Chapter Twenty-Six: Why Die? (Below) (Urgent Ticket)
A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and the time came to the beginning of December of the 26th year of the Republic of China.
The moon was bright and the stars were thin, and the officers and men of the Baoshan battalion were rushing to the northwest under the cover of night.
In the past few days, the Baoshan battalion has rushed to the northwest for more than 300 miles, and the Shanghai-Nanjing railway that runs through Nanjing and Shanghai is already close at hand, and the Shanghai-Nanjing railway is not far north to the Yangtze River, and after the Yangtze River, it is the defense area of [***], and the defeated soldiers of Yue Weihan and the Baoshan battalion are safe.
In the final stage of the Battle of Songhu, due to the hasty retreat of the [***] divisions, they did not even bother to blow up the railway line, and as a result, the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway became the main transportation artery for the army to transport personnel and materials to the front line.
If conditions permitted, Yue Weihan would not mind staying along the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway to fight guerrilla warfare for a period of time.
However, this thought only flashed in Yue Weihan's mind and disappeared without a trace, although the willingness to stay in the Songhu area to fight guerrillas is beautiful, but the reality is cruel, if Yue Weihan and the Baoshan Battalion really choose to stay, at most half a month, they will be gnawed by the devil's anti-corruption troops to the scum.
The near-term effect of an international metropolis like Shanghai has absolutely no soil for the survival of guerrillas.
Because Shanghai not only has railway lines, but also a criss-crossing highway network, and a water network extending in all directions, once the whereabouts of the Baoshan battalion are exposed, the devil's army will pounce from all directions, there is no jungle to drill, there is no mountain to hide, when the time comes, even if you want to hide, you can't find a place, it can only be a dead end!
When Yue Weihan was burying his head in the road, Hua Hanlin, the leader of the advanced platoon who was in charge of exploring the road in front, suddenly turned back and reported breathlessly: "Camp, there is a ...... in front There is a case. ”
"Hidden!" As soon as Yue Weihan gave the order, the officers and soldiers of the Baoshan Battalion, who were rushing forward, suddenly dispersed.
Only then did Yue Weihan ask Hua Hanlin in a deep voice: "What's the situation ahead?" ”
"I can't tell." Hua Hanlin shook his head and said, "You better go and see for yourself." ”
Yue Weihan nodded, ordered the officers and soldiers of the battalion to rest on the spot, and then took Chi Chengfeng and other company commanders and guard platoon commander Liu Tiezhu, and followed Hua Hanlin to a low hill that was not too tall in front.
However, this devil's camp is still far away, to say the least, more than a dozen miles away.
Soon, Yue Weihan realized that something was wrong, this devil camp didn't seem to be an ordinary station!
Through the telescope, you can clearly see that there are tanks, armored cars, large trucks and three-wheeled motorcycles parked around the station, and there are still tractor cars and heavy howitzers parked in the north of the station.
Even more heart-wrenching was the fact that several armored vehicles were constantly patrolling back and forth around the station.
Such a level of vigilance is said to be a person, even if a mouse wants to sneak in, it is only afraid that it is difficult.
Putting down the binoculars, Yue Weihan couldn't help but groan, this devil's station is definitely not so simple, it doesn't look like an arsenal from the structure, let alone a field station, but like a devil's temporary headquarters! Headquarters!? Suddenly, Yue Weihan's heart began to beat violently.
With such a heavily guarded devil command, what level should it be?
It is impossible for the devil's wing or brigade headquarters to have such a high level of vigilance, and the devil's division headquarters may be possible, but aren't several of the main divisions and regiments of the little devils on the front line at this time? The divisional headquarters of the little devils generally move with the troops, and the troops are all on the front line, how can the command headquarters fall behind the rear hundreds of miles away?
Irrepressibly, a heart-pounding inference appeared in Yue Weihan's mind.
If this is not the headquarters of Matsui Ishine, commander-in-chief of the Central China Front, it must be the headquarters of Hatohiko Asakanomiya, the commander of the Shanghai Dispatch Army, who has just arrived, because the attack direction of the Tenth Army under the Central China Front is Xuancheng and Wuhu, so the command of Lieutenant General Yanagawa Heisuke, commander of the Tenth Army, cannot appear in Kunshan for immediate effect.
Judging from the time, Matsui Ishine should still be recuperating in Shanghai now, so Hatohiko Asakanomiya may have the largest surname!
At present, the devil's two-way army should have conquered Changzhou and Xuancheng, Wuhu and Nanjing have been opened, and the area from Kunshan to Jiading has become the devil's rear, and the commander of the Shanghai Dispatch Army, Chaoxiang Gong Hatohiko, also served as the commander-in-chief of the capture of Nanjing, and it is completely reasonable for him to move the headquarters forward.
"His grandma, this little devil is such a big battle!" Chi Chengfeng's eyesight is too good, although he doesn't have a telescope, he can see everything that can be seen clearly with the naked eye, and immediately exclaimed, "It's much more bullish than the devil base we blew up last time, Yingza, do you think this will be the headquarters of a devil official?" ”
Yue Weihan didn't say anything, but his mind had already begun to calculate rapidly.
The camp in front of you is the temporary headquarters of Hatohiko of Asaka Palace, and Yue Weihan knows a lot about this little devil from the royal family, because the real culprit of the tragic Nanjing Massacre is actually this little devil, and the old devil Matsui Shigen just carried the black pot for him.
This is ironclad evidence in history, before the attack on Nanjing, Matsui Shigen had issued the "Nanjing City Raid Essentials", which specifically mentioned that the military discipline and discipline of the troops should be strictly enforced, so that the Chinese [***] people would respect the might of the imperial army, and clearly pointed out that for the [***] soldiers who have surrendered, they should have a tolerant and compassionate attitude and strictly prohibit indiscriminate killing.
After the fall of Nanjing, when Matsui Shigen was paying tribute to the fallen soldiers, he once reprimanded the army with tears: "You fought hard to increase the emperor's prestige, but the atrocities of some soldiers made the emperor's prestige swept away in one fell swoop!" ”
More importantly, after the fall of Nanjing, the order to kill all the captured personnel was also signed by Hatohiko of the Asakanomiya, and it was the order signed by Hatohiko that "in principle, no prisoners shall be retained", which made the army's bestial behavior finally get out of control, and the initial massacre of prisoners of war evolved into a massacre of civilians, and finally led to the tragic Nanjing Massacre.
It can be seen from this that Matsui Ishone, who was recuperating in Shanghai at the time and had de facto stepped down as the supreme commander of the Central China Front, did not approve of the wanton massacre of prisoners of war and even civilians, as for why he did not stop Asakanomiya Hatohiko, the reason is unknown, but the biggest possibility is that he was under pressure from the base camp of the army, because Asakanomiya Hatohiko's uncle was the then chief of the general staff of the army, Prince Kanin Miyazahito.
Suddenly, Yue Weihan's mood began to stir uncontrollably, as long as he killed Hatohiko of Asakamiya, it was possible that the "Nanjing City Strategy Essentials" issued by Matsui Shigen would be truly implemented, then the Nanjing Massacre would have a chance to be avoided, which was really an irresistible temptation for Yue Weihan!
Of course, if you want to completely put an end to the bestiality of the Yue army, it is absolutely impossible, but without the demon king of Chaoxiang Palace, the possibility of the Yue army launching the Nanjing Massacre again will definitely drop a lot, and even if the massacre is inevitable, at least it will give Nanjing's [***] a little time to strengthen its defense, right?
As long as Nanjing's [***] can hold on for a period of time, not too long, as long as the refugees stranded in Nanjing can be evacuated in time, then the army will not be able to kill if they want to.
Everyone is running out, and you still have a fart? In this way, the Nanjing Massacre could not have been avoided?
Suddenly, there was only one voice left in Yue Weihan's mind - the Hatohiko of Chaoxiang Palace, who killed the dog!
Even if he paid for the lives of all the officers and soldiers of the Baoshan Battalion, even if he paid for his own life, Yue Weihan did not hesitate to do so.
Speaking from the heart, Yue Weihan is very afraid of death, and he is very greedy for life and afraid of death, but as long as the tragedy of the Nanjing Massacre can not happen again, as long as the lives of hundreds of thousands of fathers and villagers in Nanjing can be exchanged, why should Yue Weihan die? Why did all the officers and men of the Baoshan Battalion regret to die?
……
ps: Let's guess, can Yue Weihan kill Hatohiko of Asaka Palace? If so, what is the most likely means?
