Chapter 604: The new chief of staff of the Kwantung Army!

Changchun, Kwantung Army Headquarters!

The confrontation at Meihekou made Muto Nobuyi feel relieved, but what he didn't expect was that Fuyu, the railway hub, was suddenly captured by Li Haiqing's troops at this time.

This forced him to give up his plan to regain Jilin and instead send troops to open up the transportation channel to Harbin...

Li Haiqing from Fuyu was vulnerable and finally retreated, which made him feel relieved. The Li Du bandit army in Heilongjiang was a little ready to move again!

Fortunately, Ding Chao, who was entrenched in Baoqing, seemed to be a bit like the surrender of the Great Japanese Empire.

Although there is not much good news, it is better than nothing. Everything seems to be developing in a good direction. The base camp decided to increase its troops in Manchuria. He did not take off the black hat of the commander of the Kanto Army on his head. He also took the opportunity to wear the hat of the ambassador of the plenipotentiary to Manchuria and the director of the Kanto Department, integrating military and political power, and controlling all the troops of the Japanese Empire in Manchuria.

Such trust made Muto Nobuyoshi cry for His Majesty. When he took over the letter of appointment, he knelt down and bowed three times toward Tokyo, and shed a few turbid tears!

The worst thing is the officials in Manchukuo, who were full of fantasy and wanted to recruit An Dongzong, and even acted compassionately, saying that they couldn't bear to see the people sacrificing in the war.

I just want to recruit Dongzong and get rid of the control of the Great Japanese Empire!

These stupid donkeys really think that Dongzong is easy to recruit. It is impossible for you to escape from the embrace of the great Japanese Empire!

If the current situation was not very beneficial to the Kwantung Army, Muto Nobuyoshi really wanted to deal with these whimsical Manchu officials!

The Yamato nation is to be the master of the world. The Manchukuo country is just a springboard. Being obedient as a people is obedient, at least one bite of food. Otherwise, it is not impossible to change to another rule. Anyway, the orthodox one is already overwhelmed. As long as the child of the Qing royal family is surnamed "Aisin Gioro", who can't rule?

Wudo Nobuyoshi took office and was in a good mood. Overall, he felt that he had hoped to recover from the marshal.

Marshal, this is the highest military rank in the Great Japanese Empire. If I could become Marshal before I died, I would not have lived in vain in my life!

"Hiss Commander, the new Chief of Staff Major General Koiki Aki is here!" The adjutant knocked on Muto Nobuyi's door.

"Well, I understand, I'll be there soon!" Muto Nobuyoshi stroked his two beards with satisfaction, and smiled at the mirror.

"Hayi!"

"Commander, Koiki Aki is here to report!" Koiki Aki, wearing a major general uniform, appeared in Muto Nobuyi's office, wearing a sword given by the Emperor, which was very powerful.

"Koisi-kun, I didn't expect to see you in Xinjing so soon!" Muto Nobuyoshi smiled slightly, "Welcome to you!"

"It is the honor of Koiki Akira Koi!" Koiki Aki said respectfully.

"Koisi, what do you think about the situation in Manchuria?" Muto Nobuyoshi asked.

"Dissatisfied with the general, Koiki Aki, is very worried about the battle situation in Manchuria!" Koiki Aki said with a hint of worry.

"Sit down and say, this is not a formal military meeting. You can freely talk about what you think!" Muto Nobuyoshi said.

"Thank you, General!" Koiki Aki walked to the sofa and sat down.

"When I came, I passed by Fengtian and met Itagaki and Ishihara. They explained to me some specific situations about Manchuria. In general, the situation in Manchuria has reached a very dangerous level!" Koi Iso Kanami said.

"Is Koi-kun worried about the Peking side?" Muto Nobuyoshi asked.

"No, on the contrary, what I am most worried about is the Peking side, and Doihara Jun also has this view." Koiki Akira said.

"Oh. Why, the 300,000 elite Northeast Army under the command of Zhang Hanqing of Peking, has a total force of three times that of our Kwantung Army. If they go north at this time, we will be hit hardest, and may even lose Kanto Prefecture. This is very dangerous!" Muto Nobuyoshi said.

"Zhang Hanqing will not send troops. Not to mention whether he has the courage or not, even the GMZF in Nanjing is unwilling to have another dispute with the Japanese Empire at this time?"

"Why, is it because of the Southern organization?"

"Yes, Chiang Kai-shek is determined to wipe out the organizations that oppose him. This is common to our Japanese Empire. We also oppose the organizations, so we can help in this regard, so that Nanjing will definitely not want to see another war in Manchuria!" Koikiki Aki said, "Manchuria has not been a territory of China since ancient times. They have always believed that this place is a barren land, far less prosperous than the Central Plains and the South, so many people are not interested in it, and their interests are not in Manchuria, so many people do not support the sending troops to Manchuria!"

"What happened to the parade and petition of that man?"

"This is just a group of poor students venting their dissatisfaction with the government. There is an old Chinese saying that scholars rebelled and failed for ten years. These people are not worth worrying about!" Koi Iso Kinami said.

"Then what you mean is that we don't have to worry too much about Peking, right?" Muto Nobuyi nodded.

"Yes, when we send back to the League of Nations investigation team at this time, it has actually already restricted the Peking side. Peking side still has certain fantasies about the League of Nations investigation team. Therefore, once the League of Nations investigation team returns to Beijing, General Zhang Hanqing will definitely not want to send troops again." Koi Iso Kanakami said.

"Your analysis is very reasonable. Doihara Jun also sent me a telegram and stated the same reason, but we still have to guard against Peking, especially Huang Xiansheng's part in the direction of Rehe, which caused us a lot of casualties!" Muto Nobuyoshi said.

"The Second Division is enough to be in charge of Jinzhou!" Koikiki Akira said, "I think the biggest enemy now is the Dongzong that suddenly appeared. I learned about the process of the Dongzong appearance and found that we made a big mistake!"

"The danger was not nipped in the bud, right?" Muto Nobuyoshi said unhappily. This mistake was not made by him. To be held accountable, the previous commander of the Kanto Army, Shin-homoto, and Kenji Doihara, the head of the Fengtian secret service agency!

It was under these two men that the Dongzong grew from an inconspicuous bandit to a powerful force with more than 100,000 armors, and repeatedly, repeatedly and severely damaged the Kantong Army, which made the Kantong Army's internal talk about the "Dongzong" to a point of fear.

"It's underestimating the enemy!"

"From the beginning, we didn't see this small bandit force taking it seriously. We tried to conquer him and watched him grow up step by step, which eventually led to today's disaster!" Koiki Akira said.

"Well. I admit this. The 9th Division and the 14th Division also suffered a great loss because of underestimating the enemy." Muto Nobuyi nodded.

"Then do you think, how should we recover the current unfavorable situation?"

"I think that the bandit suppression work should not be done by the Great Japanese Empire in person. It should be handed over to the Manchukuo army!" Akira Koi Iso said.

"What do you mean is to provide weapons and equipment to help Manchukuo train its army, and then let them deal with the Eastern Governor?" Muto's Nobuyi's proposal is no longer new. The key is, can the armed army of Manchukuo win? It's simply to send troops and guns and bullets to the other side!

"Great General, my idea is this. The Great Japanese Empire helped Manchukuo train its army and served as the commander of the army to command the Manchukuo army to fight. This will not only ensure the combat effectiveness of the Manchukuo team, but also hold the army in our hands. It will also make Manchukuo rely on us!" Koi Isoki Akira said.

"Your idea is good, but how many officers and soldiers do you need?" Muto Nobuyoshi said, "If it is drawn from the active troops, will it affect our army's combat effectiveness?"

"You can draw some from the active troops and some from the reserve troops. And you can use this method to secretly expand the army and let Manchukuo train soldiers for us!" said Akira Koi Iso.

"Yes, this idea is very good. Use rotation method to let soldiers go to the battlefield to experience it. In this way, qualified soldiers can be trained from afar!" Muto Nobuyoshi said, "And there is no need to spend money from the military headquarters!"

"Yes. The seventeen army divisions of the Imperial Japanese Army in the future are definitely not enough, but our military expenditure is tight now. If we expand the army, it will inevitably arouse opposition from domestic peace forces. If we use this method, we can obtain a large number of elite soldiers. Once the army is expanded, we can immediately form elite divisions. In the future, the Imperial Japanese Empire will rule China, and China is so large that it is impossible to defend without a million army!" Koi Isoki Aki.

"Okay, Koi-kun gave me such a clever plan as soon as he came. This matter should be feasible and the base camp should not object." Muto Nobuyoshi was overjoyed.

"To implement this strategy, we must first solve the current dilemma. Although the base camp will send the Fourth and Sixth Divisions to Manchuria, Manchuria is very large, with more than 100,000 people scattered, and each county can only be assigned one squadron, or even fewer. So next, my subordinates think that we should vigorously incorporate and support local forces, weapons, money, and numbers that are close to our great Japanese Empire. As long as they can help us deal with those anti-Japanese armed forces!" Koiki Akira said, "As long as these forces exist, the anti-Japanese armed forces will inevitably be curbed and give us enough time to train the army."

"This strategy can be tried elsewhere, but it is probably difficult in the East Column controlled area. They are taking the most severe blow to the opposition. Almost all of these forces friendly to our Japanese Empire have been uprooted by them and cannot pose a threat to them at all!" Muto Nobuyoshi said.

"This Dongzong is really powerful. They are very good at organization and control of people's hearts. They use farmers' yearning for land, carry out land reform, confiscate some bully landlords' land and redistribute it to them. Then, they ask the enlightened gentry to reduce rent and interest. Most of the farmers make profits, so they get great support!" Koi Iso Kōaki said.

"In fact, we can also implement such policies to make the Chinese people look up to us, so that we can win the hearts of the people with them!"

"You can try this, but it is not good for the Great Japanese Empire to make profits!"

"There is an old saying in China that if you want to take it, you should first go with it. When the anti-Japanese armed forces are wiped out, then, will this Manchuria be the world of the Great Japanese Empire?" Koiki Aki smiled sinisterly.

"Little Iso-kun is really a talent!"
