Chapter 653: mobilization of troops!

July 15th, the 19th year of the Republic of China.

On the second day of the phone call between Yan Xishan and Du Haisheng, it was announced that the Third Division of Chen Tiaoyuan's Third Route Army Stationed in Jining launched a shelling of the crusade before dawn the day before yesterday, and issued a statement in the newspaper that it would strongly condemn Zhang Zongchang and Chen Tiaoyuan's ceasefire agreement, declaring that it was against the people of Shandong. The irresponsible violation of life safety and the violation of promises, so it announced a full-scale attack on Shandong.

At 12 noon that day, when people were still eating, Yan Xishan and Shi You launched a full-scale attack from Jining and Liaocheng in Shandong respectively.

In addition, Sun Dianfang's part, which was out of the encirclement, was transferred from the Huaibei line of Haozhou to Zaozhuang. At the same time, a total of more than 50,000 people were attacked by Chen Diaoyuan's military headquarters in Yutai, Tengzhou, Zaozhuang and Weishan, and the connection between Chen Diaoyuan and the reinforcements in Jiangsu was cut off. In this way, the generals of the two sides in Shandong The force has reached an astonishing 500,000 people.

The most important reason why Yan Xishan let Sun Dianfang's troops enter Shandong from the front line of Haozhou and Huaibei is that tens of thousands of heavy troops have been supported from Jiangsu in Anhui. If he does not jump out of the encirclement, he is afraid that all the officers and soldiers of Sun Dianfang's troops will be annihilated. In that case, for his crusade army It will be a fatal blow.

Let Sun Dianfang's troops cut off Chen Diaoyuan's troops. It is also taking into account the changes in the current battlefield that they concentrate their superior forces to launch a comprehensive attack on Shandong and strive to eliminate Chen Diaoyuan's troops in the shortest time. As for the Shandong army under Zhang Zongchang's jurisdiction, to be honest, the combat effectiveness of these people Yan Xishan can't see at all. It doesn't pose any threat to him.

As long as Chen Chaoyuan's troops are annihilated by them, he can concentrate his superior forces, quickly go south and west, take out enough troops to attack Anhui and Jiangsu, and go straight to the nest of the Nanjing National Government. In this way, the balance of the war will be tilted towards him again and achieve a comprehensive victory in Shandong and Henan. It can basically be announced that this Central Plains Battle will end with his victory.

Since Du Haisheng asked him to fight, there are no worries. Just fight.

Even if Du Haisheng won't let him fight, Yan Xishan will never listen to him this time and will choose such an offensive route.

Time, he will have to end the Battle of the Central Plains in the shortest time.

Otherwise, the longer the delay, the greater the pressure he will be, whether internally or externally.

As for the arms and weapons, after the supplement of these two people and the secret support of Zhang Xueliang of the Northeast Army, they have received enough dressing. Although there is still a big gap compared with the first and second trump cards in Du Haisheng's hands, at least it is much better than that of Zhang Zongchang and Chen Tianyuan in Shandong.

It seems that because of this, he is so eager to attack Jining and Jinan, occupy Shandong and Henan, and finally achieve his political and military goals of unifying the country.

In the Du family's house, Du Haisheng looked at the newspaper in his hand and showed an intriguing smile.

Zhang Xun and Duan Tianhu around him are also a part of them. Seeing Du Haisheng's smile, they can't help shivering. Both of them know that the boss is afraid that he will have to count on others.

Sure enough, Du Haisheng was silent for a moment and said, "What do you think is Yan Xishan's strategic intention?"

Zhang Xun thought for a moment and said, "In fact, Officer Yan's strategic intention is not much different from what his subordinates said a few days ago. However, Sun Dianfang's troops did not defend the front line of Haozhou and Huaibei, but chose to attack Yutai with the first troops, and the latter troops attacked Zaozhuang, Tengzhou and Weishan at the same time. Chen Tianyuan and his department carried out piercing tactics. In this way, Chen Tianyuan was afraid that it would be difficult to fly even if he inserted his wings.

Du Haisheng nodded and said, "Then you two also talk about it. In a strategic sense, which one is more important, Shandong or Anhui?"

He did not comment on Zhang Xun's words, but asked the two again. The focus of his eyes was on Duan Tianhu.

Duan Tianhu was slightly stunned. He knew that if he didn't express his opinion again, he was afraid that the boss would be angry. He cleared his throat and said, "In my humble opinion, the strategic significance of Shandong is more important than that of Anhui."

"Uh?" Sure enough, Du Haisheng showed an approving look and said, "Let's talk about it in detail."

Duan Tianhu answered, looked at the military map on the table and said, "Big boss, look here, Shandong and Anhui, Anhui are inland provinces. Although there is a Longhai Railway passing through the line, compared with Shandong, there are still too few railways. Moreover, the railway from Shanghai to Beijing also passes through Shandong, that is, that is, He said that if he controls Shandong, he will control the great artery of the Beijing-Shanghai Railway and cut off the intention of Nanjing Lao Jiang's attempt to control Beijing and Tianjin. Even if he has many troops, he can't break through Shandong and go straight to Hebei and enter Beijing in a short time. In this way, it is equivalent to saying that he is stuck in Lao Jiang's throat. Looking at Anhui, although there is also south However, the Nanjing National Government has no other choice except Anhui. They can pass through Jiangsu, detour to Zhejiang, and then to Beijing. Although it is a little troublesome, it can at least ensure smooth flow. Besides, the cities, scale and population of these two provinces are comparable to those of the two provinces, but in terms of cities. In terms of scale, Anhui is backward in an all-round way, which can also form a sharp contrast from the taxation of the two provinces in recent years. The two are in a normal ratio. Moreover, Shandong men are tough, martial arts, and strong in popular customs. Most of them are good materials for soldiers. Once you get Shandong, you can completely expand your troops nearby. This is also the reason why Yan Xishan, Shi Yousan and Chiang Kai-shek all focus their main attention and energy on Shandong. Moreover, Shandong Jiaodong Peninsula also controls a long coastal control line, and many goods are transported through Qingdao, Yantai and other ports.

Du Haisheng said with great admiration, "Tianhu is right. Let's talk about it again, Yan Xishan and Jiang, who are you more optimistic about?"

What he said was quite clear.

Du Haisheng has always appreciated Du Tianhu's talent and vision. Like Zhang Xun, there is only one of the biggest difference between the two is that Zhang Xun knows everything, and even if Duan Tianhu knows, if others don't ask, he will definitely not easily say his thoughts, unless, like Du Haisheng directly forced him to submit like this.

And Duan Tianhu's analysis just now also got the meaning of Du Haisheng. In history, no matter which dynasty's emperor knows that if you want to win the world, you have to get the Central Plains. If you want to get the Central Plains, you must shock Shandong. The ferocity of Shandong's ring horse has been famous in all dynasties, and The land of Shandong is an eventful place. Many uprisings at the end of the dynasties began in Shandong, and then quickly permeated the whole land of China, such as the Daze Township Uprising, the 108 generals of Liangshan, the Green Forest Army Uprising, Wagangzhai, etc., all of which happened in Shandong.

In a dynasty, if you want to get peace, you must appease the emotions of the people of Shandong, or choose fierce means to suppress it.

Otherwise, no one can guarantee that those big men in Shandong will be unhappy one day and directly announce the uprising and start a fatal attack on your world.

Du Haisheng was very satisfied with the first question, and then asked the second question, that is, he wanted to see whether Duan Tianhu's vision and the problem in his heart were considered, whether there was that kind of long-term.

Hearing this, Duan Tianhu couldn't help frowning, thinking for a moment, and said, "Someone Jiang."

When Du Haisheng heard his answer, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled meaningfully and said, "Let's talk about it in detail. Why is it Jiang?"

"How can the dragon among people be comparable to those earth snakes such as Yan Xishan!"

Duan Tianhu said, with a touch of domineering flashing in his eyes, but he hurriedly disappeared in front of Du Haisheng, just in the blink of an eye.

Even so, Du Haisheng still saw all the small changes in his body, and then asked, "What do you mean, is Jiang a dragon? And Yan Xishan, Feng Yuxiang and others are earthworms in the soil. Even if he has turned over all the land, he can't shake the position of this giant dragon.

When Duan Tianhu heard Du Haisheng's parity, he nodded and said, "Exactly, in the eyes of his subordinates, although Jiang is not a good dragon, at least he is a dragon among people. He is a hero, treacherous or good, he can't deny that he plays with power and is an old hot and city government in the world. He is afraid to deal with him. You have to raise 100,000 hearts, otherwise, the designation will be sold by the other party.

When Du Haisheng saw the first important evidence in his hand through newspapers and radio stations, the whole Republic of China suddenly caused a sensation. For a while, countless storms were set off.
