Chapter 354: Kill one and make an example

However, for this Okajima Shigemoshi Osa lost all his troops, but he escaped by luck. Lieutenant General Honda Masasai, the new division commander who succeeded Lieutenant General Tsukada, no matter how much he praised Lotus, was really difficult to accept. It is believed that this practice is quite insulting to the honor of the imperial officers, and the spirit of fighting to the end with the soldiers.

In addition to this very shameless Okajima Shigetoshi, pointing to the bayonet scar on his face, he kept screaming against the sky. repeatedly said that he had been fighting bloody battles with the anti-Manchurian forces to the end, and even did not hesitate to fight white-knuckle battles with the enemy in person as the captain of the Dazuo Wing, and stabbed two enemy soldiers.

Although he finally escaped alone, it was not that he was greedy for life and afraid of death. It was because the overall battle situation was irretrievable that he finally chose to move in. It's not that they abandoned their subordinates, but they became addicted to drugs and lost all their ability to act, that is, they couldn't fight and couldn't break through. In desperation, he could only turn in alone.

Although no one can prove whether this guy's name is Hit Tianqu or not, no one can prove that he is lying. And this guy deserves to be a graduate of the Army University, this eloquence is quite remarkable. After some rhetoric, the officers who examined him were impressed. Instead of anyone agreeing with the treatment, the collective wanted to give him credit.

In addition, the special situation that the entire Eighth Division had a drug addiction attack at that time and was no longer able to fight, Lieutenant General Honda Masato also had to consider it. After many scrutinies, no suspicions were found in this guy. Even if he didn't believe him anymore, Lieutenant General Honda Masako could only find an excuse to transfer him to the reserves.

However, the 8th Division, which was reorganized last year, was once again severely damaged, and only Kobayashishima was left alone among the three captains of the Osajima Division. At present, the Japanese army is constantly expanding, and there is not enough wing commanders with actual combat experience like him. Under the protection of his father-in-law, a former major general, and several classmates from the Army University, he was transferred back to active duty.

But even he was not promoted to a position, nor was he promoted to a military rank. After several discussions, under the care and suggestion of his classmate and fellow countryman who served in the Army Military Affairs Bureau, he was allowed to return to the Fifth Wing to continue to serve as his wing commander. In the name of it, if the soldiers of the empire fall from there, they will get up there.

This old man also became the largest capture in the history of the Japanese Army during the Baoqing Battle in 40, when the entire Eighth Division was addicted to drugs and was completely annihilated. The Eighth Division, from the division commander to the squad leader below, is the only one who is still serving in the Eighth Division.

That drug addiction incident, which caused a sensation in almost the entire Japanese Army, caused great bad luck for the Eighth Division from top to bottom, from the division commander to the ordinary soldiers below. None of the troops involved in the war were addicted, and almost all of them died on the battlefield. Those who were addicted to drugs basically went to prisoner of war camps. The troops left behind in the rear also carried out strict purge after the war.

All officers and non-commissioned officers who became addicted to drugs were expelled from the military after compulsory drug rehabilitation. Those who did not become addicted to drugs were also transferred to the reserves. All the soldiers who remained on the battlefield and did not become addicted to drugs were transferred to serve on the main front. Those who are addicted to drugs should recover after compulsory drug rehabilitation.

The Japanese army's handling of this incident can be described as unprecedented. In the 226 incident of the Japanese Army in 36 years, only the officers were dealt with, and the non-commissioned officers and soldiers below were not implicated. And this time, those officers and non-commissioned officers who were addicted to drugs under unknown circumstances were not only all rehabilitated, but also did not even get into the reserves.

Even those who were not addicted to drugs were forcibly transferred to the reserves. In the reorganized Eighth Division, not only all the officers were replaced, but even the ordinary soldiers were also replaced. Coupled with last year's losses, Okajima Shigetoshi, who was re-transferred to active duty, almost became the only old man in the Eighth Division after the Battle of Baoqing.

And his brother reappeared in the list of the captain of the Japanese army, but he was confused by the anti-Japanese intelligence department. At first, I thought this guy had come back from the dead, or a person with the same name and surname. But judging from the resume, it is simply a person. This made the intelligence department, which was responsible for interrogating the prisoners, for a long time, not understand what was going on.

It wasn't until Guo Bingxun, who was strict by nature, immediately ordered the Intelligence Department to re-interrogate the officers and soldiers of the Fifth Wing who had been captured the year before last that the reason for this guy's resurrection from the dead was discovered. I even knew that among the senior officers of the Japanese army, there was such an alternative guy who pulled out a gun and forced his subordinates to change military uniforms with him, looking for an alternative guy who was looking for an opportunity to escape after getting out for the dead ghost.

The incident also led to the extremely severe punishment of the anti-United Nations intelligence department and the enemy engineering department of the Political Department, which were responsible for the interrogation of prisoners and the supervision of prisoners of war. Since he was transferred to the work of the Anti-Japanese Federation, Chen Long, the intelligence minister who has always been very much valued by Yang Zhenqi, has also been demoted. The military rank was reduced from the original rank to lieutenant colonel by two ranks.

The Minister of Enemy Works, who was in charge of screening prisoners in the Political Department, was also punished in the same way. The rank was demoted from the deputy division to the rank of full regiment, and the rank was also demoted to lieutenant colonel. Those responsible for the intelligence department and the enemy engineering department, as long as they did not sacrifice, were also punished accordingly, and the military ranks were generally reduced by one or two levels.

Some of those directly responsible have even been transferred out of their original workplaces. The officer of the Enemy Engineering Department of the Political Department, who was evacuated to the captives, was directly dismissed from all posts and demoted from major to second lieutenant. He was transferred from his original post and transferred to the Internal Security Force as a company deputy instructor.

If you don't take into account this officer, you have been awarded the Liberation Medal of the third class for two great merits. In principle, the punishment can be reduced, I'm afraid he won't even be able to keep the rank of second lieutenant. If you don't do it, you may be demoted to a fighter directly, or even expelled from the military. This fine is almost the most serious handling since the reorganization of the Anti-Japanese Federation.

In the words of Yang Zhen, who personally handled this matter, this is not only a punishment, but also a serious warning. Cadres of all departments are warned that they must be meticulous in all their work, meticulous, meticulous, serious, and conscientious, and there must be no more incidents like paralysis and carelessness.

This time the treatment is to make an example of a hundred people, kill a few chickens and show the monkeys. If there is a next time, no matter who is involved, it will be pushed to the end. Those who should be expelled from the military will be expelled from the military. If it should be brought to a military court, it will be sent to a military court. Those who deserve to be sentenced will never be forgiven.

The intelligence department and the enemy engineering department, which are responsible for intelligence support, are the most important guarantee for the victory of every campaign. Every mistake they make means that the fighters in front have to pay more blood and price to make up for it. If the work is not meticulous, it is to compensate with life.

Only when things are just showing signs and dealing with them more seriously can they make an example of each other, so that they can be more meticulous and have a stronger sense of responsibility in their future work. Avoid more people and fan similar mistakes again. If a similar situation arises again, the offense will be increased by one degree.

Those who should be expelled from the military will be expelled from the military. If it should be brought to a military court, it will be sent to a military court. Those who deserve to be sentenced will never be forgiven. This guy escaped the punishment of his own people and eventually transferred to the reserves. However, a large number of people who were implicated in the Anti-Japanese Federation were unlucky and were punished quite severely. Now this Okajima Shigetoshi Osa has made the Intelligence Department and the Enemy Engineering Department of the Anti-Japanese Federation hated it to the extreme.

However, although this guy was reinstated before this battle, he returned to the position of wing captain. But after all, from the 40s to the present, it has been two full years out of the military circles. Coupled with the unique closed-mindedness of the Japanese Army, this old man, who has never been abroad, knows very little about the weapons and equipment of other countries.

Except, of course, the Chinese army, which had been fighting the Japanese army for three full years at that time, and the Soviets, who had always been the imaginary enemy of the Kwantung Army. The armament of other countries, even Germany, an ally of Japan, is not very well understood. In his impression, the German armament should be the same as that of the German armourers of the Chinese army.

The light weapons were all the same Maxim heavy machine guns, Czech light machine guns, plus those long-handled grenades. As for the German army, there is also a machine gun with excellent performance, called the MG three or four general-purpose machine gun. He is not an ordnance expert in the army, so naturally he is even more unclear.

This guy who didn't understand it in the business world and lost a lot of money, otherwise he wouldn't have wanted to return to the army, and he didn't know that the German army still had such a machine gun. Not to mention the fact that the troops of the advance army were also equipped with these trophies of the Soviet army. In the face of the high rate of fire of this machine gun, he was staring dryly but helpless.

Looking at the six machine guns on the opposite side that were constantly harvesting the lives of their subordinates, but they had never seen them before, the rate of fire could be called terrifying. Not to mention being defeated in a short period of time by firing at his own heavy machine guns, he was also killed by two-thirds of the enemy's infantry artillery in ambush in depth, and it was impossible to suppress the enemy's machine guns at all.

And the grenadiers that used to deal with the sharp weapons of the Chinese machine guns are now going up one by one and one is dead. Not to mention that the machine guns that can't destroy the enemy army can't be protected, even if they can't protect themselves. At the same time, Okajima Shigemoshi could only fill one infantry squad after another into the fire net, in order to open the passage for the breakthrough of the first line of Damaigou as soon as possible.

In order to knock out those machine guns as soon as possible, even though he knew that the other party had arranged for sharpshooters to deal with his grenadiers. He could only continue to send the grenadiers to the front one by one. It's just that his efforts still haven't brought any gains.

But his offensive was still futile. The Japanese army was originally extremely sharp, and its tactics were almost invincible on the battlefield of China, but in the face of the enemy's painstakingly set up positions, it was as if they had hit an iron wall. Attacking again and again, almost like a moth to a fire, not only did not achieve any effect, but also made his losses bigger and bigger.

After losing a full third of their troops, this part of the Japanese army under the command of Okajima Shigetoshi paid a heavy price. But the defense of the first line of Damaigou is still immovable. Okajima Shigetoshi Daisa, who really didn't dare to continue to fill it in, could only choose to grab a few nearby hills and wait for it to get dark.

Okajima Shigemoshi Osa knows very well that he was lucky to be able to escape alone last time. But if he loses again this time, he may not have the good luck of last time. So if he still wants to get out, he can't fill in all his forces. If the few remaining soldiers around him are gone, then there really is no hope.

It's just that although he chose to wait for dark before breaking through, his opponent lost patience. Looking at the Japanese army in front of him, which had been weakened to a certain extent, the brigade commander of the advance army in front of him had already made up his mind to start a full-scale attack, striving to end the battle before dark.

But just when he was about to give the order to launch a general attack, Cao Yafan, who rushed over from the front line of Shijiazi, resolutely disagreed with the idea of this brother brigade commander to attack last now. Cao Yafan's attitude was very resolute, insisting on using firepower to cooperate with the multi-channel attack of small troops, taking advantage of the situation that the Japanese troops in front could not get close and could only stick to the three isolated hills, and gradually solved the Japanese troops in front of them.
