Chapter 1311 Okamura Promotion
Yokoyama talked eloquently, but Okamura Neiji just smiled and said nothing.Isamu Yokoyama boasted for a while, feeling quite bored, and he was also a little tired-Yokoyama Isamu's recent performance is not a true reflection of his personality.He and Neiji Okamura actually have a lot in common. In terms of appearance, both of them wear a pair of glasses. They seem to be gentle, but in fact they are treacherous to the bone.In addition, in terms of their positions on China, the two have similar strategic thinking. They both advocate using China to control China and like to develop puppet troops wantonly.Of course, Okamura Ningji behaved a little abnormally because he was too eager to make meritorious service during the Battle of Madang. As a result, Ouyang Yun seized the opportunity and not only turned Anqing, the frontier base of the Japanese aviation army, into a mess, but also Almost wiped out the 106th and 112th divisions.

Yokoyama was a well-known wise general in the Kwantung Army, and the reason why he is acting like a reckless man now should have a deep intention.It's just that he challenged Okamura frequently like a bull in heat, but Okamura seemed to be castrated and refused to accept the challenge, and there was nothing he could do about it.Every time he provoked, it was nothing more than asking himself to be angry at the end.

Yokoyama stopped talking, Okamura Ningji spoke, he smiled and said: "Yokoyama-kun, is your mouth dry? Then drink some tea to moisten your throat, and I will call Major General Tokugawa .”

After finishing speaking, he picked up the phone, called the headquarters of the First Aviation Corps, found Tokugawa Hotoshi, and exchanged some pleasantries, he asked: "Tokugawa-kun, have the reconnaissance planes found a large army of Xuebing Army entering Jiangxi recently? "

"No. However, I believe that the Xuebing Army must have entered Jiangxi on a large scale. Your Excellency Okamura, you know that the military uniforms of the Xuebing Army are very good at camouflaging, and our reconnaissance planes dare not fly too low, so the reconnaissance It is normal for the aircraft to fail to detect the target."

"Then, how did you judge that the army of students has entered Jiangxi?" Okamura said, his face became serious.Yokoyama Yong, who was listening in, finally calmed down and became concentrated.

"We were shot down by a reconnaissance plane five days ago. Afterwards, we found the wreckage of the fighter plane, which was shot down by anti-aircraft fire when we found it. Your Excellency, you should know what this means."

Ningji Okamura naturally understood.If the size of the troops does not reach a certain level, weapons such as anti-aircraft artillery will not appear at all.Moreover, the cadet army even brought out anti-aircraft artillery. Does that mean that they will repeat the Battle of Madang again and have a decisive battle with the 11th Army?

"Thank you, Tokugawa-kun. Please continue to send reconnaissance planes. Although there will be some danger, it is very important for our 11th Army's next move. Please!"

"Hay! You are too polite, this is what we should do. I have been looking forward to avenging Anqing for a long time!"

After hanging up the phone, Neiji Okamura looked at Yokoyama and said, "Mr. Yokoyama, you heard it too. This time the ones entering Jiangxi may be the main force of the Xuebing Army. Before the confrontation between Madang and the Xuebing Army, I and you The mood should be the same now, very unconvinced, I always feel that no matter how strong the student army is, it is still a Chinese army, and as a warlord, can they be stronger than the Central Army of the Nationalist Government? But—” With a wry smile and shaking his head, he He continued: "You know everything that happened afterwards, we were actually defeated, and we lost more than two divisions—"

Neiji Okamura and Isamu Yokoyama have been in contact for a long time, although they have always treated him very politely and even humbly, but they have never been so open-hearted like today.Ordinarily, Yokoyama Isamu should be very moved, and finally he was influenced.This is not the case. Yokoyama still looked extremely contemptuous of Okamura, and said: "Your Excellency Okamura, you are also a well-known military general in the Japanese Empire. How can you be so unambitious? Don't worry, although I urgently want to fight Ouyang Yun and destroy his myth of invincibility, but I will obey the orders of the command headquarters. Well, if you have a decision, please call me, I have to go back and cheer up my subordinates—— The enemy of destiny has appeared, we really have to prepare well..." In the last words, Isamu Yokoyama seemed to be talking to himself, and this made Okamura's face finally darken.

Seeing Yokoyama leave with his hands behind his back, he gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "Although often only Chinese people would use foreign enemies to eliminate competitors, but this time, for the future of the empire, I must do the same. Yokoyama Yong Since you are eager to fight Ouyang Yun, then simply use Jiangxi as the front line to attack the Xuebing army."

That night, a telegram was sent from Madang across the ocean to Tokyo.Just as Yokoyama was unconvinced by Okamura Neiji, Okamura Neiji was also unconvinced by Ten Junroku.Regarding the decisive battle with the Xuebing Army in Jiangxi, he did not ask and report to his immediate superior Ten Shunroku, but directly contacted the Minister of Army Seishiro Sakagaki.

Two days later, Isamu Yokoyama received the desired reply.Seishiro Sakagaki sent a telegram to the headquarters of the China Expeditionary Army, the headquarters of the South China Front Army, and the headquarters of the 11th Army, informing of a resolution passed by the base camp yesterday: the main force of the navy and army will be concentrated in the near future. The cadet army carried out a devastating blow.Since the 11th Army is fighting the Xuebing Army in Jiangxi, it will be the vanguard of this combat operation. Their task is not only to drive the Xuebing Army back to Guangzhou, but also to capture the last Fujian army. Yingtan and Shangrao, which were lost in the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Battle, cut off the possible northward retreat of the Xuebing Army.At the end of the telegram, a promotion order was attached, saying that after discussion, the military department decided to promote Ningji Okamura, the commander of the 11th Army, to general.

On the day he received this telegram, Neiji Okamura issued an order to Shigetaro Kanae to let the rest of the 33rd Division stick to Gao'an City and give up the breakout plan. Ask them to support Gan Yan's 33rd Division to guard Gao'an.Then, he summoned Sotake Yamamuro, the head of the 11th Division, Jingcun Nakajima, and Isamu Yokoyama, the heads of the 106th Division, to assign specific combat tasks while conveying the order from the base camp.

Just when Okamura Ningji was sharpening his knife and preparing to fight, Yu Jishi and Ouyang Yun got in touch with the Chinese side.He drove to the nearest town, and with the help of the local fox pupil, he made a call with Ouyang Yun.Yu Jishi, Xue Yue, including Luo Zhuoying, at first they all thought that the Xuebing Army was the main force entering Jiangxi, so although they were surprised that they could kill a devil major general with a single shot, they were not too surprised.Among the three, Xue Yue and Yu Jishi have had in-depth contact with Ouyang Yun, and have personally seen all kinds of extraordinary things in the Xuebing Army, so they reacted in this way.However, when Yu Jishi learned from Ouyang Yun that the army of apprentices entering northern Jiangxi was just a guerrilla force under his command, he was irritated.

"Not a regular army?"

"No."

"It's unreasonable! Brother Ouyang, you are so unkind. Do you know how much we sacrificed to win Gao'an? Well, we have worked so hard to maim the kid himself, and we are about to reap the harvest. You come out Picked up the fruit."

Yu Jishi used accusatory words in these words, but his tone was ridiculed.

Ouyang Yun immediately burst out laughing.He said truthfully: "Old brother, you really can't blame me for this matter. Because, the commander-in-chief of this combat operation is Chu Tiange. Huh? Many of Commander Chu's subordinates were originally from the Northeast and North China regions. Many of the volunteers who volunteered to fight against Japan have bad habits—could it be that someone who is not open-eyed offended you or Chief Xue?"

"No, no. I really didn't come to you to ask questions..." Yu Jishi told the battle plan of the Ninth War Zone. After listening to it, Ouyang Yun thought about it and replied: "Brother, I don't think there is any problem." However, Commander Chu Tiange Chu is currently in charge in Jiangxi. I have to talk to him first before I can give you a final answer. I will contact him as soon as possible, and I think I can send a letter tomorrow. What do you think? "

"Okay, I'll take it and wait for the good news!"

Ouyang Yun contacted Chu Tiange that day, and when Chu Tiange heard that the Central Army was willing to join forces with him, he naturally had no objection.He only raised one point: brother, we are a guerrilla force with limited strength and a large area to take into account. We can't be the main force, especially the main force that needs a lot of cannon fodder! "

The communication technology of the Xuebing Army has made new progress. Now it is possible to realize medium and long-distance calls through the construction of ground base stations, and with walkie-talkies, as long as they are within the signal coverage of the base station, they can realize communication between two points. Dialogue, and this will undoubtedly be of great benefit to improving the command system of the Xuebing Army.

A certain person in Chongqing was too ruthless, and united all the anti-Japanese forces around under the banner of the whole people's resistance to Japan, but he favored one person and wanted his troops to be the main force, but in fact he let the other party be cannon fodder .As a result, in the anti-Japanese war, the local warlords fought less and less, and the central army fought more and more. Although this is a good thing from the overall situation, it did not happen to me.This Xue Yue is the confidant of the Chongqing one, and Chu Tiange's worry is justified.It's just that he didn't want to think that his big brother was a master who was more stingy than himself and held grudges. He was always vengeful, and he was super protective. How could he let his brothers jump into it knowing that there was a fire pit in front of him?

Ouyang Yun laughed at that time: "We are naturally inappropriate as the main force. The division of labor has been clarified. You just bet on the devil's retreat and delay the speed of his reinforcements. Tiange, it sounds difficult, but as long as you don't want to It's not too difficult to gamble to death all at once. Besides, if you really can't hold on, don't you still have Tielin Fei? Well, under the condition of ensuring your own safety, try to kill as many devils as possible. In addition, if When the friendly army is in danger, if you can reach out, you should try to reach out, after all, everyone is fighting against Japan."

"Yes!"
