Shanghai: The First Warlord of the Republic of China

If we had dozens of nuclear bombs, I guess every problem could be solved.

Of course, dozens of nuclear bombs may be a bit far-fetched. There are probably not even dozens of nuclear bombs in the world right now.

Moreover, if I remember correctly, at this time, no country in the world has developed a nuclear bomb.

The Beautiful Country, the White Bear Country, and some top Western powers have already begun research on nuclear bombs.

However, they are currently only in the research stage and have not yet fully researched it.

What this means is that the nuclear bomb he has now is very likely the only nuclear bomb in the world.

This is indeed good news, as it can catch the Japanese off guard.

But, again, just one nuclear bomb is far from enough.

If only there were more nuclear bombs.

If you want more nuclear bombs, you can only ask for them from the system.

"The last time Longmen's troops reached 800,000, the system gave them an aircraft carrier and a nuclear bomb."

"If I'm not mistaken, the next system reward should be when there are one million people."

"When the number of Longmen disciples reaches one million, the system will definitely give rewards again."

"When the time comes, we will definitely give you aircraft carriers and nuclear bombs."

"Therefore, gathering the number of Longmen disciples to one million is a top priority."

Ye Yunfei murmured.

He had wanted to gather a million Longmen disciples before.

However, at that time, the purpose was to deal with the domestic warlords, and the situation was not very tense.

It would be best if we could get one million people, but it doesn’t matter if we can’t.

With the existing troops in Longmen, we can still deal with those warlords.

But now, the target of the war has changed from warlords to the Japanese, and the situation is different.

He has the confidence and ability to deal with the warlords.

Even without a million-strong army and system rewards, he can still handle it.

However, I'm afraid it won't be effective against the Japanese.

Only when the number of Longmen people reaches one million and receives rewards from the system, will he be sure to deal with the Japanese.

Therefore, the most important thing now is to gather the total number of Longmen troops to one million.

Ye Yunfei thought about it and decided to ask Ding Li, Xu Wenqiang, and Liu Zhengfeng to go and recruit soldiers again.

However, the three of them are now busy with their own things, so let's talk about it after they have dealt with those things.

Ye Yunfei guessed that the total number of Longmen troops should be around 900,000 now, and there are only more than 100,000 people left away from one million.

If we really try our best to recruit people, perhaps it is not too difficult to recruit 100,000 people in about ten days.

Let Xu Wenqiang and Ding Li handle the matters at hand first.

Then let them recruit soldiers.

Ye Yunfei has made up his mind to do it.

……

During the next two days, everyone in Longmen was busy.

The Longmen army continued to gather towards Shanghai.

The number of troops gathering on Shanghai Beach is increasing.

The total amount is already five or six hundred thousand.

Moreover, there are still large armies coming towards Shanghai from all directions.

The number of troops in Shanghai has reached a peak.

However, these Longmen troops came to Shanghai in secret.

After coming to Shanghai, he also hid near Shanghai.

Did not show up in Shanghai.

Therefore, except for a few high-level insiders of Longmen, the rest of the people were not aware that Longmen had sent so many disciples to Shanghai.

This was of course also Ye Yunfei's order.

If the Japanese want to attack Shanghai, we must not let them know the total military strength in Shanghai.

Let the Japanese think that there are not many people in Shanghai. When they really launch the attack, a million people will suddenly jump out. By then, the Japanese themselves will probably be shocked.

This unexpected approach is still very effective in actual combat.

Therefore, hiding one's strength will definitely have its benefits.

Two days later, in Lido.

Ding Li, Xu Wenqiang, and Liu Zhengfeng have all returned.

It was obvious that these three people had gained something when they came back.

Therefore, Ye Yunfei asked directly: "How is it going? Have you three completed the tasks I asked you to do?"

Xu Wenqiang said: "I have sent statements to several major countries in the world, hoping that they can send troops to deal with the Japanese, or use various methods to sanction the Japanese."

"But so far, no country has responded."

"All countries are silent. It seems that they are not very willing to send troops."

Ye Yunfei said: "This is very normal. Who would have nothing to do and meddle in other people's affairs?"

"Those powerful Western countries are all shrewd people. If there is no benefit, they will not cause trouble for themselves."

"Not to mention that the Japanese are very powerful now. If they intervene, it will also pose a threat to themselves."

"So, unless you give them enough benefits, they won't help."

Ye Yunfei had actually already thought about the reactions of those Western countries.

They are all sophisticated egoists.

If there is no benefit, I will never take action.

Therefore, asking them to help was almost a dream.

Xu Wenqiang nodded and said, "Yes, this road doesn't seem to be feasible."

Ye Yunfei looked at Liu Zhengfeng and said, "Zhengfeng, what about you? What is the attitude of those warlords in the country?"

He asked Liu Zhengfeng to contact several larger warlords in the Republic of China.

See if those warlords are willing to send troops to protect Shanghai.

I don’t know if Liu Zhengfeng has gained anything.

Liu Zhengfeng also looked solemn, and said, "I sent people to contact those big warlords. They were all very surprised when they heard the news that the Japanese invaders were attacking Shanghai."

"I asked them to send troops to support me, but they all said they would think about it and give us a reply after they have considered it carefully."

Ye Yunfei said: "Have you asked them how long they plan to consider it?"

Liu Zhengfeng said: "I asked, but they were all vague and didn't give a precise answer."

Ye Yunfei sneered and said, "They are just some sneaky people. It is impossible to rely on them."

"By the time they had thought it through, the Battle of Shanghai would have been over."

"I've said it before, these people are totally unreliable. The most important thing is to rely on ourselves."

Xu Wenqiang and Liu Zhengfeng both bowed their heads in silence.

They didn't expect this result.

I thought that only a few countries or two or three warlords would come to help.

Unexpectedly, there was not one.

Ye Yunfei was right, they were indeed some sneaky people...
