mixed in the war

"If you enter into a state of war, it must be a long-term and protracted war. If you punish China, the Chiang regime will collapse within a few months. Therefore, it is a huge mistake to only need a short-term decisive battle. China was an advanced country in Asia until the Meiji Restoration. Afraid, the Japanese thought that China was an old country and looked down on it since they defeated China in the Sino-Japanese War of [-]-[-]...China has a high degree of civilization since ancient times, and its material life is extremely primitive, and there is a high possibility of self-sufficiency in various places , These have become extremely favorable conditions for a protracted war. If a war starts, it is possible to "force" China to fight a decisive battle, but whether it will become a protracted war depends mainly on China's intentions."

"I never said that Manchuria was Japan's lifeline, nor did I think about it. Manchuria is just a scaffolding. We must start from here to Shanxi and Shaanxi. I heard that Shaanxi is rich in oil."

"We must 'work hard and maintain good relations' with the United States, because both Japan and Manchuria are rich in coal and iron resources, but lack the most important strategic resources: oil and rubber. Those things are all in the hands of the Americans and the British, so Don't turn your back on the Americans."

"However, the conflict in the future world will ultimately be the conflict between Eastern civilization and Western civilization. Therefore, it is inevitable that Japan, the representative of Eastern civilization, will have a 'final war' with the United States, the representative of Western civilization, in order to determine the future of mankind. The trend of society. In this "final war" contest, Japan is in a disadvantageous position in terms of strategic position: the country has no depth and no strategic material resources. Therefore, in the process of this protracted war, Japan must have a rear The base, this base is Manmeng. Manmeng is the lifeline of Japan!"

……

These are the views and original words of Ishihara Wanji.And Ishihara Wanji is known in later generations as the only strategist produced by the Japanese Army University's dismal management for decades.

Terrifying genius!

When people later talked about the "September [-]th" Incident, they often thought that it was a risky military operation planned by a group of low-level officers of the Kwantung Army.Many people think that if Zhang Xueliang resolutely resists.The Japanese certainly cannot succeed.But this is not the case.In order to ensure the success of this operation, Ishihara Waner had already made thorough planning and preparations.

First of all, Shi Yuan believed that the Zhang Xueliang they were directly facing was nothing more than a bum smoking opium.Therefore, once the battle starts, there is no need to use complicated tactics, just "beat the snake and hit seven inches", and while that playboy is intoxicated with tenderness, he can destroy the Fengjun headquarters in Shenyang City, and the army can be used. The leader of the Northeast Army. [

Be worried about Chiang Kai-shek.But the boss is busy "suppressing the Communist Party."And according to Lao Jiang's behavior.Ten out of ten will stand by and watch.Because Lao Jiang doesn't like dissidents as much as he likes women.The facts also proved Ishihara's guess.Not only did Lao Jiang not help Zhang Xueliang, but during the Long March of the Red Army, Lao Jiang did not forget to use the hands of the Communist Party to wipe out dissidents.For example, Hu Zongnan led an army of 5000 to follow Xu Haidong (the founding general)'s [-] men, and they never left.It's only half a day away.Xu Haidong went to Bao'an City and rested for three days, beating local tyrants to divide the land.Hu Zongnan also rested outside the city for three days.Later Xu Haidong left the city in the morning.When Hu Zongnan entered the city in the afternoon, he didn't know whether he was suppressing the Communist Party or dissidents.Therefore, when the Japanese helped to wipe out the Feng faction warlords, Chiang Kai-shek might not be happy yet.

Also worry about Soviet Russia.But Shi Yuan thought that Zhang Xueliang, the "young marshal", had already laid a hole for burying himself alive.Because in July 1928, less than a month after Zhang Zuolin died, Zhang Xueliang staged a "patriotic show".Instead of going to the Kwantung Army, who killed his father and enemy, he went with the Russians and caused a "Middle East Road Incident".He was beaten all over the place looking for his teeth, and he also played with the last straw in case something happened.

Of course, even Soviet Russia and Chiang Kai-shek didn't care about it.If the Northeast Army really wanted to go all out, the Kwantung Army would lose.Therefore, Ishihara colluded with the commander of the Korean army, General Hayashi Mijuro, through Kanda Shochu, the staff officer of the Korean army, and transferred the Korean and Japanese troops to the border without authorization according to the military law, and was ready to cross the border to support the Kwantung Army at any time.

Ishihara Wan'er considered almost everything that could be considered, and everything was going on almost according to his expectation.The only thing he didn't consider was that not only Lao Jiang stood by and watched their actions, but even Zhang Xueliang himself cooperated with them so easily... he gave the whole of Manchuria to Japan with ease.

But it's a pity, or maybe it's China's luck. After "September [-]th", the participants all went straight to the sky. The same is true for Ishihara Waner. , in fact held more than [-]% of the power of the General Staff Headquarters.Even after Nagata Tieshan was hacked to death, he was still promoted to the position of chief of operations and became one of the top three figures in the staff headquarters.But after the July [-]th Incident, because he advocated not expanding, he quickly turned against his colleagues and was squeezed out. His friend Seishiro Sakagaki tried to find a way to put him as the deputy chief of staff under Hideki Tojo of the Kwantung Army. As a result, Ishihara Kanji looked down on Tojo Hideki actually called Tojo Hideki "Tojo Lieutenant" in front of other people.Not to mention, he later got into a quarrel with the commander of the Kwantung Army Umezu Yoshijiro and others, saying that Umezu, Tojo and others are the biggest enemies of Japan and the world, and they should all be shot... So, soon, He changed from the deputy chief of staff of Tojo Hideki to a fortress commander with an empty name and no soldiers under him, and was completely idled.I stayed like this until last year, when the Japanese went to war with the Soviet Union, and my old friend Seishiro Sakagaki invited him out again to be his chief of staff.

Now Ishihara Waner is a lieutenant general.

The Kwantung Army's northern expedition to Soviet Russia was the most difficult for Seishiro Sakagaki.Because this road is facing the Soviet Union's Far East Army.But until now, the Kwantung Army has not suffered much loss along the way.There is Qin Wei's "credit" in this, but Shi Yuan Waner's part is also indispensable.Qin Wei knew that Brother Timoshen really wanted to counterattack some time ago and defeat Seishiro Sakagaki's group.But Ishihara Wan'er parachuted a brigade over there, so Timoshenko had to give up this idea.The Siberian battlefield has returned to calm after being restless.

But now, perhaps because he was in a hurry, this guy's strategist made a mistake again. He is still far away in Siberia, but he is worried about the war situation in Guangdong and Guangxi in China.

……

"Ishihara smiles."

Qin Wei couldn't help but smacked his lips after hearing this name.During the Anti-Japanese War, he could name many generals of the Japanese army, but there were very few who really liked them.Although these people seem to have won a lot of victories, but if you look closely, you can find that these people are purely bullying the poor squadron with their fine soldiers, food and weapons.Of course, the generals of the squadron are also choked up.In the war between China and Japan, it is better to say who is worse than who is better than who is better at fighting.But Ishihara Waner is different. He is a real strategist with a long-term and precise vision.

"This guy is much more capable than Doihara..."

"The wisdom of Ishihara, the courage of Sakagaki! General Ishihara is the most resourceful general in Japan." Kagesa Haraaki straightened his chest again, "But he also admires you, General Qin! In a letter to General Doihara , he also specifically asked us to express his regards to you."

"Ask me when to burp?" Qin Wei asked with a wry smile.

"Of course not." Kagezuo Zhenzhao shook his head, "I just simply greet you." [

"But I can't wait to kill him right now." Qin Wei sighed, "To think that I will stop this battle, instead of taking the opportunity to prepare a trap and kill you a few times... Then he must understand that I keep it What is your purpose?"

"You want us to merge with Britain and the United States, and then reap the benefits!" Yingzuo Zhenzhao raised his head and replied solemnly.

"Then he thinks you can do it?" Qin Wei asked.

"I don't know." Kagesa Shingaki shook his head, "This is not something that generals of my level can consider. In fact, as far as I know, there are currently only Generals Doihara, General Ishihara, and Toshi Obata who stayed behind in the 14th Division. These three men, General Shiro, are discussing these issues."

"Waner Ishihara, Kenji Doihara, and Toshishiro Obata, the only remaining member of the 'Baden-Baden Sanyuwu'... Tsk tsk, Japan still has talents after all. It's a pity that there are so few people, there is no way to stop them The large number of [-] staff officers produced by your Army University at full capacity can't stop those [-] staff officers from working together to pull the chariot of the Great Japanese Empire to its extinction." Qin Wei shook his head and sighed, "God bless the hero What a pity! What a pity!"

"I just want to ask the general, how to prevent the upcoming war in Guangxi?" Kagezuo Zhenzhao asked again with a bow.

"Of course I will use my air force." Qin Wei glanced at him, "As long as the air superiority is still in my hands, neither your base camp nor Shouyi in the temple dare to take the risk of huge losses to fight this battle , because you cannot afford to lose."

"With all due respect, General," Kagezuo Akira said sternly, "This time, the expatriate army has prepared nearly [-] 'Zero' fighter jets! This lineup will easily crush the Chinese Air Force you lead... …No matter how many tricks you use and how many ambushes you design, it will be of no use. Because even if you send out all the fighters and bombers in China, you can’t counteract so many Zeros.”

"You're wrong." Qin Wei smiled and shook his head, "Why did I run from Chongqing to Kunming? And why did I run from Kunming to Burma?... You can go back now. Go back and persuade the aviation commander this time to give up this job." One operation. Because as long as he dares to send out a plane, my people will shoot him down... Three hundred? Not enough for my people to play for half an hour."
