The Republic of Heroes

Oda Yuji and Akiyama Yoshio watched disappointedly as Mizukawa Kengo walked into the staff headquarters.An hour was wasted in vain, without any breakthrough discoveries. The major general who was walking did not do some incredible actions as they expected, or met some people with sensitive identities.

"Stop, who?"

After all, the staff headquarters is not an ordinary place, and the patrol troops deployed around are very dense. Even though Yuji Oda and Yuji wanted to leave as soon as possible, they were still spotted by the patrol soldiers.The muzzle of the black hole pointed at the heads of Oda and Akiyama. Akiyama was a newcomer who had never seen this kind of battle before, and his legs were shaking with fright. Oda was different. After all, he was a person who had been baptized by war. Full of smiles.

"Take it easy, your own!"

Oda Yuji could see that the soldier who pointed the [-]-type rifle at his head was a little nervous like Akiyama, and even the hands holding the rifle turned white from excessive force.With the soldier's acquiescence, he took out the black paper document from his pocket and handed it over.Akiyama followed suit, handed over his ID, and murmured to tell the soldier not to be nervous.But obviously, he seemed to be much more nervous than the soldier.

The patrolling soldier checked carefully, and after confirming the authenticity of the certificate, the nervousness disappeared suddenly, and he ordered in a rather relaxed tone: "It's late at night, don't wander around the staff headquarters, it's not and rules."

This was a kind reminder. Oda couldn't hear it, so he took the documents handed back by the patrolling soldiers, put them back in his pocket, and said, "I'm really sorry, there was a misunderstanding during the mission, and we'll leave now."

Oda Yuji paused here, and suddenly asked: "Who is the general who entered the staff just now?"

"Oh? Are you talking about General Mizukawa from the General Staff?"

It really was Kengo Mizukawa, he wasn't sure when he was in the tavern, he just vaguely thought it was, and now he finally got confirmation from this recruit.After Oda Yuji and Yoshio Akiyama bowed and apologized repeatedly, he left in a hurry and disappeared in the increasingly dense streets of Peking.

No one noticed that there was a mysterious figure not far from them, quietly hiding himself in the shadow of the night.

As the night got darker, Terauchi Shouichi, the commander of the North China Front Army, still didn't rest, and the chief of staff Naozaburo Okabe also didn't rest, and the two sat opposite each other on the sofa in a small lounge.

"His Excellency, when will the real military plan be made public by the staff department? The atmosphere in the staff department is a bit weird recently, and those young officers seem to smell something unusual."

Naozaburo Okabe's tone was full of worry. This deceitful operation even included the senior officers of the entire staff department, and many of them had their cronies.However, due to the Japanese army's tradition of inferiority and superiority, it is difficult to guarantee what these young and impulsive guys will do once they learn the truth of the matter and do not take countermeasures this morning. Extraordinary move.

"A group of advisers, you don't have to worry about what can happen. But Kitamura, you should pay more attention to it. He is a smart man. Maybe he has already seen through our plan at this time."

Okabe Naozaburo disagrees.

"Is Kitamurabu attached? He is still trustworthy. Like Major General Mizukawa, he is also a leader among the younger generation of officers in the empire."

"Hmph! Recently, that guy spread his grievances everywhere. Maybe some secrets have been leaked through his ugly mouth. After a little setback, he became like this. He doesn't deserve to be called the leader of the younger generation of the empire."

Terauchi Shouichi's rebuttal criticized Kitamura Kazuki as an individual. Originally, he had to remove him from an important position due to the needs of factional struggles, and he did not have contempt or other unfavorable views.And this guy actually made a lot of outrageous actions under the influence of unfavorable emotions, so he naturally lowered his evaluation.

"It is said that he and Mizukawa are classmates of the Imperial Army University?"

Terauchi Shouichi did not continue to dwell on the issue of Kitamura Kazuki, but instead brought up Mizukawa Kengo.

"Yes, Mizukawa-kun seems to have a good relationship with that guy."

"Ok!"

Terauchi Shou nodded and did not continue speaking, but there seemed to be a touch of complexity in his eyes.After pondering for a moment, he continued: "Tomorrow the advance team will board the ship. Before the news of the victory comes, the place and time of landing, including the number of troops and the specific number, must be strictly kept secret. These should not be disclosed to the staff. "

"Ha Yi! Your Excellency, we are keeping those young guys from telling the truth. After they know the truth, they will probably make trouble."

"It doesn't matter, as the emperor, they will understand that the Chinese spies that may exist in the staff department may become poisonous arrows that kill you and me at any time. I hope it is just groundless, if not..."

There was a cruel smile on Terauchi Shouichi's face. If there were really Chinese spies in the staff headquarters, then this landing plan would deal the heaviest blow to General China.

The next day, the advance team carefully selected by Terauchi Shouichi boarded the ready-to-fire troop carrier one by one, all left the port before the sun set, and rushed out of Bohai Bay.Shouichi in the temple did not attend the sailing ceremony, and the entire departure was carried out in an extremely low-key manner.

Just in the evening, Terauchi Shouyi received a report from a reconnaissance plane on the defense of the Shandong Army.In addition to the heavy troops gathered on the south bank of the Yellow River, a large number of troops were hastily transferred to Qingdao.Moreover, the Chinese elite stationed in Gaomi, the troops of the No. 57 Division also left the station and began to move south.

Okabe Naozaburo couldn't restrain the excitement in his heart.

"The Chinese were really fooled, and this time they will have to pay the price."

But Terauchi Shouichi answered him in a low voice.

"At the same time, it also proved that there were Chinese spies in the staff, and they were able to reach the level of the combat plan."

Obviously this person's level is not low, who could he be?In the past few days, he had looked at the resumes of all the senior officers in the staff who had access to the combat plan four or five times, but he couldn't figure it out.These people are innocent, and they have been students of the Army University or the Military Academy since they were teenagers. So far, they have spent almost half of their lives fighting for the empire. No matter how they look at it, they cannot become traitors of the empire.

Terauchi Shouichi decided not to worry about this matter anymore. After all, a person's energy is limited. As a commander, there are more important things waiting for him to make decisions. It is impossible to always worry about a possible spy.For a moment, he even suspected that there was a mistake somewhere, and it was unknown that some senior military officers from China had access to information that they would never have access to normally.
