For the emperor, this matter was a bigger blow than the Kwantung Army forcing him to appoint the crown prince. After all, although he was unwilling to do that, his safety was still guaranteed for the time being. But for now
This incident caused His Majesty the Emperor to panic immediately.
In his eyes, the Kwantung Army, which had always been invincible, was actually beaten to this point. Even the headquarters of the Kwantung Army was bombed. For him, it was more panic. The current Manchu Empire, although he
There is almost no place where he can make the decision. But in his eyes, it represents the only opportunity to revive the ancestral foundation. It also represents the safety and guarantee of his own life.
What if the Kwantung Army were defeated? Not only would the hope of reviving the ancestral foundation be completely ruined, but his own life would also be difficult to guarantee. Thinking of this, he even felt a chill in his heart. But he did not get the approval of the Kwantung Army to open this gate.
He couldn't get out, but he had no choice but to face the critical moment. He was extremely frightened, and the only thing he could rely on now was that the Kwantung Army must not forget about himself when it retreats.
The Emperor Kant, who was helped up from the carpet by his attendants, also lost interest in venting his anger at this time. He threw the crime tools in his hands on the ground, returned to his bedroom with a pale face, and closed the door tightly.
Only a few attendants were left standing there, looking at each other at a loss.
The Kwantung Army Headquarters naturally had no interest in taking care of what the emperor was thinking at this time. As a military commanding agency, the Kwantung Army Headquarters showed extremely high efficiency when faced with danger. During the Mengjiatun frontline encounter
By the third day of the bombing, the first batch of secret departments directly under the Kwantung Army Headquarters had already boarded the train and headed south to Fengtian.
And after waiting a week, when the ministers of various puppet Manchukuo ministries, who had always been regarded as memorial tablets, were still kept in the dark and knew nothing about the Kwantung Army transfer plan, came to work in the morning, they found that the masters around them
The powerful Japanese deputy with all the documents has long since disappeared. Among the extremely impressive office buildings built by various ministries, only the so-called Manchurian personnel remain.
All Japanese officials who hold real power have disappeared. Even many Japanese officials who came from Taiwan have disappeared. Along with these Japanese officials, there are also missing documents that were originally stored in the Central Bank of Manchukuo.
A large amount of gold, silver, foreign currency, diamonds and other priceless precious materials.
The Kwantung Army, who was familiar with the process of plucking geese, naturally would not let go of these wealth. In addition to all the gold and silver reserves of the entire Puppet Manchukuo Central Bank, large quantities of banknotes were also transferred to Fengtian. After the intense work, the so-called
The strongest treasury in Asia is already empty except for some small denomination coins that are too heavy to be moved easily.
To put it bluntly, if the Japanese senior officials of the Puppet Manchukuo Central Bank who have moved to Fengtian do not allocate funds from Fengtian, all the senior Puppet Manchukuo officials in Xinjing will be hungry. Because at this time, the Puppet Manchukuo Central Bank
The little money left in his treasury is not even enough for half a month's salary.
Along with these officials and valuable materials, there were also some corporate headquarters that controlled the economic destiny of the Puppet Manchukuo such as Manchuria Railway. After more than a week of intense work, all the Japanese in high positions in Xinjing, except for a few
Except for the soldiers, all of them have gone south to Fengtian.
A week later, in the entire new capital city, except for the ministers of various puppet Manchukuo ministries who stayed with the Kwantung Army and advanced and retreated together, the once luxurious and majestic office buildings of various ministries were already empty. The Kwantung Army was also kept in the dark.
The ministers of the various ministries were at a loss for a long time facing the empty office building. Then they remembered to question Tadayuki Kokai, the deputy director of the General Affairs Department of the State Council who stayed in Xinjing, but did not receive any response.
After Tadayuki Kokai failed, and he really didn’t have the courage to question the puppet Manchukuo ministers at the Kwantung Army Headquarters, he could only enter the palace to get some news from the emperor. But he didn’t expect that there wasn’t even a gate to the palace.
When I entered, I was blocked back by Yasuo Yoshioka, the official who had just returned from a meeting at the Kwantung Army Headquarters.
After Yoshioka Yasuo read out the so-called edict of His Majesty the Emperor to appoint the Crown Prince to these puppet Manchukuo ministers, and announced an order from the Kwantung Army Headquarters to strictly prohibit these people from leaving Xinjing, he sent them all home.
.And the emperor’s face was not allowed to be seen at all.
In order to prevent these people who cherish their own lives from leaving Xinjing without authorization, the imperial minister also sent the military police stationed at the palace to confiscate all their cars in the name of military needs, and each of them was given a temporary car from the street.
The conscripted rickshaws were in trouble. As for what these puppet Manchukuo ministers would think in their hearts, that was not something that Yoshioka Yasuo should consider.
Compared with the despair of others, Zang Shiyi, the former chairman of Liaoning Province, who was the chairman of the Puppet Manchukuo Senate, fell silent when he saw that the streets were full of Japanese military police under martial law. The puppets in the new capital city
The Manchu army had all been transferred out of the city long ago and was guarded by the Japanese army. Even Emperor Kant's imperial guards were not spared and were all transferred out of the city.
The original puppet Manchukuo troops in Xinjing City, like most of the puppet Manchurian troops in the Japanese-occupied areas at this time, had been mostly disarmed by the Kwantung Army, except for a few troops organized by Koreans and led by Japanese officers. A few were considered
Reliable troops were converted into unarmed engineers and brought to the front to be guarded and built by the Kwantung Army.
The rest were imprisoned in the military camp and were not allowed to come out even half a step. A considerable number of them were transferred to the Jehol area to serve as security guards, and to Hebei and Shandong areas within the pass to cooperate with the Japanese army in clearing up the local areas.
Anti-Japanese armed forces. In fact, all security in Manchuria is currently handled by the Kwantung Army.
The reason why some of the puppet Manchukuo troops who were considered loyal and reliable were transferred to the Kwantung Army was because the Kwantung Army believed that these people had been frightened out of their courage to fight against the well-equipped Anti-Japanese Alliance. They were transferred to destroy the 18th Group Army with poor equipment and insufficient ammunition.
The troops are still good. In addition, the puppet army in North China is not strong in combat effectiveness, and the people's hearts are extremely unstable compared with the puppet Manchu army.
Although these pseudo-North China security forces supported by the Japanese invaders had a large establishment, their combat effectiveness was extremely low. They had become an important source of weapons and ammunition for the Eighteenth Group Army in Guannei. Although the Japanese army was very angry about this, in view of the lack of troops, they still
I need the help of these people so I have to endure it.
Although various methods have been adopted to strengthen the control of these security forces, especially on ammunition and equipment, the control has become increasingly tight. However, except for the enthusiasm of these people when cooperating with the Japanese army in their raids, in real battles, their combat effectiveness
But they could never get up. They were often annihilated in groups and battalions. Weapons and ammunition had become an important source of troops for the 18th Army.
The puppet Manchukuo army performed poorly in last year's battle, and even the entire regiment collapsed and surrendered as soon as they came into contact. This made the Kwantung Army extremely angry with this unit that they had trained by themselves. After disbanding, they were worried about these people who had completed their training.
Will defect to the Resistance Alliance.
The Kwantung Army simply selected some die-hard elements from the puppet Manchukuo army, which had been frightened by the strong firepower and combat effectiveness of the Anti-Japanese Alliance on the Northeast battlefield and could not be put to great use, and transferred them to the Kwantung to supplement the North China Security Army.
It was used to fight against the 18th Army in the North China battlefield to free up the Japanese troops in North China to deal with other battlefields.
Although the Kwantung Army operates these things secretly, the old traitors at the top of the Puppet Manchu Army have no idea at all. But as an old man in the Northeast Army, Zang Shiyi, who still has some old subordinates in the Puppet Manchu Army, is quite aware of this.
.He tasted a hint of unusual meaning from it.
Moreover, Zang Shiyi also knew that the Kwantung Army had begun to recruit a large number of Koreans from the Puppet Manjian Island Province and Mongolians from the Xing'an Provinces, and gradually began to replace the Manchus who were already very unreliable in their hearts. These people, especially
Compared with the Han people in the puppet Manchukuo army, Koreans would be more reliable for the Japanese army. After all, North Korea had been occupied by the Japanese army for decades, and the so-called degree of naturalization was quite high.
Looking at the densely packed Japanese military police on the streets and the several Korean troops transferred into Xinjing by the Kwantung Army, Zang Shiyi took a long time to tell the man next to him wearing the uniform of a Puppet Manchukuo second lieutenant, and after telling him what happened today,
Said: "At this time, the Kwantung Army will evacuate all the deputy ministers who hold real power from Xinjing. I am afraid that there may be a big action in the near future. Go back and tell your superiors so that they can prepare as soon as possible just in case."
"A few days ago, there was an explosion on the Mengjiatun line south of Xinjing. The Japanese said that the explosion was caused by improper operation of the ammunition depot and a fire. However, the Japanese's rhetoric can only deceive the ordinary people. They want to deceive me. They
The measurement is still a little off."
"Although I served as the chairman of Liaoning Province for two years when I was a young marshal, I was also a graduate of the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School and served as the Lieutenant General Chief of Staff of the Northeast Security Command. Although I have no choice but to do so now
Traitor, but my eyes are not blind yet. I can still hear the difference between bombs in air raids and explosions in ammunition depots."
Having said this, Zang Shiyi turned his head and looked at the second lieutenant and said: "I just want to know whether those planes are flown by your own pilots or Soviet pilots. What do you use to communicate with those planes by Soviet or Russian pilots?"
Did the Americans get it in exchange? Did they sell out the rights and interests of the Northeast?"
"I have been the chairman of Liaoning Province for two years. Although I have not made many achievements, I still have a good understanding of the situation in the entire Northeast. Although the North Manchuria region is rich in resources and has a vast territory, its industry is far inferior to that of the former commander-in-chief.
South Manchuria, managed with great effort by Shuai and the Japanese.”
"Furthermore, the population of Northern Manchuria is far less than that of Southern Manchuria. The terrain is mainly composed of deep mountains and old forests, undeveloped wastelands and swamps. Relying solely on the population of Northern Manchuria and its previous industrial base, at least within five to ten years
, if there were no special circumstances, you would not be able to build an airplane at all.
"Back then, Commander's conditions were much better than yours. However, relying on the financial resources of the entire Northeast for many years, we were able to barely achieve self-sufficiency in light weapons and ammunition. However, your current conditions are far inferior to those of Commander Back then. If you want to
It may be difficult to achieve self-sufficiency in the military industry."
