Chapter 237: The Wrath of the Japanese Army
At dusk, in Kikuko Yamaguchi's secret room, specific information about a large amount of US military equipment in Zhumadian, Henan Province was sent to Japan, and for a time, the entire Japanese government and the public were in an uproar, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs officially submitted a letter of protest to the US Embassy in Japan, sternly protesting against the US Government's unauthorized export of US military equipment to China, hurting the feelings of the Japanese people, and seriously hurting the interests of Japan, and demanding that the US Government immediately stop this act that undermines the friendship between the two peoples and withdraw this batch of US military equipment. I apologize to the peace-loving people of Japan. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
The next day, the US Government publicly issued a diplomatic statement, saying that this was a private act of a US arms dealer, and that the US Government had no knowledge of it, and said that it would immediately pass a relevant bill to stop this kind of behavior that undermines the friendship between the United States and Japan, and at the same time announced that since the US arms dealer and the Chinese had completed the transaction, the US Government had no right to deal with the whereabouts of this batch of military supplies.
The Japanese Government was greatly annoyed by the refusal of the US Government to apologize and to shift the blame completely, which greatly annoyed the Japanese Government, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the US Government launched a protracted dispute, and the Japanese Cabinet held an emergency meeting for several days, which was deeply outraged, and the hard-line military department even clamored for a declaration of war on the United States, but in view of the strength of the United States and Japan's dependence on the United States for war resources, in the end it was not resolved, and had no choice but to instruct General Taoichi Terauchi of the North China Front Army to draw up a perfect combat plan as soon as possible. Destroy this batch of U.S. military equipment that may pose a serious threat to the Japanese army in China.
After receiving the combat order from the General Staff Headquarters of the Japanese domestic base camp, the commander of the North China Front, Taoichi Terauchi, did not rush to give the order, but asked him to prepare a detailed information about Liu Changfeng.
Terauchi Taoyi belongs to the hard-line main battle faction, he repeatedly violated the order of the base camp to maintain the status quo, ordered the troops to attack frequently, conquer the city, and continue to expand the war, it can be said that the battle of Xuzhou that opened up the Tianjin-Pudong railway was caused by him, he advocated a quick victory, lightning-like destruction of the Chinese army's will to resist, at the beginning of the year, his troops did achieve impressive results, due to the Shandong chairman Han Fuqu fled without a fight, his troops were like no one, almost traveling to the south of Shandong, but soon, At the same time, due to the awakening of the resistance consciousness of the Chinese youth and the vast number of officers and soldiers, in March and April, the famous battles for the defense of Tengxian and Linyi broke out successively, which dealt a great blow to the arrogance of the Japanese army, and the Chinese soldiers used their blood and young lives to defend their dignity and made the Japanese army pay a heavy price.
And now, in the eyes of the Japanese army, the battle of Linyi is still in full swing, the battle situation is extremely tragic, the tenacity and bravery of the Chinese soldiers are completely beyond the expectations of Taoichi Terauchi, in the case of the huge disparity in weapons and equipment, the Chinese soldiers are almost fighting with his iron and steel corps, which also makes him have to re-understand the Chinese army.
As for the operation to destroy Liu Changfeng's US military equipment, Terauchi Taoyi decided to plan and then act, and completed his work in one battle. The Chinese possess US military equipment, which makes him deeply worried, these Chinese soldiers are so difficult to deal with with with rudimentary weapons in their hands, what if the weapons in their hands are more advanced than their own? He didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Finally, in the evening, the staff officer put Liu Changfeng's information on his desk, and the temple Tao Yi owed slightly, took the folder in his hand, and slowly opened it, only to see that it was written; Liu Changfeng, male, 25 years old, photo, none, place of origin unknown, family background unknown, occupation, unknown, jealous and hateful, hateful to the Imperial Japanese Army, with a very high military literacy, it is said that he once studied in the United States, proficient in English and Japanese, and first appeared in the public eye, in January, in Wuyi Town, Chuxian County, Anhui Province, when he slaughtered an unsuspecting brigade of the Imperial Japanese Armyγγγγγγ''
Terauchi's frowning brows became deeper and deeper, and after a while, he closed the folder and handed it to the chief of staff of the North China Front, Okabe Naosaburo, and said dissatisfiedly; ''Nani? The intelligence work of the special high class is becoming more and more unpleasant, it is actually so perfunctory, and nothing is clear, could it be that this Liu Changfeng jumped out of the stone?''
In fact, Tao Yi in the temple really misunderstood the special high class, Liu Changfeng can be said to have jumped out of the stone, and even the people around him don't know about his situation, let alone the agent of the special high class?
Okabe Naosaburo quietly finished reading Liu Changfeng's information and said; For example, this Liu Changfeng has outstanding language ability, has a very high military quality, he is good at strategy, extremely scheming, good at creating fighter planes, grasping fighter planes, and in the repeated confrontations with our Imperial Japanese Army, he has always been able to make use of his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, so that the Imperial Japanese Army can not give full play to his own strengths, and all kinds of signs show that he is keen on special operations. ββ
Temple Tao's eyes lit up, nodded slightly, and said; ''Yo Sai, Okabe-kun really has a torch-like eye and quick thinking, so in your opinion, how can we complete the task of destroying the equipment of the US military?''
Naosaburo Okabe pondered for a while and said; There are two ways, the first is that we send bombers to bomb, and the second is to send elite troops to carry out sneak attacks. At present, due to the long distance between Zhumadian and our nearest airport, our planes have a limited range and cannot stay for a long time, and once we cannot find Liu Changfeng's artillery group and the specific location of the tank group in a short period of time, we will return in vain. Therefore, I personally prefer that the special operations forces find the specific location of the enemy's artillery and tank groups, mark the coordinates, and then the bombers carry out the task of the final blow. ββ
Terauchi Tao nodded again and said; Actually, there is a better way, which is to wait for Liu Changfeng to fight with us, and then destroy them, but I don't think the base camp will agree to us doing this, they can't wait to destroy this batch of American equipment, as a demonstration to the Americans. ββ
"No, Your Excellency, even if other factors are excluded, I am in favor of destroying this batch of American equipment now. ''Naosaburo Okabe explained; Now that Liu Changfeng has just received this batch of US military equipment, he will inevitably have to go through a period of training before he can form combat effectiveness, and he will be able to defeat our Imperial Japanese Army many times without any heavy weapons, and he must have some kind of superiority, and we must not raise a tiger to make a problem, and we must sit back and watch him train into an army, and we must get rid of him while he is still in his fledgling. ββ
Temple Tao nodded again and again, and said; ''Yo Sai, then, according to Okabe-kun, strangle him in the cradle as soon as possible, Okabe-kun, who do you think can be up to the task?''
''Your Excellency, Commander, have you forgotten Sakai Yukio?'' This person once studied in Germany, and he is well versed in the essence of special operations, and he thinks that he is the best candidate. ''Okabe Naosaburo said.
Temple Tao frowned and said; ''This person is a bit really talented, but his only flaw is arrogance, his eyes are above the top, I don't know if he is Liu Changfeng's opponent. ββ
''Your Excellency, Commander, he has his proud capital, we might as well give it a try, there is really no better candidate for the lowly position.'' Okabe Naosaburo said bluntly.
''Well, then give him a chance, you call him.'' Terauchi pondered for a while and said slowly. (To be continued.) )
