However, now that Qin Yan was here and had a cheat like the Total War System, would he allow the Japanese to occupy China for long?
This was absolutely impossible.
Zhang Zhizhong sighed." You're right. If Ryukyu had been occupied by the Japanese for more than 40 years, how many people would still remember that they were still Chinese? I'm interrupting. Continue."”
Qin Yan nodded." It's impossible for the East Asian Kingdom to swallow all of us in one bite. There's a saying in China that goes,'A snake that can't swallow an elephant when its heart is not strong'."”
"Snakes can only eat animals like frogs and mice, but it's absolutely impossible to swallow an elephant in one breath. Although we're weak and can't stand up yet, once we stand up, we can still stomp it to death.”
Zhang Zhizhong praised," Well said. Even a small country in the East wants to swallow China. They still lack good teeth and a stomach!"”
Qin Yan continued," So, my suggestion is that we don't fight with the Dongyang Kingdom and continue to accumulate our strength. If we want to fight, we can't fight on a small scale. We have to blossom on all fronts and let the Dongyang Kingdom fall into the quagmire of war.”
"Just like a drug addict, they sink deeper and deeper. When they wake up, no matter how hard they struggle, they can't break free.”
When Zhang Zhizhong heard Qin Yan's thoughts, he suddenly said,""I'm afraid that little Japan won't give us too much time.”
Qin Yan nodded and said," That's right. However, with the Japanese's current strength, it's impossible for them to start an all-out war with us. Therefore, we still have time to prepare. After all, opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. We still have at least five to six years to prepare.”
"Right now, the warlords in the country are fighting and the government's decrees are not working. The first thing we have to do is to solve the problem of the southwest warlords. Only by integrating the strength of the whole country can we have a chance to fight the Japanese.”
"How can you be so sure that the Japanese parliament will start a war five or six years later?" Zhang Zhizhong asked.”
Qin Yan replied," The Japanese invaded the northeast of our country in order to plunder our resources. Then, they would shift the blame to our country and solve the economic crisis. Now that they have a forward base to attack our country, they will definitely spy on the northern region.”
"In order to start a war, the Japanese have to increase their military spending. Five to six years is enough for them to accumulate their strength. If they don't start a war, they will collapse on their own.”
"You're right." Zhang Zhizhong nodded in agreement.”
Qin Yan sighed helplessly. Not only did Zhang Xiaoliu give up the Northeast to the Japanese, but he also did not move the Shengjing Munitions Factory away. Who knew how many Chinese people would die in the future because of the ammunition produced by this Munitions Factory?”
Shengjing Munitions Factory was the number one Munitions Factory in the Far East! Not only could they produce firearms, but they could also produce artillery. They could even produce heavy artillery!
If they moved to the mainland or directly blew up the entire place, then the Japanese would not have to fight so hard.
Zhang Zhizhong sighed and did not say anything.
Qin Yan continued,"The second point is the strategy that I mentioned, which is to coordinate guerrilla warfare with regular warfare, accumulate small victories into a big victory, and exchange space for time."”
"Currently, the Japanese army has occupied the northeast and will definitely advance to the north. Once the war starts, the Japanese may attack from the north to the south with the strength of the entire country. North China belongs to the plains, which is beneficial for the Japanese army to exert their firepower advantage and mobility.”
"But fortunately, we have the natural barrier of the Yellow River," said Zhang Zhizhong."It's a pity that we rely on the Yellow River for defense.”
Qin Yan didn't answer Zhang Zhizhong's question. He couldn't tell him that Han Fuqu, the leader of Lu Province, had directly given the Yellow River to the Japanese army!
"There is a lot of pressure in North China, so my suggestion is that once the Japanese army moves south from North China, we must attack the Japanese Marine Corps stationed in Shanghai and force them to fight on two fronts.”
"This is indeed a good idea," said Zhang Zhizhong.”
"The third point is about a protracted war.”
Zhang Zhizhong muttered, and his eyes lit up."That's right. The small territory of Japan is too small to withstand a protracted war. This is indeed the only way to deal with the Japanese. Qin Yan, you're really good at this.”
"Headmaster, you should be clear about the geography of our country, right?" Qin Yan smiled. Our country's terrain is high in the west and low in the east. The Japanese will definitely attack from the north to the south and from the east to the west. This is a typical climbing attack. We can resist them step by step while consolidating our rear and dragging the Japanese into a protracted war.”
"Although the small Japan is more powerful than us, once the front line is stretched, it will be difficult to continue. If the southeast is lost, we will retreat to central China. If central China is lost, we will retreat to the southwest. The southwest is mountainous and is not conducive to mechanized advancement.”
" Even if the Japanese conquer the Central China region, they will need more troops to guard the area due to the expansion of the occupied area. The logistics will also be stretched. Most importantly, the Japanese's spirit will also be exhausted by us. In the end, the other side can only enter a stalemate and wait for the final counterattack.”
" Our industrial base is too weak," Zhang Zhizhong said worriedly." Even if we enter a stalemate, we might not be able to defeat the Japanese, let alone counterattack."”
"That's why we have to set up a guerrilla zone behind the enemy's back when we are fighting on the front line. We are responsible for attacking the logistics transportation line of the Japanese and reducing the pressure on the front line."”
"Moreover, we can afford to waste our energy. The Japanese have occupied the northeast and threatened Mao Xiong's Far East. Therefore, for the peace of the Far East, Mao Xiong will definitely cooperate with us.”
" Most importantly, although the northeast is rich in coal mines and iron mines, it does not have the oil and rubber that the Japanese need. Now that the Third Reich is rising, Yingguo will definitely be dragged to Europe, leaving only the United States in the entire Pacific Ocean. The Japanese will definitely take the risk and start a war with Yingguo and the United States.”
"When that time comes, it won't be us begging them, but they will come begging us.”
Zhang Zhizhong was very shocked. His face could not help but reveal an incredulous expression. He said in surprise,"The Japanese are going to start a war with the US? That's impossible!"
Qin Yan smiled and said," I'm just guessing. After all, the Japanese army and navy are not on good terms. The army proposed to go north, which means to attack Mao Xiong. However, with Mao Xiong's strength, they might run into a wall. At that time, the navy will propose a plan to go south. Yingguo will be delayed in Europe, and the only country left in the Pacific Ocean is the United States. They will definitely take the risk. After all, they are gamblers. Gamblers are very bold.”
Ever since the Meiji Restoration, how much national power had the Japanese gambled?
He had gambled once during the 1894 - 1895 War. That time, he had defeated the Qing Dynasty and obtained the capital to rise.
He had gambled once with Mao Xiong in the Far East War and won that time, causing Mao Xiong to stop expanding in the Far East.
However, the Japanese's luck was not very good the third time. They ran into the wealthy US. It did not matter even if the US lost ten times, but the Japanese would lose his life if they lost once.
"Headmaster, this is just my guess. As for the last point, regardless of whether we win or lose, we just don't make peace with them. Once the war starts, our Chinese soldiers and civilians will definitely work together to fight against the Japanese pirates. As long as we don't make peace, the Japanese will be defeated sooner or later.”
" Well said," Zhang Zhizhong said loudly as he slammed the table." I'm afraid no one in the country has seen the war between China and Japan as thoroughly as you."”
Qin Yan sighed." Thank you for your praise, Dean. This is just my duty as a soldier."”
The two of them chatted for a while more before Qin Yan stood up and left.
