Deeply mourn the compatriots who died in Yushu. \.qβV. Com postponed publication until the early hours of the morning. The General Headquarters of the Chinese Dispatch Army also prepared an operational plan, the attack on Wuhan was divided into three routes, Jiangnan was attacked by the newly formed 11th Army along the south bank of the Yangtze River, first occupied Tongling Anqing as the starting point of the campaign, and then attacked the Nanxun line with one section, and the main force continued to attack along the south bank of the Yangtze River with the support of the navy; Jiangbei was divided into two routes, the first route was undertaken by the First Army, and launched an offensive in the north of Henan, first attacking Zhengzhou, then attacking Xinyang along the Pinghan line south, and then detouring to the rear of Wuhan; The Second Army first attacked along the north bank of the Yangtze River, broke the Chinese Army on the north bank of the Yangtze River, drove it to the Dabie Mountains, and then marched the main force north. encircled and annihilated the main force of the five theaters south of Zaoyang; After annihilating the main force of the Fifth Theater Army, it turned south and attacked Wuhan from the north.

Compared with the two Jinpu Road operations, this plan was much more low-key, and only consisted in encircling and annihilating the 49th Group Army south of Zaoyang. The south bank of the Yangtze River is dominated by defeat battles, and the previous arrogance is simply different from each other.

For this operation, China dispatched 50 divisions and regiments, nearly 700,000 people. Manchuria was again emptied, and 20 new divisions were formed in the country, and four brigades were formed in Taiwan and North Korea, all of which were transferred to China. All the veteran units with combat experience stationed in Shanxi and Jiangnan were transferred to the front line, and the remaining defense areas were taken over by new units transferred from China.

Nishio was very dissatisfied with the operational plan put forward by Nanjing, which completely ignored the growing threat posed by the Eighth Route Army in various parts of North China, and transferred all the garrisons familiar with the local situation and replaced them with new units with no combat experience at all, and the public order situation was bound to deteriorate in an all-round way.

Today, in order to cooperate with the peace action of Deputy Chief of Staff Takeo Imai and Yoshiaki Kagesa, Tada Jun made an exception and led the high-ranking generals who had come to the meeting to pay homage to the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, and at the same time privately exchanged views with Nishio Shouzo to win his approval to this plan, and he already felt that Nishio Shouzo wanted to oppose the Nanjing plan.

Tada Jun and Nishio Toshizo walked slowly in front, and the officers behind also scattered in all directions, talking around the memorial hall in twos and threes. Many officers who have not seen each other for a long time take advantage of this time to catch up, and Ligao Support and Netmura Ningji are like this.

"I haven't seen you for a long time." Netmura Ningji's memory is obviously very good, and he didn't spend much time with Ligao support back then, but he remembered Ligao support.

Ligao was a little surprised, and he said with some gratitude: "It's been seven years since Manchuria was farewell, but I didn't expect General Wangcun to remember me." ”

"How can a young man like you forget" Netmura Ningci's thin face smiled, revealing some scorched teeth: "I heard about your performance in the past few years, but it's a pity that the general of the Rotten Mountain didn't follow your advice, otherwise the defeat of Yucheng could have been completely avoided." ”

The defeat of Yucheng was a pain in the hearts of the Japanese army, and the good situation was cut off in one fell swoop. Accountability after the war. On the contrary, the investigation team sent by the military headquarters spoke highly of the high support, believing that if the battle was carried out according to his advice, not only the defeat of Yucheng would be avoided, but also the setback on the south bank of the Yellow River would be avoided. Compared to him, the head of the combat department, Jiang Teng, could only comment on stupidity, and every suggestion he made led the imperial army to disaster, and he was inescapable of taking responsibility for the losses on the south bank of the Yellow River and Yucheng. It is advisable to transfer it away.

In the end, the unlucky Eto became the scapegoat of Motoyama and Naosaburo Amibe, and was almost sent to a military court, and was demoted to North Korea. The findings of the investigation team became an important basis for the promotion of the high support team.

Netmura Ningji has been silently paying attention to the evolution of the Chinese battlefield, he has read the report of the investigation team, and feels that the name Ligao support is very familiar, and he remembers it when he thinks about it, he was deeply impressed by Ligao support at the beginning, and now he appreciates it even more, so he comes to reminisce at every opportunity.

"The general has a good reputation," a trace of "sorrow" flashed in the eyes of Li Gao's support, and he said solemnly: "The defeat of Yucheng is not a shame for one person, but a shame for all of us, and I, as a member of the combat class, have failed to change the situation of the battle. I also have an unshirkable responsibility, so I don't think it's appropriate for me to be the head of the Operations Division. ”

Gangcun shook his head and said gently: "You blame yourself too much, of course you are also a little unfair to Jiang Tengjun, forget it, these are all over." What are your thoughts on the Wuhan war? ”

This is what Netmura Ningji really wanted to ask, and Ligao thought about it and asked: "Does the general know about the situation of Mongolian dance in North China?" ”

Wangcun showed a thoughtful look: "Although I have not been in China for a long time, I still have to understand the situation, and it is said that the Eighth Route Army is quite fierce in North China. However, the details are not clear, and please set up a high number of kings

After thinking about it, Li Gao said: "General, I have read the combat plan of the General Headquarters, and the biggest flaw of this plan is that the threat to the Eighth Route Army in North China is underestimated. At present, in the whole of North China, only a very small part of the area we actually occupy, there are only points and lines, and the lines are only along the railway, and the Yizhong Plain, which is known as the granary of North China, has all fallen under the control of the Eighth Route Army, and patrols of less than 20 people dare not leave the north. Ten kilometers away, the public security situation is so bad that it is difficult to describe. The defenders of Zhangjiakou were defeated for the second time, and General Wangbu transferred General Abe Norihide, hoping that he could turn the situation around, but I think there is little hope, because this is not a problem of tactics, but a problem of insufficient strength of the defenders. The current situation in North China is that the front line is overcrowded, and an average soldier in the rear has to take care of two square kilometers, and Taihang 1 traverses the entire North China, and the Eighth Route Army set up its nest in the mountains and frequently attacked the plains, and the imperial army is seriously short of food and cloth, all of which are related to this. ”

Okamura Ninji was secretly frightened, he did not expect that the situation in North China had deteriorated to such an extent, and the guerrilla zone thirty miles outside Beiping City was too shocking.

"Now that the domestic supply is getting smaller and smaller, the military department requires us to feed the war with war, but the granary in North China is in the hands of the Eighth Route Army. How do we execute the war to feed the war. Ligao sighed, as if he was very annoyed: "Several combat failures are because we are in a hurry, how can we forget the teachings that we bought with blood?" I heard that the situation in the country is not good, but the more this happens, the more we can't rush it. ”

Okamura sighed softly, thought about it and said slowly: "But as long as Wuhan is conquered, changes may occur within China, Chiang Kai-shek is likely to step down, and the new leader will be able to sign a peace agreement with us." ”

Ligao was secretly frightened, could it be that there were really people in China who wanted to surrender? It's impossible, Mr. won't allow it, with his influence in the three southwestern provinces, can't he control it, can't do this. The message must be notified sir.

"General, is this news true?" Ligao asked with a frown.

Okamura Ninji raised his chin slightly, and nodded at Takeo Imai and Kagesa Zhenaki, who were talking carefully: "They are engaged in this work." It is said that negotiators from the Chinese government have arrived in Shanghai.

"Have the negotiations come to fruition?" Ligao asked casually.

"I don't know, but they seem to be sure." Okamura Ninji looked not far away, Takeo Imai and Akira Kagesa under the green pine, these two looked very relaxed, but I don't know if they were really so relaxed.

After a while, the voice of Ligao's support came from his ears: "In a common saying in Zhina, I am afraid that the bamboo basket will be empty, and then it will be empty-handed." ”

Okamura Ninji turned his head to find that Tachitaka had quietly stepped forward and stood parallel to him, which was rare among the highly hierarchical Japanese troops. But Netmura Ningji still didn't care, on the contrary, he admired the other party's courage to break the routine and bad habits.

"Why?"

After hesitating, Ligao said again: "Since the start of the war, the empire has made countless mistakes in military strategy and political strategy, only Prime Minister Konoe's statement that he does not regard the Nationalist Government as his opponent is the most, and today's army in China is controlled by Chiang Kai-shek, without his support, how can the peace talks succeed?" Let Chiang Kai-shek step down, who can make Chiang Kai-shek step down? Wang Jingwei? He couldn't do it before, and he can't do it now.

Okamura Ningji turned his head and looked at Ligao Support with some surprise, with his understanding of China, Ligao Support's words were undoubtedly correct, and he was surprised that Ligao Support could come to such a conclusion and hit Wang Jingwei with one word.

Ligao's eyes were full of doubts, hesitation, and hesitation, and Wangcun Ningji once again felt the talent of this young man, and he said gently: "This is a matter of their intelligence department, we are soldiers and don't care about this, how about it, Ligaojun, would you like to come to the Eleventh Army as the deputy chief of staff?" ”

Ligao was taken aback, if he was a real Japanese, then Netmura Ningji's invitation was undoubtedly a shortcut to the rank of general, but unfortunately he was not, the chief of the operations section of the North China Front was his best

Business.

After hesitating for a while, Ligao said with a wry smile: "Thank you very much for the general's kindness." I really want to agree, but unfortunately I can't, I don't think General Nishio will agree either, the change of two section chiefs in the combat section in a short period of time will be a big blow to morale, and the Wuhan operation is about to begin, in this situation, General Nishio will never agree. ”

Okamura Ninji felt a little presumptuous at this time, indeed, in this situation, even if Litaka was willing, Nishio Shouzo would definitely not let go, he sighed slightly, and his gaze returned to Takeo Imai and Kagesa Zhenaki.

Kagesa Zhenzhao noticed these two glances. He turned his head to look at Okamura Ninji and Ligao Support Xiao Chong and smiled slightly, then turned his head and asked, "Who is that young man next to Wangmura-kun?" ”

Takeo Imai turned his head to look at it and replied nonchalantly, "Oh, that's Ligao supporting Nakasa, this young man is very good." ”

Hearing that it was Ligao's support, Kagezo Zhenzhao whispered: "It turned out to be him, no wonder Netmura-kun can be degraded to honor, this is the support of Ligao with that Nakajima Yasuken who is known as the Twin Star of the North China Dispatch Army." ”
