Chapter 401: Shocked and Angry Devil Leaders
Chief of Staff Fujiwara Takeshi once served in the intelligence department of the Japanese army stationed in the northeast, and he had a close relationship with many high-ranking members of the special high division, so he comforted: "Your Excellency, commander, although it is a dereliction of duty on the failure to collect information on the fighters of the Chinese army, now is not the time to pursue responsibility.
It's about finding a way to get rid of this damn tiger group!
Because the Tiger Regiment has brought immeasurable losses to the Imperial Army again and again, it has long become the top confidant of our Imperial Japanese Army.
More than once, including the Cabinet and even His Majesty the Emperor, orders were issued to eliminate him at all costs.
So, you see, did you agree to General Inaba Shiro's request and call the front command again and send aviation to provide them with tactical guidance? ”
Okamura Ninji pondered for a moment, nodded with an extremely cold face, and said, "Just do as you say." In addition, send another telegram to Inaba Shiro, telling him that no matter what, at all costs, the Tiger Ben Regiment of the Shina Army will be wiped out in the Black Wind Ridge! ”
"Hayi!"
Fujiwara Takeshi paused, and immediately gave the communications staff officer next to him a look.
The communications staff officer understood this, and immediately took a step forward and walked quickly towards the position of the station.
……
The picture pulls to Jinling.
Headquarters of the Central China Front of the Japanese Army.
Shunroku Hata and Chief of Staff Masao Kawabe are standing in front of a battle map to discuss the next battle.
Although, because of the sudden appearance of the "Chinese fighter group", the 1st Flying Regiment of the Japanese Air Force was taken by surprise, and even caused huge losses to the 13th Division in Luoxialing.
But whether it is Shozo Kawabe or Shunroku Hatata, they all agree that the next victory will definitely belong to them.
Because, first of all, Shiro Inaba with an army of 35,000 is already in an absolute advantage in terms of strength.
Secondly, they occupied all the dangerous positions in the Black Wind Ridge in advance and occupied the favorable terrain.
In addition, these two old devils' cognition of the Chinese Air Force is still in the early stage of the Battle of Songhu, and the defeat of the 1st Flying Regiment this time is, in their opinion, just a reason for being caught off guard, and not because the combat effectiveness is not as good as the Chinese Air Force.
Therefore, these two old devils still have great confidence in the battle of Black Wind Ridge.
It is believed that in this battle, the Japanese army will definitely be able to defeat the Tiger Ben Regiment with a devastating momentum.
At this moment, a communications staff officer suddenly hurriedly barged in from the outside and reported loudly to the two: "Report! The 11th Army General Okamura Ninji urgently called! ”
When the two of them heard this, their faces were happy, and they subconsciously thought that the battle on the Black Wind Ridge side had already come to an end, because calculating the time, the battle had almost begun for almost 20 minutes.
Kawabe Shozo took the lead and said, "What's the matter?" Could it be that the 6th Division of the Imperial Army has successfully wiped out the Tiger Ben Regiment of the Chinese Army in Heifeng Ridge? ”
The communications staff officer lowered his head and said weakly: "No, it's not. It is General Okamura Ninji, and I implore His Excellency the Commander to send aviation once again to provide tactical guidance to General Inaba Shiro's 6th Division! ”
"Nani?"
The smiles on the faces of the two old devils, Shozo Kawabe and Shunroku Hatata, froze for a moment, and then they both showed shocked expressions, not even believing their ears.
After a while, Shunroku Hata came back to his senses and asked with an extremely gloomy face, "Didn't the 1st Aviation Flying Regiment already provide tactical guidance to the 6th Division of the Imperial Army?" ”
"Hayi!"
The Devil's Communications Staff Officer paused again and said: "The 1st Flying Regiment of the Imperial Army Aviation was defeated in the air battle with the China Air Force, and it has now returned!"
Therefore, the situation in the 6th Division is extremely unoptimistic! ”
After hearing this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch, and he couldn't help but be furious: "Yaga! How could such an unbelievable turn of events happen? The 1st Flying Regiment of the Imperial Army Aviation was defeated by the China Air Force one after another, and it was a great shame.
This Central Plains Shengxiao really lost the face of my Japanese Imperial Army!
I don't think he, the commander of the 1st Flying Regiment, should be the commander at all! ”
Chief of Staff Kawabe Masasan hurriedly reassured: "Your Excellency, Commander, it is not a matter of accountability now.
The most important thing at the moment is how to eliminate this damn Tiger Ben Regiment of the Chinese Army!
On the Heifeng Ridge side, without the containment of the Imperial Army Aviation, the China Army Aviation could unscrupulously launch an attack on the 6th Division of the Imperial Army.
Therefore, it is estimated that the current situation of the 6th Division of the Imperial Army must be extremely unoptimistic! ”
Hata Junroku nodded deeply, suppressed the anger in his heart, turned to look at the communication staff officer in front of him, and said in an extremely gloomy tone: "Immediately send a telegram to the 1st Aviation Flying Regiment, and order Nakahara Shengxiao to immediately send the aviation to take off from Hefei again and go to Heifeng Gorge to provide tactical guidance to the 6th Division of the Imperial Army!" ”
"Hayi!"
The communications staff officer paused heavily, and was about to turn and leave.
"Wait a minute!" Shunroku Hata stopped him and continued: "Tell Nakahara Moritaka that this time he can only win and not be defeated, otherwise, let him cut his stomach and apologize to the sacrificed imperial warriors and His Majesty the Emperor!" ”
This time, Shunroku Hata was really angry, so he directly gave a death order to a major general officer.
You know, it was a major general of the Japanese Army, not an ordinary adjutant.
In Japan, the class system is also very serious, if you are not from an aristocratic background, it is almost impossible to be promoted to a major general, even if you are from an aristocratic background, if you want to be promoted to a major general, you need to make great military achievements, and at the same time, there is also a need for vacancies.
Many people have not even been able to cross the hurdle of Osa to Major General in their lifetime.
It can be seen from this that the scarcity of major generals in the Japanese army, as well as their importance.
Therefore, if it weren't for the real anger, how could Shunroku Hata directly give such a death order to a major general with no way out.
(To explain here, during World War II, the Japanese army only had two arms: the army and the navy; There are two types of air forces, land-based aviation and sea-based aviation, which are under the jurisdiction of the Japanese army and navy.
Therefore, although Nakahara Shengxiao is an aviation unit, he belongs to the army major general. )
"Hayi!"
The devil communication soldier suddenly froze again, and immediately turned and left.
Inaba Shiro turned around, and his gaze was fixed again on the junction of Yingshan and Yuexi, the location of the Black Wind Ridge.
But at this time, the old devil's face has completely lost the calmness it had at the beginning.
His face was gloomy, and he could almost drip water.
Chief of Staff Kawabe Shozo once again comforted: "Your Excellency Commander, please calm your anger, it is not difficult to see from the past performance of the Tiger Regimental of the China Army that it is not an easy thing to eliminate it.
And as long as the 6th Division of the Imperial Army can complete its efforts in one battle and completely solve the great problem of the Tiger Ben Regiment of the Chinese Army, the previous losses are not unacceptable! ”
Toshiroku Hata said expressionlessly, "It's better to be like this!" ”
