Yoshino knew that this was the guerrilla tactic that the Chinese Communist army was best at—he had encountered it when he was in Manchuria. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"I don't believe that with such a powerful force, we can't wipe out a few CCP troops! At that time, the hundreds of thousands of anti-Japanese resistance in Manchuria were not beaten to pieces by us, and in the end, only a few hundred people fled to the Soviet Union to settle down. Qing Shui Pulse secretly pondered, "But the situation in Manchuria is different from that of Chahar. We have been operating in Manchuria for so many years, and our knowledge and familiarity with the local area is no less than that of our opponents. Moreover, the composition of the opponent's anti-alliance is too complicated, and the local foundation and organization of the Chinese Communist Army are far inferior to those in the Jin-Cha-Ji region. Coupled with the special terrain of Manchuria, once we close the passages outside the Guanxi and inside the Guan, the Anti-Japanese Union will be locked up in Manchuria by us, and it is impossible to run away if we want to, and it is impossible to get support from the Guannei, so how can we be undefeated? ”

Qing Shui's pulsating gaze swept westward over the ancient Great Wall winding on the lofty mountains, looked at the high summit of Daqing Mountain in the distance, and imagined how vast and magnificent the Great Wall and the mountain were.

"The situation in Jinchaji is different, the organization and foundation of the CCP army are much better than that of Manchuria. It is also connected to the enemy's occupied territory, and it is impossible for our troops to isolate them completely, so that they can receive a steady stream of supplies and support, and carry out a wide range of troop movements, in which they have an advantage over us. ”

Thinking of this, Qing Shui Pulse suddenly had an idea, although the situation in Manchuria was different from Chahar, but the effective experience could still be used for reference, and he decided to go back immediately to write a report and present his ideas to Chief of Staff Nakano.

Just as Qing Mizu's pulse turned around and was about to go down the castle tower to go back to write his report, there was a sudden commotion at the gate under the castle tower.

Outside the Dajing Gate in Zhangjiakou is an avenue leading to the northwest and through the ancient Great Wall to Daqingshan, where the Daqingshan guerrillas of the Communist Party of China are based. Just now, a person was sent back from the post in front, and as soon as this person appeared, it caused a commotion from the independent Sixth Brigade guarding the Great Mirror Gate: "Lieutenant Tsunoda is back, Lieutenant Tsunoda, he actually came back alive!" ”

"What's going on?" Qing Shui Pulse asked a sentry beside him. The sentry was looking down, and when he heard Qing Shui ask him a question, he hurriedly replied, "Report to the sir." It seems that the captain of our brigade has returned. ”

"Is it worth all the fuss about a little lieutenant coming back?" Qing Shui asked in confusion.

The sentry on the castle tower looked around before he lowered his voice and replied, "Sir, you don't know, Captain Tsunoda disappeared in an encounter when we went to Daqingshan to sweep last month, and after returning from the sweep, our captain announced that he was dead. Now that he suddenly appeared alive, it was a surprise to us! ”

"Missing? Killed? "At the beginning, Qing Shui Pulse was still a little confused by the second monk. But if you think about it carefully, you can clearly remember that when you served in the Kwantung Army in the past, you also encountered a similar situation - after the Japanese officers and soldiers were captured by the Chinese army, the Japanese military did not recognize them - how could the officers and soldiers of the dignified Japanese Empire be captured by the lowly Shina people? Therefore, the consistent position of the Japanese authorities is to declare that these captured officers and soldiers have been "broken," and then return their tablets to China and to their families.

If those officers and soldiers who were "broken" "unfortunately" came back alive - whether they escaped by themselves or were released by the Chinese soldiers and civilians - it would be tantamount to a big slap in the face to the military - it would be really unfortunate - this is for the captured officers and soldiers, who thought it was a good thing to go back alive, but found that they had died in battle. After asking the ins and outs of what happened, the commander of the unit would ask them to commit suicide in the spirit of bushido in order to maintain the reputation of a samurai. His ashes will then be returned to the country and to his family.

Qing Shui Pulse always thought that only the Kwantung Army would encounter such a situation, but judging from the complicated expression of the sentinel in front of him, who was mixed with joy and sorrow, it was the same: "Could it be that the North China Front Army did the same?" Although it is indeed a shameful thing for a soldier to be captured, after all, they are our own people, is it necessary to force them to commit suicide? He thought silently, and without saying a word, he turned around and walked down the long staircase down the tower, stepped on the mount tethered to the tower, and went straight to the dormitory.

The dormitory arranged by Otsuka Osa for Shimizu Pulse was in the headquarters of the "Mongolian Army" in the center of Zhangjiakou. It was originally the seat of the Chahar Provincial Government, and after the Japanese army occupied Zhangjiakou, it was used as the headquarters of the "Mongolian Army", and the wall was re-strengthened and raised, and artillery towers and pillboxes were added, transforming it into a strong fortress.

Along the way, Shimizu Pulse wondered about the fate of the young lieutenant named Tsunoda, whether he would be forced to commit suicide or return to his original unit to continue as his squad leader? Qing Shui couldn't guess, but when he thought of the "enlightened" Commander Matsushima and Chief of Staff Nakano, he was a lot relieved: "Well, the North China Front is no better than the Kwantung Army." The environment here is much more relaxed, and with Uncle Matsushima's open-mindedness in governing the army and General Nakano's benevolence, it is estimated that he will not force Tsunoda to seppuku. ”

In the blink of an eye, Qing Shui Pulse had already come to the gate of the "Garrison Army" headquarters. The sentry at the entrance of the headquarters had already been taken care of by his superiors, saying that this Qing Shui Nakazo had been sent by the North China Front Army Headquarters to inspect the work, and he must provide convenience, so he rode directly into the gate.

It stands to reason that with the rank of Qing Mizu Pulse, he can only ride outside the gate at most, and if he wants to enter the gate, he must dismount. This is entirely because he is the niece and son-in-law of the commander of the North China Front Army Matsushima and the former chief of staff of Nakano, and he is the hottest celebrity in the North China Front Command in front of him. Therefore, not only was the sentry extremely polite and thoughtful, but even the accommodation was arranged extremely comfortably, in a quiet courtyard next to the residence of the commander and chief of staff of the "Mongolian Army".

Qing Shui Pulse dismounted at the gate of the courtyard, and the guards had already led the horse diligently. He had just sat down in the house, but he heard footsteps outside the door, and was about to ask, when someone knocked on the door and said, "Is Qing Shui Zhongzuo there?" It turned out that it was Yanagawa Kaede, a staff officer of the "Garrison Army" Command who had been in charge of receiving him for the past two days.

Qing Shui Pulse hurriedly let him into the house, but saw that Yanagawa Nakasa was still carrying a food box with a stove in his hand, and although the lid of the box was not opened, the smell of salt-baked chicken had wafted out. Qing Shui's face turned red, Yanagawa Nakasa has been entertaining him with good wine and food in the past few days.

Of course, Qing Shui understood that this was the commander and chief of staff of the "Army Stationed in Mongolia" trying their best to convince him -- now the entire North China Front Army knew that he Qing Shui Pulse was the niece and son-in-law of the commander of the North China Front Army Matsushima and the former former former of Chief of Staff Nakano, and he was the hottest celebrity in the North China Front Command and a rising star in the military circles.

Who doesn't want to have such a big backstage in the headquarters of the North China Front? (To be continued.) )
