    "That's it" Wang Jingwei thought for a moment: "How many people do you plan to use?" "A front army!" "Whoa" Wang Jingwei took a breath, "A front army?" "That's right." Zhou Fohai suddenly said  Nodding, "Chongqing has fought several vicious battles with the Japanese recently, and has taken a lot of advantages. Chiang Zhongzheng's reputation has greatly increased. The prestige of our Nanjing National Government has been greatly harmed.  Coupled with the assassination in Shanghai Sir, we must make our voices heard and let people know how powerful the Nanjing government is!" "Why don't I want to?" Wang Jingwei smiled bitterly.  How could he not know that Chongqing's prestige had skyrocketed after those battles with the Japanese?  Many people who had originally intended to join them are now swaying again, and many are even leaning towards Chongqing again.  There is no way, if Chongqing can really rival the Japanese, who would want to bear the reputation of a "traitor"?  Even he might have given up his original plan if he had heard the news before defecting.  Five or six divisions, nearly 100,000 people. Many Japanese still cannot accept such losses.  But now it's too late.  Others can still come and seek refuge again, but he has no room for change.  "Sir, are you worried about a bad start?" Zhou Fohai looked at Wang Jingwei's face and asked again.  "After all, the 'Peaceful Rescue' is just the first establishment. Although it has a large number of people, it is probably still far behind Chiang Kai-shek's Central Army in terms of combat effectiveness. How could I not attack one of his major battle zones like this?  Worried?" Wang Jingwei shook his head and sighed.  "So, we can ask the Japanese to send a force to assist." Zhou Fohai said: "It doesn't need to be more. The strength of a brigade should be enough." "Don't talk about a brigade, I think a regiment of Terauchi Juichi is probably  I won't agree." Wang Jingwei shook his head again, "They have suffered heavy losses recently, and they still need to ask for more troops from Tokyo." "In that case, let's do it ourselves."  We don't have to be divided by the Japanese, and we don't have to give our troops any advice." "Have you really decided?" Wang Jingwei thought that after saying so much, Zhou Fohai would think about it again, but he didn't expect it.  This guy actually still wanted to fight: "You have to think clearly. This is a front army. Once there is a problem, even if there is nothing wrong with me, I am afraid you will not explain it to the Japanese." "Sir, I am wrong.  If you listen, the Nanjing government should be the highest political power in China, right?" Zhou Fohai suddenly asked.  "Of course." "Since it is the supreme political power, it is natural that the military and government should take control. But look. Where is our real jurisdiction? Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui! It's just three provinces, and that's not all!" Zhou Fohai said angrily: "Japan  They handed over all the troops in North China to Qi Xieyuan, but they didn't let us get involved. They obviously wanted to divide and conquer us. " "Stop talking," Wang Jingwei waved his hands impatiently. He didn't want to hear this.  "It's my fault." Zhou Fohai knew that he had touched Wang Jingwei's pain point This was actually the pain point for all of them.  I always thought that I had betrayed Chongqing.  If you surrender to the Japanese, you can gain the highest power in the country, and then replace it with Chiang Kai-shek and others with the "help" of the Japanese.  Then use the power of the Japanese to unify all of China.  Then wait, wait, wait.  Although the Japanese will definitely gain a lot of benefits from this, China's interests will also suffer considerable losses.  But this is better than killing people everywhere, right?  This is "curve to save the country"!  Anyway, China has been in ruins for many years, and there is not much left to lose.  But they didn't expect that after the Japanese deceived them, they turned their backs and added layer upon layer of the original conditions. They simply wanted to swallow China alive.  But do they still have room for maneuver?  Gone!  None at all.  They are different from people like Gao Zongwu and Tao Xisheng, they are like little shrimps.  No one cares.  But if they do anything wrong again, they will be seeking death.  The Japanese will not let them go, and Chongqing will still regard them as traitors. Their final outcome.  The only possibility is to be put under house arrest for life.  But just keep being a puppet for the Japanese?  Zhou Fohai didn't think Wang Jingwei would give up just like that.  How many times does a fish have to jump out of the water, let alone a human?  "Sir, now is a good opportunity The Japanese were defeated one after another, losing nearly 100,000 people, and their control over various places is no longer as stable as before. The same is true for Chongqing. They wiped out 100,000 Japanese, and at least they themselves  We have to pay three to four hundred thousand. The strength of both sides has been severely weakened. If we attack at this time, we will definitely succeed." "Then have you thought about what we will lose if we go wrong?  Wang Jingwei asked rhetorically.  "Re-damageIf it is lost, how can it be worse than now?  Zhou Fohai laughed miserably, "Moreover, even if we fail, what can the Japanese do to us?"  Can they still withdraw us?  " "You are quite reasonable.  "Wang Jingwei smiled bitterly. What else can the Japanese do to them? Since he signed various treaties with the Japanese, he has sold everything he can. Therefore, even if the Japanese are dissatisfied with them now, it is impossible to do anything to them.  So. At least not in the short term. But having said that, when he thought about the scale of Zhou Fohai's operation, his heart beat a little: "Would it be too much to directly use one front army?  " "Sir, if you want to fight, you have to fight a big one.  "Zhou Fohai could see that Wang Jingwei had moved, and quickly added fuel to the fire: "It's too small, no matter whether we win or lose, the Japanese don't care, and Chongqing won't care either, and we can't show our strength.  And now that the Japanese and Chongqing have just experienced a war, it is an opportunity for weakness. The military commander in southern Anhui has just changed, and we have not had time to familiarize ourselves with the command If we can take the opportunity to win a battle, how can the Japanese dare to underestimate us in the future?  Look at us?  Only those generals who "peacefully save Japan" will obey you.  " "Then what if the Japanese ask about it?  "Wang Jingwei was really tempted. He was a civil servant and had never been very involved in the military. The main figures under him, such as Chen Gongbo and Zhou Fohai, were also civil servants. Therefore, although he formed the so-called "Peace Rescue*  *", but this army has always been at the disposal of the Japanese. He has repeatedly tried to take back the command of this army, but always failed. And the reason for this phenomenon, in his opinion, is nothing more than  Those soldiers looked down on him as a weakling If he had been a soldier and fought in the war like Chiang Kai-shek, how could those people dare to do this? And if he could get the real support of those troops, he would never face the Japanese in the future.  Even if it is Chiang Kai-shek, he will have a lot of confidence. "If the Japanese ask, we will tell them directly" Zhou Fohai sneered, "They have suffered huge losses in these battles, and I am afraid that we can help them share the burden.**  pressure.  " "Are you sure?  "Wang Jingwei suddenly felt worried again. He is a scholar after all. The so-called "a scholar's rebellion will not happen in three years" is because of nothing else but looking forward and backward and thinking too much. Zhou Fohai's plan is indeed quite tempting. If it succeeds, it should make people happy.  People are impressed, but what if they fail? Although the Japanese can't do anything to them, they can only blame the frontline generals, but he will inevitably be looked down upon. "Don't worry, I plan to start with this time.  Pang Bingxun and Sun Dianying near Zhengzhou, as well as Hu Yukun's "Su-Wan Border Area Appeasement Army", contained and confused the enemy in Henan and northern Anhui. Tang Mang was the commander-in-chief of the former enemy, leading most of Sun Liangcheng's Second Front Army, and  The Third Army of Fujian" "Sun Liangcheng is in Yangzhou, right?  Wang Jingwei suddenly asked: "Send him to southern Anhui?"  Doesn¡¯t that mean we have to cross the river?  " "Exactly.  Zhou Fohai smiled and said: "Once Sun Liangcheng crosses the river, our power in the south of the Yangtze River will greatly increase, and the Yangzhou area is already rich. Wouldn't the free space be used to raise another army?"  " "Will the Japanese agree?  " "The Japanese suffered major defeats in recent times at the hands of Chiang Kai-shek's Ninth War Zone.  Sun Liangcheng had more than 10,000 men under his command, whose combat effectiveness was not inferior to that of the Central Army. After he came over to join the army, he massively expanded his army. Now it has a strength of 30,000 to 40,000 people. Crossing the river was just the right time to help them. Why should they not agree?  " "That's fine.  Wang Jingwei thought for a moment and nodded, "What about Tang Mang?"  Didn't he always claim to be sick at home?  Will he be willing to step forward and command the attack on southern Anhui?  " "Hehe," Zhou Fohai laughed evilly, "Of course Tang Mang still claimed to be ill, and Chongqing's position towards him has always been very clear.  But it is precisely because of this that I regard him as the commander-in-chief this time.  Do you think Shangguan Yunxiang would care if such a reluctant man was allowed to command all the troops and be the commander-in-chief of this operation?  "    "Understood.  Do you want to use Tang Mang's name to confuse the other party?  "Wang Jingwei smiled. "I really feel sorry for Old Tang, but if you want to succeed in the battle, you must use all means.  "Zhou Fohai sighed. "If you win by then, you have to make more amends to others.  "Wang Jingwei also said. Tang Mang was a veteran of the Republic of China. He had the same seniority as Cheng Qian, the commander of the First War Zone under Chiang Kai-shek, and others. He was forced out of the mountain by Zhou Fohai with his fellow countrymen's friendship, and he reluctantly served as the "peace rescuer"  *" Commander-in-Chief and Commander of the Third Group Army. However, since taking the title, Tang Mang has been claiming to be ill at home. This time Zhou Fohai once again used his name to confuse Shangguan Yunxiang, which may make Tang Mang very angry. But  Having said that, under the general situation, how can we not allow him to resist? "I must apologize, but I estimate that regardless of victory or defeat, Old Tang will probably resign. Sir, you must stay."?.  "Zhou Fohai said again. "That's natural.  "Wang Jingwei replied. "Then I will find someone to prepare a specific action plan?  "Zhou Fohaidao. "By the way, call me Yingzuo Zhenzhao Sun Liangcheng's Second Front Army is in Yangzhou. If you want to go to southern Anhui, you have to cross the river.  This matter still needs to be discussed with the Japanese.  "Wang Jingwei said. "Yes.  "(To be continued)
