Chapter 550: The War of Resistance Zhang Xueliang's Losses (1)
Jia Jingde's words couldn't help but surprise Song Zhewu's heart, and then he smiled bitterly in his heart, Song Zhewu knew that he had said too much. He also admired Jia Jingde's extraordinary delicacy and sensitivity, and just missed a sentence that reminded him of so many things.
Since the crossing, Song Zhewu's biggest headache is to make up this nonsense after goofing. But there is no way, he still has to make up this nonsense, and he has to make it up perfectly.
"In the sixteenth year of the Republic of China, I heard some rumors about "Tanaka Song" in Tianjin, because I had more contact with the Japanese in Tianjin, and I not only knew the Japanese national character very well, but also had a deep understanding, so I thought that this "Tanaka Song" was true at that time. Especially after the Jinan tragedy, I am even more convinced of this. ”
"However, there are constant wars and turmoil in the country, and there are very few people who have a clear understanding of Japan's intention to invade our country, especially the politicians who hold power, and it is impossible to form a consensus in China to actively prepare for resistance against Japan. So, I chose to do it myself. But to resist Japan, it is impossible to do without a reliable rear, and the most suitable place for this rear is Shanxi. ”
"As for the time of Japan's large-scale invasion of China, my analysis at the time was that it would be within ten years, and I also mentioned this to the chairman of the National People's Congress when I was in Wuhan, which is why I suggested that Zhang Xueliang handle the Middle East Road in the same way at that time."
"As for asking Zhang Xueliang to buy rails on credit from the Japanese, I really didn't have too much thought at the time, and you also know that at that time, we were going to build the Taiku Railway, not only did we lack funds, but we also had to buy so many rails at once, and pay the money at once, which was not economically cost-effective......"
Song Zhewu explained to Jia Jingde with great difficulty, and at the same time thought quickly in his heart. He was wondering if he should admit that he was sorry for Nine. There is a premonition of the 18th incident, if you say it, it is a little incredible, but you can not say it, and I am afraid that the future will not be able to explain it clearly. After thinking nervously, Song Zhewu decided to admit the incident.
"However, I am not interested in nine. The 18th incident did have a premonition. My basis is the Manhoshan Incident and the Nakamura Shotaro Incident, which have occurred since the beginning of this year, both of which show that the Kwantung Army is not only actively preparing for war, but is also deliberately creating a pretext for war. In addition, some of the intelligence we have collected on the Kwantung Army indicates that the Kwantung Army will attack in the northeast around September. I have already informed the Chairman and Zhang Xueliang of the relevant judgment. ”
After receiving Song Zhewu's affirmative reply, Jia Jingde's face flushed, closed his eyes, and leaned his head back on the sofa for a long time without saying a word.
After a while, Jia Jingde sat up straight, looked at Song Zhewu and said solemnly: "I think I, Jia Jingde, has always been very self-assured, thinking that he has a hand in financial management, and he is very proficient in government affairs. However, Jia today knows that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world, compared with Wenge, Jia is really a frog sitting in the well. Wen Ge is eloquent and strategic, and I Jia Yuru admires it very much. I am also a person who has been up and down for half a life, and I have been blind for more than 30 years, and today I finally follow the right person. ”
Jia Jingde's words were undoubtedly revealing his heart to Song Zhewu, which made Song Zhewu completely excited.
"With Wenge in Shanxi, I, Jia Yuru, am very fortunate to be from Shanxi, and I am very fortunate to thank you for being in Shanxi, and the Shanxi fathers can avoid this war."
Jia Jingde, who was excited, didn't wait for Song Zhewu to speak, and immediately couldn't wait to ask another question.
"Wen Ge, you asked Han Guangdi to form the Northeast Anti-Japanese Corps in North Manchuria, didn't you want to carry out a large-scale war of resistance in the Northeast?"
Song Zhewu knew that he had completely regained Jia Jingde's heart, and he could use Jia Jingde unreservedly from now on. …,
Song Zhewu couldn't hide his happy smile, shook his head and said, "No." ”
Song Zhewu knew that Jia Jingde was proficient in government affairs and economics, and he was really the best choice of talent, but he was far behind in military affairs, and he was even almost a layman, so he still didn't know much about his thoughts on the War of Resistance. However, for Jia Jingde, who he has to rely on with all his strength in government affairs, he still needs Jia Jingde to truly understand his intentions, so that Jia Jingde can better make the various actions of the Northern Construction and Development Committee fit in with his strategy.
Song Zhewu patiently explained: "That's the case, if there is no Soviet invasion, and Zhang Xueliang is willing to resist the Soviet invasion, then I can give the Japanese army a fight." It's just a shame ......"
Speaking of this, Song Zhewu said with some regret: "This is also to blame me, in order to have Northern Mongolia to occupy a favorable terrain in the war against Japan during the War of Resistance in the Northeast, I first recovered Northern Mongolia." However, I didn't expect ......"
Fortunately, Song Zhewu realized that he was going to say something again, so he stopped talking in time, otherwise he might have to explain again.
"For the Soviet Union, the strategic position of North Mongolia is very important, whether North Mongolia is in the hands of the Soviet Union is related to whether the Soviet Union can keep Siberia, and the Soviets will never let go."
Song Zhewu said with a look of remorse: "Now the main force of our Fourth Route Army is completely stuck in Northern Mongolia, don't say that we are unable to fight against the two major powers of Japan and the Soviet Union at the same time, even if we only deal with the Soviet army, it is also like walking on thin ice, and it is extremely dangerous." ”
Jia Jingde obviously understood what Song Zhewu meant, nodded and asked: "In other words, the main force of the Fourth Route Army will not be able to go south to the northeast for a long time, and Han Guangdi's Northeast Anti-Japanese Corps is only a partial division, and its political significance is greater than its military significance." ”
Song Zhewu was very satisfied that Jia Jingde understood what he meant so quickly. The heart said, "After all, he is a smart man."
"Yes, Han Guangdi's Northeast Anti-Japanese Corps is indeed a partial division, but this partial division is of great significance. Its existence can not only attract people of insight from the three northeastern provinces to our Fourth Route Army and increase our strength, but also make sufficient preparations for the future war of resistance against Japan and the recovery of the northeast. In addition, its existence can also make it impossible for the Japanese army to quickly stabilize the situation in the three northeastern provinces, and if it develops well, it may even delay the pace of the Japanese army's full-scale invasion of China. ”
Jia Jingde nodded, thought about it and asked with some worry: "Wen Ge, this time in the Northern Mongolian War of Resistance, our Fourth Route Army almost did its best, but after all, we are resisting an old power, are we sure of winning?" ”。
Seeing Song Zhewu's solemn expression, Jia Jingde said tentatively: "Wen Ge, it is already difficult for you to resist the Soviet Union independently, if you can't do anything, don't force it first, let's actively develop and expand ourselves first, and then make plans." In my opinion, is the matter of immigration to North Mongolia postponed for a while?"
Song Zhewu knew Jia Jingde's worries, and in order to let Jia Jingde feel at ease to do a good job in the resettlement of the victims, he had to patiently explain: "It is true that the Soviet Union is an old power, but it is not as good as it used to be, and without ten or eight years of stable development, its strength will not return to its original state." ”
"First of all, after October**, after it became the first socialist country in the world, the Western powers hated it very much, and now they sell it machinery and equipment, and that is because the West is suffering from an economic crisis, and the West is trying to save its own economy. The Soviets were well aware of this, and they had to be wary of the Western powers at all times. Therefore, they will have a certain limit on the strength of troops sent to Northern Mongolia. ”
"Secondly, after the Soviet Union, many experienced officers were purged or fled, and the combat effectiveness of the Soviet army declined."
"Again, the Soviet army, like the armies of the European powers, was only accustomed to capturing cities and ultimately deciding the outcome of the war, and was very unaccustomed to fighting in the mountains. The northern and western parts of Northern Mongolia are mountainous and the terrain is complex, and we are sure to defeat them in the mountains. To tell the truth, I am only 50 percent sure about holding Kulen, but I am 100 percent sure about holding the mountainous area of southwestern Mongolia. ”…,
"The resettlement of a large number of victims in northern Mongolia is extremely important for our war of resistance in northern Mongolia, and this matter must not be stopped. Of course, the early resettlement of the victims should be mainly concentrated in the mountainous areas of southwestern northern Mongolia. ”
Jia Jingde is now extremely convinced of Song Zhewu, since Song Zhewu said that he can hold the southwest mountainous area, he will definitely be able to hold it, nodded and said: "Okay, since Wen Ge said so, I will rest assured, as soon as I return to Taiyuan, I will hurry up and do the matter of resettlement of disaster victims to Beimeng." ”
When it comes to rehousing the victims, Jia Jingde immediately thinks about money.
Jia Jingde sighed: "It's a pity that Zhang Xueliang was afraid of the Japanese army and gave up the Northeast to the Japanese. I have been to the Northeast Arsenal, and although the military products there are not as complete as those in Taiyuan, its machinery and equipment are all imported from the best, and the quality of the weapons produced is better than that produced in Taiyuan before. There are also hundreds of planes of the Northeast Army, which even the Central Army does not have. Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Xueliang and his son spent a lot of money for these, and these things are now in the hands of the Japanese, but they are really cheap for the Japanese. ”
Song Zhewu also sighed and said: "Yes, just for the construction of the Northeast Arsenal and the Northeast Mortar Factory, Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Xueliang father and son spent more than 300 million yuan, and if you count the cost of purchasing aircraft, training personnel, and auxiliary equipment for the formation of the Northeast Army Air Force, the total value will not be less than 400 million." ”
"These are still decimals."
Song Zhewu continued to say regretfully: "The shares of the Northeast authorities in the mines and railways in the three northeastern provinces will be even larger, and the value of only one Eastern Railway will not be less than 200 million. If we include the public property of local governments and the real estate of officials, the total value is probably more than 3 billion yuan......"
Song Zhewu had to count the losses in the Northeast again, and when he saw Liang Bi walking in with a few telegrams, he stopped talking and reached out to take the telegram ...... brought by Liang Bi.
