Matsui Iwane urged, fearing that Mamoru Iinuma would forget again.
Iinuma Mamoru also quickly said: "We were reprimanded by the headquarters, but the North China Expeditionary Army was praised. And if that is the case, why don't we learn from the North China Expeditionary Army's successful experience?"
Matsui Iwane frowned. He thought Mamoru Iinuma had such great ideas, that he actually dispatched troops to North China to learn from them. Doesn't that mean that their Central China dispatched troops are not as good as North China's dispatched troops? Is it possible that Iinuma Mamoru still thinks it's too late now?
, they didn’t lose enough people?
Matsui Iwane subconsciously showed an unhappy expression. Iinuma Mamoru saw it, but smiled and said: "Matsui-kun, I know what you are thinking. The North China Expeditionary Army is now in the spotlight. If we send an officer corps to learn from our experience,
If so, it is equivalent to saying that our Central China Expeditionary Army is not as good as the North China Expeditionary Army, right?"
"Now that you know, you still come up with such a bad idea?"
Matsui Iwane said, but at this time, Iinuma Mamoru smiled more and more proudly. He continued to explain: "Matsui-kun, this is exactly what we need those above to see. By doing this, it seems that we are paying attention to
The North China Expeditionary Force bowed its head, but if you think about it on the other hand, isn't this an act of humility on our part?
And I believe that this is exactly what those in this department want to see.
They are dissatisfied with us now, so let us show it to them humbly. Don’t they say that the North China Expeditionary Army is excellent? Then we will send an officer corps to study, so that those in the headquarters will feel that we are suffering.
And painstakingly looking for the reasons for failure.
And in this way, not only will the people in our headquarters praise us, but we can also pass the blame for the main attack on the opponent in the next battle.
Matsui-kun, didn’t you say you don’t know how to fight the next battle without making mistakes? Now we don’t need to think about it, because the next battle will be fought by the North China Expeditionary Force.”
But this time it was extraordinary. Faced with such a heroic figure, the people spontaneously organized themselves.
However, the little devil arrived at the headquarters of the North China Expeditionary Force, while the Dragon Boat Festival arrived at the ancient capital of Kaifeng at noon on January 12.
Therefore, in this battle, Dragon Boat Festival not only became famous in one battle, but also overturned all his previous achievements.
"Yes, yes, yes, yes, Lord Numa is so right. And we can use this to let North China send troops to provoke Dragon Boat Festival, and let Dragon Boat Festival go to North China to fight with the Second Group Army. Then we will be on the battlefield in Huainan.
I’ll never see the Dragon Boat Festival again, hahaha!”
Uemura Toshimichi agreed at this time, and also extended new ideas.
But he didn't know this before the Dragon Boat Festival, and he thought the people had mistaken him. As a result, he was almost thrown into the sky by the people.
This is a change, at least a good start.
·············
Before the words of the Dragon Boat Festival were finished, the welcoming crowds lined the road and came over like a tide, forcing the cars to stop.
Matsui Iwane looked proud, and immediately sent electric messages to the North China Expeditionary Force and the headquarters respectively, expressing his humbly willingness to seek advice.
"Lift him up!"
It was just that he did not expect, including the Dragon Boat Festival, that he fought a battle in Bengbu and defeated the Japanese army. The local people seemed to feel nothing. The Japanese were beaten away and they returned to their homes to live. That was all.
The old abacus thought for a while and said: "No way, the chairman came by plane, and we came by car. These are two different things!"
But the people around them didn't think so. They fought such a great victory in the Dragon Boat Festival and saved them from a military disaster. How could they not shed tears of gratitude?
"Dragon Boat Festival, he is the Dragon Boat Festival."
And without any explanation, a dozen strong men grabbed Duanwu's arms, waist, and legs and lifted him out of the car.
"Wonderful! Matsui-kun, high!"
The driver, Lao Baanpan, was so confused that he almost thought the people were rioting.
After hearing this, Matsui Iwane suddenly became enlightened. He said to the two of them: "Let's do this. Let North China dispatch troops to fight the next battle. Moreover, the people we send will continue to dispatch troops in North China and say: What happened to the Dragon Boat Festival?
It's so powerful that our Central China Expeditionary Force has suffered very heavy losses, so we can only count on their North China Expeditionary Force to earn back the face of our Imperial Japanese Army."
Duanwu was sitting on a military jeep, looking at the cheering crowd, and said to Lao Baanpan who was driving beside him: "We won't collide with the old man, right?"
"Folks, folks,."
At this time, Dragon Boat Festival had no abilities at all. He could fight ten Japanese enemies one by one, but he could only let them abandon him to the common people.
And sure enough, when Matsui Iwane received the order from the headquarters again, his tone softened a lot, at least the words were no longer just a curse.
"Folks, what are you waiting for? Our hero is here."
Of course, to put on a show, you have to do a complete set. Matsui Iwane did send a regiment of officers to North China, arriving almost at the same time as the Dragon Boat Festival.
Duanwu guessed, and there were a lot of people, he was afraid of a collision when the car drove by, so he stood up and shouted: "Fellows, my name is Duanwu, I may not be the person you want to wait for, please give way."
Mamoru Iinuma and Toshimichi Uemura gave him a thumbs up at the same time, complimenting him flatteringly.
Kaifeng is the ancient capital of seven dynasties. The city walls are hard and thick, and the people in the city are also very enthusiastic. They are standing in a long queue at the city gate, waving colorful flags.
"So young! Such a young officer."
Of course, among these heroes, the Dragon Boat Festival is the most important. Li Zhongren fought on the northern front, and it was infuriating that Han Fuju fled without fighting. But the battle in Huainan was different. The Dragon Boat Festival not only
It severely damaged the Japanese army, drove the Japs away, and directly caused the Japanese army on the northern front to stop as a result.
Therefore, after receiving the news that the Dragon Boat Festival arrived in Kaifeng on the 12th, both the receiving officers and the people in the city all went out of the city to welcome the anti-Japanese hero-Dragon Boat Festival.
"Then why are there so many people lined up on both sides? I guess the other party got the wrong person."
What's more, there have long been rumors that the Chairman will hold a commendation meeting in Kaifeng to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival and other meritorious officials.
And it was thrown higher and higher. Duanwu was really worried that they wouldn't be able to catch any of them, and that he, the anti-Japanese hero, would be so miserable.
Of course, what he worried about did not happen. If more than a dozen strong men could not pick up one person, it would be over.
What's more, although Dragon Boat Festival is strong and muscular, he does not weigh more than 120 kilograms.
Such a portion can be tossed by even two people, let alone a dozen people.
When the Dragon Boat Festival was young, the Dragon Boat Festival was placed on a bamboo sedan chair amidst the cheers of the people. Then eight people carried the sedan chair and were carried into the city amidst the huge crowds, and went straight to Kaifeng's Drum Tower Street!
