    At nine o'clock in the morning, another uninvited guest also arrived in Changzhou while the train was covered with dust.

    After learning that Major Murakami personally led his troops to the villages near the destroyed road section to carry out revenge, Major Hirono, the combat staff officer of the 11th Brigade, immediately climbed into a truck transporting supplies to the "mopping up" troops and met Gendarmerie Captain Morita.  Accompanied by his wife, he left the city and tried to meet up with his classmate Lu Shi and Murakami, the captain of the 49th Infantry Battalion, as soon as possible.

    The staff officers of the Imperial Army are all "dragons among men". Most of them are top students who were admitted to mainland China with excellent results. They are by no means comparable to those staff officers in the China Army who fill in the gaps and do errands to assist.  Especially when the chief officer is away, he is often responsible for directing the combat operations of the entire army, and has a very high status in the army.

    Although he belonged to two different systems, the military and the military, Morita still did not dare to neglect. While observing the surroundings vigilantly, for fear that Hirono would be attacked within his jurisdiction, he asked curiously: "Your Excellency, Major, are you in such a hurry?"  Sir, Captain, do you have any combat mission?"

    Hirono despised and even hated military policemen like Morita from the bottom of his heart, but thinking that his old classmate would continue to deal with him in the future, he said absently and perfunctorily: "Of course there is a mission, but it is not a battle."

    Maybe it's an occupational disease, or maybe he's really curious. Lin Lin always wants to get to the bottom of things. Even though he knows that people don't want to talk to him, he still says to himself: "Oh is it a defense change? I really don't know what the dispatched troops are thinking.  , the garrison was changed one after another like a revolving door in less than two years, and they were transferred out as soon as they got familiar with the situation. If this continues, public security will never be good. "

    I have to admit that what he said does make sense.

    Since the Japanese Incident, the garrison in Changzhou City has changed several times.  It started with the 3rd Division, but before it got too hot, it was transferred to Jiangbei to take over the 11th Division's occupation of Yangzhou.  The 17th Division followed closely and was transferred to Jiangbei to take over the defense of the Nantong area as soon as it completed its defense deployment.

    Had it not been for the 11th Brigade, which was responsible for guarding the entire Beijing-Shanghai line, and strongly opposed it on the grounds of insufficient troops, even the 66th Regiment stationed in Qishuyan and other places, and the 69th Regiment stationed in Yixing, Jiangyin, and Changshu  They are all likely to be transferred.

    The battle line was stretched too long and the troops were stretched thin. Hirono sighed secretly, shook his head with emotion and said: "Don't worry, Murakami-kun will not be transferred so soon."

    While he was talking, he suddenly heard a series of gunshots and cheers coming from the front.  The rhythmic firing makes people feel that the shooter is well-trained.  Amid the cheers, Morita heard a familiar name.

    "That's amazing, squadron leader!"

    "Lieutenant Kawashima, come on!"

    Guangye stepped on the ammunition box and saw a car speeding back and forth on the road.  There was a big officer standing in the car, aiming his gun at the dark crowd on the other side of the road.

    The Chinese were running as fast as they could to get away from the fire coming from the car.  The person in front was knocked down, and the person behind fled in the opposite direction.  But the whizzing bullets always ran ahead of them. As a result, the crowd ran blindly and could not escape the fate of being shot.  Depending on the direction of the target, the large officer took ammunition from different ammunition boxes hanging on his sides and behind his body.

    When shooting at long distances, use the rear magazine, use the right magazine at mid-range, and use the left magazine at close range. The movements are skillful and smooth.  That dignified and calm posture, coupled with the on-site effect of the gunshots knocking people down, caused the soldiers to cheer.

    ¡°It¡¯s simply an art,¡± Morita said with a sigh.

    "What else will you do besides killing people?"

    Hirono frowned, and then the gunfire stopped. The big officer jumped out of the car, gave a military salute to the truck, and said regretfully: "There is a big hole in front of the truck. The car can't drive through it, but it still leaves several targets behind."  Run away. If another team takes a detour from the side, the result will be even greater."

    As soon as he finished speaking, another truck sped over. Major Murakami jumped out of the passenger compartment, angrily ran forward and gave him a few big shiny slaps, "Asshole, stupid bastard! Kill everyone."  Who will help me build bridges and roads?¡±

    Squadron Leader Kawashima, who took pleasure in killing people, realized that restoring traffic was more important than revenge, and quickly bowed at 90 degrees.

    "Murakami-kun, it seems you have a lot of troubles."

    It was only then that Murakami noticed that there was an extra person beside the truck, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face, "Hiroyo-kun, why are you here?"

    "Let's go to the front and say it," Hirono pointed to a shade of tree in front, "Morita-kun, come too, you will receive the order sooner or later anyway."

    "Hi!"

    "First of all, I will inform you of the order just issued by the base camp. The designation of the China Expeditionary Force has been revoked since yesterday, and the headquarters has returned to China. The China Expeditionary Force Headquarters, with General Nishio and Lieutenant General Itagaki as commanders and chiefs of general staff, has full authority.  Command includes the Northern Front and the 11thAll troops in China including the 12th Army, 13th Army, 21st Army, 3rd Flying Group, 7th Signal Team, Central Meteorological Department and 4th Railway Department.  "

    Even the Northern Front Army was under the command of the China Expedition Army that had just been established in Nanjing not long ago. This news shocked the two of them.  At the same time, the Central Branch Dispatch Army Headquarters was abolished, making Murakami aware of the seriousness of the problem, and asked eagerly: "Hiroyo-kun, where is the ownership of this headquarters?"

    Hirono smiled and said nonchalantly: "From now on, it will be placed under the combat order of the 'Dengdian Force', and the commander of the 'Dengdeng Force' will be concurrently served by General Nishio, so it will not have much impact on the headquarters."

    "It's really surprising. No wonder that Ishikawa always plays tricks on me. It turns out this is what happened."

    "Actually, I'm not just here to inform you."

    Hirono's face straightened and he said extremely seriously: "Rather, entrusted by His Excellency the Brigade Commander, I have officially issued an order to the China Expeditionary Force Headquarters, the 'Mei Agency' and the 'Deng Force' Secret Service Headquarters to fully assist Chen Jizu's department.  I hope Murakami-kun and Morita-kun can take the overall situation into consideration and work closely with Chen Jizu and Lieutenant Ishikawa. They must not act on their own initiative and affect the peace cause of China politician Wang Zhaoming. "

    The playboy deputy and Ishikawa, who looks more Chinese than Japanese, have been in Wujin for some time.  So for Murakami and Morita, these are all clich¨¦s and nothing new.  However, Hirono personally visited and even issued orders in the name of the China Expeditionary Force, the "Mei Agency" and the "Deng Force" secret service headquarters, so they could not help but ignore it.

    Murakami pondered for a moment and then suddenly said: "Old classmate, I don't know what you mean by 'full assistance' and 'close cooperation'? But one thing must be stated. As the commander of the Japanese troops stationed in Wuhan, I must put Beijing and Shanghai  The safety of the Xicheng Highway, Xicheng Highway, Liwu Highway, Zhencheng Highway, and Wuyi Highway and the public security within the jurisdiction are the first priority.¡±

    ¡°There is no doubt that he was worried that as Chen Jizu¡¯s troops grew stronger, they would pose a threat to his own safety.

    If the order was questioned, if it were another captain, Hirono would definitely be furious, but he was facing an old classmate, and he couldn't get rid of that face, so he changed the subject and said meaningfully: "Old classmate, don't forget  Soldiers should obey orders as their bounden duty! What's more, there is no contradiction between the two. If you can express your due sincerity and cooperate closely with Chen, it will only benefit the safety of traffic lines and the security of the area.  One drawback.¡±

    Murakami and Morita looked at each other and asked the question he wanted to ask the most, "What about the command authority?"

    "After the new government is established, it will be clarified in the form of a treaty or agreement. But before that, the two parties can only have a cooperative relationship." Hirono paused and added: "It is also because the cooperative relationship is too vague,  It will cause various inconveniences to both parties stationed in the same area, so liaison officers and advisors are dispatched. If Murakami-kun can make good use of it, it will not be necessary for Wujin to change from a 'quasi-security area' to a 'security area'."

    After all the talk, I still can¡¯t control them.

    Thinking of the triumphant look of Ishikawa, who had never even been to Lu Shi, Murakami sighed softly, and said with a helpless smile: "Old classmate, I think I understand what you mean. In fact, at noon today  There is a reception, and I will be there on time, with instructions to show enough kindness to the playboy."

    He was ordered to express his goodwill. To be honest, he was still very reluctant, but it was already very good for the local emperor stationed on one side. Hirono nodded slightly and reminded with a half-smile: "He is not a playboy, but a member of the Central Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang.  , member of the Military Commission, future deputy director of the National Government Aviation Administration and commander of the National Government Air Force Chenduqiao Airport Security."

    "Then should I salute first when I see him?"

    "Theoretically yes."

    This was something Murakami couldn't accept, but the military orders were overwhelming and he couldn't disobey them, so he smiled slyly and said: "It's almost 10 o'clock, Hirono-kun, why don't we go to the banquet together and let them see you, the pride of the Imperial Army?"  "

    Everyone is a major, so they should salute first. How could Hirono not understand the implication of his words? He immediately shook his head and said: "Old classmate, the brigade commander is waiting for me to go back and formulate operational guidance to strengthen Jiaxing's public security. You  I appreciate your kindness. Please send someone to send me back so we can meet you at the Yasukuni Shrine.¡±

    This is the most popular gift for military school students when they graduate. Murakami was so dumbfounded that he motioned to Morita to prepare the car, nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, let's meet at the Yasukuni Shrine!"
