Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 2145 General Nanjiro's scheming

General Nanjiro, the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, was shocked and angry by this cold order from Prince Zaihito, the chief of general staff of the base camp and commander-in-chief of the Far East campaign. When he calmed down, he did not believe that he could be the same as Miuchi Yoneuchi. Your Excellency, Prince Zai Ren, who is fighting at the top of the imperial world, would so blatantly borrow a knife to kill someone, it's so cool!

Since it is not to kill someone with a borrowed knife, what is the purpose of Prince Zai Ren? In the same way, Prince Zai Ren, who is known for his cleverness and cleverness, will not do anything in vain!

General Nanjiro's thoughts shuttled through his mind like lightning. Looking at the entire Far East battlefield, he thought of the Far East Dispatch Army and the North Korean garrison troops who had left Manchuria and rushed to rescue the Kwantung Army. After entering the Far East region, they mysteriously has lost its trace, and then think about it, Zhukov's troops have shown signs of withdrawing from the battlefield in recent days, and the previous order ordered the Kwantung Army to launch a counterattack. Many factors combined, General Nanjiro's eyes gradually became suspicious. Liang came forward, and he seemed to have seen through Prince Zai Ren's clever move, and it was even more ruthless.

Prince Zai Ren wanted to encircle Zhukov's Far Eastern Front Army on the current battlefield. In General Nanjiro's mind, a three-dimensional picture was sketched. Together with the Kwantung Army troops and the three armies of the Empire of Japan, Zhukov's army would be surrounded. The Far Eastern Front Army was encircled on the plain battlefield between the Burya Mountains and the Kukan Mountains. So, for the Japanese Empire, this was an unprecedented and huge victory!

From this, the Kwantung Army can also take revenge and recover the blood debt of more than one million Kwantung Army soldiers from the Soviets. Without Prince Zai Ren's layout, the Kwantung Army can only watch with gritted teeth based on its own strength. Zhukov's troops, after massacring the Kwantung Army soldiers, left the battlefield in the Far East peacefully. The Kwantung Army could not miss such an opportunity.

After calculating all this, General Nanjiro began to weigh the pros and cons of the Kwantung Army's participation in this major battle. On the surface, given the current situation of the Kwantung Army, investing all its troops and actively attacking the Soviet army was almost seeking death. In reality. Taking into consideration Prince Zain's Far East campaign plan, we are not so pessimistic.

The reason why Prince Zai Ren issued such an order was because he was afraid that Zhukov's troops would withdraw from the Far East battlefield early and lose the opportunity and favorable conditions for encirclement. Zhukov could do this, and the other two troops were still rushing on their way. The only ones entangled in Zhukov's troops were the Kwantung Army troops, who were now exhausted. Prince Zai Ren was helpless, and he knew the consequences of doing so.

The Kwantung Army's attack cannot last too long. Therefore, the Far East Expeditionary Force and the North Korean troops stationed in India must be ordered to travel day and night to arrive as quickly as possible. Otherwise, once the Kwantung Army's offensive fails, not only Zhukov All troops will withdraw from the Far East battlefield, and the remaining troops of the Kwantung Army will be brought in. Prince Zai Ren still cannot afford such consequences!

In other words, the Kwantung Army only needs to maintain its offensive posture for two or three days, which is enough. General Nanjiro carefully weighed the consequences of doing so and concluded that with the Kwantung Army's existing strength, Sustaining a full-line offensive for two or three days is not a problem. Of course, after this battle, the remaining Kwantung Army troops will probably be less than one-fifth of what they were during the period of total victory. However, big risks also mean big rewards.

Next, what General Nanjiro has to consider is the issue of rewards. If Zhukov's Far Eastern Front Army is completely wiped out in the Far East, the biggest contributors will not be Prince Zain, who is commanding from the center, nor the Far East Expeditionary Army and the Korean Resident Army.

, but the price paid by the Kwantung Army in each round and the length of bloody battles by the superior Soviet army were incomparable to that force. Neither His Majesty the Emperor nor the base camp could turn a blind eye to this.

Next, the Kwantung Army will receive the greatest reward for its efforts. More importantly, Prince Zai Ren not only represents the base camp, but also represents His Majesty the Emperor. If he disobeys orders, Prince Zai Ren will openly punish him.

It is reasonable to replace the Commander-in-Chief of the Kwantung Army with their own reasons and excuses, but it is even worse. If this important position falls into the hands of Prince Zairen and his family, wouldn’t it be a disservice to Mi?

Biggest blow to cabinet?

Nanjiro still had a little bit of his own thoughts in his heart. As an important general of the Imperial Japanese Army fighting overseas, General Ito Genzaburo, the commander-in-chief of the Empire's Southwest Pacific Expeditionary Force, fought vigorously and smoothly.

Going with the flow, the Allied forces were scurrying away and were in a defensive state. He was also a general commanding more than one million imperial troops. Could he be worse than that guy Ito?

What's more, Ito Genzaburo is a general of Prince Zaihito's line, and he cannot be compared to him. Moreover, the Far East battlefield is absolutely different from the Australian battlefield. Once the Kwantung Army plays a key role in the Far East campaign,

Not only can you get revenge, but it can also make you famous. Therefore, General Nanjiro came to the conclusion that although there are risks in executing orders, there are more benefits!

In just a short period of ten minutes, General Nanjiro almost exhausted all his efforts and thought as fast as breaking bones and sucking marrow. When he came to the conclusion, he was quite exhausted mentally and physically. And when General Nanjiro was thinking about the fate of the Kwantung Army,

, while countless brain cells were being exhausted, just when the other Kwantung Army generals were preparing to take action against Lieutenant General Shinno Ryuaki, there were several young officers with their command swords mostly unsheathed.

General Nanjiro's half-closed eyes suddenly opened, and a cold light flashed through, "Well——!" Full of coercion, he squeezed out a sound from his throat, and waved his right hand forcefully and briefly, as if

It was like a magical force. A dozen senior officers of the Kwantung Army with their swords drawn and murderous looks on their faces immediately retreated. The murderous spirit in the headquarters was completely eliminated in an instant!

Lieutenant General Shinno Ryūzhao felt as if he had just walked through the gates of hell. His whole body was limp and weak, his face was covered with cold sweat, and his throat was dry. He knew very well that the murderous intent just now seemed to be substantial and was by no means a threat. The Kwantung Army and the like

Guy, you really want to kill yourself!

There was a hint of sarcasm on the corner of General Nanjiro's mouth. He looked at the generals who were full of dissatisfaction but absolutely obeyed his orders. He nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Lieutenant General Shinno Ryuaki with a gentle but gentle tone.

But he said without any respect: "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, you are the representative of Commander-in-Chief Zai Ren. I would like to hear your opinion on this order from His Highness the Prince?"

Originally, General Nanjiro's words were unnecessary. As long as he made his own decision, it was fine. This guy Shinno was nothing. However, since he decided to carry out the order of Prince Zairen, then it was appropriate to treat this insignificant Chief of Staff.

To show some respect, at least on the surface, no one can find fault. The relationship between superiors and subordinates still needs to be paid attention to. Moreover, General Nanjiro is also extremely dissatisfied with Prince Zain.

If you have any plans, send me a telegram and explain it clearly. We have discussed it for a while and there are no problems anymore. It would be better for you to keep it secretive and pretend to be mysterious, as if you are afraid that I will know. If you don't understand it,

If you realize the deep meaning behind the order and refuse to carry it out, or don't do your best, I'm afraid His Highness the Prince's drama will not be able to go on, and I'll keep it for later, so that you, Prince Zain, won't be able to catch you at all!

This shows the importance of communication. Although we are not just donkeys grazing in the same trough, nor can we say we have a good impression of each other, after all, we are both soldiers of the Empire of Japan, and we both serve His Majesty the Emperor, so we have a little bit of affection for each other.

, There is really no need to do this whole trick, but I still want to give you Prince Zai Ren enough face. Why don’t you ask for the opinion of Chief of Staff Shinye!

Lieutenant General Shinno Ryuaki was suddenly startled. This sudden respect from General Nanjiro obviously caught him by surprise. If it had been only twenty minutes ago, Lieutenant General Shinno, who had a sense of superiority as an imperial envoy, would not have hesitated.

He said, "What do you think? Since the Commander-in-Chief has issued an order, as Imperial Guardsmen, we shall execute it without hesitation! Even if we die in battle, we will sacrifice our lives for the Empire of Japan. It is the duty of Imperial Guardsmen to

Just divide it!”

But the scene that just happened scared the courage of Lieutenant General Shinno. These Kwantung Army generals who were so bloody on the battlefield really dared to kill themselves. It was not fake, even though Nanjiro asked for his help.

Opinion, but look at his half-smiling look.

The slightest respect for myself as the chief of staff of the headquarters is obviously just a formality. If I don't know the humor anymore and still put on a high profile, maybe that sentence is wrong and chokes the lungs of the Kwantung Army.

Guanzi, when the time comes, no one can save yourself!

Lieutenant General Shinno still understood the principle that disaster comes from the mouth. It is better to say nothing than to say nothing. Lieutenant General Shinno knew the right measure, smiled modestly, and said: "Nanji-kun is joking, you are the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army.

As I bear the full command responsibility, I am only responsible for observing the progress of the battle. I will not interfere with the combat command of the Kwantung Army. It is better for Nanji-kun to make his own decision on such a major matter!"

What he said was so slippery that it sounded so good that he even picked it off cleanly. General Nanjiro couldn't help but smile and thought to himself: "No wonder it is said that every time you take a step, you will gain wisdom. It seems that this Chief of Staff Shinno just now

After eating it, I learned a lot!"

The words of Lieutenant General Shinno Ryuaki also made most of the Kwantung Army generals who had not dissipated their resentment towards him be stunned, as if they did not recognize him. They looked at the guy who was showing off his arrogance as the Chief of Staff of the headquarters more than 20 minutes ago. At the same time,

, I also heard that Commander-in-Chief Nanjiro wanted to carry out that ruthless guy Zai Ren’s plan to kill with a borrowed knife!

It was the Kwantung Army major general who was the first to take action to kill Lieutenant General Nitsuno, and said anxiously: "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, please think twice. This is related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army soldiers. You cannot...

...You can’t have your own way!”
