Chapter 265 Unarmed Zone of Nanjing Defense War 2

As the prime minister of the Japanese empire, Konoe Wenmao is a typical aristocratic politician and a fascist invading politics. Because of the origin of the family and the emperor, Konoe Wenmao has been deeply received strict tutoring and training by the Royal Pingfan since he was a child. From the age of three, he has had a grandmother to visit the royal family and respected the emperor's loyal feudal ethics in him. I was deeply impressed, but this did not prevent Jinwei Wenlu from putting forward his own opinions. Jinwei Wenlu, who had formed a cabinet three times in history, can be said to be a great impetus to launch a full-scale invasion of China.

The armistice proposed by Emperor Hirohito is equivalent to the collapse of his guard cabinet, and the subsequent international political deception is equivalent to the international declaration that his guard is a guy with no credibility, and how can a guy with no credibility represent a country? At this moment, Jinwei Wenmiao's mood is extremely complicated.

However, Emperor Hirohito can't feel the entanglement of Konoe Fumi. In his opinion, he should do anything for him and the Japanese empire. Emperor Hirohito has put himself on the altar, but the key is that Konoe Fumihiro does not regard him as a god. Konoe Fumihiro respects imperialism, which is similar to Jane. There is an essential difference between the single Bushido spirit. It can be said that Konoe Fumimaro is equivalent to looking at the essence through the surface. In addition, Konoe Fumimaro and Emperor Hirohito still have a deep personal relationship, so it is even more impossible for Konoe Fumimaro to worship his special friend as a god.

For Emperor Hirohito's arrangement, Jinwei Wenmao was full of complaints and hardships. In the end, Jinwei Wenmao could only shake his head helplessly. After all, the Nanjing war situation has undergone such a great change, and even Prince Hatohiko of Chaoxiang Palace has become a headless lonely ghost. If this battle persists, I'm afraid that the Chinese branch dispatch army will be Thoroughly fight the disabled, negotiate a fake armistice while the strategic initiative of the war, mobilize the troops to hoard ammunition and materials, paralyze the enemy with politics, and then give the enemy a fierce blow? However, Jin Wei Wenmao is very clear that the beginning of the Imperial Army's attack on Xuzhou was the fall of his cabinet. Because he deceived the whole international community, the fall of the cabinet is the only choice. It's not easy to give up the power you have! Jinwei Wenmiao smiled helplessly.

Emperor Hirohito instructed Prince Zairen, who acted as a special envoy. The premise of Nanjing becoming an armistice in the unarmed zone is to return the head of Prince Hatohiko of Chaoxiang Palace. This is a prerequisite for opening armistice negotiations. In order to paralyze China, Army Minister Sugiyama Yuan also successively put forward provisions such as North China autonomy, compensation for military expenses, so that China's political axe believes in the negotiation. After all, negotiation is a matter of paying off the money at a high price.

Tada Jun stood under the sunset in the west and looked at the dilapidated Nanjing City. The sound of gunfire was still ringing. After the night flight's critical strike aircraft brigade collapsed the last section of the wall of Xishuimen, nearly 100 remaining Chinese defenders carried out a fearless death attack, and the Chinese soldiers who ran out of food were finally The department fell on the way to charge.

Despite the dissuasion of his subordinates, Tada Jun changed into a sergeant's clothes and carried a dry food bag on his back. Like a food delivery man, he personally visited this position. It was said that the decisive spirit of the imperial army of the empire was first defeated in Chengde, and then suffered a fiasco in Nanjing. Most of the more than 100 Chinese soldiers were With bandages, it can be concluded that they are the wounded, and even the wounded have organized to fight, indicating that Zhang Xuewu has reached the point of exhaustion. Even so, Nanjing City is like a black hole that devours the lives of imperial officers and soldiers.

Every street and every building in Nanjing, until it is blown into ruins and razed to the ground, otherwise there will be [***] soldiers who resist stubbornly. The complex streets and solid buildings in Nanjing make the offensive troops of the Japanese army can only do it little by little. Attacks like ants gnawing bones, and locations such as the Engineering School, Jinling Patriotic Girls Middle School and the Thirteenth Street Building have been operated as fortresses. Even fierce bombing and shelling cannot be completely destroyed. They can only rely on the attack of infantry layer by layer. The positions captured during the day to night. It is difficult to hold on to the back of the Chinese defenders. A building or a line of defense often has to change hands more than a dozen times. It is said that the two officers and soldiers are tired of abandoning their bodies in the urban area.

Although the main force of the [***] chariot troops was annihilated with the cooperation of the bombing, and the sporadic [***] chariot troops were no longer a problem, but a large number of automatic weapons and anti-tank rifles and magnetic grenades equipped with [***] caused serious losses to the imperial chariot troops that invaded the urban area of Nanjing. All the jade fragments of the World War II Wing and the Fourth Battle Car Wing made Tada Jun annoyed. Won't Yoshikawa and Tada, the two fools, leave a few chariots? Do you have to work hard? Do you want to bear the notoriety of the destruction of the whole army?

As of 19 o'clock, the Ninth Division, the 101st Division and the 14th Division cooperated with the 38th Reading Mixed Brigade to capture the front-line positions of Zhima Camp and Confucius Temple. The capture and occupation of the two places did not make Tada Jun feel a trace of joy?

The death of Prince Hatohiko of the Central Branch can be said to have put a lot of pressure on him. Prince Hatohiko of the former commander of the Central Branch, actually died in his own headquarters. Dozens of military staff officers of the whole Central Branch dispatched to the headquarters were all killed. This loss made Tada Jun hurt as soon as he closed his eyes. You know, In the three-level system of the army from Lu Xiao to Lu Shi to Lu University, all of them are rigidly trained exactly the same talents. They can enter the staff headquarters with the rank of officer. Finally, the staff officers assigned to the dispatching army headquarters are all elites who have a promising future for Lu University. More than 50 people have been cut off at once. Tada Jun is not careful. That's why it hurts!

In addition, for the ghost force in the middle of [***], Tada Jun has a feeling that it is difficult to prevent at night? How to sneak in the heavily defensive camp to the enemy? Landmines everywhere? Explosives? Sniper raid? Finally, he grabbed his own boat and left? Is your own headquarters like a girl in a cheap kiln on the street? Who wants to touch it?

Tada Jun knew that Tokyo had made a decision at this moment, so he was not in a hurry, because even if he captured Nanjing at this moment, what could he do? What the empire needs is absolute strategic initiative. If the Battle of Nanjing lasts for a month, the empire is likely to lose the strategic initiative that has been tightly held in its hands.

After the fall, Tada Jun finally waited for the telegram of Tokyo. The base camp imperial meeting decided to officially stop the war at 00:00 on June 30, 1937, and the Central Branch Dispatch Army was revoked. The six generals of Hata Jun were the commander-in-chief of the China Dispatch Army, and the subordinates of the Central China Front Army and the North China Front Army, Prince Zairen acted as the armistice. The representative of the Plenipotentiary will arrive in Shanghai to start negotiations with China's political axe. The telegram was accompanied by an overall plan of cooperation and action, ordering Tada Jun to cooperate with Prince Zairen to complete his mission.

The telegram slipped to the ground in Tada Jun's hands. As the evening wind blew up and burned and danced in the residual fire beside him, several staff officers next to him looked at Tada Jun in surprise. The important decision of the base camp imperial meeting, the telegram translation with the chrysanthemum logo was thrown away at will?

You should know that after the headquarters was attacked by the middle [***], the base camp staff headquarters instructed to immediately send powerful personnel to assist, so as not to destroy the scene as much as possible. Because multiple sets of password books were seized by the middle [***], now the three sets of codes and backup codes at or above the level of the division sent by the Central Branch are invalid. Waiting for the local staff headquarters to send a backup password, the only one that can be used is this set of codes that are directly connected to the base camp. Every time the excerpt of the report is issued, special standard paper must be used to show respect for the resolution of the imperial meeting and respect for the royal family.

However, at this moment, Tada Jun has not been in that mood for a long time. Originally, the position of the commander of the Chinese dispatched army should be his. For the so-called honor of the royal family, Emperor Hirohito first asked Prince Hatohiko Asakamiya, a stupid pig, to replace the old man of Matsui Ishine. After the war situation was unfavorable, he lost the flag of the infantry wing, it was clear that He recalled Prince Hatohiko of Chaoxiang Palace, but once again issued a decree to let him share his own honor in Nanjing? As a result, I didn't expect that this unlucky fool was killed by the attack team of [***] in his own headquarters?

In Tada Jun's view, the base camp decided to assign the 24th Division, the 25th Division, the 36th Division, the 37th Division and the 40th Division of the 5th Army of Ningji Okamura to the 6th Brigade of the Vehicle and the 7th Brigade of the Heavy Artillery. As the main force of the Central China Front Army, it attacked along the southern section of Jinpu Road. Meijin The 51st Division, 55th Division and 56th Division of the Fifth Division of Mijiro's Eighth Army were assigned to the Itagaki Seishiro troops of the 5th Brigade, which landed in Qingdao, and attacked the main force of Han Fuyu in Shandong. After the Central Division was merged into the North China Front, the Third Division, the Sixth Division and the Ninth Division, The 101st Division was assigned to the Second Brigade of Field Heavy Artillery. With the strength of the twelve divisions, it broke through the Longhai Line in five routes, and then directly broke through and attacked Xuzhou with the Gangcun Ningci Fifth Army as the main force.

Xuzhou has the lock key of the northern country in ancient China, known as the gateway of the southern country, and has always been a must-have place for soldiers! In Tada Jun's view, the idiots in the base camp are finally enlightened. The occupation of Nanjing is just a political show, which is essentially different from the strategic significance of the capture of Xuzhou. The comparison between the two can be said to be a world of difference.

It's not too late to change it now, but for him, Tada Jun felt helpless and indignant for his future for the first time. It seemed that fate played a huge joke on him!

Looking at Nanjing, where the sound of gunfire seems to be getting more and more intense, Tada Jun waved his hand very tiredly and said, "I will fully implement the armistice order at 24 o'clock. Before that, let them fire ammunition to their heart's content!"

In the extremely surprised eyes of the division commanders and brigade commanders, Tada Jun turned around and said, "I want to rest for a while!" Don't disturb me!"
