Chapter 395 Japan seeks peace (2)
"Stop the attack now? It's better to completely destroy his garrison and then talk! If the Japanese devils don't give him a ruthless thing, you won't know how to restrain yourself... You're talking about this!"
Many people don’t understand Zhu Bin’s decision very well. According to their usual temperament, it is not only impossible to stop, but they will dig a big hole in Pingjin and wait for the Japanese to jump in to clean up in one fell swoop!
"This is one time and another, and the world changes, and we cannot follow the rules in a rigid manner." Jiang Baili responded to Zhu Bin with a far-sighted vision.
Zhu Bin deliberately acted on the ground two years ago because he had a small territory, few people, flexible and mobile, and had a central government as a shield. If something happened, he would be a scepter. The most important thing was that his troops were limited, so no matter how hard he tried, he would never have any major problems.
Now it is different. He just has a province, his wealth almost undermines a country, and his troops can sweep North China. Once he fights completely with Japan, there will be a situation where Beiyang alone resists Japan alone in the late Qing Dynasty. Zhu Bin has only developed for a few years, and how powerful is he to learn from Beiyang to fight against Japan that has been several times stronger. Do you want to die or seek death?
Local battlefields obey strategic considerations and follow the plan of "slowly becoming king". They should stop at the right time. They should not only affect the situation in North China and ensure their dominance, but also not drag the entire country into battle for a while, nor do they waste their strength and foundation because of the battle with Japan, and then they will be profitable by others. How stupid it would be!
Therefore, it is just right to fight this. On the one hand, it shocked the Japanese and Song Zheyuan. At the same time, the damage caused will not make the Japanese unable to bear the burden. Anyway, they have been defeated by Zhu Bin, and this is not bad. The two battleships can endure even if they sink. Now only a few thousand soldiers can resist.
"But whether the expectations can be achieved depends on whether the Japanese can control the situation! If they can't control the Kanto Army, then everything will be done, and there will be some fighting!"
Zhu Binyao looked at the East and felt that the overall situation had increased a lot! He could consider the problem from a strategic level. It was very good! If he was a trash man in the interstellar era, he would have only a little success in his life. He had not really stood at the peak of a complex and changeable world-class situation, and he really couldn't learn the ability to control the overall situation!
In layman's terms, this method is to beat the dog in pain, but not to beat the dog in a hurry, otherwise it will become a mad dog. If you bite it randomly, even if you beat it to death in the end, you will have to be exhausted by blood, which is not cost-effective.
But are the Japanese willing to accept such a "decent" step?
The Tianjin Garage Army Command, Tian Dai Wanichiro and other senior executives suddenly received a clear telegram from Zhu Bin, and their expression changed suddenly. The commander, who had felt uncomfortable after returning from the banquet, looked purple and gasped for a few breaths, and shouted angrily: "Let's take the initiative to withdraw troops?! He thought he was! What a joke! This is impossible!"
He was not very enthusiastic about provoking disputes in North China, but he was able to achieve certain achievements. This commander allowed him to achieve great achievements for thousands of years and be recorded in history, and he closed his eyes when he died.
However, if you actually let yourself withdraw your troops and stop the war, it would not work! As long as this order is issued, his military career will come to an end. It is for sure that he will be dismissed from his post and entered the reserve service and wait for death. With such a huge contrast, people with a little sense of honor would rather die than surrender!
Kenji Doihara and Seishiro Itagaki did not expect that the battle would be like this at the beginning. More than 5,000 regular troops, sixty or seventy tanks, seventy or eighty cannons, and more than 10,000 puppet troops. More than 60 fighter jets, in their opinion, were enough to wipe out Song Zheyuan's troops, but they were even half crippled by half of the opponent's regiment in less than two hours. Such a huge contrast is simply terrifying! But it is an indisputable fact.
Now the Third Fleet has also been trapped. The planned reinforcements are not sure whether they can come because of the sudden dispatch of the opponent's navy. The situation of the battle is no longer in their control!
It has to be said that, including Doihara and Seishiro Itagaki, none of the people who planned this incident were excellent strategists. They were not able to master the slightly higher level of war. They had more advantages in politics and local tactics. But the current situation is that they are completely passive in strategy!
Seishiro Itagaki said with a serious and serious face: "The other party should have expected this situation a long time ago, and the dispatch of all parties is not a temporary mobilization. If we do not accept their request, we will not be able to bring new reinforcements within two days, so the garrison troops will definitely be defeated! At that time, even if the Kanto Army goes south, the situation will become very complicated!"
Doihiro's eyes flashed for a long time and nodded reluctantly: "There are too many accidents. Unless you can convince the General Staff to fight with all your strength, you have to stop the battle temporarily."
Taday Anichiro's eyes lit up: "Then let's temporarily agree to their request, and then wait until the reinforcements are in place within two days before continuing to fight?"
This trick is a skilled routine. I have been in Shanghai for 32 years. Isn’t that what I did? If I can’t fight, I will negotiate, increase troops, fight again, but it won’t work. Negotiate again, and increase troops again... It will take a repeat of the cycle until the battle is won. Anyway, the Chinese government will not dare to start a war, so it’s okay to blackmail it!
Seishiro Itagaki shook his head: "Please note that Zhu Bin only gave us two hours of reply time. They don't have enough troops, and according to our reconnaissance, they are all mechanized troops, which is not conducive to long-term position combat. They are not that stupid!"
"What two hours are enough for?! Those guys in the General Staff Headquarters will take at least one day to quarrel!"
Tian Dai Anichi gritted his teeth in a bad mood. He refused to accept the ceasefire, but he was even more afraid that the second wing that was trapped in the encirclement would be killed. In that way, his fate would be the same. But two hours were indeed too rapid! And this time was just the gap for the enemy Tianjin landing troops to arrive at the battlefield, no more or less, just right!
Doihara sighed: "I'm afraid it's not optimistic! Haven't you noticed? Why did Zhu Bin send a message in a clear way? This is to actively tell people all over the world that he first stood on the position of winners and peaceful people. If we don't agree, it's our fault. In addition, he is also officially announcing something, and the Chinese began to actively challenge the empire!"
Let’s take a look at the place where Zhu Bin made the statement. On the Yellow Sea, it is very close to the shocking war 42 years ago. It is the first time that the Chinese fleet actively intercepts the Japanese navy on its own initiative, which is of great symbolism!
Seishiro Itagaki brows tightened again: "He is asking for a ceasefire! The Empire will never agree to such a threat, otherwise the Empire's reputation will be greatly damaged! He is a delusion!"
"The problem is that this delusion is likely to come true! Don't forget. His Majesty the Emperor's attention to the situation! The great cause of empire immigration must not be affected. It is the first priority sequence of affairs, and he will never agree to expand the war!"
Doihara's hatred was about to break open! Why couldn't God bless the Japanese Empire? This once-in-a-lifetime expansion opportunity, the world of Japan that countless ancestors dreamed of for thousands of years was about to be realized. But if you encounter such a terrible earthquake disaster, it would even endanger the land sinking crisis of the entire Yamato nation, so that the emperor, who has always been far-sighted, personally intervened in common affairs. He was always tied to the army's actions!
If Emperor Hirohito had not paid attention to him personally, no one would be able to control the Kwantung Army. Isn’t it planned the battle in North China?
pity…….
Seishiro Itagaki said depressedly: "Since it is already related to the dignity of the empire, it is better to follow the decision of the General Staff Headquarters!"
Zhu Bin's clear telegram once again caused a sensation in Asia, and then the world. As a leader, he launched such an unceremonious threat, which was very rare in China over the years. His attitude and tone were the best. For a moment, all the politicians from all over the world who were concerned about the situation in the Far East stared at them, and Britain, France, the United States, Italy and Germany seized the time to mobilize their own forces and prepare to mix in, because they all judged that this seemingly small-scale conflict event is likely to evolve into a great turmoil that changes the entire Asian situation!
Tokyo. The Japanese Army General Staff woke up early in the morning and hyped up a bunch of people! Because of the defeat of the Imperial Doctrine, only the commanders were left, and almost all of them were warriors. Therefore, they were extremely angry at Zhu Bin's undisguised threat, and the clamor for the increase in troops to start a war.
But the first minister of the General Staff, Ishihara Kanir, who was an important member of the General Staff, opposed it very much. In front of a group of passionate staff members, he scolded with a cold face: "Building a stable base in Manchuria is the primary task, which is related to the major plan of the imperial 100 million subjects and must not be changed or destroyed! Before the transfer of the imperial agriculture and industrial centers is completed, a comprehensive war against the branch cannot be carried out. This is certain!"
He was a firm decisive faction against the United States, occupied the four provinces of Manchuria and Mongolia, advanced to North China, threatened the Soviet Union to stop advancing eastward, and then concentrated China's strength to fight the United States in a decisive battle. After victory, Japan will become the world's largest power, and then calmly manage the entire split China, and slowly digest it in one or two generations. At that time, Japan will become the number one master in the Pacific.
Such a great idea was unmatched by Japan, but it was so different! And he himself was also contradictory. His 31-year attack on the Northeast was planned. His great success made him and Seishiro Itagaki ascend to the god stage and become idols of the Japanese army. Countless officers from top to bottom dreamed of creating an event like them, and creating unparalleled achievements with small profits!
But now he wants to say that he plans for a long time... it will take more than ten years of effort. Who can afford to wait? You have to achieve great things yourself and give others the opportunity to become the leader! You don’t care about so many plans and don’t want to do it, just drive away!
Ishihara Kaner suddenly became alone, with passionate staff and army officers. After finally encountering the opportunity to start a war, how could he let it go?
Ishihara had to slap in the face: "Are you sure to defeat the elite Chinese troops? Is there a way to crack their powerful chariots?"
"Our Air Force has gained an advantage! As long as they are overwhelmed by quantity, victory will definitely belong to us! The same goes for tanks and other things!"
After more than two hours of entanglement in the battlefield in North China, the Type 96 fighter jets that were fighting for the first time did not fall off. Although they did not kill the opponent's fighter jets, there were more than a dozen of them "injured". If the opponent was not good at skinny and thick flesh and numerous in numbers, they would have won. This is the first time that the Japanese Air Force has achieved such a record in five years! It would be fake if it wasn't exciting!
However, the tank troops were always painful in their hearts! This time, the dispatch of 50 or 60 vehicles with an unprecedented scale still failed! Of course, it was bombed and killed by the opponent's aviation troops. It was very unconvinced, so the staff firmly believed that as long as all three tank divisions were pulled out, it would be fine to wipe them out.
As expected by Doihira and the others, the staff members of the General Staff had endless arguments, and the two-hour deadline arrived in a blink of an eye, and they didn't even have a unified basic opinion.
At this time, on the battlefield in North China, the amphibious tank battalion and the Mechanical and Bus Battalion landed from Tianjin to Tongxian from the right bank of the canal. With the assistance of the boat bridge company, they easily crossed the river and rushed to the defensive position of the puppet army behind the palace. Thousands of puppet troops scattered and lost the ground and fled Tiantian. The backs of the two brigades of the Second Regiment of the garrison were directly thrown to more than 100 tanks, infantry fighting chariots and self-propelled artillery!
On the south side, Deputy Regiment Commander Yang Yamin led the Second Tank Battalion to cross the river and did not busy chasing him. He first escorted the Artillery Battalion and bombed the southern defense line of the 2nd Battalion of the First Regiment, which was very scared by the Japanese artillery gang that had difficulty running into Nanyuan! The heavy artillery gang, which had difficulty in transporting, had no choice but to drag the cannons weighing more than ten tons into it, so he had to retreat hurriedly with the Second Regiment, get closer to the main force of the Second Regiment, and the encirclement suddenly became dense.
On Huanghai, Zhu Bin looked at his watch. When two hours arrived, the Japanese did not respond positively. Instead, various comforts from the government, Britain, the United States and other countries came one after another, and threw them aside and sneered: "Please keep your own affairs in mind! Pick up a small boat and practice your hands and fire!"
The two heavy cruisers who had been waiting for a long time raised the triple main guns and aimed at the stalemate Japanese transport fleet. The most advanced thousand-ton destroyer with at least 30 years of age "boomed" a salvo. Eighteen 123-kilogram shells whistled out of the bore at an initial speed of 925 meters per second. After more than ten seconds, the small boat, which was less than ten kilometers in the middle distance, hit the first shot in a shocking explosion!
The little broken ship, which was too lazy to remember the name, didn't even have the chance to struggle for a while, was swept the bridge directly, broke through the ship's body, and exploded into two pieces and sank into the bottom of the water! (To be continued)!~!
Chapter completed!
