The officers and soldiers on the ground loaded their bullets with numb expressions and stiff movements like robots, ready to fire.

The cries of women and children came from behind the officers and soldiers, which surprised Zhang Yun, Qi Zeyuan and other officers and soldiers. They immediately heard that although these cries were equally miserable, they were in Japanese. .

The officers and soldiers turned their heads in disbelief, and saw groups of marines armed with live ammunition escorting groups of civilians with their hands tied behind their backs to disembark from the Dashengguan Wharf, and then directly escorted to the position, tens of thousands of them.

The crowd stumbled and cried, and the marines who escorted them unceremoniously smashed and smashed with the butt of their guns. There were many people in the crowd who were beaten to the ground.

"This is... what's going on?" Zhang Yun was stunned.

"They are all Japanese expatriates who have fallen into our hands, a bunch of pure-blooded Japanese bastards!" Yu Shihang and Bu Xiao, who were ordered by Jiang Weiguo to do this, walked over with hatred on their faces. "Aren't the Japanese crazy? We want to let them You know, we have their people on our hands too.

They were all concentrated in Jiujiang, and the fleet shipped them over overnight!"

Zhang Yun felt that he couldn't make a turn in his head. He looked towards the river and saw the destroyer Weiguo and the gunboat Datong parked on the shore of the pier, as well as [-] or [-] civilian ships, all of which were full of Japanese expatriates. , Even the decks of the Weiguo and Datong were densely packed with Japanese expatriates, and the heavily armed Marines were shouting to drive these Japanese off the ship.

Time was running short and there were not enough ships, so Yu Shihang could only do this. Every ship was seriously overloaded, and even the warships were loaded with thousands of Japanese expatriates.

Among the Japanese expatriates transported over, except for infants and children under the age of five, all men had their hands and feet tied behind their backs, and all women had their feet tied.

Amidst the sobbing and crying of Japanese, tens of thousands of Japanese nationals were driven to the position of Dashengguan by the National Army Marine Corps.

Seeing the Sun Flag in the distance, the Japanese expatriates all went crazy and burst into tears, some cried hoarsely, and some knelt down and wailed.

Bu Xiao seemed to have thought of something, he stepped forward and dragged a Japanese man wearing glasses, over fifty years old and dressed as a literati in the crowd, until he reached the front of the camp, and then viciously pointed at the corpses of Japanese soldiers scattered in front of the camp And the remains of Chinese civilians: "Show me clearly! Have you seen it? Have you seen the good things you Japanese army has done? Along the way, you old guy has been preaching to Lao Tzu, saying that the Japanese army is civilized The army, it is impossible to do things that harm Chinese civilians, and say that what we do is a blasphemy against the spirit of human civilization, aha, what else has tarnished the honor of our own army, violated the international law of war and the Geneva Convention, and trampled on the Humanitarian spirit, discredit China and the Chinese army... Haha! I laughed! Widen your dog eyes, let me see clearly! Your Japanese army can’t beat us, so you use our people as hostages and meat shields! It’s you The army did this first! So, don’t cry for injustice when you die! You deserve what you deserve! Damn it! If you, an old fellow, hadn’t done some personnel work in Shanghai and helped Mr. Lu Xun, I would have been on the way Throw you into the Yangtze River to feed the fish!"

The former Shanghai Neishan Bookstore owner and Mr. Lu Xun's best friend Neishan Wanzao, who was dragged by Bu Xiao, trembled insensibly.

Uchiyama Wanzo raised his head reluctantly, looked at the horrific scene on the battlefield, and then at the Japanese army escorting Chinese civilians approaching in the distance, he burst into tears and burst into tears.

On the snow field in front of the Dashengguan position, the Japanese army took a large number of Chinese civilians as hostages and kept approaching, but on the position, the Nanjing Army took a large number of Japanese civilians as hostage chips.

Later, Stilwell, who learned of the incident, said: "This way of fighting is no longer a war, but a naked racial vendetta!"

"Jiang Weiguo! What are you doing? Speak up! What are you doing?" Liu Wugou asked tremblingly after Jiang Weiguo who was striding out of the headquarters.

Jiang Weiguo didn't say a word, Liu Wugou grabbed Jiang Weiguo: "Jiang Weiguo! Speak up!"

"What else can I do?" Jiang Weiguo said without any emotion in his voice, "A tooth for a tooth! Blood for blood!" He twitched his cheek because his left cheek was completely bruised by Liu Wugou's slap just now, and he moved when he spoke. Muscles ached.

"Are you crazy?" Liu Wugou grabbed Jiang Weiguo tightly, eyes that could be described as frightened, "Are you going to kill Japanese civilians?"

"They forced me!" Jiang Weiguo said sullenly, "The Japanese killed our civilians first!"

"But...but..." Liu Wugou showed fear for the first time in front of Jiang Weiguo. She was not only afraid of such a terrible thing, but also afraid of Jiang Weiguo himself.

Ever since he got to know Jiang Weiguo and was with him, Liu Wugou has figured out Jiang Weiguo's temper. Jiang Weiguo is a very good-tempered person. Women are even more "models of good men". They never do anything, and they hardly speak. Because Jiang Weiguo is "weak and can be bullied", Liu Wugou dared to "bully" Jiang Weiguo. She just slapped Jiang Weiguo out of anger. After hitting Jiang Weiguo, Jiang Weiguo didn't get angry at all, but Liu Wugou suddenly found that Jiang Weiguo's expression was very scary at this time, which can be described as gloomy.

Even knowing that Jiang Weiguo has a good temper and that he loves him, Liu Wugou is still flustered.

It is very serious for a good-tempered person to suddenly kill someone.

Just like the perverted killers of the later generations, each of them does not look vicious, but knowledgeable but with a dark expression.

Jiang Weiguo looked at Lin Tianyu, Yu Shihang and other officers who were waiting for his order: "You go to work first!" He looked back at Liu Wugou with bitter eyes, "Oh, do you know what the Japanese call us Chinese? China pigs, China pigs! In their eyes, we are just pigs and dogs that look like people.

They kill us as soon as they want, without any scruples, without any psychological burden, and without any guilt or self-blame, because we are pigs and dogs in their eyes.

I won’t talk about those massacres, did I tell you?The Japanese Unit 731 directly used us Chinese living people for experiments!Not only that, the Japanese mined minerals on our land, plundered volunteers, forced our laborers, squeezed out the value and massacred them. There will be mass graves full of bones near every large mine, and the Japanese army will build fortifications and bunkers What's more, it is also the forced labor of our country, and the massacre will be directly massacred after the repair.

The lives of us Chinese are worthless in the eyes of the Japanese.

What else can we do in the face of such an enemy?The only way to stop war is with war, and to stop killing with killing.

They don't talk about humanity, so should we still talk about it? "

"But what you want to kill...are civilians!" Liu Wugou sobbed, "There are old people, women, and children..."

"To deal with animals, we must use methods of animals.

Why did they have no scruples when they killed us?Because they are animals, they can kill our old people, women, and children?Do we still have to be human in front of animals?The Japanese don't treat us as human beings, well, we don't.

They don't have any restrictions on what they can do, and neither do we, they forced us!" Jiang Weiguo looked at Liu Wugou with pity in his eyes, "The world is cruel, so be sober! "

The Battle of Nanjing was destined to be extremely cruel, but on the battlefield of Dashengguan on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the cruelty of the war intensified again.

The armies of the two sides took the civilians of the other side as hostages and launched an indescribable confrontation.

The officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army on the battlefield were all shattered, and the Japanese soldiers in front of the battlefield were all shocked and amazed.

"Oriental bastards! Listen to me!" Liu Fengling, who is proficient in Japanese, raised a tweeter, his voice was stern and furious, "If you kill us civilians, we will retaliate in the same way!" He said to Zhang beside him Cloud gestured.

Zhang Yun waved his hand violently, and the officers and soldiers angrily stripped off the clothes of the Japanese expats, making them shiver in the cold wind and snow just like the Chinese civilians detained by the Japanese army. Five hundred young and middle-aged men selected from the Japanese overseas Chinese crowd.

"Use this batch of Japanese slaves to pay homage to those compatriots who died!" Zhang Yun roared with tears in his eyes, "Shoot!"

Intensive gunshots and Japanese screams sounded together, and as blood splashed, five hundred young and middle-aged male Japanese were all shot dead in front of the Dashengguan position.

Disappointed Japanese cries and cries for help came from the crowd of Japanese overseas Chinese, and the Japanese overseas Chinese shouted desperately to the Japanese army hundreds of meters away:

"The imperial army save us!"

"You are His Majesty's army, we are His Majesty's people, please save us!"

"We don't want to die!"

The Japanese soldiers who saw this scene were completely panic-stricken.

"Release our civilians immediately!" Liu Fengling shouted sharply, "Otherwise we will kill them all!"

"Your Excellency, Commander!" Nakazawa and other officers looked at Lieutenant General Nakajima with a face like a pig's liver in panic, "What should we do? So many imperial expatriates are in the hands of the Chinese Army!"

Lieutenant General Nakajima almost gritted his mouth full of teeth. He was extremely furious. He didn't really care about the life and death of those expatriates. He was just annoyed that the Nanjing Army used this trick, which made his plan to win the Dashengguan fall into a dilemma again. middle.

"Tell the Chinese Army!" Lieutenant General Nakajima said viciously, "The two sides will exchange civilians!"

"Reject the conditions of the Japanese!" Jiang Weiguo replied without hesitation after receiving the report, "No exchange! Let the Japanese army release our civilians immediately!"

"Why not exchange?" Liu Wugou looked at Jiang Weiguo in disbelief, "Since you have so many Japanese nationals in your hands, you can save many Chinese civilians who fell into the hands of the Japanese army!"

"Then I will be fooled by the Japanese!" Jiang Weiguo sullenly said, "The number of Japanese nationals in my hands is limited, only about 900. How many Chinese civilians are there in the hands of the Japanese? In the southern Jiangsu area alone More than [-] million! The Japanese exchanged [-] Chinese people for the [-] Japanese expatriates in my hands, what’s next? The Japanese can still use this method!”

Lieutenant General Nakajima’s plan was just as Jiang Weiguo judged. On the one hand, he didn’t want to give up this disgraceful but effective tactic, and on the other hand, he didn’t want to bear the infamy of “abandoning the subjects of the empire”, although he really didn’t care too much about it. The life and death of those expatriates.

After making up his mind, Lieutenant General Nakajima ordered with a ghostly expression: "Don't pay attention to the blackmail of the Chinese army! Continue to attack!"

"What?" General Nakazawa and other officers were stunned, "Your Excellency, Commander! Those expatriates..."

"It's as if they were all loyal to the emperor!" Lieutenant General Nakajima said with a grim expression, "How can we, the imperial soldiers, waste the important affairs of the empire for the sake of those expatriates?"

"This... this..." General Nakazawa and other officers were at a loss for what to do.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander!" Sasaki, the commander of the 30th Brigade, and a major general rushed over in a panic, "The Chinese Army has taken a hostage!"

"What hostage?" Lieutenant General Nakajima said in disgust.

"Masahiko Otowa, the son of His Royal Highness Hatohiko Asaka Palace!" Major General Sasaki said surprisingly.

"What?" Lieutenant General Nakajima suddenly turned pale with shock.

On the position of the Nanjing Army, a huge cross was raised high, and Masahiko Otowa, the second son of King Hatohiko Asakamiya, was tied to the cross like a crucified Jesus.

Otowa Masahiko was already out of his wits, his liver and gallbladder were torn apart.

"Release our civilians in your hands immediately!" Liu Fengling issued an ultimatum to the Japanese army under Jiang Weiguo's order, "It will be done within one minute! Otherwise, we will cut off his arm first! Then cut off his limbs!"

Jiang Weiguo took out his saber, the samurai sword of Lieutenant General Tashiro Kanichiro.

"Participate! Give it to me!" Zhang Yun stretched out his hand to Jiang Weiguo with a resolute expression.

Jiang Weiguo nodded and handed the saber to Zhang Yun.

Jiang Weiguo had already figured it out. The Japanese army may not care much about the lives of tens of thousands of expatriates, but this Masahiko Otowa is the son of Lieutenant General Hatohiko, a member of the royal family, and his weight is worth as much as [-] Japanese civilians. Maybe it works better.

One kilometer away, Lieutenant General Nakajima watched this scene almost insanely.

"...Ten! Nine! Eight!..." Liu Fengling counted down loudly.

Masahiko Otowa was trembling like chaff, and hot urine flowed from his crotch.

"...Three! Two! One!..." As soon as Liu Fengling finished speaking, Zhang Yun slashed out like lightning, cutting off Otowa Masahiko's left arm in an instant, blood spurting wildly.

Masahiko Otoba let out a heart-rending howl. Liu Fengling brought the tweeter to Masahiko Otowa's mouth. Immediately, Masahiko Otowa's howling screamed almost throughout the battlefield.

Several military doctors from the Nanjing Army immediately stepped forward to bind Masahiko Otowa's artery and inject blood coagulant. This person is very important, and Jiang Weiguo cannot let him bleed to death all at once.

"Stop the attack!" Lieutenant General Nakajima said these words one by one through his teeth, "Release those Chinese people!"

Chapter 297 Furious City (7)

Tokyo, the capital of the Japanese Empire, has a population of 650 million.

Soichiro Shibusawa walked out of a small restaurant on Yoshihara Street in Taito District with a full belch, lit a thick Cuban cigar, and smoked it comfortably and comfortably. His face was flushed and he was satisfied, because he I am very satisfied with my life at this time and what I have achieved. 10 minutes ago, he just signed a business contract with the Japanese military. According to that contract, his company can go to China immediately with the approval of the military. Hebei Province exploits various mineral resources and completely monopolizes the "resource mining rights" of Hebei Province, and both parties share half and half of the profits.

According to a rough estimate, the contract can bring Soichiro Shibusawa more than 2000 million yen in net profit every year, and it will continue to grow as time goes by and the scale of the industry expands.

Thinking of this, Soichiro Shibusawa is both proud and regretful. He is proud that he has successfully defeated many competitors in the business war in the past few months and obtained a new land with great potential in Hebei Province. Unfortunately, he failed to A slice of the richer Manchuria.

"Manchuria's iron ore, coal, natural gas and other resources are much more abundant than those in Hebei Province. Unfortunately..." Soichiro Shibusawa was full of ambition, but he still had more to say, "But..." He flicked on the ashes of his cigar, "Fortunately, I first To act aggressively, I booked Shanxi Province and Shandong Province with the military. The coal in Shanxi Province alone can bring in a net profit of more than 5000 million yen a year! However, those arrogant soldiers actually want I provided 500 million yen to support them in attacking Shanxi and Shandong provinces. The military’s appetite is really huge! But, without investment, how can there be any return? I can only agree with it heartily!” He said deeply Taking a deep breath, I thought over and over again, "I was able to book Shanxi Province and Shandong Province, which have not yet been occupied by the military. The enthusiasm is not high, so I can take advantage of it.

According to some secret information disclosed to me by military insiders, the military suffered a lot on the Nanjing battlefield and failed to take Nanjing for a long time. Naturally, the military will not be able to attack Shanxi and Shandong provinces for a long time , Therefore, spending money to book these two provinces with the military now is a typical long-term investment. Perhaps, the military will not be able to attack and occupy the two provinces until a year later. Abandon the plan to attack Shanxi and Shandong provinces... Those companies must have considered this point. They think that not only the time to get Shanxi and Shandong provinces is too long, but also the chances are not high, so they hesitate.

Hmph, many people are making fun of me, thinking that I spent huge sums of money to reserve Shanxi Province and Shandong Province with the military just because I was looking for fish, and in the end, it would be nothing. However, Shanxi and Shandong provinces are not available for 500 yuan. Not only will the company's income drop sharply, but its strength will also be greatly damaged.

Don't they understand that shopping malls are like battlefields, and sometimes they just want to gamble!I'm just betting that the military will definitely attack Shanxi and Shandong provinces. If the bet wins, the company will... the company will... be completely revived! "

Soichiro Shibusawa secretly made up his mind: "Whether the company can grow bigger and stronger at once depends on this! Father, I will definitely not disappoint your expectations! We will definitely make our Shibusawa Group the No. One! Many people say that I am a 'tiger father and dog son', I will definitely prove it to them! Just watch your spirit in heaven!"

Shibusawa Soichiro's father is the famous "Father of Japanese Modern Enterprises" and "King of Japanese Industry" Shibusawa Eiichi.

Eiichi Shibusawa was a famous industrialist during the Meiji and Taisho periods in Japan. After decades of hard work, he was a shrewd and capable man who cleverly used the great opportunity of Japan's modernization and industrialization in recent decades to create an unparalleled business empire. Shibusawa Trading Company has also become the overlord in the Japanese business world, with industries spanning multiple key economic sectors such as railways, ships, fisheries, printing, steel, gas, electricity, oil refining, and mining. However, with the death of Shibusawa Eiichi, the successor , His son Shibusawa Soichiro is far inferior to him in ability, and the company's veterans have divided up the company's property many times. Coupled with the rise and suppression of the four new chaebols, Mitsui, Mitsubishi, Sumitomo, and Yasuda, the Shibusawa business group is shrinking day by day. It has strong strength, but it is only a second-rate consortium in Japan.

Faced with such a situation, Soichiro Shibusawa learned from the pain. He repeatedly thought about the reasons why the company was getting worse and worse. In the end, he believed that there were two main reasons: one was that his father died on November 1931, 11, and at that time, September 11 The incident broke out for more than three months. The Japanese military occupied the extremely fertile Northeast China. Mitsui, Mitsubishi, Sumitomo, Yasuda and other chaebol companies "rushed madly to Manchuria, signed contracts with the military, and developed Manchuria." A huge amount of benefits has been obtained, but Shibusawa Company has fallen into chaos and even internal divisions due to the death of the founder. The entire company had no leader, and as a result, it missed the great opportunity of "developing Manchuria". Competitors such as Mitsui Corporation were making a lot of money in Manchuria, but Shibusawa Corporation was standing still; the second reason was that Shibusawa Corporation was mainly engaged in civilian use. Enterprises have not significantly cooperated with the military to develop military enterprises. Competitors such as Mitsui Corporation have focused on cooperating with the military to help the military develop new colonies, help the military to develop and produce aircraft and warships, etc., thereby gaining huge profits. Naturally, Shibusawa lost out in this aspect again. How can producing cars make money as producing tanks?
