Xu Huaijin pondered: "Instructor, I think there should be no problem, after all, our forces occupy an absolute advantage, although Yihu is sometimes a little reckless, but there are hundreds of miles next to him, and Lao Feng." [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com]

Zhang Yi nodded and said: "I hope so, anyway, I didn't think about recovering North Korea this time, and sent a telegram to Yihu, telling him not to act recklessly, just press the army over, fight a moderate battle, and don't oppress too forward." ”

Xu Huaijin was shocked and said, "Instructor, you don't plan to recover North Korea?" ”

Zhang Yi nodded and replied: "Yes, if we really want to recover North Korea, I am afraid that the Japanese army will fight with us to break the net, the Japanese army still has a combined fleet, they still have at least ten reserve divisions in the country, this war has consumed too much of our energy and resources, now is not the time to fight to the death with Japan, wait, in another five or six years, not only North Korea, but also the Vladivostok area, we will take it back!" ”

Xu Huaijin's eyes flashed, and he said: "Instructor, it just so happens that the current situation in Taiwan is very unfavorable, we can take back Taiwan on the condition of North Korea, as long as we take Taiwan, then our situation will be completely opened!" ”

Zhang Yi admired it, now Xu Huaijin is not only his most effective assistant militarily, but also began to gradually mature politically, and he can see the importance of Taiwan at a glance, yes, Zhang Yi's plan in his heart is to use North Korea as a bargaining chip to force Japan to give up Taiwan, and then use Taiwan as a base to establish his own joint fleet! Keelung and Lushun, one south and one north, two fleets, when they can cross the Pacific Ocean, ten years later, there will be no opponents in the Pacific Ocean!

Zhang Yi laughed and said, "The hero sees the same thing, Huai Jin, this is also my idea!" Okay, let's do it according to our plan, order Zhang Yihu and Li Gang, the two armies to launch an offensive towards North Korea, and we must put the greatest pressure on the Japanese army! ”

Zhang Yi and the others are now elated and festive.

Li Jianshang is really worried now, fortunately, Kuroki saw the opportunity quickly, decisively lost the car to protect the handsome, and desperately escaped back from Jilin, although the loss was not small, but it also kept the main force of the Four Masters Group, otherwise, it would be even more tricky now.

Even so, now all the troops in the whole of Korea are only more than 60,000 troops combined, and some of them are second-line troops, and the entire Japanese army is panicked and demoralized, how can this be used to defend Korea?

Now, it is obvious that Zhang Yihu's 70,000-strong army has crossed the Yalu River and entered the northern part of Korea, which is only less than 100 miles away from Pyongyang, and at the same time in Kuandian in Mukden, now the Chinese Tiger has concentrated three main divisions, and there is also an artillery brigade, adding up to more than 40,000 people, which may cross the Yalu River at any time and enter Xin'anzhou, and more than 100,000 troops have been assembled on the two fronts in the north and south, which is definitely not something that the Japanese army can easily stop.

At present, the Japanese Combined Fleet has been cruising in the waters of Liaodong, restraining the movement of the Kuandian army, but Kuandian has gathered three divisions, and as long as one division is taken out to deal with it, the combined fleet will not be able to deal with Liaodong.

Now Tatsumi Shang has sent an urgent telegram to the Japanese base camp, asking the base camp to quickly organize reinforcements to rush to Korea, but now the Japanese base camp is also in a mess, and the whole of Japan is in a kind of white terror.

From two months ago to the present, more than 60 officers of the Japanese War Department and the Navy Department, especially the officers of the Shaozhuang faction, have been assassinated, 50 of whom have lost their lives, and the rest have also been seriously injured.

The public security department in Tokyo, Japan, is now like a rat crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats, and every day someone blocks the gate of the public security department and scolds angrily, this group of waste consumes the country's finances in vain, and even a handful of assassins can't help it, in a month and a half, only three assassins have been arrested, but when they are caught, these assassins have all committed suicide, and there is no clue at all!

The chaotic military and political circles are difficult to solve their own crises, and they naturally slack off on the request of the immediate opinion.

However, this telegram still came into the hands of Ito Hiroshi, although Ito Hiroshi is no longer the prime minister of Japan, but his protégés and former officials are all over the entire Japanese military and political circles, and the invisible power and prestige are too great.

Ito Hiroshi saw the telegram, broke into the prime minister's office, saw Yamaguchi Youtomo, threw the telegram in front of Yamaguchi Youtomo and Oyama Yan, and roared angrily: "Yaga, you bunch of waste, now that North Korea is in danger, you are still here with nothing to do, do you repay His Majesty the Emperor for his kindness in this way?" Didn't you all see the telegram from Tsumi Shang? Why haven't you sent helpers yet? ”

Yama County Youpeng's face turned red, he stood up from his seat, and replied: "Ito-kun, now due to the threat of *** assassins outside, the War Department is even a little ineffective, we are discussing this matter, now there are only two guards divisions in our country that can be regarded as elite, and the other eight divisions are reserve divisions, with limited combat power and no elite soldiers, how can we compete with the Chinese Tiger army?" He has gathered no less than 120,000 troops. ”

Ito Hiroshi said angrily: "Are you just ignoring the 60,000 elite soldiers of North Korea and ignoring North Korea because of the lack of domestic diseases?" Without North Korea, where will the resources we need for development come from? How will we, the Empire of Japan, compete with the great powers and the world in the future? Dashan Yan hurriedly replied: "Ito-kun, aren't we discussing countermeasures now, we even invited the prince of Fushimi Palace, it's really difficult to grasp this situation, which Zhang Yi is too powerful, in the face of the alliance of more than 200,000 troops between Tsarist Russia and the empire, he was not afraid to be defeated by him one by one." Now that he has the power of a great victory, the army has crossed the Yalu River, and the front of the army is directed at Pyongyang, we are only afraid that it will be difficult to hold Pyongyang, without the Yalu River as a barrier, it will be difficult for 60,000 defeated troops to hold North Korea! Ito Hiroshi looked at Dashan Yan angrily, and said fiercely: "Dashan-kun, what about the dignity of your emperor, you have a fear of the Chinese tiger's army, how will you fight with the Chinese tiger in the future!" We are now at a disadvantage, but if we cannot solve the problem militarily, do we have no other way to think of it, and in addition to using force to resolve the dispute, we can also resolve it diplomatically! Now that Tsarist Russia has lost Vladivostok, don't you still find a way to take it back? Now we're not alone! ”
