Sakai: "Major, we checked, Li Song does have another name, Li Xiance!"
Hattori Hikoo: "So, he is using a pseudonym?"
"It's not a pseudonym. His name is Li Song, and his courtesy name is Xiance."
"Who is this person?"
"He was originally from Langfang, Hebei Province, and studied at Yanjing Railway College. Later, the school moved to Sichuan. Through the recommendation of his classmates, he became a proofreading editor at Yanjin Daily."
"How old is he?"
"Thirty-six years old."
"Do you have a family?"
"Yes, his wife is a nurse and has a daughter. However, his wife and daughter did not come to Yanjin."
Hattori Hikoo thought for a long time and said: "A person comes to Yanjin to work without his family, and he comes from Sichuan... This is very similar to the behavior of military unification agents!"
Sakai took a step forward and said: "Major, I will lead people to arrest him and enter the interrogation room. I am not afraid that he will not tell the truth!"
Hattori Hikoo shook his head and said: "Even if he is a member of the military commander, what if he refuses to admit it?"
"Major, I am confident in prying his mouth open!"
"Sakai-san, don't be too superstitious about torture tools. Torture is not very useful against those die-hard resisters! Zeng Che, Xu Haichuan, Yue Shusheng, Sun Shiming, are there many such examples?"
"...Then what do you think we should do?"
"Foxes always show their tails. All we need to do is wait!"
"yes!"
"Ring, ring, ring!" The phone on the table rang.
Hattori Hikoo picked up the phone: "Hey, I... understand!"
Putting down the phone, Hattori Hikoo said: "Commander Shimomura has been transferred back to China, and we have a new commander!"
"Which general is the new commander?"
"Lieutenant General Uchida Ginnosuke, commander of the 118th Division!"
Sakai said in confusion: "General Uchida is a victorious general of the empire. Normally he should be sent to the front line. How come he was transferred to serve as the commander of the garrison army?"
Hattori Hikoo was silent for a moment and said slowly: "It means that the base camp is already preparing for the worst. Yanjin is now the rear area. Maybe in the near future, this will be my last line of defense. Only by guarding Yanjin can we ensure the safety of Manchuria!"
"
Sakai suddenly understood and said: "No wonder the military department asked General Uchida to come to Yanjin..."
Hattori Hikoo picked up his hat and said: "Prepare the car and follow me to the headquarters to meet General Uchida!"
"yes!"
Half an hour later, the Haishen Temple Yanjin garrison headquarters arrived.
Hattori Hikoo was waiting outside the door. A guard came out and said: "Major Hattori, the general invites you in."
Hattori Hikoo quickly stood up, straightened his military appearance, and walked into the commander's office.
Uchida Ginnosuke is short in stature, wears a pair of round glasses, and looks gentle. Among the Japanese generals, he is a war madman who advocates results as truth!
The 118th Division was the first unit to use mustard gas bombs. This corrosive poison mainly invades the human body through the skin and respiratory tract, and is extremely harmful to hematopoietic organs and cells. With the current medical level, infected people cannot get it at all.
Complete cure!
Hattori Hikoo put his feet together, bowed and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, Hattori Hikoo of the Military Police Corps has come to see you!"
Uchida put down the official document in his hand and said with a smile: "Hattori-kun, there is no need to be formal, please sit down."
Sitting on the chair opposite Uchida's desk, Hattori Hikoo's body was as straight as a bowstring.
"Hattori-kun, I know that you, a top student of the Army Academy, have made many military exploits in Manchuria. When you served as captain of the military police, the public security situation in Yanjin was good, very good!"
"I haven't done enough in my humble position. I hope your Excellency, Commander, can give me some advice!"
"I think you all know the severe situation facing the empire, so I won't say more. I just want to emphasize that Yanjin is the only way to Manchuria. There may be a fierce battle here in the future. Hattori-kun, you
Are you ready?"
Hattori Hikoo stood up and said: "I am always ready to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor. If the city is standing, I will be there. If the city is destroyed, I will die!"
Uchida nodded with satisfaction and said, "Good! Sit down!"
After a pause, Uchida continued: "Hattori-kun, you are commendable for your loyalty and courage. I appreciate it very much! However, I didn't mean to ask you if you are ready!"
"You are humble and stupid, please make it clear!"
"Yanjin has perfect sea and land transportation. It has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times. If you want to build Yanjin into a fortress, you must eliminate all resistance forces!"
"I am preparing to arrange a city-wide manhunt..."
"No, no, no, in this sensitive period, try not to panic people. Besides, catching a few spies won't really solve the problem!"
"You mean...the armed rebels outside the city?"
Uchida said approvingly: "I have convinced you that you are good at drawing inferences from one instance to another. You really did not disappoint me!"
He picked up the briefcase and said: "I heard that there are two groups of rebels outside Yanjin City. One is the so-called Pingjin guerrillas from Chongqing, and the other is a bandit force recruited by the Communist Party. Is that true?"
"yes."
"How many people do they have? How many weapons?"
"According to intelligence, there are about fifty people in the Ping-Tianjin guerrillas. Their weapons are relatively sophisticated. Their main weapons are Zhongzheng rifles and a small number of light machine guns. Although the Communist Party has more people, their combat effectiveness is extremely poor. They are basically a mob!"
Uchida picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, and said: "A rabble? What I can't understand is why our regular army has not been able to eradicate a group of rabble for so many years!"
Hattori Hikoo carefully considered his words and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, the guerrillas have strong mobility and are familiar with the geographical environment. It is difficult to find them..."
Uchida shook his head slightly and said: "Hattori-kun, I think the reason why you are unable to eliminate these rebels is that there is a problem with your thinking!"
He stood up and came to the map and said: "The Pingjin guerrillas are currently operating in the Xinjiadian area. Tell me, why did they choose to be there?"
Hattori Hikoo thought for a while and said: "Xinjiadian is densely populated and is the largest village outside Yanjin City. The supply problem can be easily solved. Moreover, even if we got the news, they had already escaped before the large troops arrived.
Got it!"
Uchida: "Yes, the goals of the imperial army are too obvious, and it is really difficult to get close to them. Have you ever thought about whether we would achieve unexpected results if we organized a team similar to the guerrillas and put on the clothes of the Chinese people?
?”
Hattori Hikoo: "Your Excellency, Commander, I have also thought of this method. However, if you change into civilian clothes, you can only carry some short guns at most. Even if you find the enemy, you will be at a disadvantage in terms of weapons..."
Uchida smiled and shook his head, and said: "Hattori-kun, I brought some mustard gas bombs, which should be able to make up for the disadvantages of weapons!"
Hattori Hikoo thought for a moment and said: "However, Xinjiadian is densely populated, and using poison gas bombs in such a place will inevitably affect many people."
Uchida said calmly: "As long as the absolute safety of Yanjin can be guaranteed, even if all these people die, it doesn't matter!"
Hattori Hikoo put his feet together and said: "I understand the humble position!"
Uchida sat back on his chair and said: "You are specifically responsible for this matter. I have arranged the personnel for you. There are fifty people in total, all of whom are veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles. I believe that even without the help of gas bombs,
, they will also kill one against ten and completely eliminate those damn rebels!"
