I am Jiang Weiguo in World War II
Page 233
After determining the reason, Soichiro Shibusawa quickly prescribes the right medicine and begins to actively cooperate with the military to obtain military orders. Moreover, Soichiro Shibusawa, who was not interested in politics before, is the same as most chaebol businessmen in Japan. Actively support, support, and advocate the Japanese army's "expanding territory".
When the Japanese army goes to war abroad, such as the current war of aggression against China, the Japanese people support it, and the Japanese businessmen even support it enthusiastically, because war can bring them huge benefits.
The reason is simple: Soldiers use bayonets to rob other countries' land, and businessmen help the military "develop" these lands controlled by the military. Funds, so as to further "open up the frontier and expand the territory", and the merchants made a lot of profits because of this.
Mitsui Corporation and other Japanese chaebol business groups stepped on the blood and bones of countless foreigners to "be bigger and stronger". Right now, Soichiro Shibusawa is going to catch up. This is just an armed conflict between China and Japan, and it will not evolve into a full-scale war. However, Soichiro Shibusawa desperately spent huge sums of money to support the military in taking North China. When the war started, Mitsui Corporation and other chaebols believed that "there will be no fight" through the military's internal information, so they did not act for a long time. Shibusawa Soichiro's move was actually a mistake, but he really made the right bet, "No The Sino-Japanese war that will fight" actually started, which made him seize the opportunity to win the "new territory" of Hebei Province. Overjoyed, he continued his efforts and spent huge sums of money to support the military's attack on Shanxi Province And Shandong Province, the reward is "If the military really attacks and takes Shanxi Province and Shandong Province, Shibusawa Company has the priority to mine minerals in these two provinces", there is no doubt that if he wins the bet again, Shibusawa will most likely return to the throne of "No. [-] in Japan".
"I will!" Soichiro Shibusawa puffed out a long puff of smoke, "Father, you must be protecting me and guiding me, and I will not let you down! As long as Hebei Province, Shanxi Province, Shandong Province All become Shibusawa Corporation's overseas 'new territory', and Shibusawa Corporation will be able to rise again!"
Throwing away the cigar in his hand, Soichiro Shibusawa walked towards the private car on the side of the road full of confidence, and was about to return to the company, "Sir..." Someone behind him suddenly called him softly.
Shibusawa Soichiro turned his head, and he saw a young man with delicate features and gentle temperament, with a sunny and polite smile on his face.
"Are you..." he asked suspiciously.
"I'm an employee of a certain department, and I want to discuss a cooperation with you!" The young man smiled, "Don't worry, I'm only wasting your time for 5 minutes!"
Shibusawa Zongichiro's heart moved, and he secretly rejoiced: "Could it be another opportunity? Father, you must be protecting me, I will not miss this opportunity!" He also smiled: "Okay, yes, let's go Where to talk!"
"Just go to your car!" The young man smiled very gently, "It's only five minutes!"
"Okay!" Shibusawa Soichiro walked to his car and opened the door, "Please come in.
Tanaka, get out!" He said the last words to his driver.
"Okay, sir!" The driver immediately opened the door and went out. There were only Soichiro Shibusawa and the young man in the car.
"What do you want to talk to me?" Soichiro Shibusawa held back his excitement, "By the way, what should I call you? Which department do you belong to?"
"It doesn't matter!" laughed the young man, "what matters is the content of our conversation.
Shibusawa-san, I know your time is precious, so let's cut to the chase!Although your Shibusawa company has been going downhill in the past few years, it still has huge assets. For example, Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd. (Tokyo Gas Company), which provides heating to millions of people in Tokyo, is one of your businesses.
Well, the winter in Tokyo is really cold!Tokyo's latitude is higher than Nanjing, so Tokyo is colder than Nanjing!"
Soichiro Shibusawa was confused: "What do you want to say? Do you want to cooperate with me in natural gas development?"
The young man smiled, the smile was still very gentle, but there was a faint weirdness: "Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd., a big company! This company was founded by your father in 1885, after half a century of painstaking efforts It has developed into the fourth largest natural gas company in the world, with more than 4000 employees and more than 400 million users, not only residents of Tokyo City, but also residents of Kanagawa and other places near Tokyo City. The Yogi gas storage is known as the second largest gas storage in the world, with a capacity of [-] liters, which can be used by [-] residents for one year. Your company has a total of [-] gas storages with a storage capacity of more than [-] liters , scattered in different places in Tokyo City!"
Shibusawa Soichiro was a little annoyed: "What exactly are you going to say?"
The young man was still smiling, but his smile became more and more weird: "Sir, what if..." He smiled and said the words that followed like a cold wind, "Detonate these gas storage tanks with bombs, what will happen?"
Shibusawa Soichiro stared blankly at the young man, unable to react at all in his mind: "What did you say...?"
The young man smiled and said, "I said, what would happen if bombs were used to detonate those gas storages of your company?"
Shibusawa Zongichiro stared blankly at the young man, his thoughts were completely confused, he managed to stabilize his mind: "Your Excellency...are you kidding me? Which department or company do you belong to? This joke is not true at all. It's not funny! It's just boring! If you have nothing else to do, please get out of the car, I still have a lot to deal with!" He said sternly.
"I'm not joking, sir!" The young man was still smiling, but his smile made Soichiro Shibusawa shudder, "Actually, those gas storages of your company have been controlled by our people, and the powerful bombs have been It was installed on it, and more than that, we poisoned the reservoirs of three waterworks in Tokyo, and another five railway tracks were completely destroyed. There are our death squads carrying gas bombs in the Tokyo subway, ready to release them in the subway Poison gas, and even four schools have been controlled by us, and more than 3000 students have become hostages that we can kill at any time!"
Shibusawa Soichiro felt his blood flow back to the top of his head and freeze again. His voice trembled violently: "Who the hell are you? What do you want to do? Detonate those gas storages... many, many people will die!"
The young man smiled: "A lot of people will die? Of course, because this is our purpose!"
"Why...why are you doing this? Are you trying to...extort money?" Soichiro Shibusawa was stunned.
The young man shook his head with a smile: "As I said just now, our purpose is to kill people, as revenge for all the crimes committed by your Japanese army in our country.
We are very clear that what we killed were Japanese civilians, including many students, including many women and children, but we don't care, because you Japanese did it first.
Your entire nation is guilty, every one of you Japanese is guilty, and so are you, Mr. Shibusawa.
Like most of the big Japanese businessmen at this time, you are actively supporting your army to invade China, thus making you rich. The wronged souls of our compatriots, so don't feel angry or wronged, you Japanese have asked for it!"
"You...you are China...Chinese?" Soichiro Shibusawa began to feel the fear that went deep into his bones, and he was terrified.
The young man nodded: "Yes.
Didn't you just ask about my department?I’m telling you now, the Overseas Survey and Statistics Bureau of the Nationalist Government of the Republic of China!”
"You...have you infiltrated into Japan?" Soichiro Shibusawa lost his mind, "What do you want me to do?"
"We won't kill you!" The young man smiled again, "We just need you to help us convey a word to your government and your military. If they commit atrocities against Chinese civilians in China, such as collective Massacres, such as driving civilians to serve as hostages and human shields, we will fight back with fire.
Mr. Shibusawa, you should know that many things cannot be seen, and many things cannot be said on the table, but only through indirect channels. Therefore, we want you to pass this sentence on to your government and yours. The military, after all, we don't openly admit to such things.
Remember, we are like ghosts, everywhere in your homeland, our method is not frontal attack, but sabotage, our target is not your government agencies, but your civilians, we will use any means to destroy , such as detonating bombs in densely populated places, etc.
If your government and your army still insist on going their own way, well, we will accompany you to the end!"
Shibusawa Soichiro had almost collapsed in the car.
The young man looked at his watch: "It will start in one minute, and it will be the first day of the new year.
Because of the war and suffering imposed on us by you Japanese, countless of our compatriots lived in fear and hunger during the New Year.
Tonight is New Year's Eve, and we want to offer a generous gift to our compatriots in the heart of the enemy.
Tsk tsk, Tokyo really doesn’t have the atmosphere of Chinese New Year, and it’s normal, you Japanese don’t celebrate Chinese New Year anymore!” Since the Meiji Restoration, Japan has made every effort to “leave Asia and enter Europe”, abandoning the Lunar New Year and changing it to the Western New Year, which is New Year’s Day , so the Japanese do not celebrate the Spring Festival, only the New Year.
"Five, four, three, two..." The young man put down his watch and got out of the car with an initial smile, "Go!"
"Don't..." Soichiro Shibusawa lost all thoughts and fell into an abyss, but his voice was already drowned in the series of loud bangs of earth-shattering explosions.
Since the switch to the Gregorian calendar and the abolition of the lunar calendar in 1873, the citizens of Tokyo, who have not celebrated the Spring Festival for 65 years, once again felt the "warm atmosphere of the New Year" on this New Year's Eve.
Almost the whole city was shaken. Although those gas storages were located in the suburban junctions away from the urban area, the explosion of 10,000+ kiloliters of natural gas was no less than a few hundred tons of bombs. "Almost at the same time, more than a dozen groups The big fireball suddenly rose from the ground in different places around the city of Tokyo. It was so huge that it was creepy. The fire instantly made the night sky bright red. Roaring and sweeping in all directions, the windows and glass of nearby buildings were shattered together in the deafening sound waves, a small number of houses were knocked down and collapsed, and every big fireball was surrounded by lightning-like innumerable intricate "lines of fire". Like a burning spider web, the underground gas pipeline of the gas storage was detonated and ignited, causing a large-scale fire. The gas pipeline was like a fuse. After being ignited, countless tongues of flame danced wildly all the way Fleeing into residential areas, many residents were killed, injured, burned, and burned unexpectedly; the huge amount of gas in the gas storage made the gas storage itself a big bomb. The gas tanks exploded together, leaving no rubble and ashes, leaving only a huge crater and a huge column of smoke roaring into the sky, which quickly gathered into billowing black clouds that hovered over Tokyo. The layers were flushed red, and the scene looked terribly frightening.
The whole city shook, and the ground trembled for a full minute. The citizens fell into a huge panic amidst the unknown truth and the horrific scene. The regiment had to enter the city urgently to restore and maintain social order. Fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars drove towards the explosion site amidst the heart-piercing sirens. The chaos was extremely chaotic, everything couldn't see the original appearance, some people were covered in blood and shouted for help, and some people were motionless, and it was unknown whether they were in a coma or died. between.
...His Majesty the Emperor was also alarmed, he asked 'is there an earthquake?Why did I hear a huge explosion?Could it be an air strike by an enemy plane? '...There is no doubt that this is a very serious accident. The specific cause is not yet clear, but it is currently known that the accident was a series of explosions in the gas storage of Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd., which not only brought a lot of people to Tokyo. Casualties and property losses will inevitably lead to the complete bankruptcy of Shibusawa Trading Company.
..." from a special report by the Asahi Shimbun the next day.
In Tokyo City on New Year’s Eve, in addition to a series of big explosions in the gas storage of Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd., there were also many major "accidents".
The reservoirs of three waterworks in Tokyo were poisoned, five key tracks of the Tokyo railway network were destroyed, poison gas was released in three densely populated places in the Tokyo subway, and major fires broke out in four schools...caused extremely heavy casualties Casualties and extremely significant property damage.
It is conservatively estimated that the gas storage explosion caused more than 7000 casualties in Tokyo, the waterworks reservoir was poisoned and more than 800 citizens were poisoned to varying degrees, and the rails were damaged, causing six trains to derail. More than 1000 people were killed and injured, the subway poison gas incident caused more than 2000 deaths and injuries, the school fire caused more than [-] deaths and injuries, and so on.
For this reason, Emperor Hirohito had a very rare "long face furious", and fell into an unprecedented extreme shock. Soon, he knew the truth of the matter.
After learning the truth, Hirohito sat for a long time without speaking.
It was the "Special Operations Group" of the Japanese Branch of the Maritime Statistics Bureau who did this, and Jiang Weiguo was behind the scenes.
Jiang Weiguo has never changed his attitude towards Japan. He is ruthless, merciless, and will never give in. Yes, Japan is much stronger than China, but Jiang Weiguo always has a way to make the Japanese pay a heavy price. At this time, on the Nanjing battlefield , The Japanese army began to use Chinese civilians on a large scale as hostages and meat shields. Jiang Weiguo had no choice. He used this method to fight back and warn the Japanese.
To put it bluntly, Jiang Weiguo's move has turned him into "the number one terrorist tycoon in the [-]th century", because this is what terrorists do, but Jiang Weiguo is using terrorist means to deal with the Japanese, and the special operations group of the Japanese Branch of the Maritime Bureau is An out-and-out "terrorist organization".
Jiang Weiguo has always used unscrupulous means to deal with the Japanese, and his actions are the product of his thinking.
"You harmed my compatriots, and I will repay them in the same way!" Jiang Weiguo did not regret his move.
This move by the Bureau of Maritime Statistics is undoubtedly ground-breaking, and it has achieved great success. There are two reasons for its great success. One is that there are no real terrorism, terrorist organizations, or terrorists in the world at this time. The government naturally has no anti-terrorism awareness and anti-terrorism experience, and it is the first time that the Maritime Bureau has used this method, which caught the Japanese government off guard and unprepared;
In the original history, the military and central government of the national government had the ability to go to Japan to "wreak havoc". I don’t have the confidence to win this war, so I don’t dare to offend the Japanese completely. Doing this kind of thing will definitely offend and enrage the Japanese completely. Therefore, Chiang Kai-shek forbids the military and central government to do sabotage in Japan, and Chiang Kai-shek does not The concept of "terrorist attack" has greatly improved after the war between the United States and Japan, and it does not make much sense to carry out this kind of terrorist attack in Japan, so this kind of thing never happened during the Anti-Japanese War.
Jiang Weiguo is completely different. Not only is he advanced in thinking, but he also dares to do it, because he knows that when dealing with animals, forbearance and retreat will only make the animals worse.
Jiang Weiguo did not believe that Emperor Hirohito would rather have terrorist attacks in Japan every day and continue to connive at his army doing all kinds of evil in China.
"Stop killing Chinese civilians in China, or I will deal with you with large-scale terrorist attacks!" This is the signal Jiang Weiguo sent to Emperor Hirohito, the Japanese government, and the Japanese military.
Chapter 298 Furious City (8)
After the outbreak of the Battle of Nanjing, the night in Nanjing has never been quiet. Flares or signal flares rise and fall from time to time, rising slowly and falling slowly. Thunderbolts and bolts of lightning.
Under the flickering night, in a forest of Swallow Bridge between Qixia Mountain and Wulong Mountain, two groups of soldiers were pointing guns at each other.
The shells exploded in the distance, and the woods were shrouded in a strange and eerie silence.
The uniforms and equipment of these two groups of soldiers are exactly the same, and their identities are also the same. They are very special, even somewhat nondescript. They are neither Chinese soldiers nor Japanese soldiers, because they are neither Chinese nor Japanese. , and at the same time count as both Chinese and Japanese.
They are all members of the Nanjing Army's independent 417th special combat team, but at this time they are clearly divided into two camps.
The members of the 417th special forces team are all Taiwanese Japanese soldiers who were willing to surrender after being captured by the Japanese Taiwan brigade. Want to maintain their Chinese identity, while others want to become Japanese again.
There were more than 250 people at the scene, all of whom were old members of the 417th Special Forces. Among them, about 150 people stood beside the captain, Captain Lu Xinrong, and about 100 people stood beside the deputy captain, Lieutenant Gu Xun. Both sides held [-] The four crooked light machine guns in the team were pointing at each other, and two on each side were pointing at each other, and all the bullets were loaded.
Beads of sweat rolled down Lu Xinrong's forehead like soybeans, and he was burning with anxiety: "Lao Gu, do you know what you are doing? You are rebelling! Rebellion! Rebellion is a death penalty! Lao Gu, listen to my brother's advice and hurry up!" Rein in the precipice! I promise I won’t tell Jiang Weiguo about this, just pretend it never happened, let’s continue the task and continue as before, okay?”
Gu Xunzhi sneered, and he mocked: "Lu Xinrong, you are already a traitor, you betrayed the empire, you betrayed the emperor, and now you still tell us not to be traitors in a serious way? Is it ridiculous?"
"Gu Xunzhi!" Lu Xinrong couldn't bear to be angry, "What empire, what emperor? That is the Japanese empire, the Japanese emperor! We are Taiwanese! We are Chinese! You are right, we are indeed traitors, We are traitors to China, so we want to atone! We want to truly become a member of the Chinese army, become Chinese again, and fight to defeat the Japanese and recover Taiwan! What are you thinking? Be an upright China Isn't it better to be human than to be a second-class Japanese? Brother, I beg you, don't be like this!"
"Lu Xinrong, put your stuff away!" Gu Xunzhi sneered, "We don't want to be Chinese, we want to be Japanese, and we want to be Japanese! Not bad! Taiwanese are now second-class Japanese, so Taiwan People should try their best to be loyal to the emperor, serve the empire, and use practical actions to prove that Taiwanese are loyal to Japan. Only in this way can we become real Japanese! Don’t tell me the clichés of national righteousness, you are also Taiwanese, Don’t you know how rich and prosperous Taiwan was under the rule of the Japanese? What did Taiwan have under the rule of the Qing Dynasty? The Japanese came, and Taiwan had a modern civilization! Japan is Taiwan’s new home! Lu Xinrong, Do you think Jiang Weiguo will really treat us as his own family? We are just a bunch of cannon fodder in his eyes!"
"No!" Lu Xinrong argued, "I admit that I used to think the same as you, but no matter what, the blood of the Chinese is still flowing in our veins. This cannot be changed! Before, Taiwan was not ruled by The hope of recovery, but now, you have also seen that the Chinese army is not weak, and the Chinese army can also defeat the Japanese army. I believe that the Chinese army will become stronger and stronger, and finally recover Taiwan! Taiwan is destined to return to China This is a major historical trend! Also, you said that Jiang Weiguo just used us as cannon fodder, which is wrong.
Jiang Weiguo gave us everything we wanted, and our military pay was three times that of ordinary troops in the Nanjing Army. Tonight's mission is our chance to prove our loyalty!Lao Gu, clear your mind!The task is very clear. The Japanese army has just captured Longtan Town, but the Japanese army has not yet captured the Wulong Mountain Fortress. A large number of brothers from the 99rd Brigade of the 3th Division are still fighting on Wulong Mountain. Our task tonight is to raid and besiege Wulong Mountain The brigade headquarters of the 5th Brigade of the 9th Division of the Japanese Army, as long as the brigade headquarters of the 9th Brigade is destroyed, the reinforcements of the 99th Division can launch a counterattack.
The matter is of great importance, how can you rebel against the water at a critical moment? "
"We must stop!" Gu Xunzhi said coldly, "Assault on the brigade headquarters of the 9th Brigade, our hands will really be stained with the blood of the imperial army! It will not be cleaned completely! If you want to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, there is no chance! Lu Xinrong, you are going to serve Jiang Weiguo and the Chinese people as a lackey, go yourself! We don’t want to! We were born under the banner of the sun, Japan is our country, the emperor is our leader, we Brothers!" He looked at the team members around Lu Xinrong who were unwilling to participate in the betrayal, "This is your last chance! The front is the imperial army's control area! You really follow Lu Xinrong raided the imperial army, and there is no turning back! Come here quickly! Join us to join the imperial army again! Don’t forget, we are Japanese! We cannot betray the empire and the emperor!”
Lu Xinrong really wanted to kill Gu Xunzhi and other traitors, but he had nothing to do, because the number of the two sides was not much different, and they both had machine guns. If there was a real fight, it would be [-]% the end of both, so Gu Xunzhi was so confident.
Lu Xinrong looked at the players around him who chose to be Chinese, and found that the eyes of 30 to [-] of them were a little shaken.
"Forget it!" Lu Xinrong sighed, "It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. If you want to go back with Gu Xunzhi, go! I won't stop you!" Feeling physically and mentally exhausted, he sat on the ground directly He didn't expect that nearly half of the people in his team were half-hearted.
In fact, this is also very normal. The Japanese have implemented "imperial education" in Taiwan for decades, and have already brainwashed many young Taiwanese born under the banner of the sun. How could it be possible to wake up all of a sudden.
On that day, Jiang Weiguo's generous speech convinced many people, but there were still many people who were just verbally dissatisfied and forced to surrender on the surface, but still wanted to go back in their hearts.
"Captain, everyone has their own aspirations, I'm sorry!" A member of the team bowed to Lu Xinrong guiltily, following Japanese etiquette, "Actually, I still want to go back.
I am proud to be in the imperial army, and I don't want to be a traitor to the imperial army!"
Lu Xinrong looked at the team member with a wry smile: "Ah Hui, don't regret it..."
"Captain, I don't regret it!" After speaking, the team member named Ah Hui walked from Lu Xinrong to Gu Xunzhi.
Within a few minutes, more than 20 people walked from Lu Xinrong to Gu Xunzhi. Some hesitated for a while and then changed their positions, while others did not hesitate.
"Everyone has his own aspirations!" Lu Xinrong stood up from the ground, and looked at Gu Xunzhi's team members who planned to become Japanese again with a cold gaze, "Let's go! From now on, we will be happy for ourselves, and each will live in peace! "
