Age of Rebirth

Chapter 380: Strategy against Japan

Tang Qiuli was fine. As he traveled from later generations, he lost a lot of awe of authority figures. In addition, he had been in contact with Generalissimo Jiang many times. That kind of strangeness and fear had long since disappeared.

Mei Ting is different. Facing No.1 in the Republic of China, that is the boss of her boss. From the day she joined the military command, the leader is like the sun in the sky, existing in her heart like a demigod. Such close contact, especially The chairman's gaze stayed on her for a long time.

Mei Ting was nervous for a while, but Chairman Jiang's smile made her feel a lot easier. Mei Ting handed Tang Qiuli the purse in her hand, saluted Chairman Jiang, and then withdrew. At this time, her identity was Tang Qiuli's personal secretary.

Looking at Mei Ting's better back, Generalissimo Jiang smiled at Tang Qiuli and said, "Qiuli, this is Colonel Mei Ting, a very nice girl, take good care of her!" [

Tang Qiuli was stunned. He didn't expect the old man to start the scene in this way. The way he looked at him was a kind of understanding between men, and it seemed like a kindred spirit.

With Mrs. Jiang, Song Meiling, a beautiful woman watching by your side, could it be that you, an old man, still have the desire to steal incense and jade, and eat fishy smells?Hurry up and change the subject, if you can't keep the entrustment of the high-ranking official for a while, come to a mediator to help you, and be enthusiastic about being a man under the moon, so that's why you have a headache?In this day and age, it is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines, so I am envious of Xiaojin.

Generalissimo Jiang knew that Tang Qiuli didn't want to talk about men and women, so he didn't mention it anymore, and his affection for him deepened. However, at Tang Qiuli's age, now he is in a high position, with a youthful spirit and a suave personality, With outstanding talent, it is also human nature to have a few more confidante friends around you, circling among the flowers.

But besides Mei Ting, Tang Qiuli had never heard of any other women. It was very rare. What Chairman Jiang meant just now was not a kind of temptation. It was really a good method. When dealing with someone like Jiang, you have to be very energetic, otherwise, if you are not careful, you may be in trouble.

Several party veterans and high-ranking government officials knew that Tang Qiuli was still alone, and indeed intended to entrust Generalissimo Jiang to be an old man under the moon, and would like to make friends with this young upstart of the state. Moreover, the members of these families The girl is very outstanding, she is the best among the noble girls in Jinling.

Tang Qiuli couldn't get away from the truth, so Chairman Jiang put down the topic and changed to today's topic. Tang Qiuli was reporting according to his own ideas, but was suddenly interrupted by Chairman Jiang. He looked at the serious-looking man in surprise Chairman Jiang, I don't know where I made a mistake.

Generalissimo Jiang rang the bell to let the bodyguard come in, and told him to notify all members of the Military Commission in Nanjing, including Navy Minister Chen Shaokuan, Director of Aviation Zhou Zhirou, and Gendarmerie Commander Wu Tiecheng, to immediately go to the War Room of the Military Commission to hold an emergency military meeting.

Then, he patted Tang Qiuli on the shoulder and said, "Qiuli, tell everyone about your thoughts and views on the future Sino-Japanese relations in a while, and boldly say that our country needs a clear strategic conception and strategic deployment most now. You It works!"

Only then did Tang Qiuli understand that after hearing his report, Generalissimo Jiang felt that it was unusual and he attached great importance to it. It was necessary for these senior generals to listen to it together. I have more than a hundred years of knowledge, and I keep it so that your jaws drop from ear to ear.

In the war room of the military committee, in front of a huge map of the Republic of China, Tang Qiuli, holding a pointer, faced nearly a hundred senior military officials, speaking loudly, eloquently, and calmly.

Below are a group of generals who have been half petrified. As soon as Tang Qiuli started, he gave everyone a warning, "The war between China and Japan is inevitable. It will definitely break out in July and August this year! July is the most likely month." , At that time, our country will fall into a full-scale war!"

Nanjing and North China are separated by the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. In the eyes of these generals, the distant North China seems to be another world, which has nothing to do with them. Today, this General Tang immediately put the scene of the flames of war , Pulling it in front of everyone, how can they not be surprised.

In the war room, there was a "buzzing" discussion. The newly promoted General Tang, is a bit sensational, right?The Japanese have occupied the Northeast for six years, and they have not seen any attempt to fight south.

Tang Qiuli took the thoughts of these senior generals into his eyes, and felt a sense of sadness in his heart. When will the Japanese bombing fall on your heads, will you believe what I said today? When will the 30 people under the city of Nanjing be killed The massacre of innocent souls disturbed your peace, only to believe what kind of beasts you are facing!

Tang Qiuli ignored the reaction of the generals, his mind was completely immersed in the upcoming Anti-Japanese War.

"Japan's domestic resources are scarce, and the Japanese's ambitions for overseas territories are indeed growing day by day. China, which has been weak for a hundred years, happens to be the target they choose. From the September [-]th Incident to the current situation in North China, this does not explain this. , Japan, an island country, has the aggression and ambitions of heaven."

"The Japanese base camp has continuously increased troops from the mainland to North China in order to prepare for an all-out war with our country. At present, the strength of the Japanese army in North my country has reached 38, and there are signs of continuing to increase troops."

"The Pingjin area in North China is the breaking point of the Sino-Japanese War. When the war begins, the Japanese army will concentrate its superior forces, first destroy and eliminate our military power in North China, and turn North China into their stable rear base. Use the manpower of the occupied areas , material resources, and resources to support their war consumption, this is called overall war, and it is also called war to support war."

"Afterwards, the Japanese army in North China will gather heavy troops and divide them into three groups, attacking the provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi all the way, moving south quickly all the way, attacking Henan and other hinterlands of the Central Plains, and occupying the entire territory of Shandong all the way. A rich and prosperous place on the southeast coast.”[

"Here, it is not ruled out that the Japanese army will carry out a large-scale landing along the southeast coast of our country, and the first choice of attack location is Shanghai. That way, it can directly threaten our capital Nanjing, shake the political foundation of our government, and psychologically attack and destroy The will of our people to resist reaches the point of enslaving our people."

Tang Qiuli stopped speaking, and looked quietly at the senior generals below. What he said was too shocking, and it was not an exaggeration to use unimaginable and sensational. They needed to give them some time to digest what he said.

All the generals came to their senses with question marks in their eyes, including Generalissimo Jiang. The meaning is obvious. Do you have any good ideas?

"In the early days of the war, there were bound to be several large-scale battles in North China, with the most intense battles taking place at the junction of Shanxi and Hebei, Xuzhou at the junction of Shandong and Jiangsu, and the junction of Henan and Hebei. These battles determined the future of our country. combat pattern."

"Therefore, the focus of the Sino-Japanese war was in the north at the beginning. Whether the Japanese army's southward invasion can be stopped depends on the situation in the north. If there is no Japanese attack from the direction of Shanghai, the troops under our Yellow River Basin Theater Command can protect six In eight months, let the main force of the Japanese army in North China go south to buy time to prepare for the war of resistance in Jiangnan and other places."

That's enough, Tang Qiuli can't say more. If he said that in the future, the capital will be moved to Chongqing in the southwest, and most of the country will be lost. These generals, shouldn't they eat themselves on the spot?

In Tang Qiuli's words, the most important thing is Chairman Jiang. After all, this is the country he has worked so hard for. If the Japanese want to take it away, he will not kill him. The committee put the strategic focus on North China and the Shandong Peninsula, which laid a good foundation for Tang Qiuli to wipe out the Japanese army in North China.

In the words of Chairman Jiang, the affairs in the north are entrusted to Vice Chairman Tang. However, the old man said to him, lend me 30 of the [-] Central Army in your hand, and use troops in the area south of the Yangtze River. There are still many places.

Later, the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs will be responsible for forming ten first-class field divisions with more than 15 soldiers, and return them to our Vice Chairman Tang.This was said to Chen Cheng. In a word, transfer 10 people and return you 15. You will not lose money!

It made Tang Qiuli feel embarrassed. It used to be the old man's army, but now he borrowed it from himself. Although it was a joke, it also showed the old man's expectation and trust in him. Handing over the family fortune to a brat?

In the next few days, Tang Qiuli was immersed in the military committee. He led some senior generals to make a top-secret northern combat plan and the deployment plan for the Yellow River Basin Theater. These two plans were listed as top military secrets.

After that, the Sino-Japanese War broke out on July [-] of that year. The generals who had already led the army and fought against the Japanese army recalled what Tang Qiuli said in the war room of the Military Commission at that time. Exactly what he said.

The generals were astonished, and they doubted Tang Qiuli's talent to the point of being inhuman. Whenever there was a big battle, they had to communicate with Tang Qiuli and listen to his opinions.

General Jiang Baili, a famous military strategist in the Republic of China, was skeptical after hearing the news, and went to Tang Qiuli's tent in person to find out the authenticity. He immediately stayed in Tang Qiuli's army and served as the staff of the Yellow River Basin Theater Command. As a senior officer, he made suggestions and plans, participated in military aircraft, and became Tang Qiuli's most capable helper.

Moreover, Tang Qiuli also reaped a huge benefit. The Military Committee decided to gather the tanks and armored vehicles of the various units of the Communist Party of China and allocate them to the Yellow River Theater Command. Tang Qiuli has the strength to form three tank brigades .

Although these tanks and armored vehicles are of different models and most of them are old, Tang Qiuli has his own plan to transform and upgrade these tanks and armored vehicles with the current industrial production capacity of the Dingbian Special Economic Zone. Newly built tanks are much less labor intensive.

So, he sent a telegram to the old man Zhu Zixuan in the United States to purchase a large number of tank components from the United States. It is best to purchase the equipment of two tank divisions for the whole vehicle, and he is not afraid of spending money.

This is a gift he prepared for his younger brother Battelle. In more than a year, the little guy will return to China after studying.

After being busy for a while, he finally had some free time. He took Mei Ting to enjoy the night view of the Qinhuai River. Since arriving in Nanjing, he has not had time to play with this girl.
