In Cangnan County, under the command of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army, Junhisa Ikeda stood respectfully and reported to Tani Toshio, saying that he had fulfilled the instructions of His Excellency the division commander and had gathered the people of Cangnan County, and that he would be escorted to the front line at the first order.

Gu Shoufu helped his glasses and smiled: "Very good!" Then he asked, "What about Zhao Kuan?" What he said. ”

Ikeda lowered his head and said, "Zhao Kuan said that he didn't receive orders from His Excellency Matsui, so he can't-"

"Bage, the current front-line commander is me, and everything is up to me! Ikeda, go, you take me! ”

"Hello!"

Zhao Kuan was the commander of the puppet Ningbo Security Brigade who attacked Fuding with the Japanese army this time. When Gu Shoufu rushed to the station of the puppet security brigade in a menacing manner, he was told by Zhao Kuan's subordinates that the commander had gone to the 9th Division and was not in the battalion. Gu Shoufu glanced at the camp of the puppet security brigade with a gloomy face, and found that this puppet army camped that he had always looked down on was actually quite magnanimous, the corners of his mouth were cold, and he said to Ikeda and the others: "Then let's go to the 9th Division!" ”

In the headquarters of the 9th Division, Zhao Kuan was asking Okuichiro to come forward and persuade Gu Shoufu not to implicate the people in the Cangnan area. He said to Okuichiro sincerely: "Your Excellency, the Imperial Army is stationed in China for the purpose of the common prosperity of Greater East Asia, and we wholeheartedly support this. Well, the people of the occupied areas are actually the people of His Majesty the Emperor. His Excellency Gu Shoufu now wants to hijack the people of Cangnan to launch an offensive against Fuding, which is contrary to the original intention of the imperial army. Your Excellency, the people are innocent, and please come forward to say something, so that His Excellency Gu Shoufu can cancel this decision. ”

Speaking from the bottom of his heart, Okuichiro looked down on Tani Shofu's tactics and thought that it was a cowardly act that damaged the prestige of the imperial army. It's just that he also knows that after last night's First World War, Gu Shoufu has been stimulated crazy, and just now, the aviation unit of the Combined Fleet has lost the opportunity to turn the tables. In this way, don't even think about breaking Fuding without taking extraordinary measures.

Whether it is for people or in the style of commanding the army, Okuichiro and Tani Toshio are two types of people. Take the attitude towards Zhao Kuan and other puppet army officers as an example, Gu Shoufu has always maintained a lofty posture, and often scolded Zhao Kuan and others, completely with the face of a master; And although Okuichiro was very disdainful of Zhao Kuan and others in his heart, he at least behaved very kindly on the surface, which was why Zhao Kuan would take the initiative to intercede with him. As for Zhao Kuanwei's nervousness, on the one hand, it is because his conscience is not clear, but on the other hand, he is aware and afraid of the policy of the student army towards traitors, and it is also related to the trend of the war situation. The Japanese army gathered more than 500,000 troops to besiege the Xuebing Army, and Zhao Kuan originally thought that the Xuebing Army would definitely be in a catastrophe this time. However, with the development of the war situation, first the 11th Army was annihilated, then the 5th Army suffered heavy losses on the Shangying Battlefield, and the South China Front failed to attack Fuding - overnight, the Xuebing Army achieved great victories on both fronts, destroying more than 30,000 enemies; This morning, he destroyed more than 100 Japanese planes in one fell swoop, and he was not stupid, and he immediately realized that the outcome of this battle was unpredictable, and it might be the student army that won in the end.

Thinking about it this way, he had to think about the way back. It happened that Junhisa Ikeda, who discovered that the 6th Division was actually capturing local people all over the city, he was keenly aware of the intention behind Tani Toshio, and after thinking about it again, he not only refused the order of Tani Toshio, which was passed down by Ikeda, but also had the courage to come to Okuichiro to talk to him, hoping that he could come forward to persuade Tani Toshio not to do such a radical thing.

Okuichiro is very ghostly, on the surface he agreed to Zhao Kuan's request, but in his heart he was not ready to meddle in this matter. He thinks that he will not use such a method, but he also knows that in the current situation, he cannot break the deadlock. He was swearing to Zhao Kuan that he was going to go to Gu Shoufu and ask him to cancel this order, when a subordinate came in and reported that His Excellency Gu Shoufu had arrived. He stood up and said to Zhao Kuan with a smile: "Zhao Sang, Cao Cao Cao will arrive, go, go with me to meet the head of Gu Shoushi!" ”

Zhao Kuan knew that Gu Shoufu was coming to find him, and he was a little frightened, he gritted his teeth and stood up to follow Okuichiro out of the city, walked out of the headquarters of the 9th Division, and happened to have a face-to-face with Gu Shoufu.

Gu Shoufu nodded at Okuichiro first, then locked his eyes firmly on Zhao Kuan, and said with a smile: "Brigade Commander Zhao is such a big shelf, Ikeda, please don't move you, and you want me to come to you in person?!" ”

His attitude made Zhao Kuan only feel that his scalp was numb, and his originally ruthless momentum was short. He looked at Okuichiro, hoping that he would be able to intercede, but when he saw the latter smiling and looking like he had nothing to do with it, he secretly said in his heart: Malegobi, old fox! With a smile on his face, he said to Gu Shoufu: "Your Excellency misunderstood, I didn't receive an order from Your Excellency Matsui, so I didn't dare to leave my post without permission!" ”

Matsui Shigen's order to Zhao Kuan was to let him lead the puppet security brigade to suppress the place, and his explanation was reasonable. However, he just gave Gu Shoufu the truth, only to hear the old devil say aggressively: "Do you also know that Lu Dao must be loyal to his duties? Hmph, Cangnan's pigs have all been gathered together by me, as you who are responsible for suppressing them, why don't you follow the action? Zhao Kuan, do you dare to disobey my military orders? ”

After the old devil finished speaking, he puffed out his goldfish eyes. And Junhisa Ikeda, who was behind him, heard this, stepped forward and pulled out his command knife, and scolded: "Bage Yalu, Zhao Kuan, I think you are tired and crooked!" He was about to slash, but several of Zhao Kuan's subordinates saw it and drew their guns without hesitation, one of them pointed a gun at Ikeda's head, and shouted in a deep voice: "Put the knife down!" ”

Junhisa Ikeda just found Zhao Kuan's order to cooperate with his actions but was refused, feeling very shameless and holding back his anger, and only then did he take advantage of the situation. He obviously didn't expect Zhao Kuan's subordinates to have the courage to point a gun at him, and in shame, he swung his knife and slashed at Zhao Kuan, shouting: "Eight grids! ”

"Click!" He commanded the sword to be raised above his head, and the bolts of several barge guns were opened in unison. Seeing that a bloody conflict was inevitable, Okuichiro finally came forward, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Stop!" Then he stepped forward, slapped Ikeda in the face, and scolded, "What do you want to do, Ikeda?" Do you want the cadets to see the jokes? ”

Then he said to Zhao Kuan: "Zhao Sang, that's how you taught your subordinates?" How dare you point a gun at the Imperial Army? ”

Zhao Kuanneng became the commander of the puppet Ningbo Security Brigade, and he must have two brushes in his hands, he had a gloomy face, glared at Ikeda Junhisa without fear, and then bowed to Okuichiro, turned around and scolded a few of his subordinates: "Bastard, who told you to pull out your gun?" Don't put them all away for me! Want to rebel? ”

Several of his men immediately put away their guns.

Junhisa Ikeda was slapped in public, and the humiliation was great. Gu Shoufu first glared at him, and then said to Zhao Kuan: "Brigade Commander Zhao, I think it's you who wants to rebel!" Then he waved behind him and said, "Take down these fanatics for me!" ”

Junhisa Ikeda was held to the head with a gun pointed at the head by the puppet army, which was a great humiliation for the Japanese officers of the 6th Division.

Okuichiro stood up again and stopped them, he looked at Gu Shoufu and Zhao Kuan, his eyes finally fell on Gu Shoufu's face, and said: "Gu Shoujun, everyone is a soldier, and the war is not going well, it is inevitable that the mood will be a little excited, everyone is working for His Majesty the Emperor, so forget it." Brigadier Zhao! Why don't you come and apologize to His Excellency Gu Shou?! ”

Zhao Kuan gritted his teeth and stepped forward, bowed to Gu Shoufu and said, "Your Excellency, the little ones are not sensible, please forgive me." Gu Shoufu snorted and said, "I don't care about you in front of Dajiujun." Now, gather your troops and follow me to Simon! Today, no matter what, we are going to win Fuding! ”

Zhao Kuan gritted his teeth and waved his hand: "Let's go!" He led his men and walked quickly towards the barracks.

Gu Shoufu shouted from behind: "See you at the West Gate in half an hour, Brigade Commander Zhao don't make mistakes!" After shouting these words, he said to Okuichiro: "These villains are getting more and more disagreeable, and one day, I will slaughter them all!" ”

Okuichiro was noncommittal, and said: "Gu Shoujun, I have any questions, I want to ask you for advice in person, let's go, let's go in and talk." ”

The two of them entered the inner room, and Okuichiro retreated from everyone and said to Gu Shoufu: "Gu Shoujun, I don't know something, have you thought of the consequences of doing this?" ”

Gu Shoufu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Da Jiujun, did Zhao Kuan say something to you?" Do you need to take the words of the dog seriously? ”

Okuichiro shook his head and said, "It's not because of him, but because of Ouyang Yun." You should know exactly what happened to the plague in Nagoya last year, right? ”

Gu Shoufu sneered: "Are you worried about the revenge of the Chinese people?" Dajiujun, it's not me criticizing you, you don't have enough consciousness. What do you think is the nature of this battle? No matter which side of China and Japan loses, will they be able to turn over within a hundred years? It seems that you still don't understand the determination of the base camp to solve the incident in Southeast China! ”

Okuichiro's brows furrowed slightly, he remembered that Gu Shoufu had been recalled to China for a period of time, and said in his heart that he knew some secret information, and asked tentatively: "The base camp——"

"Do you know the way of Tonichiro Koizumi? It's the staff member that His Excellency Yamamoto trusts the most. Dajiu-kun, this matter is an imperial secret, and you should not mention it to anyone in the future. This Xiaoquan and Ouyang Yun of the Xuebing Army, they are not from our time. ”

"Huh?"

"They come from hereafter. Koizumi-kun mentioned the future of the two countries, and he said that Shina rose again later, and the purpose of his coming here was to make Shina never turn over. ”

"Is there such a thing?"

"Yes, think about it, can those strange weapons of the Cadet Army be made with the industrial base and scientific strength of the current Zhina people? Those are all successful products plagiarized by Ouyang Yun from later generations! Therefore, Ouyang Yun and the Xuebing Army must not stay! ”

"I see!"

"Oku-kun, this is the first time I've mentioned this to anyone else, so please keep it a secret."

"Don't worry, I'll keep this secret."
