Republic of China game

"The fleet of the Second Fleet, the Second Division, and the Eighth Division are now sailing to the waters south of Huatai Island (Sakhalin Island)... My suggestion is to change the original plan of landing at the mouth of the Amur River. Turn the combat direction to the Soviet port. Using the firepower advantage of the armored cruisers assigned to the Second Fleet, coupled with the strength advantages of the Second Division and the Eighth Division, annihilate these two Soviet infantry divisions without heavy weapons in one fell swoop. Then Advance quickly along the road from the Soviet port to Khabarovsk, strive to capture Khabarovsk before the arrival of Soviet reinforcements, and cut off the back road of Vladivostok! If possible...we can also capture the first fortress in the Far East for the empire!"

"Capturing Vladivostok?" A smug smile suddenly slipped across Nobuyoshi Muto's face. The honor of laying down the first fortress in the Far East will almost certainly win him the rank of Marshal... and the title bestowed by His Majesty the Emperor!Just like Terauchi Shouichi's father Masaaki Terauchi in front of him, how about making an earl or something for his descendants?

Terauchi Shouichi took out another telegram as if conjuring, and handed the telegram to Muto with a smile: "The Kwantung Army has sent a secret telegram. They have found a way to enter the Soviet border and destroy the railway line. It is through the border near the Daxing'anling Mountains." , with friends from China leading the way, there must be no problem. After all, our Great Japanese Empire has won a complete victory in this battle! Maybe the coastal areas of the Far East of the Soviet Union can also belong to the territory of the Empire!"

Muto Nobuyoshi frowned, and looked at Terauchi Shouichi with a complicated look: "But...the Prime Minister and the military department don't want to expand the situation...they mean to teach the Soviet Union a lesson, and then get some compensation...at most Huatai Island (Sakhalin Island) North Island."

But inside the temple, he waved his hand indifferently, and said with a smile: "It is our duty as loyal and brave ministers of His Majesty the Emperor to open up the territory of the empire and establish immortal achievements. As long as His Majesty knows our contributions... everything There is no problem!"

……

At the foot of the Greater Khingan Mountains in the northeast, on the Sino-Soviet border on the banks of the Heilongjiang River.

This is the site of Wang Zhongyi's department with the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army brand.Now this very complex armed force has expanded to nearly 3 people, and has brought almost the entire Greater Khingan Mountains area under control.The situation is better than Luo Yaoguo's original idea, mainly because the [-]th Division of the National Revolutionary Army is currently stationed in the Harbin Songbei Camp openly and aboveboard.The Joint Logistics Command of the National Revolutionary Army can justifiably transport weapons and ammunition to the Northeast continuously.The logistics department of the [-]th Division can also purchase food and fodder in the Northeast openly. Even if the purchase amount is particularly huge, no one will come to meddle in their own business.After all, in this era, which soldier does not do business by himself?It's perfectly normal to use the army's supply unit to do some food trading... So with Luo Yaoguo's continuous supply to the "Soviet Area" of the Greater Xing'an Mountains, it is difficult for Wang Zhongyi's team to expand.

Because this army has affixed the trademark of "Red Army", but it does not do the serious work of the Red Army. Instead, it is keen to do some miscellaneous business with the Soviet Union on the opposite side.It is often possible to get some light industrial products from southern China to trade with Soviet businessmen on the opposite side of Heilongjiang, so now there is a small trade transfer station on the edge of Heilongjiang.A large area of ​​simple houses built of wood and a small temporary dock are built on the banks of the Heilongjiang River.Merchants from the other side of the Soviet Union and outside the Greater Khingan Mountains set up countless stalls in this small town that popped up suddenly, trading all kinds of goods, which amazed the crowd who had just arrived here Some of them were dumbfounded.

Even in the warm spring, this handsome man wears a leather jacket, which is a must-have for people in the Northeast who are away all the year round.There is a large temperature difference between day and night here, otherwise it is very easy to catch a cold when sleeping outdoors at night, and it is difficult to deal with people who have no medical treatment in the wild.At this time of day, many people took off the sleeves of their leather jackets and put them on their waists, revealing the long daggers stuck in their waists.These people were riding Liaodong steeds with long manes and untrimmed manes. They stood there constantly scratching their hooves, and they didn't know how long they had been waiting.Every man is carrying a Min 12 submachine gun made by Guangdong Ishii Arsenal, and a Mauser branded shell pistol produced by Hanyang Armory on his waist.It was obvious at a glance that he had a lot of background, but no one dared to go forward to strike up a conversation.

The one in the lead was actually a very short middle-aged man with fair skin, a neatly trimmed mustache, and two piercing eyes with a little fierce look.Beside him was a slender young man, wearing a cotton gown and a melon cap, who looked like a young master of a landowner.

"Mr. Yan, is this... really the Soviet District?" The short middle-aged man looked at the young man beside him with a surprised expression on his face.

The young man surnamed Yan chuckled: "Mr. Banyuan has been to other Soviet areas in the past? Do you think this place is different from theirs?"

That short middle-aged man is actually Seishiro Itagaki!Then the team he brought... Naturally, it is the special attack team directly under the Kwantung Army!As the most courageous villain in the Japanese army, Itagaki will be responsible for destroying the Siberian Railway in the Soviet Union this time!And that young man who is always cheerful is the "traitor" who is responsible for leading the way for the Imperial Japanese Army, the Kuomintang spy Wan Yanhao who is aliased as Mr. Yan!

"Itagaki-kun is an expert in China, so I'm afraid he doesn't know much about the Soviet Union, right? Right now, the Soviet Union is engaged in a new economic movement...that is to restore capitalism and take the capitalist road...you understand?" Wan Yanhao was still laughing. , using some new terms wholesaled from Luo Yaoguo to fool Seishiro Itagaki.

"Take the capitalist road? Isn't Stalin the one in power who takes the capitalist road? Then why does he still support our communists in Japan to oppose capitalism?" Itagaki shook his head in confusion and asked again : "Mr. Yan, when can we cross the river?"

Wan Yanhao took out a pocket watch from his pocket, looked at it, and said with a smile: "It's five o'clock in the afternoon, and when it gets dark at seven o'clock, there will be a boat to take you there... [-] kilometers away from the river is the railway line, If you are half-finished and return the same way, I will arrange a boat to pick you up."

"Then please leave to Mr. Yan." Seishiro Itagaki bowed solemnly to Wan Yanhao, then heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the wide river surface of Heilongjiang in the north.I silently pray in my heart that I can complete this road bombing mission and do my part for the Great Japanese Empire to win this war!He knows that only by defeating the Soviet Union can Japan force them to give up their ambitions for Manchuria, and then Japan can join hands with them to carve up China!

……

Late at night on May [-], [-] AD.

The Soviet port on the west coast of the Tatar Strait is now a huge barracks.Since this morning, more than 2 Soviet Red Army workers and peasants have arrived one after another.However, when these heroic Bolshevik fighters arrived at the Soviet port, they were all in a panic.Everyone was out of breath, and most of their military uniforms were soaked in sweat.These boys now have nothing but rifle bullets and some wet military uniforms!But considering that they came here from Khabarovsk (Khabarovsk) [-] kilometers away, they ran here on two legs... this embarrassment is understandable.

Thousands of residents of Soviet Port were mobilized organizationally in the past two days, put down their livelihoods, and prepared food and camps for the Red Army soldiers of workers and peasants who came from afar.So that these exhausted lads can eat a delicious hot meal, then have a good sleep, recover their physical strength and spirit, and go to Sakhalin Island across the strait to teach the Japanese devils a lesson!

But these Soviet boys who slept soundly, never dreamed that they would not need to take a boat to Sakhalin Island to teach the Japanese devils... because thousands of Japanese devils were already in Vani, north of the Soviet port, last night. Nuocun landed secretly.Killed every Russian he saw along the way, and quietly approached the Soviet port.Now these Japanese devils have taken control of the mountains northwest of the Soviet port, and established a secret artillery observation post on it!

The residential area of ​​Soviet Port is built close to the Tatar Strait. To the north of the residential area is a small bay, and the port is built on the south bank of the bay.Now more than 2 Soviet Red Army officers and soldiers are sleeping in thousands of tents set up on the open space of the Soviet Port residential area, and even the sentinel in charge of the sentinel is a little groggy.No one noticed at all that a huge Japanese fleet was slowly sailing in the sea east of Soviet Port.

This fleet is the Second Fleet of the Japanese Navy commanded by Lieutenant Admiral Yoshikawa Yasuhei.Their original mission was to land at the mouth of the Amur River and occupy Temple Street as a base.Then, with several first-class coastal defense ships as the main force, they marched along the Amur River towards Khabarovsk together with the Army's Second Division and Eighth Division.

In order to carry out this mission, the Second Fleet brought a total of eight so-called "first-class coastal defense ships".These old-fashioned warships are all armored cruisers built before the Russo-Japanese War, and most of them participated in the Battle of Tsushima.Although this kind of warship is completely outdated in terms of performance, they have large-caliber artillery of more than 200mm and thick armor protection, and their displacement is mostly around [-] tons.

Now the eight "first-class coastal defense ships" are slowly forming an artillery formation under the cover of night.Like the battleships when they bombarded the Vladivostok fortress on the 100th, they also lined up in two columns.The turret slowly rotated, and more than 203 naval guns with a caliber of 152mm and a caliber of [-]mm raised their barrels and pointed their muzzles at the residential area of ​​the Soviet port several kilometers away!A round of thick high-explosive shells was loaded into the barrel, and the gunners were eager to try, waiting for the command to fire.

The flagship of the Second Fleet is the "first-class coastal defense ship" Izumo. The commander of the fleet, Lieutenant Admiral Yoshikawa Yashei, is standing in the command tower, holding a telescope in his hand, pretending to look at the dark night sky.

"It's time to start! Work hard...to avenge His Majesty the Emperor!" Yoshikawa nodded heavily at the staff around him, and shouted the slogan of revenge for the Emperor, which also opened the prelude to the night attack on the Soviet port.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!..."

More than 100 heavy guns on the eight "first-class coastal defense ships" on the sea suddenly began to roar.Although it can't compare to the scene of the world collapsing when the battleship's main guns are fired.But these are 203mm and 152mm cannons after all!If it is placed in the army, it is almost equivalent to the sum of the heavy artillery owned by the four field heavy artillery regiments!And it also has a 203mm caliber heavy artillery that the field heavy artillery wing does not have!

Bursts of dazzling flames suddenly appeared on the sea, followed by bursts of deafening bangs!Almost in an instant, more than 100 giant artillery shells with orange-red tail flames flew over a short distance of several kilometers, and all of them fell like Thor's hammer, hitting the ground of Soviet Port hard!

The ensuing explosion began to pound the ground violently. This time, more than 2 Soviet infantrymen and thousands of innocent Soviet people were directly exposed to the huge shells spewed out by the giant guns of the Japanese warships!There is no cover, no cover, and no way to fight back!The lads who had been forced to march for four days had no weapons other than rifles and machine guns.

Fortunately, the pain of being hit by a 203mm shell is not...very long.Often before you have time to feel the pain, it has already been reduced to pieces!At this moment, the residential area on the south bank of the Soviet Port is hell on earth, oh, it is hell, there is no world... The huge 203mm shell exploded and formed a violent air wave, engulfing countless high-speed rotating shell fragments, flying in all directions at unpredictable angles , All of these are scenes that only exist in hell, how could they appear in the world?It seems that Soviet Harbor is experiencing a strong earthquake, and the ground shakes violently, as if the whole world has been distorted.All the houses have either collapsed or are falling.The people who survived for the time being didn't seem to know that they were dead. They held their heads in their hands and pressed their bodies close to the ground, shouting the names of God, Jesus, the Virgin Mary, Marx and Lenin, and praying These gods can perform miracles to save their souls and bodies.But what we wait for is often a huge shell that ends the pain!

I don't know how long it has been?The sound of the landslide and tsunami gradually faded away, and a few minutes later, with the last dull bang, this nightmarish bombardment finally came to an end.But the people who survived had no time to mourn the dead, bandage the wounded, and rejoice for their own luck.A new disaster is coming soon!

Snapped!Snapped!blah blah...

Gunshots rang out one after another.This is... the infantry attack after the bombardment. From the hill northwest of the Soviet Port, a Japanese detachment was under the personal command of Lieutenant General Inoue, the commander of the second division, and launched the first attack with the determination of 5000 people to attack at one time. , and the only onslaught!

Inoue personally witnessed the entire process of the shelling just now.Now he is standing on the high ground outside the Soviet port city, surrounded by a group of staff officers, quietly waiting for the plaster flag symbolizing the Japanese Empire to be raised over the Soviet port.Regarding the victory of tonight's surprise attack, he now has no doubts. The only regret is that the victory came so easily!How could an enemy that was completely exposed to the firepower of the armored cruiser's giant guns, without any fortifications or shelter, and was bombarded by more than 100 giant guns for an hour still have combat effectiveness?If the Second Division loses even this kind of battle, he, the division commander, simply commits suicide by harakiri.

……

Almost at the same time as the gunfire at the Soviet port, there was also a violent explosion on a railway bridge about 20 kilometers northeast of the Amur River (Heilongjiang).As a huge fireball soared, the Siberian Railway Bridge connecting the coastal areas of the Far East of the Soviet Union was finally cut off by Japanese secret agents!Only a few days after the start of the war, the balance of victory and defeat in the second Russo-Japanese War quickly fell to the side of Japanese imperialism!Another unprecedented victory of Japanese militarism seems to be within reach...

Chapter 0335 The Japanese-Soviet War ([-]) Fudge

It seems to be expected that once the Japanese-Soviet War started, the Soviet Union was defeated in a one-sided manner.Vladivostok, the first fortress in the Far East, made the Japanese battleships unable to fight back. I saw the majestic and dangerous fortresses turned into horrible ruins.The Japanese fleet was unscathed, and it is said that there were still zero casualties!

The Vladivostok fortress is like this, and the Soviet port near the Tatar Strait is even more tragic.The [-] Soviet Red Army, known as the elite, was hit by the heavy artillery of the Japanese armored cruiser in their sleep and suffered heavy casualties.Afterwards, it was the No. [-] elite Sendai Second Division in the Japanese army who came to cover up and kill them. Naturally, the whole army was wiped out again!It seems to be worse than that time of Zhalai Nuoer.After annihilating [-] Soviet troops and seizing Soviet Port, an important port in the middle of the Tatar Strait, it took five days for the Japanese Second Division and Eighth Division to complete the loading and unloading of all equipment and baggage.Then they marched along the road from Soviet Port to Khabarovsk.Arrived at the outskirts of Khabarovsk on May [-]th, while the Siberian Railway line that was blown up by Japanese agents was still under repair... Fortunately, Yegorov, who was guarding Vladivostok, was a famous general and knew the importance of Khabarovsk.In disregard of Stalin's instructions, the Vladivostok defenders of the two divisions, together with their equipment, were transported into Khabarovsk by train before the Japanese army reached the city of Khabarovsk. This made this important city on the Amur River have enough troops. Can stick to it.

Now that the battle has come to this point, laymen have also seen some tricks.It seems... this old man is really going to die.Let the little Japan clean up in a hurry, it is estimated that it will not take long, this Soviet Far East should become the Japanese Far East, right?Then, do we in China also want to take a ride and join the war to see if we can bring Mongolia back?Seeing the Japanese victories, and thinking of the Manchuria victory in April, more and more people were thinking about it, to the point where Sun Yat-sen wanted to recall Luo Yaoguo to ask what happened!

"Strike hard at the enemies and regain the lost ground!"

In Wuhan, this slogan became popular at some point.Moreover, every now and then, some old veterans who were sitting on the bench ran to Sun Yat-sen's official residence above Moshan, and talked in front of Sun Yat-sen about the principles of uniting Japan and resisting Russia.Everyone said that now is the best time, as long as Premier Sun ascends to the top, the army and the people of the whole country will be united as one, follow your old man to fight the Russian devils, and they will definitely defeat the Soviet Union and regain Mongolia. By the way... let Sun Yat-sen sit in Beijing The top chair inside!

But... there are quite a few people who oppose such a risky participation in the war.For example, Chiang Kai-shek, who has always had a fear of foreign countries, Xu Chongzhi, who is very busy with smoking beauties, Liao Zhongkai, a leftist tycoon who became the vice chairman of the National Government, and Luo Yiqun, the executive president who abuses good people.Almost all those in power don't want to fight, and those who are squeezed out to sit on the bench shout war slogans. This situation is somewhat strange.

What kind of plans are the dignitaries and dignitaries planning, even if they are ordinary people, they don't have any feeling.But regaining the lost ground or something sounds strangely elated.Ordinary people, who doesn't want their country to be strong and the map to look big?So during this period of time, newspapers of all sizes in the southern country also kept advocating war against Russia. Basically, only newspapers written in this way would be bought.Those anti-war newspapers such as the CCP's "Red Star Newspaper", "Ta Kung Pao" with a relatively calm view, "Shen Bao" which is not very good at making nonsense, and the "Central Daily" which has always been anti-Soviet. The sales volume of the peaceful "Lion Awakening Daily" has dropped by a large amount.On the contrary, there are a lot of tabloid newspapers that have never been very prominent. Taking advantage of this trend, their sales have increased sharply, and they seem to have signs of rivaling the big newspapers.

In short, the anti-Soviet trend in southern China has been instigated.

……

On the bank of East Lake in Wuhan, in Wang Jingwei's mansion, in the living room, there was a family banquet, full of delicious food and wine.Wang Jingwei and his wife, Chen Gongbo, Gu Mengyu, and old Japanese "friend" Inuyangyi were sitting together, chatting about some big business with relish.

It turns out that this Inukai Takeshi is a member of the Japanese House of Representatives, and he is also a veteran in Japanese political circles. He also has good popularity in Chinese political circles.This time, he was sent to Wuhan by Japanese Prime Minister Yoshiichi Tanaka to lobby the Kuomintang to support China's participation in Japan's war against the Soviet Union.In today's China, the Beijing government basically doesn't count... Although the national government still modestly claims to be a "local self-government regime", everyone knows that they are already the most critical political force in China.Without their support, the Beijing government would not dare to make any major decisions.

Quan Yangyi is now an old man with white beard and white hair. Compared with when he came back to China in the 13th year of the Republic of China, he is obviously much older.After exchanging pleasantries with Wang Jingwei and others, Inuyoshi smiled slightly, and got straight to the point:

"The photos of the Battle of Soviet Port taken by war reporters have been published in Japanese newspapers. It is said that there are photos of Russian invaders piled up like mountains. The scene is very miserable. In this battle, our army and navy coordinated a coordinated attack and wiped out more than [-] Russian invaders. Including innocent women and children of the Soviet Union)! And the loss of the imperial army is less than a thousand. After this battle, the overall situation of the second Russo-Japanese War has been settled, and the victory of the empire is no doubt. If your country wants to take advantage of this opportunity If Mongolia is to be recovered... right now is the best time! Moreover, Prime Minister Sun can also take advantage of the large army to go north to replace Zhang Zuolin, who has been unable to maintain the situation, and become China's well-deserved leader. In this regard, the entire empire is also happy to see it happen."

After hearing what Quan Yangyi said, Wang Jingwei frowned slightly, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.He is not a soldier, does not know how to fight, and does not know much about the real situation of the Japanese-Soviet War.So in this turmoil, he has not expressed his position yet, but is just waiting and watching.

"Mr. Quanyang, if our National Revolutionary Army takes advantage of the opportunity to go north to attack Russia and take down the Beijing regime, what will happen to Zhang Zuolin? What will happen to the Northeast?"

Before Wang Jingwei could figure out how to answer, Chen Bijun beside him couldn't help but interrupted.In Wang Jingwei's house, this elder sister is one-sided, she can make decisions for her husband no matter it is family affairs or state affairs.

Quan Yangyi naturally knew that Wang Jingwei was afraid of internal affairs, so he was not surprised at all. Instead, he smiled and nodded at Chen Bijun and said: "The special rights and interests of the Japanese Empire in the Northeast are naturally guaranteed by your party government...but the Feng family is not suitable for ruling anymore. Northeast. The empire hopes to have a prestigious and capable Kuomintang member like Mr. Wang to maintain the situation in the northeast and protect the interests of the empire."

"...This time, if Mr. Wang can promote the Kuomintang to send troops and finally recover Mongolia... In the future, the political leaders of the Kuomintang, except Mr. Hu Zhantang, should be Mr. Wang's turn? It may even surpass Hu Zhantang and succeed Premier Sun. Mantle, become the future leader of China, for this, the empire will also strongly support it!"

Wang Jingwei quickly waved his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Quanyang, don't be joking. I, Wang, can only rank seventh in the Kuomintang... Even if the Soviet Union regained Outer Mongolia in the Northern Expedition, it is not the one who made great achievements. Helping the soldiers? I’m afraid that Luo Fuwen will inherit the Prime Minister’s mantle..."
