Jiang Qiang originally wanted to sit down and have breakfast so that he could listen to what the people had to say. But he didn't have time and went back late. Tingting, the girl, got up and couldn't wait to leave. She was going back to the field hospital at this time, so breakfast would definitely be

If I can't eat, I'm afraid I'll have to go to the operating table hungry again.

Thinking about Tingting's eating habits of milk and bread, the Chinese food was bland. Jiang Qiang ordered some sticky bean buns, fried screw cakes, leek boxes, two tea eggs, and took two more from Shunzi.

I asked the boss to add some spiced sweet foam and bean curd to the military lunch box, and handed it to two guards to hold. He took out a two-yuan RMB note from his pocket and handed it to the boss.

The man selling breakfast refused to ask for any money, saying that the Jiaodong Army had captured Jinan City, so how much would it cost to have some food? Shunzi stepped forward and said to the boss: "The Jiaodong Army's business is fair. If they don't pay for meals, who would they be?"

?Hurry up and settle the accounts, we still have things to do."

The man selling breakfast was also quick and easy. He couldn't refuse and then started to settle accounts. He kept saying, "5 points for bean curd, 5 points for five-spice sweet foam, two sticky bean buns, two fried screw cakes, and two chive boxes, five points each.

A total of thirty cents; one tea egg is five cents, and two tea eggs are ten cents. The total is fifty cents, so I’ll give you one dollar and fifty cents.”

Shunzi said: "How come everything costs five cents?" The boss said: "We are not very literate, so it will be troublesome to calculate the accounts. If we all charge five cents, it will be easier to calculate the accounts. Commander of the Jiaodong Army, don't think it's too expensive. This is it.

The Jiaodong Army captured Jinan and restored the supply. When the little devil was here, eggs like these could not be bought even if you had money."

Jiang Qiang saw that the boss was neat and asked, "Boss, in addition to RMB, do you accept Japanese yuan, joint coupons, silver dollars, or French currency here?"

The boss shook his head like a rattle: "Commander of the Jiaodong Army, please stop teasing me. We don't accept Japanese yuan and joint coupons now. The Jiaodong Army's notice clearly stated that it is forbidden to use Japanese yuan and joint coupons. I only accept RMB and silver dollars here."

, French currency. Snack stalls generally do not use silver dollars, and in the past they only collected some copper coins. Now they mainly accept RMB, and French currency is also acceptable. The commander of the Jiaodong Army may not know that before you captured Jinan, this Jinan City

The merchants here have secretly used RMB. RMB is easy to use. You can buy grain, vegetables, and pork when you take it to the countryside. Joint coupons are the worst. They are just a piece of paper when you leave Jinan City. Farming in the countryside is basically useless.

I don’t recognize this kind of banknotes. In the past, we needed silver dollars and Japanese dollars, but later we only needed Japanese dollars, RMB, and French currency. I heard that Japanese dollars can be handed over to the Jiaodong Army to be exchanged for RMB, but joint notes cannot be exchanged for anything."

The man didn't mind being verbose, and continued: "Commander of the Jiaodong Army, this food stall was passed down from my father. When he was doing it, he was collecting silver coins, copper plates, and making money. When I was doing it, he also collected legal currency.

After the Japanese came, silver dollars and legal tender were not allowed to circulate. They were only allowed to accept their military coupons, Korean coupons, Japanese dollars, and this year there was an additional joint coupon. We are not afraid of your jokes, we will go there as soon as the stall is closed.

I am afraid that the money will not be used when buying food and seasonings. Many merchants in Jinan City now have Yuan and Union coupons in their hands. Yue Yuan is easy to handle. I heard that the Jiaodong Army only prohibits their use, but for normal payment, the Union coupons are all

It’s become waste paper. These days are not the days for doing business.”

After Jiang Qiang heard this, he felt that this man was telling the truth. The currency of the Japanese puppet army did kill people. Not only was he fighting an economic war with the little devils, but the little devils were also fighting an economic war. They banned the silver dollar and the circulation of legal currency was a sinister thing.

Recruit. In the future, maybe the little devils will really counterfeit legal currency, buy and sell by force, and plunder China's resources as they did in history. Maybe it won't be long before the little devils will counterfeit RMB. You have to be prepared for a rainy day!

Just as Jiang Qiang was thinking, he heard a crisp female voice: "Boss, please bring two bowls of tofu pudding and a plate of fried screw cakes."

The voice was like an oriole, and it was indescribably pleasant. Liu Yimin couldn't help but look up and saw two female soldiers coming to have breakfast, so he didn't pay attention and turned around to leave.

After walking a few steps, Jiang Qiang felt something was wrong. The female voice was from Beijing, and her voice had a hint of a southeastern Shandong accent, which sounded nice. His troops had never been to Peking. Although there were female soldiers who ran out of Peking to join the army, they were all intellectuals.

, is the treasure of the army. They usually work in cultural units, hospitals, communication camps, and radio stations. These units are strictly protected units and cannot go out on the streets without orders. Besides, this female voice has an accent from Ju County in southern Shandong.

As for the charm, the problem arises. At this time, it is very special to be able to travel from Southeast Shandong to Peking and speak fluent Beijing accent. There are not many such women in Southeast Shandong, and they are all very famous.

Jiang Qiang stopped and looked back, only to see the backs of two female soldiers. One of them had beautiful black hair under a military cap. Her neck was like a swan's neck, white and delicate, tall and slender.

She has a slim waist and shoulders, round hips, and a spotless military uniform. Just looking at her back, you can tell that she is an absolute beauty. The other one is slightly shorter, about 1.60 meters tall, with short ear-length hair under a military cap, a well-proportioned figure, and a dusty color on his military uniform.

It means that they marched all the way.

Why didn't the tall female soldier's uniform have the color of dust? In just a moment, the two female soldiers sat on the stall, and Jiang Qiang could see it clearly now.

The one who spoke was a slightly shorter female soldier, with curved eyebrows and beautiful dimples. She was very beautiful. But when compared with the tall girl, she was inferior. I saw that the tall girl's eyebrows were like distant mountains, and her eyes were like paint.

, his complexion is as crystal clear as jade, his facial features are extremely delicate, his complexion is as white and delicate as if it has been washed with milk, and there is a sense of nobility in his movements and movements.

Jiang Qiang was suspicious. This girl's figure was similar to Jingjing's, and her aura was similar to Tingting's. Her appearance was not bad at all compared to Beijima Yuko, An Ran, Chen Mingzhu, Wang Dan, and Wang Hui, and maybe even slightly better.

.When did you have such an outstanding female soldier in your army?

Perhaps because she felt someone was staring, the tall female soldier lowered her eyes and remained silent. The short female soldier raised her head and looked at Jiang Qiang's face a few times, with a look of confusion on her face.

With a hint of blush, he lowered his head in panic and started eating.

It’s boring to watch any more. Maybe the two female soldiers will think they are stooges! Jiang Qiang turned around and left, leading Shunzi and the others back to the division headquarters.

The voice of the breakfast vendor came from behind: "I wonder why this little devil died so quickly. Look at our Jiaodong Army. They look like Zhao Zilong, tall and mighty. During the war, they ride on big white horses and head there.

Stop, no need to fire, it scared the little Japs to death!" After Jiang Qiang returned to the room, Tingting had already gotten up and was sitting in front of the window combing her hair.

Jiang Qiang put down his breakfast, walked behind Tingting, picked up the wooden comb, and awkwardly combed Tingting's hair. After combing his mouth, he kissed Tingting's hair and forehead, and the two of them were tired of each other again. Lying on the river

In Qiang's arms, Tingting murmured: "Jiang Qiang, I feel like I'm in a dream. I'm afraid that when I wake up from the dream, everything will change."

Jiang Qiang said: "I am willing to weave a colorful dream for you, so that you can live in happiness every day like the princess in the fairy tale. Get up and eat quickly. After dinner, there are still a lot of things to do!"

Tingting then left Jiang Qiang's arms and sat down at the table. The two of them fed me a bite, and I fed you a bite. They looked tender and sweet, looking like a beautiful newlywed couple. After eating, Jiang Qiang said with satisfaction: "I didn't expect that the majesty is so great."

The general will also buy breakfast for his wife, so I am considered a blessed woman!"

Jiang Qiang said: "Of course, if you are not lucky, who will be lucky! The world is so big, can the woman Jiang Qiang likes be an ordinary person? Little fool, your luck is still behind you. I want

Let you wake up in the middle of the night smiling all your life!"

Tingting's beautiful eyes wandered around Jiang Qiang's face, and finally she leaned into Jiang Qiang's ear and said: "You are a tiger, a tiger that specializes in eating women!" After saying that, without waiting for Jiang Qiang's reaction, she turned around and

Went downstairs.

Jiang Qiang was shocked. Chen Mingzhu had also told him this. Could it be that these two women were twin sisters in their previous lives and had the same mind?

Jiang Qiang was not sure about one thing. The reason why the Japanese army on the northern front was reluctant to move towards Dexian County and Cangxian area was not entirely because Shouichi Terauchi was afraid of being wiped out and deliberately reduced his troops, waiting for further mobilization of the army. It was mainly because the Japanese army was afraid of being wiped out.

There were internal personnel adjustments, and the reason was exactly as expected before the capture of Jinan, and the Kwantung Army was indeed taken for granted.

According to Terauchi's plan, the three divisions of the Kwantung Army as the main force, coupled with the four divisions of Luxi, Dexian, Jinan, and Jilu border, will cooperate with the Japanese army on the southern front to gather and annihilate the main force of the Eighth Route Army's teaching division in

Under Jinan City. Unexpectedly, as soon as the First Division, Second Division, and Twenty-third Division arrived at Shanhaiguan, Jinan City had already been captured by the Jiaodong Army. In this case, for the sake of safety, Terauchi had to order the southern route

The Japanese army shrunk in an all-round way and gathered in the Yanzhou and Jining areas.

By the time the three divisions of the Kwantung Army arrived in the Cangxian and Dexian areas, the Japanese Luxi, Jinan, and Jilu border troops stationed in Cangxian and Dexian had all completed their assembly.

Of course, the troops withdrawing from Jinan, Luxi, and the Hebei-Shandong border were somewhat miserable. They were all deprived of a regiment of troops to participate in the battlefield in Henan. The troops were originally insufficient, and the Eighth Route Army laid landmines and fired cold shots along the way.

In the pursuit, the troops suffered some losses and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. In addition, the Jiaodong Army captured the commander of the 12th Army, Odaka Kamezo, and the 108th Division was eliminated. The 33rd Division and the Jinan garrison were lost.

After receiving the news of contact, the morale was even lower, and it was seen that they could only be used as auxiliary troops.

Terauchi was full of hope that the First Division and the Second Division could play the mainstay role and have the courage to shoulder heavy responsibilities, attack quickly, and recapture Jinan. Unexpectedly, Lieutenant General Kawamura Kyosuke, the commander of the First Division, was extremely uncooperative.

Kawamura Kyosuke, an old devil, had long been frightened out of his courage by the Jiaodong Army. Although his First Division was the oldest division of the Japanese Army and well-equipped, it was also a famous playboy unit in the Japanese Army. In terms of reality,

There is still a certain gap between the combat effectiveness of the Second Division, the Fifth Division, and the Sixth Division.

When Kyousuke Kawamura thought about it, Jiang Qiang's Shandong Military Region was not easy to mess with. The army surrounded Tianjin and lost the 1st Cavalry Regiment. He also raided Shandong and lost the air. The Kwantung Army lost the 107th Division and the North China Front Army.

The Fifth Division. If you want to deal with Jiang Qiang's Shandong Army, you cannot rely on the existing strength alone. You must mobilize at least six permanent divisions. The Fourteenth Division on the southern front is now far away from you.

It's too far. It's too dangerous to rely solely on the First Division and the Second Division. It might become a meal for Jiang Qiang, a tiger that only eats the imperial army. In that case, just follow the example of Maeda Toshio and Sasaki.

First, the tail is high and the turtle hides, which is the footsteps of Hisao Tani and others.

The frightened Kawamura Kyosuke sent a telegram to Terauchi Touhou. On the one hand, he said that the Shandong Army had captured Jinan and was waiting for work. Attacking at this time was against common sense in the art of war. On the other hand, he said that the First Division and the Second Division were going back and forth continuously.

Between North China and Manchuria, the troops have not been able to rest for a long time, and the soldiers are extremely tired. They should take a short rest and reconsider the enemy's situation before considering how to attack. Not only that, Kawamura Kyosuke also reminded Touichi Terauchi that Manchuria is the

It is the foundation of the Japanese Empire. The Kwantung Army is responsible for preparing for war against Wang Yizhe. The main force of the Kwantung Army of the First Division and the Second Division will stay in North China for a long time, which will greatly affect the stability of Manchuria.

Not only that, Kawamura Kyosuke also secretly reported to the commander of the Kwantung Army, Ueda Kenkichi, asking him to use the Northeast Anti-Resistance Alliance's frequent activities in Liaoning as an excuse to put pressure on Terauchi and try to take over the First Division and the Second Division as soon as possible.

Transfer back to the Northeast.

Kawamura Kyosuke had this idea, and Ueda Kenkichi even more so. The main task of his Kwantung Army was to prepare for war against Wang Yizhe, not to serve as the fire-fighting team of the North China Front. Last time he went to North China, he went to three permanent divisions, and lost one.

The fifth division. This time there are three divisions again, don't come back with two divisions. They are all acting like the North China Front Army. How many elites in the Japanese Empire can be ruined!

Therefore, Ueda Kenkichi didn't care whether the Emperor was happy or not, and whether Prince Kanin Miya Zaihito was satisfied or not, he began to send telegrams and make phone calls to Terauchi Kotobuki, notifying him that the security situation in Manchuria was deteriorating and reminding him that the First Division

The task of the Second Division is to prepare for the war against Wang Yizhe, and it is impossible to stay in North China for too long.

When Tousuke Terauchi was so angry that he encountered Kawamura Kyosuke secretly stumbling upon him, his annoyance became even more exasperated.

Kawamura Kyosuke, an old Japanese soldier, thought that he was so great as a lieutenant general and the division commander of the first division. He dared to play the game of mouse and cat with the giant of the Japanese army, Juichi Terauchi. He simply didn’t know

How to write the word "death"!

Historically, Kawamura Kyosuke was dismissed from his post in July of this year. Now due to Jiang Qiang's crossing, many personnel changes in the Japanese army have changed. Kawamura Kyosuke also stayed in the position of division commander for a few more months.

.

Originally, if Kawamura Kyousuke went to see Terauchi and directly told Terauchi that he was worried about falling into Jiang Qiang's trap, he might be able to work for a few more days. After all, Terauchi knew Jiang Qiang well and knew that

Launching an attack hastily with the existing forces is likely to cause problems. It should not be done, it should not be done. Not only did Kawamura Kyosuke himself reveal his cowardice in the telegram, but he also encouraged the commander of the Kwantung Army, General Ueda Kenkichi, to put pressure on Juichi Terauchi.

Who is Mr. Terauchi? How could he see Ueda Kenkichi in his eyes?

If it had been left to the time when the 226th Mutiny suppressed the backbone of the Kodo Sect, Takashi Terauchi would have killed Kawamura Kyosuke with just one order. Now is the time when troops and generals have been lost and morale needs to be gathered, Takashi Terauchi does not want to go too far.

, it was just a secret report to the Emperor, saying that Kawamura Kyosuke was corrupt, accepted bribes, and feared the enemy like a tiger, so he must be dismissed and transferred to the reserve force. The commander of the first division was proposed to be Lieutenant General Naosaburo Okabe, Chief of Staff of the North China Front, and Lieutenant General Yamashita Tomofumi was asked to take over.

Chief of Staff of the North China Front, please transfer Major General Akira Muto, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Central China Expedition Army, to serve as Deputy Chief of Staff of the North China Front, and please transfer Lieutenant General Iida Sadagu, Commander of the Guards Division, to take over as Commander of the Twelfth Army.

Emperor Hirohito is even more troubled than Terauchi Hisashi. The annihilation of two commanders of the 12th Army and three security divisions in a row has made him humiliated in the world. Even seeing Empress Ryoko, she feels that she is not as gentle and considerate as she used to be.

, not to mention these generals who are always defeated in battles? Not to mention Kawamura Kyosuke, even Sugisumoto and Terauchi Kotobuki want to kick him away, but they just can’t choose a suitable land minister for a while, and they can’t choose either.

Just a suitable commander of the North China Front.
