Chapter 283: Declaring war on Japan
A few days later, under the careful planning of Li Ping, on a calm morning, when the factory had just started and the students had just started classes, the Ministry of the Interior of the Chinese Empire suddenly held a press conference, and Li Ping, the premier of the Ministry of the Interior, personally appeared, at which not only the foreign [***] Li Ping expressed his approval, but also expressed the emperor's own congratulations to Outer Mongolia.
For a time, the whole country can be described as a bloody storm, with students striking classes and workers on strike. They took to the streets in an organized manner to protest against the incompetence of the political axe and the reading power of Outer Mongolia.
In this fast-developing country, there are too many surprises for Wang Lin. Maybe it's because the reign is not long, or maybe the people's minds have really opened up gradually. The students, who had just been studying for a few days, also pretended to be great intellectuals, and went on strike at every turn, marched and demonstrated, protested against the political axe, and so on.
If these things were to be left to future generations, who would dare to do them? Unless you want to get in the bureau and have a cup of hot tea, talk to people about life, talk about ideals.
China's political calmness has made it difficult for many countries to accept this fact for a while. Wang Lin, who has always regarded the land as his life, even did not hesitate to go to war with Tsarist Russia in the world, and dealt with the invading Russian army with his cruel methods. But now he suddenly recognized the reading power of Outer Mongolia, which not only made the princes of Outer Mongolia who were worried about whether they would be retaliated against, but also made the powers of various countries scratch their heads.
I don't know if the students' demonstrations really played a role, or if it was originally a playful mentality. On the morning of the second day when the Ministry of the Interior announced the recognition of the Outer [***] standing. Tang San, Minister of Defense of the Chinese Empire, personally held a grand press conference, at which Tang San also clearly informed reporters from various countries of the emperor's attitude towards this matter.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs has reasons for doing this, and the military will not suspect the Ministry of Internal Affairs of any traitorous behavior, because politics is an inexplicable thing in the first place. Regarding the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Tang San didn't say much. Before the final end, Tang San delivered the most important speech of the day. Declare war on Mongolia.
As if they had received some earth-shattering news, reporters from all over the world quickly transmitted the news back to China as soon as possible, for fear of a minute's delay. And the spies lurking in the Chinese Empire in various countries gradually began to get busy, especially the spies stationed in the north. They were no longer searching around all the time to see which unit would be in charge of fighting against Mongolia.
The Chinese Imperial Defense Force, which has just completed its expansion, is at a time when its troops are strong and strong, and no one wants to see such a situation. What if you don't want to see it? Everything that should be done has been done, everything that should be said has been said, and all that is bright and dark has come. What an international blockade, economic sanctions. But what's the use of that?
Since Wang Lin came to power, the Chinese Empire has always implemented a policy of domestic demand, and the business required for foreign trade import and export is very small, if not nil. Often, what is produced in one province will be sent to another province for sale at the first time, and Rao is often out of stock.
Even domestic demand is out of stock, who would be stupid to spend a huge amount of money on foreign trade? Self-sufficiency, just this trick made the world powers worry about their heads. You can block people's import and export trade with the outside world, you can control their foreign economic sources, but can you block people's domestic roads and prohibit the circulation of goods? It's simply not possible.
Therefore, as soon as the news of the expansion of the Chinese Empire broke, the countries of the world were angry, but they could only be angry, and nothing they did was enough to stop any of the policy decisions of the Chinese Empire. And the expansion of the army can only be completed while the great powers are lining up to watch. I can't beat others, not to mention that I still have other people's tanks in mind, so what if I go to fight by myself and give the enemy a chance to exploit loopholes?
When the news of the war came from the Chinese Empire, the hearts of the whole world were instantly raised to the throat, and the Chinese Empire, which could not be reassuring for a while, had just finished the Sino-Russian War and started a war with Mongolia. If a day ago, you can still think of them as belonging to the civil war, the internal affairs of the country. But now the situation is different, yesterday the political axe just recognized the legal status of Outer Mongolia, but today the Ministry of Defense declared war on him.
What is it? Naked aggression. Once the status of the political axe is confirmed, then waging a war is not as simple as an internal affair, and once the war is defeated, it will bear the charge of starting a war. However, no one would have thought that the Chinese Empire would be defeated.
In Gansu, Ningxia, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Hebei, Northeast China, and other places on the border with Mongolia, hundreds of thousands of troops were assembled at the border and stood by, as if they had received orders a long time ago, and within one day of the Ministry of National Defense's declaration of war, more than 200,000 troops gathered on the border line and waited. During this period, the northeastern region had the fastest troop build-up.
However, this seems to be expected, the northeast region was originally the largest garrison troops, just after the Sino-Russian war, many troops have not had time to withdraw, so many units in various places after receiving reorganization, still perform their respective duties.
After another long wait, when about 300,000 troops were hoarded in the border area, the Wehrmacht troops crossed the so-called border line on the morning of the third day and entered the Mongolian region in one fell swoop. At this time, Mongolia was not divided into outer Mongolia and inner Mongolia, and there was only one unified title, Mongolia.
Wang Lin didn't want to care about anything, let alone make any more Inner Mongolia and Outer Mongolia, those are all Chinese land, no one can split her, no one can split her like this.
The Mongolian army is advancing at the fastest speed, and the semi-mechanized Wehrmacht has entered the grassland, although the speed of march on the grassland cannot reach the fastest, but in this empty steppe, the speed is much faster than in the mountains and rivers. Coupled with the military compass navigation, the chances of getting lost are even more pitiful.
In just one day, the vanguard engaged in skirmishes with the Mongol army. The new army meets the Mongolian cavalry, and in the face of machine guns and cannons, the war horse steel knife seems to have long been a thing of the past. The horses galloped, the earth rumbled, and although the scene was extremely shocking, it still could not stop the flight of bullets.
When bullets entered the enemy's body one after another, the Iron Cavalry, who had galloped across Eurasia hundreds of years ago, realized that they had fallen behind. They are no match for them at all, and there is nothing more terrible than this to be an opponent of such a terrible person.
The battle with Mongolia seemed to be a bit thunderous and rainy, and it took less than seven days for the vanguard of the Mongolian army to arrive in the Sino-Russian border area. The Russian soldiers on the opposite side stared nervously at the Chinese Defense Forces on the opposite side, and at the same time silently prayed in their hearts, hoping that they would not come, never come.
Seven days seems to be a short time, but in Wang Lin's opinion, he doesn't think so, this is an extremely long wait, and in this waiting, Wang Lin even looks a little impatient. No one can understand Wang Lin's current mood, as a person who has come over, how can others understand his mood at the moment?
But in any case, in a week, a small war of annihilation was resolved, which was indeed a happy event for Wang Lin. There is nothing more joyful than this incident, thinking that back then, didn't Xiao Yue also boast that Haikou would destroy the whole of China in three months? Now Wang Lin doesn't even need to boast about Haikou, he directly sent troops, and it only took a week to get these things done, which is indeed quite mysterious.
When the whole world learned of this news, they all grew up in surprise, some of them were surprised by the combat effectiveness of the Chinese Imperial Defense Force, and some of them felt a little uncomfortable because of the sudden arrogance of the Chinese Empire. But whatever their reasons are, there will always be some of the same reasons. It's just that they don't believe it, they definitely don't believe that this country that seems to be extremely backward and has just formed will achieve such a record.
This is no less than the surprise of a nuclear bomb exploding and sending a person into space for the first time!
The British were shocked, the French were in a daze, and they knew the majesty of the Mongolian iron horsemen, and they experienced it hundreds of years ago. Although the people who experienced it were not themselves, the history of their country clearly records these events. And there are still some remarks circulating among the people to a greater or lesser extent.
There is no wind and no waves, and they definitely have reason to believe that the combat effectiveness of the Mongolian iron cavalry is definitely not low. But the French ignore the most important fact, which is that this is not hundreds of years ago, nor is it the time of Genghis Khan. After going through several changes in the times, those who keep up with the trend have already become world powers, and those who don't keep up with the team can only follow behind the ass and have nothing to do with two feet.
At this time, the Mongolian iron cavalry had already disappeared with the original Genghis Khan, and the prestige of that year had already dissipated for hundreds of years. But such a fact is deeply imprinted in the hearts of Westerners. Strands of the Yellow Peril theory are emerging one after another. It's just that in this era, in front of Wang Lin, what kind of yellow peril theory will not work at all.
Wang Lin is not a pedantic person, nor is he a timid person, as long as he believes it, then he must do it, no matter what the result will be, he must continue to do it. Just like the sweep in China a year ago, countless officials were either shot or imprisoned for life, and even their relatives were also affected.
If you want to do it, you can do it ruthlessly, and Wang Lin even coldly burst out a sentence, people are not ruthless and can't stand on their feet. However, facts have proved that Wang Lin's practice has indeed brought a sense of patriotism among many young people in China. This is a far cry from the previously anticipated growing shortage of staff in the civil service.
Whenever it is time to recruit civil servants, there will always be a crowd of people at every recruitment point like a long queue, crowded with people, and even if you move your body, you are afraid that you will step on others. However, most of the people who come here are people who have studied for two years, know some words, and have no iron ties at home. There are also many children from rural families who come here with a tentative heart to try to sign up and take a look.
The Americans are pondering that they need to analyze the decisions and practices of the Chinese to see if there is anything to learn from them and apply them to the Mexican battlefield, which has a huge conflict with the United States. But whenever Mexico is mentioned, Americans have a headache, and Mexicans seem to be taking Viagra, (there is no Viagra in this era!). It seems to have infinite power, and every time you just get a group of people, the next group will come out right after you, and you won't have any room to breathe.
And the weapons in their hands make the Americans struggle even more, and they can't figure out where they come from, which is so sad, it's really sad. I really don't know, where did their endless supply of weapons come from?
As for himself, in addition to anger, he has a sad face. Originally, the Russians were most enthusiastic about it, but the Russians seemed to have lost all their courage after the Sino-Russian War. There is no clear confrontation with the Chinese. The hundreds of thousands of troops originally mobilized in the Far East, except for a small part of the troops, were withdrawn, and the other troops retreated dozens of miles and were stationed here.
In desperation, the ambitious Yu himself had no choice but to put forward various attractive conditions with great effort, and sent capable personnel to help the Mongolian princes and nobles to improve their reading skills. But I didn't expect things to go so smoothly, if it has been going so smoothly, it's okay, it's better to make people have a false alarm, it's better than being frightened all the time, right?
In a week's time, all his conspiracies were completely aborted, and it was not only difficult for him to accept this reality, but even the Mongolian princes and nobles were also difficult to accept this reality. They couldn't figure out how the plan that had already succeeded, how could it just dissipate?
The fantasy is beautiful, but the truth is cruel. The day after the end of the war in Mongolia, Wuhan, the scene of the press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This is the first time since the founding of the People's Republic of China that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has come forward to announce something big. Before declaring war on Mongolia, it was because they didn't regard Mongolia as an outsider at all, their own affairs, how could they still need the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to come forward?
As for the rest, either Wang Lin personally spoke, or the Ministry of the Interior came out, in this era when the world is full of siege, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs seems to be living a little miserable.
Tang Yun was dressed in Hanfu, his hair was straight and shiny, and the shoes on his feet were also spotlessly polished. Entering the press conference with a rigorous face, looking at the reporters who were talking to each other, he shook his head secretly in his heart, I'm afraid that after today, Tang Yun will often deal with these reporters, right?
But to be honest, dealing with journalists is always a headache, because they are constantly watching your movements, your every word and action. The slightest mistake will be exaggerated, if it is not a matter of importance, it is fine, but if it is an urgent matter, it is impossible to be messed up by the reporters.
"Fellow journalists, it is a pleasure to be here with you, and please allow me to introduce myself. My surname is Tang, and my single name is a cloud character. He served in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Imperial Republic of China as a minister. Tang Yun stood at the front of the venue, holding a microphone with one hand, and said in a very loud voice.
'Boom! At one moment, the order of the reporters below suddenly became a little riotous, Foreign Minister. Could it be that this young man is the legendary foreign minister? How could he be so young? Looks younger than the Minister of Defense.
The outside world only knows that Foreign Minister Tang Yun and Defense Minister Tang San are people from the same village, and both of them are also Wang Lin's protégés. Of course, in addition to envy, many people also have a trace of jealousy in their hearts. Why wasn't Wang Lin in their village in the first place? If that's the case, then it's not impossible that they might be standing there now.
Creation makes people, it's really creation that makes people. Why do some people only need to work a little hard to stand in a position that others can't achieve after a lifetime of hard work? Tang Yun in front of him was like this, even Tang San was the same. Not to mention the emperor, but the emperor seems to have been approved by them, otherwise, how could he perfectly solve so many things that these battle-hardened reporters also think are difficult problems?
"Fellow journalists, today, we are shouting you here, mainly because there are two things to announce, after all, there are some things that the people still have the right to know." Tang Yun ignored the shock below, for him, he had long been accustomed to seeing this kind of scene, and for his own life experience, Tang Yun also felt a little lucky, but a person's life always needs some luck, doesn't it?
Stopping the reporters below from continuing to scratch, Tang Yun cleared his throat and continued to mutter about the topic just now:
"First of all, I would like to give a briefing on the details of the attack on Mongolia. Presumably, all the reporters and hundreds of millions of citizens want to know some of the details of this, right? Or you can't believe that we can solve this problem completely in seven days. ”
"But these things are the military's business, and only the military can explain it clearly. Here I need to explain a few other things. In this war, while attacking, the military discovered many appalling things. One by one, the treaties that were deeply hidden underground have gradually reappeared. As far as this [***] establishment is concerned, the military also found some of the cats in it, and found detailed evidence. As he spoke, Tang Yun took out a document wrapped in plastic from the folder, which was written in the words "曰" and "Mongolian", "曰", "[***] and other words.
"This treaty confirmed to us the whole story of the [***] establishment, and the captured Mongol royal family also confessed everything to us. Therefore, now I can tell you responsibly that Mongolia's reading power was planned by Yuben. ”
Without waiting for the reporters to react, Tang Yun continued to open his mouth as if he was grabbing it quickly and continued: "It is precisely because of this that the emperor was even more angry and broke a lot of things, saying that you can't use a gentleman's method to treat hooligans. This is also the second thing I want to announce, starting from the beginning of the war, the Chinese Empire will enter a period of war against the Empire, and within a week will expel all the people, embassies, etc. in the territory. For now, we have recalled all of the remaining Imperial nationals, as well as diplomatic missions. ”
