Chapter 206 Safe Zone

Nanjing City, former Chiang Kai-shek's office.

Prince Hatohiko of Asaka Palace sat in the original position of Chiang Kai-shek, carefully watching the situation reports of each unit.He was already emaciated, but now his condition is even more inhuman, like a piece of human skin covered by a bone frame, his eye sockets are sunken, his eyes are red, with his current appearance, if he goes out in the middle of the night, he will probably be regarded as a dog evil spirits.

"How is the army's food problem now? Has the team that collected food outside come back?" Prince Chaoxiang Palace Hatohiko suddenly asked indifferently, and asked the two staff officers standing in front of his desk.

"Your Excellency, Commander, 21 of the 20 food requisition teams sent abroad have now returned. The food problem of the troops has been alleviated. According to the current amount of food, our army can already guarantee at least [-] days of consumption. " Staff A replied.

"Well, it's very good. But we still need to increase the intensity of food collection and store as much food as possible. How is the situation in Nanjing? In the past few days, gunfire can always be heard. Chinese soldiers in Nanjing, Hasn't it been cleaned up yet?"

"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander! According to the combat situation reported by various troops, there are indeed a considerable number of Chinese soldiers in Nanjing who continue to resist." Staff Officer B said.

"Seven days, notify the troops, I'm giving them seven days at most! Within seven days, all Chinese soldiers in Nanjing must be cleaned up!" Asaka Gong Hatohiko continued to look at the documents in his hand, without turning his head.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander, it's just..." Staff Officer B responded first, then said hesitantly as if he had thought of something.

"Just what? Say it!" Hearing the hesitation of the second staff officer, Asaka Miyato Hatohiko started talking, and looked at him very dissatisfied.After all, for the city that has been occupied for a week, the current progress really makes him very dissatisfied.Moreover, there are other problems at present, which is even more uncomfortable.

"Hi, Your Excellency Commander. According to the report from the following troops, it has been confirmed that a large number of Chinese soldiers are hiding in the international security zone in the city. Our army once entered to capture these soldiers, but the German John Rabe always stopped Interfere with our army's actions! And contact the rest of the foreign ghosts and animals who are still in Shanghai to obstruct them together!"

"One time when our soldiers were chasing a Chinese soldier, they followed his route and climbed over the wall into the safe zone he was in charge of. As a result, they didn't catch the Chinese soldier and were forced by him, so they could only continue to climb over the wall and leave there. And On this matter, John Rabe also protested to our army as the deputy director of the Nanjing branch of the Communist Party!"

"This incident not only hindered our army's progress in cleaning up Chinese soldiers, but also set an example for other safe zones. Now, our army can't enter the international safe zone to find those Chinese soldiers. Moreover, they also asked us to The army provides food for them! Your Excellency, Commander, you see how our army should deal with them." Staff second said in a very embarrassed way.

After hearing the report from Staff Officer B, Asuka Miyohiko also pinched his brows with a headache.In his position, his strategy for the entire country is very clear.Currently, the ambassador of the Empire of Japan to Germany is negotiating with Germany.The purpose is to establish an alliance with Germany internationally, so as to obtain German military technology to strengthen the strength of its own army.

Therefore, Hatohiko Asakamiya was also very distressed about the existence of John Rabe.Not only because of his position as the Deputy Minister of the Nanjing Branch of the Revolutionary Party, but also because he persuaded the foreign missionaries, professors, doctors, and businessmen in Nanjing to jointly initiate the establishment of the Nanjing Safety Zone before occupying Nanjing, and was elected For safety zone chairman.

And these founders basically have various identities, such as John Rabe, who is not only the deputy director of the Nanjing Branch of the Communist Party of China, but also an employee of Siemens.The forces they represent basically have considerable influence in their respective countries. If they brazenly send troops to destroy the safe zone at this time, it will inevitably have a considerable impact on Japan internationally.

But now, after Japan brazenly launched a war against China, the interests of European and American countries in China have suffered huge losses.As the saying goes, cutting people's fortunes is like killing their parents. If it weren't for the tense situation in Europe, European and American countries would be unable to take care of Asian affairs.I'm afraid they jumped out a long time ago to put pressure on Japan and ask them to withdraw their troops.You must know that when Japan occupied the Northeast, it had already aroused their dissatisfaction. If it was not for Japan to contain the Far East military forces of the Russian Soviet regime, I am afraid that Japan would not have been allowed to occupy the Northeast steadily.

But now, Japan has launched a full-scale attack on China when European and American countries are shrouded in the cloud of war and are unable to take care of Asia. This behavior may have caused great dissatisfaction among all countries.After the cloud of war hanging over Europe and the United States dissipates, they will definitely join hands to impose sanctions on Japan. You must know that in the current world dominated by white people, Japan will never be allowed to become the new hegemon in Asia.Therefore, in order to prevent that from happening, Japan can only complete its occupation of China before the end of the European war, creating an established fact.

Moreover, in order to prevent a situation where one country confronts multiple countries, it is necessary to find an ally for oneself to share the pressure.Now, it has formed a de facto conflict with those countries headed by the United Kingdom, and the only allies they can control are the emerging United States and Germany.Needless to say, the United States, who pursue a neutral policy, only want to make money and will not confront other countries at all.In this way, only Germany is left to choose.

Therefore, at this time, if a member of the German Communist Party is killed by the Japanese, it will definitely cause unpredictable effects.

"This matter, order to go down, no soldiers are allowed to enter these international security zones. Set up a defense line outside the security zone, and closely monitor every move in the security zone! After reducing their food requirements by half, provide them! And inform They must hand over the Chinese soldiers who fled in before noon tomorrow, otherwise, all food supplies will be cut off!" After thinking for a while, Asaka Miya Hatohiko said to the second staff officer.
