my bright sword career

Chapter 208 Countermeasures
The battlefield tens of miles east of the Qingyuan River, less than [-] hours after the war, another Japanese army arrived here, but this army was obviously different from the general Japanese army. Protective masks, and wearing heavy protective clothing, these people are busy at the moment.

"We have just dissected two corpses... One of the corpses had red and swollen throat and vocal cords, the trachea was filled with thin foamy liquid, and nearly 2 grams of blood had infiltrated the secretion of the left lung. His lungs were more than twice the normal volume , It feels hard. The internal organs are also full of blood, twice the normal weight, and the blood vessels on the surface of the brain have produced countless small bubbles...

The other body died 18 hours ago. There was a large area of ​​light brown pigmentation on his body, but his wrist was not where he used to wear the watch. The lower part of the throat and the vocal cords are covered by yellowish mucous membranes, the bronchi are filled with pus, the right lung is atrophied in large areas, and there are countless trachea inflammations in the cross-section, the spots are red, and there is pus in the spots, and a lot of pus has flowed out of the bronchi and formed Fixed pustules, lungs congested with cysts, brain tissue massively congested due to edema...”

A middle-aged military officer wearing the rank of Masterpiece was handing over a report to Tada Jun, the commander of the North China Front Army who came in person after hearing the news.

Tada Toshi's report is still on the table made of ammunition boxes. This report is meaningless to him, at least it has no impact on the current battle situation.

He stared at the middle-aged officer in front of him, and said coldly: "Master Xiong Cang, you must know that what our imperial army needs now is not an autopsy report, but protective measures or countermeasures."

This middle-aged officer was none other than First Commander Xiong Cangjie, the commander of the Japanese wave unit 8604 who hurried over from Guangzhou by plane.

Speaking of Unit 731, which specialized in bacterial warfare and committed heinous crimes in China, it is naturally famous in later generations, and later generations even made movies such as Black Sun 731 for this.

But what many people don’t know is that in fact, the Japanese army’s bacterial forces in China are not limited to 731, but there are four in total. Any army has committed no fewer crimes than 731. After the war, they tried their best to cover up, so the other three branches are not well known.

And this Wave 8604 unit is one of them. Unlike the 731 operating outside the customs, the Wave 8604 Unit mainly operates in Guangdong. There are more than [-] innocent people in Hong Kong.

Xiong Cangjie is around forty this year. Perhaps because he has been engaged in bacterial research all year round, this person exudes a cold aura, and ordinary people will feel lingering fear when they see him.

Hearing Tada Jun's words, Xiong Cangjie bowed slightly: "Your Excellency, there is only one way to equip the soldiers of the empire with protective measures, and that is to equip all soldiers with protective clothing... the same protective clothing as the Chinese people .”

"This is impossible!"

Tada Jun waved his hand impatiently, "The cost of a set of full-body protective clothing is comparable to that of a Type [-] heavy machine gun. Even if the Empire of Japan went bankrupt, it would not be able to equip so many soldiers. What I want to ask is, the Chinese people use it?" What kind of poisonous gas is it, is there a way for us to create it and produce it on a large scale?"

"This... Your Excellency Commander, the production of chemical weapons must be based on a well-developed chemical industry, and the chemical industry of the Empire of Japan... in the past few years, our only achievement is the industrial production of phosgene and Louis morale , As for the mustard gas with such a strong toxicity, we have not been able to produce it, or even if we can produce it, we can only produce it in a small amount in the laboratory, and currently do not have the ability to produce it on a large scale."

"Then if we do our best research, how long is it expected to produce it?" Tada Jun asked again.

Seeing Jun Tada's longing eyes, Xiong Cangjie's heart sank, and he could only carefully state the reality of Japanese industry: "Your Excellency, with all due respect, there are currently no countries in the world capable of mass-producing this poisonous gas." Three, that's the United States, Great Britain, and Germany...and maybe the Soviet Union.

However, due to mutual checks and balances, these countries dare not take the lead in using poison gas. "

"Then tell me, where did that Gao Hongming get such a powerful poisonous gas?"

As soon as Xiong Cangjie lowered his head, an unknown fire rose from Tada Jun's heart.

"This one……"

Xiong Cangjie was also speechless. Huaxia's industry is notoriously poor. It can't even produce shells with a caliber of more than 70 mm. How could it be possible to produce this most advanced poisonous gas in the world? This is what the Japanese army wants to break their heads. Can't figure out why.

Just when Tada Jun couldn't help getting angry, the guard reported: "Your Excellency, Commander Ishihara Kanji and Iwase Takehiko are back."

"Let them in quickly."

Soon, Ishihara Wanji and Iwase Takehiko walked in hand in hand.

Seeing the two of them at first glance, Jun Tada almost couldn't help coming.

How can these two people still look well-dressed on weekdays?The uniforms of generals and officers had long been covered with mud, and their faces were also pitch black. At first glance, they looked no different from refugees on the street.

Seeing that his friend returned safely, Tada Jun was overjoyed and stood up to greet him, but he couldn't help asking: "Ishihara-kun, how did you become like this?"

Ishihara smiled wryly: "Your Excellency, Commander, it's pretty good if we can save a little life, and this embarrassment is nothing."

Tada Toshi pointed to the chair beside him: "Sit down and talk, Iwase-kun...you should sit down too."

"Hi!"

Ishihara thanked him with a smile, then sat down, and said, "Commander Tada, we were attacked by the Chinese people with poison gas at six o'clock in the morning the day before yesterday. The Chinese people used nearly a hundred artillery pieces of various calibers to attack Our position carried out the poisonous gas attack in our dreams. In just half an hour, no less than ten tons of ammunition were thrown at us, and the density of the ammunition was very high.

After being poisoned, many soldiers of the Imperial Army quickly congested and swollen their faces, covered with a large number of erythema, and around the erythema, there were many pearl-shaped water cannons, especially for the seriously wounded, large water cannons formed by the fusion of small blisters appeared on the lower part of the face and neck Some people also developed painful blisters on the backs of their thighs, buttocks, and even their buttocks. This was because they touched the ground, the land contaminated by poisonous gas, and the poison penetrated into the skin.

At the very beginning, our field hospitals were full of wounded, and there was no specific medicine to treat soldiers who were poisoned, so we could only watch and let it develop.

Among the seriously wounded, some died directly from the poison burn, and some died from the erosion caused by the poison gas in the throat and lungs. The wounded were coughing constantly, suffering from pain and weakness. It was even completely stripped into a cylinder, and some victims died with the trachea completely stuck from the beginning to the end.

It can be said that my Sixteenth Division collapsed in less than two hours without firing a single shot. If my guards hadn't pulled me out in time, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to sit here with you now speak. "

Listening to Ishihara Waner's narration, even Xiong Cangjieyi, an expert in bacterial warfare, felt chills down his back.

After Tada Jun finished listening, he gritted his teeth and said to Xiong Cangjie: "Master Xiong Cang, I want to ask you something right now, is there any way for you to take revenge on the Chinese people immediately, and you must let the Chinese people have a taste of imperial bacterial warfare." It's amazing!"

Xiong Cangjie pondered for a while, and just about to speak, Ishihara Waner said first: "Commander Tada, until there is no better means of check and balance, I suggest you not to do this, otherwise, once it triggers large-scale revenge from the Chinese people , is not a good thing for the empire."

"Massive revenge?"

Tada Jun said sternly: "Mr. Shi Yuan, don't forget, this is China. If that Gao Hongming dares to use poison gas against the imperial army again, then we will also use poison gas to attack the people of China. I want to see... Who killed the most people?"

"Absolutely not!"

As soon as Jun Tada’s words fell, Ishihara Waner stopped him anxiously, “Commander Tada, have you ever thought that if we do this, if Gao Hongming becomes angry and joins forces with the Chongqing government to send a plane, it will be a huge blow to the empire itself.” What about large-scale poison gas throwing, what will happen then?"

Ishihara Wan'er's words struck Tada Jun's heart like a thunderbolt. He immediately remembered that on May 1938, 5, the Chinese government sent two Martin-20WC bombers to Fukuoka, Japan, and dropped millions of leaflets.

Although the two planes did not cause any damage to Japan, they also took the Japanese government by surprise.

Tada Jun just remembered that since these two planes can drop leaflets, they can also drop poison gas bombs, and once the mainland is attacked by the poisonous gas of the Chinese, it will bring more disasters and losses to Japan than simple leaflets Thousands of times.

After pondering for a long time, Toshi Tada said: "Didn't Takako report that after all these years of war, the Chinese government's planes have been almost exhausted, and they have no power to fight back against the empire? Where did they get the planes to bomb the empire? "

Shi Yuan shook his head with a smile: "There is no absolute, who can guarantee that the Chinese will not have bombers in their hands, we can't make this bet."

Jun Tada was silent... yes... who can guarantee this kind of thing, once the mainland of the empire is attacked by poison gas because of him, so that the whole country is shocked, he, the commander, may have to be cut open.

"Then what do you think we should do now, the imperial army has suffered such a heavy loss, someone must be responsible?"

"Your Excellency, Commander, don't worry, I am the commander of the [-]th Division, and I will take this responsibility." Ishihara smiled bitterly: "However... before the military police bring me back to the mainland, I suggest that you still have to It takes some real action..."
