Chapter 386 The main battle and the harmony
Chapter 300 The main battle and the main harmony
Hualian's current bear-style tank has been ahead of the world's powers for more than 30 years because it is equipped with the latest composite armor and various electronic aiming tools.
What we need to do now is to wait for more downstream factories to be established, to spread out mature production technologies to increase production, and to study more cutting-edge technologies. Because Hualian's technological standards are higher than those of European and American powers, and the standards are also higher, increasing the production of products not only makes up for the quantity gap, but also rely on these technologies to further upgrade and improve the old tanks and other weapon products.
When other powers in the world spent more than ten or twenty years studying and understanding the science and technology contained in the existing weapons of the Chinese army, Zhong Yang had already led China to equip harder depleted uranium armor and more powerful engine technology. Combined with the composite metal cermet wall cylinder and other technologies, the diesel engine can break through the limit of the average fuel energy conversion and utilization of 65.
Many of the original automobile factories and tractor factories have also changed their careers and started to produce tanks and military vehicles.
The vigorous heavy industry production plan also radiates to the hinterland of the ** government in the southwest. The two sides are now in a period of high cooperation. Because of the repeated failures in the war, the ** Party has to accept the olive branch extended by Hualian, even if it is highly toxic.
Like the division between the pro-war and factions within the Hualian, the ** government also had serious differences in its attitude towards Japanese aggression. However, unlike the Hualian, because the internal industrial strength is weak, the policy core of the pro-polis factions is even more cross-line.
Among them, Wang Zhaoming was the core and the mainstay of the party's peace faction. When later generations mentioned this person, they were full of curses, such as "traitor" and "lack dog".
But in fact, few people are willing to calm down and read and think carefully about this obscure and bleak history. It is easy to serve the country with passion and hard work, but it is difficult to help the people in the world. The path Wang Zhaoming chose is the most difficult path and has to pay a heavy price.
In Chinese history, whenever a foreign war occurs, those pro-war factions who insist on giving in to the outside world are always respected as national heroes, while those pro-conciliation factions who advocate concessions and reconciliation are always exiled to the ranks of traitors who are scum of the nation.
Despite this, every time a foreign war occurs, China has never had a single main war. There will always be a group of peacemakers who advocate concessions and reconciliation, and they are not afraid of being a traitor. The same is true during the Sino-Japanese War.
China is divided into two factions: "main war" and "main peace". The enemy country and Japan also have two factions: "main war" and "main peace". The Japanese military headquarters and the Kanto Army are pro-war factions, while the Japanese government and foreign affairs are pro-war factions.
When the Kwantung Army launched the "September 18th" Incident, the Japanese government wanted to stop it, but was powerless. At that time, Prime Minister Ruosuke later described the experience of the "September 18th" Incident with the title "Army that does not obey orders". This article alone shows that the Japanese government led by the Maitsuke Society can no longer control the army.
However, the Manchukuo supported by the Kwantung Army was not recognized by any country, and the Japanese government at that time did not recognize Manchukuo. In December 1931, after the fall of the Wakatsu government, Inukatsu took over as prime minister.
Prime Minister Inukai opposes the establishment of a top Manchuria in Manchuria, believing that such explicit violation of the nine-country treaty will inevitably lead to a head-on conflict between Japan and the European and American powers, and also attempts to curb the style of "lower defeating the upper and higher" in the army.
But Inukai's actions angered militarists. On May 15, 1932, a group of fanatical soldiers rushed into the prime minister's residence and blatantly killed the Prime Minister. After Inukai was killed, there was no politician who dared to stand up to resist the fanatical soldiers. The Japanese government actually became a government under the control of the soldiers.
On September 15, 1932, the Japanese government officially recognized the "Manchukuo", but this aroused opposition from countries around the world.
From March to May 1933, the Japanese Kwantung Army launched arbitrarily the Great Wall offensive and fought to the vicinity of Peiping. Although the Chinese army carried out some resistance, it retreated step by step.
On May 31, 1933, China and Japan signed a ceasefire agreement in Tanggu, namely the Tanggu Agreement. The Tanggu Agreement stipulates that a "non-armed zone" of 100 kilometers south of the Great Wall should be set up, and China and Japan should withdraw their troops in the unarmed zone, and the public security of the unarmed zone shall be held by Chinese police.
The Tanggu Agreement is a humiliating agreement for China, which means that the Chinese government defaults to the existence of Manchuria and also has a certain degree of loss of sovereignty over North China.
The Tanggu Agreement, which was chaired and approved by Wang Zhaoming and Jiang Ruiyuan, was regarded by the general public as a traitorous treaty, which aroused strong criticism from public opinion. Wang Zhaoming believed that the government was correct in signing this treaty, and he viewed this matter from a national-level strategic perspective.
In the past, people criticized the government for losing territory without resisting, but now the ** army has resisted, but in the end it has lost more territory. China is a weak country, which determines that the invaded national disaster did not happen by chance.
With China's current national strength, no matter how much resistance it is, there is no possibility of victory. This is what we understood at the beginning. Since there is no hope of victory, why should we still resist? This is the reason for patriotism. It makes us know that we cannot win, but we still have to prepare for the war of resistance to the last soldiers and generals...
Many people now have two misconceptions. One is that they are too weak and believe that China must not resist Japan. If they fight with Japan, it will be the same as the Boxer Rebellion.
The other is too tough, just like a person venting in the wilderness, "killing all Japanese slaves" and "fighting to Tokyo". He dares to say anything crazy, and can still get people's applause.
Both of the above views are wrong. There is a minimum limit for the government to negotiate peacefully with Japan. As long as the armistice treaty is above the minimum limit that the government can tolerate, the government is determined to sign the armistice treaty, which is not only a temporary curse from the people, but also a resolute and responsible signing.
But if the armistice treaty is below the minimum amount that can be tolerated, the government will never sign it. This time the government and Japan signed a armistice treaty in some areas to allow the tired army and the poor to rest for a while, and their right and wrong interests will be judged by history.
Although the Tanggu Agreement temporarily solved the Northeast issue, the North China issue surfaced again. As a result, Jiang Ruiyuan was forced to abide by Song Zheyuan's light independence in the North China region, which made it possible to serve as a buffer between the Manchukuo and the ** government and maintain false peace.
Wang Zhaoming's reconciliation policy to Japan is not without merit. Japan is not an invading and expanding faction, but also a reconciliation faction who advocates reconciliation with China.
But the situation in China and Japan is the same. Both tough pro-war factions have the absolute upper hand. The dominance and policies of the Chinese and Japanese governments have been fiercely criticized by their respective nationals and social public opinion. Wang Zhaoming's policy of reconciliation against Japan has caused fierce opposition from the pro-war factions within the party, and even the calls for anti-Wang within the party are increasing.
After 1937, the Nanjing government began to take a tough attitude towards the "North China Autonomous Power". Since then, Song Zheyuan suffered from the pain of Japan and Nanjing, so he simply returned to his hometown in Shandong and avoided responsibility without asking about the political affairs of North China. On June 21, the Nanjing government issued a tough order to the Hebei-Chahar Government Committee, including the incorporation of the 29th Route Army and the suspension of the use of Hebei Province currency.
Then there was the Lugou Bridge Incident on July 7. Jiang Ruiyuan has always been a pro-war faction within the ** Party, which is very different from Wang Zhaoming's pro-political faction.
Excluding the Hualian, which had always been hiding its strength, if the ** government wanted to fight the war in full swing, there were only two results: sacrifice or surrender. This is a very cruel fact, but it had to be faced.
Without the intervention of the United States and the Soviet Union in the later period, Japan would have been undoubtedly a matter of destruction of China. In history, the Yuan Dynasty destroyed the Song Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty destroyed the Ming Dynasty, one percent of the bloody men died, and the rest became slaves of foreign tribes, which was no different.
At the beginning of the War of Resistance, most Western powers were on the verge of the Sino-Japanese War, and only Germany was willing to mediate. China asked the signatory countries of the Nine-Nine-Country Convention to hold a meeting to discuss sanctions on Japan's aggression violations of the Nine-Country Convention.
On November 3, 1937, the signatory countries of the Nine-Country Convention held a meeting in Brussels, Belgium. The Soviet representative invited by the meeting expressed support for China and advocated that countries impose collective sanctions on Japan. However, the US representative said that since the Japanese government had mediated by Germany, the US government believed that the Chinese representative's attitude should not be extreme, so as not to affect the mediation and stimulate Japan."
Although China is now chanting the slogan "Total War of Resistance and Sacrifice to the End", how many percent of the people are actually ready to sacrifice for the country?
Most people shout sacrifice, but the concept of sacrifice in their hearts is to let others sacrifice, not sacrifice. For the truth that most people are unwilling to say unwilling to sacrifice?
It is because they are afraid of the charge of treason and are afraid of taking responsibility for the destruction of the country. The result of China's war of resistance later fulfilled this sentence. Most people have made it their first goal to save their lives, and there are very few people who are truly brave enough to shed blood and sacrifice.
Jiang Ruiyuan also understood that China could not defeat Japan, and could only use the military power of a third country to fight against Japan. However, using the foreign team to fight Japan is also a very dangerous move. This is the so-called "leading tigers and driving away wolves". The foreign team will not help China fight for war free of charge, and the cost it demands may also be very high.
Later, the Soviet Union sent troops to the three northeastern provinces to help China drive away the Japanese, but at the cost of China, China had to hand over Outer Mongolia to the Soviet Union. The foreign establishment was the price Jiang Ruiyuan paid with the help of the third country to fight against Japan.
It now seems that the outcome of the Chinese and Japanese lords is not good. In Japan, Prime Minister Inukai Tsubasa was killed, and later many senior officials of the lords were killed one after another.
In China, Wang Zhaoming, the master of peace, was stabbed and almost died, and Tang Youren and others of the master of peace, were also assassinated. Under the circumstances at that time, for a high-ranking official, it took more courage to be a minority of peace, than to be a majority of warfare.
Because the senior officials of the main war faction call on others to bleed and sacrifice, they do not need to go directly to the battlefield and are not in danger of life, but the main war faction is risking their lives being assassinated by fanatics.
During the war, Japan was also full of fanatical clamor for the main war, but although the pro-war faction advocated war, it could not guarantee the victory of the war. After Japan was defeated and was severely punished by cede land compensation, the pro-peace faction was able to "rehabilitate". Only then did people regret not obey the pro-peace faction's advice at that time, and began to criticize those irresponsible pro-peace statements back then.
However, in the original time and space, China was the party-state education system, and its culture and history were "mandered" by the party. Such remarks were absolutely unable to appear.
The great economic panic that began in the United States in 1929 quickly affected the entire capitalist countries. The economic crisis was particularly serious and the United States and Germany, and Japan was no exception. After the great panic, the economy also fell into extreme depression.
The great economic panic has caused people to lose confidence in the free market capitalist system, and the planned economy of state-ruling is regarded by many as a panacea to solve the economic crisis.
The success of the Soviet Union's planned economy in the 1930s was already very eye-catching. After Hitler came to power, the national socialism of the correct planned economy also led Germany to emerge from the economic crisis within two years, which made people more doubt the backwardness of the capitalist system.
The Soviet-Russian redistritic system, the German-style national socialist system, and the Italian-style fascist system are all "pilot projects" to replace the traditional capitalist market economic system.
Under such an international situation, the young and strong people in the Japanese army also proposed to change the existing national system. They proposed to abolish the capitalist-type interest state with the purpose of pursuing profits and establish a new type of country where everyone destroys private affairs and serves the country loyally, and is based on morality rather than interests.
Of course, the capitalist ruling factions in Japan will not easily give up their regime. If the soldiers want to seize power, the best way is to create military disputes overseas and put Japan in an extraordinary wartime state. In this way, the soldiers can use military necessities as reasons to collect personal property, infringe on personal human rights, use national justice as an excuse to block all oppositions, and create necessary conditions for transforming the national system.
Although the national capitalist system established by Japanese soldiers during the war did not allow Japan to fight a war, it became the prototype of the state-dominated market economic system in which Japan developed its economy under the leadership of the state after the war.
However, in Japan, the redemption system was not successful, and no system of pride was established like the Soviet Union, Russia, China and Germany. Japan has never had the tradition of pride rule, but instead implemented a system of joint political discussion at the upper level.
Jiang Ruiyuan also understood that it was impossible to defeat Japan alone, and he had to use the military power of a third country to fight against Japan. Shortly after the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, he took the initiative to attack the Marine Corps stationed in Shanghai in Shanghai, trying to trap Shanghai, an international city in war and caused interference from the great powers of Britain, the United States and France.
However, Britain, the United States and France were unexpectedly indifferent to the Sino-Japanese War. Britain and France were busy dealing with Hitler in Europe and had no time to take into account the Far East affairs. The American people were in serious isolationism and were unwilling to be involved in foreign disputes.
If there is no foreign aid, China will undoubtedly lose. After the Chinese team retreated from Shanghai, Jiang Ruiyuan also began to consider mediation with Japan.
Germany had signed a three-country treaty with Japan and Italy at that time, and Germany was willing to mediate the Sino-Japanese War. The main reason was that China and Japan were both friendly countries of Germany.
At that time, European and American countries surrounded Hitler Germany. Germany did not have many internationally, so they attached great importance to their relationship with the ** government. Although China had no oil at that time, it was the main supplier of strategic metals such as nickel, and Germany's strategic metals mainly rely on China's supply.
In exchange, Germany "lent" a large amount of military equipment to China by borrowing money from China. This is why Jiang Ruiyuan's army was all German-style equipment in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, and it is also why he hired more than 30 German consultants.
After the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, Japan protested to Germany as an allies, demanding that Germany stop supplying weapons to China and recall military advisers in China. Under pressure from Japan, Germany had to stop supplying China's military advisers and recalled military advisers, but China and Germany are still friendly countries.
However, in a certain film, the educational and propaganda system that was distorted by the Red Gate was sympathetic to the Soviet Union and hated Germany. This is the so-called ungratefulness. The ignorant is the most tragic, especially the ignorant soul under the party-state education system, which is not lack of knowledge, but lack of wisdom.
After the Battle of Xuzhou and Hangzhou, the ** Army and the Chinese Army both showed the Chinese momentum on the front battlefield of the war against Japan. The Japanese military gradually felt a headache for the long-term development of the Sino-Japanese War and began to become interested in Yingzuo's peace plan.
In early July 1938, under the mediation of Kagesasa Akira, Takazo Takera had a talk with Japanese Army Minister Seishiro Itagaki. During the talks, Takazo Takera proposed that Wang Zhaoming take action to launch a peace movement from outside the government, hoping that Japan would provide it with favorable conditions.
The Japanese side agreed to support Wang Zhaoming in carrying out the "peace movement" with preferential conditions of "no territory and no compensation". Gao Zongwu returned to China on July 21.
On October 22, 1938, Wang Zhaoming and Zhou Fohai, Mei Siping, Tao Xisheng, Chen Bijun and others secretly held a meeting to discuss the specific plans of the peace movement.
Wang Zhaoming's original peace plan was to establish a new government in areas not occupied by the Japanese army, and then the new government accepted the occupied territory after the Japanese withdrawal, and achieved peace with Japan without ceding the territory or paying compensation.
If this plan can be realized, it will be quite acceptable for the Chinese, and Wang Zhaoming may not be scolded by the Chinese as a traitor. But in the end, it is impossible to defeat the number of days. Wang Zhaoming's peace plan is very different from his original idea, and even he has become a victim of political sacrifice.
The main battle and the two major factions have torn a complete China into two halves. The right and wrong here and the cause have long been buried in the ashes of history.
However, the ideological differences and the trauma that bring to the country and the people in the heart have just begun.
