Chapter 426: Li Tie Appears

As soon as Commander Jiang's words fell, the entire conference room was silent at first, and then, like a frying pan, the excited voices of more than a dozen bigwigs of the Nationalist Government resounded throughout the conference room.

"What? If the Japanese and the Russians are fighting, won't we in China be able to reap the benefits of the fishermen? He Yingqin was pleasantly surprised.

"How is it possible, do the Japanese have nothing to do when they are full? China hasn't occupied it all, so they went to pick up the tiger whiskers of the Russians, are they old birthday stars hanging themselves for a long time? Kong Xiangxi shouted even more in surprise.

"What's impossible? Since ancient times, the Japanese have been a character who has not yet wanted to invade and occupy all of China, but they also wanted to annex the Russian Far East and Mongolia.

Now that they are fighting the Russians in Manchuria, they must have provoked Mongolia on the border of Manchuria, and Mongolia is what the Russians followed.

So the younger brother was beaten, of course the boss has to come out to find a field, see if I guessed right? Song Ziwen didn't even look at the telegram in Commander Jiang's hand, so he guessed the cause and effect.

As soon as the bigwigs in the conference room heard Song Ziwen's words, they all looked at Commander Jiang, hoping to get an answer from Commander Jiang and see if Song Ziwen guessed correctly.

Commander Jiang first glanced at the eager expressions of everyone present, and then quickly read the telegrams in his hands one by one.

After reading it, Commander Jiang looked at Song Ziwen again, then at the bigwigs in the conference room, and sighed: "This telegram was sent by Li Tie, he said that Japan has always had a plan to enter the Russian Far East in the north, but because the war in China is tight, they have not implemented this plan.

Just half a month ago, Li Tie sent a team of bandits pretending to be Mongolian cavalry to take out two puppet Manchukuo outposts and kill dozens of puppet soldiers in the outposts. And when leaving, he deliberately left a testimony of the Mongol cavalry committing the crime.

Originally, the Mongolian cavalry's sneak attack on the outpost gave the puppet Manchukuo a headache. A week later, he sent a battalion of bandits disguised as a squadron of Japanese soldiers to ambush a small group of Mongol cavalry in the Nomenkhan area of Mongolia west of Manchuria.

Since this group of fake Japanese soldiers did not completely annihilate the Mongolian cavalry of this squad, this further confirmed that the Japanese deliberately provoked the incident.

So the Mongolian cavalry on both sides, the puppet army of Manchukuo, began to fight, and even the Russian army and the real Japanese soldiers were involved.

In the past week, there have been more than a dozen exchanges of fire between Mongolian cavalry and puppet Manchukuo soldiers on the Sino-Mongolian border. Hundreds of people have been killed and wounded on both sides.

Just this morning, the Russian 36th Infantry Division, as the backer of Mongolia, had arrived in the Nomenkhand area, and a vanguard of 3,000 men had an exchange of fire with the vanguard of the 64th Wing of the Japanese army, which had come to reinforce the puppet state of Manchukuo, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.

Now both countries have begun to actively gather troops in the Nomenhan area, and it is believed that soon there will be a four-nation war between Manchuria, Mongolia, Russia and Japan in the Nomenhan area.

Li Tie said that he would lead 100,000 bandit troops in Manchuria to support the Russians in the battle against the Japanese army in the Nomenhan area, and to contain as many Japanese troops as possible.

And the Japanese army will definitely not have any more major military operations in the country until the victory or defeat is separated from the Russians, so he suggested that we immediately place fortifications in Changsha, Shaanxi and the front-line area on the border with the Japanese army.

As long as there is a war between Japan and Russia, there will be no results in three or two months, so we have at least three months to strengthen our fortifications in Hunan. Li Tie told us to cherish the hard-won opportunity in front of us and not be careless.

Because once the Russo-Japanese war ended, the Japanese army would definitely attack all the unoccupied areas of China with all its might, and Hunan, as a shortcut to attack the capital of Sichuan and Chongqing, must be the key place to attack. ”

"What does Li Tie want to do, does he want to rebel? There are still 100,000 bandit troops, and he has long suspected that the relationship between a group of bandits in Manchuria and him Li Tie is unclear, but now it is good that he directly admitted that those bandits were raised by him.

I heard that Ma Zhanshan's so-called Anti-Japanese Alliance was also supported by Li Tie, plus Li Tie still has a lot of troops in Chongqing, he Li Tie is now the number one warlord in China, what is his intention in raising private soldiers like this? Kong Xiangxi shouted loudly.

"Li Tie is not the master of self-respect, he just wants to protect himself, in today's troubled times, which person with a lot of money does not have a private soldier.

Is there any of you here who has not come from supporting the army and respecting yourself? Now, in order to deal with the Japanese, isn't everyone pouring their wealth to reinforce our national government?

I don't believe that Li Tie sent us a telegram just to show off his strength, and this kid didn't mention anything else? Song Ziwen, who thought he knew Li Tie very well, spoke out to excuse Li Tie.

Seeing that Song Ziwen and Kong Xiangxi were pinching again, Commander Jiang was extremely impatient on the one hand, and on the other hand, he had to continue to persuade:

"Don't misunderstand Li Tie, he is also a good intention, in order to support our upcoming battle of Hunan, Li Tie promised to donate 100 fighters to our national government again.

As well as 500 anti-aircraft machine guns of various types and 200 anti-aircraft guns. The guns were in warehouses in the Chongqing Industrial City, and the planes would fly directly from Hainan by the Hainan Air Force in a few days. ”

"Who does Li Tie think he is? Do you think that donating us a few broken guns and a few broken planes will be able to point fingers at our national government? There is an arsenal in Chongqing Industrial City, do you think we don't know? I'm thinking of finding a reason to confiscate Li Tie's Chongqing Industrial City.

At that time, how many guns and artillery in Chongqing Industrial City will belong to our national army. Kong Xiangxi remembered that Li Tie had not been in Chongqing's industrial city for a day or two, but he was still suffering from Liu Wenhui in Chongqing. And Liu Wenhui and Li Tie have an offensive and defensive alliance, so if you want to move Chongqing Industrial City, you must first pass Liu Wenhui's pass.

What's more critical is that after Liu Xiang's death, he left 100,000 Sichuan army elites stationed outside Chongqing and Chengdu respectively, and the most important reason why Kong Xiangxi couldn't do it was that Chongqing Industrial City not only won the support of the people in Chongqing, but also their Huaxing Escort Force also had nearly 20,000 troops stationed around Chongqing Industrial City.

The combat effectiveness of the Huaxing Guards is world-famous, and the weapons and equipment of the Huaxing Guards are no worse than the German armorers of their National Army, so Kong Xiangxi's ambition to annex Huaxing Industrial City has no way to be realized.

Now seeing that Li Tie was ashamed to speak in the telegram and pointed fingers at the future actions of the Nationalist Government, Kong Xiangxi immediately gave Li Tie eye medicine in front of Commander Jiang.

He hoped that Commander Jiang, who had always been cautious, would be angry and treat Li Tie's sin according to his own wishes. It would be better to give an order to suppress the Huaxing Guards and confiscate the Huaxing Industrial City.

It's a pity that today's Commander Jiang didn't know which tendon was wrong, and let Kong Xiangxi say countless bad things about Li Tie in the audience, but Commander Jiang was unmoved.

Just when the senior officials of the Nationalist Government in Chongqing were struggling with how to treat Li Tie, thousands of miles away at the junction of China, Mongolia and Russia, on a grassland outside Manchuria.

More than 3,000 people in the vanguard of the Russian 36th Division were fighting to the death with soldiers of a brigade of the 64th Wing of the Japanese Army. The two sides fired at each other on the flat grassland, with the help of various types of temporarily dug shallow pits.

The weapons and equipment of the Russian 36th Infantry Division are very advanced, and the division not only has more than 1,000 light and heavy machine guns of various types, but also has more than 100 infantry guns and mortars of various types.

It can be said that their firepower intensity is far greater than that of the soldiers of a brigade of the Japanese army opposite, but although the 64th Wing is only a second-rate unit of the Japanese army, the fighting will and fighting quality of the Japanese soldiers are far greater than that of the Russian soldiers.

When the vanguard of the 36th Division fought with the Japanese troops of this brigade for a day and still did not defeat the Japanese army, when the sky was just dark, a large group of Japanese soldiers took advantage of the dark night to touch the position of the vanguard of the Russian 36th Division.

As a result, after a short hand-to-hand engagement, the vanguard of the 36th Division was crippled, and more than 3,000 Russian soldiers collapsed after only a few hundred were killed.

Thousands of Russian soldiers threw away all their baggage and fled in the direction of Nomenhan, while the soldiers of the 1st Brigade of the 64th Wing followed closely behind the Russian soldiers.

The pursuit lasted all night, and when it was just dawn, the soldiers of the 36th Division found that the Japanese soldiers who had been chasing them all night were suddenly blocked by a group of cavalry who had been killing them from the shadows.

There were more than 1,000 cavalrymen in this group, and each cavalryman carried two spears at his waist, a saber in front of him, a big white bandit embroidered on his clothes, and a long horse pistol in his hand.

Thousands of cavalry screamed and slashed at the Japanese army, and soon this large group of Japanese pursuers was defeated and had to retreat.

Seeing the retreat of the Japanese army, these cavalry did not pursue, they only protected the Russian soldiers who had been killed all the way back to Nomenhan.

At Nomenhan, General Popov, commander of the 36th Division of the Russian Army Group North, was standing at the gate outside the city with several Chinese waiting for the defeated Russian soldiers.

Seeing that the cavalry welcomed back the vanguard, Popov said to a burly Chinese beside him: "Thank you so much, Mr. Xiangzuo, without your bandit army, my vanguard will be completely wiped out."

I didn't expect the Japanese attack to be so powerful, it seems that I have to report to Moscow that the present situation in the Nomenkhand region is serious, and if it is really to Mr. Li Tie that Japan intends to occupy the entire territory of Mongolia in the west and the Far East of our Russia in the north, our great Russia will definitely strike first.

We will not let the Japanese plot succeed, and we must teach these Japanese monkeys a good lesson to let them know that the majesty of our polar bears is inviolable. ”

"General Popov, you have to have confidence in my intelligence, I have many high-ranking agents in my base camp in Japan, and these news have been obtained by my people with great sacrifices.

Therefore, you should report to Comrade Stalin about the situation here at the same time as you want to rent more Russian land.

If you don't want to rent me too much Russian land, Mongolia's can too, we Chinese don't like anything else but like farming, how about it?

Rest assured! The rent is negotiable, and it must be more profitable than if you were to manage the land yourself. It was Li Tie, who had disappeared from China for more than a month, who said this.
