Anti-Japanese heroic righteousness

On the hillside less than one mile outside the city, Mr. Lin, the commander of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army, had a panoramic view of the scene in front of him. When he put down the binoculars, tears were streaming down his face.

He didn't agree with Bai Chongxi's tactics of charging in groups, but he had to admire the courage of the soldiers of the Guangxi Seventh Army. They were real fighters and worthy of the title of "Seventh Steel Army".

"Rush in, rush in, look, Mr. Lin!" Chief of Staff Zhou at the side suddenly shouted.

Mr. Lin hurriedly raised the binoculars in his hand, and saw the soldiers of the national army in front rushing in from the gap in the collapsed city wall, and the follow-up troops continued to flow in. The shocking scene made people feel emotional.

"At least half of the casualties in this battle of the Seventh Army have been lost?" Putting down the binoculars, President Lin murmured.

"But they also took Xinyang, it was worth it!" Chief of Staff Zhou said.

As long as the first line of defense of the city wall is broken, there will be basically no suspense in the following street battles. The Japanese army's combat effectiveness is not bad, but the Japanese army suffered a lot of casualties on the defense line after several consecutive days of attack, and suffered a few days of continuous attacks The indiscriminate bombing will definitely damage the fighting power and fighting will, not to mention the tens of thousands of puppet troops in the city. They are "heroic" if they don't collapse at the first touch. , the No.20 Second Army can spare troops to assist in the cleaning of the urban area, and Xinyang City has changed hands.

Mr. Lin didn't answer Chief of Staff Zhou's words, he took out his pocket watch and looked at it, and said: "It's twelve o'clock, we should leave soon."

"Just leave? What if Bai Chongxi really orders us to join the battle?" Chief of Staff Zhou said.

"If he has this plan, he will organize us into the main attacking force. Now that the city is broken and victory is in sight, is it strange that Bai Chongxi will give us a chance to pick peaches?"

"Hehe, yes, then let's go, taking advantage of the enemy's chaos, it may be easier for us to pass through the enemy's defense line?"

"Well, Chief of Staff, give an order. Order the troops to advance eastward at full speed. They must pass through the enemy's defense line before dawn. Be careful not to expose the target yet."

"Yes, Mr. Lin!"

??

At five o'clock in the morning, Huangshan, the headquarters of the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army.

The head of the division, Itagaki Seishiro, has become an ant on a hot pot, turning around in a hurry, and the sweat bead on his forehead is as big as a bean, rolling down.

In less than ten hours, Mount Huangshan had already been pierced by the national army. Itagaki Seishiro didn't know when the national army would be so good at street fighting. They are divided and surrounded into countless small pieces.

The telegrams received by the entire headquarters were either asking for help or farewell telegrams. The squadron’s collective jade broken, the brigade’s collective jade broken, and even the terrorist incident of the unit’s collective jade broken just now. Seishiro Itagaki clearly realized that there was no possibility for Huangshan to hold on No, he can't wait for reinforcements from all walks of life.

"Itagaki-kun, give an order. If you don't withdraw, it will be too late. In Chinese terms, if you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about no firewood, Mr. Itagaki!" Chief of Staff Nishimura Junzheng earnestly said.

"Hachishiro!" Seishiro Itagaki pulled out his command saber, pointing the tip at Junmasa Nishimura's throat, "If you retreat again, I will kill you with one blow, the imperial army is invincible, and the imperial army will never surrender! "

Nishimura Shunzheng's throat rolled, but he didn't seem to be intimidated. He calmly took out a telegram from his pocket and continued, "I sent the situation of the Huangshan battle to the Kwantung Army Deputy Chief of Staff Shi Yuan an hour ago. Major General Wan Er, this is his call back."

Hearing Ishihara Waner's name, the muscles on Itagaki Seishiro's face twitched, his ferocious expression slowly subsided, he put the command knife back into the scabbard, silently accepted the message in Nishimura Junsei's hand, glanced it hastily, Immediately, it was like a frost-beaten eggplant-it was gone.

Ishihara Wanji is Seishiro Itagaki's best friend. There has been a saying in the Japanese army that "Itagaki's courage is Ishihara's wisdom". For his strategic vision and strategy, Itagaki Seishiro never doubted it.

Speaking of this, I have to mention the legendary figure of the Japanese army. In the future battles, he will become Jiang Haoran's formidable enemy.

The "September 1th Incident" was planned by Wanji Ishihara and implemented by him and Seishiro Itagaki. Without the support of the Japanese government and the Ministry of War, the ratio of troops was 25 to [-]. Jun, Zhang Shaoshuai himself and the national government's response.Manchukuo was successfully planned, and a solid first step was taken for Japan's war of aggression.

Later, he also proposed that Japan's national policy should be to become the leader of East Asia, and for this reason, it must have the strength to eliminate the oppression of the Soviet Union, the United States and Britain.While enriching the armaments capable of confronting the Soviet Union, the United States and Britain, especially the aviation force, we should do a good job of stabilizing Manchukuo and North China and completing the basic work of preparing for a protracted war.After completing the enrichment of armaments and preparations for a protracted war, the first thing to do was to force the Soviet Union to give up its plan to attack the Far East as soon as possible.During this period, he worked hard to maintain a good relationship with the United States. After the Soviet Union surrendered, he established a good relationship with it, expelled the British power from East Asia, and liberated the nations of East Asia.

From today's point of view, Ishihara's strategy is undoubtedly brilliant, and it is also the most dangerous for China, because this strategy accurately grasps the psychology of all parties in conflict. The main energy of the Soviet Union is in Europe, and it seeks stability in the Far East. Its main interests are in the south, and it is happy to see someone blocking the Soviet Union in the northeast.And Chiang Kai-chung was more interested in eradicating dissidents than dealing with the Yan'an army. The Northeast was not his territory in the first place, and giving up the Northeast was tantamount to killing the Northeast Army. This was exactly what he dreamed of.So he will not think about taking back the Northeast.This will allow Japan to have a relatively stable environment and a longer period of time to operate the Northeast, making it a rear base for a full-scale invasion of China in the future.

And his China strategy is mainly to stabilize Manchukuo and North China, complete the preparations for a protracted war, and oppose the expansion of the war.The core is to provoke the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in the northwest, build Manchukuo at the same time, consolidate North China, block the Russians from going south, and then infiltrate into Southeast Asia, get the oil in Southeast Asia, and at the same time squeeze the British away, and strive to extend their hands to the Dutch East. India, ensure that strategic materials such as oil and rubber are sufficient, and then have a final decisive battle with the United States.

Seeing this, is there a kind of creepy feeling.If the Japanese really follow this path, the "July 1937th Incident" may be delayed for many years, and China at that time will never be much stronger than in 1937, and Japan's power will definitely be stronger than in [-]. Knowing that the Northeast is much richer than Japan, what will be the outcome of China's War of Resistance?
