Chapter 197 Robbery in the French Concession

In the early stage of the January 28 Incident, the troops attacking Shanghai were mainly the Japanese Navy, and the ground combat forces were mainly the Marine Corps. The uniforms of the Marine Corps were different from those of the Japanese Army.

The Japanese Marine Corps is equipped with the Type 01 Sakura helmet, which has a brim on the front and a cherry blossom-shaped iron plate on the top.

Secondly, the uniform is grey with white leggings on the legs.

Finally, the Japanese Marines like to tie two pieces of white cloth crosswise on their chests, which are connected to the backpacks on their backs. Of course, there are also those who only tie one piece.

The Japanese Marine Corps is also equipped with a small number of MP18 submachine guns, which can only be equipped by squad officers and the number is pitifully small.

In order to divert the blame, Li Qinwu had people rummaging around on the front battlefield for a long time before they managed to find a squadron of Marines' uniform.

However, the bullet holes on these uniforms were too obvious and there were too many blood stains. Li Qinwu urgently opened a portal and took these tattered clothes back to the clothing factory in Henan to have them washed by machine.

After the blood was washed off, the workers sewed up the bullet holes with gray-blue patches. At dark, these patches were almost invisible.

Afterwards, Li Qinwu opened another portal and sent the uniforms to the island space. Taking advantage of the hot and humid climate of the island space, he set up several industrial-grade fans to blow at the uniforms. In less than an hour, all 180 cotton uniforms were dried.

为了提高这次祸水东引的成功率,李秦武特意捏了180个身高在1米65到1米7的分身,以后他们就是专职鬼子演员了。

This group of clones trotted out of the alley, walked naturally to the International Settlement to patrol, and then headed straight for the French-occupied Concession.

The Shanghai Concession was established on November 1845, 11, when Gong Mujiu, the military governor of Susongtai of the Qing government, and the British Consul Balfour jointly promulgated the Shanghai Land Regulations. The United States, France and other countries successively established concessions in Shanghai, which gradually expanded and merged to become the current public concession.

Japan did not have any concessions in Shanghai, but it invested heavily in the International Settlement, and Japanese bridges were mainly concentrated in the northeast of the International Settlement, so Japan had actual control areas in the concessions.

Although the International Settlement has the word "public" in its name, people from different countries actually have their own main gathering points. Generally speaking, the army will only defend the borders of the concession. It is quite rude to send troops into the main activity areas of other countries without permission.

"The enemy is here! Capture him!"

The clone pretending to be the Japanese Marine Corps ran quickly and, in the confused eyes of the French patrol, rushed directly into the street where the French were mainly active.

"Alas! This is the French Concession Area, the Japanese troops cannot enter!"

The French patrolman became anxious and wanted to stop them, but more than 180 clones rushed in, leaving him no chance to stop them.

"The enemy ran into the store, catch him!"

The leading clone shouted in Japanese and rushed directly into a store. He kicked the door open and the rest of the people followed him and rushed into the store.

The French policeman was so shocked when he saw this that he shouted to his team members, "Quick! Call the army over! These Japanese soldiers are crazy and are robbing our stores!"

The clones rushed into a watch shop. The glass cabinets were full of watches, and they were the kind that you could tell were very expensive just by looking at their appearance.

Even though the clones just wanted to stir up trouble among the great powers, now when they see these watches, they are really tempted!

The two clones looked at each other, picked up the gun butt frame and smashed it against the glass cabinet. They picked up a watch and stroked the patterns on it in admiration.

The noise they made by smashing the glass was so loud that the watch shop owner who was sleeping upstairs heard it. He came downstairs with a double-barreled shotgun and saw a group of Smurfs picking mushrooms in his shop. He immediately roared in anger.

"Oh my God, Louis XVI! What are you doing, you blue dwarfs! Get your dirty hands off my watch! Otherwise, I promise to send you to the guillotine!!"

All the clones looked at the boss in unison, and at the same time they felt panic in their hearts. Then they cursed in their hearts, "What panic? The little devil Ci has already paid the price."

"Bagaya road!"

One of the clones glared.

"Waaliwaliwa meowneega!"

The owner of the watch shop was confused. What the hell was that? He didn't understand Japanese, but when he saw a Japanese soldier wearing five watches on his arm, his face turned red.

"You bandits! Put down your watches and get out of my shop right now! Or I'll put you on the grill that burned Jeanne d'Arc!"

As he said this, he broke off the hammer of the shotgun and made the final move to fire it, but he was only halfway through the action when one of his clones shouted, "He's going to attack the warriors of the empire, kill the dick!"

The clones quickly raised their guns and opened fire. More than 40 people in the store emptied their guns. The watch shop owner was hit by more than 200 rifle bullets and his entire body was smashed to pieces.

Since the gun was fired, everyone stopped pretending and kindly helped the boss clear out all the watches in the store.

Several clones walked out of the watch shop with smiles on their faces, planning to go shopping at the next store. However, just as they walked out of the door, they were surrounded by a company of French soldiers.

A French major looked at the Japanese who had just come out of their shop with a gloomy face and directly ordered the soldiers to raise their guns.

The clones were surrounded by people with guns, but they did not panic. They also raised their guns to confront the other side.

The French major was furious. These bandits dared to confront him with guns. He cursed in Japanese: "You damn bandits! How dare you rob the property of French citizens! Do you want to go to war with France?"

The clones said in their minds, yes, yes, and the clone with the rank of captain stepped forward and pointed a Nambu 14 pistol at the French major.

"Baka! We just saw the gangsters who attacked the Imperial Japanese soldiers run into this store, so we came here to track them down!"

The French major raised his eyelids and pointed at the watches on the bayonets of several Japanese soldiers.

"Is this how you tracked it down?"

The squadron leader's clone smiled awkwardly.

"Hey~ We paid!"

The French major was so angry that he was shaking all over. Damn it! Do these people think they are stupid? Who can't see that these Japanese soldiers are out of discipline and are greedy for money! Damn, the little Japanese are so bold that they dare to rob a French store.

He was about to order the other party to put down the gun when suddenly, a scream came from the watch shop behind him and a woman leaned against the door of the watch shop and cried.

"Oh my god Napoleon! They killed my husband! You damn blue goblins!"

The French major was stunned. Are these Japanese crazy? How dare they kill people indiscriminately?

Before he could react, he suddenly saw the captain opposite him pulling the trigger. With a bang, a gunshot rang out. The French major trembled all over and looked at the bullet in the chest in disbelief.

"How dare they?"

This thought flashed through the French major's mind, and then he fell to the ground.

"Kill these white pigs!"

The captain shouted and the Japanese soldiers immediately opened fire. The French army thought it was just an ordinary confrontation and were not prepared to open fire at all. There was no way they could defeat the Japanese soldiers with ulterior motives. After a few minutes of fighting, all the French soldiers were killed or wounded.
