Anti-Japanese heroic righteousness

A lieutenant staff officer stood up and said, "Your Excellency, the subordinates don't think this means anything. Tuba Road's activities in this area have lasted for more than a day or two, and the imperial army has also concentrated its forces to carry out two large-scale encirclement campaigns, both of which have achieved great results." However, their sabotage activities have never stopped, but this time it is even worse. As for the troops in the fifth theater of the Chongqing government army, I think it is just a coincidence. Even if it is a forced order from their military committee, every battle is basically avoided if it can be avoided, and if it cannot be avoided, they will take the method of delaying, so they will never take the initiative to launch a large-scale attack on the imperial army."

As soon as the lieutenant commander of the Japanese army finished speaking, a senior officer stood up and said, "My subordinates also agree with Mr. Noda. General Li, the commander of the Gui army, has always been as timid as a mouse, and the troops he leads are poorly equipped and poorly trained. , It is simply a group of mobs. Since the imperial army captured Wuhan, they have occupied eastern Anhui and have never launched an effective frontal attack on the imperial army. Of course, the imperial army also tacitly did not take any major military actions against them. According to reliable sources, not only did they treat the Imperial Army in the same way, they also treated the Tuba Road in the same way, adopting a strategy of non-aggression. There is also news that the troops under the Gui Army have fought more than one battle with our Imperial Army troops. It was an exchange of weapons and supplies, but this time, the subordinates thought that the Gui Army must have reached some kind of agreement with the Eighth Route Army, and they were thinking of going to the arms and supplies warehouse of the Imperial Army in Madian. The Gui Army bluffed in Xinyang, Jingzhou, and Suizhou to contain the imperial army in Xinyang The troops to the west will buy time for the Eighth Route Army to attack Zhumadian."

"Yoxi!" Ananwei nodded several times and said, "What Noda-kun and Gongze-kun said has some truth. A while ago, Tuba Road cut off the railway from Zhumadian to Xinyang, which caused our [-]th Army's autumn supplies, All the weapons are stranded in Zhumadian, it seems that they are really worried about this batch of arms and supplies, otherwise it really can’t explain their intentions, Mr. Kinoshita, don’t you think so?”

As Anan said, he turned his eyes to Kinoshita Yu who was beside him, but Kinoshita frowned as if he had never heard of it, and seemed to have other thoughts, maybe because he felt that the atmosphere in the room was not right, he suddenly looked up and found that everyone was looking at him , then turned his face to Ananwei and said: "Ananjun, I don't think this matter is so simple. If Jiang Haoran did not come back, maybe there is nothing wrong with thinking about it this way, but now there is definite news from the special high school to prove that Jiang Haoran has Back in Nanchang, this matter cannot be treated so simply."

Ananwei thought for a while, and said: "This should not have any connection with Jiang Haoran, right? Since Jiang Haoran came back, the imperial army's reconnaissance planes have not relaxed their aerial reconnaissance, and the special high school has not sent back There is news about the abnormal transfer of their troops, besides, it is possible for him, Jiang Haoran, to threaten Huangshan, but he will not be able to transfer the fifth theater, right?"

Seeing Anan's insistence, Isamu Kinoshita did not refute, nodded slightly, and said: "Just now, Mr. Gong Ze's evaluation of the troops and leaders of the Guangxi faction was biased. General Li is definitely not as timid as a mouse, afraid of the enemy On the contrary, he is thoughtful and good at fighting, and he has Bai Chongxi who is called 'Little Zhuge' by his side, these two people are definitely not kind, you must not take it lightly."

Miyazawa, who had just spoken, stood up and said, "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, do you think highly of them? You must know that the Guangxi army has nearly 20 people. Since the start of the war, there have been battles in Songhu, Xuzhou, and Wuhan. Their figure, but their performance has always been mediocre, and it can even be said to be very poor, and during the truce, they always shy away from the imperial army, doesn't it explain the problem?"

Kinoshita smiled wryly, and said: "What you said is not wrong, but this does not prove anything. The war broke out in an all-round way. Although General Li shouted 'Scorched Earth War of Resistance', he shouted it for others to see. In fact, he did not The determination and even the courage to fight to the death with the imperial army was caused by factional disputes in the Chongqing government. They all hoped to preserve their own strength and let their faction opponents fight the imperial army to the death. Therefore, it is possible to quickly occupy more than half of China. There are many factors in this aspect. However, it would be a big mistake to judge the enemy's combat effectiveness by such factors. Yes, the equipment of the Guangxi Army is inferior to that of the Central Army. But it is still much higher than Tubalu, Sichuan Army, etc. In terms of quality, they are really not as bad as we imagined, especially the Seventh Army of the Gui Army, which is very famous, known as the "Seventh Army of Steel", and they are Li Bai. The housekeeping troops of the Guangxi Clique are not only the aces of the Gui Clan troops, but also the elite of the national army. They are good at mountain warfare and are famous for close combat at night. They have strong combat effectiveness and flexible tactics. During the Northern Expedition, they There was a famous battle called "Battle of Hesheng Bridge". The Seventh Army fought side by side with the Ye Ting Independent Regiment, and defeated Wu Peifu's elite division. Wu Peifu tried his best, and the Broadsword team cut down 7 regiments and 2 brigades With a long head, Wu also killed a few deserters. But he couldn't stop the Northern Expeditionary Army's charge. In the afternoon, the 7th Army of the Guangxi Clique, who were red-eyed, charged at the place where the Wu Army's gunshots were the most dense. Facing the fierce An enemy who is not afraid of death, the Wu army was defeated all the way. Tens of thousands of people launched a countercharge against the superintendent's team, rushing past and fleeing for their lives. Wu Peifu's adjutant was also killed in the rebellion. Wu Peifu, the direct leader, known as Chang General Sheng. This battle brought his political life to an end. There was also a famous "Battle of Longtan", which was also the 7th Army's desperate and continuous charge, and took the commanding height of Nanjing City, Qixia Mountain at the expense of heavy casualties, and then launched a counterattack. Victory with less, the tens of thousands of Sun Chuanfang's desperate troops who were fighting to the death were oppressed in the area east of Baguazhou and gathered for annihilation. After seven days and seven nights of bloody battles, the corpses of Sun Chuanfang's [-] troops were scattered all over the field, and they were defeated and fled.

Speaking of this, Isamu Kinoshita glanced at the audience, saw that everyone was silent, took a sip of tea from his cup, and continued: "Maybe you think this is all history, and it doesn't explain what happened, then I will return it." Tell you about a battle, a battle between the Seventh Army and the Imperial Army, the Battle of Wuxing in the Battle of Songhu, when the elite troops of the Imperial Army landed from Jinshanwei, Hangzhou Bay, and the Tenth Army, the main force, went straight to Fengjing and Pingjing soon after landing. Wang and Jiaxing tried to cut off the retreat of the Chinese defenders in the Battle of Songhu, and were blocked by the Seventh Army when they reached Wuxing?????? Speaking of this, Isamu Kinoshita seemed to suddenly think of something, turned to Anan Yuji and continued : "By the way, I remember that it was Ananjun who commanded this battle at that time, right? "
