Chapter 646: The Test of the Empire

Many of the high-ranking Japanese generals were silent, they could not understand Terauchi Shouichi's words.

In their opinion, the best way to kill people is to chop off the opponent's head with a knife, victory is victory or defeat, where are there so many tricks.

"I see!"

Just when everyone was silent, Nishio Shouzo suddenly spoke: "Isn't the general meaning that when the people of China think they will win, they will defeat them head-on in one go, which can not only completely defeat their illusion of stubborn resistance, but also take the opportunity to revive the confidence of our imperial soldiers in victory?" ”

"Hahaha, not bad!"

Terauchi Shouichi glanced at Nishio Shouzo approvingly, and then said: "I have the same opinion as you, the 14th Division is advancing alone, although the generals of the Shina Army are all some wine bags and rice bags, but Xue Yue and this Cheng Qian have some ability, and it is impossible for them not to see this huge fighter, so I am sure that the other party must have set a trap and wait for Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara to jump in......"

"God, the 14th Division is only 20,000 people, and there may still be a chance to fight and go, but if it is surrounded by the Zhina army, it will be a big trouble!"

"General, let's hurry up and inform Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara that there is fraud, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable......"

"Taking advantage of the fact that the encirclement of the Chinese Army has not yet been closed, we should still have a chance to ...... while letting Lieutenant General Tu Feiyuan retreat and let the 10th Brigade move closer to the 14th Division."

As soon as they heard this, many generals immediately became calm, after all, the 14th Division is the first division of the empire, the elite of the elite, if the loss is too great, it will be an irreparable loss for the empire.

You must know that it takes several years and countless resources to train a good soldier, let alone a division of 20,000 soldiers.

"Shut up and listen to what Your Excellency General has to say!"

Nishio Shouzo snorted dissatisfiedly and shouted, "If things are as simple as you think, can Your Excellency the General waste so many tongues?" ”

When all the voices were quiet, Terauchi Shouichi said in a cold voice: "Regarding the conspiracy of the Shina army, everyone must not reveal the slightest bit to Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara, I want to let him enter the encirclement, and I want to make the Shina people think that they have won the battle!" ”

Everyone was silent, looking at Terauchi Shouichi, and said in his heart that defeating the Shina people when they thought they were victorious would indeed be able to hit the morale of the other party to the greatest extent and boost the morale of their own army.

But the problem is that the military command intelligence organization of the people of China is not a fool, and it is impossible for our army to completely conceal the eyes and ears of the other side by massively increasing its troops in the direction of the encirclement.

"Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara is the best of the new generation of generals, and he is a rising star in the empire!"

Terauchi Shoudai said loudly: "This time, I don't want any troops to come over to support, I believe that Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara has enough ability to break out of the encirclement with his own strength and give those Chinese troops a head-on blow!" ”

Speaking of this, Terauchi Shou paused, glanced at everyone with a cruel smile, and then said: "Think about it, under the heavy encirclement of the 120,000 army, the 20,000 army not only successfully broke out of the encirclement, but also dealt a heavy blow to the enemy, killing the enemy's corpses all over the field - can this defeat the dream of victory in one fell swoop?" In the future, when the Chinese army faces our army, even if they are several times more powerful than our army, they will remember this battle, and when the battle has not even begun, they will already be terrified......"

"Gao, the general's plan to kill the enemy is really high!"

"If this plan can really be achieved, no matter how much advantage the Chinese army occupies on the battlefield in the future, they will feel that they will lose—a force that always feels that it will lose, it will be difficult to win!"

After listening to Terauchi Shouichi's analysis, everyone waved their fists excitedly, as if they had seen more than 20,000 people of the 14th Division under the command of Kenji Dohihara killing hundreds of thousands of troops into a river of blood, crushing the army, and then chasing and killing for thousands of miles, and the scene of corpses everywhere......

Only Nishio Shouzo's face was cloudy, and he stopped talking.

"Lieutenant General Nishio, do you have questions?" Shouichi Terauchi frowned.

"The general's plan to kill the enemy is wonderful!"

Nishio Shouzo first praised it, and then said: "But what if, I mean, what if the 14th Division can't be encircled?" ”

"No case, they must fight their way out of the encirclement, this is the test of the empire for them!"

Terauchi Shouichi snorted, and was silent for a moment before saying: "Notify all the fighters that can be mobilized, be ready at any time, and give full air support when the 14th Division begins to break through - as the elite of my imperial army, if they can't break out of the encirclement, then even if they don't die, there is no point!" ”

"Hey!"

Many officers bowed in unison, and then retreated, while feeling excited about the crazy plan of 20,000 men to break more than 100,000 people, and on the other hand, they were worried about the 14th Division of Kenji Dohihara, in case the other side could not fight their way out of the encirclement, the loss of an entire elite division would definitely be a huge blow to the Empire.

"General!"

Nishio Shouzo stayed, took a deep breath and said, "I am against this plan!" ”

"You can't trust me, or can't you trust Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara or those 20,000 imperial soldiers?" Terauchi Kobuki.

"Of course not!"

Nishio Shouzao said in a sullen voice: "It's just that the difference in strength is too great, this plan is too risky!" ”

"Declaring an all-out war on China is a huge adventure – I think you should have known the voices of those opponents in the country who said we were like a snake trying to swallow an elephant!"

Terauchi Shouichi snorted coldly: "But look at the present, do those opposing voices still exist? Any crazy plan, madness is only the beginning, the most important thing is the result - now the results we have obtained have completely silenced the opposition in the country at the beginning, and in a few days, the results of the 14th Division with 20,000 lone troops defeating more than 100,000 people in that army will come back, I think you will shut up too! ”

"I hope so!"

Nishio Shou said, and then added: "Major General Yoshikawa Sadazo has arrived in Shanghai on the order of the emperor, and he will come over in a few days, ready to preside over the plan of the special high-tech assassination department - he is the emperor's favorite nephew, and the emperor has an order, so I must protect his safety, and we must not let him die in this foreign land like King Hiko and others......"

"Got it, you step down!"

Terauchi Shou Ichi, he has some impression of Yoshikawa Sadasa, it is an ambitious young man, he has some expectations, this guy may bring a little surprise to himself.
