Chapter 604: Hunting at Chibi
The Japanese invaders were rampant and brutal, and this was an era that was extremely in need of heroes.
Xiang Chu achieved such a great feat that he was announced at the meeting to be promoted to commander of the 34th Army.
Long Sheng was dumbfounded and asked Ye Guang: "Chief of Staff! Which unit is the 34th Army?"
Ye Guang smiled bitterly and said, "Commander! Is there any need to ask? The 34th Division has been upgraded to an army."
"Ah? The crappy 34th Division was promoted!"
Long Sheng cried out in shock and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of sour water.
Because he was extremely angry, he sprayed very far, directly onto Zeng Yun's wig.
Everyone was stunned and looked towards Long Sheng who was sitting in the back seat with a look of envy and jealousy.
Long Sheng quickly defended himself: "I really didn't mean it."
"Come on! Wipe it off."
Chen Guo took out a handkerchief and kindly wiped Zeng Yun's hair.
Unexpectedly, Zeng Yun's black wig was removed, revealing his "Mediterranean" bald head.
Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter, even the important person sitting on the stage was amused.
Zeng Yun wished he could find a hole to crawl into and quickly put on a wig.
He turned his head and glared fiercely at the frightened Long Sheng.
Ning Changde said anxiously, "Commander Zeng! Go to my office at the Quartermaster Bureau and have it handled. I have all kinds of wigs there."
"All right!"
Zeng Yun nodded.
He hurriedly stood up with Ning Changde and left the meeting room.
Long Sheng and Ye Guang hurriedly left their seats and followed them.
Long Sheng also kept apologizing to Zeng Yun: "Chief Zeng! I really didn't mean it. I drank too much soy milk this morning."
Zeng Yun was too lazy to pay attention to him and said to Ning Changde, "Director Ning! I'm going to the bathroom to wash up. Can you help me find a few more?"
"no problem!"
Ning Changde nodded.
He walked down the second floor stairs and headed straight for his office.
Long Sheng and Ye Guang exchanged glances and hurriedly followed his steps.
Ning Changde asked in confusion: "Why are you two following me?"
Long Sheng said viciously: "Ning Changde! Come with us."
After saying this, he pounced towards Ning Changde.
Ning Changde was a man of action when he was young. He served as the military intelligence station in Changsha for many years and his hidden skills were amazing.
He dodged suddenly and pushed Long Sheng on the back.
Long Sheng couldn't stop the car, and with the push from him, he fell to the ground in the corridor.
The floor of the corridor was made of cement, and Long Sheng's head hit the ground, leaving his face and nose bruised and swollen instantly.
"Ah?!" He let out a scream.
Seeing him fail, Ye Guang immediately stood aside and said with a smile:
"Director Ning! Lieutenant General Long is joking with you."
Ning Changde shouted angrily: "You are kidding! You two just wanted to kidnap me."
Because of Long Sheng's scream, the meeting was suspended and countless people and military police rushed over.
"Master! Let's go!"
Ye Guang said anxiously, and pulled Long Sheng up and ran away.
Ning Changde was a man who preferred to keep out of trouble. He pointed at the two men's backs and shouted angrily, "This is outrageous. It's not enough to attack Chief Zeng, but you dare to attack me, the director."
Zeng Yun arrived first and said to Ning Changde, "Don't worry, Director Ning. I will immediately send someone to force these two guys to leave Chongqing and return to Yunnan to fight on the front line with the 1st Army."
Ning Changde said bitterly: "Yes! Let these two playboys get out of Chongqing immediately."
South of the Yangtze River, Chibi.
Doihara Kenji led the brigade, burning, killing and looting along the way, and stopped at the ancient battlefield of Chibi.
He took a motorboat to the foot of Chibi and enjoyed "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" with great interest.
Yamashita Yoshiaki reported loudly: "Your Excellency, the great Lieutenant General! Dalong's plan to assassinate Chu Xi, the commander of the 34th Army, failed. He has no choice but to leave Chongqing and go to Yunnan. He will bring the elite 1st Mixed Division to fight in Hunan and Hubei."
Doihara Xianer was so angry that he yelled, "Baka! Lord Chu was promoted to the commander of the 34th Army, but Long Sheng has made no progress at all. What a good-for-nothing."
Takahashi Taisho corrected him: "Mr. Brigade Commander! You should call him a glutton."
"Baga! You're also a glutton."
Doihara Kenji was so angry that he threw the copy of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" which he couldn't understand at Takahashi Taisho.
Takahashi Taisho took the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and shouted, "Mr. Brigade Commander! You should learn from the characters in this book and fight with the Chinese Chu Gonghui at Red Cliff to determine who is the better of them all!"
"Yoshi! Your suggestion is very good."
Doihara Kenji nodded with satisfaction and gave a loud order:
"Ji Qiu! You send the following declaration of war to the Chinese Supreme Command in plain text telegram: Because Chu Xi of your 34th Army is arrogant and has repeatedly bullied Brigade Commander Doihara, we now invite the two armies to hunt in Chibi in the third spring.
If the 34th Army dares not to fight, each member of the Doihara Brigade will kill Chinese. Fuso leader! The second day of the first lunar month in the th year of the Showa era.
Yamashita Yoshiaki was surprised and asked, "Will it be a violation of the authority to sign the name of the head of the group?"
Doihara Kenji said disapprovingly: "The boss will understand!"
"Hello!"
Yamashita Yoshiaki accepted the order reluctantly.
He sent the telegram exactly as Doihara Kan'ei had instructed.
Chongqing, combat research conference room.
When the superiors saw the telegram sent by the intelligence officer, they were all at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Minister He smiled bitterly and said, "It must be Doihara Ken'er pretending to be the head of Fuso. Don't worry about him."
Minister Chen shook his head and said, "No! We still need to let Chu Xi return to Anlong and fight him."
Commander Bai agreed, "Yes! We should send the 34th Army to Chibi to destroy the Doihara Kenji Brigade."
Commander Li said anxiously: "The Japanese have so many troops in Chibi, the 34th Army will be surrounded and engulfed if they go there."
This is indeed a big deal. It is impossible for Okamura Ningchi to allow Doihara Kan'er to act like this, so he will definitely send troops.
Minister Chen thought for a moment and said, "Let's give this telegram to Chu Xi and let him make the decision himself."
But the master made the decision and said, "Girl Xi keeps clamoring for Lieutenant General Chu Xi to be promoted to general. Then let him lead the 34th Army to fight a decisive battle with the Doihara Brigade. If he wins, he will be promoted. If he loses, he will be dismissed."
"Good! Good idea."
Many people immediately flattered him.
Minister Chen couldn't help but secretly groan: "Xiang boy! It seems that you have no hope of being promoted to general."
No. 122, Shaanxi Street, Yangtze River Bookstore.
Ning Caiwei took the lead and walked out of the library with a book.
She walked around casually and got into the car driven by Xiang Chu.
Ning Caiwei said happily: "Brother Chu! I have given the million pounds to Sister Jiang. Don't worry about her character!"
Xiang Chu drove the engine away and nodded, "Yes! This comrade rescued from the dungeon at No. 19 Ninghai Road is extremely loyal. By the way, she is also Yang Jiang's fiancée."
Ning Caiwei smiled and said, "I know. She was my senior at Shanghai Hongguang Girls' Middle School."
"real?!"
Xiang Chu was very surprised and nodded, "The organization's arrangement is very good, suitable for you two to cover up."
The two chatted all the way, and soon the car arrived at Wei Xi Yaju at the foot of Lihua Mountain.
Inspector Jiang was waiting at the door. He handed Xiang Chu a piece of order and said indifferently, "Mr. Chu! The Supreme Command orders you to hunt with the Doihara Kenji Brigade at Chibi."
"Hunting at Chibi?!"
Xiang Chu was shocked and quickly took over the order.
Inspector Jiang taunted, "If you can't win, you will be dismissed from your post. Take care of yourself! Haha!"
After saying this, he laughed out loud and drove away.
