Chapter 620 Japanese Counterattack
Especially not like it, and the distance between this fake "Fan Ye" and the real "Fan Ye" is too far, so it is naturally impossible to deceive Qin Wei. On the contrary, after being in the top leaders of the Republic of China for so long, Qin Wei also used the other party's "ignorance" to successfully draw out his origin... He has replaced Dai Li and become Kang Ze, who is actually in charge of the military commander! From this, Qin Wei also understood that Chiang Kai-shek's patience with him may have been exhausted, but he has never found a way to contact and understand the "hacker", so he decided to take the risk of using this method to determine whether the "hacker" really has such mysterious power. He can also be sure that if Chiang Kai-shek is sure that the "hacker" does not have much actual deterrence, he will definitely attack him. At that time, even if he can survive by chance, he will definitely have an ugly end.
In desperation, Qin Wei could only accelerate the implementation of his plan again. He contacted He Yingqin, Chen Cheng, Bai Chongxi, and some other people with greater influence, and took the initiative to find Lao Chiang and proposed a plan to directly attack the Japanese mainland and force the land to subdue Japan. Although Lao Chiang was unwilling to grant him military power, he could not withstand the temptation of defeating Japan. Moreover, the warlords and local factions in the country were unwilling to let the war continue, allowing Lao Chiang to continue to find opportunities to weaken them, and also gave him greater pressure. Therefore, after a period of consideration, Lao Chiang agreed to Chen Cheng as the commander-in-chief, Qin Wei as the deputy commander-in-chief, and Bai Chongxi formed a new expeditionary force for the Chief of the General Staff to attack the Japanese mainland.
Appoint it and the battle begins quickly.
Qin Wei ordered the air force to make a transition, intending to launch a bombing on Japan with the help of the sea cucumber that had just been occupied by **. The Japanese side was frightened and hurriedly drew air forces composed of German fighters from Taiwan and other places to make defenses. But at this moment, Dai Li's navy took the lead and gathered most of the warships to form an escort fleet to cover ** to launch a beach battle against Taiwan. Zhang Lingfu's troops served as the vanguard. With the help of British and American landing crafts supported by Britain and the United States and dozens of cloud bombs in the Air Force, it took less than half a day to easily break through the Japanese coastal defense and invade Taiwan.
The Japanese side knew that they were deceived. However, facing a large number of bombers from Sea Cucumber, they could only temporarily admit defeat and began to desperately arrange defenses in the local area. At the same time, Hirohito ordered Yamamoto Izuru to transfer back to the navy to protect the local area. However, just as the war between China and Japan was about to begin, Hirohito received news from the navy: the joint fleet could not return to the local area in a short time! Reason: The US Pacific Fleet was formed again and had set its target in Hawaii. It was in a trend of recapturing Pearl Harbor. In other words, the Americans dragged the Japanese navy for the Chinese.
When the Japanese government learned about this situation, it was panicked again. Hirohito ordered people to contact Germany and Italy, hoping that Germany and Italy could organize an offensive to restrain the energy of the Americans and eliminate the threats faced by Japan. But Germany and Italy were also powerless at this time. Although they defeated the Soviet Union and obtained most of the Soviet Union's resources and industries, these industries had a great bonus to the army. The bonus to the navy was minimal. At this time, because they had entered war mode for many years, the Americans had built nearly 200 aircraft carriers alone. Now that the other side suddenly made efforts, Germany and Italy could not cope with it. At most, they could only support a few more new jet fighters to protect the airspace for the Japanese.
The performance of Germany and Italy made Japan very dissatisfied. In the eyes of the Japanese, when the Germans faced the huge threat from Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union, they first took Siberia regardless of the long journey and shared the huge pressure from the Soviets for the Germans. Then, they attacked Egypt and India for a long-distance expedition, and took Suez, a strategically significant canal for Germany and Italy, and at the same time disrupted the British strategic rear and greatly supported the Germans' offensive on the front line. But now, they need the strong help of European allies, but these allies almost ignored them and only let them face the pressure from China and the United States alone. How could they feel?
But no matter how dissatisfied the Japanese, there is no real friendship between countries. Moreover, Germany and Italy are about to fight with Britain and the United States at this time, but they are actually making great efforts. It is impossible to strengthen much strength to restrain the energy of the Americans... The Americans are so powerful that they can support two battlefields at the same time. What can you do?
Hirohito and others were full of concern and were willing to transfer the Japanese troops scattered around the country back to their homeland to help with defense, but they were worried that it would make the territory that had been seized unstable, and they were very reluctant to give up those places. But at this moment, something unexpected happened: China demanded negotiations!
Qin Wei sent people to make a request to the Chinese sending troops hiding in Shanghai: to exchange Siberia for a three-month peace period.
This incident shocked the Japanese and was puzzled. But they couldn't bear to leave Siberia. Even though Siberia had actually been isolated from Japan because of the fact that they occupied the Far East, they were still unwilling to give up this land. Although it was vast and sparsely populated, it was rich in resources. The most important thing was that land was more than 10 million square kilometers and as big as dozens of Japans... How could the Japanese who lived on the island for thousands of years and had enough of this narrow land restriction give up such a large area of land? And getting rid of these, Hirohito, Ishihara Kanir and others were also a little uneasy: the Allies have now
The real force began to exert force, and obviously, the opponent's strength was very strong enough to compete with them. Moreover, the Chinese had launched an attack on Taiwan, with fierce offensives and rapid attacks. I believe that Taiwan would be completely captured in no time. At that time, with Taiwan, Ryukyu's air base, and Shanghai Shenwei, Japan would face the bombing of the Chinese Air Force... Will Japan be defeated? If it is defeated, the territory they seized in Southeast Asia, India and other places will probably be taken back by the allies. In that case, Japan would have spent several years in vain, but nothing was obtained... except Siberia!
Siberia is the territory of the Soviets. If it were not for the emergence of the Axis powers, the Soviet Union would have been the public enemy of the Western powers. Therefore, even if the Axis powers were defeated by the Soviet Union, which had already suffered a great loss of strength, would definitely become the target of British and American attacks after the war. If Japan is more active at that time, even if it cannot own the entire Siberia as it is now, it may not be impossible for it to occupy a vast enough land in Siberia.
Furthermore, even if the Chinese agree, the Chinese will keep their promises? That's Qin Wei. That's Chiang Kai-shek, not a good person.
Therefore, the Japanese side rejected China's request.
So, the Chinese Air Force began to launch bombing on the Japanese mainland from three directions. The Japanese side tried their best to resist. But not long after, they were sad. The fighter troops composed of the latest jets supported by the Germans were used by Qin Wei to introduce an ambush circle with a large number of "B-29" super air fortresses and "Hellcats", as well as the latest "BMW" fighters as bait. The losses were heavy. Until this time, the Japanese remembered that the Chinese also had German jet fighters... At that time, they were seized by the Chinese when they were in Siam.
The new fighter suffered heavy losses, and the Chinese suddenly took out dozens of German jet fighters, as well as hundreds of "Mortang" fighters supported by the Americans. The Japanese could barely maintain the air defense line and could no longer effectively stop the Chinese bombing. As napalm bombs fell on the Japanese archipelago, which was mainly composed of wooden houses, the Japanese people began to cry. The pressure on the Japanese government was also getting greater and greater.
Hirohito and others finally realized their limitations as an island country. They were powerful and almost invincible outside, but they could not protect their locality. Hirohito wanted to force the recall of the joint fleet that was blocking the Pacific Fleet and defending the Japanese territorial waters, but was blocked by Ishihara Kanir. Ishihara Kanir pointed out that even the navy returned, it would have no effect. Because the navy's aviation troops had no choice but to face the Chinese German jet fighter, and the navy's shells could not hit the sky, and they could not stop the Chinese bombing at all. If the combined fleet was withdrawn from Hawaii and other places in order to deal with the Chinese, then the Americans would successfully regain a series of islands they had finally seized. In that case, the Japanese mainland would probably face no longer the Chinese ones, but the joint efforts of China and the United States.
Hirohito was persuaded by Ishihara Kanir, but he really didn't want to be nervous all day long by the Chinese bombing. So after some conspiracy with his subordinates, he decided to withdraw the remaining Kanto army from Liaoning as a condition in exchange for the temporary suspension of the Chinese.
The Japanese's plan was very cruel. Because they had been driven out of Heilongjiang, Jilin, and even many Kwantung Army were captured by the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army. In the northeast, they only had a piece of land like Liaoning. Even such a place was left without their control due to the intervention of the country. What they could currently retain were Shenyang and Lushun. It is conceivable that in time, the entire Liaoning would be taken down by the country. Even if they wanted to withdraw, they would not be able to withdraw. Therefore, they simply took advantage of the conflict between Chiang Kai-shek and the country to give these territory to the Kuomintang first, so that the Kuomintang would fall into a battle with the country, so as to disperse the pressure on themselves.
Of course, Qin Wei could see the cruelty of the Japanese move, but he had no choice. Because the Japanese accurately grasped the key points of Chiang Kai-shek. How could a person who thought about "rest the country first to fight against foreign countries" and a person who was as deep as the sea of enemies as the sea, allow ** to develop their own strength calmly? So, the bald man was trapped very easily. In this way, before ** began to enter major cities in Liaoning, Chiang Kai-shek ordered the Eighth Route Army to withdraw from Khalkha and not stay in the northeast. ** began to create friction, and as Chen Yi and others raided and occupied Chita, seized this city with an important strategic position in Siberia and had a certain industrial foundation. The intensity of Chiang Kai-shek and others to create friction was also rapidly increased...
Chiang Kai-shek's behavior was unanimously condemned by the whole country, but Chiang Kai-shek didn't care at all. But he didn't expect that just as he focused on internal strife, the Japanese began to fight in a hurry... Yoshio Shinozuka from North China and Shunrok from Shanghai were all preparing to counterattack. Qin Wei told him this information, but unfortunately, he was not only not valued, but also was scolded for nothing, and was finally bombarded out of the chairman's residence and was again removed from his post as deputy commander-in-chief of the New Expeditionary Force.
Then, Yoshio Shinozuka and Shinjiro Hata suddenly commanded the army to launch a counterattack. North China, Henan, Shanxi and other places were successively lost. Hu Zongnan, Tang Enbo and others were caught off guard and lost consecutively; Central China, Shinjiro Hataga re-captured Nanjing within half a month... (To be continued...)
