1928, June 7th, 8:20 AM. Zhang Ze finally received a telegram from the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Regarding the annihilation of the Japanese Kwantung Army, the Japanese side expressed strong protest. The telegram even stated that from today onwards, they would officially declare war on the Northeast and seek diplomatic assistance from the United States, Britain, and France. They would punish Zhang Lin and the Northeast Fengjun. The Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the telegram severely criticized the annihilation of the Northeast Kwantung Army, claiming that this was a war against humanity. However, when Zhang Ze saw this so-called declaration of war telegram, he sneered!
"Cruel, if this is cruel, then what is the Japanese massacre in Lushun?？”
After Zhang Ze finished reading the declaration of war, he had an idea in his heart. The declaration of war by the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not have much power. Even the Japanese Army Ministry did not mention it. It seemed that the Japanese were still stunned by the annihilation of the Kwantung Army. Yes, they were dumbfounded. So until now, the Japanese Army and the Japanese General Staff had not come out to declare war on the Northeast. This was why Japan used the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to declare war!
It seemed that the Japanese had decided to sacrifice the Kwantung Army. After the war in Northeast China, even the Japanese had to avoid it. Moreover, in this war to wipe out the Kwantung Army, the combat effectiveness displayed by the Feng army made the Japanese side think twice!!
"Han-qing, immediately negotiate with the Japanese. While the Japanese have yet to recover from their defeat, mobilize a large number of troops to suppress the Yalu River!!”
After Feng Yong, who had just returned from Liaodong Airport, received Zhang Ze's telegram, he could most likely confirm that Zhang Lin and the old-fashioned people had reached a consensus to peacefully resolve the power transfer in Northeast China. Although Zhang Ze did not know why the old-fashioned people would suddenly compromise, Zhang Ze knew that it was his father's help. His father's love was like a mountain. For the first time, Zhang Ze felt the weight of Zhang Lin's father's love for Zhang Ze!
Zhang Ze nodded. Indeed, before the Japanese decided to start a real war, if they increased their leverage and mobilized heavy forces to defend the Yalu River, they would put great pressure on Shirakawa Yoshinori on the Korean Peninsula. Would they have the ability to attack the Yalu River defense line?
Immediately, Zhang Ze gave the highest mobilization order in the northeast. He wanted to transfer one army from the 1st, 2nd, 5th, and 6th legions to the Yalu River defense line. He also wanted to transfer the Northeast Air Force, Northeast Armored Tanks, and the original Northeast 4th Legion to the Yalu River defense line. Zhang Ze wanted to station 100,000 troops on the Yalu River defense line. At the same time, he wanted to pull the Northeast Artillery Corps and the two independent Artillery Brigades over!!
They were playing psychological warfare, betting that the Japanese would not dare to start a war here. After Yang Yuting's 4th Legion captured Anton, they cut off the railway leading to the Korean Peninsula. This lifeline from Pusan to Fengtian was completely cut off with Zhang Ze's strength!!
In 1910, Japan forced North Korea to sign a merger treaty and set up a governor's office on the Korean Peninsula to officially colonize it. Compared to the northeast, the Japanese education here was even crazier. Japan forced the official language of the Korean Peninsula to be Japanese, forcing children of appropriate age to learn Japanese culture, wear Japanese clothes, learn Japanese etiquette, and even tamper with the history of the Korean Peninsula... They turned the Korean people into colonial slaves. From the moment they were born, they had been branded!!
This was what Japan wanted to do, enslavement!!
If one generation was not enough, then two generations!!
One day, the Korean Peninsula would truly become Japan!!
Of course, the Japanese were doing the same thing in Taiwan…
They were not afraid of occupation, military invasion, or massacres. What they were afraid of was that a nation would be assimilated and successfully brainwashed by the so-called Japanism!!
The cold streets of Hanoi were filled with Japanese medicine flags. The Japanese had been transporting mineral resources and human resources to Japan for so many years on the Korean Peninsula. Just like the three entourage divisions on the Korean Peninsula, there were a large number of Japanese officers mixed in. At the same time, the training, equipment, and other aspects of support of the entourage divisions were much worse than the first-class divisions in Japan. Naturally, the Japanese military maintained its advantage in combat strength. In the past few years, although Japan had more or less resisted North Korea's rule, in general, no one in North Korea dared to make a move!!
North Korea's Governor-General's Office, Governor Shirakawa Yoshinori, was a general of the Japanese army. He had a high position and even Emperor Tamahito had to consider his position. At the same time, as a veteran of the Imperial Army, Shirakawa Yoshinori had many officers who were his students!
"General, is the Imperial Army really going to compromise with the Northeast?”
Okamura Yasuji, who was known as the new star of the Imperial General Staff, was currently gilding his gold on the Korean Peninsula. He looked at Shirakawa Yoshinori, who was sitting in his seat. As a founding member of the army in the post-Meiji era, it was obvious that in his eyes, no one in the army was more qualified than him!
Shirakawa Masayoshi narrowed his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking. The Great Japan Empire had its own General Staff. For some reason, the Empire had not officially declared war on the Northeast. The power of a Ministry of Foreign Affairs was too small!!
"Okamura, the empire must have their own considerations for doing this. Don't think too much!”
Okamura clenched his fists tightly. He couldn't believe it. Why was the Japanese Empire so cowardly this time? More than 20,000 soldiers of the Kwantung Army were eaten just like that…
No, Okamura's ranking had to go back. He had to find his teacher, his teacher, and convince the General Staff Headquarters to fight against the northeast. The Manchurian region was the lifeline of the empire. Without the northeast, the empire would no longer have the capital to become a top-tier power!!
"Alright, General Bai Chuan, I'll return immediately in the afternoon!”
Shirakawa Masayoshi sighed softly. Looking at Okamura's ranking, he knew that this rising star of the General Staff was also a war maniac. Just like Honjo Shigeru and Daisaku Kawamoto, he still lacked respect for China…Just like the assassination attempt at Huanggutun, it was impossible for a normal empire to do it. However, the Kwantung Army suffered a huge defeat. However, it seemed that in five or ten years, if the empire was ruled by these people... It seemed that radical and risky military operations were still unavoidable!
At the same time, under Zhang Ze's highest military order, the Feng army gathered their main forces and stationed them at the Yalu River defense line. Even if there was no war, the Yalu River defense line would definitely have to be heavily guarded in the future. Whether it was the garrison that attacked the Korean Peninsula or the garrison that defended the Korean Peninsula, they had to choose a general who was good at fighting to guard the border and intimidate Shirakawa Yoshinori!!
