The news of the large-scale fraud of the 104th Division soon reached Nanjing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Because of the theft of the Type 96 long-range bomber and the bombing of the Kusaochangmen arsenal, the commander of the Central China Dispatch Army, Nishio Shouzo, was admonished by the base camp, and his mood was already very bad.

"Riverside San, what's going on with the 104th Division?"

Nishio Shouzo sat behind the large board table and looked at the river side Shozo with pity.

"Hai, the 104th Division is indeed in a little trouble." Kawabe Shozo paused slightly, and he didn't dare to face Nishio Shouzo's gaze, because when he drew up the sweeping plan, Nishio Shouzo had raised objections, and he thought that the 104th Division would be embarrassed and useful, and it would be better to replace it with the 106th Division.

However, Kawabe Shozo refused on the grounds that the 106th Division had been severely damaged in De'an, and that it had just participated in the Battle of Wuhan and urgently needed to rest and recuperate.

But now the facts have proved that Nishio Shouzo's worries are right.

Therefore, in the face of Nishio Shouzao, Kawabe Shozo is inevitably a little weak-hearted.

"A little trouble?" Nishio Shouzo said with a dark face, "Riverside San, it doesn't seem right, right?" How did I hear that the 104th Division had a large area of deception? Of the 15,000 men in the four wings, only less than 3,000 were ordered to rush to the assembly area to assemble, but the four field hospitals of the 104th Division were all crowded with 'wounded'. Is this also a little trouble? ”

"Hello." Kawabe Masasan couldn't hide, so he could only pause and say, "The 104th Division is indeed a little unpleasant this time, but the humble official has already contacted the commander of the Miyake Division about this matter just now, and the commander of the Miyake Division replied that he has rushed to the First Field Hospital for emergency treatment, and said that he will seriously deal with the injured officers and soldiers. ”

"Urgent?" Nishio Shouzo frowned and said, "What is Toshio Miyake going to do?" ”

Shozo Kawabe said: "The commander of the Miyake Division will personally sit in the field hospital and examine the wounded who have been wounded. ”

"Nani? The commander of the division as a military doctor? Nishio Shouzo's head immediately floated three black lines, and he laughed at himself, "If this matter spreads, I don't know how the North China Front and our colleagues in the Eastern Army will laugh at us, and Miyake Toshio is afraid that he will also go down in history, but not as a division commander, but as a military doctor." ”

Kawabe Shozo was speechless, but seriously, he also felt embarrassed to say it.

"I don't care about what to do right now." Nishio Shouzo knocked on the table and said, "But what about the next sweep?" Even if Toshio Miyake quells the fraud storm this time, so what? He dealt with all the more than 10,000 officers and soldiers who were wounded, how many people are left in the 104th Division? Next, how will this battle be fought? ”

Shozo Kawabe said: "Your Excellency the General, rest assured, only a few of the most evil elements will be dealt with seriously as a typical example, and most of the remaining officers and soldiers who blindly obey will only be punished by withholding their salaries, and they just take this opportunity to rectify the military discipline of the 104th Division, so that there will be no more moths in the later sweeping operations." ”

"Riverside San, I'm afraid you have overlooked a problem, time, time!" Nishio Shouzo knocked on the table and said, "Even if the 104th Division's fraud is finally quelled, how can it take three or five days to investigate and deal with so many officers and soldiers who have been injured, which will inevitably lead to a disconnect between the three armies, aren't you afraid that after Xu Rui gets the news, he will beat us up for a time difference?" Defeat the Iida detachment or the 6th Division first? ”

Kawabe Shozo said confidently: "Your Excellency the General has been overly concerned, and he has ordered the Kumamoto Division and the Iida Detachment to temporarily stop advancing, and wait for the 104th Division to deal with the fraud incident before going hand in hand, although this will delay three to five days, but it will not hinder the overall situation." ”

Nishio Shouzo didn't refute further, but just snorted and said: "I only hope that the 104th Division will not have any more moths, the Dameishan Independent Regiment is an extremely fierce army, and Xu Rui is an extremely cunning opponent, if the 104th Division has dropped the chain again and again, then this time the sweeping operation, I am afraid that the future is also worrying, Hebian Sang, you can do it yourself." ”

"Hello." The riverside is stumbling three times.

(Dividing Line)

Pukou, the 1st Field Hospital of the 104th Division.

Through the bribery of fellow military doctors, the two senior soldiers of the 108th Infantry Wing and the 1st Infantry Brigade, Ono 16 and Akita Otoichi, were finally admitted to the ward of the field hospital as they wished, and became a wounded veteran with honor, and then they only needed to lie down and recuperate with peace of mind.

Akita was timid and asked Ono Sixteen, "Ono-san, there's nothing wrong with us doing this, right?" ”

"What's the problem, it's not just the two of us who are doing this." Ono 16 snorted lightly, and said, "There are 25,000 people in the whole division, but more than half of them are injured, and the Judge Advocate General's Office can still arrest us all and shoot us to death?" You don't have to worry, I remember when I first joined the army, a fellow villager told me that the law does not hold the public accountable. ”

"The law does not blame the public?" Akita B nodded a little and finally let go.

However, after a while, Akita Otoichi said again: "However, Ono-san, we did this quite badly, as an imperial soldier, we didn't even have the courage to step on the battlefield to fight the enemy, which is really a bit embarrassing." ”

"Shame? Akita-san, you're so naïve. Ono 16 said, "I ask you, what is the most important thing for people to live in this world?" ”

"Make money." Akita Otoichi said without hesitation, "Marry a beautiful daughter-in-law, give birth to a lot of babies, and live a rich life without worrying about food and clothing." ”

"Yo Xi!" Ono Sixteen slapped his thigh and said, "People live in this world, make money to play with women, and enjoy life is the most important thing, only those uncivilized barbarians in Kyushu, Shikoku, and Hokkaido will really believe in what holy war, and will shout for what is loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, sacrifice their lives for the empire, and then stupidly go to the battlefield to fight to the death with the enemy, our Osaka is not an uncivilized wilderness, and our Osaka people will not be so stupid." ”

Akita Oiichi then asked, "Ono-san, is this Dameishan Independent Regiment really that terrible?" ”

Ono Sixteen rolled his eyes directly, and then said angrily: "Didn't you also participate in the battle of Hat Mountain?" You still ask me such an idiotic question. After a pause, Ono Sixteen said, "Let me tell you, let's not count how many soldiers were killed by the Dameishan Independent Regiment, there are already more than a dozen generals killed or captured by them. ”

Akita Yiyi was shocked when he heard this: "My God, this Dameishan Independent Regiment is really powerful." ”

"Then can there be a fake? Especially the Dameishan Independent Regiment also has a special force called Wolf Teeth, those guys are simply not people, but a group of devils, only idiots would be enemies of such devils. Ono 16 said, "We people in Osaka are never stupid, which is why so many people cheat and get hurt." ”

While the two were talking, the door of the ward was suddenly kicked open.

The door slammed against the wall with a loud bang.

Ono Sixteen and Akita Otoichi were taken aback for a moment, and when they looked up urgently, they saw a general with two general stars on his epaulettes, surrounded by a large group of adjutants and lieutenants, and it turned out to be a lieutenant general? There is only one lieutenant general in the entire 104th Division, and that is the division commander, Toshio Miyake, who is still the division commander himself?

Akita wanted to get up so that he could bow and salute the division commander.

Ono Sixteen was immediately anxious when he saw it, Akita you are a pig brain, you are injured in the thigh, according to the injury diagnosis given to you by the military doctor, you can't sit up at all now, seeing that Akita's fraud is about to be revealed, Ono Sixteen immediately screamed, this oop screamed very timely, Akita just sat up halfway, and lay back again.

Then Akita also followed with an oops, and said with a painful face: "Division Commander, I'm really sorry, we are injured, I'm afraid we won't be able to salute you." ”

Toshio Miyake looked at Ono Sixteen and Akita Otoichi with pity, and the Osaka military doctor in charge of this ward handed the medical records in his hand to Toshio Miyake, who looked at the medical records and said: "Ono Sixteen, Senior Soldier, Showa Ten Years Soldier, Akita Otoichi, Senior Soldier, Showa Ten Years Soldier, are all veterans." ”

Snorting twice, Toshio Miyake continued to read: "Injury: Blade stabbing, magnitude: serious injury, Ono-san's wound is on his left arm, because of the injury to the tendons, his arm can't be used for half a month, Akita-san's wound is on the right thigh, hurting the artery, resulting in excessive blood loss, and he needs to lie down and recuperate for at least half a month?" ”

Closing the medical record book, Toshio Miyake said again: "Ono-san, Akita-san, you are all veterans, I am confused, how can you hurt your own people in a simple assassination training?" ”

Ono 16 replied: "Division Commander, we had a bad stomach last night, we were a little weak, and our legs were also fluttering, but when we made the assassination action, the stab was crooked, and it stabbed Akita-san on the right leg, and Akita-san also stabbed me because of the pain, and stabbed my left arm, which is why I was injured." ”

"But the assassination training is with a wooden gun!" Toshio Miyake roared, "A wooden spear can also be stabbed into serious injuries? ”

"Ah, what about it......," Ono Sixteen replied unhurriedly, "It's not like we're going to battle right away, considering that there will be a brutal battle next, so Akita-san and I want to get familiar with the brutal atmosphere through assassination training, so this morning's training is with real guns and real knives."
