Just as he was about to speak, Okamura Neji's voice sounded in the receiver.
"I will give you another day to complete the negotiations with the Jinsui Army and reach an armistice agreement for at least half a year. Even if the imperial army pays some price for this~"
"You have to know that as long as the Jinsui Army is still in southwestern Shanxi, no matter how much the imperial army pays, there will be a way to recapture these things in the future!"
Lieutenant General Fujino immediately replied: "Commander, please rest assured that I will definitely reach an agreement with the Jinsui Army tomorrow~"
After saying this, Lieutenant General Fujino stopped decisively.
Okamura Neiji is now very angry. He talks too much. If he tells the Jinsui Army Lion's demands loudly, it may be counterproductive and make the commander think that he is incompetent and cannot even solve such a small problem as negotiation.
.
The real situation was indeed like this. As soon as he finished speaking, Okamura Neji hung up the phone.
"Something else must have happened, otherwise the commander wouldn't be so anxious!" Fujino said to himself, listening to the beeping sound coming from the phone.
Then he ordered the chief of staff next to him: "Contact the southwest Shanxi front line immediately to see if anything happened to them!"
Soon, the chief of staff walked in with a solemn look on his face.
"Division Commander, something happened on the front line!"
"An hour ago, the Jinsui Army dispatched a heavy artillery regiment and fired three rounds of more than 30 heavy artillery shells at our station. The heavy artillery was too powerful, and the troops were resting in tents and were not alert. In just half a minute, we
The imperial army lost more than 300 people and two squadrons!"
"What?" Fujino stood up from his seat with a look of disbelief.
The chief of staff immediately added: "After post-war reconnaissance, it was confirmed that the Jinsui Army used 105 mm heavy mountain guns made by the empire, with a total of twelve!"
"Where did the Jinsui Army get so many heavy artillery on Bageya Road?" the shocked Lieutenant General Fujino asked with a puzzled look on his face.
But he soon came to his senses: "I remembered that my previous division commander lost a lot of heavy artillery in the battle with the New Regiment. Although many of them were blown up by planes, they were still captured by the New Regiment.
Quite a few..."
"A year ago, the New Regiment had a deal with the Jinsui Army, and the deal was done in our occupied area! We even sent troops to disrupt the deal, but failed and lost a lot of troops!"
"If I guessed correctly, this transaction must have something to do with those heavy artillery!"
"Where is our heavy artillery unit? Why not fight back? If I remember correctly, there is a heavy artillery regiment on the front line. There are more than 30 heavy artillery units. With a salvo, it only takes three rounds to kill the Jinsui Army's heavy artillery regiment!"
The chief of staff shook his head and replied: "The Jinsui Army did not give us a chance to counterattack!"
"Just after the three rounds of shelling ended, they stopped and then moved all the heavy artillery away!"
Lieutenant General Fujino immediately reacted: "Yes, with so many troops in the World War II zone, we managed to get more than a dozen heavy artillery pieces. They will definitely guard them like treasures and will not let us destroy them easily!"
"However, in this way, no matter where our frontline troops are stationed, they may be attacked by the heavy artillery regiment of the Jinsui Army!"
"As for the imperial troops who are in urgent need of the southwest Shanxi front line on other battlefields, it is impossible for them to stay on the southwestern Shanxi front line and stare at the Jinsui Army. Now I finally understand why the commander was so anxious on the phone just now. It turned out to be the Jinsui Army.
Demonstrate to the imperial army again and show your sword!"
"The Jinsui Army is too cunning. Chief Yan must have seen the current predicament of the imperial army, and then he opened his mouth. The negotiations during the day ended in failure, and after dark, they gave us such a demonstration
, use your sword to force the imperial army to accept their demands!"
"Then what should we do?" the chief of staff asked quietly.
Lieutenant General Fujino replied solemnly: "Your Majesty the Commander's orders must be implemented!"
"Give Noda-kun an order to agree to the Jinsui Army's request, and then stay with the Jinsui Army until the deal between the Imperial Army and them is completed..."
At the World War II Area Headquarters, while Commander Yan was still having breakfast, the intelligence director who contacted Lieutenant Colonel Noda hurried in.
"Commander, the kid was clamoring to see you early in the morning... You don't know, in the middle of the night last night, the radio station in the kid's room almost never stopped. When he found me in the morning, he still had a pair of dark circles under his eyes.
, one look at it and you can tell that there is no rest for the whole night!”
"Also, last night we captured more than 20 traitors and intelligence personnel who were working for the Japs. The highest-ranking one among them has reached the rank of deputy commander. They all used various means to find out about our heavy artillery regiment!"
"It seems that our bright sword last night worked!" Commander Yan put down the bowl and chopsticks and replied with a smile on his face.
"It's just that I didn't expect that a heavy artillery regiment would attract so much attention from the Japs and expose so many intelligence officers at once. This can be regarded as an unexpected surprise last night!"
"Now that the bright sword has worked, we should sharpen the little devil!"
"Yesterday's negotiation didn't take us seriously. Today during the day, I want the little devil to come over and beg us!"
"In this case, I haven't finished breakfast yet, so I'll wait for half an hour before talking to him. In half an hour, report the situation of the Japanese to me!"
After an hour of anxious waiting, Noda finally saw Chief Yan, who had a smile on his face from beginning to end, and said anxiously.
"Sir Yan, after consulting the superiors last night, the superiors have agreed to all the conditions you proposed yesterday! Look, when will we start signing the agreement!"
The devil is anxious!
Chief Yan thought to himself, and he felt happy.
In his opinion, the more anxious the Japanese are, the more benefits he can gain from this negotiation.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry. As if he had not heard what Lieutenant Noda said, he stared at the chief of staff next to him and asked: "Yesterday we discussed how much food we should exchange for those weapons and ammunition from them!"
"Ten million catties of grain!" the chief of staff replied.
"Why do I remember that it seems to be eight million kilograms of grain!" Commander Yan retorted thoughtfully.
The chief of staff immediately reacted: "Yes, it's eight million kilograms of grain. I remembered it wrong!"
A gloomy and murderous look suddenly flashed through Noda's eyes, but in the end he endured it and replied after a moment of hesitation: "Eight million kilograms of grain is just eight million kilograms of grain. The faster the transaction, the better."
"In addition, we hope that Chief Yan will issue an order now, we will cease the war, and the imperial army can immediately retreat ten kilometers as a sign of sincerity!"
"Okay, you and my chief of staff will discuss the details of the deal!"
At the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in Taihang Mountain, the intelligence staff rushed into the war room anxiously. When he saw the boss, he reported: "It has been found out!"
"Boss, we have figured out the content of the negotiation between the Japs and the Jinsui Army... There are two points in total, exchanging food for weapons and ammunition from the Japs, and a temporary truce!"
