Rise from eight hundred.

The ability value of the Japanese army's pervasive spy system is really not a boast.

Without deliberate propaganda by the second war zone, the special task force sent by the Japanese North China Front Army was completely annihilated, and the news that its commander Fujiwara Senao Zhongzuo was captured alive spread to the North China Front Army Command in Pingbei City the next day.

No one knew how Shan Shanyuan was shocked and angry when he received the news, but his reaction speed was very fast. He immediately contacted a third party and the stingy old man without waiting for the Fujiwara family in the island to call.

Don't ask about the channel from the Japanese North China Front Army. In fact, this line has basically never been broken before the defense of the original city.

Moreover, Tang Dao also knew that until one or two years before the end of the war, the Japanese North China Front Army had never given up instigating rebellion, and he was a stingy old man who was regarded as a pivotal figure in northern China.

That will not only play a major role in stabilizing the occupied northern regions of China, but more importantly, it will deal a psychological blow to the Chinese military and civilians who have been unwilling to surrender.

It's just that everyone underestimated the political savvy of the stingy old man. Although he seems to have no resistance to money, his political sensitivity is not low.In particular, he has been entrenched in Jin Province for more than [-] years without falling amidst the crowd of heroes, and he has honed his ability to survive in the cracks of the major forces to perfection.

He never refused the property sent by the Japanese, nor would he kill the secret negotiators sent by the Japanese at will. The interruption made the Japanese feel itchy, but there was nothing they could do about it.

It dragged on like this for several years, and when Japan started to jump into the Pacific War, American soldiers began to beat up the Japanese on the aircraft carrier, even a fool would not make this choice again, and the Japanese who are dying are really dead. Heart.

And what's even more awesome about the stingy old man is that he seems to be submissive to the principal there, flirts with the Japanese here, and flirts with the principal's confidant, the [-]th Army, on the other. .

Therefore, Tang Dao is not worried that this guy will contact the Japanese, just like another big boss, he is willing to put his name in the arms of the Japanese for thousands of years, especially when the Battle of Southeast Shanxi has just won such a big victory.

Sure enough, facing the olive branch handed over by the Japanese with 17 large yellow croakers, the stingy old man took it right, but he pushed it to the [-]th division with a single move of Taijiquan.

The reason is also very simple. The special agent team killed an infantry squad of the 17th Division, and was captured by the 17th Division. If you want to change people, you need their consent. He, the commander of the theater, can only help to tie the knot , but if you use a military order to force it, then ask your Excellency General Shan Shanyuan if he will do so.

After all, it is still the time when the battle between China and Japan is fierce, and the Japanese North China Front Army does not have the courage to send their own people directly. The person who is in charge of contacting the stingy old man in private is a Chinese businessman. Competent staring, not even daring to say a word, staring at the stingy old man with unfriendly winks, asking more questions, and directly killing them as traitors, that would be a waste of money.

In desperation, the news can only be transmitted to Pingbei City through secret channels, and Commander Shan Shanyuan is invited to make a decision.

But here the 17th Division is not in a hurry to cash out a certain prisoner of war. While continuing to strengthen the fortifications in the defense area, it specially invited Company Commander Tantai Mingyue of the medical company of the Four Elements Regiment to go to the station to take a few photos of Fujiwara Senxie. By the way, I wrote an article about the arduous battle of the 17th Division in the Battle of Southeast Shanxi. The article and photos were published in a newspaper belonging to the Second Theater.

This is a usual propaganda method. Even if a certain commander is in a situation of displeasure with the 17th Division, it is not easy to stop it openly in the face of the big reporter Tantai.

Otherwise, the big reporter Tantai is fully capable of publishing his texts in big newspapers such as 'Jinling Daily' and 'Shenbao'. As long as the pen is a little crooked to connotate him as the commander of the war zone, his reputation, which is not very good in the first place, will be great. no.
Before the advent of the Internet age, the title of the uncrowned king of journalists was really not for nothing.

As for what he can do with the big reporter Tantai, let’s not talk about the status of the Jiangnan Tantai family in the cultural circles, as for the fact that Tantai Mingyue is Tang Dao’s fiancée, the narrow-minded stingy old man would not dare to do anything to her, at least for this time No way.

He has to rely on the elite troops like the Four Elements Regiment to help him defend the only remaining territory in Jin Province. Tang Dao's nimble "Lengtouqing" even dared to listen to a certain principal and refused to listen to the announcement, which angered Tang Dao. The consequences are self-evident.

Power is what this person values ​​most!
Of course, in order to pose for these photos, Fujiwara Seno, who had lost his hands and feet, was hurriedly put on the captured Japanese military uniform by a group of big soldiers.

For this battle in the southeast of Shanxi, not to mention the uniforms of the army's lieutenants, even the uniforms of the major generals of the army, they all have a set!
In order to cooperate with the 17th division, the poor "disabled person" had to endure severe pain and sit on the bench. Otherwise, what awaited him would be a humiliating beating.

If you don’t like to wear clothes, then you can just strip them naked and whip your ass. Chinese soldiers have never been used to Fujiwara Seno. His attitude of loving death has made Fujiwara Seno realize that he is far from what he imagined. equally important.

Fujiwara Senxie doesn't understand. The Chinese big soldiers don't know his value. Don't those Chinese generals know it too?But that's how they treat a "baby" that can be equipped with at least two infantry regiments?I'm not afraid that I won't be able to replace a steel coin if I kill it.

Fujiwara Seno didn't know that it all stemmed from his old rival's love for him.

"Don't worry, that guy is very resistant to beatings. As long as you don't poke his heart with a knife and chop his head off, he won't die. Remember, just beat him once a day and feed him until he's full." Tang Dao is always thinking about Fujiwara Senxie.

Master Zhao, who had received Tang Dao's benefits, had almost blind trust in Tang Tuanzuo. Hearing what Tang Dao said, he directly delegated power to his most trusted security battalion commander.

And this guard battalion commander is from the same town as the major infantry battalion commander who has lost an infantry squad. He has long received a request from the fellow villager to make the little devil suffer, so why not torment Fujiwara to death? What about Zhanxiong!
What Tang Tuanzuo said is [-]% full, when it comes to the implementation below, there will be two or two gruel that looks clear every day, and occasionally throwing a piece of cake, it is considered a holiday.

It turns out that the most difficult thing in this world is not physical and mental pain, but hunger!

Through this battle, Fujiwara Seno may not have increased his other knowledge, but he has a very thorough understanding of hunger.

That's what the officers and soldiers of the 17th Division Guard Battalion taught him.

Therefore, when posing for a photo, I was very honest, and the whole set was full of love.

Perhaps at this time, the North China battlefield was far away from the Central Plains, and the newspapers published by this newspaper were generally only available to the armies in southeastern Shanxi and Shaanxi Province. In addition, Fujiwara Senxie was only a mere lieutenant officer, and did not cause much repercussions across the country.

But these few photos shocked a big family in Japan.

Only then did the Fujiwara family know that the direct descendants of their own family had become captives of the Chinese. If they were not rescued as soon as possible, not only would the family honor be shamed, but they might also be used by political opponents.

There were no telegrams like snowflakes, and only one urgent telegram made Shan Shanyuan's forehead covered with cold sweat.

"Although your recent record is not good, it is only a matter of time before the war in northern China can be smoothly advanced with your ability. Isao Fujiwara wishes you to be crowned the Marshal of the Empire as soon as possible!"

The telegram was sent from a lieutenant general in the Fujiwara family, whose status was far less prominent than that of Yuan Shanshan. In his words, he also wished Yuan Rong of the Landing Army Marshal Shanshan Yuanrong.

But sending such a telegram at this time, its meaning is self-evident, it is almost a threat from Chiguoguo, if Shanshanyuan does not solve the matter of Fujiwara Senxie, no matter how good the record is in the future, the position of Marshal of the Empire will be of great importance to him. It is also like a mirror image.

With such energy in the Fujiwara family, it might not be able to promote him, but it can definitely ruin his affairs.What's more terrible is that at his age, he can't stay in the army for a few years. When he gets old and weak, the Fujiwara family will still be on stage. Who will protect him, an old guy who has lost his military power?
Even if he doesn't care about it himself, what about his family members?They still have to mix in the imperial army.

To put it bluntly, no matter what, Shan Shanyuan has to save Fujiwara Senxie, otherwise he will provoke a behemoth in the empire, and even if he brings a corpse back, he can do business.

After all, Shan Shanyuan is also a person who once served as the Minister of Army. Knowing that this matter is difficult to deal with, he is decisive. He immediately notified the person in charge of contacting the stingy old man. The North China Army hopes to exchange prisoners of war, and can agree to some subsidiary conditions If the Second Theater agrees, the North China Front Army is even willing to send a high-level negotiating delegation, and the two sides can temporarily cease fire during the negotiation.

"Good guy! The Japanese are planning to pay a big price! Zhao Shoushan gave us a big gift inadvertently!" The stingy old man stroked his thinning hair and walked around the study excitedly.

With the current offensive and defensive situation of China and Japan, the Japanese North China Army has assembled nearly 30 troops. On the one hand, it stabilizes the already occupied Ping, Tianjin, and Hebei. , threatening the Guanzhong Plain with the natural moat of the Yellow River, and then threatening the Qinling Mountains, the last barrier in southwest China.

The soldiers of the Japanese East China Front Army have crossed the Yu Province Plain and are marching towards Central China. The defense of Jiangxia seems to be imperative, and the evacuation of government departments and major factories to the southwest is in full swing.

If Central China is lost, China will lose another important grain-producing area, and South China will hardly be spared.If the last barrier in North China is lost, China may not even be able to defend the Southwest, the last retreat route.

In North China and Central China, if any front collapses, perhaps the entire nation will be doomed!This is for all to see.

To put it bluntly, what China needs most at this time is nothing but time.

As long as there is enough time, China can train more soldiers to join the army. It doesn't matter if hundreds of thousands of troops are wiped out. There are hundreds of millions of young and strong in China. big.

This is cruel, but this was already the worst plan made by the Chinese high-level leaders at that time, and it was also the biggest advantage China had over Japan at that time, its population advantage.

As a result, at this juncture, the North China Front Army, the most powerful Japanese army, would rather choose a ceasefire than engage in negotiations. Wouldn't the stingy old man who finally got a respite be happy!

"Brother, it's a good thing that the Japanese are willing to cease fire, negotiate and exchange prisoners of war, but do you have to report this to the higher authorities so as not to be criticized by that person!" Wu Meizi reminded.

"Hey, I'm sure I want to say that the war in Central China is not going well now, that guy is in a state of distress, but he is really looking forward to a temporary cessation of the war in the north, so that he can use all the resources in Central China." The stingy old man laughed.

"What I am worried about now is not whether to talk about it, but how to talk about it and how long it should be delayed. The Japanese seem to attach great importance to this Fujiwara Seno, but no matter how important they are, it is only one person, even if it is them Even the emperor of the empire can't stop the inevitable war between China and Japan at this time."

It can only be said that the stingy old man's hairless head is really too shrewd, and he has completely grasped Shan Shanyuan's mind.

Yes, at this time, the war between China and Japan is no longer controlled by one person or even a group of people. It is promoted by a huge interest group.

Some people hope to be promoted in this war; some people hope to gain wealth from this war.
It's like a group of robbers who have already smelled the smell of money. Even if the bandit leader orders them to stop the robbery, it may be difficult to stop them.

This is what Shan Shanyuan thinks. He does his best to satisfy the Fujiwara family, but if the Chinese people have too much appetite, then I'm sorry, and they can only do whatever they want. Even if he has a prominent position, he can't stop the huge interest groups in the empire. An almost out-of-control torrent of greed.

Therefore, what the stingy old man is struggling with at this time is a question of speed.

"Brother, you forgot, you ordered the 17th Division to take the lead, and let them worry about things. You just need to sit on the Diaoyutai and watch. No matter what the Japanese send, the 17th Division dares to take it all!" The girl covered her mouth and smiled lightly.

"Haha, if you don't tell me, I didn't think about it. Then inform the Japanese and let them send lieutenant-level generals over. The standard is low. I am a dignified general and commander, and I will not accept it! Also, the negotiation is just around the corner. I am Linfen, and I will not go to other places." The stingy old man laughed.

This is actually a kind of temptation for the stingy old man. To see how much Sugimoto will value Fujiwara Seno, the rank of the negotiator is enough to explain.

To everyone's surprise, Shan Shanyuan made no secret of his eagerness.

The Japanese North China Front Army not only sent a negotiating delegation headed by Lieutenant General Saburo Okabe, Chief of Staff of the North China Front Army, but also invited a Brigadier General of the Western Garrison in the Pingjin Concession and a boss of a German foreign firm to accompany them.

This is to prevent the Chinese side from being dishonest and directly detaining Saburo Okabe, who has just been promoted to lieutenant general.

The Chinese can not give the Japanese face, but the Westerners must give the face. After all, the Chinese still want to get support from the Western world, and Shan Shanyuan is delicate and considerate.

The Chinese side really has to give these 'foreign adults' some face, at least, it will never give them the impression of not keeping their promises.

Of course, Shan Shanyuan asked them to move them, but it also cost a lot of money. For example, if they wanted to rent out their goods, the Japanese would not be allowed to search this kind of agreement, which made the Japanese feel very aggrieved.

Otherwise, since the western countries look down on the nature of the Japanese, why would they really think that the Japanese have a big face when they travel through mountains and rivers?

This virtually created a good condition for Tang Dao to enter Jincheng in the future, which can be regarded as a surprise.

It was quite troublesome for the Japanese to come over. They had to fly to Yuancheng Airport first, and then drive through the defense zone of the two armies to enter Linfen.

That would take at least four or five days.

"Commander Tang, our teacher said that this matter is your choice, and you can't leave it alone. I am the head of the negotiating delegation, and you must be the deputy head." He was the 17th Brigade of the 49th Division at the time. The long Geng Zhijie ran directly to Tang Dao's temporary residence.

"Fuck, this time my four-element group can't tell things apart!" Tang Dao was speechless, he had so much time to beep with the Japanese.

"The teacher said, with Tang Tuanzuo's eloquence and ability, at least he can ask the Japanese for one more artillery battalion." The major general brigade commander confidently relied on Tang Dao.

Your teacher is just about to put 'Tang Tuanzuo's thick skin' on the public screen, and Tang Dao really wants to roll his eyes over it.

But thinking about the guy Saburo Okabe is coming, anyway, he is still waiting for a reply from Hirajin at the moment, beating the child on a rainy day, and being idle is idle, so it's better to yell at the Japanese.

Then, Colonel Tang Dao, deputy head of the Chinese negotiating team, took his place.

Fujiwara Seno, who was shirtless and slapped every day, was already used to the coldness in the mountains, but now he shivered suddenly.

It seems that something bad is about to happen.

Indeed, it would be uncomfortable for anyone to sell it as pork by the catty.

But Tang Tuanzuo knew how to do it like this, and the price was secretly marked for the front hoof and the back seat.

If you want to live, that's another price tag.
