"Hay!" Tokugawa did not dare to disobey Hirohito's will, so he hurriedly bowed his head and respectfully responded, and immediately took the order to retreat.

…………………………………… In Hiroshima, accompanied by Yali, Jo Anbang stood on the roof of a building and looked down on the nearly ruined city of Hiroshima, which had been a thriving coastal city two days ago, but now in ruins.

On the ruins of some houses, green smoke rises from time to time, and the streets are full of corpses of soldiers and civilians who have no one to restrain them, and the whole city is as miserable as a Shura hell.

Beyond the tragic situation in front of him, Qiao Anbang did not have the slightest sympathy and pity, and he did not order anyone to count how many people died in this day and night.

However, he knew that the number of casualties among the soldiers and civilians was far inferior to that of the Nanjing Massacre, because the Nanjing Massacre had tens of thousands of soldiers and carried out a brutal and bloody massacre for more than a week.

Obviously, it is impossible for the number of people slaughtered by the Zhong [***] team, which numbered only more than 800 people, in one day and one night, at least this number of words is far less than the number of people killed in China.

Although the 800 special combat members were red-eyed, they were not as cruel as the Yue himself, and almost all the soldiers and civilians who died in their hands were killed with one shot, just like a series of inhumane massacres such as burying alive, beheading, and assassinating by devils, and the [***] team did not do it.

Therefore, Qiao Anbang did not feel the slightest guilt, compared to the cruelty of the army, his own troops were already merciful.

"Master, where should we go next, I just overheard the message between the Combined Fleet Headquarters and the Imperial Palace in Tokyo!" Yali seemed to ignore everything in front of her and asked Joan Bangdao.

"Oh? What was the content of their message? Qiao Anbang turned his head and asked curiously.

"Because Prime Minister Konoe Fumima and a member of the cabinet died in the attack of our army, all the officers and men of the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy decided to suspend the battle of Qingdao that was going on to reinforce and began to turn around and return home!" Yali replied.

"Oh, so the navy won't be in the battle to reinforce Qingdao?" Qiao Anbang said happily.

"Yes!" Yali nodded.

"Then how did Emperor Hirohito, the old devil, reply?" Jo Anbang asked.

"Order the naval fleet to immediately march towards the Hiroshima Military Port, recover Hiroshima, and destroy us!" Yali replied.

"Very good, it seems that the army has been completely mobilized by us, and the strategic purpose of our trip has been achieved! Now I'm afraid the whole country has fallen into a panic! Qiao Anbang said excitedly.

"Then are we going back to China?" Yali asked tentatively.

"No, if we go back now, then the base camp will soon successfully complete the change of power and reorganization, which is still extremely unfavorable to us, and we have only achieved the strategic goal of containing and mobilizing the army, and the strategic goal of destroying its war potential is far from being achieved!" Qiao Anbang shook his head.

"So what do we do next? Isn't it time to evacuate Hiroshima? Yali asked cautiously.

"Don't be busy evacuating, since the airborne, the soldiers haven't closed their eyes for two days and two nights, let them have a good rest!" Qiao Anbang said and looked into the distance, and said, "Yali, let's send a telegram to the country immediately, and send the news of their capture of Hiroshima back to China!" I believe that it can give me great encouragement to the soldiers and civilians of the Anti-Japanese War, and at the same time, it can also deal a great blow to the army! ”

"Yes!" Yari nodded in response.

………………………… This is indeed the case, when Yali led Qiao Anbang to capture Hiroshima, an important military center in the country, it was tantamount to dropping another bombshell of news on the country.

This time, not only did I dare not believe it, but even the domestic military and civilians couldn't believe it, this is true, once upon a time, the Chinese [***] team was able to capture the strategic point of the heavy defense of the local army, and it was captured with 800 people?

However, when Qiao Anbang ordered Yali to send back the photo of the blue sky and white flag flying at the head of Hiroshima Castle, everyone believed it, and not only was it joyful, but countless hot-blooded young people flocked to the base of the Tiger Ben Army in spite of the national political axe.

They all asked to join the army, and asked to follow Qiao Anbang to parachute into the local area and participate in the war!

In particular, the Hiroshima army on the Qingdao front line was fighting fiercely with the Tiger Army, and when they saw the flag of the Chinese National Revolutionary Army fluttering in their hometown, tens of thousands of devil soldiers raised their heads to the sky and roared, crying and saying that this was not true.

They couldn't believe or imagine that the rear that they had always regarded as the safest, their own country, could be attacked by the [***] team, although the news of the previous attack on Tokyo and the captivity of the five princesses was tightly sealed by the high-level of the invasion of China.

But this time, because the Chinese Air Force was actually Yali's aircraft, a large number of photos of Hiroshima were airdropped on the front line of the Yue army, which made the hearts of the Yue army instantly chaotic, and it was obviously impossible for the top level of the Yue army to block the news.

As I said before, the Yue army has always regarded their homeland as an absolutely safe area, and in their bones, they never thought that their homeland would be attacked, especially the Chinese army that was defeated by them before.

Therefore, in the face of this bloody reality, many devil officers could not accept this news, and most of them had no intention of fighting again.

Coupled with the delay in the arrival of naval reinforcements, the Jiaozhou defense line that the army had worked so hard to build was finally broken through by the Tiger Ben Army on the evening of the second day after the fall of Hiroshima.

Yoshio Shinozuka was forced to lead the remnants to retreat to Qingdao, Jiaozhou was lost, Qingdao was no longer in danger to defend, and the sea-based air force of the 3rd and 5th fleets of the Navy was almost completely lost in the air battle with the Tiger Army Flying Regiment, so that the air supremacy completely fell into the hands of the Chinese Air Force.

Therefore, the main ships of the naval fleet were forced to sail away from Jiaozhou Bay, and at this point, it was only a matter of time before Qingdao was lost.

………………………… Beiping, the North China Front Army Headquarters.

The commander, Admiral Sugiyama Moto, was angrily scolding the ancestors of the senior admirals of the eighteenth generation, and the chief of staff next to him, Yamashita Fufumi, helplessly persuaded: "Your Excellency, it is too late to say anything, let's quickly evacuate the tens of thousands of imperial troops trapped in Qingdao, and we can't let them resist anymore, because such resistance is meaningless!" ”

Sugiyama Yuan calmed down, indeed, the battle of Qingdao has been completely unnecessary, because the Jiaozhou defense line has been lost, Qingdao has no danger to defend, and the most important thing is that the main force of the naval fleet returns halfway, resulting in air supremacy falling into the hands of the Chinese Air Force.

Without air supremacy, the naval fleet is no longer able to provide powerful naval artillery fire support for the ground forces, and in such a grim situation, tens of thousands of land forces alone will be unable to resist the opponent of the well-equipped Tiger Army, which has strong firepower and air supremacy.

Therefore, the only wise choice is to evacuate the tens of thousands of troops trapped in Qingdao as much as possible in order to save these tens of thousands of fresh troops!

"Yamashita-kun, immediately send a telegram to Admiral Yoshio Shinozuka, ordering him to prepare for retreat, and at the same time request the 5th, 3rd, and 4th fleets of the Navy to take advantage of the night to fully transport the imperial army to evacuate Qingdao!" Sugiyama Mototo sighed and commanded helplessly.

"Hay!" Yamashita Fengwen had no choice but to bow his head and answer, and then he was ordered to turn around and leave.

…………………………………………………… Hiroshima, after a day's rest, Joan Bang had already conveyed the order to evacuate to the companies.

When the troops were being assembled, Yali rushed over and reported to Qiao Anbang: "General seat, good news, our army has broken through the Jiaozhou front line of the army last night, and the air force has also obtained air supremacy, and Qingdao has been surrounded on three sides!" ”

"Good!" Qiao Anbang was very happy, but then he said: "Send a telegram to Deputy Commander-in-Chief Li, asking him to immediately storm Qingdao overnight, not to give the devils a chance to breathe, let alone give them a chance to evacuate calmly!" ”

"Yes!" Yali answered, turned and led the way away.

After Yali left, Liang Yilu stepped forward and asked, "Boss, where should we go next?" ”

"Yes, Chief, give the order quickly, where should we go next?" Gao Junior, who had already tasted the sweetness of such an attack battle, asked one after another.

"Osaka!" Qiao Anbang blurted out in reply.

……………………………………………… After receiving Qiao Anbang's order, Li Pinxian immediately recruited the commanders of several main divisions of the Huben Army, and after discussion, he quickly decided on the battle plan for the overnight onslaught on Qingdao.

However, the main attacking force was replaced by the 48th Army and the 31st Army of the original 11th Group Army, because the 1st and 3rd Divisions of the Huben Army suffered considerable losses in the previous Jiaozhou Siege, and the officers and men of the troops were extremely tired.

Therefore, Xiao Zhang Fei, Zhang Yichun and others took the initiative to invite Ying to fight, and went to the front line to command the troops to storm Qingdao overnight.

In order to cover the attack of the 48th and 31st armies, a powerful artillery group composed of artillery regiments directly under several divisions of the Huben Army launched a fierce artillery attack on the Qingdao defense line of the Yue Army at night.

That night, the entire outskirts of Qingdao turned into a sea of fire, the sky-high flames dispelled the night, and before the shelling was over, countless flares were lifted into the air one after another, illuminating the night as if it were day.

Under the cover of the light of the flares, the armored brigade of the Huben Army, under the leadership of the brigade commander Zhang Xudong, began to cover the infantry of the 48th and 31st armies and launched an overwhelming attack on the defense line of the army.

Due to the sudden attack of the [***] team, the Yue army, which was already ready to retreat, was very passively forced to return fire, and the battle on the outskirts was fiercely carried out.

The expatriates and part of the army in Qingdao were nervously evacuating, and the whole Qingdao became a pot of porridge.

In particular, the port was crowded with soldiers and expatriates, all of whom were rushing to board the ship in an attempt to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.
