Naturally, it is impossible for Qin Wei to have the ability to predict things like a god, because that kind of thing only comes from folk tales and romances, and even so, there have been only three or five people in China for thousands of years who have been crowned with such magical powers. Naturally, it is impossible for him to be Qin. He just got the news from Gu Changjun. In fact, when he received the news, he was also shocked by Ishihara Wanji's huge appetite. But then again, when he was just a middle- and lower-level officer, that guy dared to plan the "September 18th" incident. Now, He is already the top figure in the Japanese Army, and he has just been tricked by Tojo Hideki and others. If he doesn't take the opportunity to seize power and play with it, will he still have the nerve to call me Ishihara Wanji? In fact, Ishihara Wan'er did not disappoint Qin Wei. After learning that Tojo Hideki and others wanted him to take action again, this man claimed to be ill at home, and even Hirohito's emperor's envoy blocked the door. After that, Doihara Kenji and others came to visit several times. After asking for a meeting and telling him about the difficult situation Japan was facing, he reluctantly agreed to go out. But the conditions he proposed were higher than Qin Wei expected: he wanted the command of all foreign military operations in Japan. In other words, the Tokyo base camp is no longer taken seriously by him. Not only does he have to settle old scores with Tojo Hideki and others, he also wants to directly ignore the entire Japanese navy and army system. This is of course impossible. Not to mention Tojo Hideki, even Emperor Hirohito and the Japanese cabinet would not do it. In addition, the Navy will never agree to be commanded by a guy from the Army, even if they know that this person is good at it. For this reason, Japanese Navy Commander-in-Chief Yamamoto Isoroku, who originally cooperated wholeheartedly with the Army and had some admiration for Ishihara Kanji, also expressed serious dissatisfaction with Ishihara Kanji. In the end, out of "helplessness", Ishihara Kanji obtained the highest command authority in the Chinese theater and Southeast Asian theater. The first thing this guy did was to remove Juichi Terauchi. Then he promoted his old friend Seishiro Sakagaki, and then issued an order to the China Dispatch Force Headquarters in Nanjing to let Shunroku Hata withdraw troops from Shanxi and Wuhan As soon as this order came out, it immediately caused a stir throughout China. There was an uproar. Most Chinese people are happy, because everyone thinks this is a sign that the Japanese cannot hold on and begin to retreat. Most Japanese people were worried and angry, especially the commander-in-chief of the Chinese Expeditionary Forces, Shunroku Hata, who resolutely resisted Ishihara Kanji's orders. He even requested that Tokyo remove Ishihara Kanji and then hand him over to a military court for trial because he suspected that Ishihara Kanji was a Chinese spy. As a result, this request actually received many Japanese soldiers. Especially the support of young and strong soldiers. But the result of such a fight was that Shunroku Hata was removed from his position extremely forcefully by Kanji Ishihara and replaced him. It was Juichi Terauchi who had just been kicked out from the position of commander-in-chief of the Southern Army. It¡¯s a pity that Shouichi Temple lost the battle. Although he had been very strong against the British and Americans before, like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, he suffered two consecutive defeats in Burma, and he became the object of disdain by the Japanese soldiers. Therefore, when he arrived in Nanjing, almost no one came to greet him. Shunroku Hata refused to hand over military command and left him alive outside Nanjing. Japan seems to be showing signs of civil unrest. But the next result stunned everyone: Tokyo sent a special envoy to forcibly remove Shunroku Hata from his power and escort him back to Japan. After that. Juichi Terauchi successfully took over the authority of the China Expeditionary Force headquarters, and immediately ordered Yoshio Shinozuka and Ekichi Anami to withdraw troops from Shanxi and Wuhan. And not long after that, another news came from Tokyo: Japanese local young officers stormed Ishihara Kanji's residence and tried to assassinate him, but Ishihara Kanji, who had been prepared for it, escaped. Not only that, these young officers He was also caught by the ambushed military police force. The two sides once engaged in a fierce battle in front of Ishihara Wanji's house, causing casualties on both sides! *************************************************** ********************** "What the hell are you doing? This shouldn't be at the level of Ishihara Wanji" It's almost collective compared to the Japanese Angry, ordinary Chinese people were excited and gloating, but the top brass of the National Government were worried. Yes, under the forced order of Juichi Terauchi, Shinozuka Yoshio's North China Front Army and Anami Yoshiki's 11th Army did begin to withdraw, but they did not retreat in defeat. On the contrary, this retreat will also be more conducive to Japanese strategy. For example, the Japanese troops in Shanxi withdrew into Henan and Hebei, which allowed them to defend the Taihang Mountains and more easily block the heavy Japanese troops to the west of the Taihang Mountains. At the same time, it also allowed the North China Front, which was originally extremely weak in strength, to gain more room for maneuver and stabilize the situation. The control of Hebei, Henan and other places can also mobilize more troops to encircle and suppress guerrillas and armed forces behind enemy lines in various places; while Anan is likely to lead the 11th Army to retreat eastward from Hubei, it also makes the Kuomintang's Fifth and Third The pressure in the war zone has doubled, but even soIn the future, they can also get more support from the National Government, but the problem is that no matter how much support they get, they basically dare not launch an attack on the enemy. After all, not everyone is like Qin Wei, who fights whenever he wants and wins when he wants. And this means that they can only passively wait for possible attacks by the Japanese, which puts the nerves of the entire war zone in a state of mental stress for a long time. As a result, the consumption in the war zone will inevitably increase, and morale will be greatly affected. If the stalemate continues for such a long time, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers will gradually be dragged down But these are actually nothing. Everyone knows that Japan's real target will only be Southeast Asia, because there is not much they can obtain in the Chinese theater. Blindly entangled with the Chinese army in China will only consume their few resources step by step. resources, thus causing them to gradually fall into a dilemma of defeat. But Ishihara Kanji should not have provoked internal strife within the Japanese Army so fiercely. This is what many people find incomprehensible. "Could it be that this guy wants to create some confusion, and then take advantage of us to launch a counterattack?" Chongqing has had many celebrations recently. After all, the Japanese began to retreat, and it was a strategic retreat. People across the country were extremely happy, even excited. Under such circumstances, as a high-level official in the country, it was absolutely difficult to pour cold water on them. As war stars, He Yingqin, Qin Wei and others could only accompany Chiang Kai-shek on various occasions, accept everyone's cheers, and then, while laughing along with them, discuss Ishihara Wan'er's possible plans in a low voice. trend. "Crying to hide the truth, making false claims in the east and attacking in the west We are all tired of this little trick. Do you think Ishihara Wan'er will do it again so uncreatively?" Listening to He Yingqin's whispered speculation, Qin Wei secretly rolled his eyes. "What's creative but not creative? Killing a chicken with a sledgehammer, as long as you can kill him, it counts!" He Yingqin snorted, "Ishihara Wan'er defeated Timoshenko in a life-and-death fight for the Japanese even though he was at an absolute disadvantage in terms of strength. He has captured most of Siberia, so don¡¯t underestimate him.¡± ¡°I will never underestimate that guy,¡± Qin Weidao said, ¡°And he not only helped Japan capture most of Siberia, but now Japan is attacking Australia. It was also his work. By the way, have you heard that many of the Philippine troops have been dragged to the Australian front line by the Japanese, and their combat effectiveness seems not to be weak. " "Is this happening?" He Yingqin was stunned. "Isn't it going to collapse at the first touch?" "There is a Japanese supervising team behind them. If you dare to take a step back, the machine guns are waiting for you! In this situation, do you think the Filipinos will fight with their former bosses or fight with the Japanese?" smiled. "Yes, this trick is easy to use. You can try it if you have a chance in the future." He Yingqin said with a smile. "There will be a chance." Qin Wei glanced at him, "And as long as you are willing, I guarantee that you can have a good time!" "Don't talk about this first, let's talk about Ishihara Wan'er first That guy let Temple Shou has retreated extensively and has not sent troops from China to Southeast Asia. What exactly is he trying to do? You don't have any news?" Naturally, He Yingqin didn't know that he had been "targeted" by Qin Wei, and he would pay for what he said this time. Many, he only knows that the current situation is a bit tricky. If you don't handle it well and you accidentally lose the battle, then today's scenery may turn into tomorrow's sorrow Just look at the scene of Juichi Terauchi. Who now remembers his exploits in the Philippines and Malaya? "Let me tell you, Ishihara Kanji just wants to change the strategic intentions of Tojo Hideki and his gang while he is in power! In any case, China is their biggest enemy at present. Only by stabilizing the situation in China , they can conquer all directions. Otherwise, if we fight, can they still fight in other places? If they are cut off, there will be no place to cry." Qin Weidao. "You are so confident. Your family knows your own affairs, and Ishihara Wan'er is also a China expert. He should know how strong our power is. In addition to the expeditionary force, there are several war zones across the country that can take the initiative to counterattack. ? In other words, Fu Zuoyi can still bully the Mongolian garrison, and the others are all useless. Well, some may not even be considered good. In this case, does he need to take the initiative to retreat? "He Yingqin said. "I am too confident, you are not confident enough, and Ishihara Wan'er is taking precautions just in case" Qin Wei licked his lips, "But no matter what his plan was, I found that he still ignored an important factor. "What?" He Yingqin asked anxiously. "Well Zhou Fohai is doing well in Qinghai now, isn't he? Ask the chairman if he should be promoted?" Qin Wei grinned and said with a smile. (To be continued)
