Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    On the hospital bed, Emperor Hirohito of Japan, who was ill and torn to pieces, had already given very clear instructions on how to deal with the war in Manchuria, but the ministers were silent, including the named General Mitsuichi Yoneuchi, the Minister of War and Acting Chief of General Staff of the base camp, who was also silent.  The expression on his face changes.

    No one would object to taking the current Commander-in-Chief of the Kwantung Army, Nanjiro, as the scapegoat for the fall of Manchuria and the demise of more than two million Kwantung Army soldiers. This is a natural thing. Now, the public opinion in the country has reached its peak, and many doubts have emerged.  The military even questioned His Majesty the Emperor's remarks. If they did not introduce a scapegoat, the terrible fact that Manchuria fell and the entire Kwantung Army was shattered would hit the domestic people almost crazy, and the situation would probably be out of control.

    As the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, Nanjiro is the best person to calm domestic public opinion anyway. He has enough weight and is at the right time. None of the big guys present are more suitable as a scapegoat than Nanjiro. Regarding this point  , no one disagrees with His Majesty the Emperor's decision, and no one dares to make a fuss and complain for Nanjiro at this time, it is obviously a matter of burning one's body!

    The crux of the matter is that His Majesty the Emperor was too cruel. He used the excuse of summoning Nanjiro back to the country to report on his duties, but secretly handled the special military court. I am afraid that Nanjiro will be directly blocked by the military police and special police as soon as he sets foot on the mainland.  Get in the prison car and take it to court!

    ¡°Even the big bosses who take conspiracy and conspiracy as their daily routine, and who don¡¯t deal with rivals from different factions all day long, make trouble every hour of the day, and have trouble sleeping and eating, still feel that His Majesty the Emperor¡¯s behavior is too dirty.  It's simply despicable and has no bottom line. There is no limit to what you can do. Is it necessary to use such a shady method?

    An order from the base camp.  Nanjiro dared not be recalled to the country, he dared to disobey military orders, even if he was asked to be a scapegoat, at least he should be more aboveboard in his methods, these words.  It kept floating around in the stomachs of all the civil and military ministers, but no one dared to bring it up.  Therefore, the only way to deal with it is to remain silent!

    "Actually, Emperor Hirohito didn't want to do this either. How should I put it?  Seems too despicable.  But he was worried that once Nanjiro was ordered to return to China and be tried by a special military court for the Manchuria war situation, who could guarantee that other unexpected things would not happen?

    With Nan Jiro¡¯s political wisdom, he will naturally understand it from the moment he receives the order.  As soon as he sets foot on the mainland, what awaits him.  It is definitely not a good outcome. If, if, Nanjiro chooses to escape and surrender to that China devil Tang Qiuli, the impact on himself and the Empire of Japan will be so great that even Emperor Hirohito dare not think about it.  Nanjiro is a heavyweight senior army general in the empire.

    Thinking of surrender, Emperor Hirohito suddenly thought of the report in the newspaper that the commander of the Kwantung Army's First Army, Shiro Kashii, was exactly the scum of the emperor's people, a bastard who was greedy for life and feared death, and took the lead in announcing the surrender to the independent division.  The troops surrendered, causing hundreds of thousands of brave and capable Kwantung Army soldiers to surrender without a fight. Manchuria was about to fall, making the Empire of Japan lose face in front of the world!

    When he thought of this, Emperor Hirohito felt his chest was congested, and a mouthful of blood rushed to his throat. "Cough, cough, cough!" He suddenly coughed violently, and a sickly flush appeared on his sallow face.  The civil and military ministers who were concerned about the incident hurriedly gathered around, no matter whether it was true or false, they shouted continuously, some with tears in their eyes to console them, and some shouting for doctors, making the palace a scene as if something big had happened.  !

    Waving his hands feebly, Emperor Hirohito asked the ministers to step back. He coughed for a while. After he calmed down, the flush on his face faded, but his face became increasingly sallow, but it did not prevent him from speaking. His tone was still cold and gloomy, "I  Think about it, the main culprit for the defeat of Manchuria is Nanjiro, and the person directly responsible is that Kashii Shiro, this scum of the emperor, who surrendered without any moral integrity! "

    "Also, those dozens of senior officers above the rank of major general are colluding with others. They are all greedy and fearful of death. They are not worthy of the honor and title of emperor. They bring only shame to the empire, endless shame.  Dear Lord Minai, in the name of the Ministry of War, declare the above-mentioned Kwantung Army officers to be traitors, announce it to all the people, and let the people criticize them with words and writings! "

    "In addition, the Military Advocate General's Department at the base camp, in conjunction with the Military Police Headquarters, will thoroughly investigate the relatives and families of these scum of the empire in the local area. All officers from the rank of lieutenant and above will be investigated and imprisoned in concentration camps. All officers who betrayed the empire will be made aware of their betrayal.  The price to pay!¡±

    "We are together, all caused by Nanjiro's inaction and incompetence. I love you, Mineai, and immediately issued an order to summon Nanjiro back to the country to report on his duties!"

    General Minaiguang, who was called out again, had to speak up. He looked embarrassed, and after a long while, he said slowly: "Your Majesty, all your orders will be obeyed. However, the General Staff of the base camp  , has lost contact with the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army Nanjiro,After making contact, the radio station has been calling since yesterday, but there has been no reply. I guess that something bad has happened to Nanjiro!  "

    "Moreover, I contacted Lieutenant General Matsuda Kenjiro, Chief of General Staff of the Kwantung Army, but there was no response. This further confirms my judgment. I am afraid that Fengtian has fallen, and all the officers of the Kwantung Army headquarters are shattered by the empire!"

    "Bastard!" Emperor Hirohito was going crazy. Now, there is no possibility of even catching a scapegoat. If Nanjiro dies in battle and loses Manchuria, who will bear the responsibility?

    Emperor Hirohito sat up with a cry, and his fierce eyes swept over the ministers one after another. The ministers felt as if they were being stared at by evil wolves, their hair stood on end, cold sweat dripped down their spines, and the palace was as dead as a stone.  of silence.

    After being besieged for several days by Wang Dongshan, chief of staff of the Marine Corps of the Independent Division, commanded by five brigades, Fengtian City became increasingly lifeless after nightfall. There were almost no lights in the entire city, only on the periphery of the city.  The sound of gunfire from time to time brought a little life to the city, reminding the citizens that the war was around them. The streets were empty without a single pedestrian. The autumn wind in August swept through the empty streets, rolling up waves of  Dust and dead leaves.

    Fengtian, the building where the Kwantung Army headquarters is located. Looking from the outside, the eight-story building is dark without a trace of light, like a tomb, standing eerie in the night. Chu Tian, ??leader of the special operations detachment of the Independent Division  , with a special operations team of more than 80 soldiers, under the guidance of latent agents from the Fengtian Intelligence Station of the Intelligence Department, were standing in a small building less than 500 meters away from the Kwantung Army headquarters, holding up a telescope  , observe the situation carefully.

    In accordance with the orders of the division commander, Chutian led several action groups of the special operations detachment and five reconnaissance battalions transferred from the Southeast Mobile Corps, totaling more than 3,000 people, under the cover of agents lurking in Fengtian in the Intelligence Department and Investigation Department.  , divided into multiple routes, and within a few days, they successfully sneaked into the war-torn Fengtian City in batches. After entering Fengtian, they reinforced hundreds of agents from the two departments and branches.

    During the period of sneaking into Fengtian, Chutian was very busy. The soldiers of the special operations detachment worked in groups, led the scouts, and attacked everywhere, creating a lot of damage to the Kwantung Army military police and the puppet Manchukuo city defense forces in Fengtian City.  The big trouble has caused panic in Fengtian City. Citizens have spread wildly that at least tens of thousands of special forces from the Independent Division have entered Fengtian City.

    However, the Kwantung Army military police unit responsible for maintaining public security in Fengtian did not have the energy or strength to mobilize enough troops to destroy the independent division soldiers who had sneaked into the city.  All the troops were attracted to the battle outside Fengtian!

    This afternoon, Chutian exchanged telegrams with Wang Dongshan, Chief of Staff of the Marine Corps of the Independent Division that attacked Fengtian, and learned that the Liaoxi Campaign had ended successfully. In the telegram, Wang Dongshan informed Chutian that the division commander had issued an order within two days.  The capture of Fengtian requires the full cooperation of the special operations detachment's infiltration troops.

    For such a battle, Chu Tian knew how to fight. He sent most of the latent agents from the Intelligence Department and Investigation Department, several action teams from the Special Operations Detachment, and five reconnaissance battalions to all directions to provide guidance to the attacking troops.  Roads and objectives to capture.

    As for himself, he brought an action team to the Kwantung Army headquarters. Chu Tian made a bold decision to capture the thief first, sneak into the Kwantung Army headquarters, capture the Kwantung Army Commander-in-Chief Nanjiro alive, and destroy the Kwantung Army in one fell swoop.  The highest command body of the army.

    Chutian's decision was not a risk, nor was it a grand achievement. Based on his full understanding of the situation of the Kwantung Army troops in Fengtian City, Wang Dongshan's tens of thousands of troops surrounded Fengtian for several days. The Kwantung Army troops in Fengtian City and  The puppet Manchurian rebel troops have all been sent to the front line. According to Chu Tian's estimation, the Kwantung Army's guard strength in Fengtian City is almost empty at this moment. This is an opportunity.

    After observing for a while, relying on his battlefield experience that year, Chu Tian instinctively felt that there were not many people in the Kwantung Army headquarters building, so he issued an order in a low voice, "The whole team is divided into three groups, and they cover each other step by step and sneak into the Kwantung Army."  Military headquarters, the key target is the Commander-in-Chief of the Kwantung Army, Nanjiro. Try to capture him alive. If the enemy discovers it, immediately switch to a violent attack. In ten minutes, start the operation! "

    Then, Chu Tian said to the lurking agents from the Intelligence Department: "Your mission is completed, evacuate immediately!"

    In the dark night, the soldiers of the special operations detachment blended into the night. They avoided the closed door as nimbly as a civet cat and climbed over the high wall. More than eighty people entered the courtyard of the Kwantung Army headquarters.  There was no movement at all, and there was no Kwantung Army sentry carrying a 38-gun, wandering back and forth. It was quiet, so quiet that it was unsettling.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?He stared sharply at the entrance of the building, and with a gesture, more than 20 soldiers from the special operations detachment quickly rushed in.
