At the end of May 2015, Hua Fei personally formed an absolutely confidential institution for research laboratory. This laboratory brought together the top medical scientists, mathematicians, chemists, physicists, biologists and military strategists that Hua Fei has mastered. Although this group of young people selected by Hua Fei are not very famous in the international academic circle, let alone achieve many achievements, some even returned to China early without graduation and obtaining a certificate, following Nikola Tesla as an assistant.

These young people were careful and carefully studied after Huafei made a fortune in the Shanghai Stock Tide and returned to his hometown. Most of them were sent to famous foreign institutions in one by one or in groups to further study. He could definitely rest assured that his loyalty and respect and gratitude to Huafei were just a telegram. They didn't even have time to pack their luggage, so they brought a large number of academic notes and professional books and quickly rushed back to China.

This laboratory, which had only eleven people at the beginning, was quietly established in the late June 1915 in early summer, when almost no outsiders knew about it. Hua Fei gave them the first research topic to chemical gas warfare, studying this new type of extraordinary weapon, focusing on how to prevent and resist this form of war. Preventing ultimate infectious diseases such as influenza, plague, plague, cholera, etc. are used as weapons, and how to take preventive measures.

No one knows why Hua Fei suddenly established this laboratory, and even let these elites studying abroad return to China early before completing their studies, but none of the dozen people complained. In their opinion, Hua Fei could take such an attitude of importance when the poison gas chemical warfare first appeared. This is the plan and layout of a strategist, and this is the forward-looking vision that the great heroes in their minds should have.

Just as the extraordinary war research laboratory was being built, Britain and France, especially Britain, were gradually slowing down. The British still could not lose a huge friend at this moment. Although this friend was vague about Britain and France, he was very active in exporting goods and materials. The British government was unwilling to push Huafei to the German camp because of a commercial case. Although the British could choose to strengthen their alliance with Japan and be hostile to Huafei. However, Japan's military power made the British uneasy, and the second was that Japan's strength was not in line with the interests of Britain in the Far East. Third, if the Far East was re-entered into the war, it would greatly affect the British's material export in the Far East colonies, and even affect India. The possibility of Britain's allies Japan sending troops to Europe was even more distant.

What scares Britain the most is that once Huafei enters the Allied camp, Germany may send their legions to enter Central Asia from the allied country Turkey, so as to come to China to unite Huafei and open up a new war. This is not a fantasy. Opening up a battlefield in the Far East is of great strategic significance for the Germans. Just send more than a dozen divisions, more than 200,000 people, and join the Allied Forces of the Chinese Enclave, the Chinese Beiyang government can only surrender to this coalition, and the Japanese army is still hopeless.

Through China, the coalition forces of the Germans and Huafei could not only attack Tsarist Russia, but also attack British and French colonies such as Hong Kong and Vietnam. Advance westward and attack India, causing the British to lose this largest import of raw materials.

This is not the British's unfair concern, but the latest information obtained by their local spy agencies. A senior general of the German ** side made such a suggestion to the German Emperor. A few senior German Army staff officials believed that when the German navy was restricted by the British and did nothing, the German Army should open a strategic breakthrough. And China, nothing is their choice.

Hua Fei seemed to be unaware of the British's concern. At this time, all his energy was attracted by a detailed information. This information was obtained by the Military Information Bureau, but it was not an inland military intelligence, but an island that Hua Fei had stared at in front of the map, Taiwan Island.

Since the Sino-Japanese War of 1895, a treaty of Shimonoseki made her a Japanese colony. From 1895 to more than 20 years from 1915, the Taiwanese people carried out countless anti-Japanese struggles. In the past 20 years, more than 400,000 loyal and righteous men in Taiwan were killed. Until the end of the Xilai'an incident in 1915, Taiwan's armed anti-Japanese struggle has basically ceased.

And this time the local information is about Yu Qingfang, the leader of the Xilai'an incident.

Yu Qingfang was originally a police officer in Tainan City. Later, he saw that the Taiwanese were oppressed under the colonial rule of Japan. He resigned and borrowed religion to launch anti-Japanese activities. The impact was getting bigger and bigger. The Japanese Governor's Office of Taiwan was preparing to issue a wanted order. Yu Qingfang had some information and found a businessman in the autonomous region in Taiwan. Through the help of the merchant, he finally contacted an outside line in the military information department.

So the Military Intelligence Bureau quickly sent intelligence officers to Taiwan and contact Yu Qingfang. Yu Qingfang contacted the autonomous region very simply because he wanted to get weapons assistance from the autonomous region and launch a decisive battle against Japan. The intelligence officer knew very well that Taiwan had a strategic position for China. He dared not be careless and quickly returned to the autonomous region. The intelligence was transmitted to Huayan as quickly as possible. Huayan also realized the importance of this intelligence and personally sent it to Huafei.

After receiving this information, Hua Fei quickly turned to contemplation, not mentioning the integrity of territorial land and the sacredness of sovereign land. Taiwan is obviously of great importance to China's military strategic position. If Taiwan had been in the hands of the Chinese enclave, then the possibility of blocking the Taiwan Strait in the naval battle against Japan would increase infinitely. The Japanese would also weaken the power of the submarine troops in the Chinese enclave. With Taiwan as a barrier, it would be easier to enter the east to block the Bashi Strait and the Balintang Strait. In that case, Japan's sea lifeline would be hit hard.

However, the armistice against Japan has only been a few months. For this matter, another war against Japan will be launched. Not only will it be extremely angered by Britain and France internationally, but it is also very likely to lose support from the United States. Moreover, Taiwan is different from Shandong. Huafei can rely on the strength of the army and be blocked by a strait. It will be infinitely weakened without strong land control and maritime power. It cannot suppress Japan's powerful naval fleet. If you want to land on Taiwan's island to fight, you will not only pay a heavy price, but also have a slim possibility of winning.

Moreover, after a war, the autonomous region's finances have long dried up and the deficit has reached its limit. It is urgent to rest and recuperate. Taking advantage of this precious opportunity to develop industry and commerce with all its might, and to start a war rashly again. It is not only a powerful measure to take, but also very likely to completely destroy the current good situation.

But if we don’t send troops, can we just sit here and watch the Japanese suppress Yu Qingfang and kill them, which may be the last group of people to resist the Taiwanese. From then on, Taiwan will become the Japanese agricultural development base and the outpost for them to move south. Not only will the Japanese sphere of influence completely block the offshores of China, but it will also control the shipping of the Huafei Autonomous Region.

However, from a series of current intelligence, after the Japanese Sedorine cabinet came to power, it has begun to strengthen the construction of Taiwan's naval bases, significantly increasing the number of cruisers and destroyers in Taiwan. It has also begun to vigorously build two major ports in Keelung and Kaohsiung, and build relevant ship repair equipment and docks to form two major military sites and maritime transportation centers in the north and the south.

"Commander, why not send the First Army to take this opportunity to get Taiwan Island back!" Wu Tao, who was standing aside, said angrily after learning about the situation.

"The First Army? Then we will start another war? Do you think the current financial resources of the autonomous region can continue to support a new war?"

Wu Tao was silent. Looking at Hua Fei staring at the map and pondered hard, he couldn't help but say, "Commander, do you want to call the people from the Staff Office?"

The Office of Staff is the Office of Change Planning. Because he is used to the title of General Staff, most people around Huafei are used to using the Office of Staff to refer to the new Office of Change Planning.

Hua Fei wrapped his chest with one hand and touched his chin with the other hand and slowly said, "Well, it seems that this can be done. OK, I have basically had an idea. Go and call Li Yue and Cao Yuan, and ask the headquarters to prepare some information about the lower-level officers for me, to be brave, wise, kind and forbearing officers."

"yes!"

Li Yue gradually jumped from an unknown person to Hua Fei's core staff. Although he was transferred from the military's local staff and entered the Change Planning Office, strictly speaking, it was a transformation from the military system to the political field. On the surface, Li Yue was transferred from Hua Fei's direct power center, but in fact, whether it is Li Yue's current local rights or Hua Fei's trust in him, they have risen to a height that has never been reached.

With the help of Li Yue and Cao Yuan, Hua Fei's plan was further revised. What is rare is that after they learned the specific information, they all agreed with Hua Fei's decision, believing that the autonomous region was not suitable for a large-scale war at this time, and also believed that this matter did not need to be discussed on a large scale, but should be based on confidentiality.

The plan is to secretly distribute about one regiment of elite and reliable troops without public declaration of war on Japan, carry German weapons and equipment and Japanese rifles seized from the Shandong battlefield to enter Taiwan. Contact Yu Qingfang, or conduct guerrilla warfare alone in the mountainous areas of central and eastern Taiwan, attack Japanese troops and officials, and destroy the Japanese rule in Taiwan. Promote nation-state awareness, lead and launch Taiwan's protest and return movement.

The key to this plan is an elite guerrilla armed force that must put pressure on the Japanese army in Taiwan, but they cannot obtain reliable evidence to prove that this is the army sent by the Huafei Autonomous Region. There is no need to fight head-on with Japan in Taiwan, and fully utilize the essence of guerrilla warfare. However, since its establishment, the National Defense Forces have mostly fought strange wars and hard wars, and the tactics such as guerrilla have rarely been used. Therefore, when choosing officers, they need to be resourceful, calm and tolerant, and good at adapting to changes.

Finally, Li Yue and Cao Yuan had a disagreement only on whether to unite Yu Qingfang's power. Li Yue believed that Yu Qingfang and others were just a group of unorganized violent armed civilians. Joining with them certainly would allow the guerrilla infiltrating army to get help from the beginning, but this would also delay the guerrilla army's mobility and combat effectiveness, and would more likely expose the secrets of this armed force. Cao Yuan believed that most of the guerrilla army chose to be soldiers in the Soviet area. Without local people as guides, the guerrilla army's situation would be difficult, and the identity of their outsiders would be easily exposed.

Both of them made sense, and Hua Fei had not considered this detail yet. After careful consideration, Hua Fei decided to choose the officers sent to Taiwan before deciding on this detail. The officers who will lead the infiltrate into the army will have a say in this matter.

Three hours later, the headquarters sent detailed information from five people. Hua Fei just took a brief look and immediately chose one person very much. This person was considered an old man from the National Defense Forces. As early as when Hua Fei formed a new revolutionary army, he was a soldier in the First Regiment. Later, due to his military achievements, he was quickly qualified to be the squad leader of a squad of the First Regiment.

This person is Feng Zisong, now the deputy commander of the Fifth Division of the Second Army. He started from a student army who accidentally joined the student army and followed Hua Fei, he was promoted to the level of deputy commander within a few years. Although the speed is not eye-catching in the National Defense Forces, it also achieved very quickly. And one thing is very worthy of Hua Fei's surprise. Feng Zisong's direct leadership of the troops has always been the unit with the lowest rate of combat losses in many battles. Even on the last time in Shandong and Japan, he personally led a regiment of more than 1,000 people, abandoned the positional warfare and adopted flexible harassment and attacks. After many encounters, they annihilated more than 1,200 Japanese troops, but the combat losses were less than half, which was an extremely impressive result.

However, in the battle, Feng Zisong's tactics were criticized by many as a behavior of fearing and avoiding war. Therefore, although he made outstanding achievements in Shandong, he was still only promoted to the first-level military rank, and his position was also mentioned to be less powerful than the position of deputy division commander in the regiment commander.

Feng Zisong was about twenty-six or seven years old. Although he was a few years older than Hua Fei, he always looked like a harmless smile. He was also a military uniform, but when he wore it, he always felt a casual feeling. Even when he saw Hua Fei, he did not seem so restrained, but smiled very naturally, "Commander, Staff General Li, Captain Cao, suddenly called me from the army, not to promote me!"

Since Cao Yuan had been in the military police for a long time, many people still call Cao Yuan Captain Cao.

"It's true to promote you, and the commander wants to invite you to a meal in person!" Li Yue's smile was completely different from Feng Zisong. Although he looked happy, he was so cold that he couldn't feel that he was smiling.

Feng Zisong was a little stunned. Although he knew that it was definitely not easy to do things when he came to see Commander Hua this time, Li Yue's "serious" smile made him snore in his heart. He thought that the commander also thought that he had adopted a ground tactic in Shandong to fear the enemy and die, so he wanted to punish him? To be honest, Feng Zisong was not much afraid when the commander Hua was facing. But looking at the happy smile of Staff Li, he had no reason to be in his heart.

Hua Fei stood up from his seat, took the information on the table and handed it to Feng Zisong, and said slowly, "Please read him as fast as possible, and then guess what we called you here!"

Feng Zisong had long been curious. He glanced at him and swept past the information about Taiwan. Then he looked up and said in surprise, "Commander... do you mean that you want to attack Taiwan?"

As soon as Feng Zisong said, he immediately realized that something was wrong. If the commander wanted to send troops to attack Taiwan, there was no reason to call himself. The military agents of the headquarters

Officials, no one is more qualified than themselves!

"Commander, you might have asked me to go to Taiwan!"

"No, you are not going to Taiwan alone!" Hua Fei turned around, stared at Feng Zisong's eyes and said quickly, "I'll give you a regiment of troops. If you have any difficulties, please raise them now!"

Feng Zisong's big mouth closed for a minute, then he drooped his head and said dejectedly, "Commander, if this is your order, Zisong, as a soldier, will never hesitate to die for honor. However, there is no need to implicate the brothers of a regiment, let them go to die with me!"

"Who said that you were going to die? I asked you to go to war!"

"War?" If it weren't for Hua Fei's identity, Feng Zisong really wanted to jump up and curse, "Yes, I know that Japan has not many troops in Taiwan. There are only two garrisons in total, less than 7,000 people. However, even though I am full of confidence in the brothers of the National Defense Forces, we are going deep behind the enemy and fighting to the death with the enemy. It's hard to say that there will be a backup. How can we fight this battle?"

"Commander, if you really want to destroy all the Japanese in Taiwan, give me a division... No, at least I have to give me four regiments of troops. I will definitely destroy all the Japanese troops in Taiwan at the lowest price. Of course, you have to ensure that the Japanese army will not continue to increase troops from the sea!"

"Who said I want to wipe out the Japanese army in Taiwan? If I plan to start a decisive battle, what will I call you alone?"

Feng Zisong was originally planning to explain in detail his combat plan in his mind, but Hua Fei's words immediately shocked him again.

Hua Fei did not continue to pick Feng Zisong's appetite, and immediately said directly, "I asked you to take off your military uniform. It's not only you, but a regiment soldier you chose. All take off your military uniform and go to Taiwan!"

Feng Zisong's eyes fell into deep thought. In just a few seconds, he seemed to have come up with the key to the problem, and said unexpectedly, "Commander, what do you mean..."

"Yes!" Hua Fei nodded, "You are not allowed to tell anyone that you are soldiers of the National Defense Forces. The files of all your officers and soldiers will be converted into death. The original files will be saved by me personally! You can choose a whole-organized corps, but before arriving in Taiwan, you are not allowed to tell anyone your combat plan and mission. In addition, in order to facilitate your communication with the indigenous people of Taiwan, you can select some soldiers from Fujian Province from the various troops of the National Defense Forces to serve as guides and translators!"

"Your mission is guerrilla warfare, not to find the Japanese army, fight them to expel them from Taiwan Province. We will get Taiwan back sooner or later, but not now. We must prepare for the next war against Japan, without using powerful force to warn the Japanese, they will not be willing to hand over Taiwan!"

"So your mission is to make the Japanese feel that the Taiwanese resistance movement has not ended, but has become more and more intense.

It also makes Taiwanese feel the hope of resistance and will not let the fire of resistance be destroyed. All your standard weapons are left behind, only the weapons "sent" to the Qingdao Germans or the weapons of the Japanese seized from Shandong!"

"In addition, you will bring more than 100 guns as a gift to Yu Qingfang. As for whether to cooperate with Yu Qingfang and how to cooperate with him, you will be in charge after you arrive in Taiwan and contact him after you get to know him! I just need to remind you to pay attention to one thing that is, never fight head-on with the main Japanese forces. Taking the preservation of strength as the basis, appropriately develop and supplement the local Taiwanese people into the army and expand the army's organization and strength."

"For the outside world, you can only say that you are mainland immigrants, and you definitely do not tell your true identity, or even after being captured. After you arrive in Taiwan, you need to tell every soldier yourself. If you think you can't do this, then you can let them return by boat!"

"This time I enter Taiwan, the essence of tactical geography is guerrilla warfare. Remember to follow the five basic principles of combat methods: choosing combat locations reasonably, deploying troops quickly, distributing troops reasonably, selecting combat opportunities reasonably, and retreating quickly after the battle. And once you enter Taiwan, you will lose all our support and supplies, and everything depends on your own efforts. This guerrilla warfare may only take one or two years, or it may last for more than ten years. You must be fully prepared for this. If you think you cannot meet this condition, I allow you to withdraw now!"

When Hua Fei said these words, even Feng Zisong, who had always had an unruly smile, put away casually, and after hearing this, he looked serious and fell into thinking. Feng Zisong knew in his heart that the commander had chosen him must have been unreasonable. The tactics that made him unable to be competent for the position of the commander have now become the tactics that the commander has taken full advantage. This life experience is really speechless!

Will Feng Zisong give up? Obviously not. Although he doesn't know how long it will take, and although he doesn't know whether he can return to his hometown alive. But without mentioning the sacredness and necessity of this war for the country, if he can still come back alive, then what awaits him is definitely not the position of a division commander. And his name of Feng Zisong will be recorded in history books incredibly dazzlingly.

"Commander, I'll go, but we have difficulties!" Feng Zisong said with a look of dismay.

"If you have any difficulties, just raise them. If you don't mention them now, I won't recognize them if you mention them in the future!"

"Commander, it may be difficult to pull away a group of brothers in an organization. Because I don't know how long it will take for this trip, I don't want to bring them with me for those brothers who have families or friends at home. So I hope the commander can allow me to choose my own soldiers in other legions!"

Hua Fei thought about it and immediately said, "Yes, but it is only allowed to be selected within the Second Army, and we cannot make a big fuss. We will conduct a family census for the entire army, starting with the Second Army. If you serve as the deputy leader of the census group, who you are interested in, give me a list. Remember, you cannot take away the officers of other regiments. This is a hard rule!"

Feng Zisong seemed to have to fight for it, but after thinking about it, he finally gave up. He immediately laughed and said, "The last difficulty is, Commander, look, our brothers who go to Taiwan are all homeless. If this trip lasts for ten years, wouldn't it delay everyone's marriage? So... so please think of a shift similar to a shift..."

"Absolutely not possible!" Hua Fei immediately rejected, "But your problem must be considered. Let's do this. If the other party is willing, I allow you to solve your personal problems on the spot and lift the restrictions on the National Defense Forces' prohibition of getting married with the resident woman. However, it must be the other party. Otherwise, if you are investigated, you will be sent to the military court, and I will not plead for you!"
Chapter completed!
