New Warlords 1909

Hua Fei resisted all opinions.With absolute toughness and arbitrariness, he made the decision to send troops to Europe.Although many staff officers and senior officers within the command did not say so.But Hua Fei knew.They may think so in their hearts.In case of loss of troops.You will find that we are right when we are not thankful.In the future, our right to speak in the military conference will also attract more attention from you.

But the final result of the First World War and the huge benefits of participating in the war.This greatly increased the power of the Jagged Faction in the army.Especially naval officers.It was almost clamoring to launch another large-scale war by taking the opportunity of the Russian Civil War. 'The war interest was gone.No wonder the officers of the Ministry of the Sea were excited.Originally, the Wehrmacht Navy was the weakest of the three services.In addition to the so-called First Fleet, there are three or four light cruisers with a displacement of only a few thousand tons.There are not many weapons and equipment that can be used.

The only battlecruiser with a water volume of more than 2 tons obtained from Japan.I also reluctantly let go of the insistence of the commander in China | leased to the United Kingdom.Later, Jiangnan Shipyard built an aircraft carrier with a displacement of nearly [-] tons.Although the officers of the navy do not have much deep understanding and experience of the combat effectiveness of the aircraft carrier, this is still a ship after all.But the result.Still sold to the British.The British bought the warship less than a month later.The war is all over.to this end.Many naval officers also mentioned that Huafei might as well take back the aircraft carrier anyway, not only did the British not pay off the money.You owe us a lot of debt.

Of course Hua Fei ignored these complaining officers'|after learning the specific terms of the Versailles Peace Treaty.The kind of surprise and surprise can't be expressed in words. 2 Derfflinger-class battlecruisers have a maximum displacement of more than 3 tons.Neither armor.The firepower and speed are comparable to the Kirishima.most importantly. 2 As soon as the warship arrives in Shanghai.Just a little fix.You can go into battle.

This has already made a group of sea leaders overjoyed.What surprised them even more.There were also four more powerful follow-up ships to the Derfflinger class.Mackensen-class battlecruiser.

Mackensen not only drains bigger.faster.Longer range.More firepower.Most importantly.These warships are all unfinished brand new warships.There are as many as four ships.Although the warships bought back were not equipped with any weapons.But with technical assistance from the Germans.Everyone believes in the military factories in the Autonomous Region.It must be possible to process 14 warship main guns.

Of course.And if that's enough for a dry navy senior admiral - rejoice.Get drunk for three days and three nights.Then the four York-class battleships in Hua Fei's secret ten-year development plan for naval equipment.It made everyone cry even more.Embracing and sighing!

Commander Hua finally began to re-launch the navy.The Autonomous Region is finally rich.We are about to start building our own Chinese battleships.Our Chinese Navy.The dream of owning a battleship is finally about to become a reality.Although it is a preliminary plan for ten-year armament development.but.Everyone has seen hope.Because everyone understands.Battleships are different from destroyers of the kiloton class.Even an industrial powerhouse like Britain and Germany.A battleship doesn't last around three years.Don't even think about building it.Therefore, based on the current shipbuilding and industrial capabilities of the autonomous region.Complete four battleships in ten years.Already considered fast.To know.The current four major shipyards in the precinct.It's not just about building a few large warships.Others such as destroyers.light cruiser.aircraft carrier.submarine.torpedo boat.Gunboats and more.But they all need to occupy the berth.

So about sending troops to Russia.The voice of participating in the Russian Civil War has flooded the army since Nicholas II came to Shanghai.Even many low-level military officers think so.The reason why Hua Commander accepted Nicholas II.In order to participate in the Russian Civil War.

But Hua Fei understood the outcome of the historical Russian Civil War.If you stand on the side of the White Army.It will undoubtedly take great risks.But if you stand on the side of the Red Army.A mighty Soviet empire.It is obviously also a powerful threat to China.In Hua Fei's view.The Russian Civil War can last for a long time.Consume Russia's national power.And eventually formed a split situation.That is the best policy.But to achieve this superior policy.Soldiers are a must.Hua Fei was the only one who hesitated.It is how many troops need to be dispatched.Participated heavily in the Russian Civil War.If there is an unfavorable situation in the Russian Civil War.Then it is obviously even worse for China.

Although the strength of the National Defense Forces is the strongest among the Chinese domestic military factions, neither the Beiyang military department nor the Nanyang Revolutionary Party military department is an opponent to be underestimated.And the strength of the warlords in each province.There are still some.Once the Russian Civil War consumed too much economic and military power.For the autonomous region.Obviously also extremely unfavorable.

Therefore, Hubei can be successfully won.There are many reasons.Not only the neighboring autonomous region of Hubei.A strong military is obviously a huge deterrent to the North's armed forces.There are also Chongqing National Defense Forces and several defense forces stationed in Wuhan

The comprehensive division of the strategic posture.

In addition, Shi Xingchuan, the former commander of the First Division of the Hubei Army stationed in Jingzhou.Li Tiancai, commander of the Ninth Division stationed in Xiangyang.Lu Jinshan, commander of the [-]rd Brigade under Wang Zhanyuan's department, and other armed soldiers from Hubei.Both responded to the peace initiative of the Wehrmacht in time and declared their willingness to submit to the leadership of the Vice President.Support the Nanjing Provisional Central Committee.

besides.The espionage division of the First Branch of the Secret Investigation Bureau is not idle.Ever since Qin Man was severely policed ​​by Hua Fei, the National Defense Forces have also carried out strict purges.

Someone may be full of resentment because of dissatisfaction.But the smart Qin Manzai arrived at Hua Fei after he restarted it.It seems to have learned a lot.More and more mature.He began to devote himself wholeheartedly to his own work.Severed the personal close contact with the old man of the Hua family and the senior generals of the National Defense Forces.From the original relatively high-profile to extremely low-key and even a year later.His name and picture were also missing from news reports.

As the first bureau of the Secret Security Bureau, Qin Man spent a lot of energy and painstaking efforts. Most of these efforts were invested in Hubei and Shandong.Many spies belonging to the autonomous region instigated officers in the armies of the two provinces.And the low-level officers of the independent army of the two provinces.There are many nails that have been driven in by the confidential military intelligence bureau, and Sun Chuanfang, an important confidant under Wang Zhan's command who Hua Fei has focused on, has been controlled by the confidential military intelligence bureau with great effort.

That's why Hubei will be forced to enter.It was successfully brought under the Wehrmacht's sphere of influence with little resistance.at this time.There are two National Defense Forces stationed in Qingdao, Shandong.Zheng Shinai, the current governor of Shandong, is a native of Eight Towns in Hefei.Because of the origin with Hua Fei from the same hometown.So although he originally belonged to the Anhui family.But it is very close to Hua Fei's national defense force.It was short of openly taking refuge in the autonomous region.

Later, after the Shandong War.Fei although Shandong withdrew its troops.But the business in Shandong never let go.The inside should be combined with the outside.Coupled with the huge prestige and influence of the National Defense Forces in the east.As long as Hua Fei is willing.It is not a problem at all to enter Shandong peacefully.

Now Hua Fei declared himself the central government of the time.The original Congress.Call on all Democrats to gather in Nanjing.Discuss the matter of universal suffrage.Take the political initiative.At least let the revolutionaries in the south.There is no excuse for attacking the Wehrmacht.Otherwise'|even if it completely destroys one's own political views and reputation.If Hua Fei is again attacked by public opinion.on the political map.I'm afraid it will be difficult to have a place for them to survive.

And when Hua Fei announced the establishment of the Lin Central Committee.The most violent response was from the Beiyang Military Department.After several joint meetings between the Office of Change and the Command of the National Defense Forces.A resolution to unify the country was put on the table.

on the resolution.Most of the people unanimously agreed to use force and peace to complete the de facto unification as soon as possible.In the name of the center.Implement a series of decrees to strengthen the centralization of power.If you obey the orders of the central.Then weaken your financial power.Weaken or even gradually separate military power.Finally complete the de facto elimination of the enemy army | endanger the central authority.The source of endangering the unity of the country.If you do not abide by the implementation of a series of new policies of the central government.Then declare you a rebel.Betray the country.Not only forcibly eradicated by force.You will be judged afterwards.

to say.Such a two-pronged policy.It is also an important reason why Hubei can be stationed peacefully.Wang Zhanyuan, the governor of Hubei, knew it well.Take the military power of the lake.Even the support of the Beiyang Army.Absolutely can't hold on | The defense army's attack.The Beiyang armies can retreat to their base camp after failure.Where did Wang Zhanyuan withdraw?The wealth he has accumulated over the years.Not only will all be confiscated after failure.I will also stand trial for treason and war crimes.Left under the balance.This is Wang Zhanyuan giving up resistance.An important reason to compromise with Hua Fei.

But Wang Zhanyuan.Even Zheng Shiqi, the mountain governor, can stand in the defense army's camp.But other Beiyang military departments are not so easy to subdue.After all, it is a series of bills to strengthen the central authority.Damage to the interests of warlords everywhere.Definitely a huge touch.

On the 1919th day of 100, Hua Fei finally made up his mind to make a gamble.Since anyway.Nor can it coexist with Soviet Russia. | so whether they succeed or fail.For Hua Fei.These are all real threats that need to be confronted directly.

And carry out the domestic unification war.Fei is very confident about this.If you don't consider the civil war, it will bring too much harm to the people of the country.If it is not considered that the civil war will affect the huge development opportunities of the autonomous region's industry.If it is not for the reasons of Japan.Hua Fei should have started de facto unified action long ago.It is clearly realistic to count on completeness and unity.

And now.The First World War is over.The high-speed industry in the autonomous region will soon generate huge surplus capacity.Restored industrial production capacity abroad.There will also be shocks to Autonomy and the rest of China soon.So start a new war now.Not just a chance for reunification.It is also an opportunity for the healthy and rapid development of the heavy industry in the autonomous region.

In addition, Japan sent troops to Russia.The countries of the former Allies also sent troops to Japan.Good relations established with various countries during World War I.All this created a good opportunity for Hua Fei to complete the unification of China by force.As for the harm to the people caused by the war.that is unavoidable no matter what

A decree called the National Extraordinary Pardon decree by way of telegrams and newspapers.Shock appeared in everyone's eyes.On the 100th, this special peace amnesty decree was announced by Zhonghua Fei in the name of the interim Central President.Amnesty for all political prisoners before today.Not in the past.For economic crimes and war military crimes involving officials.Can be dealt with leniently.

If the death penalty has been committed in the past, the death penalty can be exempted.Imprisonment may be commuted.Economic offenders can be exempted from punishment after leaving the prison.War criminals are exempt from prosecution in military courts.The provisions of this Act apply to both sentenced and incarcerated prisoners.Especially serious for crimes.Affect particularly bad things.May apply to the Supreme Court.And approved by the President himself.Lift the special amnesty.

There are many more detailed provisions in the Peace Amnesty Act.The main area covered is the amnesty of political and war criminals.And the definition of the nature of those warlords who occupy a large amount of capital property everywhere.So-called political prisoners.Even before today.Southern revolutionaries who fought against the Beiyang central government.An imperial figure who once followed Yuan Shikai.The Beiyang army that once attacked the autonomous region.And after the announcement of the Provisional Central Committee.Those who criticized the Provisional Central Committee.It is mainly bounded by this pardon.Gather some people who are not firm in their positions.Attack some stubborn hostile forces.

.The autonomous region's strict regulations on war criminals will also make the warlords of the provinces.Even if there is a civil war.It will also punish behaviors that disturb or even kill ordinary people.to constrain.Because of that behavior.is one of the greatest war crimes.is a crime that is definitely not included in any amnesty clause statute

Regulations were also made on the large amount of property occupied by warlords in various places.As long as your property is not usurped.As long as I didn't tell you afterwards.As long as it is not public property that is stolen.Then acknowledge your legitimacy.Pass this amnesty decree.Hua Fei officially announced to all Chinese people the position of the central government on a series of sensitive issues.let bygones be bygones.The principle of future punishment.It also shows the strength of Hua Fei, the interim president

After the amnesty was issued.The interim central government officially issued diplomatic notes to all countries.It is hoped that all countries will recognize the new interim central government.Cut off diplomatic relations with the Beiyang government in Beijing.at the same time.The interim Central Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced to the press.An agreement was signed between Tsar Nicholas II and the Russian Provisional Government.A total of more than [-] people from the Sixth Army and the Seventh Army of the National Defense Forces will be sent to Russia to form an advance army.Mainly to the Xing'an Mountains outside the Russian Far East.And Waixing'an Mountains as the rear base.Stay with a division.Other forces provide limited support for the Russia-China and Russia-West wars.

Send troops to Russia?Britain, France and other countries responded quickly.Great welcome.Nicholas II was also rarely singing in public.Laughed heartily.But except for the United States.Countries are facing the central situation of Hua Fei.The response was obviously not fast enough.Also very sluggish.

The shock caused by this news in China is obviously greater than that in foreign countries. Could it be that Hua Lengzi is so arrogant?On the one hand, a provisional central government was publicly established.A full-blown civil war is about to begin.On the one hand, it sent as many as two armies to Russia.Aren't you afraid that the Wehrmacht will not have enough military strength?Does he treat as many as forty divisions of the Beiyang Army Department as nothing?

Of course, Hua Fei would not underestimate the combat effectiveness of the Beiyang Army. After dispatching two armies and six divisions, Hua Fei followed the mobilization case.Quickly call on the reserve and conscript youths in the autonomous region.In a short period of time, the temporary establishment of five armies reaching fifteen divisions was expanded.These five corps are composed of civilian and recruit officers as well as reserve officers and wounded veterans.The main task is to be responsible for the security of the autonomous region.These new troops may be less effective.Not much attack power.But defend the city and defend the position.Still can one.

so.Most of the [-] reorganized divisions of the other eight armies of the National Defense Forces can be put into the front-line battlefield.Greatly enhances the power and lethality of fists.Expand the attack surface and accelerate the attack speed.

certainly.Hua Fei will not break with the entire Beiyang system, and the Beiyang system is divided into the Anhui system and the direct line.The department is headed by Duan Rui.The direct line is headed by Feng Guozhang and Cao Cao.The Anhui Department originally tried to win over Hua Fei as a fellow countryman.But Hua was unmoved.Not only did Duan Rui not get much benefit.On the contrary, many Anhui faction forces have secretly connected with Hua Fei after seeing the general trend clearly.So this time we declared war on the Beiyang Army.The main target is the Zhili faction.After the Zhili faction lost the territory in Hubei, only a few territories such as Zhili remained.The strength is greatly weakened.The military is not strong either.

Even if it is still influenced by Duan Rui.But I believe that many officers will obey Shangfeng's order and violate it, which will really make them fight with the defense army.They will absolutely not want to.In addition, Zhang Zuolin, a Feng faction warlord, rose in the Northeast.But although Zhang Lin is very dependent on the Japanese.But now with the growth of his power, the Japanese have begun to be jealous of him. Zhang Zuolin is also a little wary of the Japanese.In addition, he had a good cooperation with Hua Fei at the beginning.Fei even secretly helped his rise.Therefore, it is Zhang Zuolin who treats Hua Fei.Absolutely not much hostility.This has been since Hua Fei announced the establishment of a temporary central government.Zhang Zuolin of the Feng family quickly turned on the power and became neutral. It can be seen that he meant to sit on the sidelines.And the Wehrmacht Army.Seventh Army enters Russia.Borrow the Northeast.Zhang Zuolin opened the door to convenience.It's quite the meaning of getting along with Hua Fei.

In addition to the influence of the direct warlords.And Yan Xishan from Shanxi.After several years of policies to protect the environment and the people.The military strength has soared.The strength cannot be underestimated.But Yan Xishan sits in Shanxi.For the time being, there is no strength to manage the Central Plains.The only thing Hua Fei needs to worry about.It's just the factions of warlords.Will there be an alliance with the direct line.If both parties reconcile the alliance. 1 The addition of Xishan.It will put great pressure on Huafei's National Defense Forces.

Moreover, it is impossible for Hua Fei to press all the National Defense Forces into the north.Bi Nanfang's Tang Jiyao and Lu Rongting and others.Also had a feud with the Wehrmacht.Although they took advantage of the momentum created by the revolutionaries.But who knows if they will stab Hua Fei in the back?

Hua Fei began to dispatch troops and generals in the autonomous region.Hubei needs at least one more army of National Defense Forces.Because Hubei's strategic position is very dangerous.It is directly related to the overall situation of unification by force.Also in Hefei.Wuhu.Ma On Shan.Nanjing.In Shanghai and other places, troops ranging from one brigade to one division were stationed.Prevent accidents.Others gathered nearly twenty divisions.from Hubei.Huibei.Shandong surrounds Henan on three sides.Forcing Henan governor and governor Zhao to accept the peace decree of the interim central government.

This posture has been very clearly accepted.Wehrmacht marched peacefully.Adapted Yujun.do not accept.Forcibly garrison or destroy the Henan army.Zhao|Originally, he led an attack on Hua Fei.A few years ago.Unfortunately, he was defeated and captured.But because Fei is under the general public opinion.Still released Zhao | and other captured senior officers.Zhao|Before attacking Hua Fei.It retains a lot of strength.In addition, he later attached himself to Yuan Shikai and proclaimed himself emperor.new rise.The strength has greatly increased.Occupy the land of Henan Province.Dominating the Central Plains.But with the fall of Yuan Shikai.The Beiyang Army split.The most powerful warlord force in the whole of China is Hua Fei's national defense force.Zhao|Shen Hua Fei's subordinates are defeated.Naturally, he has a first-hand experience of the combat effectiveness of the National Defense Forces.At the beginning, it was still extremely weak | The commanding army could wipe out thousands of them.No one can fight in northern Anhui.Today, the national defense force has been tempered by countless wars.Not only defeated Japan in Shandong, but also played against the Germans in the European War.

Both the quantity and quality of soldiers.Or weapons.None of them could be resisted by Zhao's Yu army.Originally, Zhao | has always pursued the same neutral policy as Yan Xishan.But now.The army of the National Defense Forces is overwhelming.He really needs to make a choice.

Start a civil war.But the civil war is really hard to fight~~ hey~~ it can't be too simple.It can't be too difficult.Injury.Hey~~-~

After the Defense Forces stationed in Hubei, the Japanese reaction was the most intense.The large arsenals Hanyang Arsenal and Hanyang Iron Works were both taken over by the National Defense Forces in the name of national property.Forget about the arsenal, Hanyang Iron Works, but the Japanese spent a lot of thought and invested a lot of capital, and signed a long-term low-price supply product contract with Hanyang Iron Works.Although the final execution of these contracts was affected by the war with the autonomous region, after the war, the Japanese's economic espionage infiltration into Hubei became more violent.

For the National Defense Forces, stationing in Hubei not only gained a geostrategic advantage, but also gained Hanyang Iron Works, the largest iron and steel complex in the late Qing Dynasty.Now, with the capital injection and technical support from the autonomous region, and a large number of European skilled workers returning to Chinese labor, this is another huge opportunity for the development of Hanyang Iron Works.

The Hanyang Arsenal, a famous arsenal built in the late Qing Dynasty, will greatly increase the military industry production capacity of the National Defense Forces after it is controlled by the National Defense Forces.In addition, Hubei is also rich in oil resources. The famous Jianghan Oilfield is located in Qianjiang, Hubei.

However, these practical benefits are far less shocking than Hua Fei's occupation of Hubei and cutting off the connection between the North and the South.It can be said that the occupation of Hubei has advantages and disadvantages.Lishi can divide the north and the south, divide and attack.Going south, you can go through Hunan, Guangdong, Guangxi, and other provinces.Going north can attack Henan, Shanshan, and deter Zhili.

Of course, it is based on absolute strength.If the strategy of dividing and attacking cannot be realized, then it may face a situation where the north and the south are attacking.If you can't resist, you can only withdraw from Hubei and stick to the existing territory of the autonomous region.In that case, it would be a huge blow to the national defense forces of the autonomous region.

After the provisional central government announced the establishment of the National Defense Forces, it entered Hubei almost without bloodshed.For a period of time, it did set off a huge shock and repercussions in China.Of course, the southern revolutionaries strongly opposed Hua Fei's act of armed unification and the establishment of a separate central government.Many revolutionaries denounced it publicly in the newspapers. Butcher Hua finally revealed his true colors. His actions of setting up a provisional central government, undermining the constitution, and serving as the provisional president are naked dictatorships, sabotage of democracy, and imitation of Yuan Shikai. The prelude to the monarchy.

Although both the North and the South condemned it, it was limited to those radical elements.The powerful figures who are really in charge of the military power appear extremely calm.The small warlords in Sichuan and other places were even more silent.It is very realistic to be in a neutral attitude, intending to sit on the sidelines, and will not easily fall to any camp.

Although the National Defense Forces stationed in Hubei peacefully, just after the reorganization of the Hubei Army, riots of various sizes occurred in various places in Hubei. Most of them were because the National Defense Forces stationed in Hubei was too sudden, which made many forces unable to react.There are also two sides, the North and the South, who took the opportunity to disturb Hubei, trying to slow down the pace of the National Defense Forces and make them step up their plans to prepare for war.

Although the scale of the armed riots in Hubei was small, they were quite numerous.Many former Hubei armed forces and local gentry armed forces captured the county seat, declared independence or announced joining the central government in Beijing, refused to obey the transfer order of the Nanjing interim central government, withheld all taxes, imprisoned or monitored all local government supervision observers dispatched by Nanjing.

The National Defense Forces immediately took action. In addition to having a sufficient number of troops stationed in major towns, the corps with the Fourth Army and the Fifth Army as the main force will clean up the armed forces in each place one by one according to the regiment level, without mercy.

The rapid development of the National Defense Forces.It played an unimaginable miraculous effect in this battle.

The newly developed Z-33 high-speed high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft has played an inestimable role in calming chaos in the interior of Hubei Province.With the intelligence reconnaissance of this kind of reconnaissance aircraft, the National Defense Forces can take a step ahead in intelligence reconnaissance.So as to suppress the enemy in tactical deployment.Occupied various initiatives.

The Z-33 high-speed high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft was established by Zhanlong Aircraft Factory and joined Wang Zhu.The wisdom of the new generation of young technical designers such as Bayu Zao Fuyuan.It integrates the experience and technology of the autonomous region's aviation industry for many years.Absorbed during World War I.The first brand-new model of the advanced technology of various countries with rapid development.
