Chapter 710: Bloody Fertile Ji Lubian (2)

Emperor Hirohito's shrill voice echoes dàng in Matsunokaku, and Prince Zaihito's voice in Kanin Palace also echoes dàng in Matsunokaku, one sharp, the other low with a slight trembling, like a duet from the devil.

After talking about the expansion of the army, Emperor Hirohito inquired about the development of cutting-edge fighters.

Strictly speaking, this matter is under the control of the Ministry of the Army, but Prince Zaihito of the Imperial Palace of Kanin is the chief of the general staff of the Japanese army, and he is the largest in the Japanese army except for the emperor, so he must personally decide such a major matter. Prince Zaihito of the Imperial Palace reported that the cutting-edge fighter was designed by Jiro Horikoshi, a famous designer of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. This is because when the representatives of the aviation force discussed the design requirements, one opinion was that the turning combat should be given priority, and the other opinion was that the problem of speed and range should be solved, which caused confusion for the designers and affected the schedule. However, the material of the cutting-edge fighter has been solved, and the body material is the latest 50 wind alloy developed by Sumitomo Metal Gongyin. This metal is harder than steel and much lighter than steel. According to the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries report, the design has been completed, the prototype is being trial-produced, and it is expected to be able to conduct a test flight in April.

After hearing this, Emperor Hirohito was silent, paused for a while, and then asked: "It is said that there is a kind of martial weapon that specializes in dealing with the chariots of the imperial army, and after hitting the chariots, the chariots can be beaten into a team of scrap iron. What do the General Staff and the Ministry of War think about this? Were there any captures on the battlefield? Can it be imitated? Is there a countermeasure? ”

Only then did Prince Zaihito of the Kanin Palace know how sensitive the emperor's ears and eyes were, and anything on the battlefield could not escape the emperor's eyes. Of course, Prince Yin of the Imperial Palace was not so stupid as to think that His Majesty the Emperor was a descendant of God and had some divine eyes, and he knew that His Majesty the Emperor should have carefully read the reports of the various front-line units and special service units and military police to understand the truth.

Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Gong hurriedly reported that there were indeed three kinds of weapons developed by the Eighth Route Army to deal with chariots, one was a cannon that could carry a shè on the shoulder, one was an anti-Tanyinke mine, and the other was a bombing bag that could be detonated with a wire. These three kinds of martial arts weapons are very effective against the army's existing combat vehicles. The General Staff has received a report from the front-line brigade, but the reported brigade is basically broken, has not been captured, and cannot be imitated. According to the analysis of the General Staff, none of these Wuyin, Jiang Yinjie, and Yinshi's Zhongyinyang Army should have learned from the Soviets. The only countermeasure was to increase the thickness of the armor protection of the tank, but unfortunately the Japanese Imperial Kingdom lacked steel and could not produce the heavy tanks of the Americans and Germans.

Emperor Hirohito scolded hatefully: "It's the Soviets again, Baga!" ”

After scolding, Emperor Hirohito remembered that he was a god and not a human being, and he couldn't be scolded, so he turned to ask: "Is there any news about Princess Junnomiya Hideko there?" ”

Prince Zairen of the Idle Palace reported that it was not yet, but according to Liu Yimin's year-end conversation intercepted, Princess Hideko Jungong should have successfully broken through. She is so high, it is impossible for the Eighth Route Army to catch her. Her mission is to assassinate Liu Yimin, and it is normal not to cooperate with the garrison and act covertly.

After Emperor Hirohito heard this, the god Jīng was a little irritable, stood up and walked around a few times, looked outside the Matsuno Pavilion, and said for a long time: "Tell Iida Sadagu that the 12th Army can't even protect the princess, it's very embarrassing!" It is necessary to send more well-trained agents, think of mixing the army, and find out if there is any news of the princess. It is necessary to form more Yinweaving assassination teams to carry out assassination operations against the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and the commanders of each division, and it is best to catch the important people in Yin, in case the princess unfortunately falls into the ground, so as to exchange with them. ”

Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace was a little confused at this time, and he said without pain: "Your Majesty, look at it, the princess has high martial arts, and she will be fine." Besides, after all, she is just a relatively distant princess of the imperial family, even if she is broken, she will die a well-deserved death, and it is the obligation of every Japanese citizen to die for the emperor. Take a step back and say, if the princess is caught by Liu Yimin, it doesn't matter much, it's a political group, it's not as bad as we Xuanyin, they won't be a princess. Even if Liu Yimin is a hungry ghost in sè, after catching the princess, he covets beauty and occupies the princess, it is nothing. There are a lot of princesses and relatives in the history of Zhiyin, maybe they can achieve a good story and let Liu Yimin return to the Great Japanese Emperor Yinguo! ”

It's good that Prince Zaihito of the Xianyuan Palace didn't say this, but as soon as he said this, Emperor Hirohito immediately thought of the picture of Princess Hideko Jungong tactfully accepting joy under Liu Yimin. The cherry blossom-like delicate face, the starry eyes that seem to be open and closed, the skin that is like condensation, and the crispy breasts that are piled up, keep shaking in my mind. In particular, the coquettish cry and the sound of manyin seemed to pierce Emperor Hirohito's eardrums.

Emperor Hirohito roared "Baga", stretched out his hand and swept the contents of the imperial case to the ground, and the large vase of Shippo Yaki cherry blossoms that Emperor Hirohito's favorite and given to him by his mother when he ascended the throne fell to the ground with a crisp sound and fell to pieces.

Prince Zaihito of the palace knew that he was old and confused, and he said the wrong thing, and Princess Hideko Junnomiya had such an important position in the emperor's heart.

This is not to blame Prince Zairen of the Xianyuan Palace, Hideko Jungong has been secretly trained from xiǎo, and she has grown up and gone to school with a fake identity, and Prince Zairen of the Xianyuan Palace has never seen her at all, let alone understood her.

Knowing that he had said the wrong thing, Prince Zairen of the Xianyuan Palace no longer dared to rely on the old and sell the old, so he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

It may be that the sound of the precious Shippo yaki cherry blossom vase falling to the ground and breaking woke up Emperor Hirohito, and he came back to his senses, knowing that he had lost his temper, and he didn't want to be verbose with Prince Zaihito of the Idle Palace anymore, so he waved him away.

After Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace came out of the Pine Pavilion, he wiped the cold sweat on his head, and secretly scolded himself in his heart for being confused, and what he saw about the royal affairs was just the tip of the iceberg, what can he say!

Returning to the base camp office set up in the Imperial Palace, Shunroku Takaha and Toshiichi Terauchi, the military counselor, surrounded them, Prince Zaihito of the Imperial Palace ignored them, walked straight into the war room, ordered the staff officers to open the map of the Chinese battlefield, picked up the magnifying glass handed over by the staff officer on duty, and carefully examined the map for a moment, then turned to Shunroku Hata and Shouichi Terauchi who followed up and said: "Your Majesty has given permission to greatly expand the army, rebuild the 35th Division, expand the number of mixed brigades stationed in China to 23, and instruct the army to quickly restore law and order in North China. ”

As soon as he said this, Shunroku Hata and Shouichi Terauchi both had their eyes lit up, and they stood up one by one, shouting in unison, "Long live the Emperor!" ”

Shunroku Hata and Shouichi Terauchi both shouted, and the deputy chief of staff and staff officers in the war room all shouted "Long live the emperor", and that scene made modern people look at it, I am afraid that they will be afraid that they will feel that they are not xiǎo heart and walked into the jīng Yin Shen Yin Hospital.

The emperor is his grandson-in-law, and Prince Zaihito of the Idle Yuan Palace is old, and he has seen through all the gods and other things, knowing that it is all a lie made up by people like him at the behest of others, and he is too lazy to shout long live, waving his hand to let the staff officers withdraw, and then he said in a low and majestic tone: "This expansion of the army, do not want to spread the word, and carry it out quietly." Before the expansion of the army is completed, the Kwantung Army, the North China Front, the Central China Dispatch Army, and the 21st Army must not be notified, so as to avoid leakage of information. ”

This time, Shunroku Hata and Shouichi Terauchi did not shout long live the emperor again, nor did they say any nonsense such as the wisdom of His Royal Highness the Prince, but nodded and waited for Prince Zaihito of the Imperial Palace to make specific arrangements.

Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace paused and said, "Lord Lu Xiang, Your Majesty has ordered the 10th Division to be based on the division headquarters where the division has withdrawn to the mainland, and to recruit the reservists of the division; The Fifth Division is composed of left-behind divisions and reservists; The 2nd Division was formed with the remaining divisions and reservists. I am considering recruiting officers from among the reserve officers and forming them with new recruits from all over the country in the near future. This matter is in charge of Lord Lu Xiang, and it will be completed in advance. ”

The duty of the War Department is to be responsible for recruitment and training, and as for the purpose of the organized units, it is the business of the General Staff. Lu Xianghata Shunroku felt that he was duty-bound, and immediately nodded in agreement.

Terauchi Shouichi was terrified in North China, and he was finally relieved of the commander of the North China Front, and his psychological burden was suddenly gone. This military senator was an honorary position in itself, and there were not many practical affairs, so after Terauchi Shouichi returned to Japan, he was even exempted from going to the military headquarters, relying on the money looted from China, and lived happily. Sister Yazi xiǎo Yin was unwilling to face the sad eyes of her parents and the shameful laughter of others, so Suo Xìng asked Terauchi Shouyi to accept her as a concubine, accompanied Terauchi Shouichi, and lived the days of returning to the courtyard and going downstairs by the lights. After this matter reached the ears of Emperor Hirohito, Emperor Hirohito did not want the giant playthings in the army to lose his mind, lest the sword rust after a long time, and ordered Terauchi Shouichi to be on duty at the base camp every day to assist the chief of the general staff and the land minister in handling military affairs. In this way, Terauchi Shouichi's happy days ended in a very short time, and he had to accompany Prince Zaihito of Kanin and Shunroku Hata to command the war against China.

Shouichi Terauchi was a man who had a high prestige among the Japanese army. Although he is a veteran of playing yīn Yinmou and a murderer of suppressing the Imperial Dao faction, in the minds of junior officers and ordinary soldiers of the Japanese army, Terauchi Shouichi is cheerful and open-minded, used to take responsibility for his subordinates, and has a series of halos on his head, such as famous mén queen, earl, general, and land minister, and is a standard famous general. This is a bit similar to Yamamoto Fifty-six in the Navy. They are all war maniacs, with blood on their hands, but they are all heroes in the eyes of the Japanese.

Prince Zaihito of the Idle Yuan Palace gave Shunroku Hata the matter of conscription and marshalling the Yin team, and then gave Terauchi Shou a job. He asked Terauchi Shouichi to immediately organize Yinwen personnel to formulate a public security operation plan for North China against the Eighth Route Army, so as to stabilize the situation in North China in a war and clear the obstacles for the overall strategy of advancing north or south.

When the new Yin team of the Japanese army completed the formation, the main army captured Cangxian. The base camp of the Japanese army remained silent, but strictly ordered the North China Front Army to recover Cangxian, but secretly it was deploying troops and preparing to implement the battle plan formulated by Terauchi Shouichi.

The heavy assault tactics that Shouichi Terauchi engaged in last time were indeed very effective, although they were not successful. Now that so many new mixed brigades have been formed, as long as the Japanese army is over, the independent mixed brigades will immediately control the key points, and soon the base area of the Eighth Route Army will be completely turned into a Japanese occupation area. When the Japanese army restored the Japanese puppet political power in the base area of the Eighth Route Army and formed a defensive system, the situation of the Eighth Route Army would be difficult. Shouichi Terauchi knows this very well.

At this time in Japan, due to the disillusionment of the theory of quick victory and the successive victories of the Eighth Route Army, so many soldiers died on the battlefield in China, and many families who hoped to make a fortune by sending their sons and husbands to the battlefield did not receive money sent back by their sons and husbands, but urns or death notices. In addition, the abnormal development of the economy and the increase in the inflation rate have led to the fact that the surname Baiyin has to tighten his waist to pay food and money to support the military and Yin's troops in fighting, and there has been a war-weary mood among the people. Emperor Hirohito, Prince Zaihito of the Kanin Palace, and Kiichiro Hiranuma were war criminals who wanted to expand their military and aggression regardless of the people's livelihood and suffering.

This morning, in Hiroshima, Japan, Chieko, who had just become pregnant, woke up in the morning and found that there was no dàngdàng around her, and her husband Naoyoshi Okita didn't know what to do so early.

After Chieko got up, while tidying up her hair, she shouted "Okita-kun, Okita-kun!" ”

After shouting for a while and not seeing her husband agree, Chieko panicked and hurried out to look for it. Looking for it and disappearing, Chieko was wondering what to do, and her father-in-law, Mr. Chongtian, walked out of the room, and Yīn handed her a letter with a calm face.

The letter was written by Naoyoshi Okita: "Dear Chieko, thank you for loving me for so many years, and when I went to the battlefield to fight for the fate of our country's Yin family, I couldn't expect to return home alive. No matter what happens, stay calm and help your parents. I hope our baby will be born safely, Chieko, you must take good care of yourself."

After reading the letter, Chieko cried silently. The two sons of the neighbor Hase's family went to China and began to bring money back to the family, and Mr. Hase's people boasted about the courage of the Imperial Army and the vulnerability of the squadron. It wasn't until the postman sent two death notices that Mr. Hasei stopped boasting, and in the dead of night, the low cries of Hase's house penetrated through the walls and into people's ears, and the people could not sleep. Chieko didn't know if her Okita Naokichi would make it back alive, but she knew that the damn war had left many sons and husbands in Hokkaido to go to Japan to find them.

Chieko's father-in-law, Mr. Okita, was a professor who had studied in the UK, and when he saw Chieko's sadness, he said indignantly: "In England, people say that God bless the King of England, and with God's help, the King of England will be able to rule the United Kingdom." If he does not obey God's will, the people still have the right to oust him from the throne. But in Japan, we only have the right to die for the emperor, and no one can disobey the order to die for the emperor. Why waste so many children's lives in this damn war? ”

Chieko just cried mournfully.

The tanks of the Japanese army rumbled again.

This time, Prince Zaihito of the Imperial Palace, Shouichi Terauchi, and Shunroku Hata made great determination, risking the risk of the Eighth Route Army cutting off the southern section of the Jinpu Road again, and determined to concentrate their forces to carry out heavy encirclement and suppression of Liu Yimin's Shandong base area, completely annihilate the Shandong Eighth Route Army, and relieve the worries of the Japanese army from attacking the Soviet Union in the north or attacking Britain and the United States in the south. In other words, after this war, the Japanese army will have to keep its eyes open to the changes in the international situation, and be ready to follow Germany to the world stage at any time.

Terauchi Shouichi's original plan was to start with a surprise attack on southeastern and southern Lu, encircle the mountainous areas of central and southern Lu, completely destroy the foundation of the Eighth Route Army in Shandong, and then clear and suppress all the base areas of the Eighth Route Army in Shandong.

Now that the Eighth Route Army has captured Cangxian and seized the supplies of the Japanese army, Terauchi Shouichi immediately smelled the fighter planes from it, and immediately revised the battle plan, determined to take the heavy assault on the Jilu border as the prelude, and opened the prelude to the war of completely destroying Liu Yiminyin's main force. Of course, along the way, the lost materials are also recovered, and the Great Japanese Imperial Yinguo is no longer as good as before, and the materials are already very valuable, and the lost ones must be recovered.

The Japanese army is very good at sneak attacks. This time, Terauchi Shouichi was determined to give full play to the Japanese army's sneak attack tactics and roundabout outflanking tactics to the extreme, and completely encircled and annihilated the Eighth Route Army's Jilu border Yin team.

In order to achieve this goal, Terauchi Shouichi and Prince Zaihito of the Idle Yuan Palace, and Toshiroku Hatatake, after secret consultation, took several measures: First, to launch the Nanchang Campaign to attract the attention of the squadron to the upper and lower Yin, and to confuse Liu Yimin. For this reason, he did not hesitate to transfer the 16th Division in Suxian County and the 6th Division in Fuyang to the south, return the 11th Army to the 11th Army, and the commander of the 11th Army, Lieutenant General Okamura Ninji, organized Yinori to carry out the Nanchang attack operation. The second is to frequently mobilize the troops and brigades, transfer the Guards Division and the Fifth Division to China, and transport the First Division and the Second Division to the north by train and return them to the Kwantung Army. Third, before the campaign was launched, the news was tight, and even the North China Front Army was kept in the dark.

In 1939, the 1st Division of the 11th Army, with the support of the navy, searched the east bank of Poyang Lake, deployed troops at various key points to ensure the safety of the left side of the Yin Barrier and the main force of the Yin Army, which opened the prelude to the Battle of Nanchang.

On this day, the Japanese army base camp issued the second order for the North China security operation, and the battle code name was "Yong". Suddenly, a fleet of ships left the Japanese ports and headed for Shandong. The 1st and 2nd Divisions of the Kwantung Army, which had already withdrawn into Shanhai Yinguan, also received orders from the base camp and quickly moved south in concealment to encircle the Hebei and Shandong borders. The Fifth Division and the Guards Division of the Japanese Army, which were on the sea, also received orders to turn around and return westward, land in Bohai Bay, and raid the Jilu border. Including the armored brigade regiment, which had been ordered to move south along the Pinghan Road, also received an order to stop the advance, transport the vehicles to Cangxian County, and participate in the assault on the Hebei-Lu border.

It was only at this time that the commander of the North China Front, General Shanshan Yuan, received an operational order for the Second North China Public Security Campaign.

Shanshan Yuan, who was in the dark, looked at the battle plan sent by the special plane from Japan, and then he knew that he was ruthless, Emperor Hirohito, Prince Zaihito of the Kanin Palace, and Shouichi Terauchi were more ruthless than him, and he was not angry but happy, and couldn't help but shout Yo Xi!

Jilubian, can it withstand the test of wind and rain?
