Chapter XXVIII, Ransom of Overseas Chinese

The next day, the Japanese did not continue the attack, because after some special routes, the current Japanese commander already knew that all the expatriates in Shanhaiguan had fallen into the hands of the national army, and the risk of rash attack was a bit high. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Damn, these damn Shina people have a kind of fight with our Imperial Japanese Army." The commander slammed his fist on the table and glared at one of his men: "Didn't I tell you yesterday that you only need to provoke? The provocation did not understand, and you were not told to go to those people to go to war. “

"Your Excellency Dazuo is really sorry, I am willing to apologize for my sins." The Japanese commander who commanded the operation yesterday bent down at 90 degrees, and his face was apologetic, because he was willing to apologize for his crimes.

Dazuo shook his head: "What's the use of your seppuku now, the top priority is to find a way to save our people from Shanhaiguan, otherwise I will also apologize to His Majesty the Emperor when the time comes, understand?" “

"Yes."

"Alas....." This Dazuo knocked on his head with a painful face, and he was really angry with his own waste men: "How can I save the expatriates?" ”

"Your Excellency Dazuo, there has been a message from the Chinese army, and they say that if we don't retreat within an hour, they will kill one of our compatriots every ten minutes." At this time, a young man hurriedly ran in.

"Bagaya Road." This Dazuo only felt that he was about to spurt out a mouthful of old blood, and it had always been them Japanese who bullied the Chinese, but now they were ridden on his head by the other party, and he really couldn't bear it.

"Retreat."

In the end, the Japanese army had no choice but to retreat for the sake of those expatriates in the city, although they really wanted to do it directly, but once the artillery was fired..... Even if they win this war, those people in Japan will probably eat them alive, so they can only endure the fire in their hearts and withdraw their troops. They made up their minds that as long as all the expatriates were in their hands, then they would use a terrible offensive to retaliate against the Chinese soldiers in Shanhaiguan.

"It's finally this retreat." Shi Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief, as the guard general of Shanhaiguan, after seeing the Japanese army withdraw, he finally breathed a long sigh of relief. At least he had enough time to set up his defenses and report the situation to his superiors, as well as wait for reinforcements to arrive: "Hopefully it can be delayed for a few more days." ”

On his desk, a telegram was lying quietly, with reinforcements still four days to go.

That is to say, the strength of one of their regiments needs to hold out for four days before they can get help, because all the troops around them are entangled by the Japanese army, and they can't spare their energy and strength to aid Shanhaiguan, and all the reinforcements come from the north square.

At the headquarters of the 626th Regiment, Shi Shi'an called all the officers above the company level to discuss how to deal with the next possible situation.

"It will take four days for our reinforcements to arrive, let's talk about it, how can we hold off the Japanese for four days?" Shi Shi'an supported his head with his hands in distress, hoping that someone among his subordinates would come up with some reliable suggestions.

"Isn't this just a matter of doing it directly with the little devil? As long as I, An Dexin, am alive, I will not let the little devil step into Shanhaiguan. Although An Dexin, the commander of the first battalion, had a confused expression, he was a real soldier.

Shi Shi'an couldn't help but stretch out his hand to cover his face, his love will make him fight with first-class bravery, but in terms of planning, he can only be right.

"Regiment commander, then we won't return these Japanese to them, anyway, I don't believe they dare to kill their own people." A company commander said suddenly, he seemed to be bewitched by the retreating Japanese troops, thinking that they would not dare to attack Shanhaiguan on the premise of risking harm to the people of their own country.

"It makes sense...... Shi Shi'an was a little moved, so that he could defend Shanhaiguan without much effort.

Li Shunsheng shook his head, at this time, he still had illusions about the Japanese, you must know that the Japanese are cruel but they even eat people, and they really care about the lives of a few of their own people? At that moment, he stood up: "Commander, I think we have to return these Japanese expatriates to the Japanese. “

Before Shi Shi'an could speak, the people under him immediately made a fuss: "Returning these hostages to the Japanese, aren't you joking?" Or are you a spy for the Japanese? ”

"Tsk" Li Shunsheng sighed secretly, at this time, he still has the leisure to make a fool of himself here, it's really enough.

"Shun Sheng, you go on, don't care what other people say." Shi Shi'an frowned, of course he believed that Li Shunsheng was not a spy of the Japanese or something, after all, who would take two high-ranking officials in the army with a bitter meat trick? So he hoped that Li Shunsheng would continue to speak.

"I have seen how ferocious the Japanese are in Shanghai, and now they do not dare to attack our Shanhaiguan Pass, just because they are afraid that those patriots in their country will trouble them in the future. And according to what I know about them, that's all their patience is, anyway, after the war really starts, even if they kill all the expatriates, what can they do? If nothing else, they will put the blame for the killing of the diaspora on our heads. A sneer appeared on Li Shunsheng's face: "At this time, if you still hope that the Japanese will not go to war with us, then I still advise you to go home early to nurse your child." “

In the face of Li Shunsheng's provocative tone, the people who were chirping crookedly consciously closed their mouths, didn't they find that their head of the regiment called this guy by his name directly? They only dare to bully those low-level non-commissioned officers who have no background, but have a little ability.

"Shun Sheng continues, how do you think this matter can be solved?" Shi Shi'an listened to Li Shunsheng's words, and his heart quickly drew up a draft, but he still wanted to hear what Li Shunsheng's thoughts were.

"The solution to this matter is very simple, that is, to return the expatriates to the Japanese in batches, and then tell the Japanese that we are looking for a peaceful solution to this conflict..... to numb them. If nothing else, we can hold off the Japanese for two or three days, and the rest of the time will have to be played on our own. After Li Shunsheng finished speaking, he sat down directly.

After comparing Shi Shi'an with the plan in his heart, he found that the two of them had similar ideas, and he couldn't help but think a little higher about Li Shunsheng again.
