Chapter 151 151 Home is on the Songhua River in the northeast, once
Just as Lin Youde expected, the Japanese Navy and Army soon reached an agreement in secret after the so-called "fleet shelling incident".
Subsequently, the junior officers who led the mutiny were abandoned and became the scapegoats for the whole incident, and all the Zhan Ji troops who participated in the mutiny were transferred out, and the chief officer had to spend the rest of his life under house arrest although he was not "beheaded".
Accompanied by a large number of cabinet member adjustments, the post of prime minister was handed over to Admiral Keisuke Okada - the last time and space 226 incident allowed the army to gradually gain the upper hand in Japan's sea and land struggle, but this time and space happened to be the opposite, the navy because of the counterinsurgency merit, plus the impact of the victory on Jeju Island, suddenly rode to the head of the army.
And the IQ of the Japanese Navy is slightly higher than that of the Army, after all, the Navy is a skilled service, and even grassroots soldiers have to learn some imported excavator repair - oh no, knowledge such as battleship damage management, unlike the army's grassroots leaders, as long as they can understand orders.
Although the Japanese Navy in the last time and space had been engaged in that ridiculous tapering attack operation before the start of the war, at least their judgment of the final decisive battle venue and the process of the decisive battle was still very accurate: In 1944, the main force of the US Navy fleet did appear in the decisive battle area demarcated in the Japanese Navy's pre-war combat plan, but the Japanese misjudged the situation of the decisive battle of the fleet and the strength of the US fleet.
This Armageddon was eventually remembered by lovers of military history in the world under the name of the "Mariana Turkey Shooting Competition". However, American military history experts bluntly said: At this time, the US fleet and the Japanese fleet already had a generation advantage -- and in fact, this is indeed the case, in the Mariana Turkey Shooting Competition, even if the Japanese pilots maintained the same level of training as before Midway, it was impossible to beat it, because after the US military used radar to discover the incoming Japanese aircraft group, nearly 300 Hellcats and pirates took off within ten minutes, which was more than the total number of Japanese incoming aircraft groups.
In short, the Japanese Navy's operational plan before the war was at least mostly correct, but the tactical starting point of this plan was wrong, so that the basically accurate judgment of the decisive battle area and the island fortress project that had been carried out for this decisive battle since the 1930s were completely useless.
In contrast, the Japanese Army is much worse, because they have no overall strategic plan at all, they have no idea what their strategic purpose is, and they only have campaign-level operational plans formulated by various units.
The army doesn't even know to what extent it can be regarded as winning the war, and it doesn't have the idea of promoting peace by fighting, they just wishfully think that they can destroy China within three months, and as for how to perish, it would be good to rely on momentum to attack it! Later, after discovering that it was impossible to destroy China in three months, the army could only take one step at a time, grabbing as much territory as possible, and there was no order at all.
Therefore, after the report of the Manchurian Railway Investigation Department pointed out that if there was no armistice with China, Japan's economy would collapse, and the army would be in a state of difficulty in riding a tiger. Eventually, they came up with a brilliant solution: to attack the Philippines, occupy Borneo, and get the necessary resources from there to continue the war.
And then there was no then.
In short, in the last time and space, the IQ of the Japanese army was generally in arrears, that is, a bunch of short-sighted reckless men, compared to the navy's IQ was higher, but with the war with the US imperialists, the navy was carried away by the brilliant victory at the beginning, and then the IQ became the same as the army.
In this time and space, after the navy with a relatively high IQ took power, a series of actions were also launched - in contrast, the fate of the scapegoats of the mutiny was no longer cared about.
However, the intelligence of the admirals is obviously not high enough to overcome the most basic problems facing Japanese society, and the balance of wealth distribution still requires a high degree of political skill from the promoters. And as the fox said, there were no wise politicians in Japan at this time.
As a result, Keisuke Okada proposed a solution to shift the domestic contradictions outward: organize a "reclamation group" in Japan, move the entire poor peasant families to the Japanese-occupied Korean Peninsula and the three eastern provinces, and distribute the land there to the peasants, so as to increase the property of the people at the bottom and complete the task of "reducing the gap between the rich and the poor."
Japan in the previous plane had made a similar decision, but it was far less powerful than this one. After all, the social contradictions in Japan in this time and space are more prominent than in the previous time and space, and more forceful measures have to be used to stabilize the social situation.
When Keisuke Okada's policy of reclamation was announced in mid-March 1934, it caused a huge repercussion in Japan, and the Japanese people, especially those who depended on agriculture for their livelihoods, and peasant families who had gone bankrupt in the brutal internal scissors gap, rejoiced in the propaganda offensive of the Japanese government's propaganda machine.
This, along with Keisuke Okada's efforts to cut military and government spending, has had a rather positive effect, at least on the surface, giving Japanese society a picture of prosperity.
However, behind this scene, there is the blood and tears of another people.
**
April 1934.
Lin Guokai wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked the old horse gang leader who led the way: "How far is this Shanhaiguan?" ”
"Come on," the old man said in a particularly loud voice, "I'll spend another night tonight, Ming'er will leave early, and the sun will start to sink in the west." ”
"It's been so long." Lin Guokai wiped the sweat from his forehead, "It's really inconvenient to have no railways and no roads." ”
At this time, a young man's voice came from behind him: "Mr. Lin, let another Mr. Lin invest some money, won't it be over if you build one?" ”
"Are you stupid?" Lin Guokai glanced back at the young people behind him, and glared at the young man who was speaking, "This Shanhaiguan has a railway, but now it is controlled by the devils. I've already fucking covered that background before I set off, right? ”
The young man who had just spoken casually couldn't help but lower his head, looking a little ashamed.
The person behind him poked him lightly and said to him with his mouth: "You were in a daze during the mission briefing, didn't you suffer?" ”
The purpose of this team led by Lin Guokai is none other than the refugees who poured into the customs from Shanhaiguan.
The Japanese began to implement the policy of reclamation, but for the time being, the Korean Peninsula was left alone, and the best land in the three eastern provinces was all manned. It's impossible to let the Japanese in the reclamation group cultivate those rotten land, right? In fact, in order to settle a large number of Japanese immigrants, the Chinese in the three eastern provinces had to "make a certain sacrifice", and this sacrifice was to be driven out of their homes and displaced.
What Lin Youde plans to do is to bring these displaced refugees to Western Australia in the form of recruitment. The Australian government has nothing to do about Lin Youde's blatant immigration action, and the local government of Ming wants Lin Youde to take away this batch of eating mouths.
The two sides hit it off, so no, as soon as the Japanese expelled the Chinese, the pulling team led by Lin Guokai had already rushed over, and a series of links including loading to shipping were ready.
The main task of the team led by Lin Guokai was to convince the refugees of Vale's sincerity and that a good life awaited them after they went to Australia - although Lin Youde and his Vale did provide Chinese immigrants with a better life in Australia than at home, this is not something that others will believe if you say it. In order to ensure the effectiveness of the propaganda, Lin Guokai and his team brought a full 100 wagons of food, drinking water and other supplies, which they were ready to use to win the trust of the refugees, and also to express condolences to the refugees who were driven out of their homes.
Behind them, there are several teams full of supplies are being formed, and Vale has rented seventy percent of the wagons on the railway, and after unloading the wagons, it pulls the refugees who went to Australia directly to the port.
No matter how you look at it, this is a simple task, and there are no difficulties to speak of.
Therefore, the whole front team is in a happy and relaxed atmosphere, and the young people in the team even have a kind of mentality like an outing, and they also take pictures with expensive cameras when they see the scenery they have never seen before.
The photographer in the team was already complaining to Lin Guokai, saying that if he continued like this, all the film he brought was the smirking faces of these little rabbit cubs.
Lin Guokai had to order that he could no longer take pictures casually.
But he also had to promise everyone that after arriving at Shanhaiguan, let everyone take a photo in front of the first pass in the world.
However, the relaxed and cheerful atmosphere that enveloped the team was destined to come to an end today, when there was still a day to go from Shanhaiguan.
"There's someone up ahead!" The caravan man suddenly shouted loudly, "It's the brigade!" ”
The old man of the horse gang here hadn't responded yet, and the bunny cubs behind Lin Guokai shouted first: "Someone is coming, get ready!" Where's my Tommy? ”
"Hey! Hey! The old man beside Lin Guokai shouted again and again, "What are you doing? Put it down! Zhilu said that your guns are good! Put it away! There are rules on the way, just look at it! ”
At this time, a horse gang man proudly said: "Even if it is a cottage on this road, we have to give our old man a face!" ”
Lin Guokai gestured to the young men who were excited to take out Thomson and prepare to do a big job, asking them to put away their guns, and then he came to the old man's side.
"No problem, old man?"
"A hundred rest assured, at most a little silver."
"Ah, that's fine." Lin Guokai looked relieved.
However, they soon found that it was not another horse gang at all, let alone a robbery, but a team of refugees who could not see their heads in sight.
All of them were ragged, yellow-skinned, and looked like they hadn't eaten in days.
Lin Guokai was stunned for a while, and then turned around and shouted to the young people who were also stunned: "What are you doing in a daze? Take the stuff and divide it! Forgot what we're here for? ”
The boys woke up from a dream, and soon bags with the words "Vale" written on them were opened, and compressed biscuits, canned food, and other items were delivered to the refugees like a stream.
At first, the refugees were like frightened birds, refusing to accept what was suddenly brought to them, but they were so hungry that they stalemate for a while, and then they thanked and accepted food and water.
Many knelt down and kowtowed to Vale's employees, embarrassing the lads.
Immediately afterwards, a child who looked to be only five or six years old was probably too hungry and ate too quickly, and the compressed biscuits in his hand did not hold them steadily, fell to the ground, and shattered in an instant. He hurriedly crouched down, desperately trying to pick up every cookie scrap.
Suddenly, he burst into tears, and his father immediately came up and slapped him twice, which made him cry even louder.
The cry spread like a contagious disease through the ranks of the refugees in an instant.
Vale's young people look at each other.
Suddenly, the young man who had just said, "Let another Mr. Lin invest money to build one", picked up Thomson, grabbed a full drum and walked forward angrily.
"Su Jiancai, why are you going?" Lin Guokai shouted.
"The enemy is at Shanhaiguan! I fought with them! ”
"How many can you kill?" Lin Guokai crossed his hands on his hips and asked.
"How many can be killed!" Although he said this, Su Jiancai had already stopped, as if he realized that it was meaningless for him to rush over like this.
Lin Guokai let out a long sigh, then looked back at the other young people, and his eyes stayed on the submachine guns that the other young men had already held in their hands for a while before he said, "I understand everyone's feelings. But it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Sooner or later, they'll have to pay it back. Now we have to do what we should do, so that the day will come when they will pay their blood as soon as possible! Orin, set up a radio! Inform the refugee transit complex in the back that there is not enough food in the front, and send it up quickly. Su Jiancai, you lead people to move forward with weapons, if someone dares to fight the idea of refugees, they will be killed! ”
At this time, Lin Guokai, after so much training, also has some talent.
After the young people took action, Lin Guokai turned around and gently wiped the corners of his eyes.
At this time, the old horse who led the way helped the old man come over.
"Boss Lin, it's a tradition for us to do this business without asking where the guests are coming. But today, my old man wants to make a comeback. You guys...... It's not like you're in business, what the hell are you going to do? ”
Lin Guokai glanced at the old man, smiled and said, "We want to save China." ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Really?" ”
"Really?"
"Whose team are you?"
"Lin Youde."
This time the old man was completely shocked. Equally frightened was the refugee who was eating next to him, and he asked rhetorically, "Yes...... Is that Lin Youde? That dragon among the people Lin is virtuous? ”
Lin Guokai was also shocked: "The dragon among these people ......"
"That's what the old men who came back from Shanghai say. Is that Lin Youde? ”
Lin Guokai pursed his lips and nodded: "Yes, it's that Lin Youde." ”
