Chapter 335: New Bureau in the Far East: Sino-Japanese War(1/2)
,
spn〖Japanese〗, Tokyo Palace.
The Emperor, dressed in a regular uniform, is meeting two important military officials. Since the outbreak of World War II, the traditional military headquarters has been replaced by a further wartime military headquarters base. Chief of the General Staff of the Military Headquarters Seishiro Itagaki, the Chief of the Operations Chief of the Military Headquarters, was sitting at the lower head. Although he did not dare to stare at the Emperor, he glanced at the Emperor who closed his eyes and thought deeply from time to time. "His Majesty the Emperor, our negotiating team has started formal negotiations in the Sino-Germany Joint Negotiation Team. China has a very tough attitude, while the Germans have changed their strength, hoping to properly resolve the Far East incident."
Seishiro Itagaki bowed his head slightly and reported.
"The China-German negotiation team's proposal is to form a joint investigation team between China, Germany and Japan to investigate the members of the German official team involved in the case in Shinyizhou," Ishihara Kanir added.
The 44-year-old emperor showed a sneer and closed his eyes and said, "I heard that His Excellency Hitler ordered the arrest of several German intelligence officials in Berlin, and asked the Gestapo to search for our intelligence personnel throughout Germany, and still get angry at the base camp. Someday, let the Japanese know that the dignity of the Third Reich cannot be violated at will."[
"Your Majesty Hitler is anxious. Since he came to power, no country has ever been able to bring him such a shame, but he can't do anything about it." Ishihara smiled, but there was a bit of hideousness in his smile.
"The situation is so, the Japanese Empire is not Italy, nor Poland. Even their most advanced guide can only bully the poor British." Seishiro Itagaki shook his head, a little disdainful of Hitler's clamor.
The emperor opened his eyes and picked up the documents brought by Itagaki on the small table, which were about the secret talks between Japan, the United States and the Soviet Union.
"Americans and Soviets are unwilling to make big concessions at this time.
Humph, if it weren't for the joint fortune of the empire, it would have taken over the entire Far East." Seeing many of the terms denied by the United States and the Soviet Union in the document, Hirohito couldn't help but slapped the small table with anger.
Seeing this, Ishihara and the other two naturally spoke according to Hirohito's temper. Ishihara Kanir said angrily with emotion, "1 The most important terms of the conditions proposed by the Empire this time have been denied or avoided, which is really angering.
For example, we proposed that the Soviet Union must give up the entire Far East and give us a coordinated management area to fight against China. "Stalin disagreed. He just agreed to take the Far East south of the Communist Qingcheng defense line as a temporary area for the United States and Japan. It is really too much to deceive people. Now this large area was taken down at a huge price in the occupation of our Japanese empire.
For example, before the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, the United States must urgently provide tank and armored vehicles from the old division and provide assistance from export aircraft, especially large bombers. The Americans also refused to agree. With the powerful military industrial manufacturing capabilities of the Americans currently running at full speed, the tank and armored vehicles of the old division can be completed without even half a month, and the N-port aircraft can be completed in at most half a month.
Other long-term aid plans are small, and they are even more unwilling to give positive responses, but instead ask us to leave the Axis powers first, which is a sign of intrepidation."
Leaving the Axis powers and re-selecting the allies is the third major political decision by Japan after attacking China and joining the Axis powers.
On the one hand, the stalemate in the Far East battlefield was a cause, but the fundamental reason was that when Japan gradually discovered that when it resisted millions of coalition forces in the United States and the Soviet Union and paid millions of casualties, but did not get the corresponding land, it felt a huge anger from top to bottom.
Strictly speaking, this can be attributed to the lack of combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, not to say it is bad, but to encounter the comprehensive resistance of the United States and the Soviet Union for a while, and the not-wide Far East battlefield, it is difficult to invest more troops. This kind of meat grinder-style loss made the dreams of "Japanese" that they had when they sleep were nightmares, for fear that they would receive the bad news that a certain division would be wiped out the next day.
In contrast, when the Chinese, when Japan and Germany jointly held back the main force of the Soviet army, dispatched millions of troops to advance, not only seized some parts of Central Asia, but also even took large tracts of land in Siberia and the Far East.
Although China has the geographical advantages here, it can be so annoying compared with Japan's large losses and small returns.
This can be said to be the plot of the Chinese. After all, the mechanized army of the Chinese did not attack the Japanese and Soviet battlefields in the Far East. Instead, it was because many places were in a tight position and cutting and encircling the Soviet Union was in line with strategic purposes. As a reason, it put a lot of Soviet land into its own pocket.
In fact, to be serious, if China does not attack Siberia, Central Asia, or the Soviet territory on the left side of the Far East battlefield, the Soviet Union will indeed be difficult to hurt its muscles and will have strong potential for war, and will be able to respond smoothly from the east and west.
But this benefit was taken over by the Chinese, and Japan was extremely dissatisfied from top to bottom.
On the one hand, there are continuous good news, and on the other hand, the number of casualties is accumulated day by day, so the Japanese naturally have other thoughts.
On the other hand, China is becoming increasingly powerful. If it breaks away from the Axis powers and joins the Allies, it can maximize the use of the power of the Allies to check and balance the Chinese.[
China may be really strong, and Japan also admits this, but Japan also believes that once the Soviet Union is freed from Japan and Japan, with the strength of Japan and the US weapons and equipment, although the Chinese now occupy a large area of Soviet territory, they will face a super-large counterattack.
In the eyes of Japan, this is an excellent opportunity, the best opportunity to attack China or even destroy China.
In the strategic plan of the top Japanese and Chinese governments, the negotiations with China and Germany are just for Americans and allies to see. How to obtain greater benefits from the United States and the Soviet Union, especially to record more benefits from the United States, the world-class arms king, is something that Japanese governments are very concerned about.
After all, Americans' munitions production in one month is the production of "Japan" himself for half a year or even a year.
A rare opportunity, not eating big people is not the tricky style of the Japanese.
"Try for a little more. If the German government team refuses to admit conspiracy and deliberately expand the casualties of the emperors, then they will be sent to Shinyizhou.
On the US and the Soviet side, the pace of negotiations must be accelerated, and the China-German negotiation team provided us with a good opportunity to help us raise conditions for the allies.
In addition, what preparations does the military have?"
Hirohito is not a good strategist, but he is definitely a good ambitious man. At least he knows how to fight for the best interests of Japan and Japan in a complex situation, even if it is taking risks. This is also the reason why he repeatedly agrees with the adventurism of the military for the so-called "Japanese" destiny after he succeeded to the throne.
Seishiro Itagaki is the chief of staff of the military headquarters and has extremely high power. The emperor's question was quickly answered, "His Majesty the Emperor, the military headquarters has ordered the Far East War Zone" to organize a large-scale air bombing and land attack."
"Yoxi, that's what it should be.
Ishihara Kanji is the chief of combat. He very much agrees with the plan of military offensive.
A large-scale attack at a critical moment not only allowed Fengde to see some hope and not give up negotiations, but also allowed the United States and the Soviet Union to see the right to speak in Japan and win the number of times.
"Ichigaki, Ishihara, I have always had a high trust in both of you. The discomfort in the Sino-Japanese War that year was only forced by the general situation. This time, I hope you can do the responsibility of the helmsman well." The emperor stood up and said solemnly.
"The imperial martial arts fortune lasts for a long time!" The two stood up, lowered their heads and stood solemnly.
Tokyo, a remote street in a suburb.
On the third floor of a S-man house, the door was closed, and a man was sitting next to him, but his whole person was blocked by the house.
The man is about thirty years old and has an ordinary look. The youth outfit he wears is the favorite dress and dress of Japanese youth on the street. If a man is placed on the street, he must be the type of looking for people in the vast sea of people. It is really too ordinary, and even the eyes he inadvertently exposed are just ordinary.
On the two-foot table beside him, a cloth covered with an elongated object.
While drinking tea, the man reached into his arms and took out an old-fashioned cover pocket watch. He opened it with a snap. There was an iron mezzanine on the inside of the pocket watch. After deflecting it, he could see a photo of one inch behind the mezzanine.
The photo shows an old man with half-white hair. The photo is on both sides. The front is a photo of an old man wearing a military uniform, and the back is a photo of an old man wearing a suit.
“Sizi…”[
At this time, an electromagnetic sound came from the earbud type headphones worn by the man, and someone activated the call.
"The rabbit is about to leave the nest, the mouse is ready, and the farmer is ready to catch the rabbit at any time."
"The farmer understands."
After the man finished speaking, he turned off the call, then quickly lifted the covered object from the table, lifted the cloth, but revealed a murderous sniper rifle.
Judging from the appearance of the gun, it is a typical American-made sniper rifle, from guns to sniper lenses, and even pieces, all made in the United States.
After a quick check of the sniper rifle, the man squatted down again and looked at the device behind him. It was a time-based explosion and could be activated at any time.
"The farmer is ready!" "Waiting for an opportunity!"
The man turned sideways slightly and his eyes fell diagonally across the street again, but there was a traditional Japanese courtyard. In front of the courtyard, there were two rows of Japanese soldiers with guns, and even several armored vehicles. There were three ugly Japanese black cars parked at the door.
The Japanese soldiers were full of murderous intent, with cold bayonets and murderous intent. Half of the street where the courtyard was located was equivalent to martial law.
In the courtyard, there was another scene at this moment.
Several civilian officers stood in the courtyard, with the door closed in the main room, two Japanese officers were talking to a white-haired German old man. The two spoke a lot, but the German old man opposite did not speak.
"Mr. Model, as long as you cooperate with us, you will be our VIP. We can send you to any country to settle and give you a sponsorship of 10,000 yuan. The intelligence personnel of the empire can even rescue your wife and son from Germany." Colonel Hasegawa, dressed in military uniform, rubbed his big palms and looked at Marshal Model sitting upright opposite him with a flattering smile.
"Marty Marshal Model, we can inform you of good news. The Sino-German negotiation team has arrived in Shinyiju and will hold negotiations with us. You should know the temper of Head Hitler. I think, even if the negotiation is successful, you may end up in Germany... Of course, if the negotiation fails, you will return to Germany again..."..." Major Araki, who was standing next to him, said in a gloomy tone.
It is obvious that "if Model returns to Germany, he will almost certainly be arrested" or even tried and shot. Faced with the frame-up of "Japan" himself, as the Supreme German military commander in Japan, Model has an unshirkable responsibility.
Of course, if the negotiations fail and France returns to Germany, Model will accept a trial dominated by Japan and the ending is also very miserable.
After saying it, he was waiting quietly. He had already said a lot of what he should say. This old man in his fifties just refused to speak.
Civilian officers outside were already raising their wrists and looking at their watches, and it seemed that time was coming.
Faced with such a situation, Marshal Model still did not speak.
"Mr. Model, I mentioned one thing just now, maybe you didn't hear it clearly. So far, many officers of your side have admitted that they have received your conspiracy orders and sent the soldiers of the Great Japanese Empire to the wrong battlefield. They believe that the joint command, especially you, has a great responsibility for the huge losses in the Far East battlefield.
You have three minutes left.”
Hasegawa finally raised his hand and looked at the watch," he said in a sinister way, his tone was already very impatient.
Model suddenly raised his head, and a light burst out from his originally dark eyes. Seeing Hasegawa and the other two frowned secretly, he only heard him say, "I am only loyal to Germany, and no one can impose a conspiracy on me." This time, Hasegawa and Araki were slightly stunned.
Hasegawa stood up, bowed and bowed, and then left first.
Araki waved his hand and scolded, "Take it away!"
After waiting for a long time, Japanese soldiers flocked in and took Model out of the house. Before leaving, Model even tidied up his military uniform.
Before stepping past the gate, Marshal Model seemed to feel something, and just raised his head," suddenly changed.
"Boom!!" An earth-shaking explosion came from a sushi restaurant more than 100 meters away. The violent explosion affected two or three shops next to the sushi restaurant, with splashing glass and slags everywhere.
However, at this moment, when Japanese soldiers were in a hurry, no one noticed that the third floor of the S house, more than two hundred meters away, had been opened, and a thick barrel had been exposed.
There was almost no hesitation.
aim!!
Touch the trigger!!
"Bang!!"
A low gunshot, if it was usually a harsh one, was not so conspicuous in the aftermath of the explosion in the distance.
The moment the gunshot was heard, Marshal Model, who was tightly grasped by two Japanese soldiers, disappeared instantly as if he was a magician.
The two Japanese soldiers were inexplicably surprised, and in a flash, they felt that their faces were covered with blood and flesh. Looking at Model who was originally catching, there was a head missing...
"Baga! 1nm heart..." The Japanese army was in chaos and did not expect to be sniped. They all lay down on the spot, looking for cover. Hasegawa and Araki were pulled by several guards, trying to pull the car and start leaving.
At the same time, several Japanese armored vehicles also started to move, and were about to start looking for sneak attackers.
"Swish...swish..."
At this moment, several objects dragging long tail flames flew from different directions. Hasegawa was just stuffed into the car and sat firmly on his way, when he saw the object flying in. In an instant, his liver and gallbladder were broken.
"Baga..." The next moment, a violent explosion drowned out the Japanese army in front of the courtyard, and even the armored vehicles were affected by the explosion, and the two armored vehicles were even hit directly by the rockets.
"Boom boom boom..."
To be continued...
