After graduating from the senior staff class of the Army University, he was named by Okamura Ninji to stay in the second department of the local General Staff Department to work, and a year later, Okamura was transferred to the commander of the Second Division, and he took over as the deputy chief of the Soviet Russia Section of the Intelligence Department, but after the Lugou Bridge Incident, he was transferred to the Kwantung Army Headquarters as an operational staff officer. /。 qВ5, cOm/ With the collapse of the situation in North China, the Japanese base camp was extremely dissatisfied with the North China Front, and Sugiyama Moto, as the commander of the North China Front, began to adjust the personnel of the North China Front Command, and it was under this circumstance that he was transferred to Beiping as the deputy chief of the Operations Section of the North China Front Headquarters.

After Ligao sent a secret message in the newspaper after he arrived in Beiping, half a month passed, and no one came to contact him, which made him extremely anxious, but he could not take action, he knew the importance of his current position, all combat operations of the North China Front had to pass through his hands, as long as the line was connected, the Japanese army's actions would be transparent to the Chinese side, but now he could not take the line.

In the last two days of the meeting, the commander of the Fifth Mixed Brigade, Yasuken Nakajima, was the guy he met in the bathroom of the officer's club and put forward a battle plan, which ran counter to Sugiyama Moto's plan, but Yasuken Nakajima felt the horror of this plan, if it was carried out according to the plan, not to mention the 152 theater of operations, the anti-Japanese forces behind the enemy line would suffer heavy losses, and the rear of the Japanese army in North China would be stable for a long time, and the Japanese army could go all out to deal with the squadron on the frontal battlefield.

What relieved Tarigaka support was that Sugiyama was obviously not interested in this plan, but Nishio Shouzo was very interested, and in the personnel adjustment due to the defeat, Nishio Shouzo was less affected by the fact that he should bear the main responsibility as the commander-in-chief of the Jinpu Road operation, but Terauchi Shouichi moved his headquarters to Dexian and directly intervened in the front-line command, which was tantamount to depriving him of his command in disguise, and he could not be held accountable after the war, so he still served as the commander of the Second Army, unified command of the Shandong troops, and there was news that said, He is likely to become the Director of Education for one of the Army's three most important core heads.

Nishio Shouzo suggested that Sugiyama Motomo organize a tactical deduction designed according to Nakajima's Yasuken plan, Sugiyama Mototo refused without hesitation, he believed that the key to ending the Chinese incident was to eliminate the young Zhuang faction in the Central Army of China, especially the elite troops of the Central Army concentrated in Xuzhou, as for the Communist Party troops in North China were just a group of rats, they could take advantage of the imperial army when they were napping, and once the imperial army freed up, they could be easily eliminated.

"Look at today's Huatu," Nishio Shouzo was a little angry, but he didn't expect this old classmate to be so stubborn: "How big is the territory occupied by the Communist Party army, the main communication arteries are under their threat, they can cut off the Pingsui Line and the Zhengtai Line at any time, and every time at a critical moment in the frontal battlefield, their logistics line is always attacked by them, causing us great losses, if we don't hit them, the attack on the government army in China is likely to be abandoned halfway." ”

"Nishio-kun, you worry too much, is it the battle of the state that scared your guts Yuan sneered and mocked: "As soon as the domestic troops arrive, I will immediately assign a division of the First Army to Yuejun to take up the post of repelling the attack of the Zhina Army and stabilize the situation in Shanxi. ”

Nishio Shouzao snorted coldly, pointed to the map and said, "By the way, it was eliminated?" Commander, the first-class highway of the Hebei **C Party forces occupies forty counties, can you easily eliminate them? After the start of the battle on Jinpu Road, the Communist Party of China made a comeback, expanding to forty counties, from Pingjin to Shijiazhuang in Cangzhou, from Jinpu Road to Pinghan Road, all under their control, this is a steel knife pierced by the Communist Party in North China, always on the chest and abdomen of the imperial army, with this knife, the imperial army must not go all out to the south. ”

Sugiyama Yuan looked at the map, and a fear gradually surged in his heart, indeed, after the Communist Party occupied this area, no matter where it attacked, it was to hit the blood vessels of the southbound troops, in order to prevent them, the North China Front must mobilize a large number of troops to be stationed near the communication line, which is bound to weaken the strength of the southern front attack.

"Okay, I'll agree to a tactical exercise." Sugiyama finally relented, and twenty divisions were transferred from Japan, and the transportation of more than 300,000 people and their equipment would take two months with Japanese seaborne forces.

In fact, Sugiyama Mototoshi and Ototoshi are generals at this level. It is already clear that the events in China will drag on for a long time. This is something that Japan once tried to avoid. But things have come to this point. They have no choice but to fight. Sugiyama was hoping to end the war in his own hands.

After a week of preparation. Tactical exercises were held in the Northern Command. As the Deputy Chief of the Operations Section, Ligao Support serves as the main assistant. Chief of the Operations Section, Jiang To, was in charge of commanding the Japanese troops in the attacking area

Kang Jian was in charge of commanding the imaginary enemy Eighth Route Army.

Although there is a lack of detailed information on the Eighth Route Army in Jizhong. However, based on the ground information obtained on the battlefield in the past. The General Staff can estimate that ** is not far from ten. According to the settings. The main force of the Eighth Route Army in Jizhong was about 30,000. In addition, about 50,000 county brigades, district squads, such guerrillas. The best heavily armed weapons are anti-aircraft guns and mortars. There may also be ninety-two infantry guns. There aren't many of them, though.

The beginning of the campaign. Jiang Teng commanded four divisions with two chariot wings from Shijiazhuang. Baoding, Cangzhou. Depart from Pingjin. Like a thunderbolt, it smashed into the Jizhong Plain. Yasuken Nakajima commanded the troops to resist one after another. Eventually, break out to the west. Enter the Taihang Mountains. The campaign lasted two weeks.

Subsequently, Jiang Teng moved to southern Hebei. From Xingtai and Dezhou to attack southern Hebei. After three weeks of fighting. The Eighth Route Army in southern Hebei was defeated. The remnants retreated to the west and entered the Taihang Mountains. After solving these two Eighth Route Army. Jiang Teng once again mobilized three divisions and regiments to the north, from Baoding and Shijiazhuang, to Fuping, the central area of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area, to launch an attack.

As the deduction progressed, the atmosphere in the war room became more and more relaxed, judging from the map, the attack of the imperial army, the Eighth Route Army had no way to resist at all, and most of the Eighth Route Army in the base area of central Hebei was wiped out in Jiangbei, and the main force of the Eighth Route Army in southern Hebei would also be eliminated.

Nakajima Kangjian's doubts became deeper and deeper, he felt that something was wrong, this was too easy, if it was so easy, the Eighth Route Army in Central Hebei would have been wiped out several times, and the Eighth Route Army in Southern Hebei would not be tenable at all. No, definitely not there. Nakajima thought about what went wrong while deducing.

"Your Excellency," Nakajima said when he saw one of Nakasa Sugiyama Motomo and Nishio Shouzo, "I think that there is a major flaw in this deduction, we have not fought much with the Eighth Route Army, we are not familiar with their tactics, and we have some wishful thinking about their operations. ”

Nakajima's eyes lit up when he heard this, he understood that something was wrong, the method of war, right is the method of war, this Nakasa was too right, Nakajima couldn't help but have a good impression of this Nakasa.

"Ligao Zuo, isn't that a little bit of tactics? Is there any other way to fight war? Sugiyama Moto's expression was a little disdainful.

"I haven't fought with the ** troops, and the General Staff lacks their information, but," Ligao said, pointing to the deduction process chart just now: "Our army is attacking in four directions, and the enemy is resisting in four directions, and it is still a frontal resistance, which is inconsistent with military common sense, and it is completely a weak attack on the strong, and their generals are so stupid?" ”

"So how do you think he's going to fight? Our four-way army is divided into two attacks, and if they do not resist, we will occupy the whole of Jizhong. Eto retorted unconvinced.

"Major General Nakajima, Ristaka thinks your fight is stupid, what do you think?" Sugiyama suddenly pulled Yasuken Nakajima into the debate.

Nakajima was silent for a moment, raised his head and admitted calmly: "Yes, the humble position has adopted a stupid tactic. Then he ignored everyone's surprised eyes and continued: "Militarily speaking, when encountering a strong enemy, it is the basic common sense of a military general to avoid a decisive battle, and it is stupid to violate this common sense in a lowly battle. ”

Tategao's eyes were very complicated, he felt a great threat for the first time, this Nakajima would be Mr.'s most dangerous opponent, although he was still only a major general's brigade commander, he had to be eliminated as soon as possible, and the idea of getting in touch with Mr. as soon as possible was even stronger.

"So how will the Eighth Route Army fight? What do you think? Nishio Shouzo asked the staff officers around him without waiting for Sugiyama to speak.

After a moment of silence, a calm voice came from the staff group: "No fight." ”

Nishio Shouzo followed the prestige, a young lieutenant stood in the junior staff group, looking up at him, Nishio Shouzo nodded slightly in encouragement.

"I studied the attacks on Jizhong and Taihang Mountain in the past year," the staff officer continued: "These two attacks were not large, and they did not last long, and the records of the staff department were few, but some things can still be seen." The Eighth Route rarely fought head-on with the Imperial Army, unless it was an important target, they always avoided the front of our army, concentrated the main force on the flank of our army, and attacked the logistics supply line, otherwise they would rather let our army occupy the target, as long as the army was kept. ”

"Cunning operation," Nishio Shouzo snorted coldly, but he was very irritated in his heart, if this is the case, the battle in Jizhong will be very difficult, or it will last for a long time, which is a very bad result for the Jinpu Road operation.

"The Jinpu Road operation is the focus of the next operation, and this is the established strategy of the base camp, and the General Staff is drawing up an operational plan, and any operation in North China must be carried out under the premise of ensuring the Jinpu Road operation." Sugiyama Mototo, calmly glanced at Nishio Shouzo.
