    Regarding Prince Zai Ren, seeing that the situation was not good, he wanted to withdraw from the battlefield in the Far East and took action. Tang Qiuli was not surprised. He directly directed the corps to take the direction of North Manchuria. The intention of the troops to point to the Far East was fully exposed to Zai Ren.  With his cunning and intelligence, he will naturally be alert.

    In Tang Qiuli's view, if the Japanese Far East Expeditionary Force commanded by Zai Ren does not withdraw to the Northeast and avoid the fate of being surrounded by the East Command and the Directly Affiliated Corps in the Far East, they can only take two routes. One is Kamchatka.  The peninsula, and the second is Sakhalin Island. No matter which of these two routes, we will eventually have to take the sea route and retreat to the Japanese mainland.

    Based on this judgment, in order to reduce the pressure on the direct-affiliated corps to make circuitous maneuvers, Tang Qiuli thought of deploying a naval squadron including two aircraft carriers to blockade the Strait of Okhotsk and the waters of the South Kuril Islands, cutting off Japan from the sea.  The Far East Expedition Army's final retreat, but after thinking about it again and again, gave up this idea.

    There are many factors that need to be taken into consideration. If a squadron of the Navy enters the Sea of ??Japan and the Sea of ??Okhotsk, it will inevitably trigger an all-out counterattack by the Japanese Navy. As far as the current naval strength of the independent division is concerned, it does not have the same capabilities as the Japanese Navy.  The ability to conduct an all-out decisive battle, and to allow the Japanese and Americans to engage in land, sea and air power duel in the Australian battlefield and the East Pacific Ocean, is the core content of their strategic vision.

    Now it seems that the goal has been basically achieved. On the Australian battlefield, the Japanese Southwest Pacific Troops and the Allied Forces were fighting inextricably. The Japanese army was doing its best to defeat the Allied forces. The Allied forces held a corner of southwest Australia for defense.  .  Overall, the Japanese army had the upper hand and ended the war at a distance.  It would still take quite a while, but the final result would be that the Allies would be defeated. Tang Qiuli had already seen this.

    In the eastern Pacific Ocean, the Japanese naval combined fleet commanded by General Yamamoto Goto and the newly formed Pacific Fleet of the United States fought to a bloody battle.  The Japanese navy still had the upper hand. This was an excellent opportunity to consume the strength of the Japanese and American navies, but Tang Qiuli didn't want to do that.  Because I have a squadron.  Entering Japan's backyard, and attracting the attention of the Japanese navy to himself, led to the Pacific battlefield.  The advantages of the Japanese and Allied forces on the battlefield were reversed.  It is also inconsistent with my long-term strategic plan.

    Since the naval fleet cannot be used, we can only make the directly-affiliated regiments work harder. That's why the telegram to Liu Tiehan asked the directly-affiliated regiments to make roundabout and faster orders.

    After arriving in Jinzhou, although it was not far from the front line of the Liaoxi battlefield, there were dedicated generals in charge of each battlefield, and the troops were undergoing battlefield rest.  Tang Qiuli's teacher didn't seem to be busy dealing with anything urgent.  He actually had the feeling of a idler, which was very different from a few months ago when the campaign to recapture the Northeast began.

    After the combat missions of each war zone and each corps were clarified, commanders at all levels carried out preparations for the war in an orderly manner according to the orders. Suddenly, Tang Qiuli felt that he had nothing to do, so he simply opened his mind and led  With three wives, under the protection of a group of special guards, even the mountain tigers were not allowed to follow them, and they visited the scenic spots around Jinzhou. Today they will climb mountains and look into the distance, and tomorrow they will explore the ancient times, such as Bijia Mountain and Yiwulu Mountain.  , Bei Putuo Mountain, Cuiyan Mountain and other places, all left their footsteps.

    The land in the Northeast is dense with clouds of war, and a decisive battle to regain the Northeast is about to begin. Tang Qiuli is just like a normal person, spending all day traveling around the mountains and rivers. However, no one is making irresponsible remarks behind his back. The independent division is the number one leader.  He always behaves differently, but after walking around for three or four days, Mei Ting vaguely persuaded him that it was time to calm down and return to the headquarters to take charge, but Tang Qiuli smiled indifferently and remained the same.

    On this day, a group of people had just returned from a visit to Qingyan Temple to enjoy the autumn scenery. As soon as they walked into the gate of the headquarters, they saw Ge Zhenzhuang, director of the division's staff, standing at the door waiting anxiously. Tang Qiuli smiled at him  Mei Ting said: "Sister Ting, look at Director Ge's anxious look. There must be something that needs me to deal with. You don't need to persuade me. I won't have time to accompany you tomorrow!"

    Mei Ting smiled and did not take her husband's words seriously. Originally, thousands of troops and horses gathered in the Northeast. It would be better for him, the division commander, to give up on everything and accompany his wives to enjoy the mountains and rivers. If this is known to the warriors below,  , how bad the impact must be!

    Mei Xue was not very happy. She poked Liu Xinlan and signaled her to speak. Liu Xinlan blushed and said, "Didn't you promise us to go to Fengguo Temple in Yixian County tomorrow?"

    Tang Qiuli looked at Liu Xinlan's rosy little face and said solemnly: "State affairs are the most important thing! Xinlan, these words were not your idea, were they? How about asking Shan Hu to accompany you tomorrow?" With that, he glanced at  Mei Xue, who was snickering next to her.

    Mei Ting came to the rescue: "Okay Qiu Li, you have something important to deal with. Anyway, Fengguo Temple is right there, and you can't run away. It makes a difference when you go!"

     "Sister Ting is the one who knows me!" Tang Qiuli's flattering compliment earned Mei Xue and Liu Xinlan angry looks, and the three women left chatting and laughing.

    Tang Qiuli saw that Ge Zhenzhuang had seen him but had not come over. Knowing what was going on, he waved and shouted: "Director Ge, what are you waiting for me? Is there any new move by the Kwantung Army?"  "Probably only this kind of thing would make Ge Zhenzhuang anxiously waiting for him at the door.

    Ge Zhenzhuang hurried over, raised his hands in salute, and said: "Commander, this is not a matter of the Kwantung Army, but a telegram from the Germans. The German Ambassador to China, Thomas Todmann, sent you a special diplomatic letter through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chongqing National Government!  "

    "Germans?" Tang Qiuli asked in disbelief with his eyes widened. He was very surprised. What kind of telegram did the Germans send to him for no reason? Ambassador Todman was no stranger to him. This was his first time.  The visit to Germany was facilitated by this person. To be fair, Tang Qiuli had a very good impression of the German Ambassador to China, Traudemann, but they had not contacted him for a long time. It was strange to send him a telegram out of the blue.

    "What did the Germans say in the telegram?" Tang Qiuli asked while thinking about it.

    Ge Zhenzhuang replied: "The German Ambassador to China, Todmann, at the request of the Japanese Ambassador to Germany, Mizuno Kenji, sent a message to the Japanese. The Japanese government requested to negotiate with you on the situation in Manchuria! If you agree to negotiate with the Japanese  Negotiation, please call Todman back as soon as possible!¡±

    "Hahaha! The Japanese want to negotiate, at this time?" Tang Qiuli shook his head and laughed as if he had heard the most ridiculous thing in the world.

    Ge Zhenzhuang started laughing. Wuran was an officer in the Independent Division. Even an ordinary soldier couldn't help laughing when he heard the news. Isn't it too funny? The Independent Division has more than one million troops.  They were gearing up and working hard, preparing to eat the encircled Japanese Kwantung Army in one bite. At this juncture, the Japanese wanted to come to negotiate. It was so damn whimsical!

    "Commander, do you want to call Todman back? The two sides are sworn enemies and there is no possibility of negotiation! There is no room for negotiation. Let Todman tell the Japanese that if you give up your heart, don't play tricks or have any whims.  "Ge Zhenzhuang suggested. He felt that the Japanese from top to bottom, including that shitty emperor, must have been kicked in the head by a donkey. Otherwise, how could they come up with such a ridiculous trick?

    "No!" Tang Qiuli smiled slyly and said, "Call Tao Deman back. Since the Japanese want to negotiate and we are not militants, let me see the sincerity of the Japanese and what bargaining chips they offer.  Is it enough to make me excited?"

    Ge Zhenzhuang reminded: "Commander, the war is imminent, and the overall goal of recovering Northeast China has been determined. Is it necessary to talk nonsense to the Japanese? Just refuse it directly!"

    Tang Qiuli said with a smile: "Director Ge, don't you think that since we arrived in Jinzhou, you and I, as well as a large group of staff officers under the command of the division, have nothing to do? Anyway, our army's battle is  The preparations are going on normally, so there is no need for the teacher to worry about it. Anyway, it¡¯s good to see the bezoars in the Japanese¡¯s belly! They can also negotiate with each other, these are two different things!¡±

    Ge Zhenzhuang was completely speechless, confused, and a little aggrieved. He argued: "Division commander, although the division commander does not directly intervene in the specific command of the major battlefields in the Far East, Northeast and Korean Peninsula, as the division commander organization, daily battlefield briefings, enemy situation trends,  Telegrams are also coming in about troop deployment adjustments and logistical supplies, and the staff office is extremely busy.¡±

    At this point, Ge Zhenzhuang suddenly stopped. This is all the specific work of the staff office. It seems that it really has nothing to do with the division commander. There is indeed no problem that requires the division commander to be busy. The key to the problem is that you are idle, but the staff office cannot be idle.  Stay!  The division's various departments must not be idle!

    But Ge Zhenzhuang couldn't say this, so he had no choice but to say: "It's the division commander. I will immediately ask the Communications Department to send a telegram back to the German Ambassador to China Todmann to explain your attitude!"

    Seeing Ge Zhenzhuang reluctantly leaving, Tang Qiuli said with a playful smile, "This Tao Deman, through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chongqing National Government, such a telegram came, yes, far away  The Nationalist Government and Chairman Chiang Kai-shek in Southwest Chongqing should not sleep well again!¡±

    If the German Ambassador to China, Todd Mann, had not gone through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chongqing National Government, but had contacted Tang Qiuli privately when he sent the telegram to Tang Qiuli that the Japanese wanted to negotiate, there would have been no trouble. Todd  There were personal channels of communication between Man and Tang Qiuli, and radio communication was always open.

    "However, the Germans' mechanical and rigid attitude, as well as their serious attitude towards doing things, made Todman choose the formal diplomatic channel. This veteran??Diplomats believe that this is a matter between two countries and must go through normal channels.
