After the meeting ended, the high-ranking generals went to do their own things.
"Hey, Okamura-kun, please wait a moment!" Yasuji Okamura walked out of the meeting room and was on his way back to the intelligence department when he was suddenly called by Hiroshi Yamazaki from behind.
"Chief of Staff Miyake! Is there anything?" Okamura Ningji bowed respectfully and asked.
Although Hirotomi Yamamoto's evaluation in the army was somewhat mediocre, and it was rumored that he relied on the financial background behind him to sit as the chief of staff of the Japanese pirate army, Hirotomi Yamamoto supported Itagaki Seishiro, Seidon Taro, and others to plan and launch this Northern Incident. He actively participated in various activities related to the Northern Incident. He was also a supporter of Okamura Yasuji and played a major role in the development of the Japanese pirate army.
In addition to the strict hierarchy of the Japanese society, Okamura Yasuji, as the deputy chief of staff, was very respectful to Yamaiya Hiroshi.
"Does your intelligence department have any information about the Spring City incident?”Hiroshi Yamaya, Seishiro Itagaki, Taro Shien, and others had been active in the intelligence front for a long time and were very sensitive to intelligence.
Okamura Yasuji nodded." It's a pity that we've lost contact with all our spies in Spring City. It's as if an iron curtain has enveloped Spring City. The secret service in Mukden has also lost contact with Spring City."”
" This Spring City incident is very strange. Do you think it was done by the Northern Region Army of Ha City?" Hiroshi Yamamoto let out a breath.”
After all, only Ma Shan and Feng Hai's National Salvation Army were left in the 3 Northern Region counties. They were still fighting back, and there were about 20,000 of them.
Okamura shook his head." We have a lot of informants in Ha City. After the Spring City incident, I also asked the Northern Region Army in Ha City about their movements. All the intelligence sources showed that it was definitely not them."”
"Well, if that's the case, we can only deploy the troops to Gongzhu Ridge just in case. It's troublesome to mobilize 20,000 people.”" I'll have to trouble you with the information, Okamura-kun!" Hiroshi Yamaiya shrugged.”
"Chief of Staff, you're being too serious! Everything is for the Great Wei Pirate Empire!" Okamura Ningji stopped in his tracks and bowed 90 degrees respectfully to Hirotomo Yamamoto.
Hiroshi nodded in satisfaction and muttered,""I wonder how's the discussion going between Lord Tufei and the little Emperor Pu Yi.”
Okamura smiled." Doihara-kun will definitely bring the Urabe back. The Japanese Empire needs a puppet emperor and his puppet country. Doihara-kun values this more than any of us."”
"When the Spring City incident is resolved, you should go to Jiangnan and make a name for yourself!"”
In response, Okamura Ningji just smiled and said nothing.
Itagaki Seishiro returned to the country to report on his mission, Dohiro focused on the establishment of the puppet state of the Northern Region, Taro Shien completely ruled the Northern Region for the Great Japanese Empire, and carried out the transfer of the Japanese people to the mainland. Only Okamura Yasuji had free time left in the Japanese intelligence department.
In order to divert the international alliance's attention from the incident in the north, the secret operation in Jiangnan had to be put on the agenda.
Of course, if the Great Qian Army of the Great Qian government was as vulnerable as the Northern Region Army, Okamura would not mind expanding the war.
………………
While the outside world was in disbelief because of the Battle of Spring City, Xue Lin was also looking at his mission rewards.
The mission to recover Spring City had not only given him five lottery chances and two mysterious silver treasure chests, but it had also upgraded Xue Lin's level from major to lieutenant colonel. He could now recruit 3,000 Red Alert soldiers from the Red Alert System.
Xue Lin calculated that the next attack on Spring City would be between ten to twenty thousand and forty to fifty thousand people. There would also be heavy artillery, tanks, and aviation units. Xue Lin felt that he should leave at least a thousand people as technical troops, especially the aviation and tank units.
In this case, the light infantry would only have 2,000 Red Alert soldiers. With a configuration of 1, Xue Lin could recruit about 10,000 ordinary soldiers to form five light infantry regiments, as well as independent artillery, tank units, communication units, engineering units, and so on.
Moreover, they had seized a lot of military supplies this time, such as the Japanese military trucks and trains, as well as the Type-92 infantry cannon. The combat laboratory's combat vehicle factory could analyze and replicate the real thing. With this military truck, the 1.5-ton Krupp 75mm cannon could be towed away, greatly improving mobility and transporting troops. It was just that the performance of the Japanese's products was a little poor.
After some calculations, Xue Lin quickly got his subordinates to put the expansion of the army on the agenda. He did not know when the Japanese would come. He had more than 10,000 people in his hands. He still had some confidence in dealing with the Japanese pirates.
After dealing with some military matters, Xue Lin picked up the battle report on the table that he hadn't had the time to read. In fact, the system had already given him the battle report of the Spring City Battle, but Xue Lin preferred to read the battle report collected by his subordinates.
The bandit alliance army had more than 300 casualties, of which 230 had died. If it weren't for the artillery advantage and Chen Zhen's command, they would have collapsed long ago.
On the other hand, the death toll of the Japanese pirates was even higher. Because of Xue Lin's order not to seriously injure the captives, the heads of the captives were chopped off if they were slightly injured. The total number of Japanese pirates killed was 960, and more than 1,700 captives were captured. Among them, more than 500 were lightly injured, and more than 400 were missing. Most of them had fled south.
The 1,700 captured Japanese pirates were all pulled to Ma 'an Mountain to mine. Coincidentally, the Red Alert base found a few shallow gold mines in Ma' an Mountain, giving Xue Lin the opportunity to skin them alive.
They had seized 2,700 Type 38 rifles, 16 light and heavy machine guns, 20 mortars and grenade launchers, and only two complete cannons. There was also a large amount of military supplies stored at the Spring City train station, all of which were prepared by the 3rd Brigade to attack the National Salvation Army in Ha City.
Putting down the battle report, Xue Lin pondered for a while. He knew that with the appearance of the Northern Battlefront Army, he would have to face the most severe test! More than 60,000 Japanese pirates in the south were eyeing the north at any time. The most important thing now was to quickly increase their military strength!
Taking a deep breath, Xue Lin said to Xue Bai,""White Snow, open the lottery system. I want to draw!”
"Good luck, Commander!”
Because it was very important, he said it three times!
