Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Chapter 630 Losers Alliance

In Shangqiu City, in a room where the Japanese military secret service was stationed.

Since Sun Liangcheng arrived in Shangqiu, he was placed under house arrest by the Japanese army under the pretext of reviewing the situation on the battlefield. At first, the Japanese army actually sent several combat staff officers to ask Sun Liangcheng about the specific situation on the battlefield.

As a result, after a few days, the Japanese army did not send any more people over, but Sun Liangcheng's rank was not low, and the [-]th Division of the Appeasement Army was hanging out alone. Stay in touch with the outside world.

Regarding how to determine Sun Liangcheng's case, the Japanese army did not reach a unified opinion. The reason is that Kojima Yoshizang's jade was broken, and the Japanese army in Shangqiu lacked the final word. .

Araki Sadahiro advocated the execution of Sun Liangcheng as a memorial to the Japanese soldiers who died in battle, while Nishimura Takehiko was worried about getting rid of Sun Liangcheng, and the [-]th Division of the Appeasement Army rebelled, and advocated keeping Sun Liangcheng alive.

On the same day, the news that Dingtao, Caoxian, and Chengwu were lost one after another spread to Shangqiu. The Japanese army in Shangqiu was shocked, worried that the Eighth Route Army would take advantage of the trend to attack the empty Shangqiu.

On this occasion, there were only nearly [-] Japanese troops left behind in Shangqiu. In addition, there was a guard team of more than [-] people in the city.

On the same day, the Japanese army in Shangqiu asked for help from the [-]th Division, and immediately held an emergency meeting.

Since ancient times, where there are people, there has been struggle. This is true in China, and so is Little Japan. No one can escape this law.

conference room.

The main seat was vacated, with Araki Tehiro and Nishimura Takehiko on the right, and Kuroshima Morita on the left.

The atmosphere among the three was a little awkward. The two little devils, Araki Sadahiro and Nishimura Takehiko, thought that Kuroshima Morita was broken, but who would have thought that this guy would come back unscathed.

The two originally wanted to escort Kuroshima Morita back to the country in the name of being unfavorable in the battle, and sent him to a military court for trial, but under the protection of Isamu Terauchi, Neiji Okamura thought that the main responsibility for this battle was the idiot Kojima Kichizo, So he was ordered to stay in Shangqiu for his crime and meritorious deeds.

"Gentlemen, the Eighth Route Army captured Dingtao, Cao County, and Chengwu in two days. Now Shangqiu's defense force is empty, and the Eighth Route Army is very likely to launch an offensive against Shangqiu in the next step! So we must unite!" Araki Sadahiro took the lead Said.

"Yes, the current situation of the imperial army does not allow us to have other ideas. If Shangqiu falls, we will have to die to make amends!" Nishimura Takehiko said the same.

The two old devils were as anxious as ants on a hot pot. In contrast, Hei Dao Morita was not so anxious. Since Hei Dao Morita came back, he has noticed the subtle situation in Shangqiu City.

However, Sun Liangcheng's backer, Shan Chengzhi's help, was far away in Jinling. After learning that Kuroshima Morita returned to Shangqiu, Sun Liangcheng entrusted his wife to find Kuroshima Morita and climbed onto Kuroshima Morita's thigh.

Both of them escaped from the Battle of Southwest Shandong, so they formed an alliance of losers.

Sun Liangcheng needed a backer within the Japanese army, and Kuroshima Morita also needed a force to expand his voice.

In order to suppress the arrogance of Araki Sadahiro and Nishimura Takehiko and take the initiative, Kuroshima Morita did not express his position in a hurry, but brought up the old story again: "Araki-kun, Nishimura-kun, the previous brigade commander insisted on going his own way and violated the orders of the North China Dispatch Army Command , sent troops privately, causing all the soldiers in the army to be broken, which led to the current situation of the Eighth Route Army in Southwest Shandong!"

"Now there is a mess left. Because of this matter, the head of the Harada division has not given a clear reply for a long time. Is it necessary to report to the commander of Gangcun and ask the North China Dispatch Army Command to drop troops for reinforcements?"

"You know, when the brigade commander decided to send troops, the two of you were in Shangqiu. Why didn't you stop General Kojima's reckless move? You are jointly and severally responsible!"

The Fourth Cavalry Brigade is directly under the North China Dispatch Army, but it is managed by the [-]th Division and conducts security warfare in Southwest Shandong.

Harada Kumayoshi was exonerated from responsibility because of the defeat in the southwestern Shandong war, but he was extremely angry. This implicated the remaining personnel of the Japanese army in Shangqiu, so that Araki Sadahiro sent a telegram requesting reinforcements, but did not give a clear answer. Reply.

Araki Sadahiro's face changed when he heard the words, and now he would like to shirk responsibility like Kuroshima Morita, and said in a hurried tone: "The head of the brigade is already broken, and the incident has been determined. There is no need to entangle this matter, let's discuss how to solve the problem at hand. the predicament!"

Looking at the flustered Araki Sadahiro, Kuroshima Morita's face turned pale: "Masters, if I want to solve the current predicament, I have a way!"

"The top priority is to release Sun Liangcheng first. Since nothing is found out, let him be released!"

"No, in the southwestern Shandong battle, only the thirty-eighth division retreated unscathed, which is extremely suspicious. Moreover, all the advisers and instructors sent by the imperial army to the thirty-eighth division died in battle. How can this be explained?" Araki Sadahiro flatly refused. road.

"Hmph, Mr. Araki, you have to know that the [-]th Division of the Appeasement Army can't command without Sun Liangcheng. Right now, the division is stationed in Qingji and Guocunji. Are you really going to force the [-]th Division back? Mr. Nishimura , what do you say?"

Sun Liangcheng's wife had been active in the Japanese army before. Both Nishimura Takehiko and Kuroshima Morita accepted the benefits. Nishimura Takehiko said: "Araki-kun, Sun Liangcheng is still loyal to the imperial army, otherwise he knows that he will not escape the crime. You can go north and join the national army, judging from the situation at the time, he led the thirty-eighth division to retreat, which shows that he still has some abilities, we should not shirk all the responsibility on him!"

According to Sun Liangcheng's account, the Eighth Route Army's superiority in artillery fire destroyed the strength of the Imperial Army headquarters at the first time, and then covered up and killed them. When the general situation was over, he advocated preserving strength and retreating immediately, but the Japanese advisers advocated continuing to fight with the Eighth Route Army and going their own way. In the end, all died in battle.

Seeing the two teaming up, Araki Tehiro had to be silent.

"Then it's settled. Sun Liangcheng will be released after the meeting, and he will return to the [-]th Division to appease the troops and build a line of defense to the north of Shangqiu. In order to prevent the [-]th Division from disagreeing, Sun Liangcheng and I will personally go to the town! "Kuroshima Morita, as if he wanted to put his own safety out of the way, said righteously.

"Yo Xi, Kuroshima-kun is worthy of being a soldier of the empire. I apologize to you for the previous misunderstanding!" Nishimura Takehiko was extremely moved when he heard the words, stood up, and bowed respectfully.

In contrast, Araki Sadahiro, against the background of Kuroshima Morita, is like a reckless man who only knows how to pursue responsibility blindly, regardless of the chain reaction after killing Sun Liangcheng.

In fact, the little devil is not a fool. He has long guessed that Sun Liangcheng killed the Japanese advisers who were placed inside the [-]th Division in order to preserve his strength. However, the current situation does not allow the Japanese army to act aggressively.
