As soon as the morning fog cleared, a shrill siren sounded over Seoul. A few minutes later, a group of bombers taking off from Yantai created hundreds of explosive smoke balls on both sides of the Han River. In the headquarters of the Japanese and Korean armies, the sound of telephones and telegrams was incessant, and the officers and staff officers who came in and out hurriedly walked in and out, and the entire city was enveloped in the atmosphere of a great war. Citizens privately inquired about the news that the port of Incheon had been blocked from the sea, and the road south to Busan was crowded with immigrants and dignitaries preparing to flee to Japan.

On the wall of the basement deep in the Nanshan Fortress in the city, a huge military map of the Northeast hangs. In recent years, the blue arrows representing the Imperial Japanese Army on the map all stopped in front of the Yalu River defense line, and were finally squeezed and forked, gradually forming a fixed blue defense line. On the contrary, the red line of defense in the north moved rapidly last night, turning into five southbound arrows. The fastest one has even crossed the Turtle City and began to approach Anju in the lower reaches of the Qingchuan River.

"The fastest advance is this Chinese chariot unit. Lieutenant General Harada's 35th Division had abandoned Kamesei and retreated to Anju to join the 3rd Division. His Excellency Hidera Obata had blown up the Kiyokawa Bridge and ordered Tokugawa's 9th Division, Yongbyon's 66th Division, to move closer to Anju and flank the Shina chariots. Ryuzo Seshima, who is as famous as Masanobu Tsuji, stands in front of the map and explains the battle situation to officers such as Itakami and Kobayashi Asaburo.

After he finished speaking, Chief of Staff Kobayashi immediately cleared his throat and pointed to the Zhuo Fan cluster that was rapidly approaching Anzhou: "Zhina wants to achieve the goal of quickly capturing Pyongyang and Seoul through chariot troops. According to the intelligence of the special high class, the commander of this chariot unit is a red man of the Chinese army, named Zhuo Fan. He commanded both the Battle of Rzhezkazgan and the Battle of Alkarek, and the Soviets nicknamed him the 'Gasoline Butcher'. This man is very good at tank combat. At present, his troops have 3, 374 chariot divisions and 2 infantry divisions, with a total strength of more than 80,000. Obata-kun wanted to use two A divisions and two B divisions to block him by defending the Qingchuan River. It's stressful. If the Cheongchon River is lost, it will certainly threaten Pyongyang's security, and Pyongyang's 10th Army and 1st Tank Division should be transferred as soon as possible. ”

"Not only to transfer up, but also to let the troops in front hold to the death, like a screen to filter the Chinese army. Use your ability to outflank and detour and break him down with attacks from the flanks and rear. Sejima Ryuzo reminded loudly beside him, with an eager expression: "Let me go, the chariot is not terrible, there are many ways to destroy it." "The officers also offered their ideas, but they stood on the edge. Takeda Yoshio, the head of the Intelligence Division, who recorded the situation, frowned slightly. I can even get the number of the unit, but I can't imagine that the special high school under the Ministry of Internal Affairs has some skills, and I don't know if it has infiltrated the Northeast Command or the North Korean army. As he was thinking, a staff officer rushed in and bumped into him. Before he could turn back, the staff officer had already shouted loudly: "Report! An urgent telegram from General Kenkichi Ueda. The 1st Division of the China Army crossed the Tatar Strait this morning and attacked into the island of Huatai (Sakhalin). "The staff officer has finished debriefing. He also took out a telegram from Tokyo: "This is from the general to your Excellency, and China has also begun to attack Burma and the Khmer." ”

Itagawa Seishiro gasped, as soon as North Korea started, Huatai Island was landed. Even Burma and Khmer were shot out at the same time. Coupled with the Ryukyus, no matter how you count it, China has invested more than two million troops this time! This scale and intensity really surprised him and the officers. Although it is certain that the south is attacking instead of defending. But I still can't help but sigh in my heart: This is the gap in national strength.

Takeda secretly wondered, why did he fight so quickly? It stands to reason that at least we have to wait until we take the Ryukyus. will move the South Seas.

In the face of an unusually ferocious offensive, Ban Huan immediately made a decision: "Telegraph the 10th Army and the 1st Tank Division to set off." Tell Obata and the frontline monarchs that the imperial kingdom rises and falls, and fights here! Be sure to block the Shina chariot north of the Cheongchon River! ”

"Hey!"

The voice was loud and the words were excited, but the actual effect made Takeda sneer again and again. Relying on a thin-skinned chariot division and several infantry divisions, he wanted to block General Zhuo's four armored divisions, which was obviously an egg hitting a stone. Banhuan also knew that it would be difficult, so after the communications officer drafted the telegram, he personally rewrote the word 'jade shattered' at the end of the telegram, and asked Sejima Ryuzo to personally go to the front line to instruct how to fight tanks.

Seeing these two words, Takeda understood that this was urging Hidera Obata to work hard, even if he filled it with human lives, he had to block General Zhuo Fan. Thinking of this, he silently recorded the movement of troops, and left the headquarters under the pretext of cooperating with the pursuit of the guerrillas on the pretext of going to the Metropolitan Police Department. After going out, I remembered that I had another date, so I went to a restaurant next to the Metropolitan Police Department. The staff and diners in the restaurant were basically all evacuated from the air raids, except for the corner table, where Hidemi Ozaki and Zorgel sat together and whispered. Looking around to make sure no one was following, he walked over to the two of them. He knew both men, the former as a reporter for the Asahi Shimbun and the latter as a staff member of the Soviet Embassy in Japan. Of course, they are also GC international spies who are listed in the special high class. But even as spies, Takeda was not afraid of being seen with them, because now the Soviet Union and Japan were allied, and he, the head of the North Korean intelligence department, himself had a lot of cooperation with the Soviet side.

Zogel now does not need to disguise himself as he did in history, not only is he one of the Soviet Far East intelligence chiefs, but also takes the initiative to cooperate with the Japanese Special High School to collect all kinds of intelligence on the Far East and China. But he did not dare to leave the area controlled by the Japanese army, because Dai Yunong was hunting him all over the world. Takeda was a member of the GC International that he secretly developed and also joined his 'Ramsay' group. So when I saw him, I immediately evoked a smile: "Chief Takeda, you are finally here, tell me quickly, is the war very serious?" "Zorgel is an intelligence genius who knows how to use all kinds of networks, and he is proud to develop Takeda into 'his own man'. Of course, this is also deliberately done by Takeda Shunshui to push the boat. However, on the surface, he did not dare to show the identity of the two 'comrades', after all, the Japanese high-level was very jealous of GC International, so he respectfully shouted the commander before turning to the Korean campaign.

"yes, it's grim." Takeda ordered a glass of rice wine, and then talked about the investment of troops and the direction of the attack, and finally the news that China was attacking in the Northeast, the South Seas, and India at the same time made Zorger's eyes light up.

Don't look at the happy fight between the Chinese and Japanese navies, in fact, the Soviet Union and Stalin did not care, but paid more attention to the news of North Korea, which could hold back a large number of Chinese land forces. Knowing that the first batch of 40 divisions would be invested, Zorgel immediately calculated in his heart: the first batch of 40 divisions, then there must be 20 divisions in the reserve, plus Sakhalin Island and the Sea of Okhotsk are expected to have 15 divisions, Ryukyu has already invested 25 divisions, and about 25 divisions in the Southeast Peninsula and India alone The army strength invested by China itself in a full-scale war against Japan will exceed 2 million! This news is so important. You know, Moscow has always hoped that Japan would contain the Chinese army and then launch a general counterattack. To this end, two small counterattacks were also put into the beginning of the year to conduct a rehearsal to test the weaknesses. I thought that China would only solve North Korea first, but I didn't expect that the Southeast Peninsula and India and Myanmar would also take action. Don't think that China has the world's largest human resources, but in fact, the speed of military expansion and mobilization is limited by the speed of weapons manufacturing and training, and even if it is as strong as the United States, it can only be gradually increased. Therefore, at present, China's total military strength is about 6.5 million, and it can increase by about 1.5 million every year, of which the sea and air account for 1.5 million. 2 million for Japan, 600,000 in the Persian Gulf and East Africa, and no more than 2.5 million in Central Asia.

The time is finally ripe for a big counterattack!

The more Zorge thought about it, the more excited he became, and kept muttering to Hidemi Ozaki, and almost exposed his 'comrade' identity. Takeda looked at him secretly, with a sad face and a look of drinking to dispel his sorrows, until his eyebrows showed a hint of joy, and then he leaned in and asked, "Comrade Zorge, are you going to counterattack?" Zorger did not suspect Takeda, because Takeda was an intelligence officer for the Japanese military and a member of GC International. So he nodded: "Yes, General Secretary Stalin began to mobilize troops at the beginning of the month, and 1.5 million Red Army troops from Ukraine, the Caucasus, and Belarus have already arrived in Stalingrad, and the Red Army from Moscow is also ready to go. ”

"The Caucasus is also mobilized?!" Takeda was shocked, and his face was worried: "Comrade Zorge, the imperialist army is in Iran, threatening Comrade Stalin's homeland, why do you want to transfer troops from there?" Is it much? ”

"I don't know the exact number, it should be around 300,000." Zorgle patted him on the shoulder: "Comrade Takeda, you can rest assured that we have a way to hold back the Chinese Persian Gulf Corps." Hearing what he said mysteriously, Takeda wanted to ask, but when the words came to his mouth, he was still forced to suppress it, he was afraid of revealing his identity.

Zorger noticed that he wanted to stop talking, and thought that he wanted to take the opportunity to make meritorious service, and said with a smile: "Takeda, when the news from Moscow comes back, I will hand it over to you and let you continue to make meritorious contributions." "Continue to make meritorious contributions? It's not to let you penetrate deeper. Takeda knew his intentions, and he didn't think so, after all, he had another more mysterious identity, but he still put on a happy look on his face.

After exchanging some information on official business, he said goodbye to the two. As soon as I reached the entrance and exit of the air-raid shelter next to the hotel, a cigarette seller came out of it. Seeing the familiar face of the cigarette seller, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly took out the empty cigarette case, pretended to be annoyed after smoking, waved his hand and shouted: "Hey, come here!" Seeing this, the cigarette seller quickly nodded and took out a few packs of good cigarettes. While Takeda was picking out cigarettes, he lowered his voice and quickly flipped his lips: "There are Japanese spies in the Northeast Army and the Korean Army, let them check it up." I have already written the plan for Banhuan's transfer on the cigarette box, and I will report it as soon as possible. Also, tell Director Dai that Zorgle said that Moscow is going to counterattack, and it is very large, at least 250 divisions. For the first time, they also transferred 300,000 troops from the Caucasus, and said that they were not afraid of the threat of General Bai Chongxi. After finishing speaking, he took the cigarette case in his hand, picked up two packs of new cigarettes, threw out a few military tickets like waste paper, and swaggered away.

The cigarette dealer held the military ticket in distress, bent down to see Takeda away, sat down where the cigarette case was lost, and began to sell cigarettes. After a while, the cigarette case on the ground was quietly replaced...... (To be continued......)
