Chapter 173 The stalemate
Chapter 173 The stalemate
By the summer of the 29th year of the Republic of China, the Japanese devils no longer launched large-scale attacks as before.
The entire Chinese battlefield entered a stalemate phase, of course this stalemate should be short-lived.
When the autumn harvest comes, there will be another fierce battle for the harvest.
The Deep Blue government's defensive forces on the front lines can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
The leadership of the Communist Party in Fushe felt this situation first.
The leadership of the Communist Party of China held a meeting and analyzed that the Japanese Empire wanted to use war to support war, and China's most prosperous areas such as the Central Plains, Jiangsu Province, and Zhejiang Province were almost occupied by the Japanese Empire.
It is also possible that the Japanese devils do not have enough troops, or that they are simply not strong enough to occupy the entire China.
From a strategic perspective, the Japanese devils hope that the Deep Blue government will surrender and become their puppet regime.
This is also the expectation of the Tokyo headquarters of the Japanese Empire, which wants to use high-pressure measures to force the Deep Blue government to compromise.
The Emperor of the Japanese Empire arranged for officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to contact senior officials of the Chinese Deep Blue Government.
They wanted to maximize the political interests of the Japanese Empire through negotiations.
Jiang Beihe, the president of the deep blue government, naturally does not dare to risk the wrath of the world. He who loses the support of the people will lose the world.
From another perspective, how could the great China become a puppet of the small and sparsely populated Japanese Empire?
Of course, a ceasefire between the two sides is the result that the Deep Blue Government President Jiang Beihe expects.
He needs time to unify the various forces in China.
In particular, he did not want to see the Chinese Communist Party grow bigger and stronger, and at the same time he hoped that the Japanese Empire would focus its main attention on the Communist Party.
The emergence of Wang Zhaoming in China has made the Chinese people extremely disappointed in the Deep Blue Party.
From the perspective of the Eastern Empire's Tokyo headquarters, the real threat to them in the future may be the Communist Party.
Deep down, the Japanese devils look down on the Deep Blue Party’s army and government officials. This is also the conclusion they have drawn from many confrontations with the Deep Blue Army.
Especially at the beginning of the war, the Japanese Empire's Special High Police instigated so many officers of the Deep Blue Government Army to defect in Nanjing.
More than half of the Imperial Army of Wang Jingwei's Light Green Party were surrendered from the Deep Blue government army.
This only shows that the Deep Blue government's army has lax discipline, and there are many officers at all levels who are profit-driven, have no faith, and lack spirit.
As the saying goes, if one soldier is incompetent, the whole army will be incompetent.
Looking at the members of the Huaxia Red Party organization, it seems that everyone's bones are made of steel.
The members of the Communist Party have faith and look thin physically, but their eyes are bright and lively.
In particular, some members of the Red Army who were engaged in intelligence work showed contempt for the Japanese Imperial Army after they were captured, which made the Japanese devils dare not underestimate the members of the Red Army.
At present, the Chinese Communist Party has become the target that the Japanese devils most need to eliminate.
Fortunately, the top leaders of the Chinese Communist Party were wise and capable, and the Communist Party developed rapidly, but they were low-key enough.
Keeping a low profile is the Communist Party’s biggest strategy at present.
No one knows the true strength of the Red Party, and naturally the top leaders of the Japanese Empire's Tokyo headquarters and the Deep Blue government are also unaware of it.
On another continent of the blue planet, the war is in full swing.
The German Empire swept across Europe like a tiger. Before the summer, it took them only two weeks to force the old European empire, France, to surrender.
The strength of the European powers surprised the Soviet leaders, and indeed the whole world.
The whole of Europe felt the powerful strength of the German Empire, and the world had a new understanding of the German Empire.
The head of the German Empire was ambitious.
If this trend continues, it won't be long before the German Empire attacks the Soviet Republic.
This put increased pressure on the leaders of the Soviet Republic.
In the 20th year of the Republic of China, the Japanese Empire forcibly occupied the three northeastern provinces of China.
Afterwards, the Japanese Empire continued to dispatch troops to the three northeastern provinces of China.
For the security of the Soviet Republic, the leadership had to station 50 troops in the Far East.
The main reason was that the Japanese devils forcibly occupied China's three northeastern provinces in September 1931.
Afterwards, the Japanese Empire's Tokyo headquarters continued to station troops in China's three northeastern provinces.
It took only a few years for the Japanese devils to station 60 troops in China's three northeastern provinces.
The first was to prevent the Soviet Republic’s army from seizing the three northeastern provinces and to hold on to the territory they had gained.
In addition, the Japanese devils also wanted to see if there was a chance to go north and fight the Soviet Republic again.
During the Tsarist Russia era, the Japanese devils defeated Tsarist Russia, and they hope that history will repeat itself.
Now, the leaders of the Soviet Republic were worried about the inhumane Japanese devils and ordered their Kwantung Army to suddenly move north to attack the Soviet Republic.
The Japanese devils are notorious for their insidiousness and viciousness.
As a leader, you have to be on guard against the Japanese devils.
If the Soviet Republic were attacked by both the German Empire and the Japanese Empire at the same time, it would be in great difficulty.
They must prepare for battle in advance and find the right countermeasures.
If the Japanese Empire transferred part of the Kwantung Army to fight in other places, the Soviet Republic would not need to station so many troops in the Far East.
Alternatively, they could withdraw some military forces from the Far East to defend against a sudden attack from the German Empire.
From the perspective of the Japanese Empire, attacking the Soviet Republic would naturally put the Japanese Empire under great pressure.
This is not in the interests of the current Japanese Empire's Tokyo headquarters, and the United States has stopped exporting oil to them.
Without oil, aircraft carriers and various aircraft will have to stop working.
At present, obtaining new oil resources is the top priority for the Japanese Empire.
In terms of strength, the Soviet Republic is definitely much stronger than Tsarist Russia.
The top leaders of the Japanese Empire would not attack the Soviet Republic if they were not absolutely sure of defeating their opponent.
War is fought to maximize benefits, whether political or economic.
The Japanese Empire is not a place with vast land and abundant resources, and many resources need to be imported from other countries.
If it wants to attack, the Japanese Empire must give priority to countries or places that supply resources.
Great leaders won't make such choices if the effort doesn't match the reward.
The leadership of the Soviet Republic very much hopes that the Chinese Communist Party will help them find out the future movements of the 60-strong Kwantung Army of the Japanese Empire.
Given the nature of the Japanese devils, it is impossible for them to keep 60 Kwantung Army in the three northeastern provinces for a long time.
The military strength of the Japanese Empire is not yet sufficient to this extent. They have been operating in the three northeastern provinces of China for almost ten years.
It cannot be said to be impregnable, but the Soviet Republic's 500,000 troops should not be able to take over the three northeastern provinces of China.
The Japanese Empire's Tokyo headquarters also thought so, and they wanted to quietly transfer some of their military forces.
They went south to attack the colonies of England and France, and France surrendered to the German Empire.
Li Zaishan, the leader of the Chinese Communist Party's intelligence agency, naturally received orders from his superiors.
After thinking for two days, he decided to hand over this task to the Hujiang underground Communist Party organization.
It's up to them to find a way to obtain this intelligence.
Hujiang is one of the most developed cities in Asia in terms of trade and is also a distribution center for all kinds of intelligence from various countries.
There are also special intelligence dealers on the Bund of Shanghai.
Li Zaishan arranged through telegram for the underground organization of the Shanghai Red Party to find a way to obtain this information.
After receiving the order from his superiors, Lao Liao, the head of the Hujiang Red Party organization, considered it over and over again and decided to ask Yingzi for help.
The movements of the 60-strong Kwantung Army of the Japanese Empire are no longer a single event on the Chinese battlefield.
If a portion of the 60-strong Kwantung Army of the Japanese Empire were to be sent to the Central Plains of China or the Yangtze River Basin, it would have a huge impact on the entire Chinese battlefield.
It is reasonable for the Chinese Communist Party to find out the arrangements made by the Japanese Empire for the 60 Kwantung Army.
Shadow Ye Minghao received an order from his superiors, asking him to find a way to investigate the movements of the Kwantung Army.
This was the first time that his superiors assigned him to collect intelligence, and he was nervous and excited.
Normally, when he came into contact with the Japanese devils, he would try his best to listen and find ways to integrate some fragmented information.
He would judge the next action plan of the Japanese devils in advance, and the risk of obtaining intelligence directly was extremely high.
Ye Minghao is naturally not a coward, but he will naturally find ways to avoid risks that can be avoided.
When working on the covert front, risky actions are taboos, not to mention that he has multiple identities.
