Fengxian Jiangshan

The strategy mentioned by Jiang Baili is exactly in line with Zhang Tinglan's judgment. There must be a life-and-death battle between China and Japan. In the end, it will be decided who is the master of East Asia. At this time, neither side is ready. It is best to fight a limited war. , Drive the Japanese out of South Manchuria.

Zhang Tinglan finalized the war strategy, and then said to the people present: "We will respond resolutely to the actions that the Japanese may take."

When it was time to divide the troops and send generals, all the generals present straightened their backs, and Zhang Tinglan first set his sights on Sun Anhu.

"The First Division and the Sixth Division form the Fengtian First Army. The commander of the army is Sun Anhu. Your task is to enter Liaoyang as soon as possible, cut off the inevitable road for the Fengtian Japanese army, and at the same time deploy defenses in Gaizhou and Yingkou to block the Japanese army. Human attacks. You have a heavy burden on your shoulders, and you may also face Japanese naval gun attacks, so you must be mentally prepared.”

"Don't worry, Commander, the soldiers of the First Army are all capable of fighting tough battles. No matter how many devils come, but how difficult it is, we can overcome it." The performance of the First Division in the Far East made no one doubt them Ability.

Zhang Tinglan nodded in satisfaction, and then turned his attention to Jiang Dengxuan: "The Second Division, the Independent Cavalry Brigade, and the Heavy Artillery Brigade form the Korean Front Army. Your task is to ensure the safety of Dandong and prevent the Japanese troops stationed in North Korea from entering Fengtian."

"Full mission guaranteed."

"Wan Fulin, you lead the Fifth Division to guard Shanhaiguan to prevent the Japanese troops stationed in North China from going north."

"Marshal, I think we can get in touch with Beiyang and let them dispatch troops to contact the Japanese armed forces in North China. They have an army of 10,000+ to deal with a little Japanese. There should be no problem. Our main force will all deal with the Japanese."

Zhang Tinglan waved his hand: "Don't be afraid of godly opponents, but pig teammates. If Beiyang is neutral, at least the Japanese will not attack their territory. The war is going on between us. Once Beiyang is involved, I don't know how many people will send The army protects them."

Hearing what Zhang Tinglan said was interesting, everyone present also laughed for a rare time. Beiyang is indeed a pig teammate with many factions.The equipment is outdated and the organization is lax. In order to help them, it may cost more, so it is worth noting.Wan Fulin was also ordered to guard Shanhaiguan.

Zhang Tinglan called Li Jinglin again, and his task was very simple.It is to solve Fengtian's Japanese garrison as soon as the war starts.As for the direction of Tumen, which Zhang Tinglan was more worried about, Qin Wei was in charge. He led the seventh division and No.11 division to be responsible for the direction of Tumen River.

As for the general reserve team, it fell on top of Zhang Tingshu's armored division. After a period of intense refitting, Fengjun has formed an armored division.With more than 200 tanks, his strength has been unprecedentedly strengthened, and Zhang Tingshu is also gearing up and eager to try.

Hearing that Zhang Tinglan put him in the reserve team.Immediately, Zhang Tingshu's face collapsed.

"Marshal, our armored force is an iron fist. If we want to rush to the front line, how can we hide behind and be a reserve team?"

Zhang Tinglan waved his hand: "Don't argue, the armored troops will not be deployed for the time being, just because of their powerful power, the Japanese currently have not many troops stationed in the Northeast, your mission is to wait until the Japanese attack aggressively, and give them a head-on blow." , let them know how powerful the steel torrent is."

Jiang Fangzhen also smiled and said: "The big actors are all singing the finale of the big show, don't worry, there must be a time to show their skills."

"Marshal, the arrangements are almost done, so what should our Air Force do?" Feng Yong also asked anxiously.

Zhang Tinglan suddenly laughed: "The air force has the heaviest burden. Besides submarines, we want to deal with Japanese warships. The air force is the biggest trump card. You have to cooperate with the navy to protect the coast between Shanhaiguan and Yingkou. Something went wrong."

As Zhang Tinglan said, he pulled Feng Yong again, turned to the opposite side of the sand table, pointed to the Yalu River with his finger, and then said with a smile: "There is a Yalu River Bridge between Sinuiju and Dandong, which is the throat of North Korea and the Northeast. Let's go to war." After that, the bombers must be concentrated to blow up the bridge to prevent the North Korean and Japanese troops from entering the Northeast.”

When Feng Yong heard it, he suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Commander, the Air Force will definitely complete the mission."

After Zhang Tinglan dispatched troops, everyone went to prepare, only Jiang Fangzhen and Yang Yuting remained in the meeting room.

"Zhuoyan, there will be a battle between China and Japan sooner or later. Whether it is an early fight or a late fight, I am confident that the victory will definitely belong to us!" Jiang Baili appraised and said: "China has been passed down for 5000 years, and it is more dangerous than this time." , It’s not like we’ve had it before, but we’ve all come through, and it’s the same this time! Thousands of words, as long as we persevere, the Japanese will surely lose.”

Hearing what Jiang Baili said, Zhang Tinglan was also very moved. Perhaps in another time and space, formally based on this judgment, Jiang Baili wrote the Theory of National Defense. With thousands of words, I only tell you one sentence, China has a solution!

"Brother Baili, the conditions in our hands are so good that we can produce almost everything by ourselves. There is no reason why we can't continue to fight. It is wishful thinking to want me to bow my head to Japan!"

Zhang Tinglan had already prepared for the worst, and the worst would happen.Just as Feng Jun was preparing for battle, Tokyo, Japan was also quarreling fiercely.

Due to the problem of fighting in the Far East, Prime Minister Yuan Jing succumbed to the pressure of the Fengjun and withdrew from the Far East, wasting huge military expenditures in vain, and watched the Far East fall into the control of the Fengjun.The Japanese regard this cup as the biggest diplomatic failure since the Meiji Restoration.

The radical mid-level and lower-level military officers didn't care about the difficult situation of the Japanese government. They put all the responsibility on Yuan Jing, calling Yuan Jing a national traitor.Of course, the military also intended to connive. They wanted to get rid of Yuan Jing, and then took the opportunity to expand their military strength. In this way, the prime minister became a scapegoat and was assassinated at the train station.

Hara Takashi was Japan's first civilian prime minister. His death also intensified the contradictions in the Japanese political arena.

Moreover, at this juncture, Japan's Supreme Emperor, Yuanlao Shanxian Youpeng also died, so there was a huge vacuum in the Japanese political arena, and the situation was very chaotic.

Therefore, after receiving the news that the King Kong and Kirishima were sunk, the Japanese government fell into a panic. Their first reaction was to strictly control public opinion, and then conduct closed-door consultations to come up with a set of action plans.

The new Prime Minister Takahashi Isaki presided over the cabinet meeting. The Minister of the Navy, Yusaburo Kato, and the Minister of the Army, Yoshiichi Tanaka, all tried their best to take the lead in the war, and demanded that the Japanese government immediately declare war on China, mobilize the power of the whole country, eliminate the Fengjun, and occupy the whole of China.

They also represent the attitude of the military, but there are different views in the cabinet. Takahashi is a representative. Since the Meiji Restoration, he has served as the president of the Bank of Japan and has served as the Minister of Finance many times, which is rare in Japan. financial experts.

Of course, he also advocates external expansion, but he is still very opposed to reckless behavior beyond Japan's national power, especially at this time, Japan has not yet recovered due to sending troops to the Far East, and the naval arms race with the United States and Britain has reached a critical moment.

After Japan built the Nagato, it devoted all its efforts to building the larger Kaga-class battleships and the Amagi-class battlecruisers, all of which were burning money.Moreover, due to the huge amount of money invested in the navy, the army's equipment has not been updated for a long time.

During the battle against Russia, the Feng army used a large number of heavy artillery, tanks and other weapons, and the Japanese army also wanted to produce them, but due to insufficient resources, it has been delayed.

Under such circumstances, it is very impractical to launch a full-scale war against China. Takahashi couldn't help but said: "The empire's finances are tight, and the big powers have just gone through a war, so they will definitely not support the empire's expansion of the war. I think declaring war is a little bit inappropriate.

"Ah?" Tanaka Yoshih immediately became furious. Shanxian Youpeng died, and he inherited the old man's huge political resources, and the weight of his words was very different from before.

"Prime Minister, do you think that the empire sank two main warships, so you still have to keep silent?"

"Of course not. I just oppose declaring war on China. Just like during the Nissin War, our opponent was Beiyang, but at this time our opponent is Fengjun. There is really no need to involve the whole of China."

While the two were arguing, Foreign Minister Uchida Yasuya suddenly said: "War does not have to be declared, we will take military action in the name of punishing Fengjun. If it goes well, we will declare war. If the international situation is unfavorable, we will fight." Limited to the territory of Manchuria."

Uchida's method sounds a bit whimsical, but it is still a way. Anyway, the Japanese are used to undeclared wars, the Sino-Japanese War, the Russo-Japanese War, and so on. There is no burden to do it again.

Soon the Japanese cabinet reached a consensus, and the war machine was also in operation.Foreign Minister Yasuya Uchida delivered a strongly worded speech, accusing Fengjun of despicable and shameless attack on Japanese warships, the Japanese Empire took military action, and decisively taught Fengjun a lesson.

Observers from all over the world are paying attention to the situation in the Far East. Japan has finally expressed its attitude. Although the war is inevitable, but fortunately there is no two most fatal words of declaring war, and there may be a chance of redemption.

The diplomats were doing the final mediation, and the army had already started the preparations for the war. At this time, a spark suddenly fell between China and Japan.

Han Shuo is a soldier who has recently joined the Feng army. The border guards he is in are in charge of patrolling along the Tumen River. He is walking down Zhanggu Peak with other soldiers. At this moment, he suddenly appears in the distance. A few Koreans with strange whereabouts have been caught, and they have entered the Chinese side.

"Who, stop!"

As soon as the two North Koreans were discovered, they turned around and ran away. Han Shuo suddenly pulled the trigger, and one of them fell to the ground with a big hole in his head, and blood was gurgling.

The other one wanted to escape, but at this time other soldiers also chased after him, and fired three shots in a row, and the North Korean also fell to the ground. (To be continued..)
