Chapter 65: Angry Yanagawa (new book please watch)
At this time, not only the big guys in Nanjing City were shocked, but also the leaders of the Japanese Expeditionary Force in Shanghai.
When the intelligence department translated the telegram clearly sent by Li Guoyao's department and reported it to various frontline headquarters, everyone including Matsui Iwane, Fushimi Miya Toshihiko and Yanagawa Heisuke were stunned.
These days they have been looking for the whereabouts of Tanabe Moritake, but there has been no definite news to prove whether Tanabe Moritake is dead or alive. Now there is finally news that Tanabe Moritake is indeed dead.
Knowing this result, Matsui Iwane, Yanagawa Heisuke and others were somewhat relieved. Compared to being captured, they preferred that Tanabe Moritake end his life in a military way, rather than becoming the second idle No. 1.
Leisure is a name. This name is definitely a taboo in the Japanese military community. Whenever the name is, the Japanese military boss will feel shame.
Like Tanabe Moritake who disappeared before, Noboru was also an officer who disappeared during the war against China. His position was the major captain of the 2nd Battalion of the 7th Infantry Regiment.
At 11 o'clock in the middle of the night on January 28, 1932, more than 1,000 Japanese Marines, under the cover of more than 20 tanks, divided into three groups to attack the Chinese garrison in Zhabei. The "January 28" Songhu Anti-Japanese War broke out in full force.
As the war continued to expand, both the Chinese and Japanese armies were gradually sending more troops to Shanghai. Among them was the then major captain of the 2nd Battalion of the 7th Infantry Regiment of the 6th Brigade.
Kazuo Noboru was born in Saga Prefecture, Japan on December 8, 1887. He was the eldest son of District Court Clerk Masahiro Kazuo. He studied in the prefectural high school, Hiroshima Army Regional Infant School, and Central Infant School, and was deeply influenced by Japanese militarism. Influence.
Since graduating from the military academy, he has been serving in the grassroots army. During this period, he was also sent to China to garrison and learned a lot about China's national conditions. Although he has rich experience in leading troops, when it comes to combat, he still has zero experience.
However, when he received the order to go to Shanghai to participate in the war, he was already ready to work hard to kill the enemy and make contributions. He did not expect that his expectations would be completely contrary to the actual situation.
On February 20, the commander of the 9th Division, Kenkichi Ueda, launched an attack on the Chinese garrison positions at Jiangwan and Miaohang. The 2nd Battalion of the 7th Infantry Regiment, which was promoted to command, was ordered to join the battle and was under the command of the 6th Infantry Brigade. Under the direct command of the commander of the regiment and brigade, Hiroshi Maehara, his mission was to capture Yanjiaqiao.
Subsequently, the Japanese army launched a fierce attack on the Chinese defenders' positions, and the 2nd Battalion under the command of Xingsheng successively broke through the forward defense line of the defenders' 61st Division. At about 9 o'clock in the evening that day, Zuo Zuosheng commanded the machine gun squadron to advance to a distance of about 300 meters from Yanjiaqiao. There, the troops encountered stubborn resistance from the 1st Regiment of the 121st Brigade of the 61st Division of the defenders. Not only were they unable to continue to make progress, but they were quickly surrounded by the commander of the defenders, Liang Shiji, and became a lone army.
Under this circumstance, I lost contact with the brigade and regiment headquarters. Brigade commander Maehara Hiroshiyuki once ordered the 35th Infantry Regiment to send troops to rescue the siege, but without success. With the loss of foreign aid and supplies, the machine gun squadron commanded by Idle Sheng fell into a hard fight, but still persisted for 2 days and 2 nights.
During this period, the troops suffered heavy casualties, and their adjutant, Lieutenant Suzuki, was also shot dead by the Chinese army.
The two sides then engaged in a brutal hand-to-hand battle. During the battle, Idle Sheng's saber broke and his pistol jammed. He was first shot in the chest and wounded, and then hit by shrapnel from a grenade and fell to the ground and fell into a coma. He was then killed by the captain of the 3rd Battalion. Chen Baxiong discovered and captured him. In this way, the first and only major captain captured by a belligerent country appeared in the history of the Japanese army.
It was a great shame and humiliation for the Japanese army to become a prisoner of the Chinese army. At that time, the Japanese army's top brass did not know the actual combat situation of the 2nd Battalion. It was not until the acting battalion captain, Captain Oyama, broke out with the remaining troops that they learned some incomplete information.
Based on Oyama¡¯s report, brigade commander Maehara Hiroshiyuki judged that Idle Noboru had been killed in action, so he transferred 23 soldiers from the 7th Infantry Squadron to form a death squad. Led by Kobayashi¡¯s Special Agent Cao, they went to the positions near Yanjiaqiao to search for Idle¡¯s body.
Kobayashi and his party ventured into the positions that had been recaptured by the Chinese army. After searching, the death squad found the body of Lieutenant Suzuki who had been hit by dozens of bullets in a bomb crater. However, the body of Major Idle was never found. Kobayashi had no choice but to return. The brigade headquarters resumed its operations.
When things have developed to this point, the Japanese army still believes that Anxiety Sheng has been killed, but they have not been able to find his body for the time being.
In order to boost morale, the Japanese military propaganda department shot three films in early March to promote the Japanese soldiers who "sacrificed heroically" in the battle in Shanghai.One of the military documentaries is "The Idle Major". However, at this time, Idle Sheng was receiving treatment at the Chinese Army Field Hospital in Zhenru.
The Japanese military was shocked when they learned that Kong Sheng was not killed in action, but was still alive as a prisoner of war in the Chinese army.
Although the top brass of the Japanese military also thought this was a great shame and humiliation, the Japanese Consulate in Shanghai still sent a representative to discuss the prisoner exchange with China. The most important one is to demand the release of Army Infantry Major Qingsheng.
Later, after consultations between representatives of China and Japan, I was finally relieved of my status as a "prisoner of war" and returned to the Japanese-occupied areas.
?? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the blue was released by the Chinese military, but he was not immediately free. When the Japanese consulate sent someone to pick up Idle Sheng from the Chinese representative, he was temporarily "placed" in the consulate.
On the 12th day after his release, which was also the "April 7th" memorial day for Lin Dabal, captain of the 7th Infantry Regiment, Xiangsheng committed suicide by caesarean section in front of Lin Dabal's spiritual shrine in Dabaishu. He was 45 years old.
I think I was just a small army major at the time. His capture caused shock in the Japanese military circles, but Tanabe Moritake was the chief of staff of the major general. Once his identity is confirmed by the Chinese army, the consequences can be Call it catastrophic.
Fortunately, the Chinese army now admits that it has killed Tanabe Moritake. Although it is still embarrassing to be killed, being captured is relatively easy to explain.
Why do you say that? Because being shot to death, they can mold Tanabe Moritake into a real hero, fighting bravely, preferring death to surrender, etc. At worst, they can also make his deeds into a movie. In short, there are a hundred ways to weaken this The negative impact brought about can even be used to inspire the fighting will of frontline soldiers by using the death of Tanabe Moritake.
But if he is captured, it will not be easy to operate. Unlike the West, Japan, like the Chinese, considers captured soldiers to be an absolute disgrace.
However, after being thankful, Matsui Iwane, Yanagawa Heisuke and others were overwhelmed by huge anger!
With this record of defeating hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops on the front line in Shanghai, he could completely get rid of the treatment of sitting on the bench and return to the pinnacle of power.
After all, his performance on the Songhu front line can be said to have completely destroyed Matsui Iwane. Matsui fought on the Shanghai front line for three months but failed to break through the Chinese army's defense, but Yanagawa Heisuke did it in less than a week. The Chinese army voluntarily abandoned Shanghai, and this achievement can be said to be clear at a glance.
However, as Tanabe Moritake was killed, all the credit was in vain. How could he not be angry?
In the headquarters, the commander of the 10th Army, Heisuke Yanagawa, was so angry that he swept all the furnishings on the table to the ground, and even pulled out his command knife and split the huge terrain sand table in half.
Angry He didn't know what words to use to describe his mood at this moment except anger!
"Baga, immediately send a report to the 18th Division, ordering them to suspend the attack on Huzhou, mobilize all troops to deal with the remnants of the hateful 67th Army, find them at all costs, and annihilate them." Yanagawa Heisuke said through gritted teeth. .
"Hai!"
"Send a report to the Special High-Tech and Corps search teams and ask them to speed up and rush to the front line of Huzhou to coordinate with the 18th Division Regiment Headquarters!"
"Hai!"
Yanagawa Heisuke's only idea now is to completely wipe the hateful Chinese remnants from the earth, and then cut off the head of the opponent's commander to pay homage to the souls of the Imperial Japanese Army. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
