Two days later, Tokyo Haneda Airport.

After sending Aimo Seizo to the side of the runway, Okamura Yasuji said: "Aimo Jun will have a smooth journey."

"What?" Yusu Jingsan was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He always thought that the two would go back to Peking together, but he didn't expect that Okamura Yanji had other arrangements. He asked again, "Your Majesty General, don't you go back to Peking?"

Okamura Yasuji nodded and said, "I have to wait for the next flight to Shinkyo to meet Umetsukun."

Atsushi Mi said in surprise: "Before you return to Tokyo, have you already gone to Xinjing to have in-depth exchanges with You Umetsu, and you have already agreed?"

Okamura Yasuji said: "The agreement was settled at that time, and Umetsu-jun agreed, but now there are new changes? This time the base camp not only changed, but also directly transferred five divisions from the Kwantung Army. I was afraid that Umetsu-jun would become resistant, so I used the excuse to hold on to the 3rd brigade of the field heavy artillery, the 2nd brigade of the Cavalry, and the 3rd brigade of the chariot. In this way, the strength of the 1st brigade of the 1st brigade will be greatly reduced and will seriously affect our next plan."

Although Hideki Tojo adopted Okamura Yasuji's suggestion, Japan is an imperial country, and not all major national affairs are decided by the Prime Minister.

So in the end, it became a compromise.

The Japanese base camp drew five divisions from the Kwantung Army, together with the newly formed ten divisions, a total of fifteen divisions, of which eight divisions were allocated to the Southern Army to continue to implement the previously formulated plan, and the other seven divisions were allocated to the North China Front Army to carry out the large-scale mobilization proposed by Okamura Yasuji specifically targeting the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army.

This means that the Kwantung Army became the last loser and five divisions were drawn away at once.

As the commander of the Kanto Army, Umezu Mijiro probably said that I had a mom criticism at this time.

"This is true." You Jing Sanshen said with satisfaction, "If the 3rd Field Heavy Artillery Brigade, the 2nd Cavalry Brigade and the 3rd Carriage Regiment were detained by the Kwantung Army, then the 1st Division would no longer be a real heavy-equipped division, but just an ordinary three-unit elite division."

By the way, the 1st Division originally had four infantry regiments under its jurisdiction.

However, two years ago, the Japanese base camp adjusted the army's organization, and all divisions abolished the infantry brigade system and changed it to an infantry regiment under the division headquarters and three infantry regiments under the infantry regiment.

The 1st Division was also drawn away an infantry regiment, but soon a heavy artillery brigade, a cavalry brigade and a chariot regiment were added, and it was reorganized into the first heavy-armed division of the Japanese army.

During the Kwantung Army's special exercise last fall, the 1st Division was at the forefront.

Okamura Yasuji and Southern Army Commander Suichi Teraunuchi visited the scene to observe the large exercise. So after learning that the base camp intended to build the Kwantung Army into a strategic reserve team and was preparing to draw elite divisions from the Kwantung Army to support other war zones, the two of them set their sights on the 1st Division at the same time.

After some intense competition, Okamura Yasuji had the last laugh.

However, Okamura Yanji was still worried that Mijiro Umezu would be discounted, so he decided to fly to Shinkyo again and have a long talk with Mijiro Umezu to ensure no trouble.

After a pause, Aoshima said again: "Is there anything else that you need to remind me?"

Okamura Yasuji waved his hand and said, "I have told you everything I should say. You just need to follow the instructions. Besides, I will be able to go back soon and it won't take too long."

"Hayi." There are three final essences and three preludes.

"As soon as I returned to Peking, I started to organize the 3rd Division of the Tank."

"Yeah." Okamura Yasuji nodded happily, "I'll give you the preparations for the 3rd Division of the Tank."

"Hayi!" Arimo Seizo paused his head at Okamura again, then turned around and boarded the transport plane gangway. The ground crew quickly removed the gangway, and the transport plane began to slide.

...

At this time, in North China.

The leader of the cavalry group of the Mongolian Army, Xiyuan Ichice, drove more than 200 kilometers from his garrison Guisui to the Mongolian Army Headquarters located in Zhangjiakou.

Nishihara Ichitao thought the headquarters was going to supplement the 4th Cavalry Brigade, which was missing.

The 4th Cavalry Brigade was ambushed on the last time she went south to reinforce the Henan battlefield, and has not been rebuilt since the entire Feiyundu army in northwest Shanxi was destroyed.

So until now, the cavalry group has only one cavalry 1st Brigade.

As soon as he walked into the office of the commander of the Mongolian army, Ichiro Nishihara, Ichiseo Nishihara couldn't wait to ask: "Kun Qida, has the base camp issued an order to rebuild the 4th Cavalry Brigade?"

Ichiro Shida smiled and handed over a document on the table.

"What are you doing?" Nishihara Ichicea took the document in confusion.

But after reading the documents, Nishihara Ichise was inexplicably surprised.

"Adapted the 3rd Division of the Tank?" Nishihara Ichisuke said in disbelief, "Nada-kun, is it true or false?"

Nishihara Ichicea originally thought that he was just going to rebuild the 4th Cavalry Brigade, but he didn't expect that he would adapt the Cavalry Group into the 3rd Chariot Division. This was like buying a lottery ticket and winning a heavy prize!

Ichiro Nada said: "The documents are all here, can there be fake?"

"That's great." Nishihara Ichisei waved his fist vigorously and said, "This is the first chariot division of the Imperial Army on the Chinese battlefield. Now the Imperial Army can give Fu Yisheng a little color."

"I will talk about the matter of dealing with Fu Yisheng later." Ichiro Shida smiled and said, "The most urgent task is to adapt it first."

After a pause, Ichiro Shida continued, "Tomorrow morning, Issue Jun will come to Zhangjiakou in person to discuss the adaptation with us."

Nishihara Ichisei lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Qida, can you understand the bottom first? How many tanks will there be? I heard that the 1st Chariot Division and the 2nd Chariot Division have medium-sized, light tanks totaling more than 400!"

"I really don't know this." Ichiro Shida spread his hands and said, "You'd better wait for Atsushi Jun to come and ask him. He must know the details of this adaptation."

"Okay, then I'll ask when the Mo Jun arrives."

Nishihara Ichisato was so itchy that he could only endure it.

...

Northwest Shanxi, Wanmadu Arsenal.

The brigade commander was in the bullet workshop accompanied by Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and Wang Ye and others.

But I saw that the workers were loading bullets again, and these workers were extremely focused on their work, and the arrival of the brigade commander and other groups of people did not attract their attention.

It was not until he got closer to the brigade commander that he realized that this was not a worker, it was clearly a Japanese prisoner of war.

The brigade commander was shocked at the time and said, "Xiao Wang, can the arsenal not recruit workers or what? How do you use Japanese prisoners of war to work? This is Japanese prisoners of war. What if they do sabotage?"

"Brig Commander, you're too worried." Wang Ye smiled, "These Japanese prisoners of war are so obedient."

Li Yunlong smiled and said, "Brig Commander, the workers have to pay wages. If these Japanese prisoners of war come to work, we can save a lot of money without paying a penny of wages."

"You two have many ideas." The brigade commander said angrily.

Wang Ye smiled and said, "Brig Commander, the efficiency of using Japanese prisoners of war is much higher, because Japanese prisoners of war have generally received primary and even middle school education, and their learning ability and comprehension abilities are much better than those shoulder poles. I don't know that they are just local workers, so the completion rate of work is much higher."

The brigade commander said: "We still need to take safety measures."

"That's sure." Li Yunlong said, "There is a patrol team to inspect and supervise continuously."

While speaking, a team of soldiers with live ammunition came from the opposite side of the cave.

Seeing the brigade commander Li Yunlong and his party, the soldiers stood attentively and saluted flat.

The brigade commander replied with a military salute, turned his head and asked Wang Ye, "Xiao Wang, how many bullets can you reload in a day now?"

Wang Ye said: "Now, you can reload 20,000 bullets and 500 shells a day. When the production capacity of the acid factory increases, you can reload 100,000 bullets and 2,000 shells a day!"

Li Yunlong smiled and then said, "In just two months, we will have another five million bullets and 120,000 shells. At that time, we will no longer be afraid of fighting attrition with the Japanese."

The brigade commander asked with concern: "Can gunpowder be supplied with so many bullets and shells reloaded?"

"Brig Commander, gunpowder is not a problem at all." Li Yunlong smiled, "There is a nitro earth mine next to our arsenal, and it is a large nitro earth mine. Director Wang said that it will take us fifty years."

"That's how it is." The brigade commander's eyes lit up and he said, "Then I'll ask the Taiyue Military Region, Taihang Military Region and even the entire Shanxi, Hebei and Henan Military Region to send the collected bullet shells and shell shells."

"No problem." Li Yunlong said with a smile, "No matter whether it is a bullet shell or a shell shell, as long as it is a copper one, we will accept it as a single order, and two bullet shells can be replaced with a recharged bullet."

"Two bullet shells exchange for one bullet?" the brigade commander cursed, "You want to get a discount if you are a damn person?"

"Brig Commander, this is really not a discount for our old Li." Li Yunlong said with a smile, "Our arsenal needs to reload bullets. Although there is no need to pay the Japanese to pay for wages, engineers and technicians still need wages, and it is not low. You can't let our Northwest Military Region pay for the brothers to replenish ammunition, right?"

"No." The brigade commander snorted, "You can't take advantage of your brothers."

"Brig Commander, I can't make the decision." Li Yunlong said, "I have to discuss it with Lao Ding and Lao Kong."

"Make the decision? Did I let you do it?" the brigade commander snorted coldly and said, "I am still the commander of the Northwest Military Region and the Northwest Column of Shanxi. Is this your turn to make the decision?"

"Uh..." Li Yunlong was speechless and careless.

After visiting the bullet reloading workshop, the brigade commander said to Wang Ye with emotion: "Xiao Wang, the deal you made with Yan Xishan is so worth it. With our arsenal, it will take less than a year. Our entire Shanxi-Hebei-Hebei Military Region will no longer have to worry about ammunition supply, and we will no longer have to sting and sting when fighting with the Japanese in the future. We can open it and fight!"

Speaking of this, he said: "This will completely change the entire battlefield ecology!"

...

Meanwhile, in Xinjing.

Looking at the outline of Changbai Mountain in the distance, Okamura Yasuji said in a deep voice: "Mijinjun, if you cannot occupy the mountainous areas in northwestern Shanxi and annihilate the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army as soon as possible, the battlefield ecology of the entire Shanxi and even the entire North China will be completely reversed, and the North China Front Army will be unable to move forward at that time."

"Okamura-kun, is it so exaggerated?"

Umezu Mijiro smiled and said, "A brigade of the Eighth Route Army is really so capable?"

"This is not an ordinary brigade." Okamura Yasuji said solemnly, "The 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army is nominally a brigade, but in fact its strength is more than a group of troops."

"Of course, this is not the most terrible."

He paused and said, "The most terrifying thing is the potential for war in northwest Shanxi."

"The potential of war?" said Mijiro Umezu. "I really can't imagine how great the potential of war can a poor mountain valley in northwest Shanxi?"

Okamura Yasuji said: "What if there was a large arsenal in the poor mountain valley in northwest Shanxi?"

"Arsenal?" Meijiro Umezu frowned, "The Eighth Route Army has the ability to build a large arsenal in the poor valleys in northwest Shanxi? Can't it?"

"I was incapable," Okamura said, "but not long ago, the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army made a personnel transaction with Yan Xishan, and exchanged the Taiyuan Arsenal, Taiyuan Steel Plant and more than 200 senior technicians from Yan Xishan for more than 200 senior technicians from the Taiyuan Arsenal, Taiyuan Steel Plant and Taiyuan Power Plant."

"So that's it." Umezu Mijiro said sternly, "That's true that you can't be underestimated."

"Yes, no matter how much you pay attention to this matter, it's not too much." Okamura Yasuji said, "The armed forces under the leadership of the Communist Party, whether in terms of discipline, training, tactical literacy or fighting will, are far better than the warlord armed forces of the Central Army of China and various places. They have now replaced the Central Army of China and become the primary threat to the Imperial Army."
