Luo Ronghuan's guess was correct, Liu Yimin was worried, and Lieutenant General Shun Tada, the commander of the Japanese North China Front, was also worried.
Starting from October 27, when the Japanese troops landed in Yancheng, northern Jiangsu, this heavy-duty raid was planned directly by the Japanese base camp and Tada Shun was responsible for the specific command. It has been going on for 22 days. The result is that the Japanese troops have basically occupied the transportation of the entire province of Shandong.
The main road has not only opened up Jinpu Road, but also opened up the roads between most of the county towns, which is equivalent to basically completing the full occupation of Shandong.
If this were a battle against the Kuomintang regular army, the battle would have been declared victorious. However, no one, whether it was Shun Tada, Hisao Nishio, or the invading devils in the Japanese base camp, dared to declare the battle victorious, because they knew the target of the battle.
It is not the Central Army of the Nationalist Government,
It was the Eighth Route Army. After fighting for 22 days, the Eighth Route Army never defended a county town from the beginning to the end. They turned the county town into an empty and dead city before the Japanese army attacked the city, and then quickly retreated. Not only did the Japanese army fail to eliminate the main force of the Eighth Route Army, on the contrary, they also lost it.
He defeated the main force of the 38th Division and lost so many fighter planes.
〖Japan〗 From the moment the Japanese army launched its attack, the domestic news media began to report endlessly on the news of North China's public security operations. Every day in the newspapers and on the radio, there was news of the Japanese army's victory in conquering the city. It had already been
The ordinary Japanese people who were a little war-weary after a series of tragic defeats were once again inspired to go to hot springs and pubs.
While talking about the war in North China, they talked about how brave and invincible His Excellency Jun Tada was, and how to judge Liu Yimin if he was caught. One illustrated magazine even published a special issue, using the form of a comic strip to imagine what to do with Liu Yimin if he was caught. On the screen,
First, there is the scene of Liu Yimin's Japanese troops landing on the beach under the cover of aircraft, and then there is the scene of groups of Japanese troops attacking and advancing, and then the scene continues.
Based on the reports sent back by front-line photographers, it depicts scenes of Japanese troops occupying counties in Shandong, northern Jiangsu, and southern Hebei. The last scene is the scene of Liu Yimin being captured and escorted to Tokyo for disposal. 1 small Japanese version actually exists
Fantasy talent, the picture shows Liu Yimin wearing a tattered military uniform, crouching in front of a pile of firewood, a Japanese cavalry brandishing a sword to rein in his horse, the horse's
The front hooves soared into the air, seeming to trample Liu Yimin into meat. Then came the scene of Liu Yimin, his wife, and son being escorted to Tokyo for trial. The solemn court, the majestic judge, Liu Yimin knelt in the court, trembling all over,
There was runny nose. Then there were Liu Yimin and his wife, and their son was kneeling in front of the palace gate, licking the feet of passing officials.
〖Japan〗The emotions of the people in Japan have been aroused again. Slogans supporting the Greater East Asia Jihad are plastered everywhere on the streets of Tokyo. 〖Japanese〗The people of Japan are looking forward to it, expecting their army warriors to bring them good news.
The food, cotton, salt, coal and ore brought back to North China. Unfortunately, the gunshots in the Battle of Southwest Shandong shattered the Japanese dream.
〖Japanese〗 The Japanese media no longer dared to praise Lord Tada Shun for his extraordinary bravery. After a few days of silence, someone wrote an article in the newspaper and began to question whether Tada Shun had the ability to lead the North China Front Army. What's more, a
Guy actually
However, he imitated the disgusting practice of General Judaichi in the temple who only wanted to sleep with low-class prostitutes. He drew a cartoon called "The Pain of the Sexually Incompetent" and printed it and posted it all over the streets of Tokyo. Passers-by took a look and saw that it was a group of cartoons.
serial
Picture, the man in the picture knocked on the door and entered a teahouse in Tokyo. He was teasing the landlady who was an old MILF. The landlady half pushed her away and pushed her until it got on the bed. As a result, the man's penis became weak at the critical moment and he was kicked by the landlady.
He kicked off the bed and knelt in front of it, crying bitterly. Attentive passers-by took a look and saw that the man had a bald head and a face as sharp as a knife. Isn't he the famous Lieutenant General Tada Shun, commander of the Japanese Army's North China Front?
?
It became very lively, and the story was passed down to ten, and in the end even Mrs. Tada Shun knew about it. She took her children to tear up the comics on the streets, while tearing up the comics, calling the people who drew them despicable and shameless, and insulting the Japanese Army.
They were torn cleanly on the first day, but unexpectedly the streets were covered with cartoons the next morning. Mrs. Tada Shun burst into tears, and then went to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to report the case, asking to be caught for insulting the Japanese Army North China Front.
Commander, the criminals will be brought to justice.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department also attached great importance to it and immediately filed a case. Detectives went out to search and arrest the suspect. The matter should have ended here, but Mrs. Tada Shun was holding a lump of breath in her chest. She was not eating well and could not sleep.
Sweet, I feel that my husband is fighting the ferocious Liu Yimin on the front line, while some unscrupulous guys in the country are stabbing people in the back, and the Army Department and the General Staff Headquarters are pretending to be deaf and dumb without asking. Which one is intolerable?
Mrs. Tada Shun went to Riku Prime Minister Shunroku and Chief of General Staff Prince Kanin Miyazaihito, hoping that they would put pressure on the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to catch the criminals as soon as possible and throw them into Tokyo Bay to feed the fish. As a result, Hoshunroku and Kanin Miyalou
Prince Ren was not talking, they were having a meeting. The Ministry of War who came to receive them,
The two section chiefs of the General Staff Headquarters repeatedly assured Mrs. Tada Shun that the dignity and honor of Japan's Army must not be tarnished and that the criminals would be exterminated and severely punished.
Mrs. Tada Jun finally felt a warmth in her heart. Unexpectedly, before leaving, the section chief of the Army Ministry seemed to be absent-minded and said: "No wonder, the war in North China is really worrying!"
This understatement made Mrs. Tada Shun very sad. After returning home, she sent a telegram to Tada Shun, telling her husband everything about the comics appearing on the streets of Tokyo.
After receiving the telegram from his wife, Tada Junqi's hands and feet were cold. He did not expect that the humiliation suffered by Juichi Terauchi would fall on him, and he became furious.
That's not all the pressure on Tada Shun. The Commander of the Chinese Expeditionary Forces, Nishio Hiszo, kept urging him to end the campaign as soon as possible because the dispatched troops were eager to launch the Guinan Campaign and completely cut off the National Government's international supply lines so as to intimidate Chiang Kai-shek.
Surrender as soon as possible. Moreover, there are insufficient troops in East and Central China. The Sixth Division and the Fifteenth Division were independently combined into the Eleventh and Twelfth Brigades and they urgently need to be returned to their organic form.
The base camp also received constant calls and several telegrams a day to inquire about the progress of the battle.
These troubles are nothing. Tada Shun has a strong character and is not afraid of any pressure. After the Eighth Route Army eliminated the main force of the 38th Division, Tada Shun sent a report to Emperor Hirohito requesting permission to perform a caesarean section to apologize. The result was just as Tada Shun had guessed, the emperor
His Majesty does not approve
, asking him to serve his crimes, eliminate the main force of the Eighth Route Army as soon as possible, pacify Shandong, and restore public order in North China. Now, Shandong has basically fallen into the hands of Tada Jun, but the main force of the Eighth Route Army has disappeared. Tada Jun has been thinking, Liu Yimin escaped
Where?
Before Tada Shun could think of an answer, the western Liaoning warning came. Lieutenant General Yoshijiro Umezu, the commander of the Kwantung Army, said angrily in the telegram that the main force of Liu Yi's "people" had arrived in Liaoning, and Changbai
Yang Jingyu's anti-alliance forces in the mountainous area responded to each other and made a big fuss in Liaoning. The main force of the Kwantung Army must be returned to Liaoning immediately to eliminate the main force of Liu Yimin who jumped into Liaoning. Otherwise, the safety of Shenyang cannot be guaranteed.
The base camp also sent an urgent telegram, ordering Tada Shun to quickly return the Kwantung Army divisions to reorganize and destroy the Eighth Route Army that broke into Liaoning.
Manchuria is the foundation of the Japanese Empire's interests in China, and Shenyang is the base camp of the Kwantung Army. Once Shenyang is lost, the joke will be a big joke.
Tada Shun knew in his heart that it was not Liu Yimin's troops that entered the Northeast, but probably the Kuomintang headquarters operating in the Jireliao area. He believed that Umezu Yoshijiro also knew in his heart that it was not Liu Yimin's troops. The problem is that all the elite Kwantung Army troops are fighting in the pass. Those in the northeast are all newly formed divisions and garrisons. If the Eighth Route Army really takes Shenyang, the responsibility will be too great.
Tada Shun could think of Umezu Yoshijiro's panic, and he also knew that if he were the commander of the Kwantung Army, he would also panic at this time. However, the Shandong war is not over. Liu Yimin's main force has disappeared since the end of the Battle of Southwest Shandong and can be seen at any time. It can suddenly appear from anywhere and launch a thunderous strike.
Be it the Kwantung Army, the Sixth Division, or the Fifteenth Division, Tada Shun did not dare to let them all go.
Tada Shun sent a report to the base camp requesting instructions to allow the Kwantung Army to leave two to three divisions at any cost to assist the North China Front in its operations.
In the telegram, Jun Tada analyzed the current progress of the security operations in North China. He said that most of Shandong has been occupied, which is equivalent to destroying the base area on which the Eighth Route Army relies for survival. In two months, it can be repaired. Jinpu Road and various highway trunk lines, use railways and highways to divide Shandong into squares, restrict the activities of the Eighth Route Army that has gone underground, carry out zone-based clearing, and completely eliminate the forces of the Communist Party and the Eighth Route Army in Shandong.
The base camp agreed to Tada Shun's request, approved the temporary transfer of the 11th Division, 12th Division, 28th Division, and 29th Division to the command of the North China Front, and ordered the 1st Division, 2nd Division, The Fourth Division, the Seventh Division, the 23rd Division, and the 24th Division quickly returned to Manchuria to eliminate the Eighth Route Army that broke into Liaoning and restore law and order in Liaoning. At the same time, the base camp ordered Tada Shun to concentrate their forces and quickly search and suppress Liu 1. The main force of the people.
After receiving the telegram from the base camp, Shun Tada immediately ordered the First Division, Second Division, Fourth Division, Seventh Division, Twenty-third Division, and Twenty-fourth Division in southwest Shandong to complete their combat missions. , with the Second Division and the 23rd Division as the forerunners, they quickly concentrated on Lianyungang, shipped to Dalian, and returned to Liaoning.
The main force of the Kwantung Army has left, and the war must continue. Tada Shun knows that the Sixth Division, the Fifteenth Division, the Taiwan Mixed Brigade, and the Second Guards Division cannot stay in North China for a long time. He has done it before The deputy chief of staff and the president of the Army University must consider the overall situation and cannot always speak from the standpoint of the North China Front. Both Central and South China need troops, but not only North China needs troops. Therefore, these troops must be seized. At the opportunity in North China, find the main force of Liu Yi's "People" and eliminate the main force of Liu Yi's "People".
In Tada Shun's office, Yoshizumi Ryosuke and Hirata were all standing in front of the battle map on the wall, their eyes wide open, as if they wanted to find out on the map where the main force of the Eighth Route Army was hiding, so that they could attack with their troops. Go up and annihilate them in one fell swoop.
To be honest, Yoshizumi Ryosuke and Hirata Shokan are far behind Juichi Terauchi's Chief of Staff Naosaburo Okabe, and also far behind Sugigimoto's Chief of Staff Yamashita Hobumi and Deputy Chief of Staff Akira Muto. Naosaburo Okabe and Tomofumi Yamashita were both famous Japanese generals who served as generals in history. Akira Muto was also an unequivocal strategist in the Japanese army. He was one of the seven Class-A war criminals hanged at the Tokyo Trial in history. Yoshizumi Ryosuke and Hirata Shokan is far behind them.
Yoshizumi Ryosuke and Hirata Masaru were puzzled. Liu Yimin's main force was clearly in southwest Shandong, so why did it suddenly disappear? Did they all burrow into tunnels like mice? Could they have fled into the Taihang Mountains?
Yoshizumi Ryosuke and Hirata Shogun were ordered by Shun Tada to go to southwestern Shandong to supervise the deployment of troops to guard against Liu Yimin's sneak attack. The task of deployment was completed, but the fish in the net were let go. These two guys
I was so anxious that I wished I could catch Liu Yimin doing the job right now.
Yoshizumi Ryosuke's eyes were sore when looking at the map. He couldn't help but turn around and said to Shun Tada: "Your Excellency, Commander, Liu Yimin is very cunning. I judge that there are two possibilities. One possibility is that all Liu Yimin's troops have tunneled.
Well, another possibility is that he fled into the Taihang Mountains."
Tada Shun said "Oh" and stared at the map without looking back.
Shogun Hirata disagreed with Yoshizumi Ryosuke and said: "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, it is not possible to drill a tunnel. That is Liu Yimin's main force, including tanks, armored vehicles, cars, and artillery. These vehicles cannot be dislodged."
The possibility of escaping into the Taihang Mountains is not high. These vehicles have lost their effectiveness after entering the Taihang Mountains. Liu Yimin would not do that. I think there are three possibilities. One is that Liu Yimin's main force passed
The Yellow River went to northern Henan in an attempt to eliminate the 14th Division in northern Henan, and then crossed the Yellow River south to attack Zhengzhou and the Kaifeng defenders. The second possibility is that Liu Yimin might take advantage of the chaos to jump back to the east of the canal. This point, from
The evidence can be obtained from the fierce battles in the mountains of southern Shandong. Liu Yimin must have been worried that the imperial army would take away his home and went back to rescue him. The third possibility is that Liu Yimin was hiding between southwestern Shandong, Yinan, and western Shandong, preparing to wait for opportunities.
Ambush again,
Attack the lone prominent Imperial Army unit."
Yoshizumi Ryosuke said impatiently: "How could Liu Yimin jump back to the east of the canal? With such a large-scale force, how could he escape? It is worth noting that the direction of northern Henan is worth mentioning. After the reconstruction of the 14th Division
The combat effectiveness and equipment are not as good as before, which is worrying."
Tada Shun's views were different from those of Yoshizumi Ryosuke and Hirata Masabu. His eyes had been fixed on the southern Hebei region. You must know that because he was afraid of Liu Yimin's attack on the troops in western Shandong and southern Hebei, at that time, the 37th Division, the
The main forces of the 40th Division and the 41st Division urgently contracted. The troops of the three divisions and the four North China Security Army Groups that remained in the southern Hebei region also retreated into key counties. It would be very convenient for Liu Yimin to hide and recuperate in southern Hebei.

Jinan, Jinan, Jun Tada couldn't help but chant these two Chinese characters.
