New Warlords 1909

"But the airborne division is assigned directly to the general headquarters, and we have no right to transfer."

"Then call the commander-in-chief and tell the airborne division to prepare for combat!"

"Commander, it's good that you want to interrupt the connection between Xinmin and Shenyang, but please understand, Commander, that we don't have an advantage at the moment. In this way, the Japanese army in Xinmin will definitely attack the partial division. With this strength alone, I'm afraid it will be difficult. Get things done." Deputy Commander Xu Shuzheng's attitude is fairly restrained, but there is already dissatisfaction in his words, "If you spend all this reserve force, once a dangerous situation occurs and affects the overall situation, you Cai Songpo may not be able to bear this responsibility."

Cai Jing seemed to have gotten used to Xu Shuzheng's habits, and he simply said, "I know it is difficult to use four divisions to break into the gap between Xinmin and Shenyang. But even if we can't break through, it will definitely interfere with the Japanese army and let our The frontal resistance is reduced. Our army can advance so quickly and continue to compress the encirclement of Xinmin. As long as I attack the waist between Xinmin and Shenyang, then no matter what the Japanese commander plans, he will not tolerate me on his chest. Drive a nail in before. Anyway, it's always good to distract them!"

Is it just a distraction?Cai Jing knew that although he sounded indifferent on the surface of the huge casualty report, he was.This is not only Hua Fei's direct army, but also the country's elite army.Although Cai Feng joined the National Defense Force not long ago, he understands that as long as this army exists on Chinese soil, China's humiliating history of letting others invade will never repeat itself.These are some excellent sons and daughters of China.Although he had to, as the general, Cai Guo always hoped that he could use some actions to expose the Japanese army's flaws, so that he could take advantage of the situation.

"Report!" The guards rushed in from the door, and with just a glance, Cai Feng had already seen the deep night outside and the sky of the battlefield full of flames.He raised his hand and looked at his watch, it was exactly nine o'clock.It had been nine hours since the general offensive started, but the war situation did not come to an end as Cai Feng expected.

"Report. The first army sent an urgent message. The Japanese army in Shenyang City launched a poison gas campaign and fired hundreds of gas bombs at our position. The siege was blocked. Temporarily stalled!"

"What!" Cai Leng shouted.The entire headquarters was also shocked, and even Xu Shuzheng, who was known for his arrogance, showed a horrified expression.

Poison gas warfare is no stranger to everyone present. As early as World War I, the French were the first to use tear gas, and the Germans used armor-containing gas in a Polish town on the Russian border in January. Basic oxygen chemical shell attack.The first large-scale use of chemical weapons was in April of the old year. In the second battle of Ypres, Germany used chlorine gas to attack the coalition forces of France, Canada and Algeria.After that, the two militaries used each other and developed new types of poisonous gases, among which mustard gas, phosgene, and chlorine gas were the main ones. It is estimated that at least ten tons were used in the war.According to official figures, non-fatal casualties caused by chemical warfare agents in the First World War were about [-] million people, and at least [-] people died.

Strictly speaking, the Chinese were the unfortunate first victims of the poison gas war in history.On July [-], [-], the Eight-Power Allied Forces suffered setbacks during the invasion and became angry from embarrassment. They fired several shells at the Wuwei Zuo Junfu camp stationed in Chenjiagou and Xiaoshulin in Tianjin. The shells burst and green smoke Diffuse, those who are in it will die.The body of the deceased was uninjured and had a khaki color.

The artillery shells used by the Eight-Power Allied Forces at that time.It is the notorious gas bomb in later generations.

As a squadron that participated in World War I.Moreover, Hua Fei is always ignorant of chemical weapons, nuclear weapons, and biological weapons, the three world-renowned weapons of mass destruction.However, it is limited to the great aversion to chemical weapons in various countries.It is even a huge social and moral condemnation. Although China has conducted in-depth research on chemical weapons after the war, no one in such a difficult battle as the Northeast War has ever thought of using chemical weapons.First of all, this kind of weapon is too inhumane. It will not only cause damage to soldiers on the battlefield, but also cause indiscriminate damage to all living things within the range of influence due to its uncontrollable killing. It will make living beings feel miserable, life is worse than death, and destroy the environment on which human beings depend for survival.

Therefore, chemical weapons are also called the devil's tears by the world, which is very vivid.

How to put it this way, this is also fighting on the territory of one's own country, not to mention the use of chemical weapons, even when many staff officers are making plans, even radical figures like Li Yue dare not propose the use of such weapons at all.

However, now that the Japanese are under tremendous pressure on Shenyang's defense, they are actually against

"When did the National Defense Forces use chemical weapons? When did they start developing chemical weapons? When did they ship these weapons to China? Why didn't the intelligence agencies have any news?

The entire headquarters was buzzing.Looking at the expressions of all the generals, they all gritted their teeth, wishing to tear the Japanese in Shenyang City into pieces, and ravage them tens of thousands of times, but they still couldn't let go of their hatred!

"Does our Wehrmacht have chemical bombs!"

It wasn't long before Cai Ji joined the National Defense Forces. Although he was already a high-ranking commander, he really didn't know about such things.

"Yes!" It was Yu Chengping who spoke. As a very old man in the national defense force, Yu Chengping was the first member of Hua Fei's staff team.Now he is Cai Feng's chief of staff of the East Route Army. Although he is nominally assisting Cai Wei in command, he is actually one of the three minds of the army.And because of Yu Chengping's seniority in the army, his power is not even worse than that of Cai Ji, Xu Shuzheng and others.

If the words of the talented Xu Shuzheng were spoken by Yu Chengping, I am afraid that even Cai Jing would think carefully and dare not give orders on the premise of reaching a consensus.Although Yu Chengping has no right to finally refute Cai Ji's order, Cai Feng is not a fledgling kid after all.He can offend Xu Shuzheng.But he must not have a deadlock with these old men of the Wehrmacht.Otherwise, even if he gained Hua Fei's trust again, he would definitely feel uncomfortable in the army.

Cai Feng is not an idealist, he clearly understands this.If he wanted to stay in the Wehrmacht, and if he wanted to play a bigger role in the rest of his life, he had to properly handle his position in the Wehrmacht and his relationship with the veterans of the Wehrmacht.

So Yu Chengping said yes.Cai Jing was not surprised. On the contrary, if Yu Chengping turned pale with shock, or faltered, then Cai Jing would be disappointed in his heart.Of course, he also knows this kind of disappointment, and he will never encounter it.If this kind of disappointment will be produced.Then Hua Fei would never come to where he is today.

"As early as World War I, the commander-in-chief paid attention to poison gas and secretly launched the National Security Plan [-]. I think many people present have heard of this plan [-], but those who know the details are probably There are not many. In the National Security No. [-] Plan, there are related topics such as the development of chemical weapons and biological weapons, and small defenses.

"After years of research and development, our military's chemical weapons currently have several means of attack. The first is mustard gas, which is known as the king of poisonous gases, the second is the Lewis gas developed by the Americans, and other methods such as phosgene, Poisonous gases such as diphosgene. The main means of attack are shelling and aerial bomb attack!"

"Moreover, our army has long developed a device to prevent and control chemical weapons, and it has been equipped with our national defense forces who went to Europe to participate in the war. It has also been exported in large quantities. It is just because of this decisive battle that we ignored the poison gas attack of the Japanese army, although each army has one. An anti-gas safety company, but compared to the tens of thousands of people in an army, such an anti-gas company is obviously unable to do what it wants. To mobilize anti-gas equipment from the rear, not only do we not have such a huge inventory, but the time alone does not allow us to do so

! ”

"I'm asking about our gas bomb, can it be called immediately?"

Yu Chengping glanced at Cai Pin in surprise. Although he is a veteran and staunch hero of the National Defense Forces, little Yu Chengping keeps calm and keeps a low profile on weekdays.He understood Hua Fei's intentions very well, and he was also very clear.Although Hua Fei is a bit defensive, but when it comes to some issues of principle, he does not allow personal affection at all.this point.No one knows the veterans of the Wehrmacht!

So Yu Chengping cooperated with Cai Feng and others all the way, but he had no partner, and there was nothing unpleasant about it.Hearing Cai Qian's inquiry, Yu Chengping subconsciously understood what Cai Guo wanted to do.He is not as radical as Bai Kaijun. His conservative character determines his character, but he hesitated for a while before saying, "If you want to use poison gas shells, I'm afraid you have to go to several military bases in the autonomous region. If you want to use aerial bombs, I'm afraid There are quite a few reserves in Texas!"

Yu Chengping and others are used to talking about the autonomous region. Although the political system of the autonomous region has long been abolished, everyone can understand what it means.Dezhou's aerial bombs, of course, are the original Texas Beiyang Machinery Manufacturing Bureau.

The predecessor of Dezhou Beiyang Machinery Manufacturing Bureau was Tianjin Machinery Manufacturing Bureau, one of the earliest four major machinery manufacturing bureaus in China.When the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded, Tianjin Machinery Bureau was destroyed.Later, Yuan Shikai chose to rebuild the Beiyang Machinery Bureau in the southwest garden outside the city of Dezhou, which was later called Dezhou Beiyang Machinery Bureau.

The bureau originally mainly manufactured various bullets, and also produced chemical raw materials such as sulfuric acid and nitric acid for its own use, and semi-finished products such as smokeless medicine.The machinery and equipment of Dezhou Beiyang Machinery Manufacturing Bureau are all imported from Germany and the United Kingdom.Due to the high quality of the products, it is said that there has never been any "stinky fire" in the various bullets produced. Therefore, it has quite a reputation.

The National Defense Forces and the Beiyang Army once fought a big battle in Texas.Later, after the National Defense Forces occupied Dezhou, the Beiyang Manufacturing Bureau was not abandoned. Instead, it continued to invest large-scale funds, carried out a series of modernization, and made full use of it.Today's Texas Manufacturing Bureau has been renamed the Texas Ammunition Arsenal.Specializes in the production of rifle bullets, machine gun bullets, pistol bullets, aviation machine gun bullets, artillery shells, and even landmines, grenades, aerial bombs and other ammunition used by the National Defense Forces.Along with Jiangxi's bullet factory and Hefei's weapons and ammunition factory, it ranks among the country's three major ammunition production bases, which shows its importance in the military's national defense system.

So there is no reason to be puzzled by the mention of Dezhou Xiaocai Feng.It's just that the commander would never have thought of such a terrifying weapon.It is actually produced in Texas and stored locally.If there is an accident, the small consequences are unimaginable!It seems that after the battle is over, it is necessary to give advice to the commander-in-chief.

"Order, all, send a bomber to my warehouse to secretly mount poison and aerial bombs, and wait for orders at any time!

With Cai Cong's order, the entire headquarters became extremely quiet. Everyone stopped their work and looked at Cai Crocodile blankly. They seemed to guess what Cai Feng was going to do. However, could they really do this? ?

"What? Didn't you hear my order?" Cai Pin yelled at the adjutant.

"Commander Cai!" Xu Shuzheng couldn't bear it anymore, and said angrily, "Do you know what you are doing? Who gave you the right to issue this order. As a commander, you and I don't even know if we have the right to use this kind of weapon , so it must be reported to the headquarters, and without approval, such weapons must not be used!"

"I am the commander of the army, the deputy commander of the Shenyang campaign, don't you have the right to use a few aerial bombs?" Cai Feng knew very well that it was not that he didn't have the right, but he didn't know who could have this right. , Hua Fei?So what does this right mean to Hua Fei?Even if he knows the benefits of doing so.Can he stake his colossal popularity and internationally shining moral image?

And even if Hua Fei is willing to make a bet, this matter will inevitably happen and will be discussed by the headquarters.After going back and forth, it is unknown how many soldiers outside Shenyang City will be buried in the siege battle.

In war, what is robbed is time.And time.For many fighters.It is life.

"This is an order. If there are any consequences arising from this, I, Cai Ji, will be solely responsible. After the bitter battle, the court-martial ruled that I was guilty, so I, Cai Feng, should be responsible for killing or scraping." Cai Ji pulled out his gun abruptly, He slammed it hard on the table. "But now, whoever dares to resist the order will not be forgiven by the military law!"

Cai Feng's adjutant looked at Yu Chengping in embarrassment.After all, this matter is no small matter. If you describe it as the war of later generations, then you can use small nuclear weapons to walk around.In the entire headquarters, Yu Chengping was the only one who could dissuade Cai Pin.

At this time, Cai Cong's eyes were also looking at Yu Chengping. When he mentioned the military court, Yu Chengping seemed to understand what Cai Feng was thinking.Hesitate for half a second.This conservative chief of staff who has experienced many wars.There was a trace of unbearable determination in his eyes. "Commander, you have to know that there are hundreds of thousands of our people in the city. Although many people were expelled before the war, according to simple estimates, there are at least 40 to [-] people and city residents. You are really small.

Of course, Cai Jing understood that it was impossible for only Japanese to be left in Shenyang City, and he knew better what it meant to throw poison gas bombs into a city surrounded by city walls.It means that the whole city will be reduced to death, city.Although the air force's bombing of Shenyang City inevitably resulted in accidental injuries, at least it could choose [-] purposeful bombing, gas bombs, and chemical weapons.They are indistinguishable from the enemy and are destructive weapons.

"This is war, this is the price we have to pay! Whether to sacrifice the people in the city or the soldiers who are fighting hard outside the city, this choice does not need to be considered at all!"

If Hua Fei was here, he would never make such a decision.But it is undeniable.Since ancient times, in any war, the people who die the most are always ordinary people.In Hua Fei's mission, the responsibility of soldiers is to protect the people and defend the country.If Hua Fei faced such a thing, although the huge temptation would attract him.But it is absolutely difficult for Hua Fei to let his rationality override Liang Yi.

It's just that Cai Jing is different, not that Cai Guo doesn't like utensils.It's just that in Cai Feng's dictionary, victory is overwhelming.The duty of the soldiers is to defeat the invaders and encircle the vast majority of the people for the sake of more people.If it was because of fear of accidental injury, then there was no need to attack Shenyang City at all.

In the depths of Cai Zhen's heart, even more so, after this battle, no matter how much you Hua Fei hates me, deep down in your heart, I'm afraid you have to thank me for keeping these large numbers of direct troops for you.And this is the basis for me, Cai Qiao, to be accommodated in the National Defense Force for a long time.A "butcher" who shows no mercy to the people probably won't pose any threat to your position as president.

As a veteran of the revolutionary army, Cai Jing is far superior to Hua Fei in terms of seniority.But things have changed, if the National Defense Force Hua Fei's status in China, I am afraid that even Sun Wen of the League will not be able to shake it.

However, as the decoration builder of the original Southern Army, Cai Jing, many veterans of the original Southern Army were retained during the reorganization.Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi, Huang Shaofa and others of the New Gui Army were all reused.Although Cai Cong admired Hua Fei's ability to employ people, it was undeniable that Hua Feiyue had no doubts about employing people like this.Cai Jing became more and more worried.Once someday.The external aggression is gone, and internal conflicts and differences arise. I am afraid that it will be the time for Hua Fei to start cleaning up the internal affairs.

So think about it for your own long-term future.Considering the future of the Southern Army, Cai Ji has already begun to plot his future.As long as Cai Pin does not pose a threat to Hua Fei's rights, I believe that with Hua Fei's measure, he can still accommodate his country's "hero."

Back then Cai Feng could bear it under Yuan Shikai's nose.And successfully escaped from the capital.Its means and city government are of course beyond the reach of ordinary people.Yu Chengping may not have seen Cai Ji's deep intentions, but Yu Chengping still understood the reason why Cai Feng did not report to the headquarters.Because if the order of the general headquarters is passed, it will probably be difficult to have results.Yu Chengping didn't dare to say that he knew the commander-in-chief very well, but on this matter, Yu Chengping didn't have to guess what the commander-in-chief's position would be.

Looking at the longing in Cai Jing's eyes, Yu Chengping said to Cai Feng's adjutant, "Go, pass on the order, and transfer some reliable personnel from the guard division, and carry the order to handle this matter in person. There should be no mistakes. Also, sign the order." Put my name on it. In addition, I am telling everyone at the scene! Little. Yu Chengping looked at everyone in the headquarters and said sharply, "This matter is classified as top secret and must not be disclosed to the outside world. If there is any violation, the Supreme military

The adjutant immediately saluted and was about to convey the order, Xu Shuzheng immediately shouted, "Stop!"

Yu Chengping, Cai Pin and the others thought that Xu Shuzheng would stop them, but before they could open their mouths, Xu Shuzheng sighed, "If God wants to respond to us because of this matter, add my name, Xu Shuzheng. After all, I'm the deputy commander."

Although Xu Shuzheng is crazy, he is not one of those crazy people who don't know the so-called.He has worked hard in the officialdom, and he has long developed the foundation of being cruel and merciless.In his opinion, compared with the dangers of officialdom, the use of poison gas bombs is insignificant.He had been working hard for Duan Qirui in the early years, but now the Beiyang government has collapsed.Xu Shuzheng originally thought that he would never have a chance to show his face again in this life.Who knew that Hua Fei not only didn't dislike him.Instead, he tried his best to resolve the grievances and resentments between him and Feng Yuxiang.If Xu Shuzheng was not moved in his heart.That is nonsense.The most important thing is that Xu Shuzheng felt that after doing things with Hua Fei, he could display his ambition even more.

Although Xu Shuzheng understands that a gentleman cannot stand under a dangerous wall, he understands even more that if he does not sign the order today, then he will be excluded from the social circle of Cai Su and Yu Chengping.And if he was excluded from Yu Chengping's party, then it would be very difficult to integrate into the National Defense Forces.

Shenyang, also known as Fengtian, was once the Shengjing of the Qing court and one of the important cities in Northeast China. It was originally Zhang Zuoshuang's base camp.Since the Japanese army entered the Northeast and Zhang Zuoshuang died, this place has always been the focus of the Japanese army's operations.In order to maintain the rule in Shenyang, a large number of Chinese were expelled from Shenyang City, and Japan emigrated a large number of its own nationals, wives and daughters from the country.In addition, before the war started, the Japanese army made a plan to fight to the death with the squadron here. A large number of useless old people, women, and children were driven out of the city to avoid wasting food.Therefore, although the residents of Shenyang City are claimed to be more than 50 at this time, the real Chinese are definitely not as many as the 40 million estimated by Yu Chengping.
