Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 884: One person’s stage

There was an undercurrent surging in the mountain city of Chongqing. After the Japanese set a fire, they hid behind to watch the excitement, spent a lot of money to bribe some unscrupulous scholars and scum, and then added fuel to the fire. Those in the Chongqing government wanted Tang Qiuli to fall into it.

The officials of the Abyss of Eternal Calamity, upon hearing the news, started making trouble one after another, and some even went into battle shirtless.--%.net

On the point of overthrowing Tang Qiuli, the Japanese and some senior officials of the Chongqing government had a surprisingly tacit understanding. Chairman Chiang sat firmly in his official residence in Huangshan, watching not with cold eyes but with joy as the storm stirred up in Chongqing and Tang Qiuli's reputation was ruined.

, becoming what many people call a traitor is the result he most hopes to see.

This is also Chairman Chiang's favorite method. It is more ideal than killing Tang Qiuli directly. His arrogant and powerful generals cannot find fault with the government. This is the will of the people. Even the most powerful figures cannot.

We cannot ignore the voice of the people. No matter how many troops you Tang Qiuli has, you cannot silence everyone.

Therefore, today's Inquiry Meeting of the Control Council can be said to have been convened under the instruction of Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, and the old man who started the attack was kept in the dark and became the gunman, so that a pure scholar can

When raising such a professional military issue, the people behind it all worked hard on the old gentleman.

Tang Qiuli could deny or defend such a question. The problem was that this old gentleman was someone he respected, and his character was very much in line with Tang Qiuli's taste. Furthermore, it was difficult for him to understand someone who did not understand him.

The military literati defended military issues, but he himself had no confidence in persuading this stubborn old gentleman and would get entangled in the details and be unable to extricate himself.

"Old sir, in a word, there is nothing we can do. The Northeastern Kwantung Army has millions of people and has been operating in the Northeast for decades. It is deeply rooted. However, the strength of our *** Division in the Northeast is only a mere 200,000. It can stabilize western Liaoning.

The Jinzhou area is already very difficult, and it would be difficult for a strong man to accomplish all his efforts in one battle."

"Of course, the troops of our ** Division in the Northeast can fight to the death and recover as much territory as possible, but once the Kwantung Army attacks with all its strength, our army in the Northeast will only be annihilated. By then, not only will Western Liaoning be unprotected,

, the Japanese invaders will take the opportunity to capture Shanhaiguan and send troops to North China and even the Pingjin area. If so, North China, Pingjin area will fall again. If the northern barrier is lost, Henan and even the Central Plains area, do you think it can still be saved?"

Tang Qiuli's tone was clear and eloquent. The old man's decades of life experience were not even close to Tang Qiuli's when it came to military issues. His thoughts could not help but follow the young man in front of him.

Turning around, he couldn't help but shake his head. In fact, he already agreed with Tang Qiuli's view.

Tang Qiuli's respect for this respected old gentleman has gained another level. The old gentleman is not the same. The handsome demeanor of the young man in front of him has first been recognized by the old gentleman with a strong character. This is what he

The image of generals in my mind, those generals of the government, are either brave warriors or cunning and cunning people. The energy and thought used in resisting Japanese pirates is less than one percent of those who go around to gain promotion and fortune.

It was even more difficult to rely on them to drive away the Japanese pirates. Since the old man did not object to his statement, Tang Qiuli simply started a discussion and saved others from having to worry about this issue.

"Perhaps some other respected committee members would like to ask, the North China Army now has hundreds of thousands of troops, is well-equipped, and is second to none among all armies. Why not use all its strength to regain the Northeast? Still the same sentence

, Strength does not allow it, our North China Army’s defense line stretches from the Songhu area in the south to the Bohai Bay in the north, and stretches for thousands of kilometers. The Japanese army can choose any point to attack."

"If I, Tang Qiuli, use all my troops to regain the Northeast, we can certainly create miracles. However, the loss of troops will be unprecedentedly huge. It is hard to say whether we will have the strength to fight again. Once as a citizen

The North China Army Division, the mainstay of the anti-Japanese battlefield in the north of the government, suffered serious losses. Next, in the face of the Japanese pirates' attack, what will be used to resist? How can we ensure that the beautiful land in the south of the Yangtze River will not be trampled by the Japanese pirates' iron hoofs? "

At this point, Tang Qiuli's tone turned sharp, with a vague meaning of questioning, and his eyes flashed with a fierce aura. Who is qualified to compete with Vice Chairman Tang, who has been fighting on the front line of the Anti-Japanese War, on military strategy?

It's a trick, it's self-inflicted, not to mention these supervisory committee members, even the senior generals of the government, how many of them have been fighting the Japanese for six years?

"It is true that someone in the Tang Dynasty could use his army to regain the lost territory in the Northeast for his own fame, and win a reputation that was spread throughout the country, but what about the future? The North China army has exhausted all the troops. Who will support the battle in the north? So, the Tang Dynasty

Qiu Li will never do it for a mere

I have a false reputation and show off my temporary bravery, leaving the north with no defense against the enemy. I am the eternal sinner of our Chinese nation. I don’t want such a false reputation. I am willing to bear the infamy. My merits and demerits will be commented by future generations. Tang Qiuli is only here.

Say it with a clear conscience."

After finishing his words, there was a lingering sound. Tang Qiuli looked at everyone calmly. In the huge Overwatch Council conference room, there was silence. Only the spotlight in the reporter's hand was flashing, and the pen in his hand was writing desperately.

, write down every word Tang Qiuli said.

Tang Qiuli secretly laughed in his heart, and then realized that he had the potential of a politician. Even when he told lies, he did not blush. What he just said was clear and upright. He also dressed himself up as a great cause of the nation, and endured the humiliation and was willing to bear the burden.

Those who accept the misunderstanding, in fact, if Liu Tiehan's East Point troops, his own directly affiliated corps, and Feng Jiwu's Niangziguan garrison are mobilized, the Northeast can definitely be successfully recovered, and the casualties will not be too large.

At that time, the Kwantung Army was already tied up with Zhukov's Soviet Far Eastern Front and was unable to return to the Northeast to aid. Even if it finally came back, it would be a tired and bruised soldier. It was not a cause for concern, but it was not in line with its long-term strategic layout.

Therefore, let the Japanese stay in Northeast China for a while.

No words were spoken and no one asked questions. Tang Qiuli would not miss this good opportunity to promote himself. He continued: "Everyone, I am not saying that the day when the Northeast is recovered is far away. As long as we are strong enough, the Northeast can be recovered at any time. Of course

, increase the number of North China ** divisions

The heavy responsibility of strength will fall on all friends from the press. I hope you will spread the word that our army is the only team that has always fought against Japanese pirates. We welcome passionate young people from all over the country to join the ranks of the North China Army.

Fight for the Chinese nation"

It went too far. It turned the occasion of the Control Council's questioning into a lecture hall for personal speeches and a press conference for recruiting troops. However, the speech was made confidently, righteously and impeccably. The old gentleman who first raised the question was the first to encourage

Raising his hands, he was completely impressed by Tang Qiuli.

If it weren't for his advanced age, he would have had the urge to join the army. Then, stormy applause resounded in the auditorium of the Supervisory Council. There were even some young reporters, with burning flames in their eyes. They probably already had it in their hearts.

If anyone continues to dwell on the idea of ​​going north to join the army and whether Tang Qiuli will regain the Northeast, he will probably become everyone's public enemy.

After the applause subsided, the chairman of the meeting asked: "Members of the Supervisory Committee, do you have any questions? Do you want to question General Tang? If not, the meeting will be adjourned." The chairman was also troubled. He came with a mission, and he was the highest ranking officer.

He has no control over the leader's intentions or the direction of the meeting.

If it continues to develop, won't it become a stage where the government pays and provides a venue for Tang Qiuli to perform alone? If the blind supervisory committee asked something off-topic, Tang Qiuli would expose some of the government's inside stories to the public.

If he shakes it out, I'm afraid his role as chairman will come to an end, and the consequences will be disastrous, and he will die miserably.

But there was someone who didn't know what he was looking for. A supervisory committee member in his fifties and wearing a suit stood up and said, "Wait a minute, Comrade Chairman, I still have questions to ask General Tang," said the chairman of the meeting.

He secretly complained in his heart. He was very familiar with this person. They had a better personal relationship. He was a supervisory committee member of the Kuomintang. He was usually a restless boss and was very close to Yang Yongtai, Zhang Qun and other political science department bosses.

.

"I would like to ask General Tang, can you explain to the entire Supervisory Committee the acceptance of ten tons of gold, three thousand sets of oil extraction equipment and precision machine tools from the Japanese as a prerequisite for not regaining Northeast China? Does this mean that General Tang

Are you making peace with the Japanese in private to satisfy your own private interests? Please answer truthfully." This person's voice was not high, but his tone was gloomy, and the questions were particularly poisonous.

This is not an explanation for you, Tang Qiuli, to evade the truth and attack the fictitious, but you must answer. In other words, the evidence for this matter is conclusive. You can only tell the motive. In the auditorium, there was a whisper of whispers. Most people,

They all looked at the god on the stage with worried eyes.

Only a few of the composed young generals showed joy on their faces. Tang Qiuli cannot cover up this issue with impassioned words. As long as you explain, at least this is the case.

, real money, can you tell clearly?

"This is absolutely not the case. I wonder, committee member, from where did you learn that I, Tang Qiuli, accepted gold and equipment from the Japanese. If there is conclusive evidence, you might as well bring it out on the spot so that everyone can open their eyes.

If there is a witness, you might as well let him show up and testify against me, Tang Qiuli, on the spot. I also want to know the source of this committee member’s information?"

Tang Qiuli said calmly, "There are no witnesses or physical evidence. Liu Tiehan cannot be stupid enough to give a receipt to the Japanese. With the bad temper of the Japanese, it is even more impossible to do it in front of so many Chinese people."

If you admit that you were forced to bleed a lot, then where is the face of the Japanese Empire? Where is the majestic reputation of the imperial army?

The Japanese can secretly target themselves, but they will not go to such a place to kill the Japanese in public. This proves that the Yamato nation, which has always been superior, is forced to fight against its enemies in order to avoid losses for its troops.

The target, humble and begging for help, is willing to pay the price of ten tons of gold and a large amount of equipment.
