"What, the old devil Saito Risaburo was captured alive!"
A scream sounded in the headquarters of the 400th Division. [This article comes from ]
It has been a week since we arrived at the Jiangmen front line. As the commander of the 300th Division, Su Rui is extremely busy. Since Liang Zhi has to be stationed in Maoming for central dispatch, Su Rui is so busy on the front line that he doesn’t even have time to sleep. He is commanding at the same time.
While fighting, he also has to coordinate with the rear. Suri now sleeps less than five hours a day. If it weren't for his youth and good health, he would have fallen down from exhaustion.
Starting yesterday, he finally defeated the 18th Division and commanded the 398th and 399th Divisions to conduct the final general attack on the 38th and 48th Divisions. He was eating dinner when he received news from the front line.
, Lieutenant General Saito Risaburo, the commander of the Eighteenth Division, was actually captured alive. This news shocked him to the core.
In Suri's memory, Japanese soldiers rarely had the habit of surrendering. After a battle that resulted in tens of thousands or even 100,000 casualties, only a few hundred Japanese soldiers could be captured alive, and that was before they lost their ability to resist.
Under such circumstances, even the Japanese army would be hard-pressed to find a handful of people like Shota Ishida who surrendered voluntarily.
Now someone actually reported to him that a lieutenant general's division commander had been captured alive. This news was as shocking to Suri as a magnitude 7 earthquake had occurred under his feet.
"Is everything you said true?" Su Rui glared at Li Jinling in front of him in disbelief, "You have to understand that I can't spare you if you lie about the military situation!"
Li Jinling, who hurriedly came to report to Su Rui, gave a wry smile: "Military seat, how dare I lie to you? After receiving the news, I verified it three times before finally confirming it. Now I have sent a team of people to take the truck.
Bring Saito Risaburo back, I think you can see him tonight."
"Wait... let me calm down." Su Rui was a little uneasy. He breathed heavily, sat down, took out a pack of Hardmen from his pocket, lit it and took a deep breath.
I smoked one-fifth of a cigarette before blowing out a long puff of smoke.
"F*ck, seeing how noisy this is, even history has begun to change." Su Rui was both happy and a little scared. Originally, it was a good thing to capture the enemy chief alive. But Su Rui felt that with the arrival of his butterfly,
, history has deviated from the track and begun to sail towards another unknown. Whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, Su Rui doesn't know, but the only thing he knows is that it has absolutely nothing to do with him.
After thinking for a while, Su Rui left the cigarette butt on the ground, stepped on it hard with the sole of his shoe, and then thought: "Well, never mind! I'm just here to fight the devils, right? There's something wrong with thinking too much."
Use it, do it first and then talk about it."
Su Rui turned his head and said to Li Jinling: "Chief of Staff Li, you immediately order the troops to go to the rescue. We must bring Saito Ritsaburo back safely, and don't let anything happen to him. I still have to deal with this old devil."
it works."
Li Jinling answered without hesitation: "Yes!"
"By the way, who captured Saito Ritsaburo alive?"
Li Jinling replied with a look of surprise and disbelief: "They are two soldiers from the 654th Regiment of the 400th Division. They are all soldiers who have been in the army for less than a year. The highest rank is a corporal, and one is a first class private."
Speaking of which, they were lucky. The day before yesterday, when they were chasing the Japanese army's retreat, they discovered a massacred village. Enraged, they chased after them, and finally accidentally discovered Saito Risaburo and his division commander.
After a fierce battle, the old devil Saito Risaburo was captured alive."
"So that's it!" Su Rui nodded and said, "That's it, but you're not entirely right when you say they're lucky. If they didn't have that hard work, they wouldn't have made such a big contribution. You know, luck alone is not enough.
No, you need to have the courage and strength to match it, otherwise if it were the other two people, they might not dare to attack an enemy ten times stronger and win."
Li Jinling nodded repeatedly: "Well, that's the same reason!"
"Let's do this." Su Rui thought for a while and ordered: "When the two soldiers come back, in addition to the bounty of a thousand oceans given to them, I will give them another reward, or two choices, either a military rank
Upgrade two levels on the spot, or you can enter the officer crash training course that was launched some time ago for three months."
When Li Jinling heard this, he couldn't help but asked with surprise, "Sir, is this reward too..."
Suri smiled, "Is it too rich? I don't think so. You must know that they captured a lieutenant general. Since the Anti-Japanese War, have you heard of any lieutenant general who captured the Japanese alive? Let alone the lieutenant general.
, there aren’t even many lieutenants, right?”
"Yes, that's right." Li Jinling nodded: "If this news gets out, the Japanese will be completely embarrassed. But sir, do we need to report this matter to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek?"
"Of course we have to report!" Suri smiled, "How can we do it without reporting? We not only have to report to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, but we also have to notify the major media and ask them to take photos of Lieutenant General Saito Ritsaburo Saito.
This matter has spread all over the world. God has left such a good opportunity to me. If I don't take advantage of it, wouldn't I be very sorry for God's gift?"
The Chinese generals of this era were more influenced by Chinese traditional culture and were particular about doing things, but Su Rui was different. What era was that in later generations? It was an era of no morals and no limits. What Su Rui did in later generations was
He seemed so normal to me, but in Li Jinling's eyes he looked so unscrupulous.
Seeing Su Rui's smile, Li Jinling couldn't help but shudder. His military position was too evil. Forget it, he should just pretend not to see such a thing.
"Report!"
"Come in!"
"Emergency call from the Fifth War Zone!"
Just when Li Jinling was about to leave, a staff officer came in and handed a telegram to Su Rui. When Su Rui saw the telegram, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face. The telegram was from Chief Li, and he
I told him about the meeting held by the chairman of the committee the day before yesterday, and solemnly warned Su Rui to be careful about his personal safety.
Seeing the sadness on Su Rui's face, Li Jinling couldn't help but asked curiously: "Sir, what happened?"
Su Rui sighed slightly and handed the telegram in his hand to Li Jinling. Li Jinling took the telegram and looked at it, his face suddenly showed a hint of solemnity and a hint of indignation: "Sir, is this true? The Central Committee actually
Are you so afraid of us that you would threaten your personal safety?"
Su Rui said calmly: "This is not surprising. Our strength has grown too fast and has made the Chairman feel afraid. He will naturally have other ideas. This is normal. I mentioned this when I started building the arsenal.
I've expected it, but this is human nature and I understand it."
Li Jinling: "But what we are fighting now is a national war. Hasn't the Chairman considered this?"
Su Rui shook his head: "Chief of Staff Li, you have to remember that the Chairman is not only the leader of a country, but he is also a politician. If he didn't even have this vigilance, he wouldn't be where he is today!"
"But... but..." Li Jinling wanted to continue, but Su Rui waved her hand, "Okay, let's not discuss this topic anymore. Now you immediately send someone to escort Saito Ritsaburo back to me.
Remember, don’t die to him. With him in hand, we can write the next article, do you understand?"
"yes!"
Li Jinling was not a fool. Seeing that Su Rui was obviously unwilling to discuss this topic, he wisely stopped mentioning it and began to arrange manpower to support Saito Ritsaburo's men in the Asian Games...
Ever since the profession of journalists appeared in this world, many things in the world have spread very quickly. Three Japanese divisions were defeated and fled in Jiangmen, and the news that the commander of the 18th Division, Saito Ritsaburo Saito, was captured quickly spread like wildfire.
, when the news spread, not only did the whole of China start to get excited, it even spread to Japan.
"Baga Yalu, shame... This is the shame of the Japanese Imperial Army!"
"A dignified lieutenant general division commander was captured alive by the Chinese. Saito Risaburo was not worthy of being an imperial soldier. When faced with the danger of being captured, even a private knew to commit suicide by caesarean section.
Why don't you have a caesarean section for a lieutenant general! Saito Risaburo has disgraced the Emperor of Japan! How do you want me to explain it to His Majesty the Emperor?"
In the base camp in Tokyo, Japan, Prince Kanin Miya Zaihito waved his arms and cursed with spittle. His voice was so loud that it was impossible to tell that this was the voice of an old man in his seventies.
.
Next to him, the newly appointed Prime Minister Seishiro Sakagaki, Director of Education Hisao Nishio and others were sitting at the side, not even daring to express their anger. Defeating the battle is not terrible, especially losing at the hands of Suri and the Three Hundred Army.
This is nothing new. But three divisions were defeated together, and even the division commander was captured by the enemy. This is a big deal. Looking at the modern history of the Japanese army, there has never been such a defeat.
, this is an unprecedented record.
Prince Zairen cursed for a while, then gritted his teeth and said to Sakagaki Seishiro: "Sakagaki-kun, is there a telegram sent from Koso Seishiro? Is he planning to shirk responsibility again?"
Sakagaki smiled bitterly and said: "Your Excellency Prince, there is indeed a telegram sent by Furuzo Chiroro, but this time he did not shirk his responsibility, but asked to resign from the base camp!"
"What? Please resign!"
After hearing this, Prince Zai Ren's anger not only did not subside, but intensified, "This idiot always resigns. Did the empire send him to China just for sightseeing? Tell him, I don't approve of his resignation.
, and let him immediately re-mobilize his troops to recapture Jiangmen and eliminate the three hundred troops!"
After Prince Zai Ren finished speaking, he punched the table hard, making a heavy sound!
ps: Thank you Pastor Huanhuan, ad5432 for the reward!
