Chapter 207: Commander Chiang's reaction

When Dai Li sent the information that the Japanese Kwantung Army would attack Northeast China in mid-September, Commander Chiang was busy with his second plan to suppress the Communists.

At this time, Commander Jiang was facing the situation map of the enemy and us, and his brows were deeply locked. Just a few days ago, the Jiangxi communist army suddenly disappeared in the Donggu area, and the strength of more than a dozen divisions of its own had just laid out the encirclement. I am considering which two divisions to send to Donggu first to test it.

There are also tens of thousands of bandits, and if there are more people sent by themselves, they will run, and if they send less, they will be eaten, and the army cannot act together. This will cause the encirclement that has been arranged with great difficulty to create a hole in the hole. After thinking about it, it is better to send two divisions at one time to advance at the same time, as long as there is no disconnection between the front and the back, sooner or later the main force of the communist army can be found and surrounded and annihilated.

Commander Jiang showed a rare smile and motioned for Dai Li to come in. Dai Li immediately walked quickly to Commander Jiang: "Li Tie from the Northeast is calling. After speaking, he handed the telegram in his hand to Commander Chiang.

Commander Jiang was still a little puzzled, taking advantage of the fact that the Japanese didn't have time to find Li Tie's hemp, why didn't he hurry to Shanghai? What are you doing in the Northeast?

Commander Chiang took the telegram and slowly looked at this so-called important document from within the Japanese Kwantung Army. Commander Jiang looked unhappy:

"It's really playing the piano randomly, what is Li Tie busy with? I went to the Northeast to avenge his father without permission, and killed hundreds of Japanese, I don't blame him, who made him my little fellow, who let him contribute to the party and the state.

But don't forget, he also holds a position in the National Food and Medicine Statistics Section, and he is also a government worker, and he went to the Northeast this time to get a good understanding of the grain production and the total population of various parts of the Northeast.

He didn't pay attention to these major events of the national economy and people's livelihood, but he went to spy on some military intelligence. Is this what he should do? That's what you did with Dai Li.

Besides, we haven't had a war with Japan yet, so what kind of military intelligence are you spying on for no reason? With that spare time, pay more attention to whether there is a communist party in the northeast, and how many places in the northeast have red people, isn't it good? ”

"But the principal, Li Tie is also very kind, how do we deal with this news? Is it to check it, or to notify the Northeast Army to let them take more precautions. Dai Li's kind words persuaded.

"Inform what? Let's not talk about the truth or falsity of this retribution, haven't the Japanese attacked yet? Could it be that because of such an unsubstantiated message, I will go up to the top with the Japanese?

This is an eternal truth, and it is also the basic common sense that every politician knows at least. Our biggest enemy now is the Red Bandits, and if we don't destroy the Red Bandits, we will lose our country.

Throughout Chinese history, which dynasty and which generation did not have internal strife first, and then external troubles. Are there many examples of civil strife that eventually lead to the invasion and occupation of foreign enemies?

The Yuan Dynasty replaced the Song Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty replaced the Ming Dynasty, and even our national army overthrew the Manchu Dynasty.

Now that our national government has finally sat down in the country, why should I delay my plan to suppress bandits for the sake of chasing after the wind and catching shadows? ”

Commander Jiang explained, Dai Li was speechless, Commander Jiang really liked Dai Li, and couldn't help mentioning him a few more words: "Yunong, you are still inexperienced, don't look at the surface when you encounter things, I just don't accept Li Tie's love, and there is a more important reason why I haven't told you." Is Zhang Xueliang's Northeast Army my troops? Do they listen to me? ”

When Dai Li heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "What did the principal say?" Is the principal trying to take the opportunity to weaken the Northeast Army? ”

"Shh Commander Jiang made a silent gesture: "Many things can only be understood but not spoken. Even if Li Tie's intelligence is true, the Japanese only have 20,000 people in the Northeast and Zhang Xueliang has more than 200,000, and the Japanese can't defeat the Northeast Army, so naturally they won't get the land they want.

Even if the Kwantung Army can temporarily defeat the Northeast Army, it won't occupy much space, think about it, the Northeast is so big, the Japanese only have more than 20,000 people, even if they send more troops to work on the expedition, how many people can they send?

Our National Revolutionary Army now has nearly 400,000 regular troops, as well as nearly 1 million troops from all over the country.

Not only can we defeat the Japanese army in one fell swoop, but we can also take the opportunity to annex the Northeast Army and take over the entire territory of the Northeast, and that time will be the beginning of the real reunification of our country. That's our chance to live forever. ”

"What the principal taught me is that Yunong has been taught." Dai Li's mouth finally opened.

"It's good that you understand. However, although we will not change our specific strategy because of Li Tie's news, you also have to increase intelligence gathering in the Northeast, I know that you have a very good deputy, and he has a very good intelligence base in the Northeast.

You might as well make use of it, maybe in the near future, we will really fight the Japanese army in the northeast, and at that time, we must know the Japanese army well in order to defeat the Kwantung Army more easily. Commander Jiang comforted Dai Li.

"But, Headmaster, what if we defeat the Kwantung Army and the Japanese don't give up and start an all-out war with us?" Dai Lian suddenly thought of this possibility.

"No, the Japanese don't have that much appetite and don't have that much ability, how many people are there for them, if it really comes to that day, I won't fight him, I will let all the Japanese in. Then, I slowly took it and killed the Japanese. "Commander Chiang's thoughts are a little self-righteous. It's a pity that many people in this day and age will have such thoughts.

"Then I understand a little, but after all, we only have a few hundred thousand regular troops, and if we fight a war of attrition with the Japanese, I am afraid that we will lose a lot." Dai Li is still worried about the lives of the soldiers of the Nationalist Army.

"You're just too kind-hearted. Did I say that I would use our soldiers to fight the Japanese? There are so many miscellaneous armies in the country, we can take some opportunity to consume their strength and then take the opportunity to clean them up. "Commander Chiang's ambition to annex all the warlords is immortal.

"But it wouldn't be good if these warlords fought well, not only were they not consumed, but they took the opportunity to grow stronger." Dai Li's question again.

"Yunong, you really have to read the war strategy when you have time. Intrigue is always a trail, but conspiracy is the avenue. Not to mention whether the warlords in this place can work together to fight the Japanese, with their two brushes, they also want to defeat the Japanese? That's impossible.

Even the Northwest Army, which is now the strongest in China. No matter how strong they are, if I don't provide them with guns, ammunition, food and grass supplies, will they still fight the Japanese with big blades?

What era is it now? Now it's the age of aircraft artillery, and personal bravery is useless. If there really is such a day, the Northwest Army will naturally be able to say anything after listening to my orders, otherwise it will not be able to blame me for stumbling on them behind my back. Commander Jiang said grimly.

"The students understand, thank you for the principal's teachings, the students must remember it and never forget it." Dai Li replied respectfully.

"Yu Nong, you are a talent, especially in intelligence gathering and hidden fronts, you are even more a genius, it can be said that with your ability, you must be more than just the position of the head of the military statistics section.

In a few years, when we have smoothed out the country, your department will become an investigation bureau sooner or later, and your ability is not only an investigation director, you can also do higher and better.

In short, I have high hopes for you, I hope you can cooperate well with Xu Enzeng, he supervises the political circles, you supervise the military circles, only the two of you are conscientious and work together, I can achieve political communication and harmony in the military and political circles.

Only then can I better discover my enemies, and be the first to know who is against me, who supports me, who is adamant about my orders, and who is deaf to my orders.

Only then will I be able to dodge the enemy's arrows from the shadows. Anyway, the more secrets you get, the safer I am, so the burden on you is heavy. Commander Jiang said earnestly.

"Principal, students will live up to the principal's entrustment, and they will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire." Dai Lian responded excitedly.

"How can I be willing to let you go to the soup and fire, I still hope to enjoy countless glory and wealth with you."

"Thank you, Principal, for your support."

"Okay, don't thank you anymore, go and get Li Tie back, so that he won't trouble me anymore. I'm busy. Commander Chiang waved his hand.

"Yes, Headmaster, I'll arrange it as soon as I go back." Dai Li saluted Commander Chiang and immediately returned to the Military Statistics Survey Section.

Commander Jiang watched Dai Li leave, and then slowly returned to the enemy situation map, looking at the map of the forces intertwined with the red bandits, Commander Jiang couldn't help but say fiercely:

"Hmph, I don't know where the rumors came that I, the commander-in-chief of the National Army, are only worthy of being a regimental commander. It is simply impossible to command a large corps to fight.

Niang Xipi, Lao Tzu fought in the north and south in his life, how many warlords did he defeat? How many opponents have you killed? Now that I have hundreds of thousands of elites under my command and millions of troops under my command, I actually said that I would not lead troops to fight?

When Xu Enzeng found out who released the rumor and let me catch him, I had to kill him with my own hands. As soon as Commander Jiang thought of the wind coming from nowhere, he was angry. As for what Li Tie said just now about Japan's attack on Northeast China, he forgot everything in a blink of an eye.

In this way, Li Tie's kindness was wasted. The wheel of history has not deviated from its original track at all. Due to the need for a large amount of supplies in Japan, the Kwantung Army in the northeast accelerated the speed of plundering the resources of the northeast. We have strengthened our confidence in seizing the Northeast at an early date.

Therefore, Li Tie made such a fuss in Tokyo, and some things may indeed have changed, but the general trend of history is still developing according to the original trajectory, just looking at the recent movements of the Kwantung Army in the Northeast, we know that the situation in the Northeast has become more and more severe.
