"Then send the Buddha to the west! I remember that after they were arrested, they were detained until now because they were unwilling to join the secret service headquarters. That is admirable."

"This matter is easy to handle. I will make a call to Wang Ji'an. You will meet with them. Everyone must write a letter of guarantee and be willing to join the East Asian Institute of Political Economy. Then you write a handwritten application and release your wishes. People have noted it."

"I took the letter of guarantee and the application to go to the section chief of Gang Village. After he signed it, Wang Ji'an could go through the release procedures. The Japanese are now in a panic. How can they be in the mood to take care of these people?" Chen Mingxiang said.

The power and relationship have reached a certain level, and the problems that often seem difficult to solve are now just a sentence.

Chen Mingxiang also gambled once. The bet is that Chen Gongshu is not a white-eyed wolf. He will surely receive a generous return for his efforts. Of course, he is not afraid of this guy playing tricks, dare to play tricks with himself, and want to clean him up. , The same thing is a sentence.

The US army’s attack on Guam, the largest island in the Mariana Islands, was much smoother than the attack on Saipan, the second largest island. In fact, this landing battle was almost the same time as the attack on Tinian Island, the third largest island in the archipelago. ongoing.

Let me talk about the Battle of Guam. It started on July 21 after thirteen consecutive days of heavy shelling and bombing. It seemed to be a positive response to Hideki Tojo's resignation.

The defenders of Guam, Japan, were the 29th Infantry Division of the Kwantung Army, the 48th Independent Mixed Brigade, the 10th Independent Mixed Wing, the 52nd Artillery Group, and the 54th Navy. The garrison, with a total of more than 20,000 people, is under the unified command of Lieutenant General Gao Pinbiao, the commander of the 29th Division of the Japanese Army, and Lieutenant General Hidera Ohata, the commander of the 31st Army, happens to be also in Guam.

On July 26th, Major General Shigematsu, the commander of the 48th Mixed Brigade, died in battle. On the 28th, Lieutenant General Gao Pinbiao died in battle. The battle lasted until August 10, and there was no hope for Hideo Ohata. Lieutenant General Liang sent a farewell telegram to the Tokyo base camp and committed suicide in the headquarters.

In this battle in Guam, the U.S. army itself killed 1,435 people and injured 5,648, while the Japanese army killed 18,560 people and captured 1,200. Fifty people.

The battle on Tinian Island was smoother than that. Here, Lieutenant General Kakuta Kakuharu, Commander of the First Air Fleet of the Japanese Navy, led 4,500 naval officers and soldiers, and the 50th Regiment of the 29th Division of the Japanese Army. The leader of the regiment, Keishi Ogata, and the first group of the 135th regiment of the 43rd Division, with about 4,000 people.

At dawn on August 2nd, Ogata Keishi Osa was holding a flag burning ceremony, because the wing flag was personally awarded to the wing captain at the imperial palace. According to the Japanese Army’s regulations, when judging the situation is critical, the wing flag should be burned. Can not fall into the hands of the enemy.

Then he led the last 1,000 Japanese troops and the temporarily recruited island militia to launch a suicide attack on the US army. Keishi Ogata was hit by a US army machine gun and died.

The commander of the Navy's First Air Fleet, Lieutenant Admiral Kakuhari Kakuda, ran out of the headquarters trench. After the North Korean US army threw a grenade and killed several US soldiers, he left the last grenade and detonated himself. The headquarters from the chief of staff to the staff committed suicide.

After the U.S. military captured Tianning Island on August 3, it began to repair the barracks base that accommodates 50,000 U.S. troops, built an extended airfield runway, and mobilized 15,000 U.S. Navy engineers.

A total of six airstrips of 2,400 meters have been built on Tinian Island, so that B-29 long-range heavy bombers can take off and land, and from then on attack the Philippines, the Ryukyu Islands, and the mainland of Japan.

The Pacific War of World War II also saw a major change. Allied bombers could bomb important facilities in Japan every day.

And when Tianning Island was captured, the third Hengzhou battle was about to start. If it was not fought again this time, the impact would be too great. Therefore, on August 2nd, Hengshan Yongzhong Will bring the chief of staff and the staff to come to the outside of Hengzhou City to personally command.

Not only that, in the case of severe downsizing of the 68th and 116th Divisions, in order to ensure that Hengzhou can be won, he mobilized the 58th and 13th Divisions to carry out To strengthen, the artillery units directly under the Eleventh Army were transferred over.

On August 4th, the third battle started, and there was a small accident in it. During the first two attacks on Hengyang, he was willing to use it because the captain of the first and third three of the 116th Division, the first three-fifth team, was willing to use it. The troops went to make a hopeless charge, causing a large number of casualties in the wing.

Some of the battalion commanders under the wing have changed four terms, but they have not provided any breakthrough for the wing’s offense. However, his actions were considered by the commander Yokoyama Yukoyama and the commander of the 116th Division Iwanagao to be highly motivated. , He submitted a report to the base camp for his promotion to the rank of major general, and the result was quickly approved by approval.

Because at this time, there was no vacancy for the position of brigade commander in the 11th Army's combat sequence. Heiichi Kurose, who was known as the general to death, continued to serve as the rank of major general in the infantry. The captain of the wing.

And Major General Shima Genyoshi, the commander of the 57th Infantry Brigade of the 68th Division of the Japanese Army, was killed by a bullet from the defending army on August 6th when he was supervising the battle on the front line. Therefore, on the 15th, Major General Heiichi Kurose succeeded as the head of the 57th Infantry Brigade. Of course, this was after the end of the battle.

"What are you talking about? The Special Intelligence Division of the 11th Army Command actually broke the military code of the Shancheng government?" Chen Mingxiang asked in surprise.

It was not the first time that he heard this name. When the Japanese army attacked Tanzhou for the second time, he learned about this institution from Shao Zuo of Gangcun in Jiang Xia. He also had a meal with the section chief Dazu Inoue. The news promptly issued an early warning to the 74th Army that was surrounded at the time.

"Yes, on the 23rd of July, their committee issued severe combat instructions to the 62nd, 79th, 37th, and 100th Army. The troops quickly broke through the imperial army's defenses and rescued the Tenth Army in Hengzhou."

"It's a pity that these orders were cracked by the Special Intelligence Division. In addition to reporting to the divisions and regiments, the headquarters of the 11th Army also reported to the dispatch army headquarters. When I went to Jiangcheng for a meeting, the Chief of Staff said this matter."

"The headquarters of the 11th Army has responded to this by adjusting the main forces of the 34th, 27th, 40th, and 3rd Divisions and setting up a blocking line on the offensive line. This military action to rescue Hengzhou will no longer work." Kawamoto Yoshitaro said with a smile.
