In fact, after hearing this, the principal already had an idea in his mind, but he wanted to confirm it with the first adviser.
Director Chen smiled slightly and said: "Now that Song Mingyuan is the representative of the Northwest Army, his 29th Army is responsible for the defense of the Pingjin area."
Speaking of this, Vice President Kong next to him also nodded frequently. He was secretly admiring Director Chen's superb method of turning his hands into clouds and rain.
Several major forces dispersed and collapsed.
You must know that because the Nanjing government is currently unable to fully control the northern provinces, it can only adopt a policy of appeasement and co-optation to maintain the unity of the country in name.
Among the warlords in the north, the largest and most powerful was Marshal Zhang's Northeastern Army.
Moreover, before the September 18th Incident, the Northeastern Army controlled the entire five provinces of Northeast China and Hebei. Not to mention hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers and generals, it also owned the largest arsenal in China.
Although Marshal Zhang was politically on the principal's side and even befriended the principal, the principal was quite wary of this huge military group.
But since the September 18th Incident, the situation of the Northeast Army has plummeted.
The Northeast has been lost, Rehe has been lost, and the voices and waves of protests against Marshal Zhang from all over the country are getting higher and higher. Moreover, after losing the Northeast base camp, the current Northeast Army can be said to be rootless, with popular support and unsteady military morale.
, it no longer has the majesty of the past, now is the time to clean up.
Seeing that the main force of the Northeastern Army has been replaced by other local armies in the defense of the Great Wall, no one else has anything to say when the Northeastern Army is transferred elsewhere after the war. What's more, now that Marshal Zhang has left the field, the Northeastern Army is leaderless and has no contact with the central government.
The confidence to fight.
In this way, the 29th Army and the 32nd Army, the two most powerful local armies in the north, will be stationed in Hebei. This will prevent and deter small Japan, and at the same time break up the Northeast Army, the largest military group.
The most important reason is that there is a third reason. As a result, in northern China, in addition to Marshal Yan's Jin army who was trapped in Shanxi Province, whether it was Han Fuqi in Shandong, Shi Yousan in Henan or Song Mingyuan and Monk Zheng in Hebei, they all
They are just the strength of one army, and they are not subordinate to each other and contain each other. There is no military force that can compete with the Central Army.
The Nanjing government can use differentiation, co-optation and other means to slowly lay out its plans, and sooner or later it will be able to completely control the entire north under centralized power.
This is called a counselor, this is called political strategy,
Director Chen's seemingly simple transfers set the tone for the situation in the north a few years or even more than ten years later.
Not to mention that this Mr. Kong Da was convinced from the bottom of his heart by Director Chen, even the principal was extremely satisfied.
But Mr. Kong Da still looked puzzled and asked: "Principal, Mr. Chen, I still have something unclear, that is, if the Great Wall fails, will Little Japan..."
The principal smiled and pointed at Mr. Kong Da and said: "Yongzhi is only focused on business and lacks some perspective on international politics. It's too late to help him solve his doubts."
It can be seen that the principal is in a good mood now, and he actually made fun of Mr. Kong Da.
You must know that this Mr. Confucius University is the brother-in-law of the president, and his status in the top management of the Republic of China is quite high. In addition, when he was young, he studied at Yale University in the United States and learned a lot of skills, especially in finance, which is currently rare in the Republic of China.
He is a genius and has won the trust of the principal.
Director Chen felt the principal's pleasure, and felt slightly pleased with himself. He took a sip of the tea cup, cleared his throat, and then spoke slowly.
"Japan is actually not ready to go to war with China. Although their national strength is stronger than ours, once a war breaks out, the consumption of manpower and material resources will be astronomical. The Japanese government must also consider it carefully. If one is not good, their national finances will be the same.
It is in danger of collapse."
"Another one is the interference of the League of Nations. Japan is an extremely resource-poor country. More than 90% of the raw materials needed for their industrial products need to be imported from the great powers. If the Japanese go too far, it will harm the great powers.
Regarding China’s interests, do you think the great powers will still export large amounts of industrial raw materials to them?”
Mr. Kong Da made an expression of sudden realization, nodded to Director Chen and said: "So, China and Japan will not go into full-scale war!"
"No, the Japanese have been peeping at our fertile land of China for a long time. There will always be a day when China and Japan will start a full-scale war. According to our analysis, it may be eight to ten years later. That's why I proposed the strategy of strengthening the army and training it." The principal.
He stood up and said with a gloomy expression.
"However, what makes a strong army strong is actually money. In this regard, it depends on your ability. The country's currency reform is imperative. After today's matter is over, Yongzhi must come up with one as soon as possible.
The plan will be implemented nationwide next year."
"Principal, I already have a preliminary plan, and I'm here to report it to you today."
"Okay, let's put it aside for a while, Yanji, and we will discuss the aftermath."
Director Chen gave Mr. Kong Da a meaningful look. In fact, he knew in his heart that this was the genius of Mr. Kong Da. As the Vice President of the Executive Yuan of the government and the president of the Central Bank, how could he not study the international situation and
Why not analyze the current situation between China and Japan?
But what he showed in front of the principal was that he was deaf to outside affairs and focused on doing business for the country. It was a very clever way to hide his clumsiness, but the principal just liked to do it.
A talent who concentrates on his or her profession will definitely gain more trust from those in power than a person who knows everything.
Next, the principal and Mr. Chen discussed an outline of various commendations and bonus medals for the Model Brigade and the 32nd Army. One hour has passed.
"Okay, let's proceed according to the plan just agreed upon. The press conference will be hosted by the Ci Xiu Representative Military Committee, and the ministers from various countries will be handled by Yanji."
"Yes...but there is one more..."
Seeing Director Chen hesitate to speak, the principal said impatiently: "If you have anything else, just tell me. There is no need for you and me to have any scruples."
In fact, the principal went to the Military Commission to study military affairs early this morning. On his way back, the traffic was blocked by a parade celebrating the victory. He had to go around half the city before returning to the official residence. He was already a little tired.
"Yes." Director Chen said cautiously: "Would you like to mention Xiao Zhou's Central Party Headquarters Teaching Corps as well?"
When Mr. Kong Da heard this, he was moved in his heart. Could it be that someone from Shanxi, Zhou, who had some ambiguity with the daughter of the Liu family, also went to the front line?
