Beiping, the Marshal's Mansion, the Marshal's face was expressionless, not angry and pretentious, and the communication soldier next to him carefully read the telegram.

"Hmph, these Kwantung Army's stupid roe deer are being played for fun, and they really thought we were the ones who beat them," said the commander-in-chief.

The young marshal said: "How about this, let me get in touch with the Kwantung Army's senior management and explain the seriousness of the matter, so as not to fall into other people's schemes to sow discord,"

The commander-in-chief was silent, and Yang Yuting next to him said: "With the wisdom of Commander Muto, you can't fail to see that this is someone else's obstruction, but now they believe that our Fengjun did it, and they have launched revenge, so let's explain it. It’s pointless, because the Kwantung Army needs this excuse, and their goal is to gain more and greater benefits in the Northeast after increasing their troops,”

"Then what should we do now? Could it be that the counterattack is not successful? This is in the enemy's arms. If the prediction is correct, this time it should be the people from the National Defense Army or Nanjing who made trouble in the crowd," the young marshal said angrily.

"Even if they don't play tricks, I will teach them a lesson. Communication soldiers, call Zhang Zuoxiang immediately. We will also organize an elite guerrilla force to deal with the guerrilla troops of the Kwantung Army. Fight guerrillas with guerrillas. We will reject all unreasonable demands of the Kwantung Army." ,” the commander gave the order.

The young marshal looked worried: "Father, will this trigger an all-out war?"

"You're still young, don't you see through that the Kwantung Army is going to eat our Northeast," said the commander-in-chief.

The young marshal looked incredible: "Japan is a small place, not to mention that the Kwantung Army only has more than 5 people. Wouldn't it be a joke to eat our Northeast? I think we should negotiate terms with the Japanese."

The marshal waved his hand: "I've made up my mind, there's no need to say any more, you take people to the northern grassland immediately, buy war horses and expand the cavalry,"

"Yes, I'll do it now," the young marshal said, turning and leaving.

"Wait a minute," the commander-in-chief called the young commander-in-chief, "Take care of those under your command, don't buy horses without giving money, or give less money, that will only ruin the reputation of our Fengjun."

"Yes," the young marshal went to the Mongolian grasslands to recruit troops.

"Yuting, do you think this is the right way to handle it?" the commander asked Yang Yuting.

Yang Yuting nodded: "The commander handled it very well. Since the expansion of the arsenal this year, our light weapons and ammunition are already very sufficient. Although there is a serious shortage of armored vehicles, we have a large number of rifles, pistols, and light machine guns. If conditions permit, I think it is better Expand another [-] infantry in the Northeast, and at the same time, the existing troops will also carry out winter training to give the soldiers a tense atmosphere before the battle, so that if they really fight with the Kwantung Army, they will not suffer losses."

"Winter military training, how to train, what to do, let me talk about it in detail," the commander regained his energy.

"One is training. Our Northeast is cold in winter and there is a lot of snow. In winter, soldiers are very lazy and unwilling to move. It can be carried out through the exchange of troops. The second is predictable construction of fortifications. Conflicts, or the construction of fortifications in advance on strategically important grounds, once a battle occurs, relying on fortifications will play a very good role in protection," Yang Yuting suggested.

"It's okay to switch training, but it may not be easy to build fortifications in winter. We have a severe permafrost in the Northeast," said the commander-in-chief.

"The commander-in-chief doesn't need to worry. You don't need to dig deep holes on the ground in winter, you just need to use sandbags to pile them up. If you want stronger ones, you can pour water on the sandbags and cast ice and snow fortifications. This kind of fortification was as early as the Russo-Japanese War I used it when I was there, and it was very good.”

"Okay, let's pass on the order. It will be implemented tomorrow. After a month, you and Zhang Zuoxiang will go to various places for inspection. The tens of thousands of troops in Beiping can't be idle. From tomorrow onwards, I will personally supervise the training," said the commander-in-chief.

The Kwantung Army and the Fengjun finally fought. This is a good thing and a bad thing for the National Defense Army. The good thing is that it is impossible for the Fengjun to continue going south for the time being. It is not enough to pose any threat to Shandong. But there are many disadvantages, that is, the Fengjun has started again. The new round of expansion, after all, the Fengjun has a large area in its hands. Although there are constant losses, it cannot withstand the large number of recruits. In addition, the threat of the Kwantung Army's increase in troops has made the general attach great importance to the army. In addition, there is Yang Yuting With such talents, Fengjun launched a series of large-scale military training, construction of fortifications and other military actions, which greatly improved Fengjun's combat effectiveness in a short period of time.

The National Defense Army in Shandong is also mobilized unprecedentedly at this moment. More than a dozen cities are dispatched to each other, and they are not afraid of fuel consumption. Today, the garrison in Qingdao arrived in Jinan in tanks and trucks. Tomorrow, the garrison in Weihai traveled a long distance to Jining. The common people have opened their eyes. They can see tanks and trucks constantly on the newly repaired roads all day long. This kind of mechanized training training is to train the reaction speed of the troops and the psychological quality of the soldiers. After all, except for senior officers, ordinary soldiers are not Knowing whether it is training or fighting, all they have to do is prepare.

The land in Shandong in the early winter is getting colder, and the morning sky is thin and full of dense fog. Liu Tianling no longer urges the production speed of tanks, but instead goes to train recruits and go to various units to check and spot check from time to time, so that the troops are always in a good state. A real state of being able to fight, instead of wasting money, to train a group of soldiers with embroidered pillows. Early in the morning, after Liu Tianling trained the newly recruited military cadets from the military academy, he took Li Yindiao and others, and a group of them drove in two cars. An ordinary off-road vehicle left Jinan and went straight to Zhangqiu.

Zhangqiu is just a small county at this time, without any strategic position, but there is a railway passing by here, and it is currently rushing to work, so I found a construction site at random.

Liu Tianling ordered the soldiers to stop the car far away, and only took Li Yindiao and two people straight to the construction site.

Li Yinbao asked: "Commander-in-Chief, what are we here to check?"

"Although the construction of the railway is to benefit the people, if the people below take the opportunity to harass the people and abuse the workers, it will turn a good thing into a bad thing. Just like the Sui Dynasty, the Grand Canal built after thousands of years will still benefit the people, but it is That project, which was supposed to win the hearts of the people, turned into a project that lost the hearts of the people," Liu Tianling said with emotion.

This is a construction site in the mountains. There are only two hooks for large machinery, and the rest are a few tractors, and all of them are carriages and mule carts. It was done by the people in the nearby villages, and of course the wages were relatively low.

The people near this construction site were mainly people, and there were very few soldiers in the Construction Corps. The arrival of Liu Tianling and Li Yinbao did not attract too much attention.

The people work in an orderly manner, there are no vicious supervisors watching, and a man who looks like a village chief occasionally gives instructions.
