[The Iron Blood King of the Anti-Japanese Army] Chapter 88: Letter from the Mongolian Army

April 28, Jining City Training Ground.

More than 100 special combat personnel stood on the field in unison, waiting for the sacred moment to come.

After a rush of horses' hooves, I saw a group of cavalry from far and near, and the leader was the number one horse Zheng in the Suicha base area.

The war horse grabbed the reins in front of the warriors, and Ma Zheng skillfully jumped off the war horse, followed by Yun Jian and the others.

"Take a break!"

"Stand upright!"

"Look to the right!"

Then Tie Niu trotted in front of Ma Zheng, saluted and said, "Report to Comrade Commander, the special operations team has been assembled, please instruct!" ”

"Get in the queue!"

"Yes!"

Ma Zheng strode up to all the team members and said loudly: "Comrades: You have perfectly interpreted the meaning of the existence of the special combat team with your outstanding performance, and you should be proud, because you are the world's first professional special combat force with the purest and most combat effectiveness. At the same time, you are the only special operations brigade on the battlefield in China, and you are the first special operations unit personally trained by Ma Zheng, so it can be said that you are the pioneer of China's special forces. Now I declare that you have become a qualified special forces, and I, Ma Zheng, am proud to have you soldiers. ”

"Thank you, Chief, for your cultivation!" The special forces said in unison.

Ma Zheng said loudly: "I announce: The "Thor" special operations team has been officially established, with Tie Niu as the captain, Xu Haifeng as the political commissar, and Ouyang Zhanqiang as the chief of staff. The special combat team has three combat squads, and each combat squad has three combat squads, and the leaders of each squads are to be decided by you through internal discussions, and reported to the base area for approval and filing. ”

As soon as Ma Zheng's words fell, warm applause rang out on the training ground.

The special operations brigade was finally established, but Ma Zheng was still a little worried about the combat effectiveness of the special operations brigade, after all, the training time for these special combat personnel was really short, and it was less than four months before and after, and it would take two years for the country to train an excellent special forces soldier in later generations.

Therefore, Ma Zheng decided to personally lead the special operations team to perform several missions to make this saber sharper. In the next few days, Ma Zheng led the special operations team to attack everywhere, although the target of the attack was not very large, but each time it was easy to succeed and inflict heavy damage on the enemy.

But just when Ma Zheng was about to go to Zhangjiakou, where the headquarters of the Mongolian army was stationed, to see if there was a chance to engage the old devil of Liannuma Panna, he received an urgent telegram from Yun Jian, saying that there was an urgent matter that Ma Zheng needed to go back to deal with.

When Ma Zheng hurriedly returned to Jining, he found that it was a letter from the little devil, saying that he wanted to exchange prisoners with them. This matter is very important, and Yun Jian can't make up his mind, so he has to let Ma Zheng come back to deal with it.

The letter was sent directly by the headquarters of the Mongolian army, and was personally written by the commander of the Mongolian army, Lieutenant General Hasunuma Pan, saying that he hoped to exchange the captured Eighth Route Army or Kuomintang prisoners for the captured Japanese troops.

To be honest, Ma Zheng really didn't have much interest in this matter, mainly because he only had 370 Japanese prisoners in his hands, and even if he exchanged them, he couldn't get many people back, so he was not very interested.

However, since the letter had already arrived, Ma Zheng could not make an arbitrary claim, so he immediately ordered someone to forward the telegram to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and ask the head of the headquarters to make a decision.

Soon, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army came with instructions, asking the Suicha base area to find a way to facilitate this prisoner exchange, because there were many people captured by the Japanese army on the Eighth Route Army's side, and there were some important people among them.

Before, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and the underground organization did not put much effort into rescuing those personnel, but they were unsuccessful, and now that the little devil has offered to exchange prisoners, this is definitely a good opportunity.

Later, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army sent a list to Ma Zheng's side, all of whom were comrades who needed to be rescued urgently. Xu Yinglong glanced at it, there were more than 200 of them, and in addition to their names, there were also the names of the prisoner of war camps where they were held.

After receiving the instructions of the head of the headquarters, Ma Zheng immediately ordered someone to reply to the Japanese army, the content of which was that prisoners could be exchanged, but how to change the method required direct communication between the two sides.

The headquarters of the army stationed in Mongolia was also considered a bachelor, and immediately agreed to negotiate with Ma Zheng's department on the exchange of prisoners, and even proposed that their people could go to Jining to meet Ma Zheng.

However, they were rejected by Ma Zheng, who had time to meet them, and besides, there were too many secrets in the Suicha base area, so it was really not suitable for the Japanese to come. He immediately called the headquarters of the Mongolian army and said that he would send someone to Zhangjiakou to negotiate with them. Subsequently, Xu Xiaolin got up and went to Zhangjiakou with Ma Zheng's instructions.

In fact, the exchange of prisoners of war is really helpless for the Mongolian army. In the previous battles, Ma Zheng's headquarters won a great victory, and although they did not deliberately capture the Japanese soldiers, there are still more than 300 Japanese soldiers on Daqingshan.

After these Japanese soldiers were captured, Ma Zheng did not slaughter them, but he did not treat them with medicine. The main reason is that Ma Zheng's department doesn't have much medicine now, there is no way, it is a war now, and drugs have long been listed as strategic materials, and both the national government and the Japanese army have very strict management of this.

Although Ma Zheng's department seized a lot of medicines in the previous wars, and even set up a field hospital. But the amount of medicine is not much, plus the consumption of several times this time, there is not much left, how can it be possible to save the Japanese wounded with such a precious thing.

Therefore, the captured Japanese soldiers could only rely on their own will to support, and although they were lucky to survive, they had no choice if they could not survive.

However, the surviving Japanese soldiers were not really so lucky, and after they recovered from their injuries, they were forced to perform forced labor. Mining and building houses in the mountains have to do all the hard work. It's okay if you don't do it, in addition to having no food to eat, you have to whip and serve.

Originally, this kind of thing was to be kept strictly secret, after all, this kind of thing is unseemly. After all, a full 30 years have passed since the signing of the Hague International Convention, and the content of this Convention is basically deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

But some time ago, in order to take the bait because of a little devil, Ma Zheng deliberately ordered someone to release some news, including the treatment that these Japanese prisoners are now bringing.

After learning about the treatment and situation of these Japanese prisoners, they immediately sent troops to attack, but they were beaten to the ground twice, first the 26th Division was easily repelled by Ma Zheng's division, and this time it lost four puppet cavalry divisions, which can be said to be a heavy loss.

In desperation, the headquarters of the Mongolian army lodged a protest with the Nationalist Government, saying that the Seventh Brigade had violated the Hague International Convention and demanded that the Nationalist Government severely punish Ma Zheng's troops.

However, the Nationalist Government is not stupid, they have all heard about the achievements of Ma Zheng's subordinates, and it is very rare for such a force to fight, how can the Nationalist Government cut off its own arms. Besides, although the Seventh Brigade is subordinate to the battle sequence of the Nationalist Government, it is the armed force of the Eighth Route Army, and the Nationalist Government may not have the ability to punish Ma Zheng even if it really wants to punish him.

Therefore, the Ministry of Military Affairs righteously rejected the unreasonable demands of the troops stationed in Mongolia, and incidentally stabbed out the Japanese army's abuse and even massacre of Chinese prisoners of war, and it was the kind that had a picture and the truth, which directly led to Japan's reputation in the international community during this period of time.

This made the Japanese authorities very faceless, and the base camp instructed the troops stationed in Mongolia to immediately solve the matter and do whatever it takes.

In fact, if it was just the order of the base camp, Hasunuma Pan might not have taken it to heart. Although the power of the base camp is great, Hasunuma, as the head of the emperor's guard, is definitely a special existence, and with the support of His Majesty the Emperor, he may not pay attention to the opinions of the base camp.

But fatally, Hasunuma Pan received news that among the captured Japanese prisoners there were several people who could not be ignored, such as His Majesty the Emperor's nephew Miyamoto Ichimura and a section chief of Mitsubishi Corporation. Although these people were not under his command, they were captured in his jurisdiction, and if he could not save these people, the consequences would be serious, and in desperation, Hasunuma Pan had to write to Ma Zheng, hoping that the two sides could exchange prisoners of war.
