Section IV War I

A large number of troops gathered at the Chongqing West Railway Station in Shapingba, a group of soldiers in full gear sat on the platform, the station was surrounded by military police, the workers at the station assisted the artillery to lift the heavy 105 howitzers and Dodge trucks onto the train, and the curious citizens looked at this majestic army with great interest from afar. Full // Ben // Small // Say // Net [Chinese. ]

In addition to the curious citizens, many hawkers also carry baskets to peddle outside the station, now these soldiers have money, Chongqing will not be forced to buy and sell, military discipline is strict. There is a small teahouse on a hillside not far from the station, on a table in the window of the teahouse, a middle-aged man in a gray robe sits by the window, like everyone else, in front of him is a bowl of tea and melon seeds, and a newspaper is placed next to the teacup, he looks out the window from time to time, and the station in the distance is busy and orderly.

A few more people came into the teahouse, and the proprietress enthusiastically led them to an empty table, and then wiped the table neatly, "Two bowls of flower tea, a plate of peanuts and a plate of melon seeds." The guest said, "Okay, sit down." The proprietress said enthusiastically and then tilted her neck: "Two bowls of flower tea, a plate of peanuts and a plate of melon seeds!" ”

Then walked into the back room in a hurry, passing by the window the gray robe did not move, still looking out of the window, the proprietress glanced at him, the table was very clean, the melon seeds did not move at all, and she saw a few strange symbols in the small book in front of the person, and a few numbers next to it. The proprietress has been running a teahouse here for almost ten years, and she has never seen this person before, but in the last few days, this person has come to the teahouse every day, and every time she sits in this position until the sun goes down.

The proprietress looked at the sky, the sun was already setting in the west, and the guest was probably leaving, and sure enough, when she brought out the tea from the back room. The gray robe whispered, "Checkout." ”

"Okay, the guests will be here soon." The proprietress neatly put tea and melon seeds and peanuts on the table of the new guests. Then he turned around and walked quickly to the gray robe table: "Mr. Huang, a total of five dimes." ”

Mr. Huang took out the five dimes and gently placed it on the table, then turned around and left the teahouse, and he left. The proprietress couldn't help but glance at the two people at the other table, those two people were also regular customers of this teahouse from time to time, they came with Mr. Huang, and there were a few with them, but they didn't come together, sometimes alone. Sometimes a few people, sometimes in the morning, sometimes in the afternoon, in short, as long as Mr. Huang is there, they will come, and when Mr. Huang leaves, they will leave.

After Mr. Huang left the teahouse, he walked slowly to Shapingba, and then boarded a bus, but when the bus was about to start, he suddenly dodged and got off. Then walk briskly into a store. Then quickly exit through the back door.

An hour later, Mr. Huang returned to a small hotel in Shizhong District. The hotel waiter didn't say anything when he saw him come in, just gave him a look. Mr. Huang walked directly in the direction of the manager's office.

"Shi Yijun, how is it?" See him come in. In the manager's room, a thirty-six or seventeen-year-old man with glasses with dark skin stepped forward.

Shi Yi didn't answer, but walked to the sofa and sat down, then took out a cigarette, the man with glasses immediately took out a lighter and lit it for him, Shi Yi took a long breath, and then sighed, the man with glasses showed an anxious look in his eyes: "Why didn't you find it?" ”

"It's almost clear," Shi Yi shook his head and said, and before the man in glasses could show his joy, he muttered again, "Terrible, terrible, it's unimaginable." ”

"What's wrong?" The man with glasses asked puzzled, after the formation of the new group, the base camp was very interested in this new group army, and secretly ordered them to immediately obtain information on the equipment, training, and number of people of the group army, but since the last anti-Japanese incident, the Japanese spy organization in Chongqing has been greatly attacked, and because it is located inland, the Japanese military department does not attach importance to it, Shi Yi has always been in a state of lonely fighting, until this year, after the establishment of the new group army, the army suddenly discovered that there is a new force in southwest China, and they have too little information about this force, Only then did they begin to strengthen their espionage work in Chongqing, and this glasses man was newly sent to Chongqing to act as Shi Yi's assistant, and their first task was to obtain information on the weaponry, training, and number of people of the new First Group Army.

This information may be easy to obtain in other troops, but Shi Yi has been in Chongqing for three years, but he knows that the development team seems to be undefended, and the actual defense is extremely tight, and in the past three years, he has obtained very little military information, and it is easy to develop an intelligence officer in the development team, but the available local intelligence is also pitiful, and he deliberately approached a few officers, either transferred away for some reason, or it is difficult to get intelligence from not important posts.

After two months, they did not obtain the corresponding information, just when they were a little cornered and planned to force the intelligence officer to take a risk, but the news came that the new group army was going to carry out a cross-regional exercise, and after they learned through the intelligence officer the location of the army's boarding, Shi Yi went to the West Railway Station to take a turn and found the teahouse on the hillside, so he had an idea, and ran to the teahouse every day to see and count. ///

"Jinshan-kun, please remember," Shi Yi sighed and said, Jinshan returned to his seat, picked up the pen and looked at Shi Yi: "The pack horses are unknown, eighteen stuffy tank carriages, calculated according to one row and one carriage, a total of eighteen rows, six seven-five mountain cannons, and the number of mules and horses is unknown." Three light machine guns per platoon, fourteen to twenty mortars, four to five heavy machine guns.... ”

"Finished?" Jinshan asked, Shi Yi nodded, Jinshan flipped through the small book, counted it slightly, he frowned and said, "Shi Yijun, you are not mistaken, right?" ”

Shi Yi shook his head, and he asked silently, "Did you come back from the forced water?" ”

"I'm already back," replied, "and those who go by land will generally not be there after four o'clock." ”

"I guess today is the last batch, you can count, how many things have we found in total?"

"Haiyi," Jin Shan turned to the front, counted each number, and after a while, he raised his head and looked at Shi Yi with a frown, and said suspiciously: "This is impossible, the equipment of one of their divisions has already surpassed one of our brigades, and it is about to catch up with one of our standing divisions." 105 howitzers are twenty-four to twenty-six, even if two divisions, minus half, there are twelve to thirteen, and then there are hundreds of mortars, as well as seventy-five mountain guns, infantry guns, and nearly thirty cars, isn't this better than the equipment of their Central Army, even if it is much stronger than the so-called German armament division, are we fooled? ”

Shi Yi didn't speak, he got up and walked to the window, looked out of the window blankly, and said for a long time: "That's why I said it's terrible, unimaginable." When I came to Chongqing three years ago, the industry here was just starting, but now if you look at it, how many steel plants, automobile factories, trains, electronics factories, machinery factories, and chemical factories are there? Have you counted? ”

Jinshan was silent, when he first accepted the task, he was quite unimpressed, Sichuan, Chinese mainland, there is just a barren land, China's most prosperous Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, he has seen, but there are only some light industries, and the industry of the empire cannot be compared at all; But when he arrived in Chongqing, he found that there was another sky here, with many factories and developed heavy industry, and he was very surprised to find that this phone had caught up with the imperial products in terms of manufacturing accuracy and craftsmanship; The cars on the street are actually made in Chongqing; The streets are clean and tidy, the market is thriving, and this is simply an outlier and a paradise in war-torn China.

"The branch is too big," Shi Yi's tone was very heavy: "The development of just one corner poses a threat to the empire, they have rich coal, iron and copper mines, and all the raw materials needed for modern industry, look at it, four years, the southwest development has only been carried out for four years, this is his result!" ”

Shi Yi roared almost out of his chest, and he roared, "If we don't do it again, we won't need to do it," he turned around and grabbed Jinshan's shoulders and shook it vigorously: "What are those cowards in the government doing?" What are you waiting for? Look at them, these inferior Chinans, they occupy such fertile land, so abundant resources, do they deserve it? No, it's just us, the people of Amaterasu. What the bureaucrats are thinking, they should immediately start a war and occupy the land in its entirety. ”

Shi Yi's shout frightened Jinshan, he had never seen Shi Yi so gaffe: "Shi Yijun, Shi Yijun." What's wrong with you? What's wrong with you? ”

Jinshan's cry made Shi Yi sober up a little, and he looked at Jinshan's eyes with a hint of guilt: "I'm sorry, Jinshan-kun." ”

"Shi Yijun, although Chongqing has developed rapidly, compared with the empire, the gap is still very large, no matter how their army develops, their navy will not be able to catch up with the empire in twenty years." Oyama said in a hurried tone: "Besides, the armament of the empire comes not only from Mitsubishi, but also from bushido, and the imperial army armed with the spirit of bushido is invincible!" ”

Shi Yi slowly returned to the sofa, and nodded slowly after a long time: "You're right, Konyama-kun, the Imperial Japanese Army is invincible; But if we don't go to war now, we will have to make even greater sacrifices in the future to conquer China. ”

Shi Yi uses the Japanese usual ventriloquilore, and his meaning is clear, if there is no war now, there will be no need to go to war in the future, because if this development continues, China will have 800,000 such equipped land forces within five years, and ten years later will have at least 1.5 million such equipment of the army, the empire's military superiority will be gone, in the face of such a giant neighbor, can Japan still declare war? I am afraid that Japan will have to switch from offensive to defense and fight to defend Manchuria.

"When I came," said the near-mountain, "I heard that there would be an incident similar to Wicker Lake in North China this year. ”
