However, Zhao Baishi is also a company commander and is responsible for the life and death of more than a hundred brothers. Of course, he will not trust others so easily.
Zhao Baishi said: "It turns out to be Commander Xu. I'm Zhao Baishi. These two are my brothers Li Sijin and Hou Zhigang. Rumor has it that Commander Xu is a special operations elite who returned from studying abroad in Germany. He not only has outstanding skills, but also has better marksmanship."
No one can match him, but I wonder if Captain Xu can open our eyes?"
Li Sijin and Hou Zhigang started fighting again and again, but they didn't know what Zhao Baishi was thinking. They just wanted to see Xu Rui's marksmanship.
Xu Rui, on the other hand, knew the elegant meaning of the song after hearing it. The Sichuan Army captain was quite cautious and not trusting.
At that moment, Xu Rui smiled and said: "It's too narrow here, I'm afraid I can't use it. I wonder if there is an open place?"
"Of course." Zhao Baishi responded, "Not far from the Juyi Hall is the martial arts arena, just go there."
After finishing speaking, Zhao Baishi winked at Li Sijin without leaving any trace, and said: "Second brother, you go to the martial arts arena to prepare first, don't neglect your distinguished guests."
Zhao Baishi's implication is that if it is indeed Xu Rui, of course he will be entertained with good meat.
But if it's just a fake, I'm sorry, but I have no choice but to treat you to a meal.
Li Sijin understood Zhao Baishi's look and immediately turned around and left. Xu Rui did not stop him. On the one hand, Xu Rui believed in the Sichuan Army's character. On the other hand, Xu Rui was not worried about Zhao Baishi's mischief at all. The so-called art
An expert is brave, but Xu Rui really didn't pay attention to the more than 100 Sichuan troops on Jigong Ridge.
After Li Sijin left, Zhao Baishi chatted with Xu Rui for a while.
Guessing that Li Sijin was almost ready, Zhao Baishi said, "Commander Xu, how about we go to the martial arts arena right now?"
Xu Rui smiled and said, "It's up to the host as you wish, so please go ahead."
At that moment, Zhao Baishi and Hou Zhigang led Xu Rui and his group of seven people to the martial arts field not far away.
Li Sijin had already led people to set up targets on the martial arts field. Xu Rui glanced around again and found that there were many shadows in the dozen or so huts around. Apparently, the officers and soldiers of the Sichuan Army Company had already set up targets around the martial arts field.
Ambush, if he doesn't show some real skills to deal with it next, the Sichuan Army Company may have ambushes everywhere.
At that moment, Xu Rui said: "It's too boring to shoot fixed targets, so let's shoot moving targets."
"Playing with a moving target?" Li Sijin and Zhao Baishi looked at each other, confused.
Xu Rui stretched out his hand and said to Zhao Baishi: "Brother Zhao, can I lend you a gun?"
Zhao Baishi took out his mirror box and handed it to Xu Rui. Xu Rui took the gun and looked around. There happened to be a group of sparrows flying out of the forest not far away and landing on the martial arts field to look for food. Xu Rui gave it to Han Feng
With a wink, Han Feng took out a pebble from the pouch at his waist and hit it with it, landing accurately in the middle of the flock of birds.
When Zhao Baishi and the others saw this, their expressions suddenly changed slightly.
It is not uncommon to hit stones, but it is not easy to hit them so accurately.
The sparrows were immediately startled and scattered in all directions. At this time, Xu Rui fired. There was a burst of gunfire, and more than a dozen sparrows landed on the ground one after another. In less than a moment, the sparrows that had just flown to the martial arts field to look for food
More than a dozen sparrows had all fallen to the ground, and not one of them could escape.
Zhao Baishi and the others were immediately dumbfounded.
This kind of marksmanship is really scary.
Xu Rui smiled, blew the muzzle flash, and returned the mirror box to Zhao Baishi.
Zhao Baishi took the mirror box, and now he completely believed in Xu Rui's identity. If nothing else, he shot the flying bird within fifty meters. Who could fake it?
Zhao Baishi said: "Commander Xu, I have offended you a lot, please forgive me."
"It's nothing." Xu Rui said, "Brother Zhao should be more cautious."
"Captain Xu has a lot of people, I admire you." After Zhao Baishi finished speaking, he turned back and told Li Sijin, "Second brother, you go to the Juyi Hall immediately to serve wine. I want to entertain Captain Xu and his party."
"I appreciate Brother Zhao's kindness." Xu Rui said, "But I still have to go to Jiujiang City. I'd better drink this drink after I come back."
"Going to Jiujiang?" Zhao Baishi said, "Captain Xu, I'm not blabbering, Jiujiang is the headquarters of the Japs, with tens of thousands of Japs stationed there. Commander Xu is very skilled, and these brothers and sisters must also be very skilled.
But to be honest, just a few of you may not be enough to cause trouble in Jiujiang City."
Hou Zhigang said: "Brother, how about we go too?"
Zhao Baishi was a little hesitant. Xu Rui was a guest from far away. As landlords, they were supposed to accompany him on a trip to Jiujiang. However, Zhao Baishi knew better that Jiujiang City was not something you could break into casually. If you were not careful, all the brothers would have to answer for it.
Well, so this decision is not easy to make, let alone not to be made casually.
Fortunately, Xu Rui spoke again: "I appreciate Brother Hou's kindness. However, I went to Jiujiang this time to visit the base, not to go to Jiujiang City, and I only took one brother with me. I'm afraid the rest
I have to harass a few people on Jigong Ridge, please forgive me for this, Brother Zhao."
"So that's it, it's okay."
Zhao Baishi let out a sigh of relief after hearing this.
At that moment, Xu Rui didn't see anyone else, leaving Xiao Taohong and the others in Jigongling.
However, he and Leng Tiefeng put on the kimonos they brought from home, pretended to be Japanese ronin, descended from Jigongling, and headed straight for Jiujiang City.
At this time, the front had advanced to the west into Hunan and south to the south of Nanchang. Jiujiang became the rear area of the Japanese army. In addition, Okamura Neiji, an old Japanese soldier, had a strategic vision and was well versed in using China to control the war.
Huazhidao gave the Jiujiang local maintenance committee great administrative power.
So the public security in Jiujiang is pretty good.
Seeing Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng approaching, the girls and wives on the road did not hide. This was simply unimaginable in other Japanese-occupied areas, because the Japanese army had extremely poor military discipline and basically committed adultery wherever they were beaten.
They plundered, burned, killed and robbed wherever they went. When the older girls and younger wives saw the little devils, they acted as if they were seeing ghosts and hid as far as they could.
This wasn't over yet. Not far ahead, we encountered a checkpoint.
There were Japanese soldiers and puppet soldiers on duty at the checkpoint. What impressed Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng deeply was that these Japanese soldiers and puppet soldiers did not feel sorry for the civilians at all. Although the inspection of goods entering the city was very strict, they had a good attitude and inspected the goods.
After finishing, the Japanese would even re-stack the messed up goods, and finally apologize.
Xu Rui said to Leng Tiefeng in Japanese: "You see, this is what makes Okamura Neji unique."
Leng Tiefeng nodded with deep understanding and said: "It seems that this Okamura Neji is indeed very extraordinary."
"That's why we have to kill him!" Xu Rui whispered, "Otherwise, if this old devil becomes the commander of the Central China Condemnation Army, or even the commander-in-chief of the China Condemnation Army, we will be in big trouble."
When it was Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng's turn, Xu Rui took out the yen he had prepared and handed it over. He paused slightly and said, "Thank you for your hard work. It's just a small gift, but it's not respectful."
However, the leader of the Japanese army waved his hand and asked with a smile: "Are you from Tokyo?"
"Hai." Xu Rui paused slightly and said, "We are from Machida, Tokyo. This time we came to China from Japan specifically to see if we can contribute in some small way to the Imperial Holy War. Please take care of us."
After finishing speaking, Xu Rui handed over the fifty yen in his hand again.
The yen in this era is very valuable, and fifty yen is considered a lot.
This time, the sergeant did not refuse. Instead, he took the money without leaving a trace and introduced himself with a smile: "My name is Yoshino Takuya. I serve in the Jiujiang Military Police. You can go to the Military Police station to find me later."
, I know there is a business that can be done in Jiujiang, and I guarantee that you can make a lot of money."
"Nani?" Xu Rui asked excitedly, "What business."
Yoshino Takuji also came over and whispered: "Opium business."
"Suo Ga." A knowing smile immediately appeared on Xu Rui's face.
It was not time for Yoshino Takuji to change the guard yet, so he went to work again after chatting for a while.
Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng went straight into Jiujiang City and began to "idle along the streets" aimlessly.
As a result, before he could find Neji Okamura's Eleventh Army headquarters, he met an "acquaintance" again.
"Ah, Nishimura-san?! Nishimura-san?!" Xu Rui was stepping on the spot with Leng Tiefeng when someone suddenly shouted from behind.
When he looked back quickly, he saw a Japanese man also wearing a kimono, panting and catching up. As soon as Xu Rui turned around, the Japanese man saw his appearance clearly, and immediately shouted in surprise: "Nishimura-san"
, is it really you?"
At this time, Xu Rui also recognized the other person. It turned out that it was Takenoda Iso who had "voluntarily" donated a cement factory to Dameishan. Before parting, Xu Rui even specially sang a play to see Takenoda Iso's appearance of meeting an old friend in a foreign land.
His expression of surprise must have come from Xu Rui's performance. This little devil really regarded him as his savior.
"Zhu Ye Sang?!" Xu Rui also pretended to be surprised and said, "Are you still alive?"
"Hai, hai." Takenoda Iso nodded repeatedly and said with a smile on his face, "Nishimura-san, thanks to you, I was able to save a life. I really don't know how to repay you for your life-saving grace.
.”
Xu Rui waved his hand and said with a sigh: "The situation at that time was completely random, Zhuye Sang does not need to take it to heart."
Takenoda Iso did not continue to say thank you, but asked with concern: "Nishimura-san, how did you escape after I jumped into the river that night?"
Xu Rui sighed and said: "Forget it, you jumped into the river, but I was captured by the Chinese and brought back to Damei Mountain, where I worked as a coolie for several months. Not long ago, many prisoners of war suddenly came to the prisoner of war camp, because the people
If there were too many, the management would become chaotic. So I took the opportunity to escape with several expatriates who were arrested at the same time. When we first escaped, there were more than a dozen of us, but in the end, only the two of us were able to escape back to Nanjing alive.
personal."
After saying that, Xu Rui introduced Leng Tiefeng to Takenoda Iso: "Takeno-san, this is the second son of Nagata."
Leng Tiefeng nodded to Takenoda Iso and said sincerely: "Takeye-san, please take good care of me."
"Hai." Takenoda Iso paused and said, "Please take care of me, Nagata-san."
