What the revolutionary party is good at is the kung fu of words, which has been proved in both past and present lives, Sun Cannon, the reason why it is called Sun Cannon, is that during the Republic of China, he put forward a 100,000-mile railway construction plan, he is not Yang Yuanzhao, there is no all-in-one machine and a huge steel complex, this thing is just a slogan to call on personnel.

Historically, Sun Yat-sen's announcement of the 10-year, 100,000-mile railway plan was just a trip to all parts of the country to investigate, his investigation was more like a tour, and the plan drawn from the investigation was even more funny. After so many years of devastation by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, China, which is extremely weak, even needs to borrow money to pay salaries, and its industrial base is even lower and pitiful, how can it be done? Sun Dacang's serious railway plan published in the "Founding Strategy" is simply breathtaking! The 100,000-mile railway planning map was a sketch drawn by Sun Yat-sen after consulting the railway engineering data and inspecting the existing railways, as long as anyone with a little geography and transportation could not plan Sun Yat-sen's great railway construction, and the engineering technology of future generations could not realize his grand blueprint!

Because the planning map is not so much a railway plan, but a connection game between large and medium-sized cities, and what is more terrible is that no matter whether the two cities are mountains and mountains, wastelands, deserts, or the Yangtze River, jungle swamps, Sun Yat-sen ignored them all, and directly connected them with line segments, as if to prove that he had learned the axiom of "the shortest line segment between two points" in plane geometry.

In this era, due to the emergence of the northwest, Yuan Shikai did not take the position, and Sun Dacang was honestly in the south, controlling his one-third of an acre, and there was no chance to take the position of the national railway general office, but in his bones. The problem of magnifying the cannon and thinking of itself is extremely high, but it has not changed, they think too highly of themselves and too low of the northwest.

The Japanese, of course, know that such a general mobilization. The outbreak of war was not sudden, which was not conducive to attacking and expanding the results of the war, but the Japanese ministers and military commanders naturally believed that those node cities were not heroic cities, but just transportation nodes, extending in all directions, and were mostly built in the plains, with the strength of the Japanese. A charge should be able to be won, and with the flag-waving and shouting of the revolutionary party, there is no possibility of any eventuality.

The Northwest Intelligence Bureau has been doing the infiltration of the south and the north for several years, especially with the huge investment of funds, a large number of personnel can figure out the bottom things. Even if it's central, unless it's a meeting of the most central part of the people. The others are like a sieve.

The first few days of the meeting between the Japanese and the revolutionary party were not publicized to the outside world because they were at the highest level, so the northwest did not know that the revolutionary party at the top level was still relatively firm. After all, if you can become the leader of one party, why bother to come over and make the northwest small, not everyone has the courage to advance bravely like Yuan Shikai.

After the revolutionary party gave the order, it was almost in the shortest possible time that the Northwest knew about it. Almost a couple of nodes. At the same time, the information was obtained, and then transmitted to the northwest through radio waves, and everything prepared by the revolutionary party was no longer secret.

Didn't wait for the northwest to do something to the revolutionary party, the revolutionary party acted first, Shi Lei, who got the information, was a little crying and laughing, and now, basically reached a certain intention with Beiyang, and is sending a large army to receive the city of Beiyang, once it is announced to the outside world, it will use the chess pieces in the revolutionary party to subvert the revolutionary party in one fell swoop, but unfortunately the revolutionary party did not give them this opportunity, and directly shot first.

Even if the other side does not take action, the army of the revolutionary party, which is almost 3 million, in fact, has a total number of only about 1.8 million soldiers, and has eaten almost 1 million empty salaries, and even among the 1.8 million troops, even half of them can really be trained according to time, and even if they are trained, with the military strength of the revolutionary party, there are only a few officers who have received military training in Japan.

Strategically despise the enemy, but tactically we must pay attention to it, no matter what, in the enemy's territory, it is certain to suffer losses, each node city, stationed a regiment of the Northwest Army, about 2,500-3,500 people, under convenient transportation conditions, can withstand 10 times the enemy's attack, but if the revolutionary party is desperate and concentrates on attacking one or several of these cities, there will also be danger, and troops must be dispatched.

Of course, among all this information, there is also information about the two brigades and regiments of Japan, and the two brigades in the south that the Japanese spent a lot of money to use American warships as cover to easily transport them, were also leaked, and the revolutionary party did not care about such a secret, and the military officials at the regimental level could know that there were two Japanese brigades and regiments cooperating in the battle, although the number was not exposed, but the landing site was leaked, and the American warships were used, these two crucial key points. If the northwest side still can't distinguish them, these two brigades, the two brigades that mysteriously disappeared in Tianjin, I am afraid that they will be a little ashamed of Yang Yuanzhao's large amount of appropriation every year.

Although it is said that after high-level research, the two brigades that mysteriously disappeared in Tianjin will basically not have much impact on the course of the war, after all, Cai Ye is also quite vigilant, and the intelligence bureau is also operating at full strength at the node between Tianjin and Shandong.

But this is always a variable, the two brigades have not been found for a day, I am afraid that in the military response, it is necessary to make a good reservation to prevent these two brigades from suddenly killing, now, everything is falling into place, these two brigades are really like Jiang Baili, go to other places to carry out secret missions, now far above the Yangtze River, in this battle of Shandong, doomed to play a role.

Such a key piece of information, of course Shi Lei did not dare to slack off, the first time, it was sent to the General Staff, the staff during this time, the focus has always been on the battle of Shandong, the Japanese army moved quickly, but this is not the later generations of motorized Japanese troops, basically by walking, also thought about using the railway, but in the end, only after the complete control of the railway line, will be used, in this way, the daily mileage, that is, about forty or fifty miles, so that from Tianjin to Shandong, even if it is a rapid march, it will take a few days.

There is no war left, but the preparations that should be made still have to be made; strategically despising the enemy, tactically attaching importance to the enemy, war is a kind of struggle to give play to one's own superiority and reduce the enemy's superiority, and it is possible to form superiority in strength in a certain area, and to be able to achieve victory on the battlefield in the end, with the advantages gradually accumulated in small areas one by one, and this is what every commander must understand.

When Shi Lei arrived at the staff headquarters, the staff officers had just come to an end, and a young staff officer put forward an idea, the Japanese army would attack Shandong in small units as a unit, and the starting point was that most of the people in Shandong had already retreated, and there was the possibility of interspersing.

In last year's Qingdao operation against Japan, the special forces were there, although not all, but the area where Hebei and Shandong intersected, how much area can there be, not to mention scattering an entire regiment, and being able to have a battalion is enough for Japan's interspersed squads to look good.

Similar tactical exercises, said to be a possibility, more to train these young staff officers, from multiple angles to consider the problem, staff officers are an important part of the Northwest officer system, according to the rank and time of entry, the lowest is a captain, the highest is a lieutenant colonel, as long as you can be in the position of staff officer, qualified to work for a period of time, and then depending on the strength and degree of integration, promote half a level or one level, become a higher level of military chief, that is to say, in a sense, unless it is a great contribution against the sky, Otherwise, the promotion from the rank of captain to major must go through the staff officer.

Staff officers are simple to say, but they have to come into contact with every stage of the establishment of strategy and tactics, and even if everyone does not have to consider the problem as a whole, they will be greatly tempered in the application of tactics and the overall situation after one to two years of training, and this has already been manifested in the Northwest Army.

The Left and Right Northwest Army has just been established, there are not so many factions and mountaineering, and there is no problem of accumulation, so it is good to put forward directly, and Yang Yuanzhao has always spared no effort to enhance the combat effectiveness of the Northwest Army.

In this case, Shi Lei walked in and told everyone that he had found the trace of another brigade, which immediately attracted everyone's attention, and some officers who were more familiar with Shi Lei asked nonsense about where the two Japanese brigades had gone, whether they had gone hiding and seeking.

Shi Lei didn't sell it, and directly introduced everything that is happening in the south, and the staff officers who are still in a relaxed state suddenly became solemn, the traces of the two brigades, not many people care too much, it is just a variable, everything that happens in the south, it is a big variable, which directly affects the overall situation of the current unification of the whole country in the northwest, in a sense, it is more important than the next reception of Beiyang.

Beiyang has become a ripe fruit, under the approval of the high-level and Yuan Shikai, it can be picked at any time, but it is a matter of fast and slow time, and there is a question of how much to pay, but there are changes in the south, the revolutionary party hates the northwest, colludes with Japan, and attacks the node in the northwest.

"Director Shi, you continue to confirm what the size of the revolutionary party is and what the target it is ready to target!" Chief of Staff Zhang Xiaohuai suddenly interjected, Shi Lei nodded, and went out after saluting a few familiar ones, and Zhang Xiaohuai looked at the many staff officers sitting in Zhengse, and said loudly: "Okay, don't sit, this is a big deal, let me take action, and make the basic plan first!"
