Chapter 103 Just in time for the meeting
Gangmura's "inspection" behavior eventually alarmed the inspection department in Yuzhou, but the old Japanese man was cunning and made him run away with Li Daitaozun's strategy.
"It's just a little bit short of us, and we can catch this big fish, but unfortunately we've failed."
Chen Ziliang sat on the sofa in the commander's office and knocked his head in annoyance.
Wu Siren handed Chen Ziliang a cup of tea and comforted him: "There is no need to make such a big deal. Isn't it just a Japanese man? I just ran away and caught him next time. Even I didn't expect that this old Japanese man would dare to go to the danger in person, so what are you concerned about?"
"What a great opportunity! Catching him can relieve a lot of pressure from us."
Chen Ziliang sighed deeply, attaching great importance to Gangmura's ability.
Wu Siren said seriously: "Do you think we'll be better off without Gangmeng Neji? Not necessarily, Japan does not lack capable generals. Maybe Gangmeng Neji will have more powerful people coming."
In fact, although he attached great importance to Kaangmura Nishino Wu Sairen, he was not afraid of it. To discuss who among the entire Japanese army generals worried him the most, it was Ishihara Kaner.
It should be said that Ishihara Kanir is a genius. He not only emphasized the role of aircraft in future wars, but also pointed out the application of nuclear fission energy in the military. Ishihara once said, "Using this energy destructive power may make the war decide the outcome in an instant", and "It is also possible that the sudden appearance of strange light weapons and other things is possible."
Ishihara is completely different from other Japanese Army generals in the emphasis on weapons, which is also one of the reasons why Ishihara was finally rejected by traditional Japanese Army generals.
People say that being a genius is a step ahead, and being a madman is a step ahead. Ishihara Kaner is too much ahead and cannot be used by senior Japanese executives in the end.
Of course, even Ishihara did not expect that Japan would become the first test item for nuclear fission energy weapons, and "the winner was decided in an instant."
For China, Ishihara Kanir is a very terrifying enemy. The reason why he is very terrifying is that Ishihara's idea has a considerable chance of winning. He once said: "If you enter a state of war, it will definitely be a long-term war. If you punish China, the government will collapse within a few months, so it is a huge mistake to only need a short-term decisive battle. Until the Meiji Restoration, China was an advanced country in Asia and was scary. The Japanese believed that China was an old and despised country since the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 and looked down on it." "China has a high degree of civilization since ancient times, and its material life is extremely primitive, and various places have the possibility of high self-sufficiency. These have become extremely favorable conditions for protracted war. If a war begins, it may force China to fight a decisive battle, but whether it will become a protracted war depends mainly on China's intentions."
Ishihara Kanir can be said to be the only strategist among the graduates of the Japanese Army University who have been operating for decades. In this sense, Ishihara is an "outlier" of the Japanese Army. It is precisely because of the alien that people are far away from them. After graduation, they stayed as an instructor and went to Germany to study, forming his "final war theory" in Germany.
Many times, the one who knows you best is often the best enemy. Just as Wu Siren admires and fears Ishihara Kanir, who has been in a semi-unemployed state, is also paying attention to Wu Siren's every move. Through the Ishihara Kanir's special high school class, Ishihara Kanir has checked Wu Siren's past, and while admiring it, he is also a little pessimistic about the future of Japan.
Chen Ziliang was silent for a long time, put down his obsession with Gangmura Yanji, and asked in a deep voice: "Commander, you asked the troops to speed up actual combat training and asked the arsenal to work overtime to produce ammunition. Are you going to take action again?"
Wu Sairen stood up and walked to the balcony, looked at the new buds growing from the trees downstairs in spring, and sighed: "The Japanese will not stop the war. According to insiders, they will use troops to Yuzhang and Lushan after the Spring Festival. Ningji, Gangcun came to Yuzhou this time and probably wanted to see if he could solve us in one go."
"Commander, do you want to take advantage of the fact that Gangmura Niji was restarting his swordsmanship?" Chen Ziliang said in surprise.
Wu Siren smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "We must speak with facts. Not to mention whether our current strength can withstand the counterattack of the Japanese army. I guess if we move here, the senior management of the Chongqing Military Commission will definitely allow us to expand the scale of the war to restrain the main force of the Japanese army. Our tax police regiment's current small body cannot withstand such a big responsibility."
Chen Ziliang said in confusion: "Then what is the purpose of you, Commander, to start preparing for the war now?"
Wu Sairen turned around and took out a world map from the drawer. After expanding it, he pointed to a place called Nomenhan and explained: "According to the information coming from the Edo Inner Line, the Japanese are preparing to try to attack the Red Polar Bear in this place. The time should be in the end of April and early May. We have nearly three months to prepare. At that time, I will take advantage of the fact that Japan is being restrained by the Red Polar Bear to conduct a comprehensive assault on the periphery to relieve some pressure on Shangdu and other places."
When Chen Ziliang heard this, his eyes lit up. He walked to the huge defense map of the enemy and us hanging on the wall on the north side of the headquarters. He began to observe and think, nodded and said, "It is indeed a good opportunity, but we must pay attention to the standard of war, otherwise it will become a red polar bear fire."
Chen Ziliang did not doubt Wu Siren's intelligence was indeed done, nor did he underestimate the ambitions of Japanese people.
"What I worry most about now is the mountain city, so we must fight this assault battle quickly, accurately and ruthlessly. We do not give Japan and mountain city time to react, and we will withdraw when we achieve our goal. In addition, this time I am going to send all the newly recruited soldiers, and only soldiers baptized by the war are qualified soldiers."
Although he could not bear the casualties of his troops, he would train the army step by step. Reality no longer allowed Wu Siren to do this. After the Battle of Nomenhan, Japan will completely give up the "northern advance". At that time, the Pacific War will break out and the Chinese military and civilians will completely usher in the darkest and most difficult period.
Chen Ziliang turned his head and said, "It is a good way to practice with war instead of training. Fighting while the enemy is not prepared can also reduce casualties to a certain extent. Commander, can I use my current and the regiment commanders below to formulate a combat plan?"
"No rush, Gangmura Ningji was able to use commercial channels as a cover this time, which gave me a great wake-up. During this period, we carefully cleaned our house, and at the same time established more systems for the inspection of merchants to avoid such things from happening again."
Wu Siren is not making a big deal. In order not to add variables to the expected raid in early May, he must make it difficult for Japanese spies to move forward in Yuzhou.
"Commander, does the merchant surnamed Li who brought Ningji from Gang Village need severe punishment?" Chen Ziliang asked.
