Anti-Japanese War: When I get promoted, the system will explode with soldiers

"Sit down, sit down, don't speak yet."

After Mayor Yuan finished speaking, the inspection team leader Ma Youcheng was about to stand up and express his opinion, but was held back by Mayor Yuan.

"This is just a small matter. I'm bringing it up here to remind everyone to be on guard in the future, not to discuss this matter specifically. Today's meeting is mainly about the issue of the Eastern Autonomous Government. Commissioner Li's troops have already reached Yishun County and have taken control of two counties. We've also received a telegram from the Nanjing National Government, asking us to continue expanding our victory without angering Japan."

Mayor Yuan has fought with his subordinates too many times, so he naturally knows what these people are thinking. If he escalates the matter of Li Shaoyi today, the original topic will be immediately forgotten. Mayor Yuan has always been dissatisfied with this autonomous government. Now that he finally has a chance to resolve it, he certainly cannot let these people muddy the waters.

"Mayor, haven't we mentioned this before? Nanjing only assigns us tasks but doesn't offer any help. We can't get anything done. This is their military business. The autonomous government has the support of the Japanese. We can't convince them with just words."

Deputy Mayor Sun immediately stood up. As the leader of the pro-Japanese faction in the city government, he certainly would not sit there. If even he sat there, then I'm afraid others would not work at all.

When this issue was discussed in the past, Vice Mayor Sun brought up this issue, and Mayor Yuan didn't know how to resolve it, so he just shelved it. But today the issue is different.

"Deputy Mayor Sun has a point, but that's all in the past. The Executive Yuan of the Nanjing Nationalist Government has already issued an order that matters concerning the puppet autonomous government in eastern Peking will be fully handled by the Peking Municipal Government, with a deadline to submit an action plan."

After Mayor Yuan finished speaking, Secretary Wang Shuping immediately placed Jinling's order in front of these people. In the past, Jinling didn't even dare to issue such an order, but now it was obvious that he wanted to put pressure on the Beiping Municipal Government. If anyone still stood up to oppose it, especially openly, Jinling would probably find someone to take action.

"Then I wonder what the mayor thinks we should do?"

Deputy Mayor Sun said with a gloomy expression.

"We need to ask our anti-Japanese hero, Commissioner Li, what do you think should be done about this matter?"

Mayor Yuan said very kindly, Li Shaoyi knew where he was useful. Mayor Yuan used to fight alone. Look at the people around him with worried faces. Are you worried about the Chinese or the Japanese?

"Mayor, this is very easy to handle. According to the information my subordinates have received, the autonomous government is nothing more than a hollow shell. All the armed forces combined don't even number that many people. With my subordinates' current capabilities, if there is sufficient military funding, the autonomous government will surely vanish in less than two months."

After Li Shaoyi said this, everyone present was shocked. After all, they were like newborn calves that were not afraid of tigers. The 29th Army was no pushover. Do you think they were afraid of the autonomous government troops? They were definitely afraid of the Japanese.

After the establishment of this autonomous government, it divided Peking and Tianjin into two parts, leaving the 29th Army unable to take care of both ends. Do you think they didn't want to destroy this autonomous government? But why did the autonomous government continue to exist? Wasn't it because of the support of the Japanese?

"Don't make everything about war. Have you considered what the outcome will be after the war? We signed several agreements in Peking, all after clashes with the Japanese. We lost one right after another. You may have won here, but our overall national strength cannot compare to Japan's. If Japan threatens war, won't we be forced to sign another unequal treaty?"

An old man with a white beard stood up and spoke. He sounded passionate, as if he was talking about something patriotic, but he was speaking to the Japanese.

No one knew the real situation of that era better than Li Shaoyi. The Japanese were not prepared for an all-out war at all. They were just taking advantage of the weakness of the Nationalist government to continuously plunder their interests. If they really confronted him, the only ones who would suffer would be the Japanese.

"This is Mr. Liu Boguang, the Vice President of the Senate."

Wang Manli knew that Li Shaoyi didn't know this person, so she whispered to him from behind that most of the seats in the third row were occupied by secretaries.

"So it's Vice Senate President Liu. I've heard of you. When you were young, you spent a lot of Qing Dynasty money to study in Japan. But after you got there, you broke off relations with your wife and married a Japanese woman. There are many people who don't want their wives, but the problem is that you don't even want your children. You call yourself a scholar, but you've read so much that you've become a fool."

After all, Li Shaoyi grew up in Peking and accepted the memories of this body. What Mr. Liu Boguang did was known to the common people, but because he was the vice-president of the senate, no one dared to say it directly. Now that Li Shaoyi said it in front of so many people, Mr. Liu was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe, but he didn't know how to refute Li Shaoyi.

Mayor Yuan sat in the front and smiled secretly. He had long been dissatisfied with people like Liu Boguang, but he could not be as free and easy as Li Shaoyi.

"Alright, alright, Deputy Mayor Sun, you don't have to keep giving the others the eye signals. They must have seen your eyes, but they don't dare to stand up. You should stand up yourself. They are all afraid that I will play tricks on them."

Li Shaoyi stood up and took a step forward to the first row. He gently patted the shoulder of the guy in front of him. The guy immediately dodged as if there was a thorn under his butt. Li Shaoyi then sat in this position. Opposite him sat Deputy Mayor Sun.

Deputy Mayor Sun did indeed encourage others to stand up and refute Li Shaoyi, but those people looked at Liu Boguang's outcome and then thought about the photo in the newspaper that day. Aren't we all born and raised by our parents? Aren't we afraid of death?

Take Deputy Senate President Liu for example. After what happened today, he will definitely not be able to continue working here in the future. Without the title of Deputy Chief of Staff, do you really think the Japanese still need him?

He is an old man with a shabby face, but the only reason he can still cheer for the Japanese at such meetings is because if he loses this position, the Japanese will be very realistic.
