My cold is getting better, so I’ll add more chapters, four chapters today!
************A house in a Japanese military camp in Nanyuan, Peking, was heavily guarded. A Japanese soldier with a loaded gun stood solemnly at the door and under the window, watching the surroundings vigilantly.
. Even fortifications were set up on the roof, and two light machine guns were set up. Four Japanese soldiers squatted behind the fortifications, holding the handles of the machine guns tightly.
In the room, the commander of Japan's North China Garrison, Ojiu Hirata, was sitting in front of the table, his military cap lying flat beside him. His straight military uniform made his shoehorned face look a bit majestic. The long hair in front of him
On both sides of the conference table were the commanders of the various units of the North China garrison. Each of them stood upright and listened to his instructions with bated breath.
"Everyone, the latest order has been sent from the Army Headquarters!" Commander Ojiu Hirata looked around at the Japanese officers present, and then said loudly, "The "Tide Tide Plan" launched in China will be fully implemented soon. Please do your best.
Do your part to prepare for this battle that affects the fate of the empire."
"Hai!" All the Japanese commanders stood up and responded in unison.
Commander Dajiu Hirata waved his hand towards them, motioning them to sit down, and then continued, "You also know that the Manchurian War that had just achieved results some time ago was completely destroyed by the sudden appearance of Luo Xiao and the Yanhuang Corps led by him.
was destroyed, so the Army Headquarters was furious and dispatched
Eight divisions were mobilized to encircle it. Now there are six divisions of the Imperial Kwantung Expeditionary Army stationed in Jilin and Heilongjiang provinces, forming a clampdown with the two divisions of the Mongolia Department, and the two divisions located on the front line of the Rehe Great Wall
A division cut off Luo Xiao's retreat and prevented them from retreating into the pass."
All the Japanese officers did not speak, but listened quietly to the commander's narration.
The look on Commander Dajiu Hirata's face was very serious, "The order given by the Army Headquarters to these eight divisions is to completely annihilate the Luo Xiao bandits in Fengtian within half a month, and return the three eastern provinces to the jurisdiction of the empire.
Lay a solid logistical foundation for the future comprehensive jihad in Greater East Asia."
"In order to cooperate with the Kwantung Army's actions, the Army Headquarters ordered the North China Garrison to create some incidents in North China. On the one hand, it will divert attention in China, and on the other hand, it will also create conditions for the implementation of the Tide Plan."
Having said this, he looked at Kimura, the division commander of the 31st Division on his left, and said, "Division Commander Kimura, your troops are stationed in the Marco Polo Bridge Defense Area, right?"
The commander of the Kimura Division is a man in his fifties, with a medium build and a crew cut. He looks very capable. When he saw the commander’s roll call, he stood up hurriedly and said, “Yes, your Excellency, Commander, currently the troops stationed in the Marco Polo Bridge area are
The first battalion of the Bangen Third Regiment of our 31st Division.
"Okay, then let's use this as a breakthrough!" Commander Dajiu Pingtian's finger fell heavily on the map, which was located at Wanping City by the Marco Polo Bridge.
Division commander Kimura suddenly stood upright and responded loudly, "Hai, Kimura will never let down the trust of the headquarters."
"Okay, I believe you will be able to win Wanping City successfully." Dajiu Pingtian nodded with satisfaction and said with appreciation, "In addition, Yin Rugen, who is located in the Tongzhou area, has promised to cooperate with us in declaring autonomy for eastern North China. This
It is a good opportunity, and with our army fully stationed in North China, it has created an unprecedented good opportunity."
Kimura nodded happily after hearing this, "That's great. As long as we occupy North China, it will open a door to China. By then, troops can continue to move in, and it will not be difficult to occupy the entire territory.
"
Dajiu Hirata shook his head, and then said, "It's not that simple. China has vast resources and a large population, and this nation contains a very terrifying potential. Once it breaks out, it will be very terrifying. If you want to destroy it, you need to be slow and slow.
, a little bit of assimilation.”
"Hai, Commander Yuan Yuan!" Kimura lowered his head and said.
Dajiu Hirata smiled, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go down, remember to complete your mission successfully."
"Understood, Your Majesty Commander, if this fails, all officers of the 31st Division will have their stomachs opened to express gratitude to the Emperor." Kimura said sternly with a ferocious light in his eyes.
Dajiu Hirata nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, then I will arrange the tasks and responsibilities of other troops."
All the officers stood up together and listened quietly to his orders!
An hour and a half later, when all the officers walked out of the conference room, the North China garrison began to move. The troops of the 31st Division began to mobilize frequently, quickly moving towards the vicinity of Peiping, and gradually approaching the troops stationed in Peiping and Tianjin.
The 92nd Army.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in North China became tense, especially the soldiers of the 92nd Army stationed there, who all became more vigilant and wary of these Japanese troops with evil intentions.
The 92nd Army was one of the original main forces of the Northwest Army. It was later placed under the jurisdiction of the Northeast Army Marshal. It played a great role in the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War and fought very bravely. Therefore, it was praised and loved by people across the country.
After the war, he was transferred to the Peiping area for garrison, and his military strength expanded rapidly. From less than 10,000 after the Battle of the Great Wall to 100,000, his strength was considered relatively strong.
Chen Dingyuan, commander of the 92nd Army, was one of the five tiger generals of the original Northwest Army. He was an elegant man and had the style of a general. Below him were Zhang Dingbang, He Jingjiu, Yu Zetian and other tiger generals.
The entire 92nd Army has three divisions, a total of twelve brigades, and thirty-six reinforced regiments. Each regiment has 2,500 men, which is equivalent to the strength of two ordinary regiments, and the weapons and equipment are also relatively comparable.
Well, one-third of the troops are equipped with German equipment, and their combat effectiveness is quite good.
With such a force stationed in North China, the Japanese naturally felt like they were in trouble and tried their best to get rid of them.
Therefore, in the past six months or so, the Japanese have created many incidents and put pressure on the Nanjing government, hoping to transfer the 92nd Army away from North China and achieve the effect of defeating the enemy without fighting.
Therefore, Commander Chen Dingyuan has been in a very difficult situation during this period. On the one hand, he has to deal with the unreasonable entanglement of the Japanese, and on the other hand, he has to persuade the Nanjing government.
However, the troops below had long complained. They saw the Japanese troops rampaging under their noses, but they could not make any counterattack, and they felt that they were about to be stifled.
Unfortunately, the order above was "No unauthorized shooting is allowed to avoid another war with the Japanese army." This made many commanders and soldiers of the army sigh.
In this way, the dark clouds of war approached little by little, covering the entire North China region!
