"If you want to stop the Northeast now, you need at least two conditions." Cai Ye said in a deep voice.

"Those two conditions?" Tang Jiyao asked in surprise.

"The first, and all possible premise, is that Beiyang zhèng fǔ can resist the attack of the main northeast. Now Beiyang does not have an advantage in the forces of the Northern Front. The actual strength of the Northeast is about 180,000 people, although it cannot be said that all of them are jīng rui, but I am afraid that it is not a simple rabble. I have been to the Northeast to learn about the development of the Northeast Security Army. Northeast Security Army soldiers must undergo three months of recruit training before they can become full-fledged soldiers, and they must go through the battlefields of blood and fire before they can be called jīng rui. Moreover, the Northeast system is tight, the soldiers are ideologically unified, and the logistics supply is sufficient. From this point of view, the strength of the Northeast Army has far surpassed that of Beiyang. If Beiyang can't resist the pace of the northeast's advance. What awaits Beiyang will be a big collapse. It may even be the fate of total annihilation. Cai Ye said in a deep voice.

"Is it so serious? Beiyang is strong, not to mention others, Xu Shuzheng and Cao Kun's troops alone are well-deserved jīng rui. In the face of such an enemy, nearly 200,000 troops of the New Army in the southwest of our country lasted for a month and a half, and they were only able to withstand it. The Northeast also mobilized less than 200,000 troops, which were basically composed of new soldiers, how could they possibly annihilate the entire Beiyang army? Tang Jiyao shook his head, indicating that he did not understand. After all, the gap between the two sides in the battlefield is not much different from the southwest battlefield a month and a half ago.

"Beiyang's troops on the northern front line are not Xu Shuzheng's troops and Cao Kun's troops. After this battle, I admit that Beiyang is still very effective in this year, and these two troops are the only remaining jīng rui in Beiyang. But those troops led by Jin Yunpeng in Beiyang, although there are also jīng sharp, but there are definitely not many of them. Even most of them are rabble like the coalition forces of the provinces. In addition, Beiyang lost the war with the Southwest. Although the loss of troops is not large, the consumption of finances, weapons and ammunition is not small. Even I judge that the truce between Beiyang and our southwest is most likely not because of the support of the Gui family for us. Rather, Beiyang's finances are on the verge of exhaustion. You haven't been in běi jīng, you don't know. Beiyang zhèng fǔ this institution is very bloated. Especially in the past few years, Yuan Shikai's rule has become more and more dim, in order to put himself on the throne of the emperor, he made wishes to all forces, so that the entire Beiyang zhèng fǔ quickly decayed and declined. After he became emperor, he made the Beiyang zhèng fǔ internal centrifugation detached. Although Beiyang is known as the orthodoxy of the Republic of China, his foundation has long been rotten. All forces wanted to take the cake from Yuan Shikai. This made Beiyang's finances tight and the treasury empty. What are the chances of such a Beiyang? I can't guess. Cai Ye is now in a mixed mood, he hopes that the Northeast can succeed, but he is also a little afraid that the Northeast will succeed. I hope to succeed because during the time he spent in the Northeast, whether it was the army or the zhèng fǔ, the Northeast gave him a very good feeling. Although it is more ** in some respects because it is a military zhèng fǔ, compared to the Beiyang zhèng fǔ where the mind is confused and demons are rampant, the Northeast zhèng fǔ is definitely a more enlightened zhèng fǔ. In addition, although Feng Yong is young, he is very good at both vision and courage. Now there is a faint appearance of a generation of male masters. If the Northeast replaces Beiyang, it will definitely suffer from the interests of some people, but it will definitely be a blessing for the people in the entire hinterland of the Central Plains. After all, in the current Republic of China, the people in the Northeast are the happiest. Nowadays, the common people eat when they are hungry and have clothes to wear when they are cold, which is a very happy thing. But even such low requirements are difficult to achieve across the country, including in the southwest. But Cai Ye considers the entire southwest system, but he doesn't want the Northeast to defeat Beiyang, after all, after the failure of Beiyang, the whole world will become the dominant family in the Northeast, and other forces can only snort, and they will even be eaten alive by the Northeast. Even if Cai Ye is willing, the southwest dignitaries behind him will not be willing. Although the southwest has not been established for a long time, after the invasion of the Beiyang, the local people have already developed a sense of identity with the zhèng fǔ, and the Southwest Governor's Office has formed a set of interest networks from top to bottom. Although Cai Ye was the governor of the southwest, he did not have much say in government affairs, so he did not have much say in zhèng fǔ. Moreover, Cai Ye also agreed that the soldiers did not dare to be upright, which made a strange situation begin to appear in the southwest. zhèng fǔ and the army are not in harmony.

"What about the second condition, Governor?"

"The second condition, unless there is a change behind the Northeast!" Cai Ye sighed, as if he didn't want to say. But in the end, it was spoken.

"What's the change behind the scenes?" Tang Jiyao was stunned. Then he said with a change in his face: "Governor, do you mean that the Russians or Rì himself invaded the Northeast?" ”

"The Russians are mired in the war in Europe, and the possibility of invading the Northeast is extremely small. But Rìben was different, and two months earlier Rìben's Korean Army had increased by two divisions. The total strength of the army has reached 100,000, and in the past few days, I have heard from my friends that the company has passed a plan to expand the number of two more divisions and transfer them to Korea to strengthen the strength of the Korean army. The power of the Russians in the Far East has not increased greatly, and Rì himself, as an ally of the British, is now impossible to fight against the Russians at all, so the goal of Rì Ben can be imagined! "Cai Yi's god is very complicated.

"Little Rì was going to invade the Northeast?" Tang Jiyao still felt incredulous.

"Nothing is impossible. The relationship between Tohoku and Rìmoto is very tense. You won't forget the conflict that took place on the border between Tohoku and Rì Ben half a year ago! At that time, the military strength of the Korean army was limited, and it was already difficult to defend against the Russians. The number of troops that could be deployed for operations in the northeast was limited, and the number of troops in the northeast was nearly 100,000 on the Korean border, so there was no complete certainty that the war would start. In the past two years, the Korean army has been continuously expanded, and its weapons and equipment have been replaced. The strength of the North Korean army swelled all at once. And when the reorganization of the two divisions in the country is completed, I am afraid that the two divisions in China will seek to start a dispute on the border between China and North Korea. At that time, even if the Northeast mastered the righteousness, it would not be able to fight southward. As a student studying abroad, Cai himself still has a lot of affection for him, and even regards him as his second hometown. It's a pity that Cai Yi, who understands the national conditions of China, is pessimistic and discovers that there will be a war between China and China sooner or later. This is also the result of their joint analysis by the three heroes of Chinese non-commissioned officers. Therefore, Cai Ye didn't want this to happen in his heart.

"That's true! However, if Xiao Rìben invades the Northeast, I am afraid we will not be able to sit idly by. After all, the Northeast is also China's territory. "Although Tang Jiyao's strategic vision is not as good as Cai Gong, there is no shortage of blood as a Chinese.

"Of course, our Southwest New Army is first and foremost China's armed forces, no matter which country wants to invade our China, even if our generation is bloody on the battlefield, the horse leather shroud will never let the enemy occupy an inch of mountains and rivers!" Cai Ye said approvingly. The pain of the military of their generation for the backwardness of the country is deep in their bones. The direction of hard work is also for the rise of China, and the country and the world have been integrated into the bones. Only when there is a country can there be a home. Of course, many people can't stand the ** and have changed**, but in any case, it cannot be denied that the Republic of China is an era of star-studded and talents.

On the northern front, two armies suddenly encountered. The forces of both sides are equal, both around 10,000 people. In this case, the two sides have no time to react, they can only summon up courage and launch a charge, and the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road, and only the victor will have the qualification to advance.

The shouts of "killing ......" on the battlefield resounded all over the world, and the guns had become a burden. Only a bright bayonet is a guarantee of life.

"Don't panic, everyone, follow your usual training. If you want to save your life, you must rush forward bravely! "The political commissar of the Northeast Security Army played a role in stabilizing the morale of the army at this time, and they took the lead in the charge, setting an example for the soldiers on the battlefield. In later generations, most of the political commissars were well-mannered and intellectuals. But in the Northeast. The source of many political commissars is those hundred battles, after all, this person who has seen blood with him is worthy of complete trust. They are familiar with the battlefield and fearless. Although their eloquence and culture cannot be compared with those of the people, they are brave and tough on the battlefield, and they use their practical actions for the morale of the soldiers. Under their leadership, even the soldiers of the Northeast Army who went to the battlefield for the first time showed great courage.

The collapse of the soldiers on the battlefield was very sudden, and the soldiers of the Northeast Army gradually found a sense of rhythm, and the soldiers of Beiyang could not hold on. In addition, the officers of Beiyang chose to flee at the first time when the soldiers were unstable, and wanted to keep their "useful bodies", which made the collapse of the soldiers inevitable.

The unstable performance of the Beiyang soldiers could not hide the hundred battles in the Northeast Army. They are keenly aware of the changes in the enemy, and immediately lead their recruits to launch a desperate reunion.

Boom - the Beiyang Army collapsed. More than 10,000 troops were killed by a third of the air, and the others were quickly routed.

Tick tock...... The loud trumpet of the Northeast Security Army sounded. The entire battlefield encounter turned into a pursuit battle, the Beiyang soldiers were scattered, the soldiers could not find the officers, and the officers could not find the commanders. Ultimately. Of this 10,000-strong force, less than 1,000 people managed to escape, and the rest became prisoners of the Northeast Security Army.

"Leave a battalion of soldiers to watch over the prisoners! The whole brigade can set off, and the goal is Běi Jīng City! Zhang Junzhi, commander of the Fourth Brigade of the Northeast Public Security Army, shouted loudly.

In the face of the attack of the Northeast Security Army, Beiyang's performance was really unsatisfactory, and the defense line that took months to build was broken in less than three hours! In this extremely unfavorable situation, the Beiyang Army had to stay behind the army, and the army retreated in a hurry. What was supposed to be a big battlefield of confrontation between the two sides turned into a large-scale encounter. In this desolate land north of Běi Jīng, hundreds of thousands of armies are entangled, and at every moment they are removed from the army. It's just that from the perspective of the overall situation, the imposing northeast has an absolute upper hand, and the defense line of the Great Army is moving in the direction of Běi Jīng.

Guangzhou. Whampoa Military Academy.

As a military academy that carries the hopes of the Kuomintang, it is still only a prototype, although after the enrollment advertisement was issued, aspiring young people from all over the country signed up, which made Sun Wen very excited. But when it was thought that everything was going in a good direction, the relationship between the Kuomintang and Lu Rongting of the Gui family was stiff. The reason was that the top echelons of the Kuomintang had ties with Chen Jiongming, a Cantonese general who was driven out of Guangdong by Lu Rongting. Since Chen Jiongming lost his army, he showed that he went into exile in Annan, and later went to Shanghai by water to work as a duke. Originally, such an outdated character would not pay attention to it in all aspects. However, after the Kuomintang entered Guangzhou, its relations with the Gui faction were not harmonious. The Kuomintang wanted strength and the army to develop the revolution, so they contacted Chen Jiongming, wanting to use his influence in Guangdong. However, Lu Rongting was very wary of the Kuomintang. The monitoring of the Kuomintang was extremely strict, which Sun Wen and other high-level Kuomintang leaders could not tolerate, and seeing that the strength of the Gui family was getting stronger and stronger, the Kuomintang was not having a good time. Originally, Sun Wen guessed that if the Gui family wanted to keep everything in front of them after the Southwest War, they needed the support of the Kuomintang. It's a pity that no one expected that Lu Rongting and the famous young marshal of the Gui family, Lu Yuguang, chose to join forces with the southwest to resist Beiyang. Coupled with the success of Cai's flooding plan, the Beiyang army had no choice but to withdraw, so that the southwest and Liangguang were stabilized. The strength of the Gui faction has been completely stabilized in South China for half a day, and at this time, the Kuomintang has naturally become a thorn in Lu Rongting's side.

Limited to the huge reputation of the Kuomintang and the huge influence of the Kuomintang in China, Lu Rongting did not want to deal with the Kuomintang blatantly, after all, he still cared about his reputation very much. However, the high-level actions of the Kuomintang were not meticulous, and when they contacted Chen Jiongming, they were known by Lu Rongting. Lu Rongting borrowed the topic to play. He wanted to expel the Kuomintang from Guangdong by force.

Eventually, the two sides began negotiations. The Kuomintang withdrew from the city of Guangzhou and temporarily moved its headquarters to the Whampoa Military Academy outside the city of Guangzhou! At the same time, the two sides reached a consensus that the Kuomintang would use Huangpu Island to build the Huangpu Military Academy. The Whampoa Military Academy was under the ownership of the Kuomintang, and Guangdong zhèng fǔ was not allowed to interfere. But in exchange, the Kuomintang was to withdraw from Guangdong within a year's time.

For this condition, Lu Rongting was satisfied. After all, this is better on both sides than expulsion by force. After all, the influence of the Kuomintang in the whole country is not small. If they were expelled by force, the Kuomintang would use their power to propagate, and the reputation of the Gui faction would be discredited. This is what Lu Rongting and Lu Yuguang don't want to see. After all, at this time, the slogans of the revolution are still very strong.

"Let's talk about it! What should we do? "Sun Wen's face is not very good-looking. After all, whoever drives himself out will not be in a good mood.

"Prime Minister, I think we should take advantage of the fact that Beiyang has no time to react and lead the party army north. The Guangdong Gui faction wants to expel us, and we have already promised to withdraw from Guangdong Province within a year. We, the Kuomintang, urgently need our own territory and build our own army. Therefore, I suggest that our party army take the opportunity to go north to Fujian. Although the conditions in Fujian are poor, it is close to Jiangxi and Zhejiang. Both of these places are rich lands. We can use Fujian as a base and then gradually encroach on the surrounding land. At present, Beiyang is too busy to take care of itself, and the large-scale transfer of troops from the provinces under its jurisdiction has shaken the foundation of the rule of the provinces. It's a great opportunity for us to do it! Chiang Kai-shek leaped yù try. After all, the party army has been established for a long time. After training for so long, the weapons and ammunition are basically complete. This filled Chiang Kai-shek with confidence. Now looking at the forces of the whole country, only Beiyang is defeated in consecutive battles. As a newly established unit, the party army naturally picks soft persimmons in the first battle. And the Beiyang local army was undoubtedly considered by Chiang Kai-shek to be a soft persimmon. A soft persimmon that anyone can take a bite of.

"I agree with this suggestion! Now that Guangdong has nothing to do, the living can't let urine suffocate to death, and now I can see it clearly. If you want to succeed in this troubled era, you can't just rely on fame, but more importantly, the territory and the army. You see, we now have the party army and the soon-to-be-established Whampoa Military Academy. As soon as Lu Rongting heard that we were willing to take the initiative to leave Guangdong, his attitude changed 180 degrees. Now the form of the whole country is basically clear, the two Guangzhou, the southwest, and the northeast are all big forces that are integrated into one, and they are all very wary of our Kuomintang, and under such circumstances, we will not be able to develop the party army and the revolutionary force at all. But Beiyang is different. Beiyang controls the most provinces. However, the local overseers are in their own ways and their strength is scattered, and with the sudden southward movement of the northeast, Beiyang will definitely draw troops from the provinces on a large scale. This has greatly emptied the armed forces of the provinces, and it is a good time for our generation to make meritorious contributions. As long as we occupy a piece of territory, with the appeal of our Kuomintang, the strength of the party army can definitely expand rapidly. When the time comes, the Northern Expedition and the Southern Expedition will defeat all the warlords and build a real zì yóumín zhǔ party state will not be just a dream. Hu Hanmin said.

"Zhongkai, what is your opinion?" Sun Wen looked at Liao Zhongkai, who was silent and silent, and said.

"Prime Minister, ladies and gentlemen, I think going north to Fujian is a good choice. It's just that just relying on our 3,000 party army is a little thin? Beiyang has declined though. However, as the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, our party army may not be able to cope with the counterattack of the northern forces. Now I have a suggestion, why don't we invite Chen Jiongming to join the party army, with Chen Jiongming's influence in the southeast, we will definitely be able to quickly expand the influence of the party army. Moreover, Beiyang will also throw a rat trap, which is very helpful for us to strive for the development of the party army. Liao Zhongkai's words made Sun Wen and Hu Hanmin's eyes light up. Only Wang Jīngwei and Chiang Kai-shek frowned unconsciously. But looking at the excited god of Sun Wen, the two of them glanced at each other and didn't say anything. After all, the current Kuomintang is still Sun Wen's final say, and although Wang Jīngwei and Chiang Kai-shek are out, they are still only newcomers and giants in the Kuomintang. The influence cannot be compared to him.
