Okamura Neiji glanced at the fat little Miyamoto Kazuo, and slowly shook his head: "Miyamoto-kun, you are still too young, and you still haven't seen through some things. Why do you think I launched this surprise attack?
What is the purpose?"
Miyamoto Kazuo couldn't help but said doubtfully: "Your Majesty Commander, isn't this attack aimed at taking back all Fujian from the hands of the Chinese so that we can have an explanation for the base camp?"
"Hmph!" Neji Okamura snorted and said: "You are right or wrong. It would be good to take back all Fujian and attack Guangdong, but I wouldn't be surprised if we fail to achieve our goal. China's seventh
Although I have never dealt with the Army Group, I am familiar with their leader, Su Rui. I had dealt with him two years ago during the Battle of Wuhan. At that time, he was just a little boy.
The division commander has already caused a lot of trouble to our imperial army. Now that he is the commander of a group army, it will naturally be more difficult to deal with. I don’t expect to defeat him in one go. This is unrealistic.
.”
"Then what is your purpose?" Kazuo Miyamoto looked at Neji Okamura with some confusion. Launching a large-scale attack is not a simple matter, and the materials to be consumed during the period are even more astronomical, like this
In this surprise attack, Okamura Neiji mobilized one-third of the material reserves and troops stored by the Central China Front. If no results were achieved, it would be difficult to explain to the base camp.
"I'm just knocking the mountain to shake the tiger." A dignified look appeared on the corner of Okamura's mouth, "Isn't there an old Chinese saying, there are three things to do when a new official takes office. When I come to Central China this time, if I estimate well, my future opponents will
This is the Seventh China Army. Everything I am doing now is just to buy time. As long as I can buy two to three months, our reinforcements will arrive."
"Reinforcements? Do we still have reinforcements?" Miyamoto Kazuo couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Your Excellency, Commander, our Central China Front Army is already very strong, with a full force of 500,000 troops. We should not be afraid of China's Seventh Army."
Have you formed an army?"
"Stupid!" Okamura Neiji became angry and immediately reprimanded: "When I was the commander of the 11th Army, I had a lot of troops, with a total of 300,000 troops at hand, but what happened? Not nothing.
Is there a way to conquer Changsha? Although the current Central China Front Army has 200,000 more troops than the 11th Army, the real main combat force is only about 250,000. If you want to wipe out the 7th Army in one fell swoop, how can you conquer it?
It is unrealistic. A few days ago, as the commander of the Central China Front, I have officially requested the base camp to mobilize the Kwantung Army to move south. As long as I can defeat the great enemy Suri, I will be happy to pay no matter what the cost."
"Nani, is it so serious?"
Miyamoto Kazuo was shocked. What kind of army is the Kwantung Army? It is known as the flower of the Imperial Army. The Manchuria they defend can be said to be the lifeline of Japan. Therefore, no matter how tense the war situation is, no one in the Kwantung Army has ever thought about it.
The Kwantung Army must be mobilized to enter the customs because there is an unwritten consensus among the Japanese high-level officials that Manchuria is the lifeline of Japan. You can do without it anywhere in China, but Manchuria must not be lost. Therefore, I applied to the base camp to mobilize the Kwantung Army to enter the customs.
But it took a lot of courage, and what surprised Miyamoto even more was that the base camp actually agreed. This was what surprised Miyamoto the most.
Miyamoto Kazuo said in surprise: "Your Majesty Commander, but...but can the base camp agree to your proposal?"
"They have to agree even if they don't agree." Okamura Neiji said resolutely: "Now the situation in Central China has reached a very dangerous point. If the base camp does not agree to my conditions, the situation in Central China will deteriorate within one to two years.
There is a risk of total collapse.”
"What, it can't be so serious?" Miyamoto Kazuo was shocked, "Since you have come to Central China, can't you even deal with the situation in Central China?"
Okamura Neiji shook his head and said: "Yes, but you must give me enough troops and supplies, otherwise, let alone me, it will be useless even if Nogi Nogi Nogi-dono comes."
Miyamoto fell silent, and after a while he asked tentatively: "Sir, what are the troops you asked the Kwantung Army to transfer?"
Okamura answered word for word: "The second, third, twenty-fourth and the first tank division!"
"hiss……"
Miyamoto took a breath. This is really a big deal. These three elite field divisions are the most combat-effective divisions in Japan, especially the second division code-named "Yong", which was even more powerful by the Japanese army.
He is known as the division with the most combat effectiveness in the world, and has always been the most valued by the Japanese high-level officials. This time, the base camp is willing to transfer him out of the Kwantung Army, which can be said to be a generous move.
Not only that, but what surprised Miyamoto even more was the unit of the First Tank Division. Before 1940, there was no such organization as a tank division in the Japanese military philosophy. In the thinking of the Japanese Army,
Here, the battlefield is still dominated by infantry. Chariots are just a product to support infantry. Just like airplanes, they can only exist as a supporting role. This is what Japan thinks and does. Although the Japanese
Nearly two thousand tanks were produced before, but the Japanese Army only assigned them to the following divisions and did not organize them into separate combat units.
The establishment of the tank division was something that was established after the Battle of Nomonhan, after the Japanese, who were beaten up by the torrent of Soviet armor, saw the power of the armored group and quickly imitated Germany.
On January 1, 1940, the 1st Tank Division was established in Manchuria. It consisted of the 3rd and 4th Tank Regiments, the 28th and 64th Infantry Regiments, and the 1st Duli Field Artillery Regiment.
The 12th Anti-aircraft Artillery Regiment, the 1st Heavy Artillery Regiment, the 24th Engineer Regiment, the 22nd Duli Engineer Regiment and other units. The entire division has two tanks including Type 95 and Type 1 tanks.
More than a hundred tanks, more than 8,000 infantry, and a powerful mobile division including more than a hundred anti-aircraft guns and field artillery. Now even this newly established tank division has been sent, which shows that the base camp is indeed now
He has regarded Suri and his Seventh Army as his number one enemy.
Hearing this, Miyamoto Kazuo knew everything. He silently bowed to coexistence Ningji and then retreated...
Naturally, Suri didn't know the plans of Okamura Neji and the Japanese base camp. At this time, he only had one idea, which was to mobilize the army to teach the Japanese troops who dared to take the initiative to attack him a harsh lesson.
Outer positions of Shicheng County
At this time, the outskirts of Shicheng County were almost in ruins. The Japanese 93rd Division, under the command of its division commander, Lieutenant General Sue Teng Chifumi, launched a fierce attack on Shicheng County. Because the Japanese attack was very sudden, this time
At that time, Shicheng County only had one infantry regiment and some local garrison troops defending, so the fight was very difficult.
"Everyone, hurry up and put all the wounded here. Xiaoli, call Dr. Qin here immediately and operate on the seriously injured here first."
This is a large, remote courtyard located in the northwest corner of Shicheng County, covering an area of three to four hundred square meters, so it is also used as a temporary field hospital. Since the war began, a steady stream of wounded people have been sent here.
Liu Yi and Hou Hou were sitting in a corner dejectedly. Their faces were now covered with red and black dust and blood stains, and their military uniforms had long been turned into rags. Liu Yi
The head was wrapped in thick gauze, and the monkey's left shoulder was also wrapped in gauze. At this time, there was still faint blood seeping out. The two of them just leaned against the wall and sat dejectedly. Behind them sat
Dozens of soldiers from the Seventh Company, almost all of them were decorated with colors.
During the patrol the day before yesterday, Liu Yi's Seventh Company was caught off guard by the Japanese army. Most of the company's officers and soldiers were lost. Only less than fifty of the more than one hundred and sixty people returned, and even among those who came back, almost everyone
Guacai, Liu Yi and Monkey were not spared either.
Listening to the rumbling sound of artillery outside, Monkey's already depressed mood became more and more irritable. He stared at Liu Yi with bloodshot eyes and said: "Boss, there is something wrong with the sound of artillery outside. Almost all of them are Japanese mountain artillery."
The sound of our artillery can hardly be heard, what is going on?"
Liu Yi glared at him angrily and said angrily, "You still don't understand, we are the only regiment guarding here. The supporting artillery fire originally only had one artillery battery of nine 105 howitzers.
They were all used up in the artillery battle with the Japs. What are we going to do now to fight back? You know, there is a whole division of Japs outside. I guess if the reinforcements don’t come tomorrow, all of us will be martyred.
.”
The monkey snorted: "Man, if I die in the sky, I will die for tens of thousands of years. Anyway, I have killed many Japanese since I became a soldier. It is not a loss even if I die in battle. But I am not convinced. Since I became a soldier,
When have we ever suffered such a loss? This battle was too useless!"
As soon as Monkey finished speaking, the soldiers on the side also started shouting: "That's right, company commander, when have we ever suffered such a loss? In the past, when the little devils saw us, we would hide away, but now it's better, these little devils
The lame man is actually wearing a big shirt - he is shaking, and the brothers really can't swallow this breath."
"Yes, company commander, look at it, our company originally numbered more than 160 people, but now we can't even make up 60 people. If the little devil fights us with real swords and guns, the losses will be greater, brothers."
I admit it, but the little Japs are so shameless that they ambush us. We can't swallow this breath no matter what! Company Commander, you should take your brothers to the battlefield to fight the Japs. Even if they all die in battle, it's still worthy of those.
Dead brother!"
The soldiers said something to each other, and the whole yard became noisy... To be continued.)(,..,or enter "in Baidu")
