Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 302: Kidnapping

Tashiro immediately ordered an emergency military meeting to be held. He could not let Tang Qiuli's conspiracy succeed, otherwise, it would be the day that Tashiro Anichiro left the military.

As a result of the decision of the meeting, all the forces of the garrison in North China were used to rescue the headquarters of General Yuan Shanjin, and the superior forces were concentrated to open a gap in the encirclement of Tang Qiuli and look for opportunities to annihilate the Chinese troops surrounding General Yuan Shan.

However, Tashiro did not ask the aviation unit to participate this time. He spent a lot of time to suppress the last loss. The aircraft of the Empire of Japan are so precious!

While Tashiro held an emergency military meeting, orders were issued one after another from Tang Qiuli's headquarters at the headquarters of the 258th Regiment.

Tang Qiuli ordered that the troops scattered in every corner of the Taihang Mountains, except for the necessary garrison troops and local work teams, should take a combat posture and immediately assemble on the spot, waiting for orders. A transportation force composed of 500 vehicles would be ready at any time.

Transport troops and arrive in the direction of Wanping.

Around the Wanping area southwest of Beiping City, all the Japanese troops in North China were in action. The Japanese troops stationed in key points scattered in various places urgently assembled, assembled a regiment, and then drove a regiment in the direction of Wanping.

When all the Japanese troops in North China were assembled, Anichiro Tashiro painfully discovered that he had taken out a regiment, and Tang Qiuli had taken out two reinforcement regiments to reinforce the direction of Wanping.

Tashiro's troops have been used up, and the troops of the ** division are still moving towards Wanping. This is not considered a temporary inactivity, but the troops of three divisions of Tang Qiuli's 29th Army are on standby at any time.

.

Tashiro simply couldn't understand that so many troops from Tang Qiuli were not just a mob. They were all field troops with full personnel and well-armed weapons, and they were advancing at an astonishing speed.

Tashiro had used up more than 40,000 troops in his hand, and Tang Qiuli had assembled more than 70,000 troops in the Wanping area. With an overwhelming advantage, he built an insurmountable line of defense in front of Tashiro's reinforcements of Yuan Shanjin.

Tang Qiuli claimed to the outside world that the North China garrison would expand the scale of the exercise according to the needs of the situation, and at the same time extend the time of the military exercise indefinitely. In order to meet the needs of actual combat, the troops used live ammunition for shooting in this exercise.

In order to avoid accidentally injuring innocent people and foreign friends, the exercise headquarters has publicly announced information about the exercise in major newspapers in North China, and set up obvious warning signs in the exercise area. If anyone breaks into the exercise area without authorization, the unit will not be responsible for any casualties caused.

Responsible.

His tone was exactly the same as when he surrounded Yuanshan and advanced into the army. Everyone understood Tang Qiuli's intention, and the Japanese knew it very well.

This means that the surrounded Yuanshan Jin troops were detained indefinitely by Tang Qiuli, and they were not responsible for all the daily necessities of the surrounded Japanese troops. As for what the Japanese friends eat and drink, follow me Tang Qiuli

Not a dime matters.

You can also airdrop supplies. However, since it is a live-fire exercise, my air defense troops will not throw a few big firecrackers into the sky for fun, right? If the unlucky plane happens to be shot down, don't complain.

The ** team didn’t remind you.

Tang Qiuli has plenty of time and strength. Playing with Tashiro Anichiro can disrupt the overall deployment of the Japanese garrison in North China and attract the attention of the Japanese base camp to North China. This is also one of the main purposes of his operation.

.

As for the Kwantung Army in the Northeast going south for reinforcements, there is no way for the Kwantung Army to reach the vicinity of Peking within ten and a half months. If they come with few troops, I will surround you anyway. If they come with more troops, I will have an excuse to eat up your troops in North China first.

Lose.

For this reason, he would not hesitate to fight fiercely. He would not hesitate to entangle the Japanese army in North China so that the hungry wolf would not have time to look south. Even if all the Japanese troops were exhausted, he would not hesitate. Tang Qiuli had already prepared for the worst.

The strength of the three divisions of the 29th Army on hand is to prepare for the Kwantung Army's reinforcements to enter the Pass. What's more, this involves the coordination of the two major systems of the Japanese army, Japan's comprehensive strategy towards China, and the possibility of the Kwantung Army moving south to enter the Pass.

Not big.

The final result was that the top leaders of both parties came forward to negotiate. This was why Tang Qiuli did not order the entire Yuan Shanjin troops to be annihilated. He did not want to kill the chess yet. In any case, the cost would be too high after all.

On the third day after the siege, Harayama Susumu's troops were completely in need of supplies. Tashiro Anichiro had no choice but to order the aviation unit to dispatch, but not to bomb, but to airdrop supplies and materials to Harayama Susumu's troops.

The Japanese aircraft arrived over the target and were about to start airdropping. Suddenly, countless anti-aircraft machine gun bullets and anti-aircraft artillery shells flew up from the ground, exploding into black smoke clouds in the air.

The Japanese pilots who had learned their lesson hurriedly climbed to the altitude, threw down the supplies and returned quickly. This airspace was too scary. They were transport planes. They were no more agile than a clumsy chicken in the sky. They were still living.

target?

The airdropped supplies, driven by high-altitude air currents, floated away from the Japanese army's position and landed on the Japanese division's position. The angry Japanese soldiers cursed their compatriots, and the happy soldiers had a feast.

Tashiro didn't have the guts to attack now. He only had so much property in his hands. The combat power and firepower of the Japanese Army made the elite Kwantung Army suffer a lot when they were in Manchuria, not to mention that the force far exceeded his own.

A senior staff officer proposed a combat plan. The imperial army's troops could surround the troops of the China Army Division from the periphery, and General Yuanshan's troops could cooperate inside to create a central flower, defeating the China army in one fell swoop, and annihilating a large number of its effective forces.

Tashiro glanced at the senior staff officer coldly, and almost took out his command knife and chopped off the pig's head. Tashiro even suspected that this was how he became a senior staff officer? He couldn't have gone through the back door and made a career in the garrison in North China, right?

Let me use more than 40,000 people to surround more than 70,000 people. Not taking into account the difference in firepower, the opponent has two brigades of artillery and three brigades of cavalry, and they are not afraid of dying! You are talking nonsense, and there are still twenty

Troops from three divisions of the Ninth Army stared at the North China Imperial Army from behind.

For the first time, Tashiro felt that the troops in his hands were insufficient. After this incident, Japan was prompted to increase its troops to North China. In the end, the total strength of the Japanese army in North China reached more than 300,000. Tang Qiuli entangled the Japanese army in

The idea of ​​North China has been initially realized.

It was not that Tashiro had not thought about it, requesting the base camp to mobilize the Kwantung Army to go south for reinforcements, but it was very difficult. First, it was a matter of time. Susumu Harayama could not afford to wait, and second, it involved the overall strategic structure of the empire.

Once the base camp is forced to change its original overall plan because of its orientation to North China, and the results are not satisfactory, its status in the military world and even its future will be cast into a thick shadow.

Tashiro thought for a long time, but still couldn't find a very safe way. He tried sending a liaison officer to communicate with Tang Qiuli. However, not only did he get frustrated, he didn't even see the shadow of this Chinese devil, and he even brought it back to Tashiro.

Wan Yilang made some impulsive remarks about strangling Tang Qiuli to death.

Before the start of the headquarters exercise, there were no troops stationed here. As for what you said, there are a large number of your troops in the central area of ​​our military exercise. We are verifying it. At present, there is no sign that your troops exist. Now

, our department is actively verifying it and will notify you immediately as soon as there is any news.

This means that the thousands of soldiers who entered Yuanshan, and Major General Yuanshan himself, have become Tang Qiuli's hostages. In the words of Manchu beards, they are thousands of meat votes! When to break up the vote depends on Tang Qiuli's mood.

how.

On the fifth day of the siege of Yuan Shanjin, supplies and materials were completely exhausted, and the war horses had to be killed to maintain the most basic rations. The Japanese army was in a desperate situation without food and water, but how many war horses were there?

Susumu Harayama's urgent telegram flew to Tashiro's headquarters like snow flakes. In the end, Susumu Harayama almost threatened Tashiro Anichiro. He was going to organize his troops to carry out a suicide charge. Lord Tashiro sat back and watched thousands of Imperial Japanese soldiers collectively being crushed. What would happen?

Report to the base camp.

The implication is that Tashiro was almost driven crazy because he refused to save him. Now he cannot afford to fight or retreat, which makes no sense.

Things that almost brought Tashiro to the point of collapse were still happening.

People staying at key points in various places reported that since yesterday, they have been attacked by unidentified armed men. Most of the strongholds have been captured and a small number of defenders have been killed. Judging from their dress and behavior, they are very much like the actions of China bandits.

According to the reports of the escaped China agents, these militants all speak Manchurian or Shandong accents. Based on the above situation, it can be judged that they are the work of the Manchurian Resistance League and Shandong bandits. They took advantage of the opportunity when our main force went to reinforce General Yuanshan.

enter.

The behavior of the anti-Japanese rebels and bandits was so bad and despicable that they not only looted all the supplies at various key points, but also set fire to the barracks where the imperial army was stationed and demolished the defense facilities.

Tashiro almost jumped up. They are all a bunch of fucking pig brains and full of shit. The Anti-Japanese Alliance is now oppressed by the Kwantung Army. They have no time to take care of themselves. Do they still have the desire to go to North China to demolish houses? As for the bandits in Shandong, they are talking nonsense. They ran away

Traveling thousands of miles just to grab a few generations of flour and a few boxes of bullets?

Besides, how did they know that the imperial army's guard strength was empty? It was clearly Tang Qiuli's fault. He drew our attention to the direction of Wanping. He took the opportunity to send troops to wreak havoc on the stronghold that the imperial army had worked so hard to build. Then

But Tashiro cannot afford to throw away the hard work of the North China garrison for more than ten years.

Tashiro was going crazy because he couldn't afford to lose the thousands of men and horses who had entered the mountain.

Finally, it was the Japanese Consul General in Peiping who gave Tashiro an idea to put pressure on the Nanjing National Government through diplomatic channels, and Nanjing ordered Tang Qiuli to retreat. In this way, the siege of General Harayama could be easily resolved.

When Tashiro heard this, he kept calling for clever ideas. He knew very well the mentality of the senior officials of the Nanjing National Government. In front of the Japanese, the sky was full of calcium deficiency.

Tashiro Anichiro personally wrote a strongly worded diplomatic note to the Nanjing government, which was sent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the National Government in Nanjing through the Japanese Consulate General in Peiping.

Later, he sent a telegram to Yuanshan, telling Yuanshan who was jumping anxiously that the matter would be resolved soon and please wait patiently.
