Chapter 130: On Protracted War

In the lecture martial arts hall, regardless of the martial arts project, Zhang Hanqing showed the edge of the milk tiger roaring valley.

Regarding Zhang Hanqing's abnormal performance, Zhang Zuolin has always taken it to heart. I really didn't expect that Xiao Liuzi not only did what he said, but also greatly earned glory on his father's face. Before, letting him "be the head of the regiment after graduation" was just a joke and a motivating general, but now I really have to think about how to operate in order to actually teach him a regiment leader...

And Zhang Hanqing has become famous, and around him, a young Zhuang faction headed by him has gradually formed. Of course, there is no way to talk about the power now.

In the army, there is no one who cannot be played. In fact, it is the same in any industry, especially in the Republic of China. Even Peking University, where Zhang Hanqing stayed at the beginning, also had a very strong unhealthy trend, the so-called "Ten Brothers".

What do you mean? It is ten students who have the same smell to worship as brothers, and after graduation, everyone goes to the camp to become officials, and whoever is an official is big, and the other nine people go to him as section chiefs and secretaries, and get an official and a half position, "sharing blessings". If this official is bought with money from a warlord or a big bureaucrat, then the camp fee is divided among ten people.

The atmosphere in the army is even more unseemly. Since Zhang Zuolin started his life, the sworn brothers have been constantly updated with every strong Feng army. Now, his eldest son is by his side, and no one will believe anyone who tries to snuggle up to Zhang Hanqing with the idea of "sharing blessings together" in the future.

But Zhang Hanqing has lofty ambitions, and he hates these old habits and old officers from the bottom of his heart: when fighting a good battle, there are not a few people who advance with great spirits, and when the situation is unfavorable, there are not a few people who even fight back. What he wants is a real soldier and an officer: someone who has a new style of thinking and arms his mind, who regards the honor of a soldier as his life, who can keep up with the development of the times, especially who can keep up with his footsteps.

Needless to say, the old officers who have followed Zhang Zuolin for a long time are definitely much more difficult to transform them than to train a new person, and Zhang Hanqing is not ready to dig into his father's corner. Without it, for this, he has already laid out in advance.

The entry of a large number of student soldiers into the school has brought vitality to the lecture hall. These quasi-soldiers, who have never been on the battlefield or even seen a gun before, are absolutely impressive once they break out. Zhang Hanqing is just an outstanding role model among them, but in addition to him, there are many others who are trying to forge ahead.

Wang Yizhe is one. After he was successfully fooled in by Zhang Hanqing last year, he has always shown the vitality of a hot-blooded youth, and he is even often praised by old-fashioned officers, who think that he is a good seedling to lead troops. If it weren't for Zhang Hanqing's character explosion, he would be the absolute celebrity here.

One day at noon in early July, during a lunch break, Zhang Hanqing was chatting with several "fans" who were also hardliners against Japan, when a burly middle-aged instructor approached the group with his hands behind his back.

After seeing the visitor, the students who were originally in a relaxed state immediately greeted their eyes with full enthusiasm, and this atmosphere immediately made Zhang Hanqing feel that the person who came was extraordinary. He deliberately showed a polite demeanor, saluted a very standard military salute, and said loudly: "Artillery scientist Zhang Hanqing asks the instructor for a lecture!" ”

After returning the salute, the visitor smiled and said, "I heard that you have a view of protracted war, that Japan is not terrible? ”

The reason why Zhang Hanqing put forward this argument is actually because the fear of Japan in this era has reached a weight that he cannot bear: Japan's violation of the treaty in Northeast China is ---- the infamous "Russo-Japanese Portsmouth Treaty," which occupies a place far more than 30 kilometers from the side of the South Manchurian Railway and interferes in China's various internal and foreign policy provisions. And whether it is from the center to the local area or even within the Feng army, they all think that if China and Japan go to war, China will be defeated, let alone in the northeast, which is in a remote corner? As a result, a strange circle has been formed: the more afraid China is of Japan, the more arrogant Japan becomes; The more arrogant Japan is, the more afraid China becomes.

In many cases, this kind of fear is the real enemy, which will seriously affect the morale of the army and the perception of the people, thus creating more threats, seriously affecting the judgment of strategy and the execution and courage of the battlefield... This has led to a vicious circle, so much so that in China, there is a strong "fear of Japan" and "the theory that China and Japan will lose in a war." It is estimated that the reason why traitors prevailed in China during the Anti-Japanese War, in addition to the fact that some people were born cheap, is not unrelated to this argument of failure: there is no future, there is no hope, what to fight!

It was because he decided to advance the classic doctrine of ** by 20 years and expounded it to the officers on various occasions, which was shaking the whole tree with his own strength. After communicating with General Cai for so long, this set of doctrines began to become more and more refined.

Seeing that the instructor came to ask, Zhang Hanqing didn't think twice. Even if they don't say it, they have to try to instill their own views in them in order to teach and inform more people. He rigorously worded and repeated the theory of protracted warfare again and more precisely:

"Yes. Xueliang believes that not only is Japan not scary, but they are afraid of us. On the surface, China is in a semi-colonial and semi-feudal position, and it is still a weak country, inferior to the Japanese in terms of military, economic, and political organization---- and in this respect, Japan is first-class in the East and one of the five or six famous powers in the world. There is no doubt about that. Therefore, at the present stage, this constitutes the basis for China's inability to win a quick victory, and also constitutes the basic condition for Japan to have the opportunity to wage a war of aggression.

However, China is a country that is rising day by day, and China has a tradition of longing for reunification, and as long as it can truly complete a country in the modern sense at this stage, it can arouse the unity of the whole country, and at the same time, because China is a very large country, with a large land, a large number of people, and a large number of soldiers, it can support a long-term war. It is true that China is not ready for a war with Japan, but also Japan is not ready. In the short term, he did not have enough troops to occupy a place as large as China. As long as China seizes this rare opportunity to complete reunification and integrate resources and industrial strength, the Chinese people have enough confidence and courage to meet the challenge, and the rising China will make it more and more difficult for Japan to have the courage to completely confront. In time, time is on China's side. This is the exchange of space for time, that is, the meaning of protracted warfare. ”

"A thousand words turn into one sentence: China has a way."

The middle-aged instructor's eyes showed a hint of eagerness. This kind of argument, with his eyesight, he also thought about it in private, but it was analyzed by Zhang Hanqing so uniquely, although he didn't say anything, Zhang Hanqing still read the meaning of "incisive" from his eyes.

However, for a moment, the middle-aged instructor regained his serious demeanor, as if it was natural to ask: "According to your meaning, isn't China a unified country?" ”
