Chapter 1097: The Resumption of War (1)

In the aftermath of the earthquake, Tokyo certainly cannot be said to be silent, after all, it is not a dead city despite a disaster.

Even so, Tokyo has a sense of silence. Compared to Tokyo in the past, it is also a little less noisy and noisy.

This is not only because there are almost no cars or trams in the city anymore, but also because the once bustling street market is long gone. All the more so because after the disaster, the people of the city have no intention of returning to the noise of the past―――――― at least for now.

But it is precisely because of this that when there is a continuous sound of gunfire in the city, the residents of the city are so surprised and shocked.

Some people even mistakenly think that it is firecrackers―――――― although Japan has indeed fought a lot of wars in recent years, but it is fair to say that since the Meiji Restoration, wars have rarely occurred in Japan, which also leads to the fact that many Japanese citizens have always been in a relatively peaceful country.

Just like the Chinese people of later generations, they thought it was firecrackers when they heard the gunshots.

Needless to say, setting off firecrackers in such a sad environment can be irritating. After all, even in Japan, things like fireworks are used for celebration.

However, unlike those civilians who live in peacetime, the other group of people does not think that this is fireworks, let alone that anyone would set off fireworks in such an environment.

Soon a group of soldiers who were maintaining order in the city and also helping the victims sensed that something was wrong. And immediately ran in the direction where the gunshots came.

Since the earthquake, the Japanese government has issued an order. A group of troops was mobilized and moved into Tokyo.

On the one hand, it was for the rescue operation, although the fire killed many people. But many of those buried under the rubble are still alive. At this time, a large number of people are very much needed to help. As for the other reason, of course, it is to maintain order in the city. After all, after a disaster, there are usually not too many people who take advantage of the fire to rob...

It is precisely because of this relationship that there are a considerable number of troops in the city of Tokyo.

However, when the soldiers ran to the place, they were shocked by what appeared in front of them.

"What the hell is going on!"

Quickly running to the side of a few people who looked like police officers, the squad leader couldn't help but ask.

When he first heard the gunshots, he thought that the police or the army in the city had encountered a large group of thieves, which was why there was such a large-scale firefight.

Who thought of the place after that. What they saw was a tough battle, and they looked at the flag hanging on the building in the distance, and the one in the distance was still the appearance of the Chinese embassy.

Although the squad leader can be said to have no good impression of China, he still understands what the consequences of attacking the Chinese embassy are. Of course, if there is an order from his superiors, he will not care. The problem is that he has not received any orders now, and the people who are attacking the embassy in front of him seem to be just a simple rabble―――――― at least the captain has now seen a group of people, holding some rudimentary cold weapons in their hands. And the few who seem to be close to the government are just ordinary police officers, no matter how you look at it, this attack on the Chinese embassy. It's not like you've got authorization from above.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Although it is true that those people did not receive any orders and authorizations, when facing these soldiers, those people put on a righteous appearance.

"Do you need any reason to attack these Chinese!" As he spoke, the man gritted his teeth and looked at the battlefield in the distance. "These damn Chinese. Dare to resist! ”

Looking at the person in front of him, the squad leader couldn't help but have a feeling of crying and laughing.

Why you can attack each other. And the other party can't resist?

But now was not the time to think about these things, just as the squad leader was considering whether to step forward and stop the farce in front of him. Suddenly, he heard the man just say to him.

"Hell, are you just watching our people being slaughtered, are you still soldiers!!" Obviously, the man was very unhappy with the way they were standing here, watching their own people bleed and die in the distance...

Hearing the man's words, the team leader hesitated.

In the final analysis, there is no order for this matter, and there is no order for it, and when he does it, there is some resistance. After all, there is still some difference between him and those who are already mad, and the current Japanese Army is not yet arrogant to the future generations.

However, although he did not intend to do so, that did not mean that his subordinates did the same.

Looking at the compatriots who were bleeding and dying in the distance, several soldiers soon surrounded the squad leader.

"Captain, let's get involved!"

"Yes, in this case, we must teach those Chinese some lessons!"

No matter what country's military is, it may be difficult to control their own feelings when they witness the slaughter of their compatriots, especially with the Japanese, even if these Japanese thugs can actually be called completely deserved. But even so, seeing their compatriots screaming and wailing in the distance, there were still many soldiers who couldn't restrain themselves.

However, in the face of his subordinates' words, the squad leader hesitated.

He didn't know if he should intervene in this battle or find a way to stop the situation.

Seeing that his captain was so indecisive, a few soldiers couldn't help but dodge and stomp their feet, and then picked up their weapons and ran directly to the 'front line'. For him, he can no longer tolerate the "massacre" of his own "compatriots" by the Chinese.

It just so happened that at this time, the person not long ago fanned the flames again. "We got the news that the Chinese were hoarding a lot of food and medicine. These are things that our compatriots desperately need, and yet the damned Chinese are not willing to share them with us. If you're still Japanese, you should rush with us at this time. Instead of watching our fellow citizens starve, or die a painful death because of lack of medicine! ”

Hearing this, the Japanese could no longer restrain themselves, and soon some other soldiers rushed into the battle group. Then, after shaking his head, the squad leader could only choose to join the battle group with him.

On the one hand, as a Japanese, this is his inevitable choice, and on the other hand, if he doesn't follow him at this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to continue to command his subordinates in the future.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Actually, it has always been. Li Feng and the others did not use all their strength, even when they carried heavy machine guns.

After all, there are only some thugs and some policemen on the other side, and it is not enough for them to use all their strength, not to mention that they must also save some ammunition as much as possible―――――― although there are indeed a lot of weapons in the embassy, but the amount of ammunition is very limited.

In the final analysis, this is just a precautionary measure, and a few people can imagine that a diplomatic embassy like theirs can actually encounter such a 'positional war'.

Soon after, however, with the intervention of some regular troops. Things suddenly became complicated, and the pressure on Li Feng and the others increased a lot.

After all, they are regular soldiers, and they are completely different from ordinary mobs and police, even if they have not been on the battlefield. I also know what to do on the battlefield. What's more, some of these people retired from North Korea back then...

And as time went on, the number of Japanese soldiers who joined the war group became more and more.

In this case. Apparently this is no longer the time to hide for clumsiness.

"Right now, get all your gear out..."

Look at the distance with skillful movements. The Japanese soldiers who were constantly approaching the embassy, Li Feng said loudly to the subordinates beside him.

"Yes!" Heard Li Feng's order. The subordinate nodded immediately.

The so-called all equipment is nothing more than light and heavy machine guns and submachine guns, as well as shotguns, grenade launchers and grenades.

If it weren't for the fact that this was an embassy and not the front line of the Western Front, maybe a mortar might have been made. Even so, these weapons quickly knocked back the first group of Japanese soldiers to charge.

"Bastards, why are you so useless!"

Originally, the Japanese who saw the army on the field and thought that they could finally teach those Chinese a lesson, after seeing the army rushing forward after leaving a few corpses, they also retreated with ashes, the original Japanese couldn't help but roar loudly at a Japanese commander on the battlefield.

However, this commander did not have the same good temper as the squad leader just now, and he was not only a squadron leader, but also very rough in appearance. After hearing the man's words, he felt offended, and immediately gave the guy a slap in the face.

"You know what!"

If it weren't for the fact that there were a lot of people here, and it was on the battlefield, maybe it would be possible to chop him alive.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Seeing that the squadron leader seemed to be about to eat people, the very arrogant guy just now was suddenly a little speechless.

After all, he was just a commoner. Although he is a person in a mixed organization, it is impossible to compare with the army. So even if he was slapped in the face, he dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak.

He's like that, not to mention the guys around him.

And at the same time, after giving the guy a slap in the face, the squadron leader also focused all his attention on the embassy.

"I didn't expect those damn Chinese to have so much heavy equipment, now it's troublesome..."

"Yes," the squad leader from not long ago stood next to him and echoed, at this time his body was very wolfy, and his shoulders were even wrapped in bandages. There was also faint blood stains on the bandage. "We're here to help the disaster and maintain order, and we didn't have any heavy equipment with us, and we only had rifles on hand. There is no way to take these Chinese at all, and it is really a loss to do it at this time..."

"yes..."

The reason why these Japanese people are suffering a lot now. One of the most important reasons is because they don't have enough 'heavy equipment'. After all, they came into the city to maintain order and provide disaster relief, except for a rifle. Basically, you don't need any other equipment.

However, after encountering such a situation, the rifle that seemed to be enough suddenly became a little insufficient. At least in the face of heavy machine guns, a simple rifle is indeed a bit unsightly.

"Sir, should we ask our superiors for support, otherwise, the casualties will be too great. Moreover, with the Chinese heavy machine gun network, I am afraid that we will not be able to rush into it at all with rifles alone. ”

"yes. We don't even have a grenade right now, and it's a bit of a hard thing to fight. Thinking so, the squadron leader said to the squad leader. You're Yamada-kun, right? First of all, I would like to ask you to go to the division garrison outside the city immediately and ask for reinforcements, whether it is in terms of troops or weapons. ”

"Don't you need to report back to the top?"

"Trust me...", patting Yamada on the shoulder, the squadron leader shook his head. If we did, they would definitely stop us..."

This squadron leader can be said to be very clear about this. Because he knew very well that they could be said to have no reason for this conflict, and he also knew very well how weak the government that was in control of the whole of Japan at the moment was.

If I really tell them about it, I'm afraid they will send someone to stop it as soon as possible.

So. If you want to keep fighting, you can't let the people above know about it.

In other words, this conflict. It can only be provoked by lower-ranking officers.

Hearing his words, the squad leader immediately understood what he meant. nodded, despite the wounds on his body. But after calling two subordinates, he walked briskly towards the outside of the city...

However, in the absence of transportation, when they would be able to get to the division headquarters outside the city, this is probably something that only their Amaterasu Okami knows.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In any case, in the absence of even a grenade, this kind of battle is still too difficult to fight. Although the Japanese launched countless attacks, they were all beaten back by Li Feng and them in the end.

On one occasion, the Japanese had even rushed to the embassy's position, but in the face of a line of submachine guns and shotguns, they did not seem to have done much but leave behind more corpses.

And because they left behind some corpses, those who had been unable to be mobilized in the embassy because they did not have enough weapons were finally given weapons.

Of course, the battle has definitely paid a considerable number of casualties so far.

But even so, Li Feng and the others still kept the Japanese out. Even Zhang Lixin himself squatted in the trench with a pistol―――――― there was no way, because they now needed to mobilize all the people who could get a gun.

Although the squadron leader, like everyone else who supported this conflict, did not want this conflict to be known to the higher-ups, at least until there was an outcome. And there is no doubt that the result of this battle can only be their victory, and even Li Feng knows this very well.

After all, they are at an absolute disadvantage in terms of troops, and although they now enjoy a certain firepower advantage with their equipment, this firepower advantage may not last long. As long as their ammunition is consumed, then they can only use their rifles as burning sticks―――――― no, it seems that they can also use bayonets?

At present, their only chance seems to be there, and that is for the Japanese government to intervene to stop it. In other words, letting their own government intervene to force the Japanese government to stop is their only hope, and the only reason why they have persisted until now.

However, although the Japanese officers did not want the armed conflict here to be known to their own government. But it's hard to hide this kind of thing, especially considering that the city was already very quiet, but suddenly there was a lot of gunfire.

The trouble is so great, if the Saionji Gongwang can't get any news, then he, the last patriarch of Japan, seems to be a bit wasted.

However, when the Saionji Gongwang summoned the Minister of War to his mansion to reprimand him, and asked him to stop the conflict immediately. Yoshiichi Tanaka, who had always been submissive, retorted.

"When something like this happens, and so many people have died, can normal conflicts end like this, such a result is not only unacceptable, but also unacceptable to the army!"

"And what do you want?!" Looking at the Minister of War who had just been propped up, the Xiyuan Temple Gongwang said angrily.

"The army must occupy the Chinese embassy, and we will not do anything to the civilians and Chinese expatriates there, but those murderers must be tried!" Although his expression was a little heavy, Tanaka Yoshiichi still said without hesitation.

How could Yoshiichi Tanaka not know the consequences of doing so, at least China would never give up.

If it had been at the beginning of the incident, Tanaka Yoshiichi would have absolutely supported Saionji Gongwang without hesitation, but now, his national sentiment made him unable to obey Saionji Gongwang's orders.

Not just Yoshiichi Tanaka, but the entire Army has the same position on this matter.

And looking at Tanaka Yoshiichi's determined appearance, Saionji Gongwang suddenly felt a burst of weakness while being annoyed, and after a long time, he almost groaned. "You will bring disaster to Japan..."

Almost when Yoshiichi Tanaka was talking to the Saionji Gongwang, Yan Shao, who was discussing with the cabinet about aiding Japan, suddenly bit the ice cube in his mouth!

"Send a telegram to Shenyang!" (To be continued......)
