Years of the Republic of China 1913

The Japanese army came aggressively, and everyone knew that the war was about to start, but what surprised everyone was that the Japanese army gathered in the Kanto Prefecture, and the two sides were almost on the verge of breaking out. At the last moment, the two sides suddenly stopped moving, like a guy who took off his pants and was about to shit After squatting for a long time, nothing came out.Such an unexpected situation made the whole world puzzled, especially Zhang Zuolin on the front line, who couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Ri's own gourd.

It wasn't clear what Ri himself wanted to do for a while, but Zhang Zuolin was not idle, and took advantage of this rare opportunity to build the imperfect fortifications and at the same time start training the second-line troops.For this reason, the General Staff also specially dispatched several officers from the former military observation regiment to the front line to assist Zhang Zuolin in organizing the defense line by drawing on the experience of the European War.So far, strange scenes have appeared in Fengtian-Kantong Prefecture. In addition to the front-line soldiers of the northern Chinese squadron anxiously waiting for the outbreak of war, the soldiers after the second line and the recruited civilians are enthusiastically digging trenches, setting up Barbed wire and more.However, the Japanese army on the opposite side was silent and quiet. Except for a few troops scattered and preparing for preparations in the binoculars, there was no sign of the Japanese attacking aggressively at all.

Zhang Zuolin didn't know that at this time the Japanese Army headquarters on the opposite side was in chaos, and several senior Japanese army officers were arguing with each other endlessly.The reason for this is nothing else, but just a few days ago, Da Shanyan, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army, Lu Xiang and commander-in-chief, who led the plan, passed away suddenly.

Speaking of Dashanyan's death process can be regarded as dumbfounding, October 10th.For the smooth implementation of this plan, the smug Dashanyan took a lot of effort to pull out Emperor Taisho as a shield, and he came to participate in the army's military exercises in person.Who would have thought that Da Shanyan would accompany Emperor Taisho back and forth running back and forth with his stomach discomfort due to his physical discomfort and avoiding losing his appearance in front of the imperial court.Who would have thought that it was this "perseverance" of Bushido spirit that caused Dashanyan to lose his life in the end. When Emperor Taisho finished his inspection with great interest and returned happily, Dashanyan, who was still stiff a second ago, seemed to be deflated in a blink of an eye. The ball generally collapsed.First, the diarrhea continued.Then the intestinal stalk was twisted like a knife, and Da Shanyan, who was out of shape that day and night, was rushed back to Tokyo for treatment.

Although the distance from Fukuoka to Tokyo is not far away, there are no Shinkansen in Japan at this time.There was no faster plane flight, and it was already the early morning of the third day when I arrived in Tokyo with bumps along the way, although there were doctors and others accompanying me to take care of me.But when he was sent to the hospital, Da Shanyan was already rolling his eyes, breathing in less and exhaling more.

In order to save Da Shanyan's life, Ri himself tried all means, just like the "rescue at all costs" as advertised by later generations, but in the end there was nothing he could do.After struggling in the hospital for a few days, Da Shanyan finally took the regret of dying before leaving school, turned his eyes and kicked his legs, and went to see Amaterasu, leaving a mess to the bereaved concubine help me.

The sudden death of Dashanyan brought an extremely serious blow to the Japanese Army. As the planner and executor of the entire military plan, without Dashanyan, those divisions that had arrived in Kanto Prefecture and North Korea did not know how to implement it.Although Yusaku Uehara, as the chief of the army's general staff, took over the command of Dashanyan at the first time, compared with the expected Dashanyan, Yusaku Uehara is far from convincing in terms of prestige and qualifications.What's more terrible is that Dashanyan's strategy plan was originally proposed unilaterally by the army, and most of the Japanese cabinet disagreed.Especially the navy is even more tit-for-tat with the army.If it weren't for the influence of Dashanyan's status in Japan, coupled with his personal friendship with the naval boss Togo Heihachiro, the implementation of this plan would not have been so smooth.But now Dashanyan suddenly raised his braids, and the navy, which was already dissatisfied with the army, stopped doing it now, and clamored to revise the plan at the cabinet meeting.Change this war from army-led to navy-led, and change the attack target from Fengtian to Qingdao.

The navy's change of mind caught the acting commander-in-chief Yuzuo Uehara who had just taken over by surprise. He couldn't care less about rushing to Kanto Prefecture, so he could only stay in Tokyo and fight a wrangling lawsuit with the Ministry of the Navy.But without Dashanyan as a backer, how can the navy, which has always considered itself superior to the army, look down on the chief of the army's general staff?No matter how Yusaku Uehara coerced, lured, or even jumped into a rage, the proud navy simply ignored him.

Helpless, Uehara Yusaku even went to Togo Heihachiro.Trying to get Dongxiang to help persuade the navy to continue with the plan.But Togo Heihachiro supported his old friend Dashanyan under most of the pressure of the navy, and now that Dashanyan has passed away, it is impossible for Togo Heihachiro to continue to "eat inside and outside" for a Yusaku Uehara who has little friendship. Uehara Yusaku is in Dongxiang Heihachiro was shut down a few times, and he was furious, but he had nothing to do with the navy.

The sudden change of attitude of the Japanese Navy after the death of Dashanyan has greatly hindered the plan to implement the first step. In addition, the term of this cabinet is about to expire, and Shigenobu Okuma has started to transfer government affairs, and he has no energy or He said that he didn't want to intervene in the disputes between the army and the navy at all.The sudden change of the center also led to the chaos of the Japanese army that set foot on the mainland. Commander-in-Chief Da Shanyan died suddenly. Continuing to implement the plan and quarreling with each other, coupled with the change of the navy, the army will face logistical pressure after the war... and other reasons have caused this strange phenomenon on the front line.

"Baga! These navy generals should all be pulled out and shot! Without the navy, our army will fight the same battle. Our army is invincible. The victory or defeat of the war depends on our army, not those idiot navy who dare not go ashore!"

The head of the [-]th Division, Katsura Yamaguchi, slapped the table with his white-gloved palm, and the veins popping out on his forehead showed the extreme anger in his heart.As the division head of Japan's regular Class A Division, Katsura Yamaguchi is the second person present after the governor of Kanto Prefecture, Nakamura Sakuya. Make meritorious deeds in the war and follow in Da Shanyan's footsteps to become a Japanese hero.Unexpectedly, the sudden change made him dumbfounded, and the Japanese navy's stabbing in the back after Da Shanyan's death made him very angry. In his opinion, regardless of whether there is naval support or not, the negative navy is settled. With the great military fortune of his Tenth Division, he will definitely be able to expand the empire's territory again.

"Yamaguchi-kun said lightly, if you don't have the support of the navy, your 10,000th division can wipe out 18+ Chinese people on the opposite side? Or even the entire Chinese army? It's a joke. Do you really think you are the sixth day demon king? Regarding the arrogance of Masaru Yamaguchi, the head of the No.[-] division, Kamio Mitsuomi, sneered. He is quite intelligent in fighting, and he is also called a wise general in the Japanese army.

"You...a coward!" Katsuki Yamaguchi burst into anger, staring at Kamio Mitsuomi and gnashing his teeth. If it wasn't for the No. 15 division commander Yuhi Guangwei pulling him by his side, he might rush up and beat him up, embarrassing the army. guy.

Nakamura frowned slightly. As the governor of the army, like Katsura Yamaguchi, he was called a "violent general" in the army. In other words, he was synonymous with a simple mind and well-developed limbs. Nakamura felt his blood boiling because of his own taste, especially the fact that the victory or defeat of the war depended on the army instead of the navy.However, as the governor, he does not have the right to directly intervene in the army, and Kamio Mitsuomi is his colleague, so it is inappropriate to speak to Yamaguchi in person.

"The death of Your Excellency Dashan is a great loss for our army. Although your Excellency has made a strategic strategy before your death, the acting commander-in-chief, Your Excellency Uehara, has not yet arrived. In my opinion, we should wait until His Excellency Uehara is here before discussing this issue. "As a landlord, Nakamurajue can only smooth things over.

"Yeah, Yamaguchi-kun, don't be angry. In fact, Kamio-kun didn't mean that. After all, war is not a trivial matter. Without the support and transportation of the navy, the ammunition alone is seriously insufficient, let alone a big war with the Chinese army. Kamio-kun, you What do you say?" Yuhi Koe pulled Yamaguchi Katsura, and kept winking at Kamio Koomi.

Wei Wei nodded, after all, everyone is an army, and it would not do him any good to have a falling out with Masaru Yamaguchi.Kamio Mitsuomi sighed: "It's like this. According to the original plan, the navy will transport a large amount of supplies to the Kanto Prefecture after our troops arrive, but now the navy has suddenly changed its mind, and all plans have been disrupted. At this time, if only our Attacking with strength may go smoothly at the beginning, but once the existing materials and ammunition are exhausted, we will face an extremely embarrassing situation, please think twice about this point!"

"Yeah yeah!"

Several other people nodded again and again, showing anxiety and uneasiness in their expressions. Katsura Yamaguchi opened his mouth as if to refute, but in the end he held back his breath and pounded heavily on the table with his fists clenched.

This kind of discussion has been going on for three consecutive days, and every time the discussion has come to nothing.The Japanese soldiers in Kanto Prefecture were anxiously looking forward to the arrival of Yusaku Uehara, but Yusaku Uehara was arguing back and forth in Tokyo over the matter with the navy, and he couldn't escape.Moreover, the Second Fleet, which was ordered by the high-level navy, also put on a posture of not cooperating. In addition to the assistance of the old warships, the main force of the Second Fleet directly left Lushun Port, Kantung Prefecture, and began cruising around the Bohai Bay area as required by the navy, posing as a tiger looking at Qingdao Island.
