The secret war is silent

As the successor of Neji Okamura, Lieutenant General Sonobe and Ichiro are not well-known figures in the Japanese military circles.

But the war madmen at the Japanese Army Base Camp are not stupid. Sonobe and Ichiro naturally have matching abilities.

It is said that he could succeed the commander of the 11th Army because he was recommended by the Chief of Staff of the Dispatch Army Seishiro Sakagaki.

Sonobe and Ichiro's character can be described in one word: stable.

Japan's mission is to expand its military preparations and resolve the war in China as soon as possible without letting the Chinese battlefield become a quagmire.

Japan wants to get a huge piece of the cake in the big game of world hegemony. If it misses this opportunity, it will take who knows how many years to get it, or even never.

bet!

Winning the bet is a great achievement, and Japan becomes one of the most powerful countries in the universe.

If you lose, the worst thing you can do is return to the main island. Anyway, it’s a sterile place. You don’t have anything you want, so what else can you do?

The sense of crisis and gambling nature of the islanders of this small country are deep in their bones.

Because of this, they are more likely to accept Westerners’ so-called survival philosophy and the law of the jungle.

The disastrous defeat of Okamura Neji last year was summarized within the Eleventh Army and the dispatched army staff.

They even conducted many sand table deductions, and basically concluded that there were no problems with the combat plans and tactics formulated by Okamura Neji. Even at the last moment, he decisively ordered a retreat and avoided greater losses, which still deserves credit.

If Okamura Neji had hesitated a little at that time, the Japanese army that broke into the deep defense of Xiangcheng would probably have been divided, surrounded and eaten.

In the "Winter Offensive" launched by the Chinese army later, the 11th Army did not even have enough troops to resist the opponent's attack.

It is not impossible to lose Jiangcheng, an important town in the Central Plains.

Therefore, when Sonobe and Ichiro took office, he personally met with the former commander Okamura Neiji and sincerely asked for advice.

Okamura told him that the Japanese army advanced very quickly at the beginning of the Xiangcheng Battle. Except for the national troops on the eastern front who were prepared, they failed to achieve the effect of a surprise attack.

The subsequent battle was basically as he expected, but he slightly underestimated the combat effectiveness of the national army.

He had never underestimated the opponent Xue Boling, but in the battle, the role of the commander only accounted for about ten percent at most.

This ten percent is very critical because it determines the outcome.

But the other 90% is the quality of the army itself, the quality of its soldiers, weapons and equipment, the ability of grassroots commanders, the time, location, etc.

Can a tiger command a group of sheep to defeat a group of wolves?

The tiger may have unparalleled personal combat power, but it can only represent himself. The combat power of a sheep cannot be compared with that of a wolf.

The wolf is as smart as the tiger. Who do you think will lose?

The existence of Xue Boling ensured that the national army had a stable command center, and this commander's outstanding performance during the Battle of Lanfeng proved that he was an extremely difficult opponent.

In this way, Neji Okamura will naturally not underestimate his opponent. He went through many war games before finalizing the battle plan.

Okamura Neiji also doesn't like to be greedy for credit and make hasty advances, because he has been in China for many years and knows that although this country is poor and weak, the real strength is not the advanced weapons, but the people.

This nation has so many talents that they seem to be inexhaustible. On the contrary, although Japan also claims to have a population of 100 million, how many can be called talents, and the success rate is even more incomparable.

Although Okamura Neiji was transferred back to his homeland, he had been planning a campaign against northwest Hubei, and his intentions were consistent.

That is the effective force to eliminate mountain cities.

The elite military is always born, either after years of hard training, or through continuous fighting on the battlefield.

If the will of resistance in Shancheng cannot be destroyed, it would be wishful thinking to quickly end the war in China.

He had no illusions that some people in the country wanted to negotiate peace with the Shancheng man. Especially, they also supported the Wang family to become a puppet regime, which was probably the most unacceptable to him.

Moreover, the country has also put forward such harsh conditions. I am afraid that no one except the profit-minded Wang family is willing to agree to such peace negotiation conditions.

Therefore, if you want to solve the China problem, there is only one way to defeat it with absolute force!

Only under this premise can we sit down and talk.

This coincides with Sonobe and Ichiro's ideas. The two had a great conversation, and Okamura Neiji was not stingy and told them all about the relevant combat plans and ideas he had formulated.

Without Okamura Neiji as their predecessor, it would be impossible for Sonobe and Ichiro to formulate a battle plan in a short time.

Okamura Neji had already done a lot of things for him. When he came here, Xiao followed the rules and picked up a ready-made bargain.

After summarizing the reason why Okamura Neiji returned with a huge defeat in the Battle of Xiangcheng, there was one question: intelligence.

There was a problem with the intelligence.

The information about the outflanking and sneak attack was detected in advance by the opponent. Without any precautions, they came to lure the enemy deep and catch the turtle in the urn. As a result, they suffered heavy losses, the attack was blocked, and their own tactical intentions were exposed.

Our secret communications were intercepted.

Interception means interception. This radio wave is not a fixed telephone line and can be controlled. The key is that the opponent has mastered the deciphering of one's own communication code.

In this way, all the secrets of one's side are exposed to the opponent's eyes. How to fight this battle?

Therefore, if this problem is not solved, there will still be no advantage in the next battle. Therefore, Okamura Neiji also formed his own professional code-breaking team, which is the "Miura" force.

In addition, a series of actions were also formulated with the goal of attacking the power of the mountain city government in deciphering secret codes.

The "Fox Killing" operation was planned and directed by the Kondo Agency under the personal care of Neji Okamura.

Unfortunately, the operation failed in the end, and one of the most elite intelligence teams lurking in the mountain city was completely exposed.

After Sonobe and Ichiro took office, in addition to adjusting the troops and changing defenses, they also summoned Kondo Keiichi and Miura, two people in charge of telecommunications and counterintelligence work, at the official residence.

"Miura-kun, how is the progress in deciphering the secret codes of the fifth theater of the China Army?" Sonobe and Ichiro, wearing home kimonos, first asked Miura Hiro.

"Reporting to your Excellency, Commander, although the China Army has improved their secret code encoding method, we have mastered its rules and will have results soon." Miura Hiroshi said, he is not affiliated with the 11th Army, but he was sent here by the superiors , he had to come, and besides, nothing excites him more than defeating his opponent on this special battlefield.

Although, he felt in his heart that the Chinese code encryption technology was more than three blocks worse than Japan's.

He was an expert in cryptographic communications like Ueki Ono, and he was selected to study in Germany for a year and a half.

I learned the latest German cipher encryption technology and brought back their latest rotor encryption cipher machine from Germany.

The current top-secret communication code of the Japanese Army Base Camp was compiled under his leadership.

The Chinese only learned a little bit from the Americans, and with good luck, they happened to decipher the code and learned their roundabout plan.

This time, he will not give the Chinese this opportunity.

"Really, how long will it take for you to master the secret code of the China Army?" Sonobe and Ichiro asked in a deep voice.

"About ten days."

"Okay, I will give you another ten days. After ten days of wisdom, I want to know the contents of all secret communications in the fifth theater of the China Army."

"Hai!"

"Kondo-kun, your plan to 'kill the fox' failed, what should you do next?" Sonobe and Ichiro almost asked.

"Please punish me, Commander."

"Punishment. If you wanted to be punished, you would have been punished long ago. What I'm asking you is, do you have any plans for the next stage?" Sonobe and Ichiro asked coldly.

A layer of sweat broke out on Kondo Keiden's forehead. He was really unlucky these days. The "Fox Killing" operation was going well, but bad news suddenly came. Kitagawa Yu was caught, and then the "White Fox" suddenly lost contact.

And the "Jiang couple" who were secretly detained by him disappeared from home overnight.

Then, they searched the entire Jiang family and discovered a secret passage leading to the outside world in the Jiang family's bedroom.

This passage must have been excavated recently.

Obviously the other party already knew that "the Jiang couple" were being controlled and threatened, so Jiang Xiaoyu might have been acting with them from the beginning.

The disappearance of "Jiang's" couple happened almost at the same time as the loss of contact with "Bai Hu", who was the contact person with Jiang Xiaoyu.

If the two were not related, he wouldn't believe it even to death.

Almost overnight, he became deaf and couldn't figure out what was going on in the mountain city.

These days, whole bunches of hair are falling out in a hurry. With his current hair volume, it is estimated that all the hair will fall out in a short time.

"Your Excellency Commander, I just received news about the next phase of the plan." Kondo Keiichi said after sorting out his thoughts.

"speak."

"Mr. Jiang in Shancheng has just secretly held a military meeting. The commander-in-chief of the fifth theater of the China Army also secretly went to Shancheng to attend this military meeting. We currently have no way of knowing the content of this meeting, but I have a bold judgment. ." Keiichi Kondo said in unison.

"Go on."

"I think the Chinese Army had a taste of deciphering our military's secret messages on the battlefield in Xiangcheng. This time, they might repeat their old tricks and send another 'X' team similar to the previous one to assist in the battle?" Kei Kondo Together.

"You're saying that the 'Fox of Military Command' is likely to appear on the battlefield again?" Sonobe and Ichiro understood.

"Yes, this is also a good opportunity to keep him." Kondo Kei said.

"Is this your plan?"

"Commander, this Luo Youning is in the mountain city. It is difficult for us to kidnap or assassinate him. But as soon as he steps out of the mountain city, it will be much easier. Moreover, it is not easy to grasp his whereabouts. Difficult." Kei Kondo said.

"Kondo-kun, are you sure he will definitely come?" Miura Koichi suddenly asked.

"Miura-kun is also interested in this person?"

"We are peers, and I really want to compete with him to see who is more powerful." Miura Hong said.

"Well, after I capture him alive and hand him over to Miura-kun, you can do whatever you want." Kondo Keiichi said with a smile.

"I'm looking forward to it." Miura Hongyi nodded slightly.
