Chapter 614: The Kwantung Army, which has nothing to do

Changchun, the headquarters of the Japanese Kwantung Army, thousands of kilometers away from Shenyang, was also attacked on a large scale that night. However, after all, Changchun City is the location of the Supreme Headquarters of the Japanese Kwantung Army, and its defense strength and various alert forces in the city are almost several times that of Shi Yang. In the explosion for half an hour, nearly 100 intelligence officers and special operators paid a huge price for tonight's attack. However, the huge price was only in exchange for the destruction of the Changchun Police Station, power plant, grain depot, etc., which were not heavily defended by the Japanese army. At this moment, with the sound of explosions one after another, they began to sound in the urban area of Changchun. Coupled with the explosion of the power plant, the whole city was suddenly covered in darkness. The entire Kwantung Army headquarters was immediately plunged into panic and chaos. Even the commander, General Umezu Mijiro, hurriedly rushed to the bed and got up. Then he sat in the dimly lit headquarters with a gloomy face, waiting for the latest news to come. Finally, while everyone was waiting, a combat staff officer rushed to the general out of breath and replied, Your Excellency, the explosions in the city have been fully detected. ”

What's going on with the explosions in the city, what's going on at the power plant, so that the whole city will go without power? ”

Your Excellency Commander Hai. At the sound of the explosion just now, the Changchun Police Station, the power plant, the grain depot, the Manchurian Army barracks, and the special task force station were simultaneously attacked by the enemy on a large scale. The troops that were attacked suffered heavy losses in both troops and materiel.

It is currently being counted. The combat staff officer replied. A commander is a commander after all. Hearing the answer of the operational staff officer, the entire command headquarters of all ranks, except for the general himself, immediately fell into shock. What's more, they have begun to scold and threaten to retaliate. Looking at the chaos in front of him, the command headquarters couldn't bear it, and the general slammed the table in front of him and roared loudly.

Enough is enough to give me silence. Noisy and noisy, this is the Supreme Command of the Kwantung Army, not a vegetable market. Operational staff whether our army captured all the people who participated in the sneak attack. In any case, we must destroy them to deter the Chinese who still have a sense of resistance, and at the same time avenge the broken imperial warriors. "But what disappointed the general was the momentary silence in the headquarters. The operational staff officer standing in front of him did not give the answer he wanted.

Your Excellency the Commander reports on the basis of the garrison unit assigned to the assignment. No suspicious Chinese were found around several blast sites. After some searching, it was found that the Chinese who had attacked our army in the city had safely withdrawn from Shenyang City along the sewers in the city and escaped our pursuit. ”

What actually allowed them to escape. How could this be the case with the eight-grid tooth road. Call me Nakajima-kun from the intelligence agency right away. There is such a big thing happening in the city, why hasn't there been any reaction from his intelligence agency so far. "At this moment, no matter how much the general's mind is, the city government successfully escaped in the face of the sneak attacker, which is almost a slap in the face. He couldn't hold back the anger in his heart anymore and roared loudly at the combat staff officer in front of him. However, as soon as Umezu Mijiro's words fell, a communications staff officer at the headquarters hurriedly rushed into the headquarters and stood in front of him, panting and said, Report to Your Excellency the Commander, Shenyang urgent telegram "

Nani Shenyang City? Looking at the communications staff officer in front of him, who seemed to be sweating beads of sweat on his forehead in the cold night. The general faintly felt a trace of uneasiness in his heart. He frowned tightly, quickly took the telegram handed by the communications staff officer, and began to read it at a glance. But just as his eyes were fixed on the contents of the telegram in one hand. Umezu Mijiro's eyes immediately widened, and his face showed a look of shock.

What happened to Your Excellency the Commander? I saw the instant change in Umezu Mijiro's face. The chief of staff, who was very good at observing words and feelings, asked in a low voice.

Baga, cunning and despicable people, I will definitely break all of you into ten thousand pieces. After handing the telegram in his hand to the chief of staff in front of him with a puzzled face. General Mijiro Umezu clenched his fists and scolded fiercely.

But tonight's bad news is much more than that. This telegram from Chunyang in his hand was just the beginning. Just when the chief of staff read the telegram in his hand, there was also a shocked look on his face. Another communications staff officer rushed into the command headquarters panting, and said with an anxious expression. , Your Excellency Commander Fengtian urgently"

Your Excellency the Commander's Anshan Emergency Telegram: "In an instant, one after another the urgent telegram flew into the commander's hands like snowflakes. Looking at the telegram after telegram in his hand that seemed to have no end in sight. The commander, General Umezu Mijiro, could no longer hold back the monstrous anger in his heart and roared loudly at the officers in front of him.

Enough, all the telegrams were sent to the staff for processing, I just want to see the final result. The deputy chief of staff immediately ordered all officers of major general and above who remained in Changchun, as well as the highest commanders of departments directly under the headquarters. Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock in the meeting room of the headquarters. Absence for any reason is prohibited. ”

As soon as the order was given, General Umezu Mijiro collapsed on the seat behind him as if he had suddenly lost his skeleton and collapsed on the seat behind him like a puddle of flesh. Then he slowly closed his eyes, ignoring the chaotic war room around him. Early the next morning, when the frowning Admiral Umezu Mijiro had just walked into the conference room, a salute reached his ears. Immediately after that, what met Umezu Mijiro's eyes were more than a dozen generals who carried gold stars on their shoulders, plus more than a dozen junior officers of the direct department, standing in front of him without moving and saluting him. Seeing the scene in front of him, the mood was not very good, and the gloomy face of Umezu Mijiro just waved his hand in return. Then, under the surprised gaze of the officers, the chief of staff with the same gloomy face behind him walked straight to his seat. General Umezu Mijiro, Chief of Staff, sat down in their seats with a gloomy face. The dozens of officers who stood still in their positions sat down cautiously. However, looking at the gloomy faces of the two commanders in front of them, almost all of them held their breath and sat motionless, sitting on their stools like a sculpture. I was afraid that one of my careless actions would lead the anger in the heart of the commander in front of me to himself. After a pair of sharp eyes swept over dozens of large and small officers in front of him, General Umezu Mijiro finally spoke: "Everyone, last night, our Changchun was attacked by a small group of enemy troops, and many places suffered immeasurable losses. I think everyone here should be very clear about this," but as soon as Umezu Mijiro's words fell, beads of sweat could not help but appear on the foreheads of several officers who sat down. And the most obvious of them are the Supreme Commander of the Military Police Command and the intelligence agency of Nakajima Daisa. Because the urban area of Changchun was attacked by a small group of armed forces, the two of them bear unshirkable responsibility. If General Umezu Mijiro in front of him wants to be held accountable, it is enough to send the two men to a military court for trial based on what happened last night. Thinking of this, the faces of the two people immediately showed panicked looks. Even the beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead didn't dare to wipe it.

As for the remaining officers in the conference room, who had nothing to do with the matter, there was a hint of schadenfreude on their faces. After all, there is very strong competition in any kind of army. And with competition comes crowding. At this moment, the officers who had nothing to do with the matter seemed to be hoping that the commander in front of them would be able to bring the two parties court-martialed. And the dozens of officers in front of him had different expressions on their faces, and without exception, all of them were reflected in the sharp eyes of General Umezu Mijiro. Thinking of the huge losses incurred by the entire Kwantung Army after the attack last night and one night. Looking at the entire Kwantung Army in front of him, it was a life-and-death juncture, while his subordinates were still fighting for power and profit, and they could not unite and put their minds on dealing with the current crisis. General Umezu Mijiro, the supreme commander with an army of nearly one million in his hands, could only shake his head very helplessly and continued.

Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that at this moment, everyone thinks that last night's losses are nothing for the entire northeastern province, at best, a drop in the bucket. But now I want to tell you that the losses suffered by our Kwantung Army last night were far greater than everyone imagined, and they were much greater. Chief of Staff, please inform all of you about the total losses incurred by our Kwantung Army units last night. After speaking, General Umezu Mijiro nodded to the chief of staff beside him. The eyes of all the people in the entire room were focused on the Chief of Staff at the same time. And under everyone's gaze, the chief of staff stood up from his seat and said with a gloomy face. ,

What I'm going to tell you now. Last night, not only our city of Shenyang was attacked by the enemy, but it suffered heavy losses. In the entire northeastern province, there are county seats, including Shenyang, Fengtian, Harbing, and other large cities, which were attacked by a large number of enemy armed men at the same time. Of course, Changchun, where our Kwantung Army headquarters is located, was also not spared. ”

How could Nani. It is impossible to absolutely not drag "(net

Provide the fastest updates)

It can't be necessarily mistaken. The entire northeastern province of Northeast China, except for our Great Japanese Imperial Kwantung Army, simply did not have any forces with combat effectiveness to launch such a large-scale attack, must have been mistaken? ”

Chief of Staff: Is this true, how is it possible that so many cities are really being attacked at the same time? For a moment, the entire conference room was immediately drowned out by everyone's exclamations and noises. Looking at the conference room in front of him, which had once again become like a vegetable market, and looking at the commander and chief of staff who were already angry because of anger in front of him, he couldn't help but want to open his mouth to stop the wedding scene in front of him. However, before he could speak, a roar suppressed everyone's voices like a thunderclap, and so many cities in Yaga were attacked at the same time, which was obviously a premeditated attack launched by the enemy on our Kwantung Army. Such a large-scale attack was carried out without the detection of our intelligence services. Your Excellency the Commander wants to ask Nakajima Osa what the Kwantung Army intelligence agency is doing? ”

In an instant, the entire conference room fell silent. Everyone stared at their own eyes at the same time, staring unblinkingly at the head of the secret service in front of them, who had always been at odds with the intelligence agencies and often competed with each other. Facing everyone's gaze, facing a pair of angry eyes in the face of Nakado Daisa. The head of the secret service, Amasho Daisa, did not hesitate and continued to speak, Your Excellency the commander, who thinks that the combat intelligence agency that happened last night bears an unshirkable responsibility. "However, there is a strong and well-founded statement about the pre-emptive prolapse. General Umezu Mijiro did not hesitate to interrupt Tensho Daisa's words. Then he shifted his gaze to Nakajima Daisa's body and asked.

When is the time of Baga, and he is still fighting for power. The urgency of the delay now is how to resolve the matter rather than hold accountable. Nakajima-kun: You're the head of the intelligence agency, what do you think about last night's attack? After receiving the commander's personal relief, Nakajima Osa immediately stood up with a grateful face and said to the commander in front of him.

Hayi: Thank you, Your Excellency Commander, for your trust. He thought that the action that took place last night must have been the revenge of the Eighth Route Army in the Mengshan area for the actions of our intelligence agency a week ago. A week ago, our intelligence agency eliminated more than 100 intelligence personnel and a special operations brigade of the Eighth Route Army by luring snakes out of their holes and other tactics. And the Eighth Route Army in the Mengshan area must have launched a retaliatory attack on our Kwantung Army because it had suffered such huge losses. ”

Nani retaliatory attack? Do you have any suggestions and opinions on this? After a brief shock, the commander, General Umezu Mijiro, nodded suddenly, glanced at the dozens of officers in front of him, and then asked. At this moment, a major general officer of the Shaozhuang faction suddenly stood up and said, Your Excellency, Commander, you have something to say. ”

Aoki-kun, if you have anything to say, you can say it," the commander, General Mijiro Umezu, nodded and said.

Hay. Judging from the scale of last night's attack, the Eighth Route Army, which was entrenched in the Mengshan area, had developed into a force that posed the greatest threat to our Kwantung Army in the entire northeastern province. Add to this the fact that this hostile force is located in our heartland, and its danger is already even greater than that of the Soviet Red Army in the Far East. Everyone in the conference room nodded with their answers, and Aoki continued.

Therefore, I think that the urgent need for our Kwantung Army to delay now is to concentrate its forces and deal with this hostile force in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, one day in the future, when this force grows stronger. Or the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the Mengshan area and the field army of the Eighth Route Army in Guannei converged. Then our northeastern province will inevitably fall into an even greater crisis situation. Therefore, I ask His Excellency the Commander to make a decision as soon as possible. ”

Your Excellency the Commander, please make a decision as soon as possible to send troops to Mengshan," as soon as Major General Aoki's words fell. Almost all the officers of the Young Zhuang faction in the entire conference room said in unison. Facing the more than a dozen young Zhuang faction officers in front of him, the commander of the Young Zhuang faction, Umezu Mijiro, was very relieved, and he also had the idea of sending troops. But at this moment, he could only shake his head very helplessly. Then he spoke.

Guys, it's not that I don't want to retaliate against the Eighth Route Army in the Mengshan area. It's just that we simply don't have enough ability to dispatch hundreds of thousands of troops in a short period of time to retaliate against the Eighth Route Army in the Mengshan area. As for the specific situation, I would like to ask the chief of staff to introduce it to you."

Your Excellency Commander Hai. The specific situation of you is as follows: during last night's attack, all the arsenals that our Kwantung Army troops had hoarded in a northeastern province were completely destroyed. More than half of the arsenals destroyed were located in the county strongholds in the area around Mengshan. Seeing that everyone's faces were still puzzled and questioning, the chief of staff continued to speak.

It's a little more realistic. At present, in the area around Mengshan, our 100,000 Kwantung Army troops will not be able to receive new ammunition replenishment from the headquarters in time for at least half a year. Then these 100,000 troops will inevitably fall into the predicament of running out of ammunition and food. Think about it, in the face of such a bad situation, do we still have the ability to transfer a large army to encircle the troops of the Eighth Route Army in the Chomeng Mountain area in a short period of time?
