The Japanese 5th Division, which was Seishiro Itagaki's division, officially began to attack Linyi.
Itagaki Seishiro, a Japanese Army general, was known as the "Ishihara's wisdom" in the Japanese army. He was an important Japanese general in the Showa era and one of the Class-A war criminals of World War II. In 1931, he and Ishihara Wanji jointly planned the "Nine-Nine"
Incident of October 18th. Because the Northeastern Army implemented a policy of non-resistance and evacuated the Northeast without firing a single shot, it challenged the 200,000 Northeastern Army with 10,000 people. In 1937, it defeated more than 30 Chinese divisions with half a division and captured
Shanxi. In June 1938, he was appointed Minister of War. He advocated the Three Kingdoms Alliance. In September 1939, he was appointed Chief of General Staff of the China Expeditionary Forces. He presided over the work of inducing surrender to China. In 1943, he was appointed as the Supreme Military Counselor. In 1945, he worked with the British in Malaysia and Singapore and other places.
The Dutch army fought until Japan was defeated. On December 23, 1948, he was sentenced to hanging by the International Military Tribunal for the Far East.
Therefore, Zhou Weiguo's target this time is Itagaki Seishiro. For such a person, Zhou Weiguo has no reason to let him go.
"This time, our target is the division commander of the Japanese 5th Division, Seishiro Itagaki," Zhou Weiguo looked at everyone and said, "This man is a lieutenant general of the Japanese army."
When Zhou Weiguo finished speaking, everyone began to get excited, "Lieutenant General!"
"Master's seat!"
"No, it's the captain!"
"Captain, what's the specific plan?" Zhang Yong asked, "With so many Japanese troops, we don't know which one is Itagaki Seishiro." Zhang Yong, captain of the Third Special Forces Team, is good at sniping and is careful, calm and calm.
"We are not specifically involved in the defense of Linyi. According to the strength of Linyi's defenders, they can still defend for a few days. Moreover, the central government will not ignore Linyi and will definitely send reinforcements. Therefore, we only need to carry out our plan.
." Zhou Weiguo analyzed, "The special forces are lurking during the day."
"yes!"
"Later, I will lead a team to find out the details of the little devil." Zhou Weiguo said.
"Captain, we want to go too!" Xu Hu and Zhang Yong said at the same time.
Zhou Weiguo teased, "Are you going too? Are you at your level of Japanese?"
When they mentioned Japanese, Xu Hu and Zhang Yong remembered the scene of learning Japanese last month. If they were not afraid that the thugs would affect their shooting, Zhou Weiguo would have swollen their hands. The two of them blushed, and then
No more words.
The First Squadron is the group of people who speak the best Japanese in the special operations team. Zhou Weiguo is the captain of the First Squadron, and Liu San is the deputy captain. Moreover, the First Squadron only has 13 people, which is the organization of a Japanese army squad, which is convenient.
Explore the situation.
"Okay, you should be careful at night so as not to be discovered by the Japanese army. Just stay outside to meet others." Zhou Weiguo said, "It's still early now. Everyone is looking for a place to rest and refresh themselves. Do you understand?"
"yes!"
…
21:00, March 8, 1938
"Captain, the Japanese army has stopped attacking." Liu San walked to Zhou Weiguo and said, "The casualties of the national army are still quite high, but the little devils are not happy either."
"Well, third brother, have you found out about the little devil's camp?" Zhou Weiguo said, "It's still early now. It will be 12 o'clock in a while. Let the brothers fill their stomachs again, and then set off on time at 1 o'clock."
"okay."
…
March 9, 1938 1 o'clock
Zhou Weiguo led a detachment to change into the Japs' clothes and equipment, and then walked towards the Japanese camp. He said something in Japanese, "All subsequent communications will be in Japanese."
"Hi, Captain." Everyone said.
Zhou Weiguo and others then quietly entered the Japanese camp from a deserted corner, and immediately, 13 people lurked.
Zhou Weiguo looked around carefully, and then made a few gestures, meaning that since everyone was staying here, he would go and investigate first. After everyone nodded, Zhou Weiguo jumped out alone, moving like a cunning rabbit.
Zhou Weiguo followed a patrol silently. He needed to obtain a password. In the military camp, whether entering or exiting or patrolling, passwords were required. At this time, there were almost no Chinese soldiers who could speak Japanese.
There are translators who translate for Japanese people, but they are basically civilians and are vulnerable.
Five minutes later, the patrol followed by Zhou Weiguo encountered another patrol.
"Password!"
"Under Mount Fuji! Return the order!"
"The cherry blossoms are in bloom!"
Zhou Weiguo shook his head. The Japanese have always regarded Mount Fuji as a sacred mountain, and the cherry blossoms under Mount Fuji are also praised by the world. Unexpectedly, even the password is this. When I watched the Snow Leopard TV series, I thought the Japanese were quite artistic. Now I see it.
Come on, in addition to having a relatively middle-class Bushido spirit, the Japanese also have a bit of a literary flair.
Soon, Zhou Weiguo returned to where Liu San was and said in Japanese, "Get up and patrol."
"Hi."
The Japanese patrol teams are also divided into time periods. It is impossible for several teams to patrol for one night. Moreover, a division has more than 10,000 soldiers, and patrols are sent out by several regiments. Therefore, among the Japanese patrol teams,
are not familiar with each other.
Zhou Weiguo and others were walking in the Japanese camp, just like a patrol of soldiers, walking openly. Then, they met a patrol head-on. Zhou Weiguo said, "Command!"
"Under Mount Fuji! Return the order!"
"The cherry blossoms are in bloom!" Zhou Weiguo replied, "Oh, thank you for your hard work. It's almost 2 o'clock."
"Yes, I feel so sleepy." The sergeant opposite yawned and said, "I can rest in half an hour."
"Ah, I really envy you. I have just started patrolling." Zhou Weiguo looked jealous.
"Haha, daddy!" the sergeant laughed.
"Now, which alliance are you from?" Zhou Weiguo asked.
"I'm from the 21st Wing, how about you?"
"I am from the 41st Regiment." Zhou Weiguo replied. He had already figured out several regiments under the Japanese 5th Division, namely the 11th Infantry Company (Hiroshima), the 21st Company (Hamada), the 41st Infantry Regiment
Company (Fukuyama), the 42nd Company (Yamaguchi), and most of the soldiers are from Honshu, Hiroshima, Shimane, Yamaguchi and other places in the western region of Japan. "There was nothing wrong with the place you just patrolled."
"Of course it's nothing. The Chinese people are already trembling under the iron heel of our Imperial Japanese Army. What can happen to the arsenal?" the sergeant on the other side replied.
A smile appeared at the corner of Zhou Weiguo's mouth, and then he said, "In that case, I'll just give it a try." He handed the Japanese soldier a pack of cigarettes.
"You." The sergeant on the other side laughed, looked at the cigarette handed over by Zhou Weiguo, took it, and then waved, "Hey, I'm leaving. Come on."
"Yes." Zhou Weiguo also waved his hand and said immediately, "Everyone has the target and the arsenal, let's set off."
