Republic of China game

This is very clear, that is, Zhang Xueliang is not suitable for commanding this war, er, if you let him command, you will probably lose the battle.In fact, this is not bad. Now Zhang Xueliang’s think tank, Guo Songling, is in charge of resisting the CCP’s Red Army. Will Zhang Xueliang still fight without Guo Songling?

"What do you think, little six?" Being reminded by Yang Yuting, Zhang Zuolin also hesitated, and asked in a low voice.

Zhang Xueliang's face changed slightly, and he gave Yang Yuting a gloomy look, then got up and walked to his father's side, stood still, and said proudly: "My Fengjun is now united as one, with high morale, and vowed to drive out the Russian invaders and defend our country without the intervention of others. It is also possible to win. If not, please ask the father to behead his son!"

Seeing his son's full confidence, General Zhang smiled with satisfaction, stood up, and patted his son on the shoulder: "Little Six, you are doing well. You are indeed a man from our three eastern provinces! But this time, after all, the three families sent troops together , you still need to discuss with Wu Ziyu and Luo Fuwen more when you encounter problems, and listen to other people's opinions. In addition...there are Japanese military advisers, and there is a man named Itagaki and Ishihara who are very capable. You should also listen to them more opinion, so it should be safe.”

……

Chiang Kai-shek and Luo Yaoguo are a little troubled now.What is troubling is that there are now too many people who have sharpened their heads and want to squeeze into the team going north to resist Russia.To be honest, now the Kuomintang has occupied southern China, and they are living a happy life that has never been seen in history.This life is happy, but the promotion of officers is as slow as a snail!

This is a slow process of gaining qualifications... The first is to obtain excellent results in military academies such as Whampoa Military Academy, Naval Academy, and Aviation Academy.Then work diligently in the army without any slack, and every training and inspection must be excellent.Only in this way will they have the opportunity to enter the Army University and Naval University for further study after they have retired, and study books for two or three years, so that they will be eligible to be promoted to post after all.Of course, you still have to rely on your qualifications to get through slowly.

Therefore, it is really sad for soldiers without war. Just look at those middle-aged men who were sent by the German Wehrmacht to serve as instructors in various military academies of the Kuomintang!People's academic qualifications and qualifications are scary... and most of the military ranks are lieutenants, and a few of them are majors, such as Guderian and Rommel!Now Guderian is a professor at the Army University and a consultant to the Chariot Brigade of the Whampoa Military Academy.Rommel was a senior adviser to the Whampoa Military Academy.This time, these two great men are both German military advisers in the Beishang Staff Group.

And now it's finally a war, and it's a national war!How can this make the officers in the national army not envious?Maybe after this battle, he can be promoted to several ranks in a row, and he can step into the ranks of generals at a young age, just like Luo Yaoguo!Therefore, the letter of invitation flew to the desks of Chiang Kai-shek and Luo Yaoguo like snowflakes.

"Jiegong, why don't Hu Shoushan and Du Guangting enter Lu University for further study? They are now generals, and they have risen very quickly among the first class of students, and... they don't seem to be very good at fighting." Luo Yaoguo will take down all the two brigade commanders of the [-]th Division with one word.However, his words are still well-founded. These two are indeed not very capable of fighting.

Chiang Kai-shek picked up the resumes of the two and looked at them, but did not express any opinions.In fact, he thinks Hu Zongnan is pretty good... How about Du Yuming?I don't remember this student, and I don't know how I got into the position of brigade commander?

Seeing Lao Jiang's silence, Luo Yaoguo assumed that he agreed.He smiled slightly, picked up a few more invitation letters and said with a smile: "Here is Chen Mingren's invitation letter. He is now studying in the mainland. I think he can be allowed to join the war. It is no problem to bring a brigade. There are also Guo Shufen and Guan Linzheng. Now they are also in mainland China, and I want them to join the battle this time. There are also Song Xilian, Liu Kan, Yan Wu, Ouyang Tong, He Shaozhou, Gui Yongqing, Sun Yuanliang, Cen Biqing, Li Wenhua, Liu Yongyao, Wang Shuming, Li Yutang, Zheng Dongguo, Yu Jishi, Zhong Bin, Yu Chengwan, Huo Kuizhang, Fang Hailong, Huang Guyu and other first-term students will also go out with the army."

"How are you going to arrange personnel for the trip to the north this time?" Chiang Kai-shek didn't move, just asked lightly.

Luo Yaoguo explained the personnel arrangement with a smile: "The No. 18 division commander is An Sihua. I seriously condescend to the deputy division commander. Liu Fei is the chief of staff. The No. 30 fifth brigade commander Chen Mingren, deputy brigade commander Guan Linzheng, and the 36th brigade commander The brigade commander Guo Shufen, the deputy brigade commander Ouyang Tong. Liu Kan, Li Yutang, Zheng Dongguo, Yu Jishi, Zhong Bin, Yu Chengwan and others were the regimental commanders. Song Xilian was the commander of the artillery regiment, Huo Kuizhang was the commander of the engineering regiment, and He Shaozhou was the commander of the supply regiment , the commander of the cavalry is Fang Hailong."

"Li Wenhua, Liu Yongyao, and Wang Shuming are now the three squadron leaders of the Army Aviation Group. The captain is my righteous brother Li Shunen. This time they will also go to the expedition. Gui Yongqing is the commander of the Artillery Brigade of the Military Academy Teaching Corps. Huang Guyu is now the captain of the chariot brigade. Sun Yuanliang, Cen Biqing, and Yan Wu are all my staff."

The personnel arrangement this time almost included most of the elites in the first phase of Whampoa, and almost half of the officers of the original [-]th Division were replaced.In addition, a large number of soldiers were transferred from various units to supplement them. Basically, this unit has been remodeled, but the running-in period is shorter, only two or three months.

Chiang Kai-shek smiled faintly: "Brother Fuwen, the personnel arrangement this time is very good, taking care of the interests of all parties, especially our classmates in Huangpu. It's just... this time going north is to fight the Soviet Union. Are you sure? "

Speaking of certainty, Luo Yaoguo's eyebrows flashed with worry, and he smiled wryly: "If this battle becomes an all-out war, our strength is not as good as Soviet Russia after all... and now Soviet Russia is not as troubled by internal troubles as Tsarist Russia was back then. It is our internal instability. However, in this regard, the Ministry of Staff has arranged a backup, and there will naturally be some emergencies to end the war. Therefore, although victory is difficult, it should still be possible to keep our troops from suffering. It’s just that …It’s hard to say in the Feng Department.”

Chapter 0313 Going North to Anti-Russia ([-])

At 16:[-] am on March [-]th, [-].

On the military column going north.Luo Yaoguo was sitting blankly in his private room at the moment, his eyes were wide open, his mouth was also open, and he had a terrified expression on his face.He was still clutching a telegram draft in his hand, as if he was frightened by some bad news!

"General Luo, what news scared you into this?"

A blunt English with a German accent sounded.The person who said this was a tall German guy with a wrinkled Chinese character face and a pair of small but energetic blue eyes. He was Guderian!One of the German military advisers who accompanied the army this time.During the past few months in China, he and Luo Yaoguo have gotten to know each other very well.He and An Sihua are classmates at the Grossrichfeld Senior Military Academy, and they have a good relationship.So after arriving in China, he rented at An Sihua's house, and naturally he could often get in touch with An Sihua's brother-in-law, Luo Yaoguo.And...Luo Yaoguo also showed unusual enthusiasm for him, a great figure in World War II in Germany, so the two hit it off quite a bit.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I got some bad news, and I lost my composure." Luo Yaoguo seemed to be dragged out of fear by Guderian's voice. He glanced at the military strategist in front of him who seemed to be overly curious, and smiled wryly. : "It's really unlucky to meet Zhang Xueliang in Beishang this time."

"Zhang Xueliang? Is he an enemy?" Guderian was stunned. This name doesn't seem to be Russian?

"It would be great if he was the enemy! It's a pity that he is our supreme commander this time! He is the son of Zhang Zuolin, the great warlord in the north, and this time the war against Russia will be led by him." Luo Yaoguo shook his head dumbfounded.I really didn't expect that I would actually fight under the command of Zhang Xueliang!And there is still Zhang Xueliang without Guo Songling...

Guderian frowned, and the image of a dude with an oriental face appeared in his mind.However, Guderian didn't know how powerful Zhang Shaoshuai was, so he quickly smiled indifferently, waved his hands and said, "Let's not worry about these unchangeable things, let's see how we should formulate a battle plan. Major Rommel and I I did a rough study of the situation of this war. It seems that... it is not completely hopeless. The key is to adopt the correct deployment and tactics. This time the battlefield is in the northeast of China, where the border with Russia is as long as three Thousands of kilometers, to completely defend such a long border, the required troops will be very large. In fact, neither side has such troops.”

"...At present, the troops dispatched by the Feng army are only 10,000+ people. If we want to divide our troops to deploy defenses, it is easy to be defeated by the Russians who are taking the strategic initiative. The only feasible defense is to concentrate our forces and defeat the opponent. The Russians understand that they should also divide their forces to attack from different directions... As long as we take advantage of the inside line of operations, give full play to the convenient transportation network in Northeast China, and quickly mobilize our troops, we should be able to defeat them one by one of."

Luo Yaoguo straightened his body and listened carefully to every word Guderian said, smiling and nodding his head as he listened, expressing his agreement.In fact, Luo Yaoguo's views are indeed the same as Guderian's, this probably means that the heroes have the same views!After brazenly complacent in his heart, he raised his own doubts: "Mr. Guderian, how does the combat effectiveness of the Soviet Red Army you know compare with our [-]th Division? If the same number of troops on both sides encounter each other head-on , what chance do we have of winning?"

Guderian smiled: "I don't know how strong the current Red Army is...but if you want to change to the ordinary Russian army in the European War to meet your [-]th Division, if you don't have twice the strength, you will definitely lose Yes. In fact, their combat effectiveness is not too strong, it’s just that their country is vast and their population is large.”

Probably due to the poor performance of the Russians in World War I, and their defeat to Dabobo in the Soviet-Polish War a few years ago, most of these German military advisers did not think much of the combat effectiveness of the Soviet Red Army.However, Luo Yaoguo knew that the Red Army was actually very strong, and now the Soviet Union's national power had gradually begun to recover, and the batch of outstanding officers who had experienced the First World War and the Civil War were still alive...

"If the old Russian army could compete with our Eighteenth Division two to one, then the combat effectiveness of the Soviet Red Army would at least double, that is, one to one. And Fengjun... I understand that their combat effectiveness is at most equal If the [-]% of our National Revolutionary Army is replaced by a strengthened unit like the [-]th Division, it might only be [-]% or even lower than ours.”

Luo Yaoguo shook his head, his expression slightly solemn.In this battle, Feng Jun played the leading role, using their fighting power to fight against the current Soviet Red Army, the consequences would be to expose the true colors of paper tigers.In history, Ishihara Waner seems to have discovered that the Northeast Army was vulnerable during the Middle East Road War, and started to promote the 9.18 Incident.I don't know, how are the paper tigers preparing this time?

……

Tonight, the inside of Banxi Gongguan in Dongjiaomin Lane is brightly lit.In the spacious hall, candlesticks are shining brightly, and Japanese-style dining tables are arranged in a zigzag pattern.Two geisha with thick powder makeup on their faces are playing melodious music with shamisen (three stringed instruments).

The table is full of pure Japanese-style sumptuous dishes, such as Kobe beef, Hashidate's tempura, Osaka's Okuden, as well as tuna sashimi, yuzi, herring sushi, and the red lacquer tableware is full.

Rihachiro Sakanishi knelt on the central seat in a loose kimono.On both sides of him are two lovers, Seishiro Itagaki and Kenji Doihara.Sitting across from Sakanishi was a middle-aged man with a serious expression, menacing gloom in his eyes, a thin stature, but sitting unusually upright.Like Sakanishi and others, he is also dressed in casual kimono.

The four Japanese devils were chatting while eating at this time. Apart from some anecdotes seen in northern China, the content of the topic was Fengjun and this Sino-Soviet conflict.

Banxi took a sip of sake lightly, and looked at the middle-aged man opposite with a smile: "Ishihara-kun came all the way this time, it's really hard work. I wonder how Ishihara-kun feels after seeing the various divisions of Fengjun?"

He is Ishihara!The worst villain with the surname Ishihara among the Japanese is of course Ishihara Wanji.He, Kenji Doihara and Seishiro Itagaki can be listed as the three treasures of Japan's invasion of China.Without him, the Kwantung Army in history might not be able to make up its mind to occupy the Northeast right away?

Ishihara Waner smiled humbly, and bowed to the old senior opposite: "Your Excellency, I feel that Fengjun is weak, very weak. It is hard for me to imagine that such a weak Fengjun would dare to provoke the Soviet Union." , I am afraid that your meritorious deeds cannot be missed here, right?"

Banxi chuckled and waved his hands: "It's not a meritorious service. These are just my responsibilities. It's a pity... this responsibility can't be fulfilled for a few days. After the end of the Fengsu battle, I should transfer to It's a reserve. It's a pity, it's not a good time."

"Your Excellency is just serving His Majesty the Emperor in another way." Ishihara just smiled slightly, and then turned the topic back to the Fengsu War: "Ask Your Excellency, what kind of ending should this Fengsu War be striving for?" What's most beneficial?"

Banxi only smiled, and asked back: "I would like to hear the opinion of you, a famous strategist in mainland China, on this question."

Hearing the word "strategist", Shi Yuan showed a hint of complacency on his face.He nodded his head and said hi: "Before talking about this issue, it is necessary to understand the current situation in China. In the past two years, earth-shaking changes have taken place in China... The development of the South Branch seems to have exceeded everyone's expectations! This shows that although China has been weakened for decades, their potential is still not comparable to that of our island country."

Speaking of which, the Japanese present here, including the two geisha with white faces, were slightly taken aback.Shi Yuan glanced at the crowd, and then smiled slightly: "But it's not that the empire has no chance... It's just that some of the original strategies are no longer applicable. Fortunately, the empire is not the only one that has ambitions for China. The bear in the north But he never gave up his aggression against China, whether it is the tsar or the current revolutionaries, it is a virtue."

"...an increasingly powerful southern branch not only hinders the rise of the empire, but also poses a threat to the realization of the Soviet Union's ambitions... What's more, the Soviet Union and Russia are the countries that have cut off the most territory from China! A strong China Will you let go of the opportunity for revenge... Therefore, in this war between the Soviet Union and the Soviet Union, the most beneficial outcome for the empire is to let the Soviet Union realize the threat of the rise of the Southern Branch! Then turn to cooperation with the empire."

"Cooperate with the Soviet Union...?" Banxi frowned tightly, as if he was not satisfied with the result.

But Ishihara shook his head violently: "The empire only wants Manchuria... the rest of the territory is handed over to the Soviet Union. Let the Soviet Union and the Kuomintang in the southern branch go to the bitter end. Make plans after the empire digests Manchuria. But in order to achieve the goal of cooperating with the Soviet Union The purpose is that we should do everything possible to help the Kuomintang troops from the southern branch in this war with the Soviet Union, and let them teach the Soviet Union a lesson. Let the Soviets see the potential of China, and at the same time let them see that once Japan makes peace with the Soviet Union It is absolutely possible for the Southern Branches to join hands to defeat the Soviet Union in the Far East and carve up the Eastern territory of the Soviet Union!"

As soon as these high-level remarks were uttered, the atmosphere in the room suddenly froze.Only the melodious music played by the shamisen can be heard.Banxi, Doihara and Itagaki were all in a daze, probably unable to digest the plan proposed by Ishihara Wanji.To be honest, this plan is also a bit complicated.

"The ultimate goal of the empire... is to join hands with the Soviet Union to join hands with the Gua branch?" After a long silence, Rihachiro Sakanishi asked hesitantly.

Ishihara frowned slightly, and shook his head: "The ultimate enemies of the empire are the Soviet Union and the United States. So it is not worth spending too much energy on China. If you can capture Manchuria, and then let the Soviet Union and China conflict, the empire will seize the opportunity. Manchuria’s abundant resources are the best way to develop heavy industry and accumulate strength for the future decisive battles between Japan and the Soviet Union and Japan and the United States.”

……

Beijing Qianmen Railway Station.A large group of people in neat robes had already gathered on the platform.There are painted archways around the platform.A neatly dressed Fengjun honor guard lined up on the platform in three rows, holding the Fengjun flag, and all the soldiers stood silently with [-]-style rifles on their shoulders.

A long train had stopped beside the platform, and the door of one of the carriages was wide open.Several Chinese and foreign officers in military uniforms came down from the carriage talking and laughing.The dignitaries of the Feng family who were waiting below the platform also stepped forward to shake hands with them one by one.It turned out that this was a welcome ceremony held by the Central Committee of the Fengtian Department for the National Army Staff Group going north, including the commander-in-chief of the Middle East Road War of Resistance-Zhang Xueliang, the tour envoy of the three eastern provinces, Zeng Qi, the Prime Minister of the Republic of China, Yang Yuting, the General Counselor of the Fengjun Army, and the Northeast Army. Border Guard Commander Jiang Dengxuan and others were all present.It can be said that it has given the Kuomintang and Luo Yaoguo enough face.

At this time, Luo Yaoguo was holding General Zhang Xueliang's hand tightly, and the two of them were full of spring breeze, and they couldn't talk more cordially.It seems that I can't wait to set up an incense table immediately so that I can kowtow and worship.

"Well, this time, all the factions in China are really united and united to the outside world. Our central government has also made up its mind to fight the Soviet Union this time."

Zhang Xueliang took Luo Yaoguo's hand and walked towards the limousine parked on the platform while talking eloquently: "If we win this battle, no one in the world will dare to look down on us from now on, and we in China will be able to revived."

"Yes, this battle is indeed a matter of national destiny. Even if we can draw a close draw with the Soviet Union, no one in the world will dare to underestimate China in the future, right? Maybe the North will be able to recover by then. Tariffs are independent, and then settle down and develop well. In this way, the north and the south will join hands to resist strong invaders and defend sovereignty, and the country will have hope..."

Luo Yaoguo's words were not all clichés, they were quite sincere.Now he sincerely hopes that Feng Jun can lose better, otherwise the Japanese will see your falsehood, and the next life will be difficult, right?But looking at Young Marshal Zhang's confident face, and seeing the worried faces of Zeng Qi and Yang Yuting beside him, I'm afraid the trouble this time will be serious.
