Chapter Twenty-Six: Confrontation (Ask for Collection)

PS: The second update arrives, ask for collections, ask for recommendation votes to rush the list!!

Jiro Ono recognized it, and those steels were all high-quality cannon steel. So, without hesitation, he branded the Chinese workers as thieves and confiscated all the steel. With thousands of tons of cannon steel, the Japanese arsenal can completely produce hundreds of heavy artillery pieces. You know, at the moment, Japan's annual steel production is only 6,000 tons.

In addition, it is still low-quality steel, and the production of cannon steel for cannons also needs to be imported from abroad. This 1,000-ton cannon steel is undoubtedly very important for Japan's military industry.

Of course, Onodera Jiro also considered whether doing so would cause conflict. However, they had just won the Russo-Japanese War, and even the mighty woolly bears had to bow to them, which made almost all Japanese people have a lot of self-confidence. For the Chinese, it is even more neglected.

Onodera Jiro immediately sent someone to organize a train to transport all the steel to Dalian, and then transport it back to Japan via the Guò Sea. He believed that this would definitely make him appreciated by the military department. Perhaps, it is not impossible to promote him from captain to junior lieutenant in one fell swoop.

However, Onodera Jiro did not find out that he did not wipe out the Chinese workers who were taking care of the steel, and one worker escaped the catastrophe because he went to the toilet. When he returned, he happened to see the scene of these little devils snatching steel.

The workers hurriedly fled the train station and fled back to the arsenal to report. The battalion commander who guarded the instructor of the arsenal could not make up his mind and immediately sent someone to report to the division headquarters. And Wu Haoxuan happened to be teaching the tutor's division at the moment.

"What? Little Japan actually dares to directly grab our steel? It's a crime. Don't they know that this is our territory? Huzi, gather the division headquarters guard company, go to me, and grab all the steel back! Wu Haoxuan's stubborn temper was committed all of a sudden.

He had already planned to be a shrunken turtle, after all, Little Japan is now powerful. And their foundation has just been established, and they don't have the strength to fight hard with small Japan, so they have to declare war and temporarily retreat. A knife on the head of the word forbearance, compromise and concession, originally made him very angry. Now, Little Japan actually took the initiative to bully him, how could he accept it.

"Yes, young marshal!" Huzi immediately went to gather the troops. In addition to being Wu Haoxuan's personal guard, Huzi is also the company commander of the division headquarters guard company. However, usually Huzi follows Wu Haoxuan's side.

In a matter of minutes, the instructor's guard company was assembled. More than 200 soldiers, carrying all their equipment, gathered in the compound of the division headquarters. As the guard company of the division headquarters, these soldiers are almost the most elite units in the division.

"Go, target the train station, run forward!" Wu Haoxuan gave the order directly.

"Yes, young marshal! All of them, target train station, run forward! After Huzi gave the order, more than 200 people immediately rushed to the train station.

Just when Wu Haoxuan was about to turn over and get on his horse, James, the deputy division commander and Shi Tianchuan, the chief of staff of the division, who rushed to hear the news, intercepted him.

"Young marshal, the train station is the territory of the Japanese, so you can't mess around! In case you anger the Japanese, you're in big trouble! Shi Tianchuan was a little worried. He also knew that Wu Xingquan had only sent someone to report before, asking Wu Haoxuan not to provoke the Japanese.

"It's not that I'm looking for trouble, it's the Japanese who are taking the initiative to find trouble! Don't worry, I'm measured! After Wu Haoxuan finished speaking, he immediately rode a horse to catch up with the troops. If it's too late, maybe little Japan will transport that batch of steel away, and then it will make a big trouble.

"Alas! James, why don't you persuade the young marshal! Shi Tianchuan sighed.

James shrugged helplessly: "Haoxuan is that temper, and no one can change what he decides." However, this time it was the Japanese who were at fault first, and they actually dared to take the initiative to rob our steel, which is simply a banditry! ”

"However, this will cause disputes between the two countries. We are no match for the Japanese yet! Shi Tianchuan was a little anxious.

"Don't worry, Haoxuan won't be out of proportion, it shouldn't be too much. I'm going to check it out too! After James finished speaking, he also rushed to the train station with the guards.

"Well, what is this! Come on, call the division reconnaissance battalion and go to the train station right away! Shi Tianchuan stomped his foot, and then gave the order. After all, the Japanese had a squadron of more than 200 people at the Changchun Railway Station. In terms of troops, it is no less than the company brought by Wu Haoxuan. The gap in equipment is also not very large. And the combat power of the Japanese is obviously much stronger than that of the Jilin Army now. In case of a conflict in the fortress, the guard company brought by Wu Haoxuan will suffer a loss.

Now that the matter has come to this, Shi Tianchuan has no choice, he can only gather troops to rush to reinforcements. Even if there is any accident, Wu Haoxuan's safety must be guaranteed. Wu Haoxuan is a young marshal, the only son of a big handsome, and there must be no three longs and two shorts.

Soon, more than 1,000 officers and men of the division's reconnaissance battalion were also organized and marched in the direction of the railway station. Of course, Shi Tianchuan did not forget to send someone to report to Jilin when he led his troops to reinforcements. It is impossible to hide such a major event from Wu Xingquan. For a while, the situation became turbulent.

Changchun is just a small city with a population of 80,000. From the instructor's headquarters to the train station, it takes less than half an hour to run.

When Wu Haoxuan led the guard company to arrive at the railway station, the passengers who came in and out of the railway station saw a large number of troops killing violently, and they all subconsciously avoided it. Everyone talked about it, and they thought that there would be another war.

"Rush in and rescue our workers. If the Japanese dare to stop them, they will scatter them. The machine gunners took advantage of the position, and if the Japanese dared to shoot, they immediately returned fire! Wu Haoxuan gritted his teeth and ordered.

"Yes, young marshal! Guard Company, follow me. Huzi immediately led the soldiers of the guard company and rushed into the train station.

A large group of fierce soldiers rushed into the train station, all carrying rifles with bright bayonets in their hands, and even soldiers carrying heavy machine guns and other weapons, which immediately made the train station angry and panicked. Countless passengers hurriedly exited the train station, for fear that they would be affected.

The soldiers of the guard company knew very well where the freight train was unloaded. Every time a shipment of weapons and equipment arrives from the United States, they have to protect it. So, a group of people rushed straight towards that area.

At this moment, Onodera Jiro has returned to his office, he has sent someone to organize the train, and by tonight at the latest, the steel will be transported. Now near the batch of steel, there is only a dozen or so soldiers of the rifle group there.

The sudden appearance of the Chinese* army was a great shock to these Japanese.

"Baga, who are you? What do you want to do? A little devil soldier Cao rushed up menacingly.

However, then he was pointed at the chest by more than a dozen rifles, and the black muzzle and the bright bayonet made his momentum suffocated.

"Humph! Little devil, you're fat enough! Dare to rob our steel, live impatiently. Get rid of all these little devils and get our workers out. Huzi ordered directly.

"Yaga, stop, you filthy Shina people, this is the steel of the Imperial Army of Japan!" Devil Scout Cao roared loudly. The dozen or so soldiers under him also raised their rifles in their hands.

However, they were facing more than 200 people, which made those devil soldiers rush to fear from the depths of their hearts. Even though they raised their rifles, no one dared to make the next move. Otherwise, once they shoot, it will inevitably lead to a sharp counterattack by the Chinese * army that suddenly appeared. The consequences will be very severe.

Especially after seeing that the Chinese* army actually set up heavy machine guns and mortars, those devil soldiers almost fainted. Just to deal with the dozen or so of them, is it necessary to make such a big battle?

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the soldiers of the guard company had already driven the little devil soldiers out, and at the same time, the captured workers were also rescued. The workers had scars on their bodies from being beaten by the little devil soldiers. But when the soldiers of the guard company rescued them, everyone's faces were filled with happiness and hope.

In this era, human life is very worthless. In particular, the lives of Chinese people are like grass mustard. When the Russo-Japanese War was going on, no one ever cared about their lives. However, now those high-ranking military men have come to rescue them, which makes them have a different feeling about these soldiers.

Although those devil soldiers shouted very loudly, no one dared to act rashly, and could only watch as the batch of steel was snatched back by the soldiers of the guard company.

The guard company began to lay out the line around the steel, and a heavy machine gun was erected directly on the steel. Several other heavy machine guns, as well as light machine guns, seized the commanding heights in the vicinity. Even, not far from here, several mortars are still erected there.

At this time, Onodera Jiro, who was still sitting in the office and dreaming, also got the news and immediately rushed out violently.

"Yaga, who are you, you actually dare to attack the defense area of the Imperial Japanese Army, are you trying to provoke a war between the two countries?" Onodera Jiro roared loudly. Onodera Jiro understands Chinese, so he speaks Chinese directly.

"Humph! You were the ones who snatched our steel first. He also injured our workers, what a boldness! Wu Haoxuan also walked in at this time, and happened to hear Onodera Jiro's arrogant words, and immediately refuted.
