The thirty-fourth year of the Republic of China, also the twentieth year of the Showa era in Japan, was destined to be a chaotic and unstable year. The early spring of this year came belatedly, and it was not until mid-April that the weather became slightly warmer. There are just a few green buds, and for all the war-torn people in the world, this year means far more than that. In April, news came from Europe that the Russian army had entered Germany, and the leading troops of the Allied forces had also entered the western border of Germany. The two torrents of steel were like an iron vice, tightly strangling the German Empire from the east and west. throat. On the 25th, the Allied and Russian armies successfully met at the Elbe River. The armies were encircled and the last battle on the European battlefield began. On the 28th, Italian leader Mussolini was executed. On the 30th, The Russian army captured Berlin before the Allies, Hitler, the Third Reich's aid, committed suicide, and the two Axis empires were declared destroyed. Japan became the only remaining member of the Axis Powers and fell into a desperate situation. After the US military conquered Iwo Jima, its troops arrived in Okinawa, only a short distance away from the Japanese mainland. The Japanese Southern Army, the Chinese Expeditionary Force, the Kwantung Army and the mainland were completely lost. The transportation channel was divided into several large groups, waiting anxiously for the coming doomsday. The panoramic view of Myanmar has been successfully recovered by the Chinese Expeditionary Force. Xiao Shanling, Sun Liren and other units of the expeditionary force have entered the Philippines and Thailand. The Southern Army has lost supplies from the rear and can only rely on fortifications and fortifications. On the Chinese battlefield, the anti-Japanese base areas belong to The Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army have launched a full-scale counterattack, launching a final counterattack against the Japanese army from behind enemy lines. The main force of the national army has launched attacks from Hubei, Hunan, and Sichuan to chase down the remaining enemies. Even the puppet troops in the occupied areas have begun to form an organized army carrying a large number of Their equipment surrendered, and the Japanese troops in North China, Jiangsu and Zhejiang could only huddle in the cities and live in panic all day long. The Russian Far East troops have also begun to gather, and a large number of tanks and armored forces are advancing towards the front line of Manchuria in Northeast China. The Kwantung Army began to build a large number of reinforced concrete fortifications last year, hoping to withstand the upcoming all-line offensive of the Russian army, and near the Hokkaido front line In the waters, ships of the Russian Far East Fleet began to appear frequently. "It seems that your movements are quite fast." Lin Xiaotang sipped tea casually and looked at Takeda Takeo opposite, whose face was slightly flushed due to excitement. ¡°For more than half a year, Takeda Yixiong has always adhered to his responsibilities and stayed firmly by Lin Xiaotang¡¯s side. Although there was no one to supervise him, the two of them maintained extraordinarily sobriety and tacit understanding. After all, this was a tiger¡¯s den and a wolf¡¯s den. Takeda Takeda was quite dissatisfied with Lin Xiaotang's initial suggestion. Although he was a staunch Soviet supporter, his understanding of Japan also made him have little confidence in Lin Xiaotang's plan. But the frequent accidents in the past six months forced him to re-evaluate and examine this young man with an unspectacular appearance. The turmoil in Kyushu is still raging to this day. The government troops in Kyushu and the crusade troops dispatched by the base camp have always been powerless against the elusive rebels. Several well-planned annihilation battles have been in vain. The rebels' high mobility and transfer ability have made The government troops were disappointed, which reminded Takeda Takeda of the guerrillas who had been active on the battlefield behind enemy lines in China from beginning to end. "It's only a matter of time before the Americans capture Okinawa. If we don't take action, I'm afraid it will be too late." Takeda Takeo licked his lips. Lin Xiaotang smiled knowingly. Compared to the Americans and Russians, he was actually more afraid of Russia. There was no other reason than that China and Russia were adjacent to each other. With such a powerful neighbor right next to his bed, there was no need to be wary. , that is absolutely impossible, but as far as the current situation is concerned, such a powerful opponent is indeed needed to connect to Asian affairs. Otherwise, the Americans will dominate China. Never a good thing. Since there is already a German precedent, we might as well do the same with the Japanese. At least we can obtain a rare balanced situation. In this way, the importance of China will be clearly revealed. "I heard a strange thing yesterday." Takeda Takeo changed the subject, "The rebels from Kyushu had clearly captured Nagasaki, but in less than three days, they abandoned the city and turned around. And went south to attack the Amakusa Islands, why is that?" As soon as Takeda Yixiong finished speaking, his eyes were fixed on Lin Xiaotang. This action of the Kyushu anti-government forces made him suspicious for no reason. Nagasaki is Northern Kyushu. An important stronghold, firmly guarding Kitakyushu and even the westward seaport of Kyushu. It is also an important channel for transportation and communication between the Kyushu region and the outside world. Since the turmoil was started by Lin Xiaotang, he would not understand the importance of Nagasaki to the entire war situation. The importance of it, how could it be given up so easily? Lin Xiaotang stretched lazily and leaned into the sunlight coming in from outside the house."You know, I'm in Kanto now, and I can't get involved in Kyushu's military affairs. Maybe their chief officer has other plans, and I make decisions based on actual needs. I'm a very self-aware person. Military affairs Commanding is not my strong suit, and it would be more appropriate to leave it to front-line officers." Lin Xiaotang's nonchalant answer made Takeda Yixiong feel depressed. The nearly one year of interaction had made him understand the situation well. Although the city of this ally and future opponent knew that it was still unclear and unpredictable, his instinct told him that this unusual move by the Kyushu Army was definitely not simple. Takeda Yixiong snorted, knowing that Lin Xiaotang was practicing Tai Chi and it was impossible to get his true thoughts, so he simply drank up the tea in front of him and stood up to leave. As soon as Takeda Yixiong left, Huoyan ran in excitedly, "Brother Seven, something happened in Hiroshima." Lin Xiaotang took the telegram he handed over, glanced at it briefly, lit it with a lighter, and looked at Huoyan's excited expression. expression, but a hint of worry flashed across his face, "Inform Gao Yingpei that the progress of the plan must be accelerated. Nagasaki might as well keep more cannon fodder. Since Hirohito sent Asakamiya Hatuhiko to quell the rebellion, he might as well let him Let him be buried with Nagasaki" Heihachiro Fukuda looked at the Nagasaki Castle in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Fukuda had never expected that he would reach this point. He originally just wanted to satisfy his needs with his friends. Unexpectedly, he became the leader of this turmoil. Although the government forced the people to rebel, he suddenly stood on the opposite side of His Majesty the Emperor, who had always worshiped and believed in him. This kind of change was also difficult for Fukuda. Fortunately, even though the leaders of the Chamber of Commerce put forward the slogan "Qing Jun Side", this gave Fukuda some comfort. Although he knew it was just a casual expression, Fukuda always felt that his original intention was this. . In less than half a year, Fukuda Heihachiro's command has gathered more than 30,000 hungry people from all over Kyushu. Among them are some retired veterans who have been treated unfairly, and most of them are frustrated officers who were forced to transfer to reserve service. On several occasions, these frustrated officers wanted to take control of this armed force. Fukuda also understood that he was by no means a match for these so-called samurai masters. Regardless of their qualifications, family background and knowledge, these frustrated officers were never able to do so. On the contrary, for this reason Many people died, and the reason was that the Chamber of Commerce had always firmly supported Fukuda Heihachiro behind his back. Heihachiro Fukuda didn¡¯t read much and knew very few principles, but he knew very well that with the support of this powerful chamber of commerce, people like him would never be able to persist today, and it would be impossible for so many people to come to him. Because the logistics supplies of the entire army are firmly in the hands of the Chamber of Commerce, including weapons, ammunition, food, etc. Without the support of the Chamber of Commerce, the army cannot survive for even a week. Futian vaguely felt that he was just a puppet pulling strings, but the threads were always firmly in the hands of the Chamber of Commerce. If he wanted to survive and get everything he wanted, he must obey the orders of the Chamber of Commerce. The leader of the Chamber of Commerce finally showed his face. He was a bloated middle-aged man with a harmless smile on his face. Throughout the year, there was a touch of sweat on his fat and white face, and he kept holding a Wearing a handkerchief, she speaks softly to everyone she talks to. But Heihachiro Fukuda didn't think so. Every time he got close to the fat leader of the Chamber of Commerce, he couldn't help but feel a bone-chilling chill. Fukuda had been on the battlefield and knew exactly what it was. It was a kind of cold that could not be concealed. of murderous intent. Heihachiro Fukuda saw with his own eyes that the fat leader killed nine officers who tried to seize command of the army while talking and laughing. He didn't even use a gun, but just used a rusty and gapped samurai sword to kill them himself. Taking the heads of those nine people was the highest level of punishment for the defeated in Japan. But today, Heihachiro Fukuda had to come to the fat leader with anxiety. The fat leader was still smiling. When he saw Fukuda, the smile on his face became even brighter. This made Fukuda feel even more unsure. Even his voice was trembling a little. He had to stutter and explain why he couldn't give up Nagasaki. reason. The fat leader listened patiently to Fukuda Heihachiro's explanation, and couldn't help but burst into laughter. The fat on his face trembled because of it, "Fukuda-kun, your opinion is correct. The reason why we made the decision to give up before was that we could not consider it." Zhou, but you must also consider specific factors. His Majesty the Emperor has appointed King Asaka Palace Hatohiko as the commander of the expeditionary army. The 50,000 elite Kyushu expeditionary army is under his command. It is now less than fifty kilometers away from Nagasaki. Hearing this, Futian wanted to argue again, but the fat leader quickly waved his hand, "Don't get me wrong, Mr. Futian, I agree with your suggestion. In this way,?As the supreme commander of the army, it is not appropriate to hold on to Nagasaki. Your deputy Aoyama-kun can stay as the commander of the Nagasaki garrison and lead the main force to hold on. You and I still have to withdraw and organize our troops immediately. How about launching a counter-encirclement around Nagasaki and annihilating the punitive forces in one fell swoop. " Futian was overjoyed when he heard this, "Your decision is extremely wise, and I will definitely abide by it. "
