Chapter 863: The Tangled Tada Jun

Chapter 863 The tangled Tada Jun

On the evening of 6 October, Tada Jun, commander of the Japanese North China Front, was not idle, and discussed with Chief of Staff Yoshizumi Ryosuke, the big traitor Wang Kemin, and Qi Kuiyuan at the North China Front Headquarters in Beiping......

Tada Jun is not as good as Shouichi Terauchi and Sugi Moto. Terauchi Shouichi has a Miss Masako, and Sugi Sugimoto has a beautiful writer Hayashi Fumiko. Tada Jun came late, and he didn't have time to find a special mistress like Masako and Fumiko Hayashi, so at best, he could only find female soldiers in the Japanese army to put out the fire. Most of the time, the thin and thin Tada Jun was lonely and sleepless, so that Tada Jun slept less and had more time to think about how to deal with the Eighth Route Army.

At this time, Tada's mood was generally very good. The reason for this is that the implementation of the cage policy is off to a good start. The troops directly under the Front Army dug blockade ditches and built strongholds on both sides of the Pinghan Road; Shanxi's First Army built strongholds and pillboxes along the Zhengtai Railway, and began to dig blockade ditches and build strongholds on both sides of the Tongpu Road. The Twelfth Army began construction of the Deshi Railway, which, if completed, would be able to connect Shanxi and Shandong. In this way, the railway transportation will be connected with the sea transportation of Qingdao, Tianjin and Lianyungang. Coal and iron ore from Shanxi, coal, iron ore and copper ore from Shandong, and grain and cotton from Hebei can all be continuously shipped back to Japan to curb domestic economic inflation and allow the country to produce more weapons and ammunition to support the Greater East Asian Holy War.

The biggest advantage of building the Deshi Road is still in the military. As long as this railway is completed, the Shanxi battlefield and the Shandong battlefield can be integrated by railway, greatly increasing the speed of troop transfer, and there is no longer a need for troops to take a train from Shanxi to Shijiazhuang to get off and rush to Shandong on foot, nor do they need to let soldiers take a train to Beiping and then transfer to Jinpu Road to go south, but can transfer Shandong troops to Shanxi and Shanxi troops to Shandong in the shortest possible time through Deshi Road, which connects Jinpu Road, Jiaoji Road, Pinghan Road, Zhengtai Road, and Tongpu Road, thus greatly saving time in transporting troops and improving combat efficiency.

Tada Jun imagined that relying on the railway, one permanent division could be turned into several permanent divisions and regiments, and that Shandong would be able to attack Shanxi after the battle, and Shanxi would be able to attack Henan after the attack, and it would also play the role of a surprise attack. If this is the case, five or six divisions can be concentrated, and suddenly the troops will come to Zhongtiao Mountain in Shanxi, and drive the Wei Lihuang clique entrenched in Zhongtiao Mountain out of Zhongtiao Mountain. It is also possible to concentrate five or six divisions and regiments to suddenly sweep the Eighth Route Army's southern Hebei and Luxi base areas, drive the Eighth Route Army out of this area, and let them feed the fish in the Yellow River or go to the Taihang Mountain to become the king of the mountain. It can also be used by railway and water transportation to suddenly mobilize more than a dozen divisions to attack the Yimeng Mountains, the old nest of the Eighth Route Army in Shandong, and put an end to Liu Yimin's old nest to see if he can still be so arrogant.

Tada Jun even envisioned that after the Deshi Road was built, a few more railways would be built in Shandong. Among them, two horizontal, one from Handan, Hebei to Liaocheng, Tai'an, and Laiwu in Shandong, and one from Henan to Heze, Jining, Linyi, and Rizhao; The longitudinal two, one from Hebei Hengshui to the south, through the Luxi Plain south to Heze, to Shangqiu and Longhai Road to communicate; The other is in the east of Shandong, with Jiaozhou as the one, through the southeast plain of Shandong to Linyi and then south to Tancheng and Longhai Road.

Tada Jun believed that as long as these railways were completed, the entire Shandong and Hebei would be divided into squares, and with the system of good citizen certificates, the Japanese Army would soon wipe out the Eighth Route Army in Hebei and Shandong piece by piece.

Roads are much easier to do, with less wasted materials and can be built faster, as long as there is enough coolie. Tada Jun thought, there is a shortage of everything, but there is no shortage of people. Instead of letting those young and middle-aged people run with the Eighth Route Army, it is better to arrest them all to work as coolies and build railways and highways for the imperial army.

Railways and highways were the pillars of the imperial army's control of North China. That's what Tada thinks.

As for most of these railways and highways, they had to be built in the base areas of the Eighth Route Army, and it was inevitable that there would be several fierce battles, and Tada Jun was not afraid. His idea was to first repair the Deshi Road, wait for the Deshi Road to be completed, and have armored patrol vehicles patrolling the railways every day, completely separate the central and southern Hebei provinces, thoroughly clear the central Hebei region, completely drive away the Tuba Road in the central Hebei region, and stabilize the hinterland of the North China Plain, and then mobilize heavy troops to clear the southern Hebei and western Hebei provinces, completely turn the east of the Pinghan Road, the north of the Longhai Road, and the west of the Yellow River into a consolidated occupation area, vigorously expand the public security forces in the central Hebei, southern Hebei, and western Hebei, and set up maintenance committees at all levels, and make use of the rich products and human resources in this region. Support the next step of the sub-district clearance of the hinterland of Shandong, until Liu Yimin's instructor is completely compressed in the Yimeng Mountains and annihilated in one go.

This is just an assumption, and it will take a huge number of troops and time to make it happen. However, Tada Jun had participated in the heavy encirclement and suppression of Shandong by Terauchi Shouichi, was familiar with the operational characteristics of the Eighth Route Army, and was also familiar with the geographical characteristics of Shandong, and after carefully summing up the lessons of Terauchi Shouichi and Shanshan Moto, Tada Jun felt that the cage policy he had engaged in was much more clever than the two of them. If Terauchi Shouichi was not in a hurry at that time, but steadily and steadily, gradually advancing, supplemented by the blockade of the communication line, Tada Jun believed that Liu Yimin would not have escaped from the encirclement, attacked Lianyungang, and went south to northern Jiangsu, making the imperial army embarrassed and losing so many troops in vain.

Because of this guiding ideology, at dinner, Tada Jun, Chief of Staff Yoshizumi Ryosuke, and Deputy Chief of Staff Hirata Masashi made an appointment to meet with Wang Kemin and Qi Kuiyuan.

Wang Kemin and Qi Kuiyuan are very sensible, when they came, they went to the famous Tongheju restaurant in Beiping to ask for a table of first-class noodles, and also called three famous senior girls in Beiping, dressed up in fancy clothes, and came with the two of them, wanting to have a good chat with the three leaders of the Japanese army in North China. It just so happened that Tada Jun also wanted to entrap Wang Kemin and Qi Kuiyuan, so he rewarded these two dogs for eating together.

Tada Jun looked for Wang Kemin and Qi Kuiyuan to learn about the cage policy and the progress of the construction of the correction, and Wang Kemin and Qi Kuiyuan also wanted to report to him. Now, the two sides are in a pot. This meal was very delicious.

However, it is said that it is particularly tasteful, it is said to Tada Jun and Yoshizumi Ryosuke, and for Wang Kemin, it is perfunctory to pinch his nose.

Wang Kemin had just returned from Nanjing, and he was sent to participate in the negotiations with Wang Jingwei by Kenji Tu Feiyuan. The main thing is to negotiate the abolition of the puppet provisional government of the Republic of China and the puppet restoration government of the Republic of China, and the establishment of a unified Wang puppet central government. Wang Kemin came back with a stomach full of anger and had dinner with Tada Jun, naturally he was in a bad mood. Because once Wang Jingwei's puppet central government is established, Wang Kemin's puppet provisional government of the Republic of China and Liang Hongzhi's puppet Republic of China restoration government will have to close their doors and change their signboards. Can Wang Kemin be as good as the funeral examination approval?

Wang Jingwei wants to organize a nationwide puppet regime, and Wang Kemin also wants to organize it. Since you have sold yourself to the Japanese, you have to sell it for a good price. Although they are the same traitors and the same Japanese dogs, dogs are different from dogs, and traitors are not the same as traitors.

Although Wang Jingwei was a traitor, he didn't want others to say that he was a traitor, and he still had to play the sign of Sun Yat-sen's heir, pretending to save the country and the people, and practice his idea of peaceful nation-building. The purpose of the Sixth National Congress of the Kuomintang was to elect him chairman of the Kuomintang and to announce to the people that he represented the Kuomintang and the Nationalist Government. It is typical to want to be a son and want to set up a memorial arch.

Wang Kemin is different, he is a typical speculative politician, who is a mother if he has milk, and he has no isms, ideals, or political propositions in his mind, and some are just powerful positions. When the Japanese came to Shanghai to look for him, they positioned him as the actual person responsible for the puppet regime, not as a leader who "called on the Kuomintang military and political personnel to join the banner of the new regime." This is mainly because the Japanese think that Wang Kemin is just a politician with no prestige, a "money devil" who helps the Beiyang warlord government amass people's wealth.

Wang Kemin's views and attitudes towards the Japanese are very clear, and he also knows that the first leaders of the puppet government that the Japanese fancy were Jin Yunpeng, Wu Peifu, and Cao Rulin, but unfortunately they are unwilling to cooperate with the Japanese, and the Japanese can only retreat to him. It is precisely for this reason that the puppet regime formed by the North China Front Army has the word "temporary" and has become the "provisional government of the Republic of China." It was this provisional government that the Japanese only made Wang Kemin the chairman of the executive committee, not the chairman or prime minister.

Wang Kemin didn't feel anything wrong at the beginning, he turned out to be a frustrated politician, and the Japanese used him to be the de facto emperor of North China, and he was very grateful. But later, Wang Kemin, who tasted the sweetness, slowly grew his ambitions, and always wanted to remove the word "temporary" from the puppet provisional government of the Republic of China and form a national regime, so that he could become the real emperor.

Wang Kemin's puppet provisional government of the Republic of China was established with the support of the North China Front Army and the Japanese Army Ministry, and the Ministry of the Navy and the Central China Dispatch Army supported Liang Hongzhi in establishing the puppet Republic of China Restoration Government.

In order to realize his dream, Wang Kemin first knotted Shouyi in the temple, and then knotted Shanshan Yuan, and sent gold bars. Shouichi Terauchi and Shanshan Yuan also went to Wang Kemin's house to visit his concubine, and they did help him. Wang Kemin's request for the report on the merger of the puppet Provisional Government of the Republic of China and the Restoration Government of the puppet Republic of China was also sent to the desk of the Japanese Prime Minister. Wang Kemin himself went to Japan to report to Konoe Fumima. To Wang Kemin's regret, Konoe Bunma didn't like the emaciated smoker Wang Kemin at all, and told him to his face that he did not support him as the head of the puppet same regime.

After running into a wall at Konoe Wenma, Wang Kemin did not give up and directly lobbied Liang Hongzhi. However, due to the competing interests of the Japanese North China Front and the Central China Front, Wang Kemin did not make a fuss. It was not until 22 September last year that Wang Kemin and Liang Hongzhi negotiated in Beiping and set up a "Joint Committee of the Government of the Republic of China," which was composed of three people from each of Wang Kemin and Liang Hongzhi. The three committee members on Wang Kemin's side are Wang Kemin, Wang Yitang, and Zhu Shen, and the three committee members on Liang Hongzhi's side are Liang Hongzhi, Wen Zongyao, and Chen Qun. Wang Kemin served as the "chairman of the committee" and implemented the three major policies of opposing communism, not recognizing the Nationalist Government, and working closely with Japan. The two puppet governments of the north and the south achieved a formal union. But this government federation is actually a loose organization, and the two major traitor systems, one south and one north, are not subordinate to anyone.

When Wang Jingwei surrendered to the enemy, the Japanese government turned to support Wang Jingwei in forming a puppet unified regime, and no longer paid attention to Wang Kemin, so angry that the roots of Wang Kemin's teeth were sour.

Wang Kemin, who does not give up, is too lazy to deal with Wang Jingwei, and always gives Wang Jingwei problems. When Wang Jingwei came to Peking in June to negotiate secretly with Wang Kemin, in front of Shanshanyuan, commander of the North China Front, Wang Kemin refused to give Wang Jingwei face, saying that he was 70 years old and was ready to retire and did not plan to join Wang Jingwei's central government. If Wang Jingwei insisted that he participate, he would be based in Beiping. The implication was that Wang Jingwei would form a puppet central government on the basis of his puppet provisional government. As a result, Wang Jingwei did not give a clear reply, and Wang Kemin held a press conference in Beiping, announcing that the puppet provisional government of the Republic of China did not support Wang Jingwei in forming a puppet central government, and attacked Wang Jingwei and fabricated a lie that the Kwantung Army was preparing to let the Manchurian Emperor move to Beiping, and as long as the Kwantung Army gave an order, Xuantong would return to Beiping City. He also said that the Kwantung Army would also help Wu Peifu out of the mountain, and once Wu Yushuai left the mountain, the Japanese would not have to deal with Wang Jingwei.

Wang Jingwei originally planned to announce the establishment of a puppet central government on October 9, but as a result, Wang Kemin and Liang Hongzhi both said that they had not received a notice from the Japanese military organs and refused to attend the political meeting chaired by Wang Jingwei, resulting in the abortion of the political meeting.

In this way, the Japanese could not sit still. In particular, after the defeat of the Japanese army in Nomenhan and the coming to power of Abe Shin's administration, they regarded supporting Wang Jingwei to establish a puppet central power as a basic national policy. So, the veteran spy leader Kenji Dohihara went out again, got Wang Kemin and Liang Hongzhi to Nanjing, and negotiated with Wang Jingwei again.

This time, Tu Feiyuan told Wang Kemin and Liang Hongzhi that it was the decision of the Great Japanese Cabinet to support Wang Jingwei in establishing a unified central government. If the two of them are no longer interested, they should not go back.

Wang Kemin and Liang Hongzhi are not afraid of Wang Jingwei, but they are afraid of their Japanese masters. Under the manipulation of Dohirahara, Imai Takeo and others, Wang Jingwei, Wang Kemin, and Liang Hongzhi fought for several days, and finally reached an agreement on September 21: first, a central political conference was convened to be responsible for the preparation and establishment of the government; After the establishment of the government, the Central Political Committee was set up to be responsible for discussing politics; The Central Political Council is allocated one-third to the Kuomintang, one-third to the Provisional and Restoration Governments, and the remaining one-third to the Mongolian and Xinjiang governments and other parties and non-party personages; The method of decision-making of the Central Political Conference is that all or more than three-quarters of the members must agree to decide on important matters, and more than one-half of the members may agree to decide on ordinary matters. The name of the government, the capital, the national flag, etc., should be discussed and unanimously adopted by the Central Political Conference.
