    Peiping. North China Front Army Headquarters.

    Five days have passed since the Lunan Battle, but the atmosphere in the entire Beiping City is still extremely tense!

    This is not only reflected in the North China Front Army Headquarters, but also in the entire city of Beiping.

    Although there were various restrictions in the previous Beiping City, they were basically concentrated at night. During the day, some checkpoints were set up at the city gate, but there was nothing else.

    However, due to the tense atmosphere in the front army headquarters these days, the entire city of Peiping has been very depressed. A large number of Japanese and puppet patrols are constantly patrolling the streets during the day, and a curfew is implemented at night.  .

    The atmosphere in the North China Front Army Headquarters is equally tense!

    Since this battle not only killed an army lieutenant general, but also lost two important military towns, even though Sugiyama Moto's qualifications were there, he was still severely reprimanded by the base camp.

    And after being scolded, Sugiyama Gen will naturally not make it easy for the officers below him. In the past few days, more than one Japanese officer has been severely criticized by the Commander. Even the Chief of Staff was scolded yesterday.

    No wonder His Excellency Sugiyama Moto is so angry, mainly because the pressure from the base camp and His Majesty the Emperor is too great.

    According to the order from the base camp, he was required to eliminate the main force in the Sulu war zone at all costs and avenge the imperial army who died in the battle. At the same time, they were asked to snatch back the body of Washijin Jinhei and transport it back to the country for burial.

    On July 7, the second anniversary of the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, under the order of Sugiyama Gen, a joint meeting attended by all senior generals of the North China Front was held in Peiping.

    In addition to Sugiyama Gen, the meeting was attended by Umezu Yoshijiro, the commander of the First Army stationed in Shanxi, Odaka Kamezo, the commander of the 12th Army stationed in Shandong, and Hasunuma Pan, the commander of the Mongolian army stationed in Saibei.  The division commanders, brigade commanders and heads of intelligence departments near Peiping were also asked to attend.

    After everyone arrived, Sugiyama Yuan said in a deep voice: "Before the meeting begins, the chief of staff will read out an order from the base camp!"

    Okabe Naosaburo immediately stood up, took out a document from the folder, and read aloud: "Order: From now on, appoint Sakai Hoji as the commander of the 21st Division, Base Camp, July 3, Showa 14."

    Then Sugiyama Gen stared at the Japanese general wearing the uniform of an army lieutenant general and said: "Sakai-kun, please say hello to everyone!"

    "Hai!"

    Then the Army Lieutenant General stood up and said: "Your Excellency Commander, seniors and colleagues, hello everyone, I am Hoji Sakai, I am new here, please take care of me!"

    Although Sakai Hoji behaved very modestly, everyone present knew that this person was not an easy person to get along with. It is said that in the 12th year of Showa, this person had a fierce quarrel with his commander, His Excellency Tojo Hideki, on the battlefield in northern Shanxi.  After a few months, he was finally kicked directly from the front line and returned to Manchuria.

    ¡°But I didn¡¯t expect that the base camp would ask him to take over as the commander of the 21st Division this time. It was really beyond everyone¡¯s expectations.

    But no matter what, the proper etiquette must be followed, so as soon as Sakai Hoji finished speaking, warm applause broke out in the conference room.

    ¡°Bah bang bang!¡±

    After the applause, Sugiyama Gen said in a deep voice: "The Battle of Lunan was a great shame for our army, and it was also a shame that cannot be washed away by the Imperial Japanese Army. The base camp and His Majesty the Emperor personally sent a telegram urging our troops to annihilate Zhi/Natsu.  Lu War Zone and retrieve the body of His Excellency Jiujin Qianping, do you have any good ideas?"

    At this time, Maj. Gen. Seiichi Kita, the person in charge of the Special High School who was sitting under Naosaburo Okabe, stood up immediately and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, according to the information obtained by the intelligence department, the body of His Excellency Washizu Jinhei has been sent to Suzhou by Li Guoyao.  The headquarters of the Sulu Theater, so if we want to retrieve your body, we must launch an attack on the headquarters of the Sulu Theater!"

    "Is the news accurate?"

    "It has been verified by our intelligence personnel, it cannot be wrong!" Kita Seiichi said hurriedly.

    "Hey, as long as those hateful people don't send the body of His Excellency Washizu Senhei to Chongqing or crush the ashes, we have a chance!" Sugiyama Gendao.

    "The Sulu theater headquarters is in the Yimeng Mountain area in southern Shandong, which is the territory of the 12th Army. As long as the imperial army concentrates its superior forces to attack the Yimeng Mountain area, there will be a chance to recapture the body of His Excellency Washijin Jinhei." Naosaburo Okabe said solemnly  road.

    Sugiyama Gen nodded and asked: "Does Okabe-kun already have a battle plan? If so, please tell me, please!"

    Okabe?Sanlang didn't dare to neglect, and immediately stood up and said: "Yimeng Mountain Area is surrounded by tall mountains. It is known as the 800-mile winding Yimeng Mountain and the towering Seventy-two Mountains. The Yimeng Mountain Area is mainly composed of Yishan Mountain, Mengshan Mountain, Beida Mountain, and Lushan Mountain.  Mountains such as Menglianggu, Yishan, and Menglianggu are composed of numerous hills. Yishan, Mengshan, and Lushan are all above a thousand meters above sea level. They have high mountains and steep slopes, steep ridges, continuous peaks, cascading mountains, steep cliffs, and rugged boulders, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack.  , forming a natural barrier to support/the rebels.¡±

    "It's certainly not easy for the imperial army to capture it, but it's also not easy for the troops to survive there. After all, the people in Yimeng Mountain are so poor that they can't feed too many troops. Therefore, I suggest that a survey be carried out on the entire Yimeng Mountain area.  A battle mainly focused on driving away the siege!"

    "Okabe-kun, please explain clearly how to implement your plan!" Sugiyama Motochi.

    "Hai!"

    Then Naosaburo Okabe stood up, strode to the hanging map of North China, and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, all front-line Imperial Army commanders, please take a look, this is the topographic map of the Shandong region."

    "Looking at Shandong, it is close to Henan in the west, the sea in the east, connected to Hebei in the north, and connected to Jiangsu in the south. Its geographical location is extremely important. Because of this, even the Sino-Japanese government troops had already evacuated Shandong as early as Showa 13  , but it still wants to come back, which shows how much the support/that government values ??this place."

    "Looking at Shandong Province, Mount Tai is in the middle, followed by Yimeng Mountain and Xiong'er Mountain to the south. Surrounding it are Dezhou, Qingdao, Rizhao, Zaozhuang and other places suitable for farming. It can be said that as long as we control these peripheral counties, we will be able to  Controlling the economic lifeline of Shandong region."

    "The main reason why the imperial army is passive at the moment is that the rebels have placed their base in mountainous areas that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, while their main forces are constantly penetrating into the plain areas.  /That person can concentrate heavy troops to attack any stronghold and city of the imperial army at any time, but the imperial army can only passively defend, exhausted, and eventually the entire front is in danger"

    Before he finished speaking, Sugiyama Yuan nodded and said: "Yo Xi, this analysis is very reasonable. The defeat of the imperial army was not due to strength, but because we were simply unable to defend every county in an all-round way, and any  When a county is attacked, troops need to be mobilized for reinforcements. It can be said that the whole body is affected by one move. How can it be possible to fight well if the person is leading the way? I just don't know how Okabe-kun plans to solve this matter!  "

    Okabe Naosaburo immediately said: "Since this/that army cannot be completely eliminated, I suggest that all the resisters in Shandong area be driven to Yimeng Mountain or Xiong'er Mountain first, and limit their scope of activities to a small area.  Within an area, we will then mobilize heavy troops to carry out key siege while conducting irregular raids on these mountainous areas until they are all wiped out."

    "If you follow your plan, your plan to recapture Washizu Senpei will probably come to nothing. After all, your plan period should not be too short!" Sugiyama Gendao.

    However, Naosaburo Okabe smiled and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, if you are worried about the order from the base camp, there is no need to!"

    "What's the meaning?"

    "Your Excellency, Commander, the base camp certainly hopes that the imperial army on the front line can recapture the body of Washizu Senpei, but it is not necessary to recapture it. There are several issues that need to be considered!"
