When the news of the 130th independent mixed brigade suffering heavy casualties reached Lieutenant General Yoshika Ryosuke, he was so angry that he almost broke the table.
His original plan was to let the 130th Brigade try to attack the Chinese army. It would be better if they could take advantage of it. After divining, they would stabilize their position and wait for the arrival of the follow-up troops.
Not only did he not gain any advantage, but he also suffered heavy casualties. Even the field artillery unit was taken out. This was hard for Lieutenant General Yoshika to accept.
The exasperated Lieutenant General Yoshika Ryosuke sent a stern instruction telegram, ordering Major General Naojiro to immediately reorganize his troops and head to the Recha border to look for new fighter planes.
"Useless, Tugu Naojiro is a useless person. Eight thousand people attacked a position of two thousand people, but they actually suffered heavy casualties and even lost a field artillery unit.”Lieutenant General Yoshika said angrily.
The Chief of Staff said worriedly,""Major General, it seems like we can't judge this Chinese army based on our previous judgment. Their combat strength is definitely world-class. According to the telegram, the other party actually sent out a bomber. The 130th Brigade suffered such a huge loss because they were caught off guard.”
"Humph, it's all because of Lu Hang and that bunch of trash. If they were a little stronger, would we need to be so passive?”Lieutenant General Yoshika said with dissatisfaction.
There were also many internal contradictions in the Japanese army. I won't describe them here. Anyway, those contradictions.
Hearing this, the chief of staff nodded in agreement. If Lu Hang could obtain air superiority, they would not be so passive. Now, the entire Kwantung Army had lost all face. The North China garrison command even sent a message asking if they needed reinforcements.
Such a telegram made General Ueda Kenyoshi furious. He even issued a strict order that if he could not eliminate the Chinese, he would commit suicide to thank the Emperor.
Major General Naojiro, who received the telegram, was also furious. Damn Yoshika Ryosuke, if you have the ability, come to the front line yourself.
It was not a militia, it was obviously an elite force that was stronger than the German Machinists. No, the German Machinists were nothing in front of him.
You don't believe me? Have you ever seen a country's army in the world that assigned light machine guns and submachine guns to the platoon? In addition, each platoon had five mortars. This kind of firepower configuration was not even comparable to a battalion-level unit.
Also, I'm an independent mixed exploration team. I'm not under your direct jurisdiction. You don't have to lecture me like a grandson. Who knows, when the team is expanded, we might be on the same level.
It couldn't be helped. After suffering such a huge loss on the battlefield, Major General Naojiro knew that someone had to take the blame. He naturally knew what Yoshika Ryosuke was thinking.
Major General Naojiro was not to be trifled with. He immediately ordered a telegram to be sent to the Kwantung Army headquarters, claiming that Lieutenant General Yoshika Ryosuke was afraid of death and delayed the battle. He played with the lives of the Imperial Army soldiers and blindly commanded without regard for the actual situation on the battlefield.
General Ueda Kenyoshi, who received the telegram, also felt a headache. However, he knew that changing generals at the last minute was a taboo in military affairs. He suppressed the telegram and sent another one, telling Major General Tugu Naojiro that the Heavy Artillery Brigade would soon arrive at the front line. He hoped that with the help of the Heavy Artillery Brigade, they could take down the Chinese position as soon as possible.
On the other side, Lieutenant General Yoshika Ryosuke also received a telegram from the Kwantung Army. The content was probably hoping that the two sides could communicate calmly and not sulk over the lives of the Empire's warriors.
To be honest, Lieutenant General Yoshika Ryosuke was a little stunned when he saw the telegram. What did he mean? What was sulking?
Lieutenant General Yoshika Ryosuke only came to a realization when the chief of staff beside him carefully reminded him. At the same time, he roared angrily,"Are you saying that the old man, Naojiro, was the snitch?”
"This is very obvious. Major General Tugu Naojiro, relying on his old experience in the Army University, rarely takes us juniors seriously.”The chief of staff said with an expression of understanding.
Upon hearing this, Lieutenant General Yoshika Ryosuke's expression turned ugly. He suddenly remembered that although Naojiro's military rank was low, he was a senior in the military academy. According to the unspoken rules of the military, he was considered his senior. He was reprimanding him as a junior, which naturally made Major General Naojiro unhappy.
"Bastard, a major general actually dared to report to a lieutenant general and even to the headquarters.”Lieutenant General Yoshika Ryosuke roared angrily.
However, when he thought of Major General Naojiro's seniority, Lieutenant General Yoshika sighed again. He should not have let him come in the first place.
"Major General, what do we do now?" The chief of staff asked in a low voice.
" Let him be. Send a telegram and let him do his best. We'll continue to wait for the Heavy Artillery Brigade.”Lieutenant General Yoshika said weakly.
"Hey!"
