Chapter 41 Fukushima
When Major General Fukushima Anmashiro arrived at Xiongyuecheng Military Station, it was already dark. But for the reception of Yamaguchi's second doctor, it doesn't matter. What's darker than the sky is Major General Fukushima's face. This is the most terrifying thing. His boss, Colonel Ito, the head of the military station, has already committed suicide and apologized, but he doesn't know what the headquarters will do about him. Thinking of his wife and children at home, he doesn't want to commit suicide.
It is not far from the old Manchurian General Headquarters in Shifu to Xiongyue Castle in Gaiping, but Major General Fukushima really felt extremely difficult along the way. When he thought of the words Chief of Staff in the telegram, his face was hot. This was the dereliction of duty of the Second Staff Department and his own dereliction of duty. The losses of Xiongyue City's military station are immeasurable. The worst is that 60,000 shells and more than 9 million bullets became vanished overnight. This is the ammunition reserve for several battles. As the highest person in charge of the second part of the General Staff Department of the Japanese Intelligence Department, the actual final behind-the-scenes commander of espionage activities in various parts of Manchuria, this matter is the greatest ridicule of his ability.
Three days have passed since the raid, but the military station has not been cleaned up. Fortunately, the heavy rain on the 12th day caused the fire that had burned overnight to finally be extinguished. A lot of food was snatched out, and other materials were burned. Fukushima An was watching the huge craters left after the explosion of the ammunition depots in the center of the military station, without saying a word. Although the heavy rain from the 12th day delayed the attack, we can seize these time to transport ammunition from Japan to make up for the losses caused by the attack, such a huge loss may not be fully supplemented even if it is fully produced in China. Moreover, for the weak Japanese military industry in Japan, it is not easy to complete the production of such a large amount of ammunition in a short period of time, and even if it is completed, it will have a negative impact on the supply of ammunition in the future. After silently walking around the central site, he asked: "Has the horse thieves caught it? How did they come in?"
Seeing the major general asking questions, Yamaguchi Jiro immediately stood at attention and said, "Four cavalry squadrons have been sent to chase and suppress them, but the horse thieves fled into the mountainous area and escaped in the heavy rains these days. However, the 10th Division has sent a search team to search south from the line of Ximu Town and Xiuyan, so as to prevent the horse thieves from escaping north." Yamaguchi was very nervous when he said that the horse thieves escaped. Although it was not his fault, he was still afraid that Major General Fukushima Anmasaki was angry. Seeing that the major general did not scold him, Yamaguchi continued, "There are probably 100 horse thieves attacking outside. Twenty-nine horse thieves were found in the military station. There were also a few horse thieves who could not escape, so they pulled the explosives on their bodies together with the imperial soldiers... The jade was broken... They used yellow explosives, which should be provided by the military. There were more than fifty corpses outside the military station, but they had no survivors..."
When Fukushima Anmashi heard that the horse thieves escaped, he knew that this group of horse thieves was difficult to capture. After all, Manchuria is a Chinese Manchuria. It is summer again and the plants are in full bloom. It is very simple to escape the pursuit in such a season. As for the search team of the 10th Division, the 10th Division originally had the least number of people attacking the third route of Liaoyang. Now that the attack on Liaoyang is about to attack, how many people can he devote to the vast mountains and fields of Manchuria? Although the living horse thieves escaped, the dead horse thieves still provide a lot of information. He stopped Yamaguchi from introducing the information obtained from the thieves' corpse and said: "Master Tanaka who came from the base camp will re-check the body. You should hurry up and clean up the military station. In addition, clear a house in Xiongyue City, I want to use it."
Yamaguchi immediately stood up and said, "Yes, Your Excellency."
Passing through the still messy military station, they had already walked into the wooden shed for placing the corpses of horse thieves. Although three or four days had passed, the weather was hot and the corpses had smelled. Fukushima Anmasa did not hesitate to walk through two rows of corpses. These were horse thieves who were shot and died in battle. The corpses had long been stiff and white. He stopped in front of the last corpse. This was a very young Qing horse thief with a dark face.
It should be a good portrait that someone has rubbed it, compared to his face. His body and hands were stained. The most amazing thing was that his hands were locked around his chest, his arms seemed to be clamping something with force, his hands were tightly clamped, his tendons and veins appeared, and his expression was also ferocious. Seeing this, Yamaguchi was very nervous and said, "When this horse thief died..., his hands were clamped, and the cleaning person had not been separated, so he put it on the back."
Although Anmasa Fukushima had never been on the battlefield, he could still guess that this was the action of the two sides fighting. His scalp suddenly became a little numb. Where did such a brave horse thief come from?
The next day, in addition to the second squad of the special mission squad in Inner Mongolia, spies from all over the western Liaoning gathered in a yard in Xiongyue City. In this house where I don’t know how Zhongzuo got it, all spies kept silent. They had already seen the damage outside the city. Although the base camp only described this attack as a horse thief attack in order to stabilize the morale of the army, the losses were very small, but the explosion pits at the railway station that were dozens of meters wide would not lie. This makes it easy to guess what happened during the harassment a few days ago.
Fukushima Atsushima was firmly ranked first, but he looked serious and did not speak. Everyone in the special mission squad was uneasy. Although Major General Fukushima rode alone from Europe to spy on the Siberian Russian army more than ten years ago, and crossed the Siberian wasteland in winter, thus gaining everyone's respect, but this respect is more respectful. After all, the major general is very strong and attractive, but now he is serious, it is even more frightening. Finally, after changing the third tea, Fukushima Atsushima spoke, "Hanita, Tsunari, you can inform you of your work achievements."
Although Hanada Nakanosuke and Tsuda Hakujue were sweating coldly when they heard this, as the heads of the two special mission squads in Liaodong and Liaoxi, they had to come up and introduce the situation of the area they were responsible for. Especially in the Dongman area where Hanada Nakanosuke was responsible for, because Yang Rui's "cleaning the countryside movement", the bandits and tyrants in this area were almost extinct. Except for the Phoenix City regiment training Chen Guoen, there were very few Hu bandits. The plan to attack the alkali factory was originally planned to be the
It was terminated because the number of Manchurian rebels was insufficient, and finally it was conquered with the help of the First Army. Hanada Nakanosuke stumbling and introduced the situation of Dongman. In order to fear that Anmasato Fukushima was scolded, he added: "In Baishan and the Linjiang area near North Korea, there is a blue beard. It is rumored that their number is thousands. The army of Kuandian's country was speculated that they were destroyed, but their whereabouts were uncertain. No one sent to contact them so far found their leader."
Hanada Nakanosuke finished the introduction, and it was Tsukuri Hiraki, who was in charge of the Western Manchuria. Compared with the Eastern Manchuria, there were many beards in western Liaoning, and the big ones such as Feng Linge, Jin Shoushan, Du Lisan, and Zhang Zuolin had already defected, but the pro-Russian Tian Yumoto and the Fuxing Army that had not known how it emerged did not have a trap. In addition, the Du Lisan who had already arrived did not listen to the tune and did not listen to Xuan, and Zhang Zuolin was also unable to make up his mind. Of course, these could not be explained directly to Fukushima Akatsuki. Tsukuri Yoshihei just said that the introduction focused on introducing the situation of Tsukuri and the Fuxing Army.
Seeing that the Russian army was retreating step by step, Tatsumi had already made the intention of passing the test, but he was still watching the battle of Liaoyang. If the Russian army was still defeated, it would be certain to surrender. The trouble was that the Fuxing Army emerged for two months. The Russian army was killed and nearly a thousand people were killed, and the methods were endless and were very vicious. However, the people sent to contact him refused and even sacrificed two spies. Okano Matsujiro, but Yoshino Nakasa's death really caused a sensation in the entire Second Staff Department. It seems that they would not be able to surrender in a short period of time.
After hearing that Tsunariju Heiyoshi said Yoshino Nakasa, Fukushima Anmasa interrupted him and asked, "Has Yoshino's body been found?"
Tsunariju Heiyoshi replied: "It has been found, and he was buried in Liaozhong by the Fuxing Army."
Fukushima Anmasa sighed. Yoshino Nakasa knew that he had begun to sneak into Weihai, Lushun and other places in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 to spy on the information of the Beiyang Fleet. In order to facilitate activities, he learned from the Qing dynasty, leaving a big braid behind his head. If he had not been from a humble family and had nothing to do with the army, he could have been promoted to the position of major general. He asked: "Since the body was found, what is the cause of death?"
Tsudayuki Heiyoshi knew that Yoshino Nakasa was an old man from the Intelligence Department. He did not dare to neglect such a big deal. He had sent a military doctor to check it carefully. He said: "Yoshino Nakasa's body has been checked. He died of being hit by the Russian Monassingan rifle in a distance and had no scars on his body. He should have been hit by Tatsumoto's subordinates during the fierce battle between Wada Mimoto's troops in the Fuxing Army, so he died of the country."
Hearing that Yoshino Nakasa died on the battlefield, Fukushima Akamasa had no words for a long time, he was silent for a long time before asking: "How much do we know about the Revival Army? When will they cooperate with the Great Japanese Army to fight against the Luguo Army? Army?"
Tsunariju Heiyoshi said: "According to the report of Wu Peifu, a Qing Dynasty man who first contacted them, the Fuxing Army had more than 200 troops, and most of them used the captured Monashingan rifle of the Luguo Kingdom. The leader nicknamed "The Monkey King" and was very young. They admitted that they were revolutionaries and belonged to the same organization as the Fuxing Association that appeared in Shanghai last year. Okano Masajiro and Wu Peifu had contacted them, but they did not accept the recruitment of Japan. It is said that they even refused the guns and ammunition provided by the empire for free, and they were not like them.
He occupied territory like a bandit, and was not even interested in recruiting other bandits and expanding his own team. They have been fighting in a mobile manner, only interested in attacking the Chinese people." After Wu Peifu escaped and returned to Jinzhou, a contact point in western Liaoning that night, he reported to the Japanese in detail about the situation. After all, a Japanese died in this operation. Just like hiding the cause of death of Okano Masajiro, he concealed a lot of things from the Japanese, but only rewarded them according to what he knew when he and Okano contacted the Fuxing Army.
"Mobile War?" Fukushima Anmasa knew about the Revival Society. According to the news from the Black Dragon Society, the organization that emerged last year not only operated in Shanghai, but also had institutions in Tokyo, Japan, and also held a newspaper in Japan. They were constantly in contact with and attracted international students from Qing countries, and even sent guns to another anti-Qing organization, Huaxing Society. It seemed that the Qing revolution was his only goal.
Tsukuri Hiraki understands what Fukushima Anmaki means to "mobile warfare", which means that this army has no base and no logistics. Maybe it was allowed to move the warfare in the ancient cold weapons era, but in the hot weapons era, it was unimaginable if a move the warfare was unimaginable. He explained: "There are only more than 200 troops in the Fukuri Warfare Army, and there are more than 800 troops in the Luguo army that it eliminated. Many of these battles can capture the equipment of Luguo soldiers, and their guns and ammunition are not a problem; as for food, this is not a problem in western Liaoning. "Seeing that his explanation seemed to be accepted by Fukuri Hiraki Hiraki secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "At present, it seems that there is no way to win over the Fukuri Warfare Army, but I try all my ways to contact them."
It can be seen that the members of the special mission squad were very hard-working. Although the situation was not completely optimistic, they still achieved good results. Fukushima Anmashiro was going to hit everyone through the attack on Xiong Yuecheng Military Station, but it was still hit. They still had to do the matter. After everyone introduced it, the adjutant sitting next to Fukushima Anmashiro began to announce the investigation results of the attack at his warning. "There are more than 100 horse thieves attacking this time. The firearms are mainly made by the country's rifles and two Maxim machine guns, as well as grenades and yellow explosives. They are well-trained and brave in combat. According to the remaining corpses, all of them are Qing people, many of whom are horse thieves with thick and hard skin on the inner thighs. There is also a horse thieves leader who seemed to be from the south. When he died, he once sang a southern song. The horse thieves who died in battle have been painted, and a copy of the song has been copied and sent to everyone now."
After the adjutant briefly introduced, Fukushima Anmasa said: "You guys, scatter these portraits into all parts of Manchuria, ask about Chinese bandits who have joined the Volunteer Army and the Rebel Army, and offer rewards for those who know the details of this horse thief. Japan must pay the price for this horse thief. In addition, although the Liaoyang Battle was postponed, we should seize the opportunity to move the Qing horse thief so that it can continue to attack the Luguo army and the Dongqing railway line, so that the logistics of the Luguo army cannot play its due role. You guys, the success or failure of the Great Japan war against Luguo this time, and you have been deeply grateful to the emperor. Today, you should serve the death to fight for the country."
"Hay!" After Fukushima Akatsuki finished speaking, the spies under him shouted in unison.
