Chapter 456: Mid-Autumn Festival Conspiracy
Qian Tianwei picked up a slender wooden military map and drew it, and Fu "Zhuli everyone is doing the commentary.
"In the 1st year of AD, Japan defeated the Manchu court. and tried to annex North Korea. However, because the Russian power was still strong in Korea, Japan could only take the strategy of encroachment for the time being, and in the autumn of that year, Japan launched an incident in Korea. The killing of pro-Russian North Korean officials, the North Korean Leap Concubine clique lost power, and the pro-Japanese Kim Hongji clique was propped up. At the end of that year, the Japanese government, through the pro-Japanese faction, issued the so-called "Hair Cutting Order", which provoked the anger of the Korean people, "the Volunteer Movement." This broke out, and the following year, Kim Hongji was killed, and the pro-Japanese clique in North Korea was overthrown, "Volunteer Movement." The silence continued, and the rebel armies were disbanded on the spot.
In the 1st year of AD, Japan defeated Russia. He was the sole leader of Korea, and forced Korea to sign the "Otomi Protection Treaty" that year, officially turning Korea into a Japanese protectorate, and the diplomatic relations between China and Korea ended, but the Korean people were not willing to be slaves of the country, and organized an insurrectionary army again, "The Volunteer Movement, Revival, from that year until now, the rebels in various parts of Korea have swarmed, and the Japanese colonial authorities are exhausted." However, with the increase in the deployment of Japanese troops and the acquiescence of the European and American powers to Japan's colonization of Korea, the Korean rebel army was no longer able to support it, and now the rebel army in the southern part of Korea has been unable to gain a foothold and is moving towards the mountainous areas of northern Korea, and the strength of the rebel army in northern Korea is even weaker
Speaking of which. Lan Tianwei points a wooden stick at the China-North Korea border on the map.
"Since the end of the Russo-Japanese War, the northeastern part of our country has been in turmoil, bandits have sprung up everywhere, and the social order is very chaotic. In the aftermath of the revolution, the situation on the ground became further chaotic due to the southward movement of a large number of troops1. And the Japanese government tried in vain to take this opportunity to annex the southern part of the northeast in one fell swoop. "Eight flags outside the gate, jumping up and down from the place. In fact, it was the instigation of the Japanese government and the military department, "but due to the opposition of the United States, Britain, and other European and American powers, the Japanese government did not dare to make up its mind to carry out their adventurous actions."
If the Korean rebels retreat into the territory of our country. It will only exacerbate the chaotic situation in the Tohoku region, and Japan can also use this as an excuse to continue to send more troops and heavy equipment in the land borrowed by Lu Dazu, so, in my opinion, no matter what. At present, the Korean rebels will not be allowed to retreat into our territory, if necessary. Japan can directly supply weapons and ammunition to the Korean rebels to support them in their anti-Japanese struggle. On this point, I agree with the President. ”
Lan Tianwei put down the wooden stick and asked the adjutant for a booklet, which was placed on the map, and the real person looked at it fixedly, but saw a few block letters written on the booklet: guerrilla warfare.
The high-ranking officers present basically knew that this "guerrilla warfare" booklet was actually written by Zhao Bei himself, and the content mainly talked about how to conduct a small force attack and harassment war in the enemy-occupied area. In the past, everyone thought that this was Zhao Bei's preparation to meet the invading foreign ** team on Chinese soil, but now it seems that Zhao Bei intends to experiment with this tactic on North Korean soil first.
Guerrilla warfare is relatively demanding on the terrain, and the southern part of Korea has many plains, where it is very difficult to carry out guerrilla warfare, but the northern part of Korea is different, where there are many mountainous areas, which are very suitable for the requirements of guerrilla warfare.
"I will now formally hand over this pamphlet to the Korean aspirants, and I hope that you will translate it into Korean as soon as possible, and once the pamphlet is printed in bundles and enters the territory of Korea, then, perhaps, it will not be long before the Japanese army will taste the taste of guerrilla warfare in Korea."
Zhao Bei picked up the booklet and shook it at everyone, and then threw it in front of Shen Guizhi.
The translator translated Cho Bei's words into Korean, but many North Korean readers knew Chinese characters, and even if they didn't translate it, they could understand the contents of the booklet, and now Shin Gye-sik, Cho Seong-hwan and others are reading it.
"Excuse me, Mr. President, how many rifles and cannons can you give us?" Cao Chengzhi asked in a stiff Chinese official dialect.
Zhao Bei glanced at the other party, and then nodded to Lan Tianwei.
The Blue Sky Blue Heart Leaders Association said to the North Koreans: "The first batch of military supplies to aid the Korean rebels were mostly rifles, a total of 20,000 rifles, including 10,000 Japanese-made old-fashioned rifles and 5,000 Russian-made new rifles. The other 5,000 were miscellaneous guns from various countries, many of which were old American guns. For now. We have done our best, after all, China's defense forces are also facing a lack of weapons. In addition, the assistance to the Korean rebels can only be carried out in secret, and we cannot hand over a large number of Chinese-made rifles to you, as I hope you can understand. small
"Thank you so much, Mr. President. Mr. President's kindness to the country is firmly in mind for the people of the country. Cao Chengzhi and others bowed to Zhao Bei again.
Zhao Bei smiled faintly and said, "You don't have to be polite. Japan is the common enemy of Korea and China, and a single country confronts Japan. It will be broken by each one. But if the two countries join forces to deal with Japan, then the final victory will be ours. In addition, since Ito Hirobumi was assassinated to death by Mr. Yasushigene, a righteous man of your country, there is now a lot of turmoil in Japan, and the Japanese military department is clamoring to use this as an excuse to "destroy Korea" and formally annex Korea to Japan. If you want your motherland to fall one by one, you must act as soon as possible." The small suggestion is that you should make a careful plan to launch a major anti-Japanese uprising in the northern and southern parts of Korea at the same time, use the guns and bullets we support you to deal a heavy blow to the Japanese colonists, eliminate those pro-Japanese officials, paralyze the grassroots ruling organs of the Japanese colonial authorities, and strive to establish base areas in areas where your own forces are dominant, so that the anti-Japanese war will become a prairie fire. Don't worry about you going it alone. Behind you stand us, standing China. There are 40,000 people of China standing. There are also many patriots like you and me."
The president's speech moved several North Koreans to tears, and Cho Sung-sik struck while the iron was hot, making a request that he didn't think was excessive.
"Now that Ahn Chong-geun is being held in a prison in your country, can Mr. President order him to be released quietly, and we will send him back to North Korea and ask him to be our leader."
Zhao Bei shook his head at Cao Chengzhi's request and simply refused.
"It's a pity. Now that China has achieved a republic, "the rule of law has become the goal pursued by our politicians." I admire Yasu's view of death, but I cannot use this to undermine the goal of the rule of law in my country, since the assassination of Hirobumi Ito is under our jurisdiction. Therefore, the trial of Yahn Chonggen will still be carried out in accordance with the procedure. However, I can assure you that the trial of the righteous man Ahn Chonggen will be just; Even if he can't be your military leader. At least be your spiritual idol
Zhao Bei's guarantee relieved these North Korean aspirants, and everyone discussed the specific division of labor and cooperation. Then, the military meeting ended, and the Korean warriors followed Tian Jinyu and left first.
When the North Koreans left, Huang Xingcai asked Zhao Bei a few words.
"President Junjian. Will such strong support for the Korean independence movement at this time anger the Japanese government? Is it necessary to consult the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on this matter? ”
Zhao Bei shook his head. He said: "Keqiang, the conflict of interests between China and Japan is irreconcilable, and Japan now wants to expand its interests in China, and it will never stop because of our compromises." If we take a step back, Japan will go one step further, and in this way, we will soon have no way back. Britain, France, Russia, Germany, and the United States, these countries are different from Japan, Japan is too close to us, and the strategic focus of the Japanese government is on the East Asian continent, so I can reach a compromise with the European and American powers, or even make concessions, but I will never compromise and make concessions to Japan, this is a matter of principle, but it is also a matter of strategy. As for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, let them stay in the dark. In this case, when the Japanese government asks questions in the future, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs can also act more realistically
Huang Xing nodded. didn't say anything more, and was about to say goodbye and leave, but was stopped by Zhao Bei.
"Keqiang, I heard that your alliance had a very famous pen some time ago, called Dai Jitao? Where is this person now?
"The president has also heard of this person? This person joined the League after the revolution, and has been in Fuzhou ever since, and he ran away from Fujian to Beijing a few days ago, and now he lives in Li Huangling's mansion, and Li Huangling appreciates him very much. I plan to ask him to be a senior political adviser to the Senate, and I met him at the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner held by Congress just now
"Oh? Since Li Huangzu wants to reuse him, then, I won't rob Speaker Li. ”
"The president suddenly asked about this person, what is the matter?"
Seeing that Zhao Bei wanted to speak and stopped, Huang Xing asked.
"It's nothing.
Although Yang Zhezi has a good literary talent, he has other things to do, so I would like to find a few young people who know more about modern politics to act as pen sticks, and translate some of my theories into words to inspire the people
"I see. If the president really wants to find a few pens, the contemptible people can recommend a few, those few are now idle and panicked, and because they don't have an official position, they are also full of complaints, complaining to me all day long, and then they come over to eat, I am about to be poor by them, since there is a lack of literary people around the president, those people are quite suitable, and they can work next to the president, presumably they have no complaints, Huang Xing said with a smile.
"Okay, you get those people quickly, and I'll talk to them first."
Zhao Bei nodded. In fact, Huang Xing is right, due to the outbreak of the "Guangdong Incident", the League has become a political group that everyone avoids, and under this kind of discrimination, it is difficult for many people from the League to find a suitable position in the political arena, and some complaints are understandable.
Now, the president has reached out to these politically frustrated people, and they must all be grateful to Dade.
Now Zhao Bei's descendant strength is not enough, whether it is political power or military power, it needs to continue to accumulate, after the "Guangdong Incident", the League is already a zombie, now, it is a good time for Zhao Bei to expand his political strength, and, judging from Huang Xing's recent performance, even the veteran of this alliance is aware of the drastic changes in domestic politics, and he obviously chooses to stand on the side of the president.
Not sparing every potential ally, that's how power is integrated.
