Years of the Republic of China 1913

After Dashanyan's death, the Japanese army and navy have been arguing about the military plan for more than ten days. Not to mention the dizzy Fujita Ichiro, even the chief of staff Yusaku Uehara can hardly stand it. ◎Smart kids remember the super fast update. ◎Uehara Yusaku, who wanted to continue the original plan with the army as the leader, got a bump in the nose in front of the arrogant navy. As time goes by, the pressure on the army is getting more and more Big, let’s not talk about other things, just the daily consumption of supplies by the assembled troops in Kanto Prefecture and North Korea is a huge astronomical figure, not to mention the lack of naval support, the logistics of the frontline troops cannot be guaranteed at all, if it is not for Kanto Prefecture and North Korea The governors of the two places are both from the army. If they help out, the soldiers on the front line will starve to death before the war begins.

Without Dashanyan's support, and now that the cabinet is changing, Yusaku Uehara, who is jumping up and down, is simply a clown in the eyes of the navy's senior officials.Yusaku Uehara, who is under increasing pressure, can't wait any longer. If they don't agree with the navy, their army will become the only joke in Japanese history that was defeated without a fight.

Yusaku Uehara, who was in a state of desperation, had no choice but to think of Ichiro Fujita's suggestion again. He was desperate and had no choice but to compromise with the Navy.After private bargaining, Yusaku Uehara made a concession to change the military plan and asked the navy to continue to support the army's operations.Under the premise that the army let go, the upper echelon of the navy jumped to celebrate this "great victory" and arrogantly proposed a new plan.In the new military plan, the navy clearly requires that their goals be the mainstay, from the original plan where the army is the main force to the navy, and the army is required to fully cooperate with the navy as a secondary role in its implementation.

Yusaku Uehara, who got the new plan, was so angry with the navy that his head was smoking.His teeth were itchy and furious, and his chest was filled with anger, wishing he could take out a knife and chop these bastards into two pieces one by one.But in the face of reality, Yusaku Uehara had to choose to swallow his breath, and patiently negotiated repeatedly with the upper echelons of the navy in order to save the army's face.

Although the navy has always looked down on the army like a bumpkin who can only walk on two legs, the upper echelons of the navy are not fools who can only be proud. Japan is an island country.The navy is of course the pillar, but the importance of the army is self-evident when fighting against traditional continental countries.Forcing the army to go too far, once Uehara bravely went all out and broke up, the navy would not get much benefit.After all, the war on land still has to be resolved by these bumpkin army.For this reason, after several discussions, the navy finally sold the army's face and agreed to slightly modify the plan and divide the whole plan into two parts. The goals are their own, and the navy continues to be responsible for the army's logistics, transportation and other work.At the same time, the army will draw out two divisions to be commanded by the navy.

This is the navy's final bottom line. Although Yusaku Uehara is very annoyed at the plan to transfer two divisions to the navy, he also understands that the navy will never back down at this step.After counting his fingers for a long time, Yusaku Uehara felt that he might not need as many troops as Da Shanyan had planned to deal with China, and he could still succeed even if he deployed two divisions.Yusaku Uehara, who had no way out, finally agreed to the navy's request.The plan was changed again.

As for who should be the liaison officer, Yusaku Uehara thought of Ichiro Fujita who gave him advice after a little consideration. He valued Ichiro Fujita, an intelligence officer who was different from ordinary army officers, and Ichiro Fujita was not only good at observing Guanse has a flexible mind and has intelligence work experience in China. Put such a person in the position of liaison officer.It is more appropriate than dispatching an ordinary staff officer.That's it, Uehara Isaac made a big stroke of his pen, promoted Fujita Ichiro to the first rank in the name of the Army Chief of Staff, and sent him to the Navy.

In the eyes of others, if such a good thing happened to him, he might faint with joy.And now Fujita Ichiro almost fainted, but he was not happy, but fainted from fright.

Fujita Ichiro has never had the consciousness of being an army officer, let alone the spirit of Bushido. His true nature is to enjoy life and fear death. As early as in China, he and Fang Zida worked hand in hand together to make false information He came here to fool his superiors, and in private, he did a lot of special business, reaping a lot of benefits for himself.After returning to Japan, relying on a shrewd mind to manage China's "political achievements" and money, he finally got a good job in the Army General Staff.Originally, Fujita Ichiro just wanted to enjoy life leisurely, and never thought of going to war.Who knew that Yusaku Uehara made a mistake. First, he let himself toss for so long, and now he is asked to go to the navy to serve as a liaison officer and directly participate in the war?

"Baga! Is it because I usually flatter too much? Have I been punished by God?" Fujita Ichiro wailed in his heart. He deeply regretted that he shouldn't please his boss too much. The Chinese were right. You have to be moderate in life, and playing smart can really kill people.

Regret is regrettable, but Uehara Yusaku's order Fujita Ichiro could not refuse, squeezed out a smile uglier than crying, Fujita Ichiro took over the appointment under the encouragement of Uehara Yusaku.When the news spread within the Army General Staff Headquarters, everyone looked at Ichiro Fujita with extreme envy and jealousy, and as the protagonist, Ichiro Fujita secretly complained in his heart, without showing a happy look at all, frowning Thinking hard about how to save my life in the war.The expression of Fujita Ichiro made some juniors sigh immediately, especially Captain Kikui Koji who admired him very much, and kept preaching in front of everyone that Fujita-kun is so honorable and disgraceful, that he is the real imperial warrior!

Yusaku Uehara pressed hard, and early the next morning, Ichiro Fujita boarded the cruiser Kanto Maru ahead of schedule and boarded the cruiser to Lushun.

Not long after boarding the ship, the unfortunate Ichiro Fujita became seasick.As a Japanese himself, Fujita Ichiro did not take less boats, but when he traveled between China and Japan, he always took a comfortable cruise ship. Where did he take this kind of cruiser with high speed and strong bumps?What's more, the weather was not good. As soon as we got out of the port, there were a lot of waves on the sea. Fujita Ichiro, who was dizzy in the cabin, vomited in a mess. The sailors below were all snickering, and Ichiro Fujita, who was so angry that he didn't even have the strength to scold his mother, couldn't help cursing the damn Yusaku Uehara in his heart. If it wasn't for him, how could he suffer such a hardship?

On November 11th, the first snow fell in Fengtian, and the entire Fengtian city became covered in white overnight.Following the news of Da Shanyan's death, Zhang Zuolin found that Ri himself on the opposite side was still the same, and secretly delighted in his heart, he kept guessing whether Ri himself would give up the idea of ​​attacking in this way.These days, the Japanese on the opposite side still didn't make any movement, but Zhang Zuolin still didn't relax his vigilance, and still stepped up to build fortifications and organize troops to prevent accidents.Until today's heavy snow, Zhang Zuolin, who hadn't smiled for a long time, finally breathed a sigh of relief. After November, the Northeast will enter winter. The change of weather makes the war more difficult. great thing.

"Master, there is a situation!"

The chief of staff, Yang Yuting, rushed over suddenly, which startled Zhang Zuolin.

"What's the situation, did Ri himself attack?"

"No...no..." Yang Yuting, who was running out of breath, shook his head.

"Damn it, you're going to scare me!" Zhang Zuolin cursed, and immediately asked, "If you have something to say, hurry up and fart!"

"The opposite... the opposite... Ri seems to be retreating..."

Zhang Zuolin stared: "Retreat? Is it true?"

"Really, I just saw through the binoculars that many Japanese soldiers are pulling out the camp." Yang Yuting pointed to the south and gestured with his hand.

"What the hell... Xiaori is going to leave just like that? Impossible?" Zhang Zuolin was skeptical, thought for a while and then waved his hand: "Go! I'll see for myself."

Not long after, Yang Yuting led Zhang Zuolin to the edge of the defense line. Several people hid in the fortification and looked in the direction of Yang Yuting's finger with binoculars.Sure enough, it was similar to what Yang Yuting said. Many soldiers of the Japanese army on the opposite side were unpacking and packing, and it seemed that they were really about to retreat.However, Zhang Zuolin still found that although there were many soldiers who left the camp, they were only a part of them. Most of the Japanese soldiers were still stationed in place.

"Damn it, it's really strange... What is this little Japanese book up to?" Zhang Zuolin, who can be regarded as an old man, held up his binoculars and looked at it for a long time, feeling somewhat puzzled by the actions of the Japanese army. It stands to reason that even if some troops are left for defense during the retreat, it is impossible to keep so many troops, so the efficiency of pulling out the camp and retreating is really low. Could it be that Ri himself is going to do some conspiracy?

"Marshal, in my opinion, this is normal. There are three reasons." Yang Yuting showed off his intelligence, shook his head and helped to analyze: "Since the death of Da Shanyan, the Japanese army has lost its commander-in-chief. The morale of the commander is not high. From last month to this month, there has been no progress for more than half a month. The front line is in chaos. It can be said that he has fallen into a dilemma. This is one. After the news of the death, the morale was boosted. The Fengtian defense line can be said to be solid under the garrison of the general. Even if the Japanese attack now, they will suffer heavy losses. In this case, the attack is not worth the loss. The third is the weather. It's snowing, and the weather will be severely cold when the snow falls, and fighting in severe winter has always been a taboo for military strategists in ancient times, and it is common sense for Ri himself to retreat considering this point."

"It seems to make sense..." Zhang Zuolin nodded, tilted his head after thinking for a while and asked, "But what's going on with this retreat?"

"It's easier to understand." Yang Yuting smiled slightly, as if he was holding a feather fan in his hand, he almost turned into a resourceful Zhuge Kongming, pointing to each other with a well-thought-out plan, and said: "The Japanese army is afraid of your might, commander, and I am afraid that our army will take advantage of the Japanese army. All of them did this when they retreated and launched an attack suddenly. In other words, they are just acting guilty!"

"Hahaha! Damn it, it's a guilty conscience, it's not bad." Zhang Zuolin laughed up to the sky a few times, then suddenly withdrew his smile and said solemnly: "Immediately send power to Zhong Yang, and say that because our officers and soldiers are united, they are ready to guard The Fengtian defense line has been successful, and the Japanese army is now invulnerable under our strict defenses, and is retreating!"
