The war in the Northeast was as expected. The 98th Army swept across the entire Northeast with a sweeping force. Facing the raging armored torrent of the 98th Army, the little devils could hardly think of any way. All they could do was to be defeated again and again! As of September 25, except for some strongholds in Fengtian and Lushun fortresses, other areas have been basically completely occupied by the 98th Army. Now all Chinese people believe that it is only a matter of time before the Japanese are driven out of China. As long as the 98th Army goes south again, it will surely be able to sweep the entire Japanese army in South China. But even as the whole country was beaming with joy, some discordant voices also appeared in many newspapers. The more than 20 German weapon divisions of the National Army were unable to defeat the hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops in Nanjing, but the 98th Army was able to sweep across the 500,000 Japanese troops in the Northeast. It was clear at a glance who was stronger and which was weaker. Once the 98th Army becomes disloyal, I am afraid that no one in the entire Kuomintang Central Committee will be able to control it. ??The Japanese newspapers are even more aggressive in sowing discord. They have listed several conflicts between the 98th Army and the Kuomintang Central Government after the rise of the 98th Army, and asserted that there must be a war between the 98th Army and the Kuomintang Central Government. The only way for the Kuomintang central government to survive is to unite with the Japanese and then fight to the death with the 98th Army. Faced with this situation, people all over the country are confused. Will China soon start a civil war after defeating the Japanese? And things seemed to develop just as the Japanese expected. On September 28, the Kuomintang troops captured Nanjing and captured Wang Jingwei alive, while the Japanese troops retreated to Hangzhou. With the recovery of Nanjing, Chiang Kai-shek's prestige across the country also increased. Just when people thought that Chiang Kai-shek would order his troops to pursue the Japanese army and recapture Shanghai in one fell swoop, news came from the Wuhan Presidential Palace that made people feel worried. The Japanese once again proposed peace talks with the Nationalist Government, but Chiang Kai-shek had agreed to their proposal and ordered the troops to stop pursuing the Japanese. When people learned the news, they were in an uproar. We are about to win, so why bother talking about peace? ¡°Just drive the little devils out of China. Does the Kuomintang really want to cooperate with the Japanese to declare war on the 98th Army? When Lu Mingxuan learned the news, he also frowned. There is something wrong with the current situation! Based on the information coming from Nanjing. Little Japan should be able to resist for a while longer. How could it be possible to lose all at once? Even Wang Jingwei was arrested. How could Old Thief Wang be arrested with his fearful personality? No matter how you look at it, it looks like the Japanese are helping Chiang Kai-shek gain prestige! And will the Kuomintang really cooperate with the Japanese? Lu Mingxuan changed positions with Chiang Kai-shek and found that Chiang Kai-shek might really agree to the Japanese conditions. Otherwise, he would not be a match for the 98th Army at all. What happened in the next few days really verified his guess. A steady stream of good news came from the Wuhan Presidential Palace. On September 30, because the Japanese government deeply admired Chiang Kai-shek¡¯s wise leadership and in order to express their sincerity in peace talks, they decided to hand over the Peking, Jiangyin Fortress, and Hangzhou areas to the Kuomintang government for free. As soon as this news came out. The whole country is worried and happy. Fortunately, the Japanese seemed to have relented and actually handed over Chinese territory to China. The worry is that since the Japanese have made such a big concession, I am afraid that the Kuomintang may really unite with the Japanese and deal with the 98th Army together. For a while, domestic newspapers had a heated discussion on whether the 98th Army would go to war with the Kuomintang and the Japanese. After reading this, Lu Mingxuan could only sigh deeply. Now the 98th Army has really been pushed to the forefront by Japanese and domestic newspapers. I'm afraid he can't do it even if he doesn't want to! And the Japanese have always fought for every inch of land. It is not their usual style to give up a large amount of occupied Chinese land so easily. The only possibility for them to do this is that the Japanese have great intentions. When he thought of this, Lu Mingxuan could no longer sit still. So he summoned his men to discuss the recent events. "Everyone must be aware of the recent situation. Many newspapers are discussing whether our 98th Army will rebel? What do you think about this?" Everyone here looked at each other, and Zhang Yushu's face showed Zhang Boya and Zhang Qinglian had expressions of eagerness to try, while Zhang Boya and Zhang Qinglian had expressionless faces. In the end, it was Zhang Yushu who stood up first and said:"In this situation, we can no longer rebel even if we don't want to. The whole country is discussing whether we will rebel, which will definitely arouse the suspicion of the committee members. Instead of passively waiting for the chairman of the committee to dismember our 98th Army, we should take the initiative to attack , defeating the main force of the Kuomintang in one fell swoop, and then our 98th Army will take control of the world. "Obviously Zhang Yushu is a typical hawk. Since the Kuomintang is not their opponent, it is better to kill the Kuomintang directly and then sit on the throne of China. . For the title of founding hero. Zhang Yushu still covets it very much. "Military seat, you must not do this. The Japanese still occupy a large amount of territory in our country. I think it is not the time for us to fight a civil war. This will only benefit the Japanese. Even if we want to fight a civil war, we have to wait until the general Drive the Japanese out and start a civil war." After hearing what he said, Zhang Qinglian quickly stood up and objected. Now he has figured it out, it seems that it is impossible to prevent Lu Mingxuan from fighting a civil war, so the only thing he can do is to wait until the Japanese are driven out of China before fighting a civil war. "What if the Kuomintang and the Japanese unite? The Japanese are so sincere now. I'm afraid it won't be long before they reach an agreement and then unite to deal with our 98th Army." Zhang Yushu stood up and objected. "I think the Chairman would not do this. Even if he wanted to do this, the Japanese have committed such a heinous crime in China. Those local powerful factions may not agree to unite with the Japanese." Zhang Qinglian Station came out and retorted. "This is not necessarily true. The chairman wants to keep his position, and uniting with the Japanese is his only way to survive." Zhang Yushu said with a sneer. ¡°¡¡± Listening to the two of them arguing non-stop, Lu Mingxuan couldn¡¯t help but feel irritated. "Okay, don't argue for now. I have reached a conclusion on this matter. If the Chairman does not unite with the Japanese, then we will drive the Japanese out first and then fight with the Chairman. If the Chairman really and Japan If people unite, then we will kill them all together." Lu Mingxuan thought for a while and said. ??????????????????????????? The scene couldn't help but be shocked. This is the first time that Lu Mingxuan has so unabashedly revealed his ambition to unify China. Zhang Yushu¡¯s face showed an expression of extreme joy, while Zhang Boya and Zhang Qinglian had complicated faces. "Is there really going to bea civil war?" Zhang Qinglian said a little tremblingly. "Yes." Lu Mingxuan said calmly. "You are wise, Military Commander!" Zhang Yushu said with a face full of joy. "I also support the military seat's opinion." Zhang Boya also agreed. Among them, Zhang Qinglian was the only one who looked down and out. Seeing Zhang Qinglian's look, Lu Mingxuan said a little unbearably: "Mr. Qinglian, I believe that China will become extremely powerful in my hands, and then wash away all the shame it suffered in modern times." "I understand" Zhang Qinglian was a little absent-minded. said. Lu Mingxuan found that he couldn't adapt to it for a while, so he ignored him and said to others: "Let's talk about the negotiations between the Kuomintang and the Japanese now. We cannot remain silent about this matter. We must express ourselves. "Everyone knows the situation now. The little devils who have always been very stingy actually agreed to hand over the territory they occupied to the chairman. Do you think there is something wrong here?" Zhang Boya pondered for a while, and then. He said to Lu Mingxuan: "Judging from the current situation, both of them are working hard to end this war as soon as possible. Once they reach a consensus, I am afraid that will be the day they target us." After listening to his words, Lu Mingxuan's There was also a smile on the corner of his mouth. "Mr. Zhang is right. Peace talks are a good thing. I am not opposed to this kind of thing, but we must not let the Kuomintang and the Japanese sign a traitorous peace treaty." After hearing his words, everyone looked at Lu Mingxuan intently. , I want to hear what he has to say. "So I decided that we must make reasonable demands for compensation on behalf of the Chinese people." (The Chinese people said they were represented again) "First. The Japanese must compensate the soldiers and civilians who killed our country. The compensation standards for each person are based on " Lu Mingxuan knocked on the table gently, and then reported a number that surprised everyone. "Let's calculate 100,000 taels of silver." "Military seat, is this number too high? The Japanese may not agree. "Zhang Boya frowned and said. "In some places in China, a few ocean dollars can buy a life. I'm afraid all Chinese people will think that a life of 100,000 ocean dollars is blackmailing the Japanese. Lu Mingxuan has his plan, How much is a human life worth in the United States in the future? A plane crash can cost millions or tens of millions of dollars. This is much more valuable than 100,000 taels of silver. In his opinion, a human life of 100,000 taels of silver is already considered cheap to the Japanese. "That's it. " Lu Mingxuan saw that others did not agree, and finally made his own decision. "According to the calculation that the Japanese killed 10 million people in China, the Japanese need to compensate us 100 trillion taels of silver. " In the end, Lu Mingxuan came up with a number that made him feel ashamed. Everyone looked at Lu Mingxuan with a strange look. There may not be that much silver on the entire earth. Lu Mingxuan picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip. To cover up his embarrassment ¡°What if the Japanese don¡¯t agree? "Zhang Boya asked. "Then we'll beat him until he agrees. If he doesn't agree, we'll go to his house and get it ourselves. " Lu Mingxuan sneered. "Okay, let's talk about other conditions next. " "second. The Japanese army must pay compensation for all the buildings it destroyed in China, not even a house should be missing! All gold, jewelry, antiques, etc. looted must also be returned. " "Third, the Japanese must hand over all Japanese invaders to China for trial, and the crimes committed by those Japanese devils in China must be thoroughly liquidated. We can't just forget about it as soon as they surrender. " Lu Mingxuan felt extremely sick when he thought of the unrepentant appearance of those old Japanese invaders in later generations. For these Japanese, death should be their best destination. "Fourth, Japan must unconditionally return all the Chinese territories they occupied. To China, which includes Taiwan. " "Fifth. Japan must withdraw from North Korea and hand over North Korea to the South Korean government-in-exile. " Lu Mingxuan concluded one by one. "Do you have anything else to add? " "there is none left. " Others shook their heads and said. They all thought that Lu Mingxuan's request was already too much. If the little devil could agree, then it would be a ghost. Even if they added more, it would be useless. Seeing their disapproval, Looking like this, Lu Mingxuan chuckled a little and said: "What's wrong, do you think my request is unreasonable? Did I just put forward these conditions to derail the peace talks? " Zhang Yushu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Military, your request is very reasonable. But I'm afraid the Japanese won't agree. " "I also know that they will not agree, but as long as my request is reasonable, they must agree! You have to agree even if you don¡¯t agree! If they don't agree, beat them until they agree! " Lu Mingxuan said fiercely. "This is World War II now, not a world full of benevolence, justice and morality in later generations. In later generations, Palestinian children throw stones at Israeli tanks, and at most they are dispersed. " Chinese children throw stones at Japanese tanks, Their fate was to be stabbed to death. This is a world where power is king. Whoever is powerful can invade and trample other countries at will. For example, the Soviet Union once invaded Finland and Poland, and Soviet soldiers were raped after Germany was defeated. Millions of German women were killed, but those Soviet soldiers were still treated like heroes. After the American devils defeated Japan, the Japanese government even sacrificed its own women for the American devils to take turns. It can be said at this point. The United States and the Soviet Union do not look like civilized countries at all. Although Lu Mingxuan does not intend to invade other countries at will like the United States and the Soviet Union, they must take back what is theirs, and justice in this world needs to be presided over by who. Come to host? Of course it¡¯s China! What Lu Mingxuan likes most is to administer justice! The matter is settled. Let¡¯s put forward these five items first, and we can add the others later when we think about them. In addition, I would like to talk about the situation in the Northeast. " "The Northeast has basically fallen into our hands now, so we must send officials there. Due to our limited manpower,?So at most we can only send some provincial-level officials there, and those officials at the municipal level and below can only be chosen by the people. " Lu Mingxuan said to them. "So I decided to let Mr. Zhang and Mr. Qinglian serve as provincial chairmen there. I wonder if these two gentlemen are willing? "After listening to his words, Zhang Yushu looked at the two of them with envy. This is the real frontier official! Although he is the head of the 98th Army Intelligence Organization, he is not as glorious as the provincial chairman said. " I do. Thank you very much for your trust. I will definitely work hard to live up to your trust. "Zhang Boya said to Lu Mingxuan with excitement. Although he had expected this day, he didn't expect that this day would come so quickly, leaving him unprepared. "As long as Mr. Zhang works hard, I will have a heavier burden waiting for him. Let Mr. Zhang pick it out. "Lu Mingxuan said to Zhang Boya with a smile on his face. "What about Mr. Qinglian? " "I still like to be a teacher. Being an official is not suitable for me. "Zhang Qinglian shook his head and refused. "Since Mr. Qinglian is not willing, I won't force him. However, I will have to worry about the Jiaozuo Road and Mine School in the future. "Lu Mingxuan said to Zhang Qinglian. "Please rest assured, military commander, on this point. I will definitely manage my students well. Zhang Qinglian nodded and said. After everyone left, Lu Mingxuan let out a long sigh. It seemed that he still had to find two provincial chairmen. This really put him in a bit of a dilemma, asking him to find two capable and loyal people. It's really not an easy job to be a subordinate. It's not surprising that Zhang Qinglian doesn't want to be an official. This era is not like that of later generations. Everything must be linked to politics. There are still some people who are scholars. PS: Thank you very much for the monthly ticket from Devil Sword Boy.
