When British and Portuguese officials found Sun Tao, Liu was constantly deployed in Shanghai. He has already received accurate news that the Japanese army entering India is advancing at a speed of nearly 200 kilometers a day, looting all trucks and other machinery, learning the rapid raid of the advance army, constantly breaking through the British defense line that is still gathering, so that the slow-moving British army is losing and retreating, and the artillery and trucks sent up make the Japanese advance faster and faster, and the Japanese army marching towards Burma here is almost to the Yunnan border, and in two days at most, it can be organized with the British army, and the patchwork army will meet near the border of Burma, Laos and Vietnam, at present, the Japanese army is attacking Savage Mountain.

The whole country rejoiced when the slow-moving army learned that the advance army had won another battle and had completely annihilated the Japanese troops attacking Hong Kong and Macao. Although it was already under the jurisdiction of the British and Portuguese, everyone loved to know that it was Chinese land.

Because of this, the already high craze for joining the army has become even more turbulent, and the number of recruits is multiplying at a geometric rate. If the army hadn't made the first move, I'm afraid the road would have really been blocked.

The army picks up speed and goes straight to Shanghai along the way, and the speed will increase when it arrives in Shanghai. The road from Hangzhou to Guangzhou is already very wide and smooth, and the army can travel three or four hundred kilometers a day when it moves.

The recruits were still training as they went, practicing basic queues, practicing passwords that they thought were useless.

These are the basis for the growth of a unit, and they are not even qualified to hold guns until they can adapt to and carry out orders.

Where is Shanghai, after Liu Yucheng finished arranging, he couldn't help but let out a long breath.

Zhao Liqiang had been with her, and seeing that Mr. seemed to be worried, he poured tea and asked, "Sir, are there too many recruits?" ”

Liu Yucheng took the teacup and took a sip and said, "No. There are only 700,000 recruits now, and there are not many more than 700,000, and I wonder how I can recruit more people. ”

“70…… ......"

Zhao Liqiang's hand trembled, and the tea almost said outside the cup.

Liu Yucheng glanced at him and said with a smile: "If you don't mess up and don't lose the demeanor of a general, 700,000 will scare you?" ”

"No, sir. I was frightened by the speed. It's only been a few days! ”

After Zhao Liqiang poured the tea, he put down the teapot and said.

Liu Yucheng smiled. He put down his teacup and said, "These are 25-16 years old who are eligible to be soldiers, and nearly half a million people who are not suitable for being soldiers have also entered the marching ranks." ”

"So many ......"

Zhao Liqiang was taken aback.

Liu Chengcheng slowly restrained his smile and said: "Hong Kong, Macau, these two places have been in this war, and it will take two years to recover their vitality, and the population has dropped by more than half, although the Japanese army has not massacre a large number of people. But there are countless civilians who have died, and we need a large number of people to replenish it, and we need to build military ports, docks, and factories. ”

Build a dock?

Zhao Liqiang pondered for a moment and asked, "Is the captain going to completely occupy there?" ”

"Occupation?"

Liu Yucheng glanced at Zhao Liqiang and said, "What is occupation?" That's our land, and we're just going to get the stewardship back. ”

"That's right! That's our land! ”

Zhao Liqiang's eyes flashed, and then he said, "Sir." The captain has already built his headquarters in Pontianak, when will he take it there? ”

"Pontianak?" Liu Yucheng shook his head and said, "The captain doesn't plan to do so for the time being. There once there is a war. It will affect the situation in Europe, and besides, the captain does not plan to attack those places for the time being, we do not have a navy. ”

Zhao Liqiang straightened up, and his eyes immediately lit up: "Sir, then you still have to fight." Tell me, does the captain have an idea? ”

Liu Yucheng glanced at him again and scolded with a smile: "Look at you, you can be regarded as calm six of you, otherwise the captain would not hand over Shanghai to you, why are you still so hairy." ”

Zhao Liqiang laughed and said, "Sir." It's very tiring to play with your brain in front of those big noses every day, isn't this just with you? ”

Liu Chengcheng looked at Zhao Liqiang, who was taking out a junior posture, and couldn't help but smile: "You, you are all commanders, with an army of more than 100,000 in your hands, and you are still childish." Forget it, if I don't tell you, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep tonight. ”

After taking a sip of tea, he didn't look forward again, and Zhao Liqiang, who listened attentively, said to himself: "The captain is unwilling to use force to invade other countries, thinking that this is irresponsible to the soldiers, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't forget the pain that the powers have inflicted on us." ”

"Let's not talk about Japan, you look at Siberia, Central Asia, these are the original Chinese land, the captain is not soft in the fight, especially the Japanese, he will not hesitate to exterminate the clan."

"You went to school, I think you should know the Luo family of Lanfang Guoluo, right?"

Zhao Liqiang's expression slowly became serious, and when he saw the question, he opened his mouth and replied: "Zhilu Dao, the Chinese who established the Lanfang Kingdom in Borneo. ”

"Yes. Yes, it is the founder of Lan Fangguo. ”

Liu Yucheng slowly narrowed his eyes, "That's hundreds of thousands of people!" It was not an animal, it was killed by the East India Company, that is, the Dutch and the local natives, and not many women and children escaped. ”

"How could this captain forget? He has long thought about the shame of the past, but he has no chance, and when he has the opportunity, he will be as merciless as he did to the Soviet Russia, the creator of the Hailan Pao tragedy and the Jiangdong 64tun tragedy. But he won't start a war first, so let's create this opportunity for him! ”

"We?"

Zhao Liqiang was a little confused.

He had attended the New Year's party, and had attended a secret meeting of Dong Ku when he was drunk, and he knew that the captain was unwilling to cause unprovoked killing, but he did not have those hatreds in his heart. But how do they create this opportunity?

Seeing that Zhao Liqiang was puzzled, Liu Chengcheng smiled.

"Look at it, you are still a general of the unified army, and it is not easy to create an opportunity?"

Zhao Liqiang didn't even think about it, and then said: "Sir, do you want to create an opportunity for the Dutch to do it?" It's not difficult, just blow up a few merchant ships and incite the local Chinese to create trouble, and there is no excuse yet? ”

Liu Yucheng nodded and said, "These old-fashioned methods are applicable at any time, don't the great powers do this?" But we have a better way, and we can even save the trouble of creating trouble. ”

"Even the trouble is saved?"

Zhao Liqiang frowned, he really didn't know what the method of Lu Dao Liu was talking about.

Liu Yucheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Think about it slowly, this will not be the time to uncover the mystery, we will first focus on restoring the reconstruction and expansion of Hong Kong, and open up the training base." ”

"Training base?"

Zhao Liqiang paused, and he understood in an instant.

Hong Kong and Macau will certainly not be returned to Britain and Portugal, where the Chinese government still admits cession, so it will not come forward to manage there, and it is an excellent way to use it as a training base, which can accommodate enough people and allow them to participate in the construction of the training.

"Great idea!"

Zhao Liqiang clapped his hands and praised.

"It must be built as soon as possible, and when the defense is completed, the British warships will be useless!"

Liu programmed his eyes narrow, and his gaze gradually deepened.

After Sun Tao received the order of Liu Chengcheng, he ordered the army to bypass Guangzhou directly, rush to the front line of Maoming and Nanning, go straight to Kunming, and stationed in several locations to do adaptation training for jungle warfare, and be ready to attack at any time, so that the nearby recruits rushed to Macao and Hong Kong, where they completed the recruit training.

At this time, the British political axe had not yet realized that they could not go back to Hong Kong, and thought that the advance army would not participate in the previous treaties as they did with the Shanghai Concession.

After Ambassador Henry received the report that the officials who went to inquire about Sun Tao's contact, he felt relieved. He believed that the advance force would not provoke the powerful British, and naturally would not take a seat on the matter in Hong Kong. However, he knew that Dong Ku was a greedy businessman, and he was ready to give Dong Ku some sweetness. He did not want his country to come into conflict with the advance army, and their army was not necessarily a match for the advance army.

Not to mention the disparity in combat effectiveness, just to say that the advance army received new weapons funding from weapons companies, and that huge funds that seemed to have no bottom, he had no confidence in letting the empire fight the advance army. What's more, at this time, Germany in Europe already has a tendency to be unable to suppress, and it does not want the Far East and even the South Seas to cause riots and affect the European battlefield.

As for the advance army's statement that it was going to destroy the Japanese troops in India, he believed that the country would not agree, and he would not agree. That's a big army, not a small place like Hong Kong, how can you withdraw if you go?

He knew there that Dong Ku had already had the idea of taking back Hong Kong and Macao, and he had been thinking about the concession for a long time, and if he hadn't been afraid that his strength was still weak, he would have torn his face with the concession and Hong Kong and Macao. His lack of involvement in domestic affairs does not mean that he can let go of these powers, and as long as he has the opportunity, he will unceremoniously return the shame of the great powers.

When Chiang learned that Hong Kong had been recaptured by the advance army, he did not feel excited or excited, but he knew one thing that the advance army was afraid that it would conflict with the British.

With his understanding of the advance army, how could he easily withdraw his troops when he entered Hong Kong and Macao? The advance army is not as easy to talk as it seems, and they may not rest if they don't get some benefits.

He needed time to train and adapt to the new weapon, and those American tactical instructors told him that they wouldn't be able to go into battle without a year. Therefore, he must settle down and wait for the advance army to cross the border.

He thought about it for a long time, and finally ordered: "Order, let the troops continue to be restrained along the Guangzhou line, do not interfere with any movement of the advance army, as for him to recruit soldiers and technicians, let him recruit if he has money, don't restrict!" ”

He also had no choice, he couldn't clash with the advance army, as for those people, just go if they want, he really didn't believe it, the advance army's financial resources could be so strong? The equipment of those troops alone is not something that can be done by a hundred oceans or two hundred oceans, that is an astronomical amount. (To be continued......)
