Chapter 544, Follow-up Arrangements.
The chairman of the committee is fifty-one years old this year, and his life course can be said to be very rich, to be honest, there are not many things that can surprise him now, even the loss of northern Hebei and Xuzhou, he just scolded two sentences of 'Niang Xipi', but this sudden telegram made him stand up in surprise.
The son on the side had not seen his father show such a gaffe since he was sensible, and now he couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw it at first glance, and hurriedly stepped forward to support the chairman and asked with concern: "Father, whose telegram is this, why did it make you lose your temper so much?" ”
There was no expression on the emaciated face of the chairman of the committee, but he handed the telegram in his hand to Jiang Gongzi. Childe took the message, swept his eyes, his body stiffened as if he had been struck by lightning, and his lips trembled and squirmed a few times before he could barely utter a voice that had been out of tune: "Father, this ..... Is this true? ”
The chairman of the committee asked with an expressionless face: "What do you say?" ”
Childe still couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and said tremblingly: "Father, if this telegram is really true, our party-state will be a meritorious one!" You'll go down in history! ”
After all, the chairman of the committee was calmer than his young son, and he calmed down before he said slowly: "This telegram is a note sent by the Japanese government, and it should not be faked, but Jianfeng, do you think that the Japanese are really so kind that they will give us such a great benefit for no reason?" ”
Jiang Gongzi hesitated for a moment, "Father, but the telegram is clear that the Japanese will gradually withdraw from Huaxia within a month, and the retreat will be completed within three months, and they have no reason to lie to us about this kind of thing." ”
After all, the chairman of the committee is the chairman of the committee, and the excitement has returned to normal, he said lightly: "Jianfeng, I have long taught you not to look at the surface of the problem, do you want to think that this matter is really done, we have become the biggest beneficiary, but have you thought about other people's feelings?" What will Wang Yizhe's Baath Party think? What will the Red Party in Shaanxi think? Yes, we are the central government, representing the whole country, and if the Japanese retreat, then it is only natural that we will take over the territory left by them, but have you thought about the feelings of others? Will Tang Juwu, who has a million heavy troops, immediately wave his army south and immediately grab land with us? Will the Red Party members immediately come out of the ravine and confront the party-state again? Have you thought about all of this? ”
Childe listened to his father's words with the telegram in his hand, but a thin layer of sweat could not help but appear on his forehead, and after listening to his father's analysis, he immediately imagined that if this was the case, I am afraid that the day of the Japanese retreat would be the resumption of the civil war. But he was reluctant to say: "But father, don't we, as the orthodox of the country, even have the right to regain the lost land?" ”
The chairman shook his head, "Of course not, we are naturally duty-bound as the central government to regain lost territory, but this matter still needs to pay attention to ways and means, and we must study it carefully. Speaking of this, there was a hint of irrepressible anger in the chairman's tone.
"But the Japanese came this time, but it was a conspiracy, and he dared to send such a clear telegram in such a grand manner, knowing that we knew that it was a bait, and would swallow it hard." Childe said with a bitter face.
"Alas, the country is extremely weak, although the central government is nominally unified, but the local forces and factions are criss-crossed, and the whole body is affected by one shot, and the Japanese will swagger out this telegram when they see this, and he just sees our internal problems!" The chairman shook his head helplessly,
Childe smiled bitterly, "Father, these problems can't be solved in a while, it's already late at night, you better go back and rest!" ”
Childe slowly walked to the lighted room not far away, leaving only a sigh.......
On this ordinary night, countless people tossed and turned insomnia because of an unusual message.
At the Jinan Headquarters, Jiang Qiang, who was already asleep, was also urgently woken up by his personal guard Tie Niu and rushed to the theater headquarters overnight, and Jiang Baili, Chen Zhengnian, and senior generals and principal government officials in Shandong also rushed to the conference room for a meeting.
At this time, the conference room was full of smoke, and several large smoking guns, including Jiang Qiang, were spewing clouds and spitting fog, making the conference room at the end of the room smoky. But now no one cares about this, and everyone frowns at the new problem.
Chen Zhengnian pressed the cigarette butt in front of the ashtray in his hand and said angrily, "The Japanese are really sinister, and they don't forget to dig a pit for us before leaving." ”
Jiang Baili said lightly: "Of course, if the Japanese don't set up some obstacles for us, they won't be Japanese." I saw this very clearly when I was studying in Japan. ”
Jiang Qiang joked beside him: "Since Duke Ning is so disgusted with the Japanese, why can't he hang the sword given by the Japanese emperor in the toilet for people to admire?"
"Hahaha......" Hearing Jiang Qiang joke like this, everyone who knew Jiang Baili's study experience in Japan laughed.
When Jiang Baili was studying at the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School, there were more than 300 Japanese graduates of the Ninth Infantry Department at that time, four Chinese students, and several students from Thailand and other countries. The Japanese non-commissioned officers generally felt unbearable on face, and who knew that the second place was announced next, and it was still the Chinese people, and this second place was Cai Yi, a merry general who later raised troops from Yunnan to oppose Yuan. The commotion caused by this was even worse. So before announcing the third place, the Japanese side checked it first - uh, unfortunately, this time the result is still Chinese! His name is Zhang Xiaohuai. The graduation officer of the Japanese non-commissioned officer school is Prince Fushiminomiya, and he feels that he can't explain to the emperor in panic, so he temporarily changed a Japanese student from the back to the third, thinking that the top four Japanese are only half embarrassed, and a Japanese student is added as the fourth, Zhang Xiaohuai got the fifth, who are the two Japanese who have been added? A man named Sadao Araki, a later Japanese army general, land minister, a Class A war criminal, and a man named Mazaki Shizaburo, later governor of Taiwan, army general, and the mastermind behind the 226 incident... In addition, the Japanese graduates in this issue include the following names - Koiso Kunia, Honjo Shigeru, Matsui Ishone, Abe Nobuyuki.... It can be called a generation of elites of the Japanese Army, all of whom were defeated by Jiang Baili Cai Yi, and since then, the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School has stipulated that Chinese students must teach separately from Japanese students, so as to avoid the recurrence of the same scene.
Jiang Baili received such an honor from the Japanese, and the Japanese really hoped that he would say two good things about Japan, but who knew that General Baili's evaluation was to the effect that Huaxia learned two most incorrigible things from Japan, one is education, and the other is the army..... Then he drifted to Germany, and continued to inspect the military as the commander of the Seventh Army of the German Wehrmacht.
Now Jiang Qiang shook out Jiang Baili's glorious deeds back then, which made the atmosphere in the conference room a lot easier.
After everyone finished laughing, Jiang Qiang said: "This time Japan is clearly using Yang, but I don't think we have to worry, the North China Dispatch Army is next door to us, and we didn't have time to take care of them some time ago, but now that the Japanese government has sent such a telegram, we can't show weakness, tomorrow we will send a telegram to the central government to support the Nanjing government to receive the lost territory, but we must personally send troops to recover the two places, that is, with Hebei." As for other places, they are too far away from us, and we can't reach them at the moment, and everything will have to wait until the National Congress in September, in short, our Wang Yizhe's Baath Party does not want to fight a civil war, but it must also make its voice heard in the central government! ”
After Jiang Qiang finished speaking, everyone was quietly thinking about Jiang Qiang's proposal, and Zhuang Tao, the governor of Shandong Province, who had been sitting beside Chen Zhengnian for a long time, said: "Jiang Qiang, there is no problem in recovering Hebei, after all, our occupation of Hebei has become an established fact, but after all, it is the territory of the national government, will our reckless and forcible occupation cause unnecessary misunderstanding and friction?" ”
Some people say that there are no absolute secrets in this world, and some people say that some secrets will be lost in the long river of history, but no matter which statement is correct, it will never include this telegram, and the Japanese telegram was transmitted all over the world through the radio waves in three days.
"I can't believe it, do the Japanese think that the war is playing at home?" This is reported by the Washington Post.
"The Japanese can't hold it anymore! The Japanese are retreating! We've won! This is a report from Huaxia Ta Kung Pao.
"God testifies that the Japanese retreated to his homeland, so who will his next target be?" This was reported by the Berlin News in Germany.
Countless people are speculating, and at the same time, there are countless people who are watching the dynamics in China, without the common enemy of Japan, will a new round of civil war break out in China? What about the attitude of the Baath Party and the Red Party? The calculation of the Japanese is that it is a personal can see that with the retreat of the Japanese forces in the next three months, who will replace the vacuum forces they left behind? It's an answer that even God can't answer.
Just when people were thinking about it, the Heilongjiang Renaissance Party was the first to make a public statement, and Wang Yizhe's speech was published on the statement. In the statement, Wang Yizhe highly praised the contributions made by the chairman of the committee in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and at the same time, Wang Yizhe also pointed out that it is not right for the current newspaper Liu Shang to use radical words to insult and ridicule the chairman of the committee, and at the same time, he also believes that even if the chairman of the committee has a thousand mistakes, he should not be vilified and dwarfed, nor should he be completely denied; although the chairman has his faults, he is still the leader of the nation, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the chairman of the committee is a great man in the modern history of China. Here, Wang Yizhe, on behalf of the 800,000 members of the Baath Party, supports the central government's recovery of the occupied areas left behind by the Japanese leaving: "The central government, as the orthodoxy of China, has the right and obligation to recover the lost territory, although the Japanese have decided to evacuate the mainland of China, but they have not said a word about Taiwan and other places, and the central government must first issue a statement that it will never give up these areas, even if it uses force, it will not hesitate to fight to the death in order to recover the lost territory of China!" The expected rebuke and rift did not happen, "Heilongjiang sang praises for the Chongqing government and supported the government to recover these lost territories." At the same time, Wang Yizhe's statement at the end of his statement that the Baath Party was ready to formally enter the political arena at the National Congress in September also gave people a clear signal that the rules of the game in China are about to change, and those who want to take power will have to go to canvass votes.
Judging from the current form of China, as long as the Congress Party and the Ba'ath Party, which have the greatest military strength, do not mess up, "the rest of the people will not be in chaos, after all, most of the guns are in the hands of others, and they will not move."
The Heilongjiang government's two statements shattered the eyes of a place, "and at the same time, it also makes people realize that it seems that the Baath Party is really going to march into the political arena."
In a cave in northern Shaanxi, the Red Party also held an ad hoc high-level meeting, at which the top leaders of the Social Workers Party also expressed their views on the dizzying situation at present. At the meeting, they agreed that the current situation in which the Baath Party had moved into the Central Committee showed that "the situation in which the Congress Party was dominant has been completely broken by the emergence of the Baath Party, and it is foreseeable that the National Convention in September will undergo a shocking change, and the Social Workers Party should take advantage of this opportunity to enter the political arena."
In the words of the leader and member of the Social Workers' Party, it is like the era of the Three Kingdoms: "The Congress Party is the Qiang Wei, and the Renaissance Party and the Red Party are Shu and Wu, and now the Shu and Wu sides should also take this opportunity to make their voices heard in the political arena."
With the official announcement of the Baath Party and the Red Party to participate in the National Congress, the forum in China has become unprecedentedly lively.
Elections are a very new topic in China, since ancient times, China has been a power from the barrel of a gun, whoever has a hard fist will be the boss, the people only have the share of the rule, when will it be the people's turn to elect their own government?
At first, the common people didn't believe in these things, and thought that it was a foolish thing that was made by some guy, but after word of mouth, they really understood, and it turned out that this was true, and after all the Japanese were evacuated, the whole country would hold a national congress for elections, which was the first time in the world.
At the same time, the news that the Japanese government announced that it would withdraw its troops from China also caused strong repercussions within Japan. Of the two Japanese dispatch forces in China, the North China Dispatch Army, headed by Sugiyama Moto, expressed support and understanding for the orders of the Emperor and the base camp, but the Central China Dispatch Army aroused strong resentment among some generals and officers, who believed that the move of the base camp was a conspiracy of those chaebols and capitulation factions in China. The consequences of the withdrawal of Japanese troops from China will be unimaginable, and it will mean that Japan's efforts for nearly half a century will be reduced to nothing. In order to appease these generals and officers, the commander of the Central China Dispatch Army, Jiong Junliu, had to go back and forth to various units to repeatedly appease the generals and officers.
Wuhan Central China Dispatch Army Headquarters
Tian Junliu was sitting in his office, slowly savoring the tea ceremony of his confidential secretary Kazuko Ikeda, and in front of him were sitting upright several division commanders, including the sixth, ninth, and tenth division commanders.
Kazuko Ikeda, dressed in a kimono, is carrying a teapot to pour tea for several generals next to him, just like an ancient Chinese man, morbidly obsessed with the "three-inch golden lotus." Similarly, Japanese people are generally obsessed with women's necks and backs. The women's kimonos are particularly favored and well-cut in these two places, and we are intoxicated by the beautiful appearance of the short black hair against the backdrop of the light red kimono. Seeing that Gu Shoufu and Yoshizumi Ryosuke and other division commanders swallowed saliva, but this woman was already the woman of His Excellency the Commander, and they could only swallow saliva secretly in their hearts.
Under the service of Kazuko Ikeda, Yoonroku greeted him warmly, "Come, all of you, let's taste Kazuko Ikeda's tea art and see if it suits your taste." ”。
Shouichi Terauchi poured the tea into his mouth in one gulp, although he couldn't drink anything, but he still praised it loudly for face: "Miss Kazuko's tea art is really top-notch, although I am a rough person, but just looking at Miss Kazuko's movements already feels very pleasing to the eye......"
Everyone laughed loudly, who said that this guy is a rough man, and when people clap their ass, they are also top-notch.
After drinking a few cups, Jiong Junliu put down the teacup and said to everyone with a smile: "Gentlemen, the base camp has officially issued an order, let us officially withdraw from China within three months, what do you think of this decision of the base camp?" ”。
As soon as the question came out, everyone restrained their smiles, and Ryosuke Yoshizumi said sullenly, "What else can we do, what else can we do what the base camp says." ”
"Yoshizumi-kun, your thinking is not right...... Jiong Junliu said with a straight face: "Due to the emergence of the variable of the Heilongjiang government, our Kwantung Army has existed in name only, and without the material support of Manchuria, we will not be able to fight in China, and this strategy of the base camp is right, even if we barely support it, we can only support it for about a year at most." Wouldn't it be better to attack in a different direction and seize the rich resources of Nanyang than to fight with the people of China here? ”。
Terauchi Shou said indignantly: "But did hundreds of thousands of our imperial soldiers die in vain? You know, once we have launched the branch, it will not be so easy to come in next time. ”。
Tian Junliu shook his head, "Otherwise, as long as the empire still occupies Taiwan, we still have a chance to counterattack China, and all we lack now is resources...... "Speaking of this, Jiong Junliu looked at Terauchi Shou: "Terauchi-kun, I know that you are a brave soldier, but now is an extraordinary period, I hope you can restrain the military discipline of the troops, and not arouse the hostility of the local people to the imperial army." …”
Shouichi Terauchi knew that Tian Junliu was euphemistically reminding himself that he wanted to rape several local women because he robbed them a few days ago, but because they didn't hack them to death.
Shouichi Terauchi lowered his head a little ashamedly, bowed down and said, "Haiyi, I have come to make trouble for His Excellency the Commander. …”
"Yes! The leader of the six leaders said: "Gentlemen, our task now is to maintain local law and order, and we must not let the matter of military discipline recur. Do you understand? ”。
"Hello! Everyone bowed in unison.
Jiong Junliu nodded with satisfaction, he knew that although there were so many division commanders in the Central China Dispatch Army, they were led by these few in front of him, as long as the ideological work of these division commanders was completed, there would be no major problems.
When the crowd dispersed, a layer of sweat had already appeared on Yong Junliu's forehead, and Tian Junliu was shot through his lungs during the Battle of Jiguanshan in the early Russo-Japanese War. Later, although he survived after being rescued, he also left some problems in his lungs and some problems with his respiratory system. Kazuko Ikeda gently took off the discipline on his military uniform for Yong Shunroku and buttoned it to make him comfortable.
Tian Junliu let Kazuko Ikeda untie his own discipline buckle while pondering the direction of Japan in the future, in Jiong Junliu's thoughts at this time, although Japan temporarily evacuated China, but as long as the civil war broke out in China, Japan still had a chance to come back in the future.
However, at this time, Tian Junliu never imagined that in the future, instead of Japan being able to return to China, it would allow the Chinese army to invade the Japanese mainland, which would bring a devastating blow to Japan.
As a sergeant, Zhao Laogen has a monthly military salary of 500 yuan, which can only be said to be an ordinary level in an ordinary big city, but Zhao Laogen is very satisfied. In Zhao Laogen's view, a peasant who was originally illiterate was able to be promoted to sergeant with his own skills in less than two years after joining the Heilongjiang army, and he could also receive another large salary every month, which was a good thing that he could never dream of before. So he was very satisfied, the only regret was that I don't know which turtle son did the ghost, and got him from the 10th Infantry Division to this expensive place to gnaw sand, although there is basically no war here, but it also means that his path to the rise is cut off.
Today is the day of Zhao Laogen's platoon patrol, early in the morning Zhao Laogen gathered the team, seeing that more than 30 brothers in front of him had arrived, Zhao Laogen put the Suomi in his hand to hang on his back, with a flick of his fingers, a cigarette butt crossed an arc towards the newborn morning sun and landed not far away, after a long puff of smoke, shouted, "Brothers, start working!" ”
After speaking, Zhao Laogen took the lead and walked to the east, followed by a long group of heavily armed soldiers. The crowd began to move toward the west.
The team walked for a while, and Sergeant Zhang Wuqiang, the third squad leader, trotted all the way up and walked side by side with Zhao Laogen, and said with a smile: "Platoon leader, why has our patrol suddenly increased in the past two days?" Normally, we would patrol for two hours, meaning "Why do you have to walk all day today?" ”
", don't call me platoon commander! Lao Tzu is the acting platoon leader, understand? Zhao Laogen said angrily: "Have you ever seen a sergeant as a platoon commander?" Lao Tzu was replaced, and when the new platoon commander arrived, Lao Tzu had to go back to be the original squad leader. ”
Zhang Wuqiang shrunk his neck and muttered, "Who told you not to study well, I saw you sleeping when I took cultural classes on weekdays." ”
"What did you kid say?" Zhao Laogen glared at Zhang Wuqiang and scolded: "If Lao Tzu had been educated, he would have been a company commander a long time ago."
It will not take two years to be the current platoon commander, and he is still temporarily acting. Tell you, Lao Tzu got up this morning to withdraw his urine, but it is very yellow, you don't provoke Lao Tzu. ”
Seeing Zhang Wuqiang bowing his head and not saying a word, looking aggrieved, Zhao Laogen couldn't help but take out a cigarette angrily and funny, handed it to Zhang Wuqiang, lit it and said: "Look at your boy's bear-like" Okay, Lao Tzu will talk to you. Didn't you listen to it on the radio two days ago? General Wang Yizhe is going to attack that side, so we have to strengthen our vigilance and guard against it, "so as not to let the rabbit cub on the other side attack us." ”
"Oh! I see! Zhang Wuqiang suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly took two steps forward and walked side by side with Zhao Laogen: "Head, but there is no one on the opposite side of us, and the nearest outpost from us is also thirty miles away." It's not that I look down on them, and I don't dare to take the initiative to touch us if I dare to pick them up! ”
