Glorious Mission 1937

() The sudden change in the attitude of the national government made Juichi Terauchi very angry. He was still complacent about the brilliant plan he came up with a few days ago, but now he is venting fiercely in the office like an angry bull The anger in my heart.

Hearing the crackling sound in the office, the guards outside hid far away, and no one dared to approach.Everyone knows the temper of Your Excellency the Commander. It is usually fine. Although it is severe, it will not kill innocent people indiscriminately.However, once the anger value of Your Excellency the Commander soars to a critical point, the most vulnerable are the guards.Some time ago, a recruit from Hokkaido was cut into two pieces by the enraged Commander because he didn't know his character.

Suddenly, as if seeing a savior, a soldier stared fixedly not far away.Following the soldier's eyes, I saw a Japanese officer wearing a lieutenant general's uniform walking towards this side quickly.

"Your Excellency, Commander, are you angry again?" When he walked to the door, the lieutenant general asked with a smile.

"Hay, yes, Chief of Staff, Your Excellency, let's go in and have a look!" The captain of the police guard, Major Kojiro Yamada, replied respectfully. He knew very well that in the entire Northern China Front Army, only the Chief of Staff could make the furious Commander Restoring calm.

"Okay, you can do whatever you want, and I will persuade you, Commander!" After speaking, he strode towards the office of General Kotobuki in the temple.

Seeing General Kobe Naozaburo push the door in, Terauchi Toshiichi calmed down a little, and threw a cup he was holding in his hand that was about to be dropped onto the table viciously.Make a 'tom' sound.

Lieutenant General Kobe Naozaburo walked straight to the side of Shouyi's desk in the temple and sat down, then said: "Are you angry about the affairs of Chen Feng's subordinates?"

"Jiang Zhengfu did not deal with Chen Feng's troops as we thought. Instead, he added two new regiments to the 61st Army. Although Chen Feng's position and rank were downgraded, in fact the 61st Army was still led by Chen Feng himself. Take control, our flattery plan has completely failed." Terauchi Toshiichi said loudly.

"It's not a failure, it can only be said that we didn't achieve our expected goal. In fact, due to our flattery, Zheng Fu's wariness towards Chen Feng has risen to a very high level. The situation where the two sides were at war a few days ago was not False, the idea of ​​Jiang, the leader of China, wishing to bring the 61st Army back to the central yang does not seem to be false, but because Chen Feng is too tough and his prestige in the 61st Army is too high, so he had to change his approach. As for the two I'm afraid Chen Feng won't be willing to accept the regiment's supplementary soldiers!"

"Nani, although the 61st Army severely damaged the Mongolian Army on the Xilin Gol Grassland, their own losses were not small. The supplementary soldiers of the two regiments were enough to make up for his losses. How could Chen Feng not be willing to accept it?" General Shou of the temple wondered. asked.

"The 61st Army of China was created by Chen Feng alone. It was developed by a local security regiment. Its foundation is the Chen family's food protection team. It can be said that this army is Chen Feng's private army. They will try their best to obtain the actual control of this army, even at the expense of getting rid of Chen Feng. It's a pity that Chen Feng is full-fledged now, and under the propaganda of China's government and ours, Chen Feng has become the spiritual pillar of China's resistance force. With our big Japanese imperial army staring at us, the Chinese government did not dare to let go of Chen Feng, so they continued to supplement the 61st Army with troops from the Central Yang Army series, dividing Chen Feng's rights in the 61st Army, so as to gradually control the 61st Army The purpose of military and political power. Therefore, Chen Feng may not be willing to accept the supplementary soldiers dispatched by Jiang Zhengfu." Lieutenant General Naozaburo Kobe said.

"Then what should we do now? Although the plan of flattering and killing has greatly intensified the relationship between the Chinese government and Chen Feng. But after all, it has not achieved our expected goal. Are we just waiting for the Chinese government to slowly control the 61st Army?" General Shou said.

"Your Excellency, Commander, our purpose is not to assist the Chinese government to control the 61st Army, but to completely destroy this Chinese army that has brought great shame to the Great Japanese Empire and the Great Japanese Imperial Army. Although we ordered the first fire, but the fire is still not strong enough to make Zhina Zheng Fu dare not take advantage of our fire to withdraw Chen Feng in one fell swoop, so we still have to pour some fuel on the fire."

"How?"

"Zina Zheng Fu wants to dilute the power of the 61st Army through differentiation, and then achieve the goal of fully controlling the 61st Army. If they are really allowed to carry it out slowly, it is very likely that the final result will be that the commander of the 61st Army is replaced by Chen Feng. Others, such as Xue Yue, Luo Zhuoying or Du Yuming. This is not of much benefit to our Japanese imperial army. The powerful army of the 61st Army still exists. So we have to destroy the situation created by the Chinese government and force them to Take action in advance to completely intensify the conflict between the 61st Army and the Chinese government."

"Yo Xi, what the Gangbu army said is very reasonable, but the leader of China, Jiang, is a shrewd person. Can your fueling tactics really intensify the conflict between them?"

"It's absolutely possible. According to the information sent back by the intelligence personnel who sneaked into the 61st Army from TGK, the 61st Army is not monolithic. The 61st Army now has three infantry divisions and an air defense brigade. In addition to these troops, there is also a teaching brigade. This brigade All the officers and soldiers belong to the direct descendants of the leader of China, Jiang. They were transferred to the 61st Army not long ago. They are the nails that the Chinese government drove into the 61st Army. The army is completely in their own hands."

"So what, are you going to win over the officers of this teaching brigade and let them serve the Great Japanese Empire?"

"Your Excellency, Commander, don't you think it's time for Ms. Minuchi to act?" Lieutenant General Naozaburo Okabe said with a smile.

"You mean..."

"Yes, let Ms. Minako assassinate Chen Feng. As long as Chen Feng is dead or seriously injured, then the government of China will definitely take over the 61st Army forcefully. At that time, there will inevitably be conflicts with other officers of the 61st Army. The 61st Army is likely to have internal strife. !"

"Then what if the Chinese government completely controls the 61st Army?" Terauchi Shouichi said with a frown.

"It doesn't matter, they won't have this chance. When the 61st Army and the Chinese government are in conflict, if our Imperial Japanese Army suddenly launches a strong siege, what does your Excellency Commander think will be the result?" Naozaburo Okabe said with a smile.

"Yoxi, yoxi! Mr. Gangbu is worthy of being an elite in the Imperial Japanese Army. In this way, regardless of whether Chen Feng is dead or not, the conflict between the Chinese government and the 61st Army is inevitable. Internal strife will occur between them." At that time, my Imperial Japanese Army suddenly launched an attack, hum, no matter it is the Chinese Zheng Fu Army or the 61st Army, they will all die!" General Shou of the temple laughed wildly.

"Your Excellency, not only that, but we can also act together with the Mongolian Army. According to the information collected by the special high-tech intelligence agency. In order to defend Taiyuan, Yan Xishan in the Second World War Zone in China transferred all the main forces of Suiyuan Province to the south. Shanxi, including the main force of the Seventh Chinese Army of Suiyuan Province Chairman Fu Zuoyi, is now empty of troops in Guisui, Baotou and other places. Only three local security brigades are maintaining local order. As long as we wipe out or severely injure Chen Feng's 61st Army, or They held back the main force, and with the strength of the garrison in Mongolia, they could take Guisui, Baotou and other important towns in northern Saibei in a short time, and control the beginning and end of the Pingsui Railway." Lieutenant General Naozaburo Kobe added.

"Yo Xi, the garrison in Mongolia has just suffered heavy losses, and its strength has not yet recovered. In order to ensure the smooth implementation of this combat plan, we must request the base camp to replenish the garrison in Mongolia as soon as possible. And in 20 days it will be the Lunar New Year in China , the people in China would not have thought that we would launch a full-scale attack on this day, so we still have 20 days to prepare. I will trouble Mr. Gangbu to coordinate with the special high-tech side. I will handle other things personally. This time We must completely wipe out Chen Feng, the hateful Chinese, and the 61st Army, the hateful Chinese army, so as to comfort the heroes of the empire who died at their hands! Please!" General Toshida said excitedly.

"Hay!"

The Japanese army kept plotting, but Chen Feng didn't focus on dealing with the Japanese himself. This is a kind of sadness.Facing Lao Jiang's pressing approach every step of the way, Chen Feng had no choice but to see what he could do.

On January 1, Chen Feng convened a meeting of officers above the division in Datong, and decided to draw elites from the 11st, 101nd, and 222th Divisions of the Communist Party of China to go deep into enemy-occupied areas with battalions and companies as units to carry out guerrilla activities.

After research, it was decided that a total of 61 battalions of elite troops were drawn from the three main divisions of the 15st Army and sneaked into Rehe, Jidong, Jizhong, and Chanan respectively to organize resistance forces behind enemy lines.

On the one hand, this can reduce Lao Jiang's vigilance, on the other hand, it will try to contain the Japanese army so that it cannot concentrate on attacking the Kuomintang-controlled area.

At the same time, more troops of the 61st Army changed from bright to dark, except for the three Jingbei brigades of Xinghe, Jining, and Taolin.The cavalry group and the cavalry units of the divisions of the 61st Army also quietly disappeared from the battle order of the 61st Army, while the internal briefing emphasized that the cavalry units suffered heavy losses in the battle with the Japanese Army and had to cancel the establishment.

After these adjustments, although the 61st Army still has three infantry divisions, an air defense brigade, a teaching brigade, and a guard regiment on the surface, in fact the total strength has shrunk greatly.In addition to the 5 battalions of infantry being transferred from each of the three infantry divisions, a cavalry regiment was also transferred away. In addition to the thousands of combat backbones transferred by the special operations division, the total strength of each infantry division is now less than one There are 8000 people.
