Chapter 202 is vicious, insidious, greedy, and cowardly

The county seat of Lin'an County. The east courtyard of the Ding family compound.

Nakagawa Eichi hurriedly left the East Courtyard and walked towards the office of the main building of the Middle Courtyard. He really didn't want to, and he couldn't help answering the call of his immediate boss, General Murayama, the commander of the Japanese army in Baoding.

Knowing that Eiichi Nakagawa had left the East Temple, Hiroshi Takagi realized that this was a rare opportunity. He gently opened the door, crept into Sohan Ichiro's room by the dim light of the east courtyard, turned around and closed the door tightly.

"Oh? It's Takagi-kun, please take a seat. Sohan Ichiro stood up and greeted warmly.

"Shhhh Takagi Hirochi walked quickly to Zong Hanichiro's side and whispered in his ear: "Zong Hanjun, write a letter to your daughter immediately, and you must tell her in the letter that after seeing your letter, you must completely obey the order of the sender, and the sender will represent you, no matter what the sender says or does, you must follow him and leave immediately to join you." ”

"Huh? Takagi-kun, have you found my daughter Hanako? Where is she now? Tell me I'm going to see her right away. ”

"Zong Hanjun, now I have only found a little clue, and I haven't found Miss Hanako yet. But I'm sure I'll be able to find her. In order to convince her to follow along, you must write a letter to Hanako-san. Zong Hanjun, you should understand that this letter is very important to whether you can come out safely and smoothly and return to your side after finding it. Be quick, there will be no chance for Captain Nakagawa to come back after a while. ”

"Yes, yes, I know, I understand. Takagi-kun, please wait a moment, and I'll write right away. Sohan Ichiro walked quickly to the desk and sat down, picked up a brush and wrote a letter.

Hiroshi Takagi walked to the door, opened a crack in the door and looked out.

After writing the letter, Sohan Ichiro walked up to Takagi Hirochi with the letter and said nervously and gratefully:

"Takagi-kun, I'll give you a letter. Please, please find Hanako as soon as possible. ”

Takagi Hirochi took the letter, looked at it carefully, nodded, then folded the letter and put it in the pocket of his military uniform, stretched out his hand to open the door, and asked deliberately loudly:

"Sir, do you need to make another pot of tea?"

"Huh? Oh, no thanks. Sohan Ichiro replied knowingly.

Takagi Hirochi looked into the dimly lit, silent and empty courtyard and whispered:

"Zong Hanjun, please don't say anything to anyone about this matter, let alone say half a word to Captain Nakagawa. Because, because, if he knows, not only will he not be able to find Miss Hanako, but she may also have to worry about her life. ”

"Huh? This? Why is that? Takagi-kun, why do you say that? ”

"Zong Hanjun, don't ask so much now, I can't say too much to you. When you see your daughter, you ask her and she will know everything. ”

"Oh, I know, I see. Then please leave it to Takagi-kun. ”

"Zong Hanjun, do you still have a photo of Miss Hanako? Can you give me another one? ”

"Yes, yes." Sohan Ichiro took out a black and white photo from the pocket of his military uniform and handed it to Takagi Hirotoshi, saying, "Takagi-kun, please take it." ”

Takagi Hirochi took the photo and put it in his jacket pocket, looked at Ichiro Sohan and said solemnly:

"Zong Hanjun, this matter must be kept strictly secret, and there can be no leakage in the slightest, can you swear to His Majesty the Emperor?"

"The Emperor of Yagayalu, it is useless to swear to him. Takagi-kun, I swear to you with my life and personality that I will never say a word about this to a third person other than you and me. Please trust me. ”

"Okay, I believe. Zong Hanjun, please come out and speak. ”

Hiroshi Takagi and Ichiro Sohan came out of the house and walked to the middle of the east courtyard.

"Sir, are you still used to living here? Are you used to eating and drinking? Takagi asked with concern.

"Hmm. It's all used to it, it's all adapted, and it's very comfortable. ”

"Sir, if there's anything you don't like, or if you need anything? Please let me know, and I will do my best to please the sir. ”

"It's already good, there's nothing dissatisfying about me. Thank you, Takagi-kun. ”

After answering the phone, Eiichi Nakagawa was in a very depressed mood and was particularly depressed. Commander Murayama's orders must be carried out to the letter, but he really did not want to risk his life to go to the front in person, because there was a high risk that a large-scale fierce battle would occur. He knew that the Eighth Route Army Supplementary Regiment would definitely make full combat preparations in advance. Nakagawa Eiichi clearly understood from the intelligence sent back several times by the intelligence officers lurking in the supplementary regiment that the supplementary regiment of the Eighth Route Army was no longer the unit at the time of the sweep, and after a period of recuperation and recovery, replenishment of weapons and ammunition, replenishment of troops, and the transfer of a reinforced battalion, the current combat effectiveness of the supplementary regiment has been greatly strengthened. He knew more clearly that at the time of the sweep, the well-armed, well-trained field brigade and artillery led by Nakasa in the valley could not completely wipe out the supplementary regiment with more than 500 men. Although it is now easy to defeat the Eighth Route Army Supplementary Regiment under the command of two wings, it is really difficult to completely eliminate this only tenacious Eighth Route Army unit entrenched in the western Hebei region in one fell swoop! The more Eiichi Nakagawa thought about it, the more worried he became, and he thought as he walked. When he walked to the Moon Gate of the East Courtyard, he saw Ichiro Sohan and Hirotomo Takagi standing in the East Courtyard talking, so he stopped. Looking at Zong Hanichiro, a way to get the best of both worlds immediately popped up in his brain, and after thinking about it carefully, Nakagawa Eiichi thought that this method was too clever and wonderful, and he smiled smugly and sinisterly. Then, concealing the cunning in his heart, he walked over with a relaxed smile and asked:

"Huh? Zong Hanjun, why are you standing outside talking? ”

"Oh, I came out to breathe, and Takagi-kun came out and asked me if I wanted to make a new pot of tea? Nakagawa-kun, this assistant of yours is very good and polite, and should be cultivated well. ”

"The chief has won the award, so let's talk. Wing Commander, please notify me if something happens. With that, Hiroshi Takagi turned to leave.

Eiichi Nakagawa and Ichiro Sohan returned to the West Room South House, and the two sat on the sofa.

"Nakagawa-kun, is there any good news?"

"Yes. General Murayama is very concerned about tomorrow morning's operation and will give maximum military support. He told me that the Air Force was ready to take orders from me and that it was ready to enter the battle at any time tomorrow and that it was sure to win. ”

"Okay. I wish Nakagawa-kun victory and triumph tomorrow. ”

"Thank you. Zong Hanjun, I reported the small changes to the plan of action to General Murayama, and he thought it was good, and he agreed to approve it. Do you want to know? ”

"Me? Alas! Nakagawa-kun, am I qualified to know my current status? ”

"Of course I do. Zong Hanjun, now you have only been temporarily relieved of the command of the original troops, but you are still a soldier of the Great Japanese Empire, and you are still the senior commander of the Imperial Army. Moreover, Zong Hanjun's strategic and tactical level has always been above me. ”

"Can't say that. Zong Hanjun has won the award, which is embarrassing. ”

"Zong Hanjun is too modest. Tomorrow morning, Zong Hanjun will lead a squadron of troops to the land temple in the southwest suburbs of the county town in the capacity of a special envoy of the Baoding Imperial Army to carry out the task of exchanging captured personnel on both sides, and I will lead and command an integrated wing, two artillery squadrons, cavalry brigades, and armored troops to hide and wait in the north, east, and south directions of the land temple perimeter, and when the replacement is completed, you will lead the troops to leave the land temple immediately, and I will immediately launch a lightning attack on the supplementary regiment of the Eighth Route Army from three directions. "Eiichi Nakagawa improvised a false plan of action.

"Huh? This? Nakagawa-kun, this is not appropriate, is it? How could I, how could I, lead my troops in such a major operation? If something goes wrong, I can't afford to do that. ”

"Zong Hanjun, you don't have to worry, there won't be any accidents, I have made full preparations and detailed and careful arrangements. Our old friends will definitely win a great victory if they join forces and cooperate with the operation, and the bad result is that the Eighth Route Army will be defeated but they will not be completely and completely exterminated. That's a matter of time, though. How? Doesn't Zong Hanjun want to make any more meritorious contributions to the Japanese Empire and His Majesty the Emperor? Or are you greedy for life and afraid of death? ”

"No, no, no. Since Nakagawa-kun trusts him so much and delivers heavy responsibilities, then I am ashamed to lead the army with my mission. Zong Hanichiro said this on the surface, but in his heart he completely guessed Nakagawa Eiichi's vicious and cunning sinister intentions.
