Tokyo Base Camp, Japan: "Who is it on Bagaya Road who leaked our information?" Prince Kanin Miya Zaihito was furious in the headquarters of the base camp.
"The outline for China was only formulated on July 9th, but it was broadcast by China Radio on the 10th. Who the hell is the bastard who leaked the secrets of the empire?"
A group of senior military officers stood in front of Prince Hanwon Gong Jae-in and did not even dare to show their dignity. This leak was very serious. This guideline for the war against China when exercising military power in North China has just been formulated by the Army Staff Headquarters.
It has not been promulgated yet. The senior generals of the Japanese army in North China who are the parties involved have not received it yet, but the enemy knows it first. What does this mean? What does it mean that the headquarters of the Empire's Supreme Command is simply a little secret in front of the enemy?
There is no transparent person.
This was the most serious leak of secrets from the base camp since the Tanaka Memorial Incident. The base camp was furious, and Emperor Hirohito also ordered Prince Kaninnomiya Zaihito to conduct a strict and thorough investigation.
For a time, the entire Japanese army base camp was thrown into chaos.
In fact, this matter is the masterpiece of our Commander-in-Chief Su. He who comes from later generations will naturally not forget this Japanese guide book for fighting against China.
After the July 7th Incident, Su Tong published this outline. Firstly, it was to disgust the Japanese, and secondly, it was also to wake up the people of the country and tell them about the ambitions of the Japanese. You see, even the right
The Guidance Outline for the War in China has been released. Do you think war is still far away from us?
Emperor Hirohito of the Imperial Palace in Tokyo was wearing baggy trousers, a tie at an angle, and the buttons of his suit jacket were all wrong. When Prince Kanin Palace Zaihito came in, he was sitting on the tatami with his back hunched over, staring blankly.
The scenery outside the window looks like a trance.
Prince Xianyuan Palace Zairen bowed respectfully, then knelt down respectfully and said nothing.
After a long time, Emperor Hirohito asked calmly: "Your Excellency, how long have you been the Chief of Staff of the Army?"
"In reply to Your Majesty, by His Majesty's great kindness, I have been the Army Chief of Staff for eighteen years." Prince Kanin Gongzaihito heard the Emperor's question and quickly fell to the ground to answer.
"Yes, it has been eighteen years." Emperor Hirohito murmured: "Time flies so fast. Over the past eighteen years, the army of the empire has become stronger and stronger under your careful training. I am very pleased. This and
Your efforts in carrying people are inseparable.”
Prince Zai Ren lay on the ground and choked with sobs: "It's all due to the trust of His Majesty the Emperor. It's just that the old minister was incompetent and failed to live up to His Majesty's high expectations."
Emperor Hirohito sighed and looked at his uncle who had served him diligently all his life. He couldn't bear to blame him. He slowly recited a poem:
"We are all brothers within the four seas, so why are we ruthless when the wind and waves are violent?"
"Zhao Ren, do you understand what I mean?" Emperor Hirohito asked softly.
When Prince Zai Ren heard the emperor suddenly reciting a poem by his grandfather, Emperor Meiji, he felt puzzled. Did His Majesty have any thoughts about the situation in China? He did not dare to make random guesses, and whispered to the ground:
"I don't know, I hope your majesty will make it clear."
"Every time I read this poem, I feel how kind and generous Emperor Meiji is and what a peace-loving elder he is."
Emperor Hirohito added faintly: "China is too big. We can't swallow such a large prey in one breath. We can only nibble it slowly and eat it in small pieces. I believe that sooner or later we will eat this prey."
It’s over, it’s just that you were too impatient, Ishihara smiled again.”
After listening to Emperor Hirohito's words, Prince Zaihi did not answer anything but remained silent.
Now this Japanese chariot is carrying all the Japanese citizens. Its engine has been started and it is rushing forward. But what is bad is that the brakes of this chariot have been removed by their own people, so
The chariot could only rush forward at an increasingly faster speed. No one could stop it, not even Emperor Hirohito himself.
It will smash into pieces all the people and things that stand in front of it, until it will smash itself into pieces.
It has to be said that Emperor Hirohito still had some foresight on this point, but at that time, Japan's political arena was dominated by fanatical militarists, and there was a trend of subordinates overcoming superiors in the army. This made Japan's supreme ruler
Emperor Hirohito was also scratching his head. Although in his heart he wanted to annex China, he was more willing to boil the frog in warm water than to decide the outcome in a battle as he is now.
"Alas" a long sigh came from Emperor Hirohito's mouth. He slowly closed his eyes and leaned on the chair.
Upon seeing this, Prince Zain stood up slowly, bowed deeply and exited the palace.
The headquarters of the 37th Chahar Army "reported that the aviation troops came to report that they continued to harass the retreating troops of the 27th Division and the 20th Reading Brigade of the Japanese Army along the way. Now the unit has suffered heavy casualties, and the remaining number is no longer as high as
The first half of the retreat." A staff officer read the telegram with a happy face.
"Jianming, it seems that the Japanese army has suffered a lot of casualties. Even if they escape to Chengde now, they won't be able to do anything." Jiang Baili nodded with satisfaction.
"Of course, now that the remaining two regiments of the 27th Division have been disabled by our Commander Gao Da, we must seize the time to speed up preparations for the attack on Chengde." Su Tong nodded with satisfaction.
"But Jianming, are you really ignoring the 29th Army?" Jiang Baili's words made Su Tong silent.
After a long time, Su Tong smiled bitterly and said: "They don't welcome us, what can I do?"
Jiang Baili didn't answer, but looked at him silently with eyes that seemed to see through the world's human emotions.
"Well, I can't screw you. You are the chief of staff, how can you succeed?" Su Tong shook his head helplessly.
After saying that, he reached out and grabbed the phone and said: "Switchboard? I'm Su Tong. I'll answer the call for Commander Peng Zeyuan of the 10th Division."
After finishing the phone call, Su Tong muttered: "Maybe I am the only fool in the world who can do such a thankless thing."
The 29th Army Headquarters: As the Second Division of the Japanese Army is storming Beiping City, the casualties of the troops are increasing, and the battle situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for the 29th Army. Army Commander Song Zheyuan is stamping his feet back and forth anxiously in the headquarters.
The "Report" correspondent's voice came in.
"Speak" Song Zheyuan said impatiently.
"Chahar calls"
"Well, Chahar called Su Tong, what does he want to do?" General Counselor Xiao Zhenying said disdainfully, "Is this the same old story again? You want to send two divisions here to help us defend? No way." Xiao Zhenying looked very excited.
.
Deputy Commander Qin Dechun and Chief of Staff Zhang Weifan in the headquarters also frowned. If so, Chahar's attempt to take advantage of the situation would be too obvious.
"Sir, that's not the case. Chahar is informing us that they will have a batch of weapons and ammunition arriving at Peking Airport by plane in a while, so that we can be ready to receive it. There will also be a battalion of infantry with them. If we agree
, they asked the brothers from this battalion to stay and fight the Japanese with us."
"Well, there are weapons and ammunition. What the hell is Chahar doing with a battalion of infantry?" Xiao Zhenying asked doubtfully. No matter how much he hated Chahar, he would never think that Chahar could do anything to Peiping with this mere infantry battalion.
threaten.
"Su Tong is afraid that we will misunderstand that they have intentions for Peking, so he only sent one battalion here. Have we all misunderstood him?" Song Zheyuan was silent for a while and said: "Call Chahar back and tell him that we are the 29th Army
I am extremely grateful to them. We are ashamed to receive these weapons and equipment. As for the brothers from that battalion who want to stay with us to fight against the Japs, we welcome them."
At about nine o'clock in the morning, the citizens of Peiping were surprised to find a dark aircraft group coming from the north. They flew to Nanyuan Airport in Fengtai, the southern suburb of Peiping, and the aircraft group soon flew over Nanyuan Airport.
, and landed quickly.
Some good people at the airport in Shanghai even counted the number of planes, and found that there were nearly a hundred planes. But these planes were all ugly, with sharp edges and corners on the fuselage, and thick landing gear pillars protruding from the fuselage. It was strange.
The model is very strange, and even stranger is that it actually has three engines. This is the Type 52 transport plane nicknamed Aunt Junker sent by Chahar to transport arms.
The door of the plane opened as soon as it landed, and groups of fully armed soldiers ran down from it. They quickly formed a neat queue under the command of the officer.
At this time, Chief of Staff Zhang Weifan, who had been waiting at the airport for a long time, led his people to greet him. He slowly looked at the team in front of him and then asked: "I am Zhang Weifan, Chief of Staff of the 29th Army, by order of the military commander.
To welcome you, I don’t know how many weapons and ammunition you have brought this time.”
At this time, the leading officer saluted Zhang Weifan and replied loudly: "The humble commander of the 1st Battalion of the 43rd Regiment of the 10th Infantry Division of the 37th Chahar Army, Ren Ran, was ordered to come and report. This is the list of this batch of supplies.
,please take a look at it”
After speaking, Ren Ran handed Zhang Weifan a list.
"Three thousand Mauser 98k rifles, one hundred Maxim heavy machine guns, three hundred Czech light machine guns, two million rounds of 7.92mm bullets. Twelve 70mm infantry guns, with one hundred rounds of shells each.
"The more Zhang Weifan looked at it, the more surprised he became. This Su Tong is too generous. Could it be that the military commander and the general counselor really misunderstood them?
"Sir, the supplies are all on the plane. Please send someone to take them down quickly. By the way, please send someone to guide us. We are going to the front line." Ren Ran said solemnly.
"You are in such a hurry that you don't have to rest all night before going to the front line." Seeing the major in front of him so eager to go to the front line, Zhang Weifan became curious. Chahar's army is really strange. He said here: "This
Is this Chahar’s team? The people are quite energetic, but the colors of their clothes are a bit weird, they are all colorful.”
"Mr. Li, don't you know? I heard that this is called camouflage uniform. That was said by my seventh aunt's nephew who works in Zhangjiakou. He said that this clothes is very strong and can be worn for more than ten years.
Not bad." Kanye, a joking person next to him, boasted.
"Oh, the clothes of love are durable if they are dyed green. Why don't you come out in green clothes, Xiao Liuzi?" Mr. Li was unconvinced.
"Hey, I said, old man, why are you always making excuses? Did I say that green is the most durable?"
Ignoring these two boastful Kanye, he was currently in the marching queue. Adjutant Zhang who was leading the way curiously asked Ren Ran: "Battal Commander Ren, how can you, with only a few hundred men, fight against the little Japs? You're not a brother. I'm discouraged."
If there are hundreds of you, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for half a day before we have to withdraw."
Ren Ran smiled slightly and said nothing, but the battalion deputy Liu Jun on the side spoke: "We would like to send more people here, and you, Commander Song, would be happy to do so."
Adjutant Zhang wiped his nose and smiled awkwardly. He smiled brightly and said: "Actually, you can't blame us for being careless. We are also afraid that you will falsely attack Guo."
Ren Ran smiled slightly and echoed the words of the commander before leaving: Sometimes explanations are unnecessary. Enemies don't believe your explanations, but friends don't need your explanations.
At this time, the Japanese army had surrounded Beiping City from the east, west, and north. The roar of gunfire could be heard faintly in the city of Beiping. "Quick, speed up." Ren Ran couldn't help but feel anxious when he heard the sound of gunfire.
.
Okamura Neiji commanded the Second Division to attack the Marco Polo Bridge with increasing intensity. Under the cover of sixteen 70-caliber field artillery, the Japanese army continued to attack the Marco Polo Bridge. Under the fierce attack of the Japanese army's superior firepower and troop strength,
Next, Zhao Dengyu's 109th Brigade suffered heavy casualties and the situation was very critical.
"Report, Adjutant Zhang has brought reinforcements." At this time, a correspondent entered the headquarters and reported to Brigadier Zhao Dengyu, who was anxious about the battle situation.
"Reinforcements" Zhao Dengyu's eyes suddenly lit up, please come quickly
