The matter of Taiyuan is not difficult to do, and it will be lost to Yan'an. Yan Baichuan is an old treacherous figure, but in his heart, since the Xinhai Revolution in the past 30 years, Shanxi has been "relatively peaceful in society and has developed in production" under his rule. In particular, compared with other warlords, Yan Laoxi has a strong concept of hometown, although he advocates the golden mean and pursues the "three no-two principles", that is, "do not join the party, do not ask about provincial affairs, do not use troops for personal rights, obey the orders of the central government, and protect local public order." Later, he summed it up as "protecting the territory and securing the people", and demanded that "we should liaise with our neighboring provinces so that we will not be troubled, or that our neighbors will be happy and cooperative, and then use it for our own use, and defend against insults on our behalf."

To put it bluntly, it is you who beat you, whoever is the president and whoever is in charge, I will support whomever I want. Shanxi does not participate in warlord melee battles, stuffy wars. We should promote the advantages and eliminate the disadvantages internally, develop the economy, and secretly expand the army externally. But no matter what, Yan Laoxi's 30 years of rule in Shanxi, the development of people's morality, and the opening of people's wisdom, made Shanxi relatively stable compared with other provinces in China.

During the Anti-Japanese War, the Jin Sui Army was defeated by half of the division of Sakagaki Seishiro, and the Japanese army opened the Zhengtai Road and captured Taiyuan. If these warlords in China are the bigwigs, only the king of Shanxi has maintained a relatively good relationship with the Eighth Route Army.

Since it has been decided to meddle in Chinese affairs and expel the old forces of other countries in China, if Yan'an can win over the Jin Sui army, it will be a good strategy to strengthen itself and dismantle the chairman's right-hand man.

Ordered Wang Yizhe to suspend his actions against Shanxi, but to maintain a certain amount of coercion. The boss of the Eighth Route Army, who surrendered in Beiping, contacted Yan Laoxi, "Your unit and Chen Shukang's troops have approached and deterred the Kwantung Army from Chifeng and Shanhaiguan, and don't act rashly until clear information is transmitted." ”

After signing the telegram, His Majesty stood up and personally poured a glass of red wine for Jiang Yunzhi, who had just flown back to Chang'an, which made Commander Jiang a little flattered, and just wanted to stand up, but His Majesty raised his hand and motioned to sit down.

"Yun Zhi, you have made a great contribution this time. Capturing Tokyo and forcing the Japanese to surrender is enough to add a star to yourself. However, the war is not over yet, and the General Staff is assessing the possibility of the outbreak of war in Siberia and the Pacific. ”

Jiang Yunzhi pursed his lips, knowing that His Majesty's star was not easy to bring, but "We like it!" ”

The general died immediately, and the strong man died in the middle. Although it is a little unlucky, but isn't it the fate of the generals in ancient times to shroud the body of the horse leather and die in the border field? This time in Japan, Jiang Yunzhi has already liked the kind of atmospheric pride with more than 100,000 armor and tens of millions of horses. Compared with it, whether to add a star on the shoulder or not, it really doesn't look in the eyes of Commander Jiang.

On May 4, Lieutenant General Wang Yizhe, commander-in-chief of the Allied forces in the China Theater, issued another ultimatum, ordering the Japanese Kwantung Army in Northeast China to immediately lay down its arms, stop confrontation, and surrender unconditionally, but there was no response.

On May 5, a mutiny broke out at the Kwantung Army Headquarters in Changchun, and the officers of the Shaozhuang faction, led by senior staff officer Masashi Terada, killed the commander of the Kwantung Army, General Umezu Mijiro, and declared that they would fight the Allies to the end and would never surrender. This statement was supported by a large number of Kwantung officers and soldiers, and Masao Terada, who became the temporary commander of the Kwantung Army, ordered the Japanese troops on the Shanhaiguan line to launch an attack on the Allied forces on their own initiative.

Wang Yizhe and Chen Shukang were pleasantly surprised by this news, and they could finally claim to be the strongest Kwantung Army in Japan. This news made Tokyo's Ishihara Waner and other five generals heartbroken, and scolded Masatao Terada for misleading the country and the people.

Zhong Yi, who was studying the list of titles with military bigwigs such as Erye, Jiang Yunzhi, and Hans in Weiqing Pavilion, was also happy after receiving Wang Yizhe's telegram, and laughed so much that the others were a little hairy, "Your Majesty, why are you so happy?" Could it be that the eldest princess was born? ”

"Give birth to a P, if I really want Lao Tzu to have a son, will I still be here with you? The Manchurian mutiny, Umezu Mijiro was killed by the rebels, and Masao Terada finally jumped out. ”

It's no wonder, a few bigwigs have long been used to His Majesty's occasional madness, but ...... This news is indeed worth being happy about, Ye Zhiqiu and Jiang Yunzhi are also smiling, and Hans even stood up and turned around to ask Vivian for wine, which must be celebrated with a drink. However, Ye Weixun Meiyu was a little worried: "The war has started again, and the people in the northeast have suffered!" ”

The words of the deputy chief of staff instantly calmed everyone down in ecstasy, and His Majesty pinched his nose, "Xing, the people suffer, death, the people suffer!" Deputy Chief Ye is right, the people in Northeast China have been bullied by the Japanese for ten years, and some children can only speak Japanese but do not know their mother tongue......"

Several people were speechless, it is true, in order to consolidate its position in order to rule the Northeast for a long time, Japan not only set up a puppet emperor, but also implemented a series of policies to fool the people in the Northeast. Putting aside the fact that it invaded other countries, built the so-called "national defense line," and plundered the resources of Northeast China, he beautified his own evil deeds, and avoided talking about the burning, killing, and looting of the Kwantung Army in Northeast China, the criminal 731 bacteriological unit and other war crimes, the suffering of laborers in Northeast China and other places under bayonets and leather whips, and the suffering of the people in Northeast China who had been exiled and enslaved for 10 years.

"The ...... in the Northeast The people are bitter enough! ”

Hans put down the bottle and whispered. The others looked sideways, Hans was a little embarrassed, and smiled, "What? I'm also a sympathetic drop! ”

"Good!" His Majesty praised the case, "Even General Hans can empathize with the suffering of the people in the Northeast, we should really do something!" Zhiqiu, in the name of the General Staff Officer, telegraphed Wang Yizhe and Chen Shukang not to fight with the Kwantung Army in the northeast and harm the people. Find an opportunity to fight a decisive battle, and strive for a battle in the Northeast! ”

The 77th Armored Army, the 1st Guards Division, the 3rd Guards Division, the 101st Air Cavalry Division, the strongest armored units and army aviation units in the Han Army gathered at Shanhaiguan.

After receiving the order from the General Staff Headquarters, Wang Yizhe and Chen Shukang convened the high-level commanders of the two major group armies and held a meeting at the Fengtai camp to formulate a plan for the operation out of the customs. The Northern Group Army set out from Chengde, passed through Chifeng and Tongliao, and then went south to Zhangwu and Faku to sweep northern Liaobei and prevent the Japanese army from jumping over the wall in a hurry and escaping into the grassland when the war was unfavorable, causing disaster to northern China like grassland horse thieves. The Southern Army concentrated all the armored forces on the Chinese battlefield and forced the Japanese army to fight a decisive battle near Shanhaiguan.

"Since the Manchurians defeated the royal army in a war and laid the foundation for ruling the Central Plains for two hundred years, then now we will settle the customs outside the border in one battle and return the land of Kanto to the eternal light!" Wang Yizhe's summary in the Fengtai camp is quite heroic, but if you study it carefully, you can't afford to scrutinize, and Guanwai is the birthplace of the Manchus.

But at this time, how can anyone still close this, the Kwantung Army is from the bottom to the bottom, it is nothing more than those young officers who are arrogant, always think that the Kwantung Army is the first in the world, the Battle of Nomenkan, and Lao Maozi's armored cluster has not been able to teach them enough lessons, then, let the Han Army end the undefeated myth made up by the Kwantung Army!

Wang Yizhe nominated Yu Xuezhong, chief of staff of the Southern Group Army, to be the commander-in-chief of the Shanhaiguan Campaign, but of course no one objected. In addition to defeating the last resistance of Japan, the Battle of Deguan was not without the intention of letting these former Northeast Army heroes return to their hometowns, otherwise, His Majesty would not have let Wang Yizhe, who was slightly less prestigious, serve as the commander-in-chief of the Allied forces in the Chinese battlefield.

In the Shanhaiguan battlefield, although the Allied forces were powerful, the Japanese army was not without the strength to fight. Even when the battlefield was in full swing in the Guannai battlefield, the Kwantung Army still maintained a large number of first-class divisions (number 20) outside the Guan, and the only three tank divisions of the Japanese army, except for the third division, which was annihilated by the 1st Guards Division during the Battle of Changsha, the other two divisions were all deployed in the northeast. Before, it was because it was necessary to guard against the powerful combat power of the Red Army in the Far East of the Soviet Union, and at this time, there was no need to worry about the ideas of Soviet Russia.

Masao Terada commanded nearly one million Kwantung Army with the rank of Osa, which can be called a strange thing in the history of the world's military, but in the Japanese, a nation where deformed psychology is prevalent, it is not strange to see this strange thing, the imperial family also specializes in marriage between close relatives, seven of the ten princes are stupid, eight are bad, and nine are stupid, and one is a psychopath, and the kind that can roll documents into a telescope at the imperial meeting. The royal family was like this, and it was not surprising that the Kwantung Army disobeyed their orders and shot their commanders.

In an area of about 100 kilometers west of Jinzhou to Shanhaiguan, the Japanese army's 9th Division, 10th Division, 11th Division, 23rd Division, 28th Division, 29th Division, and 57th Division, as well as three mixed brigades and five artillery wings, nearly 350,000 people formed several positions, and nearly 300,000 puppet Manchukuo troops and the First Army of the Air Force stationed in Mukden participated in the battle, with a total strength of 700,000 troops. Two divisions of the Chariot Corps also rushed to the west of Liaoning from the banks of Heilongjiang and the border of "Manchuria" and Mongolia.

On the allied side, the three major corps of the Qingzhou Army, the Yuzhou Army, and the Jizhou Army, plus the 77th Armored Army, the two armored divisions of the First Guards Army, and the 101st Air Cavalry Division, numbered about 500,000. Of course, the Japanese army in North China accepted the order of Nishio Shouzo, surrendered unconditionally, Pingjin was peacefully liberated, and the airfields of the Royal Air Force were moved forward on a large scale. The Japanese First Air Force in Mukden did not put those old-fashioned fighters of the Japanese army in the eyes of the royal eagles...... The two-winged old flying organs bought during the period of the young marshal are still in the Eastern Army, if they dare to take off, the Royal Air Force does not mind wasting a few fairy penguins, "The First Air Force? It's a lot of names, it's just a bunch of lighters! ”

In terms of the navy, when the other fleets had already begun to return to their home bases to recuperate, Guan Canghai led two aircraft carrier battle groups to the north again to escort the Nanyang Fourth Army to land at Nampo, North Korea, take over the defense of North Korea, and threaten the defense line of the Yalu River of the Kwantung Army. After the completion of the escort mission, Commander Guan was not in a hurry to leave the Yellow Sea, and their big drama was still to come, that is, to capture Luda. Didn't the Japanese always clamor about the first fortress in the Far East?

"Give them the most profound lessons where they feel they are the best." This was said by His Majesty, and His Majesty personally ordered: The Northern Fleet and the Marines stormed the fortress of the brigade, do not spare ammunition, and we will use as much explosives as the Japanese use to build the Port of Arthur.
