Chapter 2171: A Completely Different Attitude
Lieutenant General Haruhiko, who originally wanted to take a step back and calm down the people, saw that Lieutenant General Kikuchi was so ignorant of advance and retreat, and he didn't say anything, and he was aggressive, so he even let himself apologize to him in person, and he also had to admit that he deliberately violated the order of the dispatch army headquarters and deliberately robbed the credit of the First Army, how could he bear it, why not say that his First Army was slow and delayed the fighter plane, and he was just taking advantage of the situation!
Lieutenant General Haruhiko was white and thin, and there was a flush on his face, which seemed to be angry, but his eyes became more and more cold, and his right hand slowly touched the handle of the command knife on his waist, since he was shameless to give his face, then give this bastard who doesn't know how to advance or retreat, and doesn't know what to do, just teach a lesson, don't think that if you move the knife, I, Chunyan, am still afraid of you?
And Prince Zaihito, who was at the door, after listening to Lieutenant General Kikuchi's words, raised his eyebrows lightly, as if he had an understanding, and asked the commander of the Far East Dispatch Army next to him, General Ono Norigoro, "Ono-kun, that rather elegant lieutenant general, is the commander of the Third Army, Taiichi Haruhiko?" ”
General Ono hurriedly replied in a low voice: "Yes, Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, it is Lieutenant General Taiichi Haruhhiko, the commander of the Third Army under the command, who defeated the commander of the battle on the east bank of the Aldan River of the 15th Army of the Soviet Army!" ”
"Yo Xi! - It's really good, he knows how to forbear, and he knows when to break out, and he is a general! Prince Zaihito exclaimed in a low voice, he could see that at first, Lieutenant General Haruhiko didn't want to make a big deal about it, but that Lieutenant General Kikuchi did not give up, which completely angered Haruhiko, from Lieutenant General Haruhiko's technique of touching the hilt of the sword, Prince Zaihito, who is also a kendo master, can see at a glance that Haruhiko's kendo cultivation is quite deep, and that Kikuchi is not an opponent.
Of course, Prince Zaihito would never want to see two lieutenant generals of the Imperial Japanese Army. Because of this, blood was splashed on the spot, and just when the scene was tense and suffocating, Prince Zairen stepped forward a few steps, separated the other generals who were watching, the cold light in his eyes flashed, and he shouted, "Enough!" ”
At this sound, there was not much movement, but it was quiet in the conference room. But it was very abrupt, and with boundless coercion and momentum, the Japanese generals turned their heads and couldn't help but shrink their necks, "My good man." It's His Royal Highness the Prince, it's over. - That's it. Such a tense scene fell in the eyes of His Royal Highness the Prince, and the two people on the field were unlucky! "I'm not sure, I have to follow the food and hang the brand, and make a blame that doesn't calm the scene!
Lieutenant General Kikuchi and Lieutenant General Haruhiko. It was as if he had been struck by lightning, his face turned pale in an instant, his eyes were full of panic, and he put away his sword at a loss. "Smack!" "Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, please punish you for being rude!" ”
It's funny to say, the two people who don't deal with each sentence, but this sentence is surprisingly the same, Prince Zairen has no words, just a sharp gaze, on the two lieutenant generals with stiff expressions and standing straight, scanning back and forth, looking at Kikuchi and Haruhiko, their hearts are drumming, their legs tremble slightly, and beads of sweat are oozing from their heads!
What kind of person is this in front of him, the imperial brother of His Majesty the Emperor, the chief of the general staff of the base camp, the commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Campaign, and the well-deserved number one boss in the imperial military circles, just don't say a word, that kind of natural coercion is enough to make the famous generals panic in their hearts and tremble in their legs, besides, His Royal Highness the Prince has always been known for his ruthlessness.
The several military generals who followed Prince Zaihito also had different expressions, and the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, General Minamijiro, had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and he couldn't tell whether he was mocking or appreciating the bravery or ignorance of the two lieutenant generals who used their knives on the spot?
General Tanaka Shinichi, the commander of the Korean garrison, is indifferent, not his own subordinates are embarrassed, they are concerned about their own affairs, the newly formed second-rate troops, sure enough, discipline is lax, General Ono Norigoro is not strict in governing the army, the two dignified lieutenant generals of the Imperial Army, entering such rude and Meng Lang, making a big fuss at the venue of the military conference, and resting in their own troops, have long let them get out of the way and transfer to the reserve to be refrigerated!
Lieutenant General Ryuaki Shinno, chief of staff of the General Headquarters of the Far East Campaign, was annoyed, with a pair of eyes, staring at the two pale-faced lieutenant generals with a fierce face, and he couldn't wait to go up to a few big mouths, "These two blind guys, who were originally very strict in the military meeting, made such a ridiculous thing with their own ingenious arrangements?" Speaking of which, I can't get rid of it! He thought to himself, gritting his teeth.
And Major General Yamada, head of the General Staff Headquarters of the Far East Campaign Headquarters, has a cold face, and in his shining eyes, he can't see any changes in his feelings, among several people, his military rank is the lowest, and this is the affairs of the meeting that the guy in Xinno is in charge of, no matter what goes wrong, it has nothing to do with him, at this time, not talking is the best way.
The most embarrassing thing is that the commander of the Far East Dispatch Army, General Ono Nouro, made a joke about the two army commanders under his own subordinates, playing monkey play, making hundreds of generals of the other two armies see the jokes, yes, this time the Far East Dispatch Army is famous, and what is even more strict is that His Royal Highness the Prince also witnessed the whole thing, these two bastards, didn't they slap themselves in the face on the spot?
Thinking of this, General Norigoro Ono was angry, and a fierce light appeared in his eyes, "Yaga! He scolded angrily, took a step forward suddenly, rounded his arms, and looked at the faces of Lieutenant General Haruhiko and Lieutenant General Kikuchi, "Papapa" was a few big mouths, and they hit this ruthlessly, and the cheeks of the two were like blowing, swollen, and the purple red handprints were clearly printed on the face.
The corners of the mouths of the two of them, a wisp of blood appeared, but no one dared to move, let alone hide, like a wooden stake, hard next to each other, the Imperial Army of Japan, this is the rule, the boss knocked down the mouth of the superior, that is a matter of course, don't look at the two are lieutenant generals and commanders, they have to endure this kind of treatment, the beaters are at ease, the beaten people deserve it, and they have to shout "Hayi!" in their mouths! - Hayi! "I am very grateful to Dade, that is, the chief is not just anyone's mouth!
General Ono Norigoro, after the fight, his anger has not subsided, he was just about to open his mouth to scold a few more words, a piece of Prince Zaihito, waved his hand, General Ono shut up at that time, this is not to send troops in his Far East, the biggest master, is His Royal Highness the Prince, the fate of the two subordinates, he can't decide!
The corners of Prince Zairen's mouth moved, and a trace of an inexplicable smile appeared on his slightly pale face, and he first looked at Lieutenant General Haruhiko, his eyes flashed, and said, "You are Lieutenant General Haruhiko Taiichi, the commander of the Third Army!" ”
Lieutenant General Haruhiko was sweating profusely, and His Royal Highness the Prince was the first to find him, and he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse, so he didn't dare to wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth, raised his head with his chest up, and replied loudly: "Yes, Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, it is a humble position!" ”
Prince Zairen smiled and said approvingly, "Hmm! Not bad -- the Third Army fought very well in a battle on the east bank of the Aldan River, and it was very good that the vast majority of its soldiers were new recruits, judged the hour and sized up the situation, did not stick to the established campaign plan, and adopted the tactics of taking the initiative to attack! ”
Unexpectedly, no one thought that as soon as Prince Zairen opened his mouth, he would say these words, which is to punish the troublesome officers, it is clearly to praise Haruhiko in public, affirm the record, praise the style of play, for a while, the eyes of all the Japanese officers became complicated, and they secretly envied, "Haruhiko, this guy is really shit luck, he actually appeared in front of His Royal Highness the Prince in this way, and he can't be reused!" ”
When Prince Zaihito praised Lieutenant General Haruhiko, Lieutenant General Kikuchi on the side, his face turned from pale to sallow, and a wave of fear hit his heart, "His Royal Highness is sure that Haruhiko, a bastard, is playing style, that is, his various accusations are unreasonable?" "I'm not convinced, I'm absolutely not convinced!
A wave of resentment rushed straight to the head of Lieutenant General Kikuchi, almost making him lose his mind, staring at his blood-red eyes, just about to plead loudly, Prince Zaihito's gaze had already moved to himself, and when the words came to his mouth, he forcibly returned to his stomach, and His Royal Highness's eyes were so cold that he shivered, and the courage in his stomach turned into drops of cold sweat on his backbone.
"Are you Lieutenant General Mitsuo Kikuchi, commander of the First Army of the Far Eastern Dispatch Army?" Prince Jaehito asked indifferently, with no joy or sorrow on his face.
Lieutenant General Kikuchi straightened his body like a jar on the ground, and replied with a roar that surpassed Lieutenant General Haruhiko's voice: "Yes! Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, the lowly position is none other than Mio Kikuchi, Commander-in-Chief, the lowly position has something to say! ”
Lieutenant General Kikuchi is also out of the way, but there is such a brute force, he knows very well that this is the only chance, if this matter is not torn up in front of the person, there will be no such opportunity in the future, His Royal Highness praised Haruhiko's guy, it means that he is vexatious, then on such an important occasion, the crime of picking quarrels and provoking troubles and fighting against colleagues can ruin his future in the Imperial Army.
Prince Zairen frowned slightly, his gaze changed from plain and unwavering, to fierce and ruthless, and there was a trace of disgust, glanced at Lieutenant General Kikuchi, waved his hand suddenly, interrupted his words, and turned his face to the commander of the Far East Dispatch Army, General Ono Norigoro, and said: "Ono-kun, the candidate for the commander of the First Army of the Far East Dispatch Army should be reconsidered, how can I rest assured that the Imperial Army troops are in the hands of such a person?" ”
When Lieutenant General Kikuchi heard this, his head "buzzed", he stumbled under his feet, and almost fainted, covered in blood, "Whew!" A word from His Royal Highness the Prince, his splendid future in the Imperial Army, was immediately over, how could this be?
"I'm not convinced! - Defend yourself! Lieutenant General Kikuchi shouted in despair in his heart, a kind of unwillingness to be wronged, with a desperate hysteria, instantly shattered his reason, and shouted regardless of it: "Your Royal Highness, you are unfair, and you have something to say about your humble position!" ”
