"The mood of the officers and men in the army is very high, and some grassroots troops have already begun to prepare for battle, and they have not waited for any orders. Some of the commanders of the revolutionary army and the Beiyang Army on the front line have also become uncharacteristically active today, and today alone I have received more than 2,000 copies of various operational plans, and the squad leader with the lowest official rank who has reported to the plan. ”

Jiang Baili pushed the pile of paper in front of him with different handwritings and battle plans in front of Yang Xiaolin: "Commander, I have read many copies, although some of the plans are similar, but I can assure you that there is absolutely no plagiarism from each other. ”

Yang Xiaolin smiled, and asked the grassroots commanders to report the operational plan was the method he adopted when he was in the northeast, and the purpose was not to say that the headquarters really couldn't think of a way, but to cultivate the habit of grassroots commanders to use their brains to think about war, and at the same time to pick up the gaps for a few people in the headquarters.

He has long been implemented in the whole army, but the effect is not ideal, those officers of the revolutionary army and the Beiyang army always think that it is enough to be brave on the battlefield, some let the soldiers write a few sentences for themselves, and some do simply copy other people's, not one or two, but they have never been able to put an end to it.

This problem is also very annoying to deal with, it is useless for you to report criticism in the whole army, after all, this is not a big mistake, and everyone in the team can understand that the effect of circulating criticism is not to deter those people, but to tell other people who are also very dissatisfied with writing plans and plans that they can plagiarize.

The reason for this is that those commanders have not yet changed their operational thinking, and they are not accustomed to thinking about how to fight a war on their own. Instead, he listened to Shangfeng's orders.

But today is different, there is no need for Commander Yang to say anything, but many people have taken the initiative to hand in the battle plan, which means that they now want to fight this battle! Through Yang Xiaolin's handling of Zhang Huaizhi's matter, they felt a kind of respect, and they were eager to prove something.

A commander who can change from the country needs him to fight a war to himself wants to fight a good war may not play much role in the war, but when the majority of the commanders of a unit are more active than before, the combat effectiveness of this unit will be improved!

Yang Xiaolin knew that the time was ripe to launch a counterattack against the Russians.

Of course, not everyone is supportive of Yang Xiaolin's approach. Again, that's the same sentence. China has a population of 40,000,000, and if all of these 40,000 people think about the same, it is a terrible thing.

The conflict of different ideas can propel society forward, and there is never a perfect solution in this world. It is even more unlikely that there will be a solution that will make 40,000,000 people feel perfect.

Mr. Sun Wen is the one who opposes letting Zhang Huaizhi go to the negotiations. This is not because Zhang Huaizhi robbed Mr. Sun of his job. It's that he really doesn't agree. In particular, Mr. Sun believes that the conditions put forward by Zhang Huaizhi during the negotiations are extremely irresponsible.

That night, Mr. Sun Wen and Chen Tianhua found Yang Xiaolin together, and at this time Commander Yang was ready to rest. But they dragged him out of the bedroom.

After conflict after conflict, the relationship between Mr. Sun Wen and Yang Xiaolin no longer seems to be able to find the feeling of the honeymoon period at the beginning, in Mr. Sun's eyes, Commander Yang is obviously no longer his revolutionary comrade, if it were not for the link between Chen Tianhua, it would be quite difficult for them to have a conversation.

"Commander Yang, I think I should express my attitude first, it is a wrong decision for you to let Zhang Huaizhi negotiate! I know you're ready to go on fighting, but that doesn't mean you can just give up that table. Have you ever thought that you might be able to get something you can't get on the battlefield? ”

Mr. Sun called himself Commander Yang, which was obviously a tone of discussion. Yang Xiaolin's heart really felt a little emotional. In fact, I respect Mr. Sun very much, and I also admire Sun Wen's persistence in fighting for China's democracy. Why can there be such a quarrel between himself and Mr. Sun?

Yang Xiaolin knew that maybe he helped Lao Yuan plot against them last time, which made these democracy fighters very unhappy, and completely made Mr. Sun no longer have any illusions about himself.

"What do you think we can get out of the negotiating table, sir?"

Yang Xiaolin's tone was still very polite.

"Peace!"

Sun Wen said these two words categorically: "We urgently need peaceful development now, and we must let the people live a stable life away from the war." The merit of a ruling government lies not in how many wars it has won, but in whether it can make the people live and work in peace and contentment! ”

Mr. Sun Wen's words made Yang Xiaolin's heart really tangled, because what Sun Wen said was very right. That's what he thought, too. China, which has just emerged from the Manchu Qing Dynasty, urgently needs a peaceful environment to improve people's livelihood, our economy is suffering from storms, our education is just starting, and our infrastructure needs to be carried out urgently.

When he was having dinner at Yuan Shikai's place in the evening, Lao Yuan also asked Yang Xiaolin why he had to fight the war.

Yang Xiaolin's answer to Yuan Shikai at that time was: "For peace." ”

He was struggling with this point, he and Sun Wen had the same purpose, but the means were very different, they were working in one direction but could not stand on the same runway and move forward hand in hand.

Mr. Sun believed that in order to achieve peace, it was necessary to be sincere at the negotiating table. However, Yang Xiaolin believed that in order to let the common people live and work in peace and contentment, and let China have a stable period of development, he must annihilate Kilingsky's troops and make the Russians incapable of invading China within ten years.

Make peace with war!

This kind of peace may come at the cost of corpses all over the field, and may let hundreds of thousands of soldiers shed their blood on the battlefield, maybe he is not as easy as Mr. Sun Wen's peace, but he thinks it is the safest!

Yang Xiaolin looked at Mr. Sun Wen: "Mr. Sun, I never pin my hopes on the few pieces of paper set at the negotiation table, I think that only by making the Russians feel pain, they will not dare to provoke us again, just like Japan now." ”

Sun Wen's eyes did not fluctuate in the slightest: "I know what you think!" But have you thought about it, you Yang Xiaolin don't want to be bullied by China. How could the Russians and Japan be willing? Japan is not coming now, but once they have absorbed enough nutrients in the South Seas and developed, they will definitely turn around and pounce on China, because you have defeated them, and you have brought them shame! ”

You are not solving Japan's troubles, you are just postponing a bigger war. The same is true for the Russians, the war will only deepen the hatred between the two countries, and will only keep China and Russia in a state of hostility forever. You fight out not peace, but permanent hatred. ”

"Then what can you do to guarantee that the Russians will not start a new war after I sign the agreement?!"

Yang Xiaolin's tone was obviously a little angry.

Mr. Sun Wen glanced at him, then stood up from his chair: "I'm not here to quarrel. I just wanted to put it there. I am very dissatisfied with your approach to this negotiation, and I will raise my objection to it in the Prime Minister's Cabinet. I'll take my leave. Also, even if I don't approve of your methods of warfare, trust me to do what I have to do. Other than that. Good luck with your best of luck. ”

After Mr. Sun finished speaking, he really left. He obviously didn't really think that he could convince Yang Xiaolin: "Xingtai." Do you want to go together? ”

Chen Tianhua sat there and shook his head: "You go first, I still have something I want to talk to Xiao Lin about." ”

Mr. Sun Wen nodded, picked up his hat and made a very ordinary farewell salute to Yang Xiaolin. Turned and left the room.

Looking at Mr. Sun's back slowly disappearing into the night, Yang Xiaolin's face smiled bitterly: "I really don't know what Lu Dao is doing and what he can make trouble with today." ”

Chen Tianhua also sighed: "You are basically two kinds of people, Yixian is sometimes too idealistic when he thinks about things, and you are a very utilitarian person." ”

"Am I utilitarian?"

"Hmm."

"Since when have I become a very utilitarian person in your heart? I think I'm still selfless, you look at my current home, there is nothing, it's a bit too much to describe it as a family with four walls, the word shabby should always be appropriate, right? ”

Chen Tianhua smiled: "Utilitarianism is just your attitude towards doing things, if you are really a person like Yuan Shikai, I won't sit here and talk to you now." Xiaolin, Sun Wen is already preparing to put forward a democratic resolution in the Prime Minister's Cabinet, we have mobilized a lot of people, this is a storm, I want to know what is your attitude on this matter? ”

Yang Xiaolin didn't answer immediately, if Sun Wen asked him, he would say that he planned to stay out of the matter and use the same set of rhetoric to prevaricate Yuan Shikai to prevaricate Sun Wen. But when Chen Tianhua asked him, he really hesitated, should he lie to this brother?

Before he could think about it, Chen Tianhua followed up and asked the second sentence: "What is Yang Du going to do?" Can you tell me? ”

Yang Xiaolin really couldn't tell any more lies: "Hey! I know I can't hide it from you. ”

Chen Tianhua said: "We have been together for seven years. ”

Yang Xiaolin nodded: "Yes, it's been seven years." You should know best what we are doing, Xingtai, since you know what you are doing, why do you want to go down with Sun Wen? Do you think you have a chance? ”

Chen Tianhua shook his head: "No, not at all." ”

"Then why are you so active in helping Sun Wen? Do you know that this makes it difficult for Yang Du to do? How many times has he thought about turning his gun directly at you! I can persuade Yang Du, but I have no way to influence Yuan Shikai, the current democratic situation is very good because Lao Yuan has not made a move, and sometimes he has to suffer a big loss if he makes the first move, Sun Wen is so idealized, whether it is dealing with politics or state affairs, he is like this! It's just that I don't know what you're doing this time with? ”

Yang Xiaolin's speech was very fast, and Chen Tianhua heard the sincere concern from these words, although it was a little reproachful, it made him feel very comfortable.

Sun Wen is indeed too ideal, he thinks that after mobilizing many people, he will raise his arms in the prime minister's cabinet, and then respond in groups, which can create a situation that Yuan Shikai has to follow.

"My decision comes from your last strangulation of democracy, Xiaolin, you and Yuan Shikai joined forces to make a small move, and let us make the whole plan go to waste. Do you know what I was thinking? ”

Yang Xiaolin was stunned for a moment: "You won't hold a grudge against me, right?" ”

Chen Tianhua laughed and said, "I have held a grudge for a few days. But then I realized that the reason why we lost so well was because democracy was not strong enough. Do you know how to make democracy strong? Just like you build a volunteer army, you can't train a volunteer army by training in the mountains, you must fight against the wind and waves, and you must grow in battle. ”

"The reason why Sun Wen took it for granted was because the Wuchang Uprising brought him unexpected fruits, and they were too smooth! Even if it was smooth, they didn't put in their lives at all, and all the results fell from the sky, which is also the reason why Sun Wen and they couldn't fight Yuan Shikai. ”

Yang Xiaolin really has no way to take Chen Tianhua, this brother is obviously ready to be a martyr of democracy, there is no need to say anything about the following words, Chen Tianhua hopes that democracy will withstand the wind and waves, but he absolutely does not want to see China's democracy destroyed by the wind and waves, so this time he must be at the forefront to protect Sun Wen.

He asked himself what measures Yang Du would take, probably to create a relatively safe environment for Mr. Sun Wen. Mr. Sun Wen is the banner of China's democracy, and as long as he does not fall, democracy will still exist.

Compared with Mr. Sun Wen, Chen Tianhua is a real fighter. He knew that there was an abyss in front of him, but he did not hesitate to charge for the victory that the latecomers could step on his corpse. (To be continued......)
