Chapter 218

What happened next is best described as "accidental". The first to find the bodies of their loved ones were an elderly woman and her daughter-in-law. The old man was small-footed, and his daughter-in-law supported him to look for it slowly, and among the corpses, one found his son and the other found his husband. The old woman trembled, reached out to touch her son's cold face, the old body seemed to have been drained of muscles, kneeling on the ground and crying silently, calloused hands grasping the land around her, when she touched a stone, the old woman stood up with difficulty.

The old woman turned around and walked towards a pillar on the side, where a ghost soldier was tied to the pillar and looked at the old woman in horror who didn't even seem to have the strength to kill chickens. The old woman's vicious eyes stared at the face of the young Japanese soldier with fluff on his mouth, and her hand slowly loosened, and the stone in her hand fell off. After a contemptuous look, the old man spat in his face.

At this time, the old woman's daughter-in-law came over, this is a twenty-something **, silently wiped the tears on her face, picked up the big stone of the fist dropped by her mother-in-law, and used all her strength to smash it on the ground beside the Japanese soldier. The Japanese soldier who closed his eyes did not feel the attack of the stones, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the two had already walked away, and it was still the daughter-in-law who was supporting her mother-in-law.

Seeing this, the young Japanese soldier suddenly burst into tears, shouting vaguely at the backs of the two in a language that no one could understand. The two did not look back, and the Japanese soldiers kept hitting the pillar behind them with their heads. Bang bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.

With the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law as an example, the rest of the people followed suit, and everyone would walk up to the Japanese soldiers and spit after finding the bodies of their relatives.

All the Japanese soldiers lowered their arrogant heads at this moment, and all the Chinese soldiers raised their chins at this moment.

It was already dark, and there were 580 corpses in total, all of which had been found by their respective relatives. Holding torches, with the help of the old folks, the relatives of the deceased carried the corpses away, and the torches on the road became dragons, and the cry shook the sky, and the miserable state was unbearable to hear.

None of the Japanese prisoners were killed by the common people, which was too unexpected. Leng Yu couldn't help but be shocked after hearing the news, and finally muttered: "These beasts can hide from the first day of the new year, but they can't hide from the fifteenth." After talking to himself, Leng Yu said to Lao Wei: "The people can't do it, let's come." Kill them all and throw them into that big pit, and I'll carry something wrong. Remember to declare their crimes, Made, and give them a judgment according to the law. ”

It's still the same big pit, and now there are no bodies in it. But soon a group of soldiers in pairs escorted the Japanese soldiers to the pit. These Japanese soldiers unexpectedly did not resist at all, and even looked quite numb, kneeling in front of the pit in a daze, and did not look up. With a thud, his body moved forward and fell. A few did not fall, and the soldier kicked him down. After one team was killed, the other team came again, and it was tossed until midnight, and all the Japanese prisoners were shot for killing innocent people, thrown into the pit, and covered with soil.

After doing this work, Leng Yu didn't report it, but reported the matter of those Japanese staff. If the cold rain is not reported, it does not mean that no one reports it. The people of the MIA are everywhere. The report was placed on Fang Dashuai's desk, and it was already noon the next day. Fang Jianxiong had just returned to Beijing when he saw this detailed process report.

Frankly speaking, the content of the report made Fang Jianxiong very incomprehensible, why didn't the relatives of these people kill them? How can the Chinese people be like this, forgiveness is useful to the Japanese, and dogs don't eat.

The report was ignited by Fang Jianxiong and burned on the spot, just as Daye didn't catch the prisoner.

The originally scheduled Sino-Japanese negotiations stubbornly began at noon on October 5. The chief representative of the Chinese delegation, Foreign Minister Wang Zhengting, the second representative of Vice Foreign Minister Wang Chonghui, and the chief secretary of the Presidential Office Gu Weijun.

The first negotiation lasted only five minutes before it ended, and it was Wang Zhengting who withdrew from the negotiations on the grounds that the qualifications of the Japanese delegates were too poor. The highest position of the representative sent by the Japanese side was actually only the Japanese minister of Ijiin, and the others were all adjutants of the military. Wang Zhengting didn't say a word, stood up and left, and threw a word to the middleman Zhu Erdian: "The identity is not equal, there is no need to talk about it." ”

The implication is that the Japanese side lacks sincerity. In that case, what else is there to talk about?

Zhu Erdian asked what was going on with the Ijiin, who was also a minister, but could this Japanese minister be compared to the British minister? At present, there is a lot of noise in Japan, the army is not crazy, and the navy, which has always been sensible, is crazy first. Daye Iron Mine was cut off, which was more uncomfortable for the Japanese Navy than killing them. The navy is a big eater of steel, and most of Japan's steel production is lost to the navy. Without steel, what can be used to build warships? Daye iron ore was cut off, and Japan's iron ore and pig iron reserves could not last for a month.

The Admiralty is clamoring to bombard major cities along the coast of China, but it is a pity that China in these years,

There are really no big cities along the coast. Guangzhou, Fuzhou, and Hangzhou are out of reach, and small cities such as Ningbo, whose shells and barrels are counted?

Some people in the Admiralty even came up with a bold plan to send a fleet to forcibly rush through Wusongkou. This plan was quickly extinguished, what are you kidding, is the 305 cannon vegetarian? At the water level of the Yangtze River, it is good to be able to run a bold warship of three or four thousand tons. What is a battleship of this level doing in there? Do you make snacks for Wang Ba near Jiangyin Fortress?

After going back and forth, in the end, the Admiralty still came up with a plan to block the mouth of the Min River and the mouth of the Yangtze River. Whenever you see a boat with a Chinese flag, you sink it, even a fishing boat. This plan, which was relatively feasible, turned out to be brought to the cabinet and was immediately rejected. Shigenobu Okuma represents the interests of the Army, and the Army has caused trouble in Tianjin, and the Navy has taken this to talk about it.

All in all, Japan is also very infighting. This fight, the matter of the negotiating delegation was delayed for two days. It was too late to send someone temporarily, so I asked Ijiin to top it first, and then there was an official representative. The struggle in the Japanese cabinet was fierce, and in the end the result was compromised. It was unanimously agreed that a full-scale war between China and Japan was unrealistic at this stage, unless the Japanese government wanted to go bankrupt.

A country that is so poor that it relies on women to exchange foreign exchange for foreign exchange cannot but say that there is still a gap in the overall strength between Japan and China. On the one hand, Japan threatened the government of the Republic of China to immediately stop its actions against Japanese businessmen and overseas Japanese, otherwise, Japan would carry out a general mobilization. As soon as the circular was transferred to the government of the Republic of China, it was reported in the morning, and in the afternoon the government of the Republic of China announced, "The National Defense Force will be organized into 20 more divisions." The submarines of the navy of the Republic of China will all attack, and once a domestic non-military target is attacked by the Japanese navy, it will take retaliatory action and resolutely sink any Japanese ship found on the sea. At the same time, it also released photos of the tragedy that took place in Daye, and declared that it would continue to take stronger retaliatory actions. ”

The stalemate between the two governments lasted for about a week, and the British government, through diplomatic channels, told the Japanese government to end the war in East Asia and fulfill its responsibilities as an ally. This briefing is somewhat of a warning in nature. Because of the incidents caused by the Qingdao War, Japan's navy was unable to form a southward formation to assist Britain in encircling and annihilating Germany's Far East Fleet, which made the British government very dissatisfied.

On 10 October, under the mediation of Britain, France, the United States, and Russia, the talks began again.

At the same time, China and Russia also had an eyebrow on the deal of 500,000 rifles, and after some bargaining, they finally sold 500,000 old 79 rifles to the Russian side at a price of 35 yuan each, and the bullets were counted separately. As for the 7mm rifle, the Russians had no choice but to do it, two calibers are already about to torture people crazy, and one more caliber, it will be really crazy. Russia is not China, and its weapons are all countries. Even now, the equipment of the Wehrmacht is divided into three calibers, and the rifles equipped by Division B are very miscellaneous, including Manshali, Mauser, Golden Hook, Type 38, etc. Only the first division is equipped with a 7mm standard rifle.

In fact, Fang Dashuai also has a rifle gap, which is not part of domestic production, part of the United States imports, and plans to complete the refitting within five years. In order to earn gold from the Russians, more than half of the B division still used old-fashioned gold hook rifles. Qingdao seized more than 10,000 38 types, and all of them were distributed to the troops below for use. As for the local security forces, they are being used on a large scale.

After the painful lesson, the French couldn't wait to agree to Fang Dashuai's conditions, a 10,000-ton hydraulic press, related production technology, and all the technology to give up the Gengzi indemnity in exchange for tanks and other weapons, and 100,000 Chinese workers to go to Europe. The British gave up the loan of 10 million pounds in exchange for the above technology and the ability to recruit Chinese workers in China.

After reaching the above agreement, Britain, France, Russia, and the United States jointly put pressure on Japan, hoping that Japan would abandon its unrealistic ideas and reach a peaceful armistice agreement with China as much as possible. The Japanese government refuses to give in lightly, so it can only drag on. There are many excuses, such as the Japanese expatriates in China, and the number of people detained by the Chinese police is as high as 5,000. There are also along the South Manchurian Railway and the Anshen Railway, the squadron swept all the way, killing and wounding more than 300 Japanese military and policemen, and detaining more than 100 staff.

The two sides continued to quarrel at the negotiating table, and the Japanese Government refused to let go, but it had no intention of continuing to fight. On the North Korean side, it seems that three more divisions are deployed, but in fact they are deploying along the Yalu River. On the Lushun side, the Japanese army shrank to the Dalian line.

The Chinese delegates continued to stare at the two tragedies in Tianjin and Daye, and how to calculate these accounts in the previous war provoked by Japan, the bombardment of Qingdao and the bombardment of Wusongkou? Both sides have no intention of continuing to fight, but continue to pestering at the negotiating table. At the same time, the Japanese Navy continues to blockade the coast of China, which is the only thing Japan can do now. If there are any more excesses, all-out war is inevitable, and both China and Japan are well aware of this.
