Chapter 898 What is the reputation of your mountain city?
Well-informed?
Okamura Neiji did not deny that he had been here for a long time, even longer than some senior generals.
"The culture of the mountain city is very strong, and their accumulated wisdom is incomparable to ours." Okamura Neiji looked at Nanzō Yunko; "So what is this sentence you said?"
"They come, the security."
what?
Okamura Neiji frowned and looked at Nanzō Yunko.
This is how the saying is used. What does it have to do with making the best of things?
But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it made sense. He could not avoid his current situation. Isn't it just a matter of making the best of it?
"I guess he will come to see you. When he arrives, you can notify us."
Hase Qing looked at Zhou Weiguo and Nan Zaoming who were sitting on the sofa with a numb expression.
"You guys are taking turns, right? Xiao Ya just left not long ago and you guys came right after. Do you think this is your home or what do you mean?"
Zhou Weiguo smoked silently, while Minamizō Akiko quietly ate the sushi on the table.
No one spoke, which made Chang Guqing very flustered. He coughed twice, put down the teacup, and sat down in front of Zhou Weiguo. "I don't think there's anything I have here that you would like."
From the very beginning, Zhou Weiguo looked down on the things here. He was able to get a lot of weapons from here by picking up the tall ones from among the short ones.
But now, they have the support of the North Soviet Union and the United Kingdom. It seems that these people should have looked down on the Empire's weapons and equipment.
"We're not here for anything." Zhou Weiguo glanced at him and put out his cigarette. "We're going to Tokyo."
Going to Tokyo?
After looking Zhou Weiguo up and down for a while, Chang Guqing asked, "What are you going to do in Tokyo?"
"During the Battle of Tonggu, the British troops withdrew their defenses without authorization. We had no choice but to retreat towards Mandalay. The British 1st Division suffered heavy losses. The South Asian side actually came to hold us accountable and asked us to refute the past. They were worried that we would abandon our efforts, so they gave us more supplies."
"I see. Blackmail failed, and instead you were the one who blackmailed them. And they also realized that you can contain the Imperial Army's idiots, right?"
"Yes, we are taking money from others to help them eliminate disasters. They have given us so many supplies. If we don't show any appreciation, it will probably be detrimental to our cooperation with them."
"Why do these words sound so harsh?" Chang Guqing's sarcastic words did not cause any fluctuation in Zhou Weiguo.
Zhou Weiguo coughed and said, "If it were me, I would shamelessly find any excuse to refuse, but this is no longer a personal matter. It involves the country. Our mountain city cannot leave such a bad reputation."
reputation?
Does the mountain city still have this thing nowadays?
"Are you overestimating yourselves? Does your mountain city still have a reputation now?" Chang Guqing lit a cigarette and looked at Zhou Weiguo.
What about reputation? How could Zhou Weiguo say such a thing?
Zhou Weiguo frowned; "What do you mean by that?"
"Before the Battle of Wuhan, your reputation among various countries was quite good. But after the Battle of Wuhan, your reputation has been completely destroyed. You cheated and deceived people everywhere, and even took advantage of the situation in the North Soviet Union and the United Kingdom. You have no sense of propriety and shame in taking advantage of our empire and plundering the United States. Finally, you took advantage of this incident to incorporate the entire area north of Mandalay into your sphere of influence, and expanded it into your Yunnan. You don't think you really have any reputation left, do you?"
Zhou Weiguo's mouth twitched.
This made sense and he couldn't refute it.
"There's an old saying in my city: 'As long as I'm not embarrassed, then others will be embarrassed.' We don't care what others say, but we still have to use our limited face. After all, we can't really lose contact with the Western countries. If we do, I believe you will definitely launch a new round of attacks on us."
"A mosquito may be small, but it is still meat after all. Although my mountain city does not have many resources, its large population can provide you with more troops. When you can't get too many reinforcements, I don't believe you will not take action."
Hase Kiyoshi stood up and walked over to the wine rack, pulled out a bottle of red wine, opened it, and shook it. "Then I don't know, but based on my current understanding, the headquarters and the Prime Minister's Office have no such plans. As for the future..."
"Let's prepare for a rainy day." Zhou Weiguo took a sip from his wine glass. "Let's make arrangements. We're going to Tokyo."
Hasegawa Kiyoshi turned to look at the adjutant beside him. The adjutant flipped through the documents and said, "General, there's a transport plane leaving for Tokyo tonight."
"Get ready, we're leaving today." Chang Guqing folded his arms and looked at Zhou Weiguo for a long moment before asking curiously, "How do you plan to resolve this issue this time?"
Zhou Weiguo shrugged and smiled at his friend. "The Japanese army has launched another full-scale attack, and our Shancheng Army has no choice but to prioritize protecting the homeland. What do you think? This reason is appropriate."
It was perfect, so fucking perfect. There couldn't be a better reason for this.
"Then I wish you a safe journey. By the way, when you're done, remember to come back. I'll treat you to a roasted whole lamb."
The Navy also has its own transport planes, which are mainly responsible for transporting supplies looted from the local area, such as gold and silver jewelry and some letters from soldiers. This time, not only these will be transported, but also the ashes of the Marines during this period.
In the past, Zhou Weiguo would have found a way to grind these things into dust, but this time, facing the urns neatly wrapped in white cloth placed in the cabin, Zhou Weiguo did not intend to move.
"A lot of navy men died this time?" Minamizo Akiko, who was sitting next to Zhou Weiguo, looked at the hundreds of boxes. "How could they have lost so many?"
"I guess she was unlucky during the robbery." Zhou Weiguo glanced casually and lowered his voice. "Your eldest sister encouraged them to rob, and she probably lost her life during the robbery."
Minamizō Akiko leaned against him and said, "Boss, if the navy suffered such a miserable death, then the army must have suffered even more casualties."
"That's for sure. The later battles were mainly fought by the army. Let's not talk about anything else. Just in the battle of Tonggu, we killed at least more than 2,000 of them, not to mention..."
Zhou Weiguo suddenly stopped talking at this point. He suddenly thought of something. Minami Zao Mingzi should have known about this, but she knew it and talked about it. Could it be that there is some idea in it that he has not thought of yet?
"You...what do you mean by this?" Zhou Weiguo turned his head and asked when he saw her smiling face.
