Yingzuo Zhenzhao had just laid down on his desk and squinted for a while when he was awakened by the rapid ringing of the phone.
"Mashi Masi." Kagezuo Zhenzhao sat up reflexively and grabbed the phone on the table. After a moment, Kagezu Zhenzhao's expression immediately changed.
The outpost of Xinjunqiao was attacked, and four imperial soldiers were shattered?
The Broadway Building was raided on a large scale by unknown armed men?!
Needless to say, this must have been done by the patrol battalion! Apart from them, there could be no one else!
At that moment, Kage Sasaki rang the bell and called the adjutant Ryota Kawamoto in.
Ryota Kawamoto opened the door and came in. He paused and said, "His Majesty Colonel?"
Kage Sasaki shook the phone handle and said to Kawamoto Ryota: "Order, the Fourth Military Police Squadron assembles immediately! Notify Liang Sang and return to the Broadway Building immediately!"
"Hai!" Ryota Kawamoto paused heavily, turned around and left. At this time, the phone call on Kage Sasaki's side was also connected, and he said into the phone, "Please pick up the Ninth Division for me!"
After a while, the headquarters of the Ninth Division was connected.
"Mashi Masi, this is the headquarters of the Ninth Division." A pleasant female voice immediately came from the other end of the phone.
Kage Sasaki raised his wrist and looked at the time, and said: "I am the deputy director of the Nakamura Agency, Kage Sasaki. Please report to General Yoshizumi immediately and dispatch an infantry brigade to Broadway Road as soon as possible!"
"Hai." The female voice on the other end of the phone agreed and hung up.
Yingzuo Zhenzhao also put down the phone, then put on his military hat, grabbed his saber and strode out of the office.
In the yard, a squadron of Japanese military police had completed their assembly. Yingzuo Zhenzhao went downstairs, got directly into an armored vehicle parked in the yard, and then led a squadron of Japanese military police towards Broadway Road.
In the carriage, Ryota Kawamoto reported to Masaaki Kage: "His Majesty Colonel, Liang Sang cannot be contacted."
Yingzuo Zhenzhao frowned, then waved his hand and said: "Forget it, he must have started taking action. Let us settle the matter at Broadway Building for him for the time being."
Kawamoto Ryota said: "Liang Sang was too careless and did not leave enough troops to guard the nest."
"You can't blame Liang Sang for this. If it weren't for my judgment, Broadway Building wouldn't have gone out to loot the French Concession. It's my fault." Ying Zuo Zhenzhao waved his hand and said, "I hope the left-behind staff of Broadway Building
If you can hold on a little longer, no matter what, we must hold on until our gendarmerie arrives."
"Hai." Kawamoto Ryota said solemnly and said nothing more.
(Dividing line)
Meanwhile, at the Broadway Building.
The patrol battalion has completely taken control of the main building, and the remaining personnel in the Broadway Building retreated to the auxiliary building to resist.
Finding that the resistance in the annex building was "tenacious", Xie Yuan decisively gave up the attack on the annex building and began to loot the main building of Broadway Building for supplies.
"Barracks, supplies warehouse found on the second floor!"
"Really? What's in the warehouse?"
"Weapons and ammunition, clothing, shoes and hats, and food."
"Take them all away, not even a grain of rice is allowed to be left behind."
"Reporting to the camp, a vault was found on the third floor."
"Take them all away, no one is allowed to stay!"
"Reporting to the camp, a dungeon was found on the third underground floor."
"Dungeon? Who are the people imprisoned in?"
"Meat tickets, meat tickets kidnapped from Broadway Building."
"Take them away, take them all away, leave no one behind!"
In less than fifteen minutes, the materials in the warehouse on the second floor of the Broadway Building were emptied and loaded into trucks. The meat tickets on the third underground floor were also escorted to the ground. These naive meat tickets thought that the savior had arrived, and they were all happy.
If it didn't work, Huang Huangrong even came forward with tears in his eyes and asked the guarding officers and soldiers if they were sent by Lin Guisheng to rescue him.
As a result, the guard officer who was asked about it couldn't help but smash the butt of Huang Huangrong's gun to shut him up.
Huang Huangrong was immediately stunned, and the other meat stamps immediately fell silent, not daring to say any more nonsense. Then, hundreds of meat stamps started walking towards the Junk Bridge under the escort of the patrol battalion.
By the time Yingzuo Zhenzhao arrived with the military police squadron, the patrol battalion had already evacuated the Broadway Building with the supplies, money and meat tickets they grabbed. The patrol battalion's operation was planned very carefully, and the whole process only took a short time.
Half an hour later, when the Japanese military police arrived, only the light shadow of the truck could be seen.
More than half an hour later, reinforcements from the Ninth Division also arrived.
Kage Sasaki left a squadron to help defend the Broadway Building, and then led the military police squadron and three other infantry squadrons to attack the New Junk Bridge. However, when he arrived at the New Junk Bridge, he saw that the patrol battalion on the other side of the bridge was already ready.
Facing the dark machine guns of the patrol camp, the Japanese did not dare to move.
The shadow left by the rescue operation a week ago has not dissipated. Yingzuo Zhenzhao is very worried that if he bravely crosses the new garbage bridge at this time, will he make the same mistake as last time?
After hesitating, Yingzuo Zhenzhao completely gave up the idea of leading his troops into the western part of the concession.
After all, it is still because Japan is not ready.
If Japan is ready for an all-out war with the West, Kage Sasaki will not hesitate at all and will immediately transfer a regiment or even a brigade from the Kanazawa Division. By then, there is no way that the patrol battalion will be them
opponent, but now, Yingzuo Zhenzhao does not dare to act rashly, lest he disrupt the plan of the base camp.
After waiting for half an hour at the north end of the New Junk Bridge, Ryota Kawamoto suddenly came over and reported: "Your Excellency Colonel, Liang Sang has returned to Broadway Building with the Third Brigade of Special Agents, but..."
Yingzuo Zhenzhao's face darkened when he heard this and asked: "What's the matter?"
Ryota Kawamoto lowered his head and replied: "Not only did the Third Special Agent Brigade not gain anything, it also suffered a loss!"
"Nani?" Ying Zuozhenzhao was shocked when he heard this. Liang Wuyi actually suffered a loss sometimes? It must not be because of his misjudgment, right? Then he said to Kawamoto Ryota, "Let's go to Broadway Building."
After a while, Kage Sasaki took Ryota Kawamoto to the Broadway Building.
As soon as he entered the door, Yingzuo Zhenzhao saw the agents of the Broadway Building moving corpses from the truck. Yingzuo Zhenzhao turned around and glanced at the yard again, and found that dozens of corpses had been laid out.
At this time, Xu Rui had also seen Yingzuo Zhenzhao and immediately came up with sweet potatoes.
"Your Excellency, Colonel, we have fallen into a trap!" Xu Rui came up and expressed his bitterness to Yingzuo Zhenzhao, "The robberies on Suzhou Road and Xiamen Road by the patrol battalion were just a smokescreen set off by them."
"Nani?" Yingzuo Zhenzhao said, "Just a smokescreen?"
"Hai, that's just a smoke screen put out by the patrol camp." Xu Rui said, "The purpose is to lure us, to lure us to follow them out to rob, and then, when we all go out to loot the French Concession, the patrol camp
However, the troops were divided into two groups, one group went straight to our lair, and the other group ambushed us halfway."
After a pause, Xu Rui said again: "The real target of the patrol battalion is us!"
"Baga Yalu, these damn cunning Chinese." Yingzuo Zhenzhao's face immediately felt burning, because it was none other than him who made the judgment that the patrol camp fished in troubled waters and looted the concession.
, Also, it was he, Yingzuo Zhenzhao, who gave instructions to Broadway Building to loot the French Concession.
In other words, the current losses of the Broadway Building are all caused by his influence.
This result made Yingzuo Zhenzhao feel very frustrated because he was completely fooled.
After a lot of effort, Yingzuo Zhenzhao finally controlled his emotions and asked in a deep voice: "Liang Sang, the main responsibility for the failure of Broadway Tower this time lies with me, and I will also be responsible for it!"
Xu Rui sneered in his heart, I went through so much trouble and finally set up this trap just to put the responsibility of this fiasco on you? Otherwise, I will let the patrol battalion confiscate all the proceeds from the looting operations in the past few days.
All the benefits and all the meat tickets were taken away. Why should you complain to death for such a huge loss?
But on the surface, Xu Rui didn't show it and said: "Your Majesty Colonel, that's not what I meant..."
"Okay, Liang Sang, you don't need to say any more." Yingzuo Zhenzhao waved his hand and said, "Have you ever counted the losses of your Broadway Building this time?"
Xu Rui nodded and replied: "The losses were huge. All the money and goods obtained from the previous looting operations, as well as the hundreds of meat coupons kidnapped back, were all snatched away by the patrol battalion. Also, Mr. Colonel
The patrol battalion also took away a small part of the guns and ammunition you gave us. In addition..."
After a slight pause, Xu Rui continued: "The Third Brigade of Special Agents was ambushed on Zhejiang South Road. Although we repelled the patrol battalion's attack in the end, we also paid a heavy price. More than 300 brothers in the entire Third Brigade were killed or injured.
Nearly half, of which nearly fifty were killed."
After finishing speaking, Xu Rui looked back at the corpses spread out on the playground.
Yingzuo Zhenzhao's eyes moved to the playground, his expression becoming more and more gloomy.
After a while, Yingzuo Zhenzhao said again: "Liang Sang, you should not go out for the next few days."
When he said this, Yingzuo Zhenzhao felt very depressed, because if the Broadway Building did not go out to loot the building in the next few days, it would mean that his previous wishful thinking had failed, and the Japanese army in Shanghai would suddenly
The benefits of splitting the money were lost, and the Kwantung Army's opium payment could not be settled.
The embarrassment is still a small matter, but if it affects the Kwantung Army's combat readiness, the impact will be huge.
However, to Yingzuo Zhenzhao's surprise, Xu Rui waved his hand fiercely and said: "Your Excellency, Colonel, it has never been my style to not avenge a grudge, Liang Wuyi. Others are gentlemen and it is not too late to take revenge after ten years, but I
, but I must avenge myself when I have a grudge, and I must do so immediately. I must find this patrol camp back!"
