"Will the Marines be able to take on the task?"

"This question needs to be answered by the General Staff."

"How long will it take for the Navy Staff to complete the projections?"

"It will take at least a day or so."

"Well, the data from the intelligence center is already out, let the Navy Staff immediately process the data and assess the situation."

"Yes!"

In the Baath Party, military operations were based on mathematical calculations. It is different from the imaginary situation where a group of staff officers are busy and extremely qualified, holding a baton and making comparisons on the map and sand table to carry out wargame deduction. Most of the time, the focus of the work of the General Staff is on statistics.

Your own strength, the enemy's strength. The speed of your own movement, the speed of movement of the place. Your own supply, the enemy's supply......

A large amount of data was handed over to the staff by the intelligence services. The staff officers in the staff department will calculate these data according to various data through many fixed formulas. It is not until these calculations are completed that the wargame will be performed according to the different scenarios.

Therefore, in the General Staff of the Renaissance Army and the staff headquarters of the troops below at all levels, there are not a few handsome men with shiny leather boots and stiff military uniforms, but because of the heavy work tasks and the serious shortage of personnel with corresponding quality and experience, there are everywhere the kind of otaku characters who wear pleated military uniforms, unkempt hair leaking out of military hats, and because they often stay up all night, they have eye droppings on the corners of their eyes.

According to the results of the war games, the staff will come up with several different plans. As for which scheme to use to accomplish the task, that is the choice of the military commanders.

In fact, there have been a lot of changes in history since Wang Shuhui entered the time and space at the end of the Ming Dynasty through the time and space gate. While many things are still happening in the course of history, there are also many things that have gone in completely different directions.

For example, Zu Dashou, who chose to surrender in history, did not surrender to Dolgon, who was storming Dalinghe Fort, but fled back to Jinzhou after leading the army to break through the siege, and then approached the Fuxing Trading Company stationed in Jinzhou and offered to surrender the Fuxing Trading Company.

For another example, Dolgon, who had lost the rear and had completely broken with Daishan, did not pursue Zu Dashou, who was at a disadvantage and fled. Instead, after completely destroying the defense system of Dalinghe Fort and plundering the soldiers who were thrown at the local area by Zu Dashou, he led the troops and the rear troops to make peace, and hurriedly retreated in the direction of the Khalkha Department on the grassland.

For example, after many contacts with the Baxing Army, through the Baxing Army's complete rejection of the trade demands of the Dashun regime, through the Baxing Army's ignorance of any proposals of the Dashun regime, and other abnormal situations, Gao Yingxiang, who recognized the true attitude of the Baxing Party towards himself, actually resolutely pulled down his face, did not care about his identity as the emperor, left the army of more than 100,000 or 200,000, and led three or four thousand elite cavalry to suddenly escape from Beijing, through the central part of Henan that was in a power vacuum. fled into the northern part of Shaanxi, which had not yet been taken over by the Baath Party's plan to move north.

These changes, which are almost completely untraceable, have caused a lot of trouble for the Baath Party. By now, for the Baath Party, the core content of the plan is no longer a military issue, but a political issue.

What should be done with the Zu Dashou Liaodong warlord group who want to surrender to the Baath Party? How should the true power of the Houjin women, who suddenly split and fled with Dolgon into the Mongolian steppe, and half of the children suddenly retreated north under the leadership of Dai Shan, be resolved? How should Beijing City, which has more than 100,000 and nearly 200,000 abandoned Shun troops, be taken over when the food is exhausted, the dragons are leaderless? These issues were completely uncovered in the original plan of the Ba'ath Party to go north.

Faced with all sorts of complicated situations, which can be said to be completely subversive, the Central Committee of the Baath Party must make new decisions in light of the situation.

However, such a complicated situation, not to mention that these senior cadres of the Central Committee of the Baath Party are not clear about the situation, even Wang Shuhui is a little confused in his heart. After all, the actual situation is a little too different from the planned situation.

Although wireless telegraphy is already a very advanced "advanced" communication tool that can enable the Baath Party to have the most direct understanding of the situation at the front, for the members of the Ba'ath Party Central Committee in charge of decision-making work, they still have no confidence in their hearts when they are not on the front line.

Zu Dashou is going to surrender, is his statement true or false? What is the attitude of the upper echelons of the entire Liaodong warlord group towards this matter? What caused the sudden split and flight of the Houjin Nuzhen? How to deal with the aftermath of this matter? Is it a priority to launch a military operation against Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and other high-level Dashun leaders who fled into the northern region of Heshaan? Or is it a priority to take over the city of Beijing? The Central Committee of the Baath Party must sort out these problems, make them clear, and come up with corresponding solutions.

The Baath Party ********** basically a situation in which the party, the government, and the military are divided into three parts.

Of course, the Central Committee members of the Central Committee of the Military Commission believed that military action should be given priority, and immediately launched a pursuit against Hou Jin Nuzhen, and immediately launched an annihilation against Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, and others. Immediately carry out a thorough purge and transformation of the Liaodong warlord clique entrenched in the western Liaoning corridor.

The idea of the members of the Central Committee of the Government Council is to steadily take over the vast territory and large population of the Central Plains, and not to deal with the situation in the north too hastily, and there is no need to rush to launch an unplanned military operation with huge costs, so that the matter can be delayed for a while.

The party committee's thinking is even more negative than that of the government affairs council. In Meng Li's words, whether it is a large number of prisoners obtained through military operations or a large number of people who are planned to be peacefully accepted by the north, these people need a lot of ideological education and mobilization. The population that has not undergone ideological education and mobilization, and who has not undergone industrial training and transformation, is simply a population of no use to the Baath Party. For the ignorant peasants of the feudal agricultural era, adding one more is adding an extra burden to the Baath Party.

Therefore, the party committee system even feels that the government affairs yuan is a bit too hasty in terms of population reception and land reception, as well as the farm-based construction of the land after the acceptance. Where did the agricultural workers, who have not been adequately trained and reformed, come from the state farms that use industrial means to produce large-scale agriculture?

As far as Wang Shuhui himself is concerned, he has been grinding for more than ten years in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, and of course he is very eager to quickly include North China in his pocket, and then start to carry out comprehensive industrialization construction in North China and Northeast China, which are rich in mineral resources.

But Wang Shuhui himself knows that his idea is not very realistic. You must know that it took more than ten or twenty years to quickly lay the foundation for China's industrialization. This was achieved with the enthusiastic support and support of a large group of geniuses and hundreds of millions of Chinese.

At that time, China had revolutionary ideals and beliefs, as well as superb planners and leaders. A large number of industrialized talents who have been baptized and transformed have been rapidly cultivated. With a fearless spirit of sacrifice, they completed the foundation of China's industrialization. And it must also be admitted that New China has a good teacher named Lao Maozi. Although this good teacher did not teach New China for a long time, the most basic means of formulating a national construction outline were still learned by New China.

The question now for the Baath Party is not whether it can beat others. In front of the APA, all the armed forces that have come into contact with the APA and the leaders of these armed forces have a full understanding of the fighting capacity of the APA. In front of the Renaissance Army, they showed a situation in which they did not dare to fight head-on at all, and when they heard the news, they fled in despair.

However, after taking over the whole of North China, in the face of the vast land and tens of millions of people, it is necessary to organize these people to carry out agricultural and industrial production and establish a suitable social system.

More importantly, from an administrative point of view, the current Baath Party members and cadres are now capable of building and leading grassroots political power at the village, township, and county levels. Excluding the Liaonan and Ludong base areas, which are under full military control, the performance of the Hubei provincial government, the only provincial-level government of the Baath Party, has been really disappointing in recent years.

It is better to say that they are the Hubei provincial government, but rather that they are the communication organs of the central government of the Baath Party in the Hubei region. They have little ability to handle and manage the affairs of Hubei Province on their own, they simply have to ask the central government for everything, and without clear orders and specific guidance from the central government, they can hardly carry out any independent work.

This is why Wang Shuhui decided to abolish the provincial political organization of the Baath Party and instead prepare to adopt a county system of government in northern China. The building of political power at the provincial level can only be carried out gradually according to the needs after the party members and cadres of the Baath Party have accumulated a great deal of experience and lessons in practice.

But even so, the shortage of a large number of local grassroots cadres also gave Wang Shuhui a serious headache.

Wang Shuhui's current attitude toward the Central Committee of the Ba'ath Party is that since there is no possibility of defeat for the Ba'ath Party in terms of absolute strength, then it must let go of its hands and feet and let the Central Committee of the Ba'ath Party operate on its own. In the next year or two, the Central Committee of the Baath Party and the Central Administrative Yuan of the Baath Party will have to assume the leadership of the whole of North China.

So at this stage, which seems to be a bit like a critical juncture, Wang Shuhui became the shopkeeper again. He asked the Baath Party ********** to assume the decision-making responsibility that she should have assumed long ago, and he asked the Central Administrative Council of the Ba'ath Party and the Ba'ath Party Military Commission to fully obey the orders of the Ba'ath Party Central Committee and implement the decisions of the Ba'ath Party Central Committee in accordance with the system.

On the one hand, he paid attention to the petrochemical industry in Hubei that was entering the production stage, and directly participated in the internal combustion engine manufacturing work of the Baath Party. On the other hand, he was a dispatcher and directly led a large team responsible for the industrial planning and basic industrial construction work in the newly received Shaanxi and Henan regions.

After returning to Kaifeng Prefecture, the new seat of the Baath Party Central Committee, Wang Shuhui listened carefully to the report of the Baath Party **********, pointed out several minor flaws in their decision-making, turned around and left Kaifeng to inspect the construction of the Nankai Railway (Nanyang to Kaifeng) and the Nanxi Railway (Nanyang to Xi'an).

For Wang Shuhui, only when the Nankai Railway and the Nanxi Railway are completed, the Hubei region, which has been basically completed by the trunk railway, is connected with Henan and Shaanxi by rail, and the Wujing region (Wuchang and Jingzhou regions), the current industrial center of the Ba'ath Party, can be directly linked with the new receiving areas through the railway, so that the Baathification Party's industrial system can be quickly replicated and difused.

In addition, only by connecting the Han River Plain, which has a huge agricultural production capacity, with its huge agricultural production capacity, with the new receiving areas, can the grain supply of the Han River grain base to the new receiving areas be realized. Without the protection of railways and roads, the Baath Party would not have been able to take responsibility for the food, clothing, shelter and transportation of the people in these newly received areas. If you cannot be responsible for the clothing, food, housing and transportation of the people in the newly received areas, you will not have the support and support of the local people. Without the support and support of the local masses, it would be impossible to organize and lead the masses in the newly received areas to carry out local construction.

Military action is only a means, not an end. It is true that new territory can be taken over by military means, but it is impossible to gain the support and support of the local masses by relying on military means. Therefore, in Wang Shuhui's view, the plan formulated by the Central Committee of the Baath Party is still more realistic.

The new plan formulated by the Central Committee of the Baath Party is indeed a bit conservative in the eyes of many. In the face of the new situation, the Central Committee of the Baath Party gave greater autonomy to the base areas in southern Liaoning and Ludong. The two base areas are allowed to draw up military plans that each base area can undertake by their own logistical supply system according to their own conditions and submit them to the Central Military Commission, which will review and approve them in accordance with their professional opinions before submitting them to the Baath Party **********. Once the ********** approves these plans, the base areas can be implemented according to the plans.

However, in terms of overall strategy, the Central Committee of the Baath Party has put the work of restoring local production and carrying out local construction in the first place, in accordance with the criterion of first being difficult and then easy. Military strikes against the various remnants of hostile forces have been put on the back burner.

In other words, as far as the base areas are concerned, it is the first priority to receive the territory and population left behind by the enemy, restore local agricultural production, and organize and lead the local masses to carry out local construction work. The main task of the military units in the two base areas is to escort the restoration of local agricultural production and local construction, rather than to rush into military operations to pursue the remnants of the enemy.

In this way, the main task of the Liaoning South Military Region became to take over the Shenyang area left behind by the Jin Jurchen. The main task of the Ludong base area has also become to quickly complete the purge and transformation of the Liaodong warlord group, carry out population adjustment of the local area, restore local agricultural production, and invest in the construction of local farms and factories.

The work of the main force of the Fuxing Army, which was assigned in the vicinity of Beijing, was also changed from a combat mission to a receiving mission.

A city of Beijing with a population of more than one million people will give them a huge headache.

While the Central Committee of the Ba'ath Party was busy formulating new plans in response to the new situation, the Central Committee of the Baath Party received an interesting piece of information.

After boarding the steam paddle steamer purchased from the Barist Party by the big merchants of Jiangnan in Tianjin, Emperor Chongzhen, who fled to Nanjing by sea in fear, actually organized a force of less than 10,000 men in Nanjing very radically in an attempt to cross the Yangtze River to restore the Ming Dynasty's control over the area on the north bank of the Yangtze River.

The Baath Navy's Yangtze River Fleet was immediately counterattacked by the Ming Dynasty's newly built Yangtze River Fleet, which consisted of ten steam paddle steamers supplied by the Jiangnan family.

In addition to the total annihilation of the new fleet of the Ming Dynasty, the city of Nanjing on the bank of the Yangtze River was heavily bombarded by the Yangtze River Fleet of the Baxing Party.

Zhu Youzhen, the Chongzhen Emperor who was frightened by the "terrorist" shelling of the Yangtze River Fleet of the Babotalist Party, actually abandoned the city of Nanjing, and took the already small number of troops in the city of Nanjing, and went directly to Hangzhou Mansion to establish a temporary line.

This unexpected situation caught the Yangtze River Fleet off guard. They asked the Military Commission what to do next after Nanjing, which had completely lost any defensive capability, was taken over by the marines of the Yangtze River Fleet.
