Chapter 1382 This time the poison scheme is really insidious
It's already dark.
The Chinese people were still singing and chanting loudly, as if they were winning the war of resistance.
In fact, since the September 18th Incident, China has faced step by step the fierce and vicious neighbors. It has failed too many times, and its few victories are too far away from them, far less than what is happening right in front of them, one by one.
The little Japanese lay covered in blood on the position of his own defenders.
Although this is just an extremely small battle in the entire National War and even the Battle of Songhu, and it is not even the end of this small-scale battle, it is just one day of fighting scenes, but now Songhu, now
China is in urgent need of victory. Even if it is only a victory of one or two days, it will shatter the myth that the Japanese army is invincible.
The Chinese were happy here, but for the two Japanese lieutenants at the 36th Infantry Regiment Headquarters 800 meters away, who were facing each other with livid faces and tears in their eyes, this was just adding salt to the wound.
Hearing the slogans outside the window, deputy captain Kitajima Takeo could no longer suppress the anger in his chest. He strode to the window and suddenly raised the Nanbu pistol in his hand, about to shoot.
When the densely packed Chinese people in the concession more than 100 meters away were shooting, this time it was Wakitajiro's turn to jump up and pull him: "Kitashima-kun, don't be impulsive."
"Your Excellency, Captain, those Chinese people are so abominable, they are noisier than mosquitoes in Ishikawa!" Takeo Kitajima gritted his teeth and said: "Please allow me to resign as deputy captain, just to shoot at the Chinese on my own behalf.
This matter does not involve the Empire."
Japanese Lieutenant Colonel Zona had an awe-inspiring look on his face, as if he would rather go to a military court to safeguard the honor of the empire.
Wakitajiro's mouth twitched slightly, and he felt a little disgusted in his heart, but he still said: "Kitashima-kun, the best way to protect the honor of the empire is to deal with the Chinese defenders in front of you, rather than causing trouble for the empire!"
"Hi! It's Kitajima who didn't think well and made the captain worry so much." When Takeo Kitajima heard what his boss said, he naturally lost his temper.
If he is so shrewd that he doesn’t know the consequences of shooting into the concession? Of course he knows. But why would he do this?
How to put it? It can only be said that both of them are willing to find ways for each other. This impulse basically resolved the humiliation and embarrassment caused by the "provocation" of the two unlucky people in the face of the Chinese people.
The majestic Imperial Army of Japan, faced with such a slap in the face from the Chinese people whom it despises, if it is inappropriate to express a little of its anger to maintain the dignity of the empire, then don’t get slapped in the mouth by the division commander.
son?
Life is really like a play, and play is like life! This is clearly reflected in these two Japanese military officers.
"Kitajima-kun, the clamor of mosquitoes can certainly make people upset, but as a commander of the Imperial Army, you should not let external things influence your emotions!" Jiro Wakita persuaded his "impulsive" person.
His subordinates waved their hands and said with a stern expression, "The tenacity of the Chinese army in front is somewhat beyond my expectation. I think that if we continue to attack forcefully, we may not have good results."
"Nonsense, your face was swollen during the day, and you still attacked a bird feather!" Takeo Kitajima curled his lips slightly, but his face perked up and said, "Your Excellency, the commander of the regiment, means to request artillery support.
?”
"No." Wakitajiro shook his head and said, "Kitashima-kun knows how to lure snakes out of their holes. He must have read the "Art of War" written by the ancient Chinese people, right?"
"Sun Tzu's Art of War?" Takeo Kitajima nodded and said, "I've seen some of it, but it's too obscure to understand. I'd like to ask the commander of the company for guidance."
Glancing at his very knowledgeable subordinate, Colonel Wakiitajiro showed a trace of inexplicable pride on his face. This is the effect of status. This subordinate is obviously very proficient, but in front of him, he can only bow his head and obey his instructions.
.
At that moment, he said with a teacher-like expression on his face: "Mr. Kitajima, this holy war between the Empire and China is related to the destiny of our Yamato nation for generations to come. As pioneers, if you and I want to make achievements in this holy war,
It is best to take the time to study the culture of the Chinese people. In the past hundred years, the Chinese people have been extremely ignorant, resulting in a weak national power. However, their accumulation of thousands of years of civilization can be said to be profound and profound and should not be underestimated. To be honest, if you want to occupy the whole world
It is easy to conquer China, but it is absolutely impossible to rule the entire Chinese nation for a long time without understanding their culture. The reason why the Mongols, who unified the entire territory of China hundreds of years ago and even directed their troops to the Rhine River, only lasted for a hundred years was the last
It is an example of failure. It is extremely stupid to just labor its people without knowing how to slowly erode them spiritually."
"Hi! Your Excellency, the captain, you are right. Kitajima has learned a lesson." Resisting the disgust in his heart, Kitajima Takeo looked like a good boy, listening to what he had looked like before, but now he was quite sophisticated.
Tips from the unpredictable Japanese commander.
The officialdom is clearly reflected in these two people. The hypocrisy makes people want to vomit, but the people who are involved in it are happy with it. Because the people at the bottom do not have the qualifications to be hypocritical.
, we can only live humbly and truly. For example, those Japanese lieutenants and Japanese soldiers who fell on the battlefield were very real.
I just like to see Lieutenant Colonel Kitajima looking like a mean person. He gave him a gentle slap very skillfully and waited for his subordinates to praise him. Wakisaka Jiro then said: "Sun Tzu was the greatest military strategist in ancient China. He mentioned it in his military books.
, Victory in a hundred battles is not a good thing; subduing the enemy's army without fighting is a good thing! It means that a hundred battles and a victorious is not the highest state of war between two armies. The goal can be achieved without using force. Then
This is the highest state of battle between two armies!"
"Hmm! This sentence seems to make sense." Takeo Kitajima said with sincere "admiration", "Your Excellency, the captain, is indeed a daughter of a famous family, and her knowledge is indeed extremely profound, but I don't know what methods your Excellency, the captain, plans to adopt.
To achieve the effect of 'conquering the enemy without fighting'?"
To be honest, before saying this, Kitajima Takeo did not expect that the commander of the regiment who had previously lost 700 Imperial Army casualties through hard work would come up with any constructive suggestions. Throughout the day, this commander could not
The captain's stupidity was clearly demonstrated.
Jiro Wakisaka's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he said sadly: "In order to avoid the situation from escalating, and to avoid drawing Europe and the United States and other countries into disputes, we cannot bombard the target with heavy artillery, nor can we use heavy aerial bombs. However, we can pass
Diplomatic channels will put pressure on the Western Concession authorities, and the Western Concession authorities will put pressure on the China government! We will warn them that in order to avoid heavy sacrifices of our imperial army, at the moment of desperation, heavy artillery and even naval gunfire will be used against China
Bombardment of the army's positions. Hehe, water from afar can't quench the thirst of nearby people. You said, as for the Westerners in the Western Concession, do they dare to risk their representatives to condemn the empire in the League of Nations while they themselves may be blown to ashes by heavy artillery?
What about the risks?”
"Your Excellency, Captain, you are really tall." Takeo Kitajima couldn't help but his eyes lit up, admiration welling up on his face.
This time, it's true. Because this trick is really effective.
This may be the legendary saying "A fool will surely succeed after all his worries"! This move is really like a snake striking seven inches, and it hits the Chinese people's weak spot exactly.
"The Chinese government has always been weak, and it still dares not formally declare war on our empire. This is the best evidence. I think that as long as the Western Concession authorities exert a certain amount of pressure on the Chinese government, the Chinese government will definitely give an order to let the front group
The China Army retreats!" Takeo Kitajima nodded with deep understanding and added to his superior. "Furthermore, given the current situation of the enemy and our armies, the China Army can only retreat to the Western Concession. But, Your Excellency, Captain, this army kills and kills
I am just like the Imperial Japanese Army, how can we let them go so easily? It is difficult to explain to the Imperial Japanese Army who are still alive!"
"Kitao-kun is right, our army will definitely annihilate this cunning Chinese army." Wakiitajiro nodded, a sinister smile flashed across his face, and said: "There is an idiom in China, which is called a turtle in an urn, as long as it is a turtle in an urn,
If the Chinese army in front retreats into the Western Concession, they will really become a turtle in a urn."
"Please also ask your Excellency, the captain of the unit, to clear up any doubts."
"We will continue to put pressure on the Western concessions and ask them to disarm the Chinese troops who have retreated into the concessions and detain them without allowing them to leave the concessions. If violated, we will have the power to enter the concessions with armed forces to hunt down the Chinese troops.
"Wakiitajiro said firmly.
"However, the Western Concession will definitely not allow us to do this." Takeo Kitajima was really confused this time. Westerners have powerful armies, and they will not give in easily in the face of such a threat.
"Kitashima-kun, you are right. Westerners have a high level of self-esteem and will not give in easily." Jiro Wakita nodded. "But, what do you think Chinese people are in the eyes of Westerners?"
"I understand." Kitajima Takao finally became completely excited. "Only the strong can make people surrender and fear. Compared with the weak China and our empire, Westerners will naturally choose the opinions of the strong. The weak China will only
Can fall victim to compromise between strong men.”
"Yo Xi! I immediately sent a message to the division headquarters and asked His Excellency Iwane Matsui of the dispatched army for approval." Jiro Wakiba finally showed a proud smile on his face. "The Chinese army in front may not understand until after this battle.
A little bit of courage is not enough to accomplish great things."
.......
After two consecutive days of failed attacks, the two commanders of the Japanese army came up with a vicious plan again.
Perhaps only Liu Lang, who was still in Nanjing, knew that their poisonous plan was really successful in the past time and space.
Under the pressure of the Western Concession, the bald man who wanted to seek support from the Western world finally ordered this heroic unit to withdraw into the Western Concession. However, they withdrew, but the Japanese army's vicious plan came true again, and the concession authorities chose
In order to defeat the currently stronger Japanese army, they treacherously disarmed this heroic force and detained it in a military camp in the concession.
For three full years, until the Pacific War broke out, the Japanese army brazenly sent troops to capture the concession, captured this heroic unit that repeatedly inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese army on the battlefield, and most of them were sent to small islands in the Pacific for labor service.
Of the nearly 400 people, only a hundred or so survived in the end.
The iron-blooded soldiers did not die on the battlefield, but died due to the machinations of the Japanese and the perfidy of the Western world. This is simply the tragedy of the Chinese nation in this era.
