The sudden departure of Nishio Shotoshiro made the chief of staff of the dispatching army Seishiro Itagaki feel a little disappointed, but fortunately, his relationship with Shinro Hata is quite harmonious. Seishiro Itagaki, who has been trying to surrender to the Chinese government, must rely on Shinro Hata to make a breakthrough.

And progress, the ultimate bargaining chip in political negotiations is nothing more than a military strike. As a soldier, Seishiro Itagaki is still relatively adventurous. He always thought that he knew the bad nature of the Chinese people very well, but he ignored that the Chinese nation can exist for five thousand years.

, As the continuation of the only ancient civilization in the world, it naturally has its own reason.

Seishiro Itagaki only saw that China is not short of traitors, but he did not see China, and even more passionate people. As his capable generals, Kagesaki and Takeo Imai are fully responsible for the surrender of the Chongqing National Government, but Itagaki

Zheng Siro could also see that Wang Jingwei and others in Nanjing did not seem to be interested in this strategy, nor were they proactive.

However, more political problems need to be solved by military affairs. Itagaki Seishiro knew the most. The empire was ready to start the formation of the Southern Army, and the Kanto Army was unprecedentedly strengthened. Teraunuchi Soichi was appointed as the commander of the Southern Army.

, which means that the empire may fight against different enemies on several battlefields in the future? This is a creepy thing that can be thought of!

Shinji Hata's combat strategy is actually following the landing operation plan of Suzusao Nishio, because the overall situation on the entire Chinese battlefield is still very serious. Although the Imperial Imperial Army successively captured large numbers such as Qingdao, Wuhan, Shanghai, Nanjing, and Guangzhou.

Port cities mean that almost all major foreign contacts in China have been lost from north to south. This is undoubtedly a disaster for a country that relies heavily on foreign economic and military aid to support the Japanese war.

Sexual.

However, the result was not as predicted by the General Staff. The Chinese army would collapse and collapse thousands of miles away. The Chinese army's resistance became stronger and stronger. It also formed the Chinese expeditionary force to try to maintain its last external transportation line.

This is the most unbearable thing in the Great Japanese Empire. The blood sacrifice of mountains and rivers of the Anti-Japanese War 560

Because at this time, the only external contact of the National Government was the waterway and the Yunnan-Burma Highway in the southwest. In order to completely cut off all foreign contacts, the Chongqing National Government of China forced the surrender of the Chinese government, thus freeing up troops to prepare to invest in the future battlefield.

The dispatched army proposed that the Japanese military headquarters requested the base camp to decide to launch a large-scale military operation aimed at occupying the coastal areas of Guangxi and then occupying Nanning, and cutting off China's southwest international transportation line.

To this end, Hata Shunrok decided to give the Chinese a surprise attack during the Chinese Spring Festival. For this reason, the dispatched troops ordered the divisions under the Fifth Division, an elite unit that fought in mainland China, to Qingdao, Shandong and Zibo.

The region has carried out intensive landing operations and mountain combat training.

At the same time, the Yantian brigade stationed in Taiwan to adapt to mountain warfare was also headed to Guangzhou for landing drills. After both troops had completed training, the Taiwan brigade of Imamura Tsubasa and the Taiwan brigade of Yantian Dingqi were ordered to be used as the

The main force of the army's participation in the war, the Navy sent a fleet and the Third United Airlines fleet to provide maritime and air support. It was commanded by Lieutenant General Ando Rikishi, commander of the 20th Division, and began a military operation landing in Guangxi.

In the front battlefield, Hata Shunrok took Okamura's 11th Army as the main force. In addition to consolidating Nanchang, he used the second to three divisions to attack Changsha again. Two divisions were used as support from the outside, and the main force attacked Yichang.

The Chinese army was unable to take care of each other, and took advantage of the weakness of the slow mobility of the Chinese army, to deal with heavy blows to the Chinese army and wait for an opportunity to seize Yichang.

The Japanese army was deploying troops on a large scale. It can be said that this was the last large-scale attack before the main force of the Chinese dispatched army was transferred after the strategic adjustment of the Japanese Empire. Once the Southern General Army was officially formed, it may only be dispatched from China.

The troops will be drawn in the military combat sequence, and the glory of the Chinese dispatched troops will no longer be achieved.

Gao Fei was not unaware of the Japanese army's maneuver, but he was not sure that this had anything to do with the battle that should have happened in 1939 in history. First, the Japanese upper-level strategic decision-making commander was changed to Shinroku Hata, and

It is not a simple landing battle in history. The 11th Army on the front battlefield in Changsha is also ready to move. What role will Okamura Yasuji play in this battle?

The Japanese army sought fighter jets many times and the ultimate goal of launching the battle was only to attack the Chinese army's field battles. This Guangxi operation has no same trajectory as the Guangxi operation in history, and the bitter fruits brought about by the great changes in history can only be

Swallowed helplessly, after all, everything follows the law of eternity. The Japanese are not pig heads. For example, in history, the famous Qigan Village ambush. After three consecutive ambushes, the Japanese army, who failed to fight, massacred the Chinese people in more than a dozen villages.

, a hundred miles of killing became a no-man's land. These are all changes caused by the continuous changes of historical causal relationships. These continuous changes are like fermentation. The reactions often catch people off guard.

Will the Japanese launch a landing battle? Will the Fifth Division rest or prepare for mountain combat in Qingdao and Zibo? I'm afraid no one can tell this. Just relying on the Fifth Division to transfer to Qingdao will determine the Japanese army.

Landing in Guangxi? Gao Fei is not crazy yet. He can't even convince himself of his statement, let alone convince the military committee's big men who are more sophisticated than monkeys.

Moreover, Gao Fei had to face a lot of things, and the troops were reorganized. However, due to the mid-range military aid by the Soviet Union, the weapons and equipment of the troops became a very difficult problem. Soong Ziwen in the United States

Meeting with US President Roosevelt so that the United States can put pressure on the UK side, with the British troops stationed in Myanmar and Indian troops providing weapons and equipment, but it is said that the negotiation process was not smooth, and the British only wanted to get rid of the burden but did not want to

Take responsibility.

After the U.S. Senior Military Staff Observatory returned to China, the evaluation of the Chinese Expeditionary Force was very high, believing that its individual quality was no less than that of the German soldiers in the European War. Although the overall level of Chinese officers was average, their soldiers were the world.
