1932: Playing with the Japanese Communist Party with a doll

Liu Heiqi was an old bandit, very cunning, and his men were all a bunch of ragtag bandits. After receiving the news, he only tried to test the waters, moving slowly along the Huangqi Sea coast on the right flank, and refused to charge forward.

But the 66th Division, the core of the 33rd Army, was not like that. They were equipped with the best weapons produced by the Taiyuan Arsenal or imported, and their headquarters were in Datong. They had long hated the Fujiwara puppet army stationed in Ulanqab and coveting Datong.

So, after receiving Sun Dianying's message, the 66th Division on the left wing excitedly accelerated its march, and then ran into Xu Shiyou's Cavalry Division, which had been forced to withdraw from the military exercise in the first two days and was planning to encircle them with anger and nowhere to vent.

No matter how cunning Yan Laoxi is or how many precautions he takes, he cannot resist the people under him who want to cheat him or the fools who act rashly.

This is the situation of Fu Zuoyi on the western front and Yan Xishan on the central front. As for Song Zheyuan's 29th Army?

As soon as they arrived in Zhangbei, they received news of the disastrous defeat on the front line. The general, who had just negotiated with Fujiwara no Kanezane, ordered his troops to turn around and retreat to Zhangjiakou as quickly as possible without saying a word.

The adjutant asked cautiously:

"Commander, what are we doing?"

"It's bullshit!"

Song Zheyuan turned the horse's head and pinched its belly:

"Fu Yisheng and Yan Laoxi are seeking death themselves. Are they going to let our entire army be buried with them? We just reached a cooperation agreement with His Majesty Fujiwara. We must keep our word!"

MN

If you are a man of your word, then why did you go all this way?

This adjutant, who had once met Fujiwara no Kanezane with Song Zheyuan near Zhangjiakou, had no idea that the news of the "disastrous defeat on the front line" that his superiors had received came directly from that young man and was transmitted directly to the 29th Army's military radio:

"General Song, you don't want to..."

So, cut off the 129th Division's retreat?

Cut off the ass!

Fu Zuoyi and Yan Laoxi, I'm sorry!

This is the credit of being a human being!

This is the way of dealing with the world!

This is a necessary sacrifice!

562 You guys are so lame!

Several battles that took place almost simultaneously in the grassland area, such as the "Battle of Ulanqab", the "Battle of Daqingshan" and the "Battle of Huangqihai", shocked the whole of China.

No one expected that after the talks between Li Desheng and Fujiwara no Kanezane broke down, the two sides immediately started fighting;

What was even more unexpected was that both sides ended up in a "lose-lose" situation, with each side suffering "heavy losses";

What was even more unexpected was that the two armies, having just experienced a great battle, immediately plunged into a new battle without even catching their breath, and actually each of them violently beat up the invading Shanxi-Suiyuan Army:

The 72nd Division of Fu Zuoyi's 35th Army and the 1st Cavalry Brigade were completely wiped out. The division commander Chen Changjie and the brigade commander Sun Lanfeng were defeated and captured. The former was slightly better off, while the latter almost had half his arm grazed off by a machine gun bullet.

The 66th Division of Yan Xishan's 33rd Army was completely wiped out, and the division commander Sun Chu was killed in battle. Liu Hei's seven troops disintegrated into bandits again and fled into Hebei to cause chaos. Sun Dianying's 41st Army lost more than half of its men, and the "Eastern Tomb Robber" died alas. The army, which already had few people left, was now in even worse trouble.

Song Zheyuan's 29th Army...

what?

You said our 29th Army was also involved in this matter?

What nonsense!

Don't slander Qian. I'm telling you, our 29th Army is firmly defending Zhangjiakou, and not a single soldier has left the barracks!

Don't believe everything you hear and mess around with Mao, Xi, and Xi all the time. This way, you won't be able to succeed Deng or Jiang!

You should be responsible when you speak, you are not the people!

boom!

Things like "the Red Army, which was clearly in the west, ran to the Huangqihai in the east, and the 129th Division, which was clearly in the east, ran to the Daqingshan in the west" were temporarily ignored;

In short, after these battles were fought and the results were announced nationwide, everyone had a very clear and relatively unified understanding of the combat effectiveness of the existing major armed forces in the north:

The 129th Division of the Five-Star Eastern Republic Army~or abbreviated>CCP Northward Anti-Japanese Corps>Yan Xishan's Shanxi Army>Fu Zuoyi's Suiyuan Army>Zhang Xueliang's Northeast Army.

This is not only the view of China, but also the view of Japan.

Especially those "Japanese observers" who personally observed the overall operation of several "battles"

They knew, of course, that the so-called "Battle of Ulanqab" was actually a military exercise. But after the results came out, far from feeling discontent or doubt, they were actually more impressed by His Highness Prince Hachimangu Kanezane and secretly felt uneasy.

Fortunately, this is just a military exercise. Otherwise, if a war really breaks out with this intensity and style, our Japanese arms and legs will not be able to withstand such heavy losses and astonishing consumption.

All Japanese who had seen how the 129th Division trained and fought, and how Fujiwara no Kanezane spared no expense in arming them, had to admit that this army was powerful, and commented that it was "no weaker than a Type A division."

It is really a terrifying thing to be able to basically tie with such a powerful army in a military exercise that is infinitely close to actual combat and has a variety of styles.

You know, the total number of the 129th Division is definitely less than the total number of the Chinese Communist Red Army. This time, Li Desheng only brought a small number of people with him. Who can afford to fight like this?

what?

Everything will be fine as long as the Imperial Japanese Army arrives?

Haha, how many Japanese soldiers and junior officers do you think were mixed up in the 129th Division?

go?

Leaving aside the likes of Kuribayashi Tadamichi, even the Empire's rising star, "Baron West," is directly participating in the battle this time!

The results of it?

You lose what you deserve!

Some knowledgeable and well-informed Japanese had to admit that if the Japanese army personally participated in the war, its tactics were too rigid, its firepower was too backward, and it was inferior to the enemy in fighting will, it would probably suffer an even greater defeat.

When they thought about the Chinese Communist Party leading such a Red Army, secretly supporting President Field, and confronting Japan according to the method described in "On Protracted War", many Japanese people trembled in their souls and became more determined in their "pacifist" stance.

At the very least, if one day they are forced to go south to attack China, it would be safer to first defeat the Kuomintang and local warlords, and then figure out how to deal with the Communist Party of China.

Of course, the most resolute thing is to always follow Hachimangu's position.

Regarding his orders, those who understand them must be carried out, and those who do not understand them must be carried out even more!

Who knows what ingenious plans Prince Kanezane is hatching, and how far into the future he foresees?

If you don’t understand, it just means you are not good enough!

loyalty!

Someone who had caused the temperature in Northeast China to rise sharply and was bored after the war stared at Chen Changjie, who had been captured and brought to him, with great interest, his eyes full of smiles:

"Hold on firmly, there will be a way?

To be honest, no one, whether it was Fujiwara no Kanezane or his deputy, had expected that Fu Zuoyi, who had always been resolute in his anti-Japanese stance and had even written articles insulting Fujiwara no Kanezane, would run away so without hesitation and so fast as lightning.

Because Fu Zuoyi directly abandoned Chen Changjie and Sun Lanfeng, the encircling and pursuing troops were unable to gain much ground.

This is the strength of a cavalry brigade and an entire division!

Although the "divisions" and "brigades" of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army were much smaller than the later Central Army, it still had about 8,000 people!

Just throw it away?

Wow, he is indeed a "wise general"!

Otherwise, how could he have been so wise and decisive?

Otherwise, Fu's troops might really be wiped out.

“Hmm

The unlucky Chen Changjie was knocked unconscious by a stray horse when he was trying to gather his troops. He was then dragged out from the pile of dead bodies by the soldiers of the 129th Division and dragged here. He was still dazed and it took him a long time to react.

“Who…who are you?

"Old comrade, how do you do intelligence work? How come you don't even recognize me when you come to arrest me this time?

"You...you are Fujiwara Kanezane?!"

"What else? Baka, baka.

MN

Chen Changjie tried to stand up, but was pushed back down by the soldiers and continued to kneel. Fujiwara Kanezane waved his hand:

"Hey, where have you forgotten the policy of treating prisoners well? Let him go."

Several soldiers glanced at the black and white masked maid standing silently, then confidently untied Chen Changjie. As soon as Chen Changjie stood up, he suddenly leaped forward without warning and punched Fujiwara Kanezane, who was within arm's reach!

Of course, Fujiwara Kanezane could not feel angry or afraid. He was speechless as he watched his hand being grabbed and twisted at the joints by the agent in an instant.

This person is just like what is recorded in history: "rough and stubborn, with a strong character, stubborn and inflexible"...

Fujiwara no Kanematsu poked Chen Changjie's chest with his whip, his attitude unchanged. He didn't take the offensive effect of the assassination far more seriously. "Well, I heard that you are not afraid of authority, strict in military discipline, honest and upright, and not greedy for money. The soldiers respect, obey, and fear you..."

NN

Although he felt like his wrist was about to be twisted off, and although he was shocked by the strength of the woman in front of him, Chen Changjie, who was in excruciating pain, couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart after hearing these words, and then turned into a broken defense in the next moment:

But, you've tried so hard, why do I feel like your 72nd Division is still not that good? As soon as we charged, you all ran away. It's much easier to fight than Li Desheng's Red Army..."

The soldiers next to him nodded unconsciously.

This is not just a show of support - these soldiers don't have the ideological awareness and emotional intelligence to do so - but they really think so.

Most of them were new recruits. During the "Rehe Chicken Dinner Limited Time Event" or the "Northeast Bandit Suppression Daily Mission," most of them were participating in training or acting as atmosphere supporters, and had never experienced any serious war.

This time, during the military exercise with the Red Army, they thought they were weak - how could the first opponent they encountered right after their debut be so good at fighting, fearless and full of strategies, making everyone almost depressed;

Although it is a military exercise, this kind of military exercise is no different from actual combat. Fighting like this, how can we be worthy of His Majesty's kindness, worthy of the people who support us, and worthy of our predecessors who taught us!

Shame on you!

Shame on you!

As a result, as soon as they fought against the 72nd Division, everyone's self-confidence was restored and even inflated a little:

It turns out there are even better dishes.

MN

After a few seconds of silence, Chen Changjie roared in grief and anger:

"A defeated general! No need to say more! Kill or chop me up! It's all up to you! Why insult me?

"Ah... - a four-character idiom, are you going to take the postgraduate entrance examination?

Fujiwara Kanezane took two steps back in disgust to avoid the spitting.

"Alright, alright, why are you so angry? You're puffing up like a pufferfish. I'm not going to eat you..."

MN

Chen Changjie felt a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat. He felt like he couldn't be angry, nor could he be calm. He could only stiffen his neck and look ready to die.

"Kill me if you want! If I even frown, I'll be a bitch! Fuck you! Fuck your grandmother! In my next life, I'll beat you Japanese dogs! And you traitorous dogs!"

He was very powerful and passionate, but it looked a little funny that he was being subdued by a woman with one hand and half-kneeling on the ground.

Seeing that this guy couldn't communicate, Fujiwara Kanezane curled his lips and looked at another captured general, Sun Lanfeng of the Cavalry Brigade. Seeing that the guy had one arm hanging but his eyes were still like blazing fire, he sighed again.

This guy is similar to Chen Changjie. When local officials give him gifts, he kicks them out. "I'm fighting on the front lines, and you're enjoying yourself in the back? You still have money to give me? Get lost!"

Damn it, you all have such stubborn tempers. If it weren't for your historical contributions to the anti-Japanese war, you would all have been forced to drink manure.

However, the method to deal with people like Chen Changjie and Sun Lanfeng, who have strong and stubborn personalities, hot tempers, loyalty and integrity, and one of them is even loyal to Fu Zuoyi, is simple.

Fujiwara no Kanezane ordered his men to release Chen and Sun, and asked with a smile:

"I know you two. I heard you both come from poor backgrounds.

Chen Changjie's father died young and his mother worked as a farmer. If it weren't for the financial support from his fellow villagers, he would have almost never been able to go to school.

Not to mention Sun Lanfeng - his family was a tenant farmer, and he was forced to flee his hometown for beating a landlord.

After witnessing the agent's force, the two men didn't continue to act recklessly this time, but they were still rude:

"Yes! We peasants wouldn't dare to associate with a noble like you!

"Out of reach?"

Fujiwara no Kanezane laughed, patted the soldier next to him on the shoulder, and asked:

"Come on! Tell them where you came from! You...you...you...tell them too!!"
