At this time, Emperor Hirohito remembered Itagaki Seishiro who was on trial, and felt that it was too unjust to let Itagaki Seishiro die. At that time, Jiang Qiang's army suddenly emerged, and no one understood him. It was normal for Itagaki Seishiro to suffer a loss in his hands.

At this point in the war, it had been more than a year since the battle with Jiang Qiang, but the losses were even greater. Compared with Itagaki Seishiro, Juichi Terauchi, Sugimoto Yuan, Prince Kanin Miya Zaihito, and all the generals of the North China Front Army in the base camp.

Damn it!

If Itagaki Seishiro is here and takes over as Prime Minister with his fighting style, he will definitely be much more proactive than Sugisu Yuan, and the battle plan will probably be bolder and sharper. One step back is to let him serve as the fifth division.

Division Commander, I estimate that the results of the Fifth Division will definitely not be what they are now.

Emperor Hirohito was in this state of mind, and Terauchi Hisashi's telegram was naturally approved immediately. When Naosaburo Okabe rushed to the First Division with the telegram from the base camp in hand to announce the order, Kawamura Kyosuke realized that he had made a mistake and offended someone he should not have done.

The offended person had no choice but to surrender his sword in despair and return to Japan under the escort of the military police.

The personnel changes in the North China Front due to the cowardice of Lieutenant General Kawamura Kyosuke, the commander of the 1st Division, delayed Terauchi Hisashi's plan to recapture Jinan. At this time, he did not dare to take action anymore, because Jiang Qiang had indeed established a firm foothold in Jinan.

With his heel, Terauchi was unsure where Jiang Qiang's main force would go. In addition, Jiang Qiang did not take advantage of the opportunity to capture Dezhou, which made Terauchi doubtful and worried that Jiang Qiang was staring at him eagerly and was ready to pounce at any time.

He was caught off guard. In this case, Terauchi Toshiba needed to carefully assess the situation and formulate a thorough battle plan. He had to order the Japanese troops on the northern front and the Japanese army on the southern front. The Dezhou Japanese army could not hold on and used a small force to infiltrate and attack.

The number, strength and movements of the Jiaodong Army.

There is another factor, that is, logistical pressure. You must know that Jinan is the main supply station of the Shandong Japanese Army. The ammunition reserves of the original Second Army and the later established Twelfth Army are all in Jinan. All divisions are also stationed in Jinan.

At the military station, Jiang Qiang made a fortune by taking Jinan, but the Japanese army was complaining endlessly. Ammunition, food, clothing, and medicine had to be transported from Japan to North China again. By this time in the war, Japan had already tried its best

, the losses were so huge all at once, if we want to replenish them all, it will take a while just for Lu Xiang Sugimoto to negotiate with Prime Minister Konoe Fumuma, let alone transporting the supplies to North China and distributing them to the various troops.

.

Old Guizi Siuchi Shou is in a state of distress now. Jiang Qiang has no time to study carefully what is going on with Siuchi Shou. He is currently involved in family matters and the war is going on, so he is too busy!

On the morning of November 11, the bodies of soldiers who died in the Jinan War were transported back to Jinan.

Jiang Qiang also held a large funeral for the soldiers who died here. This time was the same as the last time in Tianjin. The number of people attending this funeral probably exceeded 50,000 people in Jinan. Many people were thinking about the commander.

The Communist Party members gave these soldiers the greatest honor. The compensation for each soldier who died has reached 150,000 yuan, which is about 15,000 oceans. At this time, there is no such compensation in the country.

Just after the funeral, those young and middle-aged men from Shandong went crazy and wanted to join the Shandong Military Region. Now the Nanjing government's general compensation for soldiers who died is probably about fifty oceans at most. Jiang Qiang and the others are no longer worried about money.

The Development Bank of Jinan also resumed normal work soon, and Zhuang Tao has also arrived in Jinan to start work. Zhuang Tao is already quite mature at this time, and his work in Zhaoyuan is also obvious to everyone. Zhaoyuan's prosperity has already

It is similar to Taicang, Shanghai. In addition, the Zhaoyuan Gold Mine is also continuously producing gold, which has brought vitality to Zhaoyuan. Zhaoyuan's economy has far surpassed that of Jinan City. Even Qixia County's economy has surpassed Jinan's at this time.

The county magistrate of Zhaoyuan County is now Jiang He. Zhuang Tao did not agree at first. Zhuang Tao wanted Jiang He to take care of Jiang Qiang's life. How could Jiang Qiang agree? Instead, he asked Zhuang Tao and Jiang He to get married. After the marriage, Zhuang Tao

Tao came to Jinan to take office, and Jiang He served as the county magistrate of Zhaoyuan County, so that Jiang Qiang would feel relieved.

Shanghai's Guangming Daily reported in its entirety Jiang Qiang's speech at the funeral for the fallen soldiers. At the end of the article, Jiang Qiang said affectionately: "Since the Japanese invaders fully invaded China, our army has volunteered to fight, hanging alone behind enemy lines.

On the premise of military pay and no supplies of ammunition, food and fodder, they fought bloody battles with the Japanese invaders and won consecutive battles. Countless heroes stepped on the bodies of their comrades and launched a desperate charge towards the Japanese until they fell under the guns of the Japanese. Whenever I recall these comrades,

Their voices and smiles often keep me awake at night, with tears staining my clothes. I know that these comrades of mine are all good sons and daughters of China. They died to defeat the invaders and to defend the country's territorial sovereignty.

To die for the true realization of national literacy, national liberation, and national rejuvenation is to die to protect tens of thousands of Chinese people from being poisoned by the Japanese invaders! Death is great, death is glorious, and the place to die is right! The ancients often said that people always

One death can be heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather. I feel that the comrades who died in the Jiaodong Group Army and the sacrificial spirit of serving the country of all our comrades in China are like the green pine on the top of Mount Tai, shining on future generations to continue their struggle and climb.
