Umezu Mijiro nodded, Iimura is right, the current situation in Japan is very bad, if the independent division makes some efforts, China and their Japanese army have a decisive battle, I am afraid that both sides will lose, "Therefore, the empire needs time buffer, and this buffer time depends on how long we can mediate."
"Coupled with the previous alliance with Germany, the empire can only continue to advance without being defeated if it grabs more resources, otherwise," Iimura was helpless, why did the situation change so hard "The mediation has to go on."
Umezu Mijiro sighed, "If the empire wants the interests of Southeast Asia, it is necessary to wait until Germany is completely in conflict with Britain and France, and now, although several countries have declared war, there is no large-scale conflict, so we have to wait."
In China, the empire has already acquired most of the rich provinces, and if it can hold on, there is no need to fight the Chinese army at all. ” "But, the independent division is here, if there is no independent division, everything will be much easier."
Iimura said, "Since the emergence of the independent division, the Imperial Army has suffered many defeats, and no matter whether it is His Majesty the Emperor or several generals or commanders of the front army, they have all designed to deal with Zhou Weiguo privately, but they have not succeeded. ” "I know this, for example, His Majesty the Emperor is willing to recommend Zhou Weiguo as the president of China, so that the current leaders of China are suspicious of the independent division, and the people of China are still very wise in internal fighting."
"Didn't they all succeed, and if you carefully study the ancient history of China, you will find that China is a very peculiar country.
When there is pressure on the outside, no matter how there is a contradiction on the inside, we will unite together.
And once the external pressure is reduced or no longer a threat, then their internal contradictions will intensify.
The previous Kuomintang army fought the communist army is a good proof of this. ” "That being said, it doesn't have any impact on the Independent Division, unless you can let everyone in China attack the Independent Division, otherwise, how are you going to use this so-called infighting to get rid of the Independent Division," Umezu Mijiro asked rhetorically.
Iimura was silent for a moment, "The solution is always thought of, but for now, it is still necessary to let the independent division accept mediation." ” Umezu Mijiro nodded, "Someone." ” "Hi" "Tell Inoue and Nakajima, no matter what, whatever conditions the independent division proposes, we can agree to it for the time being, even if he wants these places, but let them get as many benefits as possible for the empire.
Also, this batch of prisoners must be handed over to the independent division. ” "Hi" Zhou Weiguo didn't know that the idea of the Kwantung Army was now pulling people to discuss a fight, where to fight Beiping, that is, Beijing, is the ancient capital of several dynasties, Yan during the Warring States Period, the former Yan during the Five Dynasties and the Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties have successively settled in Beijing, so Beijing is a city of great historical value.
During the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Yongle moved the capital to Beijing, and Emperor Chongzhen was finally hanged, and the people called it, the Son of Heaven guarded the country, and the king died Sheji.
Throughout history, since the Song Dynasty, only the Ming Dynasty has been ironclad.
As for the Qing Dynasty after that, the events of the past hundred years may have ruined all the reputation built during the Kangqian period.
Therefore, Beiping can't fight, and it's best to be able to hand over peacefully, and there are many things in it, which are too precious.
Although many of them have long been destroyed by the Japanese, as a Chinese, we still have to do our best to preserve them.
"In that case, let's fight Baoding."
Zhou Weiguo opened his mouth and ended everyone's controversy, "While our side sends troops to fight Baoding, let the Shandong side attack the Hengshui area at the same time."
If we win them all, then we really don't have much distance from Shanxi.
At that time, with the troops in Shanxi, I am afraid that it will be able to succeed in one fell swoop. ” "That's what the master said."
Everyone nodded their heads in deep agreement, and in this way, they would be much closer to achieving the original strategic goal.
"In that case, then I'll arrange the task."
"Yes" "Victory, at 5 o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow, that is, on May 2, you will lead the Ninth Brigade from Cangzhou to cooperate with the troops in the direction of Dezhou to attack Hengshui."
"Yes" "Murong, you take the Tenth Brigade and send troops directly from Cangzhou to Baoding" "Yes" "No death, you take the 11th Brigade and send troops directly from Tianjin to Baoding" "Yes" "Lao Chen, you take the 12th Brigade, cooperate with the right side without being killed, and send troops to Baoding" "Yes" "Wang Chao, Zhang Feng, you two with tank brigade and artillery brigade, cooperate with the above-mentioned troops" "Yes" "Okay, let's go back and prepare as soon as possible, remember, the news is kept secret for the time being, so don't let the devils find out" "Yes" After arranging these, Zhou Weiguo nodded with satisfaction, this time, I'm afraid the devil won't be able to fight without fighting, and if he doesn't mediate, he won't be able to.
To tell the truth, it's not that Zhou Weiguo is stingy and refuses to pay the share of the medicine, but the devil's request is 100,000 shares per month, and that year is 1.2 million, which is very terrifying.
Zhou Weiguo didn't want to take back these places peacefully, but these places were captured by devils, since he wanted to take them back, he naturally couldn't take things to redeem, otherwise, what is the difference with the defeated country Since he wants to take them back, then he will be upright, use guns and cannons to drive the devils out, and let the devils return things willingly.
If you really exchange things for something, other countries will definitely think that China is weak and can be bullied, and from time to time you will step on it, which will be very troublesome.
On May 1, Zhou Weiguo originally wanted to inspect the fortifications on the outskirts of Tianjin, but as a result, the people of the mediation association were invited to mediate again.
So, Zhou Weiguo met with the two Japanese who were negotiating again.
"I said it all, if you want something, I really don't want to give a dime to my independent division" Zhou Weiguo helplessly said to a few people, "I'd rather use guns to take them back" Zhou Jun said with a smile.
Nakajima smiled, "China and Japan have been friendly neighbors for generations, although there were some small frictions before, but the historical relationship between you and me is there, and you and I are the two most powerful countries in Asia, in fact, we need to work together to create the future of Asia." ” Zhou Weiguo was surprised, he didn't understand what the devil was trying to do, "It's a little interesting, go on." ” "Hey."
Nakajima nodded, "After I went back yesterday, I tried hard to explain the situation in front of the commander, so His Excellency the commander lowered his requirements again, and my Imperial Japanese Army really has the sincerity to mediate with your army." ” "Say."
"Hey, that's the case, it's not impossible for Zhou Jun to Baoding and Beiping regions."
Nakajima spoke, "Yesterday's three conditions can still be exchanged for these cities, but if Zhou Jun really doesn't want to come out, then there is another way, in order to show sincerity and establish, my Great Japanese Empire can return a part of your territory, unconditionally." ” "Oh":
