Masaki Ito's death completely messed up the 101st Division. What's even more hateful is that not only Masaki Ito, the commander of the division, was assassinated, but also Kojiro Uno of the Second Regiment, who died tragically. More than 100 imperial soldiers, more than 200 wounded, and countless tents and supplies were burned. This kind of thing happened before the war started.
Kasumi Ueda, who took over the command, was about to go mad with anger. Masaki Ito, the commander of the division under heavy protection, was assassinated, and he was in the barracks. How to report to Japan? Anger will make His Majesty the Emperor disappointed with the 101st Division.
"Baga, Shingo Ito, the division head was assassinated, and you, as the captain of the division head's guard, still have the face to live, damn it, you should kill yourself by caesarean section, and use death to wash away your shame¡ª" Shangji Sheng Furious, he yelled at Masaki Ito's guard captain with a ferocious face.
Ito Shingo's face was pale. Although he belonged to the Ito family, but this time Masaki Ito was assassinated by the head of the regiment. As the captain of the guard, he can be said to bear an inescapable responsibility. How did the assassin get into the barracks and the division? In the commander's tent, what did his guards do?
?It is impossible to explain, and no amount of explanation will be pale. Ito Shingo knows that this will be a shame that he will never be able to wash away in his life. As Chief of Staff Kasumi Ueda said, only one death can wash away this shame.
Shingo Ito didn't really want to die, but in the eyes of everyone who hated him, Shingo Ito knew that he had to die, otherwise, I would shirk responsibility from Shangji Sheng and the officers, and someone would have to bear this shame, and as a guard Captain is the most suitable.
Thinking about this, Shingo Ito was desperate, so he could only kneel and sit on the ground helplessly. Kasumi Kamiji waved his hand, and an officer moved a small square table and placed it in front of Shingo Ito, and brought a dagger with a wooden handle and wrapped it with a white cloth. Put it on the small square table, this is the real laparotomy ceremony.
Caesarean section originated from the Genpei War. It was in the Edo period that a system was truly formed. Moreover, this ritual has very strict rules. Without a certain identity, caesarean section cannot be performed. As a member of the Ito family, Ito Shingo has a certain identity , In addition, Ito Shingo is the rank of major, and he also has a certain influence, so Kasumi Ueda will let him commit suicide by cutting his belly to wash away his shame.
According to the saying, this should be regarded as a sabotage, that is, being condemned and disemboweled. It is used to express one's responsibility for a major mistake or improper behavior. In fact, it is also like chasing the abdomen. And the laparotomy, the real laparotomy is only done for the purpose of not being a prisoner, there is a difference.
Shingo Ito took off his clothes, revealing his hardcover upper body, looked at the dagger on the square table expressionlessly, took a deep breath, and slowly stretched out his hand to grab the dagger. His hand was still trembling slightly when he looked carefully. It reveals the true thoughts in Shingo Ito's heart.
Finally grabbed the dagger, Ito Shingo didn't have any great ideas in his heart, he didn't have the consciousness of sacrifice, and he really didn't want to die, but he knew that it was a death situation, because someone had to take responsibility, and he didn't die. No, since it must be death, whether to be beaten to death as a sinner, or to be disemboweled in exchange for honor, there is actually no choice.
Caesarean section is very painful. Ito Shingo has seen others have caesarean section, and now it is his turn. After a while, he stabilized his right hand, closed his eyes slowly, and suddenly stabbed in from the left rib, and then quickly Turning the ground upwards, enduring the severe pain, he desperately cut horizontally to the right rib, so far, the laparotomy ceremony was barely completed.
In fact, if you follow the regular laparotomy, you need to cut again from the top, all the way to the bottom, and cut a cross, but there are very few people who can do that, and the pain is unbearable after one cut. Have the courage to keep mowing.
The blood was flowing, and even the intestines flowed out. Ito Shingo felt his eyes began to blur, and everything seemed to be moving away from him. He vaguely heard someone saying: "The assassins came down from the mountain. They should have hid early." Up there, four assassins were killed last night¡ª"
It came down from the mountain, this was Shingo Ito's last thought, when did the damned assassin hide and why he didn't find it at that time, maybe Shingo Ito would not know even if he went to hell, the assassin was right under his feet at that time.
Shingo Ito committed suicide by disembowelment, which made the guards feel ashamed to see others. Many people also committed suicide by disembowelment, and more than 20 people died indirectly. This is only the prelude to Masaki Ito's death.
Katsushi Ueda dared not hide such a big matter. On the one hand, he reported to Central China Commander Yanagawa Hirasuke, and on the other hand, he notified the other divisions that the war had to be postponed for another day because of the death of Ito Masaki.
The Japanese are also veryI believe that a major general died before the war started, which cast a shadow over the ensuing war, and also made Ushishima Sadao of the 18th Division and Wada Bingwei of the 19th Mixed Brigade feel that Shocked, from now on, every place I go, even if it is three feet away, I have to search carefully.
The one who was really angry was Hirasuke Yanagawa. As the commander of Central China, he suffered successive defeats in successive battles and lost troops. He used to be able to use the lack of troops as an argument, but now that the reinforcements have arrived, Masaki Ito, a major general, died before the war started. He slapped Yanagawa Hirasuke hard.
Almost instinctively, Yanagawa Heisuke thought of the Secret Service Battalion. Last night¡¯s sneak attack was very similar to the Secret Service Battalion. He left without any special purpose. This is the Secret Service Battalion¡¯s strategy of mobile warfare. Could it be that the moment when Masaki Ito was assassinated was also from the Secret Service Battalion? , Those assassins are very methodical, can speak Japanese, and can skillfully use the gestures and spoken language of the Japanese army. They are very similar to people from the secret service camp.
Although there is no proof, Yanagawa Heisuke vented his anger on the spy camp. He always felt that the spy camp was his nemesis. Anyone who got involved with the spy camp was the beginning of his bad luck. From the beginning of the Shanghai invasion, Yanagawa Heisuke could say war He is invincible, and he can always win more with less, but since he met the secret service battalion, he has been defeated again and again, and the Army Headquarters has already warned him.
The damn spy battalion wants to investigate the identity at this moment. There is not much information, and Hirasuke Yanagawa doesn¡¯t have that much time. In order to calm the anger of the domestic headquarters, Hirasuke Yanagawa can only impose everything on the spy battalion. I believe the spy battalion will not justify it. Yes, because the two sides are mortal enemies, what an honor it is to kill a major general, and there is no need for the secret service battalion to push it out.
Then Hirasuke Yanagawa gave the order to launch an attack on the secret service battalion in Taihu Lake immediately. Three warships plus a hundred gunboats, more than ten troop carriers, and more than 30 patrol boats formed a powerful fleet, symmetrically dominating the waters of Taihu Lake. The secret service battalion carried out a comprehensive encirclement and suppression, and arranged for the Takeuchi unit of the Fifth Division and the Hongo Unit of the Eighteenth Division to cooperate with the land to blockade.
On the afternoon of the 6th, the fleet was divided into two groups, one from Shadun into Taihu Lake, the other from Baipu Port into Taihu Lake, encircled Xishan Island, and first eliminated the water forces of the spy battalion.
The secret service battalion has more than 50 ships of various types, basically gunboats and patrol boats, as well as troop carriers and tugboats. However, when facing the Japanese fleet with such a force, it is an absolute dead end. It is difficult to pose a threat to warships, even if it is just an ordinary frigate, it is enough to dominate on Taihu Lake.
Liu Yang, who got the news, did not return to Xishan Island. Instead, he handed over the attack task to Tang Xuezhi of the Tiger Battalion and Cui Haiyang of the Security Corps. The battalion defended Yixing County. In addition, for this battle, Liu Yang used 5,000 militia seats to cooperate.
Under Liu Yang's rule, all the people are soldiers. All young adults over the age of 14 and under 40, regardless of gender, must receive military training, and each village has a militia platoon. Three villages have a militia company. Of course, it is different from the regular army. There are as many people as there are in a militia platoon, but there are more than 60,000 militiamen in Xishan and Yixing counties.
These militiamen with some military qualities, except for a few people with guns, the rest are just for cooperation in wartime, let's say they are engaged in transportation and repairing fortifications. This time, 5,000 people were used as support, mainly to mobilize the floating fields to encircle and cooperate with the main force to attack.
The Japanese army never imagined what would be waiting for them. Taihu Lake is not a sea, and anything can happen here.
The Japanese army came all the way from the big river, the gunboats opened the way and scouted in front, the warships were in the middle, and the troop carriers and patrol boats were at the end. Each army had as many as seven or eight hundred people. It shouldn't be a problem to eliminate the secret service battalion. For these three warships, Yanagawa Heisuke took a lot of effort to coordinate with the navy.
Until the entrance to the lake, the investigating soldiers felt that something was wrong. Was the entrance to the lake so big when they originally investigated?
It seems that the shoreline of the river has become bigger, and the soldiers thought it was ridiculous, so they didn't report it immediately. They supported them and continued to go to the lake to do reconnaissance. Along the way, they saw a lot of floating fields that were not too big. It is used to grow food, so they have no intention of destroying it, they just continue to investigate.
Because there was no enemy news, the warships and gunboats slowly entered the waters of Taihu Lake, and the enemy could not be seen even with binoculars.
Let's talk about the scouting gunboat in front, continue to move forward, go out for about ten miles, and suddenly see a big island, when is there an island here?
I hurriedly checked the map. There was no island marked on the map. I was confused when I heard the roar of a machine. I don¡¯t know where a group of gunboats, patrol boats, and tugboats rushed out. The troops knew that they were not opponents. On the one hand, they sent a report to the warships. They had already found the enemy. There were about 20 gunboats, more than ten patrol boats, and three or four tugboats refitted¡ª(Remember the website website: www.hlnovel .com)According to the report, the enemy has been found, there are about 20 gunboats, more than ten patrol boats, and three or four ships converted from tugboats¡ª(remember this website website: www.hlnovel.com
