Chapter 117: Attack the General Staff Headquarters

Taji Chaoichi set off with his own wing.

The Guards Division was a first-class division with a wing of 3,800 people, three infantry brigades and an artillery squadron at the same time. There is a joke that the Guards Division has the best food, the best clothing, the best weapons and equipment, but the worst combat effectiveness.

The Guards Division is the direct guard of His Majesty the Emperor, and the equipment and treatment are naturally the best, and there are very few battles, and the combat effectiveness is naturally lower than that of the field troops, but it is also an army at a low level.

In the staff headquarters, Umezu Mijiro already knew what happened at the cabinet meeting just now, Sugiyama was arrested red-handed, and it seems that Koiso Kuniaki really did it. He still can't figure out why Koiso Kuniaki dared to attack the Imperial War Department directly, is he really crazy.

It is not uncommon for Umezu Mijiro to compete for power and power, and Japanese politics is a puddle of troubled waters, and every official who struggles to come to power, who does not step on other people's corpses to move forward, but there is always a bottom line and rules. But he has never seen a politician like Koiso Kuniaki who does not play cards according to common sense, doesn't he know the strength of the Imperial Army, impossible, speaking of which Koiso Kuniaki is also from the Army, he himself is still a general of the Empire, how can he not know the weight of the Army in the Empire today, but he did it, and it was so direct, there was no room for any shot, not paying attention to a little artistry, it can be described simply and rudely.

In fact, Muyang just grabbed the card of Nakamura Masao, and then used the contradiction between the navy and the army, as well as the current imperial family's fear of the army, to plot and involve them all. Isolate the Japanese Army.

The so-called indiscriminate punching to kill the master, Mu Yang doesn't care about the bottom line of the political struggle. He's just going to create chaos, and the more chaotic the better. The more chaotic Japan is, the better it will be for China, so Muyang directly stabbed the stick into the dye vat and stirred it indiscriminately.

Umezu Mijiro's door was directly pushed open, interrupting Umezu Mijiro's thinking, he looked up and saw that it was his secretary, and immediately said angrily: "Bastard, don't you know to knock on the door, so unruly." ”

The secretary said anxiously: "Your Excellency, the minister." The General Staff Headquarters is surrounded, you see what we can do. ”

Umezu Mijiro was shocked when he heard this, "It was surrounded, who surrounded the staff headquarters." ”

"It's the Guards Division."

At this moment, I heard someone outside shouting through a loudspeaker: "Listen to the people inside, order you to surrender immediately, and if you resist, kill them directly." ”

Umezu Mijiro slapped the table and stood up, scolding: "Bastard." What exactly does the Guards Division want to do, does Koiso Kuniaki still want to bloodied the staff headquarters. ”

Then he said to the secretary: "Inform the Guards Squadron that the soldiers of the Guards Division will never be allowed to enter the General Staff Headquarters, and I will contact the higher ranks now." Let them have to resist, by the way, how many people from the Guards Division came? ”

"I saw that it was Taro Chao Odaisa leading the team. They should have come to a wing. The secretary said.

Umezu Mijiro only felt that he was a bastard. One of their own squadrons was guarding here, and they actually sent a wing to attack. How can this be kept. You must know that a wing has 3,800 people, while a squadron has only about 250 people, which is too different.

"The people inside listened, ordered you to surrender immediately, if you resisted, kill directly, you only have 5 minutes, as soon as the time comes, attack immediately."

The loudspeaker outside shouted again, which made Umezu Mijiro angry, as a general of the empire, he had personally led hundreds of thousands of troops, how could he have been treated like this.

"Go outside and tell the guard squadron that you must stop them, and you must not let them in, all right, go and inform them." Umezu Mijiro said.

The secretary looked at Umezu Mijiro, but saw that Umezu Mijiro had already picked up the phone, so he didn't dare to say anything more, so he had to go out to inform.

"Hey, hey, pick me up from the War Department." ”

Zizizi, "Hey, hey, give me the official residence of His Excellency Hideki Tojo." ”

Zizizi, "Hey, Hey, Hey......"

Umezu Mijiro shook the phone vigorously, but only one phone rang again and again, but no one answered.

Only then did he realize that the telephone line at the staff headquarters had been cut off, and now he could not reach anyone. Reluctantly, he put down the phone and sat on the chair a little weakly.

Tian Lu Chaoyi looked at his watch, 5 minutes had already arrived, but the staff headquarters did not send anyone to reply, and the guards at the door did set up machine guns, which made Tian Lu Chaoyi a little annoyed.

"The first brigade began to enter the staff headquarters to arrest people, and if anyone blocked it, it would attack directly." Tian Lu shouted at a pair of men.

The soldiers of the 1st Brigade began to rush into the General Staff Headquarters with guns, but when they approached the entrance of the General Staff Headquarters, they ushered in a torrential rain composed of machine gun bullets, and suddenly the soldiers of the 1st Brigade rushed to the front were killed and wounded.

"Bastard, dare to resist, attack, start attacking."

The soldiers of the 1st Brigade began to shoot inside, and the machine gunners set up their machine guns, and a real battle began, and for a time the guns rang out throughout Tokyo.

Although the third wing of the Tian Lu Chaoyi had a large number of people, because the offensive area was too narrow, there was only one position at the entrance of the staff headquarters, so the two sides started a shootout at the door, and two machine guns were erected at a small door, and the first brigade could not take the staff headquarters guarded by the guard squadron for a while.

The two charges passed, and the first brigade actually killed more than 40 people, and the attack was blocked for a while.

"Stupid, set up a mortar and knock out those two machine-gun positions for me." The captain of the first brigade shouted to his subordinates.

Two grenadier squads came out, one squad had three grenadiers, and six bullets were fired at once, "boom, boom, boom ......", not to mention, the Japanese soldiers were quite accurate in using grenadiers, and after one round, the two machine gun positions were all cut off, and the mouth of the staff headquarters was suppressed for a while.

It was so ferocious that he dared to use a grenadier in the city, and the guard squadron of the staff headquarters was shocked for a while.

"Keep attacking, rush in."

The captain of the 1st Brigade roared, and the Japanese soldiers began to rush forward again with their guns in hand. Although there were still guns fired inside, there was no suppression of machine guns, and they were quickly rushed to the courtyard by the first brigade.

"Attack, attack, fight and kill when encountered." Seeing that he had rushed in, the captain shouted at the soldiers behind him, and for a time nearly a thousand Japanese soldiers rushed into the staff headquarters.

Umezu Yoshijiro stood at the window on the fourth floor and looked down, and when he saw the soldiers of his empire rushing into the staff headquarters so bravely, a sense of powerlessness hit his heart, and he knew that his good days were over. (To be continued......)
