Faced with such huge military pressure from Japan on the northern battlefield, the China Federation of Government has long taken precautionary measures...

At present, in addition to the four armies of Chen Geng's army in the Fifth Field Army in North China, Zeng Zhongsheng's army, which was originally in the Northwest, has also developed into four armies of 300,000.

The Liu Bocheng's troops of the Second Field Army also secretly headed north in batches in the second half of 1948. At present, after personnel selection and reorganization, Liu Bocheng's troops are still powerful field corps organized by four armies of 400,000.

Therefore, by the second half of 1939, the People's Liberation Army had already concentrated 1.1 million troops on the northern front, plus 300,000 troops of the Taihang Corps lurking in the Taihang Mountains.

Therefore, China has concentrated 1.4 million main forces of the People's Liberation Army on the long front from North China to Northwest China. If local troops are added, more than 3 million reserve troops and militia organizations, the total number of nearly 5 million troops has reached on the northern front.

Because of the four-level response mechanisms of field troops, local troops, reserves and militia organizations, the PLA field troops did not need to assume the responsibility of local defense, but evolved into a fully mobile strategic coroner, and the Military Commission could play a lot of cards.

Therefore, the 400,000 Fourth Field Army currently in Shandong and Henan are also the second-line corps that can be invested in the northern front, and they assume the functions of the strategic reserve team of the northern front.

Xunhuaizhou believes that the PLA's current forces on the northern front are enough to deal with any wars that occurred on the northern battlefield. Not to mention that there is a Taihang Corps at the defiance of the heavens.

Because of the official outbreak of the European War, Xun Huaizhou had to set off overnight to return to Chongqing after arranging the work of the Taihang Corps in the next stage.

After returning to Chongqing late at night, Xun Huaizhou had no time to go home, so he rushed to the Chairman's residence and had a long talk with the Chairman.

When Xun Huaizhou returned to his new home outside Chongqing, it was already past 10 a.m. on September 2nd.

Because I had long received the news that Xun Huaizhou was returning to Chongqing today, Zhou Tao did not rest and was still waiting for Xun Huaizhou in the living room of the villa.

Seeing Xun Huaizhou returning home in a dusty manner, Zhou Tao, who had been married for more than a year, could not help but jump into Xun Huaizhou's arms and acted coquettishly for a while.

Xun Huaizhou and Zhou Tao got married in the fall of 1938. Although both of them really wanted to keep a low profile, their wedding with the United States was still very lively by the Zhou family.

Before getting married, Zhou Tao began to gradually hand over the main work he had to Suoer and Zhou Xuan, two capable generals.

Of course, Otani took over the control of the dark world. Although only eleven or twelve years old, Otani showed his ability after taking over the Longfeng Organization, but Zhou Tao gradually felt relieved. Now, unless something particularly serious and difficult to solve is necessary for Zhou Tao to deal with, Zhou Tao has retired in Chongqing for most of the time and became a well-behaved and charming young wife in Xunhuaizhou. For nearly a year of marriage, Xunhuaizhou and Zhou Tao have been addicted to the newlywed honeymoon, and are still sweet.

Although it is really busy with the business practice of searching Huaizhou, it is impossible for him to stay at home with Zhou Tao, the newly married wife all day, and Zhou Tao himself has to go out to do some special things from time to time due to special needs, the young couple lived the sweetest and happiest life after they came to this world during this period.

After Zhou Tao was so mean in Xun Huaizhou's arms for a while, Zhou Tao reluctantly left Xun Huaizhou and went to the bathroom to help Xun Huaizhou prepare for bathing water. Xun Huaizhou worked hard for a day, but his body was sticky and smelly and sweat a lot. It was hard for Zhou Tao to care about Xun Huaizhou's smelly sweat and had a good time with Xun Huaizhou.

When Zhou Tao helped Xun Huaizhou prepare the bath water, the two of them entered the luxurious and unimaginable bathroom hand in hand, took a bath that made Xun Huaizhou comfortable to his bones, and then returned to the bedroom, creaking and tossing on the bed for the middle of the night, the breathing gradually subsided.

Zhou Tao curled up in Xun Huaizhou's arms with satisfaction. While playing with his fingers, he drew circles on Xun Huaizhou's chest, and said to Xun Huaizhou with infinite laziness: "Europe is all ready, Tian'er has also rushed over. Now most of the Phoenix's troops have rushed over, and several mercenaries controlled by Zhou Xuan have already taken their place. Just wait for the war to begin, and take advantage of the troubled waters. I guess the harvest will not be small this time."

Xun Huaizhou smiled, without saying a word, but gently patted Zhou Tao with his hand that was holding Zhou Tao's back, indicating that he knew.

Zhou Tao arranged a large group of people to enter Europe this time, mainly to plunder Europe's gold reserves and various historical relics through various channels. Zhou Tao was jealous of these things for a long time. In the later generations of the two, these hard currency were mostly gathered in the United States through various channels, so that the United States' gold reserves after World War II had nearly 50% of the world's gold reserves.

In this life, Xun Huaizhou and Zhou Tao were of course unwilling to let this happen again. Therefore, in addition to using major companies such as Zhou Tao, who are clearly ahead of other companies in secret, to launch a war through large-scale dumping of European belligerent countries, they also use various dark means to prepare to take advantage of the opportunity of war to directly plunder these hard currency assets.

Of course, according to Xunhuaizhou and Zhou Tao's plans, after the domestic regime is stable, Zhou Tao will hand over these treasures to the motherland in various ways.

Especially in the late Qing Dynasty, Western powers robbed a large number of ancient Chinese cultural relics abroad many times. Of course, the two of them had to take them back one by one. Of course, it was definitely necessary to accompany some interest. As for the amount of interest, it was enough to satisfy these two greedy people, only they themselves knew it.

The couple talked a lot again, and then they fell asleep with satisfaction.

The next day, Xun Huaizhou attended the temporary meeting of the Military Commission, discussing the current situation in Europe and the changes in the world situation after the official start of the European War.

At the meeting, some people suggested that they should consider sending troops to Northeast China or Outer Mongolia in the near future and stabbing the Japanese army in the back.

The main reason for those who made such a suggestion was that now that the European War has officially broken out, the situation in the Soviet Union in Eastern Europe was suddenly tense. Facing the huge pressure of German invasion, the Soviet Union had to focus on its own basic European region, which was originally dominated by the Japanese army.

Moreover, in the two years after the outbreak of the Soviet-Japanese War, the Japanese army had obviously taken the initiative on the battlefield and actively promoted the front line. The Japanese army also had a certain advantage in the casualties of the Soviet army.

If China allows the Japanese army to form an overwhelming advantage over the Soviet Union in the Far East and Outer Mongolia, then the Soviet Union will face strong pressure from two lines, east and west, and wars will continue in the southern line. Under such circumstances, the Soviet Union will inevitably suffer.

If the Soviet Union is defeated, then Germany and Japan will join forces with each other, which will pose a great threat to our country. Moreover, if the Japanese army forms a stable occupation of Outer Mongolia and Siberia, our army may face the situation where the Japanese army enters the pass in a large-scale manner and threatens the northern region of our country in the future. At that time, the pressure on our army will be very huge.

Of course, although there are some people close to the Soviet Union among the top leaders of the Central Committee and the Military Commission, after years of development, China has clearly embarked on a different development path from the Soviet Union. Now there is no high-profile emphasis on how to safeguard the Communist International and how to sacrifice itself for the Soviet elder brother.

Xun Huaizhou was still deeply pleased to see such a situation at the Military Commission meeting. With the development in recent years, more and more people in China's top leaders have already possessed the thinking of leaders of major powers. When considering the relationship between countries, the first thing they consider is the strategic interests of the country, rather than act purely based on personal preferences and dislikes. This is an important sign of the overall strengthening of a country.

Xun Huaizhou did not make a speech at the conference when facing this part of the doubts, but the Chairman explained in more detail the strategies and policies that our party and our army should adopt at present.

In his speech, the Chairman pointed out that at present, our party pursues an independent foreign policy, and therefore, it will not be restricted by any country in foreign warfare.

Regarding the operation against Japan in the northern region, the Chairman expressed passionately that our army would definitely send troops to the Northeast region, not only to send troops to the Northeast and Outer Mongolia, but also to send troops to the Siberian region on a large scale. It is our army's mission to send troops to the northern Japanese army and the Kwantung Army to eliminate the Far East.

However, when to send troops, how to send troops, and what results we hope to achieve after sending troops, this requires serious consideration.

After carefully analyzing the domestic and international situation, the Chairman clearly pointed out that at present, it is not the best time for our troops to go out to the Northeast to confront the Japanese army in full swing.

The current European war has officially broken out, but it is still far from being in full swing. It is not clear how the entire war situation is going. After Germany occupied Poland in the east, it will further advance eastward and fight with the Soviet Union, or whether it will lead its troops westward to swallow France and other Western European countries. Judging from the current situation, it is not clear.

Moreover, it is still unclear what strategy the United States, a veteran capitalist country, will adopt for this war. It is not clear whether to continue to wait and see, make a fortune in the war, or intervene in time, and let yourself join the battle group.

At the same time, Japan has long formulated the southward plan to be implemented and when it will be implemented, it is still uncertain.

Therefore, judging from the current situation, our army should only adopt strategies of actively training, step up preparations for war, and keep a close eye on the battlefield.

Only when the right time can we formally send troops to ensure that our army can hit the target with one blow, rather than being dragged into the quagmire of the world war at this stage and being unable to extricate ourselves.

After all, our country's comprehensive national strength is still very weak and the war resources are not prepared enough. Therefore, the later our army will intervene in this war, the better, and the shorter the war time, the better. We must make full use of the advanced military equipment our army currently has, use asymmetric wars to resolve the battle in a timely manner, minimize the losses to our country and maximize our interests in this war.
