- Chapter 425: Jiangnan is busy recruiting troops
This stalemate and temporary calm made people mistakenly think that the war had solidified in North China in early August 1937. Only Tang Qiuli, the Chief of General Staff of the Japanese base camp in Peiping, Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen, and The titular Supreme Commander of the North China Expeditionary Force, Koyuki Kiyoshi, knew this.
The calm on the surface is to prepare for a more violent and fatal blow. The two sides are already fighting red-eyed, and the wolves are already stained with the blood of their opponents. There is no possibility of stopping. Once the war begins, unless one side falls. Otherwise, there is no possibility of closure. What's more, this small loss is nothing more than a slight skin injury to the powerful Japanese Empire.
Zai Ren believed that the fundamental reason for the defeat in the first battle in North China was that the intelligence channels were not smooth. The Japanese Army's more than 200,000 troops were ambushed in the suburbs of Peiping, but we knew nothing about it and thought the opponent was just the 29th Army of China's miscellaneous troops. , and suffered a big loss. Zai Ren saw the real reason for the failure on the night of the July 7th Incident. Although there was some intention to excuse his old friend Xiang Yue Qingji, he also told the truth. This guy can be the chief of general staff of the base camp. The position is not unworthy of its reputation.
Subsequently, he coordinated the base camp intelligence headquarters to secretly move the headquarters of the "Bamboo" agency among the "Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, and Chrysanthemum" four major spy agencies outside the Japanese military spy system from Shanghai to Peiping, and established a secret agency parallel to the Japanese spy agency in Peiping. Another intelligence system besides Changxiao Lin Duoxi's second system.
His order to Abezo, the current director of the "Bamboo" agency, is to focus on collecting all intelligence about Tang Qiuli and the North China Army. I want to know everything about him, crack the intelligence network of the Army in North China, and cut off The intelligence source of the military commander, I hope Mr. Abe can become the nemesis of the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli. I look forward to your good news.
Tang Qiuli knew all the news about the Japanese army's increase in troops in North China. The intelligence system of the Japanese Army covered Northeast and North China, but he did not know that in order to deal with him, Zai Ren arranged a special spy agency to collect information about himself and the troops. This is an invisible hidden line that will cause Tang Qiuli to suffer a big loss sooner or later, and his achievements in North China will also be written into the history of the Republic of China.
According to the war history of the Republic of China, the Japanese invaded China and had planned it for a long time. They first provoked the enemy under the Wanping City in Beiping. Our country couldn't bear it and fought back. General Tang Qiuli, the vice chairman of the National Military Commission, and the handsome tiger and the brave warrior, all fought in the three battles in North China. The Japanese were severely defeated, causing them to lose more than 300,000 soldiers, and many Japanese chiefs were killed. They killed the Japanese's ambition to invade the south in the Pingjin area, and protected the land south of the Yellow River from the Japanese. Vice Chairman Tang took the credit. He was so great that he became famous all over the world with this battle.
Tang Qiuli knew the bitter truth. In the fierce fighting in North China and Northeast China for more than 20 days, all units of the ** division suffered losses of one and a half brigades, nearly 20,000 people, and they were all the backbone of the army, veterans, and *** The starting troops of the division, including the loss of nearly one brigade under Liu Tiehan of the East Point, and the entire *** division system, three and a half brigades of troops, lost their combat effectiveness, were seriously injured, and had to be transferred back to the Huangyadong base area in the Taihang Mountains to rest.
On the other hand, the Japanese army lost more than 300,000 people and quickly increased its troops to more than 1.1 million. It also added a large number of technical arms. Its war mobilization ability made Tang Qiuli deeply alert. Japan had been planning for a long time, and the government It was a hasty response to the battle, and the quality of the soldiers alone was far behind. In addition to the units affiliated to the ** division, the weapons and equipment also lagged far behind Japan.
Coupled with the unparalleled appeal and inciting power of Emperor Hirohito, the Japanese people's fanatical militaristic ideas and samurai spirit, it is extremely easy for Japan to mobilize the whole country. In contrast to today's Republic of China, Chairman Chiang is known as the national leader. In fact, , the local powerful factions, all have their own secrets, each has his own little calculation, and they all want to take advantage of the situation. Not to mention the distant commander Yan of Shanxi, when he was fighting fiercely with the Japanese army. , and I didn¡¯t see him reaching out to help.
Tang Qiuli used the power of his family to fight against the power of Japan as a whole. He won a complete victory in the first battle. He took advantage of the fact that the Japanese did not understand his own details and took advantage of being surprised and unprepared. I am afraid that future battles will not be so easy to win.
Expanding the size of the army and establishing a force that can cope with several battlefields at the same time, as well as a large number of high-quality reserve forces, are the only things he can do. Now is the best time. He asked Chairman Chiang Kai-shek of Nanjing for instructions. In view of the current situation of the army The military strength has fallen far behind the Japanese army in North China, and the potential of soldiers in various parts of North China has been nearly exhausted. Our ministry plans to recruit new soldiers from all over the country to increase its strength to compete with the Japanese army.
The necessary funds and weapons and equipment can be solved by the Peking Army branch if the government does have practical difficulties. It¡¯s a joke. Recruiting troops in Chairman Chiang¡¯s territory is tantamount to poaching others. Without the old man¡¯s consent, how many people can you take away? It's Boss Dai and those guys who will make you feel sad.
He was too embarrassed to ask the old man to help and pay for these things. With the master's current financial situation, there was no problem at all.??He thought again and again, but did not mention it to Chairman Chiang, that Shanxi Chief Yan had at least 150,000 to 200,000 soldiers in addition to the 300,000 Jin troops.
But that was the territory of the traitor controlled by Chief Yan, and the country was iron-fortified. If anyone took a few glances at it, the old man would be able to draw a gun and point it at him. With Chairman Chiang¡¯s superb skills and ability to control wind and rain, even after thinking about it for several years, there was no way. After a quick kick, the Red Army finally had the opportunity to cross the Yellow River in its eastward expedition. Eight divisions of the Central Army hurriedly arrived at the ground in Shanxi, but were used by Chief Yan as thugs to fight with the Red Army. You were fighting to the death, but in the end you couldn't stand firm, and your hard work was in vain.
"I put food in his mouth. Let's not talk about Chief Yan's reaction. Isn't it obvious that he is trying to make things difficult for Chairman Chiang? Moreover, that guy was full of evil intentions, and his abacus was very sharp. If he accidentally got out of his way, he would wait for the Japanese to launch the next phase of their offensive and lure this Japanese wolf to his home. Menkou, ate his sheep, and took away his children. He should be anxious.
At that time, he couldn't help it. When he came to ask for help, it was not too late to raise conditions. Tang Qiuli's consideration was correct. Yan Xishan had not yet felt the immediate threat from the Japanese. With the North China Army's presence, With the front blocked, he was happy to watch the fun. As long as the Japanese didn't enter Shanxi, it didn't matter who he fought with, as long as he didn't touch a piece of my old man's firewood.
Chairman Chiang received Tang Qiuli's telegram requesting to recruit troops in the Jiangnan area, and knew that what he said was the truth. Dai Li's Military Control Bureau was also not idle. Information about the Japanese base camp's massive increase in troops to the North China battlefield was continuously sent to him. On the desk of Dai Li, this is of course the official business of Dai Li's Military Control Bureau, and it is also his repayment for Tang Qiuli's crucial letter, which saved him from being shot by Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng. There is an element of exaggeration. Inside, however, this was a great help to Tang Qiuli.
At the plenary meeting of the Military Committee, Chairman Chiang took out Tang Qiuli's telegram and asked for the opinions of the members of the Military Committee. Unexpectedly, there were a majority of those who opposed it. Their reason was that the number of troops currently under the command of Vice Chairman Tang was , already more than 1.5 million people, far exceeding the strength of the Japanese army in North China, and occupying the natural danger of the Yellow River, there is no need to increase the number of troops.
What's more, the locations of this recruitment are all in the mainland. Once implemented, it will have an impact on the potential of the mainland's military resources. In the future, if a large-scale war breaks out in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, it will be too late to replenish the current troops. Vice Chairman Tang's intentions ,Debatable?
I'm sorry, these important members of the Military Commission put the Jin troops of Yan Xishan in Shanxi and the Lu troops of Han Fuju in Shandong under the name of Tang Qiuli. In total, there are not as many as 1.5 million people. However, Chairman Chiang is as clear as a mirror. These military officials have their roots in the Jiangnan area. They all have their own direct troops. Tang Qiuli's conscription in Jiangnan is tantamount to touching their fundamental interests. .
There is also an indescribable little thought. Such a young Tang Qiuli's illustrious military exploits in North China made these military veterans who claimed to be military generals and had led the army for many years but had no brilliant achievements, feel in their hearts. He was jealous and eager for the opportunity to cause trouble. To be honest, he had doubts about Tang Qiuli's request. If it weren't for Dai Li's information, he would not have known the pressure Qiu Li was facing.
Tang Qiuli nominally led millions of troops. Chairman Chiang, who had always regarded military power as the basis for his foothold, was well aware of the three flavors. Tang Qiuli could command the troops of Yan Xishan and Han Fuju, but he could not use them. Those two people regarded soldiers as their lifeblood, and they were not willing to use their capital to occupy the territory to fight the Japanese.
The combat effectiveness of the former Northeastern Army and the 17th Route Army was also obvious. What Tang Qiuli could really use was the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Japanese Army. Facing more than one million Japanese troops, they were indeed unable to cope with it, so he proposed to recruit troops. The request was reasonable. If Tang Qiuli collapsed in North China, and the sight of more than one million Japanese troops marching south like locusts made Chairman Chiang shudder, his base in Jiangsu and Zhejiang would definitely be lost.
Therefore, in the face of the objections of the senior officials, Chairman Chiang took out Dai Li's intelligence. Dai Li's intelligence was very detailed. Even the strength of each Japanese regiment, the name of the commander, etc. were completely written on it, with numbers. The most convincing, all the officials were silent. They knew in their hearts what Chairman Chiang meant when he came out with this information. Now Tang Qiuli, in front of Chairman Chiang, would respond to every request. Sometimes, he would not ask for anything. If he took the initiative to give it, and then resorted to cross-fire, he would offend not only Tang Qiuli, but also Chairman Chiang.
After this meeting, the National Government Military Commission issued a general mobilization order to the whole country, calling on promising young people to join the army and fight against the Japanese army. This means that this is a national war mobilization in the face of unprecedented pressure from Japan.
The telegram to Tang Qiuli was written by Chairman Chiang himself, "Qiu Li, I am fully aware of your situation. The North China War??, it is tied to you and is of great importance. All units are not allowed to recruit new soldiers now. Priority is given to the North China Army Division. As for the required military expenses and equipment, I order the Minister of Finance Song Ziwen and the Minister of Military and Political Affairs Chen Cheng to first pay 250,000 yuan. People need to prepare, but they can rest assured that the central government will fully support it, Chiang Kai-shek. "
As a result, there was a wave of enthusiasm for joining the army all over the country.
