The Fourth Disaster, Starting from the Movie Eight Hundred

After meeting the emperor, Hirohito first expressed his dissatisfaction with the situation in Northeast China, but did not mention a word about the fact that Ueda Kenkichi came back to see the emperor at this time. Ueda Kenkichi felt relieved.

Faced with the choice between the inevitable loss of Northeast China and the evacuation of the Kwantung Army, Hirohito chose to evacuate the Kwantung Army.

It’s just that he is not convenient to speak directly, and he needs someone to speak for him and share his worries.

Kenkichi Ueda first bowed 90 degrees, tears streaming down his face as he expressed that he had failed to live up to the expectations of His Majesty and had failed to defend the lifeline of Manchuria and Mongolia in the empire. After the performance was almost over, he changed the subject and brought the topic to the issue of whether the Kwantung Army should stay or go.

"Your Majesty, Manchuria and Mongolia can no longer be defended, but we still have other options!"

"explain."

"The vast Pacific and Indian Oceans still hold endless benefits for the Empire. Taiwan is now in our hands. As long as we take action against the already declining Europe, the Empire still has a chance to make a comeback."

"You mean, support the navy's southward attack?"

"I am seeking a more hopeful future for the empire."

On the issue of the army versus the navy, Kenkichi Ueda would not make any principled mistakes.

Japanese version of Land and Sea Battle (funny).

Hirohito nodded expressionlessly.

The next topic is how the Kwantung Army evacuated the Northeast and how Japan moved south. After all, the navy's warships could not land, and the army was still needed to effectively occupy and control the colonies. At present, Japan's most elite forces were all stationed in the Northeast, and they could not go all in.

But it is impossible for the emperor to issue an edict to withdraw from the Northeast. The blame must not be borne by the emperor. Ueda Kenkichi must bear it honestly, but the imperial government will protect him in an official way.

To put it simply, Japan's official mouthpieces will focus on promoting how Kenkichi Ueda judged the situation, moved swiftly, and preserved the main force of the Kwantung Army under heavy disadvantages, allowing Japan to still have a huge strategic advantage. In short, it is still a winning strategy.

It sounds a bit self-congratulatory and hypnotic, but no matter how you win, I define it as winning, so I win.

As long as the entire Japanese official media is exaggerating this, the vast majority of Japanese people will feel that it is really not easy for Kenkichi Ueda to persevere under such circumstances. He is a pillar of the empire!

As for what the Kwantung Army thought, were they unhappy to have survived? Or did they think they still had the courage to face the Volunteer Army?

The strong combat capability of the Volunteer Army gave the Japanese government a way out and also prevented those young groups who always liked to "punish traitors from heaven" from getting stronger on this matter.

What are you looking at? Weren’t you being beaten like a dog by the volunteer army on the battlefield in China?

We are all on the same side of the road, so don't make fun of anyone else and embarrass yourself.

Speaking of the current situation of the Kwantung Army, when they really retreat, the Japanese officers and soldiers will only breathe a sigh of relief and thank the commander for his ability to judge the situation. However, it is difficult for people to accept that the problems after failure are attributed to themselves, so the Kwantung Army will invisibly begin to defend Kenkichi Ueda's decision and blame the problems on the enemy being too strong, rather than their own lack of effort.

In this way, those who want to take action against Ueda Kenkichi for some reason will have to think twice, which can ensure that Ueda Kenkichi himself will not be thrown out as a target to vent anger after doing things for His Majesty the Emperor.

Both public and private issues have been resolved satisfactorily, and we can start the next plan.

Chapter 82: Tokyo Express, but land transfer version

(Second update! No rest today, continue updating, squeeze out every ticket for urging more updates!)

"Manchuria and Mongolia are the lifeline of the empire. We will fight to the last man and never give in!"

The above is the public speech delivered by Kenkichi Ueda after he returned to Northeast China. He was so majestic and vowed to live and die with Manchuria and Mongolia.

At the same time, the number of puppet troops in the puppet state of Manchukuo also expanded to an unprecedented level. Although the weapons they were equipped with were not wanted by the Japanese army, they did look strong. Countless old men shouted "Long live the empire", and it was a "touching" scene that they were willing to fight to the death for the glory of the empire.

No matter how you look at it, this looks like the Japs are determined to fight to the death.

"Cunning little devils, they are trying to run away."

Liu Qi could not hide the changes in Japan. He didn't even need to monitor it specifically. He could see the clues just by the troop movements of the Northeast Army.

Although the Japanese Kwantung Army seemed to be supporting the front line at this time, the number of Japanese troops on the front line was actually decreasing. More and more puppet Manchukuo troops were filling the gaps and became line-filling babies. The withdrawn Japanese troops were not transferred to Shenyang to assist in the defense, but moved towards North Korea.

Considering that the Japanese certainly did not have the ability to fight a desperate battle like Han Xin when facing the Volunteer Army, there was only one possibility for them to do so, that is, to withdraw from the Northeast and move to North Korea. Even Japan was ready to give up North Korea.

However, if some words are said in Japan, they will be punished by God and regarded as traitors. Even the Japanese emperor cannot afford the price of giving up the Northeast, so he can only shout for war and killing on the surface, but start to evacuate in private.

Liu Qi also noticed that Japanese newspapers began to reveal some negative remarks that had never appeared before.

These included statements such as "the Kwantung Army suffered huge losses", "the Volunteer Army's terrifying combat effectiveness", and "advancement is one of the empire's strategies". Compared with directly admitting failure, this statement was so euphemistic that it was a bit bland, but it still caused an uproar in Japan. After all, since the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, Japan has embarked on a win-win-win path, and has expanded like a pufferfish. Now, it has suddenly been beaten back to a circle by an electric cannon. Under the inertia of past thinking, it will definitely be incompetent and furious, and will find every reason to shift the blame to what they think is right.

They couldn't afford to offend the Volunteer Army, but there were definitely "non-citizens" in the country who were hindering the empire.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, a new round of anti-communist sentiment was launched in Japan, which was also a way to divert attention.

But the situation on the front line will not improve because of the Japanese government's tossing and turning and performance. On the contrary, it will collapse even faster.

The puppet troops filled the line to block the volunteers who had already developed strong muscles. Do you want to die or not? Even those puppet troops could not withstand the mortar salvos of the volunteers. There were constant desertions before the battle began, and they collapsed at the first touch after the battle began. The main task of the volunteers became capturing prisoners all over the mountains.

In this situation, people are indeed harder to catch than pigs.

With the collapse of these puppet troops, the amount of weapons held by civilians in the Northeast region also began to soar, and the number of Hu (local) bandits in various places also soared. This caused the volunteer army to have to stop for a while to clear out these "mountain eagles" that were all over the mountains while pursuing them, which successfully slowed down the advance.

"Comrades are really capable of making trouble."

Liu Qi looked at the location of Japan on the world map. There were thirty players taking action there, but they were very low-key and only made some noise in the rural areas of Japan. Local officials had not yet realized the seriousness of the situation.

However, these people are planning to do something big recently, and Japan will probably be in a state of panic three times a day.

Japan was frightened by the bombers visiting its homeland, but when volunteers began to appear on the Japanese homeland, that was fear.

Looking forward to the interesting response from the Japanese government.

The Japanese Kwantung Army was already in a dead end. Anyone with a discerning eye knew what would happen next. Naturally, the traitors also began to look for their own way out.

"Please rest assured, the empire will not abandon its meritorious officials."

"Thank you, sir. This is just a small gift, not a token of respect."

"Yo Xi~"

Although the situation had become extremely corrupt, there were still some people who could make a lot of money, such as the generals of the Kwantung Army. They had the vehicle resources needed for evacuation, and even airplanes and ships. These people naturally became the objects of flattery by the powerful people of the puppet Manchukuo.

These people had been tied to Japan for a long time. After the Volunteer Army liberated Harbin, they started the reckoning of local devils and traitors with the death penalty. The shooting range was as lively as firecrackers every day, and they were just short of executing people with machine guns. More than 10,000 people were immediately executed at the public trial, and more than 200,000 were sent to labor camps. It was like uprooting leeks. Many of the old and young people who were left behind were directly deleted from the family tree. Even if someone overturned their verdict in the future, it would be useless because they were all dead.

In order to avoid being physically exterminated, they really have no choice but to continue clinging to the Japanese like dogs.

Is there no one who surrenders to the National Government?

Yes, and the Kuomintang also accepted their fate, but it was useless. After the volunteers rushed in, even if they showed these things, they could not save their lives. On the contrary, they would die more miserably, because the volunteers tacitly accepted that the Kuomintang were all garbage, garbage and traitors. If you don’t die, who will? Drag you out and bury you immediately, and throw your heads down into the fertilizer pond to ferment!

Crying to the heavens and the earth, but no one answered. This is what the traitors of Manchukuo were talking about.

The reason why it was not cleaned up thoroughly back then was because of historical issues. Only by cleaning it up thoroughly now can we be worthy of the future New China.

The Volunteer Army will not wrongly accuse good people in its purge. No one who deserves to die will escape. Anyone who dares to exaggerate will be arrested and killed together. Do you really think I have no evidence?

The senior generals of the Japanese army accepted the "gifts" from these traitors with peace of mind. As for whether these people could leave with the Japanese army and escape, that was not their concern. Although we took the money, there was no guarantee that we would do anything. As a dog, why do you ask your master to fulfill his promise?

Some of the smarter traitors chose not to escape, but they could not escape for long, because after the Volunteer Army swept across the Northeast, it would definitely attack the Greater Khingan Range, Korea and Beijing, completely wiping out all the Japanese forces in China. The next step would be to deal with the Kuomintang, recover Taiwan and other territories, and ensure the integrity of the historical map of New China.

The fighting will definitely be intense during this period, and no one will be able to escape.

However, Japan is not completely without any victory, at least they still have a diplomatic victory to show off. -p

This so-called diplomatic victory meant that the Soviet Union tacitly agreed to a temporary alliance with Japan. It was just an alliance, and the two sides did not sign any written treaty, but the Soviet army in Vladivostok would act together with the Japanese army.

Because the Volunteer Army had already rushed to Suifenhe and had no intention of stopping, it was obvious that the next target would be Vladivostok. The Soviet Union contacted the Red Party again and again, asking them to defend the Soviet Union, but the Red Party turned the table directly and publicly announced that the Soviet revisionists had invaded China, and China was counterattacking in self-defense!

what happened?

It's nothing, Liu Qi just went there to deliver some things, which was considered to be establishing contact with the Red Party. Through the simplest economic help, the Red Party would not listen to the Soviet Union. The Soviet faction within the Red Party had already lost its voice in Zunyi that year and only had some influence. Now Liu Qi just slammed five tons of gold on the ground, and there was no problem. The Red Party took a step forward to independence.

The fundamental reason why many political parties were unable to be independent was that they were too poor. With the assistance from the Volunteer Army, which was the kind of assistance that would not ask for help from a father, the Red Party naturally kicked the Soviet Union aside.

It's not about being ungrateful. It's because apart from the limited help in the early stages, the Soviet Union as a whole had a negative impact on the development of the Chinese Red Party. Maybe Su Cizong really understood it, but the people below always went astray in implementing it. The problem of the emperor being far away also existed in the Soviet Union. For the young Red Party, any Soviet cadre, or even any international friend, could easily have a huge influence within the party organization.

This was proven during the Jinggangshan period.

At this point, the Soviet Union's important influence on China was directly severed, and the volunteer army was overwhelmingly powerful in the war situation. For the sake of the Soviet Far East and the double-headed eagle will inherited from Tsarist Russia, the Soviet Union had only one option left, which was to unite with Japan.

They would like to have other options, but what can people do when they are forced into a corner? They don't have the ability to break out of the wall.

"Vladivostok, I see Vladivostok!"

Rocket was hovering over Vladivostok in a reconnaissance plane. His main mission this time was to open the map.

The volunteer army, which had begun to clean up the battlefield in the Northeast, needed a new enemy, and the Soviet army in Vladivostok was the new target.

This was the Soviet Union's most important ice-free port and naval base in the Far East, and the core base of the Pacific Fleet. In 1930, the Soviet Union strengthened its Far Eastern defenses, primarily around Vladivostok, by building railways, deploying additional troops, and replenishing equipment. The primary deterrent at the time was still Japan.

Of course, it was merely a deterrent, relying solely on the few shabby ships in Vladivostok to confront the Japanese Combined Fleet was somewhat foolish. If a real battle broke out, it would only be a harassment and surprise attack, with limited results. This can be seen from the types of naval vessels in Vladivostok: they were mainly submarines, destroyers, and auxiliary ships. There was no thought of a fleet battle with Japan.

But in terms of land defense, they are very generous, with hundreds of tanks and a similar number of aircraft. Although many of them are old, they are still a force that cannot be ignored in the Far East.

And now, whether they are ready or not, they have to face the armored impact of the Volunteer Army.

"I'm Rocket. The map is ready. Let's go down and test Vladivostok's air defenses. Let's go!"

Chapter 83: Three Fronts, Successive Victories

(Third update, 10,000 words reached! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Does anyone have a monthly ticket? (*?ω?))

After the rocket test, Vladivostok's air defense was inferior to Chita's.

After all, this is one of the Far Eastern ends of the Soviet Union. The difficulty of transporting to Chita is not on the same level as transporting to Vladivostok, and it is still winter now.

The winter operations of the Volunteer Army put both the Japanese and Soviet armies in a difficult position. They were forced to withstand the environmental debuff, and more than 100,000 people were killed due to frostbite. The worst hit were the puppet troops of Manchukuo. The Japanese army didn't care whether they would be frozen to death or not. Many times they made them defend the line and set up supervision teams to force them to stay in the trenches 24 hours a day (a semi-underground structure, only the shallow layer above could be dug, and then sacks were piled up for defense).

In this situation, the puppet army certainly did not dare to make a fire, as the volunteer army's artillery shells would hit them accurately. They could only try their best to prevent themselves from freezing to death, such as shivering to keep warm. Even so, when the volunteer army launched a charge, they could still see puppet soldiers curled up in many trenches who were frozen to death.

This is the tragic outcome of leaving the city and fighting the volunteers in the field.

Chita is now crumbling, and there is no point for the Soviet Union to be anxious. The situation in Vladivostok is even worse because the supplies shipped from Europe can no longer reach here. Now Vladivostok's supplies and transportation all rely on Japanese assistance.

Look at how much pressure the Volunteer Army put on Japan and the Soviet Union, forcing them to band together for warmth.

However, when you open the map at this time, not to mention Japan and the Soviet Union, all other countries gasped.

From Chita to the Northeast, and then to Vladivostok, the Volunteer Army has three battle lines. Are you playing in Chenghai here?

But when looking at the two countries that were beaten, the combat effectiveness of the volunteer army was so terrifying that it made people gasp.

"Mu Da Mu Da, Vladivostok's defense is really amazing. Comrades who are flying bombers, come and grab some fries. Vladivostok is a big stage, and fries are everywhere."

The gap between Vladivostok's anti-aircraft guns and soldiers and Chita's is like the gap between the US military, which is used to fighting security battles, and the US military at home. They won't break at the slightest touch, but they are certainly not that strong.

Anyway, the rockets were conducting ultra-low-altitude horizontal reconnaissance and were only hit a few times by anti-aircraft machine guns.

What kind of air defense level is this? If it was Chita's air defense, I would have become an infantryman long ago.

After testing the true capabilities of the enemy in Vladivostok, the Volunteer Air Force quickly came to score points. The first to bear the brunt was still the classic Stuka, but there was also the Kunpeng bomber (B-17) in the sky.

Anti-aircraft guns and Soviet fighter planes that took off urgently turned the sky of Vladivostok into Guangxi during the Spring Festival, but the battle-hardened players didn't care about this level of anti-aircraft firepower at all. Those Stukas rushed towards the Soviet anti-aircraft gun positions like hungry tigers pouncing on sheep. Less than ten minutes after the battle started, the Soviet anti-aircraft guns were almost silent. The players then rushed towards the ports, warehouses, oil depots and barracks of Vladivostok.

This city, which had never suffered any blow in the history of World War II, groaned in pain with each explosion. The transformation before rebirth is always painful, but it will be fine after returning home.

When the Volunteer Army began to bomb Vladivostok, the Battle of Changchun also came to an end.

More than 500,000 Japanese and puppet troops were wiped out, most of whom were puppet troops. Many Japanese troops ran away without saying a word after the puppet troops took over. Now these troops are rushing towards the Yalu River.

"Liberation! We liberated Changchun!"

The officers and soldiers of the Volunteer Army gave deafening cheers. With the liberation of the second major city in Northeast China, the liberation of the entire Northeast China has entered the countdown. Everyone knows that the next target of the Volunteer Army will definitely be Shenyang.

However, the system tasks stopped the players' offensive and instead began to issue combat missions towards Vladivostok and Chita.

This was of course the result of Liu Qi's behind-the-scenes manipulation. He deliberately let the Japanese army go and let the Japanese army carry out their southward attack strategy.

After losing the Northeast, the Japanese government, which was already in a state of economic crisis, had to move south to divert domestic conflicts, otherwise they would implode. If the fascist countries did not want to be eliminated by the revolution, they could only continue to launch wars of aggression and drain resources from other regions to ease internal conflicts. If Japan did so, it would inevitably come into conflict with the old imperialist countries. The damage to the Asian region would be devastating, but it would also undermine the traditional imperialist Asian colonial order.

Then New China can follow behind and take over these. Anyway, judging by the anthropomorphic behavior of the Japanese devils, the local population will soon disappear like snowflakes, and it would be a waste if the remaining land is not used for farming. We are making full use of resources and cannot bear to see good land being wasted.

This is equivalent to the volunteer army driving the Japanese like dogs, swallowing the dogs and then snatching back the land. As a result, the nature of land ownership has changed.

Yes, this used to be Vietnamese land, but the Japanese occupied your land, and then we took back the land that has been with us since ancient times. That means Vietnam has nothing to do with you locals at all. We seized it from the Japanese. If you can't accept it, you can hold a referendum. At that time, North Vietnam will join us, and the North Vietnamese who don't want to join will go to South Vietnam. You can decide whether to live together or continue to have one country with two halves. We will never interfere.

This actually means that all the lands within the largest influence radius of the Chinese cultural circle are included in the ancient history of the Chinese nation.

Objectively speaking, we have suffered a great loss. We will have to help the local people with poverty alleviation in the future. There is no other way. We are kind-hearted people. We have to bear some losses. I have said that those who cannot accept it can leave on their own. We will never stop them, but you can't have both.

I am reluctant to give up the land, but I don’t want to die either. This makes me feel very embarrassed┓( ??` )┏.

The above are all long-term plans. The most important thing at the moment is to build the Northeast Liberated Area first.

The aid from the Nanjing Liberated Area can accelerate the growth of the Northeast Liberated Area, allowing it to produce more points to feed back to the players. In order to participate in subsequent battles more happily, the players' enthusiasm for farming is high.

Land, divide!

Factory, build! -p

Repair the road!
