Chapter 454: Control the situation, control the people
By the time Dongfang Bufu arrived at his 1st Regiment, the 1st Regiment had basically locked on to the Japanese army's hiding place and was making preparations for the attack.
They plan to wipe out these rat-like Japanese troops in one fell swoop.
And just as the 1st Regiment was preparing to attack the Japanese army, the regiments of the 7th Army Corps responsible for searching in other directions also came to report that they had also locked on the Japanese army and were also preparing to attack the Japanese army.
Good news, really good news, it's really good, when Dongfang Bufu heard these good news, not only did his heart bloom, but he also smiled from ear to ear.
His Seventh Legion has been tossed enough by this little devil since he fought against this part of the Japanese remnants, and it is definitely a fire in the belly for the Seventh Legion that Dongfang is not confused with him, and now, they can finally get a little interest back from these extremely nasty Japanese, how can they not be happy.
Come out and mix, sooner or later you will have to pay it back, Dongfang is not confused and is convinced of this.
With the completion of the attack and deployment of the various units of the Seventh Army, the battle to clear the remnants of the Japanese army began.
The Seventh Army was a whole corps, and the Japanese army was some remnants after the main force withdrew, so the Seventh Army did not take much effort, the battle was over, and the final result was also clear, the Taiping army was victorious, and the Japanese army was wiped out.
When the Seventh Army was cleaning up the battlefield, it found some clues from the traces on the scene, and these evidences can prove that this part of the remnants of the Japanese army belonged to the army under the command of Takasugi Shinsaku.
According to this logic, the commander of the Japanese army who commanded the remnants of these Japanese troops was not Takasugi Shinsaku, but should be Togi Takayo, and for Dongfang Bufu, Togi Takayo can be regarded as an old friend, if it is really Togi Takayo who led the army to fight with him this time, Dongfang Bufu can guarantee that he will abuse Togi Takayo again.
However, in the end, the Japanese commander turned out to be not the opponent Togi Takayoshi expected in the eyes of Dongfang Bufu, but Takasugi Shinsaku.
And after confirming that the commander of the Japanese army was Takasugi Shinsaku, Dongfang Bufu couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but soon, he was relieved, because, it's not bad to be able to meet Takasugi Shinsaku, that's better than not meeting people, anyway, he blocked one, no matter what, Takasugi Shinsaku is also the commander of the Japanese army, in terms of status, he is still above Togi Takayo, and when he meets him, Dongfang is not confused and should be satisfied.
So, how did Dongfang Bufu come across Takasugi Shinsaku?
At first, no one in the first regiment knew that the person with a broken hand was Takasugi Shinsaku, one of the three commanders of the Japanese army, thinking that he was an old cripple, if it weren't for the general uniform on his body, the first regiment might have thrown him into the ditch to feed the fish.
However, this thing is a coincidence, not long after the first regiment took Takasugi Jinsaku, Dongfang Bufu heard that a general was captured alive, so he rushed to see who this Wang Ba was, but, I don't know if I don't know, I was startled when I saw it, it turned out that this Wang Ba turned out to be an old old Wang Ba, hey, I caught a little effect.
Actually, when Dongfang Bufu saw Takasugi Shinsaku who was caught for the first time, he really didn't recognize it, but he just felt that this person was a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember anything, and later, he thought about it hard, and then he remembered that this half-dead guy was the commander of the Japanese army, Takasugi Shinsaku.
At that time, Takasugi Shinsaku was lying on a stretcher, fainting like a dead fish, and he had already fainted when the first group caught him. This guy was originally injured a lot, and then he commanded the Japanese army to fight the Seventh Army for so long, it was already good to be able to leave this life.
And it's a little ridiculous to say, if it weren't for the fact that Takasugi Jinsaku was wearing a general's uniform, maybe the Taiping Army wouldn't have left him so easily, and maybe he had already thrown him away to feed the fish, but why didn't this Takasugi Jinsaku wear some other low-key clothes, but he wanted to make it so high-profile that he deserved to be caught.
It turns out that this has to start with some habits of the Japanese, the Japanese regard their identity very seriously, every officer of the Japanese army, no matter where they go, they like to wear military uniforms that represent the status of the army, especially high-ranking officers in the Japanese army like Takasugi Shinsaku, who take this matter very seriously, and he would rather die than take off the general's uniform on his body.
And it was precisely this general's uniform that made Takasugi Jinsaku a prisoner of the Taiping Army.
Of course, since Takasugi Shinsaku is already here, there are some things that can be explained.
Takasugi Shinsaku was in charge of the aftermath at the behest of Hirobumi Ito, and after the main Japanese army retreated, he led the 9th Division's left-behind army of about 10,000 people to begin a battle with the Taiping army in Kaesong.
And Takasugi Jinsaku was after having a face-to-face one-to-one conversation with Ito Hirobumi, so he decided to stay and break the queen, in fact, before that, he didn't think about breaking the queen, and he didn't expect Ito Hirobumi to let him break the queen, because, let a disabled person break the queen, it would be tantamount to letting him die, and Takasugi Jinsaku didn't think about death, although he broke one hand, but he also had another hand, in addition to the broken hand, his other qiē was still there, he also thought about taking care of his body, and then looking for revenge from the Taiping army.
Although he knew, Ito Hirobumi's words wiped out all the intentions in his heart, and Ito Hirobumi was in front of him. didn't beat around the bush, just put it up directly, and asked him to break it.
Takasugi Shinsaku was very uncomfortable after listening to Ito Hirobumi's decision, he didn't agree to Ito Hirobumi immediately, and even had a trace of resentment towards Ito Hirobumi in his heart, he felt that this kind of thing, who to pick is not good, why to pick him, he really can't figure it out.
In fact, verbally, Ito Hirobumi did not force him, but just asked him to think about it, and then, he carefully analyzed the situation they are facing now, and finally, said with sincerity that no matter what decision he made, Ito Hirobumi would not blame him.
What Ito Hirobumi has taken is completely an emotional offensive, which can really be described as knowing with affection. moved to reason, and by the way, he also picked out the collective sense of honor of the soldiers, he knew too well the thoughts of Takasugi Jinsaku these soldiers.
Just imagine, Ito Hirobumi's words have been said to this part, and Takasugi Shinsaku can't help but disagree, which is the genius of Ito Hirobumi.
So, helplessly, Takasugi Jinsaku could only agree, and besides, in front of others, he could only say that he took the initiative to agree, and no one forced him.
And Takasugi Shinsaku agreed, Ito Hirobumi was of course happy, he vigorously praised Takasugi Shinsaku as a hero of the Japanese Empire, a loyal warrior of His Majesty the Emperor, Ito Hirobumi also promised that he would make all the subjects of Japan grateful for his contribution to the Japanese Empire.
For this meaningless empty talk, Takasugi Shinsaku can only reluctantly accept it, but whether he accepts it from the bottom of his heart, it is difficult to say.
In short, after deciding to stay and break the queen, Takasugi Shinsaku has made up his mind to die, because, this is a road of no return, as long as he is a person who understands, then he will understand if you think about it, with Takasugi Shinsaku's state at this time, and the 10,000 people he led, if he wants to retreat with his whole body, it is tantamount to a fool's dream, so Takasugi Shinsaku can only plan for the worst and be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor.
And even to die. Then you have to use all your strength before you die. First of all, when the Taiping army attacked the city, he would do his best to maneuver with the Taiping army in the city gate tower, so as to create an illusion, so that the Taiping army could not figure out the real situation of the Japanese army in the city, thinking that the main force of the Japanese army was still there, so as to attract the attention of the Taiping army, so that the Taiping army did not dare to act at will.
Then, he set up a number of ambushes in the city, using the method of urban guerrilla warfare to confuse the Taiping army, so that the Taiping army lost the opportunity to go out of the city to pursue the main force of the Japanese army in hesitation.
Takasugi Jinsaku believed that as long as his two steps were used properly, he would be able to hold back the main force of the Taiping army, so that the main force of the Japanese army could safely withdraw to Seoul, but he and his 10,000 soldiers would have to bury their bones here.
And what happened after that was all done according to Takasugi Jinsaku's assumption, the Taiping army really fell for him, and was confused by his urban guerrilla warfare, if it weren't for the fact that he led too few Japanese troops, maybe he wouldn't have shown his feet so quickly, so that Dongfang Bufu could see the flaws.
In this sense, Takasugi Shinsaku's method worked, and he completed the task of breaking off smoothly.
And just after the position of him and the part of the Japanese army he led was locked by the first regiment of the Seventh Army of the Taiping Army, Takasugi Jinsaku could no longer support it and fainted, and he didn't know anything after that.
When he woke up, he was already a prisoner of the Taiping Army.
"General Takasugi, don't come here unharmed, right?" Takasugi Jinsaku woke up and saw Dongfang Bufu standing in front of him at the first glance, of course, this is also Dongfang Bufufu.
"Who are you? Do we know each other?' Takasugi said in a hoarse voice.
He really doesn't know Dongfang Bufu, and the last time Dongfang Bufu fought with Togi Takayoun, Takasugi Shinsaku was not present, so it's not surprising that he didn't know Dongfang Bufu.
"Once born, second ripe, let's talk a few words, then don't we know each other?" Dongfang is not confused and grinned.
It can be seen that Dongfang is really happy not to be confused.
Can you not be happy? A Japanese with an identity like Takasugi Shinsaku, that's not to say that you can be captured alive, but Dongfang is not confused but captured it alive, although it is a cripple, but that identity is still there, so I have to be happy.
"Who are you?" Takasugi Shinsaku didn't pay attention to Dongfang Bufu, and still asked in a deep voice.
"Since you want to know so much, then sue you, your grandfather I am the deputy marshal of the Taiping Army to resist Japan and aid Korea and the acting commander of the Seventh Army, Dongfang is not confused, now, you should know who you are planting in." The East is not confused and triumphant.
It's really nice to be able to play a little bit of prestige in front of this little Japan.
"The Taipings? What about me?" Although he had been mentally prepared, but after hearing Dongfang Bufu say it in person, Takasugi Jinsaku still couldn't accept that he was captured.
It's really not as good as dying, but even if he wants to die now, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.
"Yes, you're my captive." Dongfang is not confused.
"Kill me!" Takasugi said coldly.
"Hmph, if you think about beauty, how can there be such a good thing." Dongfang Bufu snorted lightly and said metaphorically.
Takasugi Jinsaku also knew in his heart that this was impossible, so he simply closed his eyes and stopped paying attention to Dongfang Bufu.
Dongfang didn't confuse Takasugi Jinsaku and pretended to be dead again, and scolded him on the side, but no matter how he scolded, Takasugi Jinsaku just didn't listen to it, ignored it and didn't pay attention, so that Dongfang didn't confuse one person to star in this one-man show.
At the end of the play, Dongfang didn't confuse himself and scolded him first, so he could only let people take Takasugi Jinsaku down first, take care of it, and wait for Tian Xiaoer to come back before he was sent again.
And just when he wanted to send someone to inquire about Tian Xiaoer's movements, he didn't expect Tian Xiaoer to really come back, but Tian Xiaoer came back empty-handed. (To be continued.)
