Bright Sword: An eight-year-old boy led a group to fight the Japanese invaders

"It's just what you think. Actually, this is not news. It's just that the Japanese blockade is quite strict, and we are far away from the Northeast.

Besides, there are also Japanese research laboratories inside the Great Wall, but they are all relatively hidden. When we become stronger in the future, we will destroy all of these research institutes!"

Wang Ye said with gritted teeth.

The chief of staff looked at the list in his hand, then looked at Wang Ye. He couldn't understand how he found and compiled such a secret list.

Not to mention the White Bears, even the Japanese themselves couldn't figure it all out, because there were too many counties, prisoner-of-war camps, and secret bases in the occupied areas.

The devils couldn't possibly have the energy to count how many comrades there were in the Eighth Route Army.

"Comrade Wang Ye, I don't care how you got this list, but I beg you to rescue them. It's not easy for them to survive until now!"

"Don't worry, Commander. I will do my best to rescue as many people as possible!"

Takeuchi Ichiro, who had just left Pingxian, sent a telegram to the Taiyuan headquarters from his car.

After receiving the telegram, Yoshio Yuzuka flew into a rage in his office. The money and weapons were fine.

The Japanese invaders fought from the Northeast to North China and then to Central China. They seized a lot of money. A mere 200 million was not a big deal. The First Army Headquarters could take it out.

As for the weapons and equipment of the two Class A reorganized divisions, it was easy to solve the problem. The Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was badly beaten by the Japanese devils, and they could piece together the various weapons captured.

But these 1953 people were not easy to deal with, because they were scattered in the hands of various garrisons across the country, and some of them were still in the hands of the Kwantung Army.

The First Army was very powerful, but not as powerful as the Kwantung Army. Not to mention Yoshio Yuzuka, even the commander of the North China Expeditionary Army, Gen Yamasugi, was no match for the Kwantung Army.

Yoshio Yuzuka's predecessor, the former commander of the First Army, Michiharu Umezu, is now the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army.

Before Meizu Michiharu took office, the Kwantung Army had only 30 troops. After he took office, the army continued to expand, and now the Kwantung Army has nearly 100 million troops.

And how many people are there in the First Army? 11!

How could Umezu Michiharu possibly give face to Yuzuka Yoshio?

Half an hour later, Yuzuka Yoshio walked out of the office under the terrified gaze of the staff officer.

In the conference room, Yoshio Yuzuka looked at the officer from the First Army Headquarters and said,

"The negotiations for the independent brigade have concluded, and Ichiro Takeuchi and his men are returning!

However, our deputy chief of staff, Major General Matsumoto Takeshi, was arrested by the independent brigade as a spy.

Everyone, take a good look at this. How can we make the Tubalu willingly hand over the evidence to us? Including Major General Matsumoto Takeshi!"

Tanaka Yoshinori picked up the telegram first, and only passed it to the person behind him after he finished reading it.

"Commander, the first two conditions in the telegram are easy to agree on. We can get them done if we work together.

But we have no way to deal with the prisoners of war and the captured underground party members. Why don't we contact General Yamasugimoto? If that doesn't work, let him contact the military?"

Yoshio Yuzuka said gloomily, "Tanaka-kun, I don't think it's necessary. The Tubalu need 1953 people. We just need to gather the number.

How do they know who they are? Can't they find these people in the villages around Taiyuan?"

Tanaka Yoshinori pointed to the last line of the telegram and said, "Commander, the Tubalu have sent us the list. If we cannot give them the names according to the list,

The Tubalu would take the evidence abroad and show the Westerners how miserable we were.

This will have a very negative impact on our international reputation. Once our allies waver, the consequences will be very unfavorable to us!"

Yuzuka Yoshio was just venting his anger in the office and didn't even finish reading the telegram. He didn't expect that the Tubalu would be prepared for this move.

He stood up, grabbed the telegram, read it carefully, and angrily cursed, "Takeuchi Ichiro is such a fool. He actually negotiated like this. When he comes back, I will definitely send him to a military court!"

Tanaka Yoshinori thought disdainfully that Takeuchi Ichiro was just negotiating with the colonel, and even if he was brought to the military court, what big deal would that be?

Instead, it was Yoshio Tsukasa, the commander of the First Army, whose division was annihilated, which posed a serious obstacle to the imperial plan, who should be court-martialed.

"Commander, the Tubalu only gave us five days. According to the intelligence we received, the negotiations with the National Government have already started.

If we can’t get all the evidence before them, the consequences will be disastrous!”

Tanaka Yoshinori's words made Yuzuka Yoshio stunned for a moment, then he stood up and ran to his office.

After the 20th Division was destroyed, Yoshio Yuzuka would leave the First Army and return to the mainland to be punished. Even if he was transferred to the reserve, at least he would not be hurt too much.

If this incident affects the empire's reputation and offensive plans, he might really have to go to a military court.

"Commander, the conditions of the Tubalu are very harsh. We have no way to complete them, so please help us!"

Shan Shanyuan felt a headache after hanging up the phone. Although he was a general and the commander of the North China Expeditionary Army, he did not have much face in front of the Kwantung Army.

Although when he was the Minister of the Army, Meizu Michiharu, as the Vice Minister of the Army, had cooperated with him a lot,

However, after the war with China fell into a quagmire, the two men resigned one after another, and Umezu Michiharu was very resentful of Yamasugi Moto.

Moreover, it is well known that the Kwantung Army was xenophobic. After Meizu Michiharu took office, the army was greatly expanded, and the army expanded nearly three times. With more people and more guns, of course, the backbone was strong.

Although they are all generals, there are differences among generals. Meizu Michiharu will not give him face.

It seems that the only way is to contact the Army Headquarters and ask the Army Headquarters or the Cabinet to give the order.

Far away in the homeland, the Japanese Army Minister Itachi and Vice Minister Tojo looked at each other in bewilderment at the telegram sent back by Yamasugi Moto.

Tojo couldn't help but say, "General Yamasugi always loses battles in the war against China. I am very disappointed with him!"

Banheng put the telegram down and rubbed his temple, saying distressedly, "Who could have thought that a small guerrilla force of the Tubalu would cause such consequences to the empire?

The destruction of the 20th Division had a huge impact on the image of the Imperial Army. Once exposed, the morale of the Imperial Army would inevitably decline.

The Nationalist government has been wavering between surrender and resistance for some time now, and this incident will certainly give them unlimited confidence.

The war in China will become more intense and cruel. The imperial conscription age has been lowered to 17 years old, and our war potential is declining rapidly. "

Tojo knew all this, and he went on to say, "If Western countries knew about the 20th Division, it would be difficult to get loans from them in the future.

Mr. Banheng, you are the Minister of the Army. I hope to send a telegram to Meijin Meiji in your name and my name, asking him to cooperate with the First Army and get all the evidence!"
