During Chen Jitang's era, Guangzhou was one of the first affluent cities in the country. After the arrival of the Xuebing Army, after years of development, especially due to the popularization of advanced technology, Guangzhou's development has been rapid, and its level of wealth is no longer the first in the country. The problem is that it is ranked first in the world. Perhaps, when the Xuebing Army first took over Guangzhou, Guangzhou people were not cold, but now, after truly feeling the benefits of the Xuebing Army’s arrival, Guangzhou people have He regards the Xuebing Army as his own disciples. Naturally, it is an honor for Ouyang Yun, the commander-in-chief of the Xuebing Army, to be able to take charge of the central government and become the leader of the country. After Ouyang Yun went to Chongqing, he also returned to Guangzhou, but due to official duties But there was no fanfare, so this was actually the first time he officially returned to his "hometown" after the establishment of the coalition government. Naturally, he was warmly welcomed by the people of the Special Administrative Region, especially Guangzhou.
"The commander-in-chief is back." "It's the junior commander. The junior commander is back." "What junior commander, he is the prime minister now, okay? The prime minister of all China."... The military parade has not started yet, just because I learned about Ouyang With the news that General Yun will participate in the military parade, the number of people on the streets of Guangzhou increased by 30%. Of course, the residents of Guangzhou City basically came out with their whole families. They came from other parts of Guangdong and even Fujian, and there were also many people from Hainan.
Ouyang Yun arrived in Guangzhou by plane at nine o'clock last night. Because it was night, he didn't know that so many people had already poured into Guangzhou. So the next day, when he stood on the balcony on the second floor of his home in Guangzhou and watched I couldn't help but be startled by the bustling crowds of people on the street outside.
"With so many people, order must be maintained. Don't be too happy to become sad." He said to Jiang Guangnai, who came over early in the morning.
Jiang Guangnai originally held a considerable position in the Supreme Command, but after only staying in Chongqing for less than two months, he became seriously acclimatized and strongly demanded to return to Fujian. Just as Ouyang Yun also needed an old man with enough weight to stabilize the situation in the special zone, Then he was released and put in charge of the military and political affairs of the Special Administrative Region.
Compared with when he first joined the Xuebing Army and was still half-hearted, Jiang Guangnai at this time has completely given up his desire to win. Of course, this is also related to the fact that there is not much conflict between the governing philosophy of Ouyang Yunbin's coalition government and what he insists on. , in his words of comfort to some of his old subordinates: Since the younger generations are worthy of heavy responsibilities, why don't we old men just let go and live in our old age? Moreover, as an old man who has experienced countless storms and waves all the way from the late Qing Dynasty, he understands the current situation. As long as the foundation of the Xuebing Army remains intact, even if someone tries to get the top position under Ouyang Yun, they will not be able to succeed.
On the occasion of the ninth anniversary of the founding of the Xuebing Army, Jiang Guangnai came to see Ouyang Yun in person early in the morning, but he had other intentions. At the beginning, Jiang Guangnai could not understand the coalition government's wanton use of troops overseas. , the Ryukyu Islands and parts of the Far East of Soviet Russia were no longer in chaos, and officially became the territory of China. Even though he still had grudges in his heart, he also knew that this would be a great thing that would benefit future generations. It would be worthy of being recorded in history, and naturally he would not Objected, "The young men of the expeditionary force have done a great job. They have demonstrated our country's prestige outside the territory and greatly boosted the morale of the people. But the more this happens, the more I feel that it is a shame for our contemporary soldiers that we cannot expel the Japanese invaders and regain the whole territory. Ouyang , it’s time." Standing next to Ouyang Yun, looking at the bustling crowd on the street, Jiang Guangnai said softly.
That's right, Jiang Guangnai came here early this morning just to persuade Ouyang Yun to launch a comprehensive counterattack against Japan as soon as possible to recover Peiping, Northeast China and other places.
"Almost every day, the Refugee Department in Nanjing receives several Northeastern refugees transferred from the front line. Ouyang, Guangzhou has been at peace for a long time. You can't imagine the suffering the Northeastern people are suffering now. Little Japan obviously already knows that they are in China The days are not long, so they are becoming more and more cruel and cruel. The people of the three northeastern provinces are actually living in dire straits. I also heard that little Japan now even robs the pots and pans of ordinary people's homes. Ouyang, the country is now It’s not that we don’t have this ability, we cannot become historical sinners and be stabbed in the back by the people.”
"Ouyang, what are you still hesitating about? Is it because the morale of the troops is low or the people don't support it? I heard that as long as our military academy and the National Defense Force are willing to immediately counterattack the three northeastern provinces, the chambers of commerce and political parties in Guangzhou are willing to donate a lot of money. The pen helps the military."
...Jiang Guangnai seemed a little chatty, while Ouyang Yun's face was a little unusually calm. Jiang Guangnai said so much, but he didn't even give a reply.
What exactly is Ouyang Yun hesitating about? No, it's not hesitation, but waiting, waiting for the super bomb to be successfully developed.
After capturing the Ryukyu Islands and turning them into a province of China, China and Japan were actually bordering each other. During this period, due to the seizure of sea and air control, under the auspices of Chen Shichang, the student army stationed in Ryukyu was no longer There are fewer tentative attacks on the Japanese mainland. The most powerful one is the offensive on Tanegashima. Chen Shichang’s idea is that if Tanegashima can be captured, because Tanegashima is only 30 kilometers away from Kagoshima, then the Xuebing Army Artillery positions and airports can be built on Tanegashima. This will not only directly threaten Kagoshima, destroy the Japanese coastal defenses, lay a good foundation for the subsequent full-scale landing in Japan, but also force the Japanese to launch a counterattack, thus continuing Consume Japan's already severely damaged national power.
Because of this intention, although this attack was called a test, the troops actually used were enough to fight a decisive battle.
Before the attack was launched, Chen Shichang, Chen Ce and their staff conducted a comprehensive military chess game, and once concluded that the feasibility was more than 60%. Attacking the Japanese mainland, because of the experience of that time and space, Ouyang Yun knew that the difficulty would definitely be high, and If there is a success rate of more than 60%, it is definitely acceptable, so I agreed to this exploratory attack.
At that time, the Supreme Command was already considering the follow-up measures after acquiring Tanegashima and began to gather supplies. Unexpectedly, the war only lasted six days, and the Marine Corps participating in the war lost more than 5,000 men and failed to capture a beachhead. Because the number of casualties has far exceeded the preset number, this exploratory attack on the tunnel ended in disgrace for the Chinese side. It was through this exploratory offensive that was hailed as the "Victory of Tanegashima" by the Japanese government that Ouyang Yun realized that the Japanese mainland We have the defense capabilities and determination, and we have learned from history and decided to wait until the super bomb is developed.
