"My great prime minister, tell me, are we still brothers? Are we buddies?"
In Fang Zida¡¯s office, Army General Cao Kun unbuttoned his uniform without grace, put his hands on his waist, blew his beard, and scolded Fang Zida, who was laughing with him.
"Brother ZhongshanOld Cao! Didn't you say this to slap my brother in the face? I think you and I have known each other since the first president was here. Liang Yansun instigated the eldest son to rebel. If Brother Zhongshan hadn't told the truth in advance, brother How could I be where I am today? To put it aside, Brother Zhongshan also made great efforts in the Xu Youzheng incident a few years in advance. These brothers all remember it in their hearts"
Cao Kun's expression softened slightly, and a trace of pride flashed in his eyes, but he still waved his hand and shouted at a loud voice: "Since the Prime Minister still regards Lao Cao as his brother, then I can agree to what I just mentioned. If you don't do it today, Agree, what I just said was just pure fart! You are trying to fool me, Lao Cao."
Fang Zida couldn't laugh or cry. Cao Kun's ability to pretend to be stupid was top-notch. Even Zhang Zuolin, who also liked to pretend to be rough, couldn't match him. Not only that, he also liked to be messy, which was really difficult to deal with.
"Brother Zhongshan, it's not a question of whether you agree or not. You also know that the main military plan for increasing troops to the Soviet Union this time was formulated by the General Staff. Although I am the Prime Minister, military matters still have to be dealt with. Consider the opinions of the General Staff. Moreover, Brother Zhongshan is now the commander of the military region, and the troops are stationed along the Yangtze River to protect the place. Regardless of the deployment of soldiers or other considerations, Brother Zhongshan is not the most suitable candidate."
Fang Zida personally poured a glass of water for Cao Kun and patiently explained with a smile. Cao Kun didn't know where he got the news. After hearing that the central government was going to continue to send more troops to the Soviet-Russian battlefield, he actually took a plane from Changsha to the capital overnight and rushed to the State Council without even bothering to eat breakfast. Waiting for Fang Zida.
After meeting Fang Zida, without saying a word, Cao Kun asked to be the commander-in-chief of the reinforcements. Fang Zida was stunned when he heard this. You must know that according to the troop reinforcement plan reported by the General Staff Headquarters, the commander-in-chief of the reinforcements had long been determined, and Army Lieutenant General Sun Chuanfang would be the one. As Chief of General Staff, Wu Peifu gave this position to Sun Chuanfang because of his outstanding performance in the Sino-Japanese Jiaodong Campaign. Wu Peifu, who served as the commander-in-chief at the time, was still very satisfied with Sun Chuanfang's command and combat capabilities as the commander of Qing*dao Fortress. As a former subordinate, and because Sun Chuanfang's troops were stationed in Zhangjiakou, Wu Peifu naturally thought of him.
Cao Kun is not an outsider. He and Fang Zida are considered brothers. Moreover, Cao Kun is senior and has a high status in the army. Logically speaking, Fang Zida would not refuse his request. However, this time it is a bit embarrassing. Now the reinforcements are almost leaving, and Sun Chuanfang, as the commander-in-chief, has also arrived. Changing generals at this time will disrupt the entire plan, which is very inappropriate for the overall strategic deployment.
Therefore, Fang Zida politely rejected Cao Kun's request. Of course, he also promised that if the next batch of reinforcements goes to the front line, Cao Kun will be appointed as the commander-in-chief.
Who would have thought that as soon as these words came out, Cao Kun jumped up: "What! Another batch? Su Ooming is almost finished, and the next batch will have some hair! Do you, Fang Zhangming, want me to run into Lao Maozi's territory with empty hands? Is it possible to wander around and come back empty-handed? What a wonderful thought! Feng Huafu ate meat and drank milk in Europe back then, and Lu Langzhai now drank from the Volga River. Even Shang Qiyu also had fun on Lao Maozi's territory, and now he still Sun Xinyuan has done it. Tell me, what is the point where I am not as good as them? I think back then my third division was the most elite in Beiyang. Not to mention Lu Langzhai and Shang Qiyu, even Feng Huafu had to give me three points. Now. , they eat meat, and let me just stare at them? No! Absolutely not! No matter what. As the commander-in-chief, I am the commander-in-chief, and you should treat me as the commander-in-chief!"
Cao Kun acted like a rogue, and Fang Zida had nothing to do with him. In the end, he could only resort to a move called Shifting the World, and pushed the matter onto Wu Peifu. Fang Zida told Cao Kun, since Commander Cao insists on being the commander-in-chief, as an old friend. Old brother, Fang Zida is not beyond consideration, but the entire Strategic Deployment General Staff has already had plans, and now the troops are about to depart. If you want to replace Cao Kun, you can only go to the General Staff. As long as the General Staff agrees to make adjustments, Fang Zida will have no objection.
After hearing this, Cao Kun suddenly grinned. He pretended to be stupid and said what he wanted in the end in front of Fang Zida. In his opinion, as long as Fang Zida nodded, the General Staff would be sure to get it done. You must know that Wu Peifu is an old man from his third division. Speaking of it, he is still Wu Peifu's benefactor and old commander. With his old face, even if he stalks him, he still has to get the general staff to change his mind. Immediately, Cao Kun stood up and went straight to the General Staff Headquarters without saying a word.
With the mentality of a dead Taoist friend rather than a poor Taoist, I threw this hot potato to Wu Peifu who still didn¡¯t know what was going on.??Fang Zida finally breathed a sigh of relief. Regardless of how Cao Kun negotiated with Wu Peifu or what the General Staff decided in the end, Fang Zida was most concerned about the situation on the Soviet-Russian battlefield.
Lu Jianzhang¡¯s army captured Vladimir under the power of napalm, completely opening the last door to Moscow. The following Battle of Moscow was the most critical part of the entire war. Battle reports from the front showed that after learning that Vladimir had been lost, Stalin frantically organized counterattacks again and again, although each counterattack was defeated. The Chinese *** Regiment's retreat also slowed down the Chinese *** Regiment's march into Moscow.
Although Lu Jianzhang asked the Air Force to continue using napalm to open the way for the attack, when the news reached Fang Zida, Fang Zida vetoed the plan. This is mainly due to the importance of Moscow in Russia. In view of the requirements of the Far East Government, the Far East Government hopes to preserve this historic city, and the power of napalm bombs is too great. If napalm bombs are used in urban areas, there will be many casualties. The number of civilians will be a terrifying one, which will cause the Russian people's strong resentment against the occupying forces after the victory of the war. Even the return of the Far East government will cause unnecessary trouble.
For this reason, Fang Zida is still cautious about the use of napalm bombs. Unless necessary, use it as little as possible. Especially in urban battles, napalm bombs are not allowed to be used to avoid causing large casualties to civilians.
Taking over Moscow is only a matter of time. The General Staff estimates that based on the current war situation, Moscow can be completely occupied in about a month at most. Therefore, Fang Zida began to think about post-war issues. According to intelligence, Poland and other countries, armed with 300,000 troops armed by Western powers, were ready to dispatch, rushing to get a piece of the Soviet-Russian battlefield. Their main targets are Belarus and Ukraine. Since Stalin mobilized troops from these two regions, Poland and other countries have an opportunity to take advantage of this opportunity to bite off a piece of Soviet Russia and take back the Tsarist Russia. The occupied territory is an opportunity that these countries have dreamed of for hundreds of years.
After occupying Moscow, this war will come to an end. The next main task of the Chinese Communist Regiment is to help the Far East government return to Russia and to wipe out the Soviet Red Army scattered in various places. According to the pre-war agreement, China will take back the millions of square kilometers of land previously occupied by Northern Tsarist Russia after victory. In addition, it will also acquire 300,000 square kilometers in southeastern Kazakhstan and nearly 400,000 square kilometers in Ulan-Ude-Lake Baiga. kilometers of land.
At the same time, the Chinese government will also have 20-year mining rights to the Tyumen Oilfield and some Russian mining resources. The Russian Empire will provide the Chinese government with preferential commercial policies. Chinese banks and financial institutions can enter the Russian market without obstacles and a series of preferential policies. condition. It is equivalent to saying that although the Russian Empire will still be a big country in the future, the economic lifeline of the entire country will be in the hands of the Chinese. Although the top leaders of the Far East government also understand that these conditions are extremely harsh, which is almost treasonous to say the least. But compared with the resurgence of the Russian Empire, these costs are still affordable. Besides, the Chinese are not too ambitious. They only asked for a 20-year term for the mining rights. This is compared to the British who took Hong Kong in 1999. The words are already much more generous.
However, the Far East government did not know that in addition to wanting these, Fang Zida was also secretly preparing to dismember Russia. He planned to separate Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Lithuania, Belarus and other regions from Russia as a whole after the war and form several relatively independent countries to limit Russia's possible expansion in the future. At this point, through the relationship with the American consortium, Fang Zida has reached private agreements with several Western powers. This is one of the main reasons why he finally acquiesced to Poland and other countries sending troops at this time.
With the changes in the Sino-Soviet War, the neighbors to the east seem to be much more honest recently. According to reports from the Security Bureau and the Intelligence Bureau, Japan's plan to instigate Northeast China and implement separatism against the Manchu elders and children was suspended. It seemed that they were frightened by the power displayed by the Chinese in the Sino-Soviet War.
Of course, the Japanese have never stopped making small moves in private. The Japanese military has even made a request to the Chinese government to send a military observation team like Western countries. However, this request was taken for granted by the Chinese government on the grounds that the two countries have only ceased war so far. Refused. In order to prevent the Japanese from using their brains at this time and to ensure that the Sino-Soviet battlefield was not affected by external factors, Fang Zida placed an armored division in the northeast, Zhang Zuolin's group army, and the garrison in Shandong to keep a close eye on the Japanese. This move made them dare not move rashly.
Unknown to the Japanese, Fang Zida¡¯s aircraft carrier quietly built in the South China Sea is about to be completed, and China¡¯s new navy is stepping up training and running-in with the cooperation of the Air Force. In Fang Zida¡¯s plan, after the Sino-Soviet war is over and the Soviet Union is freed from the battlefield, the Chinese government will be faced with solving the last problem, which isIt is the little Japan that has been taking advantage of the situation since the Sino-Japanese War of 1999 and 1999, and has been lying on China's body to suck up its blood.
