Chapter 705: The Secret Battle of Jinling
When Chairman Chiang was still hesitating to wait and see, some people went farther and fell deeper than him, and Tang Qiuli's sudden high-profile visit to Nanjing caused even more turmoil, and Chairman Chiang was very passive because he did not grasp the contents of the secret talks between Hiroichi Tanaka and the senior officials and generals of the state government, and after scolding Dai Li, director of the Military Command Bureau, and Ye Xiufeng, director of the Central Command Bureau, he restricted them from obtaining information immediately.
Dai Li and Ye Xiufeng went out of Chairman Jiang's office that almost made them faint, they both knew that this was a tricky job, it was already more than nine o'clock in the morning, and there were only ten hours before seven o'clock in the evening.
Ye Xiufeng, as Dai Li's former boss, the old man of the Central Union, and one of the founders of the Kuomintang secret service, is much older than Dai Li, self-respecting identity, even if he has ideas, he is ashamed to say it, the two spy leaders are staring at each other, no one wants to bow their heads and beg for help, time passes minute by minute, and both of them are secretly anxious in their hearts.
Or Dai Li's can see it, he knows very well that if this task is not completed, he and Ye Xiufeng don't want to mix anymore, although they usually bite each other's hair, it is just two dogs barking next to Chairman Jiang, competing for favor with each other, the owner is only Chairman Jiang, the purpose is the same, Dai Li opened his mouth, Ye Xiufeng couldn't ask for it, the two spy leaders immediately reached an agreement, set up a joint intelligence group, each dispatched capable agents, and the Military Command Bureau was responsible for the investigation of senior officials and senior generals of the national government. The Central Bureau of Statistics is responsible for the investigation of Koichi Tanaka.
The two of them walked out of the chairman's residence side by side, talking and laughing, and looked dumbfounded by the entourage of the two, this is the number one news, I can't wait to eat each other's bureau chiefs, when will I be like a brother and put on a pair of pants? Just now, this group of entourage, and because of the battle of words, almost fought, seeing this situation, it was very boring, the boss shook hands and made peace, why are we shrimp soldiers and crabs coming, what are we arguing about?
Chairman Jiang watched Dai Li and Ye Xiufeng leave in a hurry, sat down on the chair in a dejected manner, frowned, and had a heavy heart, he did have a plan to solve Tang Qiuli, even if Tang Qiuli did not take the initiative to come to Nanjing this time, if the conditions were met, he would have to find an opportunity to do it, but this time there was no chance, Tang Qiuli had already shouted that the whole country knew that he came to Nanjing, and now he started it, it could only be the result of the loss of the people's hearts and the betrayal of relatives, not to mention that there was a sinister Japan eyeing the tiger, and the attitude was unclear, he sighed, There is a sense of powerlessness.
Tang Qiuli, who had already arrived in Zhengzhou, did not know what happened at Chairman Jiang's residence, he had already given an order to Le Yiqin to transfer a plane to Nanjing, and Chen Feng, the accompanying director of communications, sent a telegram, which was sent by Yan Xishan from Dingbian, "Vice Chairman Tang Xun Jian, I am glad to hear that the troops of the independent division have successfully recovered most of Shanxi, and Taiyuan will be conquered in the near future. Now that the Jin army has finished resting, all the soldiers and soldiers have regained the heart of their hometown, such as the hope of a long drought, please ask Vice Chairman Tang to give an order, then all the soldiers of the Jin army will fight bravely to kill the enemy, in order to repay the high hopes of the three Jin fathers and elders, and look forward to a quick call."
Tang Qiuli finished reading Yan Xishan's telegram, and smiled coldly, this Yan Xishan began to pull the abacus beads again, the idea was good, his troops killed all the Japanese, and he was about to wave troops in the Pingjin area, Shanxi has no danger at all, and it is strange to want to go back to Shanxi to pick up a ready-made cheap, this Yan Xishan, why do you always think that others are fools?
It took a lot of effort and took a great risk to get Shanxi, just with a telegram from you Yan Xishan, give it away, either crazy, or red-eyed, and then it was the bad idea of the high staff, so that Yan Xishan and the remnants of his troops would stay in Dingbian, it was already a great grace, Tang Qiuli let go, the telegram fell to the ground, and with a spring breeze drifting into the distance, he didn't even have the mood to send a telegram back to Yan Xishan.
Chairman Chiang of Nanjing, who was angry and worried, Tang Qiuli of Zhengzhou, was full of thoughts, and they were all in Nanjing, but Emperor Hirohito of Tokyo, Japan, was furious, and Okamura Ninji was killed in battle, and the shock and blow to the Japanese military circles and those crazy people in the island countries were no less than an eight-magnitude earthquake, and the commander of the front army level was killed in battle, which was unique in the history of Japanese warfare, and Okamura Ninji set a precedent for the inglorious record of the Japanese military circles.
Emperor Hirohito's face was pale, his eyes showed a fierce light, and he stared at the ministers viciously, the Minister of War Mitsuichi Yonechi was full of sweat, his face was pale, and his eyes were blank, and the Chief of the General Staff, Prince Zaihito, was expressionless, but a pair of triangular eyes, flashing cold light from time to time, obviously he was thinking about something, and the Minister of War Shigemitsu Aoi was in a different situation.
Straight as a wooden stick, his face swollen as a pig's head, his gold-wire glasses had long since flown far away, he kissed the dirt aggrievedly, he was dressed in a straight general's uniform, his neckline was open, and it was crumpled like a dirty rag, and the ribbons and medals on his body were scattered all over the ground, and on his half-bald head, beads of sweat kept flowing, and it was none other than Emperor Hirohito, who was still panting and angry.
Okamura Ninji died, and his death was not glorious enough, not in the battle with the troops of the devil Tang Qiuli in China, but in the left behind the 80,000 imperial soldiers who were struggling to defend it, obviously on the plane that escaped from the battle, it was a shame and a shame, if it weren't for Michichi Michiichi who thought he was smart and was good at making claims, Taiyuan would have held out until the last moment, and the Kwantung Army troops went south, and it was very likely that the situation would have improved.
Now it's okay, the army general died disgracefully, Taiyuan is in danger, it is a matter of time before it is lost, the southward troops of the Kwantung Army in the Pingjin area are also caught in the encirclement of the independent division troops, thinking of this qiē, Emperor Hirohito can't wait to kick Michichi to death, he is almost crazy, the all-out war against China has been fought for nearly a year, in addition to the loss of troops and generals, it is continuous defeat, a North China, just choke the footsteps of the empire to the south, so if it goes on, when will the Great East Asian Holy War be won?
"Will we not hear such good news until after I have returned to heaven and at the prayers of the children and grandchildren?" This is what Emperor Hirohito said to his ministers after the Minister of War Shigemitsu Aoi was furious, looking at His Majesty the Emperor who was almost in a state of rage, and the ministers who were usually chattering, they all wisely chose to be silent, so as not to touch this moldy head, and the hall was dull and depressed, only the heavy breathing of Emperor Hirohito like a beast.
Looking at the ministers who are usually clever and starling, today they have become stuffy gourds, looking at the nose and nose, doing contemplation, trying to avoid their expectant gaze, Emperor Hirohito was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and he didn't bother to discuss with these guys, and directly issued an edict to implement a general mobilization in the homeland, form a new North China dispatch army, and start preparations for the attack on the Songhu area, once the envoy mission failed, immediately launched an attack on the above two directions at the same time, and the Japanese war plane was rumbling again.
Nanjing, an ordinary lane on the east side of Zhongshan Road, an inconspicuous house, the black lacquer door is closed, the huge copper knocker, a thin layer of ash falls, it seems that no one has lived for a long time, on the white walls and black tiles, a handful of weeds and dark green moss, mottled and mixed, revealing a desolate and depressed atmosphere, several stone steps at the door, because of the age, have lost their initial smoothness, become pitted, uneven, and are covered by the mud The original light cyan color.
Hiroichi Tanaka woke up slowly, his eyes were blindfolded by the black cloth, he couldn't see the qi qi in front of him, his hands tied behind his back, under his struggle, the hot pain, he could only judge by his feelings, there were many people in the room, but the footsteps were extremely slight, and the cool and damp ground made him can't help but shiver.
For Tanaka Hongichi, this qiē is all a dream, he and Duan Jingquan, who have met many times, have been talking for several hours in the room of a high-end hotel, from the initial unhappy parting, to gradually giving in, the common interests of the two sides are getting closer and closer, because they are both facing a common enemy, Tang Qiuli.
Since the last time he broke up with Duan Jingquan on the yacht of Mochou Lake, he immediately came to the secret intelligence station of the base camp intelligence bureau in Nanjing to report the situation of the talks to the base camp.
The Japanese made a condition that after the empire obtained North China, it would no longer have any claims on the territory of other parts of China, and the demand to the Nationalist Government was that no form of support should be provided to the Japanese Empire when it was fully engaged in dealing with the forces of the devil Tang Qiuli, and that North China, like Manchukuo, would become one of the pro-Japanese independent states, and the government of the Republic of China would recognize the independence and sovereignty of the Republic of China.
After reading this initial text, Duan Jingquan's face changed at that time, not because of how patriotic he was, but because of such conditions, even if he himself, it was difficult to accept, not to mention, the Japanese were beaten by Tang Qiuli in North China, and they were also defeated on the battlefield in Songhu.
After arguing a few times, Hiroshi Tanaka was ruthless and completely revised the conditions, not only did he not put forward territorial claims to North China, but even added the return of Taiwan to China, such a condition, even Duan Jingquan did not expect that Taiwan that had been lost for decades could be taken back, and this was a big deal, even if it was worth eradicating ten more people like Tang Qiuli, Chairman Jiang was so satisfied that he could die of happiness when he saw such conditions.
This time, there was no disagreement, and Hiroichi Tanaka and Duan Jingquan raised their glasses in celebration, both excited to achieve their goals, and as soon as a sip of red wine entered their stomachs, the door of the room was gently knocked.
