Anti-Japanese blood sacrifice mountains and rivers

[Volume 57] Chapter 520: Chapter 260 Five Battle of Wuhan Battle of Elite Soldiers (1)

------------

Matsuura Junrokuro, who is good at precise tactics, led his division to act alone along the north bank of the Yangtze River. In June, he defeated Xu Yuanquan's army and occupied Hefei. In July, he defeated the four armies of Li Pinxian's army and occupied Huangmei and Guangji. The inside and outside of the division attacked and defeated Li Yannian's army and occupied the fortress of Tianjia Town.It broke open the last gate in Wuhan, and was called the number one fighting force of the Japanese division by Neiji Okamura.

It can be said that the Sixth Division of the Japanese Army under the command of Junrokuro Matsuura has become a strong enemy of the Chinese Army, and the government is also closely watching the movements of the Sixth Division of the Japanese Army. The Tenth Army and the No.70 Fourth Army were the main force, and they attacked the Sixth Division of the Japanese Army.

Gao Fei remembered that the historical imam battle in Wuhan lasted four and a half months, and ended when the squadron voluntarily withdrew from Wuhan.As far as the campaign is concerned, the Japanese army won the victory by occupying the three towns of Wuhan and controlling the heartland of China.Anti-Japanese Blood Sacrifice Mountains and Rivers 52065

But in terms of strategy, Japan failed to realize its strategic intention. The Japanese base camp believed that as long as they captured Hankou and Guangzhou, they could dominate China. Therefore, the Japanese Imperial Council decided to launch the Battle of Wuhan and quickly captured Wuhan to force the Chinese government to surrender.

For this reason, it is also stipulated to concentrate national power in order to achieve the goal of the war and end the war against China within this year. However, the Chinese government did not succumb to the fall of Wuhan and Guangzhou, nor did Japan’s war of aggression against China result from the Japanese occupation of Wuhan, ended in Guangzhou.After the fall of Wuhan, the Chinese government stated that temporary changes in advance and retreat must not shake China's determination to resist the war, and the gains and losses of any city must not affect the overall situation of the war of resistance!It means that we will be more mournful, more persevering, more down-to-earth, more assiduous, and more courageous, and strive for a comprehensive and protracted war of resistance.

In the rear area already occupied by the Japanese army, a large number of anti-Japanese people's armed forces grew up, and large areas of the country were recovered.In the words of the Japanese army itself, the “so-called security restoration area occupied by the Japanese army is actually limited to within a few kilometers on both sides of the main communication line. Therefore, it can be said that the Battle of Wuhan not only caused the Japanese army another strategic defeat, but also became a The turning point of Japan's transition from strategic offensive to strategic conservative. Japan is an island country with a lack of strategic materials and mainly relies on imports. At that time, Japan's economic strength was not very strong.

Gao Fei remembered that according to the records of the Japanese military history, during the July 13th Incident, Japan’s “gold reserves, including reserves for issuing banknotes, were only 5000 billion yen.” In fact, it is its gold reserve that is the constraint. It means that Japan's currency reserve has limited this war from the very beginning.

Japan launched the war, but it did everything possible to "seek an early settlement". In order to maintain the war of aggression against China, "the total amount of military supplies imported from overseas in Showa 12 reached 6000 million yen." Almost all of this money came from the United States to Japan. In order to carry out the Wuhan battle, the Japanese even "recovered the rifles used by the school coaches" to equip the expanded army.Moreover, due to the continuous increase in the number of soldiers, domestic labor, food, and energy are all in short supply.After the Battle of Wuhan, Japan’s military expenditures reached 61.56 billion yen, far exceeding Japan’s national reserves. As a result, “the poverty of Japan’s national power has become apparent” and it has lost the ability to fully guarantee the supply of military supplies to the army. Aggravated the pain and pressure of the head of the Central Command".

After the Battle of Wuhan, the Japanese army's establishment, equipment, and combat effectiveness were generally lower than before the battle. This is why Japan had to change its political and military strategy toward China, trying to implement "use China to control China" and "use China to fight against China." An important reason for raising wars.

In history, the Sixth Division under the command of Junrokuro Matsuura was almost invincible. They only had the power of passive defense, but no counterattack!And Gao Fei rescued 70 to [-] veterans with rich combat experience in Xiaguan, Nanjing. These veterans can quickly replenish the troops, especially on the basis of the large amount of military aid provided by the Soviet Union, the combat effectiveness of the troops has formed very So fast, so Chiang Kai-shek was able to fully realize the Soviet Union, and the Fifth Army, the Eighth Army, and the No.[-] Fourth Army under the jurisdiction of the [-]th Mechanized Division mainly fought against the Sixth Division of the Japanese Army Junrokuro Matsuura.

The Sixth Division massacred tens of thousands of Chinese people and wounded soldiers in Xiaguan, Nanjing. The officers and soldiers of the 11st Infantry Division of Feng Village on the outskirts of Tianjia Town blocked the Japanese Army. Under the command of the division commander Wu Chengguo, they directly met the Japanese 30th Division. Brigade Major General Katsuji Imamura and Infantry No.[-] Sixth Brigade Major General Ushido Man can be said to be two out-and-out fierce generals.

This is the chief culprit army that participated in the Nanjing Xiaguan Massacre that made hundreds of millions of Chinese people humiliated and humiliated by future generations!The No. 40 Fifth Infantry Regiment under the division only killed the corpses of the Chinese Communists in Xiaguan, covering a two-kilometer, 50-meter-wide corpse belt. In the Nanjing Massacre, the Sixth Division of the five hundred men beheaded only three people!Because of the Shimonoseki massacre, Tokutaro Sakai, the former head of the No.11 Brigade of the Infantry, was dismissed from his post along with his head, Hisao Tani, and transferred to the reserve.

Since the Meiji Restoration period, the Japanese Empire has started to establish a unified army for Japan, and issued a conscription order to divide the country into six military districts, responsible for conscription and local garrison.With the continuous expansion of its ambitions, Japan began to reorganize the towns and platforms into army divisions. In 1888, the Sixth Division of the Army was established in Kumamoto.From the Sino-Japanese War of [-] to the invasion of the three northeastern provinces and the attack on Rehe, the iron hooves of the Sixth Division have set foot on Chinese soil five times. The Sixth Division can be called the most tenacious force of the Japanese army.

Therefore, the Sixth Division, which was in charge of mobile guerrilla warfare, became the enemy of the National Defense Forces in the Wuhan Defense War. Its division commander, Matsuura Junrokuro, had a very keen tactical awareness, and his tactical literacy was second to none among Japanese generals. Can match outside, can be called Japan's number one tactician!It is generally called together with Ishihara Waner!

That's why Okamura Neiji gave Matsuura Junrokuro the command power independent of the Front Army and the No.11 Army, making the Sixth Division a sharp blade that Matsuura Junrokuro can wield as he pleases!Ning Okamura's second priority is to use a tactical force to disrupt the strategic force deployed by the squadron in Wuhan!
