Chapter 672 Final Preparations
The National Defense Forces were preparing for war from north to south, and the Nanjing Government was not idle either. Chiang Zhongzheng was not a fool, nor was he an idiot. How could he not know that the Japanese army was mobilizing troops to prepare for war?!
However, he was preparing for the entire war with deep sorrow. In his opinion, if there was no external intervention, the current National Government could do nothing but let the Japanese army occupy it later.
More than fifty of the 100 75mm artillery pieces supported by the National Defense Force have been in place. At the same time, more than 20,000 shells have arrived. These artillery pieces have been dispatched to the garrison troops in Nanjing City.
Unfortunately, Chiang Zhongzheng did not know that this group of artillery Tu Qianjun was actually prepared for his troops. The troops of more than 3,400 people were divided into four groups and entered Nanjing City from different directions and different identities.
With the help of everywhere, he lurked and worked like ordinary businessmen - they were originally from workers and businessmen, which was the true performance.
In the three northeastern provinces, the National Defense Forces took out various firearms that they had reserved for a long time, especially the Tiger assault rifles, and all of them were equipped to the front-line troops. The replaced weapons were sent to Chi Se's hands.
These include some rifles, light and heavy machine guns, mortars, mountain cannons, field cannons... and so on! All of them are equipped with new weapons and large-caliber artillery.
The newly developed and improved rocket launcher in the three northeastern provinces is a Storm 75 type 40-pipe self-propelled rocket launcher modified from the original Minsheng brand 7.5-ton truck. This rocket vehicle is equipped with a rocket with a caliber of 122.4 mm, with a maximum range of 15 kilometers and a rate of fire of 40 rounds and 1820 seconds. The range can reach 405 kilometers!
However, Tu Qianjun did not assign them to active troops, but directly organized them to be the most secret mobile troops in the three northeastern provinces for use. For the outside world, it was called "The Second Artillery Force directly under the National Defense Force."
From Fengtian's headquarters to Yunnan in the south, all the troops under the National Defense Forces entered a level one combat readiness state! The soldiers who had experienced the training of non-commissioned officers of the National Defense Forces were as green as hungry wolves, waiting for their superiors to order and began to fight!
The Japanese army is also with green eyes like the National Defense Forces! Whether it is the Army Air Force stationed in North Korea or the Army Combattals, they are ready to completely annihilate the National Defense Forces!
"Tiger of the Far East?! I made him a dead dog in the Far East! Tell you, my goal is to cut off his head and make a chamber pot! Hahaha..."
This is the remark of Fumisaburo Kawakishiki, the leader of the 20th Division stationed in North Korea, to his subordinates. At the same time, he also said: "I want to take back all the interests of Manchuria and Mongolia, which originally belonged to the empire! Only those idiots will throw away these interests! The stupid politicians are dead, so the rest will be done by our loyal soldiers of His Majesty the Emperor!"
Fumisaburo Kawakishiki graduated from the 15th class of the Army Officer School and the 23th class of the Army University. In August 1931, he was promoted to major general of the Army and was appointed as an officer of the military officer. ** became the commander of the 11th Brigade and was a lieutenant general of the Army in August 1935.
Subsequently, the performance of each department in North Korea really made the military headquarters very dissatisfied! So the new lieutenant general, who was considered "brave and courageous", was assigned to work in North Korea.
In fact, Fumisaburo Kawakishi is not a fool either. He also talked about these things with Ishihara Kanir. According to his opinion, he was too careless at the time, which made the National Defense Force take advantage of loopholes.
Now, even if the National Defense Forces have developed, the industrial level is still very different from Japan! So, what Japan needs to do is to use its industrial advantages to directly flood the three northeastern provinces like a tide!
Therefore, whether for the security of the empire or to defeat or delay the National Defense Forces, Japan should be under heavy troops under the North Korean troops! Especially new combat vehicles, flying troops, etc., must not be left behind!
Then, a large number of offensive fortifications are built! As for manpower, what do the North Koreans do?! They are naturally the best coolies!
In Ishihara's view, this method is undoubtedly a very good and safe way. It uses permanent fortifications, fighter jets and chariot troops to and hold the National Defense Forces. The least it can at least resist them from threatening the Japanese mainland.
So he and Fumisaburo Kawakita studied a feasible plan and handed it over to Prince Ichimiya Temple. Ichimiya Temple is famous for not caring about it. I signed it directly when I saw that it was my confidant's report handed over by him and didn't read it.
After receiving this report, the entire Japanese army began to operate. First, the North Korean garrison began to arrest people everywhere! A large number of offensive permanent fortifications were built around the 38th Line.
But the mines were not used, because in the eyes of Ishihara Kanir and Fumisaburo Kawakishi, they may not be able to attack the National Defense Forces. It will be troublesome to clean up the mines by themselves at that time. Moreover, North Korea's interests are long-term in their opinion. It is not advisable to use landmines like landmines.
These naturally cannot escape the eyes and ears of the National Defense Forces. Tu Qianjun, who received the news, and the commander of the North Korean Military Region, Lin Bao, and others couldn't help but sneer! These Japanese are really looking for death!
Especially Tu Qianjun, he smiled coldly and terrifyingly! Now the dress-up of the National Defense Force includes heavy machine guns. The new heavy machine gun is a new 14.5-caliber heavy machine gun secretly developed by Jia Xiaohou, Shen Hong and others under the strong request of Tu Qianjun!
This heavy machine gun is called the "Banii 14.5mm dual heavy machine gun" with a caliber of 14.5! It can be shot high and flat, and the effective range of high and high shooting can reach 2,000 meters. It can be shot flat and 1,000 meters!
But Tu Qianjun knew that this machine gun was not that simple!
In late February 1979, the Guangxi Front Army, which was at the time of self-defense counterattack, had already attacked Tongdeng City, an important town in northern Vietnam, and the Vietnamese side retreated to the "Pingding Mountain" solid fortress group in the southeast of Tongdeng City.
The fortress group is about 120m long from east to west, 60-70m wide from north to south, and the inner part is the upper, middle and lower three layers, with a wall thickness of 1-1.5m. It is made of steel rails, steel bars, pebbles, cement, etc.
There are more than 300 perforations on the surrounding walls, and large bunkers are built at four corners. The surface position is built with circular trenches and fireworks, equipped with 3 82mm recoil-free cannons, 3 anti-aircraft machine guns, 9 light and heavy machine guns, and the surface position is about 150 Vietnamese troops. The fortress is under the cover of firepower from the highlands in the south, making it extremely easy to defend and difficult to attack.
At that time, the first and second attacks of the Guangxi Front were both blocked.
The last time I was fierce, I had all the firepower! I was given 3 85mm cannons, and the most important protagonist of the recoil-free cannon 3: 4 14.5mm double anti-aircraft machine guns! When I launched the war, I took off with a very smooth attack!
The veteran who participated in this battle was later an old acquaintance of Tu Qianjun. He recalled at the dinner table and said: How miserable is this monkey! Junzi, you haven’t seen it! This man has been beaten into pieces! It’s covered with walls.
There was no living person in the entire fortress group. The 14.5 gun made the wall sieve, and you could collapse if you pushed it...
Tu Qianjun couldn't help but feel chilled, but later he actually verified it. In a South American battle, a drug lord relied on his fortress as a stone castle left by the former colonists, and he reinforced it with steel and cement to decide to resist to the end.
Tu Qianjun did not hesitate and directly asked the attacking party to transfer five 14.5mm machine guns to sweep the castle! After coming down a few times, people charged! After they entered, the murderous guerrillas could not spit it!
As Tu Qianjun's old friend said, the walls were filled with piles of minced meat! The blood and brains were spread all over the ground like they were not worth money! It was extremely miserable.
How could Tu Qianjun do you want to enjoy such a big killer weapon for the Japanese? Besides, this thing will definitely hit those Japanese armored vehicles! There is basically no escape!
Unfortunately, Tu Qianjun did not know whether the Japanese army had modified their own tanks! The 50mm front armor and the 14.5 heavy machine gun could penetrate, but it was still a question.
Japan didn't know that Tu Qianjun, a strange opponent, still believed that the National Defense Forces used at most fighters with similar performance as the Type 97 light explosion aircraft.
In terms of tanks, they felt that their armor should not be thick enough! If it was thick enough, they would not suffer any loss. The two sides did not know each other well, but they thought they were able to walk slowly towards the death.
On June 18, 1937, all Japanese troops welcomed the general order issued by the military headquarters! Each unit held an emergency meeting, with the commander-in-chief of the garrisons in various places and the commander of the army in various aspects personally attending! After receiving the order, everyone was happy!
"You guys! After His Highness, Prince Xiangongyuan personally requested His Majesty the Emperor, he received his approval! We are about to be the first executors of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Circle established by the empire!"
The person who spoke was the Japanese general of the army who was originally assigned to the reserve service - Naochi Sugino! Originally, this old guy planned to live his life at home, but unfortunately, the position of the North Korean garrison must first be a qualified future.
Secondly, the most important thing is that no general is willing to come here to serve as commander. The reason is very simple. There are many lieutenant generals at all levels who fell to the hands of the tiger! If you fall to the hands of others when you are about to fall, it will be a shameful situation!
Therefore, everyone refused to go to North Korea to work. In desperation, the Ichimiya Inn thought of this general, who was in the 13th period of the Susano Naoichi Army University, and also served as the chief of the Infantry Section of the Military Affairs Bureau and the supporting position of the Education Director.
It wasn't long before I entered the reserve service, but it was only in 1928! It's not old now, so it's okay to use it! Therefore, the black pot fell on Sugino's head.
He couldn't help but refuse to accept this, because the Immortal Courtyard directly took the action first and then reported it! He found Hirohito and took the appointment, and then sent it to Suanno Sakaichi! So, even though he knew that this was a chance of being unlucky, Suanno Sakaichi had to pinch his nose and admit it.
"Your Majesty has an order! The entire army will make final preparations! On July 7, the entire army will launch a war against China! We will strive to fully occupy China within March to one year!"
Chapter completed!
