Chapter Seventy-Three: The Dragon Guard Army is born

[Ran^Text^Library] "Your Excellency Commander, after the 39th Mixed Brigade entered the northeastern territory of Country Z, it was ambushed by a Soviet Russian army with superior combat strength, and our troops suffered heavy losses, and the entire brigade and regiment tank units and artillery units were all reimbursed, and the rest of the infantry team also suffered heavy casualties. 'Raku' Wen 'Novel' Tatsujiro Kamura has high hopes and can only apologize with death! ”

Looking at the farewell message sent by Tatsujiro Kamura, the commander of the Japanese Army in Korea, Hayashi Miichiro, almost fell headlong, and the 39th Mixed Brigade took only one day from its departure to the return of the remnants. "Abominable Russians! What are they going to do? Aren't you afraid of causing a war between the two countries? Order the 19th Division to pay close attention to the dynamics of the Soviet and Russian troops on the border, and if necessary, it can strike first! The blood of the officers and men of the 39th Mixed Brigade cannot be shed in vain! The Russians must give us an explanation! ”

Soon after, after receiving the war report and letter of intent from Ichiro Hayashi, the Japanese ambassador to Soviet Russia, Changda, did not dare to slack off and immediately submitted a credential of protest to the Soviet Russian government.

"Is our army really operating in the Northeast?" Bearded said as he sat down in a large chair with a standard pipe in his mouth.

"Honorable General Secretary! Our troops in the Far East are now taking a break to thoroughly study and implement the spirit of the policy on the first five-year plan. Moreover, now that Western countries have stepped up their blockade and provocation against our red regime, you have repeatedly warned us that at this historical stage, we must vigorously develop and enhance our own strength, and absolutely must not engage in conflicts with neighboring countries. Our troops and soldiers are firmly in mind your teachings, how can they exchange fire with the Japanese! Dimitrov, secretary of the Secretariat of the Soviet Union, said cautiously.

"Then the Japanese said conclusively that there was a regiment of Soviet Russian soldiers holding our standard weapons in the territory of country Z and inflicting very heavy casualties on the 39th mixed brigade of the Japanese army stationed in Korea, what is going on?"

"I think it should be the forces of country Z that co-opted those white Russian soldiers who should have done it!"

"Hmmm! Well, make our attitude clear to the Japanese directly, and at the same time order Comrade Blyukher's Far Eastern Army to strictly monitor the situation of both sides and not to spread the flames of war to our territory! In the end, Stabeard made the final decision.

As a result, Garahan, deputy director of the People's Commissariat for Foreign Affairs of Soviet Russia, immediately sent a letter to the Japanese ambassador to the Soviet Union, Changtian, explaining Japan's protest. He also solemnly stated that the Soviet and Russian governments pursued a "strict policy of non-intervention" in the Z-Japanese conflict and did not provide any support to the warring parties. At the same time, it demanded that the Japanese side must respect the commercial interests of Soviet Russia in the Middle East Railway.

With the official statement of the head of Soviet Russia, the commander of the Japanese army in Korea, Hayashi Miichiro, and the commander of the Japanese Kwantung Army, Honjo Shigeru, breathed a sigh of relief, since the Soviet Russian army did not penetrate deep into the territory of country Z, then the Z** team alone could not resist their invasion.

But they never expected that a Z** team that would affect the world pattern in the future-the Dragon Guard Army would be born at this time.

At 16 o'clock on September 18, a clear-code telegram shocked the world.

"The 30 million fathers and elders of the Northeast, the 40,000 compatriots of the Z country at home and abroad, all the descendants of Yan and Huang, please open your eyes and take a closer look at the evil faces of the Dongying Wokou. At 6 o'clock on September 18, 1931, the Japanese Kwantung Army launched a despicable and shameless raid on our Beida camp without declaring war. Since the First Sino-Japanese Naval War, the Japanese thieves have not died in the heart of our Heavenly Empire, and a series of bloody killings by the Japanese pirates, such as the Lucheng Massacre, the Quancheng Bloody Case, and the Huanggutun Massacre, have all made their wolf ambitions clear! Now, the thieves have raised their butcher knives again, intending to put to death my 30 million Northeast fathers and villagers. However, Major Marshal Zhang and President Jiang Da in the Northeast issued an order not to resist, ordering our military and civilians in the Northeast to 'not resist, put their guns in the warehouse, stand up to death, and everyone will become benevolent and sacrifice for the country'! But how can there be no real heroes in China, how can they allow the Japanese to be ferocious? As a bloody citizen of country Z, I will never obey this kind of foolish order that betrays the interests of the country and the nation! As soon as this war began, there was no distinction between north and south, young and old, and no matter who was responsible, everyone had the responsibility to defend the land and resist the war. Fathers, fellow villagers, compatriots, the Northeast is in danger, the Chinese nation is in danger, and the bloody sons and daughters of Z Hua, for the safety of the country and the nation, please take up the weapons in your hands and fight! Fight! Fight! Swear to fight to the death against the invading thieves! I'd rather be a ghost who died in battle than a slave to the country! From now on, I Xu Haiyong officially broke away from the Northeast Army sequence and the Northeast Motoling hero Sun Feng officially established the Hualong Guard, welcome people with lofty ideals and heroes from all walks of life to join in, we will fight with the Japanese Japanese to the end! ”

In fact, when the Japanese Kwantung Army officially launched the war at 6 o'clock on the 18th, Mu Han had a telegram drawn up. After a day of development, nothing has deviated from the original projection...... Now the Northern Battalion and Mukden are still firmly in the hands of the Dragon Guard. Although most of the Northeast Army fled from Mukden without firing a single shot in accordance with Zhang Shaoshuai's instructions, under the influence of Mu Han's planning and the super combat power of the Longwei Army, many officers and soldiers of the Seventh Independent Brigade of the Northeast Army, more than 10,000 policemen in Fengtian, and other bloody officers and soldiers of the Northeast resolutely took up arms to join the Longwei Army resisting the Japanese invasion. However, in order to achieve the set goal and meet the more frantic attack of the Japanese, Mu Han still sent this telegram in the name of Xu Haiyong, deputy commander of the 621st Regiment of the former Independent Seventh Brigade of the Northeast Army, and Sun Feng, the Northeast Motianling.

Immediately afterwards, Mu Han personally signed in the name of the Commander-in-Chief of the Northwest Security, and sent a clear telegram ordering the 88th, 89th, and 90th Divisions of the National Revolutionary Army to join the Hualong Guards to support the Northeast War of Resistance.

Huang Qiwei, commander of the Sixth Dragon Division, announced that he would join the Hualong Guard Army in the name of the Suiyuan Baocheng Security Regiment.

In the name of the Hardorun Security Regiment, the commander of the Third Dragon Division, Qiao Feicha announced that he would join the Z Hualong Guard.

Zhao Yu, commander of the 109th Brigade of the 19th Division of the 29th Army of the National Revolutionary Army, announced that he would join the Hualong Guard.

So far, the 5 telegrams sent in a row have made the Japanese army and all domestic forces dumbfounded! Roughly calculated, this dragon guard army that came out of nowhere had nearly 100,000 horses in just one hour. If you want to say that there is no premeditation, the ghost does not believe it.

The study of the young marshal's mansion in Beijing.

Zhang Shaoshuai's face was iron-blue. The first telegram sent by Mu Han simply turned him into a sinner for the ages without bones.

"Xu Haiyong, the anti-bone thief, did not obey the order and led the crowd to mutiny, and he mistook me! And that Zhao Yu, what kind of coaxing is he following in Suiyuan? ”

"Young marshal, it's not easy here! The commander-in-chief of the Northwest Security actually led 3 divisions to join the so-called Dragon Guard, and no one believed it. Will he join a makeshift team of deputy commanders and bandits? Ji Yiqiao, deputy chief of staff of the Northeast Army, said calmly.

"You're saying they were premeditated?"

"Yes, I'm afraid they did what happened to Fengtian and Lucheng last night!"

Zhang Shaoshuai was furious and slapped the table, "What do they want to do?" Japan is so easy to provoke? ”

In the middle of the ring, a voice suddenly sounded, "No matter what their purpose is, just because they dare to fight the Japanese, it is a bit heroic!" The door of the study was pushed open from the outside, and in came a tall, graceful young woman, with large beautiful eyes full of concern and worry.

"Qixia! What do you mean by that? Zhang Shaoshuai frowned. The person who came was Miss Zhao Si.

"Young Marshal, I never ask about your military and political affairs." Miss Zhao Si said softly affectionately: "But, with all due respect to my exception today, such a big thing happened in Fengtian, I have something to say." ”

"Please!" Zhang Shaoshuai was slightly stunned and said in a deep voice.

"That big brother of yours in Nanjing is afraid that you will be trapped for being unkind, unjust, disloyal and unfilial!" Miss Zhao Si's words were amazing.

"Ahh What do you mean by that? ”

"President Chiang Da probably knew that the Japanese were going to attack the northeast, but he has always stressed to you that you must take into account the overall situation, obey the unified arrangements of the central authorities, and ask you not to engage in armed conflict with the Japanese. But young marshal, you must not forget that the Northeast is your Northeast, and it is unkind to let the Japanese invade the people of the Northeast and ignore it; It is unjust to order the officers and men of the Northeast Army not to resist and let the Japanese army kill them; It is disloyal for a soldier to defend the territory and not to ignore the interests of the country and the nation; Those who kill their fathers for their sons and do not take revenge are unfilial! Han Qing, what kind of eyes do you let the whole world look at you? Being infamous for being unkind, unjust, disloyal, and unfilial, what prestige do you still have to gain a foothold in the military and political circles? If the Japanese fully occupy Northeast China, in such a situation, it is only reasonable for President Chiang to push you out in order to find a scapegoat. At that time, he will revoke your military power, and then use means to buy the main generals of the Northeast Army, what else do you have? ”

"Qixia, you don't understand politics, you don't understand." Zhang Shaoshuai shook his head helplessly and sighed: "The Japanese have long had the heart to seize the Northeast, and at this time, everyone knows about it. Recently, they have repeatedly sought quarrels and provoked troubles in order to provoke military conflicts under the pretext that they can openly increase their troops to the northeast and expand the territory they control in the northeast. But what about our country? The eldest brother has just taken over the power of the leader of the country, and the whole country has been nominally unified, and last year's Central Plains War has greatly damaged the vitality of the entire country. Although our Northeast Army took the opportunity to take over most of the territory of the former Northwest Army, and it seemed that we had maximized our interests, in fact, the Northeast Army also had a great hidden danger because of this, and if it did not have the support of the Nanjing government to raise the strength of the whole country to fight the Japanese army, how could we rely on our northeastern provinces alone to be the opponent of the entire Japanese country with all the soldiers of the whole country? You must know that many officers and men of our Northeast Army have received Japanese-style military training, and we are very clear about the combat effectiveness and military quality of the Japanese army. We can't beat the Japanese at all. If I had given the order to resist, the whole country would have been in dire straits. My Northeast Army is running out, what foothold do I have? If the eldest brother orders a war, he will definitely lose a large area of land in the early stage, and at that time, some people with ulterior motives will definitely stand up and make trouble, and the position of the eldest brother will not be guaranteed! Our nation needs time to recuperate and prepare for future wars. As a matter of fact, the Japanese are also not ready for all-out war, and their opinions in the military and political circles in the country are not unanimous, so the order of the eldest brother and I not to resist is not to give them an excuse and opportunity to reach a consensus and start a war in advance! ”

"However, the Japanese have launched a military invasion of Mukden, and many places have already been occupied by them?"

"That's why I said those bastards misunderstood me! If everyone does not resist and do not fight back, it is impossible for the Japanese to escalate and expand this military conflict, at best it is only a local emergency, and it is completely possible to let the League of Nations mediate through diplomatic means, but now, the Japanese have suffered a big loss last night, which makes the Nanjing government become very passive, and reasonable has become unreasonable. ”

"Young marshal, I am very optimistic about you and your eldest brother pinning their hopes on the mediation of the League of Nations. Foreigners don't have a good thing! ”

"Yes, all foreigners want a piece of the pie in our land. It is precisely because of this that the British and American powers will not watch their interests in China be violated by the Japanese. Therefore, what we need to do now is to refrain from allowing this military conflict to expand again. As for those who are clamoring, sooner or later we will have to clean them up! ”

Nanjing Ministry of Defense.

"Mu Han, a white-eyed wolf, really disregards the righteousness of the nation-state. If you provoke the Japanese, no one will have good fruit to eat! President Jiang Da was also angry.

"The principal is wise, Mu Han is a stunned young man! When he and the Japanese meet and break the bloodstream, you will know the hard work of the principal! He Yingqin had a strange smile on his face.

"I think this Mu Han has a great plan. Now he has intervened in the northeast, and almost the entire north of Gan, Ning, Chacha, and Sui has his infiltration! Yang Yongtai looked pensive.

"Does he still want the north to be king?" President Chiang was furious!

"It's not impossible, his move, it's not possible to divide the world in China!"

"The beauty of thinking! Order to continue to intensify the encirclement and suppression of the SPD! The herald ordered Young Marshal Zhang to closely monitor the dynamics of the Dragon Guard, but there was a mistake, and it was immediately wiped out! ”

The war room of the Kwantung Army Command. Shigeru Honjo, Seishiro Itagaki, Ishihara Waner, and a group of operational staff officers gathered in a room to urgently discuss the Mukden war situation.

"What is the origin of this Dragon Guard, these powered-ups add up to tens of thousands of Dragonguards! Don't underestimate that! Now Mukden has still not been captured, and the progress of other people and horses is not fast, and roads and railways have been repeatedly destroyed! The situation is not good! Honzhuang Fan's face was solemn, and he walked to the sand table and said coldly: "Our troops in Manchuria, the regular army, the soldiers in the township, and the police have all been mobilized now. General Hayashi Miichiro's 39th Mixed Brigade suffered heavy losses, and now only two divisions in Korea were able to quickly support us. These forces want to occupy the entire Northeast, and they are seriously insufficient! ”

Ishihara Wan'er smiled and said, "Your Excellency Commander, what you said is indeed the truth, but the Dragon Guard Army is only one regiment in the northeast plus some bandit forces, and it can't affect the overall situation. The Dragon Guard Army in the northwest can't be pulled out at all! According to the reliable information we have, President Chiang of the China government has clearly instructed Zhang Shaoshuai not to resist, and Zhang Shaoshuai has faithfully carried out his orders. The military clashes that took place in Mukden were nothing more than a mutiny by individual radical Northeast officers and soldiers. The troops of the Northeast Army in Manchuria have all received orders from Zhang Xueliang not to resist, so Your Excellency the Commander does not have to worry, as long as we eat Xu Haiyong's regiment, we can occupy Mukden, and then occupy the whole of Manchuria! ”

Honjo pondered silently for a while, then hesitated and said, "The cabinet has clearly instructed us that the empire is not ready for a full-scale war at present, and that once we expand the war and occupy the entire Manchuria, international public opinion will be very unfavorable to the empire. ”

Seishiro Itagaki said calmly: "The great powers will only pay attention to their respective interests, and the military conflict in Manchuria, for them, will not harm their vested interests at all, and Soviet Russia has made it clear. As long as we form established facts, no one can help us! ”

"Your Excellency Commander, General Hayashi Miichiro has called, and tomorrow there will be a flying squadron to support our Mukden operation. At the same time, the 19th Division withdrew from the Soviet-Russian border and turned to the northeast, and the 20th Division had entered the northeast to cooperate with our operations. "A communications soldier came in a hurry.

"Good! Order the 2nd Division to quickly assemble in Mukden and launch a general attack tomorrow! Honjo Shigeru took the telegram and finally made up his mind.
