8.36 The poison scheme is revealed

After reading the telegram sent by Second Lieutenant Fukuoka, Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara immediately called the commander of the 28th Infantry Brigade, Major General Takashi Sakai, and the chief of staff, Tadayoshi Sano, and now that "the overall situation has been decided", Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara can finally announce his plan!

"Sakai-kun! Sano-kun! Now I have good news for you! The division's 'feint' to move east to Guide has successfully misled Huang Haoran! The Chinese army on the line of Liuyuankou and Chenliukou is moving south in large numbers! It also includes a heavy artillery unit and the same tank unit that fought with the 2nd Wing not long ago! Now Huang Haoran's hole cards have all been revealed! It's our 14th Division's turn to dominate the battlefield! ”

Looking at Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara, who was dancing with some eyebrows, Chief of Staff Tadayoshi Sano was confused for a while. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 When did the plan of the 14th Division to march to Guide turn into a "feint"? Why hasn't he, the chief of staff, heard about it at all?

Major General Takashi Sakai is obviously calmer than Sano Tadayoshi, now that His Excellency the division commander has made a decision, the 28th Brigade is waiting for the order! After Japan launched a full-scale war of aggression against China, Major General Takashi Sakai followed Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara to invade China.

From the landing of the 14th Division from Tanggu, this elite division of the Japanese Army moved from Beiping to Baoding under the command of Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara, and then moved south along the Pinghan Railway, successively occupying Shijiazhuang, Xingtai, Handan, Cixian, Daming, Anyang, Xinxiang, and reaching the crossing of the Yellow River! Due to the rapid advance of the 14th Division, Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara called it "a star on the battlefield in North China" by newspapers in Japan.

Even when Xue Yue led the Chinese army to surround the 14th Division, Major General Takashi Sakai never thought that Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara might not be able to win this battle! Now Major General Takashi Sakai once again saw Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara with that kind of smile that was "unique before victory", and the commander of the 28th Brigade felt even more confident!

Major General Takashi Sakai glanced at Sano Tadashi Osa with some disdain, in Major General Sakai Takashi Dasa's opinion, Sano Tadayoshi Osa, as the chief of staff, is a civilian official after all, and if he really wants to fight, he is inferior to these generals!

How could Sano Tadayoshi not understand the meaning of Major General Takashi Sakai's gaze, but his mind was now focused on the division commander, Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara. From what he said just now, Tadashi Sano heard something, it seems that Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara wants to lead the 14th Division to turn around and fight again! Doesn't this mean that the 14th Division, which has just broken free from the core encirclement of the Chinese army, will soon return to the encirclement of the Chinese army again? Tadayoshi Sano thinks it's too risky!

However, such tactics are very much in line with the character of Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara, the third-generation spy leader of the Great Japanese Empire, the man behind the establishment of Manchukuo and the planning of the autonomy of North China, not only with a conspirator, but also with an adventurer!

"Your Excellency, Division Commander! Now that we have lost our strong city, the Chinese army in the Lanfeng region has shown extraordinary combat effectiveness under the leadership of Huang Haoran! I think it would be more compromising to take action after joining up with the 16th Division!! ”

Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara shook his hand at Sano Tadayoshi Osa, and then said coldly: "Soldier, treacherous way!" You don't understand the military! The human heart is even less understood! ”

Sano Tadayoshi Osa was a little overpowered by the words of Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara! Although the chief of staff of Tadashi Sano has never been in battle, he is also a top student who graduated from the Imperial Army University after all! was told by Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara in front of many officers that he "doesn't understand military affairs", Sano Tadayoshi Osa felt a little dull on his face!

Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara did not stop talking after reprimanding Sano Tadayoshi Osa, and he said to Major General Takashi Sakai, commander of the 28th Brigade, and the officers of the divisional headquarters:

"I hope you haven't forgotten the order given to us by the commander of the front army, General Toshiichi Terauchi! The task of the 14th Division was to penetrate into the inner line of the Chinese army, delay the retreat of the Chinese army, and create an opportunity for the main force of the imperial army to encircle and annihilate the main force of the Chinese army! ”

The Japanese generals of the 14th Division were obviously intimidated by the momentum of Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara, and they all stood straight and listened with their ears straight. Don't look at Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara, who usually looks like he is always smiling, in fact, his methods are very fierce!

The 16 words "insidious and vicious, two-faced, scheming, and good at power tricks" are the 16 words that the officers of the 14th Division summed up the character of Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara behind their backs.

What Sano Tadayoshi did just now in front of Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara was not only not a reflection of bravery, but also a little stupid!

Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara is the supreme master of the 14th Division, how can he have good fruits to eat if he is offended!

Looking at Tadayoshi Sano, who was left aside by Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara, the eyes of the officers were full of sympathy!

"If we really withdraw from the Lan Feng area, or retreat until we wait until we meet with the 16th Division and then turn back to attack the Chinese army, the result will only be to frustrate the planned plan of the front army! The Chinese army will not be waiting for us in Lanfeng all the time! Fighter planes don't stay where they are all the time! If you want to create a big win, you have to take risks! This is the price that must be paid! And I'm not going to fight a battle that I don't have a chance of winning, I've been preparing for a long time to wait for this moment! ”

Speaking of this, Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara's expression became very proud! He swept his gaze over the faces of all the Japanese officers in front of him before continuing:

"Gentlemen! You wouldn't have thought of it! The few infantry brigades that did not break out of the encirclement of the Shina army with you were actually not intercepted by the Shina army! They! It's the strange soldier I put behind the Chinese army! Now that Huang Haoran's main force is following us, the hinterland that was originally heavily guarded by the army has become very empty! Up to two hours later! The warriors lurking behind the Shina army will go straight to Liuyuankou and Chenliukou! And then with a large number of supplies sent by the 20th Division, waiting for us there! I just want to give Huang Haoran a return shot! Our 14th Division is a mechanized unit! Fighting in the field without fortifications, ten divisions of China are no match for us either! ”

When he said that, when he reached the last few sentences, Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara raised his fist and swung it vigorously in mid-air a few times, and his action attracted loud applause from the Japanese officers on the opposite side! After hearing these words, Sano Tadayoshi finally understood the plan in the heart of Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara!

First plant a few "time bombs" in Huang Haoran's hinterland, and then use the main force of the 14th Division to drag Huang Haoran's main force away from the area where the "time bombs" are buried! In this way, the balance of forces between the two sides in the hinterland of the Chinese army will immediately change dramatically! With the eastward advance of a large number of elite troops in China, the "time bombs" left by the 14th Division have changed from a relatively small number at the beginning to a relative majority! The combat effectiveness of the imperial army was already higher than that of the Chinese army! Now it has a numerical advantage again! It would be easy to recapture the two supply bases of Liuyuankou and Chenliukou!

This trick of "avoiding the real is virtual" is really amazing! Sano Tadayoshi Osa has to admit that he is far inferior to Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara! Previously, Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara broke out of the encirclement of the Shina army with the main force of the 14th Division, and Sano Tadayoshi Osa also scolded Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara for being greedy for life and afraid of death, and passively avoiding war! Now it seems that Sano Tadayoshi Osa was so stupid in the first place!

If Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara didn't use this move on Huang Haoran, then the 14th Division would only have two choices! The first is to immediately counterattack Liuyuankou and Chenliukou and restore the supply line; The second is to completely withdraw from the Lanfeng battlefield and end in failure! At that time, the 14th Division had been cut off from the source of supplies by Huang Haoran, and everyone knew that the 14th Division was most likely to choose the first plan! It is impossible for Huang Haoran not to lay heavy troops at Liuyuankou and Chen Liukou, and open his pockets and wait for the 14th Division to come to the door! Judging from the performance of the Chinese army after Huang Haoran took over, the 14th Division really did not have the absolute confidence to recapture Liuyuankou and Chen Liukou in the hands of the strict Chinese army! Once this counterattack was dragged into a protracted battle by Huang Haoran, the 14th Division could only fill it with troops without hesitation until all the flesh and blood of the 14th Division were exhausted!

In other words, in fact, the 14th Division was left with the option of retreating at that time! The eastward retreat and the rendezvous of the 16th Division were actually to announce that this interspersed operation ended in failure!

And now, everything is different! Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara's clever plan will enable the 14th Division to recover the two supply bases of Liuyuankou and Chenliukou without much cost! At the same time, the 14th Division also got a chance to fight head-on with the Chinese army! Just like what Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara just said! As a slight mechanized unit in the Japanese Army, the 14th Division would not be afraid of any Chinese army without fortifications!

Even if Huang Haoran's trump card 25th Group Army participated in the battle, under such field conditions, it would never be the opponent of the 14th Division!

It seems that Sano Tadayoshi Osa has seen the Shina army crumble in the face of the powerful offensive of the 14th Division! Lanfeng, Sanyizhai, Luowang Station, these strategic points returned to the hands of the 14th Division one after another!

"Your Excellency, Division Commander! Please forgive me for being rude! I hope you will give me a chance to atone for my sins! ”

Sano Tadayoshi Osa took a step forward hard, and then bent down to plead with Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara, and in the face of the victory that seemed to be "within reach", Sano Tadayoshi Osa succumbed!

Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara's poisonous plan! It was really tempting for the Japanese officers of the 14th Division!
