Although the Chief of the Operations Section of the North China Front Army Staff Headquarters, Kanemitsu Keijiro, swore that the fall of Tianjin was inevitable, this did not mean that the Japanese would give up Tianjin willingly. On the contrary, it was precisely because they knew that the fall of Tianjin was inevitable.
Avoiding it will make the Japanese become even more unscrupulous and crazy than before!
Anami Yuki immediately ordered Kasahara Yukio to send a telegram to the Japanese troops stationed in Tianjin and prepare to destroy the whole city!
The subtext of the so-called "destruction of the whole city" is that we would rather burn the jade and the stone together than return the complete Tianjin to the Chinese!
As early as after the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded China and burned the Old Summer Palace, Little Japan established a Chinese garrison. This Chinese garrison was stationed in Haiguang Temple, Tianjin. After the July 7 Marco Polo Bridge Incident, the Sino-Japanese war broke out in an all-round way, and the Chinese garrison quickly expanded.
It became the 27th Army Division, with Masaharu Honma as the first division commander.
Previously, the main force of the 27th Division had been transferred to the Gu'an front line by Anami Weiji. Now the only one left in Tianjin was the 3rd Regiment of the Chinese Garrison Infantry. The commander of the regiment was a Japanese colonel named Watari Sakon.
At this moment, Watari Sakon was on duty at the headquarters of Kaikoji Barracks.
As a senior officer of the North China Japanese Army, Watari Sakon naturally knew that the situation faced by the North China Front Army at this time was very bad, especially Xu Rui's Chahar Independent Regiment, which had already reached Zhuoxian and Gu'an lines, and was in contact with the North China Front Army.
Peiping, where the headquarters is located, is only a stone’s throw away!
Tianjin and Peiping are also very close to each other. As the top officer of the Tianjin garrison, Watari Sakon naturally dare not be careless. Who knows if the Chahar Independent Regiment will send a partial division to suddenly come over to attack Tianjin, right?
What's more, Tianjin City has gathered concessions from six countries. It was originally a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and the Japanese military police could not control it. Therefore, in the past few days, Watari Sakon did not even dare to go to the house of his Belarusian mistress. He stayed at the Haiguang Division Barracks every day to avoid
Be able to respond promptly when emergencies arise.
While I was on duty, there was a sudden burst of gunfire outside the headquarters.
Watari Sakon suddenly stood up in surprise, opened the drawer again and took out a pistol.
After a while, Adjutant Asano Kensuke quickly walked into the office.
Seeing Asano Keysuke's calm expression, Watari Sakon breathed a sigh of relief and asked in a deep voice: "Asano-kun, what was the gunshot just now?"
Asano Keysuke said: "They are two resistance elements from the anti-resistance group. They have been killed by the guards of the headquarters! It's okay!"
The Anti-Regiment that Asano Keysuke mentioned is the abbreviation of the Anti-Japanese Anti-Japanese Anti-Japanese Anti-Japanese Rebellion Regiment. This is an assassination organization led by the military commander, and most of the killers in the organization are young ladies from Beiyang. On the surface, their identities are public, and one
They all have a lot of energy behind them, which gives the Tianjin Military Police a headache.
"Bagagaru." Watari Sakon couldn't help but gnashed his teeth and cursed, "These resistance elements are really going too far. They dare to go to the barracks of Haiguang Temple and act wild. It seems that they must be taught a lesson.
.”
Asano Keysuke said: "Your Excellency, Colonel, this may not be easy to handle, because the headquarters of the resistance group is hidden in the British Concession, and most of the resistance elements in the organization are former Qing nobles or young ladies of Beiyang bosses who live in the Six Nations Concession.
Some of them are simply young men and young ladies from high-level officials in Manchukuo. Even if they are arrested, they will only be detained for a few days at most and then released."
Watari Sakon shook his head and said: "It used to be okay, but now that the situation is tense, they can no longer let them mess around. You should immediately greet the former Qing nobles in the Six Nations Concession, the Beiyang bosses, Manchukuo, and the high-level officials of the reform government one by one, and let them
Take good care of your children, otherwise if something happens, the imperial army will show no mercy!"
Asano Keysuke persuaded in a low voice: "Your Excellency, Colonel, this doesn't seem good, does it?"
"There's nothing wrong with that!" Watari Sakon said nonchalantly, "The current situation is tight, we must arrest and kill a few role models, and severely reduce the power of those resistance elements! Otherwise, Tianjin City will be in chaos?"
Seeing that Watari Sakon was determined, Asano Kensuke said no more.
But at this moment, the phone on the big table suddenly rang.
Asano Kensuke walked to the big table, grabbed the receiver and said: "Mashi Mashi, this is Kaikoji Temple."
A majestic voice immediately came from the other end of the phone: "I am Anami Weiji, please let Tozuo-kun take the call!"
"Hai!" Asano Kensuke quickly stood up to attention, then snapped his feet to stand at attention, then handed the phone to Watari Sakon, "His Majesty Colonel, the Commander wants to speak to you."
"Nani?" Watari Sakon was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then reached out to take the microphone and nodded heavily.
The next moment, Anan Weiji's voice came from the phone receiver: "Du Zuojun? Listen carefully, the Chahar Independent Regiment has gone to Tianjin, and the front army's forces are already in Zhuoxian and Gu'an
Expand, there is no time to return reinforcements anyway, so your third regiment of infantry garrison must be prepared to destroy the whole city!"
When Watari Sakon heard this, his heart suddenly shivered, and the whole city was shattered!
Anan Weiji then said: "Besides, we must prepare immediately, do you understand?"
"Hai!" Watari Sakon suddenly stood at attention and responded with a sharp pause, "I understand my humble position!"
Putting down the phone, Watari Sakon's expression became extremely ferocious, and he said to Asano Kensuke: "Asano-kun, call the military police brigade immediately and order the military police to impose martial law on Tianjin City immediately! Without the warrant signed by me personally,
Including all Japanese nationals, no one is allowed to take to the streets, and offenders will be killed without mercy!"
"Hai!" Asano Kensuke turned around to leave, but was stopped by Sakon.
"Wait, I haven't finished speaking yet." Watari Sakon stopped Asano Kensuke and said, "Call the garrison at Dagukou Pier, Zhangguizhuang Airport and Laolongtou Station and order them to immediately destroy all military facilities and equipment.
of military supplies, and then withdraw to the city and wait for orders. Remember, you must be fast, the faster, the better!"
Tianjin is the largest seaport in North China and the terminus of the Tianjin-Puzhou Railway. Whether it is weapons and ammunition and other military supplies from Japan, or materials such as cotton and grain from Nanjing, they all need to be transited in Tianjin, so Tianjin is almost the same size as North China.
The largest distribution center for supplies, with countless supplies stored!
Even Tianjin's Zhangguizhuang Airport can be called the largest military airport in North China.
Since Anan Weiji has issued an order to destroy the entire city of Tianjin, these weapons and ammunition, military supplies and even large weapons such as bombers must be destroyed! They must not fall into the hands of the Chinese under any circumstances! Otherwise, these weapons and ammunition and
The military supplies will be used by the Chinese immediately, which in turn will help the Chinese army fight the Japanese army!
"Hai!" Asano Keysuke said solemnly and went back to his office to make a phone call.
As soon as Asano Keysuke left, Watari Sakon grabbed the phone on the big table, shook the handle vigorously, and then said to the operator: "Answer it for me..."
Before the old devil finished speaking, a blind tone sounded on the phone.
"Baga, what's going on?" Watari Sakon was stunned for a moment, then shouted into the microphone, "Mashi Mashi?"
However, there was still no response on the phone, only a blind beeping tone that continued to echo.
"Bagagaru!" Watari Sakon was so angry that he slammed the phone on the big table. Just when he was about to turn around and go out, he saw his adjutant Asano Keysuke coming over in a hurry.
"Bagagaru!" Watari Sakon scolded, "Why don't you hurry up and have someone check it out to see if it's a problem with the wiring in the barracks or a malfunction at the telephone exchange?"
"Hai!" Asano Keysuke paused heavily and turned to leave.
"Wait a minute!" Watari Sakon suddenly stopped Asano Kensuke again and said in a deep voice, "Forget it, I don't know when the line will be repaired, but I don't know when it will be. I'd better send the signal corps to notify separately and immediately go to Dagukou.
The pier, Laolongtou Station and Zhangguizhuang Airport will send signals corps and gendarmerie, and we must notify them as soon as possible!"
"Hai!" Asano Keysuke paused again and turned to leave.
However, he still didn't move this time. As soon as Asano Keysuke turned around, a guard ran over in a panic.
"Your Excellency, Colonel, Your Excellency Colonel..." The guard rushed to Watari Sakon in a panic, panting and reported, "Wolf, the wolf is coming, Your Excellency Colonel, huh, huh, the wolf is coming..."
"Nani, the wolf is coming?" Watari Sakon was stunned when he heard this. Where did the wolf come from in the big city?
"Bagagaru, what are you talking about?" Asano Kensuke scolded and raised his right hand, as if he was going to slap the guard in the face. However, after raising his hand, it stopped in mid-air.
I haven't been able to fan it down yet.
Watari Sakon noticed the abnormality of Asano Keysuke out of the corner of his eye. When he looked back quickly, he was surprised to find that Asano Keysuke's face had burst outward from the center of the bridge of his nose, and the bones inside
The flesh and blood rolled out, like a bloody demon flower that suddenly bloomed, revealing a coquettish and cruel beauty!
"Wolf, wolf, wolf!" The guard howled miserably again, then turned around and ran away.
Watari Sakon was worthy of being a veteran, and he immediately realized that Asano Kensuke had been shot!
"Bagagaru!" Watari Sakon reacted quickly and hurriedly reached for the pistol at his waist. However, he was still too slow. Before Watari Sakon could take out the gun, a bullet was already spinning over at high speed, and it flew over in an instant.
The old devil's shot entered between his eyebrows, penetrated the entire cranial cavity, and then exited through the back of his head, taking away a piece of his skull!
The head was shot through, and a large piece of the skull was blown off. Miraculously, Watari Sakon did not lose consciousness immediately, but his whole body suddenly lost control and fell down. When he was dying, the old Japanese saw
A group of armed men rushed in quickly with firearms equipped with silencers. What a wolf, it turned out to be Wolf Fang!
