Although there are not many anti-union that enter the city, the anti-union that entered Beiping from Xizhimen has entered the core of Beiping City. You must know that Shichahai is near Di'anmen, the north gate of the imperial city, and hitting here means that it is close to the imperial city of Beiping City, and the imperial city also means that it is the core area of Beiping.

It is now close to Zhongnanhai, the headquarters of the North China Front. The anti-union assault force seized Xizhimen and entered the city, which made Okamura Ningji realize that even if the 59th Division in Tongzhou and the 110th Division on the line from Mentougou to Changxindian were still resisting, the current Beiping City was actually unable to hold on.

Okamura Ninji was well aware that the forces outside the city had been cut off from the straight line with Beiping Castle. The defensive strength of less than 2,000 people is almost like a basin of water sprinkled with a little pepper noodles to the huge Beiping City. Not to mention defending the entire Beiping City, it is to defend more than ten gates in several inner and outer cities, so the troops are not enough.

The reason why the enemy army has not yet attacked the city is not because of how much face he has as the commander of the North China Front, but because he has borrowed the light of a large number of historical sites inside and outside the entire Beiping City. Although the enemy troops in front of them were Tubalu digging into the ravine, they obviously also knew the significance of Beiping City in Chinese history.

If there were no cultural relics and monuments, I am afraid that there would be such a small number of troops. The enemy army has already attacked the city directly, and there is no need to have any taboos. With the existing strength of the North China Front in Beiping City, I am afraid that it will not take a day for the enemy to break through the entire line inside and outside Beiping City.

Okamura Ningji, who is currently trapped in a lonely city, is now an abnormal headache. Guard, basically no longer possible. The remnants of the periphery have been separated from Beiping City. With this little force in the city, there is no miracle at all if you want to hold Beiping City.

The remnants of the 110th Division and the 59th Division outside the city tried to withdraw to the city many times, but they were unsuccessful. Even Tongzhou was only a dozen kilometers away from Beiping, and the 59th Division concentrated a wing, but it just couldn't get over. At the head of Chaoyang Gate in Beiping City, you can hear the dense gunfire of Tongzhou on the front line.

But he didn't have the troops to respond, and the 59th Division also stared dryly, and he couldn't rely on it even if he tried his best. The 110th Division was compressed and struggling on the front line of Mentougou, and instead of being able to get closer to Beiping City, it continued to send telegrams to the front army headquarters asking for help.

As for the counterattack by the Tianjin side, and several attempts to reopen the Pingjin railway line, they all ended in failure. The reinforcements from Tianjin were blocked by the northeastern communist army moving south on the line from Wuqing to Anci. Moreover, Tianjin's repeated efforts, instead of reopening the Pingjin railway line, instead of suppressing the surrounding area of Tianjin, its own enemy army was desperately suppressed.

Even because the troops were too concentrated on the line from Wuqing to Anci, they were taken advantage of by an enemy army to fight from Yutian to the line of Ninghe and Lutai, and cut off the Beining Railway, cutting off the North China Front Army and the Kwantung Army on the land route. If it weren't for the naval fleet blockading Beitang with artillery fire, I am afraid that Tanggu Port would have been threatened.

The battle has reached this point, and if Tianjin does not receive a large number of reinforcements in the short term, there is no hope of turning the tables at all. The defenders of Tianjin were unable to get closer, which was equivalent to cutting off this part of the reinforcements closest to Beiping and reinforcing all hope of reinforcing the city of Beiping. Even if the base camp is now fully reinforcing Tianjin, can the current Beiping City hold out until the Tianjin defenders arrive?

evacuated, and all traffic on the ground had been cut off. Forcibly breaking through the encirclement, more than 2,000 troops escorting the entire North China Front Headquarters, it is simply impossible to stand out. And now there is not only a front army headquarters in Beiping City, but also tens of thousands of imperial expatriates, among which the elderly, weak, women and children account for the majority.

The current Okamura Ningji is sitting in a troubled city, and he wants to fight without troops, but it is too late to retreat. A large number of anti-United Nations troops have appeared on the line from Tongzhou to Fengtai, and the passage to the first encirclement has been closed. Fengtai Station is now in the midst of fierce fighting, and there is no possibility of passing.

Just when Okamura Ninji was at a loss in the face of the Beiping war, he suddenly received the following report, and the Anti-Japanese Union and the 18th Group Army sent people to enter Beiping City through the Xizhimen that they had controlled, and asked for direct negotiations with the North China Front. After receiving this report, I understood the opponent's true intentions Okamura Ninji, but he was a little hesitant.

But considering the safety of tens of thousands of expatriates in Beiping City, as well as the current situation in Beiping City, Okamura Ninji was very reluctant. However, Major General Nakanishi Arisadada, deputy chief of staff of the Front Army, was also dispatched to negotiate with the people sent by the Anti-Japanese Union at Xizhimen Station. However, Okamura Ninji repeatedly explained to Major General Nakanishi Arisada that he must have a tough attitude when facing enemy representatives.

If the enemy asked him to surrender, he would not talk about it directly, and the Great Japanese Empire only had generals who died in battle, and there were no generals who surrendered without a fight. And if they are not afraid of the destruction of Beiping City, the thousand-year-old capital, he does not mind personally commanding the defenders in Beiping City and fighting the enemy in Beiping City.

It's a pity that the deputy director of the Political Department of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region sent by the Anti-Japanese Federation did not mention unconditional surrender at all. Just told Major General Nakanishi Arisada that if General Okamura Ninji chose to complete and did not do any damage, Beiping City would be handed over to the Anti-Japanese Federation. The Anti-Japanese Federation will open the railway line from Fengtai to Tianjin, so that the North China Front Army Headquarters and all the expatriates in the city can safely withdraw to Tianjin.

The Anti-Japanese Union and the 18th Army outside the city pledged not to carry out any air and ground attacks when they withdrew. In addition, the Anti-Japanese Union side will hand over more than a dozen trains detained at Fengtai Station to the Japanese side to facilitate their evacuation, and they can agree that the Japanese army will carry away all the weapons and equipment.

However, the Japanese army must ensure that it will not do any damage in Beiping City, and at the same time hand over all the personnel of the puppet military and political system in Beiping City to the Anti-Japanese Federation, and ensure that there will be no damage to the existing industries and Shijingshan Iron and Steel Works in Beiping City. Especially for any monuments, do not do any damage.

All looted Chinese cultural relics, all captured Chinese soldiers and political prisoners, and a large number of foreign nationals detained after the Pearl Harbor attack must all be handed over to the Anti-Japanese Union and the 18th Group Army. In exchange, if Okamura Ninji agreed to abandon Beiping, the Anti-Japanese Federation could let the first line of Kaimentougou and let the remaining remnants of the 110th Division withdraw to Fengtai and withdraw to Tianjin together with the Japanese troops in the city.

The deputy director of the Political Department of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, who was in charge of the negotiations, directly told Major General Nakanishi Yuzhen that the Anti-Japanese Federation and the 18th Group Army could give Okamura Ningji 24 hours for him to consider. If Okamura did not give any reply after 24 hours, then the Anti-Japanese Union and the 18th Army would regard the North China Front as rejecting the proposal and would directly launch a siege operation.

In the face of the relatively favorable conditions provided by the Anti-Japanese Federation, there was a fierce quarrel within the North China Front Army Command over whether to accept it or not. Lieutenant General Oshirodo Sanji, who was the chief of staff, believed that at present, the enemy army had completed the siege of Beiping City, and the defensive forces in the city were extremely limited, in fact, Beiping City could no longer be defended.

In order to protect the tens of thousands of expatriates in Beiping City, as well as to preserve some of the troops, Tianjin, a strategic bridgehead for the defense of the empire to control North China, can now accept the conditions of the Anti-Japanese Union and the North China Communist Army. However, in terms of the content of the negotiations, it is necessary to add that the rest of the 59th Division in Tongzhou must also be evacuated.

The North China Front could agree to the enemy's conditions, but the enemy also had to promise to give way to the Ping-Tianjin Railway and ensure that all the Japanese in Beiping would withdraw safely to Tianjin. In particular, it is guaranteed that no damage will be carried out along the Pingjin Railway. The Japanese army also had to carry all the weapons in Beiping's stockpile.

In order to evacuate all the expatriates and the remnants of the Beiping battlefield, the two sides had to cease fighting for three days not only around Beiping City, but also on the entire Pingjin front, so as to ensure the smooth withdrawal of the troops of the North China Front in Beiping and the overseas Chinese to Tianjin. Although certain conditions were attached, Oshiroto Sanji still accepted the conditions proposed by the enemy.

And his deputy, Major General Nari Nishi, also has similar opinions with him. Compared with Lieutenant General Sanji Ojoto, who is still somewhat tactful, Major General Nakanishi Yuzhen's attitude is more straightforward. He believes that the current defenders in the entire Beiping City are no longer able to hold the entire Beiping City at all, and even there is little hope of holding a certain part of the city.

The most important thing is that even if the enemy army is in the short term, because of the rat trap, temporarily abandon the siege. However, the existing grain and coal stocks in Beiping City are only enough for the expatriates and garrisons in the city, and they can maintain less than half a month's rations. The loss of the first line of Mentougou, the coal in Mentougou has been unable to be transported to Beiping City.

If there are no reinforcements within half a month, all the expatriates in the entire city of Beiping will be in a situation of hunger and cold. And judging from the current state of the war, it is simply impossible to count on the arrival of reinforcements in a short period of time. Not to mention half a month, there is not much hope that reinforcements will arrive within a month.

Since the enemy proposed to negotiate at this time, then the North China Front should agree to make an agreement with the enemy. In order to ensure the safety of the lives of tens of thousands of expatriates in Beiping, as well as to maintain the strength of the empire's future counterattack on Beiping. Or at least increase the strength of the defense of Tianjin before reinforcements arrive.

As the chief of staff of Ojodo Sanji said, stick to Tianjin, the bridgehead for the counterattack against Pingjin, and concentrate forces to reopen the connection between the North China Front Army and the Kwantung Army. If the remaining forces on the Beiping battlefield can really be withdrawn to Tianjin and reorganized, they will be put into the battlefield.

It is far better and more meaningful than sitting in the lonely city of Beiping and even being eaten by others in the current situation where there is no food and grass inside and no reinforcements outside. After all, holding the line of Tianjin and Tanggu can ensure a foothold for the empire in northern North China.

It can also maintain one of the most important strategic points and support points for the empire to recapture northern and northern China in the near future. For the current North China Front, it is much more meaningful to ensure the safety of Tianjin on the entire Pingjin battlefield than to be trapped in an isolated city here.

Compared with the two chief and deputy chiefs of staff who are inclined to accept the conditions of the resistance to the United Nations, in order to preserve their strength and expatriate. The various commanders and section chiefs of the North China Front, as well as a group of young operational staff officers, were blown up. It was thought that abandoning Beiping without a fight would really damage the prestige of the imperial army.

As an imperial soldier, he should be proud of dying on the battlefield, instead of choosing to steal his life and abandon Beiping, where the headquarters of the Front Army is located. Although the city's defenses were small, the North China Front could now arm the diaspora into battle. The tens of thousands of expatriates in Beiping City can muster at least 10,000 troops.

With a large number of weapons and ammunition stockpiled in various munitions warehouses in the city, it is no problem at all to arm 10,000 expatriates. The 10,000 expatriates were put into the defense of Beiping City, plus a large number of sturdy buildings in the city. Although the enemy army has now taken control of Xizhimen, it can resist in the city for at least half a year.

If the food is not enough, you can collect it from the people in the city, as long as you can hold the city of Beiping, even if you starve to death all the people in the city. Even so, he couldn't defend Beiping City, and he could drag a part of the enemy's elite to be buried before he died. Honorably dying for His Majesty the Emperor is a great honor for any soldier of the Empire.
