Hanyuan Gong Zairen, Chief of Staff of the Base Camp Staff Headquarters, paused with a look of shame on his face and said: "This tragic defeat was indeed unexpected. In just half a day, more than 22,000 Imperial Army soldiers were killed. It is truly an unprecedented shame and failure! As Chief of Staff, I

I have an unshirkable responsibility, please punish me!"

Hirohito quickly waved his hand and said: "Uncle Emperor, please don't blame yourself. How can I blame you for this! I just hate those idiots who underestimated the enemy and were careless. I had already ordered to defend the fortress city and resist layer by layer. However, these idiots actually fought against the Jiaodong Group Army in the plains.

Decisive battle!" Prince Kanin Giyazaihito was the great-uncle of Emperor Showa. He was an important minister in charge of the army for the emperor during the Showa period and was one of the chief culprits in the war of aggression against China.

During the Russo-Japanese War, he distinguished himself as a cavalry general. From the late September 18th Incident to the full-scale invasion of China, he served as the Chief of Staff of the Japanese Army, directing the war of aggression against China behind the scenes. He issued every order for the Japanese invasion of China. He was very responsible for Japan.

The growth of the fascist army and its capture of Chinese territory played an irreplaceable role.

In his later years, the palace of Kanin Palace was so deep that no one in the army dared to mess with it. In fact, he became the head of the army. "Hai! What the Emperor said is true!" Deputy Chief of Staff Tada Shun nodded in agreement, and then continued:

"But this time the situation is a bit special. The Chinese army used an extremely powerful tactic!

According to Lieutenant Colonel Nojima's analysis, this tactic is called blitzkrieg, and it is still in the theoretical research stage among German allies!" Hirohito frowned and said: "Blitzkrieg? What kind of tactic is this? Since even the German allies are doing theoretical research, how can the Chinese army do it?

Will you use this tactic?"

Shun Tada quickly replied: "Lieutenant Colonel Nojima only dabbled in it when he was studying in Germany and did not learn a complete war theory! However, according to the intelligence sent back, it can be known that this tactic makes full use of aircraft, tanks and mechanization

With the quick advantage of the troops, you can defeat the enemy with a sudden attack and win!

We are at a disadvantage this time because we know too little about this new tactic. The power of the tank swarm charge is too great, especially the defense of the opponent's tanks is amazing. The Imperial Army lacks anti-tank weapons, and the Imperial warriors have no way to effectively stop it!"

"Baga! How can this cunning Chinese commander be so difficult to deal with! Doesn't that mean we have no way to defeat the tanks and armored units of the Jiaodong Group Army?"

After carefully listening to Tada Shun's explanation and analysis, Hirohito's face became ugly! "That's not the case!" Tada Shun suddenly said: "The most effective way to combat this tactic is aerial bombing, but the Jiaodong Army's air force is also quite large.

Awesome! The Imperial Air Force suffered a big loss this time. I really don’t know where they got so many advanced fighter jets!"

Army Minister Ohno Jiro nodded and said: "That's true. If it weren't for the Flying Tigers of the Jiaodong Group Army, the Imperial Army would never have suffered such a disastrous defeat!" Ohno Jiro's heart was full of sadness. He fought against Jiang Qiang many times, and there was no one without it.

After a bloody encounter, he finally left the position of division commander with regret and shame! Although he has been promoted now, what Jiro Ohno desires more is to gallop on the battlefield and gain more achievements in opening up new territories!

Tada Shun continued: "In addition, you can also use tank troops to fight against it, or a large number of anti-tank warfare anti-artillery, anti-tank mines and other weapons! And these are also the shortcomings of our current army. Against Jiaodong

A powerful opponent like the group army is particularly troublesome!" "Baga! If I had known this, before they became successful, I should have killed them with all my strength, no matter how much it cost!"

Hirohito felt extremely regretful. If he only lost a few divisions and lost some territory, it would not be a big deal. He was afraid that the Jiaodong Group Army would develop too fast and even be completely beyond his control! Xianyuan Gong Zairen said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, you don't have to

Too worried, the empire's powerful national strength will never stagnate because of some small setbacks! We just lack enough understanding and attention to this Chinese army. As long as we make timely corrections, we can not only turn the tide, but also be a blessing in disguise!

"

"Gah! What the emperor uncle said is absolutely true!" Hirohito's face softened slightly. He suffered heavy losses and defeats at the hands of Jiang Qiang time and time again. Not to mention the frontline officers and soldiers, even he, the aloof emperor, began to become unconfident and shaken!

Tada Shun continued: "Your Majesty, in addition to the need to speed up the updating of weapons and equipment, our combat theory also needs to speed up the updating. I suggest sending more outstanding officers to Germany for training!"

"Yoshi! I'm right!" Hirohito nodded without hesitation, and then said with bright eyes: "This lightning tactic is so effective! Why can't we use it? Although it is difficult to use it against the Jiaodong Group Army, it can't be used against the Jiaodong Group Army.

It should be possible for large areas under Kuomintang control!"

Tada Shun smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, there are too few plains in southern China and the terrain is very complex, which is not suitable for large-scale mechanized operations! If we were on the North China battlefield and Xuzhou battlefield, if we could know this kind of blitzkrieg in advance, we would be able to do a lot

, maybe China can really be destroyed in three months!" "Yes, it is such a pity!" Hirohito sighed helplessly.

Tada Shun added at this time: "However, this tactic still deserves further study and improvement. Our northern enemy, the Soviet Union, has an extremely vast plain area, and it will definitely be very effective when the time comes!" "Let's talk about this later! Our most important thing at the moment is

Our mission is to end the Battle of Wuhan as soon as possible and force the Chinese National Government to surrender as soon as possible! Then concentrate our efforts to cleanly and completely eliminate the Jiaodong Group Army!"

Hirohito waved his hands speechlessly. He had been beaten up by Wang Yizhe just before. Although he had received a lot of benefits from the Germans, the Japanese army really couldn't defeat Wang Yizhe at the moment! Tada Shun suddenly said: "Your Majesty is wise!

Currently, millions of Chinese troops have been assembled in the Wuhan area. The advance of the imperial warriors has encountered extremely stubborn resistance. It is difficult to end the battle from the front in a short time!

Tingting, led by the special forces of Hongkou District, Shanghai, took a Shanghai Airlines passenger plane to the Jiaodong Peninsula. When Jiang Qiang heard that Tingting was coming, he brought Shunzi, Li Jinglin and Huzi to the airport early in the morning.

, Tingting knew Huzi and Li Jinglin, so Jiang Qiang had no choice but to take the three of them to the airport to welcome Tingting's arrival.

"Leaving out early and coming back late" is a distinctive characteristic of Shandong people. They go out to Shanghai to fish in the morning, and their exhausted figures can only be seen walking towards their long-awaited relatives until late at night.

On the map, the inconspicuous Shandong area is the area closest to the sea. It is said that the young men in Shandong are strong and straightforward; the girls are strong and beautiful; and the seafood is delicious. Do you know "Horse Treading on Flying Swallows"? That statue of personality stands in the "Horse Breeding"

The center of the island.

The hometown of the sea made me grow up in the sea breeze all the time. I listened to the sea breeze, watched the waves, walked on the waves, and ran towards the embrace of the sea. The sea not only nourished us, but also fattened the fish and shrimp. The fish lived freely in the sea.

I was swimming on the ground, and the sea mothers were dancing freely, and I was enjoying them beautifully. Standing on the top of the mountain, looking at the blue sky, overlooking the sea, and seeing the natural beauty, I couldn't help but think of the beautiful Baotu Spring.

Famous all over the world, it is known as "liquids on four sides and willows on three sides". He sprays water upwards every day and is never lazy. He is like a toy, bringing us joy, and he is like material, bringing us inspiration.

Like a movie, it brings entertainment to us. The Baotu Spring described by Lao She reminds me of Mount Tai. There is more than one Mount Tai, and the peaks are "heart to heart", high and low, wide and narrow.

There are countless people who want to see it. It can be said that it is a fairyland. The beautiful scenery of Mount Tai makes people yearn for and admire it. It is worthy of being the first of the five mountains. Mount Tai is so beautiful that people will never forget to leave. Who can forget the rising sun?

As soon as the sky dawned, Father Sun was crowed by the flower rooster. The first ray of sunshine shone into the heart, through the window, and towards the earth. Who would have thought that spring is approaching quietly, and Shandong in spring

It is even more beautiful. The first ray of sunshine shines into the earth, and everything wakes up. The grass pokes its head out from the quilt, then stretches its "big lazy body", and then faces the wind and accepts the "challenge". Willow statue

Girl, the vertical green branches fluttering in the wind are like her beautiful long hair. The sparkling blue lake surface ripples with pieces of "petals" leaking out the "fragrance" of the "flower". The breeze blows, and the lake surface reflects

Shadows of willows and flowers.

The plane arrived at the Jiaodong Military Airport at 6:50 in the morning. A large plane slowly landed at the military airport in Qixia County. Tingting got off the plane under the leadership of two special forces. Jiang Qiang greeted Tingting and said

"You're here, go home quickly. I made breakfast and it's still in the rice cooker." Tingting ignored Jiang Qiang and walked towards Shunzi and Li Jinglin, relieved. She looked at Li Jinglin and Shunzi Tingting and said, "Thank you for always protecting them with your lives."

Your bastard commander, thank you." Shunzi said nervously to Tingting, "Sister-in-law, please don't say that, we are all embarrassed, Brother Qiang is taking care of us, sister-in-law, why don't you go home first?" Huzi

He drove over in a business car and said to Tingting, "Sister-in-law, please get in the car. Brother Jiang, get in the car quickly."

Jiang Qiang knew that Tingting would be very angry this time, so he just ignored him. Others were fine. There was no way that he would return to Shanghai in less than a year after agreeing to do so. It had already been two years now, and he had no choice.

After writing the letter back, I had no choice but to follow Tingting into the car.

When Jiang Qiang returned home, he introduced Jiang He to Tingting, and specifically said that Jiang He was Zhuang Tao's fiancée. He had no choice but to explain clearly at this time. Jiang He took out breakfast and invited Huzi and the others to eat together. Li Jinglin

They also finished breakfast with Jiang Qiang and Tingting. Huzi and the others went back to the military camp, but Jiang He chose to stay.

"Maintain! Good afternoon! This is my little thought, please accept it!" After get off work in the morning, Xia Yu rode the tram to Jiang Qiang to attend the family banquet. "Do you still need to be polite when you come to my place? It's just that It's an ordinary family dinner, don't be restrained, just treat it as if it's cold at home!" Jiang Qiang smiled, reached out to take the gift, then stood up and said: "Since everyone is here, let's go have a meal first, and finish the meal Let’s talk slowly after dinner!”

After happily finishing the sumptuous lunch, Jiang Qiang said to Tingting and Xia Yu: "You two come to the study with me!" "Okay!" Xia Yu stood up and followed Jiang Qiang.

Behind her, there was a burst of joy in her heart. What girl is not pregnant with love? Although Jiang Qiang has never acted or said anything about the relationship between men and women towards Xia Yu, he really looked at Xia Yu with special eyes and gave him extremely generous care!

Because in Jiang Qiang's view, it is absolutely necessary and should be given special care to such a strange woman who is soft on the outside but strong on the inside and dares to travel across the ocean to return to China to face the national crisis! Jiang Qiang smiled, then changed the topic and said: "Next

Let’s talk about official business, and I’m going to put an extra burden on you! I’m going to launch an in-depth and thorough rectification campaign recently!

The main purpose of this event is to establish efficient and clean government agencies, eliminate evil forces, establish new social trends, and promote anti-Japanese war and patriotism! I want you to be responsible for special reports and create a special news column group for this

The work needs to be carried out continuously and effectively over a long period of time, rather than just blowing by the wind!"

The summer offensive has come to an end, and there won't be any major wars in the short term. It's time to straighten out the internal atmosphere! After a month and a half of summer offensive, the Jiaodong Group Army has annihilated more than 26,000 enemies and regained Mongolia.

Yin County, Boshan County, Linqu County, Changle County, Wei County, Changyi County! Now nearly half of the area outside the Shandong Peninsula has been included!

Currently, the newly occupied areas are being digested and the defense work is being carried out in full swing. Due to the expansion of the territory, the defense areas of each division have also been adjusted accordingly! After a brief introduction, Jiang Qiang handed over a document bag and said: "This is my

You should take the draft back and study it carefully! Come up with a specific implementation plan for me as soon as possible. Whether you want people or things, I will fully support you!"

Xia Yu stretched out her hands to take the document bag, nodded heavily and said, "Please rest assured, sir, I will do my best and will never let you down." Jiang Qiang nodded and said, "Okay! You can go back now.

!" "Okay, sir! I'll go first then!" Xia Yu quickly stood up and nodded to say goodbye.

After Xia Yu left the stage, Tingting joked with a smile: "Jiang Qiang, I think this little girl is not only beautiful, but also very capable. More importantly, she is loyal to you. Why don't you take her in too?"

Are you done?" "Ahem, cough, stop making trouble!" Jiang Qiang's old face turned slightly red, making himself look like a dissolute and unscrupulous local emperor.

Stilwell picked up the coffee, took a sip, and said slowly: "To be honest, I don't know much, but the intelligence collected from all aspects is enough to show that this army is extremely powerful and mysterious!

They have many advanced weapons and equipment that are ahead of their time, such as semi-automatic rifles, tanks, armored vehicles, anti-tank rocket launchers, fighter jets, helicopters and radars! Not only are these weapons and equipment much better than our current equipment, but some of the equipment we are still in

R&D status! I don’t know whether these weapons and equipment were manufactured by them, or whether they were actually imported and smuggled into China from somewhere! Well, to be precise, this is a huge mystery that still cannot be solved!

But I firmly believe that there must be an extremely amazing secret behind this mystery, which is very likely to affect the situation of the entire world in the future!..." "What? Are you telling the truth?"

After listening to Stilwell's explanation, the elegant smile on Roosevelt's face instantly solidified, and he looked like he had seen a ghost and said: "How could there be such a powerful force in China? Are you sure you are not kidding me?"

At 5 pm on August 23, U.S. time, President Roosevelt held a private dinner in the White House, specially for Stilwell, Bevis and other foreign ministers and military attachés who had returned from afar to report on their duties. After the dinner, Roosevelt was alone in the President's Office

Met with Joseph Stilwell, the military attaché of the Embassy in China.

Roosevelt stirred the coffee for a while, then looked up at Stilwell and said: "You just came back from Tianxia, ​​and you know the situation in China most clearly. I want to listen carefully to you about the situation of China's Anti-Japanese War!" Stilwell thought for a moment and said softly.

: "Mr. President, the overall situation is very critical. The Japanese have an absolute advantage! But I believe the final victory will belong to China!"

Joseph Stilwell, an American military strategist who was friendly to China, graduated from West Point Military Academy in 1904, participated in World War I, and served as the attaché of the U.S. Embassy in China. After the Pearl Harbor incident in World War II, the United States entered the war, and history

Diwei was promoted to lieutenant general in 1942 and was sent to China. He successively served as chief of staff of the China Theater, commander-in-chief of the U.S. Army in the China-Burma-India Theater, deputy commander of the Allied Forces Command in Southeast Asia, and commander of the China Garrison in India. He was responsible for allocating U.S. aid supplies to China.

He held various positions and was later promoted to a four-star general.

Roosevelt smiled and asked: "Are you so optimistic about China? As far as I know, China has continuously lost large areas of land. Japan has worked hard for many years and accumulated strong war potential. It has the most powerful army and navy in East Asia. China has

The warlords are fighting in a melee and the country is weak. Do they really have the ability to withstand the Japanese all-out war?" Stilwell put down the coffee cup in his hand and said seriously: "Mr. President, China has a large population and a vast territory, and has extremely strong resilience and war potential.

!

The Japanese have a small territory and lack of resources. Even if they have a huge advantage now, the advantage will turn into a disadvantage as time goes by! Especially with a special and powerful Chinese army, I am even more convinced of this!" Roosevelt asked with a smile:

"Oh, you're talking about the Jiaodong Group Army? How much do you know about this army?"

Stilwell nodded seriously and said: "Mr. President, everything I said is the truth! Because the Chinese commander has done an extremely good job in keeping secrets, those core weapons and equipment are only spread through rumors and cannot be accessed by outsiders.
