    Kanji Nishihara knew that, let alone the tens of thousands of Manchurians who died in Hylar, even if more people died, the empire would basically not do anything to him. But if thousands of imperial citizens were lost, it would be difficult for him to reach a stage where he could rely solely on his own efforts step by step.  For Kanji Nishihara, who is in today's position and has no one to take care of him, and no one who is very capable to take care of him in the background, it is definitely a disaster.

    Once this situation really happens, the base camp will not spare him even if it is to appease public opinion. At this point, he is somewhat worried about gain and loss. After all, he was killed by an enemy plane during the retreat and the army consciously  Abandonment is two different concepts for the base camp, and the results of treatment will not be the same.

    The Japanese not only have a strict hierarchy in the military, but they also have a strict hierarchy in daily life. As a child of a common people's family with no roots and no faction, if you want to look like a person, you can completely get rid of it.  Losing oneself, or even the whole family, to poverty, except for being able to go to university to work in politics or teaching.

    The only way for them to get ahead is to study in the sergeant school and then to the Army University and become a general. Otherwise, it would be difficult for ordinary children from ordinary people's families to get ahead, especially those children from poor farmers.  Let¡¯s talk.

    In order to reach a high position in the army, in addition to being admitted to the Army University, one must also rely on so-called military exploits. Lieutenant General Nishihara Kanji, who also came from a civilian family, and those who had the same background, dreamed of getting ahead.  Like his colleagues, they are desperate to climb up.

    These people have never known what it means to think about the lives of their soldiers. As for the lives of civilians, in their eyes, they are chess pieces that can be discarded at any time when necessary. Everyone, including the so-called emperor who they keep loyal to, is here.  Inside, it is just a ladder for them to climb up. As long as they can achieve their goals, they will not hesitate even if they are riddled with bones.

    But not all people in the base camp are from the same background as them. Once there are too many casualties among foreigners in the country, he himself does not care. However, in order to appease public opinion, the base camp often needs to be dealt with. Those civilians are not the army, no matter how big the fight is,  As long as you want to cover up your defeat, you can still cover it up.

    Thousands of overseas Chinese have disappeared inexplicably. The military must give the public an explanation to appease public opinion. Although the most serious thing is to be transferred to the reserve force, this result is the most unacceptable to anyone who dreams of becoming a general or even an army officer.  Lieutenant General Nishihara Kanji, who is in the position of third officer, can accept it.

    Just when Kanji Nishihara was hesitating, Major General Chida Sadao, the commander of the Eighth Border Guards of the Kwantung Army who was retreating with the 23rd Division over there, couldn't wait any longer and was left at the end with the 23rd Division.  The 71st Regiment of the division was jointly responsible for the cover mission, and the Eighth Border Guard Corps, which became the best target of the Anti-Japanese Alliance Air Force, suffered casualties and one third of them missing in two days. If this continues, the Eighth Border Guard Corps arrived.  How many people are left in Aershan?

    Kanji Nishihara's 23rd Division has three reinforced regiments, as well as artillery, search, engineering, baggage, and a large number of attached tanks, anti-aircraft artillery and other troops.  The garrison can't compare with the 23rd Division. There are just a few infantry teams. If they are still crawling so slowly towards Aershan, they may not be able to persist at their destination.

    If the Eighth Border Guard was completely consumed during the retreat without fighting, even if he could go back alive, the Kwantung Army and the base camp would not be able to spare him, not to mention Chida, who had already reached the rank of major general and was still looking forward to surviving to advance to the next level.  Zhenxiong, naturally he doesn¡¯t want to die.

    Looking at Lieutenant General Nishihara Kanji, who was still a little hesitant, Major General Chida Sadao didn't care about so many things, and he didn't have too many taboos like Colonel Kawagore Hito. The major general said directly: "Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, what's going on?"  I can no longer hesitate, and I hope you will make a quick decision.¡±

    "If we continue walking so slowly, your 23rd Division may be able to hold on to the Aershan front line, but the Eighth Border Guard Corps cannot hold on to the Aershan front line no matter what. Although the Eighth Border Guard Corps is  The brigade is organized, but the strength and equipment cannot be compared with the regular field brigade. If this continues, the Eighth Border Guard Team will be exhausted. "

    "Also, the current way of marching with the entire division gathering on the highway and on both sides of the highway must be changed. With so many troops gathering on the highway and on both sides of the highway, aren't they serving as targets for aircraft? This is already far away from Aershan.  It¡¯s very close, so we don¡¯t have to worry about the pursuit of the Anti-Union troops.¡±

    After all, it is the rank of Major General. As soon as Major General Chida Sadao's words came out, it was absolutely different from the pressure brought by Colonel Kawagore Yuto to Nishihara Kanji. Now that Chida Sadao spoke, he forced Nishihara Kanji who was still silent even if he didn't think about it.  Take a stand, but you have to take a stand.For a long time, after seeing that the Anti-Japanese Alliance had retreated after completing this wave of bombings, and that there were no more Anti-Union aircraft in the sky, Kanji Nishihara finally made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said: "Fighting is also light, not fighting is also light, anyway.  If you continue to fight like this, it will be light. Rather than being exposed to this bare road and being consumed little by little, it is better to fight hard. "

    Seeing Nishihara Kanji finally nodded, Chida Sadao and Kawagore Oto looked at each other, and both saw the relaxed look in each other's eyes. For the two of them, no matter what, when they arrived at Arshan, which has semi-permanent fortifications,  It's much better than being passively bombed on this highway without any ability to fight back.

    Moreover, even after the Anti-Japanese Alliance pursued them, with permanent fortifications to rely on, they lost almost all heavy weapons such as mortars and above, artillery, and even most of the infantry artillery. The most important thing was that there was not much food.  With supplies already running low, it would be much better to fight them in the field.

    Kanji Nishihara, who was furious, seemed to be straightforward, and immediately began to adjust the deployment. It was changed from the original search regiment to take the lead, followed by the 64th Regiment, and in the middle was the covering division directly under the 72nd Regiment.  Ministries, as well as the main baggage force, artillery regiments and expatriates.

    As for the Eighth Border Guard Corps and the 71st Regiment, which only had one infantry brigade left, as well as two baggage squadrons and engineering regiments and other non-combat units, he unkindly arranged them at the end of the entire march.  On the other side, the marching sequence is responsible for covering the retreat of the entire army.

    Divide the division's three infantry regiments, the baggage, engineering, and search regiments, plus the artillery regiment and the Eighth Border Guard Corps, which have become unarmed infantry, into three groups: the infantry regiment, the Eighth Border Guard Corps, and the artillery regiment.  The regiment all broke away from the road and marched along the shallow hills and hills on both sides to the southwestern direction of the Aershan.

    The baggage, engineering and search regiments cover the remaining expatriates and continue to walk on the road. In the newly adjusted march sequence, as the commander-in-chief of this retreat, the division headquarters, which is the brain, must never be separated from the combat troops and compete with those  Non-combat troops are together.

    Therefore, at the insistence of Lieutenant General Kanji Nishihara, the 23rd Division Headquarters gave up the highway, which had better conditions but was also a key target of the Anti-Alliance Air Force, and marched together with the 72nd Regiment on the right.  Despite the regiment commander's care, the 71st Regiment, which had only one infantry brigade left, was still entrusted with the important task of rearrangement and rearrangement for the entire army in the newly adjusted sequence.

    This time the march sequence was re-adjusted. Under the strong protest of Major General Chida Sadao, Nishihara Kanji, who did not want to conflict with him on this issue, did not do too much and finally cut off the entire army from the Eighth Border Guard.  The position was changed to the right wing to cover the entire army's march.

    It¡¯s no wonder that Major General Chida Sadao was dissatisfied. The two infantry brigades of the 71st Regiment were shattered on the Yakeshi line together with the commander. The remaining infantry brigades were naturally unable to undertake the task of covering the division headquarters, and their strength was the same.  If it is not enough to clear the way for the whole division, then we can only stay at the end to cover the whole army.

    As for the Eighth Border Guard Corps, which had a considerable number of troops transferred away by the Kwantung Army last year but has not yet been able to replenish it, Kanji Nishihara used the excuse of replenishing the 71st Regiment to temporarily merge it with the 71st Regiment into one.  The infantry regiment cuts off the rear of the entire army together.

    This makes all the officers and soldiers of the Eighth Border Guard, from Major General Chida Sadao to ordinary soldiers, quite dissatisfied. In terms of heavy weapons, the Eighth Border Guard currently only has one field artillery squadron and one rapid-fire artillery squadron. In terms of troop strength,  , the Eighth Border Guard Corps, which once numbered seven thousand, now has no more than a regiment. It is quite unethical to have the Eighth Border Guard Corps cut off the rear of the 23rd Division.

    The 71st Regiment is your own organic unit of the 23rd Division. Whether or not this dilapidated regiment is used as cover is your own business. The only remaining brigade of the 71st Regiment is  It was all blown up, and it had nothing to do with the Eighth Border Guard.

    However, Nishihara Kanji left the Eighth Border Guard at the back to take on the task of covering the entire army, which made Chida Sadao very dissatisfied. Under the situation that the Anti-Japanese Alliance might pursue them at any time, this person who was at the back was  The troops covering the general retreat of the entire army mean that they may be sacrificed for the sake of the overall situation at any time.

    Once this happens, it will be equivalent to exchanging the Eighth Border Guard Corps and the 71st Regiment, which currently has only one infantry brigade, for the survival of the main force of the 23rd Division, which means that it is very likely that the Eighth Border Guard Corps will  The entire army would be destroyed, so this arrangement made Chida Sadao and his men very dissatisfied.

    But after all, the Japanese army was much more obedient than the Chinese army at that time. Despite some reluctance, the Eighth Border Guard was still under the command of the 23rd Division, although it was only under the command of the 23rd Division and was not included in the 23rd Division.  It is a team building system, but after all, it is also a reality??I report directly to my superior.

    Especially when the supplies were in the hands of the 23rd Division, the Eighth Border Guard Corps dared not speak out in anger. However, this time when the marching sequence was adjusted, Chida Sadao firmly disagreed with leaving the Eighth Border Guard Corps behind.  At the end, they threatened to act alone if Nishihara Kanji did not change his behavior of discriminating against the Border Guards.

    Although Major General Chida Sadao's actions made Nishihara Kanji very angry, under the persuasion of Colonel Kawagore Yuto, he finally agreed to Chida Sadao's request. After adjusting the marching sequence, Lieutenant General Nishihara Kanji  In the name of the commander of the Thirteenth Division, he issued a death order to each regiment captain, ordering each regiment to ignore the anti-union aircraft in the sky, and the entire army retreated to Aershan as quickly as possible, and the faster the better.
