Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Everyone present showed expressions of surprise, Matsushita Taro asked cautiously: "General, is 100 million people too much? We now have 6 people in each division, and 100 million people need to gather [-] divisions, and now we only have nine divisions in the Kyushu area, that is to say, we have to mobilize seven divisions from other places, will the Supreme Command agree with your plan?"

Nogi Nozomi said: "I will discuss this matter with the Supreme Command in person. You don't have to worry. What you have to do now is to defend the front line of Mount Tianliang and prevent Lin Yuan's troops from continuing to attack in depth. You don't have to worry too much. Lin Yuan's troops will attack with all their strength, and they will definitely consolidate the rear."

Matsushita Taro said: "General, our Kyushu Island is surrounded by the sea, and there are many places for landing. In addition, Kyushu Island has a small terrain and lacks strategic depth. Once Lin Yuan's troops land, they can use outflanking and roundabout tactics to attack us. Army, I am worried that Lin Yuan's troops will land from other places."

Nogi Nozomi shook his head and said: "You don't have to worry about this. If Lin Yuan divides his forces to land, then his logistics supply system will have to be made into two sets, one for the current Fukuoka landing force to deliver supplies, and one for the other landing force Delivering supplies, this means that the difficulty of logistical supplies has doubled, so Lin Yuan's troops will no longer land from other places."

Matsushita Taro nodded, and Nogi Nozomi said, "Okay, I won't say much, I'm going to talk to General Aritomo of Yamagata on the phone."

After Nogi Nozomi finished speaking, he got up and walked out, came to the headquarters, and called Yutomo Yamagata. The news that Lin Yuan's troops landed and occupied Fukuoka had been sent to Yutomo Yamagata by telegram, so Yutomo Yamagata also knew Lin Yuan's troops occupied Fukuoka.

Nogi Nozomi said: "General Yamagata, I have come up with a plan to counterattack Lin Yuan's troops. I hope you can support me a lot."

Shanxian Youpeng asked, "What plan did you come up with?"

Nogi Xidian said: "I want to mobilize 100 million people to attack Lin Yuan's troops who have already landed on the island. I hope you will send troops over."

Youpeng from Shan County thought for a while and asked, "Why do you want to mobilize 100 million people?"

Nogi Nozomi said: "The Linyuan troops that have landed so far include the Seventh Mechanized Infantry Division, the No.30 Third Amphibious Combat Division, and the Central Front Army with a total of nearly 30 people. According to my experience in fighting against Linyuan troops in North Korea, we want to To defeat Lin Yuan's troops, we need three times as many troops as them, so I hope to mobilize 100 million troops."

"Lin Yuan's troops will be mobilized by sea, and they will go ashore on our land. They will be restrained by our militia, so the speed of action is definitely not as fast as ours. Our army of one million will definitely be assembled earlier than their central front army. , then our number ratio will definitely reach five to one or even more, and at that time we will surely win."

Shanxian Youpeng took a deep breath and said: "If you want to mobilize 100 million troops, the strength of Kyushu Island is far from enough. We must mobilize troops from other places so that we can fight with Lin Yuan's troops. It means a strategic decisive battle, do we really need to have a strategic decisive battle with Lin Yuan's troops?"

Nogi Nozomi said: "Senior Yamagata, I think it is necessary to conduct a strategic decisive battle! Lin Yuan's troops have just landed now, and they are not familiar with the terrain and social aspects. The people also have a sense of fear for them. The various spies we left behind It is too late to organize them to eliminate them, it is a good opportunity for us to concentrate our forces to eliminate them in one fell swoop."

"There is another more important reason why I want to engage in a strategic decisive battle: Lin Yuan's troops are very capable of demagoguery. In North Korea, Lin Yuan's troops relied on China's super agricultural production strength to distribute A lot of rice, flour, sugar, milk powder, and even some meat, which made many of our people betray the empire and throw themselves into the arms of China!"

"After Lin Yuan's troops occupied the Fukuoka area, they will definitely repeat the old tricks, distribute food to the people, and win the hearts of small and medium-sized citizens in the city; carry out land reform, distribute land to farmers, and win the hearts of farmers. If things go on like this, the people of the empire will inevitably Support Lin Yuan, support China, so we must make a quick decision and have a strategic decisive battle with the landing Lin Yuan troops!"

Shanxian Youpeng said: "Well, I promise you, I will hand over this matter to the Supreme Command for discussion, and I will also push for the approval of this plan at the meeting. Give you an answer."

Nogi Nozomi said: "Then please." After Nogi Nozomi said goodbye to Yutomo Yamagata, he called Mizuki Nagata and said, "To the 5th Division stationed in Sasebo, the 6th Division stationed in Kumamoto, and the Kitakyushu The 12th Division and the 13th Division stationed in Miyazaki Prefecture issued an order for them to gather troops and move towards Fukuoka.”

Mizuki Nagata agreed, and then said: "General, what about the 11th Division stationed in Kagoshima? Do you want to call them too?"

Nogi Nozomi asked: "How about the Ryukyu National Defense Force's offensive? Didn't the 11th Division repel many of their attacks?"

Mizuki Nagata said: "Yes, the 11th Division fought very bravely, and the Ryukyu National Defense Forces suffered heavy losses. The Ryukyu National Defense Forces' attack on Kagoshima had to come to an end, but they did not intend to stop there. According to our information, , Ryukyu King Shangtai has issued a conscription order across the country, preparing to mobilize a large number of troops to continue attacking Kagoshima."

Nogi Nozomi said: "In this case, don't mobilize the 11th Division. Let them deal with the attack of the Ryukyu National Defense Forces. If the Ryukyu National Defense Forces land from Kagoshima, the consequences will be very serious."

Mizuki Nagata nodded again and again, and sent orders to each unit. These five divisions plus the previous 101st, 102nd and 103rd divisions made up eight divisions. The eight divisions moved to Fukuoka at the same time. The attention of the intelligence personnel under him, they quickly gathered the information and sent it back to Beijing. At five o'clock in the evening on July [-]th, Shen Wanqing came to Lin Yuan's office with the information.

Although the amphibious combat division and the mechanized infantry division successfully landed in Fukuoka, Lin Yuan did not dare to relax in the slightest, because the latter matter was more difficult. First of all, he had to properly handle the relationship with the local people. When attacking North Korea, the people all helped Lin Yuan’s troops. In the eyes of the Japanese people, Lin Yuan’s troops were all invaders, aliens who wanted to enslave them. Under such circumstances, any friction between the army and the people would be like sparks falling in a powder keg Same, cause a big explosion!
