An Yi spoke to 1,200 students who were proficient in Persian from various universities, enterprises and institutions in Xinjing.

"Dear comrades and friends, it is expected that you will be leaving for Afghanistan in the near future. What kind of country is Afghanistan? This is a country where Islam is prevalent, and it is located in the southwest of China's traditional border -- 'Green Ridge', which is the junction of South Asia, Central Asia and West Asia, and is a piece of pedal that can penetrate the influence of our Chinese nation into Persia, Dashi and India.

"Many students may ask, what is the difference between this and aggression? I'm going to tell him, there's a big difference! First, we entered Afghanistan as a national rescuer, not an aggressor. Many comrades, probably through newspapers and radio, know about the war that is taking place in Afghanistan, and that's right, now Afghanistan is suffering from aggression from the Tsarists. What kind of virtue Tsarist Russia is, everyone knows very well, that is, crazy plunder, massacre, cruelty, and use all despicable means to encroach on other people's land, and it is because of this that this country has developed from a small land near Moscow to the largest country in the world in terms of land area, of course, now the country is divided, divided into Soviet Russia and the Far East, and we are loyal allies of the Far East.

"In the past, the invasion of Lake Berga, the Far East, and Central Asia by Tsarist Russia, and the annexation of the Tangnu-Ulianghai and Mongolian regions of our country after the October Revolution, as well as the invasion of Poland, all confirmed this without exception, and as long as Tsarist Russia burned the flames of war there, it would bring slavery and death there.

"Look at what Tsarist Russia is doing now? On the one hand, they coveted the territory of Finland, on the other hand, they threatened war with the Baltic states, built the so-called Eastern Defense Line, and now they are taking advantage of our expulsion from Central Asia to justifiably want to invade Afghanistan and Persia! What are the disastrous consequences if we leave it alone?

"First of all, to the south of our Central Asian territory, there will be a regime hostile to us, and this regime was established by Tsarist Russia! Moreover, now the hand of Tsarist Russia is reaching out to Persia, which is four times the size of France, but this is a barren mountain country with nothing but rich oil! The importance of oil Now we know that our motherland is an oil-poor country, although the Central Asia we occupy also has oil, but all this is like a castle in the air, and the slightest carelessness will make everything we have come to naught!

"We can imagine what it will be like for Tsarist Russia, which has signed an alliance with Germany, to attack us, and it is very likely that they will launch it from the Ural River in the north, the Caspian Sea in the middle, Afghanistan in the south, and Persia in the southwest, and then we will be attacked on all sides, and the Central Asian homeland that our warriors have regained by throwing their heads and blood will be lost from us again, and we will be nailed to the stage of shame forever by history because we have lost the last chance to recover the land left to us by our ancestors!

"Comrades, in the final analysis, we can only take possession of Afghanistan, and bring Afghanistan completely under our administration, as in Central Asia, and teach the people there the culture of our Han nationality, so that they know that we are not invaders, but a useful attempt to make this country, which is still in the transition from a slave society to a feudal society, live a happy life like us!

"Comrades, therefore, when we arrive in Afghanistan, we should not look at the four million people of that land with superior eyes, but should touch them with fraternal affection. We need to establish fair laws and regulations, carry out land and animal husbandry reforms, and build primary, secondary and university schools, so that every Afghan can be proud of being a Chinese! Therefore, in your daily actions, you have to respect the traditions of Afghanistan, their religious beliefs and their national customs, and only by taking everything to heart and being anxious about what they are anxious about, can we finally occupy it and build it into a front line against imperialism and hegemonism.

"Comrades, the great cause of national rejuvenation is calling us, and the blood of the ancestors of the Han and Tang dynasties is nourishing us. At this critical moment when this world is in chaos, we Chinese nation must also send out our strongest voice, so that the world can understand that our Chinese nation is the best race in the world, and we will use our civilization to influence the world and write the most splendid chapter! ”

After An Yi finished speaking, the audience erupted in warm applause.

In fact, An Yi knows very well in his heart that many of his places are strong words, and they can even be said to be crooked and heretical, but just as the United States in later generations always dressed itself up as a holy angel no matter how evil things they did, An Jiajun also had to put on a righteous cloak for his actions.

In An Yi's plan, ethnic harmony is only the first step, and the second step is to build a strong production and construction corps to march into Afghanistan, completely change the proportion of Afghanistan's population, and lay the most solid foundation for finally firmly occupying this place.

When the applause stopped, An Yi solemnly saluted, and then returned to the stage, where Lieutenant General Li Zhide, director of the Organization Department of the General Political Department, came to the stage to preach the details that need to be paid attention to after entering Afghanistan, especially the ethnic and religious policies.

When An Yi was pondering how the war in Afghanistan was going, Shen Fengdao hurriedly came to his side and told the General Staff to convene an emergency meeting and needed him to attend.

As soon as An Yi heard it, he knew that something big was happening, so he said goodbye to the director of the General Political Department who was sitting on the side, then got up and walked out of the auditorium and returned to the compound of the General Staff Department.

In the war room of the General Staff Department, the generals and colonels gathered, but everyone looked at a loss, and it seemed that they had all been notified urgently to come to the meeting.

Yang Fei and Yang Jie, deputy chiefs of the General Staff, Shen Ziling, director of the Operations Department of the General Staff Department, Cheng Shiming, deputy director of the General Staff Operations Department, Liu Qing, director of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff Department, Fu Mingshan, deputy director of the General Staff Mobilization Department, Qin Shanyue, director of the General Staff Mobilization Department, Deng Bin, president of the National Defense University, and Zhao Dongquan, director of the General Office, all attended the meeting.

After An Yi arrived, Yang Fei, who was presiding over the meeting, immediately cut to the topic, strode to the map prepared in advance, and pointed to Xingzhou:

"Chairman, ladies and gentlemen, the Japanese army has officially captured the fortress of Xingzhou in the early hours of last night, but due to the news, we have not obtained first-hand information until now. The Strait of Malacca is now officially under Japanese control. ”

On the way here, An Yi had already heard Shen Fengdao introduce the latest situation, so he was not too anxious, but Deng Bin and Zhao Dongquan, generals engaged in military theory education and research, felt a little unacceptable.

Deng Bin stood up and asked: "As far as I know, the Sin Chew Fortress is known as the strongest British fortress in the Pacific Ocean, the entire base is bulldozed hills, changed the river course, dug up 170,000 cubic meters of land, and then used 230,000 cubic meters of soil to fill in the swamp into flat land, and then started construction, it took a total of more than 60 million pounds, 17 years of hard work, to build a huge and strong fortress, I heard that the oil pool of the military base can hold a million gallons of oil, there are machine repair shops, underground ammunition depots, and a huge dock.

"This base is a symbol of the strength of the British Navy to dominate the Pacific Ocean, with a deep-water harbor of 57 square kilometers, the ability to accommodate the main fleet, barracks for 12,000 people, a cinema, a church and 17 football fields, it is a small city with everything, and is known to the world as the Gibraltar of the East, how did the Japanese army take it?"

Zhao Dongquan also expressed his opinion: "I am still surprised that the war in Malaya is progressing so quickly. The previous information was all half-clawed, and this time the General Staff must have received a detailed report on the war situation, so please explain it together. ”

Yang Fei nodded and motioned for Intelligence Minister Liu Qing to step forward.

Liu Qing stood up and went to the front, took the baton, and pointed back and forth on the map while explaining:

"Due to the suddenness of the war, there were serious problems with the deployment of the entire British army. As a result of our invasion and occupation of Siam, the British army felt strong pressure and deployed half of its forces in Malaya in the northern military port of Kota Bharu and the area around the Japanese-German defense line, which had been carefully constructed for many years, in order to prevent the possibility of our army moving south. As for the west, the British army was confident that it had a strong naval fleet to assist in the defense, and did not pay much attention to it, so this became the fatal wound of the British army.

"The Japanese army is equipped with a large number of bicycles, this means of transportation, very suitable for the Malayan jungle, swamps and streams crisscrossing the terrain, when encountering shallow water, you can carry a car to wade across the river, and when encountering a large river, you can cross the river with folding rubber boats, the marching speed is very fast, so the troops equipped with bicycles are called 'silver wheel troops' by the British army. After the Japanese 25th Army landed in Port Klang, its main force, the 5th Division, captured Kuala Lumpur with almost no blood, and then quickly moved south to the strongly-fortified Kinmasi Line. The British army was extremely unsuitable for the Japanese army's tactics, retreated in embarrassment, retreated to the Kluang area to build a defensive line, and was once again broken through the defensive line by the 5th Division using the same method, and had no choice but to withdraw to the Johor Strait.

"While the 5th Division was attacking Kuala Lumpur, the 18th Division, which landed at Port Klang with the 5th Division, was advancing northward, while the Guards Division landed successfully at the port of Malacca to the south. The 18th Division was mainly to pass through the northwestern part of Malaya, and at the same time to consolidate the defense of the border areas bordering China. The Guards Division's mission was to cooperate with the 5th Division to capture the fortress of Sin Chau as soon as possible, so they advanced almost non-stop, all the way south along the coastline, the dock of Link Muar, the main British army held Baribhue and Pungaran, and finally joined the 5th Division in Johor.

"Due to the hasty southward withdrawal of the British troops stationed in Kota Bharu and the Japanese-German lines, the Japanese 56th Division successfully landed at the port of Kota Bharu and pursued the British troops retreating to the Straits of Johor along the eastern coast, from north to south. Retreating from the north to the south, the entire route is nearly 1,000 kilometers, and at this time, the Guards Division and the Fifth Division have begun to plan to attack the fortress of Xingzhou.

"Let's take a look at how the Japanese army took Sin Chew with the strength of two divisions. There are about 30,000 British troops defending the satellite island, and the Malay Peninsula is separated by the Johor Strait about a kilometer wide, if the British army guards the trenches on the other side of the waterway, and the Japanese army forcibly crosses the river, it will always suffer great sacrifices, but there is a problem in the middle, the British batteries are facing the sea, while the Malay Peninsula is in a blank state, and only some of the huge cannons can be aimed at the northern land for rotary fire. At the same time, the British army had just experienced a series of defeats, losing most of the Malay Peninsula in just over a week, which almost frightened the British.

Therefore, the Japanese army struck while the iron was hot, and launched an attack on Sin Chau the day after arriving in Johor. First of all, the Guards Division carried out a feint attack on the eastern part of Sin Chew during the day, which immediately attracted the main force of the British army to the east, and then, the Fifth Division took advantage of the darkness to force the river in the early morning, and landed successfully in only 20 minutes, and immediately advanced in depth, and by the morning of the next day, the Sin Chew airfield had been successfully taken.

"The main force of the Guards Division followed closely behind the Fifth Division to cross the river and land, and after the two divisions converged, with the coordination of infantry and artillery, they conquered the most important Bacterma Heights on Xingzhou Island in one fell swoop, and then the Japanese army used aircraft to drop a 'proclamation of surrender' to the British troops stationed in the urban area of Xingzhou, but the British refused to surrender. In desperation, the Japanese army had no choice but to continue the attack, and the two sides fought in the city of Xingzhou.

"Due to the loss of air supremacy, under the indiscriminate bombing of the Japanese Air Force, the entire Sin Chew City was devastated, and the Japanese army advanced step by step, and there were many fierce hand-to-hand battles, and the British defense line was repeatedly squeezed, and defeat seemed inevitable. In this case, last night, the Governor of the colony, Toms, the commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Army, Admiral Popham, the commander of the Air Force, Rear Admiral Pulford, fled to India on seaplanes from the naval base, and in the early morning the commander of the fortress, Lieutenant General Pashibar, surrendered to the Japanese.

"According to the latest information we have obtained, in fact, after the fighting, the Japanese army has reached the point where it can no longer be sustained, all the shells have been exhausted, the bombs of the aircraft are almost exhausted, and even the front-line soldiers have serious problems with food and ammunition, and they have to be frugal again and again. And the stocks of the British army are sufficient, ammunition will not be a problem for another year, and there are more than 50,000 tons of grain, which are now cheaper for the Japanese. In addition, since landing on the Malay Peninsula, the Japanese army has captured 150,000 rifles, more than 2,000 machine guns, more than 600 cannons, 13,600 automobiles, and more than 50 tanks. ”

After listening, the crowd was silent for a while. The British are too incompetent, and this battle will definitely not be fought so embarrassed if it is fought by the An Home Army.

In fact, the Japanese army played around with such a three-board axe, and the An Jiajun had a special strategy for dealing with this.

Take the famous flank attack of the Japanese army as an example, when attacking in a wing, it is generally to first use a squadron to approach the feint to lure the defender to expose the fire support point and the deployment of troops, and then use the squadron to carry out a flank detour. Once the roundabout squadron, reinforced with heavy machine guns and light and heavy mortars, reached its designated position, the wing prepared fire with heavy artillery and then launched an attack, which advanced in a wedge-shape, starting from a distance of 400 meters, alternating cover. Due to the long range and high accuracy of the 38 rifle, coupled with the excellent shooting skills of the Japanese infantry, it was often able to kill and injure a large number of defenders trying to shoot at the Japanese during the attack, and for the defenders who were already tired of coping with the frontal attack, the addition of Japanese flank fire would make the situation worsen sharply, thus causing the collapse of the defenders on all fronts. The Japanese detour troops often drew out a number of small units, and then detoured to the retreat route of the defenders, and carried out surprise attacks on the retreating army, which was even more effective.

An Jiajun's response is: active defense, defense and counterattack!

The focus of active defense is to eliminate the threat of the Japanese flanks and force the Japanese to attack frontally in our defense, so as to inflict maximum casualties on the Japanese army, while the focus of the defensive counterattack is to break the combined attack posture of the Japanese army. The first step is to accurately calculate the time when the Japanese troops will set off, and quickly retreat when the enemy's roundabout troops are halfway through, so as to lure the Japanese frontal troops into a strong attack in advance; The second step is to let the enemy attack the troops approach our army, and then crush the attacking enemy with rapid movements; The third step is to chase after the retreating enemy to cause even more confusion among the enemy. In this way, the Japanese offensive was self-defeating.

Moreover, with the will to fight of the An Jiajun, even if the last person fights, he will not surrender, war is originally a game of wrestling wrists, to see who can hold out to the end, if anyone takes the initiative to give up, who will lose nothing.

But in the eyes of Westerners, it seems natural to see an enemy retreat or surrender, and this is the huge difference between Eastern and Western cultures.
