Age of Rebirth

Tang Qiuli's authorized teacher pointed out that the press office's public statement to the Japanese quickly spread and fermented in the Japanese mainland through a powerful broadcasting system. More than [-] artillery pieces and nearly [-] bombers slaughtered Yamagata Castle. It is a cruel fact that has to be admitted.

10,000+ Japanese citizens and more than [-] Japanese soldiers were all destroyed in more than an hour, and no one survived. This made all the Japanese shudder, and finally realized that the title of Tang Qiuli, the devil of China, was worthy of the name. , this is a cruel, cold-blooded, decisive person.

Especially this sentence, "If the Japanese commander in that city tries to drive civilians to fight our Chinese army, and the 10,000+ Japanese civilians and more than [-] Japanese soldiers in Yamagata City end up in the end, you will be punished!" It is not only a warning, but also deterrence.

The word "drive" is full of mystery. As far as the national character of the Japanese is concerned, there are not a few people who are willing to die for Emperor Hirohito. It is rooted in the bones of the Japanese. Otherwise, in history, they will not occupy the entire Northeast After the border, the whole country of Japan carnivaled, as if enjoying a feast of aggression by the whole nation, but in the face of the reality that a city will be destroyed, how long can this willingness last?

Tang Qiuli's public statement undoubtedly has the intention of dividing Japanese civilians and Japanese soldiers. It is a concrete manifestation of psychological tactics. Cannonballs and bombs, don't mind sending them to Amaterasu, now, the effect is showing.

The Jingzhan Banner Division of the No. 20 Ninth Corps of the Central Attack Group attacked westward, and the Tang Qiusheng Division of the Sulu Mobile Corps of the South Attack Force, followed by Shizuoka, Nagoya, Fukui, and Qibu in the western part of Honshu Island.And after joining forces in Qibu, the soldiers pointed directly at Kyoto, Osaka, Otsu, Nara, Wakayama and other places.

Deputy division commander Tang Qiusheng unified command of the two corps.A total of more than [-] troops, under the cover of powerful armored clusters and aerial firepower.Like a hurricane, it rushed towards the northwest of Honshu Island.

Groups of ground tanks, artillery vehicles and self-propelled artillery vehicles, roaring troop carriers, and fleets of aircraft in the sky covering the sky, with murderous aura and fighting spirit like a rainbow, the troops belonging to the headquarters of the defense zone in the northwest of the Japanese army's Honshu Island knew that a large number of Chinese soldiers were coming from behind. If the independent division does not stop this torrent.It is the passive situation where the enemy is on the back and the rear is cut off. Not only can the withdrawal to Tokyo be impossible, but there is also little hope of fighting to the death on the spot.

Lieutenant General Morita Takiro, Commander of the Northwest Defense Zone Headquarters of Honshu Island, is very conscious of this point. The only way to solve the crisis is to deploy enough troops from the battlefield to reinforce Kyoto, Osaka, Kobe, Otsu, Nara, Wakayama, etc. Ground, keep the channel to retreat to Tokyo, and.The commanders of the defense forces in the above-mentioned places did indeed send several telegrams a day, anxiously requesting reinforcements.

The idea is correct, but it suffers from being attacked by the Feng Jiwu Corps, the main force of the left-wing attack group of the independent division.The fierce attack launched involved all the troops, if the troops were deployed under such circumstances.It's almost like committing suicide, and he obviously has a good strategy in mind.However, due to the reality of the battlefield, it cannot be used.Lieutenant General Morita's depression can be imagined!

The commanders of the Japanese guard forces in Kyoto, Osaka, Otsu, Nara, Wakayama and other places were looking forward to reinforcements as if they were looking forward to their relatives. They hoped to see through their eyes, but what finally came was the armored torrent of the independent division of China and the huge fleet of aircraft in the sky. .

The soldiers pressed down on the border, standing on the commanding heights of the city, and the Japanese commanders in several cities holding binoculars to observe the situation, their hearts trembled, their hands trembled, and their murderous aura came rolling in, unstoppable, and destroying everything. The power of fear.

With the examples of Sendai and Fukushima, and the lesson that Yamagata Castle was slaughtered by artillery, the whole city could not survive. A few days later, the Japanese troops in Kyoto, Osaka, Kobe, Otsu, Nara and other places all chose to surrender. Of course, there are also some loyal Japanese officers and soldiers who are unwilling to put down their weapons and clamor for broken pieces of jade. However, this does not affect the overall situation, nor can it change the final result. The loyal Japanese officers and soldiers finally chose to commit suicide. Come to die for their Emperor His Majesty.

Only Wakayama Castle refused to surrender. Of course, Tang Qiusheng was not used to the temper of the Japanese. Without hesitation, he immediately ordered more than 7 large-caliber artillery pieces to surround Wakayama Castle. It took more than two hours. Over time, hundreds of thousands of shells blasted Wakayama into ruins and were completely wiped off the map. More than [-] Japanese civilians and [-] Japanese soldiers in the city were all buried in the artillery fire, and no one was spared!

Another ending of the massacre of the city appeared. After being widely broadcast by the Shizhi News Office, it became known to the Japanese again and made the Japanese even more fearful. Tang Qiusheng was also nicknamed the butcher by the Japanese.

Regarding this nickname, Tang Qiusheng, who has always been indifferent, just laughed it off, and then commanded the Sulu Mobile Corps and the No.20 Ninth Corps to establish a blocking position on the line from Kobe, Kyoto to Maizuru, completely cutting off the Japanese army from retreating to Tokyo. channel, and sent some troops to continue the westward attack,

So far, nearly 200 million Japanese soldiers on the battlefields in the northwest and northeast of Honshu Island have been firmly blocked to death in the current theater. destiny.

After receiving the report, Prince Zaihito, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Japanese Home Defense Command, once again stared straight at his office in Yokohama. Sendai, Fukushima, Kyoto, Osaka, Kobe, Otsu, Nara and other cities, Surrendering to the Chinese people one after another made him unexpected and even more unbelievable. How could the soldiers of the empire surrender when they were fighting on the mainland of the empire or resisting the aggression of the Chinese people?

The current Prince Zairen is not even in the mood to scold these Japanese for betraying His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire of Japan. He must consider how to withdraw nearly 200 million imperial soldiers from the two battlefields to the Tokyo area. Important capital, if these troops are lost, the Great Japanese Empire will really come to the end of its rope.

Prince Zain gave orders to Lieutenant General Morita, Commander of the Northwest Defense Zone Headquarters of Honshu Island, and Lieutenant General Yano Masaichi, Commander of the Northeast Defense Zone Headquarters, to resolutely break through the encirclement, ordering the troops belonging to the two defense zones to head towards Tokyo at any cost. Breakout, the current situation is that the retreat channel has been cut off, and the imperial troops are facing a situation of front and back attack, and the retreat can only evolve into a breakout.

As far as Prince Zairen's true thoughts are concerned, he does not have too much hope for this large-scale breakout operation. That China devil, Tang Qiuli, mobilized so many heavy troops to fight in both directions. , its purpose is obvious, and it will definitely not let go of the two largest heavy military groups in the empire.

Prince Zairen was full of helplessness and powerlessness in his heart. For the troops breaking out of the siege, sending troops to respond was naturally the safest way, but the more than [-] defense troops in the surrounding areas of Tokyo were the only ones in his hands. The only remaining capital is to protect Tokyo and the emperor's brother's last force, and he dare not use it.

Moreover, even if it is used, I dare not now. In the direction of Yokohama to the west of Tokyo, there are about 10 troops of the Independent China Division. With more than ten thousand troops, they can attack Kofu and Urawa on the outskirts of Tokyo at any time, directly threatening Tokyo.

Prince Zairen believed that if the defense forces around Tokyo were dispatched, there would be no return. Therefore, he could only pray for the blessing of God Amaterasu, and Morita and Yano's troops would break out as much as possible. Besides, he can't do anything.

One morning in mid-June, Tang Qiuli came to the headquarters as soon as the sky was bright. During this period of time, the campaign to attack the Japanese mainland went very smoothly, even better than expected. The surrender of several cities, many It was somewhat unexpected, and it also strengthened my own thoughts. When dealing with the Japanese, I have to kill them with fear and dare not resist!

The war progressed smoothly, and Tang Qiuli's sleep quality was quite good. When he got up, he felt refreshed. As soon as he picked up a telegram, Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe walked into the tent, looked at his face, and said with a smile: "Recently, the teacher's complexion is getting better and better!"

"That's natural, the Japanese are about to destroy the country, and my wish is coming soon, can I not sleep peacefully!" Tang Qiuli replied with a smile, "Yuhe, come early in the morning, what's the matter? "

"Yes!" Zhao Yuhe replied: "Received information from the Northern Flying Reconnaissance Air Force that the Japanese army on the battlefield in the northeast of Honshu Island is retreating across the board. It is estimated that around ten o'clock in the morning, the vanguard of the Japanese army will be about five divisions." A regiment of more than [-] people can reach the blocking positions of the troops directly under it!"

"In addition, the Japanese army on the battlefield in the northwest of Honshu Island also began to retreat on a large scale. According to the analysis of the staff office, the Japanese Homeland Defense Command must have issued a death order to these two parts of the Japanese army. The purpose of breaking out of the siege is to shrink its forces to Tokyo. area!"

"Okay!" Tang Qiuli laughed and said, "The wait is finally here. I see that Zai Ren is also at the end of his rope. Yuhe, what is the situation on the battlefields of Shikoku Island and Kyushu Island?"

"The progress is going well!" Zhao Yuhe replied: "Commander Han Tie and Commander Ma Chaoyang called respectively and are attacking the remaining Japanese troops. Among them, the Marine Corps is fighting fiercely with the Japanese troops in the Matsuyama area in the west of Shikoku Island. The Southeast Mobile Corps is fighting fiercely with the Japanese army on the front line of Kumamoto in the central part of Kyushu Island!"

"The two corps of our army have advantages in terms of military strength and firepower, and they have adopted a steady and steady strategy. The tactics of flat push on the front line, coupled with the limited area of ​​the above-mentioned two battlefields, the Japanese army has no room for maneuver and space to fully occupy Shikoku Island and Kyushu Island. ,Just a matter of time!"

"Han Tie and Ma Chaoyang, are they both playing smoothly? This is not their style!" Tang Qiuli commented.
