There are actually factions among the senior generals of Little Japan, such as the Imperial Faction, the Establishment Faction, and the Young and Strong Faction. For example, Neji Okamura, who was originally very powerful in history, but was killed by Xu Rui in this time and space, is the Imperial Faction.
The backbone of the establishment faction, Umezu Yoshijiro is one of the representatives of the establishment faction.
However, the factions within Little Japan are not as bottom-lined as the national army. The factions among the national army, such as Yan Xishan, Han Fuqu, Song Zheyuan and others, dare to betray any national interests for their own interests, but
Little Japan is full of factions, and no matter how fierce they are, it is absolutely impossible to betray national interests.
All said, the Kuomintang is really rotten to the core, rotten to the core!
Getting back to the topic, faced with Umezu Yoshijiro's face-to-face teasing, Yamashita Tomofumi was speechless for a moment.
What can Yamashita Fengwen say? Two entire armored divisions fought against a mere tank battalion under Xu Rui, and in the end they both died. He was helpless when the battle ended like this.
However, Yamashita Fengfumi was not a kind person after all. After a moment of silence, he found a way to fight back.
Smiling slightly, Yamashita Fengwen retorted: "Umezu-kun actually had the time to come to my headquarters today. It must be that there has been significant progress in the war against the rebels, right?"
"This..." Now it was Umezu Yoshijiro's turn to be speechless.
According to the division of labor at the base camp, after Yamashita Tomofumi's main force of the Far Eastern Army returned to Manchuria, it was only responsible for chasing Xu Rui's troops, while the battle of revolt in Manchuria was left to the Kwantung Army of Umezu Yoshijiro. Considering the strength of the Kwantung Army at this time
It was seriously insufficient, and the Japanese base camp even transferred three divisions from the Far East Army to the Kwantung Army.
After the three divisions of the Far Eastern Army were in place, Umezu Yoshijiro immediately began to suppress the various rebels in the three eastern provinces. However, what was unexpected was that he failed in the first battle in Songyuan County.
The infantry regiment was ambushed by local rebel forces and suffered heavy losses. Even the regiment leader was killed.
Unable to find any words to refute, Umezu Yoshijiro could only say stiffly: "Yamashita-kun, you should think carefully about how to destroy Xu Rui first. As for the rebellion in Manchukuo, I don't need you to worry about it. We in Kanto
The army has the ability and confidence to suppress the rebel armed forces in various places in a short period of time."
Yamashita Fengwen's goal was achieved, so he was not too self-indulgent, and said sincerely: "Umezu-kun, regarding the armed rebellions that are surging across Manchukuo, the imperial army must not suppress them blindly. Otherwise, let alone the three divisions, just
Calling ten divisions here will probably not help, let alone reducing the entire Manchuria to ruins, which is definitely not what the empire wants, right?"
Umezu Yoshijiro felt the goodwill released by Yamashita Fengfumi, and asked sincerely: "Yamashita-kun, you once commanded security operations in the occupied area of Central China. You must have some experience on how to suppress civilian rebellions, but you don't know how to suppress them."
Do you have any advice on the rebellion in Manchuria?"
"I can't speak highly of you." Yamashita Fengwen waved his hand and said, "My humble opinion is that, to put it simply, we cannot blindly forcibly suppress, let alone engage in massacres, otherwise it will only make the resistance of the rebels weak.
It’s even more intense. Ishihara Kanji didn’t realize this, so he provoked a large-scale rebellion and almost put the empire in a state of total disaster!”
Umezu Yoshijiro said: "Yamashita-kun means to win over and divide the various rebel forces. Am I right?"
"Soderga." Yamashita Fengwen nodded and said, "For those rebels who may be bought and won over, we must not begrudge the financial losses, because no matter how much the price is paid, the final profit must be the imperial army. Only those who
Only the armed forces that can never be bribed or roped in will be dealt a merciless blow! Completely annihilate them!"
"I understand." Umezu Meijiro nodded happily and said, "Thank you, Yamashita-kun."
"You're welcome." Yamashita Fengwen said modestly, "I didn't help at all."
The two old devils shook hands and made peace. Umezu Yoshijiro hurriedly returned to the headquarters of the Kwantung Army, and then really adjusted his policies towards the various rebel forces. It must be admitted that the strategies provided by the old devil Yamashita Tomofumi were still very powerful.
Under the divided Kwantung Army, a large number of armed forces defected in less than half a month.
In less than half a year, the riot that Xu Rui had finally pushed forward was completely quelled.
…
Let us turn our attention back to the Independent Regiment.
Just when Yamashita Fengfumi and Umezu Yoshijiro were planning how to deal with the various armed forces in the Northeast, the independent regiment officially began a large-scale transfer from Fengtian to the Changbai Mountain area. There were more than 5,000 remnants, more than 3,000 wounded, and a large amount of baggage.
, left the city from the east gate of Fengtian, and marched toward Fushun County in a mighty manner.
Wang Husheng checked the regiment headquarters for the last time and made sure that he did not leave any documents or any useful materials for ghosts. Then he reluctantly left the regiment headquarters building. Outside the gate of the regiment headquarters, guard Tian Yan
He was already holding the horse and waiting, but Wang Husheng waved his hand, indicating that Tian Yan didn't have to leave in a hurry.
Tian Yan had no choice but to hold the horse and wait where he was.
Wang Husheng turned into a nearby alley and walked into a commoner's home.
Seeing Wang Husheng walk in the door, the old lady who was sitting inside the door picking up the soles of her shoes quickly got up. Wang Husheng quickly waved his hand to indicate that the aunt didn't need to be polite, then turned around and walked into the backyard, and with the help of the aunt, he went down to the corner of the backyard.
The cellar was a little stuffy because of the lack of air circulation.
After getting off the escalator, Wang Husheng immediately saw Liu Mei lying in the corner.
Liu Mei was injured in a Japanese air raid two days ago, and her injuries were extremely serious.
Due to the timely operation, his life was saved, but it was impossible to recover in a short period of time, and the main force of the regiment had to be transferred to Changbai Mountain at this time. As a cadre, Liu Mei resolutely refused to organize special care and insisted on joining other seriously injured people.
They stayed together in Fengtian and waited until they recovered from their injuries at a common people's home before returning to the team.
Naturally, Xu Rui firmly opposed it and insisted on taking Liu Mei away.
But this time, Wang Husheng finally used his veto power as a political commissar for the first time, vetoed Xu Rui's decision, and kept Liu Mei in the home of a loyal and reliable fortress household.
And now, Wang Husheng came to say goodbye to his lover.
Liu Mei heard the sound of the cellar opening and closing, and when she saw someone coming down, she struggled to sit up.
Wang Husheng quickly rushed to the hospital bed, gently pressed Liu Mei's hand, and said softly: "Ye Zi, don't move."
Liu Mei smiled slightly at Wang Husheng and said in a low voice: "Old Wang, are the troops leaving?"
"Yeah." Wang Husheng hummed softly, with a clear nasal sound, and his eyes almost watered down. He quickly turned away because he didn't want Liu Mei to see him crying, because the patient was ill.
Don't be sad. Once you are sad, your mind will be hurt. Once you are sad, your recovery will be much slower.
Moreover, Wang Husheng had a very bad premonition that if they said goodbye today, he and Liu Mei might not be able to see each other again.
Therefore, Wang Husheng did not want Liu Mei to see the sadness in his eyes. As a lover, Liu Mei could easily feel his mood through his eyes.
"Old Wang, don't be like this." However, what Wang Husheng didn't expect was that even though Liu Mei couldn't see his eyes, she could feel the sadness in his heart, and in turn she smiled and comforted him, "Seriously,
I am very satisfied to be able to meet you again in Shanghai and stay together for so many days. I have no regrets in this life."
"Don't be ridiculous, your injury will heal soon, and then we can be together again." Wang Husheng quickly turned around to comfort Liu Mei after hearing this, but tears flowed down unsatisfactorily. Being ruthless may not be a true hero.
, How can you be compassionate to your wife but not your husband? Revolutionary couples are still lovers, and they also hope to fight with their lovers.
"Yes, we will be together again soon." Liu Mei nodded with a smile, but her eyes were sparkling with tears. After a pause, she couldn't help but tell Wang Husheng again, "Old Wang, Sweet Potato's temper is too hot.
Take it off, Lao Xu loves him too much, you must watch him more for me and never let him make mistakes, especially his wrong lifestyle."
"You should tell him this yourself." Wang Husheng no longer bothered to cover it up and choked out, "This kid Digua listens not only to you but also to Lao Xu. He doesn't listen to others at all."
Liu Mei said quietly: "You are his brother-in-law and a political commissar, so he will still listen."
Looking at Liu Mei's pale and pretty face, Wang Husheng suddenly felt a little regretful and said, "Ye Zi, otherwise I'd better take you with me. It doesn't matter if you are one more person."
Liu Mei shook her head and said with a smile: "Husheng, if you have this heart, I will be satisfied. I, Liu Mei, have not been in vain with you, but we are members of the Communist Party after all." After a pause, Liu Mei
Then he said, "I would be very satisfied if you could come and see me before leaving. Lao Wang, let's say goodbye like this."
"Goodbye!" Wang Husheng choked and nodded, then turned around and left.
After leaving his aunt's house, Wang Husheng walked out of the alley as quickly as possible, then got on his horse and rushed out of the east gate of Fengtian with Tian Yan like a wind and the remaining clouds.
At this time, almost all the main forces of the independent group had left the east gate.
As soon as the main force of the Independent Regiment left, there were continuous explosions in Fengtian City.
In the continuous explosions, more than a dozen factories, including Fengtian Ordnance Factory, were all blown into ruins, and the machinery and equipment of these more than ten factories were also blown into scrap metal. Xu Rui was not
Zhang Shaoliu, it is impossible for him to return an intact Fengtian and so many factories to the Japanese intact.
