Rise from eight hundred.

"I am Mr. Shen's friend and the current battalion commander of the 4th Battalion of the Sixings Regiment, Shangguan Yun!"

The visitor was surprisingly candid, revealing his identity without waiting for the big bear to ask.

Even though Daxiong Yunosuke had roughly guessed the identity of the visitor, otherwise there would be no secret code for contacting him, he was still startled when he heard the other party's military title, and anger filled his eyes.

During the day, weren't the more than 2600 men under his command ambushed and dispersed by the guys from the Four Elements Regiment? And this murderer actually dared to stand in front of him openly. Not to mention that he was Shen Laoliu's friend, even if Shen Laoliu himself was here, he would definitely die.

"Yo Xi! Mr. Shangguan Yun, I admire your bravery, but unfortunately, the more than 2600 young lives of the boys under my command cannot be lost in vain. Someone needs to bury them with them. You, the battalion commander, can be regarded as the interest paid in advance. ." Da Xiong Xingzhi, who had been stunned for several seconds, smiled instead of angry, and gave a thumbs up to Shangguan Yun, who was standing in front of him calmly.

But this smile is full of murderous intent!
"Your Excellency Da Xiong, I think you may have made a wrong number." Shangguan Yun did not seem to see the murderous intention of the Japanese Army Major General, but instead seriously corrected the other party's mistake.

"In the ambush conducted by our regiment at noon on the 14th, a total of 1934 people of your army were killed, and 1148 guns of various types and 9 artillery pieces were seized."

This was a number calculated after careful counting two hours after the ambush battle. As the second commander of the Si Xing Regiment, Shangguan Yun naturally knew all the treasures.

"Baga! You're dead, you're dead!" Daxiong Xingzhi's eyes turned black, and he suddenly pulled out his command knife and pointed it at Shangguan Yun, who was standing in front of him and talking.

The two Japanese officers who were following Shangguan Yun also aimed their Southern Type [-] pistols at the extremely courageous Chinese soldier.

The Japanese admire warriors, but the enemy's bravery is their poison, especially when they are showing off with the lives of their own colleagues, which even a fool cannot tolerate.

"Your Excellency Daxiong, don't you want to think about the reason why there is such a difference in numbers between you and me? Our regimental commander knows that Your Excellency Daxiong is a man who loves soldiers as much as his son, and will never lose his mind before knowing the answer." Shangguan Yun smiled slightly when facing the sword and gun.

"Also to be honest, please don't be too angry, Your Excellency Daxiong. The swords and guns of the 9th Infantry Regiment of the 36th Division that I saw with my own eyes on the bank of the Suzhou River back then were much brighter than this knife of yours."

"You" Daxiong Konosuke's eyes kept flashing fiercely, but after a few suffocating seconds, he inserted the knife into the scabbard at his waist and waved his hand to signal his two henchmen to put away their guns and go out.

He pointed to the chair next to him: "Mr. Shangguan, no, it should be Major Shangguan. Please take a seat. Even if your and our armies are at war, our empire does not have the habit of killing envoys. But daybreak is approaching. I hope you and I can speak openly and honestly." Let’s talk.”

"Okay! The first thing I was ordered to do was to tell you that because of Mr. Shen's suggestion, our department has not killed all members of the 4th Division. However, anyone who throws away their weapons and gives up resistance will be punished in accordance with international law. Its official prisoner-of-war treatment included a total of 623 wounded and non-wounded soldiers."

"Oh?" Daxiong Yunosuke narrowed his eyes slightly.

Perhaps he had guessed some clues from Shangguan Yun's previous words, so he didn't seem too surprised.

In the understanding of the Japanese Army Major General, this should also be the reason why the Chinese Major Battalion Commander dared to come alone.

He was sure that as long as he dared to attack this Chinese major, tomorrow morning, at least half, no, maybe all of the more than 600 prisoners of war of the 4th Division would be hung in front of the Yuncheng city wall defense line.

The 4th Division had just entered North China and had no previous experience of fighting with the Si Xing Regiment, but this did not prevent him from knowing a little about the style of the colonel commander who was called the "devil" by the troops on the North China Front.

Under the colonel commander, unless it was a function, there would be no living imperial officers and soldiers at all.

Use 600 to exchange for one. Don't make it too easy.

"Then I have to ask Major Shangguan Yun to take good care of the officers and soldiers of our division. If your regiment still exists after this battle, I will definitely try my best to pay a price that satisfies you." Da Xiong Yunsuke said calmly.

"Don't worry, Mr. Daxiong. The regimental commander asked us that even if our army has no food, we will definitely ensure that each person in the 4th Division has 1 or [-] meters per day. There will never be an incident of starvation due to food shortage." Shangguan Yun But he smiled slightly.

"Soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Empire will never be blackmailed for this." Big Bear Konosuke's face suddenly darkened, his eyes once again gleamed fiercely, and he stared at Shangguan Yun fiercely.

Shangguan Yun was calm and composed.

Before coming, Tang Tuanzuo specially sent a long message to inform him one by one about the personality characteristics of this Japanese Army Major General who usually likes to be fierce and voluptuous.

This man would definitely be a successful businessman in business, but as a military officer, he lacked a very important quality.

Soldiers will not compromise with their opponents for anything. In the interests of the country and the nation, anyone can be sacrificed, including themselves.

But businessmen will not overturn the negotiation table easily unless they have to.

From the first moment he saw Konosuke Daxiong, when the Japanese Army Major General did not kill him immediately, Shangguan Yun knew that Tang Dao was counting on this guy to death, and he could achieve almost 90.00% of his goal here.

"This is the first thing. If there is anything else, Major Shangguan Yun might as well finish it. Then you can leave. I hope we will have a chance to meet again after the war." Seeing that his opponent had no fear, Da Xiong Yunosuke felt helpless in his eyes and tried his best. Stay calm and say coldly.

The Japanese Army Major General knew that the Chinese would not be kind enough to come and tell him specifically, "We have more than 600 of your prisoners here." Even if Shen Laoliu was the one pulling the strings, they would not send such a high-level officer.

Thinking of the smiling Shen Laoliu, the Japanese Army Major General couldn't help but have a headache. The cunning Chinese seemed to be able to read his mind and use language to break through his defenses little by little, and finally forced him to do what he wanted. Make a compromise.

The Chinese Army Major in front of him actually gave him such a feeling, but now that Yuncheng had nothing to lose, he didn't want to accept any more temptations from the devil.

"The second thing is that my original intention was to let Mr. Daxiong appreciate the firepower of our artillery group, but the commander of our regiment said that Mr. Daxiong is a veteran who has been in the army for many years, so we should not use our heavy firepower. It’s embarrassing, why not ask Mr. Big Bear to enjoy the large fireworks set off by our army this evening to add some fun to this winter night.”

"What do you mean?" Big Bear Konosuke's face tensed up.

His subconscious told him that the Chinese were going to cause trouble again, and it would be a big one.

"Your Excellency Da Xiong can order your officers and soldiers in the area about 300 meters away from the northwest city wall to find shelter first to avoid accidental injuries from fireworks." Shangguan Yun said while looking at the old-fashioned clock in the headquarters. "In about 15 minutes, we should light the fireworks fuses. Why don't you, Mr. Big Bear, come with me to enjoy them?"

Ten minutes later, the two of them were standing on the third floor platform of a long-vacant restaurant about 10 meters away from the corner of the northwest city wall of Yuncheng.

Looking from here, the relatively thick city wall of Yuncheng can be seen in full view, but nothing can be seen in the dark wilderness outside the city wall.

The Japanese Army Major General and the Chinese Army Lieutenant Colonel stood side by side in the darkness. Under the restaurant and in the room were at least one fully armed Japanese infantry squadron soldier.

"Are you planning to dig tunnels to blast the city wall fortifications?" Big Bear Konosuke looked at the dark wilderness, his face as iron as stone.

"Your Excellency Daxiong is indeed a famous general in the Japanese Army. My regimental commander has long said that as long as you listen to my proposal, you will definitely guess our intentions." Shangguan Yun smiled slightly.

"However, what our regimental commander wants to ask you, Mr. Daxiong, to see is not the way we set off fireworks, but to show the quality of our fireworks. I think you, Mr. Daxiong, will definitely be interested in our excellent craftsmanship in making fireworks. .”

Daxiong Konosuke didn't speak anymore, and looked across the nearly 5-meter-high city wall to the darkness outside the wall.

The Si Xing Regiment's tactic of relying on civil engineering work to dig in and release explosives for blasting was not unfamiliar, and it was indeed useful. However, just thinking of relying on this tactic to frighten him, an army major general who commands thousands of people, was really overthinking.

But the Chinese people's unequivocal self-confidence made this man feel a little guilty for no reason, just like Shen Laoliu a few days ago.

"Starting soon!" Shangguan Yun took out his pocket watch and took a look, then took out two balls of cotton and stuffed them into his ears, and handed the cotton to the Japanese Army Major General beside him. Big Bear Konosuke resisted the Chinese Devil's kindness and even picked up a telescope.

He wanted to take a closer look at how much the Chinese's "fireworks" could shock him. With the Chinese's technological level, it was difficult to even make matches?

A ball of bright light burst out about 200 meters away from the city wall. Its radiance was so powerful that Konosuke the Big Bear couldn't help but close his eyes as he stared at the dark area.

Then, a loud bang reached the ears of Daxiong Yunsuke, who was more than 500 meters away from the explosion site.

Except for this loud noise, the whole world seemed to have ceased to exist at that moment.

Major General Okuma Konosuke was not stupid at this moment, but confused.

He was stunned by the loud noise.

The confused Japanese Army Major General's mind went blank for at least ten seconds.

Only ten seconds later, he stared blankly at the big fireball rising into the sky and asked instinctively: "How many kilograms of explosives did you use?"

He clearly saw the Chinese Army Major talking with his mouth open, but in his ears he could hear nothing but a roar.

The huge explosion made the Japanese Army Major General temporarily deaf.

There is a saying in China: Listen to others’ advice and eat enough! The consequence of stubbornly maintaining the demeanor of an army major general at this time was that he almost became deaf.

This means that there is still some distance. The 4th Division was only more than 200 meters away from the explosion site. At least more than 300 soldiers who had no chance to be reminded have become completely deaf. The fragile eardrum will be difficult to repair in the future. , let alone this time.

In fact, not to mention the poorly prepared Japanese, even Brigadier Kong Da of the 400th Independent Brigade, who was hiding in a trench no more than 46 meters away from the explosion site, opened his mouth wide and ate a mouthful of ashes.

Even the major general and brigade commander, who has been in the army for 20 years, has never experienced the suffocating feeling of being swept away by a wave of air.

However, opening his mouth wide to eat ashes did not scare the brigade commander, but not opening his mouth wide to relieve the pressure on his chest. He was afraid that his heart would be crushed by the pressure brought by such a big explosion.

In the trenches located 400 meters away from the explosion point, the Chinese personnel were full of dust, and the trenches in some places were even collapsed by the earthquake. Fortunately, there were people nearby, and even if someone was buried by the collapsed earth wall, they were quickly dug out.

In fact, although they knew how powerful the 'Cyclone Explosive' was, the Chinese still underestimated the power of this new type of explosive, resulting in 8 injuries on the Chinese side. Moreover, even Brigadier Kong and Leng Feng of the 46th Independent Brigade were close to the explosion point. area.

After the war, Leng Feng, who had won first-class military merit, reviewed this at the regimental summary meeting.

The dissipation of explosive energy decreases geometrically as the distance increases. At a distance of more than 400 meters, the explosive power is still so huge, let alone the city wall area only 200 meters away from the explosion point.

The city wall was shattered by nearly ten meters, leaving a large gap. If Major General Konosuke Okuma, who "rather trusts his presence than his absence", had not wisely ordered all the Japanese infantry in the area to evacuate, the casualties would not have been only the 30 or so. It's so simple for people to be injured by 'thrown objects from high altitude'.

That was the effect that a full 200 kilograms of cyclone explosives could produce. In the morning, the Japanese infantry outside the city looked at the deep pit about six to seven meters deep and about the size of a small pond, and all of them felt their scalps numb.

With such powerful explosives, the Chinese did not need to dig under the city wall. Even from a distance of more than ten meters, they could blow dozens of meters of city wall into the sky.

"Ten tunnels. After the engineers of our Fourth Army Regiment arrived in the afternoon, they quickly started digging from more than 400 meters away. If your army uses the city wall as a fortification to defend the city, by tomorrow afternoon, there will be ten such tunnels, reaching a distance of [-] meters from the Yuncheng city wall. About ten meters away." In the light of the sky, Shangguan Yun used two fingers to smile and sign a 'ten' that everyone in the world could understand.

Although he still couldn't hear clearly what Shangguan Yun said, Daxiong Yunsuke could understand what that number represented, and his face turned pale instantly.

If so many explosives could be placed in ten tunnels, it would be enough to blow away hundreds of meters of city walls. Not only would the carefully laid out defenses suffer heavy damage, but what was even more terrifying was what would happen to the defenders on and behind the city walls?
The violent air waves were mixed with tons of earth and bricks falling down, and not many people could escape the disaster, even if they were made of steel and iron.

The Japanese Army Major General wanted to open his mouth to refute. Such a violent explosion would require at least 800 kilograms of explosives. If there were ten tunnels, that would be 8000 kilograms. He did not believe that the Chinese could carry so many explosives during the march. This was almost impossible. of.

But when the words came to his lips, Big Bear Konosuke swallowed them alive. The Chinese could use 800 kilograms or more of explosives to set off large fireworks for him, which meant that they had more explosives as a basis.

And looking at the past performance of the Four Elements Group, his opponents didn't think they would defeat them that time, but didn't the Four Elements Group have the last laugh that time? That is definitely the most amazing army in the North China Theater and the most feared by the entire North China Front.

After a long silence, until the roaring in his ears gradually subsided, Daxiong Yunzosuke waved his hand to ask the several guards behind him to step back, and said with an ugly face: "Major Shangguan Yun is here just to demonstrate for me. ? Now your goal has been achieved, but the Imperial Warriors of my 4th Division will never back down because of this."

"Mr. Shen asked me to tell Mr. Daxiong something. There is an old saying in China: If you keep the green hills, you will not have to worry about having no firewood! If you lose your life, you will lose everything. Of course, even if Mr. Daxiong is restricted by military orders, you must persist to the end. , the promise he made to you before is still valid, but I don’t know if there will be anyone who will accept it." Shangguan Yun looked into the distance and whispered in a voice that only Daxiong Yunsuke could hear.

"Our army is here not to fight to the death with the 4th Division, nor are we asking for Yuncheng. What we want is just the little food and ammunition in Yuncheng. As you know, Mr. Daxiong, our supplies are very difficult. "

"There are more than one million kilograms of grain in Yuncheng, and you just want to take it away with just a few people? If you have five trains, I can give it to you with both hands." Daxiong Yunzosuke's face was full of disdain.

Like Mr. Shen, this is another example of a lion opening its mouth.

"Since Mr. Daxiong said so, let's change the method. We can not take away a grain of rice, but the noble army in Zhongtiao Mountain cannot take away a grain of rice from here. What do you think?" Shangguan Yun said very Said sincerely.

Baga, here and there are different words, but the essence is the same! Daxiong Yunosuke wanted to draw his sword.

This shameless behavior is really very familiar!

"This is Mr. Shen's idea again!"

"No wonder Mr. Shen said that although I have only known you, Mr. Daxiong, for half a day, we felt like old friends at first sight, because Mr. Daxiong, you are a rare smart person in the Japanese army." Shangguan Yun smiled after hearing this. "You guessed it."

"Damn it, I knew it must be him, this disgustingly cunning Chinese!" Big Bear Konosuke's face was full of resentment.

"Mr. Shen said that he will have a drink with Mr. Daxiong one day!"

"I'm sorry, I have no such idea at all. Please tell him for me that I don't want to see him again in this life." Daxiong Yunzhi turned around angrily.

"In half an hour, Major Shangguan Yun, please leave our 4th Division position. We have not seen each other today."

In the darkness, Shangguan Yun smiled brightly.

Tang Tuanzuo was simply amazing. He had recorded almost all the reactions of the Japanese army major general, including his arrogant acceptance at the end.
