December 15, 1923. (No., pop-up window...

In Iwate Prefecture, Japan.

The cold wind and goose-feather-like snowflakes roared across the wasteland and mountains, blowing everything in the northern snow country soared.

Under such a wind and snow, two teams that were invisible at the beginning and the end were marching on the road where the snow had just been cleared. Each soldier carried his backpack, wearing a thick military coat, and putting a rifle on his shoulders, burying his head and moving forward quickly. There was also a flag with a red golden sun flying against the wind and snow!

The general political commissar of the Red Army of Japan, Yuki Takeda, was riding on the horse, surrounded by senior Red Army officers and staff officers, as well as Yasuo Yasuda's defense soldiers. Everyone was carrying submachine guns and stood on a high slope in the snow, watching the Red Army brigade who had just completed the adaptation and was rushing to the front line in the snow.

Iron Blood Republic of China 468

The cold wind blew over Takeda Hiroshi's face like a knife, almost making him unable to open his eyes, and the sound of the wind covered his murmuring in his native Korean language.

"It's amazing... command the Japanese to kill the Japanese! This feeling is so good, so good... Comrades who died in the North Korean ** movement, where are your heroes? Come and take a look, and see the Japanese blood dyed the entire snow country red!"

A Red Army officer who was responsible for commanding the marching order came and reported loudly: "Comrade General Political Commissar, the headquarters column can advance!"

Takeda Yukichi was about to go downhill, and the commander of the First Front Army of the Red Army next to him, Muto Nobuyi, suddenly shouted: "Comrade General Political Commissar, this decisive battle in the snow is related to the rise and fall of our Red Army. You don't plan to make any instructions. Let the troops listen carefully and cheer up? Just like Marshal Hirahachiro Togo was in the Battle of Tsuma Hai!"

Before the war, saying something nonsense that encourages the morale of the army such as "the rise and fall of the imperial country, and this battle" has long been the practice of the Japanese army. As the General Political Commissar, Hiroshi Takeda had made preparations long ago, but he forgot his excitement for a while. He heard Muto Nobuyoshi's reminder, he focused his head and said loudly: "The old Japanese Empire had fallen in the storm on September 3. A more powerful new Japan will come to the world in the bloody battle of the Snow Country. From then on, the red-bottomed golden sun flag will be inserted throughout the new Japan and into the new Asia! New Japan, on-board! New Asia, on-board! Japanese gcd. on-board!"

As he said that, he shouted slogans and rushed down the high slope. Dozens of cavalry officers followed closely behind and stepped over the horse's hooves. They brought out bursts of snow and mist, as if coming from a dream. When the Japanese Red Army officers and soldiers who were marching under the hillside saw this scene, they couldn't help but shouted the slogan of long live!

At this moment, who could have thought about how terrible bloody storm the red-bottomed golden sun flag was about to stir on the Japanese archipelago?

...

At this time, in the wilderness and hilly areas of the northern suburbs of Osaki City, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan. The Second Division, which belonged to the Japanese Ohae Front, was building fortifications near various traffic points entering and leaving Sendai City. Of course, this Second Division was not the one that was almost wiped out by the Chinese National Defense Forces in Far East Prefecture, but the original 102nd Division. During this period, the troops of the Japanese Provisional Government were also reorganized, and the numbers of several elite divisions that were eliminated or participated in the rebellion were awarded special divisions composed of their reserve troops. The 102nd Division was the Second Division, so it was naturally the Second Division, and was sent to defend their hometown Sendai. It really showed a little high fighting spirit, at least it was quite hard to dig trenches and repair fortifications.

The third round pick is the first lieutenant general, as the new division commander of the 2nd Division. He stood at a high place and led a large group of staff to watch his officers and soldiers dig trenches in a snowy day with a telescope. Today, it was also snowing around Osaki City, and the temperature dropped to more than ten degrees below zero. However, he stood still in the cold wind, and he was discussing something with the staff around him from time to time. Of course, his face was extremely ugly.

Now there are very few generals from the army and navy in Tokyo who are willing to fight this civil war. The lost lands of North Korea and Taiwan have not been recovered yet, and tens of millions of compatriots have become slaves of the country. As soldiers cannot go to battle at this time, they are ashamed and ashamed. If they command troops to fight with their compatriots, how can they still have the face to live in the world?

So the major general of the China-Tan, the Minister of Army of Tokyo, could not find Lieutenant General Ken to command the Second Division on the front line of the civil war. In the end, he had no choice but to promote the Triple Round Skill, who had just become major general, and sent him to Miyagi Prefecture. However, the Triple Round Skill I couldn't forget the rolling eyes of his colleagues when he packed things in the office of the former Army of the Army... He could not understand that it was clearly a civil war launched by the Japanese GCD, but why did the Provisional Government blame the Provisional Government for the civil war and the Japanese GCD who was determined to fight the civil war as a patriot against China? This world is really hard to understand! Fortunately, the Japanese GCD finally found that he agreed to make peace two days ago. Maybe he knew that Japan, who was struggling with internal and external affairs, could it be that he could not fight a civil war again?

Thinking of this, he sighed and asked the staff around him, "How is the morale of the troops now? After knowing the news that the peace talks began, morale should have improved, right?"

The staff officer was sighing. He was an elderly officer. Because he had not been admitted to the Army University and had bad grades in the Army Non-commissioned officer school, he retired as a captain. Unexpectedly, he received the order for recruitment more than ten years after leaving the army. He was no better than those young officers who had no family. He had a lot of wives and children in his family who were counting on him to make money. But now his salary as an officer is almost depreciating Japan into a pile of waste paper. He can only rely on pawnshops to survive. How can he have a bad morale? As soon as he became an officer, how can the soldiers who dug trenches in the snow and ice be able to get better?

Seeing his dead face hesitating and not talking, Milun Shuichi had to smile bitterly and comfort him: "Everything will be fine, it will be fine. As long as there is no civil war, Japan will be better slowly."

While talking, I saw a few horses rushing in the snow in front of me. The horses were all wearing yellow Japanese uniforms, and they turned out to be cavalry to the Second Division. First, an officer who was probably a small team leader and drove over. Seeing their division commander standing on the high slope, a division commander greeted him and talked to him for a few words, then rushed to the front of Triflun Xiuyi in anger and reported loudly: "Secretary Commander, there is a big situation! When the Second Cavalry Regiment was conducting routine patrols, a group of cavalry in white coats ran into the snow in the Kurihara area! They all wore pointed hats, and there was a red five-pointed star on the hats. They claimed to be the big Japanese Red Army!"

"Nani!" The three-rounder Shui took a breath. Kurihara City is under the jurisdiction of Miyagi Prefecture! According to the temporary agreement reached by the Tokyo Provisional Government and the National Salvation Committee, Miyagi Prefecture is not the territory of the Red Army. Why did they break in by themselves?

"Secretary Commander, should you send troops to Kurihara City to prepare defense?" Colonel Qin Zhenji, the chief of staff of the Second Division, was also stunned by the news. He was dizzy and began to make suggestions.

"Armating the defense? The Second Division is now arbing defense around Osaki City!" The Triunx Shuichi glared at his chief of staff angrily. "Hurry to generate electricity to the Front Command, and said that a small group of Red Army cavalry crossed the border and entered Miyagi Prefecture and requested instructions." He took a breath and issued an order with an almost sad face: "Send the order to prepare for each unit at the first level! The Red Army may be coming!"

Iron Blood Republic of China 468

...

On December 15, the 4th Division, which crossed the border of Iwate Prefecture, attacked Miyagi Prefecture, was the Fourth Division under the First Front Army of the Japanese Red Army. The predecessor of this division was the famous Osaka Fourth Division of the Japanese Army! This division was incorporated into the First Army in the previous Sino-Japanese War and participated in the military operation of a bypass attack on the North Manchuria. Although it did not achieve any great results, it was not hit by the Chinese army. Finally, it retreated safely into the Soviet Union and successfully preserved its strength.

So he was sent by Takeda Hiroshi and Muto Nobuyi to take the lead in the battle with the Sendai Second Division. He was not afraid of starting a battle with the Second Division, which is known as the First Elite Division of the Japanese Army. These Red Army soldiers from Osaka had already found out clearly and knew that the so-called Second Division was just an empty stance. The real Second Division had long been basically broken in Far East Prefecture, and the remaining little seed was also incorporated into the 18th Division, which is now the 7th Division of the Red Army.

As for the division commander of the Fourth Division of the Red Army, Taro Muraoka Nagato and Hiro Kato, the political commissar, were even more confident. Their Fourth Division had a total of two brigades and four regiments, including one regiment of artillery, workers, baggage, and cavalry, with a total force of more than 25,000 people. They were well-equipped and well-trained. The Fourth Artillery Regiment directly under the division also had 48 cannons, of which 12 were 152mm howitzers assisted by the Soviet Union! Tens of thousands of Japanese migrant workers and more than 1,000 large trucks advancing with the army were also loaded with sufficient food and ammunition. And the temporary

The total strength of the Second Division on the government is only more than 20,000. Most of them are recruits or reserve officers and soldiers who have just been recruited. The training level is not a little worse than that of the Red Fourth Division! The weapons and equipment are even more outdated. Although the artillery corps belonging to the division are equipped with 36 cannons, the heavy artillery has only 12 150mm howitzers, and it is the old Meiji 38-year-old style, with a maximum range of only a pitiful 5,890 meters. It is estimated that if you can't fire a few guns, you will have to be knocked off by the long-range cannons of the Red Fourth Division.

With such military strength and firepower advantages, Muraoka Nagataro and Kato Hiroshi ordered the army to enter Miyagi Prefecture without any hesitation. After expelling a small number of government cavalry, they occupied Kurihara City at around 11:00 on the same day. Then they drove about 10 kilometers towards Osaki City, and occupied the starting position less than 5 kilometers from the front of the Second Division of the Government Army, and put on a full-scale attack.

At this time, the Second Division of the Provisional Government had also received the order to start a war. Then it sent cavalry troops and small groups of infantry to start a tentative attack, and the 4th Red Division was not to be outdone and sent infantry to compete with its opponent for control of the battlefield. The outpost battle between the two sides was immediately formed into a regiment, with cavalry fighting each other and infantry shooting fiercely. Staff officers at all levels of the Red Division began to observe the terrain under the cover of the troops and prepared to formulate an offensive plan. The situation is now very obvious. The Japanese GCD and the Red Army had no sincerity in negotiations at all, but were just playing with peace tricks to confuse the opponent!

The command center of the Japanese Red Army General Political Commissar Yuki Takeda and the commander of the first-party Nobuyoshi Muto, after a day and night of march, arrived in Kurihara City at dawn on December 16 to establish a front-line command post, Muraoka Nagato and Kato Hiroshi almost immediately sent them a report of the victory of the first battle.

Kato Hiroshi Kato, the political commissar of the Red Fourth Division, seemed to go down to the front line to watch the battle. When he came to the front command of the front army, he was covered in smoke. As soon as he saw Takeda and Muto, he reported with a smile: "The traitors' army has been retracted. I have arrived less than 3 kilometers away from their frontline positions. The Oyu defense line is just a bunch of field fortifications. The defenders' firepower and fighting will are not good. They are no match for our revolutionary army at all. No wonder they will be defeated by the Chinese in the Far East!"

听到这个话,武藤信义的眉毛就拧起来了.他在日军里面呆了大半辈子,什么部队能打,什么部队不能打,他是再清楚不过了.红四师团里面的大阪人一直都是让所有军官头疼的对象.他们怎么可能轻轻松松的就把仙台第二师团给揍了?就算对方是后备兵员组成的也不可能啊!他表情凝重地道:“第二师团素称精锐,我们还是不能轻敌,还是等后续部队上来以后再发动进攻吧.”

Takeda Yuki said excitedly: "Comrade Commander is still too underestimating our Red Army." He paused and said: "This time we are not fighting a national war but a revolutionary war. The nature of the Japanese Red Army is a revolutionary army, which is used to fight a revolutionary war. The whole army knows the significance of this revolutionary war. Therefore, they will inevitably fight bravely. On the other hand, although the Second Division of the White Army is always called elite, it is an army used to carry out foreign wars. If it is sent to Shinoura and North Korea to fight with the Chinese army, it may still be able to exert its strongest combat power. However, the reactionary provisional government does not allow them to defend the country, but uses it to fight a civil war and point its gun at its compatriots. Comrade Commander, do you think the patriotic officers and soldiers of the Second Division of the White Army are willing to truly work hard for traitors like Nishiyuanji Koma and Kitaichiko?"

Wu Teng was stunned for a moment, and was silent for a long time before asking back: "General Political Commissar, yiyàng is fighting a civil war. Why can the officers and soldiers of the Red Fourth Division be highly motivated?"

Takeda Hiroshi smiled and said, "Who is that fighting for? The White Army officers and soldiers fought for the traitor government, the chaebol capitalists, and the landlords and rich peasants. But the borers in these countries do not cherish the White Army officers and soldiers, and the military pay they sent was not enough to live. How could the White Army officers and soldiers have fighting spirit? But our Red Army is different. We want to overthrow the three mountains, the chaebol capitalists and the landlords and rich peasants, and take things that should belong to the Red Army officers and soldiers from the hands of the enemy and share them with them. When the three mountains are overthrown in the future, the Red Army officers and soldiers will be heroes of the revolution. This revolutionary war determines their future and destiny. Therefore, the Red Army officers and soldiers are fighting for themselves, so how can they not be high in fighting spirit?"

"I understand!" After hearing this analysis, Muto Nobuyi's belief in the victory of the revolution became much stronger. He stood up and said to Takeda Yukishi: "General Political Commissar, you are in the headquarters. I and the leader of the Muraoka Division went to the front to take a look. Today, we must set the offensive plan, and the general attack will be the latest tomorrow morning!"

The opposite of the revolutionary army's belief in victory, but the counter-revolutionary army was at the same time in fear of war. General Kikuchi Shintaro, commander of the Japanese government army, was originally the director of the army education. A while ago, because most of the trainees of the Army's non-commissioned school under his jurisdiction, the instructors followed Principal Lu, so he could only resign. However, he was appointed as the commander of the Ouyu Front to make up for his merits. However, this old guy's enthusiasm for the civil war was indeed higher than that of other senior Japanese generals. Because on September 1, he

He also followed Emperor Taisho and Prince Hirohito to worship ghosts at Yasukuni Shrine. He heard the oral order of Emperor Taisho to depose Prince Hirohito and make Yongren the crown prince. In his opinion, Emperor Taisho was completely clear when he issued the decree, so the decree was completely legal and valid! The position of Prince Hirohito was deposed on September 1, and he ascended the emperor on September 2 was a ruthless act! Now Emperor Taisho and Prince Yuen are both in Tokyo, and sooner or later will be restored in the future, so the Tokyo Provisional Government is undoubtedly orthodox, and Yuhito and Japan GCD are traitors.

In the more than a month since he became the commander of the Ouyu Front Army, he kept instilling this set of principles into his subordinates and told his subordinates that they were fighting for Emperor Taisho and Crown Prince Yongren. But the effect is of course frustrating. If there were no Chang Dashen and the Kanto earthquake, these Japanese troops would of course be willing to fight for His Majesty the Emperor. But now the emperor's throne and divine nature are gone. Japan is already the Republic of China. Most of the officers and soldiers below do not agree with the restoration of the Emperor's system, let alone the war and death for the sake of this liar Emperor?

So over a month, the morale of the Ouyu Front Army not only did not improve, but was even more sluggish! Just as the sound of gunfire at the front line started today, the troops reported that soldiers refused to fight and flee! In desperation, General Kikuchi Shintaro had to order the troops to organize a supervision team to support the battle immediately, and urgently contacted the Tokyo side, asking the Nishienji government to raise a truly useful money other than the Japanese yen banknotes to send it over, so that he could use the reward to inspire the officers and soldiers below to fight!
