Xu Rui's telegram arrived very timely. With Xu Rui's comfort, Wang Husheng and other senior officials in the Songhu Division finally calmed down and did not take rash actions. 』．』ｍ
Otherwise, I really don’t know what will happen. People are scary, and sometimes they can really scare people to death.
Let's talk about Xu Rui later. After finding a secret place to send the telegram to his family, he immediately drove to Liang Mansion. Itagaki Seishiro was still at Liang Mansion, so it was okay not to go.
It was already evening and there were not many pedestrians on the street, so the car was moving very quickly.
In less than half an hour, the Mercedes-Benz appeared outside the large iron gate of Liang Mansion.
All the servants in Liang Mansion knew that luxurious Mercedes-Benz. It drove over from a distance. The servants quickly stepped forward and pushed the big iron door open. Before the big iron door could be fully opened, the Mercedes-Benz roared in. Then he stopped sideways on the lawn in the yard with a crunch. As a dandy, he wanted such an arrogant style.
Then the car door opened, Xu Rui got out of the car with the fish basket, and shouted as he walked: "Uncle!"
In the lobby of Liang Mansion, Liang Hongzhi was chatting with Itagaki Seishiro. Liang Hongzhi's son Liang Wenhao, and the Twelfth Army Chief of Staff Aoki Shigesei and Nanjing Gendarmerie Captain Gogyang Jiro were accompanying him.
Hearing the uncle's voice, Liang Wenhao instinctively stood up and wanted to hide.
Liang Wenhao really didn't want to meet his cousin, he couldn't afford to embarrass that person!
"Sit down!" Liang Hongzhi stomped on the floor with his crutch and scolded, "I'm not afraid of other people's jokes either."
Hongzhi reprimanded his son, and Itagaki Seishiro Aoki Shigesei and Gokajiro immediately revealed a teasing smile. The confusing dispute between Liang Wenhao and Liang Wuyi was a big deal in Nanjing at that time, and Itagaki Seishiro and the others also had it. From what I heard, but seriously speaking, Liang Wuyi did a bit too much.
The next moment, the living room door was pushed open forcefully, and then a figure blew in like the wind.
"Uncle, I bought the saury!" The figure shouted loudly as soon as he came in, "Your favorite saury... eh!"
The person who came in was naturally Xu Rui. As if he had just discovered Itagaki Seishiro and others sitting in the hall, he immediately let out a light sigh and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, and Your Excellency, Colonel, why are you here too?" ?”
"Liang-san." Itagaki Seishiro stood up with a smile, and Aoki Shigemako and Goukaijiro quickly followed suit.
The three Japs all stood up. Naturally, Liang Hongzhi and Liang Wenhao and his son did not dare to sit any longer, so they quickly stood up.
"Liang Sang is really filial." Itagaki Seishiro said with a smile, "Dean Liang wanted to eat fish, but you actually went to Xiaguan Pier to buy saury in person. This really surprised us."
Aoki Shigecheng also smiled and said: "Even I didn't expect that Liang Sang has such a side."
Gou Yangjiro did not speak, but stared at Xu Rui with a knife-like gaze.
Xu Rui noticed Inugangjiro's gaze, glanced at him first, and then turned his gaze behind Seishiro Itagaki and Shigemako Aoki. An idea suddenly came to his mind. At this time, he only had to move his fingers. You can kill the commander and chief of staff of the Japanese Twelfth Army, and even have a military police captain attached.
However, this idea disappeared in Xu Rui's mind.
It is indeed easy to kill Itagaki Seishiro and Aoki Shigemako at this time, but the sequelae are not small.
Because after killing Itagaki and Aoki, his cover identity of Liang Wuyi must have been exposed, and the Broadway Building was naturally exposed as well. Although the Broadway Building and the patrol camp combined now have a powerful force, there must be another person for this. The prerequisite is that there is only the Ninth Division in Shanghai.
If the garrison in Shanghai only had the Ninth Division, the patrol battalion and the Broadway Building would indeed have a strong chance of winning. But now the situation has changed. After Hirohito learned that he was the commander of the patrol battalion, They actually want to transfer all the 7th Division and 20th Division.
Facing the three permanent divisions of the Japanese, the pressure immediately increased.
In order to deal with the threats of the three divisions, the Songhu Division must quickly find ways to expand its strength, at least to 20,000 troops before the arrival of the 7th Division and the 20th Division, or even more!
Otherwise, when the 7th and 20th Division arrives, there will be big trouble!
Therefore, the Broadway Building cannot be exposed now, and it cannot kill Seishiro Itagaki.
What's more, even if the defeated general Seishiro Itagaki is killed, Hirohito will send another old devil to serve as the commander of the Twelfth Army, which will not fundamentally solve this problem.
Xu Rui immediately gave up the idea of killing Seishiro Itagaki and said with a smile: "If your Excellency the Commander and Your Excellency the Chief of Staff know our Chinese culture, they will know that our country has always put filial piety first, so I went to the dock. It’s not a big deal to buy some fish for my old uncle to eat.”
Xu Rui's implication is that although this young master is a dandy, a dandy can still be a filial son.
Aoki Shigemai and Itagaki Seishiro looked at each other, and said with a smile: "The commander and I have done a little research on Chinese culture, and we also know that there is an old Chinese saying that filial piety comes first among all the virtues, but what I am more curious about is , when there is a conflict between filial piety and loyalty, how will Liang Sang choose?"
Aoki Shigecheng said this, even if he accepted Xu Rui's explanation just now.
In fact, Seishiro Itagaki and Shigemao Aoki were very satisfied with Xu Rui's answer. Of course, they also hope that Liang Wuyi is a filial son, because this at least means that Liang Wuyi has a weakness that can be controlled by them. Otherwise, Liang Wuyi will If Wu Yi really has no weaknesses, and his ability is so strong, then it would be really worrying.
Although Itagaki Seishiro and Aoki Shigemai are not in Shanghai, they have never relaxed their attention to Shanghai.
As for the current situation in Shanghai, if there were no Broadway Building to support it from the front, the situation would become much worse!
In turn, Itagaki Seishiro and Aoki Shigesei must consider another pressing issue, that is, how to ensure Liang Wuyi's loyalty? How to ensure that Liang Wuyi will not be incited to rebel? Because once Liang Wuyi is incited to rebel, the impact on the situation in Shanghai will be fatal, and may even lead to the complete erosion of the entire Songhu area.
As the commander of the Twelfth Army and the chief of staff, Itagaki and Aoki must consider this issue.
This time when they heard that Liang Wuyi had returned to Nanjing, Itagaki Seishiro and Aoki Shigemako took time off from their busy schedules to come to Liang Mansion. They came just for this matter. They had to give Liang Wuyi some sweetness, and at the same time they had to give him a little something. Warning, making sure he doesn't think otherwise, making sure he remains loyal to the Imperial Army.
Among them, Itagaki and Aoki have a clear division of labor.
Aoki is responsible for playing the bad side, while Bantan is responsible for playing the red side.
Ever since, Aoki Shigemai raised this topic, when Liang Hongzhi's interests conflict with the imperial army, how should you, Liang Wenhao, choose? This is actually a trap, because no matter how Xu Rui chooses, it is wrong. If you choose filial piety, you are ignoring the interests of the imperial army. But if you choose loyalty, the problem will be more serious. Who is your loyalty to
Aoki Shigesei's original intention was to use this difficult topic to reprimand Liang Wuyi severely, and then Itagaki Seishiro would come forward to appease him. Although this method of giving a handful of sweet dates and then giving them a sweet date was low-level, it was effective. Because this has been proven countless times in history.
However, Xu Rui didn't follow this routine at all.
"I don't need to face this problem, because I will never embarrass me." After Xu Rui finished speaking, he turned to Liang Hongzhi and asked, "Uncle, are you right? You will definitely not embarrass me, right?"
"Of course, of course." Liang Hongzhi quickly stood up, nodded and bowed to Aoki Shigemai, "Aoki Taijun, I will always urge him to serve the imperial army wholeheartedly and be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor."
After hearing this, Aoki Shigemai's face immediately dropped, as if he had eaten a fly, because he couldn't sing the play anymore.
The rhythm was completely disrupted, and Itagaki Seishiro couldn't sing anymore. He immediately said to Xu Rui: "Liang Sang, let's not discuss the issue of loyalty and filial piety for now. Let's talk about business. That's it, patrol battalion commander You must have heard about Xu Rui, right?"
"I just heard about it," Xu Rui said, "It's really surprising."
After a pause, Xu Rui added: "But this is what Xu Rui is. He is not as scary as the legend says. At least our Broadway Building will not be afraid of him."
Itagaki Seishiro glanced at Aoki Shigemai again.
To be honest, when they found out that the commander of the patrol battalion was Xu Rui, Itagaki and Aoki were quite surprised. Not only was it unexpected that Xu Rui was the commander of the patrol battalion, but what surprised them even more was that the Broadway Building led by Liang Wuyi could actually compete with Xu Rui. The patrol battalions fought against each other, and they still did not fall behind after such a long time.
It was precisely for this reason that Itagaki Seishiro made a special trip.
To put it bluntly, Itagaki Seishiro came here specifically to win over Liang Wuyi and grant him an official status.
To be honest, Itagaki Seishiro still has very high expectations for Liang Wuyi.
Having said this, Itagaki Seishiro no longer hid or played the trick of hitting a stick and giving a sweet date, but said straight to the point: "Liang Sang, I will do this today. To tell you the truth, I have high expectations for you and the Broadway Building you lead."
"Hai." Xu Rui immediately said, "I will definitely live up to your commander's trust."
"Yo Xi." Itagaki Seishiro nodded happily and said, "Liang Sang, this is what I'm thinking about. Since your uncle doesn't want to go to Shanghai to be the mayor, it's the same for you to be the mayor. However, considering you is still too much. Young people, if they directly reach such a high position as the mayor of Shanghai, it is inevitable to tell the truth, so..."
