Isamu Yokoyama talked freely, while Neji Okamura just smiled and said nothing. Isamu Yokoyama boasted for a while and felt quite bored. Moreover, he was also a little tired. Yokoyama Isamu's recent performance was not a true reflection of his personality. In fact, he and Okamura Neji have a lot in common. In terms of appearance, both of them wear glasses. They seem to be gentle and polite, but in fact they are cunning to the core. In addition, in terms of their stance towards China, the two of them are very different. The strategic ideas are similar. They all advocate using China to control China and like to develop the puppet army. Of course, Okamura Neiji was too eager to make meritorious deeds during the Battle of Madang and behaved a bit abnormally. As a result, Ouyang Yun seized the opportunity. Not only did Anqing, the Japanese aviation forward base, turn into chaos, but they also almost completely wiped out the 106th Division and the 112th Division.
Yokoyama Isamu was a famous wise general in the Kwantung Army, and the reason why he behaves like a reckless man now must have a deep intention. However, he frequently challenges Okamura like a bull in heat, but Okamura It was as if he had been castrated and just refused to take the fight. There was nothing he could do about it. Every time he was provoked, he was just making himself angry.
Yokoyama Isamu stopped talking, and Okamura Neiji spoke. He smiled and said: "Yokoyama-kun, your mouth is dry, so drink some tea first to moisten your throat. As for me, I will call Major General Tokugawa." ,"
After saying that, he picked up the phone and called the headquarters of the First Aviation Corps. He found Tokugawa Haotoshi and exchanged a few words with him. He asked: "Tokugawa-kun, have any reconnaissance planes discovered that large forces of the Xuebing Army have entered Jiangxi recently?" ""No, but I believe that the Xuebing Army must have invaded Jiangxi in large numbers. Mr. Okamura, you know that the Xuebing Army's military uniforms have excellent camouflage properties, and our reconnaissance planes do not dare to fly too low, so, It is normal for the reconnaissance plane to be unable to detect the target. ""Then how did you judge that the student army has entered Jiangxi in large numbers?" Okamura said, his face became solemn, and Yokoyama Isamu, who was listening, finally Concentrate your mind and become concentrated, "We were shot down a reconnaissance plane five days ago. We found the wreckage of the fighter plane afterwards. It was shot down by anti-aircraft fire when we found it. Your Excellency, you should know what this means,"
Okamura Neiji naturally knows that if the size of the army is not large enough, weapons such as anti-aircraft artillery will not appear at all. Moreover, the cadet army has even brought out anti-aircraft artillery. Does that mean that they have to repeat the horse attack again? When the battle begins, there will be a decisive battle with the 11th Army.
"Thank you, Tokugawa-kun. Please continue to send reconnaissance planes. Although there will be certain dangers, they are very important to the next actions of our 11th Army. Please."
"Hai, you are too polite. This is what we should do. I have long looked forward to avenging Anqing."
After hanging up the phone, Okamura Neiji looked at Yokoyama Isamu and said: "Hengshan-kun, you have also heard that the people entering Gan this time may be the main force of the Xuebing Army. Before Madang and the Xuebing Army fight, you and I will My mood now should be the same. I am very unconvinced. I always feel that no matter how strong the Xuebing Army is, it is still a Chinese army. And as warlords, can they be stronger than the Central Army of the Nationalist Government? But..." He shook his head with a wry smile. He continued: "You also know everything that happened later. We were actually defeated, and we lost two divisions and more troops."
Okamura Neji and Yokoyama Isamu have been in contact for a long time. Although they have always been very polite and even humble to him, they have never been so sincere as today. It is said that Yokoyama Isamu should be very moved and finally be influenced. However, this is not the case. After such a situation, Isamu Yokoyama still looked extremely contemptuous of Okamura and said: "Your Excellency Okamura, you are also a well-known military general in the Japanese Empire. How can you be so unambitious? Don't worry, although I urgently want to A battle with Ouyang Yun will destroy his undefeated myth. However, I will abide by the orders of the headquarters. Okay, now you have decided to call me to inform me. I have to go back and cheer up my subordinates now. It is fate. The enemy has appeared, we really need to be well prepared..." With the last words, Yokoyama Isamu seemed to be talking to himself, and this made Okamura's face finally turn gloomy,
Watching Yokoyama Isamu leave with his hands behind his back, he gritted his teeth and whispered: "Although it is often only the Chinese who use foreign enemies to eliminate competitors, this time, for the future of the empire, I must do the same, Yokoyama Isamu , since you are eager to fight Ouyang Yun, then simply use Jiangxi as the front line to attack the student army."
That night, a telegram was sent from Madang and traveled across the ocean to Tokyo. Just as Isamu Yokoyama was not convinced by Okamura Neiji, Okamura Neiji was not convinced by Den Shunroku and decided to fight with the Xuebing Army in Jiangxi. He did not ask for instructions and report to his direct superior, Shunroku Denba, but directly contacted the Minister of War, Seishiro Sakagaki, without him.
Two days later, Isamu Yokoyama received the desired reply. Seishiro Sakagaki sent a telegram to the China Expeditionary Force Headquarters, the South China Front Army Headquarters and the 11th Army Headquarters, informing them of a resolution passed by the base camp yesterday: The main forces of the navy and army will be concentrated in the near future to carry out a devastating blow to the Xuebing Army. Since the 11th Army is fighting against the Xuebing Army in Jiangxi, it will be the vanguard force of this combat operation, and their mission is, In addition to driving the Xuebing Army's troops to assist Jiangxi back to Guangzhou, they also need to seize Yingtan and Shangrao, which were lost in the last battle between Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi, in order to cut off the Xuebing Army's possible northward retreat. At the end of the telegram, there was a promotion The order stated that after discussion, the military headquarters decided to promote the commander of the 11th Army, Okamura Neiji, to the rank of general.
On the day he received this telegram, Okamura Neiji gave an order to Amanami Jutaro to let the remaining 33rd Division hold on to Takayasu City and abandon the breakout plan. At the same time, he also called Tokugawa Yoshitoshi's First Air Corps, Asking them to support Amami's 33rd Division in guarding Gao'an, he then summoned the division commander of the 11th Division, Yamamuro Munetake, the division commanders of the 106th Division, Nakajima Seimura and Yokoyama Isamu, and while conveying the order from the base camp, Arrange specific combat tasks,
Just when Okamura Neji was sharpening his sword and preparing for a big fight, in China, Yu Jishi contacted Ouyang Yun. He drove to the nearest town, and then with the help of the local Fox Tong, and Ouyang Yun had a phone call, and Yu Jishi, Xue Yue, and Luo Zhuoying all thought at first that the Xuebing Army was the main force entering Jiangxi, so although they were surprised that they could kill a Japanese major general with one attack, they were also surprised. Not too surprised. Among the three, Xue Yue and Yu Jishi had had in-depth contact with Ouyang Yun, and had personally witnessed the extraordinary things of Xuebingjun, so they had this reaction. However, when Yu Jishi Ouyang Yun learned that the student army that entered northern Jiangxi was just a guerrilla force under his command, and he was stimulated.
"Not a regular army."
"no."
"It's unreasonable. Brother Ouyang, you are so unkind. Do you know how much sacrifice we made to win Gao'an? Well, we have worked so hard here to maim the kid and are about to reap the harvest. Come out Gathering fruit."
Yu Jishi used some accusatory words, but his tone was ridiculing.
Ouyang Yun burst into laughter and said honestly: "Brother, you really can't blame me for this, because the commander-in-chief of this combat operation is Chu Tiange. Well, Commander Chu has many subordinates. It turns out that we are all martyrs from the Northeast and North China areas who voluntarily resisted Japan. Many of them have bad habits. It’s not like any blind person has offended you or Commander Xue."
"No, no, I really didn't come to you to accuse you..." Yu Jishi told the battle plan of the ninth theater. After hearing this, Ouyang Yun thought about it and replied: "Brother, I don't see any problem. , However, the person in charge in Jiangxi now is Commander Chu Tiange Chu. I have to talk to him first before I can give you a final reply. I will contact him as soon as possible and I will probably give him a letter tomorrow. What do you think? ""Okay, I'll take it and wait for the good news,"
Ouyang Yun contacted Chu Tiange that day. When Chu Tiange heard that the Central Army was willing to join forces with him, he naturally had no objection. He only made one point: Brother, we are a guerrilla force with limited strength and the area that needs to be taken care of is too large. This main force, especially one that requires a large amount of cannon fodder, we cannot be used as such."
Xuebingjun's communication technology has made new progress. It is now possible to achieve medium and long-distance calls through the construction of ground base stations, and coupled with walkie-talkies, as long as the base station signal coverage is within the coverage area, communication between two points can be achieved. Dialogue, and this will undoubtedly be of great benefit to improving the command system of the Xuebing Army.
Someone in Chongqing was too cruel. He united all the anti-Japanese forces around him under the banner of national anti-Japanese resistance. However, he favored one and the other. He said he liked someone and wanted his troops to be the main force, but in fact he used the other party as cannon fodder. , As a result, during the anti-Japanese war, the local warlords fought less and less, and the Central Army fought more and more. Although this was a good thing from the overall perspective, it did not happen to me. This Xue Yue was the confidant and favorite general of Chongqing. It was reasonable for Chu Tiange to be worried, but he didn't think about it. His eldest brother was a master who was more stingy and vengeful than himself. He always took revenge and was very protective of his shortcomings. How could he give in knowing that there was a pit of fire in front of him? My brothers jumped in,
Ouyang Yun laughed at that time: "We are naturally not the main force. The division of labor has been made clear. You just need to bet on the enemy's retreat and then slow down their reinforcements. Tiange, it sounds difficult, but as long as you don't want to It's not too difficult to gamble to death all at once. Besides, if you really can't hold on, don't you still have Tielin Fei? Well, while ensuring your own safety, kill as many Japanese as possible. In addition, if When friendly forces are in danger, if you can stretch out your hands, do so. After all, we are all anti-Japanese."
"yes."
