Rebirth of the National Marshal

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long, friends from the press. Something happened suddenly on the front line, so our governor made some arrangements. I now declare the press conference officially begin." The new government secretary-general, Ms. Xie Jingya, conquered most of the reporters with her elegant demeanor.

It is generally considered that she, a young girl, is somewhat inadequate for this position. However, as Mao Yuanshan said, there is a first time for everything. Why do you think Miss Xie is incompetent? She may be able to do the job quite well. After a month, she has done a very good job on all the big and small matters within the government.

Many young people had ideas about this incredibly beautiful government secretary general, but later when they saw her often having dinner with the governor, they understood what was going on. No wonder she was so young and could sit in the position of government secretary general. There were reasons for it. It was not easy to do the job without anyone in the court, and her brother was the chief of staff on the front line.

Everyone knew that this must be the future governor's wife. The two of them often ate together. What did this mean? There must be a reason. Why didn't the governor eat with me every day?

"Hello, everyone. If you have any questions, you can ask them now." Originally, all the journalist friends thought that Mao Yuanshan would definitely give a speech on the current situation. Unexpectedly, Mao Yuanshan did not say anything and directly asked the reporters to start asking questions. This guy did not play by the rules, and for a moment, the journalist friends did not know what to say.

It was Mao Yuanshan who requested to arrange such a link. The initiative must be in one's own hands when doing anything. The same should also be true for a press conference. Reporters should not be the protagonists. Only Mao Yuanshan could do it by giving reporters a warning right from the start.

"Hello, Mr. Mao, I am a reporter from Chahar Daily. May I ask Governor Mao Yuanshan how you respond to the provocation of the Soviet army?" Generally speaking, the first questions asked at every press conference are from one's own media. Mao Yuanshan attaches great importance to the development of the media. Since he became the chairman of the Chahar Provincial Government, Chahar Daily has also become a very important propaganda tool.

In the past, Chahar Daily only had a few reporters, and most of the news published in it were reprinted from the Central Daily News. Now it is different from before. They must make their own voices. This is the task given to them by Mao Yuanshan. The number of reporters has increased a lot, as have the number of editors. Of course, the content has also become richer. At least in the north, Chahar Daily has its own place.

"This journalist friend has raised a very good question. Now I will announce the Chahar government's response to the Soviet provocation. First of all, as I speak, our Air Force's approximately 300 bombers and more than 100 fighter jets have begun to attack more than a dozen military bases in the Soviet Far East. I believe that we have already received results. Please allow our chief of staff to read out the results we have achieved." Everyone present was dumbfounded after hearing Mao Yuanshan's words. How could they play so unconventionally?

Everyone knows that Mao Yuanshan is a useless general who has no rules for doing things. He will definitely retaliate against the Soviet actions. However, the Japanese army is now approaching and has already gathered heavy troops in the Northeast, preparing to attack Mao Yuanshan. It is definitely not a good plan to provoke the Soviets at this time.

The Chinese reporters present immediately stood up and cheered regardless of their status. The other staff members were also very happy. It was the first time for them to hear the news. Although they felt that it was a bit reckless, they were still very comfortable. What's wrong with you Soviets? What's wrong with the world's second largest industrial power? As long as you have offended us, we can retaliate against you, and our revenge will be immediate. Many people believe that it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge, but unfortunately, as the chairman of our provincial government, we believe in revenge, and we do it immediately.

Before you can react, my bomb has already fallen on your head. It all depends on how capable you are.

The speed of the Chahar government's response really surprised everyone. Before the press conference was held, they had already sent the air force to attack. Many people did not expect such a speed, not even some soldiers in the hall.

"Dear journalists, I am Jiang Baili, Chief of Staff of the Military Commission of the Chahar Provincial Government. Let me tell you about the results of this offensive. When the press conference was just held, the first wave of air strikes had already returned to our airport, and the second wave of planes were already on the way to attack. In this air strike, we attacked 100 Soviet military targets, killing about 11 Soviet soldiers of various types, and destroyed more than 100 aircraft, 12 military airports, three oil depots, about armored vehicles and tanks, bridges, and countless buildings of various types."

If what Mr. Chiang Bai-ri said was true, the Soviet Far East Military District had almost been paralyzed. Even if they wanted to launch a counterattack on Chahar, they would not have the strength now. In addition to the first wave of bombing, the second wave of planes was already on the way.

"These are battlefield photos airlifted back by our planes. You can circulate them to prove that I am not lying." Mr. Chiang Bai-ri knew that these reporters would not believe him, so he asked the Air Force to take some photos so that you can see that our Chahar Air Force is absolutely world-class and can easily defeat the Soviets.

Afterwards, several combat staff officers distributed some photos to reporters. The facts were right in front of you and you couldn't help but believe it. In their eyes, this backward country could already dispatch hundreds of planes at any time to carry out overwhelming bombing on the enemy. It was really a tragedy for the Soviets at that time.

"Mr. Chairman, does your central government know about this matter? Do you know whether your actions will lead to disputes between the two countries? This is just a simple border dispute. Aren't you afraid of causing friction by making such a big fuss?" The reporter who asked the question was not assigned to ask questions. From his appearance, one could tell that he was a Soviet reporter.
