Beiyang reactionaries

But the same.

Duan Xun is afraid of the future Soviet Union and the United States, so don't the United States and the Soviet Union fear China?

According to China's current development, it is not impossible for the population to reach [-] million at that time.With such a large population and the development of China's industry, are the Soviet Union and the United States really not afraid?

"Okay. Brother Xinye, like this, you should think about this after you go back. Write a feasible plan and let me have a look. But don't expand it. The two of us will take a look first, and then discuss with other people. Discuss it. See if there is such a possibility. If there is such a basis, we can negotiate quietly with the Japanese side."

"it is good."

"But no matter what you do, let's solve the Korean Peninsula first. As long as the Korean Peninsula is still in the hands of Japan, their ambition to go north will not stop. Regardless of our relationship with Japan in the future, their ambition to go north must be completely eliminated. Lose."

"kindness."

"Report."

"Come in."

Zhang Zhizhong walked in and said to Duan Xun: "Prime Minister, the preparations for departure are over, and we can leave at any time."

"Okay. 10 minutes, leave in 10 minutes. You go to inform the first batch of people to get ready."

"Yes."

"Brother Xinye, let's go."

486

"How about Huishan County?"

On August 1925, 8, Duan Xun's special train departed from Nanjing.

Things developed too fast, and Duan Xun had to return to Beijing.Moreover, it has been more than two months since the trip to the south, and many problems have been found, which also need to be discussed with the cabinet.

So Duan Xun didn't delay at all.

After arriving in Nanjing, I only rested for half a day, and the special train set off immediately.According to the current speed of the train, it would take more than a day and a half to return to Beijing.Duan Xun only paid attention to two things on the train.One is the diplomatic movement of the new cabinet just after the pacification of the chaos in Japan.Wakatsuki Reijiro served as the interim prime minister, and he should have had exchanges with China, because the current Sino-Japanese relationship is the most complicated.But they haven't given China a clear signal so far.

Are they abiding by the "Beijing Statement" just signed two months ago?

If they overturn the previous decision, the future of Sino-Japanese relations will be another big question.Therefore, Duan Xun needs the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs to contact Japan to see the attitude of Reijiro Wakatsuki's cabinet.

Only by understanding their attitudes can Duan Xun make the next move.

The other is the situation on the Korean Peninsula.

Again.

Regardless of how China chooses its foreign policy in the future, the Korean peninsula cannot be left under the control of Japan.Because as long as it controls the Korean Peninsula, Japan will never give up on Beishan.

The Korean peninsula is like a springboard for Japan's ambitions to keep growing.Only by driving Japan out of the Korean Peninsula and then deploying heavy troops on the Korean Peninsula will Japan give up the idea of ​​going north.

So Duan Xun is very concerned about the situation on the Korean Peninsula.

"Still in a state of truce."

Xu Yongchang and Lin Wei reported to Duan Xun.

"Since the truce at noon on the 5th, the Japanese army has not yet resumed its offensive."

"Haven't resumed the attack yet?"

Duan Xun frowned.

When fighting a war, the tactics must be fast, swift and violent, and the battle must be resolved quickly to avoid a protracted war.In a battle, if the troops procrastinate, it will cause many problems.The Japanese army rushed and fought before, and the effect was actually very good.The Korean Independence Army was losing their positions one after another.

But why did the truce take so long?

The longer the truce, the better for the Korean Independence Army.After all, they have time to readjust, time to restore morale.Judging from the previous Japanese offensives, the ability of the Japanese frontline commanders is still very good, and it shouldn't be impossible to see this.It seems that the mutiny in Tokyo this time also had a great impact on the Japanese frontline.

"However, according to our intelligence, the logistical materials delayed by the Tokyo mutiny have begun to be re-shipped to the Korean peninsula. The third brigade, which suppressed bandits in the Pyongyang area, has already begun to go north from Pyongyang. I think from the current situation, The Japanese army re-launched the offensive, and it was within a few days."

"kindness."

Duan Xun nodded.

This is normal practice.It is impossible for the Japanese army to cease fighting for too long.As long as the political situation in Tokyo is stable, the Japanese army will definitely attack again.

Because the Korean Peninsula cannot be discarded at this stage for China and Japan.

"Have you made any adjustments?"

"Director Ge took some staff officers directly to the front line to observe, met with the leaders of the Korean Independence Army several times, and re-deployed the forward positions. The newly trained four thousand recruits and the guards have also crossed the river and invested On defense."

"How many troops are there in Huishan County?"

"The Korean Independence Army currently has about 6000 troops. Our antiaircraft artillery regiment, artillery division, and some logistics troops add up to about 5000 people. There are a total of about 5 troops in Hyesan County. "

"There are a lot of people."

Thirty-five thousand people.

The Korean Independence Army has lost a lot after such a long battle, and there are still about 6000 troops, which is quite a lot in terms of numbers.

On the Chinese side, artillery divisions and antiaircraft artillery regiments were dispatched, as well as logistics units to help the Korean Independence Army.The number of this part of the army is also quite large, about 5000 people.

In a small Huishan County, the Chinese and North Korean troops have a total of about 5 troops, and the Japanese army has gathered more than 7 troops.

"Prime Minister, some time ago the Japanese army began to encircle and suppress those rebel forces and bandits on the Korean Peninsula. Facing the regular Japanese troops, those people couldn't stand it anymore, and began to withdraw in large numbers to our country. After we take over these troops, we will send them Send it directly to the Korean Independence Army. The Korean Independence Army is fighting now, and anyone who can carry a gun will be pulled to the front line. That's why there are so many people on the front line."

"Are there many people in this group?"

"A lot. In the past ten days, our troops have received about 3000 people. And I believe that as the Japanese army begins to encircle and suppress the resistance forces in the northern region, more people will withdraw to the northeast. These troops In the past, they ruled over the local area and did not accept the command of the Korean Independence Army. Now they are forced to cross the river and enter our country, which I think is a good source of troops.”

"kindness."

People are ambitious.

When the Korean peninsula was in chaos, many resistance forces came out, including many bandits.Those people may have really resisted Japanese aggression and plunder at the beginning.But after they became stronger and had hundreds of rifles in their hands, their thoughts began to change.

As the saying goes, the emperor takes turns to do it, and come to my house tomorrow.

Those people began to have unrealistic fantasies, and they didn't want to listen to the leadership of the North Korean government-in-exile, and they could become local princes themselves if they had the opportunity.But now the encirclement and suppression by the Japanese army is getting more and more severe, and those people can't stand it any longer, so they want to join the Korean Independence Army.But there was already a war in Huishan County, so they didn't dare to go.They crossed the Yalu River and went directly to the Chinese army.

Now that you're here, you can't eat in vain.Of course it is to let them go to the front line to fight.Although these people have not fought a big battle before, they have fought against small Japanese troops and Japanese police stations before.

Much better than those recruits.

"After Ge Jingen crossed the river, what adjustments were made to the Korean Independence Army's defense line?"
