    After making the decision, the Japanese military leaders took quick action!

    Early the next morning, Japan's official mouthpiece announced a piece of bad news to the Japanese people who had just woken up and started their busy day - His Excellency Washizu Jinhei, Lieutenant General of the Imperial Japanese Army and Commander of the 21st Division, announced on July 2  The jade was broken into pieces in Xuzhou City, the battlefield. At the same time, more than a thousand imperial warriors were also broken into pieces.

    Of course, these more than 1,000 casualties are "corrected" data by the Japanese government, which is just to deceive the Japanese people. Neither China nor the United States or the United Kingdom believe it.

    "After all, a lieutenant general's division commander was killed. How could the casualties of ordinary soldiers be only more than a thousand people? Could it be said that the army lieutenant general only had more than a thousand people to command?

    It is possible, but the news said that Lieutenant General Washizu Seppei was killed in his headquarters, which is a bit intriguing.

    Immediately afterwards, Japan's major media rushed to report Washizu's life story and disclosed more details.

    Of course, in Japanese media reports, the Chinese army was described as poisonous snakes without the spirit of Bushido, who were only good at escaping and sneak attacks. This time they took advantage of the absence of the main force of the imperial army to sneak attack Xuzhou City, which ultimately led to the death of Washijin  Your Excellency Qian Ping died in battle.

    The executioner Li Guoyao was even dubbed by Japan as "the soldier with the least bushido spirit in the world". Various Japanese media called on all Japanese troops on the front line to annihilate Li Guoyao's troops and avenge the tragic death of the imperial warriors.  avenge.

    More importantly, in the reports of these media newspapers in Japan, the heroicity described by the leader of the Jinjin, at the same time, was a bit sad, a bit like Zhang Zizhong's posture after the pumpkin shop died.

    ??Under the vigorous reports in the Japanese media, the Japanese people quickly regarded Washizu Jinpei as an idol and hero, worshiped by thousands of families.

    Of course, the cunning and treachery of the Chinese have aroused great disgust and anger among the Japanese people. The calls for severe punishment of the murderers have become louder and louder. Large-scale demonstrations have broken out in Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya and other places.

    The Japanese people held high the portrait of Emperor Hirohito and the posthumous photo of Washitsu Jinhei, and chanted slogans with great momentum.

    Under this circumstance, the Japanese government took the initiative and held a press conference to report the course of the battle and the losses of the Japanese army.  High-profile admission of the Japanese defeat in Lunan, and the news that Washijin Seppei and others died in the battle.

    But these are not the main point. The Japanese people already know about this matter, and this is not what they want to hear.

    Therefore, after acknowledging the authenticity of the matter, the government spokesperson read out the decision of the base camp, which was actually the final resolution of the Imperial Council!

    First of all, the government and the base camp decided to posthumously confer Lieutenant General Washizu Seppei as a general of the Imperial Army, and hold a state funeral after his body returns to the country.

    Secondly, in view of the fact that the Chi/Na army¡¯s sneak attacks without the Bushido spirit caused heavy losses to the Japanese Empire, the base camp decided to add five divisions and eight mixed brigades to the Chi/Na battlefield and conduct the third national war.  mobilization order.

    At the same time, the base camp instructed the North Branch/Na Dispatch Army Headquarters to immediately formulate a plan to eliminate the Shandong Branch/Na troops, and uproot the so-called Sulu Theater and Li Guoyao's headquarters within a two-month deadline to provide peace of mind to Jiujin Qianping and all those who died in the battle.  Japanese warriors seek revenge.

    Finally, the headquarters ordered the North Branch/That Front Headquarters to immediately replenish the 21st Division's organizational structure and ensure that the combat effectiveness of the 21st Division is not affected.

    With the Japanese government¡¯s tireless reporting, the focus of all the Japanese people instantly shifted from defeat to revenge. The Japanese troops on the front line were also affected by this, and their low morale turned into anger and unwillingness.

    I have to say that the Japanese government and the base camp are really good at this!

    Japan¡¯s jumping up and down has naturally attracted the attention of China and even countries around the world. After all, Japan is now a powerful country, especially in Asia. Japan¡¯s influence has even surpassed that of the United States, Britain and other countries.

    When the news spread back to China, it quickly caused an uproar in public opinion.

    Originally, the Nationalist Government had reported this matter in large-scale and detailed manner, and aroused public support. However, because the National Army's previous record was not very good, and it often lied about military information, the so-called great victory was often just a victory.  Dozens of Japanese soldiers were killed, so the public had mixed attitudes towards the Lunan victory. Many people doubted the authenticity of this victory.

    The most important thing is that the Japanese army also has its own tricks in this regard. Often the Chinese government just publicizes a victory, and the Japanese side publicly denies and clarifies.

    ?What is denied is of course the "good news" from China, and what is clarified is their losses and the "true" situation of the battle.

    Of course, sometimes it is China who is deliberately exaggerating its results, but sometimes it is the Japanese who are stubborn.

    This time is no exception. People thought that after the Nationalist Government reported it, the Japanese military would definitely deny it as soon as possible.

    But what no one expected was that although the Japanese army jumped out this time, they did not deny China's achievements as before. Instead, they openly admitted the losses in this battle and accused the Chinese army of not being gentle enough.  , making all Chinese people feel dumbfounded.

    Although in the Japanese army's report, the Chinese army was not as magnanimous as a gentleman. It launched a sneak attack. It also reported how heroic the old guy Shizujin Seppei was. Faced with dozens of times the siege of the Chinese army, he would rather stay with the city.  Life or death, in the end he died tragically and heroically at the gunpoint of the enemy.

    ??Even in order to highlight the bravery of Lieutenant General Washizu Shimei, the Japanese deliberately highlighted the tragic scene when he died in battle

    ¡°However, these are things that the Japanese people should be concerned about. What does it have to do with the Chinese?

    The more tragic your general dies on the battlefield, the more it shows that our army is fighting well and bravely, and the more it shows that our commander is capable.

    More importantly, with such an assist from the Japanese, the previous doubts in the hearts of the people suddenly disappeared.

    After all, even the Japanese have admitted that this great victory is of course true. For a time, the names of Yu Xuezhong and the Sulu Theater spread throughout the country and became a household name.

    Soon, with the full assistance of the Japanese, people in Chongqing, Kunming, Chengdu, Changsha and other places took to the streets to demonstrate, setting off a new round of anti-Japanese upsurge.

    While China and Japan were competing with each other in terms of public opinion over the war, Li Guoyao, the instigator of the war, seemed somewhat calm. He did not jump out to grab credit, nor did he accept interviews from field reporters sent by the Sulu War Zone. He even  Yu Du did not accept Yu Xuezhong's invitation to meet at the Sulu Theater Headquarters.

    After withdrawing from Xuzhou City, Li Guoyao returned to the Xiong'er Mountain Area with Chen Jianzhong and a small amount of loot.

    In the next two days, under the leadership of Li Guoyao, the Shandong Guerrilla Corps was counting casualties and results. At the same time, it was also collecting the bodies of the people in the villages that were brutally massacred and comforting the surviving people.

    On July 6, at 8 o'clock in the morning, all officers of the Shandong Guerrilla Corps and above, including group captains, held a combat summary meeting at the Wawashan base.

    Because of the victory, the base conference room was full of laughter, and everyone told each other some interesting things about the war.

    "Hahaha, you don't know, that little devil's lieutenant general really has some fucking backbone. I pointed a gun at him, and he refused to surrender. He even took a knife and was about to chop me, and then he was beaten  The gun was thrown down, but it was a bit bloody!" Zhang Shaolin said with emotion.

    "Not to mention, these little Japs are really tough. This time we attacked the Hanzhuang stronghold. Although there were only more than thirty Japanese soldiers who were stubborn, they refused to surrender, and in the end they were all killed!"

    "You bullshit, I think they are probably afraid of the retaliation of the Chinese. Think about what they have done in China. What will happen if they fall into the hands of the Chinese?"

    "This is the truth. Two days ago, our brigade captured four Japanese soldiers in the Battle of Wangzhuang, but they were intercepted by the people when they passed Liuzhuang. The angry people took the little Japanese soldiers from the hands of the troops.  The prisoners snatched them away, and then used hoes and kitchen knives to chop all the Japanese prisoners into meat paste. It was so miserable, they might as well have been beaten to death on the battlefield!"

    "Who says it's not"

    As he was talking, the sound of "tapping" footsteps came from outside the door, and at the same time, the guard's high-pitched announcement came: "The commander is here!"
