With the explosion of the last armored vehicle, the destruction of this Japanese army transport convoy was officially announced. Under the fierce attack of the Longya Special Forces Brigade, the remaining Japanese army of less than a small group was quickly wiped out.
At the end of the day, when the Japanese reinforcement planes arrived at the scene, all they saw were unburned vehicles and weapons wreckage scattered everywhere.
The Longya Brigade, which won the first battle, continued to attack in the following days, either laying mines, digging traps, or blowing up bridges, causing the Japanese army's transport convoys to complain endlessly, and the Japanese army's transport channels were also damaged.
Almost paralyzed.
The news that transport convoys were frequently attacked and roads were destroyed quickly reached the Kwantung Army headquarters. Umezu Yoshijiro had no choice but to send a large number of escort troops to escort them all the way. But the Ryuga Brigade changed their strategy again. This time they
Instead of attacking on their own, whenever they found a large convoy that they could not eat, they would call in a large number of Stuka bombers for bombing. They and the Kwantung Army played guerrilla warfare in which the enemy advanced and we retreated, and the enemy retreated and we advanced.
, leaving a large number of Japanese troops exhausted and suffering heavy casualties.
In the headquarters of the Kwantung Army, Umezu Yoshijiro and Ishihara Kanji looked at the telegram sent by Isoya Rensuke. The telegram said that the last line of defense on the periphery of Jinzhou was about to fall. If the last line of defense fell, Jinzhou would be completely reduced to a city.
Lonely City. At that time, outside personnel and materials will not be able to be sent to Jinzhou. Jinzhou will fall sooner or later. Please ask the headquarters to provide tactical guidance as soon as possible.
"Ishihara-kun, the Chahar army is so vindictive. We just bribed Manchuria's beards to destroy their transportation lines. They immediately counterattacked, and they did it more thoroughly than us. Now to Jinzhou
The transportation lines have basically been paralyzed." Umezu Yoshijiro sighed and shook his head, his expression declining for a while.
Ishihara Wanji pondered for a moment and said: "Now it seems that we can only step up the construction of Fengtian's defenses, and also mobilize two defense divisions from Heilongjiang to strengthen Fengtian's defense."
"Why are we still mobilizing troops from Heilongjiang?" Umezu Yoshijiro was shocked. "Last month we already mobilized three divisions from Heilongjiang. If we mobilize two more divisions now, our troops in Heilongjiang will basically be exhausted.
If the Chinese Siberian Army or the Vladivostok Expeditionary Army take the opportunity to attack Heilongjiang, the remaining troops left behind will be just a bunch of decorations."
"Why don't I know this?" Ishihara Wan'er sighed, "This may be what the Chinese say about demolishing the east wall to make up for the west wall. Originally our troops were quite sufficient, but under the blindness of that superior soldier,
Under his command, more than half of the 500,000 elite army was lost, and it has not recovered yet. Now our troops are stretched thin, and it is really hard to be tight."
Umezu Yoshijiro was silent for a while, reached out and took off his eyes, took out a soft cloth and wiped the moisture on the lenses, and said slowly: "Originally, two divisions could be mobilized in North Korea, but some time ago
There was a major riot in Korea, and all the empire's troops in Korea were used to suppress the Korean mobs, and now they really can't spare any troops to support Manchuria."
Ishihara Wanji tapped his fingers lightly on the table of his desk, and after thinking for a while he said: "Now our troops around Fengtian have reached 300,000, but this is still not enough, we should increase our troops
.Since the empire’s troops are currently insufficient, we can still recruit troops from Manchukuo to join us.”
"Manchukuo Force" Umezu Yoshijiro asked doubtfully: "Although I have not seen the combat effectiveness of these people with my own eyes, I still doubt the combat effectiveness of the Chinese people."
Ishihara smiled and sneered a few times and asked: "Oh, Umezu-kun expressed doubts about the combat effectiveness of the Chinese people, so where is the army that is attacking Jinzhou now? It can't be the army of the empire, right?"
Umezu Yoshijiro's face suddenly turned red when Ishihara Kanji squeezed him, and he almost couldn't get off the stage. Ishihara Kanji didn't take Umezu Meijiro's feelings to heart. He picked up the hat on the table and stood up.
Walk towards the gate.
Although Umezu Yoshijiro was so squeezed by Ishihara Wanji that he could hardly get off the stage, he still asked curiously, knowing Ishihara Wanji's surname, "Where are you going, Ishihara-kun?"
"Go and visit our Emperor Kant." As Ishihara's smiling voice came, his people had disappeared at the door.
In Changchun, Jilin, there is a place that is quite special. To say it is special means that the owner who lives here is nominally the master of the entire Manchukuo, but in fact he does not even have the right to leave his house. The Japanese regard him as a
He has become a string-pulling puppet, and his every move must be approved and monitored by the Japanese.
He was the last emperor of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Puyi.
Since Puyi ascended the throne for the third time in 1935, he has been imprisoned at home by the Japanese. In name, he has no worries about food and clothing, but in fact he has lost even basic personal freedoms.
Puyi has a surly personality, and is sometimes fierce and sometimes gentle to others. He likes toys, golf, tennis, billiards, bows and arrows, is good at riding horses and bicycles, likes collecting stamps, and can drive cars. But Puyi has actually been played by the Japanese.
In the midst of applause, he acted as a tool for Japan to invade China. He did not even have the power to leave the "Emperor" Palace. Every word, every move, and every move was under the control of the Japanese Lieutenant General Yoshioka Yasuo who monitored him.
Today, the Imperial Palace of the Puppet Manchukuo in Changchun, Jilin welcomed a special guest. He was Ishihara Wan'er who rushed from Fengtian. Puyi received him in the Puppet Manchukuo Palace.
In a living room of the palace, Puyi met with Ishihara Wanji. Ishihara Wanji first apologized hypocritically: "His Majesty Emperor Kant, I have been busy with official duties recently, so I am really ashamed that I have not been able to come to visit you. Today, I
It is truly an honor to finally meet His Majesty."
Puyi, who is only thirty-two years old this year, has been dissatisfied with his inhumane treatment for a long time. Hearing Ishihara Wan'er's words, he showed a sarcastic look, half-smiling but not smiling: "Oh, I saw that I, Lieutenant General Ishihara, really
Do you feel honored?"
"Uh" Ishihara Wan'er felt depressed after hearing this. I just said it casually and you took it seriously. But now that the words were out of my mouth, Ishihara Wan'er had to bite the bullet and replied: "Of course it's true.
, Ishihara has long wanted to come over and listen to His Majesty’s teachings, but unfortunately he has never been able to spare the time. I’m really sorry.”
Puyi has been a puppet for so long, and he is still very familiar with the tricks of the Japanese. One or two of these Japanese are useless things that can't afford to be early. How can they remember themselves if they don't do anything good? Today's one is said to be from Guandong
The Lieutenant General, Chief of Army General Staff, rushed over in a hurry. He must have something to do on his own.
"Oh, I don't know what Ishihara-kun wants me to do this time." Puyi picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly and calmly. These numb Japanese people will use me when they need me.
Hold me up to the sky and throw me aside when you no longer need me. How can there be such a good thing in the world?
Facing Pu Yi's unreasonable attitude, Shi Yuan smiled and was not angry. He just smiled and said: "His Majesty Emperor Kant, the Empire of Japan and I have always been very concerned about your Majesty's experiences, and your Majesty has made great contributions to the establishment of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere.
Your Majesty's efforts and sincerity are also seen by our Imperial Majesty, and I am here this time to help His Majesty better control the Manchu Empire. The Kwantung Army Headquarters decided to help Your Majesty once again form an armed force under His Majesty's personal management.
, in order to assist His Majesty in managing His Majesty's country." When I said this, the expression on Ishihara's smile seemed very sincere, well, at least in Pu Yi's view.
"Oh, really?" Puyi stood up excitedly when he heard this. Ishihara Wan'er's move can be said to have hit Puyi's Achilles' heel. In Puyi's heart, nothing is more important than restoring the country and glory of his ancestors.
He has been working hard for this goal in the past few years in Manchuria, but how could the Japanese allow their puppets to have armed forces, even the only nominal Manchurian First Division and Second Division of 20,000 people?
The armed forces are also in the hands of the Japanese. As the supreme commander-in-chief, Puyi is unable to mobilize any soldiers at all. Now the Japanese suddenly come and tell him that they want to increase his armed forces and leave them to his personal control.
This big pie falling from the sky almost knocked him unconscious.
But at least Puyi was not completely confused by the bait thrown by Ishihara Wanji. He turned around and said to Ishihara Wanji: "Ishihara-kun must have something you haven't said yet. You might as well say it all."
Ishihara smiled slyly and said: "Of course, our Empire of Japan also has a small request, which is to ask Your Majesty to issue an edict allowing the Empire of Japan to recruit Manchus who are over 18 and under 40 years old in Jilin Province.
The men will join the reserve forces of our Japanese Empire and receive training from the Imperial Japanese Army. After repelling the attack of Chahar's army, these troops will naturally be returned to His Majesty as His Majesty's armed force.
"
"What? Recruiting men over the age of eighteen and under forty to join the army?" No matter how confused Puyi was, he knew there was something wrong with this thing. Ishihara Wan'er wanted to conscript all the adult Manchu men and send them to the front line. If there was a war,
If they fail, then these Manchu men will have to
Puyi broke out in cold sweat when he thought of this. There are about one to two million Manchus in Jilin. If this edict is issued, at least three to four hundred thousand men can be recruited. If he issues this edict, he can recruit at least three to four hundred thousand men.
His reputation among his tribe was so bad that it was so bad on the streets.
