Puyi's Imperial Guard has existed since the establishment of the Puppet Manchukuo. However, according to the situation known to Okamura Neiji, the so-called Imperial Guard around Puyi now will definitely not be the original one. When the Puppet Manchukuo was first established, Although Pu Yi is the "Emperor", the size of the Imperial Guard is only about 300 people. But now, the size of the Imperial Guard is about 15,000 people. The number of people has increased fifty times. Even if there are some who have taken in the puppets, The reason for the desertion of the National Defense Force was due to the fact that the number of people expanded at an abnormal speed. Therefore, Okamura Neiji was sure that there must be some unknown trick here.
Whenever he thinks about this, Okamura always sighs: "The Chinese people have ulterior motives." However, because Puyi's Imperial Guard has actually become the most powerful force on his side, and he has prepared Cooperate with the Chinese government, so even if he knew that the Chinese government must have mixed a lot of sand into the Puppet Manchukuo Guards, he could only keep this secret in his stomach.
"Winter is coming, and we must return to the mainland as soon as possible. However, if we cannot gain control, the North China Front Army will probably be last in line." After thinking for a while, he felt that he really needed help under the current situation, so he Asked: "What is the certain number? This bastard Wang Changyun killed one of my brigade, which was the most powerful force under my command..."
"The strongest in combat power, and I have the nerve to say that I couldn't last even half a day under Wang Yuanyuan. This is also called the strongest in combat power." Pan Xiu'an cursed in his heart, but there was a look of struggle on his face: "Three thousand people , No more, you should know that after the training of the instructors we hired, the combat effectiveness of the Guards has become much better than it used to be."
Okamura's face twitched. Okamura might not be very clear about the Imperial Guard before, but now, "Instructor, isn't it just the wolf fang? Ouyang Yun won't stuff the wolf fang in, right? In that case, China What do you want to do? Marriage is probably not going to be simple." With this thought in his mind, Okamura raised his right hand: "Five thousand, it cannot be less than five thousand, and I want to guarantee absolute command authority."
"Five thousand is already beyond my authority. I have to ask His Majesty for instructions on this. However, it is very possible to obtain absolute command authority. As long as you ensure that their guns will not point towards the west, they will obey all your orders. "
"Don't hesitate to kill and set fire, these bastards." Okamura roared in his heart, but the expression on his face remained unchanged, and he said seriously: "Okay, then I will wait for your news."
The battlefield of the Korean War changed three times every day, and it was a bit interesting when it happened on the border between China and North Korea. After all, there were still many retired soldiers in the so-called local reinforcements at that time, who had withdrawn from the Japanese front-line troops due to overage or other reasons. The Japanese soldiers' combat power may have declined, but they definitely lacked the basic qualities that a soldier should possess. Therefore, although they were bound to lose every battle and suffered heavy casualties, under their leadership, the Japanese army was still able to maintain the front line and was always able to Persisting until the end of a war, and with all the Japanese dead and wounded, the Korean War became hopeless. What often happened was that the Chinese army started firing artillery, and the Japanese began to flee, and even started fighting. Later, the real threats to Shan Renxiong and Zhang Xueliang were the Chinese puppet army and the Korean Communist Army. The Japanese army was no longer on the stage.
Due to the instructions from the Supreme Command, which believed that the current Japanese army was already vulnerable (in fact, it was mainly due to the progress of Li Daitao's plan), the momentum of the Chinese army's offensive weakened, and the Japanese army gained a precious breathing space. The offensives of the Group Army and the Eighth Group Army were suspended, but the Northeast Japanese Liberation Army and the Far East Group Army did not stop their offensive. On the Northeast Japanese Liberation Army side, Zhang Xuyun had the purpose of causing internal friction among the Japanese and wished that all the Japanese would die in the battle, so he could He acted recklessly without caring about the strength of his troops; on the side of the Far East Army, Zhang Zizhong wanted to clear away the hostile forces on the northern coast of the Sea of Japan so as to create a good rear environment for his Far East Army.
The Chinese army's offensive momentum has slowed down, which was originally a good thing for the lingering Japanese army. However, as the first wave of Siberian cold wave descended on the land of Korea, Yamada Otsuzo, Nagano Osamu and Umezu Yoshijiro Regardless, including Okamura Neiji, who had reached a secret agreement with the Chinese government, their hearts tightened.
The Japanese have colonized the Korean Peninsula for nearly a hundred years. Naturally, they know the climate and environment of Korea. Winter in Korea is not a place for people to stay. However, when the local reinforcements came over, they were equipped with autumn clothes, plus local resources. There is no ability to provide them with the supplies they need in the cold winter in time. Therefore, Yamada Otosan and others know very well that if they cannot change this situation in a short time and obtain sufficient supplies through other means, they will not want China. The army attacks, and the cold winter will kill them.
Yamada Otsuzo and others were not sure whether the Chinese Supreme Command had taken into account North Korea's climate factors, but when they saw aerial fortresses appearing one after another on the Chinese positions, and these aerial fortresses began to airdrop a large number of packages. By that time, they knew that the Chinese were already preparing for the winter offensive.
"We can no longer take chances and let the situation continue like this. Without the Chinese attacking, we will be dragged down by the Korean winter." During a conference call, Nagano Shushen first raised this point, and then he suggested Convene a high-level meeting to discuss whether to stay or leave.
Because the so-called resistance outside the homeland has become a joke, so even if Nagano Shushen wanted to endorse Tojo Hideki out of political considerations, now he must face reality, that is, give up North Korea and join forces with Japan.
After putting down the phone, Okamura Neiji immediately asked Pan Xiuan to come over and said to him: "Nagano Shushen can't wait any longer. Of course, this may also be the decision of the superior soldier. I'm afraid they will take action against me during this meeting."
Pan Xiuan: "This is for sure. Facts have proved that the decisive battle outside the mainland was a wrong decision. If Tojo Hideki still wants to be his prime minister, he must find a scapegoat or simply eliminate the dissidents in the top management. You have no other choice on this issue."
"Are you ready for my troops? I think I need it now."
"No problem. In order to ensure your safety, His Majesty has sent over his most trusted captain of the Shadow Guard. Believe me, with them here, Commander Nagano and the others have no chance of winning."
