Chapter 572
I can't afford to hurt
"The information obtained by the Flower of Empires is reliable?" Okamura Yanji finally saw Kenji Doihara who was rescued back to Shanghai by the Japanese agents, and asked with a stern face as soon as he saw him.
Kenji Doihara, who originally planned to recover from his injuries, could no longer stay in Nanjing, and a trend of robbing traitors and spies was set off. Even if the people were spontaneous, the resentment of the people who were suppressed by the Japanese in the past was suddenly released and ignited the enthusiasm of the whole people.
Meng Xiang knew that this passion was not suitable for obstruction at all, and did not dare to let it go. Instead, he quickly sent the military police and armed police forces of the vanguard army to cooperate in the arrest and maintain order, and established a fair and open trial court based on the military court and the citizen court to guide it, so as not to be used to the extreme.
With the support of the Pioneer Army, this trend became more and more intense. Under the national craze in old Nanjing, many of the chess pieces arranged by the Japanese were pulled out. Kenji Doihara had changed several places to recover from the wounded place, but he still couldn't pick out the millions of eyes of the people. He had no choice but to lose more than a dozen agents and escaped after using them as bait.
"This should be fine!" Kenji Doihara replied hoarsely, but his tone was still a little sharp. He was very annoyed. The injury a few days ago caused him to lose one half of his leg. Half of his left leg was blown off from his knee, and he was already disabled. But what made him even more annoyed was that the more important leg in the middle was actually swirled away by a rapid shrapnel. Although it was just the size of broad beans before, it still had some. But now the whole leg was broken, and it was impossible to see the rice.
Okamura Yasuji also heard about what happened to Kenji Doihara, and chose to ignore his sharp voice. He just frowned and lowered his head and said to himself, "What does the vanguard army mean now?"
Even when he was recovering from his injuries, Kenji Doihara's intelligence network was always in his hands. He naturally knew Okamura's confusion, because after the vanguard army conquered Nanjing, it did not stop tacitly and digest, but instead continued to advance eastward and force Shanghai.
"The Pioneer Army needs more results if it needs to obtain domestic support. Shanghai is something they will never let go." Kenji Doihara has always held this view, but it is obvious that the country is reluctant to leave Shanghai's big fat meat.
"This time the Nanjing blocking war was too fierce, which made the vanguard army wary of us. They were absolutely uneasy that our 200,000 troops were arranged near Shanghai." Kenji Doihara had already grasped the situation of the street fighting in Nanjing in the past few days. Although the Japanese were defeated miserably, the 40,000 troops gradually disappeared within a few days. He still got some first-hand information about the battle situation. Thinking of his previous broad beans, he had already agreed with the tragic battle of the Japanese to the end.
"We shouldn't have fought like this in this Nanjing Guard Battle!" Okamura Yanji said 40,000 soldiers were filled in, but apart from being brave, it did not damage the reputation of the vanguard army. Instead, because of the excessive resistance, the vanguard army focused its attention on the Japanese army.
Politics and military are two different things. Sometimes some shrewd political measures may lead to idiotic military actions. The same wonderful military actions may also be a failure in political strategy. Although many people have been optimistic about this action before, the ending was not as everyone speculated, and it was even worse.
Okamura Yasuji did not notice that Kenji Doihara agreed with tears in his eyes. He just felt that he had lost his composure and should not have commented heavily when he was taken half of the blame. He just changed his mind and immediately said:
"There is a dispute within the Pioneer Army sent by the Flower of the Empire, and it has caused fierce quarrels. It seems that this Nanjing defensive battle has stimulated the Pioneer Army, which has temporarily put the viewpoint of advancing north.
Among the news that the *** people have successively found, the top leaders of the vanguard army were also divided into two factions due to Japan-Soviet relations. One advocated that the *** people be completely driven out before considering the Soviet Union and Russia's affairs, and the other advocated that when the Soviet-German relationship was tense, enter Outer Mongolia early and solve the Outer Mongolia affairs first.
"But now we advocate concentrated on dealing with us. When the Soviet-German War is in war, the proposal of taking advantage of the situation and regaining Outer Mongolia is becoming more and more prosperous. Even Meng Ribai vaguely agrees with this view. This will be further and further away from our expectations." Okamura Yasuji worried, "If the information of the Flower of Empire is accurate, we may be in danger."
At this time, the vanguard army exposed more than 500,000 troops outside Nanjing and Shanghai. Even though the Japanese troops in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were concentrated in Shanghai, with about 200,000, Okamura Yasuji was not sure about the vanguard army of 500,000.
"Only one hundred new fighter jets were sent to Manchuria, but none were sent to Shanghai. Faced with the bombing of the vanguard army, how can we defend Shanghai, a place that is easy to attack and difficult to defend?" He complained, and the lack of air supremacy alone allowed the 200,000 Japanese army to be passively bombed.
"Do we really want to fight for the 200,000 troops?" Okamura Yasuji emphasized again. In the past, the devils concentrated 200,000 troops to shock the vanguard army and let them go to Shanghai due to the concerns of too much casualties. But at present, the momentum of the vanguard army's eastward advance has not diminished. Okamura Yasuji reported these situations to the base camp early, but there was no news there. I am afraid that the *** base camp will not speak again, and a war will inevitably be inevitable.
"We can't afford to hurt!" Okamura Yanji was already extremely anxious. If the 200,000 troops were disabled here, it would definitely be a serious injury to the *** people. I'm afraid that the process of going south would be greatly affected.
"So what if you do a fake show? We can get hurt!" At this time, Meng Xiang smiled and comforted Fan Zhong, who was a little worried.
"I know, but if it gets into a war and causes a series of reactions, I'm afraid the plan to go north will be postponed in a short period of time." Fan Zhong still hesitated in his heart.
"Don't worry! The war will not start. We can get hurt, but the Japanese cannot afford to hurt." Meng Xiang said with a relaxed look. "The Japanese's plan to advance south has begun. If we are dragged in China, they may have to watch this excellent opportunity. The European war has led to the emptiness of Southeast Asia. Such an opportunity can only be encountered once every decades. The Japanese will never let this opportunity go."
"Due to the strong rise of the Pioneer Army, our opportunity in China has been lost. We can only wait for the Pioneer Army to conceit the Soviet Union to deal with the Soviet Union and get better opportunities. Previously, the rich resources of Southeast Asia will be the basis for us to take advantage of this. When we head south, the Pioneer Army will be at ease to invest more troops into the Soviet Union. At that time, facing a disabled Soviet Union, we may have better opportunities." At this time, Hideki Tojo was also making a generous speech.
"But what if the Soviet Union and the Pioneer Army can't fight? You must know that the Germans have made the Soviet Union dare not act rashly on the Western Front of the Soviet Union. What if they reconcile with the Pioneer Army and return Outer Mongolia directly to the Pioneer Army? After all, the Pioneer Army only needs Outer Mongolia." A big boss said in a deep voice. The reason why the Soviet Union fought back strongly in the battle in Manzhouli was because the *** people had too much appetite.
If the vanguard army under the banner of regaining Outer Mongolia, it is very likely that the Soviet Union will make concessions temporarily and settle the accounts later.
"Stalin, who has established a strong image in China, will not bow his head so easily! Otherwise, the external republics of the Soviet Union may have trouble. Besides, according to our information, in order to cope with the German crisis, some factories have begun to move to Siberia. For the vanguard army with such a good relationship with the Germans, can the Soviet Union feel assured that they control Outer Mongolia and Soviet, pose a threat to the Siberian Railway, and jammed the throat of the Far East?" Tojo Hideki's tone was very affirmative.
"But if the Pioneer Army attacked the Soviet Union in advance, it seems that he would not want to be an ally of the Germans!" A big boss hummed sarcastically, but the sour smell was everywhere in the room. The people wanted to move closer to the Germans, but the Germans were always lukewarm and were avoiding the alliance with the people. The Pioneer Army was also cautious about the olive branches extended by the Germans.
"This is how we want to do it!" Hideki Tojo said, "If the Pioneer Army and the Germans formally form an alliance, we may be in a more difficult situation."
The *** people have decided to go south and will inevitably have evil with Britain, the United States and other countries. Although the Germans did not formally form an alliance with the *** people at this time, the related exchanges are also very close. Unless the *** people give up their plan to go south and unite with Britain, the United States, but facing this piece of fat, it is really a greedy torment in the hearts of the *** people. Moreover, as a neutral party, the *** people, as the neutral party, will not get much benefit in China. Whether it is the British who are too busy to take care of themselves or the United States that always advocates opening up the door, they will not support the *** people to swallow China.
"The Pioneer Army does not have its own huge military factory. How long can it last when buying weapons? They are adopting a way to support the war. Facing Siberian resources, can they not be jealous? If Germany and the Soviet Union carry out, they will definitely not miss this opportunity. It doesn't matter if they form an alliance with the Germans at that time. We can negotiate with the United Kingdom and the United States with the results of our southward journey! I believe that at that time, we will have more choices and get more concessions from Britain and the United States!" Hideki Tojo said excitedly.
