These five words were like a thunderbolt that passed through Ririn Qiaolong's mind, instantly shocking him. He instantly remembered a taboo term that had been circulated within the Japanese army over the years.
For the Japanese government, Heihachi Ihara and the Japanese National Defense Forces led by him are a thorn that stabs deeply into the hearts of all Japanese people, pricking the nerves of all senior Japanese military officials all the time.
In order to remove this thorn, the Japanese base camp issued strict orders to the First Army stationed in Shanxi, ordering them to resolutely and completely eliminate this rebel army.
But the problem is that the Japanese National Defense Army is stationed in the suburbs of Liantai County, Shanxi. It is protected by the Liantai Militia, the Shanxi-Sui Army and the Eighth Route Army bases. If a large force is dispatched, the surrounding Shanxi-Sui Army will have to be bulldozed layer by layer.
Only with the Eighth Route Army can we reach Liantai County.
If we really want to do this, we don’t have to say whether we can kill the National Defense Army, but it will definitely cause another all-out war in Shanxi.
But if a small force is dispatched, it is just to deliver food. After several years of development, the Japanese National Defense Army has grown into a force of nearly a thousand people, which is no longer something that a small force can eat.
The most troublesome thing for the Japanese army is that the National Guard Army is not just a disgusting thing created by Gao Hongming. Since its birth, it has been deployed many times in succession, disguised as the Japanese army... No, this army was originally composed of the most authentic Japanese army.
Composed of soldiers.
They pretended to be Japanese troops, harassed everywhere, destroyed strongholds across Shanxi, attacked lone Japanese troops, and succeeded every time.
The Japanese army was in panic all over Shanxi. The final result was that the Japanese army strongholds in Shanxi and the armies and even units in the county met each other. If they were not familiar with each other, they would repeatedly confirm each other's identity, check everyone's documents, and
Asking superiors for verification to identify the authenticity of the opponent's identity, etc., made the garrison troops everywhere miserable and full of complaints.
Fortunately, although this force is rampant, it has always been active only in Shanxi. Unexpectedly, it actually came to Myanmar today.
Looking at the face opposite him with a sly smile, Kuribayashi Hashiryu gritted his teeth and said, "Ihara Heihachi...are you the traitor who formed the National Defense Army?"
Ihara Heihachi shook his head repeatedly: "Traitor? No... I am not a traitor. I am just a poor man who wants to return to his hometown alive. And you also said one thing wrong... that is, I did not form this army.
It was established by the great and wise general."
When the name General was mentioned, the original cunning and ferocious look on Ihara Heihachi's face disappeared, replaced by a kind of fanatical belief.
Kuribayashi Hashiryu believed that he was absolutely right. This kind of fanaticism was not unfamiliar to him, and he was very familiar with it, because this kind of fanaticism was very common in the Japanese army, and when this kind of fanaticism appeared, it was often associated with one person.
That person is their Emperor Hirohito.
Ihara Heihachi stood up and walked slowly to Kuribayashi Hashiryu, speaking slowly but his pitch suddenly rose several degrees.
"Kuribayashi-kun, do you know? I was just an ordinary farmer's boy.
Even after four years as a soldier, I am just a small superior soldier. My biggest wish in this life is to survive on this cruel battlefield, use the meager salary I saved to return to my hometown, and marry a less ugly wife.
Continue to cultivate the few acres of paddy fields passed down to me by my father.
But even with such a small request, those high-ranking officials would not let me fulfill it.
Just because I offended my squadron leader, he deliberately blocked my retirement application for more than half a year. He made up his mind to let me die in China. Do you know how much I hate that bastard?"
When he said this, the deep hatred in Ihara Heihachi's eyes made even Kuribayashi Hashiryu couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
"In the end, my unit was defeated by the army led by the General. I was surrounded when I was escaping. I raised my hands and surrendered immediately.
Originally, I thought I would definitely be killed by the General, but instead of killing me, the General made me the commander of the Japanese National Defense Army.
He told me that he would let me serve as an official as large as I could expand the national defense army.
In the future, he will lead us back to Japan in great glory, and each of us will be able to return to our hometown. Not only will we be able to return home with a full career, but we will also have an official position. Do you know how excited we are?"
Seeing the fanatical expression on Ihara Heihachi's face, Ihara Heihachi felt a chill surge from the bottom of his heart, and he suddenly shouted hysterically.
"Crazy... you are all crazy... don't you know that the Japanese Empire cannot be defeated?"
"It's impossible to defeat?" Ihara Heihachi was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Hahaha... Since it's impossible to defeat, how did you become my prisoners?"
Ruribayashi Kashiryu was so angry that he struggled to stand up and roared: "That's because you used despicable means and we were fooled!"
"Snapped!"
Seeing Kuribayashi Hashiryu trying to stand up, the Japanese Protector Army soldier standing behind him gave him a rifle butt in the back and knocked him to the ground on the spot.
"mean?"
Ihara Heihachi seemed to have heard the best joke and couldn't help laughing: "Is it so despicable that the Navy attacked Pearl Harbor in the United States without declaring war? Is it so despicable that you used the excuse of a soldier's disappearance to launch the Peking Marco Polo Bridge Incident?
Despicable?"
Kuribayashi Kyoryu angrily yelled: "Are you still a warrior of the empire? The reason why the empire launched the Peking Incident and attacked Pearl Harbor was to achieve co-prosperity in Greater East Asia!"
"Just tell me, is this just a sneak attack?"
Faced with Ribayashi Hashiryu's anger, Ihara Heihachi just asked another question lightly and told him to shut up.
Yes, no matter how he excuses and beautifies the behavior of the Japanese military, it cannot change the fact that the Japanese like to engage in undeclared wars and carry out sneak attacks.
"To use a Chinese proverb, a crow should not despise a pig, and we don't need to argue here about who is more despicable.
Now, in accordance with the purpose of the National Protective Army, I would like to ask you on behalf of the Japanese National Protective Army that those who are willing to join our National Protective Army and become one of us please come forward."
A long time passed, but no one stood up. Most people lowered their heads, but soon someone cursed.
"Baga, you traitors will definitely be punished. The Imperial Japanese Army will never let you go!"
"Bah, stop dreaming, we will not surrender."
For a moment, many captured soldiers from the garrison started yelling and swearing.
"Yoshi...very good."
Seeing someone scolding them, Ihara Heihachi smiled instead of getting angry. He waved his hand, and soon a group of National Defense Army soldiers rushed into the prisoners and dragged more than ten people out of the crowd.
"Kill them!"
Ihara Heihachi just said something softly, and then he saw more than a dozen soldiers of the National Defense Army stabbing the prisoners with their Type 38 rifles with bayonets attached without hesitation...
