Li Fangzheng was reprimanded by Zhang Yi, and he was not annoyed, but he was very surprised in his heart, at least he knew that Mo Ru was safe now, but he didn't know where he was nesting, or what secret mission he was performing, many years of intelligence work, he knew the importance of secrecy, looking at the general's serious face, he knew that this matter was not something he could participate in, but I was afraid that there would be no more than five people who could do this, or even three people!

Zhang Yi said with a straight face: "Fangzheng, you know the consequences of this matter, don't ask anything, don't say anything, if I hear two words from your mouth, you know the consequences!" ”

Li Fangzheng hurriedly said: "Don't worry, instructor, from now on, I will never mention these two words again!" ”

Zhang Yi softened his face a little, and said: "You immediately notify all the military and political dignitaries, the government notifies the minister and above, the army, and the division commander and above in Shengjing, all of them are holding meetings in the presidential palace, I have important things to study, go!" ”

The next day, the large conference room of the presidential palace was already full of all the military and political dignitaries of the Republic of China, except for those who were not in Mukden. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com]

Zhang Yi looked at these elites in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, you must have guessed that such a large-scale meeting must be conducted for a big event, yes, straight to the point, this time, I am aiming at the Boxer Rebellion in Guannai!" ”

Everyone was taken aback, such a large-scale meeting was not for the affairs of the Republic of China, but for Kannai, it seems that the president is thinking about it.

Tang Shaoyi said: "Jianzhi, I know, the Boxers in the Guannai are too fierce now, but this has little to do with us, now we are doing our best to develop, the Qing government and the great powers only see the bullshit, we still don't mix, the most important thing for us now is to quickly consolidate our own strength!" ”

Zhang Yi sighed and said: "Shaochuan, I also want to take a breath, bury my head, and concentrate on developing our economy, but the situation is not up to people, now the Boxers in the Guannai are instigated by people with intentions, and the trouble is getting more and more fierce, some time ago, there were foreign foreign priests in Shandong, Zhili and other areas of the information that they were killed, the Western powers have reached the limit of patience, once they decide not to endure it anymore, they will definitely send heavy troops to invade China, think about the tragedy of the two Opium Wars, Aren't the people of Kannai our compatriots? I think at least two-thirds of all of you here are from Kannai, which is our roots, how can we bear to watch these parents and brothers slaughtered? ”

Tang Shaoyi's face turned red and said: "Jianzhi, I understand what you mean, and I also know what you think, but once there is a war, we will not face just one Japan, not just one Tsarist Russia, or the two join forces, we may face a joint attack by several countries or even more than a dozen countries, our Republic of China has just been established, and our strength is still too weak, can we resist it, isn't there a good saying, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, now is really not a good time for us to do it, We're too weak......"

Xu Xuhuaijin on the side said: "Shaochuan, I think the kind of situation you said, it may not be absolutely happening, we really don't have the strength to compete with so many countries, but these countries may not all go to war with us, the most important thing now is that we have to be fully prepared, no war, let's continue to develop, if it really goes to war, we don't necessarily have to be afraid of them, at least they want to defeat our hundreds of thousands of troops, it's not an easy thing, no matter which country weighs it!" ”

Zhang Yi glanced at Xu Huaijin with satisfaction, and said: "Huaijin, you are still so cautious, you like to do everything without leakage, but I can tell you clearly that this war will be unavoidable, unless we now send a large army to kill the old lady Cixi, otherwise this battle is too difficult to avoid, don't you see, now Cixi has been deceived by Duanjun Wang Zaiyi, she really thinks that the Boxers are invulnerable, trying to wash away the shame of many years, and she can't do it." ”

Mo Qi stood up from his seat and said, "Instructor, what do you want to do, just give the order, and our brothers will do what you tell us, regardless of whether he is English or French, Lao Tzu doesn't believe that they have three eyes!" ”

Tang Shaoyi smiled bitterly and said: "Fortunately, this year is a good year, and our Republic of China's finances are a lot more abundant, otherwise, what will we use to support this war?" ”

Zhang Yi said with a smile: "Shaochuan, don't worry, this time we want to play a big game, and the action of unifying the whole country is about to be promoted, although the timing is not the best, but with the help of this defeat of the Qing Dynasty, we still have a lot of opportunities, but for the time being, we may have to face some difficulties." ”

Tang Shaoyi replied: "No matter what, as long as the president has made up his mind, I will fully support you, alas, my life is hard, I can only continue to fight hard." ”

Zhang Yi nodded and said: "Okay, Shaochuan, the Republic of China government and the General Staff jointly issued a recruitment order to the four provinces of the Republic of China, the first thing we have to do is to expand the army, from now on to the real full-scale war, there should be half a year, within half a year we will expand the army again, the original revolutionary guard division was expanded into the revolutionary guard, under the jurisdiction of three divisions, the original old man brought back the batch of officer exchange regiments can come in handy, appoint Ling Chuanqing as the commander of the group army, ordered to form the sixth group army, under the jurisdiction of the nineteenth division, The 20th and 21st Divisions appointed Song Deyang as the commander of the 19th Division, An Dahai as the commander of the 20th Division, Liu Mengru as the commander of the 21st Division, and Zhang Yi as the chief of staff of the Group Army. Taiwan immediately began preparations for the formation of Taiwan's Second Division, with division commander Meng Hao and the first division forming the Eastern Naval Regiment, with Shi Dakai as the commander and Zhang Zuolin as the chief of staff of the corps! ”

Recruit three divisions of troops at once, this is more than 50,000 troops, just the military salary and weapons and baggage equipment need a lot of money, Tang Shaoyi breathed in distress on the side, but the most headache is Finance Minister Xiong Xiling, such a big expenditure, isn't it a small amount, and some of them have a headache.

Zhang Yi continued: "Huai Jin, how many cars has the automobile group allocated to our army now? Xu Huaijin said in a deep voice: "Instructor, the number of cars that have been delivered to our various armies has reached 2,000, and they have been equipped with each army. Zhang Yi frowned and said, "Confused! ”
