Chapter 428: Turmoil

"You're going to kill me?"

Taiyuan.

has been driving all of Hu Zongnan's troops out of the Shanxi territory, and Tada Jun and Shinozuka Yoshio finally have time to rest for a while. Both are proud and excited...... In this battle, they played the great "majesty" of the Japanese Imperial Army, and in one fell swoop defeated the two most powerful national armies in North China without the power to fight back, especially the Nakajo Mountain Wei Lihuang Division, which was almost completely disappeared after this battle. This was a rare victory for the entire Japanese war of aggression against China. Especially when they still carried out a Jedi counterattack with a disadvantage, this is even more commendable. The two believed that their battle should be recorded in the history of war and become a classic example. And they are all confidently waiting for the commendation from the base camp, especially Tada, who not only wants to be rewarded, but also hopes to obtain the coveted rank of general. …… For them, the situation is almost all about the same.

But at this festive moment, some people made them uncomfortable.

News came from Guangxi, far away in Tiannan, that someone was going to kill Tada Jun. According to legend, it was Qin Wei who let the talker!

"Who does he think he is?"

Like all the Japanese generals who had been "" by Qin Wei, Tada Jun was furious. He can't help but be angry, whoever has just made a splashing contribution, and is waiting for the above to be rewarded and promoted, will not be happy to hear such a rumor, not to mention that he is not an ordinary person, he is the commander of the North China Front Army who commands hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops.

"Tada-kun, be careful. It is rumored that Qin Wei has an extremely mysterious intelligence organization in his hands, and he is good at assassination, you are the head of our North China Front, and you must not be lost. Yoshio Shinozuka sighed on the side: "After all, the imperial army has lost more than one general in his hands. ”

"What do you mean by this, Shinozuka-kun? Do you think I'm Sugiyama Moto? Tada became even more annoyed. Don't look at him as Sugiyama Moto's successor, but he doesn't deal with Sugiyama Gen at all. Even I have always looked down on that "fool yuan". As a China expert, he is actually an "ally" of Doheihara, Sakagaki Seishiro and others, and they all have the same understanding of the war against China. That is, they are all the previous "non-enlarged faction"!

There is also Ishihara Waner, Tada Jun was elected as the deputy chief of staff after the "77 Incident", and the friendship between the two is not shallow. At that time, Tada Jun basically had no experience in serving in the Army Central Committee. Therefore, he is very grateful for Ishihara's recommendation. In addition, the two had the same views, so at that time, together with Shibayama Kanshiro, then chief of the Army's Military Affairs Section, supported Ishihara's policy of non-expansion, believing that the war against China could only weaken the war preparedness against the Soviet Union and defeat Nanjing. He also consistently insisted on negotiating peace with Chiang Kai-shek. However, because of the opposition of Sugiyama Mototo and Foreign Minister Hirota Hiroki, his views were not accepted by the government, especially after the then Japanese Prime Minister Fumima Konoe issued a declaration that "the Nationalist Government will not be a negotiating partner", and the peace talks were completely out of play.

After the door to the Sino-Japanese peace talks was closed, Tada Jun repeatedly expressed his views on the war. And most of them have been proven to be correct. So, albeit just a lieutenant general. But he had a great reputation in the Japanese Army. Not smaller than the others. When Nobuyuki Abe formed a cabinet, he even hoped that he could serve as the minister of land, but unfortunately Emperor Hirohito seemed to look down on him, so he sent Anan Yuji to find Okamura Ninji and asked Okamura Ninji if he wanted to be the land minister, but Okamura Ninji said that he wanted to stay on the battlefield. After that, this guy was captured alive by the airborne troops sent by Qin Wei in the Battle of Nanchang. And Okamura Ninji didn't do it, it seemed that it would be Tada's turn, but Hirohito still didn't look for him. It's just that Shunroku Hatata, who was born as a chief attendant, was determined...... And Tada Jun has been repeatedly promoted to the hopeless, and the above also gave a "consolation prize": replacing Sugiyama as the commander of the North China Front. Immediately after, shortly after he took over, Sugiyama Mototo and Yamashita Fengfumi, who went to Wuhan to "supervise the war" for Hirohito, were destroyed by bombers sent by Qin Wei.

However, this has nothing to do with Tada. After taking charge of the North China Front, Tada Jun was deeply aware of the threat posed by the Communist Party's anti-Japanese base areas to Japanese rule in North China, so he vigorously pursued the "cage policy" and intensively divided the anti-Japanese base areas, greatly reducing the room for maneuver of the Eighth Route Army. It's just that in the past, his main force either had to support Naosaburo Okabe, who was pressed and beaten by Fu Zuoyi, or to see Zhongtiao Mountain, where Wei Lihuang was stationed, and he could only be "imprisoned", not "fighting". But this time he was provoked by Hu Zongnan, he tried his best, and he never thought that Ju Zai would turn the situation back all at once.

Of course, the reason why Tada Jun was able to easily win a big victory in Nakajo Mountain was not a fluke. One is that Hu Zongnan attracts the attention of most people, and Zhongtiao Mountain is defenseless at all; Second, he began to plan against the national army on Zhongtiao Mountain as early as after he succeeded him. The Chinese army stayed in the Zhongtiao Mountains, where there was not much grain production and could only be sold, while the national army had too many bad habits, and at the same time they sold food, they also sold some tobacco and soil, so that all kinds of people gathered...... And hundreds of thousands of troops gathered, and the demand was huge, so Zhongtiao Mountain became a place for business for a while. But as long as there are people doing business, there will be a flow of people, and Japanese spies can naturally be easily mixed in. In addition, in order to deal with Wei Lihuang, Tada Jun conducted intensive training for mountain warfare for the main force early on, and cleared the surrounding area in advance to prepare for the surprise attack. It can be said that the Battle of Nakajo Mountain was a war that broke out suddenly for the national army, but it was a battle that had been planned for a long time for Tada.

After Tada Jun led the reinforcements into Shanxi, he went straight to Zhongtiao Mountain, but who knew that his special forces had already parachuted into the headquarters of the Chinese army at that time and were secretly lurking? Less than an hour after the start of the war, the command system of the Chinese army was paralyzed, and each unit fought on its own, and naturally had no power to fight back against the organized Japanese army. What's more, the Chinese army did not realize that there would be a bloody battle at all, and even the upper echelons of the army did not expect it, and the lower troops did not have any preparations for the battle. On the side facing the Yellow River, the fortifications of the ferry have not been strengthened, not to mention that it is doubtful that there is not enough food reserves. As a result, there was a strange thing that the Japanese soldiers who attacked from a distance were well fed, and the Chinese troops guarding their positions were surrounded and had a desperate situation of "three days without food"! If you starve you for three days, you won't even be able to lift the "big knife", and if the troops don't collapse at the slightest touch, won't it be against the sky?

Defeated the two Chinese group armies in three days, and killed more than 100,000 people, including the slaughtered prisoners, Tada Jun actually did not have this ability. Chinese army. In fact, it was all about his own carelessness and lack of preparation.

But this kind of thing can happen to Chinese, but Tada Jun never believes that he will encounter it.

"As long as I'm careful, just a few killers, what can I do? I don't believe that Qin Wei really has three heads and six arms like the legend! I'm not Sugiyama Moto, I'm not Okamura Ningji, and I'm not the puppet of Wang Jingwei he killed. ”

"But Qin Wei's threat is also real," Yoshio Shinozuka was grateful to Tada Jun for personally leading troops to save him, but it was because of gratitude that he had to tell the truth, "From Commander Shouichi Terauchi." To the two generals of Tufei Yuan Xian, they have all deeply felt the threat of Qin Wei. Sugiyama Moto, Yamashita Fumi, Okamura Ninji, Inaba Shiro, Nakai Ryotaro, Saito Yaheita, Yoshimoto Sadachi, and even Vice Admiral Toyoda, who had just been appointed in Guangzhou, Qin Wei was the Chinese officer who held the most blood debt among the generals of the imperial army. Commander, your safety is at stake in the war situation in North China. Don't be careless. ”

"I'm not careless." Tada Jun snorted coldly: "I want to see how he can kill me!" ”

*****************************************************

"When did I say I was going to assassinate Tada?"

Qin Wei was called back to Chongqing by Lao Jiang again.

That's where the mouth comes in.

Not only Lao Jiang looked for him. Everyone else was looking for him, too. Got off the plane. got into the car, and just arrived near Zengjiayan, he was stopped by a group of reporters, which was called a flood...... finally maintained order, ordered a fairly good-looking chick, and the other party went straight in. Asking him when he planned to assassinate Tada Jun made him wonder how to answer for a while.

"Chief Qin, we know that this matter must be confidential, but you must give it time, right?" Chick reporters clearly don't plan to give up. continued to ask: "Tada Jun killed 100,000 of my soldiers, and his hatred with my people is as deep as the sea, do you still plan to let him live so happily all the time?" ”

"Please, this eldest sister," Qin Wei couldn't help but wipe a cold sweat when he heard this, "What does it mean to live happily?" It's public, in broad daylight...... Isn't it a bit unharmonious to discuss what kills or doesn't kill people in this way? ”

"Chief Qin, who doesn't know how powerful you are?" Another male reporter rushed past the guards: "You killed the Japanese in Shanghai on the beach, this time you decided to attack Tada, is it because you are angry at his evil act of killing prisoners?" ”

"This brother, the word 'start' is not used well. I think...... Not very civilized. Qin Wei wiped a cold sweat again, looking at the large group of reporters around him who wanted to squeeze over, his heart twitched vigorously. The journalist asked the "killer" when to kill? Isn't this world a little too crazy?

"Sir Qin, the national army was defeated in Zhongtiao Mountain, and the battle of Liangguang under your command was also a failure...... But at this time, you are caring about the Japanese army in North China, is this deliberately diverting people's attention and trying to shirk responsibility? Another person broke into the circle of guards, and he was even more radical, and his head almost stuck out of the window of Qin Wei's car. However, hearing this question, which seemed to have a lot of "malicious", Qin Wei breathed a sigh of relief:

"Woo...... Finally, there is a normal person. What did you just ask, brother? ”

"I asked you if you deliberately pulled the topic to Tada Jun to shirk responsibility!" The journalist asked aloud.

"You're so smart, brother." Qin Wei smiled: "I just want to use Tada Jun to attract the attention of others, especially the Japanese army in Guangdong, and then hit them with a surprise attack, but ......" The smile on Qin Wei's face "suddenly" closed, "You asked me this question, so that our army's confidential military intelligence was leaked, do you know what the crime is?" ”

"Huh?"

"Ahh Qin Wei rolled his eyes and patted the driver on the shoulder, "Drive!" (To be continued......)
