Chapter 834: Strategic Turning Point (8)
Umezu Yoshijiro felt that the veins on his forehead were jumping inexplicably, which did not seem to be a good sign! Sure enough, Prince Zain said frankly: "His Majesty the Emperor was deeply comforted to know that you are fighting on the front line, so he specially rewarded you with royal wine.
However, the reorganization and troop mobilization require the full cooperation of all armies to draw soldiers and equipment from the existing troops. When the next batch of new recruits and weapons and equipment are replenished, priority will be given to you.|March 8th Literature"
Before Prince Zai Ren finished speaking, the venue was in an uproar. Prince Zai Ren did not bring a single soldier, but instead brought a group of defeated generals. Originally, the defeated generals were not brave enough, but this group of defeated generals still had to follow them.
The already stretched troops and equipment in hand? The current supplies are still insufficient. Many generals at the division level glared at Prince Zairen, but they dared not speak out in anger.
Prince Zai Ren shouted several times but was ignored. Umezu Yoshijiro lowered his head and remained silent, Sugiyama Gen closed his eyes and rested his mind, and Okabe Naosaburo looked at the roof in a daze. The commanders of the front army also had different expressions. Only the division commander
They had such a violent quarrel with the army commanders that Prince Zai Ren finally remembered that the Kwantung Army was the base camp for "down to conquer the top"!
At this time, Oshima Mori, the commander of the 212th Division, stood up with a livid face and slapped his pistol on the table. The venue was suddenly silent. Oshima Mori was originally an unknown person. He graduated from the University of China.
His performance was basically that of hunting wolves. He had a high spirit of internationalism and wanted to marry an American wife. However, the military did not approve it and he was almost demoted. In 1939, he was transferred to
If he had not been so crazy about the expansion of the Japanese army, he would have never been able to join the army in his life. Oshima Mori, who had never been in the General Staff Headquarters, had always been looked down upon in mainland universities because he only had the saber group, which was among the top six graduates.
Only the famous ones have the chance to enter the General Staff Headquarters, so Oshima Mori has a big prejudice against the General Staff Headquarters.|38 Literature
It seems that this time Oshima Mori also found an opportunity to vent his dissatisfaction. Who allowed you, Prince Zai Ren, to be the chief of staff for so many years? If you are not unlucky, it is really unreasonable. Others are afraid that you, Prince Zai Ren, are shady. Oshima Mori
But don't be afraid. Oshima Mori, who was transferred to the reserve service, is not afraid of anything at the moment. Even if he is facing Emperor Hirohito, he dares to shoot a gun or saber on the table today. Anti-Japanese Blood Sacrifice Mountains and Rivers 834
Oshima Mori is a barefoot person who is not afraid of wearing shoes. When his 212th Division was originally formed, there were only three infantry regiments, and none of them were full. There was no artillery regiment, only one field artillery brigade, and only one cavalry regiment.
A small team fought in such a difficult environment in the Far East, and the 212th Division suffered heavy losses. When he transferred troops from his division, even if there was only one brigade, he could not bear it.
Moreover, Oshima Mori, who had repeatedly requested for supplies but failed, finally became angry and revolted. Oshima Mori said rudely to Prince Zai Ren: "Now, except for Vladivostok, which can eat two tons of food every day, the rest of the divisions below
Group, even me
Each division commander was fed only with salted sorghum rice, which was not enough to eat. In the ice and snow, more of us died of frostbite than died in battle. Some troops who had attacked far away once had the habit of eating Russians.
, more than 1.7 million imperial troops? Still
Do we use the establishment and number of soldiers a year ago to deceive His Majesty the Emperor? Do we still have one million combatants? Where are our ammunition, clothing to keep out the cold, and food to keep us hungry? What kind of new personnel are we planning to annihilate now?
Division? Still need to draw?
To mobilize our soldiers and weapons, they should commit suicide and apologize. These criminals will be dead the day they escape from Nanjing. Now I want to ask His Royal Highness Prince Zai Ren, should they commit suicide as apology, or should they force us people to death?
?”
Prince Zai Ren, who had never been contradicted face to face, his hands began to tremble, and he could hardly speak. On the side, Umezu Meijiro, Sugiyama Moto, Okabe Naosaburo and others were sitting back and watching. Prince Zai Ren suddenly understood something.
He is the real outsider. What the Kwantung Army dislikes the most is the dictation of outsiders. It seems that he has violated the Kwantung Army's taboo.
Oshima Mori raised his arms, and more than a dozen division commanders also slapped their sabers and pistols on the table across from their front commander. Each slap was equivalent to a blow to Prince Zai Ren's heart. Zai Ren
The prince just found out now
, due to repeated defeats, the generals on the front line have accumulated too much grievances. His arrival today seems to have allowed these guys to find an outlet. They were actually defeated by the Kwantung Army once? They are really unwilling!
On the first day he arrived in Vladivostok, Prince Zai Ren fell ill and died at the meeting. A devil who devoted his life to invading China was even sick and angry. The Kwantung Army, which he valued and supported the most, successfully defeated Shang Qi.
dead.
It was Emperor Hirohito's personal decision not to announce the funeral secretly. Even among the Kwantung Army generals in Vladivostok, only Umezu Yoshijiro knew that Prince Zaihi had died. However, the real reason must not be announced to the public. Emperor Hirohito held a ceremony for Prince Zaihi in Tokyo.
the shrouded mourning ceremony,
However, no one could see the body of Prince Zairen at the ceremony, because the plane carrying his body was chased on its way to Fengtian. As a result, the Japanese pilot fled through Shanhaiguan in embarrassment and was eventually shot down. The Japanese army could not find him.
When he returned to his coffin, he had no choice but to report that it had been burned together.
In fact, Prince Zain's coffin was seized by a local guerrilla group. The body of a man wearing a Japanese general's uniform and covered with medals attracted the attention of the Youth Army's intelligence department, who immediately sent someone to seize it.
Gao Fei was also very happy when he heard the news. Before attacking Shanhaiguan, he gave the Japanese a morale blow. After identification, the body turned out to be Prince Zai Ren, the army general of the Japanese royal family?
So Gao Fei immediately sent a master forger to start making fake news. The next day, newspapers from JoongAng Daily to Ta Kung Pao and other newspapers published on the first page the Sino-US joint air force shot down a Japanese transport plane and killed Prince Jae-in, a member of the royal family, with more than a dozen various photos.
Coupled with the wreckage of the Japanese plane crash, etc., it resulted in his death in a crash.
After that, his military uniform and saber were sent to the Military and Administrative Department of the Nationalist Government in Nanjing for preservation. Gao Fei directly cremated the body of Prince Zai Ren, invited more than 200 domestic and foreign reporters, and after the cremation, it was loaded into the barrel of a cannon and fired, giving him a good reputation.
It is said that poking the bones and raising ashes is the most common method used by the Chinese to deal with foreign enemies.
There was an uproar in Japan. No matter whether the Japanese government or even Emperor Hirohito personally refuted the rumors, it had no effect. The Chinese had photos, landline phones, corpses, military uniforms, medals, sabers, seals, etc., and they had decided to do so.
