While the Japanese military headquarters planned to allow the Onodera Wudi Fleet to escort supply supplies to Taiwan, the Japanese Army was also carrying out a new round of combat plans, hoping to resolve the crisis in Taiwan.

The new round of Japanese combat plans were proposed by the Kwantung Army. They accused the Japanese navy of being useless every day and put the Japanese army in Taiwan into a tough battle. Since the Tang army had never air strikes the Japanese Kwantung Army in the Northeast, they thought they were very powerful and did not take the Tang army seriously at all.

After the Japanese Kwantung Army created the Northeast Incident, it further planned to invade mainland China. It had been a financial rush because Japan was defeated by the Tang army in the Pacific and ceded land and paid compensation. Now the Kwantung Army proposed that if the transportation line in mainland China was opened, it could use the Taiwan Strait to transport materials from the mainland to Taiwan. At the same time, even if Taiwan was lost, the Japanese army seized the mainland and could make up for the losses.

Due to the Tang army's blockade and bombing of Japan's mainland, Japan's industry suffered severe damage, and the raw materials were extremely scarce. On the contrary, the Kanto Army still has many factories in the Northeast, and it has been operating for five or six years. At the same time, the Japanese military does need to win a victory to boost domestic morale, and it is indeed a good idea to attack the National Government Army of Soft Persimmon.

The Japanese never knew how big the land was, how bold the people were. They only knew how bold the people were. They had no chance of winning when they went to war with the Tang Empire, and they planned to go to war with China in full swing.

Of course, Japan was also forced to helplessly. Because the Xi'an Incident broke out not long ago, Chiang Kai-shek was forced to reach peace clauses and jointly fight against Japan with **. In this way, mainland China has formed a full-scale war of resistance. A comprehensive war between China and Japan is inevitable.

The National Government also made a move to Japan in the Second Tang-Japanese War and the Tang army was in an advantageous situation. After several rounds of negotiations with the Tang Empire, the Tang Empire promised to provide a large number of weapons and low-interest loans to the National Government. After the National Government received these guarantees, it was only after preparing for a war against Japan. The Xi'an Incident was just an excuse for the National Government to get a step forward.

The Tang Empire gave considerable assistance to the National Government this time. The first batch of military aid alone included 36 mid-range heavy bombers of the JF-11, 200 streamlined land-based Raptor fighters, 160 leopard main battle tanks in the German Wehrmacht, 36 155mm heavy howitzers. 30,000 m1 submachine guns, more than 2,000 various military vehicles, 3 million sets of Tang army uniforms and combat uniforms. Including steel helmets, guns, sabers and military boots, the National Government not only changed the various badges and logos of the Tang Empire on it to the blue sky and white sun logos, but also gave them to the troops for use intact.

It can be said that the entire army, navy and air force troops are equipped with Tang army from the outside. At the same time, the Tang Empire sent trainers to train more than two million ** to transmit the values, world outlook and life concepts of the Tang Empire, promote the ancient Chinese civilization concepts, and fundamentally eliminate the factors influencing Japanese concepts in the National Revolutionary Army since modern times.

For the officers and soldiers of the National Revolutionary Army, they naturally agreed and accepted the concept of the Tang Empire, which had the same clan and origin. Once upon a time, they had to travel to Japan to study because there was only one Japan in the East that they had to travel east to study. Now a stronger Tang Empire has appeared in the East. It is still a Chinese country, and they finally found the path to revitalization. Naturally, there is no need to learn from Japan anymore.

From the standpoint of the Tang Empire, they generously assisted the National Revolutionary Army in various weapons and equipment on a large scale and sent instructors to train them. For the time being, it was to jointly fight against the Japanese army. In the long run, it was the Tang Empire's subtle influence on the National Government, and it was not ruled out that they would dominate the entire China in the future.

Of course, for the Tang Empire, its influence on the Communist Army was somewhat difficult. Although the Tang Empire distributed various weapons, equipment, military uniforms, guns and ammunition to the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army despite the various obstructions of the National Government, it distributed various weapons, equipment, military uniforms, guns and ammunition to the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army. A large number of instructors were also sent, and the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army were also happy to accept it. However, there was a political commissar in their troops, and the impact of the Tang Army's concepts and ideas was much weaker than that of **.

However, the Tang Empire was not in a hurry. It continued to exert influence in a gradual way, and sooner or later they would accept the ideas of the Tang Empire.

Originally, the Tang Empire also equipped the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army with planes and tanks, but unfortunately there were no talents in this regard among them. It also took time for the Tang army's instructors to train them, and they could not form combat effectiveness in a short period of time.

At this time, the Communist army only wanted to stop the war with ** and live peacefully together from now on. For this reason, they even wore the blue sky and white sun sign and were willing to accept the adaptation and leadership of the National Government. Zhang Meng was attracted by this. He knew that this was an opportunity to re-cooperate between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. He did not want to see the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, because it was the biggest catastrophe for China, and the personnel and economic losses far exceeded that of the War of Resistance Against Japan. Zhang Meng hoped that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party would no longer have civil wars. This was also the purpose of the Tang Empire's generous assistance to the Communist Army, hoping to establish a connection point between the two sides with the Tang Empire as a link to stop this catastrophe.

Of course, no one knows Zhang Meng's real purpose, and no one thanks him for his secret efforts for national justice, but he doesn't care about these things. Sooner or later, history will correctly evaluate him.

The second time the Kuomintang and the Communist Party cooperated, and Tang and Zhong fought against Japan, and the Japanese's nerves suddenly became tense.

In order to take the initiative, on July 7, 1937, the Japanese army took the lead in attacking Wailugou Bridge in Peiping and fired the first shot of the Sino-Japanese War.

Just the night before, Zhang Xinhai passed away in Shanghai. Zhang Meng arrived in Shanghai on a special plane to attend Zhang Xinhai's memorial service. He also held a formal meeting with Lin Sen, Chairman of the National Government, in Shanghai to exchange opinions on the future coordinated combat between the two armies of Tang and Zhongzhong to build a joint anti-Japanese front.

During this period, Zhang Meng also talked with Zhang Wei for a long time, and finally persuaded her to return to the Tang Empire and continue to serve as a foreign minister. Zhang Wei was unable to help Zhang Meng because of Zhang Xinhai. Now that Zhang Xinhai has passed away, Zhang Wei has no restrictions and promised to help.

For Zhang Meng, another surprise was seeing Han Qingxuan again. What surprised Zhang Meng was that Han Qingxuan was no longer the eldest daughter of the Han family, and even drew a clear line with the National Government because she had joined the ** and became a ** warrior. All of this was because of Zhang Meng. Han Qingxuan liked Zhang Meng from the bottom of her heart. In order to give Zhang Meng a new look, she joined the **.
