In fact, Kagejiro’s special interview with Kage Sasaki was just for this purpose, to build public opinion for the Japanese army’s entry into the public concession and the French Concession!
When he first received this task yesterday, Jinjiro didn't know what to do at first.
But early this morning, it happened that the patrol battalion implemented military control of the public concession, which gave the Japanese army an excellent excuse to enter the public concession.
At that moment, Jinjiro said again: "Your Majesty Colonel, I would like to ask, has there been any such case in the world?"
"Of course there is, and this case happened in Shanghai." Yingzuo Zhenzhao said, "In the 1950s, thugs from the Little Knife Society captured Shanghai County and then invaded the Shanghai Concession with arms, ignoring international diplomatic conventions and blatantly trampling on international law.
, and eventually Britain and France sent troops to suppress it, thus safeguarding the sanctity and inviolability of international law."
After a pause, Kage Sasaki continued: "Right now, Britain and France are trapped in Europe and cannot extricate themselves, the United States is deeply troubled by isolationism, and the Soviet Union is colluding with China and even secretly condoning China's misbehavior. Therefore, upholding international law
The important task can only be shouldered by the Empire of Japan."
Kinjiro wrote down the words of Kage Sasaki one by one.
Kage Sasaki then said: "Jinjun, in tomorrow's Asahi Shimbun special topic, we must add this sentence. The Imperial Japanese Army entered the public concession for only one thing, and that is to suppress the thugs in the patrol camp. Once the patrol is finished,
Camp, the Imperial Japanese Army will immediately withdraw from the public concession and restore the old order."
"Hai." Kinjiro stood up and gave a half bow.
The interview had just ended when Ryota Kawamoto came in and reported: "Your Excellency Colonel, Liang Sang has arrived."
Kage Sasaki signaled Kinjiro to leave, and then told Kawamoto Ryota: "Let him come in."
"Hai." Ryota Kawamoto paused, turned around and left. After a while, Xu Rui walked in.
When entering the door, he happened to bump into Jinjiro who had packed up his things and left. Jinjiro also bowed slightly to Xu Rui, but Xu Rui ignored it and entered Yingzuo Zhenzhao's office proudly. This is also Liang Wuyi, a dandy.
As for his proper style, no one except Ying Zuo and Shun Nakamura would take him seriously.
Yingzuo Zhenzhao stretched out his hand to signal Xu Rui to sit down, and then said: "Liang Sang, I went to the Broadway Building just now, but I found that you were not at home. Your master said that you were busy with something big, and it was not
Is it related to the patrol camp? Can I know what big thing you are busy with?"
Xu Rui said in a deep voice: "I am designing a trap and am preparing to wipe out all the patrol camps!"
"Nani." Yingzuo Zhenzhao narrowed his eyes upon hearing this and said in a deep voice, "You want to wipe out the entire patrol camp?"
"Hai." Xu Rui paused slightly and then said, "To be honest with you, Colonel, the traps have been designed."
"Let's not talk about this for now." Yingzuo Zhenzhao waved his hand and asked, "Liang Sang, do you know that the patrol camp has just implemented military control on the public concession?"
"I know." Xu Rui said simply, "That's why we need to wipe out all the patrol camps. Otherwise, once the climate of the patrol camps is established and the concession is protected, Shanghai will never have peace!"
"That's not entirely true. If the imperial army is determined, the concession cannot protect the patrol camp." Yingzuo Zhenzhao waved his hand and said, "However, after you said this, I am really curious about what you planned.
What kind of trap do you dare to say confidently that you can wipe out the entire patrol camp?"
Xu Rui said: "Don't worry, Colonel, there will be no problem this time!"
Yingzuo Zhenzhao stood up from behind the big table, walked around the table and poured a glass of water for Xu Rui himself, and then said: "Liang Sang, tell me your plan of action."
Xu Rui said: "I would like to ask your Excellency Colonel a question first. As far as I know, there are also veterans of the National Army struggling to make ends meet in Hongkou District and Yangshupu, right?"
Hongkou District is the North District of the Concession, and Yangshupu is the East District of the Concession. After the Songhu Battle, the Japanese army changed their names to Hongkou District and Yangshupu District in order to downplay the concession color of these two areas.
"Indeed, there are, and there are quite a lot of them." Yingzuo Zhenzhao said, "However, these National Army veterans have left the army and are all good citizens now. You can't just cause trouble for them, otherwise it will be detrimental to the image of the Imperial Army.
"
Xu Rui chuckled and said, "But if they secretly collude with the patrol camp, they must be arrested!"
"Are you secretly colluding with the patrol camp?" Yingzuo Zhenzhao frowned slightly when he heard this and said, "Do you have any evidence?"
Xu Rui did not answer directly, but continued: "My idea is to set up a large prison in Hongkou, and the best location is Sihang Warehouse, and capture all the National Army veterans from Hongkou District and Yangshupu into Sihang Warehouse.
They will be tortured severely in the prison, hey, the patrol battalion will definitely try to rescue them when they find out."
Hearing this, Yingzuo Zhenzhao immediately reacted, it turned out to be like this!
It must be admitted that Xu Rui's trap is quite vicious, especially when he chose Sihang Warehouse as a prison for the detention of National Army veterans. This is almost a stab in the heart of the patrol camp, because the patrol camp is based on the lone army camp.
Expanded, and the Battle of Si Xing Warehouse is the greatest pride and greatest confidence of Gujun Camp!
Xu Rui converted the Sihang Warehouse into a prison, which was equivalent to a declaration of war to the patrol camp. As long as the officers and soldiers of the patrol camp were still a little bloody, they would definitely accept the move! Then, the Japanese army and the Broadway Building could use this to deploy in advance.
, set up a trap for the patrol battalion to infiltrate. In this way, it is really possible to defeat the patrol battalion in one fell swoop.
Kagezuo Zhenzhao crossed his arms across his chest and began to pace back and forth in the office.
Seeing that Yingzuo Zhenzhao was already a little moved, Xu Rui continued: "Your Excellency Colonel, even if this plan fails, the loss will only be a little reputation, and it will have no real impact on the overall situation of the Holy War. But if it succeeds,
But we can put an end to the patrol camps entrenched in the concession, and Shanghai will no longer have any hidden worries."
"Sodes." Yingzuo Zhenzhao stopped and finally made up his mind.
However, what really made Yingzuo Zhenzhao make up his mind was not what Xu Rui said, but the huge political dividends that annihilating the patrol camp and hunting Xu Rui would bring him!
Who is Xu Rui? He is the mortal enemy of the empire as declared by Emperor Hirohito himself!
With the leadership of Xu Rui, the patrol camp has obviously become a thorn in the side of the Central China Condemnation Army!
In order to eliminate the patrol battalion, which is a close friend, the base camp has urgently mobilized the 7th Division and the 20th Division to come. It seems that there will be a big battle in Shanghai! Moreover, the result may not be as the base camp hopes, and it may not be certain.
Able to eliminate the patrol camp and hunt down Xu Rui!
At this time, if he, Zuo Zhenzhao, takes action to wipe out the patrol camp and hunt down Xu Rui, what does it mean?
This not only means that the 7th and 20th Divisions will not come to Shanghai. It not only means that a large amount of military expenditure can be saved, but it also means that sometimes, as long as one person is used well, he can defeat a hundred thousand.
The army, and he, Yingzuo Zhenzhao, is the man who defeated an army of 100,000 people!
If this is the case, it is completely foreseeable that he, Yingzuo Zhenzhao, will rise through the ranks and become a major general, a general, or even a field marshal! When he thinks of this, Yingzuo Zhenzhao can no longer hold back. As a man,
, and how many can resist the temptation of greater power?
At that moment, Yingzuo Zhenzhao said to Xu Rui: "Liang Sang, your idea is very good, but it still has obvious shortcomings."
Knowing that Yingzuo Zhenzhao had entered the nest, Xu Rui was secretly happy, but his face remained calm and he said humbly: "Please give me your advice, Colonel."
Yingzuo Zhenzhao said: "I think that your Broadway Building family alone may not be enough to deal with the patrol battalion. In the past three months, your Broadway Building has greatly improved both its military strength and equipment, but today's
The patrol camp is also different from what it used to be, so when faced with the patrol camp, your Broadway Building is not sure of victory."
"Then..." Xu Rui said with a look of feigned anger on his face, "What do you mean, Colonel?"
"Liang Sang, don't be angry, I don't mean to underestimate your Broadway Building." Ying Zuo Zhenzhao gave Xu Rui a rare word of comfort, and then said, "I just think that if the Ninth Division can cooperate,
The certainty of success will be greater, but don’t worry, Liang Sang, if you win this battle, the first victory will definitely be yours!"
Xu Rui's face immediately showed a look of ecstasy, and he said flatteringly: "Thank you, Colonel, for your cultivation!"
"Liang Sang, work hard, you will have a bright future!" Yingzuo Zhenzhao patted Xu Rui on the shoulder and said, "When you go back, you will immediately draw up a detailed plan for this plan, and then submit it to me as soon as possible."
"Hai." Xu Rui said seriously, "Then I'll take my leave first."
Then, Xu Rui left Yingzuo Zhenzhao's office and drove away.
This time, in addition to Digua, the car was followed by Leng Tiefeng, who was sitting in the passenger seat.
As soon as Xu Rui got into the back seat, Leng Tiefeng said: "Looking at your brows and smiling face, it seems that Ying Zuo is in love?"
"Is there any need to say it?" Xu Rui said with a smile, "You don't even know who I am? How can an old devil like Yingzuo not be obedient if I personally take action?"
Leng Tiefeng shook his head and said, "But this is a risky move!"
After a pause, Leng Tiefeng continued: "If you cannot successfully inspire the bloody spirit of the National Army veterans stranded in Shanghai, your move will immediately become a mindless suicide! There are more than 6,000 officers and soldiers in the entire patrol camp.
Because of you, everyone will be in dire straits, and our planned battle to defend Shanghai will be aborted."
"Dangerous chess?" Xu Rui said in amusement, "Sun Tzu said as early as two thousand years ago that war is dangerous! How can there be any war that can be won in this world? The only thing we can do is to do our best.
Work hard and strive for the best results. As long as you achieve this, you will die without regrets even if you fail."
