Chapter 214: Eight Faces of the Enemy (Thirteen) Chapter Rapid Update Begins, and the update word count is 3554

“…… In short, the Navy is in a hurry to take revenge, and the Army is still dreaming"

The report on the regular meeting of the Dangrì base camp lasted only five minutes, and Gu Yingyang concluded succinctly.

"What about the opinion of the General Staff?"

Liu Qianhua asked, while taking the "medicine" cup from the trainee female officer Zhang Luying, frowned and drank two sips, and was about to put it on the table, but was blocked by the childish Zhang Luying stretched out his hand.

"Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Chen said that this 'medicine' must be drunk while it is hot."

Liu Qianhua continued to frown: "This 'medicine' is too bitter, I will drink it slowly, it is so hot, it is not so fast to cool." ”

Zhang Luying clasped his hands on his chest and looked resolute: "No, Imperial Doctor Chen has explained, I have to stare at the emperor and drink this 'medicine'." ”

Gu Yingyang smiled on the side: "Isn't this the young lady of Zhang Zhigao's family, I came to the palace for internship again this summer?" At a young age, his temper is quite big. ”

Zhang Luying pouted dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean by being young, I'm going to middle school next month - Your Majesty, don't look around, drink the 'medicine'." ”

Liu Qianhua looked at Zhang Luying, then glanced at Gu Yingyang, and finally raised the 'medicine' cup, closed her eyes and drank it all.

"That's okay, right?"

Zhang Luying took the 'medicine' cup with a smile: "That's how you behave-okay, the next official will retire first." ”

Seeing Zhang Luying's petite back gradually blur in the dim light, Pan Guochen smiled bitterly: "Why is this little girl's tone so similar to Lady Ye." ”

Liu Qianhua sighed helplessly, stretched out her hand to support her forehead and said: "Don't mention it, it's the mirror that is adjusted, if she is not there, it will be all up to this child to take care of me, I really don't understand what she thinks - don't worry about this for now, old Gu." Tell me about the attitude of your General Staff. ”

Gu Yingyang just sighed: "What attitude can we have?" All the plans of the General Staff Department must proceed from the maintenance of the general strategy, which is to advance from the west to the east and defend the east, so of course we must continue to accompany the army in its dreams. ”

Liu Qianhua sneered: "Then you think, don't let the army dream." Will the Navy get revenge? ”

Gu Yingyang smiled bitterly: "It's hard to say, it's one thing for the army to agree or not, and it's another thing for the navy to expect that the fleet decisive battle can be fought or not, and it really wants to scare Australia's Anglo-American combined fleet away." First, the army will inevitably dream of Australia, and second, it is difficult to guarantee that the Anglo-American combined fleet that has run away will not be transferred to the Indian Ocean. ”

Pan Guochen finally withdrew his strange gaze from the endless night. At this time, he couldn't help but "interject" and said: "Is it possible that the recent positive actions of Britain and the United States in Australia are precisely to attract the attention of the empire and induce the empire to open up a new battlefield here." To alleviate the pressure on the Entente in the general direction of the Indian Ocean? At the same time, it was also the restoration of the overall maritime superiority of the Entente powers. Gaining valuable time? ”

Gu Yingyang glanced at him, spread his hands and said: "It doesn't matter if the other party has the meaning of 'inviting you into the urn', the situation is really going to develop to that point, but it won't be like today, sacrificing one or two warships can 'break the tail to survive' - if you want to save your life, you must at least remove an arm or thigh or something." ”

"Then we can't afford not to be fooled?" Pan Guochen was puzzled.

"I can't." Gu Yingyang continued to smile bitterly.

"One is that public opinion is unreasonable: it is difficult for the public to understand complex strategies. The logic of war has long been rooted in our national education, and the war itself has become a fanatical belief in religion...... In the final analysis, the more we do not allow the navy to take revenge, the more we are blaspheming the faith of the masses and depriving them of the jīng divine narcotics they need to continue to endure, until the general will to war of the country is shaken. ”

"Second, it is militarily unacceptable: If the situation in Australia is allowed to develop, if Britain and the United States taste enough sweetness and make up their minds to use Australia as the main counteroffensive base in the Pacific, the Hawaiian fortress that our army has painstakingly managed will become an ornament, not only will the role of the strategic magnet plummet, but the large amount of manpower and material resources invested in Hawaii so far will also lose its due value, and the empire will not be able to invest several times or more than ten times the resources on a broader front to build an island defense line that is more difficult to defend."

This time it was Pan Guochen's turn to smile bitterly: "According to this, we can't help but let the army dream." If the army is "forced" to stop here, whether it is public opinion or the military, it is also unacceptable, right? ”

Gu Yingyang spread his hands and looked helpless: "No way, don't cry if you don't see the coffin, this is the fate of militarism, since the empire has embarked on this road, it will be difficult to turn back." ”

"In that case, what is the value of our efforts over the past year?"

Pan Guochen was slightly excited.

Without waiting for Gu Yingyang to take over, Liu Qianhua asked coldly: "Pan Guochen, do you think that if you defeat Liu Bailiang and them, we will win?" Our opponent is not the old forces in the clique, but the minds of 500 million people. If we want to change the thinking of the people, we must first unify the thinking of our group, after all, the thinking of the masses will become what it is now, isn't it all because of the guidance of the group? ”

Without waiting for Pan Guochen to reply, Gu Yingyang sneered, shook his head again and again, and said: "It's easy to ignite a fire, but it's difficult to extinguish a fire, and the matter has come to this point, I'm afraid the group has no strength to extinguish this fire - not to mention that the amount of water poured into the fire may be insignificant, just how much oil is mixed in this water, I'm afraid that the emperor is not sure in his heart." ”

Pan Guochen gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and said indignantly: "Then what should we do? Just watch the military department do whatever it wants, until it drags the empire down and falls into civil strife like Russia? ”

Gu Yingyang paced with his back hand, groaned for a long time, and finally spit out eight words: "Follow the trend and wait for the momentum." ”

Pan Guochen sneered in disappointment and said, "Isn't this just letting us stand by and watch?" It's all taking advantage of the trend, where is the momentum to wait? ”

Gu Yingyang didn't look at him, and looked up at the starry sky with his back hand: "The emperor should understand what I mean." ”

Liu Qianhua's expression was resolute: "Even if I understand, I can't give up without trying, this is not only related to the national fortunes of the empire, but also related to the lives of millions of loyal and brave citizens - if my father is still here, he will definitely do it." ”

"Even if the first emperor is still there, I'm afraid it won't help, this is no longer something that can be recovered by manpower. The emperor insisted on going against the sky, in the wrong direction, and the harder he tried, the closer he got to danger, until the moth put out the fire and killed himself. ”

There was no emotion in Gu Yingyang's words, but Pan Guochen was about to burst: "Gu Yingyang, you are too much!" Is our strength so weak? The emperor just wanted to unify the power of the clique and guide the people's thinking in the right direction, but could not even do this? ”

In the face of Pan Guochen's indignation, Gu Yingyang didn't care, and continued to say calmly: "It can't be done, because whether it is the emperor or the group, the strength comes from the people, and if the people go crazy, the rulers who are unwilling to cooperate will lose their strength until they are replaced by people who are willing to cooperate." ”

Pan Guochen clenched his fists in front of his chest, and there was no lack of sympathy in his angry eyes: "But the people are not all crazy, fanatical militarists are only a minority, and the vast number of peasants and small producers have borne the price of the war, and their hearts are eager to stop the war and return to normal life!" ”

"The people who cannot speak out and cannot resist are not citizens, they are livestock, they are worker ants, they are war materials that can be consumed at any time. It doesn't matter if you don't like to hear it, but the reality is like this, everyone is equal sounds beautiful, but no matter what era, people are born unequal, if you want to change your fate, you have to fight for it, and sometimes you have to pay a heavy price, and you may not be able to see the results, but it is always more reliable than praying to the immortal emperor - how, how long do you plan to rely on the emperor? ”

After Gu Yingyang finished speaking, he gave Pan Guochen a provocative smile.

Pan Guochen's shoulders trembled involuntarily, the muscles on his face twitched a few times, and he suddenly let out the most terrible roar: "I don't want to rely on anyone!" I'll walk my own way, you wait and see! ”

Before he finished speaking, Pan Guochen turned around and ran away, his leather boots inlaid with iron palms clangling on the stone path in the middle of the night......

……

ps: Pan Guochen's shoulders trembled involuntarily, the muscles on his face twitched a few times, and he suddenly let out the most angry roar: "I don't want to go on anyone!" I'll pick my own bed partner, you guys wait and see! ”
