Chapter 646: Nightmare of Yasha
"It's it, it must be it. The nightmare that caused the empire to suffer a crushing defeat in Nanjing did not leave." Takeo Imai angrily threw everything on the table.
"Chief of the Institution"
Shame is more than just shame, it is simply humiliation!
He is the head of the second section of the General Staff of the Central China Front Army and the head of the intelligence agency in the central China region. He made such a big mistake and failed to figure out where the Honorary First Division was, but instead let his opponent cheat him!
Whatever the adjustments are done in Wuhan are all lies, lies!
He didn't leave at all!
The Great Japanese Empire was made fun of, like a stupid monkey, making funny moves, but in people's eyes, it was ridiculous and stupid.
What's worse is that the person who uncovered the secret is not the intelligence department.
"Chief of the Organization, Commander Toshiro Hata, please come and have a meeting right away!" After smashing it angrily, Takeo Imai received a notice from Toshiro Hata, asking him to go to the headquarters for a meeting.
He knew that the following meeting was probably the most difficult and painful one for the Central China Expeditionary Army in a month.
The enemy played a trick under his nose and hid it, but he didn't know at all, and the losses and consequences caused were indeed immeasurable.
This was obviously a premeditated action. China's confidentiality work was done so well, it was simply a waste of water. But where did their "Honor First Division" resting in Wuhan come from?
On the way to the meeting, Takeo Imai carefully analyzed the information he had obtained in his hands, and gradually a guess came to his mind.
The person who made this plan to cross the sky is simply a genius. According to common sense, such a unit is always concerned wherever it goes, and it is unlikely to completely hide its traces.
However, China's military organization is chaotic, and in wartime, many times, even they themselves cannot figure out the whereabouts of the troops, and it is hard to say the enemy.
Also, such a huge plan must be coordinated by Wuhan, and there will be no more insiders in the matter. He must convince these people to keep it absolutely confidential. First of all, one person must fully support him.
Needless to say, this person is Chairman Jiang!
After convinced this person, the work below will be easier.
The city was in the city, the speech was given, and then the Luojia Mountain generals were arranged to study, without any flaws. Then, his deputy and some important generals in the army appeared.
All information shows that Leng Feng, the soul of the Honorary First Division, is in Wuhan, and he disappeared after only showing up. That is because of the rules of the Luojia Mountain Officer's Corps closed down to study.
In this way, no one knows whether others are learning in it.
His troops were divided into two, and the main force quietly turned towards the Xuzhou area, entered the islands in Weishan Lake and hiding, while other troops with weak combat power drove into Wuhan to rest and make a move.
The intelligence department has never had a clear number of troops in the Honorary First Division. Therefore, the total number of troops in the Honorary First Division withdrew from Wuhan to rest was 10,000 or 20,000.
If there are real people, no one suspects that the Honor Division has used an open plank road to secretly travel to Chencang, and quietly keeping the main force.
In Wuhan, the Fifth War Zone cooperated with this Leng Feng to perform a big drama for the two Japanese troops in Central China and North China to watch, and they were completely kept in the dark until a few hours ago.
Thinking of this, Takeo Imai felt a biting pain.
Now that I think about it, it’s too late to regret it, and a big mistake has been made, the most important thing is how to restore the current situation.
Although this matter has little to do with the Central China Front Army, if the strategic task of encircling and annihilation of the main force in Xuzhou area fails, they will not be able to escape.
He was also responsible for the intelligence work of the Honorary I Division. He could not find out such important information in advance, so his responsibility must be pursued.
Takeo Imai could already imagine what kind of face he would be like when Shin-Ruda Hata would give him.
In comparison, the Second Army Command, which received this news, was panicked. If the elite central unit in Jining and Yanzhou was the Honorary Division, it would be a big trouble.
Although the North China Front Army was still somewhat suspicious of the "mythical" record of this force, they also learned some of the situation from the 13th and 16th Divisions that were rebuilt by the withdrawal country.
This Chinese army is indeed very capable, the commander is very powerful, and can always appear under your unexpected situation. It has strong control over the battlefield, has a strong sense of rapid offensive and defensive transformation, and has a good individual tactics, especially the tactical level of street fighting. The most important thing is that their fighting will not be inferior to any imperial army!
This was a temporary pieced together army for a month before. Because they were all composed of veterans, and what they saw and heard in Nanjing, they did not do anything for others, but also for themselves, so the combat power they burst out was amazing.
After Leng Feng's careful sorting, he removed the drought and preserved the essence, and strictly enforced military discipline, he achieved the current honorary First Division.
Now such an elite force suddenly appeared and captured the Japanese army's retreat route south to Jinpu Road. How serious is the consequence? What's more, the Segu Detachment in Taierzhuang was besieged by more than 100,000 troops!
Moreover, the situation has tended to deteriorate, and Setani Kei sent several telegrams to seek help a day.
The No. 84 combat order of the base camp was issued, and the news of this fatality jumped out. The Chief of Staff of the North China Front Army Naosaburo Okabe was actually opposed to the plan for the Xuzhou battle formulated by the base camp.
He believed that the Segu Detachment in Taierzhuang was surrounded by the Segamiya detachment could not last long, and the best choice was to break through immediately, so that part of the strength of the 10th Division could be preserved.
The army encircled Xuzhou area will inevitably lengthen the Japanese army's display, insufficient troops, and supply will become difficult. However, some generals do not think so, thinking that a Japanese soldier can rival seven or eight Chinese soldiers.
Maybe on the battlefield, but if it is defense, how big can a person defend?
This battle plan was unrealistic, so he supported the Second Army's plan to join Xuzhou, opening up the Jinpu Road and connecting Central and North China into one, which was a pragmatic approach.
His idea was also recognized by some people, but it is no longer a mainstream opinion. Now he has to take over the battle situation in Taierzhuang. It is meaningless to simply reinforce, and there is no time to go through, so he can only make strategic adjustments.
If the squadron that appeared in Jining and Yanzhou area was not the Honorary Division, then everything would be fine. Even if it was Tang Keqin's army, there was no need to worry.
After all, they all fought each other and they still have some understanding of each other.
But although this Honorary First Division has not fought, none of the Japanese troops that fought against each other have made good use of it. The Honorary First Division advocates offensive tactics, and is also good at layout, has a very fierce fighting style, and is flexible in tactics, and is completely free from the rigidity and conservativeness of other troops.
You don’t know what will happen to such an army next, and you can’t make predictions.
If the base camp really wants to cut off the road for the troops in Xuzhou to retreat west by cutting off the Longhai Railway line, it may not be possible now.
This plan must defeat the Honorary First Division, recapture Yanzhou and Jining, and also capture western Shandong and close the passage of western Shandong to eastern Henan.
Otherwise, even if the Central China Front Army cuts off the Longhai Railway Line, it will be difficult to achieve the expected goals.
Even if the 14th Division of the First Army crossed the Yellow River south, fought smoothly, and met with the Central China Front Army successfully, it might not be able to form an encirclement of the Fifth War Zone.
With the variable of Honor Division, this encirclement plan is likely to be just a broken sieve and will not work at all.
These views are suspected of strengthening others' ambitions and destroying their own majesty. Now they cannot be responded to within the Japanese army. At least none of the arrogant generals felt that this plan would fail.
There were many generals who shouted to defeat the Honorary Division and cut off the cold front's head.
The most painful thing is Setani Kei. His defense circle is increasingly fighting on terrain with unfavorable defense, and every minute feels so long!
The order Isotani Ryosuke gave him was the four words "stay and wait for help".
There were reinforcements, but they couldn't get through. In just five kilometers, the thousands of Japanese troops who came to support were blocked. They fought fiercely for a day and night, and they didn't even move their butts, and there were heavy casualties.
Jining, it’s past one o’clock in the morning.
"The teacher's seat is not resting yet?"
"I can't sleep. Although we bombed Dawenkou Airport, the Japanese army could still mobilize planes from other regions to come quickly. The Taierzhuang battle cannot be delayed for too long, otherwise it will be increasingly unfavorable to us." Leng Feng said worriedly.
"Yes, Japan is an industrialized country. If the plane is gone, they can build it immediately. If we can't do it, we can only ask others to buy it. If we can't buy the most advanced ones, we will suffer a lot!" Xie Jiyuan sighed. He has been with Leng Feng these days, and his thinking and vision have been much higher. Many of the ideas he had insisted on are changing, and he is increasingly aligned with some of the practices of Leng Feng, the commander.
It turns out that he can always win one and one with honor.
"Master, based on the encryption algorithm about Zimi you provided, we have deciphered a part of the telegram from the Tokyo Base Camp in Japan. Take a look." Xue Ping came out of the telecommunications office.
"Go in and see!" Leng Feng couldn't sleep and came out to breathe.
"Operation No. 84" Leng Feng saw this passage, his brows instantly tightened. If the order had not changed, he would know the content very clearly.
Now that the Taierzhuang Battle has not been completed, the Japanese base camp has issued this combat order, so it might as well make such a construction.
The Japanese army's use of troops in China has reached an unsustainable point, and it has become unrealistic to directly reinforce Taierzhuang. They can only adjust their strategy and start from other directions to rescue the trapped Seya Ki.
At the same time, changing the current adverse situation becomes beneficial to oneself.
It seems that under such unfavorable circumstances, the Japanese not only have their appetites not changed, but have become bigger, which also shows that the 14th Japanese division in Puyang will soon take action.
