Chapter 1146 The second stage of the campaign begins
The last incident in Zuibaichi nearly lost the important leaders of the two intelligence stations, the telegraph operators from the bureau headquarters, and the radio station to the hands of the Political Security Bureau. Therefore, this was a stain on the Shanghai Suburban Intelligence Station.
As an intelligence agency, it is impossible not to make mistakes, but the trouble is that I have not found out where I went wrong. What is even more troublesome is that this matter was solved by a brother unit who helped solve the problem during the work of the Political Security Bureau.
Boss Dai was so angry that he even asked the Operations Division of the Bureau Headquarters to formulate a special plan and asked the guerrillas of the Loyalty and Salvation Army to assist. All the leaders of the Shanghai Suburban Intelligence Station felt extremely pressured. Their future in the Military Command Bureau was determined by this boss.
Decide with one word.
"I will be responsible for hosting the Loyalty Salvation Army guerrillas this time. I will rush to Bodhi Zen Temple tomorrow to make arrangements in advance. It will take a lot of effort to hide a team of dozens of people. The key is
It’s hard to find temporary accommodation.”
"Some time ago, the Japanese army suffered losses from the underground party guerrillas and lost dozens of people. The Special High School has strengthened its intelligence collection in the suburbs. I took some money and bought a batch of food and drink in advance to put them there. These guerrillas
The brothers in the team are living a hard life, so they come to help us carry out our mission, and they have to make sure they are well-fed and well-fed." Qian Yuguang said with a smile.
Just when the Shanghai Suburban Intelligence Station, under the command of the bureau headquarters, joined forces with the Loyalty and National Salvation Army to ambush the Political Security Bureau and the Japanese military police, the battlefield in Henan Province became tense again.
Although the Japanese army was able to conquer a city or county in a day, it was not easy to achieve the predetermined combat goals. The boss of the First Theater Command had diarrhea, but there was still desperate resistance from troops from all over the country.
The war situation has reached the final core point, which is Luoyang, where the first theater headquarters is located. Among the Kuomintang-controlled areas in Henan Province, Luoyang's status is better than that of the commercial capital. This is the core city and the current administrative and military center. Naturally, it has become
The ultimate mission of the Japanese Twelfth Army.
"The North China Front is directly under the command of Deputy Lieutenant General Changde's 63rd Division in the North Plains, the 67th Brigade and the 9th Independent Infantry Brigade, as well as the 12th Field Replenishment Team stationed in Shimen, Hebei Province.
The total strength reached ten infantry brigades and were transported to Gong County east of Luoyang."
"Lieutenant General Yoshimoto Sadichi, commander of the Japanese First Army stationed in Jinyang, Shanxi, mobilized the independent mixed third brigade stationed in Nao County and the 59th brigade of the 69th Division stationed in Yuncheng, a total of eight infantry brigades.
, forcibly crossed the Yellow River and arrived at Mianchi, west of Luoyang, and captured Mianchi on the 11th."
"This time the North China Intelligence Agency showed a spirit of not fearing death. Intelligence agents from all over the country were bold enough to follow the Japanese troops to observe. There are people who are responsible for passing on intelligence at any time, link by link. When this battle is completed, we must give them a good thanks.
." Wang Zhen said.
"We intelligence officers are desperately collecting information, but those officers are retreating all the way. The information is of little use, and the army is defeated like a mountain!"
"The enemy has mobilized heavy troops to encircle Luoyang. The purpose is not only to seize the city, but also to encircle and annihilate the main force in the first theater. Of course, with the current speed of the Shancheng army, the Japanese army cannot catch up even with a car. Please pass the information to the bureau
Headquarters." Chen Mingxiang said.
The Japanese army mobilized a large number of troops from Shanxi Province to participate in the campaign against Henan Province, and the rear area was bound to be empty. However, the Eighth War Zone would rather use hundreds of thousands of troops to watch the underground party's base areas than use its troops to fight the Japanese army. The old man said that the underground party
The fear even exceeded the hatred towards the Japanese army, which can not but be said to be a kind of sadness.
At 19:30 on the evening of May 18th, a brigade of the 6th Regiment of the 6th Field Heavy Artillery Brigade commanded by the 63rd Division of the Japanese Army used twelve 150mm guns.
Howitzers kicked off the offensive and defensive battle of Luoyang, which ended on May 25.
However, the battle of the North China Front did not end. The First Army stationed in Jin Province later launched an attack on the western Henan region.
On May 23, the command post of Lieutenant General Isamu Yokoyama, commander of the Eleventh Army, was moved forward from Jiangcheng Headquarters to Puqi. Chen Mingxiang received news from the navy that the logistics support and transportation plan was completed.
On May 25, General Hata Toshiroku, Commander-in-Chief of the Expeditionary Forces, and Lieutenant General Matsui Tataro, Chief of General Staff, were in Nanjing. He and senior staff officer Masaichi Amano and other operational staff arrived at Jiangcheng and transferred the command post of the Expeditionary Forces Headquarters to Nanjing.
, located within the original Eleventh Army headquarters to facilitate the command of this battle nearby.
On the same day, eight divisions and one brigade of the Japanese army participating in the battle, as well as directly affiliated troops, arrived at their intended destinations, and the atmosphere became unprecedentedly tense.
Sure enough, on the 27th, the Japanese army began a military operation at night, attacking directly at the defense area of the 20th Army of the 27th Group Army. After the August 13th Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese army launched the largest offensive on the Chinese battlefield.
Opening ceremony.
"A call came from the bureau headquarters. As expected, the Japanese army started military operations on May 27th. They are currently engaged in a fierce battle with the 20th Army. The Military Commission will mark your merits once. The Ninth Theater Command will commend the meritorious personnel of the Military Command Bureau. Thank you for the information.
The timely delivery avoids tactical passivity.”
"Boss Dai replied that in view of the excellent intelligence collection work of the directly affiliated station on this battle, with the approval of the Military Commission, Zhan Sen and Jiang Anhua were promoted to major generals and division chiefs, awarded the third-class Baoding Medal, and a bounty of two thousand U.S. dollars. Two offices
Each of the meritorious personnel will receive a bounty of two hundred dollars, which will be advanced by our directly affiliated station. For my meritorious service in delivering the information in a timely manner, I will be awarded the first-class Yunhui Medal." Wang Zhen said with a smile.
"Look at how messed up I am. Even the division chief under me has become a general. Boss Dai is too casual. How can I, the webmaster, discipline him?" Chen Mingxiang said.
Of course this is a joke. His subordinates have been rewarded for their meritorious service. As a leader, it is natural that he has benefits. The power of the direct branch has increased a little.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, these people will be his direct descendants. Without his recommendation as the webmaster, who has made so many contributions and has such a close relationship with the headquarters, there are too many qualified colonels in the Military Command Bureau. How could those people
Didn't get promoted?
"Are you still jealous? They are all veterans of the Military Command Bureau. They have joined since the Secret Service period. Zhan Sen has made great achievements in eradicating traitors. Jiang Anhua is even more outstanding. He has taken advantage of being in the direct station. He can be promoted to major general this time.
It’s not too abrupt.”
"No matter how powerful the two of them are, they only have official military ranks. How dare they bare their teeth at you, the station commander? I wonder if there is any hope of being promoted to Major General Quanxu in this life, or if Quanxu has reached the top rank of Colonel."
"Besides, Boss Dai is a major general, but there are still few major generals in the Military Command Bureau? Just look around us. Chen Gongshu and Luo Mengxiang were both major generals in the past. After the Secret Service Headquarters was abolished, there are at least a few former major generals in the Military Command Bureau idle.
For example, Xiao Jiajia, Wang Zhongqi, Li Jiji, and Wang Tianmu, that’s six." Wang Zhen rolled his eyes at him and said.
