Chapter 169: Killing 10,000 people to vent anger
Let's say that Gangcun Ningci landed in Taiyuan, and ordered his entourage to drive to Peach Blossom Island with a black face.
More than a dozen kilometers away in the blink of an eye, the Sanli Taohua Causeway is still full of devastation, although the corpses on the embankment and the broken branches and leaves that were swept away by machine guns have been cleaned up, but you can still see the traces that abound after the war.
Gangcun Ningci ordered the driver to stop, pushed the car door and stepped on the bluestone pavement of the Peach Blossom Embankment, withdrew his eyes from the broken peach trees on both sides of the Peach Blossom Embankment, walked a few steps and bent down to pull out a 7.7 mm bullet with blood stains from between the two stone slabs, put it under his nose and sniffed it, turned to the surviving generals of the First Army who followed behind him tremblingly, and asked:
"How many Imperial soldiers died on this road?"
The surviving generals of the First Army looked at each other and looked at the deputy head of the combat headquarters, Tanaka Injiro, who was the highest-ranking officer of the surviving generals of the First Army and the only survivor of the banquet of Yoshio Shinozuka that night, who was wounded by a bullet in his thigh and limped when he walked.
Tanaka Injiro stubbornly stepped out of the ranks, lowered his head and replied: "Report to the commander, there is no specific count of the number of dead on the peach blossom embankment, Xie Baoqing's sneak attack that day caused a total of 177 of us to be killed, 521 people were injured, 31 fighters were destroyed at Caizhuang Airport, and the fuel depot of the airport ammunition depot was also blown up at the same time. ”
Okamura Ninji listened silently with a dark face, pinched the warhead and walked to Tanaka Injiro and the others, his eyes swept over everyone's faces in turn, and asked, "The headquarters was attacked, did the nearby garrisons rush to the rescue?" ”
Tanaka Injiro Tachimasa replied loudly, "Hi." ”
Okamura Ningji stared at Tanaka Injiro and asked in a deep voice, "Are you sure that the nearby garrisons have come to the rescue?" ”
Injiro Tanaka pondered for three seconds and stood up again: "Hi." ”
Gangcun Ningci's eyes narrowed: "The Caizhuang Garrison Brigade of the Appeasement Army, which is less than fifteen kilometers away from here, is also here?" ”
Tanaka Injiro paused for a moment, and couldn't help sweating on his forehead: "I didn't count the Chinese army, it seems that they didn't come, and none of the Chinese came." ”
Gangmura Ninji raised his hand and slapped Tanaka Injiro four times in a row, and ordered with a black face: "Kill all the Chinese within three kilometers of here, and kill all the Chinese soldiers and policemen who did not come to the rescue within fifteen kilometers of here." ”
Everyone was taken aback, and Tanaka Injiro was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak.
According to Gangcun Ningci's order, at least tens of thousands of people will be killed.
Seeing that Tanaka Injiro didn't respond, Okamura Ninji was furious, and slapped Tanaka Injiro four times in a row, Tanaka Injiro was startled, and hurriedly stood up and responded loudly: "Hi"
"Execute it immediately," shouted Ningji Gangmura.
Tanaka Injiro hurriedly saluted and limped away, cold sweat rolling down his forehead, half of it was a pain in his thigh, half of it was frightened.
As soon as this Gangcun Ningci came, the style of painting immediately changed.
Gangcun Ningci walked along the Peach Blossom Embankment to Peach Blossom Island with a black face, and the officials of the First Army followed behind him tremblingly, but they witnessed Gangcun Ningci escaping death from Xie Baoqing's hands, and mistakenly thought that Gangcun Ningci's order was purely to vent their anger.
The first officers and men had long been accustomed to Shinozuka Yoshio's soft policy, and never thought that Gangmura Ningji could use tens of thousands of Chinese lives to vent his anger, and this dismount frightened them.
Gangcun Ningji walked on the peach blossom embankment without hurrying, only Kita Chengyi dared to accompany Gangcun Ningci, and the others followed behind him in fear, for fear that Gangcun Ningci would get angry again and hurt himself.
If you only talk about military rank, the gap between the group of people behind you and the rank of Gangcun Ningci is too big.
Okamura Ninji is a general, and the highest rank in their group is now only Nakasa, and the only one is Osa who was slapped eight times by Okamura Ninji and ran away.
That damn Xie Baoqing was a one-handed senior general of the First Army.
At present, only the head of the secret service, Lieutenant General Kita Seichi, is qualified to accompany Gangmura Ninji.
"Your Excellency Commander, I suddenly remembered that there was a piece of information mentioning Xie Baoqing, but I don't know if that Xie Baoqing is the same person as Xie Baoqing we met." Kita Seiichi said in a low voice.
Gangcun Ningci snorted, and Kita Chengyi knew that Gangcun Ningci was asking him to continue, so he hurriedly thought about it carefully and said: "More than two months ago, the Taiyuan Special Service Station reported an ordinary news, the intelligence said that Li Yunlong, the Independent Regiment of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, sent troops to exterminate the Heiyunzhai bandit Xie Baoqing in order to vent his personal anger, I didn't pay much attention to this information at that time, and I wasn't sure if this Xie Baoqing was the same Xie Baoqing. ”
Gangcun Ningci frowned slightly: "Go and find out." ”
Xi Duocheng nodded in response and said fiercely: "Just now the airport reported that Xie Baoqing gave us a war letter on the radio, saying that he was waiting for us in Zhangzhuang. ”
"Zhang Zhuang, Zhang Zhuang again?" Gangcun Ningji's eyebrows jumped suddenly, and he stopped and looked at Kita Seiichi: "The origin of the great chaos in the northwest of Jin is Zhangzhuang, at that time, Shinozuka Jun analyzed that it may be the Zhang Zhuang of the Eighth Route Army's Li Yunlong Army's sneak attack, do you say that Shinozuka Jun will be mistaken, it was this Xie Baoqing who attacked Zhang Zhuang in the first place, and he has already controlled Zhang Zhuang, so a series of battles will revolve around Zhang Zhuang." ”
Gangmura Ningji is really powerful, although he is still just guessing, he has already guessed Xie Tian's strategic intentions.
Xi Duocheng was shocked in his heart, and quickly filtered the battle situation in the entire northwest of Jin in his mind, and sure enough, the original intention of the outbreak of each battlefield was this Zhangzhuang.
Kita Cheng looked at Gangcun Ningci in shock: "If this battle in the northwest of Jin was planned by this Xie Baoqing, then this enemy is too terrifying." ”
Gangcun Ningji snorted and said: "Whether it is him or not, this person must be eliminated, call them in, and I will listen to them report to me alone." ”
With that, Gangcun Ningji strode into the Japanese army headquarters on Peach Blossom Island.
Although Xie Tian inflicted a devastating blow to the headquarters of the Japanese First Army on Peach Blossom Island, most of the buildings of the First Army Headquarters are still well preserved, after all, the Zero fighter plane that Xie Tian was piloting at that time could only hang two aerial bombs, all of which were thrown in the small courtyard where Yoshio Shinozuka was entertained.
Walking into the headquarters, Gangmura Ningji began to work on the reorganization of the First Army.
Since Gangcun Ningji already had the speculation that Xie Tian was the source of the great chaos in the northwest of Jin, even if the new commander of the First Army, Oshima Katsu, who he was to appoint, was not seriously injured, he would personally command the killing of Xie Tian.
