    Jinan, the headquarters of the Japanese occupation forces.

    There were only three people sitting in a conference room at Novo University. The one sitting at the top was Lieutenant General Odaka Kamezo, the commander of the Japanese Twelfth Army. Next to him was Major General Sakata, the new chief of staff of the Twelfth Army.  Sitting at the very outside of the conference room was Chutaro Shimizu, who was wearing a weird military uniform.

    "You two, everyone has seen the telegram sent by Heze. Tell us what you think!" Odaka Kamezo said seriously.

    As the chief of staff of the 12th Army, Major General Sakata had his own opinions on strategy and tactics, so he took the lead and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, a reinforced brigade of the Yamazaki Regiment was completely wiped out, and the commander died in the battle. This is very important to the army."  This is another huge blow to the ministry!¡±

    "Keep talking!" Ogao Turtle said.

    "I believe that the war in southwestern Shandong is closely related to the Shandong government. It is even a test by the support government to open another Sulu war zone. Once the other party gains a foothold in southwestern Shandong, it is likely to be the second one.  In the Sulu guerrilla war zone, the Corps Headquarters must strengthen its precautions."

    Odaka Kamezo did not comment, but turned to Chutaro Shimizu on the side and asked: "Shimizu-kun, tell me your opinion!"

    Chutaro Shimizu immediately said: "Teacher, I still have some questions about the origins of these troops/people. Regarding the chaos in southwestern Shandong, students have also carefully checked the relevant battle reports from the Legion Headquarters and found that this army does not seem to be simple."

    "Oh, what's not simple about it?"

    "Teacher, the chaos in southwestern Shandong occurred twenty days ago. From the initial assassination of the Imperial Association Army and pro-Japanese businessmen to the current ambush operation, it seems that there is not much relationship. But look carefully, this  It should be a series of conspiracies, and the enemy has complete tactical ideas and combat plans, which is far more difficult than we imagined!"

    Then Chutaro Shimizu continued: "What's more important is that many of the opponent's tactics are beyond ordinary field troops and have a bit of a special force. Therefore, I have doubts about the identity of this mysterious enemy force!"

    "Oh, if they are not special forces specially trained by the government, then who are they?" Odaka Kamezo asked.

    "Teacher, students are very doubtful whether this unit in southwestern Shandong is the special operations team under Li Guoyao?" Chutaro Shimizu said surprisingly.

    "Li Guoyao's subordinates, how is this possible? Haven't they already withdrawn to Xiong'er Mountain? How could they appear in southwest Shandong?" Wei Gao Guizang said with a hint of panic.

    In addition to Otaka Kamezo, Chief of Staff Sakata was also shocked!

    Li Guoyao's reputation is too great. Major General Sakata is deeply aware of how terrifying this Chinese general is. Not to mention a corps headquarters, even the front army headquarters and base camp, the mention of this name can make the scene silent for several times.  minute.

    Not only was this guy difficult to deal with, but more importantly, this Chinese general was ruthless enough. Whether it was taking no prisoners, stripping off the clothes of the dead bodies, or cutting off the heads of all the Japanese dead, all kinds of methods were used.  People are famous for their color changes.

    Now many soldiers of the 12th Army were frightened when they heard that they were going to fight Li Guoyao's troops. Not to mention the death rate was too high, and they might die without any intact bodies.

    "It shouldn't be under Li Guoyao's command. Firstly, they have just fought bloody battles with the imperial army in Zaozhuang and Jining for a month, and their combat effectiveness has not been restored. Secondly, Lord Qingshui's special forces attacked Weishan Island in a surprise attack and destroyed an important one of theirs.  base and eliminated a large number of troops, including a senior officer. Under such circumstances, Li Guoyao simply did not have the energy to divide his troops to attack southwest Shandong."

    However, Colonel Qingshui said calmly: "Teacher, Sir Sakata, according to the news from Heze, the mysterious force in southwest Shandong does not seem to have many troops. In fact, Li Guoyao's troops only need to dispatch a few hundred ordinary people."  Soldiers, plus one or two hundred special operations troops, are enough to disrupt the security of the entire southwestern Shandong!"

    "Then how likely do you think this battle is to be related to Li Guoyao's troops?"

    "More than 80%!"

    "Such a high probability?" Odaka Kamezo said in surprise.

    "This is the result obtained by the current students, but as to whether it is really what the students think, it remains to be further observed!" Colonel Shimizu said.

    Odaka Kamezo frowned and said to Major General Sakata: "Sakata-san, how is the situation in southeastern Shandong?"

    "Your Excellency, Commander, the situation in southeastern Shandong has been brought under control. With the emergency support of the Corps Headquarters, the main force of the 21st Division quickly moved north from Linyi to attack Yimeng Mountain.To the south of Yu Xuezhong's headquarters, the main force pressed forward from the north. After two weeks of bloody fighting, we finally repelled the counterattack of Yu Xuezhong's headquarters and ensured the safety of Yishui. However, we lost Yinan in this battle.  Ju County, Rizhao and Wulian were also harassed to varying degrees, and the losses were considerable!  "Major General Sakata replied in a deep voice.

    "If the imperial army mobilizes heavy troops to reinforce southwestern Shandong, how likely is it that Li Guoyao's and Yu Xuezhong's troops will launch another counterattack?" Odaka Kamezo asked again.

    "More than 80%!"

    "Why do you see it? Tell me your reasons!"

    "Your Excellency, Commander, after this period of analysis, we can almost confirm that the active attack of the Z/N army in Shandong should be related to the Battle of Kunlun Pass on the southern front. The Z/N government army was in order to prevent the troops from North and Central China from reinforcing Kunlun.  Pass the battlefield, that¡¯s why we take the initiative to attack. There is still a bloody battle on the Kunlun Pass battlefield. Once the corps headquarters makes a slight move, it will definitely be regarded as reinforcements for the southern front, and the possibility of stimulating the support/that person is very high!" Major General Sakata analyzed  .

    "Youxi, how is the situation on the Kunlun Pass battlefield? When will it end?" Odaka Kamezo asked again.

    Major General Bantian thought for a while, and then said: "The situation on the southern front is not good. The imperial army suffered heavy losses in the first phase of the battle. The Battle of Kunlun Pass was the second battle of the imperial army after Nankou, Pingxingguan, Xinkou, Linyi, and Taierzhuang.  A major defeat, the troops suffered heavy casualties. Among them, the commander of the 21st Brigade, Masao Nakamura, and his 21st Regiment participated in the battle. A total of 1,360 people were killed, 198 were killed, 469 were injured, and 16 were missing. The casualties and missing accounted for 1,360 people.  50% of the total number; a total of 860 members of the 42nd Regiment participated in the battle, 176 were killed, 271 were injured, and 21 were missing. Casualties and missing persons accounted for 54% of the total number."

    "Of course, these are statistics from the China Expeditionary Forces Headquarters. As you all know, there may be errors between this data and the real data. According to propaganda from the support side, the Imperial Army lost about 10,000 soldiers in this battle.  Although it¡¯s impossible to really have that many, it¡¯s also impossible to have only two thousand casualties.¡±

    Then Major General Sakata continued: "Under this situation, the 21st Army Corps has no choice but to continue to reinforce the front line. At present, the Guards Mixed Brigade has arrived at Qitang in the northeast of Nanning; the 18th Division has also assembled in the south of Nanning.  In addition, the 1st Squadron of the 64th Combat Flying Group and the 1st Squadron of the 31st Light Bombing Group transferred from the Kwantung Army also arrived at Nanning Airport, and the war on the southern front was about to begin."

    "Then what adjustments did the 21st Corps make to this strategy?" Odaka Kamezo asked again.

    Major General Sakata immediately said: "While the 21st Army was deploying additional troops to Nanning, the 5th Division made adjustments to the defense of the Batang area. In this area, it was unified under the command of the 9th Brigade Commander and Chuanyuan Qi.  The 21st Regiment and 42nd Regiment of the 21st Brigade, which had fought for a long time at Tang and Kunlun Pass, were exchanged for Nanning. The area was composed of the 11th Regiment and 41st Regiment of the 9th Brigade, and the 1st and 2nd Regiment of the Taiwan Infantry.  Defense involves the construction of fortifications, storage of ammunition, food and earthwork tools, etc., and preparations for a month of defense. In order to expand the defense perimeter, the 9th Brigade also conducted several sorties."

    "In addition, after His Excellency Oikawa Genshichi arrived at Batang, his subordinate troops sent him a 1/50,000 map captured during the battle, which was better than the 1/100,000 map used by the imperial army on the battlefield.  It is much more accurate. Oikawa-kun believes that many of the problems that occurred in the previous battle were related to inaccurate maps. Therefore, based on this accurate map, they redeployed artillery, instructed the supporting aviation forces on ground targets, and targeted the brigade.  The map used by the regiment has been corrected."

    "Also, the base camp has adjusted the command level of the 21st Army and appointed Major General Hiromoto Nemoto as the Chief of Staff of the 21st Army. The former Chief of Staff, Major General Yuuichi Dohashi, has been transferred to the staff position because he understands French and has served as a military attache stationed in France.  The second minister of this ministry, and negotiated with General Cadel, the French Governor in Vietnam, asking him to stop supporting/na using Vietnamese ports and railways.¡±

    "You Xi, it seems that the battle on the southern front will not end for a while. To solve the problem in southwestern Shandong, it seems that the main force cannot be used at the moment!"

    Having said this, Odaka Kamezo looked at Chutaro Shimizu on the side, and then said: "Shimizu, since the intelligence department said that there are not many troops in southwestern Shandong, I will trouble you to make another trip this time! The previous attack  The battle on Weishan Island was very good. I have asked the Front Army Headquarters to take credit for you. If you can eliminate the mysterious arm/arms in Southwest Shandong this time, the teacher can recommend you to Sir Tada Shun for promotion to the Army.  Major General!"

    "Hai, thank you teacher for your cultivation!"

    "Yo Xi, go down and get ready, don't let me down!"

    "Hai! Please wait for the good news!"
