Beiyang reactionaries

"read."

"Our department mobilized the heavy artillery regiment and more than 60 infantry guns, consuming 370 rounds of shells. It sank two Japanese warships and damaged two warships. One ran aground and was dragged to the shore by our Yangtze River Fleet, and another warship Fleeing towards Jiujiang. They have already controlled the area around the Japanese pier, but the Japanese army has complete fortifications at the pier, making it difficult to attack. Prepare to mobilize the Yangtze River Fleet and army artillery to destroy the pier fortifications. It is planned to completely clear the rebellious Japanese troops at the pier within two hours."

Chen Bulei read Zhang Zizhong's report.

"Call back: Allow the Yangtze River Fleet to cooperate with the 21st Army and take the dock as soon as possible."

"Yes."

Duan Xun was very angry.

These Japanese soldiers really regard China as their own back garden, and come and go whenever they want.A few small warships shelled a few times, wanting China to hand over the people they want.

If Duan Xun agrees, how can Duan Xun have the face to continue to be the prime minister of this cabinet in the future.If Duan Xun was intimidated by a few small Japanese warships, how could he sit in this position.

Originally, Duan Xun did not expect to deal with the Japanese army and docks on the Yangtze River so quickly.After the conflict in the Northeast, we will deal with it.But how could Chen Yuhao back down if the Japanese warships didn't give face like this.

"Everyone, there is no turning back arrow when we open the bow. Now that our arrow has been shot, there is no way to turn back. From now on, all departments have entered an emergency state."

real conflict.

The previous so-called customs and the handling of Japanese ronin were just appetizers.This time it was a face-to-face battle between the armies of the two sides. The Chinese army even sank two Japanese warships, captured a warship, and was still attacking the Japanese army in the dock.This is a real armed conflict.

If there is still room for redemption in the previous things, then this is different now.

What country is Japan?

After such a thing happened, how could Japan let it go.Now there is no room for turning around, and a war between China and Japan is bound to happen.

"Prime Minister, everyone is ready."

Dai Kan speaks for everyone.

It's all gone, there's no turning back.If there is a retreat, everyone will be half-hearted and think more.Now that there is no way out, everyone has let go of all their psychological burdens.

Now we can only go together.If you win, everyone here can enjoy the cheers, and you can leave your name in history.If it fails, once Duan Xun can't bear the pressure of failure and goes out, everyone will basically go out with Duan Xun.And even if Duan Xun really chooses to step down by then, he will still be powerful in China's current political landscape.

If anyone is holding Duan Xun back at this time, Duan Xun will definitely settle the score with that person before he goes out.

So now there is no way out for everyone.

"Well."

Duan Xun said very seriously: "From now on, I declare that our cabinet will become a war cabinet, and everything will be prepared for this war. The central task of the cabinet in the future will be to fight, and everyone's work must make way for the war. Starting today, I will work in the military department in person, and everyone will come to the military department to find me if you have anything. Premier Dai (Dai Kan)."

War Cabinet.

Chen Yuhao announced the establishment of a wartime cabinet, which is an extraordinary state.Once the cabinet enters the status of a war cabinet, the command power will definitely be highly centralized again.

Many normal processes are completely useless.

National power will be concentrated in the cabinet, and the power of the cabinet will be concentrated in the hands of the prime minister.

"Prime Minister."

"You have to personally preside over the daily work of the cabinet and coordinate various departments. Everything is for war."

"Yes."

"Prime Minister Wang (Wang Yongjiang)."

"Yes."

"It's the same sentence. I need war funds and logistical materials. I don't care what impact this war will have on our country's economy or how many government plans it will affect. You must ensure me sufficient military expenditures and sufficient logistical materials. "

"Yes."

Chen Yuhao turned to look at Yang Yongtai and said, "Prime Minister Yang."

"Prime Minister."

"In addition to being responsible for your own work, you are also responsible for contacting the Japanese representatives. We are fighting Japan, not for a war of annihilation. So the two sides can keep the conversation channel at any time. And after the meeting, you go to the temporary Senate Yang Speaker Wei. The provisional Senate must urgently convene a special session to approve the establishment of a war cabinet."

Once the cabinet is established as a war cabinet, it will have many powers that it does not normally have.Many wartime policies can pass through Congress.Therefore, the war cabinet is a special cabinet for a special period entrusted by Congress.

Therefore, the establishment of a war cabinet must be approved by Congress.

Now it is necessary to get the consent of the provisional Senate.

"Yes."

"Secretary Liang (Liang Hongzhi)."

"Prime Minister."

"In addition to being in charge of the daily work of the cabinet, you have to organize the work of the cabinet every day. Then choose important things from them and come to report at night. As for emergencies, you must send someone to the military department at any time."

"Yes."

Entering the wartime cabinet will be much more tiring than usual.

Everyone can't rest casually.

If the cabinet is on duty in normal times, it only needs one cabinet member.Then after entering the wartime cabinet, the number of people who need to be on duty every day will increase dramatically.

Almost a third of cabinet members are on duty.

"President Dong (Dong Kang)."

"Prime Minister."

"The Jiangsu case should be closed. I don't interfere with the judiciary, but those who shoot in Japan, and those who ordered to shoot, are guilty of whatever crime they should be, and none of them should be let go. And public judgments can be made, allowing journalists, various Representatives of the group attended."

"Yes."

There is going to be a war.

It is time to provoke domestic public opinion.

The matter in Subei has been dragging on for so long, so there should be an answer.Moreover, it is necessary to unify domestic public opinion and make domestic public opinion absolutely support the government's actions.

The more wars are fought, the more support from domestic public opinion is needed.

"Prime Minister."

When Duan Xun was deploying the work below, Chen Bulei quietly came to Duan Xun's side and called Duan Xun.Duan Xun turned his head and said, "What's wrong?"

"News from Jiujiang. When the three Japanese warships were sailing between Jiujiang and Anqing, they fired many times at the coast along the line and bombarded many counties along the line. There are no accurate casualty reports yet, but it is estimated that they will not According to preliminary statistics, they fired at least more than 100 shells."
