Age of Conquest Reborn

Hearing the division commander's thoughtful repetition of the name of General Umezu Yoshijiro, the new commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe and Communications Director Chen Feng all felt a little strange. This Umezu Yoshijiro had not been with the Independent Division before.

The troops fought against each other, and a new unfamiliar face appeared. The Independent Division Intelligence Office had no information on this person. The division commander seemed to be very familiar with this new commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army?

Zhao Yuhe couldn't help but ask: "Sir, are you familiar with Umezu Yoshijiro?"

Tang Qiuli smiled. Of course he was familiar with it. In the history of World War II in later generations, this person had a place as the senior commander of the Japanese army that invaded China. The infamous "Ho-Mei Agreement" was driven by this person and forced the people at that time to

He Yingqin, Chairman of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government and the Peking Military Branch, signed in Tanggu, Tianjin. The main contents of the agreement are:

First, cancel all Kuomintang party headquarters in Hebei Province, and Kuomintang members cease all activities in Hebei Province. Second, withdraw the 51st Army of the Northeast Army, the Kuomintang Central Army and the Third Military Police Regiment of the Kuomintang stationed in Hebei Province. Third, dissolve the Kuomintang.

The Political Training Section of the Peking Army Branch and intelligence organizations such as Blue Clothes Society and Inspired Society. Fourth, remove Hebei Provincial Chairman Yu Xuezhong. Fifth, ban all anti-Japanese groups and activities, and assist the Japanese army in North China to suppress anti-Japanese forces and organizations.

After the signing of the Ho-Mei Agreement, the door to North China was opened, and the key areas of Beijing and Tianjin were completely exposed to Japanese bayonets. The Nationalist Government lost all its interests in North China. This also laid the foundation for the "July 7th Incident" launched by the Japanese army.

The foreshadowing was laid, and the news spread. Public opinion throughout the country was in an uproar, public resentment was boiling, and the call for punishing the traitors was growing day by day. One of the protagonists, He Yingqin, was also forced to step down sadly.

At that time, Chairman Chiang Kai-shek of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, in order to quell public dissatisfaction and public opinion, had to accuse He Yingqin. After dismissing this person, he was kept in cold storage for more than a year, and was not reactivated until the full-scale outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War.

On the contrary, Umezu Yoshijiro became a hero in the eyes of the Japanese because he secured the maximum benefits for Japan from the Nationalist Government. He was promoted to the Deputy Minister of Military Affairs of the Ministry of War at the base camp, and he was the same as the Ministry of War who took office in March of the same year.

The minister, General Juichi Terauchi, and General Binzan Moto, who took office as director of education at the base camp six months later, formed another core of the Japanese Army and formed the new unified faction of the Japanese Army. They became powerful figures in the Japanese Army.

This person boasts that he has never been involved in politics. He also disdains to participate in any political factions. He maintains a detached attitude among the Japanese army with many factions. He seems to abide by the traditional habits of the Japanese army, but he has a paranoid hobby for military power. He is a typical example

He is a militarist who advocates force and has a strong sense of external expansion and aggression. However, it is undeniable that his military command ability is far superior to that of Nanjiro.

However, because of the unexpected appearance of Tang Qiuli, which changed the direction of history, Umezu Yoshijiro's brilliant achievements no longer had a stage to display. The "Ho-Mei Agreement" was not signed, and the Japanese army was driven out of North China. This man is still

He stayed in Japan and served as the Undersecretary for Military Affairs of the Ministry of War.

Tang Qiuli had no way of knowing the inside story of Yi Shuai of the Kwantung Army. Based on his understanding of Nanjiro and Umezu Yoshijiro, he believed that in comparison, Umezu Yoshijiro was easier to deal with. At least, this person would not do anything worth tens of thousands.

Hundreds of thousands of Japanese expatriates committed suicide bombs,

During the period when Nanjiro was controlling the Northeast, he used political methods first and then military methods, which was very powerful. Among them, his best friend in the Northeast and one of the leaders of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, General Yang Jingyu, was during the period when Nanjiro was the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army.

, who died heroically for his country.

Every time he thought about it, Tang Qiuli still felt a sharp pain and regret in his heart. The general's demeanor was also vivid in his mind. The two troops also fought side by side to severely defeat the troops of the traitor Shao Benliang in Southern Manchuria. When he learned the news that the general had died for his country, he

Apart from regretting it, I can't help but blame myself. If the Bloody Hands had entered the pass and tried their best to persuade the general to pass, could this outcome have been changed?

In fact, this is just Tang Qiuli's own wishful thinking. With the general's personality and party spirit, he would not be able to fight on the battlefield of White Mountain and Black Water in the Northeast unless he was transferred. From another perspective, the general's sacrifice for his country also exempted him.

What a big trouble!

The independent division started the campaign to regain the Northeast. Comprehensively regaining the Northeast is the established goal, and it is completely achievable. When the entire Northeast is liberated, if General Yang, on behalf of the Communist Party, requests to exercise the authority to manage the Northeast, how should he respond?

?

The Northeast is one of his must-win goals, and of course he will not hand it over to the Communists. Will he still have a military encounter with the general by then? Now, this huge trouble no longer exists. He and other leaders of the Northeast Resistance Alliance,

There is no intersection, and the Anti-League was suppressed by Nanjiro until it was dying. Speaking of which, we still have to thank Nanjiro?

Tang Qiuli felt funny at his ridiculous idea. His only regret was that he did not let Nanjiro return to Japan in defeat. He also lost the opportunity to avenge the general. Instead of a politician-type opponent, a new one came.

Rivals who advocate force, the history of Japanese occupation of Northeast China will end in the hands of Umezu Yoshijiro!

At this moment, his thinking was chaotic and complicated, "I didn't expect that this notorious Japanese general would eventually fight against me. This man is obsessed with attacking. Compared with Nanjiro, he will obviously expose more weaknesses of the Kwantung Army."

Come on, the trajectory of history is sometimes very stubborn!" Tang Qiuli was immersed in the memories of later generations.

"Commander! Commander! What are you thinking about?" Zhao Yuhe's shout awakened Tang Qiuli from his memories. He smiled to himself and said: "Our opponent has been replaced, but it cannot change the current situation in Northeast China.

situation, but compared to Nanjiro, I am still willing to deal with Umezu Yoshijiro! As soon as this person arrived in the Northeast, he made such a big move as the Liaodong Peninsula Counterattack. This person is not willing to be lonely!"

"That's fine. If he hadn't broken the deadlock in the Northeast first and regained the time when the Northeast Campaign was launched, it would have been delayed for some time. Yu He, I rushed to Dalian overnight to set up the Liaodong Peninsula Campaign Headquarters. You stay here.

Lu, is responsible for commanding the directly affiliated corps!"

Zhao Yuhe was shocked. In the Northeast battlefield, from every aspect, the Western Liaoning Corridor and the Western Manchuria area were the top priority. The main force of the Kwantung Army was all gathered here. If they did not fight, it would be nothing. If they fought, it would be a big war

A decisive battle, the Liaodong Peninsula battlefield, is a secondary direction from every aspect, but the division commander has to leave at this time. Isn't it a little thoughtless?

Zhao Yuhe dissuaded: "Commander, the focus of the Northeast battlefield is in western Liaoning and western Manchuria. I personally think that you should not leave Kailu and go to Dalian at this time. Are you putting the cart before the horse?"

Tang Qiuli shook his head with a smile and said: "Yuhe, the key to starting the Northeast battlefield lies in the Liaodong Peninsula. Moreover, the troops assembled in the Liaodong Peninsula in front of us come from three corps and require careful coordination and command. What's more, we have changed

My opponent, Han Tie, is not familiar with Umezu Yoshijiro's style of play, so I'm afraid he won't be able to grasp the overall situation. In this way, I took Ge Zhenzhuang to Dalian to form a capable staff team, with most of the staff under my command, and still stay in Kailu!"

"Yu He, the burden on your shoulders is not light. Once the situation in our favor appears on the Liaodong Peninsula battlefield, the campaign to regain the Northeast will begin. You staying in Kailu and coordinating from the center will also help me grasp the overall situation.

That’s it!”

Seeing that Zhao Yuhe could not change the division commander's decision, he stopped dissuading him and went out to find Ge Zhenzhuang, the director of the General Staff Division, for arrangements. However, he always believed that the battlefield on the Liaodong Peninsula did not require the division commander to personally command. Major General Han Tie, commander of the Marine Corps,

, is fully qualified for this position. He doesn’t understand why the division commander is so enthusiastic about the Liaodong Peninsula?

Tang Qiuli called Shan Hu over and ordered: "Huzi, please arrange a flight immediately. We will leave in an hour. In addition, inform Mei Ting and Liu Xinlan that they will stay in Kailu Division while Mei Xue follows me to Dalian."

, let Mei Ting pack my things with me!"

Shan Hu blinked his eyes and said, "Isn't this bad? Leave Director Mei and Staff Liu behind, and they won't have any objections! What I mean is, take them all with you. There is room on the plane anyway!"

Tang Qiuli was very happy, "Why are you talking so much nonsense! I am going to command the war, not traveling with my wife. Besides, I can't stay in Dalian for a few days, so go quickly!"

In the backyard, the three women who received the notification from the special forces were in the room, packing Tang Qiuli's things. Mei Ting was used to it, but Liu Xinlan didn't quite understand. She was busy with her hands and complained with a pout: "

Sister Ting, why didn’t he take us two with him? Just take Sister Xue to Dalian alone?”

Mei Ting smiled and said: "Silly girl, this is not a trip, but you are taking all three of us with you! Letting Xiaoxue go is also convenient for taking care of me. I have a lot of things to do, and you, little girl, don't

The conference's caretaker can only let Xiaoxue follow!"

After Mei Ting explained this, Liu Xinlan became silent. Indeed, when it comes to taking care of her men, Mei Xue is indeed better than herself, but who can she blame? She has been studying at the Guangzhou Military Academy, and her days with this guy are all...

There are so many, but not like Mei Xue, who has been with him all day, Liu Xinlan thought a little sadly, her eye circles were a little red, but the Mei sisters who were busy packing their things did not notice her subtle changes in mood.

There were not many things to pack, just a change of clothes. She simply packed two suitcases. Mei Xue thought about it, ran into the kitchen, and put a few small bottles and cans in the suitcase.

Ting took a closer look and saw that they were some seasonings and the like, so she joked to her sister: "Xiaoxue has been with this guy for a long time and is very interested in him. She is well aware of his greedy habit! Be prepared!"
