What made Naosaburo Okabe even more worried was what came next.
In view of the pleasant cooperation between the two parties, as the two leaders of the Chinese negotiating team, General Mirai and Liu Lang sent Okabe Naosaburo and his party to the train station again.
It's not that Liu Tuanzuo was not enthusiastic enough. He didn't let Okabe Naosaburo and others have a hot meal and stay overnight in Jingxing. The key is that Okabe Naosaburo didn't dare! Not to mention that Liu Tuanzuo was like sandbags for a while, and the absolute "
A master of ninjutsu was beaten unconscious. Even if you think about it, you know how dangerous it is to stay in Chinese territory during this extraordinary period.
If the Chinese infantry accidentally "discharged" and shot and killed one of them, including him, Naosaburo Okabe, what else could General Juichi Terauchi do to them? Naosaburo Okabe dared to conclude that the commander, His Excellency, might not be able to do anything.
Still "full of grief", he continued to negotiate with the Chinese for a replacement, and the only thing he could get was to be declared a posthumous title of Army Lieutenant General at the funeral.
When he saw Liu Lang enthusiastically directing two infantry companies to carry equipment from the carriage as soon as he arrived at the train station, and even taking the list and checking it one by one for fear of being deceived, Naosaburo Okabe felt like this again.
Heartbroken for a while.
I'm sorry, this person is pretending to give the gift to others, but it is the real thing to come and get the gift in person!
When Liu Lang pointed to the last carriage and watched the soldiers take out boxes of ammunition from the carriage, he exclaimed with "touch" on his face: "General Okabe, you are too polite, you are really too polite. Why don't I just say
The guns were sent but they were empty of bullets! It turns out that the guy who came to the village did not want to shoot! I understand the truth. You must thank General Judai Terauchi for me. Please be sure to bring my thanks."
Naosaburo Okabe's eyes were absolutely black at that moment.
He was sure that what he and Juichi Terauchi discussed was just to send over the light weapons and equipment captured from the 39th Independent Brigade. In order to show the sincerity of the two noble princes in exchange, 16 additional 82 mortars were added in the end. After all,
, their Imperial Japanese Army has infantry artillery and mountain artillery, but mortars are actually useless. Even an infantry regiment in the Imperial Army is only equipped with 2 to 4 mortars.
However, they can send guns and artillery, but they have absolutely no intention of bringing ammunition with them. With enough ammunition, the Chinese will not be able to immediately arm an infantry brigade or even an infantry division to attack them immediately.
?Baga, who did this stupid thing?
Both Okabe Naosaburo and Terauchi Juichi ignored a characteristic of their own nation.
Almost all the individual tactics of the Japanese army are basically based on the same mold. That's because they all have the same thing. The Japanese infantry training manual even stipulates how many centimeters a roll needs to be turned, and the safety needs to be turned off when fighting with a bayonet.
extremely small movements.
Although it also reflects the subtleties of the Japanese nation, it also reflects the rigidity of its nation. Everything is done strictly in accordance with the regulations and will never exceed the scope of the regulations. Everyone is like a mechanical part, absolutely
Follow instructions.
Including their tactics in the Battle of Niangziguan, the reason why the Chinese soldiers were able to win was also due to the Japanese army's rather rigid infantry tactics. After the artillery bombardment completed the infantry attack, the infantry could not attack, and the artillery bombardment started to move sideways.
, there are almost no other modifications.
If it were on the plains, this tactic would be no problem, and it would repeatedly defeat the Chinese army without artillery cover. However, in the mountainous areas, this tactic would still be used, especially when there is an enemy who has been watching them for a long time.
With Liu Lang on the side, they will be in trouble, right?
And this rigidity is not only applied on the battlefield. It also includes the execution of Juichi Terauchi's military order.
The military order issued by the headquarters was to load all the light and heavy weapons and equipment captured from the 39th Independent Brigade, except mountain artillery, into trucks. The person in charge of the Japanese army's baggage didn't know what these weapons were for, so naturally he didn't have the guts to go and ask.
I asked General Shoudai in the temple whether the equipment contained ammunition.
So, the captain of the baggage regiment loaded the ammunition into the truck as equipment. Naturally, Naosaburo Okabe would not check them one by one, so he just delivered them in a confused manner.
"Sir, the inventory and list of light and heavy weapons are completely correct." An infantry company commander happily ran over to Liu Lang and stood at attention to report.
"Needless to say, General Okabe is such an upright person, how could he tamper with such trivial matters?" Liu Lang glanced at Naosaburo Okabe, who had a pale face on his side, with a smile on his face, waved his hand, and said: "The key is
It’s about how much ammunition we have. How can we fight with guns but no bullets? General Juichi Terauchi has thought very carefully about this for us.”
"After inventory, there were 500,000 rounds of 7.92mm rifle bullets, 100,000 rounds of 9.0 submachine gun bullets, 300,000 rounds of light and heavy machine gun bullets, 10,000 rounds of grenade grenades, and 1,500 rounds of mortar shells..." Infantry
The company commander reported the report with a smile.
A mouthful of old blood!
Naosaburo Okabe looked at Liu Lang's triumphant face and wanted to spit out the blood that was suffocating in his chest on that chubby face. This guy is definitely the nemesis of the empire. He can make people angry just by using his face.
dead.
"General Chen and Colonel Liu, the equipment used in exchange for my general's body has been properly accounted for. Please abide by the agreement between you and us and say goodbye." Naosaburo Okabe didn't even bother to say polite words and just threw it away.
The next thing he said, he waved his hand behind him, turned around and left.
That back view, what should I say, is a wronged little wife, if he can still twist his butt.
How ungrateful! Liu Lang curled his lips slightly.
Suddenly, as if he remembered something again, he shouted loudly to Naosaburo Okabe who was about to step into the carriage: "General Okabe, I remember that the 39th Independent Brigade still has 8 mountain cannons. Your army won't need them anyway. Otherwise,
I'll use Bunzaburo Kawagishi, Kushimura Kushiro, Yoshio Kametsuki, and Yoshito Takagi to pack up and trade with you?"
"Baga!" Naosaburo Okabe almost hit his head on the train carriage, turned back suddenly, and stared at Liu Lang with extremely sinister eyes.
Liu Lang stared back without fear, and raised his eyebrows provocatively at Naosaburo Okabe. What Chi Guoguo meant was, come and bite me if you have the ability!
Okabe Naosaburo's gloomy eyes gradually became calmer, and he actually nodded to Liu Lang, turned around and entered the carriage again, and never looked back until the carriage door was closed heavily.
The whistle blows and the train starts slowly
In the carriage.
A Japanese Major suggested to Naosaburo Okabe with an angry look on his face: "Your Majesty, Chief of Staff, this Chinese is too arrogant, why not just stay here and eliminate the great trouble for the empire..."
"Baga! Do you think you will be safe when the train starts?" Okabe Naosaburo, who had looked calm just now, suddenly turned extremely ferocious, and slapped his henchman until his mouth and nose started to bleed, "Idiot, look good.
Looking outside, do you think the Chinese are unprepared?"
Through the slowly moving window, although the future general and Liu Lang were still standing side by side on the platform, there were already three rows of Chinese soldiers standing in front of them.
Obviously, they had already prepared against the approaching Japanese attack.
They saw more than just this.
As the train moved forward, one flare after another suddenly shot into the sky, illuminating the route the train was traveling on.
The faces of the Japanese major general and two major staff officers also turned as white as snow outside the car window.
The mountains on both sides of the car window are full of Chinese positions. Rows of soldiers wearing helmets are lying in the trenches. Rows of rifles and light and heavy machine guns are shining blue under the light of the bright flares.
Light.
For a full twenty miles, the train traveled for more than 20 minutes before it finally completed the Chinese positions. The Chinese went so far as to extravagantly use flares to illuminate their journey. The terrifying strength and terrifying firepower made the entire Japanese army in the train
Everyone felt extremely threatened, and many people did not even dare to move, for fear that an inappropriate movement would cause misunderstanding among the Chinese people.
Even if you don't use any tricks on the railway, it's not a cannon. The light and heavy machine guns on both sides of the railway can smash the entire train into a sieve, and it's still the kind of debris.
There are at least fifteen infantry regiments, and Naosaburo Okabe's forehead is sweating. Their previous estimate was indeed correct. The Chinese only have at least three to four infantry divisions in Jingxing, or the Central Army.
The kind that is the main force.
The Chinese people are not shy about showing off their muscles to them, they are very strong.
On the station.
Watching the train slowly pull out of the train station, the future general's seemingly relaxed expression gradually turned a little solemn: "Liu Lang, do you know how many crimes Naosaburo Okabe has committed in just two months in North China?
.According to the report of our underground organization last month, he conducted a large-scale search for Chinese patriots in Peking City. Dozens of them were beaten to death under his orders, and hundreds more were imprisoned. In my opinion, it is possible for the temple's Shoichi to exchange prisoners of war.
We must get it, even if there is no such person, he will definitely exchange prisoners of war with us. Now, it is still too late to kill him."
Liu Lang's eyes became a little deep, and he shook his head slightly and said: "The Japanese are all the same. If you kill one Naosaburo Okabe, they will send another one. At least for now, it is more valuable for him to be alive than to let him die.
Value. I need to use his words to tell Juichi Terauchi not to be arrogant when exchanging prisoners of war, otherwise, the consequences will be serious."
"What do you mean?" The future general was slightly stunned. Looking at the Chinese position that had fallen into darkness, he suddenly understood Liu Lang's intention in notifying the various ministries in Jingxing County to dig positions along the Zhengtai Line in the afternoon.
That is, to demonstrate against the Japanese!
Tell the Japanese plainly that I have a large number of troops in Jingxing. If you have the ability, come and fight!
Even, not only all the original troops in Jingxing.
Liu Lang even transferred all the personnel of the independent regiment on the Jiuguan front line to Jingxing, including ten 105mm howitzers captured from the Japanese 26th Artillery Regiment, and was also asked to transport them to the Jingxing front line.
