Others show their swords, I show my missiles!

Chapter 16 Joking about the contradiction between the Japanese and the land, reconstruction agent Ya

As mentioned earlier, Yamamoto Kazuki was beaten to pieces by the independent group in Yangcun, and fled back to Taiyuan in embarrassment with a few people.

Kazuo Souche pretended to be surprised and asked: "Yamamoto-kun, what's going on? The mission has been completed, right? In order to complete the mission, these sacrifices are worth it!"

"Your Excellency, Commander, I'm sorry, we were ambushed in Yangcun. My team was wiped out. The news must have been leaked!" Yamamoto Kazuki defended.

"In addition, Haqi Road in Yangcun is different from other Haqi Road. They are very well-equipped. When shooting at night, they actually opened fire three hundred meters away from us; moreover, they were all automatic firearms. The submachine guns in our hands could not fire at all. Not that far away, the Imperial warriors have no skills, but they can only be beaten passively. There are no less than 50 mortars on Haqi Road. In just one minute of exchange of fire, almost all my team was shattered."

At that time, the Battle of Yangquan had not yet started, and Souchong Kazuo did not know about the equipment replacement of the Independent Regiment and the New Regiment.

Kazuo Souche used the important information brought back by Kazuki Yamamoto as Yamamoto's excuse to defend himself. Didn't take it seriously.

I thought to myself: "For 50 mortars, do you mean that your squad encountered a division of the enemy? The entire Eighth Route Army's mortars are probably only over a hundred."

"In that case, let's disband the special agent team. From now on, we have to rely on ordinary soldiers. How about you come to my side and be a staff officer?" Kazuo Souche couldn't do anything to Yamamoto, but he just didn't want him to mess around anymore and distract his energy. Moreover, the cost of training its team is not low.

But Yamamoto Kazuki didn’t think so.

"Your Excellency, Commander, there is a story in China: During the Song Dynasty, there was a guy named Yue Fei. In Zhuxian Town, he defeated more than 500 Jin troops with only [-] 'Beiwei Army'. It can be seen that the role of the special agent team cannot be tolerated. Look down on."

Yamamoto saw that Kazuo Souche seemed half-informed, and Yamamoto, who liked to teach others, explained:

"In the past 10 years, with the development of aviation technology and the advancement of individual combat weapons, special forces with all-weather and all-region combat capabilities have gained a material foundation, especially the emergence of airborne operations, which has expanded the dimension of war from a flat surface When it comes to the three-dimensional world, special operations emerge as the times require.

For example, the historical Assault Brigade of England, the Ranger Regiment of Omanrik, the Paratrooper Regiment that tortures you, etc. These troops have a high degree of mobility, flexibility, and concealment, and can perform tasks such as destruction, rescue, and intelligence collection behind enemy lines or in other special areas, which have had an important impact on the course of the war. However, my big plaster airborne troops are simply unsightly! "

What Yamamoto said was true.

In the 20s, there was indeed an airborne trend, and various countries began to train their own airborne troops.

The Japanese, who followed the international trend, certainly did not lag behind, and also formed their own airborne troops.

However, due to the contradiction between the Japanese Army and Navy, the issue of the ownership of the airborne troops was put on the table, causing a falling out between the Army and the Navy.

The Japanese have a saying: The biggest enemy of the Japanese navy and army is not the Russians, the British and Chinese, but the Japanese army and navy, which should be like a family and unite sincerely.

When the conflict was at its most intense, the Army built its own aircraft carrier; and the Navy also had its own tanks.

To understand why they are so at odds, you have to understand the two powerful feudal clans during the Japanese Tokugawa shogunate period: Choshu clan and Satsuma clan.

The first lord of the Choshu Domain, he served as the general of the Western Army in the last battle of the Japanese Warring States Period, the Battle of Sekihara.

In the end, the Western Army was defeated and of course had to be dealt with, and its fiefdoms were greatly reduced.

From then on, the lord of the Chosu domain was always at odds with the shogunate.

The first generation lord of the Satsuma Domain was originally on the same side as Choshu. After the war, he surrendered to the shogunate and was granted the title of Satsuma Domain.

During the Edo period, the daimyo clan, which had a close relationship with the shogunate, was located near Edo, and the farther away the relationship was, the further away their territories were from Edo.

The Satsuma Domain is located in the westernmost of Japan's four islands. It can be seen that the shogunate does not like this Satsuma Domain.

But this is called 'the sky is high and the emperor is far away', and the Satsuma Domain has gained a rare opportunity for development.

Moreover, the Edo shogunate was similar to China in that it also implemented a secluded strategy. The Satsuma Domain became one of the few ports where foreign communication and trade could be carried out.

Just like this, the Satsuma clan gradually grew into the second most powerful clan under the rule of the Edo shogunate. The first is Choshu Domain.

Later, in the 19s, the Russian navy led a fleet into Edo and threatened the shogunate with force to found the country. The Opium War had already occurred at that time. The plaster country knew that Western countries had powerful ships and guns, and the situation was similar to that of China. , was also forced to sign an unequal treaty: the "Treaty of Kanagawa".

The general meaning of the treaty is that the plaster country will open two ports to trade with Omanric and ensure the safety of Omanric crews.

After this incident, the entire plaster country was eager to change the status quo. In fact, the beginning of modern history of the plaster country was very similar to that of China.

Later, the "Respect the King and Reject the Barbarians" movement began with the Choshu Domain as the center. Call on the shogunate to return real power to the Locusts to resist foreign barbarians.

As the movement gained momentum, the Edo shogunate was forced to agree to expel the barbarians, and the port was closed in the 19s.

The day after announcing the closure of the port, the Choshu clan began shelling foreign ships and provoking a war.

This had nothing to do with the Satsuma clan.

But at that time, the leader of the Satsuma Domain went to Edo to report on his work. As a result, he met four British historical businessmen on the way. According to the practice of the Plaster Kingdom, civilians must kneel down and give in when encountering the feudal lord. Although this man is not the feudal lord, he is the feudal lord's father, and he is also the actual person in power of the Satsuma clan.

Therefore, the accompanying warriors asked the Yingge historical merchants to kneel down, but at that time the Yingge historical merchants looked down on Easterners and refused, and then the warriors led by this man killed the four Yingge historical merchants.

The British history stopped working as soon as they heard about it and made the Tokugawa shogunate lose money.

The Tokugawa shogunate wanted to settle the matter, so they obediently gave it to him. However, Ying Geshi went further and continued to demand that the Satsuma domain execute the culprit, and the Satsuma domain also had to pay compensation.

In fact, the Yingge historians mainly wanted to save face, and their original intention was to let the Satsuma clan find a temporary worker to execute him.

It turned out that the translation of the plaster country was a two-handed sword, which translated into wanting to take the head of the feudal lord's father.

The Satsuma clan is not weak in nature, how can it bear hearing this? So I started working with Yingge History.

At first, the British historians were waiting for the Satsuma clan to send money, but they waited for the cannonballs. Although the cannonballs from the plaster country were made of solid iron, they were caught off guard and suffered a loss.

But after reacting, the cannons fired back with ping-ping-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong. The cannonballs of the British Navy were full of explosives.

Then the Satsuma clan was stunned and defeated.

Started to follow the history of England again, wagging its tail and begging for mercy.

Borrowed some money from the Tokugawa Shogunate and compensated the British history. And the money was never paid back in the end.

This incident can be said to be the introduction to the discord between the Japanese army and navy.

Because there was no conflict between the Satsuma Domain and the Choshu Domain. However, the Choshu Domain advocated resisting the foreigners, while the Satsuma Domain was frightened by the British history and believed that it could not resist the foreigners.

They tend to develop obscenely.

However, the Choshu clan is more passionate and must persist in fighting the foreigners.

At this time, all walks of life in the plaster country, including Tianlu, no longer wanted to resist the foreigners. Everyone realized that resisting the foreigners was impossible. Only the Choshu clan is still jumping around.

So everyone, including Tenchu, united with the Satsuma clan and expelled the forces of the Choshu clan from Kyoto.

And Changzhou Fanyi was angry: You dare to hit me, and I still want to hit you. In the future, isn't there someone in China who will say, "When encountering an enemy, you must draw your sword?" So he sent troops to the capital, but was beaten to the ground by the capital and the Satsuma clan.

Therefore, the feud between the two vassals was forged.

But even if the Choshu clan was rubbed for a while, as the saying goes: "A skinny camel is bigger than a horse", the two major clans were still the largest forces at that time. Moreover, the Choshu clan still had the upper hand.

And although the "repelling the barbarians" sides have different opinions, the "respecting the king" has the same goal, which means that the two of them must form a unified front to kill the Edo shogunate.

Then the two sides found a peacemaker to make peace, formed an alliance, and defeated the shogunate army.

Tian Locust regained power and then began the Meiji Restoration.

When the world is settled, aren't you allowed to rebuild the army?

As the goal of respecting the king was achieved, the alliance between the two major vassals came to an end.

Since Choshu focuses on land warfare, Satsuma focuses on naval warfare.

Satsuma is weaker than Choshu in terms of power and cannot compete in the competition for army power. It can only develop its navy and want to improve its status in the navy.

At the beginning, the army is strong and the navy is weak.

Later came the Sino-Japanese War.

At that time, the Japanese Navy defeated the Beiyang Navy, which was known as the best in Asia, and stole countless silver coins, and its status suddenly rose.

At the beginning of the 20th century, he fought another naval battle with Xiong Da and won again.

The navy said: "Look, our navy is very powerful, right?"

When the Japs headquarters heard this, they said, "Yes! Then I'll give you a higher status. You two brothers have equal status."

The army was not happy and wanted to suppress the navy at every turn; the navy did not want to give up the position it had finally won.

Moreover, there is no unified military department in China, only the Minister of War and the Minister of the Navy, both of whom have equal status.

Any two parties with equal status should pay attention to two issues: one is the blank space at the junction; the other is the intersection at the junction. Those who are profitable will rush to do it; those who are unprofitable will be avoided.

For example, in a classroom, the teacher said: Girls from the south come to sweep; boys from the north come to sweep.

It turns out the middle is always the uncleanest place.

If money is scattered on the ground, whoever picks it up belongs to whom, A on the left will pick it up, and B on the right will pick it up.

These two people are probably going to get over the line!

Later, people from all walks of life in the plaster country couldn't do anything to them, so they started to ruin it. You two can do whatever you like.

The fight between the two began to intensify.

In the war, not only did they not cooperate in fighting, but they sometimes undermined each other, lest their military achievements surpass their own.

Simply put:

The elder brother and the younger brother went together to beat a strong man. The older brother was not beaten; the younger brother was beaten.

The younger brother said: The strong man is too powerful, so don't beat the strong man. Let's be the strong man's little brother together. The older brother said: You are too spineless. The two had a conflict.

So the younger brother teamed up with outsiders to beat the older brother.

After the beating, the younger brother found someone to intercede and said falsely: Although I teamed up with outsiders to beat you, you are still the eldest brother in my heart. Let's join forces and do great things.

The elder brother had just been beaten and was relatively weak, so he agreed to hug his younger brother for warmth.

The two teamed up to beat up the mother who held the real power, and helped the father become the head of the family.

Their father feels that the older brother is more powerful than the younger brother, so the older brother should contribute more to the family than the younger brother. I prefer my brother. If you have good things, give them to your brother first.

But later, my brother beat two children from the next door family outside and robbed the next door family of their money.

Their father took a look and said: My younger brother is also quite capable, so you two brothers should have the same status and share the good things equally.

The older brother has been in a dominant position for a long time and feels a little disappointed, so he wants to regain his position; and the younger brother does not want to lose the hard-earned position.

From then on, the two brothers turned against each other and became enemies.

This is the origin of the contradiction between the Japanese army and navy.

Since the Japanese Warring States Dynasty, the two sides have even turned the screws in reverse. Is it possible for them to jointly form an airborne force?

In the end, both sides formed their own airborne troops, and no one cared about the other.

It would be nice if both sides could train qualified airborne troops, but unfortunately they have no instructors and don't know how to train airborne troops.

I got a bunch of photos of paratroopers and practiced jumping from high places according to the movements above.

For example, on a 10-meter high platform, try 207C with a difficulty coefficient of [-].

You know, those photos are not for people to train airborne troops.

It's just for cool, for show, whether it's reasonable or not.

Just like tearing up Japanese soldiers with your hands, hiding mines in buns, blowing up airplanes with explosive packs, and annihilating a large group of Japanese soldiers with a small pistol. Just visual effects.

You can imagine this: before the Japanese come to China, they must first study the above-mentioned video materials. Will they still dare to come?

If our army studied these materials again, and when charging, holding a small pistol in hand, standing up straight, looking straight, pacing, shooting once to the left and once to the right, would we be able to win the battle?

In this way, the Japanese airborne troops practiced 207C for several months. Basically it can only play a role in practicing courage.

Later, the Japanese saw that this was not going to work because they would not be able to train qualified airborne troops.

What's the reason? By the way, there is a shortage of instructors.

Well, we don’t have instructors, but our allies do! Allies torture you there are instructors.

So I discussed torture with you. I happily agreed to torture you. After all, you are good, I am good, everything is good.

A group of senior instructors were selected and sufficient teaching materials were brought. There is no secret at all. He is really the best instructor and the best teaching material.

The instructor is here, why don't you meet the students first? I just wanted to do a review.

As a result, we spent several days eating and drinking without seeing a single student.

It's not that the instructors are unprofessional, they are urging the Japanese every day to see the students.

But both the army and the navy know that their airborne troops are too shameless to show off to others. So the two brothers collaborated once again:

The elder brother found his younger brother: "Good brother, my father has hired Tailor Li to teach us how to make big trousers. Tailor Li wants to see our trousers first. But brother, my trousers have holes in them. Recently, they have been replaced with crotch pants." Bu, I don’t have the nerve to show it to him. Can you make an excuse and let him see it later? So I can go out and mend my pants first?”

When the younger brother heard this, he said, "Okay, okay, I even have holes in my crotch cloth."

So the two teamed up to find excuses to postpone the review.

Later, the Army found some elites; the Navy found some elite Marines. Pretending to be an airborne soldier to participate in the review.

Torturing you to see, not bad! Each one is strong and strong. Of course it's good, they are all elites selected from thousands of people, except they don't know how to skydive.

Then come and learn to skydive.

The result was confusing: these people were called airborne troops, but apart from being able to shoot and stab, they had nothing to do with airborne troops.

Not even one knows how to use a parachute.

The instructor who tortured you was very dedicated, and after a lot of effort, he finally taught them to use a parachute.

Then it was time to get on the plane and practice jumping.

As a result, when the Japanese got on the plane, everyone was either airsick or gas-sick. Anyway, it’s “I’m sick and I don’t dance.”

The instructor who tortured you used ten times the power of Political Commissar Zhao to do "ideological work", but in the end, these Japs had completely forgotten the spirit of Bushido and refused to jump down.

The accompanying Japanese officer couldn't stand it any longer, so he kicked a Japanese soldier down.

This unlucky guy was just like the Xingchi version of Wei Xiaobao when he was about to be caught by the spider spirit. He screamed and practiced 207C and forgot how to open a parachute.

After several months of hard training, the Japanese finally dared to jump down.

Then let your instructor accompany you and observe the training effect.

As a result, two Japanese transport planes collided with each other. In addition to the Japanese, a dozen instructors who tortured you were also reimbursed.

There was also a Japanese pilot who didn't know what he had against the airborne troops: while the plane was still on the sea, he signaled for the airborne troops to parachute.

Several hundred Japanese soldiers were feasted on by whales; a small number of Japanese soldiers were fed a meal of sea water in retaliation.

Of course, Yamamoto did not dare to use such miserable airborne troops, nor did he dare to train his own airborne troops. So the special agent team he planned was still purely army.

Yamamoto continued: "So our special agent team cannot rely on airborne troops, but must establish a force similar to my Big Plaster Locust Family Skeleton Team. This force has strong individual combat capabilities. This is different from the agents I trained. The team was similar. But that team placed too much emphasis on individual combat capabilities and ignored mutual cooperation. Therefore, they were all shattered very quickly."

In the Japanese army, subordinates have respectful titles for superiors, such as "Your Excellency." But there is no derogatory name for the class itself. I won’t call myself a humble person.

"The last time we raided the Haqilu headquarters, we first went the wrong way; secondly, we happened to encounter a Haqilu force with equipment that surpassed ours; and thirdly, the news was leaked in advance. Just pay attention to these and wait until I train another agent. The team, equipped with more sophisticated weapons, will definitely be able to annihilate the Haqi Road headquarters next time. Avenge the previous shame!"

Kazuki Yamamoto also has a background, otherwise he wouldn't be able to drink and chat with Kazuo Souche.

If you don’t believe me, you don’t have any background. Just go have tea with the top leader of your unit at work and see what the effect is.

Therefore, even though the team he brought out was almost completely wiped out, it would not kill Kazuki Yamamoto.

Kazuo Souche thought for a while, but still didn't dare to extinguish Yamamoto's fantasy all at once.

"Let's do this, Yamamoto-kun. You return your 36th Division. It just so happens that the commander of the 36th Division, Shui Kaijo, has the idea of ​​forming a special force."

Yamamoto Kazuki finally got an opportunity to rebuild the special agent team, and of course he would not give it up.

So he was sent to the 36th Division and temporarily became a squadron leader.
