Chapter 171: First Impressions of Success
"Lang Yuntou. are here! Shen Gen'er said to Ouyang Yun very respectfully. Then he stabbed Kuroda and said to Ouyang Yunnunu: "This is Lang Yuntou, why don't you hurry up and salute?" β
Kuroda was stunned for a moment, then respectfully stepped forward and bowed deeply, raised his head and looked at Ouyang Yun respectfully, he said: "Dear Lang Yuntouren, in Shimokuroda Seiichiro, head of the 20th Wing Affairs Department of the Osaka Fourth Division of the Imperial Japanese Army, it is a pleasure to meet you, and please take care of me." β
Kuroda was extremely vain, and Tamura only verbally gave him a guarantee, and he actually pressed the chicken feather as an arrow directly on himself. Perhaps, he felt that having such an identity would be more conducive to facilitating this meeting.
Ouyang Yun nodded coldly at him, and said in stiff Chinese: "Han friend Shen Gen'er said that your chief has something important to discuss with me, how many people over there are?" As he spoke, his gaze swept to Tamura and the others not far away.
"Exactly. Your Excellency, I'm going to introduce you hereβ" After Kuroda finished speaking, he turned to Tamura and shouted, "Your Excellency, Lord Lang Yuntou is invited. β
Tamura was already waiting a little impatiently. The head of a barbarian is just a barbarian, and he actually puts on such a big score, which makes him feel unhappy in a high position. Of course, the overall situation is important, and he can still do it with a little humiliation.
They walked over with Shi Shiran, and then under the recommendation of Kuroda and Shen Gen'er, they nodded and saluted Ouyang Yun and the others. Tamura, who played the captain of Hattori, had already entered the role, and he was very dedicated and maintained a humble demeanor, greeting the "Lang Yuntou people" politely, while carefully looking at these Li men.
Although Bian Jingdao and others all dressed up as Li men, the fierce spirit on their bodies could not be concealed. People who have experienced the test of blood and fire have a unique temperament on their bodies, as for Ouyang Yun, who has been in the top position for a long time, he also shows the majesty of the "head man" in his gestures. This made Tamura put away his contempt, and he vaguely felt that he had come to the right place this time. After looking at it for a while, he found that these people actually had a pair of suede shoes on their feet, and several of them even had military kettles of the unified system of the Imperial Military Department hanging on their waists, and they were dressed in a nondescript manner.
As a high-ranking official at the level of wing commander, Tamura has access to some information describing the customs of Hainan Island, so he has his own set of cognition of the Li and Miao people. After observing for a while, he believed Kuroda's description, which was indeed the head of the local Li tribe. After confirming the identity of the other party, Tamura felt the need to show sincerity, so he waved his hand and asked his subordinates to hold a gift box, he personally took it and held it to Ouyang Yun with both hands and said: "Touren, the first time we meet is not a respect, this Japanese long knife, please accept it!" After speaking, he bowed slightly.
"Japanese long knives?" Ouyang Yun took it with "interest", and said in his heart that this Hattori was worthy of being a captain of the merchant division group, and he really had a set of business experience, and he actually knew that he would give a meeting gift to attract feelings. opened the gift box, inside was a beautifully decorated long knife, picked up the scabbard and pulled out the long knife, he pretended to be very knowledgeable and looked at it, and praised: "Good knife!" Then he showed a "greedy" expression.
Tamura saw his expression in his eyes, secretly happy in his heart, and said: "Lang Yuntouren, our army is coming to Hainan this time, and we want to trouble you and your people." If there is any offense, please forgive me. β
Ouyang Yun's gaze reluctantly left the long knife, as if he had just remembered, he suddenly widened his eyes and said angrily: "Captain Hattori, I forgot if you didn't say this." I didn't believe it at first when a Han Chinese told me that you were going to take our land and slaughter us, but how do you explain that you actually threw a deadly iron lump at us with that iron bird? As he spoke, his right hand tightened the handle of the knife, and there was a tendency to kill if he didn't agree with him. Bian Jingdao and the others also raised their eyebrows one by one, and many of them had hatred in their eyes, which made Tamura believe that they must have family members or relatives who died in the bombing of the Combined Fleet Air Force.
Tamura had done a great deal of work to prepare for the meeting, but now it seems that he had forgotten a crucial point. Thinking of the short guns that everyone he carried, and the distance between the two sides was so close, sweat oozed from his forehead, and he secretly scolded: "Damn, I actually forgot this stubble!" β
"Lang Yuntouren, misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" At a critical moment, Kuroda hurriedly jumped out and started a round. He said, "Those iron birds are not sent by us, they are part of the navy. Lang Yuntouren, you may not understand what I said, but please believe that we have absolutely no malice in coming to you. You should be impressed, all of us here this time, have anyone shot at your people? Lang Yuntou people, I am not afraid to let you know that our family is ugly. We who belong to the army, and we who claim to be authentic soldiers can't get used to those guys in the navy. As a soldier, how can you attack civilian facilities and civilians without principle......"
Kuroda was worthy of being the No. 1 profiteer of the Tamura Wing, and he preached incessantly, during which Chinese was mixed with Japanese, and he said that the navy and the combined fleet, including Yamamoto Isoroku, were worthless, and described the Osaka Division as one of the few righteous divisions in the world, as if they had not appeared in Hainan to fight a war of aggression, but as if they had come to provide disaster relief.
"Grandma's, the black devil is too good at fooling," on the way back after the meeting, remembering this paragraph, Ouyang Yun said to Bian Jingdao and the others.
Ouyang Yun's face was cloudy and uncertain, with a suspicious expression.
Seeing this, Tamura, who was sweating in shock, quickly took Kuroda's words and said, "Lang Yuntou, I express my deep sympathy for what happened to you and your people, but this is war. But don't worry, our Osaka Division and the United Fleet are different, although we are all Japanese and soldiers, but we know what an upright soldier can do and what he can't do. Well, as Kuroda said, we never thought of taking human life and plundering property in the name of war......"
Tamura's Chinese is much better than Kuroda's, and he speaks it much more fluently.
The two devils talked endlessly for a quarter of an hour or so. And after listening to their words, the faces of Ouyang Yun, Bian Jingdao and the others finally softened. Shen Gen'er interjected at the right time, and he said: "Lang Yuntou, as far as I have seen and heard in the past few days, what Captain Hattori and the said are the truth. The first time I made a deal with a, he could have robbed him, but he chose a fair trade. I think they are different from the Japanese people at sea, and they deserve your trust. β
Ouyang Yun looked at Tamura and Kuroda deeply for a while, and the right hand holding the handle of the knife finally relaxed, and he said: "I will believe you for the time being, I just hope that you will not be as untrustworthy as those Han people, otherwise, our 300,000 Li people in Changjiang will definitely not give up with you." β
Tamura was first shocked when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed by the figure of "300,000", and then he was overjoyed that he keenly grasped the meaning of the phrase "like a Han man who is untrustworthy in his words", which made him more confident in reaching the relevant agreement.
