Chapter 520 - Treaty Signed
It's time to solve the problem of North Korea, Xiao Zhenlei brought Wang Yaqiao to ask about the situation of the Japanese army in North Korea, originally Wang Yaqiao had introduced the situation in North Korea to Xiao Zhenlei earlier, but Xiao Zhenlei has a lot of affairs, where do you remember so many things.
"Jiuguang, I came to you this time, mainly to let you talk about the situation in North Korea!"
"Okay, President!" Wang Yaqiao immediately agreed, he had been notified before he came, so he was prepared.
"President, now the resistance forces in various parts of Korea have basically been wiped out by Japan, and some people in North Korea have organized armed forces to fight for independence before, but after several bloody suppressions by the Japanese, no one dares to carry out armed activities again, in fact, most of them have been wiped out, and a few people are worried that they will not see hope and give up."
"Previously, the local army of North Korea has been disbanded by the Japanese, so now North Korea basically does not have its own army, Japan has incorporated a considerable part of the disbanded Korean army into a considerable part of the elite and strong by obedient Korean soldiers, about 30,000 people, divided into three divisions, Japan was stationed in Korea originally had two divisions, the 19th Division and the 20th Division, the last time the 19th Division was transferred to the Liaodong Peninsula was wiped out by our army, now Korea has only one 20th Division, the Japanese Governor in Korea is named Akiyama Yoshiko, At the same time, he is also the commander of the Japanese army stationed in Korea, two months ago he was promoted to the rank of army general, this person's specialty is cavalry tactics, he studied and studied cavalry tactics during his study in France, what really made him famous was during the Russo-Japanese War, in the Russo-Japanese War, he went out as the commander of the first cavalry brigade (the second army), and advocated that the cavalry should be assembled to maneuver in a large battle, rather than scattered to engage in reconnaissance. And in order to avoid the weakness of the cavalry's attack power, it was strongly recommended to bring heavy machine guns. Later ones even brought artillery. Thus, in the Battle of Mukden, the assault of the Cossack cavalry, which was three times its own and claimed to be the strongest in the world, was broken. In particular, the Battle of Heigoutai after the Battle of Shahe. With a force of 8,000 troops, it withstood the attack of 110,000 Russian troops for three days, defeated the Russian army again with machine gun cavalry, won the turning point of the campaign, and forced the commander of the Russian Second Army to lose his position. He also sent cavalry deep behind enemy lines, burning grain and grass to cut off communications! Later, he also served as a cavalry warden, a delegate to the Hague Peace Conference, the commander of the 13th Division, and the commander of the Guards Division".
"Also. He also has a younger brother, named Akiyama Shinyuki, unlike his elder brother Akiyama Yoshikoshi from the Army, Akiyama Shinshi from the Navy, studied in the United States at his own expense, and studied at the United States Naval Officer School in Annapolis, where the tutor was Alfred, the famous inventor of the theory of sea power? Thayer? Mahan, Mayuki Akiyama was the first in the Japanese Navy to propose a distinction between strategy and tactics, and he introduced the concept of "war affairs" at the same time. It played an inestimable role in the modernization and institutionalization of the Japanese Navy. On the eve of the Russo-Japanese War, Navy Minister Gonbei Yamamoto appointed Heihachiro Togo as commander of the Combined Fleet, and at the same time, he also hired Masayuki Akiyama as the first staff officer of the Combined Fleet, responsible for the formulation and implementation of specific tactics. Dongxiang's evaluation of him is that wisdom is like a spring! All in all. Both brothers are rare military talents in Japan."
"In addition to the 20th Division of the Japanese Army and the 30,000 Korean troops integrated by the Japanese, the Japanese also recruited more than 10,000 patrol officers in Korea to cooperate with the Japanese army and the Korean army to maintain law and order. The 20th Division of the Japanese Army and the 30,000 Korean troops were basically deployed in the north of Korea to guard against our army, and only patrols in the south maintained local order! ”
Xiao Zhenlei smoked a cigarette. Spit out a puff of smoke, "It seems that this North Korea is not about whether it is good or not." However, whether we want to fight or not, the Japanese also know that they can't prevent it, so they have transferred all their forces to the north of Korea, and we only need to find a few random ships to transport some men and horses over to land anywhere along the coast of Korea! ”
Wang Yaqiao nodded and said: "Yes, according to the information we have obtained, in the past half a year, the Japanese have not built any fortifications in northern Korea at all, I am afraid that they know that it is useless to repair them, anyway, it is just a show, just make a show, there is no need to spend money to find guilt."
After leaving, Xiao Zhenlei sent a telegram to Chen Jizu, who was in charge of the Korean operation, asking him to immediately return to the capital by special plane to report on his work, and he wanted to explain some things in person, and the Korean War had dragged on for a long time so far, and it could be fought.
In the process of Chen Jizu rushing back to the capital to report on his work, Lu Zhengxiang came to the presidential palace to meet Xiao Zhenlei again, and he reported to Xiao Zhenlei: "President, in the past two days, I have personally talked with Li Xi's secret envoys Li Xiangjun and Li Weizhong, and I have also talked with the opposition groups in North Korea represented by Syngman Rhee, and they both agreed to the title of the restoration of the Kingdom of Korea, the titles of Li Xi and King Li Kunhui, and agreed to let the DPRK join the Federation of Great China under the protection of China. He also said that as long as they could drive out the Japanese and let Korea break away from the rule of the Japanese, they would agree to implement a constitutional monarchy on behalf of Yi Hee, and the king and the royal family would enjoy the worship of the state and not pay attention to political affairs! ”
Xiao Zhenlei spit out the smoke ring and asked, "Have they all agreed to the conditions for joining the Great China Federation?" Have you shown them the agreement? ”
Lu Zhengxiang said: "I have shown them separately, and they all said that they have no objection!" ”
When Xiao Zhenlei heard this, he immediately instructed: "That's fine, you try your best to find time to sign treaties and agreements with them!" ”
"Understood!" Lu Zhengxiang agreed, and then remembered the matter on the southeast peninsula, and said: "President, I have sent the president's new plan to our diplomats on the southeast peninsula, according to the feedback and confidence of our diplomats in various countries, the problem is not big, although the political parties in those countries are a little reluctant and troublesome, but no one dares to openly contradict, now the new cabinets and governments at all levels of the countries on the southeast peninsula have been set up very smoothly, and the kings of various countries are relatively honest, and no changes have been found for the time being."
Xiao Zhenlei thought of Siam and asked, "How is the situation on the Siam side?" ”
Lu Zhengxiang shook his head and said: "President, Yang Shiqi is in charge of this matter, I don't know very well!" ”
"Okay, you go back first!"
"Yes, President, I'm leaving!"
Then Xiao Zhenlei found Yang Shiqi and asked about the situation after Siam was blocked in all directions, according to Yang Shiqi's report, Siam's current situation is expected, just wait for Siam to be unable to hold it first.
Chen Jizu came back, rested at home for a night on the day he returned, and came to the presidential palace the next morning to meet Xiao Zhenlei, who affirmed his actions in Liaodong this year.
"The military council has decided that the DPRK will be attacked soon, what is the situation of the front-line troops?"
Chen Jizu sat up straight and replied: "In the past six months, the soldiers have been preparing to attack the Japanese army in the direction of North Korea all the time, and there has not been a moment of slackness, every day the training of the soldiers is carried out as usual, and the weapons and equipment will be routinely inspected and maintained. ”
Xiao Zhenlei nodded, waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, sit down and sit down, you probably already understand the situation of the Japanese army in Korea, right?" ”
"Yes, President!"
"And how are you going to fight?"
According to what we have learned, the Japanese army has transferred all the troops that can be mobilized to the northern border of Korea to prevent our army from crossing the river, but there are no troops on the other coasts of Korea, I think the fastest and least casualty method is to order several troops to land from multiple locations, as long as we can block the news, we can catch the Japanese army by surprise. When the time comes, the Japanese army and the North Korean army deployed in the north of Korea will be attacked by our side on both sides, and they will definitely collapse, and there are only some patrols in other parts of Korea, and these people are okay to bully the common people, but they are scum in front of the army, and we can take over Korea as quickly as possible and capture the Japanese army! ”
Xiao Zhenlei thought for a moment, smoked a cigarette and got up: "Okay, just do as you say, launch an attack by mid-May at the latest, and end the Korean war before the summer comes!" ”
Chen Jizu stood up and said: "Yes, big president!" ”
Soon after Chen Jizu left, Lu Zhengxiang came to see Xiao Zhenlei again, this time he brought the treaties and agreements signed with Li Xiangxuan, Li Weizhong and Syngman Rhee and others, Xiao Zhenlei took the text of the treaty and looked at it separately, and said to Lu Zhengxiang after no problem: "Take it back and keep it well, and don't let these people leave for the time being, our army has determined to launch an attack on North Korea by mid-May at the latest, and then you can arrange for them to go with you, but don't tell them about this matter for the time being, so as not to leak military secrets, Arrange this time for them, give them good food and drink! ”
Lu Zhengxiang promised: "Got it, President!" ”
Xiao Zhenlei remembered something again, "Oh, by the way, you can't be unguarded against these people, we must let them be under the monitoring of our intelligence department at all times, you go to Wang Yaqiao and ask him to find a way to develop an internal line within them, especially to prevent them from contacting intelligence personnel from the United States or Western countries, including those countries in the Southeast Peninsula, this matter must not be careless!" ”
Lu Zhengxiang also knew the seriousness of the matter, and nodded very solemnly and agreed: "Don't worry, President, I will personally meet with Director Wang to talk!" (To be continued......)
