Age of Conquest Reborn

Colonel Ge Zhenzhuang, Chief of the Staff Office of the Independent Division, frankly presented his judgment to the division commander Tang Qiuli about the dangers that the Korean Railway troops might face on the battlefield in western Liaoning. However, the division commander Tang Qiuli did not pay attention to his opinion.

, which made Ge Zhenzhuang a little disappointed.

Ge Zhenzhuang's expression fell into Tang Qiuli's eyes. He smiled and said: "Director Ge, at this point, you are not as good as Zhao Yuhe. If such issues are involved, he will stick to his opinion.

, he will argue with me, unless, unless I convince him!"

After listening to what the teacher said, Ge Zhenzhuang grinned and said nothing, "Can this be the same? The positions are different!"

Tang Qiuli smiled and then said: "Director Ge, your judgment just now reminds me that we cannot treat the Japanese according to common sense. The former commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, Nanjiro, was able to produce tens of thousands of human bodies.

bomb, this

Umezu Yoshijiro might be able to produce tens of thousands of improvised troops. If the Japanese from the Fengtian direction stabbed the Han Railway troops in the back at the most critical moment of the blocking battle, the situation might not be known to turn around!

"

Ge Zhenzhuang's eyes lit up. Hearing the meaning of the division commander's words, he accepted his own opinion. Just as he was about to speak, Tang Qiuli waved his hand and interrupted, "Director Ge, convey my order to Gong Zhaoyu, commander of the Shandong Garrison District.

After receiving the order, four brigades of troops were immediately mobilized. Within two days, the assembly was completed, field equipment was replenished, and they immediately went to the battlefield in western Liaoning. They were returned to the division command to directly command. The troops took the sea route and landed at the port of Anton!"

Ge Zhengang said loudly: "This is the division commander. I will immediately convey your order to Commander Gong Zhaoyu of the Shandong Garrison District!"

"Umezu Yoshijiro, I hope you will take this step and allocate all the available troops in and around Fengtian City. It will save me a lot of effort when retaking Fengtian! It is not impossible to retake Fengtian without losing any blood!" Tang Qiuli

A smile like an old fox hung on the corner of his mouth, and he muttered to himself.

Although the four brigades transferred from the Shandong Garrison Area belong to the second-line troops, each brigade has a full strength of only more than 9,000 people, but the force that Umezu Yoshijiro can put together to guard and deal with it is more than enough. If replaced

With a complete set of field equipment, the combat effectiveness can be greatly improved. If necessary, it can also be used as a reserve force for the Korean Railways. It can be assembled and re-equipped in two days. Within four days, it can be deployed on the front line west of Fengtian.

Tang Qiuli believed that in six days, Umezu Yoshijiro would never be able to assemble tens of thousands of troops. He would need to recruit, arm and organize troops. He could get ahead and catch the fish. He was very happy to see Umezu.

Meijiro once again squeezed the potential force of Fengtian and surrounding areas, and the greater the intensity, the better.

Within a few days, the once smug Commander-in-Chief of the Kwantung Army, General Umezu Yoshijiro, became so haggard that he looked so haggard. Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Matsuda Kenjiro walked into the Commander-in-Chief’s spacious office at noon when the sun was shining brightly.

, but when the sunlight shining in from the floor-to-ceiling glass windows fell on the Commander-in-Chief, it reflected the dead silence and hesitation emanating from his heart.

Such a huge contrast made Chief of Staff Matsuda feel very uncomfortable. "Commander-in-chief, you summoned me, what's the matter?" Seeing that General Umezu's eyes were dull and his expression was dull. He seemed not to be aware of his arrival, so he had no choice but to

asked.

General Umezu rolled his eyes a few times before exuding a little vitality, and said in a hoarse voice: "Matsuda-kun, you already know that the Kwantung Army troops from the west of Liaoning were attacked from the direction of the Liaodong Peninsula from Panshan to Beining.

, the strong blockade of the independent division troops, the attack lasted for several hours, and nearly 50,000 imperial soldiers were killed or injured, but failed to achieve success and failed to break through the blocking position of the independent division troops!"

"Matsuda-kun, do you know what this means? It means that the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Kwantung Army in the western Liaoning area will fall into a dangerous situation of being surrounded from two sides. I have long said that the independent division troops in the direction of the Liaodong Peninsula will be

Become a knife that stabs the Kwantung Army in the back, a knife that can be fatal!" At this point, he stood up nervously, waving his hands in the air, and his hoarse voice was so sharp that it almost tore the air.

"I know, Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, that the Kwantung Army in the western Liaoning region is facing catastrophe!" This is no longer a secret. Almost the entire Fengtian City knows it, Chief of Staff Matsuda replied in a calm tone.

Chief of Staff Matsuda's calmness surprised General Umezu, "Matsuda-kun, as Chief of Staff, can you come up with any good countermeasures at this critical moment?" His tone became gloomy, Matsuda said.

His calmness, or indifference, made General Umezu very uncomfortable. He even thought morbidly, "This guy Matsuda has made it clear that he is seeing my joke!"

"I'm very sorry, Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, that the staff department has no good ideas and has disappointed you!" Chief of Staff Matsuda replied calmly, and then changed the subject, "However, the staff department suggested that since nothing can be done, Liaoxi

The battlefield has become a dead end, so we might as well give up and concentrate on considering the retreat of our Kwantung Army troops in Western Manchuria!"

"Honey?" General Umezu Yoshijiro exclaimed, as if he was seeing a monster. He looked at the chief of staff who was usually cautious and respectful to him. Then, he became furious and roared loudly: "Baga! This is nonsense, give up.

The Japanese Emperor in Western Liaoning

The country's hundreds of thousands of elite troops ignored them and allowed them to be surrounded by that devil's army. In the end, they were all broken into pieces! Thank you for your ability to speak out, Matsuda, do you know the danger of what you said? Just this sentence

If you say so, I can send you to a military court!"

The muscles on Chief of Staff Matsuda's cheek twitched, but there was a stubborn light in his eyes, "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, when the staff made this suggestion, they have already considered the consequences and are willing to bear all responsibilities for it!"

"As far as the current war situation in Manchuria is concerned, the only way to rescue the Kwantung Army in western Liaoning is to open the passage to Fengtian and defeat the blocking independent division. However, Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, do we have the troops? No,

There is not even a complete Kwantung Army brigade in the entire Fengtian and the surrounding areas of Fengtian. I would also like to remind the commander-in-chief that even if we temporarily form a certain number of troops, can we achieve the results we want?"

"Which China devil will ignore this? In the northern part of the Liaodong Peninsula, your decision to join the Third Army and the First and Second Detachments of the Kwantung Army is a painful lesson. Hundreds of thousands of Imperial soldiers and Manchukuo soldiers, the entire army

The destruction of Fengtian has resulted in Fengtian now having almost no soldiers to defend it. It is almost like an empty city. The so-called strong man has cut off his wrist. I hope the commander-in-chief will make a decision early. Otherwise, not only Fengtian will be in danger, but the future fate of the Kwantung Army in Western Manchuria will also be difficult.

material!"

Having said so much in one breath, and in a tone of accusation and lesson, Chief of Staff Matsuda's expression was in a state of excitement, and he spoke loudly. Since General Nanjiro left office, the sullenness that had accumulated in his heart could be solved by his subordinates.

With his identity, there are not many people who have taught General Umezu a lesson in person. I guess he is the first one?

Facing the eloquent Chief of Staff Matsuda, General Umezu Yoshijiro took half a step back in shock, as if he had just met this person. What Matsuda said was true, but it was not a mistake in his command, but the constant unexpected changes on the battlefield, and the cunning and insidious opponent.

, the plots are ever-changing, and the battle situation is beyond his control. The most important thing is that the Kwantung Army has insufficient troops, so what can he do? General Umezu feels a little angry.

General Umezu really wanted to give this guy who dared to challenge his authority and question his commanding ability a few loud slaps in the face, and then deprive him of all his positions and imprison him. However, Manchuria has become a critical situation. Although there is no change in Fengtian,

An atmosphere of uneasiness and fear has enveloped the entire city, and even the headquarters itself is filled with an uneasy atmosphere. The memorial to His Majesty the Emperor has yet to be heard from nothing.

If he were to deal with this guy Matsuda at this moment, it would cause an unexpected panic. His foundation in the Kwantung Army was still shallow, and he still needed Matsuda to assist with many things. Thinking of this, General Umezu suppressed the anger in his heart and said as calmly as possible:

"Matsuda-kun, let's not discuss the past matters. It will not help. What we need to consider now is how to defeat the blocking of the independent division troops in the Liaoxi direction and open the passage to retreat to Fengtian."

"The second is to concentrate on the direction of Western Manchuria and how the imperial troops can successfully withdraw to Xinjing. In this regard, I have already issued an order. The Kwantung Army troops in the Western Manchuria area have begun to retreat. What needs to be solved now is the western Liaoning

It’s a matter of direction!”

When Chief of Staff Matsuda said what he just said, he did not expect that he would get any good results. He had already prepared for the worst. However, he knew that General Umezu could not do anything to him. The most he could do was to dismiss him and investigate. However,

He didn't

Thinking that the Commander-in-Chief mentioned the matter just now and did not pursue it further, and his attitude was quite friendly, then I just pushed the envelope. After all, he was the number one boss of the Kwantung Army, so in a head-on confrontation

, the one who suffers is still himself.

"Yes! Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, Matsuda is willing to obey any order you give! Please also forgive the presumptuous remarks made by the staff just now and my personal opinion!" Chief of Staff Matsuda said in a sincere tone after bowing slightly.

"Yo Xi!" General Umezu seemed to be very satisfied with Chief of Staff Matsuda's attitude, with a smile on his face. As for whether he didn't grit his teeth in his heart, it is unclear, "Matsuda-kun, the only one who can solve the crisis of the imperial army in the western Liaoning area."

I already have a plan, but I still need you, Matsuda-kun, to do your best!" General Umezu said with a fierce light like a gambler's eyes.

"This is a matter within the department, and I am willing to serve His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief!" Chief of Staff Matsuda also expressed his attitude.
