Xu Rui couldn't be happy after winning the battle, and Kawaguchi Heiji suffered a defeat, which made his life even more sad.
At this moment, Kawaguchi Heiji was standing in the backyard of the Mei family ancestral hall, frowning as he looked at the two datura trees in full bloom. What made Kawaguchi Heiji feel embarrassed was how to explain to the commander of the Central China Front, Sugimoto Yuan. all of these
Including Captain Muto Akira, there are more than 1,200 people in Muto's team, more than 700 of them were broken into pieces, and most of the remaining 500 people were seriously injured. Even after recovering from their injuries, I'm afraid it will be difficult to return to the battlefield. , such battle losses can almost be said to have caught up with the previous Hamura detachment.
Speaking of which, Akira Muto died unjustly. Before the war, Akira Muto actually questioned Kawaguchi Heiji, believing that Xu Rui's independent group was clearly fishing, so the Kawaguchi detachment did not need to pay attention to it and just continued according to the original strategy. If we go down, we will definitely push the Dameishan Independent Group to a dead end.
Although the underground tactic of using excavation and destruction to deal with the Dameishan Independent Regiment is a bit stupid, it is better than safety, because according to this tactics, the Japanese army will be more tired and miserable, and at worst they will become marmots. After all, there is no need to pay a high price, but in the end, the Dameishan Independent Regiment will definitely be forced into a desperate situation.
Unfortunately, Kawaguchi Heiji rejected Muto Akira's suggestion.
Muto Akira had Muto Akira's thoughts, and Kawaguchi Heiji also had Kawaguchi Heiji's worries.
Kawaguchi Heiji was worried about the safety of the logistics supply line, and he believed that the so-called tactic of removing wages from the bottom of the cauldron had worked, so he was eager to fight against the Dameishan Independent Regiment. However, he did not expect that he would get such a result. If he had to be held accountable , Kawaguchi Heiji, as the commander, will undoubtedly bear the main responsibility.
However, Kawaguchi Heiji also knows very well that if this responsibility falls on him, it means that he will no longer expect to be promoted in the future. The commander of the major general brigade may be his end. In this life, he is Don't think about being promoted to lieutenant general, and don't ever think about being the division commander of a first-class division.
How could Heiji Kawaguchi be willing to accept such a result
A burst of light footsteps suddenly came from behind. Without turning around, Kawaguchi Heiji knew it was Nagashin Tatsuya.
Sure enough, Nagajin Tatsuya's figure soon appeared next to Kawaguchi and whispered: "Your Excellency, Commander, just now another telegram came from the commander of the front army, asking about the latest progress of the Dameishan mopping up operation."
Kawaguchi Heiji frowned deeply, not knowing what to say to Nagashin Tatsuya.
Tatsu Eijin was also a good person, and he could guess Kawaguchi Heiji's thoughts just by looking at his expression. He then whispered: "Your Excellency, Commander, otherwise, we should truthfully report the battle situation at Xiaolizhuang? Because Muto Akira was lucky and underestimated the enemy. They advanced rashly and were even surrounded by the superior force of the Chinese Army. Although the main force of the detachment tried their best to rescue them, they were stubbornly blocked by the Chinese Army on the way. Although more than 500 Chinese soldiers were killed and injured, they were unable to rescue the Muto Brigade. There are more than 1,200 people below Captain Muto Akira, and more than 700 people are broken into pieces! The rest are all seriously injured!"
"Nani?" Kawaguchi Heiji suddenly turned around and looked at Nagajin Tatsuya with unfamiliar eyes.
Tatsuya Nagashin at this moment indeed made Kawaguchi Heiji feel extremely strange. Is this still the upright, diligent and diligent chief of staff he knew? This is simply calling a deer a horse and confusing right and wrong! However, Kawaguchi Heiji had to admit that what Nagajin Tatsuya said really tempted him.
However, Kawaguchi Heiji also struggled a bit in his heart, because doing so was contrary to his usual principles.
From the look on Kawaguchi Heiji's face, Eijin Tatsuya could see his inner struggle, and he immediately added: "Your Excellency, Commander, isn't what he said about his humble position the truth?"
After hearing these words from Nagashin Tatsuya, Kawaguchi Heiji's inner balance finally tilted. The so-called principles of life finally succumbed to the pressure of reality and future.
"Hai, this is the truth." Kawaguchi Heiji waved his hand and said feebly, "Then please trouble Yongjin-san and truthfully report the situation of the battle at Xiaolizhuang to the commander of the front army. By the way, there is also Oluhara-san, Invite him to come to the backyard, I want to consult him on some important matters."
Asking Oluhara Junsi to come over and make a confession is also the proper meaning of the title.
After all, Ogahara Junsi is also a colonel and a senior officer, so he knows the entire plan. If this matter cannot be recognized and cooperated by Ogahara Junsi, there is no way it can be hidden from the front army headquarters. However, Kawaguchi Heiji was not worried about Okahara Shunsi not cooperating.
Because Okahara Junsi himself is also a piece of shit.
The trick of smearing blood on one's face and pretending to be dead can fool others, but it cannot fool veterans like Kawaguchi.
"Hai, please report this to the front army headquarters." Yongjin Tatsuya paused slightly, turned around and left.
A moment later, Ogawara Junsi, who had already changed into the regular uniform of the Osaka Army, came to the backyard and stood next to Kawaguchi Heiji: "Your Excellency, Commander, I heard that you are looking for me?"
Kawaguchi Heiji waved his hand and said, "Did Yongjin-san tell you about the reason why the Muto brigade suffered heavy losses?"
"I only gave some general information, but please forgive me for being stupid and humble, but I couldn't understand something." Ogawara Junsi's brows frowned. In terms of personal relationship, Ogawara Junsi and Muto Akira still have a very good relationship. Yes, if it hadn't been for Muto Akira's strong recommendation, Ogawara Junsi would not have had the opportunity to form his special forces.
However, this special force has now become a thing of the past.
In the battle of Xiaolizhuang, although the Muto brigade suffered heavy losses, with less than 500 people surviving, and all of them were seriously injured, the special forces of Shunsi Okahara suffered even more heavy losses. There were 26 members of the special forces, and in the end Only three survived, Ogawara Junsi himself, Takeo Yamayama, and Ito Tamanosuke who only had one breath left.
However, this battle also gave Junsi Oluhara a clear understanding of Xu Rui's special team.
Compared with the special forces trained by Junsi Oluhara, Xu Rui's special operations team is a special operations team in the true sense, whether it is the technical and tactical qualities of the players, the degree of specialization in various firearms, or the application of various special tactics. , the special teams trained by Xu Rui are far stronger than those of Junsi Oluhara.
In short, the gap between the two forces is all-round.
After calming down and thinking about it, Ogahara Junsi believed that there were many reasons for this result, but the main reason was that the scope of his selection of team members was limited and the training was too hasty. Many special forces must practice Special operations training, his special operations team did not conduct systematic training.
If he could be given a large enough range of talent selection and enough training time, Oluhara Junsi was fully confident that he could train a special forces unit that would not lose to Xu's special forces.
Unfortunately, this may only be a dream.
Because Shan Shan Yuan originally did not value special operations, after suffering this setback, Shan Shan Yuan is afraid that he will despise special operations even more. At least in the Central China Front, it will be difficult for him to stand up again.
Ogawara Junsi quickly retracted his thoughts, and said to Kawaguchi, "Your Excellency, Commander, please forgive me for being stupid. I didn't quite understand what Yongjin-san meant?"
Kawaguchi Heiji turned around and looked at Okahara with a faint look.
For a moment, Kawaguchi Heiji really wanted to yell in Ogawara Junsi's face: "Don't think that I don't know about the embarrassing things you did, you coward who pretended to be dead!"
Pretending to be dead on the battlefield in order to save one's life is contrary to the spirit of Bushido. If Kawaguchi Heiji really makes the behavior of Ogahara Junsi public, Ogahara Junsi will definitely be ruined, no matter how good his background is, no matter how young he is. How close the Kahara family is to the Japanese royal family, Okahara Junsi can't even think about having a future.
But in the end, Kawaguchi Heiji still resisted the urge and said: "Okahara-san, don't tell secrets in front of Akito, just say it directly. What conditions do you want?"
This is what Oluhara Junsi was waiting for.
Although his friendship with Akira Muto is good, this friendship is nothing compared to his pursuit of special operations.
At that moment, Ogawara Junsi said: "Since the commander has already spoken about this, I will speak frankly about my humble position. I have only one condition."
Kawaguchi Heiji said: "You say."
Xiaoluyuan said: "I hope that the commander can fully support me in rebuilding the special operations team. I can choose the team members at will from the Kawaguchi Detachment and the Feicheng Garrison Brigade. This unit can be classified under the sequence of the Kawaguchi Detachment. However, according to the training plan It must be formulated by me personally, and the Commander shall not interfere for any reason or in any way.”
"Okay." Kawaguchi Heiji said, "But this will have to wait until this mopping up operation is over. Also, you should pack your bags now and return to Feicheng first."
Kawaguchi Heiji doesn't want to see Ogawara Junsi anymore.
Because every time he sees Ogawara Junsi, Kawaguchi Heiji will inevitably think of this transaction. To be honest, Kawaguchi Heiji hates such secret transactions because it is obviously contrary to the military principles he has always adhered to.
"Hai." Xiaoluhara Junsi actually doesn't want to stay in Dameishan any longer. At this moment, he just wants to escape from this sad place as soon as possible, and he doesn't want to come back here again before the new special forces team is formed. , at that moment Xiaoluyuan Junsi paused slightly and said, "I will leave my humble position right now."
Okahara Junsi had just left with his front foot, and Nagashin Tatsuya came in with his heel.
Yongjin Tatsuya glanced at Oluhara's back and asked: "Your Excellency, Commander, has Oluhara-san agreed?"
Kawaguchi Heiji did not answer, but asked Nagashin Tatsuya: "Egjin-san, how did the general reply?"
Speaking of Shanshan Yuan's reply, Nagajin Tatsuya's expression immediately became solemn.
Seeing Tatsuya Nagashin's expression, Kawaguchi Heiji immediately felt his heart sink.
Sure enough, Yongjin Tatsuya said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, Commander, the General is very angry about the outcome of the battle at Xiao Lizhuang, and asked us to eliminate the threat of the Dameishan Independent Regiment as soon as possible."
