Now Yasuken Nakajima is actually accusing the military department and the advisory headquarters for their work in the past few years.

The officers of the former Advisory Headquarters and the Ministry of War were somewhat resentful of this accusation, but Umezu Yoshijiro and Nishio Shouzo did not stop them, and both of them were dissatisfied with the War Ministry and the Advisory Headquarters, especially Nishio Shouzo, who, in his opinion, was the stupidity of the War Department's war policy as the main reason for the erosion of the Chinese battlefield, and he and Okamura Ninji were the victims of stupidity

"The defeat in the Battle of North China had a great impact on the confidence of the people, and if Manchuria was left behind, how would we explain it to the people?" Ryuzo Sejima asked, standing up. The whole book

The Battle of North China failed, Okamura Ninji led his troops to surrender, Oshirodo Sanji was transferred back to China, and then he was forcibly discharged and transferred to the reserve, and the officers who returned from North China were all sent to the Southern Army except for Nakajima Yasuyasu who was resolutely left behind by Nishio Shouzo, and the rest were sent to the Southern Army, forbidden to stay in the country, and the news of the defeat in North China was strictly blocked.

But no matter how it is blocked, the news always has to be announced. The land does not fit the sea, the Battle of Midway,

In the propaganda, the military department turned defeat into victory, claiming that it had sunk several US aircraft carriers and achieved unprecedented victories, and the people in China also organized a lantern parade.

There is no battle line in the sea, there is a front on land. The Battle of North China was a great victory, but Beiping and Tianjin were lost, and the war was going on at Shanhaiguan, even if it was a three-year-old child, it could not be deceived.

The Army's propaganda tone was shifting the blame to Okamura Ninji, and in a series of articles written by the propaganda department of the Advisory Headquarters, the responsibility for the defeat in North China was attributed to Okamura Ninji's retreat and rebellion, which ultimately led to the defeat of the North China Battle.

"The Battle of North China is 450,000 against 2 million, we lose 400,000, if we lose another 300,000 in Manchuria, do we still have the military strength to hold Korea?" Yasuken Nakajima asked coldly.

"The failure is too serious, Nakajima-kun" said the director of education, General Yamada Otozo, one of the three giants of the army, who has held the position of highly respected director of education since 1940, and has served in the four cabinets of Konoe Tojo Isosuzuki, which can be described as the elder of the four dynasties.

"It is true that the enemy is strong and we are weak, but I think it is important to build the confidence of the soldiers at the front now," Yamada Otozo said in an unmistakable tone: "If you always retreat, your morale will decline rapidly, and if you do, you will not be able to hold on to Manchuria or Korea." ”

This time, Nakajima Yasuken did not fight back, Yamada was not wrong, North China was defeated, the essence of the Kwantung Army was exhausted, and the morale of the Shanhaiguan front line was reduced, and now the biggest headache for Okabe Naosaburo is how to restore morale.

"Yamada-kun is good, Shanhaiguan is still guarded, but it is impossible to blindly retreat" Umezu Mijiro spoke at this time: "Of course, Nakajima-kun's strategy is not a problem, once the Shina Army opens up the strategic space, it will be very difficult for the Kwantung Army to hold Manchuria, and the best way is to hold on to Korea." ”

At this point, he knocked on the document in front of him: "This arrangement must be reformulated, and the strategy of the Chinese army crossing the Great Khing'an Mountains must be taken into account, and there must be a plan. ”

No plans were drawn up, but Nishio was satisfied, believing that the meeting had begun to shake the bureaucrats in Tokyo, or at least not to come up with any more stupid plans, and that his job was to get the outline of the general decisive battle approved by the Cabinet meeting.

Nishio Toshizo also planned to make drastic changes to the Ministry of the Army, but Takeo Imai did not agree, believing that such a drastic change at this time would bring chaos to the Ministry of the Army, which would be very unfortunate for the operation. Mobile phone sites

"Your Excellency, I know your feelings, but this matter should not be too anxious, I suggest that some personnel adjustments be made to the Ministry of the Army, and as for the rest, let's make plans when the battle situation on the front line is stable."

After thinking about it, Nishio Shouzo accepted Takeo Imai's suggestion not to make changes to the Ministry of War for the time being, and only made adjustments to a few of the positions, such as the Ordnance Bureau and the Ordnance Headquarters, one of these two parts is responsible for weapons and equipment policy, and the other is responsible for development and production, but the war has been fought until now, and the empire is seriously lacking in anti-tank weapons, and they bear the main responsibility.

The recovered Beiping is full of vitality, the restaurant and tea shop are almost overcrowded, and the people of Beiping are talking about the new things in the past few days with a consistent ruffian. At the ceremony of entering the city, Xiong Bin, the new mayor of Beiping, announced his inauguration as mayor of Beiping, and Tang Enbo announced his appointment as the commander of the Beiping garrison, and then announced the implementation of military extraction in Beiping.

The citizens of Peiping really felt that the Kuomintang who had newly entered the city was at odds with the pre-war period, and the police concentrated on rectification and study, and some of the most heinous policemen were detained and put in charge of the nuclear office, and the army patrolled the streets of Beiping, and the public order in the market was much better, but in only three days, the army launched a wave of public security rectification, and many gangsters and hooligans in the flyover were arrested, and then the government sent people to set up a street office, re-registered the household registration, and the banknotes issued by the Japanese were banned from circulation, and the government posted a notice requiring that all counterfeit money be replaced with legal tender within three months.

After Xiong Bin and Tang Enbo's glorious inauguration, Kang Ze was appointed as the director of the Party Department of Beiping City in a low-key manner, and Kang Ze became the director of the Party Department of Beiping Zhuang Jihua was a little surprised.

From the outside, Kang Ze is a calm and steady person, but in fact, this person is very progressive, the policies formulated are very progressive, and the means of implementing policies are very tough, which makes people frightened. Using such a person to be the director of the Party Department in Beiping, Zhuang Jihua thought for a long time, and could only accept Feng Yi's conclusion, Kang Ze has two interests, one is good at propaganda, and the other is that he has a huge disagreement with Zhuang Jihua; Chiang Kai-shek used him this time, and I am afraid that the latter is the majority.

But no matter who Chiang Kai-shek used, Zhuang Jihua didn't care, in his plan Beiping is the kind of chicken rib type of area, the products are not rich, the industry is not rich, in addition to enjoying the reputation of the important town in North China, the ancient capital of the three dynasties, the food is tasteless, it is a pity to abandon it.

Zhuang Jihua put all his energy on logistics and the reorganization of the Northeast Army, after the recovery of Beiping and Tianjin, the North China Theater increased the population by more than one million, and some grain was also seized from Beiping Tianjin, mainly the Japanese army in Beiping, but these grains were only enough to maintain the citizens of Pingjin for half a month.

In order to solve the grain problem, Zhuang Jihua, on the one hand, sent an urgent telegram to Chongqing, demanding that the rear side send at least 20 million kilograms of grain to North China within at least half a month, and on the other hand, he used newspapers and radio stations to call on the citizens of Pingjin to save grain as much as possible.

The situation in Beiping is good, the city is basically cared for, the damage is very little, the refugees who returned to the city still have a place to live, Tianjin is completely out of harmony, the whole city is almost destroyed, about 60,000 Japanese troops have been wiped out, the casualties of Tianjin citizens have reached more than 30,000 people, the whole Tianjin has been seriously damaged, hundreds of thousands of Tianjin citizens have nowhere to live.

Tang Shizun and Zhang Tingge were simply sad to death, and they wanted to build houses for millions of Tianjin citizens, but they didn't have much money in their hands, Zhang Qiange only had three million legal dollars in his hands, and Tang Shizun had no money in his hands. The two of them complained to Zhuang Jihua vigorously.

Zhuang Jihua took a large number of reporters to Tianjin after solving Okamura Ningji, although he was prepared in his heart, but after visiting the scene, Zhuang Jihua still felt frightened, the city was full of traces of war, shell craters, bullet holes, gunsmoke blackened bloodstains, can be seen in the past.

In the Japanese Concession, where the fighting was fiercest, there was hardly a single intact building, and the barricades had been removed, but the streets were full of craters, and the destroyed armored vehicles and tanks became toys for children's play.

"According to statistics, there are currently 560,000 refugees in Tianjin, 320,000 people who have returned to the city, and only 200,000 citizens can be accommodated in Hengyu, which is currently intact, and it will take at least ten years to build enough houses for Tianjin citizens to live in." Zhang Tingge introduced to Zhuang Jihua as he walked, and a large number of reporters gathered around Zhuang Jihua, who walked to the streets of Tianjin, and unconsciously gathered a large number of concerned citizens on the side of the road.

Zhang Tingge looked at the buildings on the other side, which were full of holes, with rubble piled up underneath the buildings, a war defense gun lying crooked in the trench, and a burned loading truck in the distance, and a few children playing beside it.

"At present, there are about 30 factories in Tianjin, and about 80 factories will be opened within half a month, and after all these factories are opened, they can accommodate 70,000 or 80,000 workers." Zhang Tingge's tone was full of bitterness, seventy or eighty thousand is too little compared to one million, there is no income without a job, and there is ............ without income.

Zhuang Jihua's face was pale, and he bowed slightly: "It seems that we are going to tide over the difficulties again, Mayor Zhang, how is the investment promotion going?" Hearing the investment promotion, Zhang Tingge's spirit lifted slightly: "The situation of investment promotion is okay, Mr. Fan Xudong called, he has contacted a group of southwest industrialists to invest in Tianjin, in addition, Commander Tang has also contacted the southwest industry, they are already on the way." Zhuang Jihua turned his head to look at Tang Shizun and smiled: "Commander Tang, if you can move Brother Jin Kang and Brother Jianlong, you can make great contributions." ”

Tang Shizun's chubby face smiled, he shook his head: "Hehe, commander, don't sour me, I have that ability, Brother Jin Kang and Brother Jianlong know that it is your meaning, and contacted the southwest industry overnight, and Mr. Mei contacted the Shanghai industry again, and received a telegram from Brother Jin Kang yesterday, they are already on the way, but, to tell the truth, commander, they are coming, Lou doesn't know how to let them live there, and there will be no intact hotel in Tianjin." Zhuang Jihua was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly, the original Tianjin good hotels and inns are in the concession area, in the siege war, the concession area is the most fierce, the entire area is almost all destroyed, can not find a complete Hengyu, Tianjin is now good Hengyu in the Hua District, it is also the battle in the concession area is too fierce, the hundreds of factories originally concentrated in the concession area have been almost all destroyed.

"Think of a way, you can't be outside the city, don't pay too much attention to this matter, everyone knows that Tianjin has just been recovered, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be rebuilt, and the difficulties are temporary." Zhuang Jihua: "Mayor Zhang, I'm thinking, Tianjin is a big salt city, and it has to publish salt quotations every year, and the income is quite large. ”

Tang Shizun grinned: "I can't do this, the commander will definitely do it." Zhang Tingge frowned slightly, and then let out a smile: "Well, this is a good way, with money, there is a way." After the recovery of Tianjin, the national government allocated five million funds for the reconstruction of Tianjin, and Zhuang Jihua gave one million, and there was no other fund.

"These money can not be used indiscriminately, mainly used in municipal construction and housing construction, now nothing, in another seven or eight months, as soon as the winter comes, the public will not be able to live in the rubble again, well, we must seize the time to build low-rent housing, just like we are in Chongqing, low-rent housing is not too big, about forty square meters, one bedroom and one hall. In addition, citizens are allowed to build their own houses, even if it is to build a shack to shelter from the wind and rain, but before the winter comes, at least 400,000 citizens must live in it, and they must calculate it carefully, so that at least more Hengyu will be repaired. Zhang Tingge and Tang Shizun's faces began to turn pale again, the low-rent houses where 400,000 citizens live, now the money has not yet appeared, and the time is only seven or eight months, this task is probably no worse than the annihilation of the Kwantung Army.

Zhuang Jihua saw the worry in their hearts, he smiled and turned to face the reporters and said loudly: "Tianjin was destroyed in the war, this is not our responsibility, the construction of a new Tianjin, is the important task entrusted to us by the calendar, this is also an opportunity, there is no more opportunity, this is like painting, it is difficult to modify a painted painting?" Or is it easier to draw on a blank sheet of paper? I think it's the latter, Tianjin is now a blank piece of paper, we are painting on this blank paper, what kind of painting we draw, will affect the future growth of Tianjin, to the cranes, gradually old, or even no more, we and your descendants can point to Tianjin, this is our construction! Zhang Tingge and Tang Shizun's faces gradually appeared red, Zhuang Jihua is right, now Tianjin is in the hands of the two of them, Tianjin will grow according to their planning and design, what can be more exciting than this?

Zhuang Jihua turned to face Tang Shizun and Zhang Tingge: "I have already called Jingguo and asked him to organize a group of experts to come to Tianjin to carry out comprehensive planning and design for Tianjin, and Professor Liang Sicheng is an architectural expert, he will rush to Tianjin the day after tomorrow, so we can listen to his opinions." "Please rest assured, Commander, we will do our best to ensure that 400,000 Tianjin citizens can live in low-rent housing within eight months." Zhang Tingge replied loudly.

"Don't be too anxious about the funds, Mr. Mei Yuntian and Mr. Ma Yinchu will come over soon, how to publish the debt papers, and discuss with them. ，… After finishing, Zhuang Jihua said with a serious face: "I repeat it again, we are surviving the difficulties, this money is not easy to come by, and it can also be the life-saving money of Tianjin citizens, whoever wants to put his hand on this, don't blame me for being ruthless." Tang Shizun and Zhang Tingge solemnly promised: "Please rest assured, the commander can rest assured that every penny of the city will be used to help refugees." ”

"That's good." Zhuang Jihua nodded with satisfaction.

At this time, a reporter suddenly squeezed over from behind and asked loudly: "Commander Zhuang, after the liberation of Wuhan and Shandong, Chairman Jiang came to inspect them, why has the chairman not arrived after the restoration of Pingjin?"

What is the reason for this? ”@
