At 6 p.m., Matsushita Muichi walked out of the headquarters after processing the documents.
"Hey, Tanaka-kun, izakaya?" Matsushita Kiichi said to Tanaka Saburo. This was the person who invited him to dinner at noon. Although the military rank was colonel, he was just one of the many staff officers in the headquarters. But Matsushita Kiichi did not
It's the same, even though he's only a lieutenant, he actually has the trust of Shunroku Hata.
"Hi, right now, please wait for me for a moment." Tanaka Saburo said immediately. Soon, he took his things and walked out of the room.
"Are you so busy today?" Matsushita Kiichi asked Tanaka Saburo.
"Hi, the Commander asked some people to question him today, but as a result, their work fell on me." Saburo Tanaka replied helplessly, "It's really miserable."
"It's quite miserable." Matsushita Muichi smiled, "I was also called for questioning. Judging from the content of the questioning, it seems that there is a Chinese spy in the headquarters, and some information has been leaked."
"Nani? No way?"
"I don't know either, it's just a feeling, because the commander asked me about intelligence matters." Matsushita raised an eyebrow and said, "But it's already night, so don't worry about it.
Drinking is the important thing."
"That's right, Yoshi, let's go to the izakaya izakaya!"
…
"Matsushita-kun, I really envy you." After drinking a few glasses of wine, Tanaka Saburo said to Matsushita.
"Why? You are now a colonel, a senior officer!" Matsushita Muichi asked, puzzled.
"The empire's war in China has suffered a series of setbacks recently, and I have been thinking about the battle plan." Tanaka Saburo said, "The problem is that we don't know a lot of intelligence at all, especially the intelligence of the independent division. Many of our troops use them
As if it were the same as other Chinese troops, it ended up suffering a huge loss."
"Zhou Weiguo?" Matsushita Muichi said immediately, "Yes, when I was sorting out documents, I often saw this name."
"Hey, according to my analysis, Zhou Weiguo has directly killed and injured nearly 500,000 imperial warriors." Saburo Tanaka sighed, "I don't know why many troops in the empire still don't pay attention to such an enemy."
"The previous telegram sent by His Majesty the Emperor even recommended Zhou Weiguo to be the leader of the Chinese people." Matsushita replied, "From this point of view, it makes sense."
"Hey, I think so. If the Chinese people had such talents a long time ago, why would they become like this?" Tanaka Saburo drank a glass of wine and said, "I think we must correctly analyze all the characteristics of Zhou Weiguo.
To evaluate the possibilities and combat effectiveness he brings, and the impact and trend on the war, we must not underestimate him."
"I think so too."
"Really? Come on, have a drink! Matsushita-kun, you are truly my soulmate!"
Matsushita Kiichi smiled, raised his wine glass, and then clinked it with Tanaka Saburo's wine glass and drank a glass. Japanese sake, in his opinion, does not taste good, but after drinking it for a long time, he slowly
Just got used to it.
"Come again, come again!" Tanaka Saburo poured another glass of wine for Matsushita Muichi, and then said, "So, I was sorting out the information and analysis about Zhou Weiguo today, and I discovered something."
"What?"
Tanaka Saburo then looked around, and then moved his fingers. Matsushita Muichi put his head close to Tanaka Saburo. Tanaka Saburo then said in Matsushita Muichi's ear, "I discovered that Zhou Weiguo may have magic!"
"Pfft..." Matsushita took a sip of wine and spit it out.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Saburo Tanaka looked at Matsushita Kiichi with dissatisfaction and said, "What are you doing?"
"Magic? Don't be funny, okay?" Matsushita Muichi rolled his eyes and said, "Do you think this is possible?"
"I don't think it's possible either!" Saburo Tanaka said in frustration, "But without this explanation, many things cannot be explained!"
"If you can't explain things, there must be something you don't know. How can magic exist in the world?" Matsushita Muichi said immediately, "If you report it like this, I guess you will end up as a consultant!"
"So, I don't even dare to say it!" Tanaka Saburo said depressedly, "Sometimes, I even doubt myself."
"Magic doesn't exist. You can tell me, and I will analyze it for you. This will save you the trouble of submitting the report and being laughed at by everyone."
"That's fine." Tanaka Saburo said immediately, "That's right. The first time I felt strange was when Zhou Weiguo and others retreated from Nanjing and arrived in Suqian, Jiangsu Province. At that time, Zhou Weiguo must not have many people with him.
"
"Um."
"The strange thing is that with a small number of them, they captured a bandit den near Suqian."
"What's so strange about this? After all, Zhou Weiguo is the general of China's central line of troops. The equipment and combat effectiveness must be much higher than those of ordinary bandits." Matsushita Muyi said disapprovingly.
"That's what I say, but do you know how many places they have to pass from Nanjing to Suqian? You know, when they passed through places like Yangzhou, the empire had already been captured."
"Then?"
"I don't know what to say. The second point is that he was recruiting troops in Suqian. How could he equip the troops in such a short period of time? Guns? Ammunition? These are astronomical figures and they also require
time."
"That's true, but isn't Zhou Weiguo's uncle Zhou Jixian? You know, the Zhou family has a large number of shops in places like Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the Zhou family's funds are beyond our imagination."
"Having said that, let's not think about the financial issue, but the time issue is obvious." Tanaka Saburo said, "The time is too short. Even if he has the money to buy back these equipment from abroad, it will still take time to transport them."
"Zhou Weiguo studied in Germany." Matsushita Muichi said, "I think many things cannot be inferred using common sense. He may have such means and channels. After all, he is an extremely outstanding person."
"Also, he set out from Suqian to participate in the battle in Xuzhou. When the empire caught them by surprise, they used a large number of poison gas bombs and defeated them. When the warriors collected the weapons of the independent division, the weapons either disappeared out of thin air or exploded.
"
"It's impossible to disappear. As for the explosion, there must be some mechanism or booby trap on their weapons." Matsushita shook his head.
"No, according to the situation at that time, the remaining people did not have time to install booby traps on the weapons of nearly 10,000 soldiers." Saburo Tanaka shook his head, "However, this information was not taken seriously by everyone."
"This is still impossible, there must be some mechanism." Matsushita Muichi shook his head and said, no matter whether he was really Matsushita Muichi or not, he felt that this matter was impossible.
