Lieutenant General Sasaki Zhiyi, the commander of the 3rd Brigade of the Reading Power Mixed Regiment stationed in Weixian, was a devilish general in the army who was very politically savvy and strategically visioned.

In 1886, Sasaki was originally from Fukui Prefecture, and he was born in Matsuyama City, Aijin Prefecture, and grew up in Hiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture. In November 1905, Toichi Sasaki graduated from the 18th class of the Army Non-commissioned Officer School, and was a classmate of Yamashita Fumi, Okabe Naosaburo, and Anan Yuki. After graduating, due to his failure to apply for the Army University, he came to the Northeast with the Fifth Division of his unit and served as a second lieutenant in the railway garrison, and thus began his criminal career of aggression.

Sasaki claims to be the biggest China expert in the army, but this is not exactly his boasting. During his stay in the Northeast, this guy was attracted by the Xinhai Revolution and began to set his sights on the early Kuomintang and was determined to study the China question. At that time, he was young and romantic, and he spent all his savings on geisha, and he wanted to stay in Tohoku to develop. Later, his seniors in the army told him that if he wanted to truly become a China expert, he had to graduate from Lu University. As a result, he applied for the Army University for the third time and was successful, graduating from the Army University in 1917 in the 29th class. Then he went to China and served in Qingdao and the Northeast Army. In 1922, he was dispatched to Guangzhou as a military attache by the General Staff Headquarters. Here he met Sun Yat-sen, saw the temporary new atmosphere of the Kuomintang during the Guangzhou Revolution, and concluded that the Kuomintang would inevitably become a force to confront the Yanjing political axe.

During his stay in Guangzhou, Sasaki did three things, one was to serve as Sun Yat-sen's military adviser, observe the battle against Chen Jiongming, and admire the Whampoa Military Academy. Second, 200 maps of Guangdong were obtained, and a map of Hong Kong was drawn up, which were necessary maps for the later military operations. Third, according to his own words, the Kuomintang's tunic was also designed by him in a suit shop in Shamian, of course, this is only his own statement. In any case, Sasaki was sympathetic and understanding of the Kuomintang during his time in Guangzhou, although his main duty was to do some spy work to steal maps. For this reason, he was once regarded as mentally ill by the military leadership.

When Chiang Kai-shek launched the April 12 coup, Sasaki went to Chiang Kai-shek's side again and viciously cursed [***] that "in fact he is so ruthless, that he is an animal and not a human being", and urinated into a pot with Chiang Kai-shek, who was massacring [***], and went north with Chiang Kai-shek's Northern Expeditionary Army.

After observing the Northern Expedition, Sasaki was a little frightened, because he found that the result of the Northern Expedition would inevitably be China's national reunification, and in this way, the interests of the Yue army in the northeast would be damaged, and thus there would inevitably be a confrontation between China and China. Moreover, he believed that Chiang Kai-shek did not inherit the ideas of Sun Yat-sen, and that his troops were no different from those of the warlords.

Michiichi Sasaki, who woke up, tore off his mask and was transferred to the northeast as a political adviser to the puppet Manchurian [***]. In the Northeast, he did three things, one was to drive all the puppet troops in the Northeast to the battlefield of invading Rehe, and later pushed to the Songhu battlefield. The second is to reorganize the Manchurian Defense Forces and turn them into accomplices and loyal lackeys of the Manchurian Defense Forces with relatively strong combat effectiveness. For example, he stipulated that the Manchurian Defense Forces should be given a fixed number of bullets, and each soldier could only have 30 rounds of ammunition, and if the battle failed, the troops should be immediately disbanded, and the commander-in-chief should be held accountable until he was shot. Not only did it lead to a sharp rise in the price of bullets in the black market in Northeast China, but it also made it impossible for the Anti-United Nations to replenish bullets at all. In this way, the combat effectiveness of the Manchurian Defense Army increased rapidly, and even without the cooperation of the Japanese army, it independently carried out a great crusade against the nine counties of the eastern province and won the victory. Third, two plans, namely, the "Three-Year Plan for the Suppression of Public Order and Rectification in Manchukuo" and the "Plan for the Construction of Group Tribes," were formulated, and while militarily cracking down on the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation, the policy of separating the "people and bandits" was implemented, and the logistical supply of the Anti-Japanese Federation was cut off. These two plans were carried out by the Kwantung Army to the letter, and Sasaki never stopped after he left office. It can be said that the defeat of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation is, fundamentally speaking, a defeat in the hands of China's Tosaki.

After the Lugou Bridge Incident, Sasaki was transferred to the 16th Division as the commander of the 30th Brigade of the 16th Division, first to North China and then to Shanghai, and participated in the capture of Nanjing. Of course, due to the correct tactics adopted in Nanjing, the army did not slaughter the city as it did in history, and Sasaki Zhiichi did not commit as many sins as in history. Historically, Sasaki to Ichi, a Chinese expert, used all his knowledge in the Nanjing Massacre, and the two famous "100 beheading" devils were all Sasaki Toichi's subordinates. Therefore, Sasaki Toichi, a well-written and knowledgeable China expert, is also one of the main culprits of the Nanjing Massacre, and the rolling Yangtze River water cannot wash away the ugly patches on his soul under the appearance of Sven.

On the evening of August 26, Sasaki went to rest early as soon as he had eaten dinner and finished writing his notes. Because he felt that the base camp was very unfair to him, although he had just been awarded the rank of lieutenant general in February, to let him, a lieutenant general with strategic thinking, be the commander of the third brigade and regiment, was not to reuse him, and insulted his wisdom and contribution. He felt that it was okay not to let him be the division commander of a permanent division or a garrison division, and at least he should be made the chief of staff of a certain front army. It turned out to be good, planning and planning, and finally let him serve as the commander of the third brigade of the Reading Power Mix, Amaterasu didn't know what he was busy with, and he didn't care about such a big grievance. In this case, what does the fucking Xuzhou battle look like, go to sleep.

Sasaki didn't know that in history, his reading power mixed into the 3rd Brigade was to cooperate with the 16th Division, but due to the arrival of Liu Yimin, the history was a little corrected, and he had to stay in Weixian to protect the Jiaoji Railway.

Of course, Sasaki Michiichi didn't sleep alone, and the third brigade of the Reading Force Mixed Group came from five young female medical guards from the country, and they were giggling all day long, and Sasaki saw that they didn't look like soldiers at all, so he trained them to be brave. That is, four Chinese were captured and the female soldiers were armed with rifles and stabbed to death with bayonets.

These five female soldiers are all girls who have just left high school, and they have just undergone a round of recruit training, and they are elated on the way to the training ground, and the most beautiful of them, Mieko and Takahashi Kayo, see Sasaki Toichi's eyes on their chests, not only are they not shy, but they sing a little song, which makes Sasaki's thoughtful heart sway like an 18-year-old boy.

When they arrived at the training ground, Lieutenant Yamada, who was in charge of carrying out the courageous education, took the female soldiers to the four bound prisoners, and then called out one of the soldiers to demonstrate. The soldier walked up to a tall captive with a bright sword, and when he saw the captive smiling, he made a big fuss, and with a wave of his sword, he cut off the head of the captive there, and rolled on the grass, and the blood on the captive's body spurted out.

The five female soldiers vomited with a wow, and the fattest girl was even scared to pee on the spot, and the smell of scratching made Sasaki, who was watching the training, involuntarily take out a handkerchief and cover her nose.

Lieutenant Yamada was not moved by the embarrassment of the female soldiers, and coldly ordered Mieko to start training.

After receiving the rifles handed over by the men, Mieko was so frightened that she staggered a little. Lieutenant Yamada went up and slapped her twice, scolding her for losing the face of the Imperial Army, not a soldier. This scolding really worked. Mieko picked up her rifle, closed her eyes, and even tried to feed, and with a "yah", she stabbed the bayonet into the chest of a captive in front of her, and blood sprayed her face. Mieko subconsciously tightened her arms, pulled out her bayonet and stabbed it again, but the captive had already fallen to the ground, and Mieko stabbed in the air, using too much force, and she fell to the ground herself.

This time, the beast surnames of the other four female soldiers were aroused, and several people were laughing at Mieko's cowardice and shame, and the fat girl who was still peeing her pants just now didn't know where the evil fire came from, and she actually ran up and grabbed the rifle in Mieko's hand and stabbed the prisoner who fell to the ground to death.

The next situation was the same as the courageous education that Sasaki Toichi often organized in the Tohoku, and several female soldiers all pounced, stabbing all the captives to death with one knife at a time, and the technique gradually became proficient.

The results of the courageous education are satisfactory. Although the faces of the five female soldiers were a little pale and their eyes were a little confused after the incident, the experienced Sasaki knew that since then there have been five more loyal and brave female soldiers in the army. So, Sasaki, who cared about his subordinates, took two of the most beautiful female soldiers, Mieko and Kayo Takahashi, back to the headquarters and comforted them personally. The remaining three were handed over to Lieutenant Yamada to comfort them.

Sasaki, who was anxious to stabilize Mieko and Kayo Takahashi, went to bed like a beast, and vented all his grievances against the base camp on Mieko and Kayo Takahashi, and used the skills he learned from the geisha back then, and tortured the two little tigresses to the point of crying wolf. Sasaki didn't fall asleep until he finished venting.

When the gunshots rang out, Sasaki was still indulging in his dreams. In his sleep, he seemed to have returned to the Guangzhou era, saw Mr. Zhongshan again, and defended himself in the face of Mr. Zhongshan's somewhat pitying gaze: "It's not that I like to kill, I'm just a soldier, I can only think about my country." The interests of the Great Saying do not require China to be unified and strong. A unified and strong China will make it impossible for the people of this country and even the people of the world to sleep. ”

Mr. Nakayama still looked at him with pity, and said lightly, "When a poisonous snake bites, it must be very proud, but no matter how vicious the poisonous snake is, it is just the target of the snake catcher, and it is destined to end no good." ”

Sasaki was about to make another sophistry, and Mr. Nakayama suddenly disappeared. Sasaki shouted in a hoarse voice, "Teacher, teacher!" "But I couldn't find Mr. Nakayama. At this time, Sasaki, who was asleep, was awakened by the fierce gunshots.

Sasaki was born as a professional soldier, and subconsciously rolled out of bed as soon as he heard the gunshot, so frightened that Mieko and Takahashi Kayo, who were also awakened, exclaimed continuously.

Sasaki was furious, he knew that the most taboo thing in a battle was to reveal the commander's position, and whispered to the two crazy female soldiers not to make a sound, and then he dressed up neatly, opened the door, and shouted what happened.

A staff officer ran over to report that Tubalu had attacked the West Gate and was now fighting with the Imperial soldiers on the city wall for control of the city wall. The chief of staff has ordered the infantry to counterattack at the west gate and wipe out the Tubalu.

As soon as Sasaki heard the report, he went up to the roof of the small yellow building to observe the battle situation.

At this time, the main force of the Eighth Brigade had already entered the city in a big way. Zuo Ye, chief of staff of the Eighth Brigade and commander of the 22nd Regiment, set up a headquarters on the city wall of the West Gate, commanded the soldiers of the 22nd Regiment to divide into two routes, and under the guidance of the 1st Special Operations Squadron, they quickly advanced along the city wall to the north gate, the south gate, and the east gate, intending to quickly control the city fortifications and catch turtles in an urn for the devils.

After Zhao Shan and Zhao Jie led the 23rd Regiment and the New First Regiment and the Supplementary Regiment to come up, the three regiments formed dozens of arrows in a company unit, interspersed into the city.

Zhao Shan saw that the devils had not fully reacted, and our army was progressing smoothly, so he decided to deploy the troops directly under the brigade along the city wall to prevent the devils from counterattacking.

This left leaf is very famous in military history, before the Autumn Harvest Uprising was the captain of the riot, after the Autumn Harvest Uprising went to Jinggang Mountain, because of the literacy soon stood out, participated in the previous anti-encirclement campaigns, before the establishment of the Red Eighth Army Corps, transferred to the Red Eighth Army Logistics Minister and Supply Minister, political commissar. In the Battle of Xiangjiang, the Red Eighth Army was scattered, and only the logistics troops and porters led by Zuo Ye kept the team relatively intact and caught up with the main force. This makes [***] attach great importance to him. Historically, after the Red First and Fourth Front Armies met, Zuo Ye was sent to the Fourth Front Army, and because of his opposition to Zhang Guotao's southward movement, his position was demoted again and again, and he became a staff officer. During the Anti-Japanese War, Zuo Ye went to Jizhong, served as the deputy chief of staff of the 17th Regiment of the Jizhong Army, and later served as the commander of the 22nd Regiment, fought the famous Battle of Songzhuang, and was promoted to the commander of the Dongye Independent Second Division during the Liberation War. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zuo Ye went to work in the local area, and it is said that because of the construction of the road, he had a big quarrel with Mr. Peng in Yanjing and lost the opportunity to be awarded.

Of course, the situation is different now, and many tragedies have been avoided, but Zuo Ye did not pay attention to the way he spoke, which made many comrades feel that it was difficult to work with him, and when the Red Army was reorganized, Zuo Ye, who had not been assigned a suitable job since the Xiangjiang Campaign, was even more difficult to arrange suitable positions, and could only study at Kang Da. As a result, [***] cherished his talents, remembering that Liu Yimin's surname was more cheerful than that of several other division commanders, so he asked Zuo Ye to report to Liu Yimin. But at this time, the main cadres of the instructor were all ready, not to mention the brigade commander, and there was not even the position of the main regiment commander. It was not until the establishment of the Eighth Brigade that Zuo Ye served as the chief of staff of the Eighth Brigade and the commander of the 22nd Regiment. Although the position is a little lower, Zuo Ye is dedicated to fighting, but he feels that he has made the best use of his talents, and he is very happy to take office.

Zuo Ye admired Liu Yimin very much, and if he didn't say anything else, he rushed to the first squadron of special warfare with his neat skills, and he felt that this instructor was a well-deserved first-class main force of our army. Now that the No. 1 Special Operations Squadron has occupied the West Gate, what is left to the 22nd Regiment and the other units of the Eighth Brigade is to control the city defense, then to repel the counterattack of the devils, and the third step is to encircle and annihilate the devils. This battle is naturally confident for Zuo Ye, an old Red Army general who came out of the Autumn Harvest Uprising.

The devil struck back at the west gate.

This little devil does have a set of wars. At the same time as the infantry guns were fired, heavy machine guns and grenadiers were also fired. Moreover, the infantry and artillery coordinated very well, and when the cannonballs were falling on the city wall, the infantry quietly touched the base of the city wall along the street.

The Eighth Brigade of Jiaojiao has been organized for the shortest time among the main brigades of the instructors, but the soldiers are all veterans of the Central Army and the Jinsui Army who participated in the Battle of Taiyuan, and they have been trained in a solid manner, and after the cadres at all levels brought by Zhao Shan and Zhao Jie were trained in accordance with the Red Army's infantry training program, their mental outlook and combat skills immediately rose to a higher level. In particular, our army's style of striving for a common goal has thoroughly united these former soldiers, and learning culture and making progress has become a new trend for the whole brigade.

The devils under the city wall saw that the killing sound at the north gate and the south gate shook the sky, and the west gate was quiet, only the familiar infantry cannons, grenadiers, and Type 92 heavy machine guns were suppressing fire on the city wall.

Zuo Ye has a short temper, and has long been furious by the order not to use the cannon. Seeing that the devil didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and still wanted to fight for the city wall, he ordered the guard battalion and engineer battalion defending the city wall to concentrate on dropping bombs. A round of grenades came down, and the devils who fought back were blown apart. The heavy machine guns, mortars, and grenadiers of the fire support battalion of the Eighth Brigade were taught on the city wall to fire, although they could not use artillery fire to attack the devil fire points on the streets of the city for fear of accidentally injuring the residents, but when these devils arrived at the open horse running road under the city wall, Zuo Ye naturally would not be polite, and personally picked up a heavy machine gun and turned it on.

The devil's infantry artillery, grenadier canisters, and heavy machine guns on the streets of the city did not wreak havoc for long, because the soldiers of the 23rd Regiment, the New Eighth Regiment, and the Supplementary Regiment were all aimed at them, and took advantage of the street cover to touch the back of the devil's firepower point.

Wang Laohu, this guy is simply born to fight.

After the large army came up, Wang Laohu led the second squad of the first squadron of special operations to the north city gate. His special operations squad led the 24th Regiment to capture Dongguanwu, while the third squad rushed to the south gate.

At this time, the gunfire at the west gate had already awakened the devils at the north gate, and the searchlights on the city tower began to shine outside the city and in the direction of the west gate, and the devils' machine guns and grenadiers had also begun to fire at the troops entering the city in the direction of the west gate.

Seeing that he could no longer conceal the enemy, Wang Laohu ordered the second squad to form an attack formation and capture the north gate.
