The same tragicomedy was also staged at the Central China Front Army Headquarters in Nanjing.
Jiang Nan has developed a will to die, and is determined to complete Xu Rui's unfinished business at the cost of his own life, and to fulfill Xu Rui's solemn warning of "Don't say it is unforeseen."
This is like a sword that once it is unsheathed, it cannot be taken back without seeing blood.
There have been several times where Jiangnan was able to shoot Shunroku Hata.
However, Jiang Nan was not in a hurry to take action, because she was waiting for a more suitable opportunity. She wanted to give Shunroku Hata a fatal shot when he was most proud, and pull him from the pinnacle of victory to the hell of failure. Only in this way Jiang Nan I feel relieved that I dared to hurt my man from Jiangnan. This is what I will end up with!
Time passed little by little, and Jiang Nan was waiting patiently.
With five minutes left before eleven o'clock, Jiang Nan finally stood up from his seat. The entire dance was arranged by Jiang Nan. She naturally knew that in five minutes, the broadcast specially placed in the corner of the lawn would sound, and it would be in Feicheng. Shiro Inaba on the front line will congratulate Shunroku Hata through the frequency of Dameishan Broadcasting Station.
Yes, Jiangnan wants to kill Shunroku Hata the moment he receives congratulations from Inaba Shiro!
As soon as Jiang Nan stood up from his seat, he immediately caught the attention of all the male guests in the room, including Shunroku Hata. There was no doubt that Jiang Nan was one of the most dazzling stars at tonight's victory dance. The other one was the Associated Press war correspondent in China, Helena, who was wearing a European court evening dress.
Under the gaze of all the men, Jiangnan walked up to Shunroku Hata, smiled and said: "Your Majesty, General, am I honored to ask you to dance?"
"Of course." Shunroku Hata agreed happily and stood up immediately.
Shunroku Hata also said that it was his military demeanor that fascinated Jiangnan. Shunroku Hata was still quite proud of being able to attract the favor of such a beautiful woman like Jiangnan. Although he was already a man running for sixty, who said that six A ten-year-old man can't have a second youth, right
However, when the two stood together and Jiangnan put her right hand on Hata Shunroku's left arm, many guests present immediately burst into low laughter.
Because Jiangnan is tall, about 1.65 meters, and he was wearing crystal high heels tonight, which made him look even taller and slender, while Shunroku Hata is only less than 1.6 meters tall. In addition, because of lung disease, his back has deteriorated over time. He is no longer as tall as he was when he was young, so he looks shorter.
It seemed that Shunroku Hata was only as high as Jiangnan's shoulders.
Feeling the height difference between himself and Jiangnan, Shunroku Hata couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Many Western reporters and military attachés stationed in China laughed without scruples. Although the Japanese army defeated the Russian army in the Russo-Japanese War thirty years ago, and later defeated the German army in the battle for Qingdao, The Western world's contempt for Eastern civilization has been ingrained in its bones and cannot be easily changed.
The Japanese officers present at the meeting felt insulted and immediately glared at each other.
The few Western military attaches who were invited to attend naturally did not show weakness and also glared at each other.
Seeing that the two sides were about to fight if they disagreed, Jiang Nan immediately broke the deadlock with a smile: "General, your height reminds me of the French Emperor, General Napoleon, and our famous diplomat Yan Zi during the Warring States Period in China. Look. Even God is jealous of your abilities, so he took away your height."
Jiang Nan wanted to kill Shunroku Hata when he was most proud and happy, so naturally he would not let anyone ruin this victory dance.
Jiangnan's turnaround successfully resolved Hata Shunroku's embarrassing situation. Hata Shunroku smiled mockingly and said: "Miss Jiang is really good at talking, but I don't dare to compete with Napoleon and your country's famous wise man Yanzi. I am just a He is just a warrior, he only knows how to lead troops and fight, but he can't do anything else."
After the song was finished, Shunroku Hata did as Jiangnan wished and invited her to take a seat at the banquet.
Jiangnan originally approached Hata Shunroku deliberately with an assassination attempt, so he readily agreed and sat down at the table.
"Hello, Misi Jiang, I am Helena, the war correspondent of the Associated Press in China." There was already a beautiful woman sitting at the table. Seeing Jiangnan take his seat, Helena immediately stretched out her hand, Jiangnan He stretched out his little hand and gently shook Helena's hand. Then the two looked at each other and smiled, as if they had been friends for many years.
"Misijiang, you are so beautiful, I can't help but fall in love with you."
"Miss Helena, you are so beautiful, just like the beauty in the painting."
The two of them had just said a few words when Liang Hongzhi at the other end of the table had already stood up, walked to the microphone and said: "Everyone, what follows is the highlight of tonight's victory dance, the division commander of the Kumamoto Division, Shiro Inaba. The general will bring blessings to His Excellency the Commander from the front line of Feicheng, and now we are all ears."
The Japanese military officers and reporters accompanying the army at the scene applauded enthusiastically.
Western media reporters and diplomatic attachés stationed in China were indifferent.
The smile at the corner of Jiang Nan's mouth became sweeter. However, his right hand slipped from the table to the edge of the table without leaving a trace, and then quietly lifted the hem of the Hanfu under the cover of the tablecloth. Helena was sitting next to Jiang Nan and turned her head inadvertently. I saw Jiang Nan lift up the hem of his Hanfu, revealing his long, snow-white legs.
Seeing this scene, Helena couldn't help but be stunned. What is going on
Jiang Nan put his left index finger in front of his red lips and made a silent gesture towards Helena.
Helena really didn't make a sound, she just watched blankly as Jiang Nan lifted the Hanfu to his thighs, then exposed the holster hidden underneath, and then took out the exquisite Browning pistol from the holster. Seeing this Holding a pistol, Helena immediately understood what Jiang Nan was going to do, and her heart was beating wildly, but she still didn't make a sound.
Helena has great sympathy for China, so she is happy to see Japanese soldiers shot by Chinese people on Chinese soil.
Jiangnan hid the pistol under the tablecloth and aimed it at Shunroku Hata, who was diagonally opposite.
At this time, Shunroku Hata did not know that the god of death was waving to him. Instead, he turned his head with great interest and turned his attention to the broadcast in the corner of the lawn, waiting for Inaba Shiro to send him a message from Feicheng. Although the result was already known, Shunroku Hata still enjoys this scene very much. Let me ask, who can't be vain
"Time's up!" Liang Hongzhi was counting the seconds and immediately signaled to turn on the radio.
The broadcast was connected, and after the rustling background sound, a panicked voice sounded.
"Ya Zhu Die, Ya Zhi Butterfly, Kong Mayi Butterfly, Kurosid Vaidenai." The voice sounded very scary.
Hearing this panicked cry, Shunroku Hata was immediately stunned. All the Japanese officers on the scene also looked at each other. Where are they? Why did Inaba Shiro send such a message to the Commander? It's so strange. Translated, it means don't, don't, don't come over, don't kill me.
Who is this? Who wants to kill him? what's the situation
Huge question marks floated through the air, and all the Japanese officers were confused.
Jiang Nan was already ready to pull the trigger, but at this time he instinctively paused.
The voice on the radio still kept repeating itself, getting more and more scary.
Liang Hongzhi, who was standing next to the radio, could not understand Japanese, and said everything was normal. He immediately shouted "Hello" and then started to applaud enthusiastically. The traitorous celebrities who were invited to the ball also applauded enthusiastically, but soon they discovered that Shunroku Hata's expression was a bit abnormal, even very angry.
The applause became sparse and eventually stopped.
However, Liang Hongzhi's mind couldn't turn around all of a sudden, and he still said under the guidance of inertia: "Okay, General Inaba said well, let us thank you with warm applause..."
"Baga." Hata Shunroku couldn't bear it anymore and roared at Liang Hongzhi.
Liang Hongzhi was so frightened that he swallowed the second half of his words.
At this time, another hoarse voice sounded from the radio again, still speaking Japanese.
"Shunroku Hata, and all the little devils in front of the radio, you must not have figured out who the guy who just knelt down and begged for mercy was? Then, let me tell you, listen up, he is Kumamoto The division’s lieutenant general, Shiro Inaba, haha, you didn’t expect that, did you?”
Hearing this, Hata Shunroku's expression suddenly changed.
Dozens of Japanese officers at the scene also looked at each other.
Inaba Shiro? Is this guy who was begging for mercy on the radio just now Inaba Shiro
At this moment, Shunroku Hata and the Japanese officers were horrified to death, but Jiangnan was ecstatic!
Hearing this slightly hoarse voice, Jiang Nan's originally fair and pretty face suddenly turned bright red, and her thin shoulders began to tremble uncontrollably. Xu Rui, Xu Rui, it's Xu Rui, it's Xu Rui's The voice is really Xu Rui! Although Xu Rui was speaking Japanese at this time, Jiang Nan could still tell it.
Jiangnan will never mishear Xu Rui's voice!
Seeing Jiang Nan like this, Helena said that Jiang Nan was about to shoot, and immediately grabbed the tablecloth tightly with both hands, feeling really nervous and a little expectant.
But what surprised Helena was that Jiang Nan did not fire. Instead of firing, he put the exquisite Browning pistol back into the holster at the base of his leg.
On the radio, Xu Rui's voice continued to ring: "Hata Shunroku, do you still remember what I told you when you first came to China? I asked you to wash your neck and wait. Sooner or later, I will put a dog's head on your neck. Now let me reiterate it again, I, Xu Rui, will definitely take your head sooner or later. Today’s Shiro Inaba will be you tomorrow! Don’t say it, it’s not predictable!”
"Baga!" Listening to Xu Rui's unabashed threat, Shunroku Hata's face turned bright red in an instant. When he heard Xu Rui say something unpredicted again, Shunroku Hata finally couldn't suppress it anymore. Holding back the salty feeling rising in his throat, he opened his mouth suddenly and spurted out a large mouthful of bright red blood. (To be continued.)
