it, how could Zhang Tianhao have such a weapon? Damn it!"

"Mr. Intelligence Officer, if you have any bad news, please tell me everything!" "Hi!"

The intelligence officer immediately responded upon hearing this and said loudly, "That is to say, if we fight Su Bei now, our only advantage is that we have more resources than them, but our troops may not be as strong as theirs."

"Baga, the warriors of the empire are omnipotent. How could they not be able to defeat the Subei Army?"

Suddenly, a Japanese officer who had just been transferred to the army started shouting loudly.

However, others looked at him as if he was an idiot. After all, they had fought with the Subei Army many times, but they still failed.

As he finished speaking, the entire conference room fell silent, with all eyes turning to him.

It took him more than ten seconds to react.

"Why, did I say something wrong?"

"No, but the Subei Army Group is not like that. We can't defeat them with the same number of troops as us. This has happened several times. We organized troops to attack the Subei Army Group several times, but all failed."

"We have 400,000 troops, more than half of which are the Imperial Army, while the enemy only has a few hundred thousand. But we have failed, and not just once. Now the Subei Army is even more powerful. How much hope do you think we have of winning?"

An officer on the side gave him some direct instructions, and then he shook his head helplessly.

The officer was stunned for a moment. After all, this situation was too exaggerated.

"Why do you think our Nanjing garrison didn't attack the Subei Army? If we had the chance, we would have attacked long ago, but we kept losing troops and generals. Otherwise, we wouldn't have delayed it."

"We have negotiated with the commander of the garrison in North China. We have no ability to attack at the moment, so we will focus on appeasement."

"Appeasement is the priority. Isn't this a disgrace to the empire?"

"It's better to lose face than to lose your life!"

"Also, we have discussed it. From now on, we will completely blockade the Subei Army Group and not send any supplies to them!"

"What are their conditions?"

"We are also negotiating. They asked us to cede six cities, including Yangzhou, Taizhou, Nantong, Xuzhou, and two cities in Anhui."

"Baga, is Zhang Tianhao crazy about the territory? If that's the case, how can we agree to it? It's a slap in the face of the empire. Why don't we ask the headquarters for help?"

"Baga, the headquarters sent four passing divisions, and two of them were directly wiped out. The divisions on the front line were directly beaten so that only one division was left."

"We lost half of our two Nanjing garrison divisions, and the garrison battalions in various places also suffered heavy losses. We are no longer able to organize to defend the counties. Tell me, what should we do now? Do we still have the face to ask for help from the headquarters?"

"Nantong, Yangzhou, and Taizhou cannot be given to the other party. Xuzhou is our important transportation hub, so it is even more impossible to give it to the other party. We can only give the territory of two cities in Anhui. I believe he will not ask for too much."

"Our bottom line is three cities!"

"We must calm them down this time, no problems can arise!"

Commander Asaka also spoke loudly with a serious expression.

"Hi!"

"Everyone dismissed, the intelligence officer stays."

"Hi!" (End of Chapter)
