At 10:11 on March 19, 1938, inside the Linyi County Government
"So, your army intends to redeem the remains of your warriors." Zhou Weiguo said with a smile. At this time, he was sitting in the first seat on the left, while Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun were in the upper seats.
"Hi, yes. We will definitely recover the remains of the warriors and bring them back to the country to reunite with their relatives." Murakami Keigo, the Japanese commander, said.
"That's okay. Pay the money first. After paying the money, I will immediately arrange for someone to help you collect the remains of your warriors." Zhou Weiguo said calmly.
"Yes, Mr. Zhou misunderstood." Murakami Keigo said quickly, "Although our army must redeem the remains of the warriors, is the price too high?"
"Is it high? The money your army received in Nanjing is far more than tens of millions." Zhou Weiguo raised his eyebrows. He remembered that during World War II, while Japan trampled all Asian countries with force, it persistently and secretly implemented a plan. The main organizers of the "Golden Lily Plan" to plunder the wealth of occupied countries were members of the royal family. On the eve of Japan's defeat and surrender, tens of thousands of tons of treasure were hidden throughout the Philippines or sank to the bottom of the sea with shipwrecks. And this amount Wealth supported Japan's economic recovery after the war, which was called a miraculous recovery. Of course, the occupied countries in Asia lost more than just gold, silver and jewelry. China alone lost billions of dollars worth of porcelain. , works of art, ancient fossils, thread-bound books, religious relics, etc. The Japanese army during the war were like greedy robbers. With the logic of robbers, everything belonging to others is worth grabbing. In Nanjing, the first execution of Operation Golden Lily The one is the gendarmerie. The gendarmerie special operations team was dispatched to search everywhere, seize all Chinese government property, blow up bank warehouses, and rob rich and middle-class businessmen and other people of gold, gems, jewelry, art and currency. .For more than 1,000 years, Nanjing has been a wealthy city. Many wealthy and status Chinese people have villas in Nanjing and other real estate in the suburbs. This is not the first time that Nanjing has been looted by its conquerors, but this time it was was carried out most carefully and systematically. It is said that at this stage, the secret gendarmes collected at least 6,000 tons of gold. Historical research on the subject shows that the officially reported amounts of looting are often only a fraction of the actual amount. There are also countless Small gold nuggets, platinum, diamonds, rubies, sapphires, works of art and antiques that the Chinese like to store have also been robbed. These come from private families and graves in rural areas. Although there is no massacre in Nanjing today, robberies still occur. .After all, Japan occupied Nanjing, and that was their spoils of war.
"What did Zhou Jun say?" Murakami Guigo began to sweat on his forehead. Indeed, he heard many colleagues say that they gained a lot of wealth in Nanjing.
"If your army is so insincere, please come back. I will ask my men to throw all the warriors of your army into the mountains." Zhou Weiguo said nonchalantly.
Murakami Keigo looked at Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun, who were sitting in the seats. He knew that those two were the deciders, and both of them were commanders of the national army.
Zhang Zizhong picked up the tea cup and blew on it without saying anything. The same was true for Pang Bingxun.
As a China expert, Murakami Guigo understood the meaning of Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun, serving tea to see the guests off. Generally, after the guests sit down and the tea is served, the host will not ask the guests to drink tea, or signal the guests to drink tea. This It is different from drinking. If the host wants to see off the guest, he will pick up his tea bowl and signal the guest to drink tea. At this time, it means seeing off the guest. At this time, the guest cannot leave immediately, but must respond to the host's invitation. , picked up the tea bowl, looked at it, sat upright again, and then said goodbye.
Immediately, Murakami Guigo couldn't sit still and said, "Mr. Zhou, is there really no room for negotiation?"
Zhou Weiguo shook his head and said, "Is it because the price I gave is not fair enough? Isn't a major general worth 10,000 silver dollars? Or is a soldier not worth 300 silver dollars? If your army really thinks so, I will immediately send a report to the world.
It means that your army feels that a major general is not worth 10,000 silver dollars, and a soldier is not worth 300 silver dollars."
"Mr. Zhou!" Murakami Keigo stood up immediately, then bowed and said, "Please think twice!" Then he straightened up and said, "Is 10 million silver dollars okay? When doing business, there are always discounts and benefits for the first time. This time
How about erasing the change?"
At this time, Zhang Zizhong was relieved to hear this, but Pang Bingxun was surprised.
"Really? Does your army sincerely want to do business?" Zhou Weiguo said coldly, "I think you are here to delay time. Huzi, drag this man down and shoot him!"
"yes!"
Murakami Guigo looked at Liu San and Xu Hu, who were like two door gods behind Zhou Weiguo, and was frightened for a moment. The task given to him by the headquarters was indeed to delay time, because soon, the troops would arrive in Linyi and move this China
The troops were wiped out. With no one to take on this kind of mission, as a China expert, Murakami Keigo had no choice but to come.
"Wait!" Murakami Guigo broke into a cold sweat and said, "Mr. Zhou, please let me contact the headquarters."
"Okay, tell them not to play secret tricks. Those are the leftovers used by our ancestors. I can guarantee that once you play tricks, the remains of your warriors will fly into oblivion~" Zhou Weiguo said with a smile, "
Third brother, do you know why?"
"Oh, because I placed nearly 2,000 kilograms of explosives under the pile of Japanese corpses~" Liu San said with a sly smile.
"Nani?" Murakami Guigo was refreshed by the shamelessness of Zhou Weiguo and others, "Zhou Jun, I will contact the headquarters immediately. Please wait."
Immediately, Murakami Keigo walked out of the living room.
Zhou Weiguo and others looked at each other, smiled, and said, "This time, I'm afraid the little devil is really going to bleed."
…
"What do you think, Murakami-kun?" said a man wearing a Japanese lieutenant's military uniform.
At this time, Murakami Keigo was standing in front of a Japanese lieutenant, hunched over, "The other side has seen that we are stalling for time, so we must prepare money to redeem the bodies of the warriors."
"In that case, let's redeem the bodies of the warriors first," the man said ferociously. "When we defeat them, the money will still come back to us. Go ahead."
"Hi, Wakali Masita." Murakami Keigo said respectfully, "Then I will agree to their conditions."
"Go ahead."
…
Before Murakami Guigo returned to the living room, Liu San also came back quickly, and then said something in Zhou Weiguo's ear.
Zhou Weiguo nodded, and then waited for Cunshan Guiwu to come in again.
"Mr. Zhou, our headquarters has agreed to your army's conditions." Murakami Guigo said, "Then, we will not take the initiative to start a war during the delivery of the remains, and we also ask your army to protect the remains of our warriors.
"
"Haha. This is natural." Zhou Weiguo laughed, "After all, it's all money!"

March 19, 1938 12 o'clock
The Japanese army and the Chinese army issued statements at the same time, saying that the deal was concluded and the war would be suspended until the handover of the remains was completed before continuing.

Chongqing
"Hahahahaha, it's so happy!" the chairman laughed, "It's been a long time since I've been this happy."
"It's really fun!" Dai Li also said, "But, principal, so much money?"
When the Chairman heard this, he hesitated, "It's indeed a lot of money, enough to equip many troops. But they also paid for this money with their own lives. It wouldn't be good for me to ask for it."
"Principal, I don't think Zhou Weiguo and the others dare to keep them all," Dai Li said.
"That's true."
…
Yan'an
"It's really done!" the great man said in surprise.
"It's true that young people are terrible!" Mr. Zhou said, "Our people just came back from the news from the National Army. It is said that the leader this time is the young man named Zhou Weiguo."
"Oh?" the great man wondered, "Isn't it the 59th Army and the 40th Army?"
Mr. Zhou shook his head and immediately explained to the great man.
Half an hour later, the great man said, "So, Zhou Weiguo is a talented person."
"Not bad. He has a flexible mind and is eclectic in his work. He also studied at the Berlin Military Academy in Germany. He has extremely high military qualities and is a very good commander."
"Well, arrange for someone to make contact." The great man said, "I remember that a major general brigade commander of the national army sold us a batch of equipment and medicines years ago."
"Yes."
"Let's buy some more equipment. We can't always let the national army shine on the battlefield!" said the great man, "otherwise we will not be in the hearts of the people!"
"good."
…
March 21, 1938
After the handover was completed, Zhou Weiguo indeed received more than 10 million silver dollars. The corpses of the Japanese soldiers injured by the poison gas were also transported away.
When the last car carrying the body left the sight of Zhou Weiguo and others, the buzzing sound of airplanes was heard in the sky.
