"Let's analyze this. What's causing Commander Yamamoto the most trouble right now is probably Zhao Tiezhu's Third Regiment. After these people disappeared, there should be two directions. One direction is targeting Zhao Tiezhu's Third Regiment, and the other direction is unknown where they retreated to, which should also be a Japanese base."

Li Shaoyi wrote both directions on the blackboard and conducted analysis when it was time to do so.

"From these two directions, the retreating force that poses a threat to us is Zhao Tiezhu's Third Regiment. They are now north of Tianjin City and have entered combat mode, but there are no suitable landing sites nearby. They must have withdrawn."

The chief of staff considered several places. Perhaps the Japanese army would land here, but if they landed on such a wild beach, forget about heavy weapons. After all the light weapons were soaked in sea water, they would be in trouble.

"That's a bit too arbitrary. I think it would be better if Zhao Tiezhu led the troops to the edge of Tianjin City, or to the original location, the edge of the Zizhulin Concession."

Li Shaoyi felt that guessing all day long was not a solution, so he simply let Zhao Tiezhu stay close to the Zizhulin Concession. If these people appear from other places, we will aim our artillery at the Zizhulin Concession, especially the direction of the Japanese military camp. If you attack, I will first destroy the Japanese in the concession and see who will gain the upper hand.

"I'm afraid European and American countries will be dissatisfied."

The reason why European and American countries are now imposing sanctions on Japan is that they do not want the war to spread to the Zizhulin Concession. If Zhao Tiezhu did this, European and American countries would indeed oppose it.

"If they want to impose sanctions, then let them. What do we need from them now? Others are afraid of their arms embargo and other things, but we don't buy anything from them. Even if they issued an arms embargo, it would only apply to Tianjin. Will the merchants in the south listen to them?"

Li Shaoyi smiled nonchalantly, and Chief of Staff Cui thought about it and realized that it was the same.

"Also, we can't act recklessly. Let Wang Shuhai go meet with all the bigwigs in the concession and give them gifts. I'll assure them that we're only targeting the Japanese, and even if something happens in the future, we won't harm them in the slightest."

Li Shaoyi did not want to completely break off relations with these foreigners. Although he disliked them, after understanding the local economic situation, he realized that foreign trade economy occupied a very important position in the local area. Once he broke off relations with these people, the common people would be the ones who suffered in the end.

"Given the current attitudes of European and American countries towards Japan, our chances of success this time are relatively high."

The chief of staff also agreed with this idea. Li Shaoyi immediately called Wang Shuhai and asked him to go to Tianjin.

As for Zhao Tiezhu, after receiving the order from Li Shaoyi, he immediately asked his brothers to get on the car and head south. They had just received six million oceans from Commander Yamamoto and then retreated to the north. But we received the order from the headquarters, so we had no psychological burden to retreat. In addition, we had to add some more ingredients.

Commander Yamamoto had just breathed a sigh of relief after solving the problem of the Japanese army in the port, but someone came to report immediately that Zhao Tiezhu's army had returned overnight and was right at the place where they were originally stationed, with their guns pointing at our military camp.

"These damn bastards, don't they have any sense of contract?"

Commander Yamamoto said viciously that his men had found the agreement, which had Zhao Tiezhu's signature on it.

"I'll go negotiate with them immediately."

Chief of Staff Nakamura took the agreement and left the office as quickly as possible. Everyone could see that Commander Yamamoto was on the verge of a rage.

The original plan was to let the troops in the port land in Caofeidian and then launch a surprise attack on Zhao Tiezhu's army. If the effect was good, the Japanese troops in the concession would also go up and start a fire, but I didn't expect these bastards to get to the edge of the concession again.

It was clear that the sneak attack tactic would not work. Once the Japanese army launched a sneak attack on them, these people would enter the Zizhulin Concession unscrupulously, and the consequences at that time would be unimaginable.

Chief of Staff Nakamura came over with dozens of his guards in six three-wheeled vehicles.

"Our regimental commander has returned to Peking on official business. There are no officers here. Please go back."

At the cordon of the military camp, the soldier said expressionlessly, "It doesn't matter whether you are the chief of staff or not. Our commander said this anyway. If you dare to take a step forward, don't blame us for being rude. The two machine guns behind us are loaded with bullets. If you want to try, just go forward. There are not a few Japanese who died in our hands anyway. One more or one less won't make any difference."

"You are violating the agreement. Your 72nd Brigade has no credibility at all. You just signed an agreement with our commander, and now you are violating it. Do you know the consequences of your actions?"

After hearing the guard's words, Chief of Staff Nakamura was furious and jumped up at the gate of the military camp like a monkey with the agreement in his hand.

"Stay back. I don't care what you say, stay outside the yellow line. If you come in, don't blame me for not recognizing you."

The guard took out the gun from his back, loaded the gun in front of Chief of Staff Nakamura, and aimed at Chief of Staff Nakamura.

After all, you are the chief of staff of the North China Garrison Army. You are just a small soldier in the 72nd Brigade, yet you are so powerful now.

Chief of Staff Nakamura's face was filled with anger. He pointed his finger at the soldier and could not utter the rest of the words. At this moment, he really did not dare to move forward. After all, the people of the 72nd Brigade killed people without blinking an eye, especially when facing the Japanese. They didn't care whether you were a soldier or chief of staff. If you crossed the line they drew, they would talk to you with bullets.

"Get out of the way, a good dog doesn't block the road. What's going on?"

Just when Chief of Staff Nakamura was about to faint from anger, the sound of cars roaring came from the left. Looking from the Chief of Staff's position, there was no end in sight, and there must be at least a hundred cars.

Of course, it was not the cars that attracted Chief of Staff Nakamura's attention, but the fact that there was a cannon hanging on the back of each car.

German 105mm howitzer...

Dozens of doors!!!

When he fought with Zhao Tiezhu before, he didn't have such artillery under his command. Is this new one from Peking?
