Chapter 650 The 31st Regiment of the Security Force
Sorry, this chapter is even later.
I did ideological work for my child last night. This is what I discovered when my child went home to take online classes. After he went to college, games and homework coexisted every day... He finished his homework in a hurry and then played games. This may be the so-called retaliatory relaxation.
Well, I was too nervous during the college entrance examination before, but I relaxed after entering college.
Fortunately, the child was obedient, and after more than an hour of ideological work, he was able to talk things through. I was afraid that I would make the same mistake again when I go back to school...
————————————
The reason why Okamura Neiji is called the 31st Regiment of the Security Army is because this regiment is quite special: other regiments of the North China Security Army are all composed of Chinese people, but the 31st Regiment of the Security Army appears to be Chinese, but in fact it is
Devil.
The difference is that the Japs in the 31st Regiment of the Security Army were formed by the descendants of the Japs in China.
There was a similar army in the Northeast, which the Japanese called the "Jing'an Army."
The vast majority of the members of this army are the descendants of the "Pioneering Group" that the Japanese moved from the mainland... Of course, the Japanese "Pioneering Group" plan was not many years old, and these descendants were not born and raised in China.
The 31st Regiment of the Public Security Army is different. Its members are mainly developed based on the descendants who grew up in China in the Japanese Concession in Shanghai.
This is a far-sighted plan by Okamura Neji.
Okamura Neiji thought at that time, since most of these descendants can speak Chinese and even have similar living habits to Chinese people, why not make use of these people?
Therefore, during the recruitment process, these people were deliberately concentrated into one unit.
What's even more insidious is...
Okamura Neiji did not put them in the Japanese army, because Okamura Neiji believed that this would not be able to play their due role, not only would they not be able to play their role, it would even be a waste.
Okamura Neiji incorporated them into the North China Security Army, trained and equipped them like Chinese people, and even hid their identities. He also made up a very reasonable-sounding life experience, that is, disguised them as native Chinese people.
.
Okamura Neiji's original intention was to have this regiment mixed with the North China Security Army so that they could become a model for the entire army and let other Chinese people in the North China Security Army know that there was another army that could be so loyal to the empire and highly valued by the empire.
This is actually a double act, using one's own people as a pretense in the security forces to influence others.
For Neji Okamura, the soldiers of the 31st Regiment of the Security Army are descendants of the Imperial people by blood, so there is definitely no problem with their loyalty. They will not defect at critical moments like other security forces, so they
You can take on more important tasks.
After a while, Zhang Qiming, the leader of the 31st regiment, stood in front of Okamura Neji.
"Sato-kun, how is everything?" Okamura Neji patted Zhang Qiming on the shoulder.
Zhang Qiming's real name is actually Jiro Sato, the son of a diplomat from the Japanese Concession.
Zhang Qiming was startled when he heard Neji Okamura call him "Sato-kun", because he and his subordinates were previously ordered to forget their surnames and only use Chinese surnames, so now they suddenly heard his real name and felt a bit awkward. At the same time,
I was also a little moved.
"Your Excellency, General!" Sato Jiro asked excitedly in Japanese: "Can we finally return to the Imperial Army?"
After so many years in the security army, only Sato Jiro knew the sufferings the 31st Regiment suffered.
Because they cannot expose their identities, and also to make other Chinese people in the North China Security Army believe that they are Chinese, except for a few high-level commanders like Okamura Neji, even the Imperial Army knows their identities.
No one knows that the 31st Regiment is "one of our own".
Therefore, they were beaten, scolded and bullied in daily life. During the battle, the 31st regiment was treated as cannon fodder. If someone was injured, they would be treated like other Chinese people. They would not be given any medicine at all. At most, they would just put a bandage on them.
Throw it in a corner and endure it.
Now, are these days finally over?
Sato Jiro was so excited that his eyes were filled with tears.
Okamura Neji nodded with an expression of appreciation. The reason why he called Sato by his real name after meeting was because he wanted to
See if he has been assimilated by the Chinese and cannot distinguish his identity. Now it seems that his worries are completely unnecessary.
"No, Sato-kun!" Okamura Neiji said: "You have been fighting in the empire's army and loyal to the empire, so how can you say "return"?"
"Yes!" Sato Jiro straightened up.
"Now! I have a very dangerous mission for you, Sato-kun..."
"Please give me your order, General!" Jiro Sato quickly replied: "The 31st Regiment will definitely live up to your high expectations, General!"
Okamura Neiji took two steps to the side and asked, "Do you know that the North China Security Army on the front line is forming into a large number of organized and surrendered Eighth Route Army troops recently?"
"Yes!" Jiro Sato replied: "We also heard some noises. Some troops are discussing this matter and seem to be planning to surrender!"
After a pause, Sato Jiro suggested: "I think it is necessary for us to behead these people who deceive the public and stop them from surrendering!"
This is the so-called killing of chickens to frighten monkeys, and the Japanese often do this, whether against ordinary people or puppet troops.
But this time, that's not what Okamura Neji said.
He turned around and walked up to Sato Jiro again and said, "I will handle these matters. What you have to do is to surrender to the Eighth Route Army like those people!"
"What?" Sato Jiro thought he heard wrongly, and he looked at Okamura Neji in astonishment.
After being stunned for a while, he quickly replied: "No, Your Excellency General, the 31st Regiment has never forgotten that we are Imperial people, and we will never surrender!"
Okamura Neji laughed. He knew that Sato Jiro would misunderstand and thought this was a verbal test of his.
"I know, Sato-kun!" Okamura Neiji continued: "After you surrender, the Eighth Route Army will, as usual, take you to the second line for training. They will not even confiscate your equipment, and then you can..."
Only then did Jiro Sato understand Okamura Neji's intention, and quickly said "yes".
After Jiro Sato got off, Neji Okamura turned his attention to Takasaki Airport.
Okamura Neiji may be able to hand over the tasks of the 31st Regiment to the Continental Advance Team. However, the Continental Advance Team is not large in number, and the 31st Regiment has more than 2,800 people.
If an organized group sneaks into the Eighth Route Army's defense line, it will definitely open a gap in the Eighth Route Army's defense line through internal and external cooperation.
After that, the imperial mechanized troops quickly crossed through this gap and headed straight for Longxi Airport... the distance was only 70 kilometers, and it probably only took more than two hours!
Did the Eighth Route Army have time to react?
What does it mean if the Eighth Route Army loses Longxi Airport?
This means that the Eighth Route Army's defense line will be divided into two, and the Eighth Route Army will also be unable to contact the two ends because of the loss of an airport node in the middle. The Imperial Air Force will then use this vulnerability to seize air superiority.
Next, the balance of victory will tilt towards the Imperial Army!
Thinking of this, Okamura Neji showed a proud smile on his face.
The Eighth Route Army would never have thought that one day they would be engaged in a "blitzkrieg" by the mechanized troops of the Imperial Army, causing the entire line to collapse, right?
