Chapter Seventy-Five: Twice Famous
This is the first time that Guo Muyi's name has appeared in newspapers in the West and Japan. In the words of the Japanese press, as well as the British press. The brutal suppression of legal persons by the Cadet Army in the Federation of French Indochina shocked the world, and the one-eyed dragon general of the Cadet Army, like a devil from the abyss of hell, used extremely cruel and ruthless means to destroy many innocent French families......
The retaliation of the Cadet Army against the French plantation owners was presided over by Guo Muyi. And from the image alone, he does deserve the title of demon - one-eyed, and the light from that eye seems to be always cold.
How many French plantation owners were confiscated and thrown into prison in Phnom Penh during this operation? In fact, there are less than 200 people. And the reason why it can be called brutal is related to two photos. In these two photos, there are all corpses, and the number of corpses on each one exceeds 100 people.
These two photos are also the only achievements worth mentioning in Xiongfeng's contest with the Wolf Tooth and the Regiment Discipline Brigade. Of the thirty-one members of the Heroic Brigade that Yotai Kobayashi brought to the Federation of Indochina, only two of them left alive. It was Sergeant Shimizu and his companions who originally wanted to find an opportunity to snipe Angpos. They were lucky - because after seeing the methods of the Wolf Fang and the Solidarity Brigade to deal with the Dudley ambush force, they thought that they were invincible, and they did not dare to attack, and then they never got the opportunity again, and they were temporarily left with their lives. Later on the run, they were fortunate enough to witness the "brutal suppression" of the French plantation owners by the Cadet Army, and they also helped a Japanese agent take pictures of them. The agent was unable to escape the wolf's fangs, but the two of them relied on the one-handed escape methods they had trained in the Hsiungfeng Special Forces to run wild in the tropical jungle for about five days, and finally crossed the Mekong River into the British-controlled Siam territory, thus saving a little face for the Hsiungfeng.
In the two photos that caused an uproar in the world, there was actually only one Frenchman among the dead, and the others were local natives hired by the French. At first, some arrogant and stubborn French plantation owners completely ignored the ultimatum of the Cadet Army, believing that they did not dare to do anything to themselves, and they organized the Escort and the Cadet Army to fight with force. However, it just gave the Cadet Army the opportunity to implement the policy of "attaching equal importance to grace and power" and establish authority in the local area. In the largest battle, the convoys of the three plantations were gathered together, and thousands of men and the Cadets were fighting against each other. As a result, Guo Muyi went on a killing spree and completely annihilated this mixed escort team.
The action of the Cadet Army to clean up the cultivation of the hostile Dharma Realm can actually be described as uneventful. Of course, this is an outright challenge and unacceptable to Westerners, who are accustomed to being ashamed of the East. And so, a ridiculous scene appeared. The "Free France" government of the victim country did not say anything, and the two enemies of Japan and Great Britain actually formed a united alliance on another battlefield, and aimed the spearhead at the Cadet Army.
The Japanese army, which was famous for its brutality on the battlefield of World War II, was actually righteous and awe-inspiring, on the one hand, because they were mortal enemies with the Cadet Army, and on the other hand, it was naturally related to the crushing defeat of Xiongfeng in Hanoi. As for the British, they were clearly targeting something else.
This month, the Cadet Army did not just show its face in the Western media. Just a week earlier, in Canton, the Cadet Army had held a public trial of the British, led by Thomas the Governor of the Straits Settlements, and the Commander-in-Chief, Admiral de Blashua. When the news spread, public opinion in the world was in an uproar. The media in Germany, Italy, France (Vichy government) and other countries wanted to blow down the morale of the British people by hyping up the incident, and soon made the cause and effect of this incident known to everyone, so that the British people lost face at the same time, so that British wartime Prime Minister Churchill could only handle the matter in a low-key manner, although he was furious.
The "New MCA ** Rescue" was revealed, and the Cadet Army and the Americans became the biggest beneficiaries. The latter was thus praised by the world, and its "image of justice" was established at once; The latter has become a real hero in the eyes of overseas Chinese and overseas Chinese, and has become the hope for the future of the country in their hearts.
Thomas was sentenced to life in prison and Bai Sihua was executed, three days before the British and Japanese media revealed the "Indochina massacre". According to later British tabloids, Prime Minister Winston Churchill smashed a telephone set on the same day, which shows his inner struggle.
The four-way game in Hanoi broke out on the day Angpos and his party returned to Hanoi.
In order to rescue as many of his compatriots as possible and prevent them from falling into the "clutches" of the Cadet Army, Angbos took a two-pronged approach, either by violent means or by tendering along the way, in short, he did not spare all the French plantation owners in northeastern Laos and southeastern Vietnam, and brought them all to Hanoi. This left them with a lag of almost two weeks before they returned to Hanoi.
Angpos and the others crawled towards Hanoi like snails, which gave Yota Kobayashi and Jean Deku the opportunity to learn more about the enemy's situation. It is worth mentioning that after realizing that there were scholars mixed in the ranks of Angpos, Jean Deju was worried that these apprentices were spying on Angerbos, and gave up the established plan to persuade Angerbos once and for all. And Kobayashi, after realizing this, called Haruichiro Mano and asked him for another squadron of heroes.
As a result, before the first confrontation between the Chinese and Japanese special forces began, the ratio of strength between the two sides was 143 to 335. In terms of numbers alone, the Hsiungfeng Special Forces have the upper hand.
On the 23rd, I don't know if the heavens noticed something, but at about three o'clock in the afternoon, a light rain fell in the Hanoi area.
The street where Roland's apartment is located has been deserted since three days ago when night falls. And the reason why the locals are afraid to go out is because they walk on the street and have a feeling of being naked, as if they are being looked at by many pairs of cold eyes.
On the Japanese side, the commander was Haruichiro Mano's deputy, Shimada Shinichiro Osa.
After they met at a location in the southern suburbs of Hanoi five days ago, Shimada and Makoto Kurasaka also led a team of elites to survey the terrain around Hanoi first, and then entered Hanoi three days ago.
On the side of the Jungle Special Operations Brigade of the Cadet Army, Guo Kui, despite Ouyang Yun's opposition, personally led a squadron and two guards to reinforce Hanoi, and began to operate within three kilometers of the Angbos convoy five days ago, and organized people to survey the route back to Hanoi on the evening of the 22nd.
A large number of Xiongfeng special forces poured into Hanoi, and Cai Shaoming and other fox pupils completely entered a state of hibernation after sensing this and reporting to Guo Kui. At the same time, the students of Huang Haifu's 1st Mountain Division polished their swords and guns and prepared for a big battle.
Suddenly it rained, and Shinichiro Shimada, who was reading a book in a manor near Roland's apartment, walked out of the house, stood in the yard, looked up at the sky for a while, walked back and said to the officers such as Seiya Kurasaka: "It's tonight!" Then he waved his hand and said, "Order, everyone immediately hide and sleep, and gather at the cemetery outside the north gate at eight o'clock!" ”
At this time, Aung Pos's convoy was still about one hundred and fifty kilometers away from Hanoi. Guo Kui's convoy lagged behind them about fifteen kilometers or so. Guo Kui's first reaction when he saw the rain was the same as Shimada's, and he poked his head out of the window to look at the sky. After a while, he raised his eyebrows slightly and grinned, "It looks like it's tonight." ”
Beside him, a squadron leader of the Wolf Head Regiment asked, "Boss, do you want to inform Senior Commander Huang?" ”
"There's no need, notify Xiang Shaoyun and let him convince the French to settle the burden first. Then, drive forward for another three hours. There's a Zhuangzi there, just right for the fight! ”
"What a shame!"
Xiang Shaoyun had also guessed that the Japanese would act tonight, and before receiving the call, he was hesitating to call Guo Kui to remind him, but he relaxed at this time. "If the Japanese really dare to do it tonight, they will definitely regret it!" Thinking so, he turned to Ampos and demanded that the plantation owners be placed nearby.
