The Chairman’s plan to drive away wolves and swallow tigers

After the report was completed, the bald boss waved his hand and signaled Director Dai to leave.

When leaving, Director Dai's calm expression was filled with deep worry.

Having been his subordinate for so long, Director Dai is already very familiar with his boss, but to this day, he still cannot perfectly guess what his boss is thinking.

To be precise, we can only guess part of it.

He can guess, and even be sure, what his boss will do next.

Actions against the group in North China.

Although in the mind of his bald boss, the priority of annihilating the North China gang may be higher than that of the Japanese, the current domestic situation still sees the Japanese as the number one threat.

This threat is too deadly to be delayed or compromised.

No matter how unhappy the boss is, he must deal with the Japanese first. At most, he must use some of his strength to weaken the North China group.

But after the Battle of Yangcun, the situation changed slightly.

The group of people in North China are becoming stronger rapidly, and they have caused great losses to the little devils.

The North China region is an area occupied by the Japanese. In the Japanese plan, it is very important to serve as a rear military station to provide supplies and logistical support to the army.

This provides the possibility of driving away wolves and devouring tigers,

However, the threat of the Japs is deadly and imminent. Unless the Japs draw the main force from the front line, the boss can still only maintain the current situation and deploy the main force on the front line to confront the Japs.

However, my boss will definitely dispatch a small part of the main force to the North China region and what they call the rear border area.

The first is to tighten the blockade and restrictions on that group of people.

Secondly, it is also a signal to the Japanese, a signal for the Japanese and the people in North China to fight each other.

This has no impact on Director Dai.

What troubles him is that the boss has not expressed his position yet whether he or the Central Government should let him deal with and investigate the North China group.

still,

Go together?

There is another question, how will the Japanese deal with that group of people in North China?

···

"This is no longer a security issue."

"It is an imperial-occupied area, and North China is being taken away by the enemy."

In the conference room of the Prime Minister's Office, Mitsumasa Yoneuchi looked around at the imperial ministers present and said in a loud and stern voice:

"We must immediately concentrate our forces and eliminate those guerrillas."

"Then give up those areas you don't need."

An important minister suddenly stood up and said in an equally loud voice:

"Those mountainous areas where guerrillas are entrenched, occupying these places has no meaning for the empire."

"From the current point of view, it is simply not feasible to use North China as a military base."

"Even if there were no guerrillas, it would be impossible for those people from the Republic of China to integrate into the imperial army and become soldiers. Forced recruitment would only reduce the combat effectiveness of the Locust Army, and even drag down the Locust Army."

"Judging from the battles in the past six months, the Imperial Alliance Army that the empire has spent manpower and material resources on is useless. Instead, it is a waste of the empire's power. It has even become a source of weapons, ammunition and supplies for the guerrillas."

"As for the resources in North China, the cost of development is too high, and there is no petroleum and rubber that the empire urgently needs, and food production is also seriously insufficient."

"The same is true for the entire Republic of China."

"We only need to maintain the current control over transportation lines and important cities, and use North China as a dumping ground for imperial goods. This will not only save troops and devote them to more important battlefields, but also alleviate the financial difficulties of the empire."

Mitsumasa Mineuchi glanced at this important minister and narrowed his eyes.

This person is a die-hard southerner.

Although that group of mysterious forces continuously attacked senior imperial officers, and even after the King Kong incident, Prince Zain no longer promoted the southward movement, causing the southward faction to fall apart.

However, with the support of Prince Fushimi Miyahiro Kyou, the Nanshang Sect still occupied half of the country.

The country needs oil, rubber, and food, and only Southeast Asia can provide these for the empire.

Although it can currently be purchased from the United States, the amount exported by the United States is only just enough for the empire to consume, and cannot be stored for backup. The United States' intention to indirectly control the empire's strategy by using resources is very obvious.

A powerful country cannot be called a powerful country at all if it cannot control important resources.

but···

"In this case, it won't be long before the empire will completely lose North China and even the entire Republic of China."

Mitsumasa Yoneuchi sneered:

"At present, the guerrillas in North China have the power to defeat imperial division-level troops head-on, and have obtained very advanced light weapons. The range of their 60-caliber artillery is twice that of the same level in the world."

"Moreover, having obtained sufficient supplies, they are organizing millions of people to build roads, dig farmland, and build water conservancy facilities to consolidate their territory and rapidly expand their army."

"It won't be long before their strength will grow explosively."

"If we don't eliminate them while they are weak, I am afraid that even North China will be lost in the future, and even threaten the empire's interests in China."

"Then let them come out!"

The important minister who spoke looked disdainful:

"They were able to defeat the Hattori Brigade because the mountainous terrain was complex, which restricted the use of the empire's heavy equipment, and because they were backed by a supply depot, it was easy to supply."

"As long as they leave the mountainous area, the empire can easily defeat them."

Although the Hundred Regiment War caused the Japanese to lose a lot of territory, especially in Shanxi, almost only the territory around the railway was left. In the Battle of Yangcun, the Hattori Brigade suffered heavy losses, but from the perspective of the Japanese base camp, it was just the failure of two small-scale battles.

A small setback.

The Eighth Route Army, which is gradually growing in strength, is nothing more than a minor trouble.

"Based on the current situation, it is basically certain that the mysterious force that continuously attacked the Imperial officers and the King Kong is a force supporting the guerrillas."

Mitsumasa Yoneuchi did not waste any time on this aspect. He also believed that the Eighth Route Army was just a small trouble and not worthy of too much attention. Instead, he quickly moved the topic to the next one.

"Are we just going to let the other side attack imperial officers and military facilities?"

As soon as the topic came up, the expressions of all the important Japanese ministers present changed.

Compared with Tubal Road, this mysterious force that has repeatedly attacked senior military officers and seems to have a deep grasp of the empire's high-level intelligence is the real trouble for the empire.

This group of people can even attack the King Kong and completely rush the goods.

This was much greater damage to the Locust Army than the so-called Hundred Regiments War and the Battle of Yangcun.

It's a big trouble.

It’s a huge problem that I don’t even know how to solve.

"idiot··"

At this point in the discussion, the meeting began to get out of control and eventually turned into a war of words. Neither the southerners nor the conservatives could convince the other.

In the end, the meeting was hasty and fruitless.

"Why··"

In the unpleasant atmosphere, a group of important Japanese officials left the scene one after another, leaving only the big-headed Mitsumasa Yoneuchi sighing silently.

In the areas occupied by the Republic of China, the strength of the guerrillas increased day by day, resulting in the almost complete failure of the military depot plan in North China. The mysterious forces attacked the imperial officers many times, and succeeded this time. The southern offensive was repeatedly blocked, and the mountain city refused to surrender and still resisted tenaciously.

Almost none of the imperial military strategies were successful.

In China, almost half of the voices are calling for going south and starting a war with Britain and the United States. Even Locust has some intentions. If it were not for the King Kong incident, the successive attacks on military officers on the battlefields of the Republic of China, and the recent relaxation of business restrictions in the United States, I am afraid that all plans would have been lost.

It has begun to enter the substantive stage.

He knew that the Navy had already formulated a combat plan for Pearl Harbor, carried out targeted torpedo-throwing training by carrier-based aircraft, and even held preliminary training exercises on secret islands.

The failure of the military strategy and the division of the base camp gave Mitsumasa Yoneuchi a headache.

"prime minister."

At this moment, a secretary ran in and reported to Minai Guangzhenghui:

"Republic of China intelligence, Guo Preserved mobilized about 30,000 troops from the front line to North China and the western mountainous area..."

"Um?"

Mitsumasa Yoneuchi suddenly narrowed his eyes:

"Is this to induce the empire to dispatch frontline troops to eliminate Tubal Road?"

He sensed the bald man's thoughts immediately.

"snort."
