Chapter 1 The Darkness Before Dawn (4)

Chen Brai stayed in Renqiu for a total of four days. Although he received high-level reception during these four days, he was never able to see Ouyang Yun. Ouyang Yun did not show up, and Li Tieshu and others had no excuse for rejecting Nanjing's request. It's much easier to find. The most exciting scene was directed by Guo Biao. He selected nearly a hundred more obedient Japanese prisoners of war and formed a learning and reform class. He invited Chen Brai to inspect and guide them.

From the bottom of his heart, Chen Brei disagreed with the release of the Japanese prisoners of war who had finally been captured. At this time, in Japan, because the Bushido spirit was deeply rooted in the people, it was extremely difficult to capture them alive during the war, let alone capture them all at once. So much. If it hadn’t been for that rainstorm provided by God, the 38th Division would not have accomplished the great feat of “unprecedented and unprecedented”. Of course, as a die-hard loyalist of Chiang Kai-shek, after listening to the old man’s heartfelt words, he I also felt that China’s current national and military strength was not enough to start a full-scale war with Japan, so I took on this task and sincerely traveled to North China for this purpose.

The so-called Yamato nation is actually a humble nation. It can be traced back to something related to Darwin's theory of evolution. As an island nation, the natural law of survival of the fittest and the strong seems to override human nature and rationality. The most significant example is that... During the Warring States Period in Japan, after the Spaniards used strong ships and cannons to blast open a dock controlled by a certain daimyo and killed the daimyo, his samurai did not use the Bushido spirit to avenge the master, but naturally lined up in a line. Waiting for the acceptance of his new master, the Spanish captain at that time seemed to have seen a group of monsters. Another example is Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate. She keeps her integrity, but hopes that she will raise her offspring even if she sells herself...

Chen Bulei didn't know these historical anecdotes, so accompanied by Guo Biao, he watched the group of little Japs wearing numbered prisoner-of-war uniforms respectfully greet him for inspection. He suspected that he had come to the wrong place. For a long time, he asked Guo Biao: “Are these really Japanese?”

Guo Biao smiled proudly: "It's guaranteed to be genuine."

"With nearly 10,000 people, just eating and clothing is a big price. Furthermore, the Japanese are unruly. Can you guarantee that they will not gather in groups to cause trouble?"

"Eating and dressing is a trivial matter. Although the Japanese are short in stature, they are very strong. There are many craftsmen among them. Haha, it is not a problem for them to support themselves."

Chen Bulei was surprised when he heard this: "Let these prisoners of war support themselves."

"yes."

"This should be Commander Ouyang's idea."

Guo Biao smiled and accepted it,

"What if they gather together to cause trouble?"

"Kill them, huh. It's already a great gift that we allow them to serve their time and make up for their mistakes. If they don't know better, we can't blame us for being ruthless."

At this time, they had reached the end of the prisoners of war queue. Chen Brai stopped and looked at the Japanese, knowing that it was impossible to persuade the Xuebing Army to release the prisoners from these two aspects. As for using Nanjing's authority to exert pressure, , Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shook his head: Nanjing may still have authority along the Yangtze River. When we get here, who knows if Ouyang Yun, a bastard boy, will buy it. It seems that we can only throw out the final bottom line. However, this person in front of him But he couldn't make the decision, but how to meet Ouyang Yun? He was thinking silently while looking for something to say: "Guo Brigade, I heard that your student army also contributed a lot to this great victory in Tianjin."

Guo Biao's expression darkened when he heard this, and he said, "Does Director Chen also know?"

"I've heard some, especially the part where your troops go deep into the tiger's den to behead someone. As the old saying goes, it's just like taking the head of an admiral out of thousands of troops. Your Wolf Fang's combat power is really extraordinary. With that, A mere crowd of a hundred people..."

Before and after the war, although Ouyang Yun and Zhang Zizhong explicitly ordered the ministries not to disclose the news of the student army's participation in the war, especially the participation of Lang Ya and Da Dao, there is no airtight wall in the world. The deeds of Lang Ya and Da Dao going deep into the enemy group alone are still Word spread, and now, not only in North China, but also in Nanjing, and even Guangdong and Guangxi, there are stories about the deeds of the two special forces. Due to false rumors, some people have compared the fangs and broadswords to heavenly soldiers and generals.

Although Li Zhuang's beheading operation ended with the successful capture of Dofeihara alive, the price paid by Langya was too high. It can be said that Ouyang Yun and Guo Biao's hard work for more than half a year was completely wasted in this battle. Before the war, whether it was Ouyang Yun, Li Tieshu, or even Zhang Zhen, they had high hopes for Langya, and Guo Biao was once proud of being the head of Langya. In their hearts, there is a vague arrogant thought of Langya's world's number one army. In fact, it is not just him. Almost everyone in Langya has such a knot. Therefore, in the face of the huge casualties caused by the beheading operation, they have no regrets. Mental preparation was like falling from the sky to the ground. Everyone was stunned. As the captain of Langya, this has become a wound in Guo Biao's heart that will never be healed. Now, this wound is still bleeding. Well, Chen Brai's words undoubtedly sprinkled a pinch of salt on the wound. The pain in it is not enough for outsiders to understand. However, looking at Guo Biao's knitted eyebrows, it is not difficult to see the degree of pain in his heart.

Chen Brai actually admired Langya sincerely. However, when he found that Guo Biao suddenly changed, he knew something was wrong even though he didn't know the whole story, so he stopped talking, and the two of them quietly walked out of the prisoner-of-war camp and got in the car. Return to the Xuebing Army Headquarters,

Regarding the release of Japanese prisoners of war, Chiang Kai-shek was also self-aware and knew that Ouyang Yun would never be convinced by the Nanjing government's righteousness alone. At this time, Chiang Kai-shek was still focused on peace and security, so he decided to leave the house the day before Chen Bulei came to Renqiu. , after careful consideration, old Jiang Sui gave him the final bottom line,

After Chen Brai came out of the prisoner of war camp, he had figured out the basic situation. At this time, he also knew that it was impossible to trick the White Wolf with empty words, so he had no choice but to throw out the final bottom line.

Undoubtedly, the Tianjin Victory not only changed the layout of North China, but also affected the overall direction of the two hostile countries, China and Japan. Not to mention Japan, the "226 Incident" broke out in advance, and in China, A game of politics and military strategy in North China has also begun, but this time it is not just two parties participating in the wrestling, and the power involved far exceeds that of North China alone.

So, what is Chiang Kai-shek’s final bottom line?
