Chapter 146: Sowing Discord
[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 146: Sowing discord
The news of the defeat of the 1st Cavalry Brigade in Qiulin River has been transmitted back to Zhangjiakou, and Lieutenant General Chun of the harem is in such an angry mood! The joy of being promoted to the commander of the Mongolian garrison was suddenly washed away without a trace, and overnight it was as if someone had dug up his family's ancestral grave, smashing more than a dozen teacups in an hour, and even executing an officer who was not doing well in anger.
Even so, he still can't get rid of the anger in his heart. Thinking about it, I obviously wanted to teach others a lesson, but in the end, I lost my wife and broke my soldiers, this kind of slap in the face is not something ordinary people can bear.
Although it was late at night, the headquarters was still brightly lit, and all the officers had not rested and were completely on standby.
In this harem Chun's office, Harem Chun, the chief of staff of the Mongolian army, Bai Yinshi, the second Daisa, and the commander of the 16th Division, Lieutenant General Nakajima Imakago, knelt in front of a military map and discussed something.
"Nakajima-kun, this time your 16th Division can be regarded as having fought with Ma Zheng's subordinates, tell me how you feel?" Harem Jun asked in a deep voice.
"Commander, to be honest, I was surprised! Before I came, I thought that the Mongolian army had deliberately exaggerated the combat effectiveness of this enemy army, and of course the purpose was to reduce the punishment. But after the previous battles, I found that the enemy army in front of me was indeed an elite. "Nakajima is now going to me.
"Keep talking!" Harem Jundao.
"First of all, in terms of weapons and equipment, the troops in front of us are all using imperial weapons, including Type 38 rifles, crooked light machine guns, Type 92 heavy machine guns, and even Type 92 infantry guns and mortars, which are not much worse than the Imperial Army in terms of firepower configuration, which is extremely rare in the entire China!"
"Secondly, in terms of the establishment of this unit, according to the information we have gathered, it was a regiment under the command of Ma Zheng who stopped our unit at Fort Ferry. However, at that time, judging from the enemy's strength and firepower allocation, such a regiment was at least equivalent to two regiments of other units in China, and was not even weaker than one of our wings, so the establishment of this army seemed to be intended to be close to the imperial army! ”
"Finally, there is the quality of the soldiers in this unit. Truth be told, surprisingly high. According to the information we have received, the main sources of troops of Ma Zheng's troops are the bandits and the Imperial Allied Army. It stands to reason that the quality of the soldiers of such an army will not be high, but the facts have proved that we have all guessed wrong, the enemy's quality is very high, the order and prohibition are strictly disciplined, and the battle is quite orderly, and the ninth wing of our department has not been able to break through the enemy's defense line for three hours of fierce fighting, and its own casualties are quite small, which shows how strong the combat effectiveness of this enemy army is! Nakajima said in a deep voice.
"Yo Xi, Nakajima-kun's analysis is very detailed and in place, worthy of being a battle-hardened general of the empire! It is a great honor to have Your Excellency join the Mongolian Army! Harem Jun said loudly.
"Your Excellency the Commander has won the award!" Nakajima said modestly.
At this time, the new chief of staff of the Mongolian army, Bai Yinshiji Dazuo, opened his mouth and said: "Your Excellency, with all due respect, Ma Zheng's headquarters has continuously inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese Imperial Army, resulting in heavy losses for our troops stationed in Mongolia, which shows that the strength of Ma Zheng's headquarters has far exceeded the estimate of the front army. In this way, a simple military encirclement and suppression can no longer be effective in a short period of time, so it is necessary to find a solution once and for all. ”
"Once and for all?"
"Yes, if it was an accident that the Sakai Brigade suffered a loss at the hands of Ma Zheng, then the raid on Zhangjiakou by Ma Zheng's troops some time ago cannot be regarded as an accident in any respect. In addition, this time Ma Zheng only sent a part of the troops to annihilate the entire 1st Cavalry Brigade in the Qiulin River, if anyone at this time thought that this was just an accident, then it can only be said that the person's head was definitely not filled with brains, but a mixture of water surface - paste. "Bai Yinzhongji was picked up by Harem Chun, so he has always been regarded as a confidant by Harem Chun, so he doesn't have so many scruples when he speaks.
"What you say makes a lot of sense, but if even a military strike can't solve Ma Zheng's army once and for all, then what else can be done to completely destroy this hateful army?" Harem Jun immediately asked.
Bai Yin Chongji immediately said: "Now the development of Ma Zheng's department has far exceeded the expectations of the empire, but after thinking about it, in fact, Ma Zheng is not only not tolerated by the Japanese Imperial Army now, but there are more people in China who do not want this army to continue to grow, whether it is the leader of the Zhina Jiang or the Yan Du in the Second War Zone." ”
"Nani?"
"Your Excellency, Commander, don't forget that Ma Zheng's troops are not Jiang's direct troops, and they are not even subordinate to any local warlords, but the troops of Yan'an GD. The performance of the government army on the battlefield is also well known, although the battle is also very heroic, but the record is mediocre. Now Ma Zheng's subordinates are frequently creating military miracles, and the people of China are certainly vying for applause, but to a certain extent, they are not satirizing Chiang's government army! Bai Yin Zhong Er analyzed.
"Yo Xi, keep talking!" Harem Jundao.
Therefore, he suggested that the front army should change its strategy and postpone the continuation of the offensive against the government army in China, so as to give the Chiang government a chance to breathe. Anyway, it is impossible for the empire to completely defeat the government of China in a short period of time, so it is better to give the Chiang government a chance to breathe. At that time, with the leader of the branch Jiang as a person, even if the empire does not sow discord, he will restrict the development of Ma Zheng's department, and even directly deprive Ma Zheng of his military power. ”
Then Shigeji Baiyin continued: "A soldier is still a soldier without a general, as long as he has a weapon in hand, he can still kill the enemy. But if a general does not have soldiers, then he cannot be called a general. Ma Zheng, who had lost his military power, was just a lamb to the slaughter, and he did not pose any threat to the Imperial Japanese Army at all, and with the ability of the empire's omnipresent intelligence agency, he could kill him at any time. ”
After listening to Bai Yin's analysis, Harem Chun had a feeling of being stunned, and immediately said: "Yo Xi! But the Shina government is not stupid, how can they act according to our ideas? What's more, Ma Zheng's subordinates rely on Yan'an behind them, and they will not let Ma Zheng lose the military power in his hands! ”
"That's where we need to cooperate!" Silver weighs two.
"Cooperation?"
"Yes, cooperate! We have to make the government aware of how strong Ma Zheng's troops have become, such as their troops, their configuration, and so on. As long as the government of China knows this, then they will already realize the threat of Ma Zheng's department, and everything will fall into place at that time! "Silver weighs two.
"But we don't know these things, how to cooperate?" Harem Jundao.
"Your Excellency, it doesn't matter if we don't know, anyway, the Chiang government doesn't know. As long as we use the media and newspapers to publicize it, even if we say that Ma Zheng has 100,000 elite soldiers now, we will be convinced! ”
"You mean sow discord?"
"Yes, it's sowing discord! Just taking the opportunity of the annihilation of the 1st Brigade, we can use this incident to make a splendid article for the government of China! "Silver weighs two.
"Yo Xi, this matter will be handed over to your staff!" Harem Jundao.
"Hay!"
