Anti-Japanese War, weapons designer at Fengtian Arsenal

The punitive army completely ignored the armistice agreement and fired at the Japanese positions across the Huangpu River from time to time. The Japanese did not dare to fight back with artillery.

The punitive army is an illegal armed force and can do whatever it wants. The Japanese devils are regular national armed forces. If they dare to fire, the 19th Route Army will have an excuse to tear up the armistice agreement.

The Japanese's command system has not been rebuilt yet and reinforcements have not arrived, so how can they initiate a war? They can only postpone their positions and intend to swallow their anger.

The Japanese felt aggrieved. Since the war began, they had always taken advantage of the Chinese army. How come the situation was reversed on the Punishment Army's side?

The Japanese didn't know yet that the Punishment Army was preparing for something even more outrageous. The Punishment Army's river and sea defenses had been almost repaired these days. Li Qinwu planned to take the initiative and push back to the Japanese line, but before the action, an interesting thing happened.

Previously, the big machine boss burned down the British industrial telegraph office, and now the British are coming after him.

A British consulate official named Edmund came to hold the Punitive Forces accountable and demanded that they compensate for the losses of the telegraph office. The leaders of this group of British were still people from the Tax Police Corps.

The tax police corps held a grudge against the Punishment Army. They had led the devils into the Punishment Army's position before, and they didn't think about whether they could let the enemy enter the position. The Punishment Army only broke the legs of the two leading officers because they were their own people.

The Tax Police felt that this was too disrespectful to them, so they were happy to lead the British to cause trouble for the Punishment Army.

However, the people of the Tax Police Corps did not dare to set foot on the positions of the Punitive Army anymore. They found an intact room in the Punitive Army's urban defense zone and used it as a venue for talks between the British and the Punishment Army.

Li Qinwu was curious about how the British guy planned to hold them accountable, so he sent Li Liangwei, who had nothing to do, to negotiate.

In order to show off, Li Liangwei brought a team of fully armed heavy grenadiers. When he arrived at the location, he glanced at a team of dark-faced Indian soldiers at the door. It was obvious that the British had arrived first.

Li Liangwei pushed the door and walked into the room. The Englishman Edmund was sitting behind the table with red wine and wine glasses on it.

Li Liangwei thought that this guy was really good at pretending, he even drank during the negotiation.

Old Ansa Edmund saw that the newcomers were wearing camouflage uniforms and knew that they were from the Punitive Forces. He put down his wine glass, slammed the table and cursed, "Damn Punitive Forces, do you know what you have done? The telegraph office is the property of the British Empire, and there are many precious equipments in it. You bastards actually dared to set fire to the telegraph office! You..."

He suddenly stopped talking, and two heavily armed grenadiers holding black shields followed Li Liangwei into the conference room. The heavy ceramic-soled military boots, under the blessing of their huge weight, made a heavy sound when stepping on the ground, which made Edmund feel creepy.

Li Liangwei pulled out a chair and sat down, glancing at Lao Angsa sitting opposite him.

"Come on, tell us your dream and show us your VCR!"

Edmund didn't listen to what Li Liangwei said. His eyes were on the two black-armored giants. He waited until Li Liangwei slammed the table impatiently before he swallowed and looked away.

He was a little confused, but then he remembered the powerful country behind him and felt confident again. They were just a few giants, nothing in front of an industrial power.

People start to get cocky when they have confidence. Edmund said, "The Shanghai Telegraph Office is the legal property of the British Empire. Your punitive forces used fire to destroy the telegraph office during the battle, resulting in the destruction of precious telegraph equipment. You must pay compensation!"

Li Liangwei looked at the other person with a smile.

"Oh? How much compensation do you want?"

He asked Da Jiba about the situation at that time. The British had moved the equipment in the telegraph office before the war. His punitive army only burned down an empty building, and it was the Japanese who entered first. Why did they come to my punitive army instead of the Japanese? He wanted to see how the British were going to ask for a high price.

Edmund had obviously prepared something in advance. He stretched out a finger and said, "1 million oceans. You, the Punishment Army, only need to pay 1000 million oceans to eliminate the anger of the British Empire. Otherwise..."

Li Liangwei couldn't help laughing, interrupting Edmund's next words.

Seeing him like this, Edmund slammed the table angrily.

"What's so funny about this! Don't you know it's rude to interrupt others? You are such an uneducated guy!"

Li Liangwei laughed even louder, until tears and snot came out of his eyes. He said with a choked breath, "Haha, it's been thousands of years, and you bastards haven't changed at all. You are born robbers. You want to rob people as soon as you get a reason, right? I really don't accept being called rude by you robbers!"

The curse was a bit filthy, and Edmund could not sit still. He slammed the table and stood up, pointing at Li Liangwei and yelling: "You damn yellow monkey! Barbarian! Do you know what the consequences are of angering the British Empire's diplomatic officials?"

"Fuck! I want to see what the consequences are!!"

Li Liangwei jumped up on the spot, picked up the red wine bottle on the table, and smashed it on the other person's head. With a bang, the bottle exploded. Edmund fell to the ground with a scream, covering his head and screaming.

Two officers from the Tax Police Corps and a squad of Indian patrolmen who were waiting outside the door came over upon hearing the noise. They gasped when they saw Edmund being shot in the head.

The officers of the Tax Police Corps thought that the Punitive Forces were too damn arrogant. They dared to beat up people from the British Consulate. Did they never consider the consequences of their actions?

The Indian patrolmen had a much simpler idea. When they saw their master being beaten, they raised their British Type 77 rifles, pointed them at Li Liangwei and started shooting.

The two heavily armed grenadiers following behind Li Liangwei reacted immediately. They covered Li Liangwei with large shields, then pulled out the machetes inserted in the shields and walked towards the Indian patrolmen like taking a walk. After a burst of screams and flying blood and flesh, a squad of Indian patrolmen fell to the ground with their bodies torn into pieces.

The two tax police officers were so scared that they almost peed their pants. These giants could use machetes to chop from the head to the crotch and split the person in half with one blow. Is this the power that a normal person should have?

They swore never to provoke the Punishment Army again, and ran away without caring whether Edmund was dead or alive.

Of course Edmund was not dead. He was covering his head and screaming. Li Liangwei hit him on the head with a wine bottle, leaving a big bump and making him dizzy, but he still did not forget to threaten.

"You are finished! How dare you assault a diplomat of the British Empire!

You will soon know the wrath of the British Empire. Our warships parked on the shore will bombard you. Wait for death!"

At that time, Britain had a destroyer and a small gunboat on the Huangpu River. The British originally wanted to withdraw these warships back to their homeland, but the Japanese started the war, and the British felt it necessary to retain a considerable military force in the Far East, so they postponed the withdrawal of the warships.

Not to mention the small gunboat, that destroyer still has some combat capability.

Li Liangwei kicked Edmund in the chin, knocking out several of his teeth. He stomped on Edmund's chest and cursed: "If your warship dares to fire at us, my Punishment Army's heavy artillery will sink it! If you don't believe me, try it!"

Edmund was beaten up, and he looked at Li Liangwei with a timid look on his face.

"You don't dare! You have already gone to war with Japan and are provoking the British Empire. Do you know what the consequences will be?"

Li Liangwei shrugged indifferently.

"What can you do with the Punitive Forces? We don't have any territory, and we are not the army of the Nationalist government. Who are you going to fight?

At worst, you can go to war with the Republic of China, and give my Punishment Army the opportunity to become a noble. When that happens, my Punishment Army will occupy a few inland provinces, and your Ansa gang's warships will not be able to reach the land."

Li Liangwei used these words to emphasize that the Punitive Army was not directly under the Nationalist Government. They were not even local warlords. The Nationalist Government defined them as illegal armed forces. If you British dare to fire, you can bet whether our Punishment Army dares to fight back.

Edmund remained silent. Li Liangwei knew that this fellow understood what he meant, so he ordered the heavy grenadiers to grab him by the collar and throw him out of the house, telling him to get out.

As soon as Edmund was thrown out of the door, he fell into a pile of broken bodies. He looked and saw that it was the Indian governor he brought with him. The guy was so scared that he howled and ran away like crazy.
