Chapter 1131
Wufeng, who rushed back from Xikang Prefecture overnight, sat coldly in the middle seat. The atmosphere in the meeting hall became unprecedentedly depressing, which was almost suffocating. He had only been out for a month, and the situation in the north suddenly turned over. Li Wufeng tried his best to keep himself restrained and calm. He could accept the reality of failure, but he needed to examine what exactly caused this unfavorable situation. If it was his own reason, he felt that he should reflect on himself. If it was his subordinate department, he also needed to use thunder to rectify some inefficient departments.
All the people attending the meeting had already arrived, except for Moron, the Director of Legal Affairs, who arrived late until the last moment of time, which once again attracted everyone's attention. Everyone knew the topic of the meeting. In a word, someone needed to bear the responsibility for the sudden change in the north. What exactly caused the situation to change drastically? Perhaps someone should be responsible for it. No one was present at the Government and Foreign Affairs Summer. Obviously, this was a meeting involving military secrets. On the contrary, the Director of Legal Affairs, who had never participated in such meetings, was there really a person responsible for it. Should the person responsible be brought to the law and handed over to the Trial House for trial? Almost all participants had a bad premonition in their hearts.
"Everyone, today's meeting agenda is very simple. It is to review the recent military situation in our Xinjiang. I think it is necessary to review the work we have been doing this during this period, especially whether the military deployment and arrangements and the operation of the intelligence department provide sufficient information guarantees for our military department. I repeat that today is not a show of achievements, so do not use any objective reasons to explain the difficulties we are facing at this stage. What we need is to find out the crux of the problem, improve working methods, and no longer encounter such unacceptable low-level failures in our later military operations!"
Wufeng's speech was low, as if it indicates that today's meeting would definitely not be pleasant, and someone might be punished, but judging from the expressions of Ling Tianfang, Director of the Military Affairs Office and Mi Feng, Director of the Military Law Department, were not different from usual.
"Tianfang, you can analyze the causes of a series of failures that have occurred in the recent war situation in our northern state. Mi Feng, you focus on whether these reasons are related to the dereliction of duty in our departments. If it involves dereliction of duty, then I think Moron and your Legal Affairs Office should also intervene." Wufeng, who was expressionless, kicked off the reflection capital with a dry opening remark.
"Well, according to Your Highness's instructions, the General Staff Department of the Military Affairs Office focused on analyzing a series of failures in our northern war zone recently. Although wars have victory or defeat, and victory or defeat is common in military affairs, we should analyze what causes the war failure and what lessons should we learn from it. As for who should be held accountable, Lord Mifengmi will make a judgment later, I will not repeat it here."
"First of all, the Puer people launched a sudden attack on Yulin. We were a little negligent about this. The Puer people only suffered heavy damage in the Battle of Beiyuan in the first half of the year. A large number of prisoners were redeemed one after another in April and May. We despised the original qualities of the Puer soldiers. Although the intelligence department reminded us that the Spur army of the Military Affairs Office was carrying out large-scale military reforms, it did not attract us enough attention. We still considered that the Puer army should have a buffer recovery period after the defeat, but we did not expect that the Puer army would take advantage of this defeat as an opportunity to re-adjust and reorganize the national military force.
A large number of young and middle-aged officers who were not very valued were promoted and used. According to the information we have obtained now, the adjustment range of the officers of the Puer army is unprecedented, almost reaching more than 70%. In particular, the middle and low-level officers are almost all experienced veterans, and the prisoners we released back play an important role! On this point, I think it is a profound lesson. For those veterans with rich practical experience, we cannot continue our previous practices. As long as there is a possibility of hostility with Western Xinjiang, we should not let the other party redeem them casually, but should decide their survival path based on the actual situation."
Ling Tianfang's first words directly bombarded the Military Affairs Office's decision-making, which was beyond expectations. All the military officials thought that the military intelligence department should take responsibility for this issue first. The military intelligence department should have such a huge change in the military power. In theory, both the Military Intelligence Bureau and the General Intelligence Bureau should have special reports to remind the decision-making department of attention. However, neither of these two intelligence departments could make sufficient judgments on this point, which seemed to be the crux of the problem. However, Ling Tianfang's redemption of the prisoner was indeed a problem. There was great controversy on this issue at the beginning, but in the end, His Highness the King of Qin made the decision. The gun Ling Tianfang had hit the head of His Highness the King of Qin.
Even Wufeng himself did not expect that Ling Tian would burn himself in the first fire, but he was not a person who was afraid of medical treatment. When he made the release of Poole's captive, he was a little unconsidered and focused too much on the economic benefits brought, which led to today's disaster. He did not need to do so and did not want to shirk his responsibilities. When everyone's eyes gathered on his face, especially when Moron's slightly sarcastic and joking eyes were provoking on his face, Ling Tianfang was preparing for his second part of the speech as if nothing had happened, which made Wufeng a little embarrassed. He could only nod to express his full agreement with the other party's opinion. Although Wufeng believed that the division of responsibilities between the intelligence department and the staff department on the previous issue still needs to be discussed.
"The second question is how could the Pooles get involved with Stu Tai? The intelligence department failed to provide accurate information to the military because it involves professional issues. Please forgive me for not being able to judge whether the intelligence department can do this. Only ask the intelligence department to explain it itself."
It should be said that Ling Tian’s words are quite fair. After all, the intelligence department is not omnipotent. If all the enemy’s secrets can be detected by the intelligence department, then there is no need to fight the war. Who has the chance to win the war with an opponent predicted every step? I believe that no intelligence department can do this.
"However, my personal opinion is that the military reform of the Pouls should require a lot of funding support. In the past, the source of funding of the Pouls mainly relies on Kaman, but now the domestic political situation of Kaman is not stable, so it is impossible to provide them with such rich financial support. In my opinion, Situ Tai is possible, but his own military expenditure is also quite tight, which is not very realistic. Now, because of military operations, the military expenditure of the Duoduan people has increased sharply. It is obviously difficult for them, who are not well-off to lend a large amount of money to the Pouls.
Kuang Situ Tai seemed to have obtained a lot of loans from them, so the source of the Puer people's funds is probably a big question. If the intelligence department cannot have a suitable explanation for this, it would be a bit unreasonable. I hope to hear a reasonable explanation from the intelligence department." After a series of some things like developing for the intelligence department, Ling Tianfang finally pushed this seemingly inconspicuous problem to the intelligence department, making Gu Quan and Linghu Yi sitting aside look a little sad.
"It is not surprising that the 12th Imperial Army launched an offensive in Qinghe, but the 12th Legion used a new type of defensive weapon called the caltrop rope rail. This weapon has been seized. It has caused considerable damage to our cavalry in this war, especially its obstructive effect is quite obvious. It is said that large-scale equipment has been started in the northern army, mainly to restrain the cavalry power in our Western Xinjiang army. However, according to the time I learned about this weapon, our Western Xinjiang is one
Fang learned that the news of this weapon was too slow, and the intelligence department seemed to have not paid enough attention to it. The Military Affairs Office’s Staff Department also did not pay enough attention to it. In this regard, I think the Military Affairs Office and the Staff Department under the Military Affairs Office both bear the main responsibility, that is, I should bear the first responsibility." Just like talking about other people's affairs, Ling Tian still talked freely when talking about his own responsibilities, and there was no guilt or guilt on his dark face.
There was another silence in the conference hall. Everyone knew Mi Feng's temperament, and Molun's style was even more famous in the entire Western Xinjiang. For example, if you are Ling Tianfang, even His Highness the King of Qin himself, these two people would not give in at all. Could it be that Ling Tianfang really intends to anger the two of them? On the contrary, Mi Feng was solemn, while Molun still had the unruly and unruly expression, but there was a thoughtful look.
However, His Highness Qin's face seemed to have become much clearer now, and his eyes seemed to be unpredictable, as if he was thinking about something.
