Chapter 1456: The world is shocked! (1)
ps: The second update, please give me a monthly ticket!
In the 21st year of the Republic of China, that is, on November 15, 1932, at 4:37 pm!
A battle report was placed in front of everyone who could receive him. [This article comes from]
This is a war report sent to the whole world in clear codes. All radio stations in this band can be received within the receiving range.
The content of the battle report is very short: Our Northeast Anti-Japanese and Democratic Alliance fought fiercely with the Japanese army for five days and nights, and at around 4:37 pm, the third brigade of the invading Japanese Second Division and the 11th brigade of the Sixth Division. In this battle, more than 4,000 Japanese soldiers were killed, and our army suffered roughly equal casualties. Zhengjiatun was defended!
Shortly after the war report was issued, the Harbin East Anti-Japanese Propaganda Department also issued an emergency notice that a new war situation briefing will be held at the Harbin International Hotel.
The reporters who heard this news were moved and flocked to him, instantly squeezing the press conference hall of Harbin International Hotel!
At the same time, a large number of reporters gathered in front of the Kwantung Army Command in Changchun, but at this moment, there was a lot of grief in the Kwantung Army Command. When hearing this news, all the Japanese officials in the command first reacted and did not believe it. Second, they were fear, fear of the unknown, fear of the future!
"How could this happen? How could this happen? How did Yokoyama Yuki, the stupid pig, command..." Koiki Aki's angry and hysterical roar resounded throughout the staff, which also confirmed the authenticity of this telegram sent to the whole world!
"What are you panic? What are you panic? This is just a defeat. It's not that the empire was completely defeated?" Muto Nobuyi appeared in the headquarters immediately to appease his subordinates' emotions.
In the huge headquarters conference room, the generals were not angry. It was like their parents were dead.
The loss of Tongliao can also be said to be the cunning of the enemy. It instigated the opposition elements in Tongliao City, and cooperated with the inside and outside, and the weak defense force was taken advantage of by the Chinese army.
But the 36th Brigade was almost encircled and annihilated. What does this mean in the Battle of Zhengjiatun?
"Commander, I think the biggest reason for this failure is not the mistake in Colonel Yokoyama's command. In fact, I read the battle report sent from the front line. I think Yokoyama's command is still remarkable and there is no mistake in principle!" Lieutenant General Sen Lian stood up and said.
"Oh. Mori Lianjun, what do you think?" Muto Nobuyoshi had a dark face. The most important thing now is to stabilize the morale of the army and regain confidence. If the morale of the army is in a loss, it will be a disastrous consequence.
"Our army is completely different from the different Chinese army. In the Northeast Army against Zhang Hanqing's Northeast Army, our army won consecutive battles and achieved brilliant results, which is obvious to all. However, when we fought against the enemies in the north, we were defeated again and again. They were all Chinese army, so why were there two completely different results?"
Lieutenant General Mori Lian's words made the generals and assistants present deeply feel the same!
"My garrison has also fought with Dongying. I have also read a lot of the battle reports and news collected below!" Lieutenant General Senlian said, "I found that before the war started, we didn't know our opponents, and even said we had no idea. This is one of them. Secondly, we underestimated the enemy. Our officers and soldiers looked down on the Chinese soldiers psychologically and thought they were weak. Some soldiers even thought that the Chinese soldiers could not even shoot. This is the reason for our failure!"
"Sen Lianjun, do you want to say that we underestimate the enemy?"
"Zheng Shijun, underestimating the enemy is only one aspect. The important thing is that we could have won the victory of this war, but because of the will of some people, the failure of this war!" Sen Lian said.
"Senlianjun, are you questioning the Commander's plan for the Rehe combat?"
"No, I support the Commander's Rehe combat plan, but if we did not fight against the East in advance, maybe they would not interfere in the Rehe Battle, and there would not be the current situation!" Sen Lian said.
"I acquiesced to attack the Dongkang material convoy, but the situation changed too quickly later, and it was too late for us to correct it!" Muto Nobuyoshi said, "I tried to pass a message to Dongkang through a third party, but they refused!"
"Actually, Dong Kang has no peace and sincerity towards us. Even if we don't move their material convoy, they will intervene in the Battle of Rehe!" Kenji Doihara said, "Commander, division commander and general, we launched the Battle of Rehe. The plan was very thorough and the launch was sudden. The Chinese might have noticed it, but their defense was limited. This is why we can advance quickly, while Dong Kang is different. They seemed to have been prepared. After we started, they launched some battles in Chifeng, Taonan, and the Changchun battle plan that deceived us. All of this shows that they had planned it!"
"According to the intention of Doihirahara, all our plans are under the control of our opponents?" Matsubu Naoki asked.
"As far as I know, the Chinese Army has a very efficient intelligence network and a counter-espionage department!"
"You are talking about their Intelligence Agency and Security Agency?"
"Yes, the Intelligence Bureau is responsible for external intelligence, while the Security Bureau is responsible for counter-espionage at the internal level. These two institutions have existed since the establishment of the Chinese Army's Eastern Anti-Japanese War. What does this mean?" Kenji Doihara was kept in a silence!
"Dohihara, don't keep it a secret, just say it!"
"We have always ignored the investigation of the Chinese military intelligence agencies, or we are too confident. In Manchuria, we used to fight miserably by the Soviets. No one is our opponent, but that's exactly what we are using. Maybe we are here today, and in a while, they will get the content of our meeting discussion. Who said what they know!" Kenji Doihara said.
"You're so alarmist, Doihara, the people here are all senior officers of the Imperial Japanese Army. No one will betray their motherland, right?"
"I just assumed that we didn't say that we have Chinese spies here. The most serious problem now is that our confidential information may be leaked in large quantities." Kenji Doihara said, "It's not you, but the people around you may not be bad. There are also many people with different beliefs in the Imperial Army!"
"Are you talking about red gcd?" Doihiro's words immediately caused the whispers of the audience to whisper.
"There are all senior imperial officers here. In winter, when the imperial interests are not betrayed, Doihara, let's get back to the topic!" Koiki Akira said.
"Hayi!"
"There is an old saying in China that you know yourself and your enemy and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles. This is very appropriate to use between the Empire and the East Anti. Our failure is certainly because the Empire underestimates the enemy, but it is simply that we do not understand our opponents. Lieutenant General Sen Lian said this very clearly, right?"
"Mr. Doihara is right. We don't know who they are and what tricks they will take to deal with us. This is the reason why we fail repeatedly!" Lieutenant General Mori nodded.
"This is China, it is Manchuria. We are not the home court here, but they can transform into thousands of people. Our soldiers are walking on the street in military uniforms, and they can see clearly at a glance. Even if they open their mouths, Chinese and Japanese will be immediately distinguished. Therefore, the Chinese people have to deal with the Chinese people themselves!" said Kenji Doihara, "They are more familiar with them than us and know their companions better!"
"What Doihirahara-kun means to support Manchukuo and govern Manchu with Manchu?"
"Yes, we provide instructors, weapons and equipment to help Manchukuo establish its own national defense force. This not only trains our soldiers and officers, but also reduces casualties of imperial soldiers, and can also consume their strength in internal friction!" Kenji Doihara said.
"I have heard Tada Jun mention similar suggestions many times. Now it seems that we can try them. Anyway, we have a similar agreement with Manchu State to help them establish their own national defense force!" Koiki Akira said.
"This matter can be started immediately. You can first formulate an aid plan and report it to the Army Department!" Muto Nobuyi nodded.
"Hayi!"
"Commander, I have another suggestion?" Kenji Doihara said.
"speak!"
"I suggest that the Kwantung Army's future intelligence work focus from the Soviet side to the Chinese army's east resistance!" Kenji Doihara said.
"For the Soviet intelligence work, this is a strategy that the cabinet has long decided and cannot be changed. Doihara, don't you know it, right?"
"The situation has changed now. If the East Anti-Japanese War is eliminated, how will our intelligence on the Soviet Union be carried out?" Kenji Doihara said, "I have been in Harbin for many years. The intelligence on the Soviet Union can be said to be established in my hands. We have lost the international metropolis of Harbin and have less contact with the Soviet Union. So how can we obtain more information on the Soviet Union?"
"After the Eastern Anti-Japanese War captured North Manchuria, our intelligence agencies were greatly damaged, and the intelligence personnel who worked for us were also hunted down and killed and were me. A large amount of top-secret information was also obtained by the Chinese army. It can be said that our hard work over the years has turned into a bubble, and everything has to be repeated!" Kenji Doihara said excitedly.
Kenji Doihara's tearful commentary made all the Japanese generals present even more dark shadows covered their hearts.
In the past six months, the Kwantung Army has suffered too much damage. Several military operations failed, a large number of officers and soldiers were killed, and the territory occupied was getting smaller and smaller, and it was even more infamous in the international arena. Just after winning a little victory, it was hit again in a blink of an eye and was about to collapse!
No one who is a general is unclear. Of course, Muto Nobuyi hopes to rebuild an intelligence agency. The question is, can the Kanto Army still rebuild an efficient and high-energy intelligence agency?
How to build and how to build all need to be considered. There are also a series of issues such as whether the current intelligence agencies are merged, or reorganized after disbanding, who will belong to power, etc., which can't be solved in just a few words!
What is the name of the new intelligence agency, the Kwantung Army Secret Service, or the Manchukuo Secret Service?
How much does it cost to recruit and train intelligence personnel? Where does it come from? Will it raise itself or allocate funds?
The problem is very troublesome, especially the repeated scandals of intelligence agencies have caused the Kwantung Army to be in a state of confusion, which has prompted Muto Nobuyi to decide to rectify it!
