Four hundred and thirteenth chapters of the Japanese army's ruthless move
Fujita is in trouble, and the attack is not just not attacking, but his problem is not just that he thinks about it himself. Now he has joined another person, the Central China Front Army. To be honest, Hata Shunrok has wiped out Matsui Ishigen's decadent momentum since taking office. He is very powerful in the Xuzhou battlefield. In the face of two people, Matsui Ishigen was in trouble. After a series of blows, Matsui Ishigen had to face the resignation to alleviate the crisis of the entire base camp.
Hata Shunji's understanding of the 318th Army was learned from the information, and his feelings were obviously not as strong as Matsui Ishione who was in his position at that time. Although they killed several heavyweights, in Hata Shunji's opinion, the component of luck was also very important. Of course, Hata Shunji would not deny the strong combat power of the 318th Army, otherwise the Japanese army would not have such a headache.
But knowing that it is one thing, and real experience is another thing. The first day of the first day, almost 8,000 people were lost. This made General Hata Shin-six couldn't help but feel frightened from the bottom of his heart. If so, the entire Sixth Division plus the Hata Detachment was finished in just a few days. They were chopping melons and vegetables. By then, the position of commander-in-chief of the Central China Front Army, who had just settled, would also change his course.
Such a huge number of deaths, even in the entire Xuzhou battle, could not have happened compared to those small fights. The battle was unusually tragic at least from Fujita Jin's report. Hata Shunji understood this way. Seeing Fujita Jin's casualties reported by the Chinese side, he not only thought about whether the casualties were true.
Because Fujita's report of Chinese casualties was more than 3,000 people. Hata Shunji means that Fujita's report was too conservative? In fact, the death of the entire Chinese side was just over 1,300 people. Fujita's report of 3,000 people was already gilded on his face, but Hata Shunji still felt very dissatisfied.
Although Hata Shunji knows that the 318th Army is strong in combat, he still thinks that Japan's overall strength is very strong, so he feels that the casualty ratio of 1:2 is still a bit unacceptable to his hope of the casualty ratio of 1:1. In Hata Shunji's opinion, the 1:1 casualty ratio is enough to make the Chinese army proud and proud, but all this is just Hata Shunji's own idea. In fact, Hata Shunji also knows that the casualty ratio of 1:2 is considered an excellent result in the entire battle with the 318th Army.
The question now is whether Tongcheng should take it, how to win it, whether to continue to increase troops or not attack Fujita's advice to Shinji Hata, he explained his views and did not attack. After conquering Wuhan, he sieges Tongcheng Hata Hata Shinji Hata at first thought that this idea was good, but then he had to shake his head when he thought about it. In this way, the focus of the Wuhan battle changed from Wuhan to Tongcheng, and he had lost their original established plan. This plan, let alone the base camp disagrees with it, even he had to shake his head.
However, according to the current situation in Tongcheng, the losses of taking Tongcheng with a strong attack are undoubtedly very heavy. The aircraft cannot bomb the internal forces, which leads to the loss of the Japanese army's greatest advantage. Six aircraft are also a bit painful for Hata Shunroku. Who doesn't know that the aircraft is one of the ultimate killing weapons of the Japanese army. Once the aircraft cannot play their due role, the Japanese army's advantage will be reduced by at least one third in an instant.
Except for the lack of heavy weapons such as aircraft and tanks, the defense of all is almost impossible to leak. If you have aircraft and tanks, you can't play a role. What's the difference between not having these. If there is really no, there will be no so many ideas. But now the Japanese army holds cards in their hands, but they dare not use them. This is what makes the Japanese army distressed.
Hata Shunruo attacked Tsukada, the chief of staff of the North China Front Army, on the side: Tsukada, do you think we have strategically given up on Tongcheng and moved from Henan in China to Hubei to take Wuhan?
As the chief of staff, Tsukada Ota naturally had to make plans for Hata Toshirou, so he said slowly: General, our original plan is to advance from Tongcheng to Hubei, and continue to disperse the strength of the Chinese army. But now we give up Tongcheng, so that the Chinese army can safely hoard Henan and fight with our army's life and death. The losses of our army will definitely not be small. In addition, due to the waterways on the south bank of the Yangtze River, its power is no longer as we had expected.
Hata Shunruo frowned slightly and said: Tsukada-kun means to continue attacking Tongcheng
Tsukata Oshi nodded and said: Yes, the General, the 318th Army is a flag in the entire China at present. As long as the 318th Army is not destroyed by us, then we will not be able to strike the Chinese people's will to resist, and we will not fundamentally attack the morale of the Chinese army. Moreover, the 318th Army assassinated His Highness the Prince of our Great Japanese Empire happened to our Central China Front Army. At this time, if you retreat, Commander, Commander.
Hata Shunji suddenly realized that he really didn't expect that there were so many twists and turns in it. The idea that Wakashi Shinji was a little loose was immediately denied by him. According to what Chief of Staff of Tsukada Attorney said, if Hata Shunji really gave up Kiryu Castle, then first of all, his prestige in the Central China Front Army would definitely be reduced; secondly, the imperial base camp would naturally not be satisfied; finally, the hatred of King Hirohiko Asakamami was the hatred of the entire Japanese Empire. Once Hata Shunji retreated, it would be a sign of fear of cowardice. If an imperial general who commanded so many troops was such a person, then Hata Shunji's career would probably end here.
Shinji Hata's forehead was sweating coldly, and then he took a deep breath and said: Tsukada's consideration is very considerate, but now we want to take down Tongcheng, and I am also very distressed.
Tsukada Tora smiled and said: There are naturally ways to break the enemy, but the international public opinion caused is quite bad.
Shinji Hata, what else do you care about international public opinion now? I hurriedly said: Tsukada Jun, please tell me
Recently, our secret army developed a shell called poison gas bomb Tsubakita attack Yin test. Hata Shunji was stunned when he heard it: Is there any necessary connection between poison gas bombs and siege?
Tsukata attacked: The Chinese army defended the city to the death. We don’t have any good ways to break the city now. Instead of doing this, it’s better to get them out and let them defend without any danger.
Hata Shunruo: This does lose its military style. Let me think carefully. Hata Shunruo naturally has his own ideas in his heart. Although poison gas bombs are a good thing, everything has two sides. Once the poison gas bomb is used, the next thing you will face is the discussion of the entire international public opinion.
Tsukada Oku only made a suggestion. He was very indifferent to the lives of the Chinese people. He felt that as long as he killed them, he could use any method to fight, it was originally an unscrupulous matter. This weapon was also carefully developed by the empire. If it could be used, it would naturally require an invisible crisis. It seemed that it was quietly approaching the 318th Army.
After thinking about it, there was no other way, so I could only nod and said: Otherwise, we will try this method.
Tsukada Oshi smiled and said: Everything is up to the general, so Tsukada Oshi naturally cannot take the blame for Tsukada Oshi. He thought of it. It is correct, but if he succeeds, his military achievements are like Tsukada Oshi. If he fails, he will be a scapegoat.
Shinji Hata didn't care. This matter was originally the suggestion of Tsukada Otsuki, so even if something happened, he would have a way out. Although the two discussed it, they were still thinking strangely.
The poison gas bomb is the most developed biochemical weapon by the Japanese army. It is very harmful to the human body. This weapon is explicitly prohibited in international conventions, but the Japanese army ignored it. They now have no way to break through Kiryu Castle and can only take a risk. Hata Shunji's decision quickly received support from the above.
The base camp hates the most for the 318th Army. It has made the entire Japan lose face. Today, His Majesty the Emperor is still resentful of the death of King Hirohiko Asakamami. Now that the traces of the 318th Army have been discovered, the base camp means to destroy the entire 318th Army at all costs in Tongcheng. As for what method Hata Shunruo uses, it is his own business. The base camp is looking at the final result. Obviously, the base camp does not want to bear this despicable crime.
There is a method, but it is still very difficult to implement. After making up his mind, Hata Shunji immediately contacted the secret troops of the Japanese Kwantung Army to provide them with the lethality data of the poison gas bombs. The Kwantung Army naturally cooperated very much. They quickly passed the entire poison gas bomb information to Hata Shunji's desk.
In Tongcheng, Wang Mingyu and others did not know that the Japanese army had already launched a series of plans for them. They were summarizing the results of the first day of combat. Now Tongcheng is solid. It is not an exaggeration to describe Wang Mingyu made a positive evaluation of the result of the war between the troops and the Japanese army. Then he hoped that they would continue to work hard and strive for great success.
The Japanese army was busy and busy. Hata Shunji had decided to use poison gas bombs to give the defenders of Tongcheng, so he did not hesitate to directly ask the Japanese Kanto Army to start transporting poison gas bombs to the Tongcheng area. However, there is no airtight wall in the world. Just when Hata Shunji was in contact with the Kanto Army, the people in the Military Control Commission also intercepted a report of poison gas bombs sent by the Kanto Army to the Central China Front Army.
The entire battle situation caused another uproar with this telegram. When the Military Commission sent the deciphered information to Chairman Jiang, the foreheads of the senior officials of the State Government were covered with black lines: the competition for flowers is so fierce, brothers, please support me and relax. Thank you.
