Behind the closing door is the Kyoto that Guan Bai was dreaming of!

Although Guan Bai has passed away for more than 20 years, as a member of the Japanese invading Korea, he once thought that he would follow the army to capture the capital of the Ming Dynasty for Guan Bai. His personal emotions are undoubtedly complicated at such a close distance from the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

This is human nature, and it has nothing to do with his loyalty to the empire or to the lord.

Anguo Temple's regret is also from the heart. This regret is not because of Guan Bai's death, nor because Japan failed to win the Korean War, but because he could clearly lead his soldiers to seize the closure and then drive straight into Beijing, but he had to suppress the impulse because of the lord's toughness.

What a painful choice for a pure soldier.

Undoubtedly, the Fifth Division Chang Anguosi was a hardliner in the Second Army, and the so-called "hardliners" were the statement made by a group of combat staff at the base camp.

The hardliners hope to infiltrate the empire's Gyeonggi region through this Kanto exercise, and it is best to be able to take over Shanhaiguan with armed force and be actually responsible for the security of the empire's capital.

If there are "hard-line" people, there are naturally "weak factions".

The generals who were called weak by the staff members were not weak at heart or weak in combat. Instead, they hoped to ensure the fundamental interests of the emperor's personal army through the reasonable system and channels of the empire.

Representative figures of the "weak faction" include Hu Quan, the Chief of Staff of the Second Army, Xu Xianchun, the Commander of the Sixth Division, Shang Kejin, the Commander of the Brigade, and Li Ka-ki.

The representative figures of the "hardliners" are Li Yanzhao, the commander-in-chief of the Second Army, Ankuniji, the chief of the Fifth Division, Shimazu Heihachiro, Taro Higashimura, and Liu Xingzuo.

Among the generals at the brigade commander or above, Zhao Ming, Shen Shikui, Liu Zhaosun and others have not had a clear attitude. They have neither clearly expressed their support for the "hard-line" nor clearly expressed their support for the "weak faction". Therefore, these three people were despised by the staff members as "fence faction".

As early as a week before the Kanto National Development Exercise officially began, Li Yanzhao, the soul of the Second Army and the commander-in-chief of the army, summoned some young and strong staff from the headquarters and formulated an extremely bold action plan.

The goal of this action plan is to capture the capital.

According to the deductions of the staff, if the capital must be captured at critical moments, at least two divisions of troops need to be dispatched at one time.

One of the divisions directly entered Kyoto to monitor or disarm the Kyoto troops. The other divisions had to enter the inner Great Wall heavy trucks such as Zijing Pass and Juyong Pass, and closely monitored the Xuanda and other towns closest to the capital. At the same time, one-half of the military reserves currently accumulated, or even more.

One of the very important things in this plan is that once the capital is captured and the capital and the court cannot be effectively controlled, then war will inevitably be inevitable and war will inevitably expand rapidly. At the same time, the Jiangnan Special Zone will also face military pressure from the Nandu.

According to the existing forces of the emperor's personal army, if we want to completely control the Gyeonggi area and ensure the stability of the imperial court, the strength of the two divisions is far from enough, and at least five divisions are needed.

Then, it is necessary to draw two divisions from the First Army in Japan back to China. The special troops of North Korea also need to piece together one division. The joint fleet must block the Tianjin waters and ensure control of the Yangtze River and the southeast coast, and ensure that the imperial army in the south will head north after receiving the "pseudo decree". If necessary, the joint fleet's marine forces must also land to assist the army in controlling the canal.

At the same time, the base camp should conduct a general mobilization in the Kanto region, and the production and construction corps and a large number of Japanese shogunate prisoners should make full use of them, mobilizing the people of Kanto to join the army actively, forming a good logistics and military source transportation, and contributing to the bright future of the empire.

The combat time of more than half a year is only the first stage, and the military expenditure required in the first stage will reach more than 5 million taels.

This is obviously not something the emperor's personal army can bear.

Therefore, after Li Yanzhao handed this plan privately into the attendant room of the base camp, Eunuch Wei called him to denounce it when he was ready, and repeatedly stated that the imperial army was loyal to the court and the emperor, and was definitely not his own private army. Therefore, no matter when, the generals of the imperial army could not foolishly want to use the method of war to resolve the problem.

"The Kanto exercise is definitely not allowed to expand!"

The night before the exercise, Eunuch Wei's handwriting was sent to the officers above the brigade.

"What does it mean not to expand?"

"Isn't it considered an expansion if it doesn't seize Kyo?"

"As the emperor's personal army, it seems that Kyoto is the place we should be stationed!"

""

Officers above the brigade were talking about the manuscripts from the base camp. In the eyes of hardliners, not seizing Beijing would not be considered an expansion.

As Kumamoto said to Wang Huazhen, the deputy governor of Guangning in Balipu, "We only know that there is a military headquarters, but not a court." Therefore, in the eyes of the tough sect, the military headquarters is the only object of their obedience.

The leader of the military headquarters is the great lord!

So, when the heart of the empire is now filled with conspiracies against the lord, shouldn’t the imperial army take its course?

"If the Second Army cannot safeguard the safety of Lord Lord and cannot safeguard the reputation of the Imperial Army, I think all officers of the Second Army should have a cut-out!"

"If the situation is really extremely dangerous, if our leaders are in danger, if the Second Army takes necessary measures at this special time, the First Army will fully agree and fully support it!"

The commander of the Sanada Division and the commander of the Oda Brigade, who were carrying out a major raid on the Japanese rebellious forces in Japan, sent a secret letter to the commander-in-chief of the Second Army, Li Yanzhao.

This secret letter undoubtedly gave the hardliners of the Second Army a reassurance, which made the hardliners during the preparations for the exercise and began to actively prepare for possible events through various private means.

Some of the staff officers of the Fifth Division began to complete the operation of Shanhaiguan.

The weak groups naturally realized the intentions of the hardliners, so they reported to the base camp.

"If what I said cannot be understood and fully implemented by the generals of the Imperial Army, can I still become the supreme leader of the Imperial Army?"

"If even my subordinates don't listen to me, what's the point of my imperial army and the imperial court?"

"Then, if they must leave alone, just hang my head on Shanhaiguan!"

Eunuch Wei was heartbroken and irritated the above words at the base camp.
Chapter completed!
