my bright sword career

Chapter 370
Konai Nishikawa, the captain of the First Regiment of the Second Japanese Heavy Artillery Brigade, sat in the body of a 98-type full-track artillery tractor with a cigarette in his mouth, looking at the busy soldiers around him and the dawn The eyes of the sky are full of impatience.

As a high-achieving student who graduated from the Army Artillery Department, Nishikawa Kangnai naturally has the capital to be proud of.

These days, the artillery is a serious technical arm, and its pay and status are much higher than that of the infantry. In addition, since the July [-]th Incident, the Second Heavy Artillery Brigade he belongs to has repeatedly made military exploits. The reason why he was promoted from a second lieutenant to a colonel in [-].

When Nishikawa Konai was bored in every possible way, a major strode up to him and said loudly: "Your Excellency, all the artillery has been parked, and the camouflage net has been laid."

"Yo Xi!"

Nishikawa Konai nodded with satisfaction: "Mr. Sanpu has worked hard, you tell the troops that you can prepare breakfast."

Major hesitated for a moment, "Your Majesty, we just laid out the air defense net. Should we wait for the air defense firepower to be deployed before letting the soldiers eat breakfast? It was repeatedly emphasized in the information sent from the front. This time we are facing China. The army has a very elite air force, and told us to be careful, so please remember not to be careless."

"Miura-kun, you are too nervous."

Nishikawa Konai laughed, jumped out of the car and patted him on the shoulder, "The Chinese air force was completely wiped out by the Army Aviation of the Empire of Japan three years ago, where is the elite air force? Those infantrymen were just making excuses for their own incompetence."

"But……"

"Nothing but."

Kannai Nishikawa interrupted him, "Those cowards have been frightened by the Chinese people, think about it for yourself, what kind of life did we live along the way for these cowards?
Since entering Zhongtiao Mountain, we have lost more than 20 non-combat personnel, and even damaged a Type [-] heavy cannon. I dare not even report this to the brigade commander, do you understand? "

"Hi...I see!"

Looking at the captain with a displeased expression on his face, the Major really understands it all too well.

The heavy artillery brigade is equipped with heavy artillery, and the lightest one weighs dozens of tons. Such artillery has very high requirements for roads. It is already very difficult to enter Zhongtiao Mountain, let alone marching at night, which is very difficult. It is geometrically increasing.

In the past few days after entering Zhongtiao Mountain, they have experienced dozens of non-combat attrition in order to hurry. There was even a truck that drove into a ditch at night and damaged an artillery. This is what dissatisfied Nishikawa Kangnai the most. reason.

In his opinion, it was all because of the stories that stupid infantry units made up to avoid punishment, but let the heavy artillery brigade take the blame, the world is really unfair.

Just as Nishikawa Konai was getting more and more angry, a Japanese soldier hurried over to report, "Your Excellency, a team came outside, claiming to be the third battalion of the Eighth Infantry Regiment of the 31st Division, and was ordered to meet us. .”

"The 31st Division?"

Konai Nishikawa, who was already in a bad mood, was furious when he heard the words: "Baga... When does the Heavy Artillery Brigade need someone to protect it? Is the 31st Division humiliating us? Tell those idiots right away, the Second Heavy Artillery Brigade You don’t need their protection, let them roll back wherever they came from!”

"Wait a moment."

Shao Zuo quickly stopped the furious Nishikawa Konai, "Your Excellency, we may dislike them, but we can't just drive them back. Once these people return to the 31st Division, report the situation to Miyazaki Shigesaburo Division truthfully. In the long run we'll all be in trouble."

Major Miura's words calmed the angry Nishikawa Konai. Whether he admits it or not, it doesn't matter if you say it's a humiliation or look down on it. The 31st Division can send a unit to meet them, at least in terms of politeness.

If you insist on driving people away, everything will be normal in the future. Once something happens to their alliance, they can push the responsibility away. I have done my duty, and you drove people away. , you can't blame me if something goes wrong.

The person who can become the captain of the regiment cannot be an idiot. Nishikawa Konai quickly calmed down: "Okay, call that major."

Soon, a 27-year-old major was brought before him.

I saw someone who came to salute him: "Report Your Excellency, the commander of the 31rd Battalion of the 58th Regiment of the [-]st Division, Nishimura Nanao, has been ordered to report to you."

"The 58th Regiment?"

Konai Nishikawa took a look at the other party, with a faint expression on his face, "Did the head of your division ask you to protect us?"

"Your Excellency, you misunderstood."

The major, who claimed to be Nishimura Seven, was disguised by Murata Shuzo.

Shuzo Murata explained: "Your Excellency, Head of the Division, is very happy with the arrival of the Heavy Artillery Brigade. Your Excellency, the Head of the Division, is afraid that you are not familiar with the roads in Zhongtiao Mountain. In addition, the guerrillas in Zhongtiao Mountain are very active recently, so we sent Come over and lead the way for you, so as to prevent you from suffering unnecessary losses."

"The head of the Miyazaki division has a heart..."

Konai Nishikawa was furious in his heart, what Murata Shuzo said before was quite normal, but the latter sentence seemed to him to be a slap in the face for eating fruit.

What does it mean to avoid unnecessary losses, what does it mean to lead the way, are you sarcastic that we don't even know how to read a map?
But even though he was furious, the most basic city was still there, and he nodded with a smile on his face, "In that case, then there is the Major of Laoxi Village, and you should take your people around to guard against it now." Bar."

"Hi!"

Shuzo Murata seemed expressionless, but he was overjoyed in his heart. He bowed to Konai Nishikawa and left.

As soon as Shuzo Murata left, Major Miura felt a little sorry, "Your Excellency, Major Nishimura just arrived, and they were sent to guard without even eating. Isn't that too..."

Nishikawa Kangnai said coldly: "What are you afraid of? Isn't their 31st Division very capable? Then why not do it for a while, especially this Nishimura Major, who has an aristocratic attitude whether he talks or walks. It's disgusting."

"Aristocratic posture?" Miura looked at him with some puzzlement.

"Believe me, it's absolutely right." Nishikawa Kannai's tone was very firm: "I can smell the disgusting smell on those Tokyo guys from aristocratic backgrounds from ten miles away, absolutely unmistakable."

I have to say that Nishikawa Konai's intuition is very sensitive. Murata Shuzo is indeed from an aristocratic family, but he never dreamed that this major who came from the same country as him and graduated from the same military academy, at this moment, because of his permission , The entire camp of the First Wing of the Heavy Artillery Brigade was clearly observed by him.
