Chapter 326: A dilemma

The new style of military uniforms and badges can only be gradually implemented by Zhang Xuewu, and a large number of changes of clothing is very unrealistic in the war period when materials are in short supply, and Gao Zhihang's advice to Zhang Xuewu is to concentrate all the air forces, first of all, to carry out a thorough sweep of all the airfields deployed by the Kwantung Army in the northeast, so as to remove the huge threat of the warplanes of the Chinese army to our bombing cluster, and the second is to use sarin gas and incendiary bombs to carry out indiscriminate attacks on the garrisons of the 569 and 731 units of the Yue army. However, the location of Unit 569 is somewhat special, it is stationed in the urban area, so Gao Zhihang is worried that if he uses incendiary bombs to attack, it will cause civilian casualties, but if he uses conventional aerial bombs, he is afraid that it will not have any effect, so he is in a dilemma.

It is a particularly tricky problem for Gao Zhihang, but not for Zhang Xuewu, Zhang Xuewu, as a strategic decision-maker, he must turn all the materials, weapons, ammunition, equipment and military processing and production data, and even life into an intuitive data, and then deploy the final results of the enemy and our armies at the strategic level.

Zhang Xuewu solemnly signed his name on the combat order, which means that the aircraft group of the 10th Theater of Operations, which is on standby, will completely change the ground attack on the troops in the direction of Chaoyang and Zhangjiakou, and instead face the entire northeast occupied area to attack the aviation units of the Kwantung Army, and within three days with the full endurance of the 10th Theater, the fighters will attack the 731 unit in Harbin and the 569 unit in Qiqihar. If the virus is successfully produced and successfully released by the army, then the losses in Rehe, Chahar, and Suiyuan will not be a little bit in front of him, and this kind of loss is something that Zhang Xuewu cannot afford.

For the prisoners of the army who were captured in Baotou, especially the freshman of the mountain, Zhang Xuewu grasped the key point, that is, this freshman of the mountain created a precedent for the army not to surrender, before Zhang Xuewu ordered the execution of the prisoners of the army, but now it is the peak of the army, so the military tactical quality is higher, and most of the officers and soldiers who have been brainwashed by the spirit of bushido are very reluctant to surrender. And it is not difficult to see from the treatment of those who surrendered in Chinese history since ancient times, it is already very good to keep your surname, and it is simply a luxury to be trusted again, and you will be subjected to this shame engraved into your bone marrow for the rest of your life, which makes you often wonder why you didn't have the courage to shoot yourself at that time? This is also true if you are not born.

Therefore, Zhang Xuewu decided to use the freshman Yamashita to make an article, and through Zhang Xuewu's investigation and research, it was found that there was indeed a large number of diehards among the officers and soldiers, and these people were the backbone of the captured officers and soldiers, and they constantly organized hunger strikes and protests, so they tried to snatch the weapons of the guards, dig tunnels, etc., and tried every possible way to escape back, but the vast majority of the soldiers were very numb, and they didn't seem to have any hope for their lives, because Zhang Xuewu's cruelty was notoriously known. After the First Battle of Chengde, the roadside from Chengde to Chaoyang was full of the heads of the soldiers.

For himself, Zhang Xuewu is an out-and-out demon, an out-and-out big demon! It's a shadow crawling out of hell.

Zhang Xuewu decided to first separate out this group of diehards in the army, and carried out under the pretext that officers, non-commissioned officers, and soldiers were treated differently, and the diehards Zhang Xuewu did not dare to let them participate in labor and construction, even if it was the most dangerous coal digging, and he was worried that these crazy guys would sabotage, so they were all secretly executed, and the remaining good management was obedient and unassertive, and all of them were handed over to the management of the freshman under the mountain, and the mine was the place where they atoned for their crimes. Let them have the strength to work, many people don't understand this, in fact, Zhang Xuewu plans to use the preferential treatment effect of Yamashita and others to cultivate a group of Yue Annihilation, and also decided to release a group of hundreds of officers and soldiers who have been brainwashed by themselves if the battle situation is suitable.

Some of the planned release of a small number of prisoners of the army is intended to give a loud slap to the person who likes to spread rumors the most, Lao Tzu is not only very kind, but also very loving! Zhang Xuewu's purpose is to break the determination of the army to die in every battle, who wants to die if he can live? Zhang Xuewu didn't believe that he was really stupid to the point of tendon, and often the guys who were stupid to the point of tendon were actually the so-called remembering interest class.

Use the prisoners of war to enslave themselves, use the prisoners of war to manage the prisoners of war, give a group of prisoners of war relatively good treatment, and then let them become the remembered interest class in their own prisoner of war camps, and use all these prisoners of war in dangerous places such as mines and mines, and sell their lives for a few years, it is estimated that these little devils will be squeezed dry, and their ashes will be made into fertilizer, which can be described as extremely environmentally friendly. And let me suffer more, why not do it?

In fact, Zhang Xuewu is also facing a serious shortage of young and middle-aged labor, the national political axe, privately has begun to prevent patriotic young people from going to Rehe to join the army, most of the people who go to are intercepted and divided into other troops, in this regard, Zhang Xuewu also has no too effective methods, because any effective method, it means that the tenth theater from now on out of the national axe field force sequence, in the national anti-Japanese war united front has just been established, said that the aggressors are the most crazy, When the army was still in an offensive position in terms of overall strategy? Obviously, any act of sabotaging the united front is tantamount to betraying the country, and Chiang Kai-shek, who occupies the big name, must even join his sworn enemy [***] to join the front to resist the enemy, let alone Zhang Xuewu.

According to the previous military intelligence report, the air force reconnaissance unit found a large force of the Yue army on the way to Chaoyang, and the fighters who went to carry out the attack conducted an unusually fierce air battle with the flight units of the Kwantung Army escorting the escort, and the results were almost the same as those in the past. The BF-109K, the Saker Falcon, and other three types of fighters in the 10th Theater of Operations are equipped with too many fighters that exceed the 95, 96, and 97 attack planes and destroyers of the Japanese army.

Because Zhang Xuewu had previously purchased aero engines from Germany with a large amount of money through Zhou Ying, trained talents for reserves, and set up his own aviation school in the name of opening a private airline, the pilots of the 10th War Zone were so adequately equipped.

Compared with Zhang Xuewu's active response, at this moment, the commander of the Kwantung Army, Ueda Kenkichi, was like an old man suffering from Alzheimer's disease, sitting quietly in his office, the life and death of Hideki Tojo, chief of staff of the Kwantung Army, was uncertain, the entire tank division of the Kwantung Army was wiped out, and the commander of the division, Lieutenant General Ohara Tachie, was shattered, but the shameless Yamashita Daiichi bastard actually made more than 20,000 Imperial Army troops lay down their arms?

The surrender of the remnants of the 23rd Mechanized Division and the Chariot Division of the Yamashita Daichi can be said to be an absolute disgrace to the entire Great Emperor Empire, so many officers and soldiers actually put down their weapons, and the Great Emperor [***] people did not launch an attack on the enemy with the idea of all the loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor at the critical moment, and surrendered their weapons in shame?

Individual captures and surrenders Ueda Kenkichi knew that it was normal, but more than 20,000 officers and soldiers surrendered en masse? How can this be covered up? Kenkichi Ueda did not take into account the despair of the front-line officers and soldiers when they faced the rolling iron stream at that time, and thought that it was a shame to live, but it was rare that Commander Kenkichi Ueda lived for so long, and what he still remembered the most was his rank of marshal.

However, if Ueda Kenkichi had a little bit of self-knowledge, he should know that this battle was fought like this, I am afraid that the high-ranking officials of the Imperial Council of the base camp are studying the issue of his successor to Ueda Kenkichi, and attacked Chaoyang, Zhangjiakou, Chifeng, Chengde and other places with seemingly absolute superiority, and the attack was unsuccessful for a long time, and the intention was to encircle the point to send reinforcements, and as a result, the reinforcements from the tenth theater did come, and they came very quickly, but because of the relationship between the natural calcium deficiency of the people and the nation, they gnawed down, and as a result, the teeth fell all over the ground.

The two armored divisions each cooperate with a youth army integrated division, such a force is not able to gnaw on the Kwantung Army, Ueda Kenkichi has always thought that even if the Kwantung Army tank division can't deal with an armored division in the 10th theater, then it should always be okay to add a 23rd mechanized division, right?

While scolding Hideki Tojo for being a bastard, Kenkichi Ueda had no choice but to pin his hopes for the last fight on Shiro Ishii and Kazuo Morita, as well as Ninji Okamura! For the first two, Ueda Kenkichi has a greater element of luck, while the latter Okamura Ninji's command ability is still obvious to all.

Ueda Kenkichi also clearly knew that compared with his own old guys, Emperor Hirohito preferred the second of the three birds of the Baden-Baden League that created the Showa warlords, and was touted by his own people as a rare famous general in terms of command and combat! With the qualities of wisdom, insight, decisiveness, and strong will, he advocated the implementation of the air-ground joint breakthrough of the armored corps in the regular field operations of the army, and the speed of promotion was like that of a guy who made a weather shell!
