,

spn Hanking, the base camp of the Republic.

A Lieutenant General of the Army of the Republic wearing a lieutenant general uniform came to Zhang Shusheng's office, led by Lu Yunyan, the confidential secretary-general of the Head of State's Office.

"General Zhu, go in, the chairman is already waiting for you." Lu Yunyan said with a slight smile.

The lieutenant general raised his hand and saluted: "Yes, ma'am."

He respected not only the head of state’s wife, but also the principal’s wife who had always taken good care of them, the leaders of the early Chinese Military Academy.[

Because he is out with troops all year round, the commander of the Shenyang Garrison District under the Northeast Garrison District of the National Defense Forces, the commander of the 15th Army Group of the National Defense Forces, Army Lieutenant General Zhu Chi, does not have many opportunities to meet the Chairman and his two wives. Thousands of miles away, military affairs were heavy, and he rarely had time to even attend the annual New Year's Eve banquet.

He still remembers that back then, the Huaxia Military Academy was still a start-up and the conditions were difficult. As a poor student from Xiushui, Jiangxi Province, he not only felt the warmth of family in this new military academy, but also learned from the then principal and now the chairman of the committee. I felt the same warmth of family members with the two ladies.

As a child of an extremely poor peasant family, not only was he able to study for free, but he was able to successfully join the army and lead soldiers, and he was able to advance all the way. He was extremely grateful to the Chairman's family. Not to mention, as an outstanding student, he also received a hand-knitted gift from two ladies. Sweaters given to outstanding students.

He kept that sweater and was reluctant to wear it.

Years of military career have already tempered Zhu Chi into a first-class outstanding military commander of the Republic. Due to his excellent leadership of troops, successful training of troops, and superhuman combat thinking, his subordinates have even led many famous soldiers throughout the army. Tie Jun, the fifth batch graduate of the Chinese Military Academy, Zhu Chi, the commander of the 15th Division of the Tenth Army just after the War of Liberation, is now also a leading lieutenant general in the National Defense Forces.

"Dongkou Dongdong!"

"Come in." When Zhu Chi opened the door, Zhang Shusheng was looking up from the documents on the table.

"The Chairman is always so busy." Zhu Chi couldn't help but secretly thought. Everyone in the Republic knows that the Chairman is a pragmatic head of state. He not only has to deal with complicated military, government and party affairs, but also personally participates in various scientific researches. If he were not the Chairman He also has outstanding abilities in military, strategic and other aspects, and others will definitely think of him as a scholar-type head of state.

"Principal, you should pay attention to your health. When I was in Shenyang, I heard that Chairman, you often work overtime and stay up late, which is not good for your health." Zhu Chiping stood there dragging his military cap, feeling slightly nervous. His posture is even more upright. In this country, only the Chairman and the two wives make him feel nervous. It is not because he is afraid, but because he is afraid of being rude in front of them. Because he cares, he is cautious.

Standing in front of the chairman, he would always think of the time when he listened to the chairman's lectures and received the chairman's personal commendation at the graduation ceremony. After so many years, these memories have never faded.

Zhang Shusheng shook his head and motioned for him to sit down. At this time, Mao Yun came in first and brought a pot of Sichuan green tea. After pouring the tea, he went out.

The two continued to talk about military affairs.

"It's not easy for you to come all the way back. If there hadn't been a transport plane from Hanking to Northeast China, you would have suffered a lot more." Zhang Shusheng lamented that today's transportation is still not as good as that of later generations. In later generations, although most people in the country Everyone is criticizing, but the establishment of high-speed rail and high-speed trains, no matter how well they are done, has really made travel easier. Of course, cheaper air tickets that will become more common in the future will also make it easier for people to travel long distances.

"Yeah, I just got the glory of official business. When I sat down on this transport plane, although my bones were almost falling apart, it was quite fast. However, I heard that the direct flight from Northeast China to Hanking will be opened soon. , then the transportation will be better." Zhu Chi, who is far away in the Northeast, knows very well how far the Northeast is, and even how far the Far East is. Although there is a full railway, the distance is still too far.

"Yes, the route between Hanking and Shenyang will be opened later this year. The aircraft model selected is Airbus's third-generation aircraft, an Airbus 1942-style 80-seat passenger aircraft. Its resting performance is excellent. 』, more consideration has been given to the silent design and the comfort of the passenger aircraft. It is considered an excellent civilian passenger aircraft. You can also try it in the future, haha.”

Zhang Shusheng couldn't help but smile when he thought of the current development of civil aviation. Although due to the war, production and research and development have to focus on military affairs, China's actual ranking has surpassed the United States as the world's number one manufacturing capability. Building some passenger planes is just a piece of cake.

After all, more than thirty years of painstaking development has not been in vain. Comprehensive industrialization has brought tremendous results.

The two talked a few more words about domestic affairs, and then the topic turned to the focus of Zhu Chi's return to Beijing, the North Korean issue.

"Chairman of the Generalissimo, in fact, even if there was no intelligence issued this time, I would have reported the North Korean issue to the base camp." As the commander of the Shenyang Military Region and the commander of the Third Army, the reason why Zhu Chi did not go north to participate in the Sino-Soviet War was because From beginning to end, it was intended to deter North Korea.[

Although the 15th Infantry Group Army is just an inconspicuous infantry group army, only the Chinese and Japanese know that this main force of the Shenyang Military Region, known as the 15th Infantry Group Army, is actually a highly mobile motorcycle force. Although the chemical infantry group is positioned for large-scale battles in North Korea, it is of little significance to equip a large number of armored weapons and equipment. However, the truck ratio of this group is very high, and small armored vehicles are also equipped at the division level. Generally speaking, this group army has strong maneuverability, fierce firepower, and a high degree of automation of individual weapons. Compared with the opposite troops-the third-rate recruit troops of the Japanese Army and the newly formed more than 20,000 Korean People's Army, it is really armed to the teeth. seams.

"According to the confessions of several deserters captured by our border guards, the Korean People's Army is vigorously promoting the threat theory of "China", and according to the confession of one of the staff members who has reached the rank of colonel in the Korean People's Army, Japan and North Korea declared Korean independence. , will implement a series of anti-Japanese policies to consolidate North Korea and stabilize [Japanese] interests in North Korea." Zhu Chi said angrily with fire in his eyes.

Zhang Shusheng nodded, "Yes, if Japan wants to win over North Korea and make North Korea obedient, it can only make us a symbol of evil. Let the North Koreans keep their guns pointed at us. In this way, they must go deep Relying on the Japanese people, they changed from being oppressed and occupied in the past to their current status as servants, actively keeping up with the pace of the war in Japan.

The Japanese wanted to create an enemy for North Korea and completely eliminate the possibility of North Korea turning to us. To this end, they did not hesitate to take extraordinary risks.

Although we don't know their exact actions, I firmly believe that with absolute armed force, we have absolute offensive and defensive capabilities.

The reason I want you to come back this time is to have a good talk with you about the North Korean issue. After you go back, you can unify your thoughts and be ready to counter any possible provocation from Japan or North Korea at any time.

During this period, all the weapons and equipment that should be supplemented will be allocated to Jinzhou's air force, and part of them will go up to support you. This will create an absolute advantage over the Japanese army in northern Korea.

"Chairman, don't worry. As long as I, Zhu Chi, are in Shenyang, I will never give the [Japanese] people any chance to take advantage of it. We, the Shenyang Garrison Area and the Second Army Group, will resolutely fight back against any provocation." Although Zhu Chi Leaving Shenyang to go south, but it is not just a matter of hands. "At present, we have secretly deployed a considerable number of troops to patrol the Yalu River area. The patrol troops uniformly ride in armored vehicles and come and go quickly. Before leaving Shenyang, our air force maintained a 24-hour Hours on alert, the radar is on 24 hours a day, and the patrol fleet in the guard area also actively joins in to protect the fishermen." According to the Sino-Japanese agreement, the Yalu River is equally divided between the two countries, with the middle line as the national border, and the fishermen of each country can fully 〖Freedom〗Sail freely on their respective sides.

Zhang Shusheng walked up to Zhu Chi, patted him on the shoulder and dusted him, "You don't have to worry too much. Currently, the Special Intelligence Department has agents conducting in-depth activities on the Korean side of the Yalu River, and the Korean agents we trained have already joined. This Korean People's Army has certain powers. If there is any trouble, you will have a certain amount of time to react.

I have only one request. Follow my orders without any hesitation. If the base camp doesn’t tell you to stop, you will ruthlessly retaliate against the Japanese and the Koreans. Do not have any scruples.

The agreement between the Axis powers is just a piece of waste paper. I hope you, the frontier generals, must remember this. The highest honor of the National Defense Forces is always to protect the motherland. Everything else should be put aside."

Zhu Chi nodded seriously, raised his head, looked at the principal he admired most, and asked, "Principal, I will remember that this time, the Japanese and the Korean devils will not move. Once they do, we will Give them an absolute counterattack, fast, lightning, and thunderous blows.

I assure you that it will only take a week at most for the Shenyang Military Region to secretly mobilize, and it will only take half a month for us to form cross-border combat capabilities." "Well, I believe you, if this battle is fought well. "Next time, I will dispatch your 15th Army to the Far East. At that time, you will be able to fight Zhu Chi's battles." Zhang Shusheng praised with a smile.

"Yes, principal. Students would rather die to live up to the principal and live up to the people of the country. Whether it is North Korea or the Far East, Zhu Chi dares to fight." Zhu Chi saluted again and then left firmly.

North Korea, North Pyongan Province, Sinuiju.

This North Korean city on the banks of the Yalu River is more like a small town than a city. This is compared to Dandong, a country in China, opposite the Yalu River.

With the ten years of rapid development after liberation, China's economy has experienced a blowout development. People's living standards have improved step by step. Factories have been built one after another, and mines have been opened. New cities one after another have been driven by people's diligent efforts. Down, it quickly rose from the ground.

At this time, it was only about 6 o'clock in the morning. On the riverside in Sinuiju, two officers of the Korean People's Army, accompanied by more than a dozen guards, were using binoculars to look at Dandong, the country opposite.

"Comrade Park, what's your impression of China?"

One of the older officers put down his binoculars, took a deep breath, and said to the younger officer beside him.

"Comrade Choi, if you look at the size of the city, they are much stronger than I thought." Park Moon, who wears the rank of major of the Korean People's Army, had been studying in the United States before, and it was a topsy-turvy era.

There are very few people in North Korea who can get out. However, the reason why he can get out is because of his family.

The Park family has always been one of the spokespersons of the Japanese in North Korea. In other words, they are "traitors" to the North. Therefore, Park Moon got the opportunity to go to Japan first and then to study in the United States.[

Deep down in his heart, Pu Wenwen was not like his father who had committed a crime. Instead, he had a hidden deep patriotism. This was why he applied for the military academy and then studied at the Tennessee Infantry Command School.

reason.

After returning to the country, it coincided with the establishment of the Korean People's Army, and he successfully passed the recruitment examination. After his background was found out by the Japanese, he was directly appointed as a major and deputy staff officer of the First Division of the Korean People's Army.

Cui Mingze was a lifelong Pyongyang native. His family was close to the colonists, and he had served in the Japanese army. After the formation of the Korean People's Army, he became an officer of the People's Army and served as a lieutenant colonel. "You guys."

Stay away, I need to discuss confidential military information with Chief Park." Cui Ming dismissed the guards with a wave of his hand, and he and Park Moon were left behind the big rocks on the riverside.

"[China] has always been the Oriental Dragon lying beside our country. Perhaps the title of the Oriental Dragon can be used by other countries, but for us, it is the most correct term. They are powerful, and their territory

Their population is dozens of times ours, their national strength is hundreds of times ours, their army is hundreds of times ours, their tanks, planes and artillery are several times ours...

...Maybe because he had suppressed it for a long time, Cui Ming's voice was a little out of control, but maybe he realized that there might be guards in the distance, so he lowered his voice again, shook his head, pointed to the country opposite, and said, "Documentary

, you have never been to China. Just across a river, you can feel the power of China in the United States or Japan, or even in North Korea, but it is still not profound enough.

What those newspapers are best at is exaggerating a weak enemy into a strong enemy. In turn, they will exaggerate a powerful enemy into nothing more than that.

This is what they did, and in the 1930s, I was particularly impressed.

Do you know?"

Cui Ming suddenly turned around, stared at Pu Wenwen, and said seriously, "Everyone thinks that I was once a member of the Japanese invaders of China, a Japanese invader who brought unlimited painful memories to the Chinese people.

One member.

Actually, that's not the case at all.

I still remember that the year was 1932. I was forced to join the army and became a member of the Japanese army. After a short training, we were sent to China in 1933.

However, at that time, after experiencing the attrition of the Chinese Jinzhou defense line, the Japanese army's strength in the Northeast was not as good as before, otherwise it would not have formed a large number of Chinese troops to participate in the war.

After entering China, what I saw was the flames of war all over the place, burning from the Yalu River all the way to Shenyang.

At that time, the Japanese army was completely defeated in the Northeast and retreated to Shenyang. Chinese aircraft flew in groups over Shenyang and launched violent air attacks on the Japanese positions and key positions with a fearless and fearless style.

I once witnessed an air battle with my own eyes.

That day, we had just finished the porridge with only a few grains of rice, and were about to retreat to the air raid shelter to wait for lunch time. You must know that we were really hungry at that time. Not only us, the Japanese army also had a logistics collapse and lacked supply.

However, in an instant, a large air battle broke out over Shenyang. Within our sight, at least dozens of Chinese and Japanese aircraft were fighting.

We originally thought that those ruthless Japanese who were not afraid of flying planes into the enemy would achieve a certain victory, because we could see many Japanese aircraft even at low altitudes.

The result surprised us all.

Like stones falling from the sky, downed Japanese planes continued to fall. Later, our company counted the downed planes in private. The Chinese only lost two planes and injured several more. Even the Japanese planes that were trying to get back to the airport were chased by Chinese planes and all were destroyed."

At this point, Cui Ming took a deep breath, as if letting go of the big stone in his heart, and continued, "Later, I learned from a commander that the [Chinese] planes are much, much more advanced than the [Japanese] planes. They Flying higher, faster, with more numbers, better pilot skills, and more powerful firepower, they have almost all advantages."

"Later, you successfully escaped back to North Korea..." Pu Wenwen said in shock.

"No!" Cui Ming turned around, stared at Pu Wenwen, and said to the best brother in his youth, "I was captured..."

Silence spread between the two people. After a long time, Cui Ming said, "I hope you will not refuse my kindness. I will propose to the division commander that you be the deputy commander of my regiment. When the time comes, I hope you will act in line with me." .I don’t want you. For the sake of brothers, I just think that we should not die for Japan in vain.

[China] is not something we can provoke. Even if we have to provoke it, we should not risk ourselves... 411 What is more interesting is that at almost the same time, on another riverside, there was also a group of Japanese and North Korean officers observing They were looking across the Yalu River, but what they were observing was not Dandong, but the Chinese patrols and the Chinese fishing boats that could be seen everywhere on the river.

"Yo Xi, the [Chinese] Chinese seem to have relaxed their vigilance. A typical [Japanese] officer put down the telescope in his hand. Judging from the intensity of patrols and the sailing conditions of the fishing boats, the [Chinese] Chinese The alert during the previous Yin period has been basically lifted and normal border conditions have returned.

Next to him, a somewhat dazzling-looking, or to be precise, fatter Korean People's Army officer, nodded and bowed, and said with a smile: "The Japanese Empire has millions of troops. Not only has it accomplished extraordinary feats in Southeast Asia, it has also The East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere was formed, and it was about to win the Far East War. This was an incredible achievement.

But the [Chinese] people will be held back by the huge Soviet Union, and there will also be Americans and even the British, so many powerful enemies that they will find difficult to deal with."

Listening to the flattery of the North Korean officer, a trace of disdain flashed through the Japanese officer's lips, and then he smiled and said, "Master Jin is right. Compared with the growing empire, the Chinese, even if they win in the end, are still weak.

There is a very long way to go.

They had great power, but they chose the wrong way to fight the war. They were too greedy, and they should not have dispersed their forces and fought on multiple fronts in the vast Soviet territory.

The long supply line, the resistance of the Soviets, the support of the Americans, and if there are some other obstacles, the [Chinese] people will fall into the quagmire of the Soviet Union."

"Mr. Murakami, everything is developing according to the established plan. Tomorrow is our North Korean Independence Day. Kim believes that with the absolute support of the Japanese Empire, we will definitely form more troops and join in more deeply.

At the same time, the [Chinese] people will do nothing to us." Although the two of them were talking in Japanese, they were both mixed with many [Chinese] idioms. For no other reason, both of them were [Chinese].
