Chapter 266: The Unlucky Shigedo Detachment
"Baga Ya Road!" Chiaki Shigedo, who was injured and wrapped in bandages, looked at the messy Keelung Port and couldn't help but curse loudly. Chiaki Shigeto, the old devil, was lucky, but he suffered a little skin injury in the bombing just now, and the old guy Kobayashi Takuzo was not so lucky, a piece of shrapnel cut a big hole in the back of the old devil, although he was not killed on the spot, but only half a life was left, and now he has been rushed to the hospital for rescue.
"Your Excellency, General! The casualties have been counted! An officer said as he walked up to Chiaki Shigedo and stubbornly said. When Chiaki Shigeto was in a state of rage, it was not a good errand to report the casualties to him, and if he didn't get it right, he might become Chiaki Shigeto's punching bag, so the sadness on the officer's face was not faked, but his grief was not for his comrades who died in the port, for the division to catch up with such an unlucky errand for himself.
"Say!" Chiaki Shigedo squeezed out a word viciously from his mouth.
"In the bombardment of the people of China just now, a total of 3,417 soldiers in this detachment were broken, and more than 2,000 people were injured, of which about 500 were seriously injured!" The officer carefully reported the results.
"Yaga!" Chiaki Shigedo grabbed the collar of the officer and said viciously, "How is it possible? How could it be possible to lose so much? ”
"This, Your Excellency General, when the Chinese Air Force attacked, our army was under review, the people on the port were too dense, and the Chinese fighters were coming too fast, and our army was caught off guard and could not evacuate at all! And there was chaos during the evacuation, and there were not a few people who were trampled to death! The officer said in a trembling voice.
"Baga Ya Road!" Chiaki Shigeto pushed the officer to the ground, then raised his fist to the sky and roared, "Damn Jin Zhao! I'm going to cut off your head with my own hands! It's no wonder that Chiaki Shigedo is so angry. Originally, Chiaki Shigeto was very excited after receiving the news of the urgent reinforcement of the Shanghai battlefield, thinking that his opportunity to show his skills had arrived. But unexpectedly, before the troops set off, they lost more than half of them under the bombardment of the Fujian Air Force.
On the contrary, Jin Zhao, who was sitting in the office at this time, was unusually relaxed, and Xu Wenqiang had already reported to Jin Zhao about the Air Force's successful air raid on Keelung Port. Jin Zhao said excitedly, "En! Well done! There is no doubt about the merits of the Air Force, but don't forget to give credit to the Treasure Island team! ”
"Yes!" Xu Wenqiang replied with a smile.
The so-called Baodao Group is an intelligence group under Jin Zhao, and after Jin Zhao took over Fujian, he began to establish his own intelligence organization, which is mainly aimed at Yue himself. Jin Zhao selected a group of intelligence officers under Jin Jiu, and after secret training, sent all of them to North Korea and Yuben. In addition, Jin Zhao also developed a group of intelligence officers among the Taiwanese and sent them back to Taiwan, and a few of them went to the capital. Among them, there were two groups left in Taiwan, one codenamed Baodao and the other codenamed Yuetan Lake, and the information on the Shigeto detachment's expedition this time was provided by the Baodao group.
"The little devil is really arrogant! Don't remember to eat! Jin Zhao said contemptuously.
"That's it! If you go on the expedition, you will go on the expedition! I have to make some kind of farewell ceremony, it's just looking for death! Xu Wenqiang also said with a smile.
Jin Zhao nodded, but the smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a trace of sadness. Jin Zhao had read some information on the Internet in his previous life, during World War II, a total of 80,433 Taiwanese young and middle-aged people were conscripted into the army and became front-line combatants, and more than 126,750 people were conscripted as military dependents or military husbands, a total of 207183 people. In addition, young students who are studying in school must also participate in the "apprenticeship". Jin Zhao was really incomprehensible at first, why would these people be willing to die for the little devil?
At that time, the information was introduced in this way, and the consideration of the real life of the Taiwanese people was the most important factor. First of all, you will get more paid for working for the army. At that time, the salary level of ordinary people in Taiwan was about 20 yuan, and they could receive more than 200 yuan if they joined the army.
Second, being a soldier can obtain roughly the same social status as himself. It is said that the Taiwanese people in the era did not enjoy the same social status as the people themselves, and they were second-class or even third-class nationals: they ate white sugar, and the Taiwanese were rationed with inferior black sugar; He said that he eats high-quality lean meat, while Taiwanese can only supply a small amount of low-grade pork. As a result, many Taiwanese volunteered to join the army.
In order to live a better life, some soft bones are willing to be dogs for little devils, which is understandable, after all, even the mainland has one or two million puppet armies. But there is one thing that Jin Zhao cannot forgive, that is, in the original history, after this Chongteng detachment arrived in Shanghai, it participated in the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Nanjing, and participated in the Nanjing Massacre. And what is incomprehensible is that these two devils are not soft at all when they slaughter their compatriots, and they are even more ruthless than some little devils, in order to please their own masters. This is also the reason why Jin Zhao finally made up his mind to attack Keelung, and Jin Zhao will never be soft on these scum who have forgotten their ancestors.
However, not all Taiwanese people are oriented to themselves, and a large part of them are oriented to the mainland, and these people have never forgotten that they have the blood of Chinese people flowing in their bodies. During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Taiwanese also organized some anti-Japanese groups to join hands with mainland compatriots to resist the aggression of the Japanese army. Therefore, it is still necessary to treat the Taiwanese people differently, and they are willing to be their own lackeys, and naturally they cannot be treated softly, and those who have their hearts set on the mainland, Jin Zhao still hopes to unite these people and jointly complete the great cause of resisting the Japanese and the rejuvenation of the motherland, so Jin Zhao wrote that letter to the Taiwan compatriots. First, it is to warn those lackeys who have taken refuge in him, and secondly, it is also to unite those patriots.
"How is the Black Flag Army doing now?" Jin Zhao asked casually.
"It has gained a foothold in Taiwan! Everything is going well, and it has not yet attracted the attention of Yu himself. Xu Wenqiang replied.
The so-called Black Flag Army is the general name of several guerrilla units sent to Taiwan by Jin Zhao, whose purpose in going to Taiwan is to propagate the idea of resistance to Taiwan, spy on intelligence, secretly set up anti-Japanese base areas, develop anti-Japanese armed forces, and prepare for the recovery of Taiwan in the future. As for the title of the Black Flag Army, it is borrowed from the name of Liu Yongfu's Black Flag Army at the end of the Qing Dynasty.
The Black Flag Army, a local armed force in China at the end of the 19th century, took the seven-star black flag as its battle flag, hence its name. The main military campaign in the early period was to resist the rule of the Qing Dynasty. In 1867, the Qing offensive forced the Black Flag Army to enter Bao Thanh (present-day Lao Cai, Vietnam). Later, he won many victories in the war against the French invasion of Vietnam (Sino-French War), and the general Liu Yongfu (1837-1917) was awarded the post of deputy admiral of Sanxuan by the king of Vietnam. Together with the troops of the veteran Feng Zicai, the situation of the war was fundamentally reversed, forcing the French Jouferi cabinet that provoked the war to fall, and the Black Flag Army was ordered to be disbanded by the Qing court after returning to China. During the First Sino-Japanese War, the Black Flag Army was reorganized under the order of the Qing Dynasty, and was still led by Liu Yongfu and stationed on the island of Taiwan. After the army invaded Taiwan, Liu Yongfu refused to be called to withdraw to the mainland, and led the Black Flag Army-level Taiwanese rebels to resist the invasion of Taiwan by the Japanese army.
