Chapter 208: Showing Weakness to the Enemy

"It is useless to threaten me, although the security army is weak, there are 450,000 people, although Chahar is poor, there are also millions of people, and behind my Chahar, there are tens of thousands of Chinese, if the 8th Division attacks Chahar, I will let him see what a people's war is." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

"Commander Li, your news is weakened, our government is negotiating with the Soviet government about Japan-Soviet cooperation on the Mongolian issue, without the Soviet Union's constraints, the more than 100,000 Kwantung Army is useless, presumably they are very willing to go to Chahar to see Commander Li's so-called people's war."

Lost field laughed. The reason for the tension between Japan and the Soviet Union has always been because the Kwantung Army constantly provoked friction in the border area of the Soviet-Japanese garrison, and there was even no shortage of small-scale military conflicts.

Once the Japanese government plans to attack Chahar with all its might, as long as the Kwantung Army is somewhat stable, the Soviets will naturally not have nothing to do, and it will definitely be no problem to send a division to attack Chahar.

However, in Japan, everyone from the emperor to the soldiers consciously believed that it was more than enough to have the Eighth Division to deal with the security army.

The Soviets are really not a good thing, and now the Germans have not invaded them, and the Japanese have relaxed their harassment a little and have begun to fucking sell out the interests of China.

"What does Mr. Okita want me to do?" Although Li Han had already made a decision in his heart, he still wanted to see what kind of conditions the Japanese would propose.

"It's very simple, first, publicly apologize to the Japanese Empire, admitting that it was the security forces who took the initiative to attack our army; Second, all the police officers involved in this time were handed over to the Imperial Consulate for processing, and the main officers must be removed from their posts and investigated;

Third, return the 30,000 catties of silver that were withheld by our merchants, and compensate 5 million silver dollars as pensions for the soldiers killed in the war of the Empire;

Fourth, the Guyuan, Duolun, and Longmen areas were turned into demilitarized zones, and the security forces were not allowed to station troops in the three places in any form, and the troops of the Imperial Japanese Army could enter and leave these three places at will; The strength of the Fifth Security Army was reduced to less than 20,000 men. Oda said unceremoniously.

"It's too much to do, and I need to think about it for a few days." Li Han said with a serious face: "Also, five million silver dollars is too much, and less than two hundred people died in your country in this conflict, which is equivalent to more than 20,000 silver dollars in compensation for each soldier."

Even if your soldiers were minted in silver, they were not worth so many silver dollars, and Chahar could not afford it at all, and in addition, the smuggled silver confiscated by the police station was only 3,000 catties, not 30,000 catties in the mouth of the consul who lost his land.

The last one is non-negotiable, and I can promise you all the other conditions, but it is absolutely impossible to reduce the army. In addition to you Japanese, Yan Xishan, Shang Zhen, and Song Zheyuan may all be enemies of our security army, and without the protection of the army, they are undoubtedly digging their own graves. ā€

"Yo Xi, before this, I had always heard that Commander Li was a fierce general in the national army, and his combat effectiveness was extremely strong, and now I see Commander Li's performance, it's just Er'er! Hahaha!

The matter of compensation needs to be discussed, but Commander Li only has a week, otherwise I can't guarantee that the Imperial soldiers will not directly kill Chahar and use their cannons and bayonets to shame the sacrificed Imperial soldiers. ā€

Seeing that Li Han seemed to be ready to succumb, he laughed arrogantly, and then walked away in front of everyone.

"Bold, dare to talk to the military seat like this, I think you are looking for death!" Jin Long said angrily, his eyes were fixed on the lost field, if it was in other places, it might have been destroyed by the golden dragon with a shot now.

Not only Jin Long, but also the rude and arrogant behavior of the landless made all the officials present very angry, and they all turned pale.

In China, there has always been a saying that 'the lord humiliates the minister to death', and Li Han, as the controller of Chahar, can be said to be the master of Chahar, and they are so humiliated by the Japanese that their faces are not honorable.

Ignoring the Golden Dragon's threat, he just glanced at the angry Golden Dragon and the indignant government officials in the audience, and chuckled lightly at the corner of his mouth.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you can hear the conditions of the Japanese, so go back and think about it. The so-called sky-high asking price, sitting on the ground to pay the money, we can't accept this condition put forward by the Japanese, so you have to think carefully about how to bargain with the Japanese.

Chairman Wang, Director Shi, and Director Yan will stay for a while, and the others will go back first. After Lost Field left, Li Han said to the officials present.

"Junzao, that lost field is so arrogant, why don't you let me shoot him."

After the meeting ended, Jin Long pursed his lips and asked Li Han with a face full of grievances, he was really angry with the old devil who had just lost his field, and he had never seen anyone dare to speak like Li Han.

"Okay, don't be like this wronged resentful woman, can killing a Japanese diplomat solve the problem, the loss of land is just a mouthpiece of the Japanese, and besides, my loss of land is still useful to me." Li Han scolded with a smile.

"Gunza, what are you going to do, you don't really plan to be soft like the Japanese just said?"

The person who spoke was Wang Wei, Li Han had always been to the death of the Japanese, and today he even said in front of government officials that he would consider the harsh conditions put forward by the loss of land, and if there was no conspiracy in this, Wang Wei would never believe it.

"I asked you and the two directors to stay, just for this matter, I will not accept any of the Japanese conditions, and I did not refute it on the spot, but I just wanted to use him to create an illusion for the Japanese government that we were preparing for peace talks.

The next thing you have to do is to pacify the people of Chahar, and at the same time mobilize the resources of the whole province to do a good job in the logistics of the security forces. ā€

The harsher the conditions for the loss of land, the more favorable it was for Li Han, and only in this way could he arouse the dissatisfaction of the Chahar people against the Japanese, and Li Han was not afraid to make this matter bigger, because he had already decided to fight with the Japanese.

The Japanese are cheap bones, if they show weakness, the more they like to inch in, on the contrary, the attitude of the security army is tougher, the Japanese will have some scruples.

"I said how did the military seat change its character, it turned out to be the idea of losing the field, since the military seat already has a plan, the provincial government should fully cooperate with the troops to fight this battle."

Although the war will definitely seriously affect the development of Chahar, isn't it just to increase Chahar's war potential that these people are working so hard to develop Chahar? If there is no war, they want to develop Chahar into a paradise, but only if.

"Junza, the Eighth Division has already sent two brigades of troops in the direction of Longmen, and there are also a large number of Japanese troops gathering in Duolun and Guyuan, it is obvious that the Japanese are putting pressure on us to agree to their demands."

Gao Jian's face was solemn and he introduced the latest situation of the Japanese to Li Han.

Although Li Han had promised that Oda would consider their conditions, the Japanese would definitely listen to Li Han's words and wait for Li Han's decision stupidly. In addition, the Japanese have always liked to use force to force the government of the Republic of China or local governments to comply, and they have had many successful cases in this regard.

"I know that the devil will definitely not settle down. Hum! Come on, the more people the better, let the 145th Division assemble in batches at Longguan, and the main forces of the 145th Division must all arrive at Longguan within a week. Remind the old regiment commander to pay attention to concealment and not let the Japanese find out. ā€

Li Han said.

"Let the 145th Division assemble at Longguan, is the military seat trying to keep the Japanese army out of Longguan, so as to reduce the impact of the war on Chahar?"

Gao Jian asked, long before the loss of land arrived in Chahar, Li Han had already transferred the artillery regiment of the military headquarters to Longguan, and asked the 145th Division to assemble in Longguan, and now the strength in the direction of Longguan has exceeded 20,000, so Gao Jian will have this question.

"Did the chief of staff think about why we had to choose the battlefield in Chahar, and since we already knew that the Japanese would definitely attack Chahar, why did we sit idly by? The first strike is stronger, and the second attack suffers, so I decided to strike first and let the security forces attack Rehe. ā€

Whether it is to put the Japanese army into Chahar to fight, or to block them at Longguan to fight, it will inevitably cause incalculable losses to Chahar.

Moreover, passively waiting for the Japanese army to attack, the initiative has always been in the hands of the Japanese, which is very unfavorable to the security forces.

"Although the idea of the military seat is bold, it is undeniable that it is a good choice for our security forces.

However, since the military seat was already planning to attack the Japanese first, why not attack now, but wait until the date set by Okita? Gao Jian asked puzzled.

"The reason is very simple, the number of Japanese troops in Longguan is not enough for me to do it, the 145th Division and the troops directly under the military headquarters add up to more than 30,000 people, and the Japanese army in Longguan has less than 3,000 troops.

If it was before the army changed clothes, I would have done it a long time ago, but now, hum! I concentrated eighty or ninety cannons in Longguan, is it just to deal with the devils of these two brigades? ā€

Li Han concentrated three-quarters of the artillery and more than half of the troops of the whole army, just to eat the Japanese army outside Longguan in one bite.

However, at such a big cost, if you only eat two brigades of Japanese soldiers, it will be too cost-effective. There is only one such opportunity, and Li Han certainly wants to maximize his interests.

"No wonder the military seat did not refuse the unreasonable request of losing the field on the spot that day, at that time, the military seat was probably already planned, deliberately paralyzing the Japanese carelessly.

Now he still thinks that the military seat is no different from the warlords in other parts of the country, and he just wants to establish his own independent kingdom, and he doesn't dare to fight them. Gao Jian said with a smile.

"This is exactly what I want to see, the Japanese have always looked down on us Chinese, I am afraid they never dreamed that our army would take the initiative to attack them." When he said this, Li Hanzhen didn't know whether he should be happy or sad, the Japanese would be so unpopular in China, and in the final analysis, the gap between the Republic of China and his Japan is too big.
