Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

In the Japanese barracks, Qing Tian Gangxin sat kneeling on the ground. In front of him were two pieces of white gauze. He slowly raised the short knife, holding the scabbard in his left hand, and slowly pulled out the knife with his right hand. The sheath was placed on a piece of gauze, and the left hand picked up another piece of gauze, carefully wrapping the knife and hand together.

At this moment, the door was knocked open with a "bang", and the orderly shouted: "Captain, what are you doing?"

Aota Goshin asked with a smile: "Are you His Majesty's samurai?"

The orderly saw that Goshin Aota wanted to commit seppuku, but he didn't expect him to ask such a question, and he instinctively answered "Yes".

Qingtian Gangxin said with a smile: "As a samurai, one should calmly accept everything that fate bestows." He raised the knife and pointed the tip of the knife at his lower abdomen. The orderly fell to his knees and cried, "Captain..."

Aota Goshin said with a smile: "Do you remember the conversation between Ota Michikan and the assassin?"

The orderly looked at him blankly, and Aota Goshin said: "Ota Michikan, the builder of Edo Castle, died at the hands of the assassin. When the assassin's spear pierced his chest, the assassin said a poem to him: 'Only Only then did I know how to cherish life', do you know what Ota Michikan said?"

Goshin Aota went on to say: "He didn't panic in the slightest, he said: 'Unless he has already put his life aside.' See, this is the real samurai, this is the 'courage' of the samurai, keeping the heart at all times calm and face everything bravely.”

After finishing speaking, the knife in his hand pierced his stomach fiercely, but he didn't make a sound. He held the knife and pulled it to the right. The knife cut a big hole in his stomach, and he plopped Falling to the ground, he murmured, "Is my opponent the man named Lin Yuan?"

The No.18 Regiment suffered a disastrous defeat. When the news of Regiment Captain Goshin Aota's suicide reached the Japanese Army Headquarters in Fengtian, Da Shanyan, the supreme commander of the Japanese Army who invaded Northeast China, was talking to his orderlies, who were standing respectfully behind him. in front of.

On the table in front of Dashanyan, there was a box made of mahogany. He opened the box, and there were seven cigars inside. Cigars are very picky about temperature and humidity. People who really enjoy cigars must Will put it in a mahogany box.

While cutting off the head of the cigar gracefully, he said to the orderly: "During the Saying naval battle, I was the main gunner. Togo Heihachiro and Yamamoto Gonbei carried the shells for me. Now, one of them is the commander of the United Fleet, and the other is Director of the Naval Military Affairs Bureau, tell me, fate is not very interesting..."

As he said that, he pulled out a match. This match was much longer than ordinary matches. It was specially designed for lighting cigars. The sulfur on the match was specially treated so that it would not produce a strong sulfur smell and affect the quality of life when lit. Hearing the aroma of the cigar, he was about to light a match when a messenger came in and said, "General, there is an urgent military situation. Regiment No. 18 was defeated, and the regiment leader committed seppuku."

After hearing this, Da Shanyan slapped the table hard, the expensive cigar box was knocked to the ground, and the cigars inside jumped out happily. Da Shanyan said: "Call the officers for a meeting immediately."

As Da Shanyan said, he stepped out of the house. When he went out, he saw the orderly picking up the cigars that fell on the ground. He smiled contemptuously and said, "You don't need to pick it up. The Qing Dynasty is a really delicious cigar."

The Japanese army that invaded Northeast China this time was mainly composed of the First Division and the Second Division. These two divisions were unified into the First Army, and the commander was General Da Shanyan.

In the meeting room, Lieutenant General Yamaji Motoji, head of the First Division, and other officers were already waiting. Since the Second Division was stationed on the front line of Lushun Dalian, they did not come to the meeting held in Fengtian.

At the beginning of the meeting, Da Shanyan first said: "The Qing army used this trick very beautifully. I don't know who made it. Isn't the guard of Jinzhou called Wu Yuankai? Does he have this ability?"

Yamaji Motoji was blind in his right eye when he was young, and his squinted right eye made him look particularly sinister. He sneered and said: "No matter who it is, it is not the opponent of our Great Japanese Empire, but I don't think this move will be Wu Yuankai's handwriting, when he was in Phoenix City, he ran away without any resistance."

Shandi Yuanji was talking about the Japanese army's attack on the Northeast. At that time, Shandi Yuanji attacked Fenghuang City in Shengjing from North Korea. Wu Yuankai abandoned the city after a little resistance.

Da Shanyan said: "Didn't the Qing court bring in a new man named Lin Yuan?"

At this time, Colonel Imazu Konore, the commander of the First Field Artillery Regiment, said, "Lin Yuan? Is that the Lin Yuan who defeated the Navy? Isn't he in Beijing?"

At this time, the head of the First Infantry Brigade, Major General Nogi Nozomi said: "It seems that we were deceived by that man named Lin Yuan. They said that they would hold a ceremony of worshiping the commander, but they were actually confusing us." In history, Nogi Noki, together with Togo Heihachiro, was touted by the Japanese as the "Military God".

Takashi Imatsu looked at Nogi Nori with disdain. In the Japanese army, it is well known that the army and the navy are at odds, but there is also discord between the various arms. For the cavalry, the infantry's brigade commander and regimental commander were very upset by letting the infantry make their own horses.

Imazu Takashi saw that his question was answered by Nogi Nozomi, and felt very unhappy. He usually disliked Nogi Nozomi, and in front of his close subordinates, when mentioning Nogi Nozomi, he always called him "the pardoned captain".Why do you say that?It turns out that Nogi Nogi was the captain of the No.14 regiment in the Southwest War in Japan. He suffered a defeat and the military flag was snatched by his opponent. In the Japanese army, the military flag is a symbol of honor and life for an army. The seriousness of losing the military flag is no different from treason and collaborating with the enemy.

According to the usual practice, such a joint captain must commit suicide by harakiri, but Nogi Nozomi asked the emperor for pardon, so Imazu Takano gave him such a nickname. In fact, the young Satamura Yoshiichi of the First Brigade of Engineers and the First Brigade of Cavalry The old Shao Zuo Akiyama Haogu felt that Nogi Nozomi was awkward, but because he was a small Shao Zuo, it was difficult to show it.

Xiao Jinjin said: "What is the background of this Lin Yuan, it seems that he is quite capable!"

Da Shanyan sneered and said: "No matter what this Lin Yuan is, I have already thought of a way to make him come and go!"
