    Chapter 758: Strong soldiers and powerful horses

    Tang Qiuli dealt two heavy blows to the Japanese army in Northeast China and North China, which made Japan furious. After dealing with a few scapegoats and venting his anger, Emperor Hirohito issued a recruitment order with murderous intent, preparing to expand the Japanese army to  With a scale of about two million people, this is a nationwide mobilization order.  (_-< Registered members of Piaotian Literature recommend this work >-)

    At the same time, he also issued a secret order to the navy. In view of the unsatisfactory development trend of the empire in northern China, the navy must be prepared to go south to Southeast Asia. The current international situation is very conducive to the expansion of the empire's military strength to Britain and the United States.  China's traditional sphere of influence will not hesitate to fight Britain and the United States when necessary.

    The war sentiment in Japan was once again incited by an edict from Emperor Hirohito. Recruitment stations were crowded with enthusiastic Japanese youths joining the army. War resources were mobilized to the maximum extent, and the Japanese war machine was once again in full swing.  The horsepower started rumbling. It was not that Emperor Hirohito did not want to take back North China immediately, but the skeleton of the North China Expeditionary Army was broken up by Tang Qiuli. The Kwantung Army was beaten to a half-breath. He could only use a few months to recover.  Yuan Qi, and then have a decisive battle with Tang Qiuli.

    The new commander of the Kwantung Army, General Kenkichi Ueda, with complicated emotions, took a plane from his homeland to Xinjing, where the Kwantung Army headquarters is located. Although His Majesty the Emperor gave him more than two months to prepare, he faced two major problems.  It was the Kwantung Army that mobilized all its troops from all over the country, creating a void in the rear. As a result, the anti-alliance armed forces sprouted everywhere, attacking the Kwantung Army's scattered strongholds everywhere and capturing Manchukuo's government officials, which gradually became a prairie fire.

    The second is the Battle of Shanhaiguan, which basically wiped out the backbone of the Kwantung Army. The combat effectiveness of the newly added troops is a problem. The Red Beards can be used to suppress the Anti-Japanese Alliance, but they can be used to fight against the Chinese demon Tang Qiuli's ** divisions.  In the confrontation, Ueda Kenkichi was really unsure. Although His Majesty the Emperor promised to increase the strength of the Kwantung Army to about 1.2 million, the quantity was not proportional to the quality.

    As soon as Ueda Kenkichi arrived in Xinjing, he saw a report sent by the staff about the increasingly rampant anti-union activities in various parts of Manchuria. As of July 10, statistics showed that there had been more than a thousand attacks on the Kwantung Army's garrison units in various places.  , more than 17,000 imperial soldiers died in the battle, Manchukuo's local political power was completely destroyed, and a large number of Manchurians loyal to the empire were shot. The chaotic situation in Manchuria has seriously affected the fundamental interests of the empire.

    According to intelligence, the equipment and combat effectiveness of the anti-alliance forces have been greatly enhanced, becoming a serious problem for the empire in Manchuria. Kenkichi Ueda¡¯s head swelled a few times. After several days of military meetings, he finally figured it out. At present,  , the empire's biggest enemy is the anti-alliance forces operating in the hinterland of Manchuria. As for Chen Bing's Tang Qiuli troops in Jinzhou and Linghai, there are no signs of large-scale military attacks for the time being.

    To this end, Ueda Kenkichi sent a secret memorial to Emperor Hirohito, "Your Majesty the Emperor, Ueda Kenkichi pays homage to you. As a result of many days of secret meetings between the minister and his subordinates, the key issue in Manchuria at present is to completely resolve the Anti-Japanese War.  The existence of armed forces, the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli is a foreign invasion, and the Red Beard of the Resistance Alliance is an internal worry. If the internal worries are not eliminated, how can we resist foreign aggression? Therefore, all the energy of the Kwantung Army at present should be used to wipe out the resistance armed forces and restore Manchuria.  Order, the attack on the North China ** Division entrenched in Jinzhou was originally scheduled for early October this year, but it will definitely be delayed. Please grant your Majesty's permission."

    This actually postponed the battle to regain western Liaoning indefinitely. Emperor Hirohito sighed after seeing Ueda Kenkichi's memorial. He believed that Ueda was telling the truth. Even if the Kwantung Army was replenished to its original strength and the level of training of its soldiers,  It was not enough to fight a large-scale offensive war with Tang Qiuli's troops, calm the situation in Manchuria, and avoid holding back Ueda Kenkichi.

    He gave an imperial approval to Ueda Kenkichi's memorial: "This proposal is approved, and I hope that I will be considerate of my kindness and live up to my high expectations." After receiving the approval of His Majesty the Emperor, Ueda Kenkichi immediately mobilized troops and went to various parts of Northeast China to carry out the anti-Union armed forces.  In the clearing mission, the Kwantung Army troops pressed into the border, and the situation of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance immediately became difficult. The battle was extremely cruel, and the severe winter for the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance arrived early.

    After receiving information from the Northeast Intelligence Station, the special operations detachments that went deep into the entire Northeast, after completing their scheduled tasks, and in accordance with the instructions of the division commander Tang Qiuli, had evacuated the Northeast in batches and returned to North China before the Kwantung Army launched a large-scale suppression campaign.  In the area, only Tang Qiuquan, the detachment leader, led the Chutian detachment and another detachment, a total of more than 560 people. Instead of evacuating, they rushed towards the Suifenhe and Dongning areas on the Sino-Soviet border in East Manchuria.

    Along the way, try to hide your whereabouts to avoid conflicts with the Kwantung Army and the Manchurian Army. Your whereabouts are secretive. Tang Qiuquan is performing a special secret mission. Among the entire special operations force heading east, he is the only one who knows about this top-secret mission.  The specific content is the order given by Tang Qiuli in code words: "Spring has arrived.Roses are blooming¡±

    The relative calm on the front line in Jinzhou, western Liaoning, gave Tang Qiuli more time to calmly adjust his deployment, rectify the rear, and lay a manpower and material foundation for the next large-scale battle. The Kwantung Army frequently made heavy blows to the coalition forces. It was he who  It was something that was expected and hoped to happen, and it could also be said that it was planned by him.

    On July 14, Tang Qiuli issued an order to mobilize Liu Tiehan's East Point troops to leave Tianjin and rush to the Jinzhou defense line to take over Feng Jiwu's Niangziguan Corps. All defenses of the corps directly under the ** Division on the Jinzhou front line, and Sun Zhenbang's Corps, continued  By staying in Jinzhou, there will be 280,000 troops in two regiments of the ** Division on the front line of Jinzhou, which can maintain relative pressure on the Kwantung Army and resist a large-scale attack by the Kwantung Army.

    As for Liu Tiehan's East Point Army, most of the soldiers were former soldiers of the Northeast Army. They were transferred to Jinzhou and looked at their hometown in the distance. They were still trampled under the iron hoofs of the little devils. The fellow villagers were still suffering the humiliation of being slaves who had subjugated their country. They had a home to return to.  No, my eyes were filled with tears, and I wished I could fight back home immediately. Once the war broke out, there was no need to mobilize before the war. All the soldiers of the East Point Army would not kill the Japanese with red eyes. This burst of murderous intent could be invincible. This was Tang Qiu.  Li's deep intention of mobilizing the East Point troops to the Jinzhou front line.

    The defense of the Pingjin area was handed over to the Yuan Jinghao Corps. In view of the small number of troops in the Corps, the three divisions of the Central Army that were transferred to the Tianjin front line were placed under the command of Yuan Jinghao to jointly assume the defense of Pingjin. Such an arrangement would make it easier to  Chairman Chiang in Chongqing feels at ease, believing that his plan to mix sand is going smoothly. At the same time, Tianjin's garrison strength can also reach about 150,000, if necessary.  It can be used as a mobile force to support Liu Tiehan's troops.

    Among the commanders of the second-line corps of the ** Division, Tang Qiuli recognized Yuan Jinghao's abilities very much. His performance while stationed in Henan was enough to impress the division commander. Therefore, Tang Qiuli's secret order to Yuan Jinghao was  Yuan Jinghao naturally understood that the three divisions of the Central Army were gradually tolerated and digested, and finally, they were completely integrated into the sequence of the ** division.

    Tang Qiusheng's Sulu Mobile Corps, the corps directly under the ** Division Headquarters, Feng Jiwu's Niangziguan Garrison Corps, and Chang Feng's Taihang Mountain Field Corps gathered in the Pingjin area to rest and recuperate. No one knew that the division commander concentrated so many troops in this area.  What is the purpose of Pingjin area?

    What surprised all the senior generals of the ** division was that Tang Qiuli sent a large number of engineering troops to the Erenhot area at the junction of Eastern Mongolia and Outer Mongolia to build two field airports and required them to be completed by the end of August.  In two months, one can imagine the difficulty of this project. Fortunately, the Transportation Command of the ** Division immediately opened a transportation line from Dingbian to Erenhot. A steady stream of materials will soon be able to ensure the construction.  Normally, in those days, propeller aircraft were used, and the requirements for airport runways and infrastructure were not too strict.

    Using more than 100 Japanese "Zero" fighter jets seized at Jinzhou Songshan Airport, the first batch of more than 260 pilot students who graduated from the Dingbian Branch of the Central Aviation School of the National Government finally had the ability to fly into the blue sky.  They were lucky to have the opportunity. From the beginning, they were able to conduct combat flights under the leadership of veteran pilots who had experienced many air battles. Tang Qiuli's two nephews, Tang Yunfei and Tang Yunpeng, were also one of these flight students. At this time  , they are just young men over the age of eighteen.

    Taking advantage of the opportunity for the ** Division to regain its reputation across the country after regaining North China, Tang Qiuli set up recruitment offices across the country. Groups of passionate young people entered the ** Division's troops, and all the recruits recruited in North China were sent to Huangyadong.  The base received military training for half a year. All the recruits recruited in the Jiangnan area were sent to Dingbian for half-year military training. Among them, young people with higher education levels voluntarily applied for the Dingbian Military Academy and were admitted on a selective basis. Suddenly, Dingbian  The size of the Border Military Academy has more than doubled, making Dean Jiang Baili extremely busy.

    At the same time, Tang Qiuli also sent a telegram to Liu Hanzhang to prepare for the establishment of a large number of colleges and universities such as the Administrative Cadre Management College, the Economic Cadre Management College, and the Architecture College in Dingbian to reserve talents for the future. He issued an order to the Dingbian Garrison District Headquarters to  In early October this year, the ** Division Reserve Corps with no less than twenty brigades was formed in Dingbian. This is a force of more than 240,000 people. Moreover, this batch of reserve troops in Dingbian is different from the new recruits recruited from various places.  They usually train strictly and can go directly to the battlefield. What they lack is nothing more than actual combat experience.

    The ** division recruited troops from all over the country, and was secretly resisted by powerful local factions. In the eyes of these people, Tang Qiuli was poaching their corners and causing trouble for himself. He regarded the area he occupied as his own.  How can local powerful factions in private territory be willing to do so? They don't want their troops to flow out.

    What is the overall situation of the War of Resistance? It is the fundamental overall situation that oneself will not be annexed. Tang Qiuli cannot be defeated head-on, so he complained to the National Supervisory Yuan one after another. For a while, complaint letters flew to Chongqing in the southwest like a snowflake.
