Chapter 313: You’re a whore and you still want to be a virtuous woman?
"How to fight? Mr. Qin, that is the 11th Brigade, a whole brigade. Even without the support of the Imperial Army, it still has nearly 10,000 people. Although it is a second-line force formed later, its combat effectiveness is not as good as the 4th Brigade."
"Even if you can trap the 11th Brigade in this place, what can you do?
As long as the 11th Brigade wanted, they could easily withdraw from Gucheng County and the Ping'an area.
The terrain here is not suitable for blocking, and you can't stop the 11th Brigade from retreating.
After the 11th Brigade withdraws from the mountainous area, does Mr. Qin want to take your troops to fight the 11th Brigade in the field?
Mr. Qin, the heavy artillery and tanks used in the last attack on the 4th Brigade are probably the only resources your Eighth Route Army has.
Even for us, our tanks are either in independent tank regiments or equipped at the division level.
Not to mention the heavy artillery, which is a front-level artillery. The entire First Army has only one heavy artillery regiment with eighteen large-caliber heavy artillery.
Although your Eighth Route Army has no shortage of basic light weapons and equipment, it even has a lot of mountain artillery and infantry guns.
But the heavy artillery is probably the only one used last time.
Although I don't know where you, the Eighth Route Army, got those heavy artillery, but even if you received supplies from the mountain city, the number of heavy artillery would definitely not exceed eight.
The number of tanks... Mr. Qin, after the last annihilation of the 4th Brigade, how many of your tanks were still able to move?
I don't believe that your Eighth Route Army has so many mechanical engineers that they can repair all those tanks in such a short time.
Therefore, whether it is your Eighth Route Army's heavy artillery or tanks, most likely they are all still stationed in the Shangdang area.
After all, the Shangdang area is now an important area of your Eighth Route Army. It has just been recaptured by your Eighth Route Army. If it is occupied by us again, it will definitely be a big blow to the morale and reputation of the Eighth Route Army.
In addition, there is not much easy road between Shangdang area and Ping'an County, and it is impossible for you to spend so much effort to transport heavy artillery and tanks here.
It is impossible for your officers to reveal all their wealth just for a safe county.
So this time Qin Jun definitely doesn’t have any suitable heavy weapons in his hands.
Also, in the Ping'an area, except for a few open areas near the county town, there are no other places suitable for tanks to move.
Besides, there is nowhere to hide nearby. If you, the Eighth Route Army, really send all the heavy artillery and tanks to Ping'an County, let's not talk about whether the terrain here is suitable for tank and heavy artillery operations.
As long as heavy artillery and tanks appear in the Ping'an area, once discovered, Yoshio Shinozuka will definitely destroy your heavy artillery and tanks at all costs.
Directly mobilize the air force to conduct a large-scale search of the Ping'an County area. Once tanks and heavy artillery are found, let the bombers bomb them.
Tanks and heavy artillery are not mortars or infantry guns that can be carried around by just a few people.
Once discovered by the Army Aviation, I can't think of any other outcome except being blown up by bombers.
Because the terrain in the Heian area does not have suitable places to hide heavy artillery and tanks.
Regardless of the purpose, your Eighth Route Army officers, that is, your superiors, Qin Jun, will never mobilize heavy artillery and tanks to Ping'an County to assist you in attacking the county seat of Ping'an County.
Even if you wanted to destroy the 11th Brigade, you would not send heavy artillery and tanks.
Because Ping'an County simply does not have the conditions to completely wipe out the 11th Brigade.
Without heavy artillery and tanks, Qin Jun, what can you use to annihilate the 11th Brigade?"
Murakuchi Saburo looked at Qin Yangming with disbelief, and then asked Qin Yangming back.
If the person in front of him was not Qin Yangming, Cunkou Sanlang would have wanted to take him to the hospital to see if there was something wrong with this guy's brain.
I actually came up with such a bizarre idea.
And completely annihilate the 11th Brigade?
Why didn't you say you wanted to annihilate the First Army?
Listening to what Cunkou Saburo said, Qin Yangming still looked at the map and spoke to Cunkou Saburo.
"Don't worry about whether I can completely wipe out the 11th Brigade. Just tell me, if I can completely wipe out the 11th Brigade, then is there a chance to gather Shinozuka Yoshio and Iwamatsu Yoshio and let Shinozuka Yoshio leave the First Army early?"
“I can’t guarantee… No one can tell what those bureaucrats up there are thinking.
If Shinozuka Yoshio has some connections behind him, or if Shinozuka Yoshio gives up some interests, then Shinozuka Yoshio may still stay in the First Army and wait for the war to end.
Mr. Qin, if you had completely wiped out the 11th Brigade, no matter what, the responsibility for the annihilation of the 11th Brigade this time would definitely fall on Yoshio Shinozuka, and Yoshio Shinozuka would not be able to get rid of it.
Such a big mistake... When other people were in charge of the First Army and served as commander of the First Army, even if they did not achieve any military merits, at worst they could maintain the status quo... But what about Yoshio Shinozuka?
Not to mention maintaining the status quo, not only did they lose the Shangdang area, but they also lost the 4th Brigade and the 11th Brigade. The troops of the two brigades, rounded up to an entire division.
The entire First Army consists of only three divisions.
Suddenly, one third of the troops were gone.
Even though the mopping-up operation initiated by Yoshio Shinozuka in the early stage did achieve considerable results, he did make some contributions.
However, this little bit of credit cannot offset the responsibility for the loss of Shangdang area and the annihilation of two brigades.
If Yoshio Shinozuka does not want to return to the base camp, he will be directly dismissed and investigated.
In that case, the family behind him would have to give up some of their interests, or Yoshio Shinozuka would have to find some new connections and continue to stay in the First Army, and then take advantage of the upcoming war to gain enough military merit in the war to offset the loss of time.
Of course, there is another possibility. After the 11th Brigade was completely wiped out, Yoshio Iwamatsu might think that the 1st Army no longer had any advantages and refuse to take over the 1st Army.
After all, Shangdang was gone, and two brigades were missing.
Almost more than half of the remaining troops were trapped in Zhongtiao Mountain, Jincheng and other areas.
It can be said that the First Army had become a complete mess at that time, and I'm afraid Yoshio Iwamatsu would not think of taking over this mess.
But this possibility is very small.
Because the officer observation group organized by Yoshio Iwamatsu was defeated, and so many officers were lost.
Although Yoshio Iwamatsu was not largely responsible, he was still responsible and at fault, and he also had connections behind the dead officers.
With so many people involved, Yoshio Iwamatsu also has to give an explanation.
Therefore, Yoshio Iwamatsu also needs military achievements to make up for his mistakes.
But if you want to gain military merit, you have to be sent to the front-line troops.
At present, the positions of the commanders of the various corps in China can be said to be one person per job. The job of Iwamatsu Yoshio is the First Army.
If he doesn't want to take over the First Army, then no one else will give up their positions to him.
Therefore, Yoshio Iwamatsu had no choice but to take over the First Army with a pinch of his nose.
However, taking over the First Army, even though the First Army was a mess, a mess also has its advantages.
No matter how bad a mess is, it can only get worse.
The situation was already a mess when Yoshio Iwamatsu took over, and it was Yoshio Iwamatsu's credit that the situation was turned around.
If the situation cannot be changed, then it is Yoshio Shinozuka who made the situation like this, and Yoshio Iwamatsu himself is not capable of changing the situation, so no matter how bad the situation is, it cannot be blamed on Yoshio Iwamatsu.
From this perspective, it is possible that Iwamatsu Yoshio will come and take over the First Army.
In short, all the situations I mentioned are possible... 40% to 60%.
There is a 40% chance that Yoshio Shinozuka will continue to take charge of the First Army until the end of the war.
There is a 60% chance that Iwamatsu Yoshio will take over and take some risks. If Iwamatsu Yoshio can turn the situation around, it will be a great contribution. Even if he cannot turn the situation around, or even makes the situation worse, it will not have much to do with Iwamatsu Yoshio.
If there is not much relationship, then naturally there is not much responsibility. "
"So Mr. Qin, this method of yours is just a gamble. You're betting that after you completely wipe out the 11th Brigade, Iwamatsu Yoshio will choose to take over the First Army, and Shinozuka Yoshio is willing to give up the First Army and honestly roll back to the base camp to be investigated."
“Although it’s 40% to 60%, the probability is still not small.
Besides, Mr. Qin, do you have the ability to completely wipe out the 11th Brigade? If you fight with all your troops and both sides are injured, what will happen even if you can defeat the 11th Brigade? "
"Mr. Qin, give up. Prepare according to my plan. After the war is over, help me kill Yansong Yixiong. Then I will let you take as much supplies as you can from Taiyuan City.
We can even give some non-metropolitan areas directly to your Eighth Route Army.
I had no control over other places in North China, but in Shanxi, the large cities belonged to us, and the rural areas and some small towns were all handed over to the Eighth Route Army.
All the weapons and equipment in those counties, as well as the Imperial Army, will be handed over to the Eighth Route Army. At the same time, we will be responsible for blocking the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army and the Central Army, and helping the Eighth Route Army occupy those areas as quickly as possible.
In addition, I will also disrupt the peace talks between the North China Front Army and the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army."
Saburo Murakuchi didn't want Qin Yangming to kill Yoshio Shinozuka before the war, nor did he want Qin Yangming to wipe out the 11th Brigade.
Although he was able to sell out Yoshio Iwamatsu, he was even willing to do so at any cost for his own benefit.
But he is still a Japanese.
If Qin Yangming were allowed to kill Yoshio Shinozuka, the situation in the entire Shanxi would instantly get out of control.
By then, the Eighth Route Army, which will have accurate information, will definitely launch an attack at the first opportunity.
Under such circumstances, their First Army is bound to suffer heavy losses.
So many soldiers...
You know, the main source of soldiers for the Osaka Brigade he wanted to form was to draw Osaka soldiers from other troops and then form the Osaka Brigade.
But most of those soldiers were stationed in the front-line troops, or even in areas directly bordering the Eighth Route Army's territory.
If the Eighth Route Army launched an attack at that time, there would definitely be a lot of casualties among the soldiers.
Without enough soldiers, how would he form the Osaka Brigade?
What's more, the entire 11th Brigade was wiped out... Nearly 10,000 lives were sold by him just like that... It would be fine if the benefits were enough, but selling the entire 11th Brigade would not bring him any benefits at all.
If Qin Yangming completely wiped out the 11th Brigade, it would only be beneficial to the Eighth Route Army and Qin Yangming, but for him, there would be no benefit at all.
So whether from the perspective of his own identity as a Japanese or from the perspective of his own interests, Murakuchi Saburo did not want to and was unwilling to help Qin Yangming wipe out the 11th Brigade and kill Shinozuka Yoshio.
However, in order to get Qin Yangming to help him kill Iwamatsu Yoshio, Murakuchi Saburo had no choice but to continue to increase the stakes and try to use other things to satisfy Qin Yangming.
"Fuck, you want to be a virtuous woman even though you're a whore?"
Listening to what Cunkou Saburo said and looking at the melancholy expression on Cunkou Saburo's face, Qin Yangming instantly understood what Cunkou Saburo was thinking.
It was simply that at this time he thought of his identity as a Japanese, and felt that it would be a bit unfair to his fellow countrymen if he sold out the 11th Brigade directly.
If Murakuchi Saburo was just a captured Japanese soldier, Qin Yangming could still understand Murakuchi Saburo's feelings.
But Murakuchi Saburo was not a captured Japanese soldier, but a guy who took the initiative to find him to trade.
You've sold so many damn things, and you still care about this?
Both Black Mountain and Kumamoto have been sold out, so now when it comes to asking Murakuchi Saburo to sell the 11th Brigade and Shinozuka Yoshio, he starts to hesitate.
Looking at the look on Sanlang's face at the entrance of the village, Qin Yangming said with disdain in his heart.
"Damn it, you're worried now. If you didn't want me to kill more of your people, what the hell were you doing before? Now you want me to stop, forget it!"
Although the price offered by Murakuchi Saburo was very tempting, it was still not as good as the price Qin Yangming asked for.
Qin Yangming also did not intend to give in.
Yoshio Shinozuka is doomed to be killed!
As long as Yoshio Shinozuka can be killed before the war begins or during the war, the situation in the whole Shanxi will change drastically. From then on, not to mention other places, the entire non-urban areas of Shanxi will probably fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army.
It is even possible to directly occupy the northern half of Shanxi.
If the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army is willing, then their Eighth Route Army can also help the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army to eliminate the Japanese devils in Jincheng and Zhongtiao Mountain areas.
Finally, they joined forces to attack Taiyuan. After taking Taiyuan, the Jinzhong area of Taiyuan was under the jurisdiction of the Jinsui Army, and the Zhongtiaoshan area of Jincheng was under the jurisdiction of the Eighth Route Army.
By that time, the situation in Shanxi would be able to affect the entire North China battlefield, and it would not be impossible to force the Japanese to withdraw from Shanxi.
