The "Japanese Peace Army" is a joke in the hearts of Guangzhou people because of all the above. When the Japanese Peace Army, dressed in white "mourning clothes (Guangzhou citizens' dialect)", first appeared, as they wished, Guangzhou people began to respond with rotten eggs and rotten vegetables. Gradually, they became accustomed to being greeted by thick phlegm. When they saw it again, it was just a sight at most.
"The Japanese have so many tricks up their sleeves."
"If I had known now, why bother then."
"The Japanese are really mean."
...At one time, Guangzhou citizens had the most praise for the Japanese Peace Army. But gradually, as the Japanese Peace Army persisted and could truly sincerely fight against the Japanese Peace Army, wise people could no longer sit back and watch. "The Japanese reflect on themselves so much. When you are laughing, have you ever thought, if it were you, would you be able to do it? I think that the word 'cheap' alone is not enough to describe this kind of behavior of the Japanese. We should see the Japanese people's endurance and bear the burden. Yes, Japan is the initiator of the war and should bear all responsibilities. But gentlemen, if our own weakness does not make them feel bullied, if our government and country are strong enough, the Japanese Do you dare to launch this war? Today, we are leading in the military, but tomorrow and in the future, will we be able to maintain this lead? Throughout the history of China and Japan, China has always been Japan's learning object before the Ming and Qing Dynasties. , but why after the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Japanese student surpassed the Chinese teacher and dared to easily provoke a war..."
This reflection, which was inspired by the reflections of the Japanese Peace Army, was published in the "Xuebingjun Times" and immediately aroused the resonance of many people, especially scholars. Regarding this war and the relationship between China and Japan, Since September 18th, Chinese scholars and politicians have had many such comparisons and reflections, but few have been so sharp and sharp. Therefore, once it came out, it immediately triggered a big discussion in the whole society. How to deal with the problem within China? Since September 18, there have been two extreme attitudes in Sino-Japanese relations. One is the moderates who have always advocated Confucianism to repay evil with virtue, and the other is the radicals who want to completely destroy Japan. This debate has never stopped. Today, when China has actually achieved military superiority, the moderates who once lost their voice have risen again, and articles criticizing each other have begun to appear in newspapers. From Ouyang Yun's perspective, it is really too early to talk about these issues now, "These people The standard is to eat enough to support yourself." However, because this actually affected even the lowest level of the people in the rear area, they would even argue about it while chatting, but he did not dare to take it lightly. After all, if the internal problems cannot be solved, how can we ensure that the whole people are united in resisting Japan? As a government, of course, we should take advantage of the situation in order to form a healthy ideological atmosphere.
"Chinese people have always had the mentality of a great country and a heavenly dynasty." These are the original words of the wise man, and this is the basis of the moderate's argument of repaying evil with kindness. In contrast, the theoretical basis of the radicals is more derived from cruel reality.
Ouyang Yun had made a decision before on how to deal with Japan after the war. Among them, garrisoning troops was inevitable, because otherwise there would be no guarantee to prevent the resurgence of Japanese militarism. The easiest way, of course, is to completely destroy Japan. However, in this world China is not alone, so I can only think about it.
In fact, Ouyang Yun did not need to be reminded by that "beautiful lady". Ouyang Yun had already realized that battlefield discipline was inappropriate. For enforcing battlefield discipline on the Japanese army on the battlefield, even if it would bring him the reputation of a executioner, and even be detained in the Hague Court, Ouyang Yun has never regretted it. Of course, for one moment and another, it is obviously too early to normalize battlefield discipline. After all, a considerable number of Japanese soldiers in China are new recruits, and many of their hands are not contaminated. Ouyang Yun definitely does not have this concept in his heart, whether the blood of the Chinese people can just let them go. Punishment measures must be in place, otherwise they will not be enough to form a deterrent. So what should be done specifically? Ouyang Yun has already made arrangements for this. At this time, you can see the forward-looking advantage of the time traveler. If you have not killed anyone, you have not committed a crime. Wrong, as long as you have set foot on Chinese soil, then you have committed a war crime. Then, accept the punitive Labor service is a matter of course. However, as the number of prisoners increases, this seems to have brought about another problem. What to do with these people after they have completed their labor service? They can't just let the tiger go back to the mountains, or help the Japanese government raise them in vain. At this time, Japan The appearance of the Peace Army was too timely.
When Yamamoto Isoroku launched the Hainan offensive, Ouyang Yun had already considered the idea of forming a Japanese army with Chinese elements by his own hands. Now that Takahashi Ryoko has taken the initiative to propose this matter, he is naturally happy to see it. its success,
Even though Ouyang Yun was in Chongqing, he still maintained the highest influence on the Xuebing Army. It was under his influence that Shaoshuai Zhang and He Zhengsheng came up with the idea of subduing the enemy without fighting.
When the report was sent, Ouyang Yun only saw the strength numbers of the Japanese army and the Korean Co-Prosperity Army reported above and immediately rejected it. The idea of subduing the enemy without fighting was a good one. As for the Korean prisoners, since there was already a Japanese Peace Army, then what would happen again? It is not a problem to form a Korean peace army, but the problem is that the current domestic food shortage can not be solved until the new harvest season in Indochina. Therefore, it is enough to leave a fifth of these devils and Korean sticks.
Of course, Ouyang Yun would not write this in the instructions. His reply was: Strategically, it is correct to underestimate the enemy, but we must not underestimate the enemy's combat power.
The idea of subduing the enemy without fighting was vetoed by Ouyang Yun, and the Wuhan encirclement and annihilation campaign was carried out according to the original plan. For the 11th Army and the affiliated Korean Communist Army, this meant that they would experience a survival competition. The Chinese air force, artillery force, tank force and infantry force were baptized four times to become the last fifth alive.
When He Zhengjian's troops launched a fierce attack on Hanyang, Li Jiayu and Marshal Zhang simultaneously launched a fierce attack on Houhu, Qingshan, Hongshan, and Huashan. Facing the three-dimensional land and air attacks of the Chinese army, the Japanese army lacked air defense weapons and anti-tank weapons. There was no resistance at all. By three o'clock that afternoon, these areas were successively captured by the Chinese army. As these surrounding areas were captured, this meant that Yokoyama Isamu and his more than 5,000 troops became to the last trapped beast,
At around ten o'clock that night, in the headquarters of the 11th Army in Hankou, after being able to clearly hear the Chinese-style shouts of killing, Yokoyama led about thirty officers in the headquarters and above to commit suicide by caesarean section. At this point, all the 11th Army had committed suicide. The army was exhausted, and the Wuhan siege and annihilation campaign finally came to an end with China's victory.
