The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 410 The price of living people is different

Yoshito Hamada said: "You can take a plane and go to Peach Blossom Mountain overnight to negotiate with Gao Jiu. You can guarantee to get in touch with Gao Jiu before noon tomorrow."

The reason why Hamada Yoshito dared to meet Gao Jiu, and was sure to see Gao Jiu, was because he believed that local snakes like Captain Hirata and Liu Shengyu would find a way to send him to Gao Jiu.Even if they can't help it, Taohua Mountain is full of anti-Japanese troops now, as long as he shows up there, those anti-Japanese troops will bring him in front of Gao Jiu.

Why did he dare to meet Gao Jiu alone?It was because he believed that Gao Jiu would not kill him as a messenger because of small losses.

Sure enough, the three generals appreciated Hamada Yoshito's attitude, and then they discussed the content of the negotiation.

On the way back to the Gendarmerie Command, General Matsuda asked with concern: "You haven't learned how to parachute, how did you go down by air?"

Yoshito Hamada said: "It's not difficult. I can sit in a big wooden box with a thick quilt on it, and let the Air Force release me as a material."

General Matsuda appreciated Hamada's seriousness and flexibility in doing things very much, and said: "Very well, you can do it boldly and don't have any worries. If you can't get things done, you have to come back safely."

Yoshishi Hamada felt very fortunate that he had an immediate boss like General Matsuda, and he said that he would make every effort to complete the task as much as possible.

Yoshito Hamada returns to the Gendarmerie Command

Immediately afterwards, he called Captain Hirata of the Shoucheng County Gendarmerie and asked them to try to get in touch with Gao Jiu, and he drove to the airport outside Jinan by himself.

When Hamada Yoshito arrived at the airport, the airport had barely restored the command system, but when the pilots of the transport aircraft group heard that they were going to Peach Blossom Mountain to carry out their mission, they all began to pretend to be sick, pushing back and forth, and no one wanted to go.

The military discipline of the Japanese army is strict, and orders will be executed immediately when they are given. However, when facing Taohua Mountain, they turned into this.Yoshito Hamada was deeply concerned to see the air force's morale drop to such an extent.

He talked about it, took out the only two remaining gold bars that were looted from Shoucheng County last time, and gave them to the captain of the transport aircraft brigade, who went down to do ideological work, and the pilots agreed to take Hamada Yoshihito there Shoucheng County, but he refused to go near Taohua Mountain, only willing to parachute him to Shoucheng County.

Shoucheng County.

Captain Hirata received a call from Hamada Yoshiichi, and he was unwilling to participate in this matter, so he notified Liu Shengyu of this matter and asked Liu Shengyu to handle it.

Liu Shengyu immediately sent someone to notify Sun Yongan, asking him to inform Gao Jiu of the situation.Afterwards, he led the security forces out of the city and went to the outskirts to meet Hamada Yoshito who fell from the sky.

Liu Shengyu was not worried that Hamada Yoshiichi would doubt how he could get in touch with Taohuashan, because this matter was very simple.He could entrust an ordinary person or businessman to go to Peach Blossom Mountain to inform the matter, just like Ning Wen asked a beggar to deliver a letter to the Third Air Force.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary people can usually live up to seven days without eating, as long as they have water to drink, if they stay in place and do not consume physical energy.

These officers and soldiers of the Japanese army have been tossing and tossing repeatedly these days, and their physical strength has been severely exhausted. They have not survived for the seventh day, and there is not much time left for Gao Jiu to solve the problem. If the negotiators of the Japanese army can Coming here is of course a good thing.

After Gao Jiu received the telegram, he felt very happy. The Japanese army had already started to act according to their own rhythm, and this matter could be carried forward even better.

He sent a telegram to Li Chengwu, asking him to send cavalry to Shoucheng County to meet the negotiators of the Japanese army.

Liu Shengyu and others lit a fire outside the city to indicate the target for the Japanese planes that came to airdrop.

Yoshiichi Hamada sat in a large wooden box and was air-dropped. Although two layers of quilts were spread in the wooden box, the vibration generated when the wooden box hit the ground still made him almost faint.

Liu Shengyu welcomed Yoshito Hamada and personally escorted him to Taoyuan Town.On the way, they encountered the horse team of Li Chengwu and others.

Hamada Yoshito was dressed in a long robe and a Chinese businessman, and was blindfolded and sent to Peach Blossom Mountain.

In the early morning, a southeast wind blew on the top of No. 43 Mountain. Nakajima Hōgo was aroused by the smell of boiled meat and felt a strong sense of hunger. The 12th Army Command has sent people to negotiate with Taohuashan, told them, and asked them to wait for the news in the tent, so that they can discuss in time if there is any situation.

After several brigade captains came over, they all reported the bad situation of their brigade:
Just tonight, more than 20 soldiers died of starvation, and more than a dozen soldiers committed suicide.

The Wing attached a suggestion to inform all officers and soldiers of the arrival of the Japanese negotiators, so that everyone could persevere with hope.Hyogo Nakajima agreed to his proposal.

It was already 9:[-] in the morning when Gao Jiu saw Hamada Yoshito, and he immediately received Hamada Yoshito.

After Hamada Yoshito was brought up the mountain, he had been looking forward to seeing Gao Jiu, he hoped to see Gao Jiu's true face.It's a pity that Gao Jiu came, and even that long-known female general in red, Jiang Xiaomei, also came, but his eyes were always blindfolded, which made him very regretful.

For Hamada Yoshihito, Gao Jiu has been famous for a long time. Seeing this long-standing main opponent, Gao Jiu also sized him up with great interest.In order to see the true face of Hamada Yoshito clearly and to show him off, he didn't talk to him right away, but asked someone to take him aside to take a picture of him.

Yoshito Hamada was very angry about this, but he had no choice but to obediently let the special forces members manipulate him.

Gao Jiu's move really put a lot of pressure on Hamada Yoshihide. He knew that his true face had been exposed in front of the Taohuashan guerrillas, and the danger of being assassinated in the future would be greatly increased. Still unable to see Gao Jiu's true face, this asymmetrical situation made Hamada Yoshihito fearful.

After the photo was taken, Hamada Yoshito was blindfolded again and brought in front of Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu's attitude towards him was very polite, and he said in Japanese: "Hamada-kun, we are old friends, welcome to Peach Blossom Mountain."

Hamada Yoshito couldn't laugh or cry, he was Gao Jiu's defeated opponent, the so-called "old friend" was undoubtedly a huge irony to him.He didn't know what to say for a while, so he just remained silent there, waiting for Gao Jiu's further questioning.

Gao Jiu said: "Hamada-kun, you are a very talented person. All along, the battle plans you made should be quite perfect, and you should be called an outstanding person among the Japanese army.

Hamada-kun, my words are sincere, and I don't mean to be ironic to you.You fail because you are the aggressors, the time and place are right and you are at a disadvantage. "

Yoshito Hamada always thought so. Gao Jiu's words were so pertinent that he couldn't help feeling a confidant. He said sincerely: "Mr. Gao, I have to admit that you are extremely skilled. You are an extremely rare A formidable opponent. I am convinced that I was defeated by you."

Gao Jiu said: "Hamada-kun, the reason why I respect you is not only because of your talent, but also because although you have organized many large-scale military operations, in these operations, there are very few massacres. Incidents involving innocent people, this is what I appreciate."

Yoshito Hamada personally saw how Ayumi Hamasaki died, and he knew better why they were being chased and killed by Gao Jiu. Therefore, when he was planning a military operation, he specially reminded those who participated in the military operation Japanese generals, don't slaughter innocent people.Therefore, although it is difficult to avoid innocent civilian casualties in combat operations, there has not been a large-scale massacre of civilians.

So far, Yoshito Hamada felt that the atmosphere of the conversation was very harmonious. He said: "Mr. Gao, I am a standard soldier, and I will confront you in a soldier-to-soldier manner."

Although Yoshito Hamada believed that Gao Jiu would not detain and kill him, he was still on someone else's territory after all, so he was unavoidably worried. What he meant by saying this could be regarded as a provocative method. I hope Gao Jiu can respect it. The honor of the soldier, save your own life.

Sure enough, he heard what he wanted to hear the most, Gao Jiu said: "Hamada-kun, you can rest assured, no matter what the outcome of the next negotiation is, I guarantee that you can drive here safely."

Hamada Yoshito said: "Thank you, Mr. Gao. May I ask Mr. Gao, the 18th Regiment has been surrounded here for almost five days. What are you going to do next?"

The result he hoped most was that Gao Jiu said that all the surrounded Japanese troops on the mountain would be wiped out, because Gao Jiu had always done this before, and he would not take any prisoners or leave any survivors.

Unfortunately, what Gao Jiu said worried him the most.Gao Jiu said: "These Japanese soldiers on the mountain are almost unable to hold on. If they are willing to surrender, I will let them live."

Hamada Yoshito immediately said: "Mr. Gao, you are insulting the Yellow Army of Japan. When did you see that there is an army of the Yellow Army of Japan willing to surrender?"

Speaking of this, he hoped to dispel Gao Jiu's thoughts, so he deliberately spoke to stimulate Gao Jiu, and said: "Mr. Gao, I advise you to dispel this idea as soon as possible. I will fight until every soldier dies, I would rather die than surrender."

When the people around Gao Jiu heard this, they were very angry at Hamada Yoshihito's arrogance, and could not help but reprimand him one after another.

Jiang Xiaomei said: "You damn Japanese bandits invaded China for no reason, murdered and set fire, raped and looted, and committed all kinds of crimes. You are just a group of robbers and rascals. You have the shame to talk about a sense of honor. It's really shameless."

Hamada Yoshiro had anticipated the outcome of his words early on. Although he was still a little scared in his heart, he still puffed up his chest as much as possible, showing that he had the spirit of a soldier.

Gao Jiu stretched out his hand to stop everyone, and said, "Hamada-kun, if that's the case, why did you come here? What are you worried about?"

Gao Jiu's words hit Yoshito Hamada's heart. Obviously, if things were really as he said, why did he come to negotiate?

Yoshito Hamada had already thought up his rhetoric for this. He said: "The soldiers of the Yellow Army of the 18th Regiment are surrounded by you here. They have run out of ammunition and food. This is an unfair battle." .I hope the two sides can have a fair duel, otherwise it will affect your reputation, Mr. Gao."

Jiang Xiaomei reprimanded again: "You devil is really shameless. When did you fight without relying on the strength of the number of people and the sharpness of the artillery? Now you come here to talk about a fair duel? How shameless!"

Hamada Yoshida didn't dare to answer back, he said to himself: "A good man doesn't fight with a woman." He stood there without saying a word.

Gao Jiu still maintained a kind attitude, he asked: "Hamada-kun, since you are here, you must achieve a certain purpose. Tell me, what exactly do you want to do here?"

Hamada Yoshihito felt very passive, he couldn't figure out Gao Jiu's cards, and he had to talk about his purpose for coming.He said: "You have surrounded the Japanese Yellow Army on the mountain. They have run out of ammunition and food for many days. I hope you will allow us to provide them with supplies, and then the two sides will have a fair duel.

Of course, you can also put forward your own conditions, and the two parties can negotiate together. "

Gao Jiu said: "If I agree to your request, what are your conditions?"

When Hamada Yoshito heard that Gao Jiu was willing to negotiate terms, he was secretly happy, thinking that his judgment was right. Although this guy is powerful, he is greedy for money and lustful, so if he is willing to make terms, it will be easy to handle.

"We can provide you with some funding," he said.

Gao Jiu asked, "How much are you willing to pay?"

Hamada Yoshito said: "10 oceans."

Gao Jiu shook his head and said: "Hamada-kun, you are not sincere. You must know that I sold the corpses of the Yamamoto garrison for 10 oceans. I starved all the people on the mountain to death, and I can still sell them for 10 oceans. Isn't it bullying you to raise such a condition?"

Hamada Yoshito said: "Mr. Gao, money matters can be negotiated, and buying and selling pay attention to bargaining. You can make a price."

Gao Jiu said: "Most of the officers and soldiers of the noble army on the mountain are still alive, there should be no less than 2000 of them, and I plan to put them back. Of course, the price of the dead is different from the price of the living, and I don't want more. , give 100 million oceans."

Before Yoshihiro Hamada came, he had already thought about his main goal, which was to save the remaining officers and soldiers. Of course, he couldn't take the initiative to mention this matter. He wanted to focus Gao Jiu's attention on the price. During the negotiation, he said, "Mr. Gao, 100 million oceans is really too much. With this amount of money, we can re-equip the three 18th Wings."

Gao Jiu sighed, shook his head and said: "Hamada-kun, you really disappointed me, so the lives of your Japanese soldiers are so worthless? Think about it, if I take what you said, Tell the soldiers of the besieged 18th Regiment what will they think?"

Yoshito Hamada was taken aback. He really didn't expect Gao Jiu to be so powerful. He caught him if he was a little careless in his words. Able to eat him alive.

Yoshito Hamada was very scared, but he was a very experienced person after all, so he didn't answer the question, and said directly: "Mr. Gao, let's talk about business when we talk about business. Why are you talking so far?"

Gao Jiu said: "I like honest people. You'd better tell me all your reasons for coming here. Let's talk about money on this basis."

Yoshito Hamada said: "I have a suggestion. You should make way for the besieged officers and soldiers of the Yellow Army to leave here safely. I can make the decision and pay you 25 oceans."

Gao Jiu said: "It's not impossible to let them leave here, but they must all surrender. As long as they are willing to put down their weapons and surrender, I can guarantee their safety and let you take them back immediately."

Hamada Yoshito immediately said: "This is impossible. It is impossible for the Japanese Yellow Army to surrender. They would rather die in battle than do such a thing."

The meaning of what Hamada Yoshito said was to stimulate Gao Jiu, so that Gao Jiu would simply attack the 18th Regiment of the Japanese Army and wipe them all out, and Hamada Yoshito would be considered to have completed the task.

It's a pity that Gao Jiu said: "Mr. Hamada, you are not sincere when you speak like this. If you don't believe me, I can let you see with your own eyes how your so-called warriors of the Yellow Army put down their weapons and surrendered? !"

Hamada Yoshito pretended to be firm and said: "This is absolutely impossible!"

Gao Jiu said with a smile, "There is an old saying in China, that is, you will not cry until you see the coffin. Since you are not willing to let go now, when your seeing is believing, I will not offer these conditions."

Hamada Yoshito was very disturbed. Although he believed in the strong willpower of the Japanese officers and soldiers, he was also worried that they would do something irrational when they were starving.He can't back down yet, he decided to take a gamble and observe the development of the situation.

He said: "Mr. Gao, I cannot agree with what you said, it is impossible!"

Gao Jiu still said kindly: "In this case, Hamada-kun, you can go down and rest first, and I will prove it to you soon."

Several Taohuashan team members came over and took Hamada Yoshihito down.

Jiang Xiaomei asked, "Ninth brother, what should we do next?"
