The country is in chaos, which is probably the result that Wang Yuanqing most hopes to see

To make Yan Shanglong throw a "blockbuster" at the Security Council, Wang Yuanqing was not to block the mouths of Western countries. As long as the Western countries have clear goals, no matter how powerful the evidence is, it is impossible to shut up Western countries. The head of state only wants to buy enough time for the next military operations.

History has long proved that what Western countries talk about is not "reason", but "power".

If Western countries can speak "reason" with China, there will be no Japanese nuclear issue. As early as 2022, China proposed to Western countries on many international occasions to impose comprehensive sanctions on Japan, forcing Japan to abandon nuclear weapons. To this end, China even agreed to sell some advanced technology to Western countries to help Western countries develop civil electric technology and cope with the global economic crisis with Western countries. Western countries did not respond to China's proposal, and were secretly supporting Japan intensified, because Western countries all know that China's revival will inevitably change the international situation and break the Western hegemony. A powerful Japan is an important force to prevent China's revival!

What determines the politics and foreign policies of Western countries is the "power" that the Western world values ​​the most!

This understanding not only affected Wang Yuanqing, but also influenced Zhao Rundong.

At the beginning, Zhao Rundong's decision to send troops to the dynasty was related to demonstrating the strength of the Republic and allowing Western countries to realize the "power" of the Republic.

Without strength, the Communist Party not only has no say internationally, but also has to be slaughtered by Western countries!

Wang Qing, who once served as the chief assistant of Ji Youguo, saw this very clearly. Before mastering advanced electric technology and promoting the "electricity revolution", the Republic implemented the reform policy of "market for technology" for 30 consecutive years. As a result, the technology was not exchanged and the domestic market was lost. 25 of the 28 major industries were monopolized by foreign capital, ranging from civil aviation passenger planes to toothbrushes and toothpaste, and foreign goods were everywhere, and national industries and national capital were in a hurry. According to incomplete statistics, before 2010, Western capital received more than 50 times of return from the Republic!

Facing the "economy: people" of Western countries, you can't imagine anything without strength!

Have strength. You must also display your strength appropriately.

Before Yuan Qing came to power, whether it was Ji Youguo or Zhao Rundong. They were all because the national strength of the Republic could not support the comprehensive expansion policy. They could only show the strength of the Republic in passive situations. After Wang Yuanqing came to power, he actively implemented the "hard policy" and actively planned the war against Japan. It fundamentally changed the basic policies of the Republic.

Victory is not something that can be achieved at your fingertips or even overnight.

The Republic needs a vast world facing the world, and it also needs a more ideal surrounding environment.

During the strategic planning stage, Wang Yuanqing clearly proposed a strategic offensive plan for "marching into the Western Pacific". The Republic will not, and there is no need to occupy Japan's previous burden that cannot be solved for decades. However, the Republic must obtain the exact interests of war and open the door to the Western Pacific!

Attacking the Ryukyu Islands is the only choice.

Although the Muslim can enter and exit the Western Pacific from Taiwan after the reunification of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, Taiwan's geographical location is not very ideal. There is the Philippines to the south and the Ryukyu Islands to the north. If the Republic had not occupied Japan, Japan would definitely turn to the United States after the war, thus blocking the Republic with the Philippines and blocking the Republic's access to the Western Pacific.

Yinghui fully supports the request of the head of state.

The Republic has enough national strength to go all over the world. How long does the Republic's Navy usher in a "golden development period"? The Republic will become a superpower on par with the United States. Not to mention that other reasons cannot enter and exit the Western Pacific smoothly, no matter how many aircraft carriers the Republic builds, it does not make much sense to do in the narrow East China Sea and South China Sea. Not only can the aircraft carriers not be able to perform their fists, but they also have no place to use them.

Attacking the Ryukyu Islands became the key plan of the General Staff.

Xiang Yinghui left Pei Chengyi in the General Staff Department and did not allow Pei Chengyi to command strategic bombing against Japan. The purpose was to let Pei Chengyi be fully responsible for the combat operations of the attack on the Ryukyu Islands. During the Peninsula War, the combat operations planned by Pei Chengyi against Jeju Island were fully successful. He was responsible for the combat operations of the attack on the Ryukyu Islands, which was naturally the best choice.

Pei Chengyi did not disappoint Xiang Yinghui, nor did Wang Yuanqing disappoint him.

On the afternoon of January 28, Wang Yuanqing came to the General Staff to listen to the pre-war introduction.

Unlike in the past, Wang Yuanqing was very active in military operations. Apart from the specific details, he was very "interested" in all issues. This is understandable. During the Peninsula War, Wang Yuanqing was only the deputy head of state, mainly responsible for diplomatic and administrative affairs, and Zhao Rundong was responsible for military affairs. Now Wang Yuanqing is the head of state and the supreme commander of the Republic ** team, and must shoulder the responsibilities of the supreme commander. From this, it can be seen that Wang Yuanqing insisted on letting Zong Yingren be the Premier of the State Council, Ye Zhisheng as the Minister of National Defense, and Yan Shanglong as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, was to free himself from the heavy administrative and diplomatic affairs, and to have more energy.

Military operations.

"The troops participating in the war are ready and the battle will begin tonight."

Xiang Yinghui glanced at Pei Chengyi, who was introducing the situation, and signaled Pei Chengyi to introduce it in detail.

"After the battle begins, we will concentrate all air transport forces to the 152nd and 153rd Airborne Brigade at the same time." Pei Chengyi said, and pointed out the deployment locations of the two airborne brigades on the battlefield map. "The airborne combat operation will last about eight hours and end tomorrow morning. During this period, the Air Force and the Navy's shore-based aviation will strive to seize air supremacy, suppress ground air defense firepower, and provide air support to the airborne troops. After the airborne troops seize Kadena Air Base and Futenma Airport, we will transport the three fast-resistance brigades and 163rd Airborne Brigades of the 77th Army to the front line by air transport, and the 173rd Airborne Brigades. The entire air transport work will last for two days, and then two armored brigades will still be transported to the front line by air transport. Within three days, our army will invest a total of eight brigades and 40,000 troops."

"What should I do in Taiwan?" Wang Yuanqing asked the first question.

Both the airborne 152 and the airborne 153 are deployed in Taiwan, so other forces must be sent to replace the airborne troops.

"The Marine Corps will go to Keelung and Kaohsiung tomorrow morning and are expected to replace the airborne brigade tomorrow afternoon. During this period, other troops stationed in Taiwan will temporarily maintain order."

Wang Yuanqing nodded slightly and said, "In this way, there is no need to dispatch the Marine Corps at all."

"There is no need for the time being." Pei Chengyi answered very readily, saying, "From the information we have already mastered, there are about three divisions of the Japanese army deployed on Ryukyu Island, with a total force of about 50,000. Although the airborne troops lack armored power, the area of ​​Ryukyu Island is limited, and there will be no large-scale armored cluster battles, so there will be no need for too much armored power. The main use of airborne troops can also play a strategic paralysis role. Mobilizing the Marines cannot be concealed and difficult to avoid the strategic reconnaissance of the United States will inevitably expose our war intentions. According to our analysis, the United States is likely to know that we will dispatch airborne troops, but it is impossible to think that we will use airborne troops and air transport as the main means of offensive and supply, which can maximize the suddenness of the battle and reduce the difficulty of the battle.

”

"It's not that Marines don't need it, it's just that time."

Wang Yuanqing looked at Xiang Yinghui and signaled Xiang Yinghui to explain it clearly.

"After the war begins, we will mainly seize Ryukyu Island and annihilate the defenders on the island." Xiang Yinghui destroyed the cigarette butts in his hand and said, "Our army has already mastered the sea control and air control, which can effectively prevent the Japanese army from sending reinforcements to Ryukyu Island and transporting combat materials. After the airborne troops land on the island, they will first seize the airport to ensure the smooth progress of air transport. If necessary, Marines can be sent to the battle within three days. Of course, if the battle progresses smoothly, we can also invest the Marines in other directions, capture important nearby islands, and reduce the combat burden of the airborne troops. Overall, after capturing the airport, we must capture Naha Port as soon as possible, and transport heavy equipment and combat materials to the front line by sea to ensure the smooth progress of combat operations. In this case, the Marines will participate in the war later, which will not have a great impact on the battle."

"How many casualties will there be?"

"If the aircraft carrier battle group moves westward and provides support to the offensive forces, it can control casualties below two thousand."

Wang Yuanqing frowned slightly and said, "How to mobilize the aircraft carrier battle group to ensure a strategic blockade against Japan."

"There are submarine troops and long-range aviation troops." Xiang Yinghui paused and said, "The Navy's 'Ocean Pre-Production War Force' has set out and can complete the strategic blockade against Japan instead of the aircraft carrier."

Wang Yuanqing thought for a while and said, "Since that's the case, adjust the aircraft carrier battle group as soon as possible and attack Ryukyu Island with all his strength."

Xiang Yinghui didn't say much, he had made relevant arrangements.

"We must not only capture Ryukyu Island, but also minimize casualties." Wang Yuanqing picked up the cigarette on the table and said, "The attack must be 'quick, accurate and ruthless'. The Western group of countries has become unrest and is hesitating about whether to intervene in the war. We must seize this opportunity and capture Ryukyu Island with lightning speed and not give Western countries the opportunity to intervene. After the battle is over, we must contact Western countries to discuss how to resolve the post-war problems. Therefore, the success or failure of this battle is related to the post-war world pattern, and I do not want any mistakes."

"Don't worry, we're fully prepared and there will be no mistakes."

Wang Yuanqing nodded to Xiang Yinghui and said, "I will not intervene too much in military issues. The combat operations are still fully responsible by General Xiang. I only need the final result."

Xiang Yinghui didn't say anything, indicating that he understood Wang Yuanqing's meaning.

Everyone in the General Staff, including Xiang Yinghui and Pei Chengyi, knows that the Head of State is a person who attaches great importance to the results but does not pay much attention to the specific implementation process. This can be regarded as a major feature of Wang Yuanqing! (To be continued,)
