Chapter seven hundred and fiftieth eight defense
"Is the news reliable?! You have to know that this matter is of great importance! Once an intelligence error occurs, it will be a fatal blow to the reputation of the empire, and it will also be a fatal blow to the relationship between the empire and Germany."
Shanghai, in the office of the Japan Special News Agency.
Kagesaki Sato said in a deep voice to a tall and thin man in front of him: "Hojo San, you should know the seriousness of the matter!"
"Of course I know. I will never joke about this kind of thing. Our lurking personnel in Wuhan risked their lives to send us information: Chiang Kai-shek left his office secretly, and at the same time, he hid in the church of the pastors under the escort of the Military Control Commission..."
The person who spoke was Major Yayoi Hojo from the Intelligence Department. If it were other news, Kagesa would definitely believe in Yayoi Hojo's words. But the news given by Yayoi Hojo is really too involved. If you are not careful, the consequences will be extremely serious.
"Hojo, I will report this matter to the military headquarters first. The specific handling method will be decided by the military headquarters after replying!" After pondering for a while, Hayaosaki Kaedaki then faced Hojo.
Hojo also knew that this matter had exceeded the scope of Kagesaki's decision, so he nodded in understanding and sat down in the office. Kagesaki personally used the radio station and transmitted the news to Tokyo by secret telegram.
There were bursts of cheers in Tianjin, and the National Defense Forces army was already moving towards Tianjin! The few Japanese troops in the city of Peking have long been cleared, and all the facilities of the former Northeast Army here have been re-activated.
A large number of Defense Force Air Force fighter jets have been transferred to this point, and the abandoned barracks that were once again cleaned up to welcome the entry of the Defense Force.
The trains departed from Fengtian transported the National Defense Forces troops over, and some of the military trains were covered with rain cloth, which made people look down on what they were transporting.
The entire three northeastern provinces carried out the first total mobilization, and more than 100,000 former national defense army veterans were re-entered and rushed to the battlefield with newly formed troops. Some of the students of the National Defense University returned to the team urgently, while the other part began recruiting and putting new recruits into training.
The tasks issued by the arsenals in various places began to aggravate, especially artillery, guns and ammunition. All the ammunition originally reserved by the National Wehrmacht was issued, and all the troops gathered towards the Pingjin area.
Outside Tianjin City, General Soichi Deanuchi, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese North China Front Army, looked extremely ugly.
In early 1938, after realizing that the war did not seem so easy, the military headquarters divided the Japanese army in China into three parts. One part was the North China Front Army with Soichi Deanuchi as the commander-in-chief.
The other part is the South China Front Army headed by Lieutenant General Ando Rikito. At the same time, the Central China Front Army headed by General Matsui Ishione is being formed.
"Damn it, can't this damn tiger stay in Fengtian honestly?! What did he do when he ran out?! Aren't he worried about a problem in North Korea? His nest was scattered by the empire?!"
Teraunuchi walked around his command center in a state of anxiety, keeping mumbling: "How come those fools in North Korea can't even be held back?! So many troops. Are they all going to North Korea for fun?!"
It’s no wonder that Shiuchi Shi was so anxious, he was under too much pressure. Even if the entire National Defense Forces were eliminated, there were almost one million people rushing out!
What a terrifying number this is?! If it were the Central Army of the National Government, Sora Sedori would never blink and even regard these troops as his military achievements.
But this is the National Defense Force! It has defeated the Japanese army several times. Even the first time since the First World War, the biggest loss was in their hands. Although Teruchi Shou now has the first, 12th and 43rd third troops in his hands, a total of more than 150,000 people.
At the same time, the North China Front Army also has tanks with few equipment in the Japanese Army! Even equipped with tanks of a whole division. This is rare among Japanese troops.
The 3rd Division of the Tanks is under the 12th Army. The division commander Lieutenant General Nishihara Ichiseki.
In the second Korean battle with the National Defense Force, the Japanese base camp discovered the fragility of its own tanks, and also discovered the National Defense Force's use of tanks and the good swear words of tanks on the battlefield.
Therefore, after the war, the military headquarters ordered the formation of the mecha army, with Tokuma Yoshida as the commander, with the first, second and third divisions of the chariots and the chariot teaching brigade. Among them, the first, second divisions of the chariots and the chariot teaching brigade were all affiliated with the Korean garrison combat sequence in order to prevent the National Defense Force from crossing the 38th parallel. Only the chariots and the chariot teaching brigade were assigned to the Chinese dispatched troops.
The 3rd Japanese Chariot Division was organized in Tokyo on December 14, 1936. Its predecessor was the Japanese cavalry group stationed in Mongolia. The commander of the 3rd Japanese Chariot Division was under the jurisdiction of Lieutenant General Nishihara Ichisto:
The Fifth Brigade of Tanks (8th and 12th Wings) The Sixth Brigade of Tanks (13th and 17th Wings) The 3rd Mobile Infantry Regiment.
The division's direct rapid-fire artillery team search team, the 3rd Mobile Artillery Regiment, the air defense team, the engineering team, the chariot and the baggage team.
According to the Japanese chariot division, the total number of the division is about 13,820. Each chariot corps of the Japanese chariot corps participated in the battle this time is composed of a Type 95 light chariot corps, three 97-reformed chariot corps, one 97-reformed chariot corps, and a 97-reformed chariot corps and a preparation corps; each chariot corps has 73 chariot corps of various types and 27 other vehicles.
In order to prevent the National Defense Forces, the Japanese Army has invested a lot! North Korea threatened the Japanese mainland, so it arranged three tank divisions, including the teaching division.
In Tianjin, in order to better defend the attack of the National Defense Force, they sent the only armored division here. This approach is very thoughtful, in order to block the footsteps of the National Defense Force.
The Central China Front Army was able to calmly annihilate Chiang Zhongzheng and the main force of the Central Army, and then the entire army went north to fight the National Defense Army. But now the National Defense Army clearly shows that the entire army is rushing towards the North China Front Army.
How could a unit with less than 200,000 people with less than 200,000 people with a force that could withstand nearly one million National Defense Forces?! At first, Teraunuchi felt his brain hurt, and asked Chief of Staff Major General Naosaburo Okabe to issue the departments to prepare for defense fortifications. After Teraunuchi sent a telegram asking for support from the base camp.
"If there are no reinforcements, the North China Front Army will be severely damaged and cannot support the comprehensive strategy of the empire. The North Korean garrison already has three armored divisions, but for some reason it has no effect. As a result, our North China Front Army is forced to face the millions of main forces of the National Defense Force..."
The heart-wrenching Shouichi Seuchi was extremely angry at the inaction of the North Korean garrison in the telegram, and almost cursed. He then made a direct request to support his own armored division, and at least one hundred thousand troops would be required to ensure that he could fully defend the place.
Prince Xianyuangu received the telegram from Sakaichi Tezuka and cursed directly! Where can I get you an armored division? Besides, the troops mobilized are now training and cannot go to the battlefield.
The requirements in the temple are really difficult for the Xianyuan Palace, but I understand it when I think that the temple is facing nearly one million National Defense Forces in the temple.
After pondering for a while, Xianyuan Guard sighed helplessly and picked up the phone and shook it. He said to the operator: "Help me pick up His Highness Fumimi Miyaki Hiroko..."
After a while, the phone was connected. Xianyuan Guardi was not polite and said directly to Fushimi Miyaki Hirokyo, "I am Xianyuan Guardi."
"Oh! It's Your Highness, is there anything wrong?!" Fushimi Miyaki Hiroko was very surprised by the phone call from the Xianyuan Palace, but immediately came back to his senses.
"Now that tiger has been out of the cage early. The North China Front Army called for fear that it would not be able to withstand it." Xianyuan Palace said the situation and sighed: "I still hope your navy can help. After all, if that tiger is out, it will not be a good thing for the empire."
When Fushimi Miyaki Hirokyo heard this, he was silent. He now mainly represented the interests of the navy. To be honest, in his opinion, this was a mess that the army himself had caused.
North Korea has deployed so many troops, but it can't stand this tiger. What else can you do?! Besides, the Navy just lost such a big face for the battle of the Yellow Sea.
Your army is gloating, and I didn't even mention this matter, which is very conscientious. But after all, King Fushimi Miyagi Hakuyo is also a member of the royal family, and what he considers more about the interests of the royal family.
If there is any mistake in China's war, it will not be a good thing for the entire empire and even the royal family.
"I understand, I will discuss with the Navy Department. Try to allocate our main warships to support it." After saying that, King Fushimimiya Miyagi paused and said with a smile: "Then, about our navy's funds..."
"I will sign the consent form." Xianyuangong said with a wry smile. This is an exchange of interests. There is no way, who told the Army that it cannot solve the problem itself?! If it can solve the problem, why do you need to find the Navy?
Last time, I wanted to pick out a piece of the military expenses to develop a new fighter, but this touched the interests of the navy. They had made trouble more than once about this matter, and King Fushimi Miyaki Hiroki was originally silent.
But now he gave the opportunity to his hands. If he didn't hit him hard, that would be a fool!
After putting down the phone, Xianyuangong cursed a few words but heard "Bang~" and the office door was opened. Xianyuangong was startled on the spot. Seeing that it was his adjutant, Xianyuangong's face suddenly turned red!
"Your Highness, something big happened. According to our report in Shanghai, Chiang Chiang from Wuhan is preparing to escape on the British cruise ship!" Without waiting for the Xianyuan Palace to curse, the deputy said hurriedly.
"Nani?! Is the news accurate?! Who came from it?!" Xianyuangong didn't bother to scold the adjutant, and snatched the telegram and said anxiously.
"The telegram comes from Colonel Hashi Akira, who just received the translated..." The adjutant said with a pale face.
Chapter completed!
