Changchun. In the Kwantung Army Headquarters, Commander Minamijiro, Chief of Staff Nishio Toshizo, and Deputy Chief of Staff Seishiro Itagaki were discussing something with a serious face.

What Ouyang Yun and Zhang Zizhong did not expect was that due to the media offensive they organized, although the news of Kenji Dohihara's arrest spread back to Japan as they wished, and caused a shock to the government and the opposition, the impact was negative. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the military forces in Japan, which had lost power, held large-scale demonstrations and petitions to dissolve the miniature cabinet, and although there was no substantial development, the military forces had completely taken the initiative.

As for the Kwantung Army, first, the appointment of the governor of Joseon was postponed, and secondly, the Kwantung Army Command was verbally recognized by the domestic military bigwigs and obtained the power to use all means on the Tianjin issue. In layman's terms, as long as Minamijiro wants to, he can now make a de facto declaration of war against China.

It had been a while since the Kwantung Army Headquarters received a distress telegram from the fourth floor of Tomamiji, and the question of whether to send troops or how large the scale was, Nanjiro, an old devil, was a little hesitant.

The Kwantung Army originally had a total of five regular divisions in the northeast, and in the second half of 35 years, the 108th Division was formed for the so-called "North China High Autonomy Program". The real purpose of forming the 108th Division was not to fight a war, but to use its presence in Tianjin to deter warlords and warlords in North China, so that the autonomy of North China could be achieved through small-scale military operations or even without the use of swords. But to Minamijiro's surprise, the Chinese army, which had always been cowardly, behaved very fiercely this time. First the Xuebing Army, then the 38th Division, they did not flee like Zhang's Northeast Army, but rushed up against the sun flag. The battle of Renqiu, although it ended with the 108th Division being coerced by the 38th Division and having to withdraw from the battlefield. However, the unexpected rise of the student army has become a reality that the Japanese have to face squarely. It was from that time that Nanjiro had the consciousness to solve the North China problem by force, and this time it was a plan to kill two birds with one stone by letting the 108th Division attack the 38th Division. Taking control of Tianjin, a strategic location, is one of them, and the other is to take this opportunity to make some achievements, help the military build momentum, and also let domestic politicians see the benefits of using force......

The development of the war to this point is obviously not something that Nanjiro could have predicted, and it is also something he can't accept-the dignified division commander, the lieutenant general-level Tu Feiyuan was caught, and the imperial army of a division was actually wrapped in rice balls by a division-level Shina soldier - this really made the old devil feel a little unbelievable - when did the Shina army become so strong? Or is the soil fertilizer plain just a straw bale? It is impossible for the people of a division and regiment not to be rescued by His Majesty the Emperor, but considering the civilian anti-Japanese armed forces that are currently rampant in the puppet Manchuria, it is impossible to mobilize troops on a large scale. Well, do you want to use those two brigades that are already stationed near Hebei? Not to mention that there is no time to win, there is also a question, will this cause Song Zheyuan and that Ouyang Yun to participate?

Before meeting with Seishiro Itagaki and Shouzo Nishio, the old devil Minamijiro had been thinking about the map for more than an hour, but he had never been able to come up with any good solutions. And what he can do now is to first dispatch a part of the aviation to carry out deterrent bombing of the positions of the 38th Division.

What is a deterrent bombing? This has to mention a combat cost. The cost of aircraft and air defense weapons is naturally a difference between heaven and earth, and the little devil was completely restrained by the air defense of the 38th Division because of his previous air strategy, so the old devil, who was worried that the air force that was not rich would be weakened again, came up with such a show. Next, there was a strange scene in the sky over Tianjin near Lizhuang, no less than 20 little devil fighters flew far away, and actually began to drop bombs at a height of more than three meters, and then, pretending to patrol around, to show that after completing the rescue mission, they hurriedly flashed people.

The accuracy of the bomb dropped at more than 3,000 meters can be imagined, and it is understandable that there was a mistake or something. But the sick devils in Li Zhuang suffered, one moment, the little devils who were looking forward to it were still looking at the "beautiful shadow" of the plane and cheering, and the next moment, when they found that many of the eggs laid by these planes fell on their heads, they screamed and scattered and fled, while scolding Yalu. The air forces in the army are far more paid than ordinary soldiers, and it is precisely for this reason that these air forces have always been arrogant and arrogant, to put it figuratively, they walk with their nostrils facing the sky. The army devils have long been unaccustomed to their virtues, and they naturally refuse to let go of the opportunity at this time. For a while, he only scolded those aviation soldiers as bloody dogs, pigs and dogs.

The scolding of the devils in Li Zhuang will naturally not be heard by the devil air force who has already gone away, and the initiator Nanjiro will naturally not hear it. At this time, he was discussing with Nishio and Itagaki about another thing mentioned in the distress telegram on the fourth floor of Tomamichi.

In addition to hoping for reinforcements, the distress telegram on the fourth floor of Tomamidi asks for instructions to use poison gas bombs at critical times.

The use of gas bombs is no small matter, and although Minamijiro does not care about violating any international treaty, he has to consider the impact it may have on him. He can not be a foreigner, but he has to guard against domestic political opponents making a fuss about it.

Nishio and Itagaki are not good things, and the two devils even have a pathological penchant for killing. And the current situation of the 108th Division also provided them with an excuse, so the two of them invariably suggested that Minamijiro accept the request of the fourth floor of Tomamiji, let them play freely, and when something really happened, the responsibility would be put on him. Nishio Shouzo said: "It's time to teach the people of China a painful lesson, the dignity of the Imperial Japanese Army cannot be violated!" ”

Minamijiro nodded and said, "That's it!" If the facts of war are unfavorable, allow them to use poison gas bombs! As for those guys in the country, huh! He snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Do they have any other skills besides hiding under the woman's crotch and pointing fingers?!" ”

"Your Excellency Commander, can the two brigades and regiments arranged on the border of Hebei also make a feint? Poison gas bombs aren't enough! After all, there are more than 20,000 soldiers of the Imperial Army in Li Zhuang...... "Itagaki has always had the intention of expanding the war, but he has never found an opportunity to speak." At this time, Xu felt that the opportunity had come, and he said.

"All-out war?" Minamijiro stood up and didn't give an answer right away.
