Chapter 3 The Situation (Part 6)
Chapter 3 Storm (Sixth)
In just twenty years, he was able to climb from Duling Prince who only owned a banner to Prince Duling, the leader of Xilingol League, and the Beiyang government participated in politics, and then took advantage of the national crisis to plagiarize the military and political power of the entire Inner Mongolia, and became the largest traitor on the grassland. The most respected puppet of the Japanese, the puppet who relied on the word "gambling". As long as he saw the opportunity, he would bet decisively. Almost every time he bet, he would win a fortune. (Note 1)
This time, he once again showed extraordinary decisiveness. On the night he received Wu Heling's advice, he sent his confidant guard to quietly leave the city with his own handwritten letter, riding a horse and running for more than 200 miles in one breath. In an inconspicuous small village, he used a hidden radio station to turn the handwritten letter into a telegram and sent it out.
After receiving the message, several puppet security brigade commanders who had been frightened and panicked by the 93rd Regiment were as if they were amnesty. They immediately gave up their positions with their respective troops and retreated to the old city of Beizi Temple to "stay and wait for assistance". Then, on the grounds of "not fighting for gains and losses of one city and one place", they rushed to the west with a large number of local people on the grounds of "not fighting for gains and losses of one city and one place".
This time, far beyond the expectations of Takashi Sakai, the highest advisor of the pseudo-Mongol Autonomous Government, caught the other party off guard. According to Takashi Sakai's prediction, even if the four Xilingol Security Brigades were not opponents of the 93rd Regiment, in order not to be embarrassed in front of their hometown elders, they could at least persist until more than half of their casualties before withdrawing from the battle. Now, these four security brigades have been directly distracted without any injury. Takashi Sakai's previous dual plan to eliminate the wings of King De and use the brigade to consume the 93rd Regiment, which was completely wishful thinking. Not only did the minions of the King De of the Pseudo-De were not damaged, the 93rd Regiment of the National Revolutionary Army, which had already produced a majestic 93rd Regiment, may also turn around and go north to directly establish contact with the Soviet Red Army, and obtain the other party's full support, (Note 2)
"Eight, ga," Thinking of the armored torrents of the Soviet army when they launched the charge, Takashi Sakai felt dizzy. As a senior staff officer of the Kanto Army and the highest spy chief of the Japanese invaders on the Mongolian grassland, his understanding of the Battle of Nomenhan is not as shallow as the soldiers below. Although verbally, the Japanese military and propaganda departments insisted that the two sides had a victory or defeat in this battle. His Majesty the Emperor had once again defended the dignity of the empire with his flesh and blood. In fact, senior officials of the level of Sakai Tatsuya clearly knew that this battle was probably the worst failure since the establishment of a modern army in the Japanese Empire. More than 17,000 soldiers of the 30,000 participating imperial soldiers were casualties and nearly 10,000 were missing. In addition, there were tens of thousands of puppet Manchukuo soldiers who cooperated to fight. (Note 3)
What was even heavier than the number of casualties in the battle was that the entire Kwantung Army was scared by the strong combat power shown by the Soviet Red Army. The scene of thousands of cannons leading the way, the sky was covered with bombers, and countless tanks rushed over from the ground, making all the survivors who retreated from the battlefield unforgettable for life. Many low-level officers cried bitterly when they recalled the scene more than two months after the war, and even people kept secretly getting up in the middle of the night, walking to a place where no one was, and ending their lives with a septum.
"The two divisions were completely defeated into a group of remnants. The imperial samurai surrounded by the Soviet army did not even have the chance to surrender. They were blown into powder by Zhukov's madman with bombers and cannons." It was only conveyed to the summary of the general's first-level battle. The scene described completely exceeded Sakai's imagination. He had been carrying infantry for half his life, and his thinking had already formed a fixed pattern. He could not imagine the situation where soldiers on both sides could not see each other and decided the victory and defeat completely by artillery shells and bombs. How many tens of tons of steel would be enough to satisfy such a luxurious tactic. It is probably not enough to concentrate the steel of the entire Manchukuo throughout the year, and it is probably not enough to fight such a war. The Soviets provided one-tenth of the resources to Fu Zuoyi and the Northeast Anti-Japanese United Nations.
The 93rd Regiment, which had been equipped with Soviet equipment, had the strength to completely wipe out a strengthening squadron of the Kwantung Army. If the Chinese were allowed to open a second channel to receive Soviet aid, in an instant, Takashi Sakai seemed to have seen tens of thousands of Chinese soldiers, holding a rotary machine gun, with the support of planes and cannons, his body stiffened again, and two cold sweat streams drizzled from the left and right temples.
"Come here, send me a telegram to the Kwantung Army headquarters. I want to call General Umetsu." Without even wiping the cold sweat on his face, he loudly ordered outside the office. The office door was immediately pushed open. The intelligence team leader, his left and right arm, Kuanghara Aichiro, ran in quickly with a look of horror on his face.
"Why is it you?" Sakai Takashi was stunned and asked in surprise. Usually, the ones who were usually ordered outside his office were the middle and lower-level officials such as the head of the communication team, Ikeda Hoshiki, the chief of the police chief, Asanuma Kyotaro. In any case, he could not use the secret agency chief, Sanghara Aichiro, who was squatting outside the door and "waiting for guidance".
"General." Before the head of the secret service agency, Ariichiro Suohara, the head of the traffic police, Ikeda Hiroki and the chief of the police, Asanuma, had already entered one after another, and everyone's face was dead gray, as if they were bereaved.
Now, without the need for the response from Aichiro Kurahara, Sakai Takashi knew that something was wrong, and the sweat on his temples became more and more "rumped", suppressing the panic in his heart, and asked in a deep voice: "What's going on? Tell me slowly, is it that Fu Zuoyi launched a counterattack? Or is the 93rd Regiment already entered King Deok's mansion in Xilingol?"
"No, no." Ariichiro Kurahara shook his head a few times and reported loudly, "I didn't come in with them. I just received an emergency information. King De Muchuk Donglup secretly established contact with Chongqing. I was ready to lead his troops and Li Shouxin at the appropriate time."
"What," As if he heard a bolt from the blue, Takashi Sakai's eyes went dark, and it seemed that he did not fall on the spot. He asked the 93rd Regiment to establish a material passage with the Soviets. The unlucky one was the entire Kwantung Army, not just Takashi Sakai. If the pseudo-God king surrendered to Chongqing, he, the lieutenant general who had only been promoted for a few days, would be completely over. If he couldn't do it well, he could go directly to the military court.
"You, please tell me carefully, that King De, what exactly did he want to do, when did he get involved with Chongqing, and he has been hooked up to that level now." As if it was not his own voice, it came out of his mouth, and anxiously urged Sanghara Aichiro, urging the other party to report the whole story of the matter clearly.
"That bastard Demuchukdonglup." When the name of the fake De King was mentioned, the secret service chief Akiichiro Sanghara gritted his teeth. "He hooked up with Chongqing last summer and said that his position as chairman of the Mongolian and Xinjiang Autonomous Committee was purely forced. Now, he finally saw our true face and decided to repent. The radio stations that contacted Chongqing were hidden in his temporary palace in Houhehot. Several agents from Chongqing also usually went in and out of the house as convenient as entering and leaving their own homes. In addition, he also."
"Baga, what I ask you is, which step they have taken,." Sakai Takashi waited for a long time but didn't hear what he wanted to know most. He raised his hand so angry that he slapped Sanghara Arakachiro in the face, "Which step is explained directly to me, it's too late to stop them now."
"Ah." Sangmu Arachiro covered his face and turned around in the same circle, then staggered and stood up again. He did not dare to make his immediate boss angry anymore. He quickly adjusted his thoughts and collected key reports: "According to the people we placed in the temporary palace, the fake king had officially looked at his heart with Chongqing three days ago. The sender was the concubine he took last year. Jiang, and Chongqing, in the tone of Chiang Kai-shek, he personally replied to him tonight."
"According to reports from the Chabei Special Services Agency, neither the 93rd Regiment nor the Black Stone Guerrillas entered Beizi Temple, but suddenly turned around and rushed to the southwest to kill." The head of the communication team, Ikeda Toki, was afraid of being affected by the Chiyu, so he quickly held up the telegram report he had just received.
The situation in which the Commissioner of Police Asanuma was more detailed, and his tone of report was even more anxious. "In the afternoon of the afternoon, Zuotian, the commander of the Sixth and the Eighth Mongolian Cavalry Division ran back from the front line on the excuse and visited King Toru. He left at around 8 o'clock in the evening. After returning to the front line today, he carried our consultant officer and convened a small meeting."
"Baga." The highest consultant Takashi Sakai was so angry that he cursed, and his murderous aura suddenly surged. It was so hateful that he was preparing to carry out a mutiny under his nose. Is that bastard Demuchukdonglupu all blind as a secret agent of the Japanese Empire? He didn't teach him a lesson. He really thought that his chairman of the Mongolian and Xinjiang Autonomous Committee had his wings hard, killing, and killing all those involved in this matter. He would destroy him. He would change to a more obedient person to be a puppet, and see who would dare to follow his footsteps in the future.
Note 1: King De claimed to be Genghis Khan's 30th generation grandson, but the authenticity cannot be verified. The capital he started his career was only the hereditary Duling Prince. According to the hierarchical order standards of princes, princes, bele, bezi, and Gong in the Qing Dynasty, he was a second-class noble. However, he showed a strong ability to seize opportunities when he was young. He had deep contacts with Duan Qirui government, puppet Manchukuo government and Panchen Lama, and was able to make full use of the situation at that time and the influence of the other party to increase his own value. In his life, except for colluding with the Japanese invaders and defecting to Outer Mongolia, he would win every bet.
Note 2: Takashi Sakai, the "Supreme Emperor" arranged by the Japanese invaders on the heads of the pseudo-De King and others, Lieutenant General of the Army, was sentenced to death for slashing two British people in Hong Kong after World War II.
Note 3: In the Battle of Nomenhan, the Soviet side actually suffered a lot of casualties, but the Soviet side verified General Zhukov's integrated air-ground attack tactics through this battle, and accumulated valuable experience in the war against Germany later. The lesson learned by the Japanese side was that they could not provoke the Soviet Union, so they simply went south to attack the British sphere of influence.
