After everyone returned to China from the movie, Chen Shao said lightly: "The purpose of today's meeting is to prevent Japan from occupying Jinan. ”

Jiang Baili thought for a while and said: "Chairman, this is not easy to do, unless we directly take Shanxi and Hebei, we can directly send troops to Jinan, Shandong." ”

"Chairman, we are now fully capable of taking China and winning the country." Cai Ye also said that he now hopes that Chen Shao can directly say yes and send troops to win the whole country, but he can't pinch Chen Shao's pulse, and he doesn't know what Chen Shao thinks.

Hearing Cai Yi's words, the Shaozhuang faction led by Chen Gengpeng, Hu Zongnan, Luo Rong and others all spoke one after another, roughly meaning that they agreed with Cai Yi's concept and supported winning the whole country now.

Chen Shao waved his hand and motioned for the house not to move. The current history is completely different from the previous history, the bald head went to Nanjing early, and the formation of a government will begin as soon as the Northern Expedition is over. At present, the southwest is only an autonomous government, and it has not affected other regions. According to the plan, after taking the whole country, the country will be established directly, and then the government will be formed that will affect the whole country.

Seeing that his subordinates looked eager for their immediate consent, Chen Shao was also reflecting, is it time now? The construction of the Great Northwest is still underway, and it will take at least two years for the basic construction to be successful, and at least in 1930, the north and the south will be unified. Is it going to be two years ahead now? The Red Police has only been upgraded once, and now the huge territory they have won has not been upgraded, do they want to win the whole country?

Chen Shao sat on the chair without saying a word, squinting his eyes and gently tapping the table with one hand. The generals in the conference room looked at the leader in front of them and consciously lowered their breathing, for fear of interrupting his deep thought. They all know Chen Shao's habits, and once they fall into contemplation, they all have this expression.

At present, the southwest has reached an economic aggregate of more than 20 billion Chinese dollars (equivalent to the US dollar, but not pegged to the US dollar). It is ranked fourth after Germany. At this time, it has surpassed the United Kingdom and is three times that of Japan. The total economy of the United States is five times that of the Southwest, and Germany has billions more than China. The USSR had almost 10 billion more. The main thing is that it is too expensive to develop the northwest, but if it is slowed down, with its industrial base, it will soon be able to surpass the Soviet Union and Germany and throw small Japan far away.

Thinking of this, Chen Shao said directly: "Now the construction corps is dragging there, to be honest, I don't want to be unified so quickly, but the form is compelling, if Nanjing does not agree to my request, then it can only cut through the chaos quickly." ”

Many people were a little disappointed with the answer given by Chen Shao, but fortunately, they didn't say death, and there was still a chance. The 800,000-strong army of the Construction Corps was dragged down, and although these soldiers were not real soldiers, they also had strong combat effectiveness, and they did not let go of military training while building.

Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi both had a feeling of being valued and trusted in the 800,000 army, although the 800,000 was not the main force, but the combat effectiveness was not worse than that of other warlords, which moved them very much, and at the same time, they admired Chen Shao's mind even more. Put yourself in their shoes, they don't have Chen Shao's courage at all, maybe this is one of the reasons why they failed. What all the generals don't know is that maybe they don't feel it, and even if they do, they will be ignored. That is, in every house and training ground in the barracks, there are photos or statues of Chen Shao, and the recruits and veterans who enter the barracks for training have been instilled by instructors with the idea of loyalty to the supreme leader. A soldier is not a soldier of an individual, he is a soldier of the Supreme Leader, a soldier of the people. To be loyal to the leader is to be loyal to the people and to the country. After being brainwashed by a biochemical instructor, even the iron man will be melted.

In the past, Chen Shao didn't think about ascending the altar, and he didn't pay much attention to these. When he made up his mind and pushed himself to the altar, all schools, military academies, barracks, offices of the Longteng Group and government offices in the southwest were erected statues and photos of Chen Shao, and his deeds and policies towards the people were publicized everywhere. For a while, there were countless followers, and many people in the southwest also hung photos of Chen Shao in their homes. Chen Shao's path to the altar has taken the most important step, as long as he does not make any big mistakes in the future, his divine position will gradually stabilize, and eventually it will develop to the point that no one can shake his position.

The current Chinese nation needs someone to lead them to a better future, Chen Shao just wants to play his role, know the future, the red police base, these are not available to others, and it is also his biggest capital. In the future, the people will not only be rich in life, but also spiritually, and the Chinese nation will have a sense of pride in standing on top of the world.

Cai Yi said with some doubts: "Commander, don't Nanjing promise you anything?" ”

"Anti-Japanese." Chen Shaozhi said two short words, but the murderous intent revealed made everyone present feel a chill in their hearts. They don't know why their supreme leader hates Japan so much. The current southwest and northwest are not even a single Japanese hair, as soon as they occupy an area, they begin to drive away the Japanese, and many generals have asked Chen Shao about this. Chen Shao's answer is very simple, should you wait until the other party does something to be angry with everyone and God before hating him? Japan's ambitions are so obvious that they don't need a reason.

"What about Shanxi? Hit it directly? Jiang Baili said. He had to ask, in the past two years, Chen Shao has supported a lot of things to Shanxi, even some 105mm howitzers, and also supported them to build their own air force, the scale is not very large, the only condition is that these weapons cannot be used to participate in the civil war. It has also invested in many factories in Shanxi, supported Yan Xishan's Shanxi company, and developed people's livelihood in Shanxi. Many people were puzzled by this, but Chen Shao just smiled faintly and did not answer.

"Don't worry, wait for Nanjing's reply, as for the Feng department, then don't use it, I have my own way." Chen Shao said confidently that Zhang Zuolin doesn't have much time to live according to history, and Little Japan is about to do something to him. For Zhang Zuolin's current uncooperative attitude, the Japanese base camp is already very annoyed. But Chen Shao didn't have a good impression of him, and he had a lot of good feelings for his son at that time, and he put a lot of chips on Zhang Xueliang over the years.

After the meeting, a telegram was sent to the bald headquarters.

At this time, when the bald head was having a headache about Japan's movements, he was startled when he saw the telegram, which only had a short sentence: Anti-Japanese, I will send weapons to the southwest, and if I don't resist Japan, I will come to the southwest myself. Only give you three days to think about it. Signature: Chen Shao

He was very jealous of the bald head in the southwest, and according to his idea, after the end of the Northern Expedition, he would rely on the rich territory and rely on Britain and the United States to enrich his strength, and then come to compete with the southwest. I didn't expect Japan's actions to provoke this great god at that time, and it was not easy to provoke on both sides. But it's not a good stubble, if you meet together, it will be wonderful.

If the southwest is allowed to come in and fight Japan, and the southwest wins, what if you don't leave? Japan has won, and what will happen if it increases its attack on China.

The bald head was in trouble now, and his right hand couldn't help but touch his head, thinking of many possibilities, but none of them could satisfy him. Now both sides are putting pressure on themselves, and it is difficult to decide.

Why didn't he even think of accepting weapons from the southwest and going to fight Japan? Cowardice before fighting.

At this time, he immediately telegraphed the British and American embassies, hoping to suppress Japan in public opinion. In response to the bald head's request, both countries have a unified answer: In order to protect the people, the Japanese side has no choice, and I hope that you can negotiate with the Japanese side and seek a solution that is satisfactory to both sides.

Regarding Yingmei's answer, although the bald head is angry, there is nothing to be done.

As soon as the three days passed, just when the bald head was in trouble, Hikosuke Fukuda called someone to pass an ultimatum.

Three days ago, Hikosuke Fukuda learned that the bald head had left Jinan, and he was immediately angry, and he originally wanted to catch the bald head and force him to sign the alliance under the city.

Ultimatum: Your Excellency the Bald Commander-in-Chief: Your Commander-in-Chief has repeatedly violated his statements to China and foreign countries. This is an ominous event that the regular army under your command has brought about this ominous event, and this commander is very sorry. All the damage to the Emperor's tribe and the inhabitants, as well as compensation for the destruction of the honour of the country, etc., are subject to the representation of the Imperial Government at another date, and the Commander-in-Chief does not wish to say anything about it, but dares to make the following demands on your Commander-in-Chief: 1. The High Military Attaché in relation to harassment and atrocities shall be severely punished. 2. The army against our army must be disarmed in front of the Japanese army. 3. All anti-Japanese propaganda is strictly prohibited in the areas under the control of the Yugoslav Army. 4. The Southern Army must retreat to the 20-mile strip on both sides of Jinan and the Jiaoji Road in order to isolate them. 5. In order to monitor the implementation of the matters listed on the right, the barracks of Xinzhuang and Zhangzhuang shall be opened within 12 hours. We hope that the matters listed on the right will be replied within 12 hours.

Temporary Shandong sent the commander of the 6th Division, Hikosuke Fukuda.

When the generals of the Northern Expeditionary Army saw this ultimatum, they simply regarded the Northern Expeditionary Army as a defeated country in battle, and the anti-Japanese soldiers as prisoners of war who surrendered, and most of them were angry; But the bald head is unwilling to "make a big plot with a small intolerability", so he is ready to accept it all, except for the second article. At the moment, six replies were drafted, and Xiong Shihui and Luo Jialun were sent to negotiate.

At this time, the bald head had already made up his mind to negotiate with the Japanese side. When Xiong Shihui and Luo Jialun went to negotiate, he personally sent a telegram to Southwest to persuade Chen Shao to be restrained, and he would settle it through negotiations.

Chen Shao immediately received a call back from the bald head, and after reading the telegram, he took a deep breath and picked up the phone.

"Pick me up."

It didn't take long for the phone to go through.

Chen Shao said directly: "Find Yan Xishan to listen to the phone." ”

"Wait a minute."

Not long after, Yan Xishan's voice came from the phone.

"Chairman Chen, why do you have time to call me?"

"It's time for you to make up your mind, I don't have time to wait." Chen Shao said it very bluntly. Yan Xishan can also understand this sentence alone.

"I promise you."

Yan Xishan hung up the phone, and at this time he suddenly felt a sense of relaxation, and there was a feeling of letting go of his burden.
