Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 880 The storm arises

The Soviet-Japanese Far East War, which lasted for nearly three months, has finally come to an end. In this battle, the Soviet Union and Japan used a total of more than one million troops to engage in fierce fighting in the Far East of the Soviet Union. The war started from Ussuriysk on the coast of the Sea of ​​Japan.

It burned all the way to the high cold areas of Siberia.

In terms of the results of the war, both the Soviet Union and Japan had their own victory or defeat. On the Soviet side, the losses were even greater. The Soviet Second Far East Army commanded by General Timoshenko suffered heavy losses, with more than 200,000 casualties, and the entire Pacific Fleet suffered heavy losses.

The army was annihilated and all the land from Haishanwei to the Xing'an Mountains was lost, although this was snatched from China by Tsarist Russia.

The Japanese Kwantung Army suffered about 200,000 casualties, and its aviation losses exceeded those of the Soviet Union. This battle also exposed the Japanese army's fatal weaknesses in equipment and the command skills of senior commanders. On the surface, the Japanese achieved their goals. According to

Will, occupied most of the Soviet Union's lands in the Far East.

The result of this battle was by no means what Japanese domestic newspapers boasted to ordinary citizens. The Imperial Japanese Army advanced with great success, the Soviet Army retreated steadily, and the empire increased its land area by several square kilometers. The actual inside story, the Japanese Emperor Hirohito and those in the base camp

Senior generals know this clearly.

Over and over, the Kwantung Army lost more than 380,000 troops. These troops and soldiers were all A-class division troops reorganized and trained after experiencing the fiasco at Niuxin Mountain. They were fighting against the Soviet army.

was consumed again. Although there was an urgent need to replenish troops, the current combat strength of the Kwantung Army is far from the "Flower of the Army" that it once was.

Such a victory comes a bit bitterly. With the current strength of the Kwantung Army, it will not dare to challenge Tang Qiuli's Army Division occupying the Jinzhou area in western Liaoning for at least a year and a half. What's more, in order to defeat the Soviet Union, the empire

The army had to pay ten tons of gold and a large amount of industrial equipment to the empire's mortal enemy, the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli.

Begging for peace from their enemies, all the senior generals from Emperor Hirohito to the base camp were holding an unknown fire in their stomachs, just like being slapped in the back while they were having a great time "peeing".

, interrupting the feeling of normal excretion, such a victory is like a strange-flavored bean, which tastes a little sweet at first. After a closer taste, it also tastes bitter and sour, and then there is a spicy and uncomfortable feeling in the stomach.

.

The biggest winner in this war is none other than Tang Qiuli. The Kwantung Army and the Soviet Army are facing each other on the front line of the Waixing'an Mountains. No one can do anything to the other. This is what he wants to see most and is also a result deliberately created. The vast Northeast region

, the garrison strength of the Kwantung Army is extremely weak, and Liu Tiehan's East Point troops can launch an attack at any time.

What is even more advantageous is that the Kwantung Army did not dare to easily launch new offensives in western Liaoning and North China. The East Point troops no longer stabbed the Kwantung Army in the back. This was already a blessing for Emperor Hirohito to burn incense. North China and Pingjin

The region has enjoyed a relatively balanced and stable situation for at least more than a year.

Tang Qiuli could free up his hands to arrange other aspects of work, as well as the ten tons of hard currency gold, 3,000 sets of oil mining equipment and 3,000 sets of precision machine tools, so the ultimate beneficiary of this war was Tang Qiuli.

, although after the war in the Far East, the top leader of the Soviet Union, Stalin

Both Dalin and the Japanese Emperor Hirohito believed that the China devil and the Chinese scoundrel Tang Qiuli were the driving force behind the Soviet-Japanese war. But everything has become a fact. There is no longer the possibility of peace between the Soviet Union and the Japanese.

Sex, knock out your teeth and swallow it in your stomach, consider yourself unlucky.

Everything is under control. Tang Qiuli is absolutely satisfied with the current strategic layout of the Northeast and Far East. This can be seen in his joyful mood in his telegram to Liu Tiehan, "Brother Tiehan, I am happy to hear that the Japanese have come up with more

Five thousand kilograms of gold, my brother's action was really powerful, the strategic pattern of entering the Northeast was certain, and the army's vast wealth was all due to my brother's contribution. I am sending you a special message to commend him."

Liu Tiehan was not as excited as Tang Qiuli. It was always his regret not to take advantage of the inextricable fight between the Soviets and the Japanese to regain the entire Northeast. The knot in his heart was not so easy to untie, so he

The call back to Tang Qiuli was much duller.

"Master Commander, in the war in the Northeast, firstly, the commander commanded well and anticipated the enemy's opportunity; secondly, we directed more than 300,000 soldiers from the east to fight with their lives on the battlefield. As for the individual hero, he has not made any achievements and cannot be worthy of the words of commendation.

"Tang Qiuli received a call back from Liu Tiehan. After reading the message, he was slightly stunned and somewhat surprised.

Liu Tiehan seemed not very happy in his heart, as if he was full of resentment. He was not like this before. Is this guy that kind of evil fire? I wanted to go to the Jinzhou front line and communicate with Liu Tiehan face to face to understand his actual thoughts, but

As time did not allow, the German Ambassador to China, Count von Schederslang, sent another telegram.

The German head of state seemed a little impatient to wait, so Tang Qiuli had no choice but to suppress the matter and concentrate on preparing for a visit to Germany. He only brought Mei Xue, Communications Director Chen Feng, Shan Hu and 28 special guards with him.

After the team members and the personnel accompanying him on the trip were determined, Tang Qiuli locked himself in the room and began to prepare some necessary materials.

Then, he sent telegrams to the commanders of each corps to inform them of their visit to Germany and made corresponding arrangements, especially Liu Tiehan on the Northeast Jinzhou front line, Sun Zhenbang of the Outer Mongolia Border Guard, and the Sulu Mobile Corps stationed in Xuzhou.

Commander Tang Qiusheng, Fleet Commander Tang Qiuquan of Qingdao Naval Base, Marine Corps Commander Han Tie and others.

During the visit to Germany, the directly affiliated corps was under the full command of Chief of Staff Chang Feng. The troops returned to their base in the North Plains. Feng Jiwu's Niangziguan Garrison Corps went south to station in Wuhan as a strategic reserve in central China. Tang Qiuli's main purpose was to do this.

Yes, be prepared for the Japanese to make moves along the southeastern coast during your visit to Germany.

This is a matter within the scope of his authority. There is no need to report to the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government in Chongqing. The Japanese do not dare to take action in the north. The southeastern coast and South China are likely to be the next targets chosen by the Japanese. For those with an aggressive nature,

The Japanese, Tang Qiuli, never dare to take things lightly and must take precautions in advance.

In the blink of an eye, a few busy days passed, and everything that needed to be prepared and arranged was in place. All that was left was to finalize the date of departure. But at this moment, a dark wind blew across the land of the Republic of China, and this dark wind

The source is the wartime capital, Chongqing, a mountain city in the southwest.

There are many versions of the rumors in the market, but there is nothing more than one thing. He was hailed as an anti-Japanese hero and a mainstay in the northern anti-Japanese battlefield. He is currently the vice chairman of the Military Commission of the National Government, the director of the Nanjing camp, and the commander of the North China ** Division.

Will Tang Qiu Li

, reached a secret settlement with the Japanese, and after accepting a large amount of gold from the Japanese, they were ready to recognize the legalization of Japan's occupation of Northeast China, recognize Manchukuo as an independent country, and were preparing to withdraw the troops stationed in the western Liaoning area to the pass.

.

It should be said that such rumors are very childish and childish. Tang Qiuli led his army to fight the Japanese for six years, fighting from Northeast China to North China. He and the Japanese had long forged a sworn hatred. Both sides

There is no possibility of reconciliation at all, and they have successively recovered North China and Outer Mongolia. How can they lose their basic principles of life and national integrity just because of some gold and property?

But when it comes to the rapidly rising number two figure in the Republic of China, Tang Qiuli, who is in the limelight and strength, and who is holding the pressure on Chairman Chiang, is not that simple. It gives people ample room for imagination. The rumors in the market are not credible. Stop the rumors.

Yu Zhizhi, so after Tang Qiuli received the information about the rumors from the Chongqing Intelligence Station from the Intelligence Department, he didn't take it to heart.

However, the development of the situation did not end on its own because Tang Qiuli ignored it. On the contrary, it spread more and more fiercely. At first, it was just spread among the people. Later, some mainstream newspapers in the country also published articles. Although they did not question him in person, they still

Many questions were raised, and it seemed as if there was a mastermind behind the whole thing, adding fuel to the flames and making the matter bigger and better.

Immediately, some seemingly professionals wrote articles in newspapers to demonstrate the possibility of this matter. The only basis was why Tang Qiuli didn't regain the Northeast region when he had the opportunity, ability, and strength.

, instead withdrew troops from the recovered Liaodong Peninsula and Fengtian.

The people who wrote the articles were very knowledgeable about military affairs. They re-enacted the war that took place in the Northeast from September to December as if it were a real scene. The people could not help but be unconvinced. These articles were like bombshells, stirring up thousands of stories.

Lang, Tang Qiuli was in the Dingbian office, frowning at the information sent directly from the Chongqing Intelligence Station.

Until now, Tang Qiuli himself did not believe that the important military officials of the Chongqing National Government were not involved in this matter. The people who wrote the article were obviously those who led troops in the war and should have been in the army. Otherwise, they would definitely

He would not have such rich military knowledge, nor would he be able to write such a lethal article.

As the situation intensified, the major domestic newspapers gradually became more and more strident, questioning continued, and unanimously demanded that Vice Chairman Tang give an explanation to the people to relieve people's concerns. Tang Qiuli was pushed to the forefront. Finally, the situation escalated, and some Republicans in the Republic of China

The government supervisory committee members stood up and asked Tang Qiuli to go to the Chongqing Supervisory Committee and give a reasonable explanation.

What is even more strange is that none of the supervisory committee members who came forward were from the Kuomintang. They were all highly respected members of the democratic parties. It seemed that they paid more attention to this matter than those supervisory committee members from the ruling Kuomintang party, and their attitudes

The intensity seemed a bit like shouting and killing.

The Republic of China government and the Military Commission remained strangely silent on this matter. They neither came out to refute the rumors nor participated in the debate. The important officials of the government and senior military generals, including Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, were all strangely silent.

On the other hand, General Zhang Zhizhong, who was guarding the Songhu area, sent a worried telegram to comfort Tang Qiuli.

When things developed to this point, Tang Qiuli also understood that this was a conspiracy against him, and the origin of this conspiracy should be the Japanese. He had to postpone his visit to Germany again and spend all his energy on

to resolve this matter.
