Chapter 406: Just Wait to Be Slapped in the Face
"There are so many changes that it's hard to count them for a while. It's not easy to deduce, you can only see what their next move will be. Pharmacist Tang said cautiously, "Relatively speaking, it may be more beneficial to us, and the most headache should be Jiang Zhongzheng." There is no other lord in the country! "Wang Jingwei's puppet political axe has not yet been established, and some specific policies have not yet been promulgated, so it is difficult to judge what the future trend will be.
Originally, Meng Xiang knew a little bit about it, but with the establishment of the Wang puppet regime a year ahead of schedule, he couldn't figure out what their future movements would be. But one thing must remain the same, that is, the Wang puppet regime is definitely still a puppet regime that serves himself.
"The puppet political axe has been established, and the puppet army may become a key team attacking us in the next step." Fan Chong frowned and said.
"We are not afraid of devils, but we are still afraid of the puppet army? It's right. It's just that it's a pity that they were pushed up as cannon fodder. However, since they have become Han Jian, they should have been aware of such a fate. Meng Xiang chuckled.
More than half of the historical puppet army ranks have gone. Most of North China fell into the hands of the vanguard army, and those puppet armies had long since dispersed. Even in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, many stragglers of the Central Army were absorbed into the first guerrilla column of the first guerrilla column of the first rat.
With the victory of the vanguard army step by step, the Chinese people are no longer confused, and there are many fewer people who are willing to be Han annihilators. Some of the measures proposed by the vanguard army to deal with the Han annihilation also made many puppet troops dare not be arrogant. The vanguard army said very clearly: those who have no evil deeds can be spared, those who have meritorious deeds can be rewarded, and those who are willing to be annihilated by the Han will never escape punishment.
The vanguard army did what it said, and the puppet army of the puppet political axe in North China went through a major combing, which impressed the Chinese people. How can Wang's puppet army not be afraid, everyone knows that according to the strength of the vanguard army, they may be able to drive Yue himself out of China one day. When the time comes, how will these puppet soldiers deal with themselves? At this time, it is not as good as saying that when I was like Zhongtian, every puppet army did not do it steadily, and naturally did not dare to do more to practice the people.
When encountering the vanguard army, it is even more vulnerable, they already know that when they encounter the vanguard army, it is better to raise their arms and surrender, than to lose a surname.
At the same time, in Zhengzhou City, Tada Jun, who had been on the front line to cheer up the soldiers, was having a headache with a group of puppet troops organized locally.
After nearly half of Henan's areas were occupied, the large and small organizations in those occupied areas were mixed, and there were always people who were greedy for money and profit. said that he easily pulled up a puppet army team. But this team, when attacking the vanguard, was blown apart by three huge cannons.
"These Imperial Allies are vulnerable to the vanguard army! Counting on them against the vanguard army is a joke. "Tada Jun has always been not optimistic about the combat effectiveness of the puppet army. After several battles, the puppet army was doing some sundries in the rear, hoping that they would not be able to fight, and when they fled, they often affected the defense of the army. And sometimes the surrenders are done in teams.
"When the vanguard army attacks, those imperial alliance troops may be crushed in one blow. But if it is an attack, and the law enforcement team is closely followed, those Imperial Cooperative troops can sometimes exert good combat effectiveness. "Itagaki Seishiro returned to Huaxia again, feeling the weakness of Huaxia intelligence, Kenji Dohihara was specially assigned to deal with intelligence affairs, the post of chief of the General Staff was vacant, and Itagaki Seishiro came to an agent.
"Each team of the Imperial Allied Army must be led by Imperial soldiers. Otherwise, they have all sorts of means to get away with it. The people of China are the best at making excuses. "At this time, there were also many puppet soldiers in the army, but they dispersed as soon as they went to the battlefield, and Tada Jun had already learned it several times.
"It doesn't matter if the combat effectiveness is not strong, we just need to send people and let the vanguard army kill. From the age of twelve to sixty, they were all sent until the vanguard was killed. We are sending soldiers to attack, not to carry the people, what can the vanguard say? I don't believe that they will keep killing. Anyway, no matter how many people die, not a single one of our imperial soldiers will die. On the contrary, the young laborers in the occupied areas of China were exterminated, and the remaining land and women belonged to our empire. Seishiro Itagaki didn't care.
"Roar. However, if those puppet soldiers resist, it will be difficult to deal with it. Tada Jun sighed, the Chinese people are too many, even a group of honest old cattle, once they run wild, they can trample a wolf to death.
"It's okay for them to sneak around, but resist, will they? One Imperial soldier can control a hundred Imperial Allies, and we also compete with the Vanguard Army in crowd tactics. Seishiro Itagaki said indifferently.
The General Headquarters of the Vanguard Army was still in its original place and had not moved.
"Those puppet soldiers don't have to worry, after all, they are all Chinese. Usually they don't give their lives to attack. Pharmacist Tang said with a smile. This situation has happened a lot before, and the fighting in the internal struggle is generally not too intense, such as the Central Plains War and the Beiyang melee before. Anyway, it's a big deal to surrender, and there are no ruthless ones, of course, there are exceptions.
"If I force them to come, it will still cause some trouble. It's not good for one's own people to kill one's own people, no matter what the reason. Fan Chong shook his head slightly, "I heard that I also used my family to force the puppet army to charge, and after a mutiny, I have never done it again." But I can't be sure, I said that I will still use this trick. When the time comes, we'll be dealing with outlaws. ”
"It's simple, and it's a draw. We occupied Henan, and soon eliminated their worries. Pharmacist Tang reminded again.
"Hehe, since Wang Jingwei wants to set up a pseudo-political axe on the sixteenth day of the first month, then we will give him a big gift on that day!" Meng Xiang said with a smile.
March 6 is the sixteenth day of the first month of the lunar calendar.
Wang Jingwei also followed the guidance of the master and chose this day to set up a new political axe. This day is a sting, with the meaning of the revival of all things.
He had been preparing for this day for a long time. He wanted to take Huaxia out of a way in his own way.
Those who are in high positions and lead the way, none of them are not those who have great perseverance, and they recognize their own direction and go to the black. Whether they are loyal or annihilated, they are all explorers who are at the forefront of the times. At that point, you can only find your own way to break through the fog of the future. It's just that the road they took had its own twists and turns, and it was obvious that Lao Wang had taken the wrong path.
Wrong is wrong, and there is no reason for it. Perhaps in the history of human evolution, those who are subservient will get better conditions and be born secretly, and those who are upright will die early, but the difference between humans and animals is the sublimation of the soul and spirit, not simply survival for the sake of survival.
"Huaxia is too weak, so you always have to rely on it. If you insist on resisting, Huaxia's vitality will be damaged too much. How will it be revived in the future? Wang Jingwei gave himself an explanation more than once. However, there are few people on the side of the Central Army, and even the minds of the people in the occupied areas have no intention of subordinating. If it is said that what Wang Jingwei said before is very marketable in China, but with the rise of the vanguard army, it seems that people are more inclined to drive Yue out and do not need to live in humiliation.
Even Wang Jingwei himself was a little shaken, but he was about to push him out. said that I missed again and again, and I needed someone to stand in front. After hanging up the signboard of the Chinese people's infighting, it is easy to eliminate part of the resistance.
In this way, just after Wang Jingwei was injured in the assassination, he was secretly taken to Nanjing by himself and began to integrate the Republic of China Restoration Axe, which had been established in Nanjing in March 38. With Wang Jingwei, he threw Liang Hongzhi aside. Of course, he is much stronger than Wang Kemin, who was executed by the vanguard army, and at least he has a supervising dean in him.
When Wang Jingwei stood on the steps of the former presidential palace in Nanjing and accepted the cheers of everyone below, his heart was a little fluttering for a while.
"I will carry on the will of the prime minister and lead the ......" When he was assing his orthodox identity and reading his inaugural speech, not far away, the super large cake that someone proposed to send suddenly burst open, and pieces of yellow and white flew out of it. The cream mixed with the smell of feces spilled on everyone present. Let the men and women who were piling up smiling faces and catering to the flashing lights of the reporters stood on the spot. Some people who reacted quickly and were agile even rolled some more yellow and white objects on the ground.
"Yikes!" As the flashing lights flickered again, a few women's screams were the first to alert the sluggish people.
"Check, check it for me!" Kenji Dohihara said angrily, and although it wasn't obvious that there were a few thin yellow objects hanging from his pants, it was disgusting to think about it.
The crowd was looking around.
"Get all the film from those reporters' cameras!" Kenji Tsuchihara shouted.
With such a scene, you can imagine what kind of joke it would be if the photo was sent out. It's impossible to block the news, but at least you can save a little face without pictures.
"Protest, protest! I am a legal citizen of the United States of America, and you cannot take my camera. ”
"I am a journalist for the German Empire, and you are doing this as a provocation to our Empire."
This time, the domestic reporters and the reporters from this book can say that these foils they found must be obedient and obedient. But this time, there were also a lot of foreign reporters here, and the people who came to ask for the film at the beginning said all the good things, but how could these people care about this, and finally caught a big news, how could they easily let it go. So some of the gendarmes began to loot by force.
"Stupid, isn't it more shameful for them to go back and hype it up. Use your brain! It costs money! "Kenji Dohihara has just changed his clothes. I couldn't help but be even more annoyed when I heard it. Why don't these people have brains? Offended those journalists, and expected them to say good things about you?
So, there was another burst of chickens and dogs.
"It turned out that there was a cake shop in Shanghai that opened last year, and the business was booming. This time, the cake was specially made for them. When it was delivered, it was specially checked, and there was no metal reaction and no traces of bombs. "It didn't take long for my subordinates to send an investigation report.
"There are no traces of bombs, why did they explode? Don't tell me it's just a simple little trick, it's just a child's trick. "The residual energy of the soil fertilizer has not disappeared. Although the ceremony was postponed for a while, they continued to change their costumes and held it in another place, but looking at the listlessness of everyone, I knew that the ceremony was messed up. Although the reporters' films were collected, there must have been other films lost outside. The person who made this scene was definitely not a simple prank.
He really didn't know that Meng Xiang really just wanted a prank at first, only using the resources of a spy, plus some eyeliner from the intelligence department in Shanghai, he didn't expect it to have such a good effect. With such an opportunity, he naturally refused to let it go, and the spy cameras hidden everywhere faithfully recorded all this.
When this incident was quickly circulated and became a joke among people, unknown photos and images made people laugh. In particular, the pile of yellow and white things mixed with cream on the top of Wang Jingwei's head and the yellow and white things mixed with cream were particularly conspicuous. Wang's puppet political axe became a big joke from the beginning.
"It's a pity, why wasn't it a bomb at the time, and it wouldn't be over if he was killed." Someone regretted it. On the same day, the news was released, and the pioneer radio also wanted to report it, and the media under the central political axe continued to broadcast it, lest Wang Jingwei be disgusted and immortal, and the efficiency was far faster than in the past.
"There is a Wang Jingwei dead, maybe there are Li Jingwei and Zhang Jingwei. This made him lose face, and it was even more painful than his death. Someone laughed.
"It deserves it, it's called evil retribution." Someone relieved his breath and said, "The dead man will not end well." ”
In the heated discussion, there is always no unified answer to one question. That is, who did this play?
Some people speculate that it is the Central Army, some people speculate that it is the students' personal anger, some people speculate that it is the vanguard army, and some people speculate that it is civil strife.
Soon, the rumor that Liang Hongzhi was not angry with Wang Jingwei's seizure of power and that this move would make Wang Jingwei lose face was widely circulated in the market, and even Liang Hongzhi himself was included in the object of suspicion. After all, many people along the way are Liang Hongzhi's, and this time it just made people ugly, not a bomb, but made me guess that there were many insiders. They didn't suspect that the spies of the vanguard army, who were also like themselves, were scared that Liang Hongzhi and his party were much more honest, and Lao Wang took the opportunity to take away more rights.
Meng Xiang also smiled when he heard this, Wang Jingwei was still able to guide the situation when he was embarrassed, and pointed the finger at Liang Hongzhi to suppress him, which was also a bit of a heroic method.
However, no matter what kind of male it is, it is not clear what the general trend is, and it can only be in vain. With the rise of the modern state and nationalism, it is natural for elites, who are more and more accepting of external influences, to value reading power even more. If he is linked to Britain and the United States, he can still pull the fig leaf of freedom and boiling, and at most get the title of comprador; If it is linked to Soviet Russia, maybe it can be mixed with an advanced title; But Lao Wang was still holding his thigh, which he couldn't wait to grab directly on Huaxia's plate, but he suddenly confirmed the name of the Great Han Annihilation.
"Since you have become a big man, just wait to be slapped in the face!" Meng Xiang said with a smile, "Start implementing the plan across the shore." ”
In order to alleviate the tense atmosphere caused by the person in the past two years, some places have also put up lanterns and prepared to take advantage of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to whitewash the peace.
Of course, in the city of Zhengzhou, these places are not good, and the devils prohibit these gatherings in order to prevent the entry of the vanguard army. Not only do they prohibit gatherings, but they are also very strict about the movement of people. In order to prevent the vanguard army from crossing the river, on the south bank of the Yellow River, they also set up large and small fortresses, some of which were directly built on the banks of the Yellow River.
They had already seen that the vanguard army would not use huge artillery to bombard the embankment of the Yellow River, and the vanguard army wanted to cross the river, and in the face of these fortress fortifications, they could only fill it with human flesh. At the same time, there were a lot of anti-aircraft artillery concentrated in the city of Zhengzhou, and there was an airfield near Xuchang, and it was impossible for the vanguard army to be airborne. Although their planes are not good in air combat, they are still enough to deal with the transport planes of the vanguard army.
Although the devil's 116th Division suffered serious losses, the 10th, 13th, and 16th Divisions did not suffer much damage, the 16th Division was guarding Zhengzhou, the 10th Division was guarding Gongxian, and the 13th Division was guarding Kaifeng. They also took into account Xuchang, Xinzheng and other places, and confronted Tang Enbo's troops in Funiu Mountain and other places. But their focus is still on the vanguard army opposite.
These three divisions are all old opponents of the vanguard army. Although they have been defeated and fought repeatedly, the combat effectiveness of these teacher groups is also very strong, and they cannot be killed easily.
They defended on the edge of the Yellow River, and even made the Yellow River defense line like an impregnable wall. It's not easy to break through.
"There is no line of defense that cannot be broken, and the Maginot has been bypassed, so are we stupid enough to crash straight into it?" The Yellow River embankment could not withstand too much artillery bombardment, which made Meng Xiang fearful, but it did not mean that there was no way.
He also considered the issue of a detour attack by the vanguard army. Bypassing the Yellow River is nothing more than from the east and west sides.
There are 13 divisions in Kaifeng in the east, and if they can attract the vanguard army to attack from the east, the scale is large, and they may directly break the embankment. This is also one of the reasons why the vanguard army must first solve the problem of the Yellow River embankment in the Kaifeng area of Zhengzhou before attacking the land of Lianghuai. On the west side is the assistance of the devils of Jiaozuo and Gongxian. In my opinion, these places, which are also full of fortifications, are also fine.
But they seem to have forgotten one place, and that is the south side.
In the south, from Yuncheng and Yexian to the south, the 14th Division was guarded, and they had a long-term confrontation with the Central Army in Xinyang and other places. To this end, Tada Jun set up the headquarters in Xuchang. But at this time, he was in Zhengzhou to personally command the frontline. As long as the Yellow River defense line is not lost, they can sit back and relax, as for the Central Army, it is good that they can hold their positions, and they are not afraid of their counterattack.
So there was a Yellow River defense line to rely on behind, and there was almost no defense behind it, after all, manpower and material resources were limited, and he concentrated all his energy in the direction of the vanguard army.
Especially on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, they received information early that the vanguard army was gathering on the other side of the Yellow River, and there were signs of planning to cross the river.
"The naked eye can see the mobilization of the vanguard army, do they really want to cross the Yellow River desperately?" Seishiro Itagaki was a little unconvinced. In this way, although the vanguard army may be able to succeed with their superiority in firepower, their losses will inevitably be large.
"Strengthen the vigilance of the river defense!" Tada Jun also did not dare to be careless, and ordered the devils to raise their vigilance on the other side of the Yellow River to the extreme.
After waiting for a long time, there was not much movement, but seeing that the vanguard army was still gathering, they did not dare to relax.
But when the tank units of the vanguard army rushed out from behind, each of them was stunned.
"What? Behind the appearance of the chariot units of the Vanguard Army? Or hundreds? Is it from the Vanguard? Tada Jun was also shocked.
"How did their chariots come here?" Seishiro Itagaki also frowned, puzzled.
But now what they need is to quickly block the tank units of the Vanguard, but where is the torrent of steel consisting of 60 T-34 tanks and 40 armored personnel carriers of the SDKFZ251/1 type so easily blocked. said that his interception force was directly crushed into the bloody mud by the tracks.
With the protection of armored vehicles, the devil's human bomb was torn apart by the machine gun of the MG-34 before it could get over. The other infantry teams are not worth mentioning, the artillery bombardment of the devils, although under the intensive firepower, the vanguard army was blown up two tanks, but it still could not stop the rolling of the steel torrent, and the armored troops that continued to rush forward have been flooding the five artillery positions of the devils, and they came to the Yellow River defense line on a rampage.
The guns of those forts on the banks of the Yellow River were only aimed at the Yellow River, and the improvised machine guns were simply tickling the T-34. The 76-mm tank guns were directly named one by one, and those fortress fortifications flew into the sky directly under the direct bombardment of the tanks rushing to them. Within 300 meters, tank guns can be directly aimed at human targets.
It took less than two hours from the appearance of the vanguard armoured troops to the capture of a large section of the Yellow River defense line.
Some of the soldiers on the armored vehicle jumped out of the car and, with the cooperation of the armored vehicle, cleared the remnants of the enemy in the surrounding ruins. The planes of the Air Vanguard also flew more than 30 bombers at once, constantly cooperating with the tank troops to bombard the devil's artillery positions in the distance.
After the crisp sound of Suomi that lasted for more than ten minutes, the defense line on the south bank of the Yellow River, which was 3 kilometers wide, was completely cleared. On the other side of the river, the sappers of the vanguard army had already begun to erect pontoon bridges. Although the Yellow River is still frozen and has not melted, it is not very safe. But with this ice, the pontoon bridge was erected much faster. With the rapid cooperation of the engineering team, the modular pontoon block produced by the base quickly appeared.
