Chapter 312: Shimoda Murori
Terauchi Shouichi was worried about the joint attack on Dezhou, worried about not being able to catch Xiao Siming and the eastward advance detachment of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army, worried about the North China Front Army dragging the hind legs of the Wuhan Battle, and worried about the emptiness of troops in North China. Apex M. update the fastest sorrow to the end, Terauchi Shouichi can only vent all his sorrows into the body of the White Russian courtesan who rides thousands of people across the country.
In any case, the Japanese army finally recaptured Texas and regained control of the Jinpu Road. The highways and waterways from Beiping and Tianjin to Dezhou were opened, and the strategic goal of regaining control of the North China Plain was the first step to be achieved.
Terauchi Shouichi was so busy that he went to sleep with the White Russian courtesan in his arms, but Shimoda Murori, the Minister of Railways of the North China Front, did not have that blessing, he had to think about how to repair the Luokou Yellow River Railway Bridge and restore the opening of Jinpu Road!
After leaving Terauchi Shouichi's office, Shimoda Muroli did not stop for a moment, returned to his office, ordered his troops, and personally led the officials and engineering and technical personnel in charge of railway engineering of the North China Front Army, transferred a special car, and drove to the bank of the Ziya River at a gallop to inspect the progress of the Ziya River Railway Bridge.
It was already around 9 o'clock, and it was already dark, and the stars and the lights on the bridge restoration site illuminated the silent Ziya River in a dappled light, a bit like the European oil painting hanging in Shimodamurori's office.
This situation and this scene attracted the old devil Shimoda Muroli to make a lot of poetry, and he even casually chanted the famous contemporary Chinese poet Xu Zhimo's famous poem "Farewell Kangqiao" in Chinese: "Gently I left,
As I come gently;
I beckoned gently,
Be the clouds of the western heavens. Vertex. Fastest updates
----
The golden willows on the banks of the river,
is the bride in the sunset;
Bright shadows in the waves,
It ripples in my heart.
----
Vibus 1 on soft mud,
oily swagger underwater 2;
In the soft waves of the River Cam,
I'm willing to be a water weed!
----
A pool in the shade of the elm,
It's not a clear spring, it's a rainbow in the sky;
Crushed among the floating algae,
Precipitated rainbow-like dreams.
----
Looking for a dream? Hold a penny 3,
Wander to the greener grass4;
Loaded with a boatload of starlight,
Sing in the starlight.
----
But I can't put on songs,
Quietly is the parting sheng flute;
The summer worm is also silent for me,
Silence is Cambridge tonight!
----
Quietly I'm gone,
As I came quietly;
I waved my sleeves,
Do not take away a single cloud. ”
The construction site is very noisy, the old devil Shimata Muroli stands at the north end of the bridge, looking down at the slowly flowing Ziya River, with a look of intoxication, as if the telescope on his chest and the command knife he carries in his waist are not combat equipment, but a huge pen like a rafter that paints poems and depicts the parting feelings of chanting!
Xu Zhimo's "Farewell to Kangqiao" expresses the sorrow and farewell when bidding farewell to his alma mater, and has a relationship with the scene in front of him!
The officers and railway engineers of the North China Front Army's Railway Department, who accompanied them, did not know which tendon of His Excellency Major General had turned wrong, and they actually recited in Chinese on the busy construction site a poem that none of them could understand, and which poet did not know which dynasty, which generation!
After Shimoda Muroli finished chanting, he looked a little lonely, turned to the officers accompanying him and said, "My grandfather and father were both sinologists, and they admired the ancient civilization of China very much. Vertex. The reason why my grandfather asked me to major in road and bridge is to let me figure out the secret of why Zhaozhou Bridge has stood for thousands of years without falling. Unexpectedly, during the Russo-Japanese War, the army issued a conscription order to recruit me. Since then, I have worked hard in Korea and Manchuria for the integration of Japan, Manchuria, Mongolia and the Emperor in Korea, built so many railways and highways, and built so many bridges, and I sincerely hope that the Japanese Army will be able to penetrate the Guannai through the railways and highways I built, cross the Yellow River, cross the Yangtze River, and merge China's splendid rivers and mountains into the territory of our Great Japanese Empire. Unexpectedly, the people of China still have a barbaric understanding of railways, and they do not know the important role of railways and highways in economic development. Especially that Xiao Siming, it is estimated that he is illiterate! He should really be allowed to study in the Great Japanese Empire for a few years, learn modern civilization, scientific and technological knowledge, and let him know how difficult it is to build roads and bridges, and it is estimated that he will not be so rampant in destroying railways and blowing up bridges! ”
No one could have imagined that Shimoda Muroli, who finished chanting Xu Zhimo's "Farewell Kangqiao" in Chinese, would say such sour, incorruptible and shameful words!
The officers, engineers and technicians of the North China Front Army's Ministry of Railways who accompanied him would not be able to take over Tanmuro's force!
Shimoda Murori inspected the restoration project of the Ziya River Railway Bridge. Vertices M. updates the fastest
Not bad, because the Eighth Route Army did not attack the Japanese army again to disturb the bridge repair team, the repair project of the Ziya River Railway Bridge is progressing very smoothly, after the Japanese railway department day and night construction, the bridge has been basically formed, at most half a month, the bridge deck can be paved.
Thinking about what General Terauchi Shouichi said about the need to open the Jinpu Road to traffic in July, Shimoda Murori called the officers in charge of the garrison of the Ziya River Bridge and the officers who were in charge of the construction of the Ziya River Bridge together, and instructed them to work hard to speed up the construction progress, and it must be completed and opened to traffic by the end of June!
After inspecting the Ziya River Bridge, Shimoda Murori and his entourage crossed the Ziya River on a Japanese motorboat, and then changed to a car prepared by the Third Railway Wing and marched along the railway toward Cangzhou and Dezhou.
In the vast night, the motorcade of Shimoda Murori's party flashed its lights and moved forward as fast as it could. Vertices M. updates the fastest
At this time, due to the large-scale invasion of the Japanese puppet army, there were no guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army on the Jinpu Road, and Shimoda Muroli and his party were very fast, basically running 30 to 40 kilometers per hour.
As soon as he entered the territory of Toko, Shimoda Murori's brow furrowed, because there had already been a situation where several kilometers and kilometers of railways had been destroyed.
When Dongguang passed, Shimoda Muroli not only frowned, but his heart was clenched. Because except for Wuqiao County, the railways at the north and south ends of the entire Wuqiao territory have all been destroyed! Moreover, the destruction is so complete!
Similar to the scene of the destruction of the railway by the Eighth Route Army in history, when the troops of the eastward advance detachment destroyed the railway, they also mainly used to cut the rails. It's just a little more thorough1
Needless to say, the Eighth Route Army was transported back to the base area and buried, waiting for the situation to stabilize so that the arsenal could make guns and cannons; Needless to say, the sleepers were also buried when they were transported back to the base area, which could be used as firewood, and could be used to repair fortifications and tunnels; Even the sand and gravel on the roadbed were rushed away by the villagers, pulled back to their yards and buried them, and waited for the little devils to repair the courtyard walls and pave the road.
When he arrived in Texas, Shimoda Muroli simply stopped getting off the train to check, because he was already mad, the entire railway was completely destroyed, and he had to rebuild the roadbed, rebuild the wires, telephone lines, reinstall the signal lights, and everything had to start all over again!
Shimoda Muroli scolded Xiao Siming in his heart thousands of times for being a coward, a thief, a bandit, a robber, and despicable and shameless, and cursed Xiao Siming to go to hell early, eat guns early, curse Xiao Siming for not finding a wife and being a bachelor in his life, cursed Xiao Siming for not raising his penis when he met the top brand in the kiln, and cursed Xiao Siming for having no children!
In short, Major General Shimoda Murori, Minister of Railways of the North China Front Army of the Japanese Army, who had a foundation in Sinology, chose the most vicious words he knew about the Japanese and the Chinese, and gave them all to Xiao Siming!
After cursing Xiao Siming, Shimoda Muroli secretly scolded General Terauchi Shouichi for being incompetent, Lieutenant General Okabe Naosaburo for being incompetent, Major General Kawabe Shozo for being incompetent, Lieutenant General Kawayotoshi for being incompetent, Major General Kita Seiichi for being incompetent, Lieutenant General Kizuki Kiyojiro, the former commander of the First Army, being incompetent, Lieutenant General Mitsu Mijiro, the current commander of the First Army, Lieutenant General Nishio Shouzo, the former commander of the Second Army and the current director of education of the Army, being incompetent, and the current commander of the Second Army, Lieutenant General Higashikuernomiya Tsukihiko Wang, for being incompetent, and he couldn't even destroy the Tsuchihachi Road and protect the safety of the railway. Let the Empire of Japan waste money in order to repair the railroad that was damaged by the Dirt Eight Road!
In particular, General Terauchi Shouichi is arbitrary, self-righteous, indiscriminate, reprimanding him, and coercing him, which is simply unreasonable!
Scolding and scolding, Shimoda Muroli suddenly remembered that this railway garrison was the responsibility of his North China Front Army's Ministry of Railways, and the Second Railway Wing, the Third Railway Wing, including the Fourth Tiandao Independent Brigade and the Fifth Railway Independent Brigade, which included the collective jade shattering, were all within the formation sequence of the Railway Department of his North China Front Army. Speaking of which, he deserves to be scolded the most and the most humiliating! No wonder the general of the temple threatened to send him to court-martial!
Major General Shimoda Muroli stopped scolding, but he didn't feel ashamed, because the railway was destroyed by the Eighth Route Army, and the garrison was poorly guarded, that was because the garrison had poor combat effectiveness, and there was no equipment like the Guards Division, the Second Division, and the Fifth Division, so could he be blamed?
Shimoda Murori immediately cheered up and continued to do what he had to do!
The railway mileage from Beijing to Luokou is almost 500 kilometers, and Shimoda Muroli set out from Beijing in the evening, first took a train to inspect the construction site of the Ziyahe Railway Bridge, and then changed cars to the south, walked all the way, and left the officers and engineers he brought along the way, so that they could organize forces on the spot to investigate the damage on the spot, and prepare to start formulating a plan for emergency repairs.
It wasn't until noon the next day that Shimoda Murori finally arrived at the Luokou Bridge.
Standing at the west end of the Luokou Bridge, looking at the piers of the Yellow River that stood in the Yellow River under the scorching sun, only half of them were blown up, Shimoda Muroli's heart had fallen into the 10,000-year-old ice cave, and it was so cold that he almost froze to death!
Seeing that His Excellency the Major General's face was pale, his lips were blue, and his eyes were protruding, like a dead man, the officers who accompanied him hurriedly helped him to the ground, pinched him, fed him with pills, and poured water, and hurriedly rescued him, and finally relieved Shimodamuro's strength.
Shimoda Muroli, who had eased his strength, stared at the half-cut bridge pier on the Yellow River with stunned eyes, and muttered to himself: "Your Excellency Commander, this is sincere in letting me go to a military court!" (To be continued.) )
