For Nakamura Muichi and Shuzo, they have also seen the relevant intelligence information about He Zhengdao. It's just that those are written materials, and there are no detailed photos for reference, so that they can only imagine the image of He Zhengdao out of thin air.

At least looking at He Zhengdao at this moment, they all felt a little surprised and more shocked than the more information. In the information provided by the North China Front, only He Zhengdao was the youngest general of the Eighth Route Army, and he should be less than 30 years old.

But in fact, He Zhengdao's real age is still a long way from being thirty years old. It is indeed rare to be so young to be in the position of commander of a column, and to have the rank of lieutenant general recognized by the government.

Originally, in the eyes of some Japanese generals, it was too bold for the Eighth Route Army to appoint such a young general as the commander of an independent column. But in fact, the independent column was formed from scratch by He Zhengdao.

Looking at He Zhengdao with sharp words, the young image was thrown into a group of Eighth Route Army, and it is estimated that no one will think that he is the commander. Overall, the first impression of He Zhengdao is that it is very ordinary.

is such an ordinary soldier, but the North China Front has been repeatedly deflated. Even, when He Zhengdao began to become famous, some outstanding generals in the national * army who had fought against him were also a little afraid of He Zhengdao.

Faced with He Zhengdao's blunt proposal to ask them to give a reasonable explanation, Ren Jian Xiusan could only smile bitterly in the end: "General He, we are now your prisoners, how do you want to deal with us, I'm afraid that we will not be able to resist."

I don't want to say anything more about what is going on between our two armies. To use your old Chinese saying, 'the winner is the king and the loser is Kou', we are now the losers, and what you want to do with us is up to you.

It's just that I want to say that I made such a decision with Nakamura-kun today, and General He should know what it will mean for me and Nakamura-kun. We only hope that you will give us more kindness, the soldiers are innocent! ”

Don't you think your last sentence sounds shameless? The soldiers are innocent, so what did you do to our soldiers when you invaded Nanjing? Now that they are innocent, who will those victims turn to reason? ’

Looking at He Zhengdao with a solemn question on his face, as the brigade commander of the 12th Division, people didn't know how to refute He Zhengdao's words when they saw Xiusan. Regarding the Nanjing Massacre, the Japanese army actually tasted the bitter fruit.

Such a massacre seems to be to deter the soldiers and civilians who are determined to fight to the death. But in fact, it aroused the people who originally felt that it was not their own business. In the eyes of the Eighth Route Army, this was not a war, but a race war that would destroy the country and the species.

If it does not rebel angrily, the Chinese nation, which has a history of 5,000 years, may perish. Even if this statement is a bit exaggerated, it has to be said that for some people, they still know that they have to care about this matter.

In addition to arousing the hatred of the Chinese army and the people of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Japanese army was also notorious in the international community because of the Nanjing Massacre. Even though they have withdrawn from the United Nations, many countries that were originally neutral have also condemned them.

After all, some countries in Europe and the United States all advocate that 'war makes civilians go away', and such an army that likes to engage in massacres will naturally not be loved by the majority of ordinary people. This kind of condemnation has also greatly damaged the international image of the Japanese bowl.

Just when people saw that Xiusan was speechless, He Zhengdao said loudly: "For the Nanjing Massacre, our Eighth Route Army will always remember it." If, one day, I can lead my troops to Tokyo, all those involved in this matter will be killed.

Although this incident was not caused by your 12th Division, you both belong to the Japanese Army, and during the period of ruling the Northeast, how many anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians died at the muzzle of your guns? This account, we will slowly calculate it in the future.

This time, for the sake of the lives of your subordinates, you are willing to surrender to our army. Whatever your purpose, I'm going to credit you. But for the mistakes you have made in our country, you will naturally be punished as you deserve.

With regard to the treatment of your wounded, I can only give you one guarantee, that is, to give you some help in the case of giving priority to the medical conditions of our wounded. Whether you survive or not depends on your own luck.

You also need to bear some of the cost of follow-up treatment. When you come to my base, some of you must earn a corresponding subsistence supply in the form of labor. Prisoners who eat and drink for nothing, our Eighth Route Army does not serve.

In addition, you can send a report to your Kwantung Army. I know that in your Kwantung Army and other units, there are still many captured soldiers and civilians of the Anti-Japanese War. When the time comes, it can also be exchanged in the form of prisoner exchange.

If you don't want to go back there, we can arrange something for you to do. But remember, to keep you alive is to atone for your sins by labor. After all, you are the aggressors! ”

Hearing that He Zhengdao was willing to accept these wounded, people saw that Xiusan and Nakamura Muichi also breathed a long sigh of relief. It's just that they don't have much hope of returning to the Japanese army. and they shall surely die.

In contrast, perhaps the wounded and the soldiers, if possible, could be exchanged for prisoners. But for the two generals who surrendered, the Japanese army was afraid that they would be punished with the most severe punishment.

Thinking of this, people saw Xiusan and said very bluntly: "Thank you General He for your kindness!" As for me and Nakamura-kun, I'm afraid that there is no hope of returning to China in this life. If I hadn't been the commander appointed by the division commander, perhaps I would have chosen to show my loyalty.

But now that I've made this choice, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back in the future. In this life, our life and death, please also ask General He to bear more. We are also willing to accept your army's disposition of us! ”

If it is so simple, it is not good for He Zhengdao to say anything more. Directly: "As long as you obey our arrangement, we will find a way to ensure your safety." As the first general to surrender to our army, we are still very welcome.

As for your statement that you have no chance to return to China, I believe that is premature. As far as the overall situation of the War of Resistance is concerned, I do not think that you will be able to win this unjust war of aggression. To put it bluntly, you are doing the act of 'swallowing an elephant'.

Maybe you won't agree with this point of view for the time being. But in the future, I will tell you with practical actions how correct what I say today. If you want to embezzle Huaxia, it will eventually bring disaster to you.

When one day I can lead my troops to Tokyo, I will take you back with me. Perhaps in the future, you may be able to become the heroes of the bowl, the most prescient and intelligent people. ”

seems to be a bit arrogant, but it makes people see that Xiu San is not good at refuting anything. Even if he thought it was unlikely, but seeing He Zhengdao's confident expression, he suddenly felt that there was really such a day.

If He Zhengdao really has the opportunity in the future, he will lead his troops to set foot on their islands. Then it is almost foreseeable that the general in front of him, who is extremely hostile to the Japanese bowl, will definitely cause unforgettable pain to the Japanese bowl.

After negotiating these things, He Zhengdao called Wang Tianlin to his side and said: "Order the whole column, this anti-encirclement and suppression operation is over." The political commissars of the border areas in the base areas were ordered to start the post-war reconstruction work starting tomorrow.

The main forces of each division were ordered to begin their stationing in accordance with the previously agreed defense areas. The 1st Division and the Reconnaissance Brigade returned to Yulin with the headquarters. The rest of the troops began to enter the defensive phase and sent troops to resettle the people after the war.

As for these little devils who surrendered, bring them back to Yulin for me together. At the same time, the news was reported to the political commissar. Let him find a relatively quiet place to imprison these little devils. As for their handling, we will discuss them after the decision of the central government and the general headquarters. ”

'Yes, Commander! ’

'Telephone to the Central Committee and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters: From this moment on, our independent column has completed all combat tasks against encirclement and suppression. The surrender of the remnants of the 12th Division was also forwarded to the past.

As for the handling of the two Japanese major generals, the Central Committee is also requested to consult with the General Headquarters to give a reply. In addition, it is hoped that the central government and the headquarters will also dispatch some medical personnel to help treat these injured little devils. Medicine, do not need to bring it for the time being. ’

As He Zhengdao's order was conveyed, Zhou Enlai, who happened to be back in Yan'an to report to work, looked at the excited telegraph operator and woke him up. It seemed a little unexpected, but I knew that something big must have happened.

'Vice Chairman Zhou, the independent column Jiedian, the little devils they are preparing to encircle and annihilate have surrendered to us! ’

'What? ’

As soon as he heard this, Zhou Enlai, who was also shocked, hurriedly took the telegram sent by the telegraph operator. It was also incredible to learn that the independent column had captured nearly 2,000 Japanese soldiers, as well as nearly 2,000 wounded Japanese soldiers, and even two major generals.

'How is this possible!' The Twelfth Division actually surrendered to us! And two major generals! Great victory, real victory! ’

In addition to being happy, Zhou Enlai also trotted all the way to the cave where Mao Taizu was resting, and let people wake up Mao Taizu, who was also resting. Seeing this telegram, Mao Taizu was also overjoyed: "Unbelievable! ”

Also making this kind of exclamation is the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, which is as happy as the New Year. Receiving this telegram forwarded by the independent column, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army also looked jubilant. After all, this matter is more worthy of joy than the total annihilation of this division and regiment!

When a telegram of success plunged the Central Committee and the headquarters into an ecstatic atmosphere. Xiao Jinguang, who was sitting in Yulin, learned that He Zhengdao had fought such a beautiful battle, and he was also happy for this young partner.

With such a unique feat, I believe that there should be no problems with He Zhengdao's promotion in the future. And when this news spreads, I am afraid that it will shock all countries that are concerned about this war!

After all, in the eyes of many people, it is harder to get the little devils to surrender than to kill them. And now, not to mention the surrender of so many little devils, by the way, there are also two Japanese major generals who surrendered. This incident is bound to shock China and Japan!
