Chapter 33 Assassination of Kanji Ishihara
Quietly walking out of Kenji Doihara's house, Feng Quan turned around and looked around. There was no one there except the late night watchman. He found a remote corner and carefully threw the night clothes into the sewer. He lit a stick on fire.
He smoked and swaggered back to the rented inn.
Lying on the bed, I was very excited. I killed a future Japanese general. Why are I so happy? Don’t be too complacent in life. I hope Japan will never see such a person again. It’s terrible. Chiang Kai-shek’s battle plan and telegrams.
As soon as they were made, they could be placed on the desks of the Japanese frontline officers. This battle was impossible to fight. Light weapons were just fine, about the same as the Japanese army. Heavy weapons were not.
The 2nd Field Heavy Artillery Brigade alone consists of the 5th and 6th Heavy Artillery Regiments. The number of heavy artillery in such a field heavy artillery brigade exceeds the total number of heavy artillery in China.
The wretched organization of the Japanese army is as incomprehensible and confusing as the Japanese. Many people in today's society still have questions, why is it so difficult to eliminate a Japanese army brigade, even a squadron, a small team, etc.? The two Chinese and Japanese teams
Why is the combat effectiveness so poor?
During the Anti-Japanese War, the establishment of a Category A field division of the Japanese army was as follows: two infantry brigades, each with two infantry regiments, plus one regiment each of engineers, baggage, cavalry, and artillery. The maximum full strength
With a strength of up to 27,000, it is a combat group composed of various arms. Its combat effectiveness can be equal to that of one or several army groups.
During the Republic of China, the organization of the Chinese Communist Party was too chaotic. There were corps-level units of the Central Army with a normal establishment of tens of thousands, and corps-level units of more than 10,000 miscellaneous units. Although the enthusiasm for resisting Japan was commendable, they were also very brave.
But on the battlefield, it is really terrible. The organization is chaotic, the weapons and ammunition are complicated, and the senior command officers lack modern military literacy and the ability to command armies of different factions. The more troops there are, the worse the losses. On the contrary, when most of the Japanese troops participating in the war were
Even though they are from the same faction, have the same organization, and have the same weapons, they can actually fight better.
Specifically, the Japanese squad level corresponds to the ** platoon, but the Japanese squad has more than 50 people, and the ** platoon only has more than 30 people. The squad leader is a lieutenant or second lieutenant, and the Japanese squadron corresponds to the ** company, but the Japanese squadron has 0
There are many people, the squadron leader is a lieutenant or captain, and the ** company has about 110-130 people. The company commander is also a lieutenant or captain.** In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the army's morale, equipment, and training were not as good as the Japanese army, so an elite Central Army
A division can only fight against one regiment or group of Japanese troops. Miscellaneous troops are even worse. A division may even struggle to gnaw down a Japanese squadron. Even if an eight-pronged army wants to ambush and eat Japanese squadrons and squadrons, it often requires several times the strength of the troops.
In order to be able to chew it, you have to pay several times the casualties.
The standard number of people in a squad (equivalent to a platoon) in the Japanese army at all levels is about 54. Of course, it varies depending on the specific situation. A squadron has three squads plus the squadron headquarters and the like, which is about 180-250 people. A group has four.
An infantry squadron and a heavy machine gun squadron, plus the standard number of group headquarters and other units are 1100. A regiment has three infantry groups, plus the standard number of other units and wing headquarters is 3800. If a division has four infantry regiments
Together with the other four auxiliary regiments, the number is around 20,000.
At that time, the largest caliber artillery in China was Rheinmetall's 150mm heavy field howitzer purchased from Germany. The total number of these guns was 44. These 44 heavy guns are family heirlooms of the country.
These 44 artillery pieces were used from the Battle of Songhu in 1937 to the Battle of Henan, Hunan and Guangxi in 1944. It was not until 1945 that American heavy artillery began to be transported to China via the India-Burma Highway, and the few remaining German heavy artillery were eliminated.
And what about the 2nd Field Heavy Artillery Brigade attached to the 14th Division? This brigade was transferred to North China one month after the July 7th Incident. This heavy artillery brigade has jurisdiction over the 24th Field Artillery Regiment (equipment 36
1 mm howitzers and 12 75mm field guns, the 3rd Independent Mountain Artillery Regiment (equipped with 36 75mm mountain guns and 12 75mm field guns), the 5th Field Heavy Artillery Regiment (equipped with 24 150mm heavy howitzers), and the Field Heavy Artillery Regiment.
The 6th Artillery Regiment (equipped with 24 150mm heavy howitzers). In other words, the entire heavy artillery brigade is equipped with 24 75mm field guns, 36 75mm mountain guns, 36 1 mm howitzers, and 48 150mm heavy howitzers. Artillery of other calibers
Not to mention, there are 48 150mm heavy howitzers assigned to the 5th and 6th Field Heavy Artillery Regiments of the 14th Division this time, which has exceeded the number of heavy artillery in China as a whole.
This sharp contrast is enough to see the huge difference in firepower between the Chinese and Japanese armies, and also to understand why it was so difficult to kill the 14th Division in the Lanfeng Battle. The plain terrain is where the Japanese army exerts its power.
Under such terrain, the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army doubled. It still takes a lot of courage for the Japanese to dare to attack the Japanese army. Among other things, the firepower of the Japanese heavy machine guns and small artillery is very powerful. If the infantry does not have enough firepower to cover the attack,
The Japanese army's charge was tantamount to death.
The Japanese army fought in the same old style, long-range artillery bombardment, medium-range grenade launchers, 92 heavy machine guns, crooked machine gun fire, close range use of 38 guns, and then outflanking. Under normal circumstances, the Chinese army could not hold on.
If it cannot be captured, the Japanese army will come again several times. If it doesn't work, call for aircraft support.
Hey! Take your time. The famous Japanese spy boss has been killed, and there is an even more dangerous Ishihara Wanji. This guy is called "Japan's number one military strategist."
Kanji Ishihara, who considers himself "the founding father of Manchukuo", was born on January 18, 1889 in Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture, Japan. He was an army lieutenant general during the Japanese Empire, a planner and theorist of the Japanese invasion strategy, and a Japanese thinker.
, politician and advocate of militarism. He proposed the theory of final war, advocating that we must pay attention to "war to support war" and "protracted warfare" in order to win the last great war of mankind, that is, the world's ultimate war centered on Japan and the United States.
The prerequisite for a decisive battle with the United States must first occupy Northeast China as Japan's strategic resource supply base. His military strategic thinking directly guided the September 18th Incident launched by the Japanese Kwantung Army and the occupation of Northeast China. He proposed that Japan was at a disadvantage strategically
Status: The territory has no depth and no strategic material resources. In the process of this protracted war, Japan must have a rear base, and this base is Manchuria and Mongolia. This is the origin of the "Manchuria-Mongolia Lifeline Theory".
In order to realize the "final war theory", as a member of the Japanese staff tour group, he constantly traveled to various parts of China. He collected political, economic and military intelligence, and summed up the method of dealing with the Chinese Communist Party - "Instead of fighting with force, bribery,
Publicity has greater value”.
This guy is too dangerous. If it weren't for the many arrogant and radical militaristic officers, his "fighting to support war" and "protracted fighting" would appear to be very unusual. In addition, he is very different from what he calls "Junior Tojo"
The superiors were at odds, and the War of Resistance Against Japan really had to be rewritten. Private Tojo was Hideki Tojo, the Minister of War and Prime Minister of Japan. On December 13, 1948, he was hanged by the International Military Tribunal for the Far East as Japan's biggest war criminal.
This guy might have traveled through time, so he must be eliminated. Feng Quan in his previous life had studied this person. At this time, Ishihara Wanji became the chief operational staff officer of the Kwantung Army after October 10, 19 (19).
How to kill him without causing a dispute? It's not a big problem for Kenji Doihara. After all, he doesn't have any position, and Kanji Ishihara is on active duty. By the way, tracking, assassination, burning of corpses, feeding wolves, destroying corpses and eradicating traces
fine.
Haha, Feng Quan, who had an idea, came to No. 10 Wanle Street, Taiyanggou, Lushunkou District, where the headquarters of the Japanese Kwantung Army was located. It was later moved to Changchun. He dressed up as a cigarette vendor and hid in a place with a good viewing angle.
After two days of surveillance, I finally caught an opportunity. Ishihara took two Japanese people, probably somewhere in the Northeast, to conduct a staff trip and gather intelligence.
Feng Quan hid far behind the three of them. The alert Japanese did not notice their danger. Choosing a deserted mountain road, Feng Quan took out a Mauser 98k sniper rifle. After three shots, the backs of the three people's heads splashed out.
There were a lot of red and white things. Feng Quan walked over quickly and tried, but the breath from his nostrils could only come out. He also tried the aorta in his neck, but it didn't jump anymore. Haha, it doesn't work even if Amaterasu comes.
.
The next step is to collect firewood, of course, and burn them all, kill them all, and rob them all. Apart from military intelligence, the three of them don't have much in the way of the ocean. A Southern Fourteener, two 38ers, and Gai Fengquan don't like them, so they can't burn them.
, can it be discovered even if it is buried?
Chapter completed!
