After the Japanese army reoccupied Cang County, Liu Yimin felt incredible.
Liu Yimin thought that after the Japanese army captured Cang County, they would inevitably carry out crazy sweeps on the borders of Hebei, Shandong, central Hebei, and southern Hebei again. Therefore, Liu Yimin sent our army to the borders of Hebei, Shandong, western Shandong, southern Hebei, and central Hebei. Therefore, Liu Yimin sent his troops to the borders of Hebei, Shandong, western Shandong, southern Hebei, and central Hebei.
After the instructions were issued, it pointed out: "After the Japanese captured Cang County, because the main force of our army had not been captured, we would have to concentrate our efforts to sweep away our base and restore the occupation and rule of Hebei-Shandong border, western Shandong, southern Hebei and central Hebei.
All departments of our army in the region should be vigilant, closely monitor the movements of the Japanese army, and strictly prevent the Japanese army from raiding. For example, the Japanese army concentrated in fighting in a certain direction of our direction, Zeng Zhongsheng and Cai Zhong were responsible for unified command of the Hebei-Shandong border, western Shandong, southern Hebei, and Hebei.
, adopt the tactics of fighting north to the south, fighting north to the north, fighting east to the west to the east to the east to smash the Japanese attack. I stand by the time the troops in eastern Shandong, southern Shandong and northeast Anhui will cooperate in combat."
However, the intelligence investigated by various troops made Liu Yimin feel puzzled. First, the Sixth Division and the 16th Division urgently evacuated Suxian and Fuyang, saying that the train went south and returned the 11th Army. The defense of the Fuyang area was left to the association.
The 23rd Division on Fanglonghai Road was immediately followed by the First Division, the Second Division returned to the Kwantung Army, and then the Guard Division. The Fifth Division was transferred back to the country to rest and replenish, and the Armored Brigade was
The regiment was also urgently transferred to the central China region and joined the 11th Army of the Central China Expeditionary Army. According to intelligence, the Japanese army has been mobilized frequently in recent days, with wheels rolling on Jinpu Road and Pinghan Road, and all troops along the railway have strengthened their vigilance and strict ***
Transportation ensures the safety of the army's passage.
These changes of the Japanese army were actually based on the historical trajectory. In history, the Japanese army had issued combat orders to capture Nanchang at this time, and the Sixth Division and the Sixteenth Division were also the main force to capture Nanchang.
The three divisions of the country had not entered the pass in a system in history, and were busy preparing for war against the Soviet Union at this time. As for the Guards Division and the Fifth Division, there was no division in Japan.
The troops returned to China for rest and rest, and for guarding.
What Liu Yimin couldn't understand was that history had changed so much. At the beginning, the Japanese army also deployed as the attitude of not giving up until the Eighth Route Army instructors was swearing to stop. Why did it end like this?
Later, Liu Yimin figured it out that there were many factions within the Japanese army. Any faction that came to power would come up with his own policies. It seemed that Kiichiro Hiranuma had successfully formed a cabinet.
Liu Yimin's judgment was true, and it was indeed Kiichiro Hiranu. When the Konoe Cabinet resigned, Emperor Hirohito was secretly happy, thinking that Konoe Fumima's reputation was too high and there was a potential for threatening the imperial power, so it would be better to resign.
After Konoha resigned, it became a big problem. Japan is a relatively developed country after all, and various political forces are mixed. Emperor Hirohito wanted to cut off his dictatorship, and not everything could be done as he pleased. As a result, he chose it.
After going, Emperor Hirohito had to accept Kome Fumima's recommendation and asked the Speaker of the Privy Council, Kiichiro Hiranu, to form a cabinet.
The new prime minister naturally needs to re-examine Japan's internal and external policies. However, Kiichiro Hiranuma did not have any tricks. The reason why he became famous in Japanese politics was mainly to advocate and adhere to the *** policy and to the likes of Koebe Fumima.
Urinated into a pot. Therefore, the first thing he did when he became prime minister was to review the war against China. After reviewing, the Kiichiro Hiranuma cabinet, like the Guard cabinet, believed that Chiang Kai-shek's government should be suppressed politically and surrendered in military terms.
Take a defensive force along the Yangtze River, take an offensive against the Eighth Route Army in North China, and restore public security in North China. However, during this period, the divisions in North China have been beaten by the Eighth Route Army, which is very passive, resulting in the loss of face internationally and the domestic economy being affected by the domestic economy.
Military drags down and inflation rate increases. Therefore, Kiichiro Hiranuma instructed the Land and Navy to carefully study the situation in North China and restore the decline as soon as possible.
Liu Yimin knew that the Japanese army and navy had their own strategies, that is, the Kwantung Army should advance northward, the Central China dispatched troops should launch the Nanchang offensive operation, the North China Front Army should launch a sweeping operation, and the South China 21st Army should repel China's Fourth War Zone
The counterattack of Hiranu Kiichiro asked the army and navy to review the war, which was equivalent to causing these warlords to quarrel, which was simply inconsistent with the strategy.
If this is true, the Japanese army can only act according to the established strategy. The Kwantung Army is still preparing for war against the Soviet Union. The Central China dispatched troops are preparing to launch the Nanchang Battle. The North China side has to obediently hand over the elite divisions. It seems that the Japanese army has returned to history.
On the track, Liu Yimin's series of measures have been taken effect, and the situation in North China will be temporarily calm for a while.
Not only did Liu Yimin get the information on the large-scale mobilization of the Japanese army, but also the Central Committee and the Eighth Route Army headquarters. The Chairman and the headquarters sent a telegram asking the instructor to seize the opportunity of the Japanese army's heavy army group leaving Shandong, and let go of the development of the Jiangsu-Anhui base area, consolidate Jiaodong, and Jiaodong.
Lai, Qinghe, Hebei-Shandong border, and western Shandong base areas expanded southwestern Shandong and Taixi base areas, and supported our army in central Hebei to restore the base areas.
The Supreme Command also obtained information about the 6th Division of the Japanese Army and the 16th Division heading south to participate in the Nanchang operation. At this time, Nanchang had a more prominent strategic position. Because after the end of the Wuhan Battle, China ranked 9th in the north and south of the Yangtze River.
The 5th War Zone heavy troops in Wuhan formed an encirclement situation. The Nanchang area not only covers the strategic transportation lines of the 3rd and 9th War Zones Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway, but also serves as a strategic base for China to gather heavy troops, posing a major threat to the Japanese army. There is also an airport in Nanchang,
Chinese planes often went to bomb the Japanese warships in the Yangtze River. In response to this situation, in order to expand the occupation of central China, change the strategic situation, and complete the political and military force of Chiang Kai-shek's government to surrender, it is necessary to capture Nanchang.
To this end, the Supreme Command issued an operational order to defend Nanchang, requiring the Ninth War Zone to launch an attack on the enemy on the Nanxun Line, divert the direction of the Japanese attack, and disrupt the strategic deployment of the Japanese army. It required all departments of our army in North China to actively launch offensive operations and restrain the Japanese army.
Forced him to attack Nanchang with all his strength.
This time, Chiang Kai-shek sent a telegram to the Eighth Route Army headquarters with a lot of praise, praising the Eighth Route Army units for not fearing strong enemies since the war started, and attacking bravely, and achieving impressive results. In particular, the tutor of the Eighteenth Army was in Shandong and Jiangsu and Anhui.
The region went south and north, restrained the main force of the Japanese invaders and covered other battlefield operations, with brilliant achievements and obvious to all the Chinese people. Chiang Kai-shek asked Zhu and Peng to lead their troops to take active actions and launch a large-scale offensive operation in North China, forcing the Japanese army to have to
The main force was drawn back to North China to support the battle in the direction of Nanchang.
No one expected that at the same time as the Battle of Nanchang began, the Hebei-Shandong border area was also in stormy waves.
There were indeed many contradictions within the Japanese army. General Lu Zuoba Shin-san advocated fighting the battle in Nanchang first, believing that the situation of Chiang Kai-shek's government would further deteriorate after capturing Nanchang. If the main force of the Central Team in the Nanchang area could be eliminated, Chiang Kai-shek would have to surrender.
Therefore, from beginning to end, he supported Lieutenant General Okamura Yasuki, commander of the 11th Army, actively deploying the Nanchang operation. General Shan Shanyuan, commander of the North China Front Army, also supported the capture of Nanchang, but the facts since he took office told him that North China
***, the Eighth Route Army's armed forces are the confidant of the Imperial Army of Japan, and they must be cleared first. Otherwise, the Eighth Route Army threatens the Higashijin area at any time, and the Japanese Army will not be able to concentrate on combat in other directions. Shanshanyuan's view was obtained by Soichi Deanuchi.
, Tada Jung and others supported. Kanto Army Commander Kenyoshi Ueda always kept preparing for war against Su, demanding that the First Division, Second Division and 23rd Division return to build. His views were obtained from the North of the Japanese Army
Support from the school.
After arguing, Prince Jae-in, the chief of staff of the Japanese army, came to the conclusion that nothing was right, the key was that the scale of the troops was too small to meet the combat needs.
Liu Yimin didn't know that as early as when he led his army south to Longhai Road, Prince Zairen of Xianyuan had already entered the palace to meet Emperor Hirohito and had another conspiracy.
Emperor Hirohito was a little discouraged by the performance of the Army and Navy. He lost a brigade today, a division tomorrow, and two to three divisions the day after tomorrow. How many divisions in the Great Japanese Empire are enough to consume like this! In the end, don’t talk about the North
If he attacked the Soviet Union or went south to attack Britain and the United States, he might have caused the Japanese Empire to exhaust its national strength and be defeated by just one China. Therefore, when he saw Prince Zairen of the Xianyuan Palace, he had no good expression at all.
Prince Zairen of Xianyuangu actually didn't want to come to see Emperor Hirohito, and he didn't win any battles, nor did he seize any national treasures. He came to see His Majesty the Emperor to just ask for scolding him. But he was the chief of staff of the Japanese army and the first in the war of aggression against China.
The two culprits must be responsible for his own position, right?
Looking at Prince Zairen, the old face and gray beard of Prince Xianyuan Miyagi, Emperor Hirohito felt disgusted, thinking that this old guy was also a guy who was just a savvy man. With the powerful national strength of the Great Japanese Empire and such a powerful army and navy
, there was no way to deal with the Chinese. After fighting for a year and a half, not only did Chiang Kai-shek not have avatar, but the army and navy lost so much military strength, which was simply unforgivable!
Thinking of this, Emperor Hirohito just wanted to kick Prince Jae-in from the palace to the ground. But after looking at Prince Jae-in's gray beard, then thinking about Queen Yoshiko's gentleness, and thinking about Dongjiu'er's palace
After King Hirohito's death, Emperor Hirohito felt a sense of sympathy for Prince Zairen of the Immortal Palace, and even thought that he must protect the old prince. He also worked loyally for himself and for state affairs.
Prince Sairen of the Immortal Palace had already felt that Emperor Hirohito wanted to have an attack on him and was ready to be scolded, but he did not expect Emperor Hirohito to think of his granddaughter and his nephew who died in battle. His mentality had happened so much.
Change. Therefore, when Emperor Hirohito asked him to sit and talk in a gentle manner, and asked the female official to serve him tea and refreshments, the old devil had no idea what day it was today. His Majesty the Emperor was so generous to him
, apologize quickly.
After the king and his ministers settled down, Emperor Hirohito asked the prince what urgent matters were there for his request to summon him.
Prince Zairen of Xianyuan reported the basic situation of the current war in China and asked His Majesty the Emperor to approve the expansion of the army.
In order to prove that the expansion of the army is necessary, Prince Zairen of Xianyuan said earnestly: "Your Majesty, the main reason why the Eighth Route Army was able to grow in North China is that our army lacked garrison and could not control the situation of the occupied area, and launched an Eighth Route Army.
Repeated sweeps have led to the *** Eighth Route Army flourishing in the occupied areas of our army. The current situation is that the Chinese team is getting stronger and stronger, and the main force is far from being eliminated. The main force of Chiang Kai-shek's government forces formed a siege against Wuhan, which can be done at any time.
Attack Wuhan. The Eighth Route Army was extremely vicious in North China and continued to attack the Imperial Army. The Imperial Army was in a passive state on both the north and south battlefields. The Soviet Union also deployed hundreds of thousands of troops in the Far East, with ulterior motives. If this continues, I am worried that the Chinese War would be unfavorable to the great
The Japanese Empire develops. Once the allies launch an offensive in Europe, the Great Japanese Empire will be unable to cooperate, and the future battle situation will be difficult to predict."
Prince Zairen of the Xianyuan Palace told the truth. Emperor Hirohito pondered for a moment and asked, "How does His Highness the Prince view Stalin's true intention?"
This is related to the overall strategic situation and cannot be said generally. If you say it wrong, you will be beaten to the slap in the future. However, Prince Zairen of Xianyuan is the second-in-command of the Japanese strategic decision-making. He is thinking about this kind of problem. He cannot help but ask.
Said: "Your Majesty, the army in July last year attacked Vladivostok and was counterattacked by the Soviet army. Later, it fought with the Soviet army in the Zhanggufeng area and tied. The Soviet army did not take advantage of the victory in these two battles, but
The Soviet Union is now the largest weapon support country of Chiang Kai-shek's government. Intelligence proves that Soviet pilots participated in the Chinese Air Force operations and had records of Soviet aircraft and Imperial Army combat in the capture of Nanjing and Wuhan. Stalin is indeed ulterior motives. If there were no Soviet Union
Chiang Kai-shek's Air Force no longer exists for the support of Chiang Kai-shek's government, and his troops have no ammunition. However, will the Soviet Union directly send troops to participate in the war at Chiang Kai-shek's request? What is their real motive? Now we can only judge and evaluate.
, There is no accurate conclusion. If the Imperial Army advances northward to fight against the Soviet Union, it cannot go south to seize resources from the British and American interests. If it goes south to fight against the United Kingdom and the United States, it has to worry about the possible attacks that the Soviet Union may launch. The Kwantung Army demands to fight against the Soviet Union, but I think it is still
You have to fight, and only then can you expose the true intentions of the Soviet Union."
Emperor Hirohito said "yes" and then asked if there was any progress in the assassination activities against Stalin.
After the Japanese army failed to capture Vladivostok, they were determined to take revenge. They happened to encounter Stalin's implementation of a great purge. General Liusicov, who was then the Minister of the Far East of the Soviet Ministry of Internal Affairs, was implicated and his wife was killed. Liusicov, who was determined to avenge his wife, fled.
When they arrived in the Northeast, they brought the latest information to the Japanese - the Soviet Union had gathered hundreds of thousands of heavy troops and more than 1,000 aircraft in the Far East. Faced with this threat, the head of the Japanese military decided to take the initiative first and eliminate Stalin.
Liusicov told the Japanese that Stalin would visit Goli every three years on his father's death day (January 25). After each grave visit, Stalin must live in Sochi, a coastal healing resort.
A few days, and from 2:00 to 5:00 every day, I would go to the Macesta Hot Spring 4 kilometers away from the villa to take a bath. Stalin has a dedicated bathroom, and two personal guards stand in front of the door, resting from the front hall and the back.
On the passage from the room to the dedicated bathroom, there are four armed guards standing. The hot spring water used by Stalin will flow into the nearby river through the sewer. At night, the water consumption of the hot spring is reduced, and the water in the sewer is reduced.
You can climb in along the sewer and go directly to the boiler room of Stalin's dedicated bathroom.
Based on this, the Japanese military headquarters formulated an assassination action plan code-named "Bear Hunting Plan", organized a seven-person assassination team, conducted special training, and prepared to sneak into the Soviet tourist resort Sochi, and on the night before the assassination, the
The sewer enters the boiler room of Stalin's dedicated bathroom and hides it. Then, choose the time to clean up the six guards in front of the bathroom and finally eliminate Stalin.
But for some reason, the Liusicov assassination team was found by the Soviet patrol team from Turkey and killed three people and four fled back to Turkey in a panic.
The Japanese military secret service agency reviewed the reasons for the failure and found that a Soviet intelligence officer named "Leo" was sneaked into the assassination team, but "Leo" did not tell until his death how he knew about the Japanese army's actions and how he sneaked into the assassination.
Squad's.
After Prince Zairen of the Immortal Palace reported the situation, Emperor Hirohito picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, took a sip, and said slowly: "Call Sakamoto Ichijun to Germany. The Germans have been dealing with the Soviet Union for a long time, so there should be a way. Germany has a way.
Can you act together on a joint move?”
Sakamoto No. 1 Middle School is the head of the military secret service agency, and is specifically responsible for the formulation and implementation of the bear hunting plan.
After Emperor Hirohito's statement, Prince Zairen's eyes lit up in the sky, and he immediately said that His Majesty was wise, which made me suddenly enlightened.
Next, Emperor Hirohito and Prince Zairen of Shin-gumiya began to expand the army. Prince Zairen of Shin-gumiya was: First, reorganize the 10th Division, the 14th Division, and the 35th Division.
The regiment, although these three divisions were broken, the military flags did not fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army. In particular, the 10th Division, the division headquarters and some directly affiliated troops were left in De County at that time and were protected. Now they have been withdrawn from the local area and standby.
Rebuilding these three divisions does not increase the number, and there is a budget for military expenditure, so it can cost less. As for how to rebuild, Prince Zairen of Xianyuangong was also confident. He proposed that the 10th Division and the 14th Division were
The permanent division shall undertake strategic mobile combat missions. The 35th Division shall belong to the North China Front Army and shall undertake combat missions with the Eighth Route Army. These three units must ensure combat effectiveness and should draw six garrisons from the Manchurian border garrison and then from the country.
Artillery, cavalry, engineers, and baggage troops were drawn from each fortress garrison and organized into the above three divisions to ensure that the combat effectiveness of these three divisions does not decrease. Then they were recruited from the original 10th Division and 14th Division reserve personnel.
The troops were filled with garrisons from the continent, preparing for battle and training.
Without waiting for Prince Zairen to speak again, Emperor Hirohito interrupted him: "Your Highness, the 10th Division can mainly recruit the division headquarters of the division, and organize the division reserve personnel. The 14th Division
Since the reserve personnel have been organized into the 11th Fourth Division, the division can be composed of left-behind divisions and reserve personnel of the Fifth Division. The 35th Division is composed of left-behind divisions and reserve personnel of the former Second Division.
The Manchurian border garrison cannot move, and to prepare for war against the Soviet Union, the Kwantung Army can only strengthen, not weaken!"
Emperor Hirohito's tone of speaking was uncontroversial, and he did have the courage to kill and decisive.
Prince Zairen of Xianyuan was overjoyed when he heard this. His purpose was to expand the army, and it didn't matter how he formed the army. His Majesty the Emperor said this, which means that he supported his expansion of the army, so this matter would be easier to handle. Besides, the reserve personnel of the 10th Division and the
The Fifth Division and the Second Division are both veterans and veterans with fierce style. Their combat effectiveness is only stronger than the Manchurian garrison. By forming troops, the combat effectiveness of these three divisions can be
Just imagine it.
Prince Zairen, who was full of heart, shook his gray beard and shook. Then he proposed a second plan to expand the army, which was to form a new independent mixed brigade and expand the Japanese independent mixed brigade in China to 23.
Responsible for the garrison task of occupying the area.
Emperor Hirohito proposed that the combat effectiveness of the newly formed troops was too poor and was not an opponent of the Eighth Route Army. The more they were organized, the worse it was, which was equivalent to giving weapons and equipment to the Eighth Route Army.
When Prince Zairen of Xianyuan heard this, he quickly defended himself as saying that the new troops had poor combat effectiveness, but any troops had a practical training process. Like the 38th Division, the Longhai Road battle was very good, and he followed the division.
The regiment commander was calm and calm. He took advantage of the battle to defeat the Eighth Route Army's conspiracy to siege and annihilate the division. In the report, Lieutenant General Shisaku of the Gangbu gave a high level of performance on the battlefield of the 38th Division.
Evaluation. It is the 32nd Division, the 36th Division, the 41st Division and the 40th Division on Jinpu Road, and the 40th Division have achieved good results on the battlefield recently, which is better than the first time.
There is a world of difference in the battlefield and has been trained into elite troops. I believe that the newly-organized independent mixed brigade will perform well in the future. Because all soldiers have a heart that is loyal to the emperor and sacrifice their lives for the Greater East Asian holy war.
determination.
Emperor Hirohito thought about it and found that the 38th Division was indeed good. The Eighth Route Army that broke through Longhai Road must be part of Liu Yimin's democratic force, otherwise it would not have been possible to break through the imperial army's position so quickly. If it were placed in the 30th
When the Eighth Division first went to the battlefield, the unit might have fled, providing an opportunity for the Eighth Route Army to take advantage of. The 41st Division performed well, and the main force was basically not seriously damaged. The 36th Division
The performance was better, and the Li Wen Li team in Shandong was solved in one battle, which showed that the division was fierce in offensive, tenacious in style, and dared to fight and fight.
Emperor Hirohito nodded: "His Prince's words are reasonable. In my name, I will reward the 38th Division, the 41st Division, and the 36th Division, and give priority to supplementing. The matter of the Independent Mixed Brigade is decided like this.
After that, they cooperated with the field division to implement the mobilization operations in the occupied areas. They told the captains of each unit to actively and take the initiative to fight and repeatedly clear and mobilize the base areas of the Eighth Route Army."
Speaking of this, Emperor Hirohito's voice increased eighth degrees and became sharp: "The military should conduct a serious review of the North China war and come up with practical solutions. The base of the Eighth Route Army of China should be turned into a scorched earth and freeze them to death.
Starve to death, die of illness!”
Prince Zairen of Xianyuangong hurriedly stood up and kept standing up.
