"Prime Minister, since Commander Li (Li Jishen) and Chief of Staff Xu (Xu Yongchang) both believe that the army is capable of coping with the conflict, our navy will definitely not hold back. Although our navy is currently weak, what do we need to do? , we must finish."

Sa Zhenbing immediately expressed his determination.

Not flattering.

Sa Zhenbing is a person who has experienced the Sino-Japanese War of [-]-[-], and hopes to defeat Japan more than anyone else.But he has no confidence, especially the current Chinese navy is not as strong as it was in the Jiawu period.

But seeing that these army generals thought they could wrestle with Japan, Sa Zhenbing could only express his opinion.

"Prime Minister, what about our air force?"

Qin Guoyong asked Duan Xun.

Although the Air Force has been promoted to a separate branch, Qin Guoyong has also become the Deputy Minister of Military Affairs.But after all, the air force developed late and its strength is still very poor.

The right to speak is far inferior to that of the army and navy.

"Chief of Staff Xu, what do you think?"

"Call the east and the west. At the beginning of next year, announce the development of the air force. Then build airports in some sensitive areas, such as Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Wuchang, to attract everyone's attention, including the attention of the Japanese. But those are bluffs." , Our real purpose is to increase the construction of airports in Beijing, Chengde, Shandong, and Changchun. We will quietly transfer the main force of the air force to the Gyeonggi area.”

"It's not easy to hide from the Japanese intelligence agencies."

"Yes."

Xu Yongchang nodded.

With so many Japanese secret agencies in China, it is really difficult to deal with them.Many troops were mobilized, and it was not easy to hide it from the Japanese.But Xu Yongchang still said: "But we have our advantages. Although Japan is also aware that next year is the year when the 'Luda Land Lease Treaty' will expire. There will definitely be some reactions from China, including our government. But whether it is the Japanese high-level officials or the Japanese military, they look down on us as a whole, and they look down on our army. They will never think that we have the courage to fight against them, let alone believe that we will have such a situation. Thoughts. Therefore, for us, it is mental calculation without intention. As long as what we do is not too blatant, the Japanese military will never think that we are preparing for war. This is the most beneficial thing for us.”

"it is good."

Duan Xun nodded.

Then he looked at the generals in the room and said solemnly: "Half a century ago, those ZTE ministers in the Qing Dynasty started to learn from the Westernization Movement in the West, and Japan also started their Meiji Restoration. Both of our East Asian countries started Learning from the West started the road to a strong country. But in the First World War of the First Sino-Japanese War, the two countries took completely different paths. Our country continued to sink, and was regarded as a meal by the world powers, and suffered humiliation time and time again. Even if it is After the founding of the Republic of China, our country has not been able to get rid of this fate. It still depends on the face of the world powers. Japan is prosperous. First, it defeated the old power Russia in the Russo-Japanese War. In the European War, it used the war to make a fortune. , to vigorously develop their power in the Far East. After the European War ended, Japan no longer cared about the "British-Japanese Alliance" and competed with the United States to dominate the Far East. Japan itself became a world power."

"The Sino-Japanese War was the dividing line between China and Japan. Counting from the year of the Sino-Japanese War, next year will be the No. 30 year. If we fail again next year, then our country may continue to sink and become On the stage where world powers compete, what to do depends on the face of the powers. But once we stand up next year and we get a good result, then the fate of our two countries may have a new turning point in the future. Our country will There is a chance to slowly break free from the control of the great powers and become a truly independent country."

"So I have only one request for everyone. Today's meeting, no one is allowed to say a word outside this door. This includes parents and relatives. Anyone who leaks the content of today's meeting is definitely treason. Can everyone do it. "

"Yes."

For the sake of Duan Xun's words, who dares to say two more words.

Everyone is a soldier, and immediately answered loudly.

"Commander Li (Li Jishen), Commander Sa (Sa Zhenbing), Commander Qin (Qin Guoyong), Chief of Staff Xu (Xu Yongchang), Secretary-General Yang (Yang Jie), the five of you will formulate a detailed military plan for me after the meeting. Move the plan. Make a good case, make a plan that doesn't make anyone feel wrong."

"Yes."

"Minister Han Linchun."

"arrive."

"Calculate the weapons and equipment of the national army, the current weapons and equipment reserves of the equipment department, and the number of weapons and equipment that can be produced by the arsenal in the next six months. What I want is the most detailed statistics, and what I want is the most realistic situation. "

"Yes."

"Dismiss."

370 Deployment

"Brother Jizi (Xie Hongxun), I haven't seen you for many years."

1923 years.

Another month will be 1923. Duan Xun is more nervous and anxious than anyone else.Although Duan Xun thought that he had already made all the psychological preparations, and knew that next year Japan would have a world-sensational Kanto Earthquake, Duan Xun still didn't dare to be careless.

Because it is too important.

If you make a slight mistake next year, you will lose everything.If China wants to completely get rid of Japan, or completely get rid of the great powers, it will be hit hard.

Duan Xun absolutely cannot tolerate such a thing.

Therefore, it is necessary to prepare early and absolutely not allow any changes in the next year.

"Prime Minister."

Xie Hongxun and Duan Xun had indeed not seen each other for many years.

It should be said that when the two were in school, the relationship was not very good, or basically there was not much contact, and the relationship was mediocre.If it wasn't for both of them becoming well-off later on, Duan Xun might not even know that there are people like Xie Hongxun among his classmates.Even if he hadn't read Xie Hongxun's information, Duan Xun would not have known that Xie Hongxun was his classmate.

But regardless of the previous relationship, since the two are classmates, they must be closer than others.Even in the eyes of others, Xie Hongxun and Duan Xun are classmates, so Xie Hongxun will definitely be included in Duan Xun's faction.

After so many years, the reunion situation is completely different.

Xie Hongxun has always been proud.Because he has followed Lu Yongxiang for many years and has always been the most powerful general in Lu Yongxiang's hands.In the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, he can be regarded as invincible, and he is a fierce general praised by everyone.

But people have to bow their heads under the eaves.After all, Duan Xun is already the Prime Minister of the cabinet, Xie Hongxun still understands some truths.So I politely called "Prime Minister".

"General Wang."

"Prime Minister."

Greet Xie Hongxun first, then Duan Xun greet Wang Pu.One of these two men was Lu Yongxiang's number one general, and the other was Ni Sichong's wise general.

Xie Hongxun and Wang Pu came to Beijing for the first time after this year's war.

"Both, sit down. The reason why I want to see you this time is because I have something to discuss with you. Marquis Zhan (Ge Jingen), please introduce the person who is here today."

"Yes."

It wasn't Duan Xun who saw the two of them alone.

Many bigwigs from the military department also came today.Because Xie Hongxun and Wang Pu have always been there, and have nothing to do with Duan Xun.So the two of them don't necessarily know all the big shots in the military department.Or it should be said that there are many people they don't know.At most, I know their names, but I don't know who is who.So Ge Jingen immediately introduced to Xie Hongxun and Wang Pu: "Commander Xie, Commander Wang, this is General Li Jishen, Deputy Minister of Military Affairs, General Sa Zhenbing, Deputy Minister of Military Affairs, General Qin Guoyong, Deputy Minister of Military Affairs Will."

Several undersecretaries of the War Department have arrived.

Several people nodded to Xie Hongxun and Wang Pu, as a greeting.

Ge Jingen continued: "This is General Xu Yongchang, Chief of the General Staff of the Military Department, this is General Xiong Kewu, Minister of Military Affairs Department of the Military Department, and this is General Yang Jie, Secretary General of the Military Department."

After the introduction, Ge Jingen sat down.

As Duan Xun's military staff officer in the military department, he is usually Duan Xun's military secretary.Of course, he himself also has a position in the military department. He currently serves as the director of the general office of the military department and manages all the work of the military department.

As far as the Ministry of Military Affairs is concerned, Ge Jingen is Duan Xun's military secretary and military staff officer.Under Yang Jie, the secretary-general, he is in charge of the work of the military department.

"Minister Xiong, tell me."
