The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 919 Two birds with one stone

The devil's joint captain led the remnants of the defeated generals to flee desperately, and ran for more than ten miles. They couldn't run anymore, so they stopped.

They fell to the ground in a haphazard manner, and it took a long time to recover.

The devil's joint captain asked his subordinates to count the number of people, and the result directly made the guy shed tears.

The infantry wing led by the wing captain is a reorganized field wing with a full strength of 3780 people.

But now there are only more than 100 people who escaped with him, including the wounded. After causing such a huge loss, they didn't even see how many people came and what they looked like.

The regiment leader knew that the 142nd Division had sent troops to attack Shoucheng County. He was very angry now, thinking that the division commander was full of food, and went to provoke that terrible Gao Jiu, causing the loss of his officers and soldiers in vain. so many people.

Zhang Quan, Wang Zhankui, Du Shengxi, Liang Shihu, Shi Jianlong and others launched attacks on different targets of the Japanese army, which also caused a large number of Japanese casualties.

The head of the 142nd Division of the Japanese Army sent a telegram to the commander of the 12th Army with a sad face, and the content of the telegram was transferred to the North China Front Army Command shortly thereafter.

Beiping, North China Front Army Headquarters.

Hamada Yoshito took the telegram sent by the 12th Army, came to the office of Commander Komura, and handed the telegram to the commander.

After reading it, the commander said depressedly: "Gao Jiu's Taohuashan guerrillas are really too difficult to deal with. In just one night, the 142nd Division lost more than 5000 people, which is equivalent to one and a half regiments being wiped out by others. The loss is too great."

Hamada Yoshiichi said with a wry smile: "Your Excellency Commander, this is just the beginning, and I don't know how much loss I will suffer. This is the consequence of angering Gao Jiu."

After speaking, he shook his head vigorously.

The port village commander knows the ins and outs of this matter.

He said: "Minister, you shouldn't listen to the bewitching of those in the Kwantung Army. Mr. Hamada, based on what you know about Gao Jiu, how can he stop attacking the Huang Army? This situation is difficult to deal with."

Commander Komura is a man with a deep reputation in the city, and what he meant in his words was to blame Dohimoto, but he didn't say it clearly.

He asked Hamada Yoshihide for his opinion on how to deal with it, but he actually hoped that Hamada Yoshihide would get in touch with Gao Jiu directly to negotiate with him.

Of course, he won't say this clearly.This is how big people speak vaguely, depending on the understanding of the person they are talking to.

Yoshito Hamada is a smart man, of course he knows what Commander Komura means.

He shook his head and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, to tell you the truth, this time Gao Jiu did not get in touch with me, and launched an attack directly. I have no way to contact him directly now, and I can only wait for him to make a condition." Come on, make another plan."

The commander of Gangcun said worriedly: "In this case, when will Gao Jiu's attack on the Huang army stop?"

Hamada Yoshito said with a wry smile: "I don't know, I have to resign myself to fate. Ordering the troops to strengthen their guard may reduce losses."

Commander Komura and Yoshito Hamada were very afraid of receiving a new telegram, because it must be reporting how much damage the Huang Army suffered somewhere else.

What should come will always come. The 12th Army of the Japanese Army in the direction of Shandong soon sent a telegram, saying that Tai'an City encountered a large-scale attack by the anti-Japanese armed forces. It also includes people from the Taohuashan guerrillas.They captured Tai'an City in one fell swoop and completely cut off the posture of Jinpu Railway.The commander of the 12th Army requested tactical guidance.

Commander Komura felt that there was nothing he could do. While studying countermeasures with Yoshihito Hamada, he reported the situation in the Shandong direction to Yuan Doi.

The base camp of the Japanese army in Tokyo, the Ministry of the Army.

Ever since the plan for Gao Jiu was formulated, Doi Yuan had a short-lived excitement.After all, Miura Jun is his proud apprentice. He has achieved certain results in the attack on Peach Blossom Mountain, and successfully transferred Gao Jiu back to Peach Blossom Mountain.

However, bad news came one after another. First, the Sixth Air Force failed to intercept Gao Jiu. Not only did they lose a large number of fighter jets, but even the special envoy of the Minister of the Air Force lost his life.

Next, Jun Miura's attack on Gao Jiu failed again, and the carefully selected agents he brought with him were basically lost, and Jun Miura had almost become a polished commander.

To make matters worse, Gao Jiu has now retaliated, and the Japanese army lost thousands of troops in one night.Now Tai'an City is surrounded by anti-Japanese armed forces again, and the 142nd Division of the Japanese Army defending the city is in danger of being wiped out.

If Tai'an City misses again, the Jinpu Railway will be completely cut off, and Tu Feiyuan will be slapped in the face. Such a result is really unacceptable to him.

Last time, under the plan of Dohi-en, the Japanese army recaptured Tai'an City. For this, Doi-en received unanimous praise from the base camp, and grand celebrations were held in Japan.How long has it been? If Tai'an City is lost, the fat and round face will be thrown to the ground and let others trample on it. Therefore, Tai'an City must not be lost.

Do Feiyuan sent a telegram to the commander of Gangcun, telling him to keep Tai'an City no matter what.

Xiangyang, the Sixth Air Force of the Japanese Army.

The commander of Bei Dao did not know where he went, and the chief of staff temporarily took over the command. For several days in a row, he received reports from the radar soldiers that a large number of enemy planes were flying from the south to Nanyang.

The chief of staff knew that these planes belonged to the Taohuashan guerrillas, and they were flying from the direction of the Golden Triangle, heading for Nanyang, Kaifeng or Taohuashan.He didn't have the heart at all, nor did he have the guts to go up and intercept it.

The fighter squadron leader was betrayed by Commander Bei Dao last time, and the fighter squadron had suffered such a big loss, so of course they didn't want to cause trouble.

The captain of the bomber squadron was a close confidant of Commander Bei Dao, but when Commander Bei Dao escaped, he was not notified. He was also very angry, and naturally he didn't bother to care about the enemy plane passing through the Sixth Air Force's defense zone.

Therefore, the three main officers of the aviation team kept silent, pretending not to have heard about the large number of planes passing by Taohuashan.

The large number of planes passing by Xiangyang is the air force of the Taohuashan guerrillas flying from the Golden Triangle.

Gao Jiu was really angry this time. He was determined to teach the Japanese army in Shandong a harsh lesson, so he ordered a large number of air forces to be transferred from the Golden Triangle and deployed to the airports in Nanyang, Kaifeng, and Taohuashan.

After the air force of the Taohuashan guerrillas was deployed, Gao Jiu gave the order to attack.

For several days, the 142nd Division of the Japanese Army stationed in Tai'an and the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army stationed in Zaozhuang were almost continuously bombed by the air force of the Taohuashan guerrillas, and the Japanese army suffered heavy losses.

Beiping, North China Front Army Headquarters.

Bad news kept coming, Hamada Yoshihito couldn't sit still.

He came to the office of the commander of Gangcun and said to Gangcun: "Your Excellency, Commander, just received a report from the 12th Army that the 142nd Division stationed in Tai'an and the 3rd Division in Zaozhuang were bombed by enemy planes." Half an hour ago, the 141st Division stationed in Jinan was also bombed by planes, and not only that, but also a large number of rocket attacks, the loss was too great."

Komura said dejectedly: "The Third Air Force stationed in Jinan has already withdrawn, and the air force has no way to support the Japanese army fighting in the direction of Shandong, and our army lacks air defense weapons, which is really a headache!
You said that the 141st Division was attacked by rockets just now, which means that the enemy has launched an attack on the ground. The situation in the southern Shandong area is worrying. Tai'an City may be difficult to defend. We must find a way to stop Gao Jiu's attack. This situation must be changed immediately. ..."

Speaking of this, the commander stopped, looked at Yoshito Hamada, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Can you get in touch with Gao Jiu to resolve the conflict."

Hamada Yoshihito shook his head, sighed, and said: "Gao Jiu had already gone to the Golden Triangle, and the people arranged by His Excellency the Minister took the initiative to provoke Gao Jiu. The people in Peach Blossom Mountain killed and injured many people, and they wanted to murder Gao Jiu." Nine. This kind of thing cannot be solved with one or two sentences of explanation, it needs to give Gao Jiu a reasonable explanation."

Commander Komura understood what Hamada Yoshito meant, and said: "This matter is really difficult. The person who tied the bell must be untied. I am afraid that Minister Doi Yuan will have to face Gao Jiu in person, or at least put The people he arranged to hand over."

Hamada Yoshito nodded and said: "You are right, the embarrassment is here. This may calm Gao Jiu's anger. But Miura Jun is a member of the Kwantung Army, and we have no right to deal with this matter. Your Excellency the Minister Just nod yourself."

Komura said: "The only thing we can do now is, I'm afraid we can only truthfully report the situation here to His Excellency the Minister. I hope this is enough pressure to make him change his mind and make a correct judgment."

Hamada Yoshito said: "Your Excellency, Commander, there must be a choice in this matter, and it depends on how the Minister makes a decision. Jun Miura is his favorite student after all, and it must be difficult for Your Excellency Commander to make such a determination. We also I can only do my best to obey the destiny.”

According to the request of Commander Komura, Hamada Yoshito kept reporting Gao Jiu's attack in the direction of Shandong and the losses of the Japanese army to Doi Yuan, but Doi Yuan did not reply for the time being.

Hamada Yoshito's adjutant found a staff officer transferred from the Kwantung Army. This person had a relationship with Miura Jun. He accepted the adjutant's entrustment to meet Miura Jun on behalf of Hamada Yoshito.

The man said what Hamada Yoshito meant, that he wanted Miura Jun to quickly come up with a result, either he could really kill Gao Jiu, or he would give an explanation to the minister, and no matter what, he must try to stop Gao Jiu from attacking Shandong. Japanese invasion.

Miura Jun is very smart, I have already heard it, this is the North China Front Army wanting to sacrifice themselves, meaning that either you have the ability to kill Gao Jiu, or you will be killed by Gao Jiu, and use his Miura Jun's life to appease Gao Jiu's anger, End the bad situation in front of you.

Jun Miura knew that he was an unwelcome person in the North China Front Army, and he had to quickly come up with a solution, otherwise, the North China Front Army would probably kill him and give Gao Jiu an explanation.

In order to appease the emotions of the North China Front Army, Miura Jun said that he would immediately contact Minister Doi Endo, and that the Minister would definitely give the North China Front Army new instructions.

Miura Jun now has only a dozen people left under his command. He discussed with two of the backbones how to face the difficult situation in front of him.

The three of them were all secret agents, and they had also struggled in the officialdom for many years. They knew that they had no way out now, and they were very likely to be used as scapegoats by people including Dohimoto.The thing is obvious, it is impossible for Doi Yuan to offend the entire North China Front Army because of a few of them, nor is it possible to watch tens of thousands of Japanese troops being wiped out by Gao Jiu.If there is really no other way, I'm afraid the only option is to use the three of them as scapegoats.

The three discussed and discussed, thinking that there is only one result at present, either to kill Gao Jiu, or to die under Gao Jiu's hands.

They decided to put all their eggs in one basket and go to assassinate Gao Jiu again.

After making up his mind, Jun Miura came to see the people sent by Yoshito Hamada and asked the North China Front Army to provide them with information about Gao Jiu.

After Hamada Yoshito received the report, it was not convenient for him to come forward, so he also arranged for his adjutant to provide relevant information to Miura Jun.

Hamada Yoshito came to see Commander Komura, and after reporting to him about Jun Miura, he said to Commander Komura: "Your Excellency, I think this is an opportunity to solve the problem, we might as well Come kill two birds with one stone."

Komura asked, "What are your specific thoughts?"

Yoshito Hamada said: "Since Jun Miura is going to assassinate Gao Jiu again, we certainly hope that he will succeed. But Gao Jiu is by no means such an easy person to deal with. The possibility of Jun Miura and others succeeding in the assassination is basically zero." .

What I mean is that you might as well report to Gao Jiu that Miura Jun is about to assassinate Gao Jiu. This is not a betrayal of Miura Jun, because even if we don't notify Gao Jiu, Gao Jiu has just been assassinated, and he will also be more vigilant of.We informed Gao Jiu, and at least expressed our sincerity to him, so we had room to negotiate and bargain with Gao Jiu. "

The port village commander nodded and said, "It makes sense. You just said one aspect, you said kill two birds with one stone, what is the other part?"

Yoshito Hamada said: "Although we have notified Gao Jiu that someone is going to assassinate him, we can also provide false information to Gao Jiu. I said that Miura Jun and others are going to assassinate Gao Jiu in Peach Blossom Mountain, and Gao Jiu I am now near Tai'an City, and I have already sent someone to inform Miura Jun that Miura Jun will definitely go to Tai'an to assassinate Gao Jiu.

I will send someone to secretly remind Miura Jun, let him make a surprise attack, send some people to actually attack Peach Blossom Mountain, and he himself will assassinate Gao Jiu near Tai'an, maybe he can confuse Gao Jiu and create opportunities for Miura Jun. "
