Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-Five: The Ruthless Li Shouxin
However, Major General Takahashi Shigejukei once explained that these troops were mainly sent by the Mongolian Autonomous Army. The main force of the Japanese army was to prevent the Anti-Japanese Alliance in the north from moving southward, and secondly to deal with the eighth theater of the frontal battlefield. This is
In this battle, we will not and cannot send too many troops to participate.
In this battle, the Mongolian army could only mobilize some troops to participate in the battle, and their main role was to supervise the battle. Therefore, he had to show at least superficial respect to these commanders of the Mongolian autonomous army. Although
The senior officials of the Mongolian garrison did not believe that the so-called Mongolian Autonomous Army, which even controlled the daily quantity of ammunition issued in the hands of Japanese military advisers, would come back to bite them.
If they really had the guts, they would not have sold themselves to the Empire of Japan in order to seek glory and wealth. But in order to stabilize these high-level puppet troops and make them serve the empire's strategy wholeheartedly, at least on the surface, they should be given proper respect.
Necessary.
With the special explanation from Chief of Staff Takahashi, and considering that he had accepted 10,000 yen, at least on the surface it was quite interesting. And I heard that the deputy commander-in-chief has always been very generous, so I have made up my mind now.
How did you get more out of this guy? Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa was not too stiff before.
But at this time, Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa, who was exhausted by the Kwantung Army who was exhausted by the sharp deterioration of the battle situation on the Linxi battlefield, and who was overwhelmed by telegrams urging action one after another, did not care about Major General Takahashi's giving appropriate advice.
Respect the instructions. In an extremely tough tone, the Mongolian army must launch a pursuit tomorrow morning. At all costs, catch up with the anti-Union detachment and eliminate them.
Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa, who was forced to become anxious by his superiors, threatened that if the Mongolian army was hesitant and slow to act, it would be dealt with as if it was non-cooperative with the imperial army. If the Anti-Union detachment was let go, the troops who had left the border would be
Tubal Road received the food and other materials they urgently needed. Then the imperial army would severely punish all the Mongolian Autonomous Army participating in the war. Although he did not say what the punishment would be, at least it would not look too good.
Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa's firm attitude and threatening tone made Li Shouxin and several division commanders look at each other helplessly. They all felt that there must be an ambush ahead, but no one had the ability to deny the emperor's decision.
If he really pissed off the Japanese, he would really have to walk around without food.
The several military division commanders of the Mongolian Autonomous Army present here naturally know what will happen to those who do not cooperate with the Japanese army. They do not want to be that unlucky guy. Their many years of official career tell them that the Tokugawa Lieutenant Colonel in front of them
The threat in the tone was obviously not meant to scare them. The Japanese were very harsh in dealing with the puppet troops who were not in a good position to fight.
All the puppet generals set their sights on Li Shouxin. Li Shouxin looked at Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa's murderous face and nodded helplessly. Knowing some inside information, he knew very well that he wanted to deceive him again this time.
It is basically impossible to pass the customs. The Japanese in front of me is not easy to fool.
In the past, I could use the excuse that the opponent was powerful and that I was not the opponent. Moreover, facing the opponent's tanks and heavy artillery, Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa also became timid, so he agreed to just get off the slope and divert his attention. But now the opponent is just that little
If the Japanese cower in terms of military strength, they will disarm themselves without hesitation.
If he sends troops alone, he can find an opportunity to kill him, and then find an excuse to go back and fool the senior officials of the Mongolian garrison. Presumably, those Japanese military advisers in his own army who have received a large amount of money from him will not betray him. For
For these Japanese who have long lost the courage to fight on the battlefield, they will not cut off their own financial resources.
As long as they can find a decent excuse, these Japanese will also excuse themselves. And the senior officials of the Mongolian garrison, if they are still valuable, I am afraid they will not pursue it too much. And if Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa
If you had a strong background in the Japanese army, you would have already gone to the frontal battlefield to experience and be promoted, and you would not be sent to the garrison in Mongolia to chew the sand.
But now there are not only his own men here, but also three divisions of his old rivals. The most important thing is that there is also a cavalry brigade of the regular Japanese army and several infantry squadrons. After so many years, Li Shouxin knows that his troops
What is the true state of virtue?
Not to mention so many regular Japanese troops, even that cavalry brigade, all of our troops together are no match. What's more, if they really fall out with the Japanese army, those Japanese consultants will not stand on their side no matter how greedy they are for money. They
If I were not myself, I would not betray the Japanese.
And all of his supplies and ammunition are controlled by these Japanese consultants. Each gun of his subordinates only has fifteen rounds of ammunition, so even if he wants to take a bite back, he does not have the capital. Besides, although his subordinates are all direct descendants brought up by himself.
, but these years of being a traitor have long since left them without the ability to be bloodthirsty.
I don't have the guts to fight the Japanese desperately and lend them eight courages. What's more, who knows if any of them want to replace me? These people are not all old brothers who followed me to the enemy. Many of them are still
They were recruited later by themselves. In the face of common interests, these people may still be able to stand on the same line as themselves.
But it is simply impossible to say that these people who stand with me because of their own interests are of the same mind as me. If they betray me, how many of my subordinates will be able to go with me? For Li Shouxin
To be honest, I don’t have much foundation in my heart at all.
Fighting to the death is not his creed, but he can't explain it without fighting. If he doesn't come up with something this time, the Japanese won't be able to forgive him. But if he does what the Japanese ask him to do, he will have the strength he has worked so hard to accumulate.
, but the losses will be huge. But if you don’t do what they ask?
Thinking about the consequences once he completely offended the Japanese, Li Shouxin now somewhat hated himself. Why didn't he follow Marshal Tang to retreat into the customs, but stayed to be a traitor and a thug for the Japanese? If he had withdrawn and entered the customs.
, and there is no need to mix it into what it is now.
Just thinking about the consequences of the withdrawal of his old colleagues from the Northeast Army, he suddenly felt very lucky. Fortunately, he now had a certain strength on hand, although ten thousand men and guns were nothing, and the equipment was nothing.
It's a bit bad, but the good thing is that at least for now, this armed force is still looking after itself.
After entering the customs with the young marshal, they were transferred to pieces. Where the fighting was the fiercest, they were transferred there. The troops were exhausted and there was no replenishment. Weapons, equipment and ammunition had to be found by ourselves. Once killed,
There is not even the most basic pension. If the daughter-in-law remarries, she has to bring her mother-in-law with her.
The losses of the troops were great, and they could easily be compared with the old brothers of the Northeast Army who had been peeping at the Central Army for a long time. No matter what, I now have nearly ten thousand troops. Although the equipment is not as good as that of my old brothers.
The opponent is the national army in Suiyuan, but Haolai is also stronger than those Tubal soldiers.
And at least, the Japanese are relatively generous with money. What I have made in the past few years can be regarded as rich. Without the trust of the Japanese, all this will be completely lost. Anyway, Tubal Road
There, he participated in the clearing of his troops in Chahar many times. He had too many blood debts on his hands, and they would not forgive him.
As for the national government, in the past, they either dismantled the no-name army to pieces, or they were pushed to the front to block the attention? When I was in the Northeast Army, I was a no-name, and others looked at me too much. Soldiers
Replenishment and supplies of weapons and ammunition are always ranked last.
Anyway, when you get to the government, haven't you had enough of the no-name brand in the past? You don't want to be looked down upon by others anymore, let alone stand out to others. Anyway, for you, it's not an escape route at all.
At the moment, I have no other way out except to go all the way with the Japanese.
After looking at the dark mountains outside the tent, and then looking back at his subordinates and the murderous Tokugawa Lieutenant Commander for a long time, Li Shouxin gritted his teeth. Grandma, those mud-legged guys have guns and cannons in their hands, so take them in your own hands.
They are not fire sticks, they are just a battalion of infantry, so what if they have tanks? Those tanks cannot change the situation of the battle.
Didn't I never see tanks in the old Northeastern Army? Didn't Fengjun also dispatch tanks during the battle at Nankou? But what about those tanks? Aren't they also helpless against the Northwest Army? Aren't they also under the attack of the Northwest Army?
, was beaten and suffered heavy losses?
My current equipment is much better than that of the Northwest Army. The Northwest Army was not afraid of the scraps of copper and iron, so I am still afraid of these tanks? And since Huanggangliang is surrounded by mountainous areas, these tanks
Tanks are like scrap metal and cannot play a big role.
Without those few tanks, the opponent can only have the strength of a strengthened battalion at best. Even if his subordinates are all rubbish, they can still be beaten to death. Even if they are the Tubal or the Resistance Alliance, they are tenacious, but in terms of military strength
The gap is just a gap, nothing else can make up for it. So what if they set up an ambush? I have more soldiers.
Thinking of this, Li Shouxin turned around and looked behind him at his subordinates, and Lieutenant General Tokugawa said harshly: "Tomorrow morning we will have dinner on time at seven o'clock, and we will enter the mountain on time at eight o'clock. The entire army will take the Sixth Division as the forward, and the rest of the troops will
In the sequence of seven, four, and eight, each division will follow up, and the second division will finish at the end of the marching sequence."
"The first division serves as the guard for the general headquarters and artillery. After the sixth division leaves the valley, it will cover the general headquarters, the imperial army and the artillery passing through the valley. Each division enters the mountain and marches at an interval of 500 meters. At the same time, all the troops are concentrated
Artillery is deployed at the mountain pass to cover the troops entering the mountain. Once there is an ambush in the mountains, the artillery fire is concentrated to cover the troops' rapid passage."
"After each division enters the mountain, ignore the mountains on both sides, and do not conduct any searches. Pass through the valley at maximum speed. If you capture the Anti-Japanese Alliance car convoy, I will get a heavy reward when you go back. If you can't catch it, I will
Those who are afraid of fighting will be severely punished. Those who refuse to move forward will have their division commanders dismissed on the spot, and their regiment commanders and lower officers will be shot on the spot. I personally organize and supervise the battle team and will never tolerate those who are disadvantaged in the battle."
