Tu Feiyuan came to Peking and did not go directly to the North China Front Command, but temporarily stayed in an ordinary hotel. They did not make any statement, so even the hotel did not know the identity of the guests.

Shouichi Deanuchi received the call, changed into casual clothes, came to this restaurant, and quietly met with Toohiyuan.

A Japanese general who followed Toezumi to see Soichi Desouchi and said respectfully: "Hello, sir."

When Tu Feiyuan saw the visitor, she said happily: "Why are you here?"

Teruchi Suichi once served as the director of the Tactics Teaching and Research Department at Tokyo Dikun University. The Japanese general who came from Toehime was once his student. Because of his excellent performance, he was selected by Teruchi Suichi when he graduated and stayed in the Teaching and Research Department as his assistant.

After the greetings, Doi Horizo ​​presented the official written order issued by the base camp and handed it over to Soichi Desouchi.

The base camp decided to remove the position of commander of the North China Front Army of Soichi Deanuchi and serve as president of the Tokyo National University. His position was replaced by his students who followed Toeshiyuan.

Teraunuchi had already developed a desire to retreat about the decay of the North China war. The president of Tokyo Dikong University was his dream position. You should know that the most respected profession in Japan is teachers, and even ordinary professors are very respected, let alone the president of Tokyo Dikong University.

Once, a prime minister wanted to book a hotel, but the president of the University of Tokyo had already checked in the hotel in advance, and the hotel politely declined the prime minister. This is enough to show the status of the university president in Japan.

Teraunuchi trusted and appreciated his student and former assistant very much, and he had no objection to his position as commander of the North China Front Army.

Shi Nai Nai was relieved, and he told his students all his experiences in the North China Front Army without reservation.

Teruchi Nakachi believes that Gao Jiu is difficult to deal with, and can be said to be a cancer in the security of the North China Front Army. If you want to maintain the security of the North China Front Army, you must get rid of Gao Jiu.

If you can't do this, you will settle for the second best and reach a tacit understanding with Gao Jiu.

As the highest commander of the North China Front Army, Teraunuchi should not say the words that followed, because he was the one he trusted, so he expressed his heartfelt words.

Doi Horizon also agreed with Soichi Desunuchi. He has been dealing with Gao Jiu for a long time, and the only feeling is that he is full of helplessness.

The students of Soichi Desouchi were not unfamiliar with Gao Jiu. He was originally the commander of the Central China Front Army. It was because of Gao Jiu's trouble that the public security in the central China area deteriorated, so he was removed from his post and was idle in Tokyo.

When he thought of dealing with Gao Jiu, he felt a headache. However, he was one of the most capable generals among the Japanese army, with his inherent pride and confidence. The reason why he could not deal with Gao Jiu in the Central China Front Army was because the generals under the Central China Front Army were not in the same agreement with him.

This time he served as the commander of the North China Front Army, and was determined to start from rectifying the North China Front Army, strive to be united and then concentrate on dealing with Gao Jiu.

He begged Toichi Tetanuchi to stay in the North China Front Army for a month to help him sort out various relationships within the North China Front Army.

Teraunuchi was willing to help him do this, but he also told his students frankly that some generals of the North China Front Army were also thorns, such as the commander of the Seventh Army, and he himself could do nothing to do with them.

He believed that Tu Feiyuan had a higher status and was a young general, and he gave him face. It would be better for Tu Feiyuan to stay in Peking to help his students to straighten out the relationships within the Front Army.

Tu Feiyuan said that he would stay in Peking for some time this time to help the new commander gain a foothold in the North China Front Army.

The news that the commander of the North China Front Army was replaced was limited to a few senior generals within the North China Front Army.

The new commander intends to reveal his identity after finding out the situation of the entire North China Front Army. He hopes that he can beat Gao Jiu in surprise.

On that day, Yoshiji Hamada, the head of the Special High School of the North China Front Army, received a call from the front commander Soichi Teraunuchi, who asked him to go to his official residence.

Although Hamada Yoshihiro can now be called the confidant of Soichi Desunouchi, this is the first time that the commander summoned him at his official residence.

He was a little excited and confused, not knowing what the commander was so mysterious and was going to do.

After coming to the official residence of Soichi Tetsuichi Tetsuichi, he not only met Soichi Tetsuichi, but also met the Army Minister Doi Hoshiyuan.

After the introduction of Soichi Tezuka, he realized that the commander of the North China Front Army had been replaced. He had met the person who had changed and knew that he was one of the best powerful characters among the Japanese army.

The reason why the new commander summoned Hinata Yoshihiro Hamada was because according to the introduction of Soichi Teraunuchi and the recommendation of Hinata, the new commander knew that Hamada Yoshihiro was the person who dealt with Takaku the most and also the person who knew Takaku the best. He needed to learn more about Takaku from Hinata Yoshihiro Hamada.

Hamada Yoshihiro started his business by targeting Gao Jiu, but the one he was most reluctant to mention now was Gao Jiu. With his experience, he knew that the trouble came to him again.

The new official took office and made three fuses. I wonder how the new commander would deal with Gao Jiu? But he was sure that he was busy with work on dealing with Gao Jiu again.

In the past, when Hamada Yoshihiro talked about Gao Jiu, he felt excited because others didn't understand Gao Jiu and needed his opinion. Therefore, he felt his importance, and he was indeed promoted step by step.

His ideas are completely different now. Now his biggest wish is to transfer back to China and never deal with Gao Jiu again. His mood is understandable. Facing an inevitable failure, who is willing to work hard in vain in exchange for the result of a slap in the face?

Facing the question from the new commander, Yoshiji Hamada said: "Commander, if you know Gao Jiu, that's the past. Since I was transferred to Peking, Gao Jiu has been in the Golden Triangle for most of the time, and I rarely deal with him anymore, so I can't talk about knowing him."

Tuohiyuan had a separate discussion with Hamada Yoshihide. At that time, Hamada Yoshihide told him a lot of things about Gao Jiu, which deepened his understanding of Gao Jiu.

Hearing Hamada Yoshihiro's refusal this aroused his dissatisfaction, he said with some displeasure: "Handa, you have been dealing with Gao Jiu for the longest time. Just tell your new commander what you knew about Gao Jiu before. How to judge is his business."

Teraunuchi knew Hinata Yoshihiko very well. He knew that Hamada Yoshihiko had similar ideas to him, and he had already had the idea of ​​leaving the North China Front Army.

He said: "Hamada, I have received the transfer order and will be transferred back to Tokyo to serve as the president of Diguo University. I hope you can cooperate with the new commander seriously. As long as you can help him solve the cancer of Gao Jiu, I will transfer you back to Diguo University and serve as the deputy minister of the school affairs department."

Yoshihiko Hamada was originally worried that if he targeted Gao Jiu, Gao Jiu would come to him and he would be in trouble. He heard that he could be transferred back to Tokyo, which was exactly in line with his wish.

So he decided to take a risk and assist the new commander in formulating a plan to deal with Gao Jiu. Although he knew that the possibility of failure was still very high, after completing this matter, he could be transferred back to Tokyo. As for the result, it had nothing to do with him.

His attitude began to become positive, and he told the new commander about everything he had dealt with Gao Jiu to listen to, and took the initiative to add his own analysis and judgment.

It took me two days to listen to the report from Hamada Yoshihiro Hamada, deepened my understanding of Gao Jiu, and felt unprecedented pressure. Gao Jiu was a terrible enemy and was almost invincible.

However, they believed that if Gao Jiu was not defeated, the interests of the Japanese army in China would not be guaranteed, so these four guys had to come up with a way to deal with Gao Jiu.

Because the Japanese army took strict confidentiality measures, this time the Japanese commander of the North China Army was replaced, Gao Jiu did not get any news in advance.

Gao Jiu was in Taohua Mountain, accompanied by Long Guobi, and drank, chatted with his brothers all day long. His life was very leisurely. What he didn't know was that during this period, the Japanese army had already started a series of actions.

That morning, Gao Jiu received a notice from the underground party and the Military Control Commission, saying that the Japanese Central China Front Army had received the 136th and 137th Divisions of the Japanese army transferred from Japan and transferred the 3rd Division of the 11th Army from the Yangtze River to Shanghai, with the target of Southeast Asia.

Not long after, news came from the Military Control Commission again that Fang Yunwu, the head of the Military Control Commission Shanghai Station, had confirmed that the Japanese 3rd Division had already traveled to Southeast Asia by sea at Shanghai Port, and the specific destination was unknown.

The Japanese Third Division has extremely strong combat effectiveness. Joining any place in Southeast Asia is a great threat to the Japanese armed forces.

Gao Jiu first notified the Golden Triangle of this situation, allowing Tianchuan to strengthen his defense against the Golden Triangle, and also informed the news to the anti-Japanese armed forces of various countries in Southeast Asia, reminding them that the Japanese army might launch a new attack.

After the fleet transporting the Japanese 3rd Division went to sea, it did go south at the beginning, but after they were far away from the coastline, they turned around on the sea and headed north.

Not long after, the 142nd Division of the Japanese army dispatched an infantry brigade to head south along the Jinpu Railway and fought fiercely with the troops of the underground party Lunan Military Region.

The heads of the underground party, Gao Hong, Chen Zhiyong and others, informed Gao Jiu of this situation. They said that they are currently fully capable of repelling the Japanese attack. The purpose of notifying Gao Jiu was to make Gao Jiu prepare in advance. If the Japanese army sends additional reinforcements, please ask Gao Jiu to help.

The underground party Lunan Military Region originally had two independent brigades, but now it has joined the Fourth Division of the Public Security Army of Wei Liming. In addition to the military's security regiment, the regular troops alone have reached more than 30,000.

They were backed by the Southwest Shandong Arsenal, well-equipped and ammunition were sufficient, so they were no problem dealing with a brigade of the Japanese army.

Therefore, Gao Jiu did not pay much attention to this matter. He just sent a telegram to the Jinan Station of the Military Control Commission to let them pay close attention to the movements of the Japanese army. Once Japanese reinforcements were dispatched, inform him in time.

In order to cooperate with the war in the southern Shandong military region, the underground party launched an attack on the Japanese army in northeastern Shandong.

The Japanese army urgently mobilized a brigade of the 142nd Division from Jinan, took the recruited vehicles and headed north overnight to northeastern Shandong for reinforcements.

Both the Military Control Commission and the underground party informed Gao Jiu of this information, and Gao Jiu also thought it was very common and did not take it to heart.

Early that morning, Huang Shuigen, the commander of the Independent Brigade of the Southwest Shandong Military Sub-district, was awakened by the sound of cannons coming from afar.

The density of artillery is very high, and it has exceeded the scale of artillery equipped by a brigade of the Japanese army.

He realized that the situation had changed and immediately ordered the scouts to figure out the situation.

Not long after, news came from the front that there was a sudden appearance of another brigade of the 142nd Division of the Japanese Army on the flank of the Independent Brigade.

The Independent Brigade was caught off guard, and the position of the Second Regiment had been broken through by the Japanese army.

Huang Shuigen was shocked and immediately ordered the reserve team to go to reinforce the Second Regiment, and then reported the information to Commander Gao Hong.

It turned out that the Japanese 142nd Division and another brigade did not go to northeast Shandong.

They used the night to turn a head in front, and suddenly came to Tai'an front line along a country road, caught the Independence Brigade off guard.

At this time, the independent brigade of the Southeast Shandong Military Sub-district, also known as the Independent 2nd Lunan New District, was in fierce fighting with an infantry corps of the 142nd Japanese Division.

They were unable to split up to reinforce Huang Shuigen's independent brigade. The Japanese offensive was fierce and the situation was very critical.

Gao Hong ordered two garrison regiments stationed in Tai'an City to reinforce Huang Shuigen's independent brigade, and then sent a telegram to Wei Liming, ordering his independent division to send troops to rush for assistance.

After Wei Liming's troops joined the Southwest Shandong Military Region, they were organized into the Independent Division of the South Shandong Military Region. Wei Liming served as the first deputy commander of the South Shandong Military Region and also served as the commander of the Independent Division. The main force is currently stationed on the front line of Zaozhuang.

After receiving Gao Hong's telegram, Wei Liming immediately ordered the Second Regiment of the Independent Division and the guard battalion of the division headquarters to go to Tai'an City.

Shortly after the Second Regiment of the Independent Division and other troops set off, a large number of Japanese troops suddenly appeared in the southeast of Zaozhuang.

These Japanese troops were the troops of the Japanese Third Division tuned out from the Central China Front Army. They secretly headed north, passed by Lyg, walked at night and hid in the morning, and suddenly launched an attack on Zaozhuang.

Wei Liming's troops could not resist the Japanese attack at all. They were forced to give up Zaozhuang and retreat towards Tai'an City.
