Map ~ Location. Players are advised to rush to the mission activation point within 72 hours.

Four days have passed since the massive explosion.

On the edge of Dayang Town, Shanghai, Luo Yun, who had just been resurrected, stood on a broken roof, looking at Dayang Town in the distance, and after being silent for a long time, he took out his motorcycle, got on the seat and rushed towards the mission site at high speed.

Luo Yun left, but the mess he left behind was a mess for the Japanese army dispatched to Shanghai.

······

Shanghai Public Concession Area.

In an exquisitely decorated room, three Japanese officers were arguing fiercely like vendors in a vegetable market, and when the quarrel was uncontrollable, their white-gloved hands kept patting the table to add momentum to their words.

The poor solid wood table, the ceramic dinner plate has already fallen to the ground and shattered, and even the joints of the table legs have a tendency to crumble.

All three officers wore general's badges on their shoulders.

And in a conference room outside the room, there are many notes.

It can be seen from these famous tags that these are reporters from major mainstream media in Europe and the United States, and they represent the mouthpieces of Europe and the United States, and represent the mainstream opinions of Europe and the United States.

In this day and age, the reports of this group of media are the main points of view that directly represent the world.

These reporters had heard about the recent explosion in the Japanese barracks, and they had learned a little bit of information from various sources.

It is said that a small group of Republic of China troops invaded the Japanese military camp at night and detonated a bomb, killing hundreds of Japanese soldiers; It is speculated that this is an internal war caused by the conflict between the two Japanese commanders, which is proof of the internal chaos of the Japanese army; Rumor has it that the Japanese navy and army clashed and there was a fire fight between them, and the explosion was a bomb dropped by a naval plane...

There are many versions, and they are in conflict with each other.

Some of these editions came from military attachés of various countries, some were inquired about insiders of the Japanese army, and some were made up nonsense, and the number of these editions was so complex that it was entirely possible to publish a gossip magazine, and these reporters came today to listen to the official explanations of the Japanese army.

These memories naturally understand that none of the official explanations on the surface are true, but the people also trust this explanation the most, and if they can find out the loopholes and then edit and process them a little, and then use a little subdued and frustrated techniques, it will be a big news that attracts attention.

In the face of these mainstream mouthpieces of Europe and the United States who are bent on making trouble, the Japanese army also has to take it seriously, and they have to find a proper reason to block the mouths of this group of guys and prevent this group of guys who are not afraid of heaven and earth from making up nonsense and damaging the image of the imperial army.

But the problem is that until now, several division commanders still have no unanimous opinion.

The first is that the pot has not yet been stabilized.

The problem is the Miura Wing under the 11th Division, and it stands to reason that this pot should be carried down by the 11th Division itself, but the 11th Division, as an eighteen veteran front-line divisions, has a deep network background, and it is naturally very strong, even if it makes a mistake, it is extremely tough.

The meaning of the commander of the 11th Division is very clear, the problem is indeed all with me, and the fault is all because I am an officer under my banner, and I have also demoted the two captains to privates, and even the joint captains have been changed, and the mistakes have been corrected.

Faced with the attitude of the 11th Division that I made mistakes but was proud, the other two division commanders were so angry that they almost smashed the table.

And the second is to find a reason.

Although it has been four days since the incident happened, and the commander of the 11th Division has personally set up an investigation team, the specific process and reasons are still confusing, and as for the fact that most of the evidence points to the fact that the two brigades of the Imperial Army were almost wiped out by more than a dozen people, no one dares to believe it.

No matter how unsuccessful the internal investigation is, the external explanation is that it cannot be delayed.

However, if you want to block the European and American media, you must find a valid reason, and you must be justified, and you must be able to withstand the deduction of military attachés of various countries, and most importantly, you must not damage the majesty of the Imperial Japanese Army.

The last point came from the order of the base camp, the Japanese base camp did not care about this matter, but let the Shanghai dispatch army solve it by itself, but they made a demand, and it was a requirement that must be met, that is, this incident must not affect the majesty of the imperial army.

So, when no one was willing to retreat, the commanders of the three divisions quarreled all the way for two hours.

With a crackling sound, in the cracking sound of the child, the 'truth' of the matter finally stopped being revised and finally finalized.

·······

Outside the press conference venue.

The commander of the 11th Division, Atsutaro Atsuto, straightened out his somewhat wrinkled military uniform, put on a new pair of gloves, and then walked up to the lecture desk with a smile.

"First of all, thank you for your interest in the Imperial Japanese Army."

"I apologize for the impact of the Imperial Army's mistakes on your work."

After speaking, the division commander even bowed.

At this time, the reporters in the audience blew up the nest.

"May I ask what mistakes have happened to your army, and have you suffered big losses?"

"Your army is known as a world-class elite army, but it made such a heavy mistake when it was camped, which is too far from my French world's first army."

“····”

Faced with the provocation of a group of reporters in the audience, Atsutaro Aketo took a few deep breaths, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and put on a smiling and indifferent attitude.

"Here's how it happened"

"The Battle of Songhu ended in a complete victory for our army, and our 11th Division was ordered to pursue the fleeing troops of the Republic of China"

"But I have to say that although the combat capability of the Republic of China army is extremely low, its retreat ability is far stronger than that of the imperial army, so for a while, our army did not have time to encircle, and was fled by the Republic of China army."

"But the retreat of the Republic of China army was too fast, and they didn't even take away the arsenal set up in Dayang Town, and there were many remnants left behind, so I left a wing of soldiers to exterminate the remnants and collect arms."

"That little remnant was actually wiped out quickly, and there were enough troops at the front, so I ordered the Miura Wing to be stationed in place."

"But just four days ago, the explosives in the arsenal suddenly exploded for no reason, and after investigation, it was found that the explosives that exploded were self-made explosives made by the Republic of China, and they were detonated after being slightly shocked because of poor production technology."

"As for the gunshots you heard before the explosion, it was our army practicing live-fire training."

Listening to Atsutaro Houdong on the stage, he opened his mouth, and the reporters in the audience naturally didn't believe any of them.

They are all mainstream media in Europe and the United States, and they are more or less connected with the military attaches in China, and they also know some military knowledge, so they can easily hear all kinds of irrationalities in their explanations.

Who would do three live-fire training sessions in the middle of the night? And the fight is so intense?

Besides, how can there be actual combat drills conducted inside their own military camps.

Besides, Dayang Town was the main battlefield of your battle with the Republic of China a month ago, and the two sides changed hands with each other more than a dozen times, who would set the arsenal at the forefront? Fool!

Atsutaro Atsuto knew better than anyone else that this reason could not withstand scrutiny, so he turned his head and slipped away after speaking, without giving this group of reporters the slightest chance to dismantle his platform.
