Minamoto Yoshihiro, wearing Japanese military uniform with a solemn face, met Lieutenant General Kawagishi Bunzaburo, commander of the 20th Division of the Japanese North China Expeditionary Force Western Front, at the temporary headquarters of the 20th Division in Baoding City.
"Minamoto Yoshi-kun, sit down." Seeing Minamoto Yoshihiro Kogang walking into the headquarters, Bunzaburo Kawagishi, who was sitting behind the desk, waved to the direct heir of the Minamoto Yoshi family who stood at attention and saluted him and asked him to sit on the chair next to the desk.
.
Although his background is incomparable to that of a noble nobleman named Minamoto Yoshihiko, this Japanese division commander also has extraordinary experience. Not only did he become the Emperor's Attaché at the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, he even served as the Emperor's Attendant after being promoted to Army Major General.
.
In other words, the army lieutenant general has the emperor's big tree leaning on his back. Although Minamoto Yoshihiko's prominent aristocratic status is still impressive, he does not need to take it too seriously.
The reason why Hong Kong Minamoto Yoshi, a dignified army lieutenant general, was personally invited here was probably because of his ability. In the two years in the Northeast, Hong Gang Minamoto Yoshi has proven his extraordinary combat effectiveness. A man who has developed human
Potential martial arts masters are obviously much stronger than ordinary people when using thermal weapons.
"Minamoto Yoshi-kun, I believe you already know the direction in which our army will attack next!" Bunzaburo Kawagishi saw that Minamoto Yoshihiro was not sitting on the chair but standing straight to one side, with a look on his face.
A smile of satisfaction.
Very good, Minamoto Yoshihiro Gang did not give him the airs of a nobleman, which made the Japanese lieutenant general very satisfied. In Chinese terms, this is called very knowledgeable.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, you have any dispatches, but it doesn't matter." Minamoto Yoshihiro didn't directly answer the boss's question, but replied indifferently.
Yoshihiro Minamoto has strictly adhered to his duties as a soldier in the military, but that does not mean that he will kowtow to the lieutenant general. Whether it is his own noble status or the ultimate martial arts he pursues, it is not allowed.
.
The Japanese Lieutenant General hit a soft nail. He was secretly angry in his heart but did not show it at all on his face. Instead, he stood up with a smile on his face and said leisurely: "Minamoto Yoshi-kun, you are the most outstanding person on this island."
It is indeed a blessing for the empire to have talented martial arts talents who can serve in the army. However, the battlefield is not a martial arts arena. In the hail of bullets and artillery fire, if you want to win, you must not rely on personal force, but the overall strength of the army. This truth,
Do you understand?"
"Hi! Your Excellency, the division commander, taught you a lesson, Minamoto Yoshihiro has just learned." Minamoto Yoshihiro just nodded in agreement, giving his immediate superior some face.
After all, what this person said is correct. On the battlefield, personal force value is indeed nothing. Even if he encounters a small group of fully armed Imperial warriors, he can only choose to flee.
"Okay, Minamoto Yoshi-kun, since it is best for you to understand this truth, I will briefly explain to you the next step of the battle plan of our Western Front Army, so that you can also understand the next task of you and your special attack team.
"Kawagishi Bunzaburo also nodded and said. "On the one hand, our Western Front Army will conquer Shijiazhuang and continue to pursue the Chinese troops fleeing south. At the same time, we will also attack the Chinese troops stationed here to prepare for the upcoming entry into Xinkou.
The fifth division led by Mr. Itagaki is here to provide support. Today, the Imperial Intelligence Agency has sent information that your old rival has arrived here from Sichuan, China."
Bunzaburo Kawagishi's eyes stopped at Niangziguan, the junction of Hebei and Shanxi on the map of northern China hanging on the wall.
Minamoto Yoshihiro just lowered his eyes with a flash of light, but he did not answer immediately, quietly waiting for the lieutenant general division commander in front of him to continue speaking.
A smile flashed in Bunzaburo Kawagishi's eyes, he paused, and continued: "Minamoto Yoshi-kun, I know you don't want to confront one of your old rivals all the time. However, I have told you before that this is a battlefield.
It is not a battleground, nor a place to use force to resolve personal grievances. There are many ways to defeat your enemy. For example, this time our entire 20th Division conquered the strategic area of Niangziguan in Shanxi, China and completely annihilated the Chinese army. You
Say, is it better?"
Seeing that Minamoto Yoshihiro Steel had no objection, Kawagishi Bunzaburo continued: "Which of your old rivals is a serious concern of the hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army. Four years ago, in the Battle of Rehe, China, our Imperial Japanese Warriors lost their lives in his unknown hands.
Fan Ji. Therefore, in this battle, our 20th Division not only has to conquer key areas in China to fulfill the military orders of the headquarters, but also to completely annihilate this Chinese army and take off the head of the Colonel Commander of China to serve as a foundation for our Empire of Japan.
The Army avenges its past humiliation. Do you understand?"
"Hi!" Yuanyoshi Honggang nodded heavily.
What Bunzaburo Kawagishi said was exactly what he thought. Revenge for his brother is no longer important. What is important is to eliminate that terrible enemy. Otherwise, in this life, as long as he thinks of that Ku Lie who almost hit him with his head as a weapon,
With his soul in disarray, there is a shadow in his soul, and the martial arts he pursues can never go any further.
"Before the army attacks, I will lead a special attack team in disguise to sneak into the Chinese war zone to find out their subordinates, provide intelligence to our army, and wait for opportunities to assassinate their senior generals." Minamoto Yoshihiro just raised his head, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"Yo Xi! Today our army will launch a full-scale attack on the Chinese defenders in Shijiazhuang and other places. Minamoto Yoshi-kun, you and your special attack team will set off after our army has completely eliminated the current enemies. His Majesty the Emperor and I are waiting
Good news for you and the warriors!" Bunzaburo Kawagishi nodded.
Looking at the back of Minamoto Yoshihiro who had just turned away, the smile on the Japanese Lieutenant General's face became even brighter.
The Chinese have a saying: Learn from the barbarians to gain skills in order to defeat the barbarians. It means learning the skills of the Westerners to resist the Westerners. As the division commander of the Imperial Permanent Division, Kawagishi Bunzaburo taught Liu Lang about the Great Wall and the Eighth Route Army.
The division did not know how many times they studied the battle. Liu Lang's foresight in constructing fortifications and sending surprise troops to attack the artillery were certainly impressive, but what impressed Bunzaburo Kawagishi the most was his use of scouts on the battlefield.
According to post-war statistics of the Japanese army, more than 20 commanders at all levels died at the hands of the scouts who were ambushing them on the battlefield, including even a major general brigade commander. Although his cause of death was that he was beaten alive by frightened military horses.
Crushed to death.
However, if the unlucky guy who was still thousands of meters away from the Chinese position was not shot by a cold gun, how could the empire's carefully trained military horses be frightened?
Therefore, before the army base camp paid much attention to the existence of such elite scouts who could serve as eyes on the battlefield, Bunzaburo Kawagishi learned from the wonderful battle of the Independent Regiment at the Great Wall. After Minamoto Yoshikoro surrendered to the army, he
It was intended that he and the group of warriors he led would become battlefield scouts similar to an independent regiment.
In the past two years in the Northeast, the ninja warriors who have a foundation in martial arts and are becoming more and more proficient in thermal weapons have done a pretty good job. Many Chinese rebels have died under their hands. A reorganized squadron still failed to encircle and kill two of them.
Chinese masters also lost their lives at the hands of Yuanyoshi Honggang.
Now, using Chinese tactics to deal with the Chinese will undoubtedly give Kawagishi Bunzaburo a sense of accomplishment. He also firmly believes that Minamoto Yoshihiro Steel will not let him down.
Kawagishi Bunzaburo, who was full of confidence, certainly did not expect that while he was thinking about how to plot against Liu Lang, Liu Tuanzuo had already begun plotting against him, and was still working together to plot against him.
After all, as a little butterfly that traveled through time and space, Langdanza did not need Lieutenant General Kawagishi Bunzaburo to go to such great lengths to obtain Chinese intelligence through senior spies lurking in the Military and Political Department of Nanjing. After the war,
The war history clearly describes all the marching routes of a certain lieutenant general commander of the Japanese Western Front Army, including the deployment of troops and who the commander at the brigade level was.
It's like when playing a game, one side is still trying its best to see where the enemy is, but the other side is already observing your military deployment through satellites in the sky. With this kind of nearly invincible super golden finger, although the Chinese
The firepower is indeed much inferior to that of the Japanese army, but it is enough to offset it.
The Japanese, in this time and space, are destined to hit a hard wall.
However, Liu Tuanzuo, who started to form a gang to plot against the Japanese, probably did not expect that due to the intrusion of his little butterfly, some small changes would occur in this time and space.
For example, an elite team trained by a Japanese martial arts master who is no less inferior to his special forces will lurk into the Niangziguan defense area. The damage they can cause is equally astonishing.
The Japanese are really not stupid. Their learning ability is also among the best on the planet.
War is destined to be bloody. It is the same for both warring parties.
