Chapter 439: Zang Shiyi's sense of smell
This matter, for this emperor, was even greater than the Kwantung Army's forcing him to be crowned the emperor's younger brother just now. After all, although he was reluctant to do so, he was still guaranteed to be safe for the time being. But the current incident made the emperor suddenly panic.
In his eyes, the Kwantung Army, which had always been invincible, was actually beaten to this point, and even the location of the Kwantung Army headquarters was bombed, and it was more of a panic for him. The current Manchurian Empire, although there is almost no place where he can call the shots. But in his eyes, it represents the only chance to revive the ancestral inheritance. It also represents the safety and guarantee of one's own life.
What if the Kwantung Army is defeated? Not to mention that the hope of the revival of the ancestral foundation is completely ruined, I am afraid that my own life will not be guaranteed. Thinking of this, he even felt a burst of creepiness in his heart. But without the approval of the Kwantung Army, he couldn't even get out of this gate, and he was helpless in the face of a critical moment. He was already terrified to the extreme, and the only thing he could pin on now was that when the Kwantung Army retreated, don't forget yourself.
Emperor Kant, who had been lifted up from the carpet by his attendants, also lost interest in venting his anger at this time. Throwing the crime tool in his hand on the ground, he returned to his bedroom with a pale face, and closed the door tightly. Only a few attendants were left standing there, looking at each other at a loss.
What this emperor was thinking about at this time, the Kwantung Army Headquarters naturally had no intention of caring about it. As a military commander-in-chief, the Kwantung Army Command was extremely efficient in the face of danger. On the third day after the bombing of the Mengjiatun front, the first batch of secret departments directly under the Kwantung Army Command had already boarded a train and headed south to Mukden.
And after waiting for a week, those ministers of the puppet Manchurian ministries who had always been only used as tablets, who were still kept in the dark at this time, and who knew nothing about the transfer plan of the Kwantung Army, came to work in the morning, but found that the Japanese deputies around them who held real power had all the Wen Jiàn, and they had long since disappeared. Among the extremely imposing office buildings built by the ministries, only the so-called Manchurian personnel remained.
All the Japanese officials who held real power have disappeared. Even many Japanese officials who came from Taiwan are gone. Along with these Japanese officials, a large quantity of gold, silver, foreign currency, diamonds, and other valuable materials of great value were originally stored in the central bank of the puppet Manchurians.
The Kwantung Army, which was familiar with the process of goose plucking, naturally would not let go of these wealth. The entire central bank of the puppet Manchurians, in addition to all the gold and silver reserves, also transferred large quantities of banknotes to Mukden at the same time. By the time the hectic work had passed, the vault, which was claimed to be the strongest in Asia, was empty, except for a few small denominations, which were too heavy to relocate.
To put it in jest, if the high-ranking Japanese officials of the puppet Manchurian central bank who have migrated to Mukden do not allocate funds from Mukden, the high-ranking officials of the puppet Manchukuo in the entire Xinjing will be hungry. Because at this time, the little money left in the treasury of the Central Bank of Manchurian Manchurian was not enough for even half a month's salary.
Along with these officials and valuables, there were also the headquarters of some enterprises that controlled the economic fate of the puppet Manchukuo, such as the Manchurian Railway. After more than a week of intense busyness, all the Japanese in high positions in the entire Xinjing, except for a small number of soldiers, have all gone south to Mukden.
A week later, in addition to the ministers of the puppet Manchukuo who stayed behind to advance and retreat together with the Kwantung Army, the once luxurious office buildings of the various ministries were already empty. The ministers of the ministries, who were still kept in the dark by the Kwantung Army, were at a loss for a long time in the face of the empty office building. Only then did he remember to question Gu Hai Zhongzhi, deputy director of the General Affairs Department of the State Council, who stayed in Xinjing as a stay-at-home, but received no response.
He had a nose in the dust here in Furumi Tadashi, and he really didn't have the courage to question these puppet Manchurian ministers of the Kwantung Army Headquarters, so he could only enter the palace and want to get some news from the emperor. But he didn't expect that he didn't even enter the gate of the imperial palace, and was blocked by Yasunao Yoshioka, the imperial secretary who had just returned from a meeting at the Kwantung Army headquarters.
After Yoshioka Yasunao read the so-called edict of the emperor's majesty to the puppet Manchurian ministers and announced the order of the Kwantung Army Headquarters to strictly prohibit these people from leaving Shinkyo, he sent them all home. And the face of the emperor was not seen by them at all.
In order to prevent these people who cherished their lives from leaving Xinjing without authorization, the emperor also sent military police stationed at the palace to confiscate all the cars of these people in the name of military needs, and each of them was given a rickshaw temporarily requisitioned from the street. As for what these puppet Manchurian ministers will think in their hearts, that's not something that he, Yasunao Yoshioka, should think about.
Compared with the loss of soul of others, Zang Shiyi, the former chairman of Liaoning Province, who was the chairman of the puppet Manchurian Senate, was silent after returning home, but he looked at the Japanese military and police under martial law everywhere on the street. The puppet Manchurian troops in the new capital have long been transferred out of the city and guarded by the Japanese army. Even Emperor Kant's Praetorian Guard was not spared, and all of them were transferred out of the city.
The original puppet Manchu army in Xinjing, like most of the puppet Manchu army in the Japanese-occupied area at this time, had been disarmed by the Kwantung Army, except for a few troops organized by Koreans and led by Japanese officers. The few units that were considered reliable were converted to unarmed sappers and pulled to the front to be guarded by the Kwantung Army to build fortifications.
The rest were not allowed to come out except for being confined in the barracks. A considerable number of them were transferred to the Rehe area to serve as a guard duty, and to the Hebei and Shandong areas in the Guannai to cooperate with the Japanese army in clearing out the local anti-Japanese forces. In the whole of Manchuria, in fact, all the guards at present are personally held by the Kwantung Army.
The reason why some of the puppet Manchu troops who were considered loyal and reliable were transferred to Guannai was because the Kwantung Army believed that these people had been frightened by fighting against the well-equipped Anti-Japanese Alliance. It is still possible to transfer them to clear out the troops of the 18th Group Army that are poorly equipped and lack ammunition. In addition, the combat effectiveness of the puppet army in North China is not strong, and the people's hearts are extremely unstable compared with the puppet Manchu army.
Although the puppet North China Security Army, which was single-handedly supported by these invading Japanese troops, had a huge establishment, its combat effectiveness was extremely low. It has become an important source of weapons and ammunition for the 18th Group Army in Guannai. Although the Japanese army was very angry about this, they were patient because of the lack of troops and the need for the help of these people.
Although various methods have been adopted to tighten the control of these security forces. Especially in terms of ammunition and equipment, the control is becoming stricter and stricter. But these people were enthusiastic in addition to cooperating with the Japanese sweep. In the real battle, the combat effectiveness is always unstoppable. Often annihilated by regiments and battalions, weapons and ammunition have become an important source of strength for the troops of the 18th Group Army.
The puppet Manchu army did not perform well in last year's battle, and even broke up and surrendered as soon as it came into contact. The Kwantung Army was extremely annoyed by this unit that it had trained by itself. In the case of disbandment and fear that these people who have completed their training will defect to the Anti-United Nations.
The Kwantung Army simply selected some diehards from this puppet Manchu army, which had been frightened by the powerful firepower and combat effectiveness of the Anti-Japanese Union in the northeast battlefield, and transferred them to the Guannai to supplement the North China Public Security Army for use in the North China Battlefield against the 18th Group Army. In order to free up the Japanese troops in North China to deal with other battlefields.
These things, although the Kwantung Army secretly operated. Those old traitors at the top of the puppet Manchu army don't know at all. But as an old man in the Northeast Army, Zang Shiyi, who still has some old subordinates in the puppet Manchu army, is still relatively clear about this. He tasted something unusual about it.
Moreover, Zang Shiyi also knew that now the Kwantung Army had begun to recruit a large number of Koreans from the puppet Manchu Island Province and the Mongols from the Hung Yen provinces, and began to replace the Manchurians, who were already very unreliable in their hearts. These people, especially the Koreans, would be more reliable to the Japanese than the Han Chinese in the puppet Manchu army. After all, Korea has been occupied by the Japanese army for decades, and the so-called naturalization process is quite high.
Looking at the dense Japanese military police on the street and several units composed of Koreans who were transferred to Xinjing by the Kwantung Army, Zang Shiyi said for a long time to a man wearing a puppet Manchurian second lieutenant military uniform next to him, and then said: "At this time, the Kwantung Army will evacuate all the deputy chiefs of various departments who have real power from Xinjing, and I am afraid that there may be a big operation in the near future." You go back and tell your superiors to prepare them early just in case. ”
"A few days ago, there was an explosion on the Mengjiatun line south of Xinjing, and the Japanese said that the ammunition depot was caused by improper operation and fire. However, the Japanese can only deceive those ordinary people, and if they want to deceive me, their measurement is a little worse. ”
"Although I served as chairman of Liaoning Province for two years during my period as a young marshal, I am also a graduate of the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School and served as the lieutenant general chief of staff of the Northeast Security Command. Although I have become a traitor in desperation, my eyes are not blind. I can still hear the difference between an air raid bomb and an ammunition depot explosion. ”
Speaking of this, Zang Shiyi turned his head to look at the second lieutenant and said, "I just want to know now whether those planes were piloted by your own pilots or by Soviet Russian pilots." What did you buy those planes in exchange for the Russians or the Americans? In the middle, there is no betrayal of the rights and interests of the Northeast. ”
"I have been the chairman of Liaoning Province for two years, and although I have not made many achievements, I still know a lot about the situation in the entire Northeast. Although the North Manchurian region is rich in resources, the area is vast. However, the industry is far inferior to that of South Manchuria, which has been painstakingly run by the old marshals, young marshals and the Japanese. ”
"And the population of the North Manchurian region is also far less than that of the South Manchurian region. The terrain is dominated by deep mountains and old forests, undeveloped wastelands and swamps. Relying solely on the population of North Manchuria and the previous industrial base, for at least five to ten years, you will not be able to build an airplane without special circumstances.
"Back then, the conditions of the old man were much better than yours, but relying on the financial resources of the whole northeast and working hard for many years, he barely achieved self-sufficiency in light weapons and ammunition. And with your current conditions, which are far inferior to those of the old commanders, it may be difficult to achieve self-sufficiency in the military industry. ”
