Chapter 148 We have to think about ourselves
Shit, this bastard was still planning to cheat, but since he couldn’t, he really had to get a command knife.
Five hundred dollars is not a small amount. Zhou Weiguo thought for a moment and pointed to a command knife on the wall next to him. "There is one that I originally intended to bring to my father. Now that you want it, take it."
If I could grab the Colonel's command knife the first time, I could grab it the second time. This was not surprising to me.
Ono waved his hand. "Today we killed two regiment commanders and a brigade headquarters. I don't want this command knife. I want the major general's knife. I can sell it for one thousand or two thousand dollars."
That's fine. Zhou Weiguo nodded, "You can see for yourself. Oh, by the way, let's go to Suzhou and buy some good food. We suffered some casualties in this battle. No matter what, we must give some good food to the brothers who are still alive."
Ono sighed and agreed, then knocked on the table. "Weiguo, the 114th Division suffered heavy losses this time. From what I know about Mimatsu Shigeharu, he said he is not a responsible person, and I'm afraid he will find someone to take the blame."
"What do you want to say?" Zhou Weiguo narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiaoye and asked.
Ono sighed, "Weiguo, we haven't had any capable people in the Japanese army since we came here. This is an opportunity. If we seize it, it will be easy for us to understand the movements of the Japanese army in the future. Even if it costs a little money, I believe you are not short of money, right?"
Infiltrate the army. Zhou Weiguo grinned and nodded; "Okay, I'll arrange someone to do this, you quickly go and trick that rich businessman into buying me a command knife."
Tian Jing had been beside Zhou Weiguo. After Xiao Ye left, he turned his head and looked at Xiao Ye: "I'm afraid I need your help in this matter."
I……
Tian Jing pointed at herself and said, "You might as well go to Deng Yaoxian instead of me. One word from him is worth ten thousand words from me."
Deng Yaoxian?
Zhou Weiguo lowered his head and thought for a while, then said to Fang Shengli who came in, "I will write a letter, and you arrange for someone to go to Nanjing and personally deliver the letter to Deng Yaoxian."
Fang Shengli, who was reporting the loss, glanced at Zhou Weiguo and nodded; "Okay, I understand."
The 74th Army once again demonstrated its power by defeating an enemy brigade in one battle. Yu Huohuo was not stingy this time and reported directly that all officers and soldiers of the independent regiment received two silver dollars, and Zhou Weiguo and Fang Shengli received a medal. In addition, the military also gave the independent regiment a few pigs.
Compared to the independent regiment which was celebrating happily on the front line, the 114th Division was in a gloomy mood at this moment.
The loss report of the 128th Brigade has come out.
Although the army was not completely wiped out, it was almost the same.
After receiving the report of the loss, Matsui Ishigen trembled with his hands and looked at Mimatsu Shigeharu in front of him with vicious eyes.
No longer caring that he was a lieutenant general, Matsui Ishige slapped him in the face in front of everyone and said, "You are greedy for merit and reckless. Although I asked you to use chemical weapons privately, why didn't you report it?"
With his face swollen, Mimatsu Shigeharu lowered his head and dared not say a word.
He was indeed greedy for credit, and he was the one who suppressed the matter of not reporting it. Chief of Staff Ono suggested that he report the situation and then use it. He was worried that the higher-ups would not agree, and at that time, he also believed that the other side did not have poison gas bombs.
He really doesn't know.
"Speak." Matsui Iwane shouted.
One brigade and two infantry regiments were wiped out, and the tanks and artillery were gone. All that was left were some logistical and auxiliary troops. This brigade was considered scrapped, and there was no way it could restore its combat effectiveness without a few months.
Mimatsu Shigeharu took a deep breath and looked up at Matsui Iwane; "General, this is my Chief of Staff Ono."
I'm sorry, Saburo Ono, I have no choice. The damage this time is too great. If you don't stand up and take the blame for me, my career will probably end here.
I'm sorry, but don't worry, no matter what, I will take care of your wife and daughter.
Matsui Iwane narrowed his eyes for a long time, then told him to get out and said to the adjutant beside him: "Arrest Ono Saburo immediately."
The adjutant lowered his voice and said, "Sir, was it Ono Saburo who did this?"
"No." Matsui Iwane confirmed and looked at the confused adjutant; "Misatsu Shigeharu also has connections in Tokyo, I can't touch him."
"But is this fair to Ono Saburo?" The adjutant was a little confused. It was clearly his problem, but he gave the responsibility to a subordinate. Wouldn't his behavior make the other brothers feel disheartened?
"Help him secretly, and then transfer him to the headquarters as a senior staff officer." Matsui Iwane rubbed his temple and came to the map.
The losses were too great. If he wanted to eliminate the losses of the 128th Brigade, he would have a chance only if he destroyed the Wu Fu Line.
After thinking for a while, Matsui Iwane pointed to the north of the map; "Let the 74th Division and the th Division gather their forces and attack the northern defense line. The rd Division, a brigade and the th Division will fully defend the th Army. Do not let them reinforce. Also, tell them that the enemy has an unknown number of poison gas bombs and tell them not to use them. Anyone who disobeys the army leader will be killed without mercy."
"Hi." The staff officer beside him wrote down the order and left. Matsui Iwane thought for a moment and said to the adjutant beside him, "Immediately ask the Special High Technology Department to investigate this batch..."
The adjutant did not allow Matsui Iwane to finish his words and interrupted him directly, "General, this matter cannot be investigated by the Special High Technology Department."
How did you investigate? How did this batch of ammunition end up in the hands of the enemy? Where was it lost? How was it lost? Please explain it clearly.
Of course, if the Special High Technology Department investigates, they will definitely find clues, and then the matter will be blamed on the General.
Your Excellency the General, who is already facing a dark cloud over his head, will face a tough time if investigation reveals that this batch of ammunition was seized by the enemy during the Shanghai campaign.
How could the person in front of me have a good ending? Absolutely not.
As his adjutant, he knew that when the city caught fire, everyone would suffer together. He and the general were like grasshoppers on the same rope.
If His Excellency the General is not having a good time, then you won't have an easy time either.
Matsui Iwane looked up at his adjutant.
The adjutant didn't care about the look in his eyes. "General, how did this batch of ammunition end up in their hands? Can you explain it clearly?"
If you can't explain it clearly, don't investigate this matter. You don't care where the poison gas bomb came from, anyway, I just don't know.
There is no other way, we can only blame it. I just don't know, maybe it was given to them by the Soviet Union, or it may be given by Germany, it is not impossible.
The problem is, do the higher-ups really dare to investigate? Once the investigation is complete, you can still protest. Both sides are pulling for the opportunity, and I'm afraid even the local authorities don't dare to investigate this matter.
"General, I'm afraid we need to provide some guidance." The adjutant suggested this as he thought more and more it made sense.
