Chapter 216 Humanitarian Action in Vladivostok (6)
Seeing that the conversation about military equipment was about to begin, Hu Xiushan stood up and said, "Chairman, let me explain my work first."
He Rui nodded. Hu Xiushan was very meticulous in his work, and he was the priority to end things. Cheng Ruofan once liked to do things in "multi-threading". After suffering, he learned from Hu Xiushan and his work completion rate increased rapidly.
Hu Xiushan asked the secretary to hand over the retreat order to the department responsible for the execution, and then sat back in front of He Rui wholeheartedly and told He Rui about the need for weapons in the army.
In order to defeat the Japanese army, it is naturally necessary to use the Japanese army as the imaginary enemy to conduct a large number of exercises. During the exercise, the Type 19 semi-automatic rifle performed very well, but the troops still felt that the firepower could not quickly overwhelm the Japanese army. Weapons can completely suppress the Japanese army's weapons and equipment. As Hu Xiushan, who is responsible for this part of the work, summarized the army's needs and proposed a complete set of weapons ideas.
After hearing the introduction, He Rui couldn't help but laugh. At this stage, these weapons are all concepts, but they already have the feeling of the Cold War era. Assault rifles and direct-firing weapons carried by individual soldiers.
Hu Xiushan looked at He Rui's expression and could guess that the design ideas of these weapons were within He Rui's idea. Moreover, He Rui had not proposed it until now, probably because He Rui had already considered why these weapons could not be built.
Since He Rui fully understood what Hu Xiushan was saying, Hu Xiushan did not introduce it and asked directly: "Chairman, can you listen to your opinions?"
"My opinion is to use the weapons at hand well at this stage, especially the rhythm of using these weapons. As for the weapons you are hoping for now, it is just the upgrade of the weapons now, and does not take into account the upgrade of the combat system of the war itself. For example, whether the use of armored forces is considered, the troops will not rely on two legs in the future to attack on the battlefield, but on armored combat vehicles and armored personnel carriers for long-distance battlefield maneuvers. Moreover, when ground battles are fought, whether the airplanes in the air join the battle. Deep bombing of the enemy's defensive positions and launching bomb attacks on stubborn firepower points."
Hu Xiushan also remembered and considered these contents. So Hu Xiushan immediately asked: "Chairman, how long will it take to complete these?"
He Rui certainly had an assessment, "We ended the war with Japan in 23 years and completely liberated China within 25 years. The two five-year plans will take 10 years and will be realized in 1935."
Hu Xiushan didn't say anything, but just considered it along He Rui's thinking, with his expression full of hesitation in his thoughts.
He Rui knew that because he had seen the great power of China's industrial construction, he not only felt that such development was natural, but also felt that there were too many improvements. But for young people on this road, this is a path that is both expected and completely unknown.
Since this is the case, He Rui naturally has to assume the responsibility of a leader, which is to point out the way to his comrades.
"Comrade Xiushan, what do you think we rely on to win?"
"Industrial strength?" Hu Xiushan quickly gave the answer.
"After four years of hard work, more than 10 million people have completed literacy. Young people under the age of 18 in the Northeast have completed four years of primary education. More than one million young people have completed primary education. 200,000 young people have completed junior high school education. More than 39,000 people have completed high school education. More than 4,000 graduated from college...including military academies. We are going to use such manpower to fight a war against Japan for a modern country."
Hu Xiushan did not shy away at all, "Japan became industrial earlier than us."
He Rui was a little disappointed. This is Hu Xiushan's limitation. Whether it is Xu Chengfeng or Cheng Ruofan, he has sufficient research interest in the future of the country, or things that have not yet existed in reality. Hu Xiushan is a very realistic person and will never focus on things that do not exist.
It is not that Hu Xiushan is not good. Hu Xiushan also has great interest and sensitivity to the military academic cutting-edge that has emerged. This has also formed Hu Xiushan's extreme military specialization, but it is only limited to the military field.
To eliminate the regrets in his heart, He Rui explained to Hu Xiushan: "The key point of industrialization is not to produce more equipment, nor is it just to have the idea of modernizing the establishment of the army. The advantage of our army lies in how to use these tools to political advantages. Xiushan, do you think the Japanese do not know that they are gaining benefits by invading China?"
Hu Xiushan thought for a while and replied: "..., I think the upper class knows it, but as for the lower class, I have some doubts."
"Haha." He Rui smiled. He Rui also had this stage when he was young, especially after seeing many Japanese right-wingers doing their best to beautify the war of aggression, He Rui not only completely disbelief in the so-called "Japanese people are deceitful". In He Rui's view, the Japanese people were innocence, but also accomplices and even fellow travelers of Japanese militarist war criminals.
Until now, He Rui still doesn't think that the Japanese people are innocent, but he no longer looks up to the Japanese people.
If the saying "people create history" is regarded as a theory rather than a "propaganda term", then the Japanese army that committed countless crimes in World War II were composed of the Japanese people, and the Japanese people who created these ideas were also the Japanese people. The entire Japanese people were guilty.
In reality, the Japanese people tried their best to forget World War II, and the right-wing nonsense was proving that they knew they were guilty. But from the perspective of the Chinese, these manifestations were an act of not considering themselves guilty.
Hu Xiushan may not have mastered the ability to analyze these problems, and he is not interested in learning these abilities. This young man is like a sword, in order to kill, not to understand.
But He Rui did not want Hu Xiushan's eyes to be confined to the current field, so he carefully discussed this matter with Hu Xiushan.
Hu Xiushan relied on his own understanding to understand He Rui’s view on the future Sino-Japanese War. Hu Xiushan was even more puzzled, “Chairman, I want the Japanese to understand that the war has come to an end. Wouldn’t it mean that the Japanese awaken?”
Looking at Hu Xiushan's expression, He Rui was really speechless. This guy is really both energetic and professional. Hu Xiushan saw that the Japanese people must awaken before they could understand the end of Japan's end, but this guy couldn't understand what the awakening of the Japanese people would bring.
Since this guy can see the key points, He Rui felt that there was no reason to force Hu Xiushan to understand it from a political perspective, which was a cruel force. So He Rui switched back to the direction Hu Xiushan was doing, "Xiushan, I think it's very good to understand this. So from this perspective, how do you view the requirements for equipment now."
Hu Xiushan replied after a moment of thought: "I think it is not appropriate to generally implement these equipment. However, it is necessary for our army to design the annihilation of the Japanese division. These designs do not require adding equipment, but adjust the equipped equipment to achieve the purpose of annihilation of the Japanese division-level troops in a field environment."
He Rui admired in his heart that as long as he returns to Hu Xiushan’s track of considering problems, this guy is simply a genius. He Rui has long been considering annihilation of the Japanese division in the field. If he proposed ideas to Xu Chengfeng or Cheng Ruofan, they would consider them from an overall strategic perspective, while Hu Xiushan directly considers them from a tactical perspective. In the action of achieving the scale of the battle, He Rui believes in Hu Xiushan’s considerations.
"You will design after you go back. The existing equipment will not be adjusted, but the number of existing equipment can be adjusted for different combat objects." After He Rui said that, he looked at Hu Xiushan. He saw Hu Xiushan nodding and replied straightforwardly: "I can design."
That's enough, He Rui believes that a military expert doesn't need to say more. If he says more, it proves that the so-called military expert himself has no idea.
After seeing off Hu Xiushan, He Rui began the plan to use Russian coal. In the initial negotiations completed by Han Haitao, Russia was willing to provide a coal mine near Heilongjiang. In the eyes of today's coal mine professionals, the wet coal mine here is a nightmare. But in He Rui's eyes, these coal mines can be directly used for chemical production. Whether it is coal-to-gas, coal chemical refining gasoline and chemical raw materials, they are extremely high-quality raw materials. Therefore, the Northeast government must directly and comprehensively contract this coal mine. A base with annual output of millions of tons of gasoline and chemical products is a waste of resources if it is not used properly.
He Rui was busy with He Rui's affairs, and Comrade Lenin of the Soviet Union was also busy with what he should do. He Rui's letter was still in transit, but the content of the letter had been sent to Comrade Lenin via telegram. Comrade Lenin did not expect that He Rui would actually be like a "historian".
Marxism is an economics. As He Rui said in his letter, any economically ruined old regime has never had a precedent for revival. Because of He Rui, Comrade Lenin also understood the political situation in China. Zhang Xun's restoration was of great reference significance for the Soviet Union and Russia.
In order to prevent the Tsarist family from becoming the Princess of Belarus, the Soviet Union killed the Tsarist family. The emperor of China was still there, the royal family was there, and the ministers were there. However, Zhang Xun's restoration was a target of being plotted and used from the beginning. When Zhang Xun drove away the then President of the Republic of China, Li Yuanhong, Zhang Xun's use value was exhausted and he was immediately easily beaten out of the capital.
This is a good case, which allowed Comrade Lenin to understand why He Rui didn't care about the restoration of the old dynasty at all. But Comrade Lenin couldn't understand what benefits He Rui wanted to gain from the humanitarian actions against Belarus.
Comrade Lenin believes in the word "humanitarianism" that He Rui said. The view of good and evil that people like He Rui have is different from that of normal people. When He Rui tries to make ordinary people think that both sides have the same view of good and evil, he is 100% deceiving kind ordinary people.
However, this question cannot be asked He Rui. It is not because he is afraid that He Rui will be angry, but because Comrade Lenin does not want He Rui to see that no one in the Soviet Union can see through He Rui. This will only make He Rui underestimate the upper class of the Soviet Union.
Finally, Comrade Lenin made a decision and drafted an order to send it to the front line, leaving a passage for Belarus to retreat from Vladivostok to China, and the troops launched an attack from the north of Vladivostok.'
At this time, the Japanese General Staff Headquarters in Tokyo, Japan were also discussing He Rui's statement. This statement was not He Rui's statement against Belarus. The Japanese military lost confidence in Belarus and accepted the result of Belarus' self-destruction.
Nagata Tetsuyama himself was looking forward to going to Europe to work as a military officer stationed abroad, but the General Staff and the Ministry of Army believed that such talents could not study leisurely in Europe, so he appointed Nagata Tetsuyama to work in the military training department.
This meeting called Nagata, the Zhongzuo, to have a meeting. The generals discussed the Zhi-Anhui War that was almost started. Although Duan Qirui of the Anhui War was famous, the Zhi-Anhui warlords did not care about Duan Qirui who was named with Feng Guozhang after losing their leader Feng Guozhang. If they had not received clear support from Britain and were severely warned by Japan, they would be afraid that the Zhi-Anhui warlords would have launched an attack on Duan Qirui of the Anhui Warlords.
From Japan's perspective, if He Rui is not the factor, Japan is actually happy to see a war between Zhi and Anhui. As long as a war breaks out, Japan can require the Zhili warlords to accept Japan's privileges in Shandong. Moreover, Japan has actually proposed to Duan Qirui that as long as Duan Qirui fully recognizes Japan's privileges in Shandong, Japan is willing to support Duan Qirui.
However, Duan Qirui decisively rejected Japan's request and gave the Japanese answer, "He Rui is only 30 years old and can still take over the Middle East Road and recover the benefits for China. I am fifty-five years old this year, and I will die immediately, and it is not considered a premature death. If I still sell my interests in my life, I will meet my ancestors after death, but I don't know what to say."
Both China and Japan worship their ancestors, and Duan Qirui's words have expressed his attitude extremely clearly. Moreover, after analysis by the Japanese side, Duan Qirui was directly expressing his attitude of confidence in getting He Rui's support.
So after discussion, the Japanese General Staff believes that He Rui has done so many things internationally recently, and his purpose is not abroad but at home. He has gained reputation in Europe and the United States through "humanitarian aid". If He Rui is actively attacked by Japan at this time, He Rui will undoubtedly receive public support.
But this is just a small matter. The Japanese General Staff and the Army Province are worried that He Rui will take advantage of the outbreak of the Zhi-Anhui War and send troops to occupy northern China when Duan Qirui was defeated. Once He Rui achieves such a goal, even if the Japanese side sends troops to intervene, they will probably not be able to stop He Rui from unifying China.
But He Rui didn't say a word and maintained an extremely restrained attitude. This attitude is the most beneficial to Japan. No matter what Japan does, it is not as good as secretly maintaining the status quo of China.
After the Japanese generals and schoolmen discussed it, they were speechless. Finally, General Uehara Yuzusaki laughed and said, "Ho Jun is worthy of being the chief of the Army University. President Kawahiro Kawasaki really taught a great student."
This was both a fact and also gave full view of the Japanese generals and schoolmen. Everyone could only sigh and laugh. Soon, the schoolmen's eyes fell on Nagata Tengshan, the highly regarded Japanese Nakasa.
Nagata Tetsuyama didn't care about the eyes of his colleagues. He knew that he was staying in the country because of the expectations of his seniors in the army. Since China has produced a person like He Rui, it is necessary to cultivate young Japanese elites who can confront him.
The young Japanese elites are a list, Nagata Tetsuyama is one of them, and there is also Ishihara Kanir, who is called Ranin. However, Ishihara Kanir is too close to He Rui, and although it is still valued, it is impossible for Ishihara Kanir to intervene in matters related to He Rui.
Although Nagata Tetsuyama had his own judgment, he did not say a word and waited for the seniors in the army to speak first. The two sides were entangled for a moment, and General Uehara Yuzuki said, "Nagata, what do you think He Jun's purpose is?"
Nagata Tieshan bowed slightly, "Your Excellency, consider it, He Jun really doesn't care about the possible war between Zhi and Anhui. Even if a war broke out in Zhi and Anhui, as long as the empire sends troops, He Jun's efforts will end in vain. Therefore, I believe that He Jun's current military and military affairs are now in order to take the initiative to start a war with the empire. As long as the empire can weaken the empire, He Jun will naturally be invincible. With He Jun's knowledge, he cannot give up the roots and play some tricks."
This is not the first time Nagata Tetsuyama made such a judgment, so the generals and officers of the General Staff are no longer shocked. In theory, Nagata Tetsuyama is talking about the right way. However, He Rui used the power of the Northeast to challenge the Great Japanese Empire, which is completely unreasonable in reality. Even if He Rui blocks everything, it is impossible to defeat the Great Japanese Empire.
After hearing this, there were only a few chuckles in the conference room of the General Staff Headquarters, and no one answered. Even the General Staff Headquarters Minister Uehara Yukio just smiled, and did not even comment on Nagata Tengshan's view. Instead, he continued other discussions on the situation in Northeast Asia. "The United States wants to hold a meeting in Washington and invites many countries, including us and China. I am worried that the government will make concessions to Shandong's interests due to the pressure from the United States..."
After the meeting of the General Staff Headquarters, Nagata Tetsuyama went straight to the Army University. When the school arrived, it happened to be the end of the afternoon. The Japanese Army University is an absolute elite education. It is not large in scale. On average, only fifty or sixty people graduated a year. The instructors were actually quite relaxed. Seeing Ishihara Kaner walking out of the classroom with a textbook under his armpit, Ishihara Kaner greeted Ishihara Kaner, "Hello, Ishihara Kaner."
When Ishihara Kanir saw that it was Nagata Tetsuyama who greeted him like this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "The next seat, Hi An."
He Rui was the first graduate, that is, the chief. Nagata Tetsuyama and Ishihara Kanir were both second graduates in their respective classes, and it was the second. Just by this greeting, Ishihara Kanir knew that Nagata Tetsuyama was going to discuss He Rui.
It is winter now, Nagata Tetsuyama and Ishihara Kanir are hanging from the Siping brand cigarettes produced in the northeast, strolling on the snow of the school, with two rows of footprints continuing behind them.
Nagata Tengshan went straight in, "Ishihara, have you heard He Jun say about his plan to go to war with the Great Japanese Empire?"
Ishihara smiled and said, "Naoda, shouldn't it be the Empire who took the initiative to attack He Jun?"
Nagata Tetsuyama knows how to perfunctory in front of people who are not smart enough, but facing a smart person like Ishihara Kanir, Nagata Tetsuyama is meticulous. "How could Mr. He be a passive person beating? Ishihara, this matter is related to the fate of the empire. I sincerely come to ask for advice."
Ishihara Kanir actually admired Nagata Tetsuyama's talent. When he heard Nagata Tetsuyama talk about the fate of the empire, he had to answer seriously: "25.26 years will never be delayed until 30 years. The situation of the empire is extremely difficult to maintain until 30 years. At that time, no matter what He Jun thinks, the empire will probably attack China."
Nagata Tengyama originally thought that a war would break out in 25 or 26, but Nagata Tengyama felt that the Japanese General Staff Headquarters and the Army Ministry would definitely not be a minority who could see this. So he continued to ask: "Will it be earlier?"
Chapter completed!
