The Gaming Hut tour through Robin's new book Hamlet's GM Screen resumes with a look at the beats of Session Zero. The Tradecraft Hut peers into the dossier of Revolutionary War era newspaper publisher James Rivington, who may have been a spy for the Patriots.

The following was scrawled into a diary found in a house located in New Hollow - one of the towns permanently quarantined since the closure of the Great Darkness of 1999. Often simply known as "weird towns," these places are cordoned off from the public due to their "dangerous conditions." While few concrete details are ever offered, there are often rumors about what strangeness lurks in the abandoned cities.After being closed in 2001, New Hollow was the subject of many such rumors. Some stated that time worked differently in the city, while others claimed consciousness interacted with the town in some bizarre way. In 2007, a group of brave (or stupid) urban explorers trespassed the city's borders. Exploring various places, the adventurers found a strange diary in one of the many houses in the city. While the house seemed to be the same one described in the diary, the small book was found in a child's bedroom full of toys, old clothing, and a small library of children's books. Curiously, all the books were face out except one - "The Hag in the Hut" - which, when flipped over, revealed a haggard looking witch on its cover. Additionally, and to the explorers' chagrin, they also reportedly found a pile of human bones living beneath the room's bed.After missing for a week, only 2 of the 5 trespassers came back from the town. Authorities took the individuals into custody, and the diary the individuals brought back with them was eventually given to researchers at Mistoric university, as few artifacts from the quarantined zones are available for research. As for the remaining explorers, it was never discovered, or at least revealed, what became of them.Follow us on Twitter at @maeltopiaWant to learn more about the world of Maeltopia?

In dieser Folge von „Kein Erfolg ist eine Absicht®“ spricht Markus Mensch gemeinsam mit Manuel Spors über Michael Jackson als Marke. Nicht als Gossip-Thema, nicht als Musik-Diskussion, sondern als Marketing-Beispiel. Denn Michael Jackson war mehr als ein Künstler. Er war eine weltweit erkennbare Personal Brand. Handschuh, Moonwalk, Hut, Pose, Stimme, Inszenierung, Erlebnisse und Storytelling: All das hat dazu beigetragen, dass seine Marke bis heute im Kopf bleibt. Markus Mensch und Manuel Spors sprechen darüber, was Unternehmer daraus lernen können. Warum reicht ein gutes Produkt allein oft nicht aus? Warum brauchen Marken Wiedererkennung? Wie wichtig sind Look, Sprache, Rituale und eigene Medien? Und warum verkaufen starke Marken nicht nur Produkte, sondern Gefühle? Außerdem geht es um die Frage, wie Unternehmer ihre eigene Markenidentität schützen können, gerade in einer Zeit, in der KI viele Inhalte glatter, perfekter und austauschbarer macht. Eine Folge über Personal Branding, Storytelling, Markenaufbau, Wiedererkennung und die Marketing-Matrix hinter großen Marken.

In der neuen Ausgabe von maydornsmeinung zeigt sich der Gesamtmarkt trotz Iran-Konflikt, Ölpreisen und Zinsunsicherheit erstaunlich robust. Positive Inflationsdaten aus den USA und ein starker Start der Berichtssaison sorgen für Rückenwind. Die Wahrscheinlichkeit weiterer Zinserhöhungen ist zuletzt deutlich gesunken. Im Fokus steht erneut der KI-Sektor. Die Investitionen der großen Technologiekonzerne in Rechenzentren und KI-Infrastruktur steigen weiter. Maydorn hält Nvidia inzwischen wieder für attraktiv bewertet, während er bei den stark gelaufenen Speicherchip-Aktien zur Vorsicht mahnt. Auch Nebius, Hut 8, Innodata und Penguin Solutions werden besprochen. Bei den chinesischen Tech- und E-Auto-Aktien bleiben Baidu, BYD und XPeng trotz guter operativer Entwicklungen bislang hinter den Erwartungen zurück. Zum Schluss geht es um den Kurseinbruch bei IBM und einen neuen potenziellen KI-Verzehnfacher aus Maydorns Börsenbrief.

Die Moderatoren oder der Verlag haften nicht für etwaige Verluste, die aufgrund der Umsetzung der Gedanken oder Ideen entstehen.

Isy kommt aus Hamburg und hatte mit Fahrradfahren eigentlich nichts am Hut, bis es spontan von Hamburg nach Den Haag ging, weil der Zug zu langweilig schien. Saskia, ebenfalls Hamburg, wollte schlicht wissen, was sie und ihr Rad in fünf Tagen leisten können. Die Antwort: die 1.000 Kilometer.Wir sprechen über den Start in Kiel, das miese Wetter der ersten Tage, den Moment in Albersdorf wo sich die Wege trennen – und was danach passiert. Isy fährt nachts singend durch ein Moor, weil die Lampe leer ist. Saskia entscheidet sich nach 900 Kilometern, lieber die Nacht durchzufahren als nochmal zu schlafen.Nils, der Organisator, erklärt, warum 40 Freiwillige, 180 Teilnehmende und vier Stunden Schlaf pro Nacht trotzdem irgendwie Spaß machen – und was er für 2027 plant.Viel Spaß!ShownotesIsy auf Instagram https://www.instagram.com/isy.tnk/Saskia auf Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saskiajoNils auf Instagram https://www.instagram.com/nilsthomsen/Hackenpedder auf Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hackenpedder/Hackenpedder im Web https://hackenpedder-bikepacking.de/ Quelle MusikTropic Fuse - French Fuse aus dem YT Creator Studio Quelle BilderGunnar Dethlefsen, Johann Kristan, Sarina Bruhn

Krieg in Europa, unbekannte Drohnen im Luftraum und eine Schweiz, die schlecht vorbereitet ist. Gibt die neue sicherheitspolitische Strategie die richtigen Antworten? Woher soll das Geld kommen und warum braucht's ein Staatssekretariat für Sicherheitspolitik? Fragen an dessen Chef, Markus Mäder. Die neue Sicherheitspolitische Strategie des Bundes will für «umfassende Sicherheit» sorgen. Noch aber ortet sie gravierende Lücken bei der Widerstandsfähigkeit, beim Bevölkerungsschutz und auch bei der Verteidigungsfähigkeit. Wie genau soll die Schweizer Bevölkerung resilienter werden gegen Desinformation? Woher soll das Geld kommen für die vorgesehenen Aufrüstungsbemühungen? Und wie kann die angestrebte internationale Zusammenarbeit mit der Neutralität unter einen Hut gebracht werden? Eine Möglichkeit, mehr Geld für Rüstungsvorhaben frei zu spielen, wäre – aus Sicht der SVP – das Staatssekretariat für Sicherheitspolitik, SEPOS, das erst 2024 geschaffen wurde, wieder zu streichen. Hat Markus Mäder den Sinn und Zweck seines Staatssekretariats zu wenig gut verkauft? Warum braucht's das SEPOS wirklich? Und, das SEPOS hat Ende Juni zudem die Eckwerte des geplanten Katastrophenschutzes veröffentlicht. Zivilschutz und Zivildienst sollen künftig zusammengeführt werden, zum Katastrophenschutz. Was bringt das? Und, wird dadurch der Zivildienst kurz nach dem relativ knappen Jahr zur Zivildienstreform weiter eingeschränkt? Markus Mäder, der Staatssekretär für Sicherheitspolitik nimmt Stellung in der Samstagsrundschau bei Klaus Ammann. Ergänzend zum Tagesgespräch finden Sie jeden Samstag in unserem Kanal die aktuelle Samstagsrundschau.

Der heimische Smart-Home-Zoo hat seine Tücken: Jedes Gerät bringt eigene Apps und Automatiken, die wiederum nicht mit Geräten anderer Anbieter sprechen. Mit Smart-Home-Hubs von Apple, Amazon und Google oder freien Lösungen wie Home Assistant lassen sich die smarten Insellösungen halbwegs unter einen Hut bringen. Doch viele Gadgets funken obendrein proprietär, sodass sich neben dem WLAN-Router einige Funkzentralen ansammeln. Dieses Chaos sollen die Standards Thread und Matter beseitigen. In dieser Ausgabe von c't uplink sprechen wir darüber, wie man Thread-Funk im eigenen Smart Home aufsetzt und stellen fest, dass viele Nutzer bereits Thread-Netzwerke haben, ohne es zu wissen. Zudem beleuchten wir, wie sich das herstellerübergreifende Kommunikationsprotokoll Matter im Alltag bewährt. Dabei zeigen wir, was bereits gut funktioniert, wo Probleme lauern und wie man sie löst. Mit IKEA ist obendrein ein großer Anbieter für den Massenmarkt auf den Thread/Matter-Zug aufgesprungen. Wir beschreiben, was die IKEA-Produkte leisten und welche Vor- und Nachteile sie mitbringen. Zudem besprechen wir, wie man Thread- und Matter-Geräte direkt in Home Assistant einbindet und sich damit die nicht ganz so günstige Thread-Funk-Zentrale des Möbelhauses möglicherweise sparen kann.

In der heutigen Folge von Diggytalk gibt es ein wunderbares Wiedersehen: Ich habe den großartigen Schauspieler, Musiker und Synchronsprecher Rainer Schöne erneut zu Gast! Schon bei unserem letzten Interview hatte er sie angeteasert, und nun haben wir echten Grund zu feiern: Seine brandneue Biografie „Immer Sehnsucht nach der Ferne“ ist veröffentlicht! Auf 465 Seiten blickt er auf acht Jahrzehnte eines prall gefüllten Lebens zurück – und das komplett „aus dem Hut“ geschrieben, ohne einen einzigen Blick in seine unzähligen alten Tagebücher zu werfen. Rainer nimmt uns wieder mit auf eine unglaubliche Reise und erzählt, wie eine harmlose Einladung der FDJ ihm ironischerweise die Republikflucht aus der DDR nach West-Berlin ermöglichte und wie ein kurzes Telefonat aus dem Flüchtlingslager ihm quasi über Nacht einen Plattenvertrag bei Udo Jürgens' Managementfirma einbrachte. Aber auch die wilden Kindheitsjahre kommen nicht zu kurz, wenn er lachend davon berichtet, wie er aus abgeworfenen Bomber-Benzinkanistern ein Kanu baute und damit beinahe in der Ilm ertrank. Neben seinen großen Hollywood-Jahren und der für ihn emotional wichtigsten Bühnenrolle in „Jesus Christ Superstar“ sprechen wir auch über sein spätes Vaterglück. Mit 64 und 70 Jahren noch einmal Vater zu werden, hat sein Leben komplett verändert und ihn letztlich dazu bewogen, Amerika den Rücken zu kehren. Natürlich kommen auch die Popkultur-Fans voll auf ihre Kosten: Rainer verrät, warum er heute auf Comic-Cons vor allem für seine ikonische Synchronstimme als Transformers-Anführer Optimus Prime gefeiert wird, und gibt uns direkt im Studio eine sensationelle Kostprobe. Begleitet uns durch ein vertrautes Gespräch voller Energie, Humor und Rainers inspirierendem Lebensmotto nach Nietzsche: „Man muss noch Chaos in sich haben, um einen tanzenden Stern gebären zu können.“ Hört jetzt rein!Viel Freude beim Zuhören – und folgt uns auf Instagram (@diggytalk) für exklusive Einblicke aus den Bereichen Hörspiel, Synchron und Film.Impressum: www.diggytalk.de/impressum.htmlBild © Sascha Wünsch© 2026 Diggytalk – eingetragene Marke von Dominik Grote Hosted on Acast.

Kaffee ist eines der meistgenutzten Getränke in Deutschland. Die Kaffeekultur wird immer vielfältiger, aber auch teurer. Teuer wiederum ist relativ, sagt Röstmeister Florian Müller. Er arbeitet im Bremer „Johann Jacobs Haus“ und ich hab ihn besucht. Bremer Kaffeekultur Wer Bremen sagt, muss auch Kaffee sagen. Der Grundstoff Kaffeebohne gehört seit mehr als einem Jahrhundert zu den Erfolgsgeschäften in den Häfen von Bremen und Hamburg. Logisch, wo Rohkaffee angeliefert wurde entstanden auch ganz schnell die Röstereien und so entstand neben der Abwicklung in den Häfen ein völlig neuer Produktionszweig – für Kaffee. In Bremen sind es die Namen Jacobs und Hag, die bis heute im wahrsten Sinn des Worts „in aller Munde“ sind. Bohne aufm Dach – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Johann Jacobs Einstieg geschah 1895. Er öffnete ein Handelsgeschäft für (damals sagte man) Kolonialwaren: Caffee, Thee, Cacao, Chocoladen und Bisquits“. 1907 folgte ein Kaffeerösterei und daraus wurde dann im Lauf von Jahrzehnten das Jacobs Kaffeeimperium (die „Krönung“ und Frau Sommer inklusive). Ein weiteres Beispiel ist der berühmte Kaffee HAG, langjährig das Synonym für koffeinfreien Kaffee. Das Produkt entstand per Zufall und wurde zum weltweiten Erfolg von Kaffeehändler Ludwig Roselius. Ja, das ist der Mann, dem die Stadt auch den Publikumsmagneten Böttcherstraße samt Glockenspiel und Museen zu verdanken hat. Dem Kaffee hat Bremen also jede Menge zu verdanken, auch wenn die Wandlung der internationalen Märkte dazu führten, dass internationale Konzerne das Sagen haben. Im Falle Jacobs ist es der niederländische Multi “Douwe Egberts”. Johann-Jakobs-Haus – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Geschichte und doch zwei verschiedene Dinge Das Johann-Jacobs-Haus, wo ich Florian besuche, steht genau an der Stelle, wo einst Johann Jacobs sein erstes Geschäft eröffnete. Das Nachfolgehaus wurde abgerissen und 2020 wurde das neue Johann-Jacons-Haus eröffnet. Es dient der Kaffeekultur, mit einem Café, einer Kaffeeakademie und einer eigenen Kaffee-Produktion mit Namen Rubiac. Florian Müller ist genau dort heute Röstmeister und Chef der Rösterei. Warum man mit dem Jacobs-Konzern nix mehr zu tun hat, trotzdem das Erbe eines Johann Jacobs pflegt, erzählt er mir im Podcast. Talk zwischen Röstung, Kaffeesäcken und Filtern – Foto: Andreas Behr, Johann-Jacobs-Haus Das Erlebnis Johann-Jacobs-Haus Eineinhalb Stunden waren eigentlich für die Erkundung vorgesehen. Als ich ging, waren zweieinhalb Stunden rum. Dabei habe ich nicht das Gefühl, alles erlebt zu haben. Florian hat mir viel Zeit geschenkt (Danke!) und so kann ich im Podcast diverse Inhalte umsetzen. Hier Alles zu erklären würde zu weit führen. Hört am besten einfach zu, was der Röstmeister so alles über die Kaffeeproduktion von heute erzählt. Ich habe gelernt, dass sich auch „Kaffeerösten“ digitalisieren lässt und trotzdem immer jemand bei Maschine und Produkt bleibt. Kaffee ist ein Naturprodukt und reagiert mitunter ganz anders als digital geplant. Im Haus röstet man Spezialitäten. Dabei gibt es selbst entwickelte Mischungen (Blends), aber auch Kaffeebohnen mit ganz unterschiedlicher Herkunft, Sorte und Behandlung der grünen Kaffeebohnen. Kaffee: Kleine Fachsimpelei Florian und “seine” Kaffees – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Wir haben über Kaffeekultur geredet, die natürlich unterschiedliche Röstprozesse und -zeit benötigt. Ich durfte zur Kenntnis nehmen, dass eine Profi-Siebträger-Espressomaschine schon mal 20.000 Euro kosten kann. Florian hat mich davon überzeugt, dass der im Lauf der letzten Monate stark gestiegene Kaffeepreis gerade mal so Kosten und Kleingewinn deckt. Der Produktionsprozess ist lang und es sind viele Menschen daran beteiligt, die alle für ihre Arbeit bezahlt werden wollen und müssen. Dazu gehören der Kaffeebauer, seine Mitarbeitenden oder auch der Kaffeeexporteur im Produktionsland. Dann muss der Transport bezahlt werden. Importeur und Kaffeeröster wollen davon leben. Die Röstung kostet Geld, genauso wie eine ansprechende Verpackung und letztlich will ja auch der Einzelhändler seinen Anteil. Ein wünschenswert-fairer Handel mit den Bohnen erhöht den Preis noch einmal. Das “Geschmacks-Spektrum” für Kaffeetester – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Ganz nebenbei: Wusstet Ihr eigentlich, dass es auch eine Kaffeesteuer gibt? Immerhin sind das pro Kilo Röstkaffee € 2,19. Das alleine sind schon genügend gute Gründe Florian zu treffen. Meine Zielsetzung: So viel wie möglich über Kaffee-Produktion und Rösten sowie Kaffee-Kulinarik erfahren. Ein bis heute wichtiger Faktor in Bremen.

Kaffeeakademie Dort wartet nicht nur professionelle Ausbildung, sondern es gibt reichlich Seminarangebote für Kaffee-Freunde. Die SCA (Specialty Coffee Association) bildet künftige Kaffeetester (Q-Grader) aus, aber auch Barista-Kurse für die Profis sind im Angebot. Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Kaffee-Laien kommen auch zu ihrem Recht und dazu gehört nicht nur krönender „Schnick-Schnack“, wie das Herz im Cappuccino-Schaum. So warten neben der Schulung in „Latte Art“, ein Espresso-Kurs, einer für die Sensorik und auch ein Filterkaffeekurs (inzwischen wieder im Trend). Meine Lerneinheit Es geht nicht nur darum, viele dumme oder auch kluge Fragen zu stellen. Ein wenig soll auch ich in die Kaffee-Kunst eingeweiht werden. Wir hatten uns entschlossen, in die Filter-Geheimnisse einzudringen. Dies ist neben den Kaffees auch der richtige Filter, das passende Papier, das beste Wasser und natürlich auch das Geschmacksempfinden. Der Blick hinter die Kulissen ist spannend. Erkenntnis: Filterkaffee ist nicht gleich Filterkaffee.

Die Exklusivmarke „Rubiac“ versammelt unterschiedlichste Kaffeesorten der ganzen Welt. Es geht nicht nur um Arabica und Robusta, sondern auch um die Herkunft von Kolumbien bis Brasilien, Indien bis Vietnam, Kenia bis Tansania, ganz zu schweigen von erlesenen Kaffees wie dem „Blue Mountain“ aus Jamaica. Ja, wir haben auch über den Katzenkaffee geredet. Florian Müller hält ihn für überflüssig und auch für Tierquälerei. Hört selber. Das Café im Erdgeschoss Ist für alle, die nur eine schnelle Stippvisite machen wollen. Auch hier kann man (im kleinen Rahmen) testen, besondere Kaffees probieren und hier gibt's auch Spezialgetränke (Florian hat dabei gegrinst) wie „Erdbeer-Matcha-Latte“, der ja nun mit Kaffee eigentlich nix am Hut hat. Kaffee in der Sonne: Das JJH-Café – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Wie auch immer, im Außenbereich des Jacobshofs, sitzt man äußerst nett und unter großen Sonnenschirmen.

In dieser Folge der A&O Hotline sprechen Olivia von Platen und Anahita Rehbein über die Themen, die viele Eltern beschäftigen – und bei denen es selten einfache Antworten gibt.Wie schützt man Kinder heute eigentlich richtig? Reicht es, Kinderfotos im Internet unkenntlich zu machen, oder geht die Diskussion längst weit darüber hinaus? Wir sprechen darüber, warum viele Eltern das Gefühl haben, ständig auf der Hut sein zu müssen, und fragen uns: Wo liegt die Grenze zwischen sinnvoller Vorsicht und unnötiger Angst?Außerdem geht es um die Frage, ob ein Kleinkind, das nackt am Strand oder nur in Windel spielt, wirklich ein Risiko darstellt – oder ob wir uns als Gesellschaft inzwischen manchmal mehr von den möglichen Tätern einschränken lassen als nötig. Wie viel Schutz brauchen Kinder wirklich, und wie viel Freiheit gehört zu einer unbeschwerten Kindheit dazu?Zum Schluss sprechen wir über ein Thema, das viel zu selten Aufmerksamkeit bekommt: die Schwangerschaftsdepression. Während über Wochenbettdepressionen inzwischen häufiger gesprochen wird, wissen viele gar nicht, dass depressive Symptome auch schon während der Schwangerschaft auftreten können.Eine Folge zwischen Alltag, Elternschaft, Bauchgefühl und den Fragen, auf die es oft keine perfekten Antworten gibt – dafür aber ehrliche Gedanken und jede Menge Gesprächsstoff.

Zum 66. Mal ist Rolf-Bernhard Essig in "Habe die Ehre!" zu Gast. Passend zur magischen Zahl dreht sich dieses Mal alles um Zauber- und Magie-Redensarten. Da wird der Ratsch mit Tom Viewegh sozusagen "aus dem Hut gezaubert".

For twenty-eight years he lived the ascetical life on Mt Athos as a disciple of St Gregory of Mt Sinai. Later, he founded the monastery of St Mamas, also on Mt Athos. In 1350 he was elected Patriarch of Constantinople. After four years, he resigned the patriarchal throne to return to the Holy Mountain, but was called back to the throne, where he remained until his death in 1363. He wrote the definitive lives of St Gregory the Sinaite and St Theodosius of Trnovo. He was known to St Maximos Kapsokalyvia (the Hut-burner), who foretold his death: On his final journey to Serbia, on which he died, the Patriarch stopped on Mt Athos, where St Maximos saw him and said, "This elder will not see his flock again, because I hear behind him the hymn over the grave, 'Blessed are those that are undefiled in the way...'"

„Naturschutz“ ist ein Thema, bei dem man oft suggeriert bekommt, dass man sich zwischen zwei scheinbar unvereinbaren Polen entscheiden müsse:  Entweder menschliche Nutzung – und damit mutmaßlich kein Naturschutz –, oder: man überlässt Natur ganz sich selbst und verwirklicht damit eine idealisierte Naturvorstellung, die in der Romantik des frühen 19. Jahrhunderts wurzelt. Die gelebte Praxis im Natur- und Landschaftsschutz des 21. Jahrhunderts versucht, die Ansprüche der Natur mit denen der menschlichen Nutzung unter einen Hut zu bringen. Wie das ausschauen kann, und welche Konflikte sich dabei ergeben, wollen wir uns anhand einer UNESCO-Modellregion für nachhaltige Entwicklung ansehen: Wir streifen durch den beeindruckend vielfältigen und artenreichen „Biosphärenpark Wienerwald“ –der einzige Biosphärenpark Europas, der in eine Millionenstadt hineinreicht. (Experte: DI Andreas Weiß, Direktor des Biosphärenpark Wienerwald Management)Wenn euch die Folge gefallen hat, freuen wir uns, wenn ihr unseren Podcast bewertet und abonniert (falls ihr das noch nicht gemacht habt).Feedback könnt ihr uns auch an podcast(at)ma53.wien.gv.at schicken.Folgt uns auf unseren Social Media Kanälen:https://www.facebook.com/wien.athttps://bsky.app/profile/wien.gv.athttps://twitter.com/Stadt_Wienhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/city-of-vienna/https://www.instagram.com/stadtwien/Und abonniert unseren täglichen Newsletter:http://wien.gv.at/meinwienheuteWeitere Stadt Wien Podcasts:Historisches aus den Wiener Bezirken in den Grätzlgeschichtenbüchereicast der Stadt Wien Büchereien

Falls ihr zum Beispiel gerade auf der Suche nach einem neuen Hobby seid, dann bekommt ihr hier heute Inspiration von Annika alias Annikazion! Sie ist Vollzeit-Creatorin. Die meisten kennen sie vermutlich von ihren Reaction Videos auf Youtube. Da kommentiert Annika Reality-TV-Formate und kritisiert zum Beispiel toxisches Verhalten oder feiert schöne Momente ab. Bis zu unserem Gespräch hab ich mich immer gefragt, wie sie es schafft, neben ihren Youtube- und Instagram-Kanälen noch SOVIEL andere Sachen nebenbei zu machen. Und damit meine ich nicht ihre große Leidenschaft für Sport - die hat sie nämlich auch. Ich meine eher, dass ihre Inhalte sich manchmal anfühlen, als würde sie jeden Tag ein anderes Leben leben. Mal lernt sie nähen oder Brot backen, dann radelt sie von München nach Wien, und am nächsten Tag bringt sie sich selbst bei, wie man Schlösser knackt. Die Antwort darauf, WIE sie das alles unter einen Hut bekommt, hat mich dann doch überrascht – genau wie die Tatsache, dass diese vielen verschiedenen Sidequests von Annika sogar mal der Auslöser für Ängste und Unsicherheiten waren.Außerdem habe ich für Annika auch wieder eine Überraschung dabei. Das hatte ja in der letzten Folge schon so gut geklappt, als zu Mirella Precek plötzlich noch Louis Klamroth auf die Bühne kam. Dieses Mal hatte ich eine Botschaft von Coldmirror dabei und hach, das war ein richtig schöner Moment.

Last time we spoke about the One Hundred Regiment Offensive. During Phase Three of the One Hundred Regiment Offensive, CCP forces in the Taihang/Jizhong area emphasized strongpoint attacks and transportation warfare. Rather than trying to defeat Japanese units head-on, they used tactics such as night raids and ambushes to disrupt Japanese supply routes and communications. The underlying goal was to make Japanese logistics unstable, weakening their ability to maintain control and conduct effective operations. After CCP successes, the Japanese responded with large-scale "mopping-up" operations beginning October 6. As the Eighth Route Army continued resisting, it adopted flexible methods to counter the Japanese sweeps, especially rapid repositioning and targeted ambushes. One notable action described involves an ambush of a Japanese convoy that caused substantial enemy losses, demonstrating how disrupting enemy mobility could blunt the effectiveness of larger Japanese operations. Overall, the situation remained fluid, with both sides continually adapting their tactics in an ongoing contest for control across occupied North China.   #205 The Hubei-Henan Campaign of 1940-1941 Welcome to the Fall and Rise of China Podcast, I am your dutiful host Craig Watson. But, before we start I want to also remind you this podcast is only made possible through the efforts of Kings and Generals over at Youtube. Perhaps you want to learn more about the history of Asia?

So please subscribe to Kings and Generals over at Youtube and to continue helping us produce this content please check out www.patreon.com/kingsandgenerals. If you are still hungry for some more history related content, over on my channel, the Pacific War Channel where I cover the history of China and Japan from the 19th century until the end of the Pacific War. By 1940, the war had settled into a grueling stalemate, with Japanese troops occupying vast swathes of central China, including parts of Hubei, but facing persistent Chinese guerrilla and conventional resistance that prevented total consolidation. In the aftermath of the Battle of Zaoyang in the summer of 1940, Japanese forces had secured the key cities of Yichang and Shashi along the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. Yet Chinese Nationalist troops of the Fifth War Area retained firm control over the vital territories east and west of the Xiang River. Their defensive lines formed a broad arc stretching from the southwest of Yuan'an through Jingmen, north of Zhongxiang, and the rugged foothills of the Dahong Mountains, extending northwest to Suixian. These positions straddled both banks of the Xiang River, anchored on the right by the Wudang Mountains and on the left by the Tongbai range. Working in close coordination with guerrilla detachments operating in the southeast, Chinese units repeatedly harassed the Japanese garrisons that had pushed into Yichang. The constant pressure on the enemy's flanks left the Japanese forces in Yichang and Shashi dangerously exposed and hemmed in, unable to expand or consolidate their gains. To the Japanese high command, this situation had become an intolerable thorn that demanded immediate removal.   Under Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, the Chinese Nationalist government faced severe strains as the war with Japan escalated. Its problems were not only military, but also political and economic. Deep ideological and territorial rivalries with the CCP meant that efforts to present a single front were constantly undermined. Although the two sides officially formed a United Front in 1937, earlier violence and competition, such as the 1927 Shanghai Massacre and the CCP's Long March of 1934 – 1935 had left distrust and strategic differences in place. As a result, Nationalist resistance was harder to coordinate than it would have been under full unity. Meanwhile, the CCP strengthened its position in northern China by expanding rural strongholds. Through land reforms and the use of guerrilla warfare, the communists were able to win local support and apply pressure to Japanese forces in ways that often did not require large, conventional armies. This strategy also drew influence and manpower away from the Nationalists' more traditional, state-centered military structure.   Economically, the Nationalists were squeezed from multiple directions. The loss of China's coastal industrial regions to Japanese occupation forced the government to rely heavily on the interior, with Chongqing becoming a key base. That geographic shift left the administration more vulnerable to shortages of critical supplies, especially raw materials, fuel, and modern weapons. On top of wartime disruption, the global Great Depression intensified fiscal and logistical difficulties, limiting how quickly and effectively the Nationalists could mobilize resources for large-scale operations. By late November 1940, these weaknesses intersected with renewed Japanese pressure. Japanese commanders were also concerned about the possibility of a major Nationalist push, particularly fears of a counteroffensive by the Thirty-first Army Group under General Tang Enbo.    Determined to break the stalemate, the Japanese launched a major offensive in late November 1940. Preparations had begun in earnest early that month. Engineers repaired and expanded highways and bridges, constructed new defensive works and airfields, and stockpiled vast quantities of rations, ammunition, steel-hulled boats, and rubber rafts in the Zhongxiang area. Five regiments were concentrated near Zhongxiang, while additional troops east and west of the Xiang River brought the total strength to more than three divisions. Along the Suixian–Xiangyang Highway, Japanese forces were reinforced to divisional strength, supported by increased artillery and tank detachments. These meticulous measures left no doubt that the enemy was ready for a large-scale operation.   By 23 November the Japanese had completed their deployments and moved into assault positions. The Japanese forces assigned to the Central Hubei Operation were placed under the overall command of Lieutenant General Waichirō Sonobe, who directed the campaign from his headquarters in Wuhan. Sonobe's 11th Army drew on a broad mix of formations, combining units from the 3rd, 4th, 15th, 17th, 39th, and 40th Divisions. The offensive backbone for the thrust into central Hubei province was reinforced by the 18th Independent Mixed Brigade, which helped supply the infantry strength needed for sustained fighting across difficult ground. In practice, this multi-division structure reflected the 11th Army's key mission in the region, acting as the main Japanese formation after the earlier Battle of Zaoyang and it emphasized coordinated divisional advances supported by attached brigades and specialized elements, including limited armored capabilities.   In terms of manpower, the Japanese force is commonly estimated at roughly 40,000 to 50,000 troops. This strength included several infantry regiments and artillery batteries, along with only limited armored elements rather than a fully armored formation. Because the operation depended on finding and exploiting opportunities quickly, it was supported by aerial reconnaissance and bombing carried out by the 3rd Air Brigade operating in central China. Infantry units formed the majority of the fighting power, while artillery was used to provide suppressive fire during advances. Air support, meanwhile, was intended to help identify and target Chinese positions—particularly along important riverine and rail corridors, where disruptions could slow resistance and complicate Chinese reinforcement or retreat.   To manage the operation across varied terrain and combat tasks, Sonobe's command used smaller combined formation often described as task forces, that could operate with some flexibility. Among them were the Kayashima Force, commanded by Major General Koichi Kayashima of the 18th Independent Mixed Brigade, consisting of the entire brigade reinforced by elements of the 40th Division. The Muragami Force, under Lieutenant General Keisaku Muragami, commander of the 39th Division, which included the full division plus supporting non-infantry units. The Hirabayashi Force, led by Lieutenant General Morito Hirabayashi of the 17th Division, formed from detachments of the 17th and 15th Divisions.The Kitana Force, commanded by Lieutenant General Kenzo Kitana of the 4th Division, incorporating portions of the 4th Division and the Kususe Armored Force. These four groups were deployed in parallel around Tangyang, Jingmen, Zhongxiang, and north of Jingshan. The Hanjima Force, commanded by Lieutenant General Fusataro Hanjima of the 3rd Division, positioned near Suixian along the Xiangyang–Hua Highway. This task-force approach helped tailor combat power to specific mission profiles—such as flanking movements, raids, or pressure on Chinese defensive lines—while keeping the overall campaign plan under a unified command.   Equipment choices also reflected the tactical environment of Hubei. The Japanese units made use of Type 95 Ha-Go light tanks for reconnaissance and for anti-infantry roles, typically best suited to the reconnaissance, pursuit, and screening functions that were available even with constrained armor numbers. For fire support, the force relied on conventional artillery, including 75mm Type 90 guns for field engagements and 105mm howitzers for heavier bombardment where stronger explosive impact was needed. Together, these assets were intended to allow Japanese formations to maneuver around Chinese positions and apply pressure in rugged landscapes where rivers, roads, and rail lines often determined the rhythm of battle.   Logistics were a decisive factor in whether the operation could sustain momentum. Sonobe's army depended heavily on existing transportation infrastructure, particularly rail lines radiating from the Wuhan hub toward forward areas such as Suizhou and Zaoyang. These routes were critical for moving ammunition, replacements, and other supplies closer to the front as the Japanese advanced. The campaign also used river transport along the Yangtze River, including motorized barges and steamers, to deliver supplies to units operating near waterways. However, reliance on these corridors came with risks: Chinese interdiction raids could disrupt shipments, forcing convoys to be escorted and increasing the time and resources required to keep the forward units supplied. Overall, this dependence on both rail and fluvial networks highlighted a central operational challenge, maintaining secure access to transportation arteries in contested territory so that the Japanese could keep fighting effectively rather than stalling as supplies dwindled.   The Central Hubei Operation was driven by an intelligence assessment that Chinese troop movements were signaling preparations for a Nationalist counteroffensive. Acting on that interpretation, the Japanese began tightening plans and positioning forces early in the final days of November 1940. On 23 November 1940, the Japanese 11th Army under Lieutenant General Waichirō Sonobe began organizing for the offensive in central Hubei. In order to conduct a coordinated advance across the Han River, the army arranged its forces into five groups, each tasked with moving in a way that supported the broader pincer-style pressure on Chinese positions. The approach also reflected lessons drawn from the earlier Zaoyang–Yichang campaign earlier in 1940, when Japanese divisions had been able to cross the Han River at multiple points, such as Dangyang, Jiukouzhen, and Shayangzhen—to help secure access toward Yichang and the Yangtze route. Logistics were built around infrastructure the Japanese had already established during prior operations. The Hankou hub supported the 11th Army through arrangements that included munitions storage, medical facilities, and transport coordination. Supplies and reinforcements were moved using truck convoys and river crossings, while forward depots—such as those at Shayangzhen northwest of Hankou—provided additional capacity, including freight handling and field hospitals. Because the area was not secure, these supply points were also guarded against threats from guerrilla activity, which could disrupt communications and threaten personnel and equipment.   Operationally, the offensive used limited artillery and air support, reflecting Japanese constraints and directives aimed at keeping the campaign short and avoiding commitments that could stretch units beyond their logistical reach. Instead of trying to grind down Chinese defenses through prolonged bombardment, the plan prioritized speed, reconnaissance, and focused disruption. Japanese intelligence preparation relied heavily on aerial reconnaissance over the Han River valley to locate Chinese positions and infer where resistance would likely concentrate. That information enabled Japanese units to coordinate select maneuvers, including converging pressure from different directions. Where river transport mattered, coordination with naval or riverine elements supported movement and resupply, with overall oversight connected to the China Expeditionary Army.   Anticipating the coming assault, the Chinese Fifth War Area headquarters acted swiftly on instructions from the National Military Council. Orders were issued to the River West Army Group (30th and 77th Corps), the Right Army Group (44th and 67th Corps), and the Central Army Group (41st and 45th Corps) to employ a flexible defensive strategy: hold key positions firmly while committing the main strength to strike the enemy's outer flanks at the decisive moment. The 59th Corps was directed to advance toward the Xiangfan area, ready to reinforce operations on either bank of the river as the situation developed.   As commander of the Fifth War Area, Li Zongren arranged the defense to meet a likely Japanese thrust along the Han River, particularly in the approaches to Wuhan and Yichang, following the wider stalemate that settled in after the 1938 fall of Wuhan. The Fifth War Area could draw on roughly 300,000 troops, though many units were understrength, and the overall readiness varied by locality. Among the formations Li Zongren placed in the most sensitive sectors was the 31st Army Group under General Tang Enbo, which Japanese planners had identified as a potential threat to Japanese intentions in the region. In keeping with the terrain and the limits on manpower, Li's defensive design relied heavily on natural barriers—most importantly the Han River itself—and on the defensibility of rugged ground. Forces were arrayed to hold or contest riverbank positions, supported by fortifications, trenches, and smaller auxiliary elements. Divisions such as the 44th were positioned with an eye toward slowing an enemy crossing and forcing the Japanese to fight for difficult approaches rather than moving rapidly. At the same time, irregular forces and prepared defensive works were used to complicate Japanese reconnaissance and to make it harder for the attacker to coordinate a clean operational flow. Strategically, Li Zongren leaned on elastic defense rather than attempting to win decisive battles at fixed lines. Regular units were supported by guerrilla-style harassment intended to strike Japanese vulnerabilities, especially supply and transportation, between forward bases and the front. Local operations, including actions coming from areas such as Xinyang, were designed to disrupt Japanese logistics in periods when the Nationalists were still managing shortages of ammunition and medical supplies. Militias in the inter-mountainous regions further reinforced this approach: instead of seeking costly frontal engagements, they concentrated on disruption, delaying movements, and making Japanese operations slower and more expensive.   At dawn on 25 November the Japanese offensive began, with columns advancing along multiple axes. On the western Xiangyang front, more than 1,000 troops from Tangyang and over 3,000 from Jingmen struck Hengdian and Yanzhimiao, shattering the positions of the Chinese 30th Corps. Simultaneously, a column moving from Zhujiafu toward Tunglinling split into several detachments and drove deep northward into Liangshuijing, Xiajiazi, and Kuaihuopu. By nightfall the River West Army Group had regrouped along the line from Hengdian through Yanzhimiao to Kuaihuopu. On 26 November the Japanese reached Xianzhu. The following day they assaulted Liuhouji and Lijiatang in a day-long battle that ended in stalemate. At dusk the 30th Corps launched a powerful counterattack; the 27th and 31st Divisions dispatched raiding parties into the enemy's rear. Unable to withstand the pressure, the Japanese fell back toward Jingmen and Zhongxiang, pursued by Chinese forces that inflicted heavy losses.   Along the Jingmen–Zhongxiang Highway the Japanese massed more than 3,000 troops to attack Changshoutian and Wangjiatian, encircling Changjiachi and Shahetian. The Chinese 149th Division withdrew in good order to the stronger Wangjiahe–Wulongguan line. On 26 November enemy strength grew to 4,000–5,000. One column advanced on Sanligang while the main body assaulted Peizhai, Wangjiahe, and Yunanmen. Fighting continued until dark without decisive result. On 27 November the main force of the 44th Corps counterattacked from Wangjiahe, converging with the 67th Corps advancing from the northwest. The coordinated assault inflicted severe casualties, yet the Japanese continued to fight stubbornly. On the Suixian front, more than 2,000 Japanese troops reached Liangshuikou on the morning of 25 November and launched a violent attack against the 123rd Division at Lishan. Two additional columns, each exceeding 1,000 men, pushed westward toward Hoyuantian and Qingmingpu; their numbers swelled steadily as darkness fell. On 26 November fierce combat raged against the 124th and 127th Divisions at Jinjishan and Qingmingpu. A separate force of 700–800 men advanced from Xihe via Langhetian to Tangjiafan. After clashing with the 41st Corps, the Japanese near Qingmingpu linked up with those at Jinjishan and moved toward Hoyuantian on 27 November. That night the detachment at Tangjiafan reached the vicinity of Huantan Zhen, confronting the 125th Division. Recognizing that the enemy had become dangerously dispersed, the War Area Command ordered its units to hold critical localities while the main forces exploited the mountainous terrain for ambushes. The tactic proved effective. Heavy fighting continued until 28 November, when the Japanese, unable to achieve their objectives, began a general withdrawal. Chinese forces west of Xiangyang immediately took up the pursuit. The enemy opposing the Right Army Group was routed and retreated along several routes. In the Suixian sector, Japanese units at Hoyuantian and Huantan Zhen were caught in converging attacks by the Central Army Group, driven back to high ground, and encircled. In a desperate attempt to relieve the trapped forces, the Japanese rushed 1,500–1,600 infantry and cavalry troops from Suixian and Yingshan through Shangshitian and Shatian in a flanking maneuver—only to be ambushed once more. Covered by aircraft and armor, the enemy withdrew toward Suixian and Xihe as Chinese troops pressed forward along the line from Chunchuan to Anchu, Lishan, and Gaocheng. By 30 November all Chinese Army Groups had restored their original positions.   The Central Hubei Operation produced uneven battlefield outcomes, particularly in reported casualties. Japanese accounts describe relatively limited losses, just 132 killed and 445 wounded attributed to advantages in air superiority, artillery, and armored support, even though the advance was complicated by difficult terrain. At the same time, Japanese forces faced persistent Chinese counterattacks along the Han River, which contributed to localized pressure and eventual withdrawal. The Japanese reported 6,439 Chinese killed  and 474 captured, but the evidence base is uncertain and the language of reporting suggests possible exaggeration or propaganda. Conversely, Chinese-era estimates reportedly placed Japanese losses at roughly 5,000 killed and 7,000–8,000 wounded, illustrating a substantial gap between competing narratives. Some alternate reconstructions suggest total Chinese casualties in the range of 20,000–30,000, depending on whether wounded and missing personnel are included. However, because wartime reporting was fragmented and inconsistent, there is no fully verifiable casualty ledger for all units involved.   Despite these tolls, the operation did not appear to achieve a decisive Chinese destruction of Japan's intended target force. The Chinese Fifth War Area, including elements associated with the 31st Army Group under Tang Enbo, suffered attrition but generally avoided annihilation. No major command-level losses are indicated in the surviving accounts, and unit formations were not described as collapsing permanently. On the material side, Japan reportedly seized rifles and supplies from positions that Chinese forces had encircled or abandoned in the short term, but overall equipment losses for either side were described as limited, consistent with the operation's restricted intensity.    Strategically, the operation offered Japan short-term tactical advantages—notably through localized envelopments and the temporary pressure of combined-arms support—but it failed to translate these gains into a sustained strategic result. The fighting also strained Japanese logistics in central China, especially given that the offensive was not followed by major reinforcements. At the same time, it exposed continuing vulnerabilities in rugged terrain where Chinese guerrilla activity and organized counteraction could offset superior firepower.   Ultimately, the Central Hubei Operation produced no net territorial gains. By the end of the week, Japanese troops had returned to positions that did not fundamentally alter control in central Hubei. Local clashes may have disturbed formations and disrupted movement temporarily, but the campaign did not create durable forward bases, did not change administrative control meaningfully, and did not permanently disrupt key supply corridors. The territorial status quo largely persisted: Chinese Fifth War Area forces maintained positions north of the Yangtze River, and there was no widespread abandonment of strongholds sufficient to indicate a strategic collapse.   In the months following the Japanese repulse in central Hubei in November 1940, enemy forces remained largely immobilized across the Jing-Xiang plains, their earlier ambitions checked by determined Chinese resistance. Seeking to regain momentum and draw Chinese strength away from other theaters, the Japanese high command prepared a massive offensive into southern Henan in late January 1941. By the end of the month they had concentrated an imposing array of seven infantry divisions, one independent cavalry brigade, three independent armored regiments, and one independent artillery regiment. In all, more than 150,000 infantrymen, over 8,000 cavalry, 550 artillery pieces, 300 tanks, and 200 armored cars stood ready. Over a hundred aircraft were massed at forward bases in Anyang, Xinxiang, Huaiyang, and Xinyang. From early January onward, ammunition and equipment had been laboriously shipped up the Yangtze and moved inland to Xinyang, while Japanese reconnaissance planes repeatedly overflew Chinese rear areas. Additional troops were concentrated in southern Henan itself.   On 20 January, as a preliminary move to pin down Chinese forces and facilitate the main effort in central Henan, the Japanese 18th Independent Mixed Brigade, together with elements of the 39th and 4th Divisions, launched a limited attack against the Chinese 29th and 33rd Army Groups. The principal assault, however, began on 24 January under the overall command of Lieutenant General Katsuichiro Enbu. The Japanese organized their southern Henan forces into three powerful columns: The Left Flank Force, built around the entire 3rd Division reinforced by the 8th Regiment of the 4th Division and the Mizuno Armored Unit, commanded by Lieutenant General Fusataro Hanjima of the 3rd Division. The Central Force, centered on the 17th Division (less one regiment) and strengthened by the 67th Regiment of the 15th Division and the Yoshimatsu Armored Unit, commanded by Lieutenant General Amaya of the 40th Division. The Right Flank Force, formed around the main body of the 40th Division, also under Lieutenant General Amaya.   In support of this main thrust, Japanese forces in northern Anhui and eastern Henan—principally the 4th Cavalry Brigade with the Hirabayashi Tank Regiment—advanced westward from Haozhou toward Woyang. The Ouda Regiment of the 21st Division pushed west from Suzhou, while the Uguchi and Kobayashi Regiments of the 35th Division, accompanied by engineer, cavalry, artillery, and tank units, moved from Kaifeng, Tongxu, and Zhuxian Zhen along the north bank of the Yellow River and through the flooded areas toward Zhengzhou. These supporting columns were intended to tie down Chinese reserves and prevent reinforcement of the southern front.   The National Military Council in Chongqing correctly assessed the enemy's intention: to drive north along the Beiping-Hankou Railway with their main strength, force a decisive battle against the Chinese field armies, and rely on the northern Anhui–eastern Henan forces to strike westward in coordination. Accordingly, the Council instructed the Fifth War Area to avoid a costly frontal engagement. Instead, a small portion of its troops would offer delaying resistance along the railway, while the main force would maneuver to the enemy's flanks and rear, severing communications and launching devastating counterattacks. In compliance, the Fifth War Area left only a single division near Xiping on the Beiping-Hankou line. The bulk of its strength—carefully concealed in depth on both sides of the enemy's expected axis of advance—remained highly mobile, ready to strike the Japanese flanks or rear the moment the enemy divided his forces or pushed toward Runan, Yancheng, or Wuyang. This elastic strategy proved decisive.   At dawn on 25 January the Japanese southern Henan forces advanced in three columns. The Left Flank Force moved along the line from Xiaolindian to Gucheng and Chashan. The Central Force struck northward from the Minggang area. The Right Flank Force crossed the Huai River between Huaijiao Zhen and Chengyang under heavy air support. Japanese planes bombed Chinese positions relentlessly. True to plan, Chinese units employed only light screening forces to harass the enemy with ambushes and flank attacks, preserving their main strength for the decisive moment.   By 26 January the Japanese had reached the line from Piyang to Gaoyi, Xingtian, and Queshan. On the 27th they pressed on to Chunshui, Shahetian, and Zhumadian. At this point Chinese mobile forces sprang into action. The 13th Corps of the 31st Army Group swung northward toward Xiangheguan, while the main body of the 85th Corps moved toward Shangcai to begin an enveloping maneuver. The 68th Corps of the 11th Army Group struck the enemy rear south of Xiangheguan; the 55th Corps advanced from Tanghe to Piyang; and the 59th Corps of the 33rd Army Group pushed toward Nanyang. On 29 January the 13th Corps attacked the Japanese Left Flank Force near Jieguanting and Xiaoshidian south of Wuyang, while the 85th Corps struck the Right Flank Force around Runan, southeast of Shangcai. The enemy's Central Force, advancing along and west of the railway, found the Chinese positions already evacuated and failed to trap any major units. The Japanese columns on the extreme flanks suffered over 3,000 casualties and lost six tanks in the fighting around Jieguanting.   By 31 January the enemy, desperate to rescue his exposed flank columns, reordered his forces. The Central Force executed turning movements on both sides: elements of the 15th Division swung right from Suiping through Shangcai to converge with troops moving north from Runan against the 85th Corps, while the main body of the 17th Division split into two columns and advanced from Suiping through Xiping toward Wuyang. Simultaneously, the main force of the 3rd Division and part of the 4th Division also converged on Wuyang, hoping to link with the 17th Division and crush the 13th Corps near Jieguanting and Xiaoshidian. Before the trap could close, however, the Chinese 13th and 85th Corps withdrew in good order to the area north of Ye Xian, between Yancheng and Shangshui, and north of the Sha River. When the Japanese broke through at Wuyang and Shangcai they found no major Chinese forces to destroy.   Meanwhile, Chinese troops from western Henan, the 59th, 55th, and 68th Corps, advanced from Tanghe, Piyang, and points north to strike the enemy rear at Wuyang. On 29 January the 84th Corps and local guerrillas in western Anhui recaptured Chengyang and continued the pursuit. The Japanese, having failed to concentrate superior strength or control the battlefield, now found themselves isolated. Their rear communications were severed, and they were under constant pressure from the 68th, 55th, and 59th Corps. After days of exhausting combat the enemy began to withdraw southward on the night of 2 February. Leaving only rear guards at Wuyang and Baoanzhai to tie down the 13th Corps, the main body of the 3rd Division moved from Fangcheng toward Nanyang and Zhenping. The 13th Corps immediately counterattacked, recaptured Baoanzhai and Wuyang, and pursued the enemy toward Fangcheng.   On the night of 2 February, as the Japanese main force approached Nanyang, the 17th Division together with elements of the 15th and 4th Divisions had already pushed south from Wuyang via Xiangheguan toward Piyang, hoping to link with forces moving east from Nanyang and trap the Chinese 68th, 55th, and 29th Corps. Fierce resistance by the 68th Corps near Xiangheguan inflicted heavy losses and forced the enemy to abandon large quantities of supplies. Further south, the 29th Corps exacted still greater casualties around Piyang. On the night of 7 February the trapped Japanese column split: part retreated along the Tanghe–Piyang highway, while the main body withdrew along the Tongbo–Xinyang highway toward Xinyang, leaving many dead behind. The Chinese 85th Corps pursued southeastward, while elements of the 13th, 29th, 55th, and 59th Corps harried the enemy toward Xinyang. By the time the fighting ended, all Chinese units had regained their original positions.   In coordination with the southern Henan offensive, the Japanese forces in northern Anhui and eastern Henan advanced westward in four columns on the morning of 25 January. The Ouda Regiment of the 21st Division struck west from Suzhou. The 4th Cavalry Brigade, reinforced by the Hirabayashi Tank Regiment, split into three routes from Bozhou to attack Woyang, Shanheji, and Shuangqiao, clashing bitterly with a Chinese cavalry division near Shizihe and Niqiuji. The Uguchi Regiment of the 35th Division advanced through the flooded areas from Tongxu and Zhuxian Zhen, while the Kobayashi Regiment moved westward along the north bank of the Yellow River near Zhengzhou. Japanese aircraft intensified their bombing of Chinese cities and front-line positions, including Zhoujiakou, Zhengzhou, Yancheng, Ye Xian, Xiangcheng, Wuyang, and Luoyang. On 29 January one enemy column reached Santaiji and suffered heavy losses under Chinese attack. Threatened on the left by forces near Huaiyang, two Chinese corps withdrew temporarily to the line from Fuyang to Taihe and Jieshou. On 5 February the Japanese captured Taihe and Jieshou, but a Chinese counterattack on the morning of 6 February regained both towns, forcing the enemy to retreat northeastward.   The Battle of Southern Henan, which opened on 25 January and concluded on 10 February after seventeen days of continuous fighting, ended in a clear Chinese victory. Japanese casualties exceeded 9,000; when the enemy withdrew from Nanyang more than 300 military vehicles were left burning on the battlefield. Large quantities of arms, ammunition, and supplies fell into Chinese hands. Chinese losses were significantly lighter. The enemy had hoped to force a decisive battle along the railway and shatter the Chinese armies of the Fifth War Area. Instead, skillful Chinese maneuver, timely flank attacks, and relentless pressure on the enemy's rear and communications had turned the Japanese offensive into a costly failure. The victory not only preserved the integrity of the central Chinese front but also demonstrated once again the effectiveness of elastic defense and mobile counteroffensive tactics against a numerically superior but overextended foe.   In the wake of their costly repulse in central Hubei the previous November and the even more humiliating defeat in Southern Henan between late January and early February 1941, the Japanese sought once more to regain the initiative in the spring of 1941. Their target was western Hubei, where Chinese forces continued to deny them freedom of movement along the middle Yangtze. The entire Japanese 13th Division garrisoned the Yichang salient. Its regiments were deployed in a defensive arc: the 65th Regiment and the 19th Artillery Regiment held positions east of the city at Longchuanpu, Tumenya, and Yaqueling; the 104th Regiment guarded the northwest approaches; and the 17th Cavalry Regiment patrolled the Yangchalu–Baishanao sector. On the west bank of the Yangtze, the 58th Regiment had constructed strong bridgehead fortifications between Chaojialing and Shangwulongkou, ready to support any renewed thrust westward.   Facing this entrenched enemy was the Chinese 26th Corps, entrusted with the critical mission of river defense on the west bank of the Yangtze opposite Yichang. The corps commander had organized his forces into three sectors. The 41st Division held the right zone, anchoring its line from Mujiatian and Tanjiataizi northward to the vicinity of Fanjiah u. The 32nd Division defended the left zone, stretching from Mujiatian through Ceyang to Xiangzikou. The 44th Division remained in corps reserve near Caojiafan, poised to reinforce either flank or exploit opportunities for counterattack.   On 6 March 1941 the Japanese struck. Having quietly reinforced their forces west of Yichang to more than three regiments, supported by cavalry and artillery, they opened the assault at 5:30 a.m. with a violent artillery barrage, followed immediately by infantry advances under cover of air strikes. Chinese security positions at Tanjiataizi and Chaojiadian were overrun. The enemy then hurled itself against the main line at Changgangling. Simultaneously, 600 to 700 Japanese troops, backed by planes and guns, assaulted Fanjiah u. After hours of bitter fighting both localities fell. On the morning of 7 March, Japanese aircraft again spearheaded the attack, enabling the capture of positions at Qianjiatai and Wujiaba. The enemy pressed on toward Qianjiachong and Yutaishan but was thrown back. Meanwhile, the force that had taken Fanjiah u clashed fiercely with the Chinese 44th Division around Taipingqiao; although the division was eventually compelled to withdraw to the eastern end of the bridge under relentless air attack, it continued to resist stubbornly. When the enemy seized Hut zeye from the direction of Fanjiah u, the 32nd Division fell back in good order to the line from Tunziqiao to Tuyanzhong, where it beat off further assaults. By this stage the Japanese had driven themselves into a dangerously narrow salient, exposed on both flanks.   Seizing the moment, the River Defense Force reorganized its lines. The 103rd Division of the 8th Corps relieved the sector from Mujiatang through Yingzishan to Chaotianguan, while the 26th Corps consolidated new positions at Yutaishan, Pijiashan, Qingshuiba, Guangongling, and Xiaopingshanba. The plan was clear: hold the enemy east of this line, then launch a converging counterstroke to destroy the invaders and restore the original front. On 8 March two guerrilla columns from the 41st Division struck at Changgangling and Fanjiayuan, while another detachment hit the enemy east of Pifengjian. More than 2,000 Japanese troops assaulted the 44th Division's positions from Gaolingpo and Dajiaobian toward Wanghuzizhong; determined resistance by the 44th Division, supported by elements of the 41st, brought the attack to a standstill. Later that day the enemy managed to penetrate the 32nd Division's line at Tianwangshi, forcing Chinese troops to fight a delaying action along the outskirts of the Shibai Fortress from Mingjiachong to Heitangou.   Dawn on 9 March brought renewed Chinese initiative. The 103rd Division occupied the line from Tutiling to Shizinao and advanced in several columns against the enemy. A portion of the 44th Division waged a grim holding action on the high ground flanking Guojiaba, suffering heavy losses but buying time for the main body to launch a powerful flank attack against the Japanese at Taipingqiao and Xianglingkou. By dusk Chinese forces had captured the enemy strongpoints at Dujiaoba and Dajiaobian along the highway, annihilating numerous enemy troops. The 32nd Division threw its main strength against the area northwest of Dajiaobian; heavy fighting raged around Wanghuzizhong into the afternoon until enemy reinforcements were driven off. The 41st Division, meanwhile, executed effective flank attacks that yielded significant gains. On 10 March the 103rd Division recaptured the high ground at Xiawulongkou and north of Tianzipo, while guerrillas of the 41st Division continued to harass the enemy through every gap in his lines. When positions at Hongshipo and Lungtanping held by the 44th Division were breached, the division withdrew to the western heights of Bomuping and faced the enemy anew.   At dawn on 11 March, after suffering severe casualties, the Japanese resorted to smoke screens and began withdrawing eastward along several routes. Chinese pursuit forces swiftly retook Xianglingkou, Guojiaba, Guangongling, Tianwangshi, and Dajiaobian. By 12 March the enemy had fallen back to a defensive line running from east of Taipingqiao to Hu z'ai and Huangnikeng. On 13 March Chinese units launched general counterattacks. Unable to withstand the pressure, the Japanese retreated to their original positions. The eight-day engagement thus ended exactly where it had begun.   The battle had been fought with only a portion of the available Chinese forces, yet it proved decisive. The Japanese, who had hoped to crack the river defenses and resume their westward drive, instead suffered 4,000 to 5,000 casualties. The swift and skillful Chinese counteroffensive not only restored the front but left the enemy shaken and apprehensive. Their design to push deeper into western Hubei was decisively thwarted, buying precious time for the broader Chinese war effort in the Yangtze theater and demonstrating once again that determined defense, timely reinforcement, and aggressive counteraction could blunt even the most carefully prepared Japanese offensive.

In November 1940, a Central Hubei Operation using five task forces attempted to exploit Chinese dispersal but achieved no territorial gains despite local successes. A larger January 1941 offensive into southern Henan deployed 150,000+ troops but again failed strategically. Despite Japanese tactical advantages and superior firepower, logistical constraints and rugged terrain favored mobile Chinese resistance. Both campaigns ended with Japanese withdrawals and restored Chinese positions, demonstrating that determined defense and timely counteraction could blunt large-scale Japanese operations.

Keine konkrete Gefahr, kein Säbelzahntiger weit und breit – und trotzdem fühlt sich der Körper an, als müsste er ständig auf der Hut sein. Ein inneres "Was, wenn …", das als Hintergrundrauschen permanent mitläuft. Beim Einschlafen, beim Arbeiten, im Alltag. Viele kennen dieses Gefühl – und wollen es möglichst schnell loswerden. Aber wir sollten Anxiety nicht als Feind sehen, sondern lernen, ihr besser zuzuhören, rät die klinische Psychologin Pauline Stockmann. In dieser Folge machen wir deshalb genau das, was sie mit dem Titel ihres kürzlich erschienenen Buches fordert: "Lass mal über Anxiety reden!" Wir sprechen darüber, warum so viele Menschen dieses permanente Alarmgefühl kennen und warum der Kampf gegen die eigene Angst oft alles noch anstrengender macht.

I have written thousands of words about the joys of eating hot dogs, so when Memorial Day rolls around, this serious eater's thoughts immediately turn to the humble frankfurter. A couple of years ago we had my friend and fellow food writer J.J. Goode on Special Sauce to talk about our love for the hot dog in all its forms, including the many regional styles we both have encountered along the way. We talked about hot dog styles both ubiquitous and obscure, from the famous Chicago hot dogs with french fries on top at Gene and Jude's near O'Hare Airport to the deep-fried hot dogs poetically known as rippers at Rutt's Hut in Clifton, N.J. So to honor this most humble of foods from around the country and the world as we head into Memorial Day weekend we decided to reheat one of J.J.'s terrifically entertaining and informative episodes about our mutual love of hot dogs. And just for the record I still have two Gray's Papaya hot dogs for lunch a couple of times a week. Please don't tell my cardiologist...or my wife.

Diese Folge startet mit einer Frage, die wahrscheinlich mehr Eltern beschäftigt als man zugeben möchte

Pizza Hut is back, baby. Or at least that's what this episode's aggressively passionate pizza debate would have you believe. The gang dives headfirst into America's favorite pizza chains and things immediately go off the rails when Pizza Hut somehow lands at number one. Suddenly everyone becomes a food critic, nostalgia expert, and marketing strategist all at once. Rafe is out here defending the honor of the Hut like he's on the payroll, Moon is declaring war on nostalgia culture entirely, and Scott refuses to believe anyone actually eats Pizza Hut voluntarily. It's the exact kind of chaos you expect from a comedy podcast where absolutely nobody stays on topic for more than 45 seconds.But that's only the beginning. The crew tumbles into an entire conversation about retro Pizza Hut locations returning with the classic red roofs, Tiffany-style lamps, red plastic cups, Book It rewards, buffet memories, and enough emotional damage to keep millennials talking for another decade. Somehow this evolves into a full-blown sociology lecture about why people crave familiar things while the world feels insane. A daily podcast has never spent this much time discussing buffet pizza architecture, and yet here we are.Then things get wonderfully suburban. The gang swaps stories about growing up with taped-up wiffle ball bats, playing sports in the street until someone yelled “CAR!”, and fishing sewer-soaked tennis balls out of drains because nobody could afford to lose one. Riz realizes his son doesn't even know what a wiffle ball bat is, which immediately launches the entire room into a collective identity crisis about modern childhood. There are stories about homemade rules, neighborhood rivalries, taped handles, chalk hockey goals, and all the weird little things that made growing up in the 80s and 90s feel legendary. It's weirdly wholesome for a comedy podcast filled with sarcastic degenerates.Elsewhere in the episode: rainy day complaints, travel chatter, neighborhood stories, online roasting from family members, and enough random tangents to completely derail any attempt at structure. There's also celebrity chaos sprinkled throughout the show including stories about Macho Man Randy Savage, Peter Cetera getting punched over his hair, old-school music nostalgia, and a discussion that somehow turns into imagining Chicago songs soundtracking deeply uncomfortable family road trips. Normal morning radio stuff, obviously.This episode is basically what happens when a bunch of adults realize they're emotionally attached to chain pizza restaurants and childhood street games. It's messy, sarcastic, loud, nostalgic, and exactly why this daily podcast continues to feel like hanging out with your funniest friends at a bar that definitely smells faintly like ranch dressing.If you love weird news, sarcastic humor, St. Louis chaos, pop culture nonsense, hilarious fails, celebrity gossip, and wildly unnecessary arguments about pizza quality, welcome home.

Summer cometh: the grills get scraped clean, the buns are split, and hungry Americans get set to boil or broil their wursts, wieners, and sausages. In the summer of 2021, Jamie Loftus drove from coast to coast, tasting the vast array of hot dogs that America has to offer, consuming as many as four a day—and in one notable (or regrettable) instance, five. Chicago-style and the Coney Island special; drive-through and deli; chili and chile: Loftus devoured them all. Her ensuing book, Raw Dog: The Naked Truth About Hot Dogs, brings the glory and the gory. It may be the first to detail not only the different genders of pickle jars one can buy at a gas station, but also the horrific treatment of animals and workers at slaughterhouses, conditions that got distinctly worse during the pandemic. Loftus—stand-up comedian, TV writer, and creator of such illustrious one-season podcasts as “My Year in Mensa” and “Ghost Church”—joins us to talk about the wild world of that iconic American food.This episode originally aired in 2023.Go beyond the episode:Jamie Loftus's Raw Dog: The Naked Truth About Hot DogsProPublica's exposé of the meatpacking industry during Covid revealed awful conditions, and government collusionDelight your senses with PBS's classic A Hot Dog ProgramA few of the varieties mentioned in this episode:The Texas Tavern (not in Texas)Hungarian hot dogs … in ToledoThe baloney-wrapped hot dogs at Attman'sWhat'll ya have at the Varsity?Ben's Chili Bowl, where half-smokes and chili dogs reignThe Sonoran hot dogBut Loftus's top five are:Rutt's Hut in Clifton, New JerseyHot Dog Ruiz Los Chipilones in Tucson, ArizonaKing Jong Grillin in Portland, OregonThe hot dog carts across the street from the Crypto.com Arena, or near Union Station in Los Angeles, CaliforniaTexas Tavern in Roanoke, VirginiaTune in every other week to catch interviews with the liveliest voices from literature, the arts, sciences, history, and public affairs; reports on cutting-edge works in progress; long-form narratives; and compelling excerpts from new books.
