Chapter 300 Snow Red and Blood White 1

Zhang Xuewu checked the so-called county records of Zhangbei and other 16 counties. The average temperature in winter is between minus 27 and 34 degrees. However, most of these records are in recent years. In the past, many drops of water turned into ice and other words, which made people crazy and unable to judge. However, since the Ming Dynasty, Rehe and Suiyuan have been There have been cases where hundreds of garrison officers and soldiers stationed at the beacon tower were frozen to death. However, considering the characteristics of the small ice age of the Ming Dynasty, it is estimated that the temperature may also drop below minus 40 degrees.

Different from the global warming of later generations, as long as the so-called white-haired wind blows in the hot river during this period, the temperature will suddenly drop by more than ten degrees, which is almost appalling. Moreover, the hot river, Suiyuan, Chahar and other places are all necessary places for the diversion of the Siberian cold current, and they are all famous outlets, just like the locals. As it is said, it is windy twice a year, once for half a year.

Zhang Xuewu has always thought that although he was a little stupid, he didn't remember to eat or beat? After only a few years of Chengde's bloody war, did I dare to attack myself again in worse weather? My tank can't drive, and my tank can't do it either. The attendance rate of my fighter is extremely low, and it is a problem for me to take off.

However, it is obvious that Zhang Xuewu ignored a person. This person can't be called Dongjo Yingji from a normal point of view. As a general, he is famous for his bravery. After three efforts, he was admitted to Lu University under the care of him. As the senior of Hideki Tojo, the military commander Nagata Tieshan, who was killed during the February 6th mutiny, said a word that influenced Tojo's life with his insight into the Japanese society: "Tojo is a person who will shoulder the burden of the Japanese army in the future." You should know that at that time, in the Japanese army, Yongtian Tieshan was known as the first brain in the army for its intelligence, and he had strong political ability among soldiers. He was recognized as a leading figure in the ruling faction. He was a well-known important figure in the future of the Japanese army. He could do so to Tojo, an ordinary person who had been admitted to Luda University after signing up three times. The high evaluation is enough to make Hideki Tojo grateful for the rest of his life, but Hideki Tojo does not know that there is an unknown sentence after the famous remark of Nagata Tieshan, that is, if Tojo is a figure of the army in the future, it will be a disaster!

In the eyes of Ishihara Guaner, Tojo Hideki is not only immoral and incompetent, but even his appearance makes him unbearable. This is also the main reason why Tojo Hideki does not like Ishihara Guaner. Can you criticize me for being immoral and incompetent? But you are absolutely not allowed to attack my ugly appearance. You should know that Hideki Tojo is still very satisfied with his appearance and is proud of it!

It is common for Ishihara to say bad things about Hideki Tojo behind his back. Tojo can only manage two machine guns, and there is nothing he can do if there are more than two machine guns. Ishihara Guaner also said to face to face that Tojo Hideki, who has been promoted to lieutenant general, is a top soldier of Tojo!

In fact, this is closely related to Ishihara Guaner's imperial school, because two. At the time of the February 6th mutiny, Ishihara Guaner had been pulled aside for a long time. Fortunately, there was not much involvement, but Tojo Yingji, who was appointed as the commander of the gendarmerie of the Kwantung Army at that time, issued secret telegrams and secret orders to the divisions, brigades and gendarmes scattered in various places, ordering the immediate execution of the rebels. According to the blacklist of the Huangdao faction, the military police of the pseudo-Xinjing acted quickly to arrest and kill all the senior officers of the Huangdao faction who pseudo-Xinjing.

On the other hand, Hideki Tojo lost no time to send a telegram to the emperor and the military, stating his position, claiming that the Kwantung Army opposed military advice and firmly supported the emperor. Hideki Tojo's decisive action immediately stabilized the situation of the Kwantung Army and made the ruling faction firmly control the emperor of the Kwantung Army. The flower of the army calls for Tokyo's rebellion.

After the rebellion, Hideki Tojo was deeply appreciated by the ruling faction, so that he sat on the throne of the chief of staff of the Kwantung Army. This unexpected promotion also made Hideki Tojo ecstatic and decided to show his fists and feet to completely eliminate Zhang Xuewu, who had always been regarded as a confidant by the imperial army of the Empire.

On January 25, 1938, Emperor Hirohito officially issued a decision at the Imperial Conference of the base camp, with the strength of the other four brigades of the seven divisions of the North China Front Army, assigned to the 6th and 7th brigades of the field heavy artillery, the 11th and 12th regiments of reading chariots, and secretly assembled with the main force of the Kwantung Army with Zunhua as the center.

The Kwantung Army is the first front army under the command of Zhouliary. The main force of the 2nd, 8th and 12th divisions under its jurisdiction has gathered and attacked from the direction of Fuxin in the northwest of Chaoyang. The 10th Division, 22nd Division, 35th Division and 36th Division under the jurisdiction of the Second Front Army of Isogu Lianjie The division headquarters gathered from the direction of Jinzhou to attack in the southwest direction of Chaoyang and besieged Chaoyang. If the [[***] team reinforces or counterattacks from the direction of Chengde, it should be blocked by the main force of the North China Front.

The Sixth Division, the 14th Division, the Thirty-fifth Brigade and the Thirty-sixth Brigade and the Thirty-sixth Brigade, and the Thirty-sixth Brigade, attacking Zhangjiakou at all costs. The 38th Division and the Thirty-ninth Divisions of the Thirty-nine Divisions shouted to attack Chengde and Chifeng respectively, and contained the [***] team in the 10th Theater on the whole line.

Hideki Tojo personally commanded the Kohara Lijiang chariot division and the 23rd Mechanized Division to be on standby near Datong.

Emperor Hirohito used a lot of edicts to use the language in the battle order. The rise and fall of the imperial kingdom in this battle, striving for 2,000 years of power and other words that can only be used in the great battle that determines the fate of the empire during the Russian War, as the commander-in-chief of the Chinese dispatched army, Terauchi Shouyi and the Kwantung Army. Commander Kenkichi Ueda, both of them felt that the burden on their shoulders was frightening.

Because of this war, Duotian Jun, who was almost transferred to the reserve, was still appointed as the commander of the Central China Front Army. For this reason, Tada Jun assigned the Third Division, the Ninth Division, the 16th Division and the 101st Division of the Central China Front Army to the 2nd Brigade of the Field Heavy Artillery, and the whole line advanced in the direction of Xuzhou. The scale transfer confused the fifth war zone, and Zhang Xuewu, who was also confused, launched a full-scale offensive in the most inappropriate season and the most unlikely time!

The North China Front Army, with the 24th Division, the 25th Division, the 37th Division, the 40th Division under the 5th Army of Ningci Okamura, the 6th Brigade of the chariot and the 7th Brigade of the Heavy Artillery, should cut off the reinforcement of the Chengde Middle [***] team to Chaoyang, and the fifth of the 8th Army of Meizu Meijiro. The Eleventh Division, the 55th Division and the 56th Division's Fifth Brigade of Heavy Artillery are also secretly gathering in Peiping, leaving only the troops of the other brigade of the two divisions of Itagaki Zhengshiro's troops on the whole Jinpu Road in Xuzhou.

In the early morning of January 26, 1938, Kenkichi Ueda announced the implementation of the Shenfeng battle plan with the strategic purpose of annihilating the main force of the tenth war zone and destroying its Baotou industrial base. He said that he seemed to have pinned all their hopes on the scene. On the lingering "divine wind", in the thirteenth century, Kublai Khan planned to conquer the original with all his strength. Unfortunately, he encountered two monsoons in succession. As a result, his attack plan was frustrated. The Shinto monks called these monswinds the divine winds. They thought that these two monsoons were the knots they prayed to the old rabbit in the sky. Fruit.

In front of the Yasukuni Shrine in Kudanban, more than 900 fresh army non-commissioned officers and students in the army's second lieutenant' uniforms uniform and command knives were neatly lined up. In the past, this ceremony was held in front of the palace, and the graduated non-commissioned officers were indoctrination for the last time before going to the battlefield. However, this time, the location was changed from Zhentianfu to Yasukuni Shrine.

I have a characteristic, that is, whether it is good or bad, as long as it is different, it is good. The oath I used to take in Zhentianfu suddenly changed to the Yasukuni Shrine? This made these non-commissioned officers and students feel extremely excited. The hands of these young officers who were determined to be loyal to militarism were clasped together, and they vowed to die for the emperor.

The real reason is that the war was approaching. Emperor Hirohito did not want to be disturbed, so he ordered a temporary change of place. Except for a few people with excellent grades, this group of graduates were all supplemented to the Kwantung Army and the North China Front Army, because the battle plan against the main force of the 10th war zone of the China [***] team was regarded by Emperor Hirohito. For the sake of the battle of national fortune, whether it can strategically consolidate the existing occupied area depends on whether it can annihilate the main force of the 10th war zone of the [***] team and cut off the Soviet aid channels of the Dingyuan battalion on the Suiyuan side. As long as the way of [***] reinforcement is stifled, it will be more effective than sending more than ten divisions.

On January 27, 1938, the 2nd Division, the 8th Division and the 12th Division under the command of the Continental Army, before all the field heavy artillery units and chariot troops entered the area of attack, they could not wait to implement the order of Kenkichi Ueda, the commander of the Kwantung Army, and began to send the first division of China's 10th Theater in Chaoyang. Attack. .

Although the wind and snow have decreased at this moment, and the temperature has slightly risen to a minimum of about minus 34 degrees, for ordinary people, this temperature is still unbearable, especially if the temperature is below minus 20 degrees, the oil that the rifle relies on to maintain lubrication will condense. If the temperature continues to fall below minus 30 degrees Then the engine oil will freeze. Before the anti-freeze low-temperature engine oil is invented, the only effective and simple way is to roast the shooting part of the weapon with fire.

Dai Peng, the commander of the guarding first division, is the head of the main regiment of the Hu Ben Division. He was transferred as the commander of the guarding first division. Although his position has been promoted, once the guard division is transferred to a youth army, he can justly become a real major general. However, for graduating from the Army School in the United States, he has always dreamed of commanding. For Dai Peng of the mechanized troops, this is a nightmare compared with the weather.

After Dai Peng, who had just taken over as the commander of the first division of the Chaoyang garrison division, inspected his overall defense area, he was surprised to find that there was also a jackal light tank with a total of eight companies in Chaoyang City? Is there another large twelve-wheeled tank trailer? The trailer was covered with thick canvas, and he, the guard commander, wanted to find out whether he had been stopped?
