Chapter 78 The First Shot (3)
"Baga." Maeda Toshio stared at Kuroki who came to report.
The Shanghai Municipal Government's reply was to ask the Marine Corps to provide evidence, while the Security Command's reply was to find out that there was no evidence. This made Maeda Toshio extremely angry.
"Does the accusation of the Great Japanese Imperial Army still need evidence?" Maeda Toshio shouted angrily.
"Your Excellency Colonel, have you reported to the Third Fleet Command and notified the Shanghai Consulate to resolve the issue through diplomatic means?" Kuroki suggested with a worried look on his face.
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is too weak, and these guys only know how to compromise with the Chinese. No, we have to solve this problem ourselves. Since the Shanghai Municipal Government and the Security Command are unwilling to hand over the person, we have to go to the Third Shanghai Security Regiment to ask for someone." Maeda Toshio waved impatiently and said.
After the 128th Incident, the "Shanghai Armistice Treaty" was finally signed with mediation from Britain, the United States and other countries. However, the Japanese Navy, which launched the 128th Incident, was very dissatisfied with this treaty. Except for the Chinese national team that could not be stationed around Shanghai, there was nothing beneficial to Japan. However, now the National Government has arranged three security regiments in Shanghai, especially the entry of the 3rd Shanghai Security Regiment. This cannot be stationed in name only.
After the 226th Incident, the Japanese military began to be tough, especially the Japanese army had penetrated from the Northeast of China to North China. The Japanese Navy, which has always been in conflict with the army, is also ready to move. Many middle and lower-level officers shouted to go to the 228th Incident in Shanghai to control the largest city in the Far East. Toshio Maeda was also one of them. This time, Yasuke Kitashima and Keno Oyama were attacked, which made Toshio Maeda worried about his future while seeing an opportunity. In addition, expanding the situation can also reduce his own responsibilities.
"Colonel, this will inevitably cause diplomatic disputes. Please be cautious." As an intelligence officer, Kuroki, had to remind Maeda Toshio. After all, Shanghai and Northeast China are different from Northeast China. This involves the interests of Britain and the United States. Once the situation expands, it will inevitably cause negotiations between Britain and the United States.
"Baga, if we don't react, the Imperial Japanese Navy will be completely lost and will only be ridiculed by the army and other guys. Now the Kwantung Army has already carried out the exercises to the city of Peking in North China. And we, now the Chinese have come to the door, should we swallow our anger like this? Gather the guards and lead the team to Hongqiao Airport. We must let the Third Security Regiment hand over the murderer." Toshio Maeda knocked on the table and said sternly.
Seeing that Kuroki could not convince Toshio Maeda, he had to accept the order.
Corporal Ding San, who was in the first row of the 8th Company of the Third Battalion of the Third Battalion of the Security Regiment, went to the airport gate with a gun on his back. The Third Battalion was originally stationed at Longhua Airport with the Second Battalion. After the troops were reorganized this time, the Third Battalion was transferred back to Hongqiao Airport. The first row of the Eighth Company where Ding San was located was responsible for the guarding of the airport gate.
Ding San was an orphan and wandered on the streets of Suzhou since he was a child. That time, when the security team recruited soldiers, they thought they could carry guns and eat food and didn't have to beg for food anymore, Ding San signed up for a soldier. Originally, he lived a comfortable life in the security team. Although Ding San was a new recruit and was often bullied by veterans, he had three meals a day and could wear military uniforms so that he would not be hungry or cold. Later, a leader Shen came, and the security team was also adapted into the Shanghai Security Team, and the guy was replaced by a new factory. Not only did he eat well, he also paid a full double salary. The only difference from the past is that the army was very strict and he had to take cultural classes at night. Now Ding San can not only write his own name, but also save dozens of dollars. Ding San thought about coming for another two years, and maybe he could even talk about a wife. This was something Ding San dared not think about before.
After leaving the door, Ding San greeted Fatty Hong, the busy cooking squad leader, and looked at the stewed cabbage and pork stewed vermicelli in the pot. Ding San's drool was almost down. While walking towards the door, he was still thinking about the evening tooth sacrifice. At this time, he would never have thought that what would happen in ten minutes would be an extremely important moment in the history of China, and the name of a small figure, Ding San, added a touch to the future history.
Yasuo Oyama, the captain of the Marine Guard, sat in the truck's cab with a blue face. The lieutenant Junior Keno Oyama, who was injured last night, was his younger brother. In the afternoon, he visited the hospital. Looking at his younger brother who was wrapped in a mummy-like manner, Yasuo Oyama felt like a knife. When the two brothers joined the army together, his mother told him that he must take good care of his younger brother, but now the doctor told him that his younger brother may not be able to live without crutches in his life.
Damn Chinese. Yasuo Oyama vowed in his heart that he must avenge his younger brother. He would cut off the heads of the Chinese who injured his younger brother with his own hands. When the commander ordered him to take the guards to go to the 3rd Shanghai Security Regiment to ask for people with his intelligence officer Kuroki, he wanted to kneel down to the commander on the spot and thank him for giving him a chance to avenge himself. Although Kuroki repeatedly cared for him before leaving, in the eyes of Yasuo Oyama, the Great Japanese Empire was invincible. The soldiers who violated the Great Japanese Empire and the enemies of his younger brother were, he would never be ruthless.
Ding San, who had just changed his guard and stood on the post, found a convoy coming from a distance, with a black car heading, followed by two large trucks. It was not until the car drove near that Ding San found that the Japanese sun flags were hung on the fronts of the cars, and the two trucks behind were filled with Japanese soldiers. There were machine guns on the roof of the truck, and the black muzzle was facing the gate.
"The Japanese soldiers are here." Ding San shouted quickly, and at the same time took off the rifle on his shoulder and crossed the center of the gate.
With Ding San's shout, the soldiers in charge of guarding the gate quickly ran out of the inside, held guns and pulled them at the gate, and the machine guns installed in the machine gun bunker in the gate were loaded immediately, and they were ready to be solemn.
A creaking sound of brakes, three cars rushed through the cordon and stopped directly at the gate of Hongqiao Airport. The two trucks behind were put down the baffles, and about thirty Japanese soldiers on the car carried 38 guns with bright bayonets and surrounded the gate.
"This is the defense zone of the Third Shanghai Security Regiment. Please retreat outside the cordon immediately." Ding San immediately picked up the rifle in his hand and shouted loudly at the Japanese soldiers.
At this time, Kuroki came out of the car, walked to Ding San, swept around the soldiers of the Third Security Regiment who were waiting for battle, and said in a contemptuous tone, "We are the Marine Corps of the Imperial Japanese Navy stationed in Shanghai, you can get out of the way."
"If you say you can get out of the way, just get out of the way. Let me say it again. This is the defense zone of our Shanghai Security Regiment. Please exit the cordon, otherwise we will shoot."
Under the influence of the regiment commander Shen Xiuwen, the third security regiment had no favorable feelings for Japan. Seeing Kuroki's arrogant look, Ding San said without hesitation.
Since the January and 28th Incident, Kuroki has come to Shanghai and has not dealt with the other two security regiments stationed in Shanghai. When they saw Japanese officers, they were not afraid of being intimidated. Therefore, Kuroki was used to this sense of superiority and did not take the soldiers at the door seriously. According to his idea, he rushed directly to the headquarters of the Third Security regiment and forced Shen Xiuwen to hand over the murderer.
Unexpectedly, a little corporal dared to shout at him, and frowned, pressing his unhappiness and was about to speak again. Dashan Yufu, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but rush forward and grabbed Ding San's clothes on his chest: "Ba Geyalu, get out quickly."
He was already full of anger. Although he couldn't understand Chinese dialect, he also saw the arrogance and contempt in the eyes of the Chinese soldiers at the door. During the January and February 8th Incident, Yufu Dashan fought with the 19th Route Army stationed in Shanghai at that time as a squad leader. In his eyes, the Chinese soldiers were vulnerable, let alone the soldiers of these security regiments.
But he couldn't speak Chinese, and he was talking Japanese. Ding San was caught by Yufu Dashan and was immediately angry. He pushed Yufu Dashan away. The rifle in his hand quickly loaded the bullet, pointed at Yufu Dashan's chest, and shouted: "Get out."
Seeing this, the other soldiers from the security regiment standing at the gate pointed the guns in their hands at the Japanese soldiers opposite and shouted loudly: "Get out."
The Japanese soldiers of the guard also raised their guns and pointed them at the soldiers of the security regiment.
Kuroki didn't expect that the soldiers of the Third Security Regiment would be so powerful against the Marines of the Great Japanese Empire. However, he also knew at this time that this was the territory of the Third Security Regiment, with two battalions inside. He was weak in power. If there was a real conflict, he would be unfavorable. He quickly shouted: "Stop, we want to see your regiment commander Shen."
Before Kuroki finished speaking, Yuufu Dashan, who had just been pushed away by Ding San, suddenly took out his turtle box from his gun holster and shouted, "Ba Geyalu." He pointed the gun at Ding San.
"Bao." In a hurry, Ding San raised his gun and fired a gun to warn him.
Dashan Yongfu, who was stunned by anger, heard the gunshot and subconsciously knocked the trigger in his hand. With a "bang", Ding San, who was ahead, fell down when he heard the sound, and a stream of blood suddenly popped out of his chest.
Both sides were already in a state of tension and were nervous. When they saw Ding San fell to the ground.
"Murder, the Japanese killed Ding San."
"Brothers, I've had sex with the little Japanese."
As the soldiers of the Third Security Regiment shouted, the rifle in their hands suddenly opened fire, and at the same time, Japan also opened fire. For a moment, gunshots were loud at the gate of Hongqiao Airport. The machine guns on the roof of the Japanese trucks and the machine guns of the Third Security Regiment inside the gates rang one after another, and people from both sides fell to the ground at the door. Yuuo Oyama, who fired the gun, was the first to be shot into a sieve and fell to the ground.
Kuroki's reaction was quick. When he saw Yuufu Oyama knocking the soldiers of the Third Security Regiment to the ground with a shot, he immediately lay down, then rolled to the side and hid behind another car.
Kuroki hid behind the car and saw that almost ten guards he brought had fallen to the ground, and the heavy machine guns set up in the airport gate quickly suppressed the light machine guns installed on two trucks. The remaining twenty or so guard soldiers were lying on the ground and fighting back at the door.
"Retreat, retreat quickly." Kuroki knew that the conflict was going on, and the reinforcements of the Third Security Regiment would come up immediately and quickly called on the remaining people to retreat.
As soon as the heavy machine gun in the airport gate opened fire, the driver and three cars on the car were quickly shot and were no longer used. Heimu had to take about twenty soldiers and quickly retreat to a small wood next to the airport.
Chen Xiuwen was listening to the situation of Chenxiu in the regiment headquarters for the two Japanese officers who were injured last night. When he heard that the Kitashima Yasuke who intended to tease Lin Jingyun was from the Kitashima family, he couldn't help but smile and said, "No wonder little Japanese is so nervous. It turns out that he injured a big man last night."
He smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, this Kitashima Yasuke is not an ordinary person. His grandfather was the chief guard of Emperor Meiji, and his father also served as the Prime Minister of the Japanese Cabinet. Many members of the Kitashima family have held important positions in the political and military circles. If we beat him up, I'm afraid the Japanese will never give up this time."
Chen Xiuwen said indifferently: "So what if I don't give up? I just don't admit it. Could they come to the door?"
As soon as Chen Xiuwen finished speaking, two gunshots suddenly came from the direction of the gate, followed by dense gunshots. Chen Xiuwen couldn't help but grow up.
"Brother, can it be that the Japanese call it, right?" Chen Zui said subconsciously without having time to react.
Chen Xiuwen woke up like a dream, quickly grabbed the helmet on the table and shouted loudly: "Enemy attack, emergency gathering."
When he walked outside the door, there was already a loud gunfire at the airport door in the distance, and the star-level officer of the regiment headquarters had already blew the whistle for the emergency assembly.
"The regiment commander is a Japanese. There is a gunshot of the 38th rifle, it must be a Japanese." Deputy regiment commander Zheng Huaishan also hurried out of the house wearing a helmet. After all, he was an old army who participated in the 128th Songhu War. Zheng Huaishan heard the sound of the three-step rifle mixed in the gunshots.
