"There's nothing to be afraid of. Just like us, he had two shoulders and a head. The reason why they were strong in battle was that their weapons and equipment were better, and their fighting will was stronger. In addition, his marksmanship was a little more accurate and he was not afraid of death in battle.
Now, our troops are not inferior to the Japanese in terms of weapons and equipment. They are even stronger. As for our fighting will and spear techniques, we might be at a disadvantage. However, our troops are equipped with a large number of machine guns and artillery. Our firepower is stronger. It won't be easy for the East Asians to defeat us.
I believe that we can defeat the Japanese!”
Yuan Kewen said to everyone.
The generals were still scared. However, he was no longer as afraid as before.
Just as Yuan Kewen had said, the East Asians were strong, but they weren't weak either!
Most importantly, their weapons and equipment were already stronger than the Japanese.
No matter how strong the East Asians were, how strong could they be? Both of them were carrying a head on their shoulders.
"In addition, perhaps everyone doesn't know. The current East Asian Empire was only strong on the outside but weak on the inside. Although they had defeated the Russians, they did not receive a huge amount of war reparations from the Russians like they had defeated the Qing Empire. As a result, they suffered heavy casualties in the war and spent a huge amount of military expenses, but there was no way to make up for it.
As a result, the finances of the East Asian people almost collapsed. All these years, he had been repaying his debts. The construction and development of their army naturally lagged behind.
The dozen or so infantry divisions of the Japanese were not full. Each infantry regiment only had about ten thousand people left.
Even if the East Asians do intervene, they won't be much weaker than us. Or rather, they could not take much advantage of it at all.”
Yuan Kewen was very confident in his upcoming clash with the East Asians.
This seemed to have influenced the other generals.
"According to the information we have, the Japanese only have an incomplete 5th Infantry Regiment in the northeast region. The entire Regiment only has about 10,000 people. In addition, there were six railway garrison brigades, totaling more than six thousand people.
As for the local tyrants in the northeast, they were mainly Zhang Shaozheng's 20th Infantry Division, Meng Enyuan's 23rd Infantry Division, Feng Delin's 28th Infantry Division, Zhang Zuolin's 27th Infantry Division, Lan Tianwei's 2nd Mixed Brigade, and the Black Province Mixed Brigade. In addition, these local tyrants also had some other non-staff troops. However, it was not too much. In terms of weapons and equipment, they are far inferior to us.
It won't be difficult for us to defeat them. The only thing he had to pay attention to were the East Asians.
However, the Japanese can't possibly gather all their forces to deal with us. Their finances did not allow them to do so. Once their finances collapsed, the Japanese would be finished.
"Therefore, the enemy we really have to face won't be too powerful. With our current strength, it's enough to deal with it!”
Yuan Kewen said to everyone.
Yuan Kewen now had the 101st, 102nd, 103rd, 104th, 105th, 101st Cavalry Brigade, and 101st Artillery Brigade under his command.
These troops were all full. In total, there were 165,000 people.
In addition, Yuan Kewen also had his own arsenal, which had begun to produce weapons and equipment. In terms of weapons and ammunition, they would not be controlled by others.
In addition, these troops had already formed combat strength.
Therefore, the time to send troops to the northeast was ripe.
"Everyone, if no one has any objections. Then, let's make the final preparations. All divisions, be prepared at all times. Once he received the order, he would set off immediately!”Yuan Kewen ordered.
"Yes, General!" All the generals answered.
On August 18th, 1812, Yuan Datou appointed Zhao Ti as the Governor of Henan Province.
Immediately, Yuan Kewen ordered the 101st, 102nd, 103rd, 104th, 105th, 101st Cavalry Brigade, and 101st Artillery Brigade to withdraw from Henan Province in batches and return to the northern part of Zhili Province by train.
On August 25th, Yuan Datou gave another order, appointing Yuan Kewen as the Fengtian Governor.
This appointment caused a huge uproar in the Beiyang faction and even the entire Yanhuang Kingdom.
Yuan Kewen was five days away from his 22nd birthday.
If he was appointed as the Fengtian Governor, wouldn't he become the youngest Governor in the entire Yan Huang Kingdom?
However, Yuan Kewen was going to Fengtian as the governor, so he was not a threat to the big shots of Beiyang. Everyone was even happy to see Yuan Kewen's upcoming conflict with the local tyrants in the northeast and the East Asians.
In any case, it had nothing to do with them.
However, the cannon gang in the south once again criticized this order. They angrily rebuked Big Head Yuan for being nepotism and trying to control the world.
However, Yuan Datou and the entire Beiyang Faction ignored them, making the accusations of the Cannon Faction meaningless.
The local tyrants in the northeast were extremely resistant to this order.
