Battle of the Third Reich

Vol 5 Chapter 49: Negotiation (4) Yamashita

It is not a very difficult task for the group of experts on Asia-Pacific issues from the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs to prepare a testimony that conforms to the logic and language habits of the Japanese. Germany, which has worked with Japan for many years, has many Japanese connections.

What’s more, the confessors cooperated vigorously under the threat of the Nine-Tailed Cat and the Luger pistol, not only pointed out the minor loopholes in the fake confessions, but also added a lot of material on their own, increasing the possibility of that report. Reliability, so that this confession reached the highest level of seamless.

These Japanese people also know that it is impossible for them to set foot on the land of Japan. Even if the Germans kindly let them go, it is definitely not a welcome bouquet and cheers when they return to Japan. They are more likely to be the military police. Our cold muzzle and the roar of our companions in the past "Tianzhu".

Now that they have betrayed, they have done more thoroughly. These people not only think so but also do so.

These Japanese ruffians have long been completely ousted by German torture experts. Compared with the soldering iron, the honor of the Dahe nation is more impressive than the soldering iron.

They don’t blame them. Apart from the two or three leaders, none of the remaining heroes are of regular military origin. Of course, they have not received the kind of strict brainwashing education.

The fiercest guy among them is a rogue, and things like Bushido have nothing to do with them.

Before joining their respective organizations, they were either idlers on the street, scammers who caused troubles, and even hawkers at Kajiki Town.

The reasons for joining those organizations are also strange, some are brought into the industry by somehow, some think that they seem to be very majestic and joined, and some are purely to support the family.

But there is one thing in common, these people are a little smart, and also have a little language talent, otherwise they will not be sent to France to establish an intelligence station.

They have received some professional training, and once held a blood, but under the pliable nine-tail cat, all the training and blood are wiped out in the whip flying.

Fully grasping the social survival experience, they will not have the roots of samurai, let alone the consciousness of devotion to the emperor. Between survival and loyalty, all of them chose the former in the first place.

No one wanted to be sent to the small crematorium in the basement of the prison hospital by the Germans, which disappointed the German executioners.

These Japanese treacherous rebellions were all expected by German intelligence experts, but as the leader and military officer, Fujimoto Shimo also chose to rebel, which surprised German experts.

This man is not a local hawker. He is a regular officer who graduated from the Japanese Army Sergeant School. He served as the majestic army lieutenant of the subordinate special agency of the Kanto Army and the North China Dispatch Army. He is the most avid Japanese warrior.

Judging from his resume, he should be the least likely to betray Japan among this group of captives.

But this is Fujimoto Shimo, but it is precisely the first Japanese prisoner to confess after the execution.

Here the German executioner has just moved to open his muscles, and the man has already confessed himself in a bamboo tube.

However, since this guy was the culprit in assassinating the head, there were no intelligence officials present, and the Germans were all on the fire, and no one noticed this detail.

The German didn't care if his attitude of confessing his crimes, and he really packed up his meal with a variety of tricks, and didn't drag it off until he was beaten to death a few times.

So, this time when the German just spoke out of his request to turn over his confession, he had not waited for the executioner to whip and threaten him, and the guy began to cry and promised to cooperate with Germany.

Not only that, he firmly stated that if the German side needs it, he can even serve Germany without any conditions.

This time, the eyes of the German intelligence officer in charge of the matter began to shine.

================================================== ===

Feng Shi Yamashita, who was transferred to the German Army Hospital, was beaten badly, not because he was a Japanese general, but because the "famous general" was so stiff.

At the time, Fengxue Yamashita was not as prestigious as Xu Jun's original world at that time. The title of "Malay Tiger" was hunted for precious metals everywhere.

Yamashita Fengwen can also be considered as a graduate of the class, and graduated second in the 28th session of Lu University. He belongs to the promising saber group. As long as you stand against the team and are not stupid, you can definitely get a name in the army.

After graduation, he was sent to Germany to study abroad. He also worked as a military researcher in Switzerland and studied European military system. After returning to China, he spent a while in the staff headquarters, and then returned to the Army University as an instructor, and then was sent as a military officer of the Japanese Embassy in Austria.

After returning from Austria, he served as the captain of the Army's Third Wing and mixed with the nickname of "infantry artillery".

This guy is 1.74 meters tall, tall among the Japanese, but it is as heavy as an 11-year-old 37mm flat-firing infantry gun, which is 180 pounds. He may be the most powerful of the entire Japanese army at that time. Fatty's captain.

Although it is only a small captain, but how to say that the third unit is also the main force, and Feng Wen Yamashita officially became a member of the real power officer.

The origin of Fengwen under the mountain is not noble, and belongs to ordinary people. There is no samurai background, and it is a bit disadvantageous in the career.

But his wife came from a famous family. He was the eldest daughter of Major General Yongyou Yuanyan. By relying on his wife's route, he finally caught the line of the army's upper class and met a number of high-ranking men.

With the support of senior friends introduced by his father-in-law, Yamashita Fengwen climbed into the ranks of generals at the age of forty-nine, and even became an important head of the Army Investigation Department.

Unexpectedly, because of this group of friends, he unfortunately made a mistake that would make him irreversible, and he stood in the wrong team.

At that time, the Japanese Army was divided into two factions. One was to believe in nationalism, followed the emperor as the main, and intended to violently reform the country’s government, remove the “chen” around the emperor, and return all power to the emperor’s “imperialist”, One faction is determined to regard the emperor as a mascot, with the military department as the supremacy, and the "controlling faction" that stresses the smooth reform from top to bottom.

The imperialists are mostly young officers who are inferior field troops full of brains and loyal ideas to the monarchs, while the dominant factions are mostly high-ranking generals. Apart from establishing a militaristic state, the two have no common language at all.

The contradictions between the two sides accumulate, and they become heavier until they cannot be reconciled. As a result, they became the famous "two two six" coup in Japanese history.

On February 26, 1936, the young imperial officers of the "Royal School" carried out a mutiny with 1,500 soldiers of the First Division.

They attacked the residences of all cabinet members and killed a group of senior officials, including the Army Education Director.

The mutiny occupied the official residences of the Prime Minister and the Minister of the Army and demanded the replacement of the "domination" members in the Cabinet and the Army Department. They even proposed a list of successors, including the name of Major General Feng Wen.

Most of the friends who promoted Yamashita Bongwen were the backbone of the "Royal School", and Yamashita himself was more inclined to the "Royal School" thinking, so he was categorized as "Royal School" Member.

The regular army of the army launched a mutiny, which caused Yuren to be alarmed. After watching for a few days with cold eyes, Hirohi finally expressed an intolerable opinion. He characterized the mutiny as a "rebel", and said that if the military department continued to whisper there and did not solve the problem, he personally took the guard to "disorder". Asano suddenly was in a state of uproar, and Yuren's small body went to "smooth chaos", and even if he didn't add chaos, even Tianzhao God opened his eyes.

But as soon as the Emperor made a noise, the military finally had the backbone. With the Emperor backing up, solving the problem is simple, and the "ruling faction" immediately straightened the waist bar to calm down the mutiny with a destructive trend. Not only that, they also took this opportunity to carry out a large-scale cleansing of the "imperialist" officers in the army. Fengxian Yamashita was also pulled down from Malay, was expelled from the power center, and was sent to North Korea to serve as the Korean residence. The head of the 44th Army Brigade went.

This is still because of the help of the temple minister who served as Lu Xiang at that time, otherwise it may be kicked directly to the reserve. Interestingly, Shouyi in the temple was also introduced to him by the father-in-law at the foot of the mountain.

In North Korea, Yamashita has developed a hobby of collecting precious metals, and the work of killing and seizing treasures is not much done, which is not much different from a thief. In this way, the "July 7 Incident" was rushed and rushed, and a loyal Yamashita Yamashita team loyal to His Majesty the Emperor went to China to rob.

Yamashita Fengwen participated in many battles in North China, from the brigade regiment leader to the position of chief of staff of the North China Army.

On the battlefield of China, Yamashita Fengwen committed a series of war crimes and owed countless blood debts to the Chinese people.

In 1939, the "Nomenkan incident" broke out, and the Japanese army was ravaged. In order to appease the Russian side and also for the sake of face, a group of senior officials of the Kanto Army successively failed.

Fengxia Yamashita was transferred to the Kanto Army as the commander of the fourth division under the Kanto Army, and finally got a chance to regain his head.

(The Fourth Division of Osaka is an interesting division, but the real Fourth Corps is not as ridiculous as it is reported on the Internet. We will see this unit later in this book.)

After being the head of the permanent division for a period of time, Yamashita was finally transferred back to the country and returned to the power center as the director of Japan Airlines and the head of the aviation headquarters. Because he had studied in Germany, he was familiar with Germany, his qualifications were long enough, and his official title was good enough, plus his position and counterparts, so he was appointed as the deputy head of the military observation delegation to Germany by the Ministry of Military Affairs, leading the army observation mission. Go to the European battlefield to observe and learn, especially the investigation of the tactics and technology of the German Air Force and the armored forces.

After receiving this mission, Yamashita Fengwen was quite ashamed. He was prepared to show his talents in this investigation and perform well, maybe he could continue to work hard in his existing position.

So when the observation team arrived in Paris, he immediately got in touch with the secret information station of the Army Staff Headquarters in Paris and wanted to get the first-hand information of the German army on the French battlefield.

Not to mention, Fujimoto did have two brushes in his intelligence collection. He got some French combat records and some German battlefield manuals, many of which were helpful to analyze German tactics.

Yamashita Fengwen praised Fujimoto Mao for this, and promised a bunch of empty cheques for promotion.

With the mentality of surrendering to Lee, the flattered Fujimoto Shimao, after striving to tout Fengshou Yamashita, said that he would hold a luxurious Japanese-style banquet at the intelligence station to catch the wind and dust for Lieutenant General Yamashita.

In order to arouse the interest of the general, Fujimoto Mao also brag about how fresh the French seafood he got, how many varieties, how high-quality ingredients, how superb his chef's craftsmanship, made The sashimi and the sushi are so sweet and delicious that the Yamashita Feng Wen who had eaten bread sausage for a few weeks along the way suddenly moved his index finger and drooled on the spot.

Dulele is not as good as all people, and Yamashita Fengwen is not the main eater. He dare not forget to save his military career, the benefactor and old governor Shouyi. After the enthusiastic introduction of Yamashita Fengwen, adding fuel and vinegar, the latter of course was also very decisively happy to accept the appointment.

So the next day, two Japanese leaders who invaded China, the future "God of War" and "Famous General" happily entered the quirky Japanese restaurant.

The two butchers with both hands covered with blood from the Chinese people were unlucky. Originally they were just trying to taste a little bit of fresh Japanese sashimi. As a result, they were now beaten by German strong men like two oysters. Can they see Mount Fuji alive? Both are in between.
