[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 855: Yoshio Shinozuka (Ask for subscription!) , ask for a monthly pass, ask for everything! ）

Sure enough, before the thoughts in Eiichi Hirahara's head flashed, someone couldn't stand it anymore and began to refute Naojiro Amaya's arrogant remarks. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Coming forward to refute Naojiro Amaya, Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka, commander of the First Army stationed in Shanxi, Yoshio Shinozuka fought with Ma Zheng's troops no less than 20 times, from the Yangtze River valley to the Yellow River valley, and fought a small half of China, so no one has a better understanding of the combat effectiveness of Ma Zheng's troops than him. In addition, Yoshio Shinozuka is now serving as the First Army stationed in Shanxi, and Shanxi is the most "rampant" place for the activities of the Eighth Route Army, so how big the threat of the Eighth Route Army is, I am afraid that no one has more say than Yoshio Shinozuka, the commander of the First Army.

"Tiangu-kun, please pay attention to your words and deeds, your statement is extremely irresponsible, I admit that the performance of the entire front army was really bad some time ago, but it is not what you imagined, our front army headquarters mobilized almost all the forces that can be used to launch an attack on the Shina troops in the Suicha area, it is not a whim."

Then Yoshio Shinozuka continued: "The reason why we suffered an unprecedented fiasco is entirely because we underestimated the strength of Ma Zheng's department too much. Coupled with other strategic mistakes, it led to the subsequent disaster. But this was not a mere tactical mistake, but a mistake in the overall strategic layout of our entire Imperial Japanese Army and a serious lack of understanding of our enemy. This further illustrates how deeply hidden and strong Ma Zheng and the troops under his leadership are. ”

The reason why Yoshio Shinozuka stood up and spoke at this time was that, on the one hand, he was a little unaccustomed to Naojiro Amaya's arrogant shouting, and on the other hand, he was aggrieved by Tada Jun, who had just been forced to commit suicide.

From the beginning of Yoshio Shinozuka leading the 10th Division to North China, the three commanders, including Terauchi Shouichi, Binshan Moto, and Tada Jun, appreciated him and the entire 10th Division, and he was able to serve as the commander of the First Army in Shanxi thanks to the recommendation of Tada Jun and General Umezu Mijiro.

Throwing in a peach in return, so Yoshio Shinozuka was very disgusted by such an idiotic statement by Naojiro Amaya, and this kind of remark was an insult to the heroic souls of the more than 100,000 imperial troops who dedicated themselves to Saibei for His Majesty the Emperor.

Then Yoshio Shinozuka eased the slightly annoyed emotions just now, and then said again: "Gentlemen, I, Yoshio Shinozuka, as the commander of the First Army of the Imperial Japanese Army in Shanxi, warn everyone that no one should underestimate that General Shina, he is far more terrifying than we imagined. In the First World War in North China, he shocked the entire imperial government and the opposition, if we treat this guy's wise troops as an ordinary Eighth Route Army, he will definitely shock the world when the next big war comes, so we must not be in a hurry to deal with such an enemy, we must think long-term. ”

"Yaga, Shinozuka, isn't it that bullshit Ma Zheng from China who scared you, or is it to make excuses for your cowardice, you will raise the general of China so much, you must know that the base camp has launched an investigation into the cause of the last fiasco, and the results of the investigation have been announced, and the result is that the defeat some time ago was not due to the lack of combat effectiveness of the Imperial Japanese Army, but due to the mistake of the old thing Tada Jun in strategic layout, you should know this better than me!"

Then Naojiro Amaya sneered again: "But I don't care about you, anyway, Tada Jun has been ordered by the military department to commit suicide and apologize, and I don't need to worry about anything with a dead man." But I want to remind Shinozuka-kun that you are a general, one of the most elite troops in the battle sequence of my North China Dispatch Army, so to regain the lost territory, then your first army must have full confidence, otherwise it will not be easy to regain the lost territory. ”

Although Naojiro Amaya is still only a division commander, because of the relationship between his family and his own extreme appreciation from the base camp, he is not afraid of Yoshio Shinozuka, so he directly refutes Yoshio Shinozuka.

Yoshio Shinozuka said in a deep voice: "Of course, what Tiangu-kun said just now has a certain amount of truth, but he doesn't really understand the situation of Ma Zheng's department, let alone fight with Ma Zheng's department, so his understanding of Ma Zheng's department is not comprehensive. There is no doubt about the horror of the Suicha Military Region in China, and I do not need to repeat this point, so I implore Your Excellency the Commander to pay attention to the threat posed by Ma Zheng's headquarters and the entire Eighth Route Army of China. ”

"In other places, the Chiang government in China is indeed the biggest threat to the imperial army, but here the government in China is not the greatest. In northern China, the strength of the Chiang government can only be regarded as third-rate, except for the Jin Sui army, which has been sitting in Shanxi and most of the Sui Yuan Yan Xishan, even the strength of the Eighth Route Army is now much stronger than that of the Chiang government. Therefore, he believed that in the entire North China region, the Eighth Route Army was the greatest threat to our Imperial Japanese Army, and it must be taken seriously. ”

Okamura Ninji is one of the few wise generals in the army, and he is a senior commander with high hopes in the base camp, so Okamura Ninji's ability is still undoubted, otherwise he would not be able to achieve such a high position. So he knows all these things that Yoshio Shinozuka said, but he is not as organized as Yoshio Shinozuka said.

After Yoshio Shinozuka said this, Okamura Ningji himself felt a little bottomless, after all, the previous North China Front Army was not muddy, and its strength was not much weaker than the current North China Front Army. The previous two commanders of the North China Front Army were both young and powerful generals, and they were well-known veterans in the army, especially General Terauchi Shouichi, who was a descendant of the righteous old-timers in Terauchi, and his combat command ability was much stronger than him.

However, such an army was forced to a dead end in a short period of time by the general surnamed Ma in China, and if it were not for his efforts to stabilize the situation during this time, the interests of the empire in North China would have been more seriously threatened.

And even if he barely gained a firm foothold in Saibei during this time, Zhangjiakou, Wanquan, Xuanhua and other counties and cities are still firmly controlled by Ma Zheng's department, among which Zhangjiakou is the northern gateway of Beiping, and the fall of a provincial capital city has seriously threatened the rule of the front army and even the entire empire in North China. It can be seen that the horror of Ma Zheng's department can be imagined.

Moreover, compared to the bombastic Naojiro Amaya, Okamura Ninji still believes in the famous Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka.

And Okamura Ninji knew better that now that the war had been going on to the point where it was now, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese defenders had increased significantly, while on the contrary, the fighting of the Imperial Japanese Army was declining.

You must know that from May 1933 after the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War to 1937 before the "77" Incident, the strength of the Imperial Japanese Army stationed in Guannai was only more than 6,000 (the combat unit was the Chinese Garrison Infantry Brigade), and the troops stationed in Shanghai were only more than 5,000 people of the Shanghai Special Marine Corps of the 3rd Fleet of the Navy. But even with such a small number of troops, the entire Chinese government can still be brought to its knees.

After the outbreak of the "77" Incident, up to now, there have been 45 infantry divisions and 15 independent mixed brigades in the entire North China region, and the garrison in the entire North China region exceeded 400,000 at the peak. But in this way, they were still defeated by the Chinese army, and even the commander of the front army had to commit suicide, and the major general and lieutenant general killed and captured countless prisoners, which is enough to prove that the combat effectiveness of the Chinese defenders has increased to a point where people can stand sideways.

"General Shinozuka, then how do you think we should deal with the Chinese troops, focusing on the Ma Zheng division you mentioned." Okamura Ninji asked loudly.

Yoshio Shinozuka thought for a while and said: "Report to Your Excellency Commander, if you want to deal with the Chinese troops, you must understand their fighting methods and the fundamentals of survival. Only when we fully understand the enemy we are facing can we find a way to solve it. ”

"Oh, what do you say?" Okamura Ninji immediately asked. (To be continued.) )
