Fall back? Evacuate to the big valley of Renji City?

Hearing Noro Eitaro's proposal, Araki, Ishihara and the others were slightly stunned, and then they focused their eyes on a military map of Kyushu spread out on the desk. As mentioned earlier, the terrain of Kyushu Island in Japan is slightly flat in the north, and the central and south-central parts are mountainous areas with mountains on top of each other. And this city is located in a basin in the mountains of Kyushu, surrounded by mountains, but it is a good place to survive.

Now the Battle of Kitakyushu is a big defeat and a loss, and what is placed in front of these defeated generals is nothing more than two paths, death or surrender.

As a revolutionary soldier, after such a big defeat, of course, he has no shame in living in the world. But death is lighter than a feather, and some are as heavy as Mt. Fuji...... If the death of a few of them can be exchanged for the Japanese nation to escape the current catastrophe, and the red country of the Japanese can continue, then it can be regarded as a well-deserved death. But the problem is that now that the world revolution and the defeat of Japan's GCD are decided, the trend of greater East Asian reunification has become unstoppable, and even if they die, they will die in vain, and in the eyes of later generations, they are just a few stupid people who are stupid and loyal to Japan. Therefore, several high-ranking cadres of the Japanese Red Army here did not consider becoming revolutionary martyrs, well, only after the success of the revolution can they be martyrs, and now that the revolution has failed, even if they die, they are not martyrs, but innocent. Therefore, several people in the office are not ready to die, but are thinking about surrendering.

Of course, surrender does not necessarily mean betraying the party and the people to sell themselves to the enemy, and several of them here have been educated by the party and the emperor for many years. There is still some awareness of this -- if we want to abandon the light and go to the dark, we cannot run over alone, and we must take the army and the people together to take the evil road of common prosperity and democratic constitutionalism in Greater East Asia. However, the current Japanese Red Army is, after all, a people's armed force under the leadership of the party, and it is not the private soldiers of Araki and Ishihara. It's not like they can follow the enemy with a word. The vast number of Red Army commanders and fighters below are all living in the new Japan, growing up under the red flag, and they all went to the battlefield with the red quotations of Chairman Takeda. Although I don't necessarily believe the truths on the quotations, it is not easy for them to defect to China on the same day, and if they fail to join the enemy, they will end up in disrepute...... No matter how you look at it, it's a little kind and not reciprocated.

So, in addition to death and surrender, there is a third way - hide! You can't afford to hide if you can't afford it, right? Since Miyamoto Hideshi and Yamakawa can hide in the Soviet Union, two Kato can hide in the Nanyang Islands. Chairman Takeda doesn't know where to hide? So why can't these people take the troops and hide in the mountains to wait for the situation to clear?

"However, now that the army has been divided into four parts, it will be difficult for the five divisions east of the Enga River and the three divisions in Saga Prefecture to withdraw into the mountains, and if the remaining eight divisions retreat to the south. They are too isolated, and there are still two or three hundred thousand Red Guards on the battlefield in Kitakyushu, can they withdraw? And what about the tens of millions of people on the island of Kyushu? Ishihara's tone was extremely unwilling.

Of course, he knew that it was very "safe" to take the defeated more than 100,000 remnants of the defeated army to hide in the mountains and swim without attacking. At least until the Chinese army completes the occupation of major Japanese cities. The main force will not be used against the "guerrilla forces" entrenched deep in the mountains. After the Chinese army occupies all the large and medium-sized cities in Japan, the situation will be completely clear, and even if they are recruited by the Great Chinese Federal Government, the cadres and soldiers below should be easy to accept.

However, such an approach is just a one-man approach, and at most it can save the lives of hundreds of thousands of Japanese young people, what should the remaining one million or so Red Army and Red Guards on the Kyushu battlefield do? What will happen to the tens of millions of Red Army and Red Guards on the Japanese archipelago? And how many of the 60 million Japanese on the Japanese mainland and the South Sea Islands will die in this brutal war?

Thinking of this, a cold breath rose from Ishihara's spine and quickly spread along his spine to his whole body. His face turned pale all of a sudden, as if he had seen millions of Japanese young men slaughtered. I saw that the backbone of the Japanese nation was completely broken in this war! What better way out for a nation without a backbone than to obediently integrate into the Federation of Great China?

"Commander, Political Commissar Noro, I want to go back to Tokyo to report to the Military Commission of the Japanese Revolution on the situation of Operation Z." Ishihara Waner hesitated to build yì road.

"Now it is time to immediately shrink on all fronts, abandon Saga City and Kurume City, retreat to Kumamoto City and Aso-kun, telegraph the five divisions east of the Enga River to retreat to Kitakyushu City, and telegraphically order the 110th, 111th, and 112th Divisions in northern Saga Prefecture to retreat to the two cities of Sasebo and Nagasaki." Anda 23 also proposed to build yì, and his construction yì was actually a complete retreat, and the main force was transferred to the mountainous areas of south-central Kyushu, while the troops in Saga Prefecture and the eastern part of the Enga River retreated to the three large cities in the northern Kyushu region to hold on to the main force of the Chinese army.

"That's all there is to it." Sadao Araki sighed, the contingency plan proposed by Anda Twenty-Three was probably the only feasible solution at the moment. However, Araki also knew that the troops retreating to Sasebo, Nagasaki, and Kitakyushu would not last long under the onslaught of the main Chinese army. If Ishihara's trip to Tokyo did not convince the Revolutionary Military Council to agree to an armistice and peace, the hundreds of thousands of Red Army troops and hundreds of thousands of Red Guards who had retreated to Sasebo, Nagasaki, and Kitakyushu would surely be wiped out.

There was silence in the office, and the squadron had just landed on the Japanese mainland, and it had already revealed a terrifying murderous aura, and it was indeed a hundred battles of heroic divisions tempered on the battlefield of the world war, which could not be matched by the weak Japanese Red Army.

The best outcome now is probably to take advantage of the small number of troops in hand to quickly cease fighting and sue for peace, and even if we cannot win a "dominion," we must do everything possible to seek an "autonomous region." And the worst result is to be completely broken after the loss of millions of young people, bow down at the feet of the Great China Federation, and become citizens of the Great China Federation for generations - well, being a citizen is worse than being a slave, and I heard that sooner or later the hungry and cold slaves will rise up and smash the chains. But to be a citizen, especially to be a citizen of the powerful "Greater East Asian Empire". It was originally a dream thing for the Japanese, but it was not the crazy emperor who ruled this Great East Asian Empire, but the great man Chang Ruiqing. It seems that it is not unacceptable to hear that he is also a son of God......

The order of the General Headquarters of the Japanese Kyushu Army was quickly conveyed to the various battlefields in Kitakyushu, and the Japanese Red Army generals on the entire front reacted differently, and the commander of the Second Army, Daisaku Kawamoto, who was ordered to unify the command of the five Japanese divisions east of the Enga River, did not shrink immediately, but instead ordered the troops to launch several waves of counteroffensives against the Chinese army west of the Enga River. The battle was raging, the night sky was lit red with shells, and the fierce battle between the two armies lasted for a day and night.

The main force of the Japanese army in Kyushu began to shrink its forces on the night of March 8. The 108th Division held Kurume City, the main force of the Saga Prefecture Red Guard Corps held Saga City, and the rest of the troops retreated south at night into the mountains of Kumano Prefecture. The headquarters of Kyushu was moved further south to Hitoyoshi City.

Compared to the main forces of the Southern Front and the Second Army of the Eastern Front. The situation was much worse with the 110th, 111th, and 112th Divisions on the western front of the Kitakyushu battlefield. Because after the 4th Armored Cavalry Division broke through Dazaifu and Chikugo River, attacked Kurume City, and completed the division of the main Japanese army in Kitakyushu, the three Japanese divisions in the northwest of Saga Prefecture were the first to be annihilated. The main force of the 10th National Defense Army and the 1st Marine Division were drawn out, and under the unified command of the commander of the 10th Army, Zhang Yaoming, they stormed westward along the coastal road, and on the night of March 8, they captured Karatsu City, an important seaport city in northern Saga Prefecture, and knocked on the gateway to Sasebo in the west. Meanwhile. The 4th Mountain Division and the 5th Mountain Division of the 2nd Mountain Army of the Chinese Army, which landed on the Shimabara Peninsula, were also divided into two routes. The 4th Mountain Division attacked the city of Nagasaki, which was empty from the west, and on the morning of March 9, it entered the city of Nagasaki and engaged in street fighting with a small number of Japanese Red Army garrisons and Red Guards defending Nagasaki. The 5th Mountain Division quickly crossed Mt. Tara between Omura Bay and the Ariake Sea and attacked Sasebo City.

When the news of the emergency from Sasebo and Nagasaki was obtained, the 110th, 111th and 112th divisions of the Japanese Red Army were fighting fiercely with four divisions of Chinese troops in the vicinity of Higashimatsunura County and Imari City and Nagasaki, and they were already on the verge of collapse.

"Comrades Vice Chairman, Operation Z has been completely lost, the Navy has lost the ability to continue fighting, the Kyushu Army is also unable to fight again, the 110th Division, the 111th Division and the 112th Division are under heavy siege, and the 108th Division is about to be shattered...... Now is the time to negotiate with the Chinese authorities and find a way out for the Japanese nation! ”

Hearing Ishihara's words, several vice chairmen of the Japanese Revolutionary Military Committee, such as Terauchi Shouichi, Yasuo Yasuda, Nagano Shusei, and Masaki Shizaburo, were all a little stupid. On the day of the surrender, if you talk about it in private, how can you talk about it at a meeting of the Japanese Revolutionary Military Committee?

Seeing that the vice chairmen of the Military Commission and the members of the Military Commission in the conference room were silent, Ishihara was a little anxious, and shouted loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, it has been less than a month since the Chinese army landed on Tsushima Island, and the losses of the Red Army and the Red Guards under the Kyushu Army have reached more than 200,000, and the casualties among the people are no less than 100,000...... The losses of the western ** people were at least 50,000 or 60,000, and the losses of the navy were also 10,000 or 20,000, and if you count the losses of the Hawaii battlefield, the South Pacific theater, and the Japanese people in the bombing of the Chinese army, I am afraid that there will always be no less than 500,000 or 600,000, right? ”

Ishihara looked around at the high-ranking officials of the Military Commission, took a deep breath and said word by word: "Japan is not India, and it cannot afford to fight such a war...... Now we can't go on like this, we have to negotiate peace with China! ”

There was a dead silence in the conference room, and it was Yasuo Yasuda who said with a look of embarrassment: "Ah, that...... Don't worry, Ishihara-kun, diplomatic efforts have been going on all the time, and our ambassador to Switzerland is liaising with the ambassadors of China, the United States, and Germany in Switzerland to find a way to end the war. ”

Ishihara took a step forward, stared at Yasuo Yasuda and asked, "Vice Chairman Yasuda, has the diplomatic side found a way to end the war?" Can there be an immediate ceasefire? ”

"Comrade Ishihara!" Yasuo Yasuda couldn't help but get angry, he is now a member of the dignified Japanese GCD Political Bureau. Vice Chairman of the Japanese Revolutionary Military Council, member of the General Military Committee of Japan's Territorial Defense, and Japanese People's Commissar of Internal Affairs. It can be said that it is a combination of party, government and military power, after Takeda Heng avoided Nanyang. He is the largest official in Japan, but now he is being questioned by Ishihara, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Kyushu Army. "Comrade Ishihara, you are a revolutionary soldier, and as a revolutionary soldier, you should obey the party's command, not dictate to the party! The task given to you by the Party is to fight against the violent invaders who invaded Japan, not to interfere in diplomatic negotiations. If you really want to end the war as soon as possible, then please return to your command post immediately and command the troops to fight the war! Because only the front line was fought. Diplomatic negotiations are the only way to achieve a truly favorable outcome! ”

Ishihara was reprimanded by Yasuda Ichi, and he also knew that he had made some gaffes just now, although his little loyalty to the Japanese GCD had long been lost to him. But he also knows. Now is not the time for infighting, let alone a kick away from the Japanese army and going it alone...... Even if the army has such strength, it can't do that. Moreover, the old officer group of the Japanese Red Army did not have such strength, and now all the divisions stationed around Tokyo were headed up with guards, and these units were called "Young SS" behind the back. Naturally, it was controlled by a young GCD officer who was absolutely loyal to the Japanese and finally Takeda.

"I would like to ask Vice Chairman Yasuda. What conditions are we prepared to put forward in the negotiations? Ishihara's tone softened, but he still asked.

Yasuo Yasuda was silent for a while, then sighed and said, "These are the party's top secrets, and they can't be passed on to the outside world, so let's make an exception now." His gaze swept over the members of the Military Commission of the Japanese Revolution in the conference room, and most of them did not know that the direction of the world revolution had undergone a serious change......

……

Western suburbs of Moscow, Villa Kontsevo.

The secretary gently pushed open the door of the conference room, and the urgent report sent by the Soviet ambassador to Japan, Nikita Khrushchev, was placed in front of the members of the Political Bureau and the senior generals of the Red Army. The atmosphere didn't dare to go out and walked out quickly, but when he closed the door, he couldn't help but glance into the cold and gloomy atmosphere of the conference room. I sighed deeply in my heart.

Japan has been defeated!

Although we have not yet finally knelt down in front of Chinese imperialism, I believe that this day will not be far away. This is undoubtedly another bolt from the blue for the world revolution!

Only a few months ago, there were still three giants in the camp of the world revolution -- the Soviet Union, India, and Japan -- and the red flag was planted all over half of Europe and half of Asia.

But less than half a year later, two of the triumvirate of the world revolution had completely collapsed, and the Indian GCD had lost most of the Middle East and half of India - the richest and most grain-producing half! Although the Indian GCD still firmly controls the rest of India's territory, it has lost the courage and capital to continue to participate in the world revolution, and can only consolidate its power behind closed doors. And the shape of the Japanese G looks even more dangerous than the Indian G, and in just a few days, their combined fleet, which has been galloping in the Pacific for several years, has made the Chinese almost annihilated! To make matters worse, the powerful Chinese National Defense Forces have been continuously landing on Japanese soil, and they have also raised the banner of the Great East Asian Unification War, which seems to be determined to destroy Japan......

And after the defeat of India and Japan, I am afraid that all the forces of world imperialism will be used to destroy the Soviet Union!

"Yesterday, the cities of Nagasaki, Sasebo, Saga and Kurume, which are important cities on the Japanese island of Kyushu, were captured by the Chinese invading army, three more Japanese Red Army divisions were surrounded, and one Japanese Red Army division was routed...... In addition, Ishihara, deputy commander-in-chief of the Japanese Kyushu Army, proposed at an emergency meeting of the Japanese Revolutionary Military Council that he would surrender to Chinese imperialism. ”

"Did Takeda Heng dispose of this Ishihara?"

Skryansky shook his head: "Takeda Heng still did not attend the meeting of the Revolutionary Military Council, which was co-chaired by Shouichi Terauchi and Yasuo Yasuda...... Comrade Khrushchev speculated that he might well have left the Japanese mainland. In addition, Yasuda revealed at the meeting that we were ready to compromise with imperialism for the time being. ”

How could he do that? In case this news spreads, it will severely attack the will of the Japanese military and civilians to resist! Tukhachevsky said with a frown.

"The strategy of the Japanese and the G has long been to seek peace with war, and this has long been clear to the middle and senior officers of the Japanese Red Army, and if the Chinese are willing to turn Japan into an autonomous region of the Great China Federation and continue to be led by the Japanese GCD, the Sino-Japanese war will end immediately."

Trotsky rubbed his eyebrows, he already saw the future of the Soviet Union from the Indian and Japanese g. Now is no longer the time to be bold enough to liberate all mankind, but to figure out how to preserve the regime of the Soviet GCD...... This is the most important thing, no matter what the cost, we must keep power!

On this point, the positions of the United Nations, Japan, and India are all the same, and everything is easy to discuss, but it is absolutely unshakable to uphold the party's leadership!

But the question is, can the enemy accept a GCD-led Soviet Union or Russia to continue to exist? (To be continued......)
