Chapter 84: The Decision Has Been Made
"Okay, do it, Zhang Xueliang doesn't take the foundation outside the gate seriously, let's do it ourselves, it's better to ask for others than for ourselves." Huang Guodong gritted his teeth and said, "But you have to give me enough things, otherwise I won't have a clue to start empty-handed." ”
"Well, I have already asked the Fengtian side to make every effort to control the carriage before, and this time the Second Provincial Defense Brigade will come to Fengtian, and there will be tens of thousands of horses and hundreds of cattle. Although the transportation capacity is still insufficient, the Japanese army in Mukden City will not want to fight down for a few months, I will drag the main force of the Japanese army on the front line, and you will transport things in the rear, even if the Japanese army finally conquers Mukden, nothing will be left for them. ”
"That's right, that's what we do, to let the Japanese know our determination." Huang Guodong clenched his fists when he heard this, and said excitedly.
"In addition, North China is a flat river, there is no danger to defend, and it can't stop the Japanese planes and artillery at all, and it will be a little difficult for us to start in northern Shaanxi, as long as we stand on our feet, if the Japanese army wants to fight again, it will be even more difficult. As long as this batch of machinery is re-produced, we will continue to arm the army to fight the Japanese army to the end. ”
Jiang Li said bewildermently, withdraw the materials in advance, Jiang Li is also thoughtful, the Northeast produces grain, and Fengtian has enough grain, but it can't stand the huge consumption. We must rush to northern Shaanxi before next year's spring ploughing, otherwise we will be empty and no amount of grain will be able to catch up with consumption. In troubled times, if you want to have enough cheap labor, you must also build up enough food reserves. Otherwise, the laborers who have been evacuated to northern Shaanxi alone will have as many as tens of thousands, plus the employees of the arsenal, their families, and the army that has been expanding one after another, at least more than 100,000 people, who eat and chew, how can there be so much food to consume.
"Where do you start with that? How do we protect the supplies we transport along the way? Huang Guodong immediately entered the state and put forward two extremely crucial points.
"It's not suitable for Fengtian to start shipping immediately, I grabbed a batch of equipment from Anshan, and transported these equipment away first, the garrison on the Tongliao side has been withdrawn to Jinzhou, and there are only a small number of troops left, I will arrange some soldiers and horses for you, and transport things to Tongliao as a transit for the time being, mainly Anshan's machinery and grain."
Jiang Li smiled slightly, if it starts to be transported from this time, the time is barely enough, and the shortage of troops in the addition of the 2nd Provincial Defense Brigade has also been slightly alleviated, and the police force that Huang Xiansheng has summoned from all over the country, the number of troops that Jiang Li can call in his hands will soon reach more than 30,000. In addition, there is a cantonment brigade brought by Zou Zuohua from Xing'an Tun.
There are also a large number of trained new troops, and more importantly, at this time, the cement and masonry factories in Mukden are seizing the time to repair the fortifications, and with the sufficient supply of arms, it is no longer a luxury to hold Fengtian for a few months. After all, it takes time for the large-scale mobilization of the Japanese army, and Jiang Li is not sitting on the side of Fengtian City, at this time, the gap between the equipment of the Northeast Army and the Japanese army has not widened to the point of a full-scale war of resistance.
While collecting the transportation capacity, the grain was transported away from the dismantled machinery on the Anshan side. After completing the first step, the capacity will be released to other places, in short, after the 2nd Provincial Defense Brigade is incorporated, this game of chess can be regarded as a little revitalized.
"Tuanza!" When passing by the Marshal's Mansion, Ma Zhuang came up with two soldiers from afar.
"You kid, you won't be here for a few days, there's a new mission." Jiang Li said with a smile, "Give you three battalions first, if you pull up the team, you will be the seat of the eight forbidden regiments." ”
"What? What rank did you promote? Ma Zhuang's eyes lit up, but he asked again feeling a little inappropriate.
"Me? For the time being, I guess it's the acting brigade commander. Jiang Li laughed, this time the annexation of the 2nd Provincial Defense Brigade, coupled with the expansion of the new army, so many large and small soldiers in their hands are placed under one brigade, which is much more exaggerated than a mixed brigade of the Japanese army.
"Then call you a brigade." Ma Zhuang smiled, and then asked in a low voice, "Tuanzao, what are the new tasks?" ”
"Take the three battalions in your hand, go to the Japanese mining area in Benxi, and take the laborers there to dismantle all the machinery and transport it to Mukden City. Then there was the Fushun Coal Mine, and all the laborers had to be brought over and all the property of the Manchurian Iron Company in Mukden would be confiscated. ”
Jiang Li had a smug smile on his face, what could the Japanese army do, no matter how much they could fight, they couldn't stop him from turning the foundation of Japan's years of struggle in the northeast into nothing. Even if it is the South Manchurian Road, before retreating to the west, it will have to blow up most of it, and it will take two or three years to rebuild these railways no matter how fast it is, and this is still without interference.
Before repairing the railway, Jiang Li also won a breather of respite for the anti-Japanese troops in Jilin and Heilongjiang. It is impossible for the Japanese army to succeed in purging the anti-Japanese forces in the northeast as it has done in history. This time has to be postponed for at least a year, or even two or three years.
"Okay, this kind of desperate job is the best."
Ma Zhuang's eyes lit up when he heard this, Huang Guodong was also a bold lord, and after hearing Jiang Li's words, he had a radiant look on his face. It can be seen that he agrees with Jiang Li's desperate plan. Ma Zhuang Jiang Li also thought about it, Ma Zhuang can push back the people sent by Yu Fengzhi to the Dashuai's Mansion, which shows that this guy is also a person who doesn't like Zhang Xueliang very much, and he can insist on it when it is critical, to demolish the Japanese factories in Fengtian and seize the property of Manchurian Iron Co., Ltd., ordinary officials can't do it, after all, they are afraid of causing trouble, but Ma Zhuang will not have this kind of burden. At present, in order not to affect the war in the east, Ma Zhuang can only be given three battalions, and as for the back, more troops will be transferred.
From now on, the batch of equipment in Anshan will be transported westward, Jiang Li suddenly remembered one thing, he had to find a few geologists to survey in Shaanxi and Inner Mongolia, and find out the mines in that area in order to develop accordingly.
"Brigade." Ma Zhuang took advantage of Huang Guodong's efforts to go to the toilet and whispered in Jiang Li's ear, "I captured a Japanese, before this guy was lying in the Japanese army and pretending to be dead, when I wanted to kill him, the Japanese revealed a secret, and the brigade seat may be interested." ”
"What's the secret?" Jiang Li asked.
"Regarding the matter of the old Maozi Kolchak's gold, the Japanese said that the gold was privately divided by a group of Japanese officers, and he has been paying attention to this matter all these years, a batch of gold was brought back, and a batch of gold was left in Heilongjiang in the black and black of several officers, and I heard the Japanese say that there were more than 100 tons." Ma Zhuang whispered.
"Yes, Haosheng takes care of that Japanese, eats and drinks well, don't let him run away." Jiang Li's eyelids blinked, although with Zhang Xueliang's gold, as well as the Northeast Bank, Bank of China branch of these funds, there is no shortage of money for a while, and after the first pot of gold, Jiang Li can invest in other financial routes, but no one will be disgusted with money, at this time an aircraft is only tens of thousands of dollars, a better fighter is only tens of thousands of dollars, more than a hundred tons of gold, you can buy thousands of planes, just imagine what the concept of thousands of planes is, of course, not with planes, pilots, fuel, ammunition, ground crew, the airport and other supporting facilities are a lot of money, but no one will not be tempted by such a large sum of money, but at the moment, the situation on the side of Fengtian is still important, and this gossip will be put aside first.
