Chapter 48: Street Fighter (5)

Don't look at Takeda's rank as a major general, but he was also trained from the Etajima Naval Academy in his early years, and even if he was promoted to commander, he did not stop his daily physical training.

The first lesson that the junior cadets of the Naval Academy received was that as a soldier of the Imperial Navy, they must have a strong physique, and they must maintain strong physical strength and spirit at all times, so that they can have the capital to sacrifice themselves for the glory of the emperor and the country.

Therefore, although the standard of food for Japanese naval officers was very high, very few of them ate fat during their tenure. Of course, there are a few surprises among them, such as Vice Admiral Yamamoto, the current commander of the Combined Fleet, who is a man who is all contaminated with wine and wealth, but has a good popularity among his colleagues because of his free and cheerful personality.

Before being promoted to commander of the Shanghai Special Marine Corps, Takeda served as the captain of the light cruiser [Kitakami], the heavy cruiser [Kinugasa], and the "Mikuma", and also served as the chief outfitter of the Japanese Navy's newest heavy cruiser [Mogami] (the captain of the battleship between launch and official service, responsible for engineering supervision and the management of the training of the first batch of sailors). )。

The commander of the Shanghai Navy's Special Marine Corps has always been a transitional position in the Japanese Navy, and like those in the town guard office, he usually serves for no more than a year, after which he is transferred to command a detachment.

By the 15th of this month, Takeda had been in this position for a full year, and the rear admiral had already begun to prepare for his departure a few months earlier, and he had used all the channels at his disposal to dredge up relations with the upper echelons, with the aim of transferring to a more important post.

How could Major General Takeda, who was so self-motivated and full of expectations for the future, be easily sunk in the gutter.

Hearing the sound of the car door opening behind him, the major general quickly turned the door knob, and then a neat forward roll, quickly hit the car door and jumped out of the car.

"Downhill!" Watanabe swooped in as he raised his saber on the side of the carriage and roared.

"What do you want to do, Watanabe, do you want to attack a superior officer?" Rear Admiral Takeda did not carry a pistol, only a naval officer's short sword, and in the face of the enraged army commander, Takeda quickly pulled out the short sword from his sheath.

"You despicable navy scumbag, fight me like a man." Watanabe made up his mind and was ready to "go down".

The longer the time drags on, the worse the situation will be for him, and there is only one way for Watanabe to break out of this predicament, and that is to quickly subdue the cunning octopus before the men in front of him return.

The army took a step forward, quickly bypassed the Ford sedan, clenched the saber in one hand, and stared at the target in front of him with cold eyes.

"Hey, calm down, Watanabe, you have to think about the consequences of doing this, and don't joke with your future." Takeda held the navy dagger in his backhand and assumed a standard grappling stance.

"Are you scared? His Excellency Takeda. Watanabe had a mocking expression on his face, and his gaze glanced at Takeda's lower body.

"I'm so scared that I'm peeing my pants."

"No, I accidentally spilled the tea just now." Takeda hurriedly refuted loudly.

But just as the rear admiral was distracted, Watanabe suddenly slid forward, his saber swinging from the bottom left to the top right like lightning, and unleashed a clean right cut.

"Ahh With a short exclamation, the navy dagger tumbled into the air.

Takeda clutched his right wrist tightly, and before he could react next, a cold-light Type 95 General's saber had already reached the rear admiral's neck.

"Don't move! Excellency! Watanabe grabbed Takeda's shirt with a knife in one hand and the other in the other.

"Don't worry, I just used the back of the knife, and it will be a little bruised at most." Watanabe Daisa said in a deep voice.

"Hijacking a senior general, this is a serious crime of rebellion, Watanabe Daisa." Takeda clutched his wrist and shouted.

"How to condemn me, this is a matter for the superiors, now let your people stop! Excellency. Watanabe turned to the side of Takeda and grabbed the back of the admiral's neck with his left hand.

At this time, the officers and men of the Marine Corps finally discovered the abnormality on the commander's side, and two officers rushed over with a dozen soldiers.

"I will not give orders under the coercion of others." Takeda's face was righteous, and it would be better if there were no traces of water on his trouser legs.

"Commander, what's going on, don't you hurry up and let go of the commander, do you want to rebel?" A Navy captain shouted.

"Do you want to challenge the courage of an army boy, Lord Takeda?" Watanabe's hand was slightly forced, and the sharp saber cut through the epidermis, and a trace of blood immediately came out.

"Wait a minute, Watanabe, you know what you've done! It hurts! All right... Well, calm down, I'll give the order right away. Takeda felt the other party's wrist start to exert force, so he simply surrendered neatly, this army commander is simply a madman, Takeda thinks that he can't compete with this kind of guy.

The other party has already committed a serious crime, and there are a large number of witnesses on his side, so he can foresee that the future of this Dazuo is over, so why give up his life for this madman in vain.

"Kimura, go and pass my order immediately, and tell Miyamoto Nakasa to stop immediately." Takeda said to the captain.

"Put my people and the car away, and bring them to the front." Watanabe pushed Takeda's neck from behind.

"Okay, okay, bring all those troops here." Takeda hurriedly shouted.

"Oh, Commander." Captain Kimura saw that the commander's face was a little wrong, and although he was a little resistant in his heart, he still reluctantly obeyed the order.

The order was conveyed quickly, and after a while, the army soldiers brought by Watanabe were escorted by the marines and staggered to the front of the wing commander.

Because of the importance of the mission, these advance soldiers were all specially selected by Watanabe to be the elite of the wing, most of them were veterans and non-commissioned officers with actual combat experience, and even a squad was drawn from the wing flag guard team.

Now these elite soldiers have been beaten one by one with blue noses and swollen faces, and they have obviously suffered a lot under the hands of the Marines.

The army here all together had less than two hundred and fifty men, and their opponents had three squadrons of about six hundred able-bodied Marines.

These soldiers held out for a quarter of an hour under siege from the enemy, and in Watanabe's opinion, these warriors were still glorious in defeat.

"Uesugi! How are you? The Wing Commander shouted to his subordinates.

"Wing Commander! It's the Wing Captain! Seeing the current appearance of their commander, the army soldiers couldn't help but feel refreshed. Sure enough, he deserved to be a commander, and he directly won the enemy general.

"Heh, I'm fine, Captain, these octopuses are as weak as a woman's fists." Captain Uesugi, the highest-ranking squadron leader, replied with a pout, which unsurprisingly caused a wave of angry scolding from the surrounding marines.

"Watanabe Daisa, we have already done what you said, your subordinates are here, you can release Commander Takeda. I hope you'll calm down before things get out of hand. If there is any misunderstanding between the two sides, we can sit down and negotiate, and I personally think that this matter can be resolved in a more peaceful way. I hope you don't get obsessed anymore, your army has a group of rebels today, and you don't follow in the footsteps of those people. One of the admirals said as he walked slowly towards Watanabe.

"Needless to say, I've come to my senses. Now return my men's weapons and vehicles, and let them go. After saying that, Watanabe moved the saber in his hand slightly, stopping the other party's attempt to continue to approach.

"Okay, I understand, don't be impulsive, Lord Dazuo, we are all soldiers of the Imperial Kingdom, and we can't do things in the same room." Nakasa took a step back and shook his hand.

"If you understand, don't you do it, Miyamoto Nakasa." Takeda felt another opening in his neck, and hurriedly ordered loudly.

"Oh, Your Excellency, Commander." Miyamoto hurriedly saluted, then turned his face to his subordinates and made a summoning gesture.

Weapons and equipment that were quickly taken by the Marines were sent over and stacked in front of the Army soldiers.

"Uesugi, now that the troops are led by you, I order you to take them on their mission." Watanabe said to the squadron leader.

"What about you, Wing Commander." Uesugi asked, confused.

"I have committed such a serious crime, I am no longer qualified to continue to command the troops, I want to stay here and wait for my superiors to deal with me." Watanabe replied indifferently.

"No, Captain Wing, you made this decision because we had to do it as a last resort, and the responsibility should be borne entirely by these octopuses." Uesugi said anxiously.

"Red deer! Say no more, you are an Imperial soldier, obey orders immediately. Watanabe scolded.

"Huh! Understood, Wing Commander. Watanabe puffed up his chest and saluted his co-captain respectfully.
