Chapter 500: Press Conference (3)

Umezu Yoshijiro believed that yesterday's press conference was a success, so that the people of the entire Manchurian country would no longer dare to resist the Imperial Army, and that the people of the Empire could rest assured that they would not have to attack the United Nations at any time and destroy their homeland.

Senior General Umezu Mijiro finished reading the latest telegram. The 25th Division and the 4th Division led by Hattori Kotaro completely recovered the Shangjiang area, and after thinking and judging the map repeatedly, Umezu Mijiro felt that the resistance forces in the Shangjiang area were about to be wiped out, and then they could concentrate the troops in the Shangjiang area to attack Sun Wu in the north, or march west to cooperate with Gu Shoufu to eliminate the other main force of the Anti-Japanese Alliance that was still resisting, and completely purify all the dangerous elements who rebelled against the empire in the entire area, so that the entire Sanjiang Plain would completely become the granary and coal depot of the Kwantung Army. A bridgehead for the war against the USSR. As long as the main forces of the Anti-Japanese Federation on these two roads are all wiped out, when the time comes, the 25th Division and the Fourth Division led by Hattori Kotaro and the troops of Binjiang Province led by Tani Shofu cooperate with the troops of the 10th Division led by Tada Jun of Longjiang Province to completely eliminate the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation active in North Manchuria, then the entire North Manchurian will return to the embrace of the empire.

In the second half of the next year, as long as the allies of the empire really told them that they were going to fight against the Soviet Union, the unsuspecting Soviets would definitely be caught off guard, and the Kwantung Army, which was ready to attack, would be able to attack in three directions. To avenge the humiliation of the Battle of Normenheim, and at the same time to get the resources needed for the empire.

On Umezu Mijiro's desk. In addition to the victorious reports from the front, there was also a map of the Soviet Far Eastern Military District. The map shows the Soviet Union's deployed troops, weapons and equipment, and resource areas, and it is obvious that the Japanese spies are still very capable, and they can get such detailed information in the well-defended Far Eastern Military District.

As for the press conference, it was only released in advance, and the only thing that made Umezu Mijiro a little puzzled now was that the three front-line armies had sent good news, and only the 10th Division had no news, except for the previous advance of the troops to the Dedu area. There was no news again, at first Umezu Mijiro didn't pay much attention, thinking that the 10th Division was fighting with the Anti-Japanese Union and had no effort, but now there has been no news for several days, and the headquarters has contacted the 10th Division many times without responding, and Umezu Mijiro has a slight bad premonition.

As soon as the bad premonition came, Umezu Mijiro felt that something might be wrong with the 10th Division, and the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't figure it out. So the chief of staff, Lieutenant General Iimura and Lieutenant General Muto Akira, were invited, and the two of them heard Umezu Mijiro's worries. After discussing the map for a long time, all three of them suspected that something might be wrong with the 10th Division, but they lacked intelligence support.

Umezu Mijiro asked Akira Muto, who was in charge of intelligence work, to immediately dispatch the intelligence personnel closest to Qiqihar to collect information, and the intelligence of the 10th Division may take some time. However, Nanman's report was quickly delivered, and Umezu Mijiro's face suddenly became gloomy when he saw it, and Major General Hamada Junosuke of the 123rd Wing of the 80th Independent Mixed Brigade sent a telegram saying that the troops had been attacked and harassed by a unit under the title of Changbai Mountain Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force. The unit was small in number, but the marksmanship was good. The soldiers could shatter as soon as they showed their heads. Hamada Junosuke dispatched the entire army in order to eliminate this difficult small force. As a result, it was ambushed by the anti-union forces led by Yang Jingyu, and after several hours of fierce fighting, more than 1,400 people from the 123rd Wing were broken, and Hamada Tonosuke led the remaining soldiers of less than 400 people to flee back to Baoning County, and now seek reinforcements.

After reading the report of Major General Hamada Shinosuke of the 123rd Wing of the 80th Independent Mixed Brigade, Umezu Mijiro's brows were furrowed, and the battle to encircle and suppress the main force of the Anti-United Nations was not over, Yang Jingyu of Nanman made trouble again, and the number was not small, Umezu Mijiro knew that if the Anti-United Nations active in the area of Changbai Mountain were not suppressed, then they were likely to become the next Meng Qingshan, especially before Meng Qingshan appeared, Yang Jingyu was one of the two major enemies of the empire, For this reason, Umezu Mijiro discussed with Chief of Staff Iimura and decided to send the 14th Infantry Brigade of the 13th Division, the 11th Infantry Brigade of the 11th Division, the 10th Infantry Brigade, the 12th Infantry Wing, and the 47th Infantry Wing, with 20,000 puppet troops to launch a big crusade against Yang Jingyu's troops.

The question about Yang Jingyu has just ended, and there is a problem in the southern province of Xing'an, a Mongolian tribe in Wangye Temple actually erected a banner of resistance against Japan, known as the independent cavalry regiment of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Army, because the leader of this army is said to be a small Mongolian prince, and his prestige is very high, as soon as he erected the flag, many people immediately joined, and repeatedly attacked the transport convoy of the empire, and even the twelfth garrison just sent by the headquarters was wiped off the map by this group of damned Chinese cavalry before they arrived at the place to exert their residual heat, There were also the railway lines of the empire that were blown up one after another, and the arsenal of one place was blown up.........

"Haha!" Umezu Mijiro laughed when he saw these telegrams sent by the Imperial Army attacking from all walks of life.

This made the chief of staff on the side, Iimura, very puzzled, so he asked, "Your Excellency the commander-in-chief, why are you laughing?" ”

"Iimura-kun, I think this is because the Anti-United Nations can't support it, so let the anti-United Nations troops from all walks of life attack the empire's transportation lines and cities." After speaking, he handed the telegram to the chief of staff on the side, Iimura.

After reading it, Iimura said in surprise: "Your Excellency Commander, I read that in these telegrams, except for Yang Jingyu of Nanman, who is an anti-coalition force, the rest are just a group of stragglers, and their actions are simply like sending them to death, I really don't understand what is going on in the heads of their group of people, is it because they know that Meng Qingshan was assassinated by us and retaliated." ”

"Iimura-kun, what you said is just one of them, I judge that the real purpose of this group of people is for us to transfer the troops on the front line back, so that the main force of the Anti-Japanese Federation can breathe, if our troops are the same as before, maybe we must transfer back troops from the front line in order to maintain the peace of Manchukuo, but unfortunately, we have just expanded the strength of nearly two divisions this time, and their small group of armed forces can just serve as a stepping stone for our recruits, so let this group of ignorant people contribute to the future of the Kwantung Army and the future of Manchukuo!"

"Your Excellency Commander, I understand what you mean, why don't we send the 27th Division that has just been formed to send troops to suppress the bandits."

"Yo Xi! This will also test the results of the three months of training of these new recruits, but I hope that they will be able to wipe out the anti-Japanese forces in these counties before we completely exterminate the North Manchurian Anti-Japanese Alliance. ”

"Hello! I'll go. (To be continued.) )
