Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

However, when Commander Matsui of the 4th Division learned from other channels that the incoming commander Yantian did not come to Taiyuan by special car as originally planned, but instead quietly set off two days in advance, preparing to catch everyone off guard.

It just happened that the train that Yantian was on was suddenly attacked the night before, and Lieutenant General Yantian disappeared, neither alive nor dead.

And that night, the attackers also exchanged fire with the railway guards, and both sides used the same weapons, which is very suspicious.

After analyzing all the information, Division Commander Matsui sighed and said, "It seems that Shinozuka Yoshio is a ruthless person. For the sake of his own power and status, he really can do such a thing."

"It's just that the work was done a little roughly. You should have used the guerrillas' weapons and equipment, so that the play could be made real, and by the way, you could put all the blame on the guerrillas, and then there would be no fault to find."

"The troops we are sending out now are all equipped with Japanese weapons. What do you think the people above us will think? Isn't this giving them a handle?"

But he turned around and thought about it again, and found that this was the only reasonable way. You know, when a lieutenant general goes on a long journey, his guards must be strong, at least an elite squadron is required.

Especially for a powerful legion commander like Yantian, all his guards are carefully selected and their combat effectiveness is extremely amazing.

Moreover, there are escort troops on the railway. If we use the guerrillas' shabby weapons, we probably won't be able to defeat them. If we are caught on the spot, it will be a lot of fun.

Only Yoshio Shinozuka's personal guards and Yamamoto's special forces had this strength. Moreover, from the analysis of the on-site investigation, the attackers used a large number of submachine guns, which made Yantian's guards unable to fight back at a short range. This also indirectly confirmed that an extremely special force participated in the attack, with a number of about a hundred people. Everything matched up.

At first, Division Commander Matsui had suspected that it might be the work of the mysterious force in Tianjin, but he quickly ruled out this suspicion. The main reason was that those mysterious people were good at long-range sniping, which was completely different from this kind of close-range raid.

Long-range assassination only requires a sniper with good marksmanship and a good sniper rifle to complete the task, but this time it is different. Close combat and annihilation of an entire escort squadron is not something that ordinary people can do.

In his impression, only Yamamoto Ikki's special forces team could barely reach that level. After all, they were taught by Hans Cat, who was currently the top military force on Blue Star, and the students he taught also had outstanding qualities.

Moreover, Lieutenant General Yantian changed his itinerary at the last minute, which was top secret. If the information had not been leaked by one of his own people, it would have been impossible for them to meet by such a coincidence.

The most crucial thing is that the battle did not take place in Shanxi Province, which means that all responsibility can be shifted away and no one can say anything.

At this time, he received a call from Yoshio Shinozuka, asking him to go to the headquarters to discuss something. He knew what it was about without having to guess.

At the entrance of the headquarters, Division Commander Matsui also met Yamamoto Ikki who had come from somewhere else. This time he took the initiative to greet him:

"Yamamoto-kun, what are you busy with recently? If there is anything you need cooperation from our 4th Division, just tell us. We will cooperate unconditionally. If my subordinates cause trouble for your special forces, just tell me directly and I will deal with them."

The Yamamoto Ikki in front of him is a ruthless man. A lieutenant general can be killed at will. Such a person should only be made friends with, not offended.

When it comes to knowing the current affairs, their Fourth Division is the best at it. As an old Chinese saying goes, "Those with bare feet are not afraid of those who wear shoes."

For many things, it is best to make money through harmony. There is no need to offend others and bring yourself unnecessary trouble.

Faced with this situation, Yamamoto Kazuki was flattered and even doubted whether he had heard it wrongly.

You have to know that Matsui is a lieutenant general and a division commander, and also the commander of a permanent division. His weight ranks among the top ten among all division commanders.

However, special operations have always been difficult to promote. The biggest obstacle is the powerful division commanders in the army. If Division Commander Matsui stands on his side, he can completely suppress the different opinions of other divisions by relying on the seniority of the 4th Division.

Thinking of the bright future, the usually serious Yamamoto Ikki rarely smiled, took the initiative to exchange a few words with the division commander Matsui, and then entered the First Army Headquarters together.

When Yoshio Shinozuka saw the two men coming, he quickly stood up and greeted them. These two men were his great benefactors, and this had solved a huge problem for him.

Just now, the headquarters sent him an urgent telegram, asking him to continue to serve as the commander of the First Army, not to rush to hand over his work, and to guard the key areas of Shanxi Province.

As for the exact reason, the telegram did not say. After all, judging from the current situation, the person who benefited the most from Yantian's disappearance was Yoshio Shinozuka, and he had great motivation and ability to do such a thing.

Yoshio Shinozuka was not a person who just sat there for the job. He also had his own sources of information. Considering that Yantian did not show up at the train station during the day, it was easy for him to guess what had happened.

At this time, he was extremely impressed with the actions of his subordinate Yamamoto Ikki. His execution ability was really amazing, and even he kept it secret. He was really a considerate and good subordinate.

This is also what makes him most satisfied. Although he is the biggest beneficiary of this matter, he did not participate in the whole process. Even if someone from above was sent to investigate, he would not be worried at all.

When he thought of this, he was extremely happy, and even his tone of voice became much gentler:

"Matsui-kun, Yamamoto-kun, according to the order of the headquarters, since Lieutenant General Yantian disappeared on the way to Jin Province, I don't need to hand over my work for the time being. Everything remains the same."

Yamamoto Kazuki: As expected of you, Commander, this move is a decisive blow. This has completely solved the hidden danger.

Division Commander Matsui: No wonder he can be a lieutenant general commander, while I am only a lieutenant general division commander. This kind of scheming and cunning is worth learning from. I just want to kill someone with a borrowed knife, but he is just going to kill directly. I don't know if he has done the finishing work well. If it is found out later, it will be a troublesome thing.

After he finished speaking, Shinozuka Yoshio glanced at Yamamoto Ikki and praised him: "Well done!"

After hearing this, Division Commander Matsui showed an expression of "as expected". Now the matter was confirmed that it was indeed these two guys who conspired to do it.

But Yamamoto Ikki was confused after hearing this. He didn't do anything, so why did the commander praise him for doing a good job? This matter must be clarified.
