During the War of Resistance Against Japan: After being scattered at Cangyunling, he brought back a

The entry of the Kwantung Army into the pass was indeed a foregone conclusion, but no one expected it to happen at this critical juncture.

After all, the Battle of Taiyuan was still ongoing.

"Yoshijiro Umezu can't wait any longer!"

After a moment of contemplation, the committee member exhaled sharply.

Clearly, in their minds, even if the Kwantung Army entered the pass, the outcome would definitely be decided in the Battle of Taiyuan, or Taiyuan would be captured by the 29th Division of the Allied Forces.

Or it could mean that the 29th Allied Forces were defeated and withdrew from the Second World War zone.

But to my surprise, Yoshijiro Umezu doesn't play by the rules at all!

"Committee!"

"You said the New Third Army had only just entered the pass, and the Kwantung Army was already..."

After a pause, Director Dai frowned and said.

For some reason, he now associates many things with the New Third Army.

"Xie Jinyuan is a good person!"

The chairman waved his hand to interrupt.

If Xie Jinyuan had problems, the Taiyuan Campaign would not have been possible.

After all, there were at least eight or ten thousand Japanese soldiers who died at the hands of Xie Jinyuan!

"Committee!"

"That's not the issue!"

"Chairman! Don't you think there's a possibility?"

"Was it after the new three armies entered the pass that the Kwantung Army chose to enter the pass?" After a moment of contemplation, Director Dai quickly asked.

After all, they had learned before that the New Third Army seemed to have fought several major battles in the Kwantung region.

“No way!”

"The new three armies are quite strong!"

“But that’s 700,000 Kwantung Army soldiers!” The chief of staff shook his head and said.

The New Third Army was quite strong, but many signs indicated that although it had done some things in the Kwantung region, it had not achieved the desired results.

There were also many casualties.

The fact that they entered the pass one after the other can only be explained by one reason.

That was a coincidence, or perhaps Yoshijiro Umezu had another plan.

It was simply a matter of thoroughly eliminating the Mountain City Army and even the New Third Army within the pass.

"Chairman! But..."

"okay!"

"Immediately send the order to Xue Yue!"

"The First Army Group is fully prepared for war!"

"To deal with the southward advance of the Kwantung Army!" the committee leader interrupted, waving his hand.

The primary concern now is dealing with the 700,000-strong Kwantung Army marching south.

"Yes, Chairman!"

Director Dai spoke quickly.

Provisional Supreme Command of the Kwantung Army.

"General Umezu!"

"Colonel Okada's advance troops have arrived in the Fengtian area!"

"A large-scale investigation has been carried out in the Fengtian area in a short period of time!"

"No Chinese armed forces were detected!"

Inside the command post, Umejin's deputy quickly stepped forward.

Seemingly noticing that General Umezu was deep in thought, the deputy continued, "General!"

"According to the telegrams we received, the New Third Army displayed a force of about 30,000 men during the Battle of Taiyuan!"

"They should all have already cleared customs!"

Three days ago, the Battle of Taiyuan began, and the armed forces in the Fengtian area quickly entered the pass!

They took all the equipment and weapons, including their strongest firepower unit.

"It shouldn't be!"

Umezu frowned and muttered to himself.

We've captured the Fengtian region, and we're just going to let it go like this?

You should know there's also the Fengtian Arsenal!

After all, his plan was to gather an army of 600,000 and sweep across the land.

To encircle and annihilate the entire Fengtian region.

Even after forcing them back into the interior, the new Chinese army destroyed the first line of defense set up by the Chinese mountain city at Shanhaiguan in one fell swoop.

"General Umezu!"

"As far as I know, the new Third Army of China was composed of Eighth Route Army soldiers, and in this battle, General Murakami is practically destroying the entire Taiyuan!"

"It is only right that all three branches of the armed forces return to reinforce!"

The deputy paused for a moment before speaking.

"Ok!"

"General! Should we still send a large army to the Fengtian region now?"

The deputy continued.

"No need!"

"By bypassing the Fengtian region, we will enter the pass completely!"

After a moment of contemplation, Umezu waved his hand to interrupt.

The Fengtian region is now empty, so there's no need to make a fuss about it anymore.

As for thoroughly investigating the entire Liaoning province, firstly, there isn't enough time.

The second one is completely unnecessary.

Thirdly, he was being too cautious. After all, judging from the battle situation in the Fengtian area, the armed forces of the new Chinese army were only so large.

"Hai!"

The deputy bowed deeply.

……

The New Third Army Marine Corps.

At this moment, all the commanders in the Marine Corps were lined up neatly.

At the forefront were the commanders-in-chief of the army groups, followed by the chiefs of staff of the respective army groups.

Yang Liansheng, Zhou Weiguo, Ding Wei, Han Zheng, Chu Yunfei, Wang Chengzhu and other familiar faces, the rest are new faces.

"Commander-in-Chief!"

"Telegram received!"

"Umezu has already mobilized 600,000 troops and is preparing to march south!"

"The vanguard of their troops is already about to leave Liaoning Province!"

Duan Peng quickly walked to the front and spoke.

"Six hundred thousand?"

"Commander-in-Chief!"

"Meijin is really bold!" Yang Liansheng couldn't help but frown.

The Japanese forces in the entire Kanto region numbered only about 700,000. Now, 600,000 have been transferred into the Central Plains, meaning that only about 100,000 Japanese remain in Kanto.

"Commander-in-Chief!"

"Now is a good opportunity!"

Zhou Weiguo suddenly stood up and spoke.
