Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Rise of China

Li Guosheng snatched the telegram, stared at it, and began to browse the telegram in his hand.

"Crack..." After reading the telegram, Li Guosheng looked angry, and directly arranged the telegram on the desk in front of him.Facing the Deputy Chief of Staff Xiong Shaowen, he roared loudly: "You doggy old man, you really know how to choose the time. If you don't fight early, you don't fight late, but at the critical moment of the Tonghua battle, you stabbed us in the back..."

After finishing speaking, facing Xiong Shaowen in front of him, he ordered sharply: "Deputy Chief of Staff Xiong, immediately instruct the intelligence department to quickly find out the specific strength and equipment of the Soviet Far East Red Army at all costs. Hurry up...tell the intelligence department Colonel Zhang Tianyu, I will give him one day, if he can't come up with the results within one day, he will give up the position of chief intelligence officer to someone else..."

"Yes, Chief...>

When Deputy Chief of Staff Xiong Shaowen left the office, Li Guosheng frowned tightly, not only did not relax, but frowned even deeper.Walking to the map, without saying a word, staring at the battle map marked with various data in front of him, he began to compare the gap between himself and the Soviet Far East Red Army and the Japanese Kwantung Army that has not yet been eliminated...>

In less than 5 minutes, the anger on Li Guosheng's face was replaced by an expression of deep worry about the future.

Looking around, the entire Ninth Army is deployed in the three northeastern provinces, and there are only six main divisions at full strength.

Defending the Northeast Army in the pass requires a main division.The ongoing Tonghua decisive battle requires at least two main divisions to sustain it.The entire territory of Liaoning Province that has been occupied also needs a main division to maintain law and order and eliminate the remaining enemies in the territory.As for the two main divisions that invaded North Korea, the troops suffered heavy losses.In addition, it is necessary to prepare for the Japanese army's Korean garrison.Two main divisions, I can't draw them out at all...

Calculate it like this.I don't have any extra soldiers at all, so I can transfer them into Heilongjiang.Fight against the Soviet Far East Red Army that invaded Heilongjiang...

"The troops are still insufficient...>

Looking at the three northeastern provinces, I have no soldiers to adjust.Li Guosheng's gaze could only be shifted to his old lair, the territory of Shandong Province, and he aimed his ideas at the left-behind troops in Shandong.

In addition to the six main divisions that entered the three northeastern provinces to fight, I stayed in Shandong and was commanded by Chief of Staff Jiang Baili, and there were three main combat divisions.Two brigades of the Guard Division, one Mountain Division, one brigade of the Armor Division, and three brigades of the Heavy Artillery Division, with a total of more than [-] people...>

An army of [-] sounds very large.However, thinking of the major local forces that are entrenched around Shandong Province and have been eyeing Shandong Province.Li Guosheng knew, no matter how arrogant he was.Believe in the combat effectiveness of your troops.It is also necessary to leave at least [-] troops guarding the rear to ensure the safety of supplies of various materials and ammunition on the front line...

So, after all the calculations, the troops that I can draw from the rear.There are only 4 people at the top.

As for the Soviet Far East Red Army that invaded Dongshan Province, although they did not receive specific information, they did.Li Guosheng can be sure from the number of breakthroughs chosen by the Soviet Red Army and the speed of attack.The Soviet Far East Red Army that entered the three northeastern provinces had at least 10 people.And it is still a heavy infantry equipped with a large number of artillery, tanks, and aircraft...

No soldiers can be adjusted...>

The troops engaged in two-sided combat, relying on their own abilities alone, could not carry out orderly coordinated command at all... This was Li Guosheng's second feeling under the double pressure of the tens of thousands of elites of the Soviet Far East Red Army and the Kwantung Army.

Faced with many difficulties, Li Guosheng had to turn his idea to Jiang Baili, the only chief of staff in the Ninth Army who could help him and make feasible suggestions.

After a long sigh, he said to himself: "It seems that it is time to transfer the Chief of Staff out of Shandong Province and put him on a bigger stage, so that he can display his military talents... >

Thinking of this, a decisive expression slowly appeared on Li Guosheng's face.

Facing the adjutant guarding the door, he ordered loudly: "Adjutant, immediately send a telegram to the chief of staff in Jinan. Let the chief of staff quickly take a military plane and rush to Shenyang in the shortest possible time. I have something important to discuss with him... >

Li Guosheng's office hurried to Jiang Baili in Shenyang, and before he could take a breath, he stood in front of Li Guosheng.

Jiang Baili, who also received a few plain codes from the Northeast Frontier Defense Army, asked with a tired face: "Boss, are you in such a hurry because of the old Soviet Union...>

Li Guosheng nodded noncommittally, and under Jiang Baili's watchful eyes, he explained all the difficulties and thoughts he encountered one by one.Then, looking at Jiang Baili who was silent in front of him, he waited for the other party's answer. [

1 minutes, 2 minutes... >

"After more than half a year of expansion and training, we have established nine local security divisions in Shandong Province. At present, these security divisions have reached a full establishment of 9000 people. As long as a certain amount of heavy equipment is strengthened, it can become a famous team. The main field division...>

"Although these troops are a group of recruits who have never seen blood, as long as they go to the battlefield, these recruits will transform into veterans sooner or later..."

"What I mean is that all the nine local security divisions will be upgraded to the main field divisions, and they will go out and enter the three northeastern provinces to participate in the battle against Lao Maozi..."

Seeing Li Guosheng who looked thoughtful, Jiang Baili continued to analyze: "Also, before we sent troops to the Northeast, we had already obtained the authorization of the veteran. In the process of fighting the devils, we can appropriately expand the army. Now, the old "Mao" The son also stabbed a knife in the back and paid attention to attacking our three northeastern provinces, so we had to "force" to expand our troops..."

Having said that, a hint of helplessness and disappointment towards the national government quickly rushed to Jiang Baili's cheeks.Facing Li Guosheng in front of him, he said with hatred: "Boss, I believe that when we received the telegram from the Soviet Union to invade the three eastern provinces, Lao Jiang who was far away in Nanjing also received this telegram."

"Facing the invasion of foreign enemies, as the head of a country's "government". Up to now, there has been no response. Not even the most basic diplomatic protest. Not as I expected, Lao Jiang of the Nanjing "government". It is waiting for my Ninth Army to act. Look at my Ninth Army joke, push my Ninth Army to the opposite side of the Soviet Far East Red Army, and add another strong enemy to my Ninth Army. After all, my Ninth Army is the entire Outside the customs, the only organized Chinese army."

"Since Lao Jiang always sees our jokes and retreats us into the fire pit, then we will give Lao Jiang a trick..."

Li Guosheng's eyes lit up.It seems that he realized something from Jiang Baili's words.However, thinking about it seriously, it seems that nothing has been grasped.

Frowning slightly, he turned to Jiang Baili and asked: "Chief of Staff, to be more specific, why do you just plan..."

Jiang Baili didn't answer right away, but looked at Li Guosheng, and asked with a meaningful face: "Boss, before answering. I have a question for you to answer...>

Li Guosheng, an iron-blooded soldier from later generations, said without even thinking about it: "It goes without saying. I, Li Guosheng, am not the Empress Dowager Cixi of the Manchu "government"."

"Those occupied Chinese lands, no matter how the old Maozi swallowed them, I will spit them out intact. No matter how high the price is paid, I will not hesitate. As for the old Soviet Maozi who invaded China For the army, one word is 'hit'. Four words are 'hit hard'. If possible, it is best to wipe them out. Let the old Maozi pay the price for their reckless military behavior...>

Hearing this, Jiang Baili quickly showed an expression of admiration on his face.

Facing Li Guosheng, who was still filled with righteous indignation, he said, "Boss, the humble official did not misunderstand the person... Among all the major local forces in China, you are the only one who dares to say 'no' to the great powers and dare to fight against the armies of the great powers... Just because of your love for the country and the people, I, Jiang Baili, entrust the rest of my life to you, it is worth it..."

Having said that, a strange smile flashed across the corner of Jiang Baili's mouth.Facing Li Guosheng, he replied: "Boss, the so-called plan is to use this opportunity given to us by Lao Jiang to allow our Ninth Army to completely get rid of the control of the Nanjing National Government and form an army of its own, which is not subject to the national army. The impact of the establishment. I don’t know if you want to grasp it... >

Hearing this, Li Guosheng first showed a shocked expression on his face, and then was covered by an expression of surprise from the heart.

Form a self-contained army, free from the influence and control of the government...>

The "temptations" mentioned by Chief of Staff Jiang Baili, without exception, are the goals he most wants to achieve since his rebirth.

Because only in this way can we give full play to our abilities and develop ourselves to the fullest.A few years later, when the world is undergoing great changes, he will use his own strength to win a piece of the pie for the Chinese nation in the world war...

Now that he suddenly heard that this opportunity was in front of him, Li Guosheng felt as if he was hit by a golden cake that fell from the sky.The whole body is undoubtedly not shrouded in surprise.

Staring at a pair of expectant eyes, he asked Jiang Baili: "Chief of Staff, be more specific...>

For Jiang Baili, he also hopes that Li Guosheng, who he has pinned his hopes on, can walk to the seat where Lao Jiang is sitting first one day in the future.Then, lead the whole country, get rid of the control of the big powers, step by step to the top of the world, and become a world power.

Without the slightest hesitation, he replied decisively: "First of all, in the name of the Ninth Army General Command, power the whole country, sever diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union, and issue a solemn protest, declare war on the Soviet Union, defend the country to the death, and eliminate all the Red Army that invaded the Soviet Far East...some things, Since Lao Jiang, who is the country's supreme ruler, is unwilling to do it, then our Ninth Group will do it for him in the name of the "government".

"Second: electrify the whole country, in order to ensure that the three northeastern provinces of China will not fall into the hands of the Soviet Far East Army, and defend the country. From now on, our Ninth Army will be officially reorganized into the 'National Defense Force', with the three northeastern provinces and the four provinces of Shandong Province Fight to the end with the Soviet Far East Red Army and the Japanese Kwantung Army, vowing to keep the three northeastern provinces..."

"Third: The whole country is still electrified: because the great powers are powerful and have a strong military force. In order to ensure that the country is not lost, the national defense force has follow-up strength to continue fighting. Our national defense force hopes to get the support of people from all walks of life across the country and rush to the three northeastern provinces to join the national defense force and protect the family Patriotic...>

Li Guosheng looked excited.Because of his excitement, he clenched his fist and slammed it hard on the desk in front of him.

Facing Jiang Baili, he said loudly: "Okay! It's a clear code... In the face of the righteousness of the nation, the defense of the family and the country. As long as Lao Jiang still wants to sit in the position of the "chairman" of the National Government, he will be able to get the people of the whole country. Support, don’t bear the notoriety of treason. Faced with these few calls, he has only one way to go, and that is to be dumb and eat coptis. He unconditionally agrees to all our demands and acquiesces to the existence of our national defense force...”

"The boss is wise..." Jiang Baili replied with a smile.

"After these three telegrams were sent out, we not only gained a firm foothold in front of Chiang Kai-shek, forcing him to agree to our request. At the same time, we also established a firm foothold in front of all the people across the country, letting the people know that our Ninth Army has reorganized itself into ' The National Defense Force' is not for rebellion, but for better defense of the country. Further enhance the status of our National Defense Force in the hearts of the people."

Li Guosheng nodded approvingly, turned to Jiang Baili, and continued to ask: "Chief of Staff, you are the one who came up with the idea of ​​changing the National Defense Forces. No accident. In your heart, you must have a draft of the army reorganization plan, so say it. Let's discuss it together."

"Yes, Chief..."

Jiang Baili did not deny it.After finding a file from the carry-on folder.He opened the mouth and said: "Boss, these are some simple thoughts I was thinking on the plane... >

"Since we plan to form an army on our own. It is different from the national government army, so we have to do it thoroughly."

"The first one is to completely abandon the three-level organization of the national government's military division brigade and replace it with the existing two-level division organization of our army, simplifying the command system of the army...>

Just as Jiang Baili finished speaking, Li Guosheng, who was listening intently, decisively interrupted what Jiang Baili wanted to say.Facing Jiang Baili, he agreed from the bottom of his heart: "You are right, chief of staff. The three-level command system of the National Government's military division brigade is not conducive to the command of the army in any aspect. And our division The two-level command system, on the one hand, avoids duplication of command of the troops, and on the other hand, it can further condense the combat effectiveness of the troops...>

After Jiang Baili nodded noncommittally, he continued: "Second, in order to distinguish us from the national government army, we must also have our own promotion system and military rank. Only in this way can the soldiers be better on the battlefield. Fighting the enemy bravely, with the goal of becoming a soldier..."

“Article [-]………>

Under Jiang Baili's proposal, it took the two of them a full two hours to discuss matters related to the establishment of the national defense force.

And at this moment, Xiong Shaowen, the deputy chief of staff, finally appeared in front of the two of them... >

Taking out the information just forwarded by the Intelligence Department, he reported solemnly: "Chief, Staff Officer, the results just collected and sorted out by the Intelligence Department... The specific troop strength and equipment of the Soviet Far East Red Army have all been Here it is...>

Jiang Baili waved his hand, and ordered: "Don't read the telegram, please give us a detailed introduction to the specific troop strength of the Soviet Far East Army... As the saying goes, 'Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles'. Before you really declare war on the Soviet Far East Red Army, You must first figure out the true strength of your opponent..."

"Yes, attend..."

Xiong Shaowen quickly found a map of the Far East and spread it out in front of the two of them, then took out a pencil, first pointed to the location of Hailanpao, and introduced: "Boss, attendant, from Hailanpao to Heihe area The Soviet Far East Red Army, preliminary investigation, has a total of one main division, one tank regiment, and one aviation regiment. In addition, in the city of Belogorsk, the Soviet Union behind Hailanpao, there are signs of a large number of Soviet Far East Red Army gathering, probably There are two main divisions and one tank division..."

Hearing this, not only Li Guosheng, but also Chief of Staff Jiang Baili's expression suddenly became gloomy.Seeing Xiong Shaowen who was looking at him without saying a word, Li Guosheng nodded and ordered: "Continue talking...>

Deputy Chief of Staff Xiong Shaowen took a pencil and drew a big circle at the location of Manzhouli.Then, taking Manzhouli as the starting point, he drew a shoulder representing the attack in the direction of Qiqihar, and introduced: "According to the investigation by the Intelligence Department, Manzhouli fell into the hands of the Soviet Far East Army five hours ago."

"The Soviet Far Eastern Red Army occupying Manzhouli seems to have no intention of stopping. It is leading by a mechanized infantry division and a tank regiment and continues to march towards Qiqihar. In addition to this forward force, the Soviet Far Eastern Red Army that is constantly gathering in Manzhouli is also There are three main divisions, two tank divisions, two heavy artillery divisions, and one air division, with a total strength of 6 people...>

"The situation in the direction of Suifenhe is also not optimistic... >

"Chief of Staff, judging from the report, the situation on the battlefield is far beyond our imagination... With an army of 20, the old Maozi really thinks highly of us..." Li Guosheng, who looked at the map and sighed, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Jiang Baili nodded in agreement, and said with the same serious expression: "If it is a devil with poor equipment in the 20 army, I, Jiang Baili, am confident that I can defeat him. However, this is not a little devil, but a well-equipped man with good equipment. The Soviet Far East Red Army with a large number of tanks, heavy artillery, and even aircraft... Chief, this time our Ninth Army, no, it is the Chinese National Defense Army, and we have really met our opponent."

After a brief silence, a decisive expression quickly surfaced on Li Guosheng's cheek.Facing Jiang Baili, he said in a firm tone: "Chief of Staff, it's still what I just said, no matter how difficult the difficulty is, as Chinese soldiers, we must face it bravely...>

After finishing speaking, he pointed to the map and analyzed: "After the Soviet Far East Red Army broke through the original frontier defense line, the entire gate of Heilongjiang was completely opened for them. In such a situation, it is impossible to completely block the Soviet Union's offensive. Since this is the case, my idea is: first of all, the elite, especially the special warfare division, will be quickly dispatched to Heilongjiang, and the Soviet Far East Red Army’s offensive pace will be slowed down as much as possible... >

"As for us, we took advantage of this time to reorganize our troops and at the same time dispatch troops from Shandong Province to go out to fight against the old Soviet Union Maozi, and strive to wipe out all the invading Soviet Far East Red Army in the territory of Heilongjiang...>
