In a restaurant owned by Japanese overseas Chinese in Nanjing, Ogawara Junsi was sitting cross-legged on the tatami with Yamayama Takeo and Abe Yuji, drinking sultry wine.
Oluhara Junsi has been having a hard time recently.
Since the last time it failed to cooperate with the Eleventh Army to hunt Xu Rui and caused Itagaki Seishiro to be seriously injured, the Okahara Brigade has never received any instructions, from the new commander of the Central China Condemnation Army Nishio Hisao, down to The deputy chief of staff of the dispatched army's staff seemed to have forgotten that there was such a unit as the Xiaoluyuan Special Warfare Brigade.
Of course, the Oluhara Special Warfare Brigade is actually gone in name only.
Because there are only three people left in the entire special operations brigade, including captain Ogawara Junsi, and the battle loss rate is almost over 98%. This battle loss rate is far higher than the first Each field division on the front line can be said to have the worst record.
Perhaps, this is the main reason why the generals and staff officers of the headquarters ignored the Oluhara Brigade.
However, Oluhara Junsi is also full of grievances. The battle losses of their Oluhara special operations brigade are much greater than those of the front-line field divisions, but that also depends on who the opponent is. The opponents of the first-line field divisions are weak in combat effectiveness. The National Army, but the opponent of their Xiaoluyuan Brigade was the Langya Army. The two were not comparable at all.
Yuji Abe drank a glass of wine and asked Toshimi Ogawara: "Your Majesty Colonel, what does the headquarters mean? Should we abolish the establishment of our special operations brigade, or continue to retain it? If we continue to retain it, why has it not allowed us to do so for so long? Recruiting again?”
Oluhara Junsi didn't say a word, just lowered his head and drank sullenly.
But Yamatakeo, who was sitting in the thorn, said: "Abu-san, why do you care so much? Isn't the life you are living now comfortable enough? You don't have to go to the battlefield to face those devilish enemies, and you have a fixed day every month. You can get more than 100 yen of military pay. If you feel lonely, you can go to the comfort station to find a woman to relieve your punishment. Anyway, I think this kind of life couldn't be better. If I can enjoy this kind of life until the end of the Sino-Japanese War , I will wake up laughing even in my dreams.”
"Nani?" Yuji Abe was dumbfounded, "Is this the ideal of Yamasan?"
"Baga!" Oluhara Junsi was furious when he heard this. He slammed his wine glass on the low table and loudly asked, "Sang Sanshan, can you have any potential? You can still be regarded as a soldier. You Can I still be considered an Imperial warrior?"
"Hai!" Seeing Ogawara Junsi's anger, Yamatakeo quickly knelt down and stood up, then paused, "I made a mistake in my lowly position. Please punish me, Colonel."
The anger in Oluhara Junsi's body suddenly faded like a tide, he shook his head and said: "Forget it, I know these words are not from your true intention, you only said this because you were depressed, and even if you really have such thoughts , not surprising.”
Takeo Yamayama and Yuu Abe looked at each other, and both felt that Shunsi Ogawara was a little depressed.
Ogawara Junsi drank a sip of sake from the glass and said: "Yamayama-san, Abe-san, don't worry, this situation will not last for long. Tomorrow I will go to see the general, whether the special operations brigade is to be disbanded or retained. , there should be a result."
After saying that, Oluhara Junsi called the proprietress of the restaurant over and prepared to settle the bill.
But at this moment, Kawabe Shozo, the chief of staff of the Condemnation Army of Central China, walked into the restaurant with an acquaintance of Okahara Shunsi. Seeing Kawabe Shozo, Okahara Shunsi, the three of them quickly stood up and stood on the tatami. He bowed to Shozo by the river and said, "Your Excellency, General!"
Hebian gave military salutes three times, then took off his military boots and stepped onto the tatami.
Okahara Junsi, who was originally standing at the main seat, quickly gave up the main seat on the left, and asked Shozo Kawabe to take a seat. Shozo Kawabe was not polite, and directly sat cross-legged on the left side of the main seat. Okahara Junsi then turned his attention to the man who came with Zhengsan by the river.
This person was Shun Nakamura, a classmate of Shunsi Okahara in the 6th National University. After graduating from the 6th National University, Shunsi Okahara was selected to study in Germany, but Shun Nakamura was directly assigned to the infantry regiment, and then moved all the way to Shanghai. He became the captain of the gendarmerie and came to Nanjing this time to clean up the aftermath. It happened that Zhengzo by the river was looking for Xiaoluyuan, so he came together.
Although the two met in different ways, they reached the same height, and now both have the rank of colonel.
"Ogahara-san." Nakamura Shun took off his military boots and got on the tatami. He gave Ogahara Junsi a strong bear hug, then patted Ogahara Junsi on the shoulder and said, "It's great to see you again. I I’m really worried that you will be torn into pieces by those devils in the Wolf Fang.”
"Thanks to you." Oluhara Junsi said with a smile, "I probably won't die for the time being."
At that moment, the two of them sat down. Ogawara Shunmi was sitting on the right side, and Nakamura Shun was accompanying him. As for Takeo Yamagami and Abe Yuji, who were originally seated, they had to stand in front of the tatami to serve. They quickly helped the landlady change their seats. Human cups and chopsticks.
The charming proprietress of the restaurant changed the cups and chopsticks for Kawabe Shozo and Nakamura Shun, filled their glasses with wine, and then bowed and left.
However, Kawabe Shozo was not in a hurry to drink, and asked Ogahara Junsi: "Ogahara-san, are you okay with your rest during this time?"
This is telling lies with open eyes. Before, it was clear that Oluhara Shunsi was being left alone, but now the open mouth of Zheng San by the river has become a time for him to rest.
Oluhara Junsi hurriedly said: "Hai, you have rested very well after your humble duty."
If Shunsi Ogawara can become a colonel, of course he is not a fool, and of course he will not expose Shozo Kawabe.
"Yo Xi." Kawabe Shozo nodded happily, and then continued, "Okahara-san, since you have almost rested, it is time to come out to serve the empire and be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor. You can no longer hide in the rear for leisure. .”
"Hai." Oluhara Junsi had nothing to say, so he could only pause.
Kawabe Shozo did not hide anything, and went directly to the topic, saying: "As for whether your special operations brigade should be abolished or retained, the headquarters has great differences. Many people think that the special operations brigade is obviously no match for the Wolf Fang Force. It's almost the same as not having it, but it requires a lot of resources, so I firmly advocate the abolition of the special operations brigade."
Oluhara Junsi's expression darkened when he heard this, but he did not defend himself.
There is really nothing to defend, because in the confrontation with the Langya troops, their special operations brigade was indeed at an absolute disadvantage. Judging from several confrontations, both sides were not at all in terms of individual combat effectiveness or technical and tactical qualities. On the same level.
The gap between the special operations brigade and the Wolf Fang is not just a tiny bit, but a chasm-like gap!
"But..." Kawabe Shozo paused for a moment, and then said, "There are still some people who believe that it is precisely because of the strength of the Spike Force that the special operations brigade must be retained. Although the Special Operations Brigade is not the opponent of the Spike Force, , but at least we can still have a minimum contest, but if we replace it with ordinary field troops, they won’t even have a chance to compete!”
At this time, Jun Nakamura lost no time and said: "Okahara-san, this is actually the personal opinion of His Excellency the General, but it is a minority in the headquarters. The vast majority of people agree with the previous opinions and believe that the special operations brigade should be abolished. "
Oluhara Junsi quickly said: "Your Excellency General, the special operations brigade must not be disbanded! In the previous battles, our special operations brigade did not perform well, or it can be said to be very bad, but the tactics can be improved, and the combat effectiveness can also be improved. It can be improved through training, but the differences in tactics between various arms cannot be improved or improved through training. Special forces can only use special forces to restrain them. If field forces cannot deal with special forces, use field forces to deal with them. Wolf Fang, the result can only be worse!"
"I understand!" Hebian Zhengzo nodded and continued, "I know this very well, so I argued with the general. The general finally decided to retain the special operations brigade and once again allowed you to dispatch the condemnation army from the entire range. Come and recruit people.”
"Thank you, General, thank you, General!" Oluhara Junsi was really grateful this time, because before this, he had even begun to doubt his military future, and even worried about whether he would be directly recalled to the country from the base camp, and then transferred to Reserve.
Kawabe Shozo smiled slightly, and then continued: "But Okahara-san, I came to see you today not only to tell you the good news, but also to ask you for help for another matter."
"Hai!" Oluhara Shunsitun said, "Although Your Excellency the General gives orders, I will do my best to serve Your Excellency the General in this humble position."
Hebeian Zhengsan nodded and said: "The base camp has issued an order to mobilize two divisions and one detachment of heavy troops to launch the second mopping up operation against Damei Mountain. I think Xiaolubara-san must know this news. Bar?"
"Hai." Oluhara Junsitun said, "I have heard about it a few days ago."
"Yo Xi." Kawabe Shozo nodded happily and said, "Then I'll make a long story short. The second mopping up operation on Damei Mountain is not only about the face of the condemned troops sent by Central China, but also about the face of the empire and the Imperial Japanese Army, so , this time only victory is allowed and no defeat is allowed.”
"Hai!" Oluhara Junsi paused again. He knew that Kabeon Masami still had something to say, that is, the second mopping up operation against Damei Mountain was more related to his Kabeon Masami's future. If This time the raid ended in failure again, so his future as Hebian Zhengsan must be over. The best outcome would be to be transferred to a garrison brigade commander somewhere.
At this time, Kawabe Shozo stood up from his knees on the tatami, paused towards Ogahara Junsi, and said seriously: "So, please help me formulate a perfect battle plan, send a condemnation army for Central China, and replace Imperial Army, save the face of the Japanese Empire!" (To be continued.)
