The retreat of the Japanese intervention forces left the Red Army with precious time to digest the results of the battle. In the cities, the Red Army accelerated the transfer of factories and made preparations for a long war in Shanghai, while in the countryside it accelerated the intensity of land reform. As for the warlords in various parts of the country, the high-level officials put forward the slogan of establishing an "anti-Japanese national united front" and hoped to convene powerful warlords from all walks of life to hold peace talks and establish a coalition government.

Lin Han, who came from later generations and was well aware of the virtues of the warlords of various Chinese countries in this era, did not have much hope for the powerful warlords in China in this era, but his views on this issue were similar to those of the top echelons of the Red Army. Meals must be eaten one bite at a time, and the enemy must be defeated one by one, and no matter how strong the force is, it cannot be the enemy of everyone at once. In the present situation, the imperialist intervention army is the greatest enemy of the nascent republic, and as for the powerful faction of the warlords everywhere, they are nothing more than dry bones. It is more difficult to fight a certain threat to the current Red Army, that is, Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi of the Gui Department.

Li Huamei, together with Lin Handu, discussed with the upper echelons of the Red Army the strength and "discipline" of various warlords in China in this era.

Shanxi's Jin lineage is Yan Xishan, this person has a certain ethnic lineage, and once Japan invades in an all-out way, he will basically not become a traitor. In terms of farming and military industry, Yan Laoxi is very attentive, but his biggest problem is that his strength basically depends on the landlord gentry, that is, a strengthened version of the "land rich man" level. The combat effectiveness of the army is very poor, but the Fu Zuoyi department separated from the Yan family in the future, because he studied the eight roads in history, he was called the "seven and a half roads", whether it was the Anti-Japanese War or the civil war, the combat effectiveness of the troops was very strong.

Fu Zuoyi at this time. Although he had just served as the chairman of Suiyuan Province (now the central region of Inner Mongolia) as he had done in history, he had won this position by strength. Although he is now implementing the policy of "immigration, solidifying the borders, developing production, and consolidating national defense" as in history, his farming work has only just begun, and his foundation has not yet been firmly established. Once Japan invaded China in 1935, he was still limited in his role.

It has been six years since he traveled, and Lin Han has become more and more aware that what one person can do is actually extremely limited, and to do great things, you must have a strong organization and gather a group of like-minded people to achieve great things. Fu Zuoyi can do those things in history. It can bring so much trouble to the PLA during the Liberation War. That is also what he can do only after he has relied on the Anti-Japanese War for eight years, planted the "fields" for eight years, cultivated talents for eight years, and has his own personnel system.

I think back to the novels I read before I crossed the Republic of China. Those who are the protagonists of the author's pen. Airborne into this era. I didn't practice any basic skills, so I relied on moving my mouth, and the tiger's body shook again and again. Talents are rolling in, the little brother is loyal to a hundred plus locked, Lin Han just wants to vomit now, what a fucking YY!

Another powerful warlord in the Beijing-Tianjin region, Zhang Xueliang's Northeast Army, after talking with Lin Han two years ago, Zhang Shaoshuai listened to his advice and re-regularized the existing Northeast Army. A group of officers were sent to study abroad, and German instructors were also invited to the military academy to help train officers. However, the Northeast Army had too many problems, there were many mountains, and the "historical debts" of the past were too heavy, and Lin Han could not say how much its fighting spirit and will to resist could change in the past two years. Considering what Zhang Shaoshuai did during the Xi'an Incident in history, Lin Han can only say with some certainty that he should not be a traitor, but the generals under him cannot guarantee it. Among the warlords of the Republic of China, the Northeast Army's combat power was at the bottom. Although the Sichuan army was poor in the civil war, it could be called a "true man" in the foreign war.

Yang Hucheng's Northwest Army, the equipment is too poor, the morale and combat effectiveness, look at the history of their Xi'an Incident before the "suppression of bandits" in northern Shaanxi, you can also score a score. Although the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army are better than the Northeast Army, they are only 50 steps away from 100 paces.

The most dangerous place in the north is not the Beijing-Tianjin region, which is close to the northeastern area, but Shandong Province, which is close to Jiangsu Province.

Shandong is Han Fuyu's territory, he broke away from Feng Yuxiang before the Central Plains War and defected to Chang Kaishen, that is, Zheng Zhiqing, the son of Zheng Sanfa, and defeated the Jin army in Shandong Han to consolidate the forward front for Chang Kaishen. He clarified the rule of officials, banned smoking, and suppressed bandits, and vigorously developed Shandong's education undertakings, built model new villages, and called on Shandong's rural areas to vigorously learn from model villages to promote economic security. Han killed a lot of people in Shandong, and most of them were bandits and tobacco dealers. In addition, Han also inspected the people in the countryside and tested various officials in Shandong in the form of private visits to microservices. But this person's appearance during the Anti-Japanese War was also very unbearable, and like Sun Yuanliang, he was a famous long-legged general who fled without a fight. The Japanese really landed and fought in Qingdao, Shandong, and it was almost predictable that this monarch would flee thousands of miles without a fight. His appearance will definitely not be much better than Zhang Shaoshuai at the time of the Northeast Incident.

Before the crossing, when Lin Han saw Han Fuyu's history before the Anti-Japanese War on the Internet Baidu Encyclopedia, he spit out to netizens on the Internet: This guy, like Yan Laoxi, is too fucking like the protagonist of the Republic of China warlord article written by the author of the starting point.

It's just that history is not a novel, and these big figures in history, except for Chang Kaishen, who is a strange man who is not as good as buying (of course, Chang people and horses will do this because they are caused by the class interests based on compradors, and not by the will of people), the rest of the warlords of all walks of life actually understand the importance of "farming" to some extent, and some ideal warlords are actually working hard to farm and develop the economy and military industry within their "ability".

Of course, because their biggest problem is still the "class interests" they rely on, they want to play industrialization and "big farming", and there are too many pots and jars involved, and they can do it like Yan Xishan, which is already the ultimate warlord of the Republic of China. Industrialization is a massive system project, and in addition to a huge amount of investment, it is also a consciousness that requires long-term "loss-making" management, which can only be accomplished by leaders and political groups with iron-fisted means and iron-fisted will, such as Stalin or someone in New China, who was demonized by later generations.

However, in the Republic of China era, the power base of all warlords was based on the interests of the gentry and landlords. Where is it possible for this group to cut flesh and bloodlet for a long time for the sake of the overall interests of the country, and to carry out industrialization through gnashing of teeth. Industrialization is a system project, not the construction of a few factories is called industrialization. The investment of funds is one thing, the utilization rate of capital is one thing, and the loss of operation in the early stage is another thing.

As early as September 1934, after the Red Army won a great victory after the Autumn Offensive, the Hubei Red Army united with the Sichuan Red Army and sent an expeditionary force of 30,000 men to Shaanxi. There he joined forces with the Red Army of Northern Shaanxi led by Liu Zhidan. Improved the dilemma of insufficient influence of the Red Army in the North. At that time, the Red Army was already the most powerful political entity in China. Full of confidence, when "transiting" along the way, the small warlords in various places did not dare to intercept them at all. Instead, he "ate pot pulp" all the way. "Welcome to the king's crossing". It's terrible - of course, in his bones, he is actually terrified to send the plague god.

Today, the strength of the Red Army operating in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo region has swelled to 50,000 men. The armament and armament were also greatly improved, and the Yanchang oil fields were occupied. At the beginning of this year, a batch of imported oil production equipment was quickly sent to the base areas in northern Shaanxi, and local oil production has increased. (Note: Historically, from 1935 to 1949, the Red Army extracted a total of 3,193 tons of oil here)

The consolidation of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo base area gave the Red Army an important bridgehead in the north. After taking the whole of Hubei and Henan provinces, the ties between the Red Army in the south and northern Shaanxi were further strengthened. Once the Japanese army entered the pass from the northeast to attack Shanxi and Hebei, and the Red Army in Henan and northern Shaanxi, they would take the opportunity to enter these two provinces, and then, as in history, build an anti-Japanese base in the Taihang Mountain area. The Red Army in Jiangsu will also march north into Shandong after the outbreak of fighting in Shandong.

In the plan formulated by the Red Army, the three provinces of Shanxi, Hebei, and Shandong will be the big battlefields and quagmire of China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in the future. Today, not 1937 but 1935, if Japan, which has not yet digested the northeast, wants to launch a full-scale war of aggression against China at this time, they will be mired in the big quagmire of these three provinces because they are not greedy enough.

"The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was an overall war between countries, and it was bound to be a long and protracted war, and it was extremely ridiculous to think that a quick victory would be achieved after a few battles."

This was a telegram sent by Lin Han to the upper echelons of the Red Army yesterday, and this view was also endorsed by the upper echelons of the Red Army. According to their assumptions, once a full-scale war of resistance broke out, the entire north would be a big battlefield, and it would be a protracted battle of endurance and will.

Even with the help of the Air Force, victory was achieved in the air and naval battles around Shanghai, but the leadership of the upper echelons of the Red Army, headed by Li Runshi, was still extremely sober on this point.

At the moment, they are sailing down the river by boat and moving their headquarters to Nanking to facilitate their command. However, Nanjing was an easy place to defend and difficult to defend, and it was not suitable for building a capital, and in the vision of the Red Army's top brass, Wuhan, which was located inland and had military factories, was the center of gravity. However, the future capital will naturally choose the historical Beijing.

As for the situation in southern China, Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi of Guangxi Gui, from the appearance of the two in history, it is impossible for them to become traitors, although Chen Jitang has many conflicts with the Red Army, this person can also be called a warlord with discipline, and it is impossible to be like those in the north.

However, the leaders of these two forces have never been able to break away from the mentality of warlords, and their troops have not been able to complete the transformation from a "warlord-type" army to a more combat-effective "revolutionary army." Now the Red Army was under the threat of a joint British and Japanese attack, but the British were limited in their forces. Due to geographical and distance factors, it was impossible for the Japanese to penetrate Chinese mainland from here until they had solved the problems in the north and the Yangtze River valley, because it was too far from the basic land supply area. And the British, when Germany under Hannah is rising strongly, how many troops can the weakening Britain send into the bottomless pit of China?

Therefore, the attitude of the Red Army towards the warlords in these two places is as long as these people do not drag their feet during the war of resistance, and the two sides can maintain the non-aggression relationship in front of them. Compared with the Gui system in Guangxi, another important role of Chen Jitang in Guangdong is that in the future war, the Red Army is likely to be cut off from all foreign trade routes by the British and Japanese navies, and at this time, it can only carry out entrepot trade through the hands of Chen Jitang in Guangdong. In the past few years, the Red Army has been staring at the artillery party and fighting fiercely, but it has deliberately spared Guangdong Province, and it is precisely because of this factor.

As for the other small warlords in the interior, the Sichuan Army and the Guizhou Army have received material and personnel support from the Red Army in Hubei and Hunan in recent years. The good days of the warlords in Sichuan and Guizhou provinces are over, and the Red Army in the base areas of these two provinces alone is enough to suppress the warlords in these two places and dare not mess around.

As for the Soviet Union, the Red Army's most powerful "foreign aid" north of the Yangtze River, Lin Han wrote to the upper echelons of the Red Army many times before and after returning to China, repeatedly warning them that when formulating future strategies, they should absolutely not hold out too much hope for the Soviet factor, and they must not become the "foundation and reliance" of the national grand strategy.

"At the moment, I see the appearance of this traverser. It had a tremendous positive impact on the Chinese revolution. But please don't underestimate the negative impact and crisis I have caused, especially after my identity as a "time-traveler" has been revealed. ”

"Looking at the long term, for a country, a time-traveler who knows the development of history in the next hundred years. Once the forces of the state are combined. It can no longer be compared to a catalyst. It's a functional amplifier! ”

"There is no nationalism in any ism, nationalism is more important. The USSR is the USSR. Germany is Germany, China is still China. To hell with the words of Lenin's communists without borders, our time, both China and the USSR, with their own actions turned this phrase into a nonsense. The Soviet Union, which occupied a large area of land in the north, and at the same time was bent on Mongolian independence to increase its buffer zone, and the Soviet Union also did not want to see the rise of a unified and powerful China. Stalin, like me, was a realist and a utilitarian. For the sake of the interests of the Soviet Union, in the next few years, when China needs it most, the Soviet Union will definitely drop the chain -- in the eyes of the Soviet Union, a China that combines with the traverser is also an enemy of the Soviet Union, and we must not forget this. ”

About the "bad words" of the USSR, Lin Han said a lot. During the Kiel negotiations that year, he deliberately let the representatives of the Red Army see the scene of the Soviet Union and Germany "opening up Poland with their mouths" and "opening up the territory" with a ruler to divide the sphere of influence in Eastern Europe, in order to sober up the remaining idealists in the upper echelons of the Red Army who believed in Lenin's nonsense that "communism has no borders."

When Lenin put forward this theory, it was based on the red of the whole of Eastern Europe, even Germany, and his goal at that time was to establish a union of the Great Soviet Union, and even wanted to make Berlin, Germany the capital of this "Great Soviet Union", so he put forward this set of theories. However, the defeat of the Soviet Red Army at the Battle of Warsaw frustrated Lenin's idea. Compared with Lenin, Stalin, a Great Russologist, a realist, shouted that "communists have no borders", both in the Soviet zone and when the upper echelons of the Red Army in Shanghai met with them, Lin Han commented on them very blatantly:

"In the next 20 years, the Soviet Union will be stronger than China. Of course, the stronger side can shout like this, because this statement can be interpreted from another angle: what is yours is mine, and mine is still mine! Can the weak side still say to the strong side that it's not yours but mine? Look at the Mongolian problem, when the time comes, they will definitely use this kind of nonsense to talk about things. ”

After June 1935, the Red Army's vision for the domestic situation was to establish an anti-Japanese national united front, no longer treating the warlords in China as enemies as the former Nanjing government, but in the name of the War of Resistance, to maintain cooperative and peaceful relations with them as much as possible, and the two sides were united with the outside world. At present, the Red Army is the strongest military entity in China, and this is both an advantage and a disadvantage. No one knows how many traitors like Shi Yousan will be born in these warlord forces in this changed historical plane, and I don't know if there will be a new "borrowing Orientals to help suppress" Wu Sangui of the Republic of China. Just this morning, news came from Tokyo that the high-ranking officials of the former artillery party who had escaped from sea on the Zhongshan ship had arrived in Tokyo. "Financed" by the Japanese, they announced the creation of a "government in exile of the Republic of China" in Tokyo.

Although this is just a joke about the government without an inch of Chinese land under its feet, it has given the Japanese an excuse to "openly" "enter" China. Although Song Ziwen fled to Hong Kong and announced his resignation, and Wang Jingwei was also killed by Dai Yunong as a suicide warrant, there was never a shortage of people in the Artillery Party who were willing to be traitors.

In the war on the outskirts of Shanghai, the Red Army got off to a good start, and the Japanese intervention forces that had been beaten back retreated, which also made their plan to use Shanghai as a springboard to directly invade the Yangtze River valley in vain. With a large number of aircraft and artillery, and at the same time no forward base and no air supremacy, it was not so easy to figure out how to invade the Yangtze River valley by sea route.

It will take time for the Chisei to be restored, and it will also take time for Kaga to complete the transformation. According to Lin Han's estimate, if the Japanese aircraft carrier wants to make another sortie, it will be a month later at the earliest. The worst-case scenario was that the Japanese went crazy after being beaten this time, and sent all their warships to the southern coastline with antiaircraft guns, and forcibly opened up a landing ground on the beach with the deterrence of naval guns.

But so what?

In Lin Han's construction of the Red Army, it was in this situation that the air force did not have to pay attention to the warships at sea, and no longer had to sacrifice valuable planes and pilots to bomb the thick-skinned warships that were difficult for the air force of this era to sink, but only needed to target the materials and munitions that landed.

Even if the Japanese get the dock, it will take time to load and unload the munitions. The Red Army could completely ignore the warships at sea, and use airplanes to bomb the munitions piled up on the docks every day, and unload the ships from the ships and have no time to disperse.

It will also take time to establish a field airfield at a landing ground forcibly carved out by warships.

Without air supremacy, unable to establish an airfield, and blocked in the supply of materials, how long can the Japanese army hold on to the mainland? Even if the Japanese forcibly take a small piece of territory, their losses in the process will be so great that the Japanese will not be able to bear it.

The biggest advantage of the Red Army at present is that the fighters in its hands have formed a "generation gap" advantage over Britain and Japan. With the scientific and technological strength of Britain and Japan, they can develop a fighter that is no less than the FW90. But the development of a new aircraft takes time.

On the Japanese side, the Type 95 fighter that the Japanese are now working on for the Navy would be obsolete even if it was in service - because it was still an obsolete biplane. The overall performance is still not as good as the FW90. There is not even a shadow of the Type 96 fighter that can confront the FW90, and the development of a new aircraft will take time, and even if Japan changes its concept now and develops it urgently, it will not even want to use the fighter against the FW90 without a year.

The British Navy was no better, they had just developed a prototype and had just been equipped with naval Sailfish attack aircraft, which were also backward biplanes, but they were more powerful, a little better than the Japanese, but they were also only a limited good. Historically, even for a long time after the outbreak of World War II, the aircraft carriers of the British Empire used extremely rubbish fighter jets.

As for the Hurricane, he has just completed the transition from drawings to prototypes, and is testing and refining its performance, which is comparable to the FW90 in terms of performance. However, the aircraft is not a Gundam aircraft, and there will be no "myth" that the performance of the test aircraft is far superior to that of the production aircraft. The Hurricane fighter had to wait until after 1936 to complete all the defects and reach mass production.

Therefore, in the coming year, the Red Army will have an absolute advantage over the British and Japanese air forces in terms of performance, and the only problem is that the Red Army will not be able to produce its own aircraft, and will rely on imports. As soon as the war descends into a long war of attrition and the sea route is blocked, the replenishment of new aircraft is very problematic. Although after taking northern Shaanxi, the Red Army could obtain planes transferred from the Soviet Union through the Guò Mongolian communication line, or obtain some aircraft spare parts through secret channels, this was not a long-term solution after all.

After the Battle of Shanghai, Lin Han's advice to the leaders of the Red Army was to "live a rich life and live poorly", use the air force carefully, and try not to fight a war of attrition that would cause great losses to the air force: such as bombing warships. In this era, a 200-kilogram bomb can hit a passenger ship, but it is really ineffective to hit a warship, especially a battleship. After the lessons of the Battle of Shanghai, when the Japanese who had been driven away came back again, they would definitely fill their warships with all kinds of anti-aircraft weapons.
