‘Many people asked me why I had to be so cruel to my officers and soldiers. The reconnaissance team once had extremely brilliant achievements, and they were also a unit composed of the best soldiers of the Chinese Empire. Why did they have to revoke their organization and forcibly break up them?

More than once, I asked myself in my heart what exactly made me make such a cruel decision? Later, after many countless reflections on day and night, I finally found the answer. Although I made this decision subconsciously and had less than ten minutes of thinking, now I have spent a lot of day and night to find this answer for myself.

Yes, why do you do this? Now I can tell you the truth, I am tired. Since ancient times, China has gone through countless wars and internal struggles, and for thousands of years, it has transformed China from the world's largest country to the kind of country that people bullied decades ago.

Some people may say that it was the incompetence of the Qing rulers and the incompetence of the Qing army, but in my opinion, the real situation is not like this. The decline of every powerful dynasty begins with internal strife and internal struggle.

The Chinese Empire has just been established for a few years. According to common sense, the Chinese Empire at this time should be the most united country in the world. Now the Chinese Empire is indeed so good. The government, the army, and the cooperation with the people are very tacit.

Everyone has no thoughts. They hope that the country can become stronger and move towards the road of revival as soon as possible. Everything is moving towards a beautiful direction.

But I didn't expect that on the road to revival, the first one to make a mistake would be our army, exclusion of foreign officers. This seemingly small problem, as long as these officers show strong enough and convincing enough ability, it is only a matter of time to master this force.

But what is the responsibility of the army? When fighting, the enemy will not give you time to let your commander subdue the troops, so that they can command this army well. Military orders are like mountains, which is a regulation that can be remembered by soldiers since the Third Battalion.

Now we are strong, with our own motherland, millions of troops, and even more powerful navy and almost invincible air force. So I couldn't wait to lift my tail up when I saw someone, always thinking that he was invincible in the world and no one was his opponent.

That is why officers who are familiar with the situation on the battlefield are rejected, and even put them in ignoring the orders of superiors. I also know that this situation not only exists in the reconnaissance regiment, but also in the three navy, army, air and air forces. After all, since ancient times, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts.

However, what exactly gave them unconventional capital to a unit of more than 70% of the recruits? What gave them the invincible arrogance? After thinking for a long time, I finally thought of who gave them absolute confidence.

That is their predecessors. They had fought on the battlefield before and helped them without any complaints, but they resisted them together. They even did not hesitate to verbally attack and beat their predecessors and other evil methods.

Of course, the officers involved in the beating were all promoted by their military achievements. They have experienced countless battles and have a certain degree of judgment on the situation on the battlefield. However, they even don’t even understand the principle of knowing themselves and their enemies, and treating all their opponents as opponents.

Why do such an army, the country and the people believe that you will win a battle? Why do they hand over their lives to you?

Some people also told me that this is just a small problem, and it can be corrected through education of the troops. If things are made big, it will be very unfavorable to the country, the army, and the war. But I did not follow their suggestions, because what I saw from this incident was not what we looked like after defeating the enemy, but the scene when the enemy captured our country, captured our capital, and inserted their national flags into our territory.

A small thing is enough to cause a huge earthquake. This incident has caused strong dissatisfaction from the Fifth Army. If the Ninth Army makes a mistake in judging the battlefield situation due to this incident, the troops will eventually be surrounded by the Soviet army and fall into a trap of being about to be annihilated.

Because their previous relationship with the Fifth Army deteriorated, the officers and soldiers between the two sides were disagreeable. Even if the North Army Command issued an order to support myself, the Fifth Army was not moved? This kind of thing has happened, and it has happened more than once.

So, I am tired, and I don’t want to see any misfortune caused by internal fighting, nor do I want to mediate all kinds of strange things caused by internal fighting again and again.’

This is the manuscript that Su Dao finally took out after several revisions. This manuscript did not see Su Dao's words to appease the troops, nor did he see how Su Dao resolved the sequelae brought to the troops by this incident.

Instead of not having the above content, he criticized the recruit army represented by the Ninth Army intensified its criticism. Although it supported the Fifth Army on the surface, wasn’t it also warning the Fifth Army? What Su Dao was most afraid of was that this incident led to the loss of harmony between the troops.

The Ninth Army is young and energetic, and will definitely suffer a great loss in the future. The closest one is the Fifth Army. If the Fifth Army is thinking of letting them suffer a little, then the loss will only be the national defense power of the Chinese Empire.

Since this kind of thing can happen twice, it can happen twice, and Su Dao has no reasonable evidence to punish them except criticizing them, because as long as they find some battles, they can say that they can't get away, or how long it takes to support them.

How did Chairman Jiang lose in his previous life? It was not because of the dissonance between the troops that many troops only adopted support when friendly forces needed support, but the troops themselves refused to dispatch.

The most famous one is one of Chairman Jiang's aces, the 74th Division. During the Battle of Menglianggu, Li Tianxia became jealous of Zhang Lingfu because of her failure to compete for the commander of the 74th Division. Therefore, during the Battle of Menglianggu, when Li Tianxia received Zhang Lingfu's request for help, she only shot a small army and shot guns and cannons along the way with the radio on her back.

When contacting the 74th Division, they kept saying that they were about to arrive, but the blocking firepower was too strong, so they could open a hole immediately after persisting for a while. But in fact, the reinforcements did set off, but there was less than a company's troops and they could not play any role at all.

Although this kind of thing has not happened now, Su Dao is a veteran after all, and he can see many things clearly and learn from history, so he has to be more careful in many aspects. The people below are likely to be suspicious of each other for some reason.

The current army is no longer the 99th Army period, and there are only a few people. No matter how powerful we are, they are only the division commander and brigade commander. Moreover, Su Dao, the division commander, was suppressing it. The most important thing is that because there were few people at that time, the expansion of the troops was inevitable. So many people knew that even if they didn't raise themselves this time, they would definitely raise them next time, so they didn't have so much thought.

Now Su Dao didn't know if the people below were still thinking like this, but based on the incident this time, Su Dao vaguely guessed that the mentality of the officers and soldiers of the army had changed.

As the emperor, Su Dao naturally could not hold a position in the army himself, nor could he lead the army personally like the ancient emperors. Everything was moving forward step by step according to Su Dao's plan, but the requirements for Su Dao were getting higher and higher.

Su Dao, who has not personally commanded the troops for several years, is now a little unfamiliar with the command of the troops. Moreover, he has never commanded so many troops, so he often doesn’t know what to do.

So for Su Dao, now he has gone through an era of great strides. Unconsciously, even Su Dao did not realize that he had entered an era of gradual exploration, and if he was not doing it well, he would go a fork in the way.

Su Dao was worried. The matter in the army made Su Dao sleep for less than three hours a day. After a few days, he lost weight, which really scared the crowd below.

As for the troops, after seeing Su Dao's letter of surrender, they gradually began to reflect deeply, and many people also understood Su Dao's difficulties and concerns. After learning that Su Dao had lost a lot of weight due to this matter, the officers and soldiers who had not yet figured it out also gave up their previous ideas because of Su Dao.

At the same time, Zhukov, who had finally learned that something had happened to the North Army Group, was also very excited. While sending a telegram to urge the reinforcements to speed up, he began to formulate a counterattack plan.

In Zhukov's view, there were serious cracks inside the North Army Group and more trust was lacking between the troops. This was the perfect time for them to attack. Although the Soviet Red Army did not have the ability to destroy the two armies together, it was still possible to concentrate troops to eliminate the newly-emergency Ninth Army.

But the premise is that they must successfully hold the Fifth Army, and Zhukov, who had fought with the Fifth Army, also knew that this Fifth Army was by no means a good person.

To win this counterattack, the key is whether the Soviet army can quickly annihilate the Ninth Army, and the Ninth Army occupies a relatively large proportion of Zhukov's plan, with a total of 70% of it.

In Zhukov's plan, as long as the troops annihilate the Ninth Army, it is only a matter of time before the annihilation of the Fifth Army.
