From to 1935 2020

Even though the army red deer below had shrunk the specific figures reported to the military department and Yongren for reasons of saving face, there was even a shameless Showa staff officer who patted his head and handed in such a "battle summary" report , but the upper-level devils and high-ranking officials still know that Japan has really fought two major defeats in North Manchuria and North China at the same time.

——It is really difficult to pretend to be blind.That Li Runshi is different from any Chinese opponent the Locust Kingdom has encountered.What this guy loves most is to publicly release the prisoners of war in the Locust Kingdom under the banner of "humanitarianism".The total number of prisoners of war released twice before and after exceeded 5000.

No matter how hard-talked the people in the military department were, they tried to hide their ears and steal their bells, but more than 5000 Japanese prisoners of war with missing arms or legs, seriously injured or disabled were counted one by one by "foreign reporters" and then taken away by ship in Tianjin.

If there were only a few hundred prisoners of war, the Japanese military could of course treat them as "non-nationals" and directly force them to have their stomachs cut open. There are more than 5000 problems at this time.What makes the military feel hematemesis is that when the prisoners of war were released, Li Yunshi also used the international media to make a big hype about "the Japanese army forced to kill the captured Japanese soldiers", which attracted great attention from the media in Britain, France, the United States and other countries. The international image plummeted.

In the past five days, in addition to scrambling to deal with a series of variables caused by the big defeat on the front line, Japan's upper echelons have also focused on things: resuming the battle and finding the culprit of the defeat (the blame man).

The "reconciliation after the defeat" was presided over by the first chief of operations Okamura Ningji, who was ordered by Emperor Yongren. He only worked for one day, but couldn't continue.

The specific scenes are as follows.

As long as the Showa staff members are not finished shooting arrows and drawing targets, they are willing to see the facts clearly. In fact, the organization is very clear-especially when investigating the responsibility for the defeat and finding the blamed man, each of them is clearer than anyone else.

"Before the start of the war, Lucia's threat was actually very obvious. Although the Imperial Kingdom attached great importance to it and hoarded a large number of troops in Beiman, we did not expect that the tanks assembled and cooperated with the aircraft to form an armored army to launch an offensive. The power is so amazing. .In addition, the power of the 37mm anti-aircraft guns currently in service in the Empire is disappointing..."

The disastrous defeat in the Battle of Northern Manchuria is due to the following: underestimating the enemy, not expecting the military revolution triggered by the "tank army", and the "inferior anti-aircraft guns" provided by the ordnance department. The 37 anti-aircraft artillery is an imitation of the same product from Germany. The reason for its lack of power is the shell: there are no professional armor-piercing shells. During this period, the Japanese army required that all armor-piercing shells must also have blasting capabilities, so they only had armor-piercing blasting shells.

The question is: How many grams of explosives can a small 37mm gun pack in an armor-piercing blasting bomb?Later, the devils made armor-piercing bombs, in order to save money, they didn't even wear quilt caps.

The final conclusion of the army horse dung is: everything is caused by the navy, the reason is that the military expenses are taken up by the navy, the army has no money, and can only use garbage anti-aircraft guns and garbage tanks and the blood of the "iron armored monster" of the Red Army Fight, "Chizhi's equipment is better than ours."

As for the disastrous defeat in the Battle of Pingjin on the North China battlefield, in fact, before the war, there was no need for a review, and the Showa staff knew it well.

It has long been pointed out that the "Southern Strike" plan advocated by the military has a huge flaw: more than [-] troops stationed in Pingjin and Tianjin are isolated from the main force, with a distance of nearly [-] kilometers. The army is completely an island army.Once the "Southern Advance" plan is launched, the thousands of defenders in Nanyuan will inevitably be besieged by hundreds of thousands of Red Army and [-]th Army immediately.

Everyone knows that there is a big problem with this arrangement, and everyone knows that it is at stake, but after the Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese have developed a habit of "refusing to vomit after eating" on China's issues for many years, which made the upper echelons reluctant to give up the South China Sea. Yuan, the "nail" nailed into Pingjin.

If the opponent is Song Zheyuan's dough, or Chang Jintang, the Japanese military's approach is really correct, neither of these two guys has much courage to provoke the Japanese army.Even for Song Zheyuan, after the July 29th Incident in history, the two families fought. In the first few days, the Japanese garrisons in Fengtai and Nanyuan were severely understrength and faced the threat of being besieged by the 29th Army.Then the Japanese pretended to negotiate and dragged on for four or five days. When the reinforcements went south, they immediately turned their backs and attacked, attacking inside and outside, and the [-]th Army was defeated.

However, what they met this time was Li Runshi who "does not talk about martial arts".Compared with the Qing Dynasty where gold and jade were ruined outside, Zhang Xiaoliu with embroidered pillows and straw cores, Chang Kaishen who looks like a dragon but is actually a maggot, Li Runshi and his Red Army are the most terrifying opponents the Japanese have encountered since the Sino-Japanese War .

This guy who doesn't act according to the script, refuses to plagiarize, and refuses to follow routines, he doesn't talk too much, the imperial army hasn't provoked your Red Army yet, yet on a dark and stormy night, he took the initiative to attack again (the last time was Bailing Temple) Hit the sap of the locust army...

The second conclusion of the Showa staff of the military department reflecting on the defeat is that they underestimated Li Runshi's "enthusiasm for the war of resistance."

Neiji Okamura, who presided over the review of the defeat, looked at the Showa staff below who understood but were pretending to be stupid to "review", looking for irrelevant "little details" to talk nonsense. After holding back for half a morning, he finally Unable to bear it any longer, he slammed the table hard and slammed the door.

He's had enough of these "stupid and pretending to be smart" horse shit.

At noon that day, he went to rebuild the Army University, where he met his friend Toshishiro Obata, the last "Feather Crow".

"The strategy wins because it is correct, and the tactics are correct because it wins. Okamura-kun, the Battle of Tongzhou, from the first day of the war, no, to be precise, those greedy horse dung in the military department refused to withdraw early When we were stationed in Nanyuan, we had already lost. From the beginning to the end, the entire imperial army was unconsciously being danced by Li Runshi like a monkey, step by step, without missing a beat. Jump into the big hole he dug!"

Toshishiro Obata, the last "smart and lazy" feather crow, immediately told the key point after seeing Okamura.

Neiji Okamura snorted, "Everyone has been tricked by Li Runshi from beginning to end, and he has seen through the strategy of the military department. They also realized later that it is too embarrassing to say it and admit it. So the whole morning , everyone is pretending to be stupid."

"Our military layout in North China before the war was extremely stupid even to laymen. But why did we make such a stupid plan?"

Toshishiro Obata glanced at Ningro Okamura across the way, with a look of disdain in his eyes, which made Ningji Okamura feel uncomfortable all over - he is the head of the first combat department, and he can't run away with this pot.

Neiji Okamura defended himself: "I didn't do that, it was done by the red deer of the Kwantung Army in Northern Manchuria! I'm already making amends. It's my opinion that Kiyoshi Kazuki stood still in front of the army. In fact, I have long I have seen through Li Runshi's trick!"

"You have seen through Li Runshi's tricks, but Li Runshi has seen through our Great Japanese Empire, our military headquarters, and even our arrogance, arrogance, and arrogance..."

Toshishiro Obata sighed and said, "He knows, what's the use of you and me seeing through it? Just like what Huang Ke said, it's not you and I who saw through Li Runshi's plan that decide Japan's national policy." Such a minority is the most numerous, the craziest, the most arrogant, and also the most stupid group of people!"

At the end, Toshishiro Obata laughed so loudly that he burst into tears.

"Mr. Okamura, nibbling away at China is a dream, Man Meng is also a dream, it's time to wake up!"

Neiji Okamura stood up with his hands on the table, his body leaned forward, and his lowered head almost hit Toshishiro Obata's forehead. He said unwillingly: "This is not a dream! For this day, you also know that the empire is doing this for this goal. How much did you pay for it over the years!"

"Of course I know. But the times have changed now! It's like what Xiyuan Temple said, Li Runshi, you and him have fought against him through the Battle of Pingjin. You have also experienced how terrifying he is now. He is not a waste like Chang Kaishen or Zhang Xueliang, he is Zhu Hongwu, a hero like Li Shimin, and what's worse, he is already full-fledged, and with the victory in the battle of Pingjin, he has gathered the luck of the whole of China. ..."

When referring to China, Toshishiro Obata no longer called it "China", but used the word "China".

Toshishiro Obata pointed to the southwest.

"Now in China, young people in the whole South China, to be precise, young students, are all flocking to the north in large numbers and gathered under Li Runshi's command! Just like what he wrote in his own book, a single spark, It has already started a prairie fire, and the trickle has become a great river!"

Toshishiro Obata showed a serious expression, and said sternly: "Before and after the Battle of Bailing Temple, Lord Xiyuan Temple recruited me and advised me to go out of the mountain. Do you know why I refused?"

Toshishiro Obata opened the drawer of the desk and threw all the piles of books inside onto the desk—all of Li Runshi's intelligence materials, and even some of his "writings" that were hard to find in China.

"Today's Li Runshi, he has everything!"

"He has foreign aid, and the full support of Soviet Russia. He has internal resources, and the entire North China is under his control. He also has a strong army that has traveled 2 miles without being separated as the backbone! This time, the empire fell into The three divisions in his trap finally escaped back to more than [-] people. It was very lucky. It was because he expanded his army too fast, and there were too many new recruits in the army and insufficient training. There are hundreds of thousands of veterans who climbed out of the dead, and with a little training, they will become elite soldiers..."

Okamura Neiji put on a dark face, and said loudly: "That's why we have to kill him now before he grows up! I have read these books of yours, and of course I know how terrible Li Runshi and the Communist Party are. It is precisely because I know they are scary that I have to kill them early..."

Toshishiro Obata looked at Neiji Okamura, and shook his head with a wry smile: "Mr. Okamura, like those people in the military department, you are greedy for profit, and you still refuse to admit the reality!"

Toshishiro Obata continued to break the key points:

"At the same time as enemies with Lucia and Chizhi, there is no hope of winning! Now Lucia, their strategic situation in Europe is not generally good. Stalin obviously wants to support Chizhi, and join forces with Li Yunshi once and for all address the threats to the east."

Neiji Okamura was silent for a while, and then said: "With Lucia interfering in the north, and the Empire opening up a second battlefield in North China, we will indeed fall into this terrible quagmire...but China is huge... ..."

"Are you going to dream in another place?"

"How can it be so easy for people who are on the gambling table to get off?"

Neiji Okamura almost forced his voice out of his teeth. He raised his head while talking, and looked at the map of China behind Toshiro Obata. What he could see was the vast area south of the Yangtze River.

Toshishiro Obata warned: "If you do this, you will add more opponents to the empire, and both Britain and France will be wary of us! Do you think the empire doesn't have enough enemies?"

"But the Americans will support us! The defense map of the Jiangyin Fortress was deliberately sold to us by the Americans!" (This is a historical fact, including the Raffles defense line)

"The Americans are just using us to smash the old system of Britain and France in China with the help of the empire. Their support is very limited."

"In this world, isn't everyone using each other? Lucia is using the Red Army to deal with us, the Americans are supporting Hitler to deal with Britain and France, and Britain and France are supporting us in dealing with the Red Army! Many years ago, they also united with us, first defeating Tsarist Russia, Then fight against the United States... It is not terrible to be used by others, but the most terrible thing is that it is worthless to be used!"

Toshishiro Obata looked at the madness in Neiji Okamura's eyes unconsciously, but he knew in his heart that this old friend, who seemed sober, had already been deeply involved in gambling and couldn't extricate himself.Now he is actually not as clear-headed as the "thick-skinned Ishihara" on China's issues.

"It seems that the southward advance is inevitable... Are you planning to use Shanhaiguan as the boundary and eastern Hebei as the buffer zone, retreat with all your strength to protect the northeast, and then send troops to the south of the Yangtze River?"

"It's the north and south of the Yangtze River! It's not enough to eat only the south of the Yangtze River, but both the north of Jiangsu and Shandong!"

Toshishiro Obata was taken aback, his eyes widened.

"You guys are crazy! The battlefield is so big? How is this different from directly attacking North China and Shanxi and falling into the quagmire dug by Li Runshi?"

"There is no difference! But we can't stop now!"

Okamura Ningji said with a dark face: "March and April, Kansai and Kanto, there have been rice disturbances several times! The news of the imperial army's disastrous defeat in Pingjin was suppressed in China, but Li Runshi deliberately released the wounded and prisoners of war in a high-profile way. It has been made known to the whole world, and there is no way to hide it..."

Speaking of this, Neiji Okamura stared into Toshishiro Obata's eyes and said: "Actually, I can't hide it anymore. I know that Lu Shi and Lu Da, those non-commissioned officers who are in school, have already received the news of the defeat, and now they are connecting privately. , is preparing to go to the National Assembly Hall to make trouble!"

Toshishiro Obata snorted disdainfully: "It's enough to let Prime Minister Konoe resign and apologize! Anyway, he is the best at doing this."

"Will this solve the problem? You know it won't work!"

Neiji Okamura snorted with a wry smile: "Just like what the Chinese named Huang Ke said in the book, Japan is sick, and it was not cured during the Meiji Emperor.....we have to rely on non-stop Only by sucking blood in foreign wars can we prolong our lives! Once we stop attacking, war, and blood sucking, the internal pressure will blow back, and we will fall ourselves.”

Okamura Ningji said seriously: "This time the most terrible situation has appeared. We lost the battle in Pingjin, but we didn't get anything..."

Proofread tomorrow morning, go to bed first.

-------------------- Chapter 235 Is Chang Kaishen going to be a traitor? --------------------

In front of the Forbidden City, a memorial service is going on.

The objects of mourning are the soldiers who died in the Battle of Tongzhou that ended ten days ago, including the Red Army, the Northwest Army, the Jinsui Army, and the Northeast Army. In addition to them, there are also "volunteers" from the Soviet Union. One appellation: Anti-Japanese Hero.

During those seventeen days of fighting, the Soviet Red Army lost a total of 75 people in the Pingjin area, and 12 people were missing (all pilots). In addition to the loss of pilots, most of the victims were technicians such as tankers, motor soldiers, and artillerymen.

Li Runshi personally presided over the memorial service, and all high-level CCP leaders also came.Huang Ke and Elena also appeared on the scene - the two came from the Soviet Union together, Huang Ke's mission was mainly to chase and deliver equipment and supplies, while Elena was purely a political mission - leading the Soviet Red Army Art Troupe, responsible for condolences and aid Chinese volunteers and wounded soldiers.She had just come from the Far East. At that time, she was leading people to perform for the Soviet Red Army who participated in the war in Manzhouli.Now Elena is in charge of everything in the Soviet Union, and Stalin deliberately asked her to get in touch with all fields and try to understand the operation of different Soviet institutions.

After the Battle of Tongzhou, most of the corpses of the sacrificed soldiers were cremated and buried on the spot, and the bones of a small number of people were transported back to Beiping and buried in the Babaoshan area.The sacrificed corpses of the Soviet Red Army were contained in coffins, and Huang Ke would bring them back to the Soviet Union for burial in the future through space equipment.

At the beginning of the memorial service, "March of the Volunteers" was played on the spot.Because the victims of the Soviet Red Army were also in the memorial service, after the "March of the Volunteers" was played, a proletarian war song "The Internationale" was sung on the spot.

At this time, there were more than a dozen fighter jets hovering in the sky all the time—this was to prevent Japanese planes from invading and bombing.Because China and Japan were still at war, the memorial service was kept simple and ended in ten minutes.Then people and horses from all sides entered the venue in turn, offering wreaths of mourning.

Last year, in the official propaganda of the Red Army, the forces north of the Yangtze River were collectively referred to as: the Northern Anti-Japanese Alliance Democratic Coalition Army, referred to as "Anti-Japanese Alliance".However, this banner was really erected after the Battle of Bailing Temple, and it was after the Battle of Tongzhou that all forces in the country were convinced that they recognized the status of the Red Army as the "lord of the Anti-Alliance".

Zhang Xueliang and a bunch of Northeast Army generals also rushed to Peiping to attend the memorial service.

When he saw Huang Ke, he thanked Huang Ke and said: "Six years, a full six years, our Northeast Army has been unable to hold up our heads in the country, and we have been spat on the back when we walk on the street. Until today, we have I really feel like I can walk down the street with a straight chest like a human being!"

That night, Li Runshi reminded him: After the Japanese army's military operations in North China went bankrupt, they might move south at any time and choose the south where the Red Army was weak to launch an aggressive operation, and persuaded him to remember to do a good job in combat preparations.

In fact, he had sent out related reminders a long time ago, but he didn't know how much the "Southern Committee Chairman" Chen Jitang would listen to.

There was no fighting in Peking that day.

After the Battle of Tongzhou, the military influence of the Japanese army in North China obviously entered a state of strategic contraction.Except for the continuous guerrilla and harassment battles between the Yanshan guerrillas and the Tangshan garrison in eastern Hebei, there was no conflict between the two sides—even the air strikes on Pingjin stopped.In the later period of the Tongzhou Battle, Japanese HNA planes once entered Pingjin and bombed. They covered thousands of Japanese troops and forcibly landed more than 100 kilometers north of Tanggu.However, after the battle ended, most of the battleships of the Japanese Navy withdrew from the Bohai Bay, and only a few small ships of several hundred tons were still berthing in Qinhuangdao.

There was a short-lived "false peace" between China and Japan.

The memorial service for the martyrs of the Anti-Japanese War attracted a large number of famous people from all over the country. The most famous person was Wu Peifu. At this time, he was already an old man in his 70s.In addition, there are Feng Yuxiang, Zhang Shizhao, Lao She, Mei Lanfang, etc., who are well-known and famous, and they are all rushing to Peiping in the name of "mourning" and condolences to the wounded.

Some people did come to pay tribute to the martyrs, and some people did donate a lot of money to support the War of Resistance. However, after Huang Ke and Chairman Li saw that even Hu Shi came to "consolate the wounded", they also saw that a large number of people saw The "from the dragon" driven by the wind rushed to the north in large numbers.

On May [-], taking advantage of the opportunity when many "big men" gathered in Beiping, Li Runshi publicized to the whole of China that he would continue to implement the "land reform policy" in all areas controlled by the Red Army. Recovered" Hebei area.

When the news came out, the entire Beiping area was in an uproar.

"It's too radical! Is it okay to cut rents and interest rates? At this time of land reform, is Li Runshi self-inflated because he defeated the Japanese?"

For a time, similar voices were heard among the "gentry" in the entire Pingjin area.Even Li Runshi respected Zhang Shizhao.However, during this period, Fu Zuoyi, Zhang Xueliang, and Yang Hucheng were all carrying out land reform in their respective territories. On the contrary, the "no land reform" Hebei area seemed very special, and the land reform policy was still enforced.In Song Zheyuan's 29th Army, many generals were also from landlord families. The policy of the Red Army was to give "military family preferential treatment" and the government forcibly redeemed them. There was no major disturbance, but the seeds of dissatisfaction had already been planted.

----------

"Mr. Chang Kaishen, were you responsible for the Shen Mingtang case?"

"Mr. Chen Guofu, what role did you play in the kidnapping of wealthy businessman Sima Wang?"

"Slander, slander, this is malicious political persecution!"

"I, Chang Kaishen, the majestic chairman of the Republic of China, how could I do such a thing?"

"You joined the Youth Gang when you were young, what do you think of this period of history?"

At the gate of the concession court, countless Chinese and foreign reporters surrounded Chang Kaishen and the Chen brothers, bombarding him with various bitter questions one after another.

The plucked phoenix is ​​not as good as the chicken, and Chang Kaishen, the dog who fell into the water, is now paying his debts for the gangster politics of the past ten years.Shanghai is the headquarters of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang Consortium. When the black history was maliciously exposed, it is now notorious in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai area. Under the secret connection of some people, countless sufferers joined hands to sue the Concession Court , messed him up.

Although the sufferer got help from people and found some witnesses, there was actually no valid evidence. It is impossible to sue Chang Kaishen for death. The real harm to Chang Kaishen mainly lies in the psychological "sulphur".

It was the first time in Chang Kaishen's life that he was forced to enter the concession court, stand on the dock, be surrounded by people like monkeys, take pictures, and then deal with all kinds of harsh questions from the prosecution.Even though he had experience in the Green Gang and his skin was as thick as a city wall, he still struggled to deal with it.

Yesterday's "chairman", today's "national traitor", "Japanese spy", "the biggest kidnapper in history", and "gangster", all the big hats are constantly put on his bald forehead.

"Chang Kaishen must not be given a chance to stand up!"
