Beiyang reactionaries

Saito felt a great pain in his head.

After all, he was old and didn't have a good rest all night.Coupled with one bad news after another, Saito Mi's temple was bulging.

Saito sat down and calmed himself down.

"Let Itagaki get in touch with the Chinese army to see what happened."

"Yes."

"And send a telegram to Tokyo to tell the news. Let the country send reinforcements and supplies as soon as possible, otherwise the situation on the Korean peninsula will get out of control."

"Yes."

"Also... let's do this first. Send a telegram as soon as possible."

Saito waved his hand to let people go out.

Then he kept pressing his head.Things are really getting more and more complicated.I think that during the Sino-Japanese War of [-]-[-], the army and navy of the Japanese army swept away the Qing army.

But after the war in 1923, Saito Minoru has understood that the current China is not the Manchu Qing government 30 years ago.But the young men in the army became more and more radical, and they all thought that the Chinese army was nothing more than that.I thought that the Japanese army could easily defeat them, so they were very crazy.

Neji Okamura is one of the representatives of these people.

In fact, Okamura Ningji's ability is very good, and Saito is quite optimistic about this person.But they are all too blind, too confident.But thinking about it, Saito Mi still thinks that talents are rare, especially talents like Okamura Ningji.So he immediately shouted: "Come on."

"General."

"Go to the telegraph room and ask them to send a telegram to Itagaki. Contact the general of the Chinese army. If Okamura is captured by the Chinese army, let the Chinese army hand him over. Any conditions can be proposed."

"Yes."

468

"well."

Shang Zhen was overjoyed and said: "Chang'an (Dong Songyan) did a good job. This battle was fought beautifully and our morale was greatly boosted. The Japanese army is no different. We are not at a disadvantage when we face to face. Our troops are capable of fighting the Japanese army head-on. .”

Impossible not to be excited.

Although China and Japan fought a war in 1923, the performance of the army was not too bad.But in that war, the Chinese army had many problems in many aspects. The war with Japan was the first such intense war that the Chinese army experienced.Although the Chinese army fought many battles before this, they were all civil wars.To put it bluntly, those warlord troops are basically collapsed at the touch of a button.

During the process of Duan Xun's entry into Beijing, although he fought many battles, he seldom fought any real tough battles.Especially after Duan Xun has been operating in the Southwest for a period of time, he is almost invincible in the face of those warlords.

Reorganizing troops takes far longer than fighting.And fighting the Japanese army was really tough.Therefore, when many troops fought, many problems occurred.

In that war, the Japanese army believed that it was the cause of the earthquake, so they chose to back down.If it were not for the earthquake, the Japanese army would have been able to win.Even the Chinese army has such rumors.But Shang Zhen couldn't say anything.

Because in that war, the Chinese army did rely on its superiority in numbers and because it took the lead, it took the initiative in the war.Later, the Chinese army did not take advantage of the head-on confrontation with the Japanese army.

But Dong Songyan is really awesome.

Surrounding and annihilating a regiment of the Japanese army with one shot greatly boosted the morale of the Chinese people, and it even boosted the morale of the Chinese army.Tell everyone that there is nothing mysterious about the Japanese army, nor is it as powerful as imagined.

This has huge benefits in raising the morale of the entire Chinese army.There are nearly 40 troops in Northeast China, which is the same as the current number of the entire Japanese army.

Everyone will no longer be afraid of the Japanese army.

"Let Commander Dong deal with the rest of the matter as soon as possible, and then sort out the battle report. I will report it to the Military Department."

"Yes."

"What does Beijing say?"

"The prime minister personally instructed that as long as the Japanese army crosses the Yalu River, it will be resolutely eliminated. And the prime minister instructed us to train more troops of the Korean Independence Army. Take advantage of the current opportunity to strengthen the strength of the Korean Independence Army."

"understood."

Shang Zhen nodded.

Since the chaos on the Korean Peninsula, the entire Northeast system has been very tense.Because no one knows whether the riots in North Korea will spread to China.

As the commander of the Northeast Military Region, Shang Zhen has carried out a first-level combat readiness for the troops of the Northeast Military Region.Be prepared for the influx of Japanese troops into the Northeast at any time.I haven't had a good rest during this time.

But the overall picture is still very favorable.Shang Zhen thought for a while, and said to Ge Jingen, "Director Ge, you understand what the Prime Minister means."

"Yes."

"Then tell me. With the current situation, how can we increase the strength of the Korean Independence Army in a short period of time. After our attack this time, the Japanese army's strength on the Korean Peninsula is even more stretched. There will be a power vacuum in many places on the Korean Peninsula. It is the opportunity for the great development of the Korean Independence Army. It will take some time for the Japanese army to send reinforcements. Use this time to strengthen the strength of the Korean Independence Army and let them deal with the Japanese army on the Korean peninsula."

Not many people in this world are stupid.

The three countries of China, Japan and North Korea are very clear about each other's thoughts, and each force is well aware of each other's actions.China does not want to fight directly with Japan, but wants to grind Japan and slowly wear down Japan's strength.Therefore, we will continue to support the Korean Independence Army, strengthen the strength of the Korean Independence Army, let the Korean Independence Army fight with the Japanese army, and prevent Japan from stably controlling the Korean Peninsula.Japan knows that China is behind the Korean Independence Army, including weapons and ammunition are provided by China.But in order not to continue to deteriorate the relationship with China, apart from some protests, many aspects are turning a blind eye.

The same goes for the North Korean government-in-exile.They know that China hopes to use the Korean Independence Army to attack Japan. To put it bluntly, it is using the Korean Independence Army as cannon fodder.But even if they knew, they still had to accept China's conditions, and they accepted it happily.Because this is the only chance North Korea has for independence.

The North Korean government-in-exile knew that it was impossible to recover North Korea by relying on their strength alone.If you want to expel Japan and gain independence, you must get help from China.Therefore, the North Korean government-in-exile knows what China thinks, but they have to accept it happily.

China's support for the Korean Independence Army is absolutely sparing no effort.In just one and a half years, he helped the North Korean government-in-exile train about 3000 troops.

Since the chaos on the Korean Peninsula, more than 2 rifles have been provided to the Korean Peninsula.

"In order to quickly increase the strength of the Korean Independence Army, I think there are several steps that can be taken."

Ge Jingen is in charge of contacting the North Korean Independence Army in the Northeast, so he knows their situation best.So he immediately said: "Open more short-term training courses, and train more grassroots officers for the Korean Independence Army as soon as possible. After these days of war, the Korean Independence Army has some combat experience, but it is still extremely short of grassroots officers. We can hold an officer training course for about three months, or even shorter than this."

"no problem."

Shang Zhen nodded.

Shang Zhen has trained in the military and understands the importance of low-level officers in the army.He said directly: "If the Northeast Army Officer University does not have enough teachers or lacks a place, you can let them come to the army to receive training directly. I will allocate a barracks for you to train grass-roots officers. When the Prime Minister was in the west of Henan, he was in the army directly. Set up a teaching brigade, an officer brigade. Where is the current formal school, but it has trained many outstanding grassroots officers.”

"What's more, a group of North Korean military officers will be drawn from our troops to support the Korean Independence Army."

"This one……"

Shang Zhen hesitated.

Because of the important location of the Northeast, the Northeast Military Region has become the place where China has the most troops.There are many troops and many officers, including many North Korean officers.

After North Korea was occupied by Japan, many people came to the Northeast, and many joined the Chinese army to make a living.There are also many scholars who studied in Chinese military schools in China and then joined the Chinese army.This group of people is not a small number.If you search carefully, there can be more than a few hundred people.

But let them go to the Korean Independence Army?

This is no small thing.

"I'm going to report this matter to my superiors and let them decide."

Military issues are too sensitive.
