Chapter 698 In this world, who can he kill and what can he do?
Nanzō Yunko chuckled and picked up her teacup. "If I weren't your sister, I'd probably have grass growing over my grave by now."
Almost. If Minamizō Akiko had not suddenly jumped into his circle, the assassination of Minamizō Yunoko would definitely have been put on the agenda.
This woman is too smart. She is well-known in the Second Department. If the Jiangyin incident had not caused such a big stir, she would have been transferred to the local area or taken charge of the overall situation by now.
Commander Bai saw that the two men were on edge when they met. He coughed to smooth things over and said, "Attack the Ninth War Zone and establish contact with the 21st Army. Your headquarters is doing this to be able to transport supplies when the time comes."
Okamura Yasuji had already asked the people at the General Staff Headquarters about this matter, and the reason was indeed the case.
She nodded. "Yes, our army is making rapid progress in Annan, and the Taifo Kingdom has also joined our camp and will provide resources. The armed forces of the surrounding countries are not strong enough to resist us. This area will bring us huge benefits. However, the conflict with the navy has forced the army headquarters to consider opening up transportation lines to facilitate the transportation of resources and supplies."
"What is his plan?" Commander Bai asked after signaling Adjutant Li to get some food.
"We don't want to fight you, but we have to carry out the headquarters' plan. So, I came here this time hoping that Commander Bai and my brother-in-law would take action."
"What are you doing?" Zhou Weiguo raised his head and glanced at Nanzō Yunko. "How are you going to do it? You can't let me kill him, right?"
Nanzō Yunko didn't say anything, but just looked at Zhou Weiguo quietly.
Zhou Weiguo hummed and leaned forward. "You really want me to kill him?"
"If he's injured and assassinated, Okamura Neiji will withdraw from this war. He doesn't want to break his agreement with you, but he has to follow orders. After much deliberation, this is the only way to withdraw."
This was indeed a good idea. If he withdrew from this battle and let others take over, there would be no conflict of interest between the Ninth War Zone and him.
This is indeed a good strategy that kills two birds with one stone.
"He plays it quite well. He pretends to be dead, and then goes back to recuperate and come out again. Then we will be left to fight to the death with the new commander. It's a good plan." Zhou Weiguo mocked mercilessly.
Asaka Hiderei was still cracking sunflower seeds. Hearing this, he frowned and said, "He doesn't want to join the cabinet anymore. If he gets hurt, he'll be out of touch."
"Although the cabinet is good, it's better than being slaughtered by you. After all, the Okamura and Yamada families have hundreds of people, and they can't afford to gamble."
"But the problem is that we intend to let you open up this transportation line, and he also intends to run away or something."
what?
Nanjō Yunko looked at Asaka Hiderei in surprise, as if she felt that she had heard something unbelievable.
This...what are we planning to do here, to connect the empires?
Why is that?
Nanzō Yunko fell into deep thought. After a while, she seemed to understand something and said, "It was your idea again. You knew that once the connection was established, the Imperial Army would definitely build a railway as quickly as possible to connect the east and west."
"Are you really planning to build a railway?" Commander Bai was actually still a little unsure. They would build the railway after the road was opened.
Nanzō Yunko thought for a moment and said, "Road transportation is too expensive. After all, our oil reserves are limited. The most convenient way is, of course, rail. And since there are railroads everywhere, the headquarters should be able to connect them. So, the cost won't be that much."
After saying this, she looked at Commander Bai. "Commander Bai, you're planning to use us to build a railway that spans the east and west. I have to say, this is indeed a good idea. After all, once our empire is connected, it will have to be built. But..."
"Just what?" Commander Bai asked, lighting a cigarette.
Nanjō Yunko didn't know what to say. Asaka Hiderei stood up and fetched a map. This map was the same mountain city topographic map that Nanjō Yunko had given her.
Nanzō Yunko approached the map as it was laid out. "If our Imperial Army connects east and west, your southwest will be vulnerable to attacks from both north and south. If a large-scale battle were to begin, how would you respond?"
The idea is good, but it is risky.
"Yes, I've been thinking about that, too." Commander Bai folded his hands, thought for a moment, then looked at Nanzō Yunko. "Well, you're one of us now, after all. I wonder if you have any ideas for solving this problem?"
Nanzō Yunko pondered for a moment, then raised her hand and pointed in the direction of Xi'an. "Counterattack on the northern front, counterattack Xi'an, and push the Second Army in Xi'an to the Tongguan area. Then your encirclement will be impossible. In addition, if you can launch a large-scale counterattack in Shanxi and recapture a few counties, that will be a blow to the Second Army."
"It's difficult. Yan Laoxi will not allow the Central Army to enter. This..."
Zhou Weiguo snorted coldly, "If he's still calculating his own little schemes before the greater good of the nation, just kill him. Shanxi wouldn't be called Shanxi without him."
Commander Bai and Nanzō Yunko just looked at Zhou Weiguo.
Both of them knew that if this guy dared to say it, he would dare to do it.
"Why are you looking at me? Can't this man be killed?" Zhou Weiguo spread his hands.
"If you kill him, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army will be in chaos." Nan Zao Yunzi looked at Zhou Weiguo and explained, "Once the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army is divided, the First Army will quickly launch an offensive, and Shanxi will be torn apart."
"If he doesn't obey, it won't affect our overall situation, right?" Zhou Weiguo spread his hands. "A short pain is worse than a long one. I think it's better to kill him. Then we can quickly enter Shanxi and control the central and southern parts. I want to see which of his Jinsui Army dares to jump out and become a traitor."
This bastard.
Commander Bai rubbed his temple and looked at Nanzō Yunko; "Ignore him, just continue talking."
Nanzō Yunko nodded slightly and pointed east and west. "If you want to attack, you can't give up the area west of Changsha. If you give it up, it will be troublesome. If you have this plan, then you must let the Japanese army advance from the southwest of Hunan down to Guangdong. That way, you will have enough space to deploy."
After saying that, she took a pencil from the side and drew a circle on the map. "The purpose of the base camp is just to penetrate it so that we can transport supplies. This time we're not trying to seize the place, so the entry point is not important. What matters is the connection."
Commander Bai nodded.
After some calculation, he felt that the plan was feasible.
He nodded slightly and put his hands behind his back. "It seems that letting you occupy it is the most appropriate."
"I guess so, but in the end you'll still benefit the most. After all, the railway has been built for you. However, there's still a big problem here, one you'll have to deal with later."
