"I really didn't expect things to turn out like this." After getting in the car, Zhang Xueliang put away his smile and replaced it with a bitter look.
"After my father passed away, the people under my command were submissive to me on the surface, but they made irresponsible remarks behind my back. They said that I was uneducated and incompetent. Thanks to Zu Yin, I became the security commander of the Northeast District. Where does my prestige lie in the long run, so I just want to take back our rights and interests in the China-Eastern Railway. Last year, my father also took back some rights and interests. The Soviets didn¡¯t react at all. I thought they knew they were in the wrong and didn¡¯t dare to speak out. Who would have thought that there would be such a big reaction this time? ." Zhang Xueliang explained to Zhang Anle. In fact, it's more of a pouring out of bitterness than an explanation. .
After listening to Zhang Xueliang's words, Zhang Anle smiled bitterly in his heart. Even if you are in a hurry to establish your authority, you can't choose this time. Our south is about to be pacified. Well, if you cause such trouble in the northeast, I have to bring back all our troops.
Zhang Anle also knows that Zhang Xueliang is not easy. He is a young man of 26 this year. At the time of Zhang Anle in future generations, he was not married yet and was at the age of being single and having fun. It's really hard for him to have to bear so much pressure now. When Zhang Anle thought this, he ignored that his biological age was only 24 years old. When he traveled back in time in his previous life, he was only 23 and a recent college graduate.
"Actually, I can't blame you for this. Stalin in the Soviet Union encountered similar problems to you."
"What? His subordinates are also restless?" As soon as Zhang Anle said this, Zhang Xueliang suddenly got into the spirit of gossip and asked eagerly.
"In fact, it is not just Stalin, but also Chiang Kai-shek in the south. They all came to power at the beginning of the intra-party struggle. Although they have a certain prestige, they are not absolutely superior candidates, so they all want to rely on a war to increase their own power. prestige. You have the same purpose as them, but the situation is different. You are the eldest son of the commander-in-chief and the most capable one. Even if you are the commander-in-chief of the Northeast, others will be a little dissatisfied. But it is difficult to shake your Status. You did act a little too hastily this time. If you can be patient, win over a group of people, and then suppress a group of people, you can easily gain power." Zhang Anle explained to Zhang Xueliang, and then complained tactfully to Zhang Xueliang. .
"You're right. It's just that you are not in my position and don't know how I feel when I hear the rumors. Sometimes I really want to lead the troops to arrest them all and kill them all." Zhang Xueliang said and then almost gritted his teeth. , which shows how angry he is.
"Haha, actually this is not a bad thing. If we fight a war with the Soviet Union now, we can at least ensure that the border will be worry-free within a few years." Zhang Anle said with a smile.
"Are you sure you can win this battle?" Zhang Xueliang heard what Zhang Anle said, and he was certain to win this battle, and he couldn't believe it.
"Of course, the military reforms carried out by the Soviet Union last year reduced the previous more than 5 million troops to 500,000. In addition to a large part of the recovery, some local troops were also organized. This time the Far East Army commanded by Blucher, There are a total of 8 divisions, 4 of which are national divisions and four are local divisions. Their national divisions are of course elite, but the combat effectiveness of local divisions is much lower. Regardless of whether our National Defense Forces Both the quality and quantity of weapons are better than those of the Soviets, and the military quality of our troops is not inferior to theirs. In addition, with the backing of your 300,000 troops, I have an 80% chance of winning, and the remaining 20% ??is Stalin. The dog is so anxious that it jumps over the wall and prepares for an all-out war." Zhang Anle told Zhang Xueliang the reason for his confidence.
"Hearing you say that, I feel relieved. This incident was originally caused by me. So I fully support you in this military operation. If you want money, give money, if you want people, give things to others." Zhang Xueliang Hearing what Zhang Anle said made me feel relieved.
"Hahaha, since you said that, I won't be polite. I really have a request." Zhang Anle laughed.
"If you have any requests, just ask." Zhang Xueliang was also unambiguous.
"Cavalry. All I ask for is cavalry." Zhang Anle looked at Zhang Xueliang and said seriously.
"Okay, no problem, I will transfer three cavalry brigades to you." Zhang Xueliang agreed simply.
The cavalry brigade in the Northeast generally has three regiments, each regiment has four cavalry companies, one company has more than 180 people, and one regiment has about 3,000 people. Three brigades are about one person. With these three brigades, Zhang Anle has a greater chance of winning.
"Welcome the Commander-in-Chief to come to Harbin for inspection." Vice Chairman of the Northeast District, Zhang Zuoxiang did not go with Zhang Xueliang to greet Zhang Anle, but waited at the door of the Heilongjiang Provincial Government. At this time, he saw Zhang Anle and Zhang Xueliang getting off the car together, and hurriedly came forward to greet him. go.
"Haha, I haven't seen you for a long time, but the auxiliary commander is still as charming as ever."
"I am already an old man, so I don't have any grace. To be more elegant, you and our commander-in-chief have to be the commander-in-chief." Zhang Zuoxiang looked ashamed.The wife said.
"I've met the Commander-in-Chief!" The officers behind Zhang Zuoxiang saluted Zhang Anle and said hello.
"Sorry for the long wait, everyone." Zhang Anle returned the greeting.
"Commander-in-Chief, please." Zhang Zuoxiang asked Zhang Anle to walk into the government.
Entering the reception room of the provincial government, several people sat in separate seats. In addition to Zhang Xueliang and Zhang Zuoxiang, there are also Wu Junsheng, the governor of Heilongjiang Province and commander of the Security Command, and Wan Fulin, the deputy governor.
"What is the attitude of the Soviet people now?" Zhang Anle asked Zhang Zuoxiang as soon as he came up.
"Their attitude is very tough. They demand that we immediately release the imprisoned Soviets, apologize to the Soviet government, and compensate the Soviet Union for economic losses of 5 million oceans. They demand that we reduce the number of road protection troops and change the original half of the income of one family to seven to others. 3. They also restricted the rights of Chinese directors. What¡¯s even more annoying is that they don¡¯t allow bargaining. The Soviet representative said very forcefully, you are either agreeing to our conditions, or you are preparing to face the anger of the Soviet people." Zhang Zuoxiang simply said He talked about the conditions of the Soviet people.
"That is to say, the Soviets have no intention of peace talks." Although he had known this result for a long time, Zhang Anle was still a little disappointed. After all, he did not want to fight.
"It seems like this now. They were a little more relaxed a few days ago, but they have become very tough these days. It seems that the arrival of Blucher and the Far East Army has made them feel more confident." Zhang Zuoxiang thought of and When the Soviets were negotiating, I felt a dull pain in my head.
"Since they are unwilling to talk, we will not talk either, and there is no need to make concessions to them." When Zhang Anle heard that the Soviets had no intention of peace talks, he completely blocked the road to peace talks.
"But I don't think the current troops can defeat the Soviets, especially our troops in the Northeast. Their weapons and equipment are backward, and the quality of each department is also uneven. On the other hand, the Soviet army, from the beginning of the revolution, to the civil war, to They resisted foreign interference and forged a steel army. Although their strength is 500,000, these 500,000 troops are definitely the most elite troops in the world. Although the commander-in-chief has transferred 8 divisions to the north, I am worried , these eight divisions are no match for the Soviets. If the south is now determined and the commander-in-chief can mobilize 20 divisions to go north, there may be a chance of victory." After all, Zhang Zuoxiang still did not believe that he could defeat the Soviet Union.
"The auxiliary commander only knows one thing but not the other. The Soviet Union's 500,000 troops are indeed one of the few elite troops in the world. However, only half of the troops preparing to participate in the battle this time are their elite troops, and the other one is the local troops of the Siberian Military District. . Our navy is stronger than theirs. Their offensive can only be concentrated in the Mongolian areas west of Manchuria. These places have vast terrain and are almost impossible to defend. Under this terrain, the impact of the military quality of the army will be minimized. , the decisive factor is the weapons and equipment of both sides. Although the Soviet Union has streamlined its troops, its weapons and equipment have always been a shortcoming. Now the production capacity of Soviet military industrial enterprises is very low, and the equipment rate of machine guns and artillery is not very high. This precisely gives our advantage Don't worry, Auxiliary Commander, my eight divisions will be responsible for the frontal battle in this battle with the Soviet Union. You can send troops to attack north and east. The Soviet army lost the battle, and it will take at least more than a month for reinforcements. After all this time, the war in the south must have come to an end. By then, it will be even harder to say who will win and who will lose." Zhang Anle explained to Zhang Zuoxiang.
"The commander-in-chief said that we should attack eastward and northward, and we will decide who will own the land we occupy." Wan Fulin suddenly interjected from behind.
"Of course it belongs to the Northeast District, but Vladivostok must be directly under the country's jurisdiction." Zhang Anle didn't expect that before the war started, he actually became concerned about dividing the territory. But when Zhang Anle saw the expectant look on Zhang Zuoxiang's face, he was told what he was thinking.
"Haha, Commander-in-Chief is so refreshing." Wan Fulin smiled happily.
No wonder he is happy, because Wan Fulin has been the provincial governor for a long time, and his qualifications are older than those of Guo Songling who has died and Li Jinglin who has resigned, let alone Zhang Zongchang. However, he has never been able to become the governor. If this time, as Zhang Anle said, he captured Amur Oblast or Vladivostok, a new province would definitely be established. I have a chance to become governor.
"Governor Wan, don't talk nonsense. A war is a war. It's outrageous to think about how to divide the territory before the war has started." Zhang Xueliang said to Wan Fulin with some dissatisfaction. He was afraid that Zhang Anle would misunderstand him.
Zhang Xueliang is very troubled by Wan Fulin. He has mediocre abilities and is suitable for being the second-in-command. He obeys orders and has absolutely nothing to say. But being the leader will expose many problems, and he doesn't know much about political affairs at all. Otherwise, with his qualifications, he would have become the governor long ago, so why wait until now to still be Wu Junsheng's subordinate.
"Haha, it doesn't matter. In fact, no matter whether it is going north or east, my interest is??Big. All I want is Vladivostok, and my plan is to build a naval base here. Other areas are of course under the jurisdiction of the Northeast District Government. "Zhang Anle smiled and emphasized that he wanted Vladivostok.
"Of course, as long as it can be won, Vladivostok will be under the direct jurisdiction of the central government." Zhang Xueliang was very happy to see Zhang Anle say this again, and nodded quickly.
