The riots lasted for several days and did not subside until June [-]rd, so Lin Yuan issued a telegram at [-] o'clock on June [-]rd: "Recently there was a massacre of civilians by the military and police in Japan, and we in China have been paying close attention to the situation. We express deep sympathy to the Japanese and Korean people who were slaughtered! At the request of the Japanese People's Liberation League, China will choose an opportunity to enter Japan to stop the massacre."

As soon as this telegram was issued, it caused a shock in the international community. Britain, the United States, Germany and other countries issued a telegram at [-] noon on the same day: "The Japanese government's arrest of rioters is Japan's internal affairs, and China has no right to interfere!"

Lin Yuan instructed his news media to retort: ​​"Didn't you intervene by saying that we massacred Japanese civilians in North Korea?"

As soon as these accusations came out, Western powers such as the United Kingdom, the United States, Russia, and Germany were immediately speechless, because the same thing can be done by Western powers, but China cannot. The officials set fires and the people were not allowed to light lamps." The double standards of the Western powers made them lose face in front of the world.

On June [-], Switzerland, Ethiopia, Sudan and other countries issued telegrams expressing their support for China’s entry into Japan. On the same day, the colonial governments of Egypt, India and other countries ruled by Western colonists also issued telegrams to reprimand Lin Yuan's actions.

At [-]:[-] p.m. on June [-]th, Lin Yuan held a military meeting in Busan. The chief officers of Lin Yuan’s troops in North Korea attended one after another. Other military chiefs who could not arrive attended the meeting through video calls.

At the meeting, Lin Yuan said: "Comrades, after such a long period of political and diplomatic preparations, the conditions for attacking the Japanese mainland are now ripe, so I decided to divide the troops into three groups on June [-] and attack native Japan."

"On the northernmost road, the 18st Division is the main force, crossing the Soya Strait to attack Hokkaido, the 36th Division stationed in Sakhalin Island, and the 37th and 17th Divisions who have just been transferred from the reserve to active duty cooperate with each other. The 34st Division is attacking At the same time as Hokkaido, the 35th Division stationed in Petropavlovsk, the [-]th Division and the [-]th Division transferred from the reserve to active duty attacked the four northern islands, including the islands in the north and the east side of Hokkaido. The Japanese attacked."

Lin Yuan went on to say: "Seven divisions, as well as various naval transport units and support units will be invested in this route. The total number of troops is about 30. I will organize these units into the northern front army, and the commander of the first division will be Shen Xin. Comrade." Lin Yuan looked at Shen Xin and said, "Shen Xin, do you have any questions?"

Shen Xin hesitated for a moment, and said: "Shuai Lin, the troops of our front army, except for the first division, which is mostly veterans who have fought in battle, the other divisions are all troops with no actual combat experience. too big?"

Lin Yuan said: "No, Hokkaido was not originally a place for Japanese people. Their aborigines are Ainu people. Japan only began to settle there in 1869. Japan ruled Hokkaido for a shorter period of time, so The rule of the Japanese government in Hokkaido is the weakest and there is not much mass base, so your attack should not be too difficult. I let these troops attack Hokkaido because I want to train soldiers and train more fighters for our country to deal with the future. World War."

Shen Xin nodded and did not say much. Lin Yuan continued: "Now let me talk about the road in the middle, that is, Busan-Tsushima Island-Kyushu Island. The Japanese army took the retreated First Division and Fifth Division. The Regiment and the Sixth Division are all stationed here, plus the original No.11 Division, No.12 Division, and various paramilitary forces. The Japanese army has invested almost 30 troops on this line! This is the largest Japanese army. One of the solid lines of defense."

"So the second division, the third division, the seventh division, the independent first brigade and the independent second brigade, the No.30 first division and the No.30 second air cavalry division are the main attackers. They will be transferred over one after another. You will gather seven divisions and two brigades along this route. I will organize you into the Central Front Army, with Comrade Xiao Yingwu as the commander. The total strength of this route is 25. Regardless of the small number of you, you are all It is the earliest and most elite unit! And I plan to assign the newly established No.30 Third Amphibious Combat Division to this route!"

The No.30 Amphibious Combat Division is an expanded force based on the amphibious combat brigade back then. Lin Yuan considers that his future opponents may be Japan, the Philippines, and island countries in Southeast Asia. They need a large number of amphibious combat troops, and one amphibious combat brigade can no longer meet the needs. Therefore, this amphibious combat brigade was reorganized into a division, and the amphibious combat force will be organized into a separate service in the future.

Lin Yuan went on to say: "The amphibious combat division will stab at Tsushima Island like a sharp knife. Japan has always boasted that Tsushima Island is their unsinkable fortress in the Japanese sea. As soon as our amphibious combat division comes out , will pierce their fortress!"

Everyone nodded in praise, Xiao Yingwu said: "We all know that the amphibious combat brigade was born out of the sixth division, which is a special operations division. This fight is a sure thing.”

Lin Yuan said: "This is our central front army, and finally the southern front army. This route will not use our troops. Ryukyu King Shang Tai has already stated that he will dispatch the Ryukyu National Defense Army to occupy the Osumi Islands, and then cross the Osumi Strait. Attack the southern part of Kyushu."

Everyone frowned after hearing Lin Yuan's words, and Lin Yuan asked: "What's wrong? Don't you believe in the strength of the Ryukyu National Defense Force? The Ryukyu National Defense Force was trained by our instructors. Everyone has seen the combat quality of the Ryukyu people." , Many veterans of our First Division are Ryukyu people. During the Northeast War, they ran for [-] kilometers and outflanked the Japanese army. Do you still have any worries about them?"

Xiao Yingwu said: "The southern front army can go directly north and attack Japan's Kobe, Yokohama and Tokyo. These three cities are where Japan's largest port is located and the core of the Japanese economy. Why don't we deploy elite troops in this area and directly What about attacking Japan's economic core?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "I don't directly attack Tokyo and other places. I have my own considerations. First of all, Tokyo and other places are the most heavily defended places in Japan, especially the Japanese Guards Division. The most elite troops, if we attack these places, the land base is too far away from the combat area, and it will be difficult to supply."

"Secondly, my idea is to conquer Japan with a cannibalization strategy, so I want to divide the entire campaign into two stages. The first stage is to capture Kyushu Island and Hokkaido. After capturing these two places, attack Shikoku Island and Honshu Island .”
