    "According to your opinion, this Wang Geng is the one who is willing to be friendly with the Empire of Japan?" The Prime Minister's thoughts became more and more vivid!

    "My lord, please don't forget that there is a slogan within Wang Geng's participating army, which is to drive the old Maozi and the little devils out of China! This little devil refers to us, Japan!" Army Minister Oshima obviously has a good memory.  , and found out another reason for his objection!

    "Oshima-kun, this is understandable. If the Chinese occupied the Seto Inland Sea and Kyushu, you would shout such slogans! This is understandable!" Temple is obviously not a fuel-efficient lamp. Patriots are worth it wherever they go.  Respect, not to mention that the prime minister¡¯s grandson has just been saved from pneumonia caused by influenza with penicillin. This guy¡¯s personal impression of Wang Geng is not bad.

    "Your Excellency Prime Minister, my judgment is that Wang Geng has no fixed prejudices. As long as his bottom line is not violated, it is easy for anyone to be friends with him. But if you step on his tail, you are Duan Qi.  Rui's intercession may not work!

    Although his combat troops shot several troublesome soldiers of the 12th Division in Vladivostok, according to our intelligence, the discipline of this guy's troops does not distinguish between Japanese troops and Chinese troops, as long as they commit a crime  His articles of association will be shot to death if his relatives don't agree with him!  "

    "Of course, he also has a softer side. For example, this afternoon, Lin Kwonsuke sent troops to Vladivostok to ask him to borrow some penicillin. He asked the Chinese troops stationed in Vladivostok to allocate 1,000 penicillins to Shibagoro's military medical team, completely free of charge.  "Hirano obviously has a lot of information channels, and the Banxi Mansion is responsible for this.

    In fact, since China and Japan reached two loan agreements and Japanese contractors undertook the construction of the railway and highway projects in Suiyuan and Outer Mongolia, Lin Quanzhu and Hirano were regarded as agents of the Chinese by the Japanese government and the public.  , is also the scapegoat for the temple cabinet¡¯s appeasement policy towards China!

    ¡°What an interesting guy, but it¡¯s also a headache!¡± Temple scratched his head, obviously he couldn¡¯t figure out how to deal with Wang Geng, a guy who defies heaven.

    "Prime Minister! Don't be blinded by sugar-coated bullets. China and Japan will have a war sooner or later, and warm sentiments can kill people!" The Minister of War was obviously unwilling to accept that the situation in the meeting was gradually tilting towards the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

    "Well, Mr. Oshima, what if we fall out with the Chinese in Manchuria or Vladivostok? Is the Army sure of winning? Didn't the intelligence say that all the Chinese troops went to Khabarovsk, and the ones who stayed in Vladivostok  There is only one brigade, and the troops in Jilin and Fengtian are not elite. Do you have the confidence that we can stab Wang Geng in the back and fulfill your and the Army Ministry¡¯s wishes?¡±

    Terauchi Masaki was annoyed by Oshima Kenichi¡¯s nonsense. At this time, he turned around and said to his Army Minister, half truthfully.

    "Uh Prime Minister, the recent war games conducted by the Army Department are all targeting operations in the Far East and Siberia. If we are to take action against China, we need to reschedule and review the action plan!" The Minister of the Army's eyes lit up when he heard this.  , and then it turned out to be a bit anticlimactic!

    "Okay, I'm going to ask you to come up with a plan for the action against China now. Can Vladivostok be taken down? Can Fengtian be taken down? How many troops will be mobilized, how much time will it take, and can it be held after it is taken down? Can the Japanese Air Force  How many aircraft and artillery do we have to resist the Chinese air force? What preparations are there for logistical support?"

    The Prime Minister¡¯s endless questions in the temple made the Minister of War lose his temper. He was dumbfounded and dumbfounded, and finally found that he could not give the correct answer to any question.

    "Can't you tell me? You, Oshima, are incompetent as Minister of War. There is only one brigade of the Chinese Army in Vladivostok, but I dare say that Shibagoro's crippled 12th Division may not be able to win. The firepower and military strength  Morale and even the quality of the individual soldiers are at a disadvantage. Don¡¯t expect naval gunfire to help. The Chinese have air force support on the ground. Do you think you can win? If you win, I will order to break up with the Chinese now!¡±

    General Masaki Teuchi raised his own army as Minister of War!

    "Although we do not have an advantage in terms of machine gun and artillery firepower, the quality of individual soldiers of the Chinese combatants is definitely no match for the Imperial Army! I have enough confidence in this!" Ken Oshima finally grasped a life-saving straw with a quick glance!

    "Oshima-kun, you are wrong again. Although the Chinese participating army was quickly trained and organized within a year, the brigade in Vladivostok and the 49th mixed brigade under the brigade commander Zhang Zhijiang were not formed from the second division.  The establishment allocated it to the past!

    The predecessor of that team was the 16th Mixed Brigade. The fighting and stabbing abilities of the soldiers were almost the strongest in China. That Zhang Zhijiang was also a martial arts master at the level of China's swordsman!  Shibagoro's division may not be his opponent!  "

    Hirano is not around at the momentDon't forget to disgust the Minister of War!  This guy is really unqualified if he doesn't engage in intelligence work.

    "Uh! The Emperor's people will never be easily frightened. As long as the Prime Minister dares to give the order, I dare to let Shiba Goro's Vladivostok dispatched troops to destroy Zhang Zhijiang's mixed brigade!" Oshima shouted unconvinced.

    "Take down Oshima! The Imperial Army is not here to squander or act on your whims. It's better to face reality and look at the next course of action!"

    Terauchi interrupted the war minister's desperate howl and brought the topic back to reality. Obviously, after being fooled by Hirano, Terauchi had made up his mind to avoid a showdown with the Chinese when serving in this cabinet.  And, otherwise it will be really impossible to deal with!

    "Hirano, you haven't finished what you just said. What strategy will the Imperial Army adopt in the Far East to reverse the current unfavorable situation?" Terauchi now felt that Hirano was a bit like Zhuge Liang, so he turned his hopes to his foreign minister.

    "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, in my opinion, the Imperial Army should either operate under the unified dispatch of the Chinese participating armies, so that all aspects of logistics support will be smooth, and no one will be doubted, and no one will be doubted when employed. If you are always on guard, you will regard yourself as a guest army.  , I¡¯m afraid there will be messy conflicts in the future, and we don¡¯t have the conditions for internal strife with the participating armies in the Far East right now!¡±

    Hirano¡¯s idea was a bit beyond the expectations of Teruchi and Oshima.

    "Hirano! Are you saying that our majestic Imperial Army actually handed over its command and used it as cannon fodder for the Chinese Army?" The Minister of Army was a little angry!

    "Hirano, there is no precedent for this. The Imperial Army has its own dignity. Do you really intend to let the Chinese command the Japanese army?" Terauchi also couldn't believe his ears.

    "Prime Minister, Oshima-kun, as the saying goes, those who understand current affairs are heroes. Wang Geng is not hostile to our Japanese army, but if we always regard the Chinese combat troops as our enemies, we will achieve nothing in the Far East and Siberia. The Trans-Siberian Railway is completely  In the area designated for the operations of the Chinese participating troops, if the railway is lost, should we use dog sleds to ensure the logistics and supplies of the troops? "

    Hirano's words are actually more pragmatic. There are no roads and no railways in that barren place north of the Waixing'an Mountains. If the Japanese divisions marched on foot in the ice and snow, not to mention the millions of old men, they would have to walk thousands of miles.  You have to work hard for kilometers!

    "Why didn't you say this when you were negotiating with the Chinese early in the morning? Now that things have come to a head, you have come up with the idea of ??handing over the Imperial Army to the command of the Chinese? If this word spreads, the whole world will laugh at our Japanese Army!"  Oshima completely lost his temper and just kept spitting and yelling!

    "Hirano-kun, you have to be considerate of the mood of the soldiers. The last time the Japanese army was commanded was during the Boxer Fist Rebellion. I'm afraid your plan will cause an uproar in the country!" Masaki Terauchi frowned.  His brows were weighing the pros and cons of this matter.

    The advantages are obvious. The logistical support of the Chinese participating armies and the use of the Trans-Siberian Railway are all natural. The disadvantage is that the Japanese Army is used to being arrogant and arrogant. It is suddenly unified under the command of the Chinese who have never looked down on it. This thing sounds like a fantasy.  Night story!
