Chapter 246 It is impossible to guard against it!
With the changes in the war situation between Europe and Asia, Britain and the United States, which had previously had a good relationship with Japan, began to realize that the ambitions and appetites of these Japanese devils were increasing, and even began to think of their Asian colonies.
Taking advantage of this time the German army continued to win in Europe, but in contrast, the British and French coalition forces continued to lose. The Japanese man seemed to have more private contacts with the German army, which made Britain, France and other countries that originally supported them very unhappy.
When it comes to matters involving national interests, they quickly realized that if they want to suppress the arrogance of the Japanese army, they could only support a country or army in Asia that could compete with it.
This supported person is undoubtedly the Chinese government that is fighting against the Japanese army at this moment. However, given the current situation of the War of Resistance in China, countries such as Britain and the United States have gradually realized that the development of Chongqing is somewhat unsatisfactory.
On the contrary, Yan'an, which was not valued by them earlier, developed rapidly after the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan. Not only did it recover many lost territories, it also destroyed many elite Japanese troops, and its strength had surpassed Chongqing.
In view of this situation, the US military is undoubtedly the first country to have olive branches. As for the allies such as Britain and France, they are already having a headache to deal with their own wars now. Naturally, they are unable to help China.
Since the US military realized that their colonial interests in Asia might be infringed upon. As president, Roosevelt also hopes to take advantage of the outbreak of this European war to further expand the influence of the United States in the world.
Even in Roosevelt's plan, he hoped to extend his tentacles to Asia. As for Europe, he would not go to the muddy water for the time being. Only by continuously expanding the influence can his country continue to grow and grow.
Since he chose to support Yan'an and hoped that the Chinese battlefield could contain the Japanese army, Roosevelt naturally wanted to do something. The strategic materials for selling Japanese bowls were an important bargaining chip in Roosevelt's hands.
But for many consortiums, they are more concerned about the interests of their own consortiums. In the eyes of these consortiums, the longer they fight with China and Ribo, the better they can get along with each other and further expand their power to Asia.
In addition, interrupting the strategic materials sold to Ribo will undoubtedly cause losses to these wealth. When it comes to their own interests, they naturally have objections to the suggestions put forward by Roosevelt.
Even though Roosevelt has a high prestige in China, these consortiums have the same influence as parliament in China. If they do not agree with this suggestion, then Roosevelt will not be able to successfully implement the decision.
Now with the telegram sent by Major General Sam, the Japanese army actually used the reporters of Milijian to conduct an experiment. This is undoubtedly an absolutely intolerable thing for the Milijian people who advocate freedom and democracy.
The decision to use public opinion to implement this decision to interrupt the supply of materials was Roosevelt quickly after receiving the telegram. At this moment, the Soviet Union also seemed furious when it received the telegram from Yan'an.
Even if the senior Soviet leaders knew that many of the people who were secretly detained by the Japanese army were spies they sent to the Northeast. But now they were rescued and they learned that the Japanese army used their people to do experiments, they were naturally very angry.
Although the Soviet Union is close to the German army at present, when something is involved, the consuls of the Soviet, British and American countries in China are still conducting negotiations in private, hoping to successfully rescue those detained people.
In their opinion, if this matter is done well, it will be one of their contributions. In addition, with the help of this matter, they can also obtain more political benefits from the Japanese army.
After all, if such a thing is spread, I am afraid that Ribo will become notorious all over the world. Even if these politicians know that there are actually such secret research institutions in private in various countries. But if this matter is exposed, it will be a pain to beat the dog.
Given that the rescued expatriates of the country have not yet been safely out of danger, the consuls of the Three Kingdoms have also quickly appointed specialists to begin consultations with the Eighth Route Army Military Control Office, which is now stationed in Peiping, and have a series of contacts on this matter.
Faced with the cooperation that the consuls of the Three Kingdoms took the initiative to deliver to their homes, General Liu, as the head of Peking, was also very happy. At the same time, he also said that the Eighth Route Army would do all its strength to ensure the safety of the rescued personnel in the Three Kingdoms.
However, after the talks, General Liu also said in due time: "The commander of this rescue operation is General He Zhengdao of our Eighth Route Army. Now the one who protects your country's expatriates is also the rescue troops he assigned.
Now the Japanese army has launched a large-scale search in Black Province, and even dispatched troops stationed on the border to join the roundup sequence. From this operation, we can also know that they do not want this matter to be exposed. Therefore, we also hope for some assistance.
Yan'an had sent a telegram to contact the Soviet Far East Army. We also know that the Soviet Union and Japan have signed an armistice agreement. But we also hope that the big brother can help in this matter."
Faced with the opinions conveyed by General Liu, or the ideas that He Zheng said, the Soviet consul in China was naturally difficult to refuse. After all, the Eighth Route Army also helped in the battle between Nomenhan and the Kwantung Army in the previous period.
Now, a large part of the hostages rescued by the Eighth Route Army are their people. If you don’t help with this matter, it will be a little bit ridiculous. For this reason, after asking for advice from the country, the senior Soviet leaders also expressed that they could cooperate.
To this end, on the third day after the war in Kazakhstan, the Kwantung Army troops stationed on the border were soon discovered that the Soviet Far Eastern Army had some abnormal movements, and some armored troops stationed in the rear were also advancing towards the border.
Once the news was reported, Mei Jijiro also said with a headache: "Baga! I said that the Soviets were not trustworthy. It was only how long we signed an armistice agreement with them, but they actually tore up the agreement and deployed heavy troops to the border again."
The Japanese Consul in the Soviet Union also urgently summoned diplomats from the Soviet Union. Regarding the protests of the Japanese Consul, the Soviet diplomats said bluntly: "This is a normal exercise of the Far East Army, and there is no need to inform your army!"
Seeing the Japanese diplomat still quarreling and refusing to give up, the diplomat said with a cold expression: "Since you know that our two countries have signed an armistice agreement, what's going on with the 731 Unit?
Don't think that now we have no evidence, you can deny everything. What I want to tell you is that once our nation is successfully rescued, you must give our country a reasonable explanation about the matter of the 731st Army."
As soon as these words were spoken, the Japanese diplomat seemed a little speechless. When the news reached the Kanto Army Headquarters, Mei Jiro also had a headache. He knew that the thing he was most worried about finally happened.
If the Soviet Far East Army once again increased its troops to the border, the Kwantung Army once again felt the pressure of the restart of the war. Then the protests sent by Britain and the United States made the ministers of the Japanese cabinet very troubled.
There are not many cabinet ministers who know about the matters of the 731st Unit. But the ministers who know about it know what the 731st Unit is engaged in. If such a thing is caught, it is a shameful thing.
The Japanese side who felt that they could not admit this matter would naturally not easily admit this. But at the same time, the Japanese side's cabinet also instructed the Kwantung Army to capture and even execute those fleeing foreign hostages on the spot.
For a moment, the Japanese army in Black Province became busier. Earlier, the troops mobilized from the border to participate in the search began to re-install defenses in the border areas to ensure that the hostages did not escape from their noses to the Soviet army.
Just when the Kwantung Army stationed in Hei Province was transferred to the border area in large numbers, the 1st Division of the 5th Column of the East Ye, which had already gathered and stood on standby, officially launched an attack on Qiqihar. Even overnight, the Japanese army lost three county towns.
As soon as the news came out, the Kwantung Army Command was also shocked. Mei Jiro said in disbelief: "What were you saying? The Eighth Route Army is attacking Qiqihar, or is it an elite unit of tens of thousands of people?"
‘Yes, Commander! According to the telegram sent by the Qiqihar defenders, a large number of Eighth Route Army troops were indeed found in their defense areas. Many of the troops stationed in the local area were attacked by them.’
‘Baga! How could the Eighth Route Army have such a huge army there? Damn, what does the local garrison make for? So many main forces of the Eighth Route Army are hidden under their noses, so why don’t they know?’
As the Fifth Column launched an attack in Qiqihar, the troops had been transferred to the Kwantung Army, which was deployed outside Harbin City, could only re-transfer these troops, hoping to curb the Eighth Route Army's attack in Qiqihar area.
As a result, the number of troops stationed in Heilongjiang Province that could be used for hunting was greatly reduced. The special division combat teams that had already sneaked into Heilongjiang Province also began to ignite wars in various places in Heilongjiang Province, causing the local garrison to deal with.
Even though Mei Jiro had realized that the Far East Army's abnormal actions were intended to restrain their troops stationed on the border. But in this case, he did not dare to transfer the troops back.
No one can guarantee whether the Soviet Far Eastern Army will make a cross-border attack after being transferred back to the troops stationed on the border. For this reason, if we want to eliminate the Eighth Route Army in Qiqihar, we can only rely on the garrison in Hei Province to solve the problem by ourselves.
At this time, even if the Kwantung Army wants to draw more troops into Black Province, it is afraid it will be powerless. The reason is very simple. After the rescue operation in Harbin City was over, the railway from Harbin City to Kyrgyzstan Province was blown up for many sections.
I don’t know how much time it takes to repair these railways alone. If there is no railway transportation force, I’m afraid that the daylily will be cold when the troops pass by.
Faced with the sudden decay of the Black Province, Mei Jiro also realized that the Kwantung Army's Japanese army this year would not be very good. These elusive Eighth Route Army are really hard to defend against!
