Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 545

Chapter 545 The old devil's sinister thoughts

The battlefield that had been fought fiercely for half the night miraculously returned to calm during the day.

Ushijima Sadao, who received the news of the defeat of the 36th Infantry Brigade at dawn, was surprisingly not angry. On the contrary, he had a calmness that even he had not expected. He waved his hand and ordered all artillery units to stop the meaningless shelling. The act of consuming ammunition.

If any Japanese saw the corners of the mouth of the top commander of the Japanese Army on the Jiashan Front hidden in the darkness, they would be surprised to find that the corners of the Lieutenant General's mouth, whose facial muscles have become flabby, are turned up.

Facing this night attack that failed despite using more than 40 artillery pieces, consuming 3,000 rounds of artillery shells, and investing nearly 4,000 infantry, is this lieutenant general actually smiling? What the **** is this? Could it be that he was driven crazy by the continuous losses?

No one can see through this person's true thoughts except himself.

Only the Japanese Army Lieutenant General knew that from the beginning, he did not have high hopes for this night attack.

The Chinese were able to resist for a whole week under his all-out attack, and for three consecutive days launched night attacks from all parts of the defense line, causing huge losses to the division. His commander's talent and will were already the best choice, how could he face this? How can such a powerful enemy relax its vigilance?

The reason why they pretended to readily agree with the opinions of several subordinates was probably due to the desire to give it a try, and there was also the dark intention of not wanting those **** in the Sixth Division to have an easy time.

As the three main divisions of the Tenth Army's attack this time, the 114th Division is a special division, the 18th Division is a division that was reorganized after being cut down due to this war, and the Kunisaki Detachment borrowed troops from the Fifth Division. Yes, only the Sixth Division is a permanent division. Regardless of its reputation or division ranking, the Sixth Division is ranked No. 1 in the Tenth Army.

In this world, strength speaks for itself. As the main force among the main forces, the Sixth Division is naturally superior to all other divisions. The other divisions who know that their strength is not as good as the Sixth Division are awesome. When coaxed, they were naturally submissive. Even if Hisao Tani had the same military rank as their division commanders, and he would occasionally sound commanding, they would listen to him calmly.

But things are so strange. When the strong Tenth Army successfully completed the beach landing and planned to complete the strategic plan formulated before the war, a small city became a roadblock for the 100,000-strong army.

That's all. No matter how weak the giant beast of China is at the moment, there are still a few capable people. But no one expected that while the 114th Division and the Kunisaki Detachment were beaten black and blue by the Chinese, the most powerful Sixth Division would become the most miserable.

I don't know if the Sixth Division was specially designed to attract the hatred of the Chinese. It set a trap in the city at all costs and disabled the 13th Infantry Brigade under its command. It also sent sharpshooters to lurk out of the city to bring down the arrogant Hisao Tani. A shot to the head.

To be honest, at the moment when he heard the news, Ushijima Sadao's face was full of grief. At the same time, the little devil holding the trident in his heart seemed to be dancing. If he didn't have enough self-control, the little devil wiggling his buttocks hard The demon almost shouted "Oye!" through his mouth.

Those arrogant idiots in the Sixth Division are no longer able to survive. If the Tenth Army still wants to make a difference on the Chinese battlefield, who else can we do except the 18th Division under his command?

That is, Ushijima Sadao, who was so dark in his chest, never imagined that after giving this unfortunate kid from the 6th Division a blow, those Chinese people would actually give him a kick in the leg from the 18th Division. Broken to pieces.

Ushijima Sadao, who has entered his sixtieth year, has been ups and downs in the officialdom for forty years in his life. His position has been transferred from a military commander such as a captain to a military instructor in mainland China. He stayed dormant for several years and then was promoted to become a brigade commander, and then became a lieutenant general. The position of regimental leader was transferred to the reserve force, and this time it was activated again. It can be said that there have been several ups and downs. What kind of storms have you not experienced?

Naturally, he would never be willing to capsize on the small boat of the Chinese battlefield. With his current strength, he was determined not to be able to chew this hard nut in front of him. If he didn't want to become the unlucky guy Ushijima Mitsuru who had to leave his job, he would Can rely on 'internal potential tapping'.

Let those **** of the Sixth Division die. The weaker they are, the more important it will be to highlight the importance of the 18th Division, which still maintains most of its strength.

As long as the war is not over, the North China Expeditionary Army Headquarters will not touch him easily. Changing generals before the battle is a taboo in military art.

This kind of thought of consuming the strength of friendly forces to highlight one's own importance is called dark. Naturally, it can only be rotten in his own belly, even if he is as close as a nephew, he will not talk about it.

The battle situation at night was roughly what Ushijima Sadao expected. The 36th Infantry Brigade sent troops under his order to attack in the night and failed. However, to his surprise, the Chinese had better teeth than he imagined. Among them, 600 The elites were actually swallowed up by the Chinese, leaving some residue falling out.

Fortunately, Ushijima Sadao was secretly glad that these unlucky guys blocked the gun.

However, the battle loss of 600 people is not enough. The best thing is to let these unlucky guys take the lead in the next attack battle and lose another one or two thousand people. That would be enough to ensure that the infantry brigade under the Sixth Division, which still had combat effectiveness, would be completely put to rest without putting the blame for the defeat on him, the supreme commander.

He is a lieutenant general division commander commanding tens of thousands of troops. He is not a nanny. He cannot give correct tactical guidance on a local battlefield with a width of more than ten kilometers. Those are major general brigade commanders and colonel commanders. What you need to do.

It can be said that although the old devil Ushijima Sadao has a sinister mind, his mind is definitely bulling and buling, and he has played the trick of "dead Taoist friend but not dead poor Taoist" to the extreme.

Masahori Tanigawa of the 36th Infantry Brigade, let alone not knowing the evil thoughts of the Lieutenant General, even if they knew, I am afraid that under the military rules that crush people at the senior official level, they would have no choice but to become cannon fodder. Make this old guy.

But life is so wonderful. Ushijima Sadao, who thought he had a thorough understanding of people's hearts and humanity and controlled the rules of officialdom, did not know that it was precisely because of his little thoughts that the 36th Infantry Brigade lost nearly 600 people and died in the battle. A little-known person.

Although this 'little man' has a military rank of just a second lieutenant, only the two captains of the 36th Infantry Brigade and the retired Ushijima Mitsuru know this second lieutenant, whose pseudonym is Hosokawa Harafuji. His real name should be Read it backwards.

Fujiwara Kawanishi!

In Japan, there are not many people named Fujiwara.

The most terrible thing is that Fujiwara Kawanishi, who had to hide his real name when he entered the army, thought about it on the back of his heels and knew the trick in this.

If this Fujiwara was the Fujiwara who had controlled the Japanese royal family for nearly 300 years, and his best operation was to marry the eldest daughter of the family to the emperor to become the queen, and then his own grandson became the emperor, Ushijima Sadao, the Army Lieutenant General, would probably be frightened to tears. of.

The Fujiwara family is one of the most prominent nobles in Japanese history.

But unfortunately, the stubborn young Japanese Army second lieutenant who stood in the pond facing an old man and a young man and still did not kneel down to beg for mercy and thought about killing him was the direct eighth son of the third generation of the Fujiwara family.

After the Japanese royal family gradually gained power a hundred years ago, the power of the great nobles in Japan was reduced, and they would naturally not be willing to do so. The royal family can take the lead, but the younger brothers can't just sink in!

It is the most common practice for Japanese nobles to continuously send their direct descendants to gain experience in the military and political circles, and eventually occupy high positions. Even the powerful Japanese royal family has nothing to do about it.

The sedan chair must be carried by someone, and the people who carry the sedan chair for the Japanese royal family must not be this group of nobles. Without them, the status of the royal family, which maintains the supreme imperial power by promoting the aristocratic hierarchy in Japan, will not be stable.

It was against this background that this direct descendant of Japan's most famous nobleman entered the Sixth Division as a second lieutenant.

Originally, with the strength of the Sixth Division, it would be extremely safe for Fujiwara Kawanishi to serve as a second lieutenant staff officer at the division headquarters. However, no one expected that the ambition of this outstanding son of the Fujiwara family would not be satisfied with the position of staff officer at the division headquarters. After being plated with gold, he would return to China. He wanted to make contributions on the frontline battlefield.

This is the pride that belongs to outstanding people. He has to make his own decisions about his life.

So, he died, in the hands of a Chinese "coward" who could even scare him to tears with the sound of a gunshot.

The cold and pale corpse of the proud and outstanding third-generation eighth son of the Fujiwara family was placed in front of Colonel Tanigawa Masanori, acting commander of the 36th Infantry Brigade.

Contrary to the mood of His Excellency the Japanese Army Lieutenant General who was smiling quietly in the military tent, the Japanese Army Colonel was dumbfounded!
