Chapter 327: The Nervous Hata Shunroku

~8 min read 1,490 words

While the Nanjing Command was deliberating on matters concerning Han Fuqu.

The Japanese Army Pingjin Area Army and Central China Area Army also received news transmitted by frontline units.

In the Far East, the Nanjing Command, the First War Zone, the Third War Zone, and the Fifth War Zone.

In recent days!

Radio communications had almost fallen into silence.

This suddenly made the little devils nervous... Could it be that the Nanjing Command was plotting some major move?

Because!

According to the Japanese Army's understanding of the Nanjing Command, under normal circumstances.

The radio communications of the several war zones under the Nanjing Command would not be like this.

"You don't know, it's so tantalizing."

Speaking of this, Deng Xihou muttered, unable to recall the name: "What was it called again!"

Yu Hua, standing to the side, smiled slightly: "It's called Zheng Zhong!"

The two of them spoke on the phone immediately!

Apart from the German-style Adjustment Divisions under the Nanjing Command, the combat effectiveness of the Sichuan Army units was also extremely formidable.

Deng Xihou and Pan Wenhua both received telegrams from the Nanjing Command.

"Not many!"

For example, the little devils' sneak attack on Pearl Harbor!

As he spoke, Pan Wenhua looked at Deng Xihou.

The Japanese Army's Special Higher Police also focused on monitoring the Sichuan Army's radio stations.

Several war zones had fallen into silence!

Especially the Sichuan Army!

This unit had caused very serious damage to the Japanese Army in the Second War Zone and the Seventh War Zone.

Speaking of this, Deng Xihou paused, picked up his water cup, and took a drink of warm water first to moisten his throat.

The two of them consulted for a moment!

They roughly concluded that it must be the Third War Zone under Gu Mosan and the Sichuan Army 23rd Group Army.

"What is this called?"

"I could clearly remember this name just a moment ago."

They all began working overtime to monitor the radio stations of the Sichuan Army, the Third War Zone, the Fifth War Zone, and even the Second War Zone.

"I was a bit distracted at the time, I only heard that the name contained the character 'shi'."

"I had a Special Service Company under Yu Hua cooperate with a small unit of the 18th Group Army."

"Successfully rescued this... whatever expert!"

For this reason!

Regarding the Sichuan Army units!

"Specially engaged in intelligence work!"

Among the armies of the Nanjing Command, the Sichuan Army was the Japanese Army's number one formidable enemy.

"This belongs to top-secret information."

"Can you finish what you're saying before you go drink water!"

The Nanjing Command held a meeting to discuss.

"Intelligence capabilities have been significantly improved."

At the same time!

However, many little devils were still quite fearful of the Sichuan Army now.

On the way to Pearl Harbor, for dozens of hours, the little devils' Navy kept all radio communications silent.

That is!

At present, his Central China Area Army had six divisions under its command.

"You really hit the nail on the head, kid!"

Only when there is a major operation will military radio communications fall into silence.

Deng Xihou clapped his hands suddenly, "Right!"

Strengthen the construction of city defense fortifications, and strengthen communication and vigilance in all regions.

On the Chuan-Shaan Highway!

In a small county town under Guangyuan, Sichuan Province.

Pan Wenhua, who was on the side, saw that Deng Xihou hadn't finished speaking and was gulping down water again, so he grinned and said: "Old Deng!"

The Sichuan Army of the Seventh War Zone had blocked the Japanese Army's 10th Army for so long; if it weren't for the Shanghai Expeditionary Army's flanking maneuver.

"Specially targeting the intelligence of my Republic of China Army for monitoring and investigation!"

The remaining three divisions were maintaining such a vast occupied area, and their troop strength was indeed a bit tight.

"Last time... Wei Lihuang of the Second War Zone even specifically contacted me and the Commander-in-Chief of the 18th Group Army."

Now!

Like the 18th Group Army and the New Fourth Army, they liked to use Movement Warfare to annihilate the enemy during movement.

Deng Xihou grinned and said: "Sigh..."

Hata Shunroku immediately sent a telegram to the Japanese Army along the Taihu and Wuhu line.

"Brother Yu!" Deng Xihou looked at Yu Hua: "Look at the telegram from the Nanjing Command."

"Do you know something?"

Those two old Japanese devils knew very well that this unit was extremely formidable at Movement Warfare.

If the Sichuan Army really concentrated its superior forces to attack his occupied territory.

"It's called Zheng Zhong!"

They must be plotting some major move!

In this era!

All units of the Sichuan Army, the Third War Zone, and the Second War Zone, as well as all Sichuan Army division and brigade-level radios, had all gone silent.

"Oh my... this guy, when he met with me at the time, mentioned that our frontline troops had suffered a defeat."

At the same time, they ordered the Puppet Army units in various places to assist the Imperial Army in maintaining the occupied territories.

After Hata Shunroku's order was issued, the Japanese Army stationed in this area acted as if facing a formidable enemy!

Especially after experiencing the months-long bloody battle of Songhu, although the Japanese Army had received reinforcements.

Pan Wenhua said from the side: "Ever since this Nanjing Command established the Central Statistics Bureau and the Military Statistics Bureau."

The content roughly stated that the Sichuan Army had taken the initiative to expose the Han Fuqu defection incident, for which the Nanjing Command granted commendations.

They believed the Sichuan Army understood the big picture and cared for the overall situation, which was worthy of praise.

They were told to be on high alert and to guard against a Sichuan Army counterattack at all times.

"Have the Sichuan Army and the 18th Group Army provide assistance!"

They knew the Sichuan Army's powerful combat record!

The Japanese Army dared not underestimate them, especially Pingjin Area Army Commander Terauchi Hisaichi and Central China Area Army Commander Hata Shunroku.

Upon hearing this!

After all!

He cast his gaze toward Yu Hua: "Brother Yu!"

"You just said the name Zheng Zhong, and I remember that you were with me in the Seventh War Zone at the time."

Deng Xihou smiled awkwardly: "I will finish it all in one breath now."

"The military and political bigwigs in Hankou had long known about this secret plot by Han Fuqu."

This highest military conference in Bianliang was specifically to punish Han Fuqu, and they hoped the Sichuan Army would keep it a secret.

"At the time, Wei Lihuang even specifically instructed that the fewer people who knew about this, the better."

In the Pingjin Region and the Songhu Region, the Japanese Army's intelligence departments, as well as the Special Higher Police.

The 10th Division might not be able to break through the Sichuan Army's defensive line!

This also made the entire Japanese Army in the Songhu Region aware that within the Republic of China Army.

"Last time!"

All forces were pulled back, occupying large and medium-sized county towns, while abandoning all small cities.

"I heard Bai Zhuge mention it, saying that the higher-ups had already established some kind of office."

Meanwhile!

Moreover, they dared to launch counter-charges with heavy troop groups!

After Hata Shunroku learned of this, he was in a very bad mood.

They would likely launch a counterattack toward the Taihu Region to relieve the pressure on the Fifth War Zone.

However, three of those divisions had now had their forces drawn away to confront the Republic of China Army in the Fifth War Zone.

Radio silence!

To the current Japanese Army, this meant that the Sichuan Army units, along with the several war zones under the Nanjing Command.

"Not many people know that Old Deng sent someone to meet up with Zheng Zhong, right!"

"Zheng Zhong told me that he was acting under orders to establish our own intelligence agency!"

Pan Wenhua saw Yu Hua mention the name Zheng Zhong just now.

"Now that you mention it, I do recall something."

Hata Shunroku was indeed somewhat worried that the Sichuan Army's counterattack would succeed.

"During the Xinkou Campaign, the retreat was a bit slow, and I got trapped in the occupied territory."

In the Second War Zone, the Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army once captured Zhuozhou and launched a counterattack against the Pingjin Area Army.

Everything was included in priority monitoring, with monitoring carried out in two shifts; the machines never stopped, and the people never rested.

"It's just that our intelligence work is not done well; those little Japanese devils specifically have the four major intelligence agencies: Mei, Lan, Zhu, and Ju."

"Why can't I remember it at this moment!?"

Deng Xihou frowned slightly and stared at Yu Hua: "Confess honestly!"

"Where did you, kid, find out about this?"
