"Nani, what did you say? The second line of defense was raided by the Germans at night, and the other party used a plane that could hover in the sky and bombed it at night?" Ishihara felt that his brain seemed to be running out of his head, and he really didn't understand what the other party meant by what he was talking about on the phone.

What is an airplane that can hover in the sky? Is it circling? Or is it just floating there? Is this another new technology in the hands of the Germans, or is it just panicked soldiers and officers exaggerating what they have seen and heard? Just the kind of plane hovering overhead is enough to shock, and the subsequent news that the second-line defensive position has been broken through by the Germans makes Ishihara completely stunned.

He finally moved his headquarters from Harbin to Changchun day and night, but before he arrived in Changchun, he heard the news that his troops had been defeated. Even in the face of the fierce attack of the Americans, the Japanese army did not collapse so quickly, not to mention that the Americans would not easily launch a night attack, and the more fatal key was that the German army could still win after launching a night attack......

Even if it was known that the Japanese army would repeatedly carry out night counterattacks, the United States and the Soviet Union still had no way to do this kind of thing, so they could only plant more sentry posts or let the troops cancel the night rest in a short time. But even so, the effect can only be said to be unsatisfactory, and it is completely impossible to fight back.

Sadly, the Germans did it, not only easily repelling the Japanese attack during the night, but also launching a counterattack afterwards. Ishihara held the receiver of the phone, frowned, and listened to the division commander on the other side of the phone describe the battle that night in a trembling voice: "Commander Ishihara...... The opposing side sent a force that penetrated directly into the center of our line of defense and occupied the headquarters of the Kawasaki Wing......"

"Yaga! Are the sentinels and the guard units all decorations? When the opposing troops easily killed the headquarters of a wing? All the officers of the Kawasaki Wing should be seppuku! It was their dereliction of duty that killed the Kawasaki Wing!" Ishihara was trembling with anger at the battle situation in front of him, and his hand holding the phone seemed to be about to crush the telephone receiver in his palm.

This is simply a big joke, the Japanese army, which is known as the best night fighting in the world, was defeated one after another in one night. After a failed counterattack, he was taken advantage of by the night to infiltrate and terminate his own headquarters - if this was not a great shame, then Ishihara felt that there was nothing to be ashamed of in this world.

He pressed the urge to pull out his command knife and cut the division commander on the other side of the phone in half, and continued to listen to the other party's report, and the division commander over there seemed to feel Ishihara's anger, and his voice began to stutter.

As a commander of the Kwantung Army stationed in northeastern China, Ishihara had read a lot of Chinese books, and even he had studied the life of Li Hongzhang and read the modern history of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. He once heard the famous saying with a smile: guns are not as good as people, and guns are not as good as people...... Ishihara, who heard this sentence at the time, also smiled and said that it was because the other commander did not have the will to resist.

But now, what he heard in his ears was: "Our tanks are inferior to the Germans, our planes are inferior to the Germans, and the night battles seem to be inferior to the Germans...... The Germans are more advanced and tactically more powerful than us in many respects......"

He really wanted to slap the table and scold the other party, but he really couldn't find a reason to curse: his troops were really defeated by the Germans, and they were inexplicably defeated, as if they had been crushed in every way. Except for the endless charging of his soldiers, his soldiers were simply unable to resist the torrent of steel made up of tanks and various weapons.

"Immediately use all your forces to confirm to me the total strength of the German army in the Far East and the number of heavy weapons and equipment...... I want to know how much power the other side has, and whether it can threaten Inner Mongolia and North China. Ishihara finally suppressed the anger in his heart, and said to the person on the other side of the phone: "In addition, strengthen all the existing defense lines, be sure to hold on!"

After making the call, he dropped the receiver of the phone, then came out from behind his desk, picked up his coat, and said to his adjutant impatiently, "Prepare the car! I will go to Yamashita-kun immediately...... Bring me all the people from the intelligence department, and I'm going to ask them if the new weapons of the Germans have entered my headquarters, so that they can know what are the new weapons used by the other side?"

The information about the German army in the hands of the people of the intelligence department was indeed very limited, and the information that a few spies on the Soviet side managed to obtain was nothing more than some insignificant weapon models and the numbers of some troops. These things can only be regarded as better than nothing for Ishihara Waner, and they do not play a role in analysis and research at all.

As for the kind of plane that can hover in the sky, Ishihara finally knows its real name -- helicopter! As for what exactly this kind of plane is used for, and what kind of tactics the German army relies on this kind of plane, the Japanese side still does not know at all. Looking at the information in his hand, Ishihara smiled bitterly and threw it on his desk, he knew that the focus of the intelligence department's work had never been on distant Germany, so it was really no wonder that they were able to come up with these inaccurate things.

"Gather intel for me right away, figure out the performance of the other side's tanks, and those damn helicopters...... Information about the German side, including humanities, military establishment, industrial capacity, diplomatic attitudes, etc...... Whatever it is, as long as there is one, bring it to me and study it carefully! The more the better!" Ishihara Wan'er threw away the inaccurate information and instructed the members of his intelligence division, "And the commander of the other side...... Which one the hell is it?"

After saying that, he took his lieutenant and walked out to meet the rare German Tsuyamashita in Japan. Ishihara Wan'er walked towards the door and muttered dissatisfiedly, "What kind of battle is this fighting? I don't even know who the commander of the other side is. ”

Funnily enough, it is no wonder that Ishihara did not know the commander of the Germans, because the German Far East Volunteer Army was still being prepared, and the main forces were still far away in the Volga River valley to recuperate, so the commander-in-chief of the German Far East Army was still a vacancy. In this case, if Ishihara could know who the German commander was, it would be a hell of a sight.

Of course, fortunately, Ishihara didn't know about this, if the commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Front of the Japanese Kwantung Army knew that the German troops who beat him to a great deal were a group of small roles such as battalion commanders and regiment commanders, the general of the Japanese Kwantung Army might vomit three liters of blood and faint to death.

After seeing Yamashita Ishita, Ishihara was not polite, and said directly: "Yamashita-kun, our assessment of Germany's military strength is inaccurate, they were able to defeat the Soviets and the Americans, not by luck, but by relying on stronger strength...... My troops suffered heavy losses in the early encounters, do you have anything you can do about it?"

"With all due respect, General Ishihara, the best way has been vetoed by His Majesty the Emperor and the idiots in the base camp. Yamashita smiled bitterly, then shook his head and replied to the anxious Ishihara Waner: "We can't catch up with the industrial superiority of the Germans and the Americans, and the best way for us to fight on two fronts is to quickly choose a camp and go over." ”

"But, Yamashita-kun, it's not that we don't intend to choose sides, but that the United States and Germany don't accept our goodwill as if they were on the same page...... You also know the conditions they offered, but they are really unacceptable. Ishihara sighed and said to Yamashita: "Who dares to accept that kind of clause?"

Yamashita shook his head, glanced at Ishihara Wan'er and said, "Now the fool also knows that we are caught in the Chinese battlefield and cannot extricate ourselves, and accepting us is tantamount to antagonizing China...... This is obviously inconsistent with the strategic intentions of the United States and Germany. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the map and guessed: "It's easy to guess what the Germans think, they want to influence the whole of Asia and kick out the American power." It is obvious that it is better to win over China than to win us over. The Americans seem to think the same way, they don't want Germany to dominate Asia, so they try to put a nail in the hole...... It's a pity that this nail is not us, but China!"

Speaking of this, Yamashita's expression was obviously depressed, and he was a little lonely and stroked back and forth with his hand on the map hanging on the wall of his office, as if to Ishihara and as if to say to himself: "We have worked hard for 40 years, and we think we have surpassed China, but we don't know that this ancient country has been staggering for 2,000 years...... It wasn't until today that I really saw the essence of this country, the kind of foundation that can stand up even after countless setbacks. And we only have one chance to lose, and obviously this opportunity, we have wasted. ”

Hearing what Yamashita said, Ishihara Waner was obviously stunned, and he looked at the mountain standing at the bottom of the map, and suddenly became sentimental. He fought for this country for most of his life, and at the peak of his sweep through the Far East, he encountered a formidable opponent that Japan could almost never surpass—the Holy Third Reich in Europe!
