Chapter 874: No compensation
"What does Commander Liao want? As long as I can afford Xue Boling, Commander Liao can take it! ”
At this time, as long as Wuhan can be successfully recovered, what Liao Fan wants, he Xue Boling will give! However, what Liao Fan wanted, Xue Boling was destined to not be able to give, just like the 100,000 prisoners of war of the Japanese army, he Xue Boling couldn't believe that Liao Fan would take out so many Japanese prisoners of war, naturally what Liao Fan wanted was unusual!
"I want the right to pass, from Southeast Asia to Taihang Mountain, as long as it is the materials and goods transported by the New 33rd Army, I don't care about other places, and I can't inspect them in the national control area!"
Although the New 33rd Army has a lot of weapons that can be produced by itself, Liao Fan also knows very well that they cannot rely only on the Soviet Union, otherwise the Soviet Union will definitely become an important factor hindering their development in the future! The diversity of technology allows them to have more choices without limitations!
So Liao Fan did not cancel the matter in Germany, after all, he still borrowed from Germany, and the more he borrowed, the more courageous Liao Fan became, and all kinds of technical weapons were constantly introduced into the country!
"The right of way!"
Xue Boling didn't expect Liao Fan to ask for such a thing, he knew that last time Liao Fan had 600 tanks from Burma ashore, and after entering the country, they passed through the Guotong area and paid a lot of tolls! Although he Xue Boling did not take any of the benefits, he also knew that Liao Fan must have paid a lot for the six hundred tanks.
"Yes, as long as I have the right to pass, rest assured that our troops will definitely not enter your defense area in violation of the regulations, and we only need a pass to ensure that our goods can enter Taihang Mountain smoothly!"
100,000 Japanese prisoners of war in exchange for a pass, for Liao Fan, this deal is a big loss! But he can't help but do this business, after all, it is related to hundreds of thousands of people in Wuhan, no matter how selfish Liao Fan is, he also knows that the people are the sky!
"This ...... Commander Liao, can you offer other conditions, I'm afraid this pass is not easy to handle, and it needs to be signed by Chairman Jiang! Xue Boling did not dare to guarantee that Chairman Jiang would agree to give Liao Fan a pass.
"General Xue, even if you tell Chairman Chiang about my conditions! I'll start counting the Japanese prisoners of war for you tomorrow morning, just waiting for General Xue to send someone to negotiate terms with the little devil!" ”
Xue Boling didn't know where Liao Fan's confidence came from, why was he so sure that Chairman Jiang would sign a special pass for them! But he had no choice but to do what Liao Fan said!
Sure enough, Xue Boling had just brought the news to Chongqing, and only an hour later, he received a reply from Chairman Jiang, asking him to talk to the little devil as soon as possible! The matter of the pass is guaranteed to be completed within three days and sent to Taihang Mountain!
Xue Boling was thoughtful about this matter, but he didn't want to ask Liao Fan directly! He began to have his subordinates contact the Japanese army and prepare to negotiate with the Japanese army!
"Swap people for Wuhan?" When Okamura Ninji just received this news, he didn't believe that the Chinese would do this, and thought that the Chinese were going to do some tricks and deliberately set traps for them!
"That's right! The news came from Xue Boling's command, it doesn't look like fake news, and they also conveyed it to us through other channels! ”
Okamura Ninji frowned: "How many people are they going to exchange for Wuhan?" ”
"50,000 people on the news!"
"Fifty thousand?"
Okamura Ningji's mind was lively, they lost more than 40,000 people in Wuhan, which is completely equivalent to letting them let Wuhan out without making any gains!
"The news also said that things can be discussed, and the specific number of people will be decided after the two sides have talked!"
Of course, Okamura Ninji knows the routine of the Chinese negotiation, 50,000 people is the bottom line in their hearts, but it is definitely not the bottom line in the hearts of the Chinese, through negotiations they can exchange more Japanese soldiers!
"Okay, in that case, let's get some contact with them first!"
Whatever the outcome, Okamura was determined to give it a try, and maybe they would be able to make the most of it.
The first contact between the irregular negotiators of the Japanese army and the Nationalist army began, and they were not actual negotiators, but only came to understand the matter, and only after the matter was clearly understood, the official negotiators of both sides would make contact.
"Xue Ya, this time you brought two people to go with the negotiators of the national army, the purpose is not to negotiate, and don't care about our gains and losses, just to learn more experience!"
Liao Fan arranged for Xue Ya to go with the negotiators of the national army, the purpose was to learn, after all, Liao Fan would train them to become a group of political workers in Taihang Mountain, and it was indispensable to practice a good mouth.
As a result, the tug-of-war with the Japanese army in Wuhan turned into a tug-of-war at the negotiating table, and the national army negotiators also knew that it was irresponsible to themselves and the people of the country to let the tiger return to the mountain! So every time you make a concession, you will add 500 bargaining chips to the little devils!
As a result, the matter was discussed for two days, and the national army negotiators only promised to give the Japanese army 51,000 men!
"Our troops lost 46,000 men in the battle for Wuhan alone! Are you going to pay this compensation? No, we won't agree, if you continue to talk like this, we don't want the warriors in Wuhan! ”
From time to time, the little devils threaten the Chinese negotiators with the safety of the people in Wuhan, so that the Chinese negotiators have to make concessions!
"Don't always threaten us, if something goes wrong with our people in Wuhan, I will order you little devil prisoners of war to screw off their heads, and then use them as balls!"
In the past few days, they have always been threatened by the little devils, and the Chinese negotiators can't stand it, if the little devils dare to threaten again, they will first take the prisoners of war of the little devils!
"They are all warriors of the Empire, they will not fear life and death, and they should be loyal to the Emperor!" The little devil negotiators look proud, they will not be subject to the Chinese!
"Don't blow it, your emperor doesn't care about them, otherwise why would they surrender? Don't coax yourself to play, we are also the last price, 55,000 people, if you don't agree, we will use the heads of these 55,000 people as balls! ”
China's negotiators refused to lose momentum in front of the little devils, China has been bullied by the little devils for so many years, that is the national strength is not good! Since it is now an equal negotiation, how can the Chinese negotiators lose their national prestige!
The little devil negotiator blushed, if it was really because of the sacrifice for the emperor, where would there be such a surrender!
"We also have a fixed price, at least 80,000 people!"
Of course, the Japanese also wanted to be able to return one more person, after all, these prisoners of war were veterans of the battlefield, and after returning, they could train a little and then return to the battlefield. But I'm afraid this is their wishful thinking!
The Chinese negotiators looked at each other and decided not to lower the price anymore, because they had already won the name of 20,000 people!
"But the quota of 80,000 people includes the Japanese troops in Wuhan City!"
In the end, the Chinese negotiators even forcibly pulled out the quota of 5,000 people! Originally, Liao Fan wanted to give away 100,000 places, but he didn't expect to save 20,000 yuan, this negotiation is not a loss!
"Brother Fan, the news has come back, we only need seventy-five thousand people on our side!"
"Good! Then pick someone! Remember, pick the ones that look like they're dying, and keep the sturdy ones for me, and I'm counting on them to do the work for us! ”
Since you have to pick people, the operability of this is strong, send back those who can't work, Liao Fan also saved a lot of food, and you can still work if you leave those who are strong!
As a result, the 75,000 people selected were all old, weak, sick and disabled, and some of them looked like they were about to fall at the touch of their hands, as if they had deliberately touched porcelain! Even some little devils have to be carried on stretchers!
When the little devils came to check the numbers, they couldn't believe that these were their soldiers.
"They won't be disguised by you using Chinese!"
The leader of the little devil asked angrily, this is not their soldiers at all, their soldiers are all alive and well, one person can beat four or five Chinese, but these people can beat four or five of them if an eighty-year-old lady can beat them!
"Isn't it your people, don't you ask them for yourselves? They had their own numbers before they were captured, and we couldn't find so many people who could speak Japanese to pretend to be! ”
It was the person sent by Liao Fan who came to supervise the acceptance of the little devil, and he glanced at the little devil with contempt and looked at them like two fools!
"Hurry up and check, in case a few people die in the middle of the delay, we won't compensate!"
The little devil had no choice but to ask a few people about the number of their original unit and who the commander was, and after confirming that these people were really the warriors of their empire, tears almost flowed out!
Those verified little devils also understood that the Chinese did not give them enough food, and forced them to engage in manual labor every day, so they became like this, and it is estimated that they will not be able to raise them for half a year!
"Alright, is the verification done? Take it away and waste food with us! The officer arranged by Liao Fan urged the little devil to take everyone away quickly, in case he died here, he would be in charge!
The Japanese army in Wuhan also left Wuhan under the full monitoring of the national army, and from now on Wuhan returned to the embrace of the motherland!
As for Okamura Ninji, after seeing the redeemed prisoners of war, his heart was so cold, they originally wanted to immediately integrate these soldiers into the army and then defend their defense area, but seeing these thin soldiers who didn't look like people and couldn't even pick up a gun, Okamura Ninji had no way except to scold!
"Centralize them, ensure everything from food to medical care, and arrange for people to review them, what if there are agents who Chinese mix in!"
has been dealing with the New 33rd Army for a long time, Okamura Ningji has a heart that will always be on guard against Liao Fan from unexpected places! However, no matter how stupid Liao Fan is, it is impossible to arrange his own manpower among these people.
