Matsubara Masako pointed to the Taibai Mountain area, and then said: "Most of the villages there are empty. In such a large area, although there were not many mountain residents originally living there, there were still thousands of people. But thousands of people have simply disappeared from these areas."
"Could it be that we wiped out all these villages during our raids?" a Japanese military staff officer said. It's not like they have done this kind of thing before. After all, they can kill hundreds of thousands of people in the huge city of Nanjing. , let alone thousands of mountain people?
But Matsubara Masako shook his head very firmly and said: "It's impossible. I checked the relevant information. We have not sent large-scale troops to the depths of Taibai Mountain to carry out sweeps, or even small-scale troops, because the mountain roads inside are very difficult." It was too difficult to walk without entering.
It can be said that these thousands of mountain people were basically not affected by the war. In addition, they have lived on that land for generations, and the concept of resettlement has been engraved in their bones. There is no reason for them to suddenly move away from there. "
"Then you mean that they were all gathered together by the Eighth Route Army and guerrillas?" the Japanese staff officer asked.
Matsubara Masako said: "It is very possible. I suspect that deep in the Taibai Mountain, there may be a walled city, a very hidden military fortress. And that army exists in that military fortress. I suggest, We will send out a reconnaissance plane as soon as possible to investigate there, maybe we can find something."
As a result, as soon as her proposal was put forward, it was immediately opposed by the Japanese officers in the room.
"We have a limited number of reconnaissance planes. In an area as big as Mount Taibai, how many photos do our reconnaissance planes need to send to cover the entire area?" asked a Japanese military staff officer.
"Furthermore, these ideas of Lieutenant Colonel Matsubara are just speculations in the final analysis. There is not too strong evidence." The Japanese staff officer continued.
"Why can you find a hundred reasons not to go to Taibai Mountain to look for traces of the enemy, but you are unwilling to believe my speculation based on the situation that has been discovered? What are you running from?" Matsubara Masako walked directly to the Japanese soldier In front of the staff officer, he asked in a low voice.
With sharp eyes, she completely ignored the other party¡¯s higher military rank than her and directly questioned the staff officer.
The staff officer's eyes averted slightly, and he did not dare to look at this woman again.
Yoshio Shinozuka saw all this in his eyes, and the corner of his mouth raised slightly: "In that case, I think it is better to send a reconnaissance plane to conduct a large-scale reconnaissance of the Taibai Mountain area. At the same time, during the sweep, We must pay attention to the Taibai Mountain area and the Wutai Mountain area at the same time, and carry out raids at the same time. Once we find traces of the enemy, we will immediately concentrate our forces and annihilate them."
Nakajima Kongo, the commander of the Japanese 16th Division who had been silent, cleared his throat and said: "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, I think we should focus on dealing with the enemies in Mount Wutai first. After all, regarding this area, We have more intelligence in our hands, and we are very clear that there are large enemy forces inside.
After the battle in the Wutai Mountain area is resolved, it will not be too late to concentrate our forces to attack Taibai Mountain. What do you think of my suggestion? "
When he spoke, he was very soft and his voice was not loud, but it was very penetrating, making everyone in the command room subconsciously turn their ears to listen to what he said.
"Nakajima-kun, is this your suggestion? If so, the enemies who annihilated one of our brigade before may have to make preparations in advance." Shinozuka Yoshio said.
Nakajima Konga smiled faintly and said: "During the raid last year, as far as I know, the main battlefield was in the Mount Wutai area. If they were not very familiar with the Mount Wutai area, they would not have chosen to set up an ambush there. Bar."
"That makes sense. If that's the case, then we can indeed concentrate our superior forces on Wutai Mountain first." Shinozuka Yoshio said.
Hearing this, Matsubara Masako became a little anxious. She hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Mymy suggestion is to concentrate the troops first in the Wutai Mountain area, but I still want to invite reconnaissance planes to carry out surveillance on Taibai Mountain." Conduct reconnaissance in the area. There are tens of thousands of enemies in that group. If they want to operate in the Taibai Mountain area, they will definitely leave many traces of their activities. Our reconnaissance planes will definitely be able to find some clues."
She firmly believed in her judgment. In fact, in addition to the basis she just mentioned, some things also indirectly proved that the enemy that caused them great losses was among the mountains of Taibai Mountain.
Seeing SongyuanThe wife insisted, and Yoshio Shinozuka pondered for a moment, and then said: "Okay, then send a reconnaissance plane to assist Lieutenant Colonel Matsubara in the investigation. But let me put it up front, the use of reconnaissance planes can only be used for these few days. After the mopping up troops officially set off, these reconnaissance planes will be used to search for enemies in the Wutai Mountain area."
Matsubara Masako originally wanted to fight for it again, but when he saw that the entire command was staring at him, he suddenly realized that the commander-in-chief was actually very protective of him.
For these Japanese commanders, instead of taking their troops to fight in the Taibai Mountain area where they are not sure whether there are enemies, it is better to fight in the Wutai Mountain area. Therefore, the suggestion put forward by Masako Matsubara is actually not in the interests of these soldiers.
It is also about annihilating enemy troops. Of course, we are attacking enemies who already know where they are and what their strength is.
As for the enemies in Taibai Mountain, regardless of whether they exist or not, even if they really exist, these Japanese troops are not afraid.
¡°After all, this time, they are two reorganized divisions, plus a lot of puppet troops. They are definitely not comparable to the scale of the last raid.
¡°And this is only the raids in the Wutai Mountains and Taibai Mountains. Similar raids are being carried out everywhere in the occupied areas as large as Shanxi, Hebei and Shandong.
They didn¡¯t believe that the enemy could attack a brigade and dare to attack two of their divisions.
"Okay, I understand, thank you Commander-in-Chief." Matsubara Masako bowed to Shinozuka Yoshio.
Yoshio Shinozuka nodded, then cleared his throat and said: "The next step is the battle plan. Those who are not participating in this battle can go out and take a rest first."
When the people in the headquarters heard this, some walked out of their own accord, including members of the Special High School Course represented by Masako Matsubara.
Sakurai Jiro, who had been listening to the conversation of these people in the corner, could only walk out of the headquarters at this time. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
