Chapter 484 Come prepared
In November of the 21th year of the Republic of China, the st Army of the Japanese invaders completed its assembly in Sanya, Hainan.
Prior to this, the 21st Army had suffered heavy losses when occupying Guangzhou, and was no longer able to launch an offensive against Guangxi with the troops it had.
Lu Jingmin, the chief of the Military Control Commission's Guangzhou Station, and Lin Hansheng, the chief of the Central Control Commission's Guangzhou Station, respectively sent this information back to the Shancheng headquarters.
The information sent back by the two men differed from the information sent back by Caishen that the Japanese army was about to attack Guangxi.
In addition, the Military Commission held several meetings to study the issue and unanimously agreed that it was impossible for the Japanese army to launch a large-scale offensive against Guangxi with its current strength.
Therefore, the information sent back by the God of Wealth was regarded as questionable information and was put aside.
In early November, Caishen sent back intelligence again, mentioning that supplies had been expedited to Guangzhou. The Japanese army was very likely to complete its assembly in the coastal area of Guangzhou in early November and launch an attack on Guangxi.
However, this intelligence did not attract the attention of the Military Commission because, up to now, there was no news of reinforcements arriving from Guangzhou.
The commander of the Fourth War Zone, Zhang Fakui, received an order from Commander Bai. In order to cooperate with the offensives of the Third and Ninth War Zones, he even moved the 31st Army, a garrison unit, to western Guangdong to prepare to eliminate the Japanese troops in the Pearl River Delta area.
Little did they know that the Japanese invaders had already withdrawn the 5th Division, known as the Steel Army, from the north and marched south.
The mainland also dispatched the newly formed 22th Division of the 38nd Army and the Formosa Independent Mixed Brigade to defend Guangzhou.
Formosa is what the Japanese call Wanwan.
This brigade was originally responsible for defending the Guangzhou area, but in order to cooperate with the 21st Army's attack on Guangxi, this unit was also withdrawn.
At this time, the defending force in southern Guangxi consisted of only more than 46 people from the th Army.
The Japanese invaders chose the Qinzhou area as the landing site and sent the Fifth and Eighth Fleets of the Navy as transport fleets, heading towards Guangxi.
On November 13, 1920, the fleet arrived near Qinzhou. The commander of the Fifth Division, Major General Imamura Hitoshi, received an attack order from Commander Ando Toshiki. The Fifth Division launched a landing operation in Guangxi, and the Battle of Southern Guangxi began.

"Yes, Lord Nishio, we have allocated two routes to ensure that the supplies will be delivered in a timely manner."
"Commander, given the current situation, I cannot specify the delivery time,"
"Yes, yes, that's right."
"Don't worry, the southbound route has been running normally so far. The time difference is because the Red Army has been destroying the railway facilities, causing some unnecessary trouble."
"However, please rest assured, Commander. The dispatch center has not received any information about the large-scale damage to the railway. I believe the delay will not last too long."
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on all the developments. Goodbye, Commander."
Chen Yang hung up the phone, his fists clenched subconsciously, and he kept cursing in his heart.
I don’t know what those people in the government do for a living.
I worked hard to send back four pieces of intelligence, repeatedly stating that the Japanese army was about to launch an attack on Guangxi, and even explained the time for the delivery of supplies, but they still didn't take it seriously.
Of course, Chen Yang didn't know that the intelligence he sent back was inconsistent with the intelligence from the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Military Bureau of Investigation in Guangzhou.
Moreover, according to intelligence from Guangzhou, the 21st Army was simply unable to launch an offensive against Guangxi.
Furthermore, all major military regions were preparing for the winter offensive. The Fourth War Zone was Zhang Fakui's area, and his goal was to cooperate with the Ninth War Zone to encircle and annihilate the Eleventh Army in Gangcun.
Therefore, Chen Yang's information was not taken seriously. After all, he did not make it clear where these soldiers came from.
Chen Yang is not from the Army Department. His job is to transport supplies to the front line.
Therefore, the information he obtained was about how many people his supplies could be used by.
As for whether these people fell from the sky or grew out of the ground, he really didn't know.
It was not until the appearance of the 38th Division, the 5th Division and the Formosa Mixed Brigade that the commander of the 46th Army, He Xuan, realized that a disaster was imminent.
He quickly ordered people to stop the enemy from advancing westward, and sent a telegram to the camp seeking support.
Although Zhang Fakui was the commander of the Fourth War Zone, the combat command and mobilization were all carried out by Commander Bai, who was known as the Little Zhuge Liang.
To be precise, all movements of the 3rd, 4th and 9th war zones are commanded by Commander Bai.
The Battle of Southern Guangxi started, and Commander Bai urgently dispatched the 31st Army to Guangxi, but it was too late. The Japanese army was unstoppable and had already attacked Nanning in just a few days.
Knock, knock, knock on the door interrupted Chen Yang's thoughts.
He Yuehua said respectfully: "Sir, a group of people have arrived with a letter of recommendation from the Army Department and a special affairs certificate from the Northern Characters Section."
"What recommendation letter?" Chen Yang was slightly stunned.
He Yuehua replied: "The leader is called Sato Masanobu, a top student in the Department of Mathematics at the Imperial University."
"They received an invitation from the head of the Northern Characters Section, Yamamoto Yoshisaburo, and came to the Characters Section for exchange activities with a letter of recommendation from the Army Department?"
"Exchange activities? Top students in the Department of Mathematics?" Chen Yang sounded a little confused.
But he reacted in an instant, "Secretary He, who do you think is the head of the Northern Characters Section? Isn't it Osawa Takao?"
He Yuehua was stunned for a moment and said, "Chief Chen, you haven't read the internal notice these days. Osawa Takao has been recalled to the mainland due to poor transportation management."
"His successor is Yamamoto Yoshisaburo."
Chen Yang suddenly felt uneasy. After Okita Keiji reminded him, Chen Yang asked Fujiwara Shizuka.
This Yamamoto Yoshisaburo is the nephew of the Black Dragon Society's president Yamamoto Kazuo, and is four years older than Fujiwara Shizuka's fiancé Yamamoto Ryosuke.
His father is Yamamoto Yoshi, Yamamoto's cousin.
This person is usually in charge of the Black Dragon Society's transportation business. He has many subordinates and is considered one of the most likely candidates to inherit the Black Dragon Society.
Okita Keiji said that his target might be himself, but Chen Yang disagreed.
He believed that Yamamoto Yoshisaburo's target must be Lee Hyun-sook.
Although Li Xianshu does not hold any position, most of the internal power is controlled by her.
Even the next president will be decided by her.
Yamamoto Kazuo was just a puppet controlled by her, and almost all major decisions were made by Lee Hyun-sook.
As for Yusuke Kuroda being the third leader, that is the ranking of the Black Dragon Society in the Chinese region.
Ranked first in the Chinese region is the Northern Black Dragon Society's Asian Affairs Minister Yoshihito Takita, followed by the Black Dragon Society's permanent director Kenichi Ishioka.
The third person is Yusuke Kuroda, Consul of the Shanghai Consulate.
But at this time, Yoshisaburo Yamamoto actually stuffed a bunch of mathematicians into the vertical character class?
Chen Yang's mouth corners slightly raised.
After all this time, they still want to figure out how they run the vertical character class...
Urge, comment, reward, thank.
