At the same time, at the Imperial Palace in Tokyo.
Hirohito was having lunch in the imperial study room. Because he was in a good mood, Hirohito asked the imperial chef to cook a few more dishes. He even ordered a pot of Kiku Masamune sake and asked several cabinet ministers to drink with him.
Hirohito was indeed in a good mood these days because of the frequent reports of victory in the Far East battlefield.
First, Ogahara Junsi's special operations brigade safely withdrew to Northern Manchuria after the surprise attack on Khabarovsk, and also brought back the commander-in-chief of the Soviet Far East Front, Blyukher, and the political commissar of the front army, Cherev.
Hull tried to grab a gun and commit suicide on the way. Although he failed in the end, he broke the artery in his leg and eventually bled to death.
However, even if he failed to capture the commander of the Soviet Far Eastern Front, Bluukher, and only captured the political commissar Chelev, it would be enough for Hirohito to be happy for several days, not to mention that it was not just the Okahara Special Forces who reported the success.
, and the Kwantung Army's northward attack group under the personal command of Kanji Ishihara.
The northward attack group, composed of the 27th Division, the 2nd Division, the 4th Division, the 1st Independent Tank Division, and the 2nd Independent Field Heavy Artillery Brigade, has successfully occupied Chita.
Cutting off the Siberian Railway means that the more than one million Soviet Red Army troops in the Far East have been completely reduced to a lone army.
Of course, this does not mean that the more than one million Soviet Red Army troops in the Far East are doomed.
In fact, the Far East war between Japan and the Soviet Union has just begun. The Kwantung Army's northbound cluster will have to hold on in Chita until at least October, and it will not be considered complete until the entire Siberia enters winter and traffic is completely interrupted! As long as the Kwantung Army's northbound cluster is in Chita.
Holding on until October, waiting for the Soviet Far East Front, the result can only be the complete destruction of the army.
Therefore, the Far East Campaign has just begun, and it is far from the time to celebrate.
Because, next, the Soviet Far East Front Army and the reinforcements from Central Asia and Siberia will definitely coordinate with the Far East Front Army to launch a crazy counterattack towards Chita! In order to meet the Soviet army's crazy counterattack, Ishihara Kanji even asked the base camp to move the small
The Luyuan Special Warfare Brigade was also transferred to Chita to participate in the battle.
However, even so, it still cannot conceal the fact that the Kwantung Army has achieved a staged victory.
Therefore, Hirohito was in a good mood. At least the Kwantung Army had won the first stage of the Japanese-Soviet war, right?
Hirohito sipped the wine in the wine cup, and then said to Hideki Tojo: "Tojo-kun, since Ishihara-kun values Ogawara-kun's special operations team so much, then agree to it."
Just now, while reporting the victory to the base camp and Hirohito, Ishihara Kanji lost no time in making a request, asking the base camp and Hirohito to allocate Ogahara Shunsi's special operations brigade to the northward attack group.
Through the surprise attack on Khabarovsk, Ishihara Kanji has fully realized the role of special forces. Ishihara Kanji discovered that if special forces are used well, they can really influence the outcome of a large-scale battle, so he made up his mind
The idea is to transfer Ogahara Junsi's special operations brigade to the northward attack group.
"Hai!" Hirohito said so, and Tojo Hideki could only agree.
Tojo Hideki is not stupid, because after winning the first stage of the Japanese-Soviet War, Ishihara Kanji is now a holy family member in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor. At this time, no matter how excessive the demands made by Ishihara Kanji, His Majesty the Emperor will not
Even if he refused, he wouldn't have to make His Majesty the Emperor unhappy just because of Ishihara Wanji.
However, Hirohito's good mood did not last long, because a battle report from Shanghai quickly ruined his good mood. The Ninth Division's military operation in Shanghai actually suffered a disastrous defeat! Not only was it a disastrous defeat
, even the division headquarters was captured by the patrol battalion, and the division commander Yoshizumi Ryosuke was also captured!
Bang! After listening to the report of the State Secretary, Hirohito was stunned for a moment, and then the chopsticks in his hand fell to the ground with a loud bang. After realizing his gaffe, Hirohito quickly bent down and wanted to pick it up.
The chopsticks fell to the ground, but accidentally knocked over the wine bottle placed on the low table.
Gulu, Guangdang! The wine pot rolled to the ground first, and then broke into pieces with a Guangdang sound. The wine in the pot instantly splashed out, and the mat was spilled. You saw the wine stains on the mat slowly spreading, Hirohito's chest
As he guessed, an unknown fire suddenly appeared, and then he raised his hand and knocked the short boy to the ground, then jumped up and roared at the top of his lungs.
"Baga, Baga Yalu! Trash, a bunch of rubbish, a bunch of losers, a bunch of losers!"
"A division, this is a permanent division, actually lost to a mere patrol battalion?"
"What's even more shameful is that even the division commander was captured. This shame is simply the biggest shame of the Imperial Japanese Army since the Meiji Restoration!"
"I just can't imagine how this battle was fought?"
"With the superior strength of a division, and the assistance of the Royal Association Army with such combat effectiveness as Broadway Building, facing the patrol battalion which is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of strength, they can actually fight like this? This is simply a shame!"
"Shame, what a shame, the Imperial Army has lost all face!"
Hirohito roared loudly, and suddenly his vision went dark, and he fell to the ground.
"Your Majesty!" Upon seeing this, Tojo Hideki and several cabinet ministers rushed forward to help Hirohito up.
But it was seen that Hirohito's face had turned pale, and he held his temples with both hands and groaned: "It hurts so much, my head hurts so much, it hurts so much, my head hurts so much..."
When Tojo Hideki and several cabinet ministers saw this, they immediately became extremely nervous.
Especially Kanin Miyazaihito, who is the Chief of Army General Staff and also the imperial uncle of Emperor Hirohito. When he saw Hirohito holding his temples and complaining that he had a headache, Kanin Miyazaihito immediately thought of his imperial nephew Yoshihito, who was also the emperor.
The Taisho Emperor of his generation was a mentally ill person. Wouldn't Hirohito follow in the footsteps of his father?
"Royal doctor!" Thinking of this, Xianyuan Gong Zairen made Lingling shiver, then turned around and roared loudly at a volume completely inappropriate for his age, "Send the message to the imperial doctor quickly, send the message to the imperial doctor quickly..."

Hirohito fell ill, but the situation in Shanghai did not stop.
After the remnants of the Broadway Building were picked up by more than a dozen warships of the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet, the patrol battalion immediately crossed Sichuan Road Bridge and Erbaidu Bridge, and cooperated with the 1st, 2nd and 3rd regiments to retreat to Hongkou and Yangshupu.
The remnants of the Ninth Division launched a fierce attack. Not only that, the patrol battalion also sent a reinforced battalion to the east along Yangshupu Road in an attempt to control various docks in Yangshupu District.
Due to the presence of the Japanese navy, the patrol battalion's attempt ultimately failed.
However, in this way, Hasegawa Kiyoshi's intention to put the remnants of the Broadway Building ashore from the Osaka Merchant Marine Terminal, Huishan Pier and other terminals also failed. Moreover, it was almost evening at this time. Due to the unclear situation, Hasegawa
The Qing could only temporarily leave the remnants of the Broadway Building on the warship.
Hasegawa Kiyoshi is not too worried that the people in Broadway Building will take the opportunity to fight. Firstly, the remnants of Broadway Building have been disarmed and under centralized custody. Without weapons, it is impossible for them to cause chaos even if they want to. Secondly, Hasegawa Kiyoshiya
I never thought that the remnants of the Broadway Building would cause chaos.
Previously, the people of Broadway Building fought fierce battles with the patrol battalion at Sichuan Road Bridge and Erbaidu Bridge. Kage Sasakiaki and Yoshizumi Ryosuke only saw the battle report, but Hasegawa Kiyoko witnessed it with his own eyes. Such a team fought life and death with the patrol battalion.
The troops probably have no other choice but to serve the imperial army wholeheartedly.
Therefore, Kiyoshi Hasegawa did not even specifically order to strengthen the supervision of the Broadway Building.
But then again, even if Hasegawa Kiyoshi ordered to strengthen the supervision of the remnants of the Broadway Building, it would probably be of no use, because among the remnants of the Broadway Building that were taken aboard, there were also nearly two hundred members of the Wolf Fang Brigade.
Special forces, these special forces are all kings among soldiers!
However, since it was not dark yet, Lang Ya did not take action.
(Dividing line)
At this time, the little devil actually didn't have any improvement at all.
The first person to realize that something was wrong was Kage Sasaki. After Kage Sasaki escaped back to the Nakamura Agency, he immediately sent an urgent telegram to Hasegawa Kiyoshi, requesting the Navy to get the remnants of the Broadway Building onto the ship. However, after sending the telegram,
After calming down, Yingzuo Zhenzhao suddenly felt something was wrong.
Yingzuo Zhenzhao is a veteran intelligence officer and is very sensitive to subtle clues.
Yingzuo Zhenzhao listed several suspicious situations, and then after a little comparison, he immediately discovered the anomaly.
Where did the patrol battalion ambush at Sihang Warehouse come from? Why were Broadway Building, No. 76, and the Nakamura Agency unaware of this? Moreover, before the troops stationed at Broadway Building at Sihang Warehouse were annihilated, they were sent back
A telegram confirming that all the National Army veterans detained in Sihang Warehouse have been executed!
Also, where did the patrol battalion ambush at the abandoned granary in the central area of the concession come from? Why were the Broadway Building, No. 76 and the Zhongcun agency unaware of this? No. 76 was under the key attack of the patrol battalion.
The strength has been severely damaged. It is normal that we did not hear the news beforehand. However, Broadway Building is strong and prosperous!
But why was Broadway Tower unaware of the changes in the patrol camp? This is completely illogical.
Thinking of this, Yingzuo Zhenzhao suddenly felt a chill in his heart. Is there something wrong with Broadway Building?
Or to be more precise, could it be that Liang Wuyi, the boss of Broadway Building, is actually a spy? Otherwise, Ying Zuo Zhenzhao cannot explain these anomalies at all. One coincidence can be said to be a coincidence, two coincidences can also be said to be coincidences, but three
It's a coincidence, but it can't be a coincidence anymore. This must be a carefully arranged shocking scam!
