Chapter 11 What I Saw and Heard in Yizhou

July 28th. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The final battle around Beiping City began, the heroic and fearless Chinese soldiers and civilians did not know what fate awaited them, the war that lasted more than half a month, the main force of the Japanese Army has surrounded Beiping City, like a pair of steel-like palms, little by little stuck the gateway of the North China Plain, the struggle became more and more intense, but under the huge gap in weapons and military training, bravery and fearlessness only added a little bit of pathos.

Sadly, it is the civilians, Zhang Linhan has rushed to the Yan'an headquarters three days ago to report on his work, he has a good reason, he can look back at all the party members of the underground party of the Beiping branch to sign the life and death of living and dying with the city, and then say take care, and leave in style.

He is a little clever and knows what it will mean to stay in Peking. In his cognition, he should not die in Beiping, and there are many, many tasks that he needs to complete. This suitable reason, not only did he listen to it perfectly, but even the headquarters did not object.

On the other side, the long-prepared Yizhou task force was also officially renamed the Third Task Force Mobile Fleet, Vice Admiral Hasegawa sat in the flagship Izumo, and Kaga, Ryuchamp, and Fengxiang The three aircraft carrier mothers also officially appeared on the fleet list. At the same time, the last battleship Haruna was transferred as a wingman, and the two newly reconstructed air cruisers of the Seventh Sentai Mogami and Mikuma, the Takao and Maya heavy cruisers of the Fourth Sentai Brigade, in addition to Myoko and Nachi, a total of three aircraft carriers, two battleships, and six first-class cruisers. The strength of the main forces is enough to crush the Chinese naval fleet.

At the same time, 22 destroyers led by Yubari, Tatsuda, Kinu, and Yura formed four mine teams as auxiliary support forces. Even the American Federation on the other side of the ocean did not dare to underestimate this huge fleet.

In the evening of the same day, the military port. Since the war readiness order has been issued, Kaga has finally been released from "house arrest" and is allowed to move around the Kaohsiung military port at will.

Kaga gave a speech without any substance in front of the bewildered soldiers of the naval garrison, and was warmly applauded by thousands of young soldiers. After finishing his image work as a regular aircraft carrier, he casually walked along the road to the exit of the military port, with evergreens planted on both sides that Kaga did not recognize, and a few seagulls could be seen flying in the sky from time to time.

"Ahh Isn't this Admiral Temasa Sanjo of the Seventh Sentai Team? When is this all this, still hanging out outside, and having more relations with Lieutenant General Hasegawa, maybe he will give you the task of the fourth team to your seventh team. Think of the Army's Red Deer War for a dozen and military merit medals sent to the Army Headquarters in piles. You, a young man, really don't want to make progress, and you don't want to take advantage of your youth to earn more military merits and take your father's position as soon as possible. ”

"I don't need you to worry about my business." Sanjo Terui was taking Yubari out to relax, he never expected that he would come to Yizhou not for military exercises, but to prepare for an attack on neighboring China. "Yubari, let's go."

"Sure enough, what kind of home, what kind of children. The best three men of the Sanjo family are just a little kid. Still fantasizing about honorably serving your country? Come on, this isn't your first time on the battlefield, is it? No wonder Lieutenant General Hasegawa gives you the task of guard, children are not suitable for seeing bloody scenes, just stay behind the adults and mix up a medal. ”

"Kaga, don't go too far!" Sanjo Teru turned around and almost threw his fist, but fortunately, Yubari quickly grabbed his impulsive boyfriend. Sanjo Terumasa is now only at the rank of Osa, and Kaga is also at the rank of Osa. But once Sanjo Teruma makes a move because of this trivial matter, he may anger the other shipwives and Kaga's boss, Vice Admiral Nagumo Tadaichi.

"Yubari, don't stop me. Today I am going to teach this stinky woman a good lesson and make her understand the price of humiliating the Sanjo family a few times! ”

"Calm down, Teimasa. If the matter is big, it will be difficult to deal with. ”

Kaga ignored Sanjo Terumasa and Yubari, smiled contemptuously, and continued to walk outside the military port.

"Miss Kaga, we can't leave the military port without the permission of Lieutenant General Hasegawa."

Yubari's reminder, Kaga also ignored it, in her heart, only Nagumo Tadaichi was qualified to give her orders.

Relying on his cold eyes and the official air mother's military ID, Kaga forcibly walked out of the military port. As for those guards hurriedly calling their superiors, she didn't stop them at all, and she was sure that Lieutenant General Hasegawa wouldn't take care of her.

The scenery outside the military port is completely different from the inside, even though Kaohsiung is a big city in Yizhou, it is much worse than the bustling city outside Kure Port. Kaga was visiting Yizhou for the first time, and he had the impression that Yizhou was just a new colony, and it was natural that it had not been well built.

Not far away, the small shops on both sides of the street began to close one after another, and only the stores dedicated to serving the Kaohsiung Military Port could continue to open in the evening.

"Miss, where are you going?"

A rickshaw driver pulled up beside Kaga with a rickshaw, looking about forty or fifty years old, and he looked quite sturdy on the outside, but he was afraid that he would not be able to do heavy physical work for a few years.

"Are you familiar with this city?"

Kaga's Chinese is not good, but the other party also orders Japanese, and it is not difficult for the two to communicate. Seeing that the other party nodded vigorously, and talked about how many years he had been in the industry in broken Japanese, Kaga took out a hundred-yen bill from his wallet and put it in the other party's hand. "Just call me 'Blue'. Take me around the neighborhood. ”

"Yes, you're so polite. …… Miss Lan, no problem. Guarantee your satisfaction. In this area, villains can touch it all with their eyes closed. ”

Money is important to this man, and Kaga is no surprise. There are still many poor people in Japan, and it is strange that there are no poor people in the colonies.

"By the way, I can roughly understand Chinese."

"Okay, sit tight." The coachman carried the lever and began his hardest business of the month. One hundred yen is life-saving money for this middle-aged man. He will not hold a grudge against the other party because he is Japanese, as long as he can survive and have hope of living a good life, it doesn't matter who is pressed on it, the coachman only sees the heavy lever on his shoulder.

From the brief inquiry, Kaga had a general understanding of the situation here, and it was simply unbearable to look at it directly. Many of the soldiers stationed in the country are enough to be pulled and shot several times, and here, it is only the aborigines who are unlucky.

"Stop."

Kaga saw a small restaurant in front of her that was still open, and it just so happened that she didn't have dinner. "How's this shop?"

"Miss Lan, this shop ...... Not so good. ”

Seeing the driver's face, she knew she could see what she wanted here. "Then here, let's go in."

Stepping into the restaurant, Kaga only saw the first floor, which had no customers, 12 benches, and 6 large tables. There were only three guests seated, three drunks who were drinking with fists. The second floor seemed to be a little more crowded, but she didn't look up.

"Is there anything else to eat here?"

"Pasta, tan zi noodles." The driver was obviously familiar with the shop, and Kaga had not been able to see the word noodle in a few of the shabby menus.

The shopkeeper saw Kaga nodding, and he could already hear the problem from Kaga's strange Chinese. "This is ......"

Japanese, the answer is self-evident. It would not be surprising that a Japanese man appeared within a radius of several kilometers from the military port.

"Two bowls, here's the money." Kaga is different from other ship girls, she always carries a lot of money with her, and it is not unreasonable for her to take out continuous yen. At present, the official currency of Yizhou is the Japanese yen and Yizhou bank bills, and people will choose a stable yen compared to bank bills.

At this moment, the guests above seemed to make some movements, and Kaga looked up and saw a bowl of hot soup falling from the second floor. It's obviously a deliberate act, and if Kaga doesn't dodge, he'll be drenched in hot soup.

"Miss Lan, be careful." The coachman kindly pushed Kaga away, but his own arm was burned by the hot soup and blistered.

Seeing the downstairs driver screaming in pain, the diners above couldn't help but laugh, they didn't know that they would be greeted with an aerial bomb at any time, only heard a slave-like guy barking at the bottom.

The coachman was obviously used to being enslaved, and after a few minutes of calling, he didn't go up to reason with the diners above, and obediently stood behind Kaga.

Kaga saw two bowls of noodles on the table, and motioned for the coachman behind him to sit opposite. "Who are those?"

The coachman didn't dare at first, but hesitated for a long time, and maybe he was really hungry, so he sat on the bench opposite Kaga and bowed his head to eat. "Those are...... Death-seekers. ”

"No, I know. You don't have to answer what I know, just tell me what I don't know. ”

The coachman's gaze wandered around the diners upstairs, and he answered Kaga anyway. "Miss Lan. Those are a couple of people who have read books. You also know that if you don't read the books of sages and read the things of those Westerners, you won't be funny. They are all one organization...... I don't understand anything else. ”

"Hmph, there's a point in what you're saying." Kaga never thought about revenge on them, she saw them as just a bunch of maggots, no different from the drunken drunkards downstairs.

"You've won a prize."

After eating noodles, in the vulgar abuse upstairs, the two walked out of the restaurant. It took some time to eat noodles, and when they came out, all that was left on the street was the lights of the shops that were not closed. The number of pedestrians on the street is almost gone, but the number of people in military uniforms has increased. Right in front of Kaga, three young garrison soldiers hooked their shoulders, and they didn't notice Kaga coming out of the restaurant, and walked straight towards the small alley.

"What's that place over there?"

“…… Miss Blue. Over there...... You'd better not go. I'll take you to see a shadow puppet show. There are a few more in the evening. ”

"Nope."

Turning into the alley, the surroundings suddenly became lively, and from the outside to the inside, there were gambling houses, taverns, tea and smoke houses, bathhouses, and massage shops...... Even the air smells of decay.

"Do you drink?"

"No, not drink." The coachman didn't understand why Kaga was asking him.

Kaga looked at the people coming in and out, and reached out and clicked on the first and largest storefront. "I don't drink either. That's it. ”

When the coachman saw the dice sign hanging outside the shop, and the two fierce doormen standing outside the door, he immediately had two heads. His employer seemed to be unafraid, unaware of the dangers in the alley.
