After the little devil found that someone had escaped over the city wall, he immediately gathered his forces and went out of the city to pursue.

As a result, the little devil had just chased out a few miles, and was ambushed by the main force of the martial arts team that came to meet him, and the dense gunfire and explosions rang out, and the little devil was caught off guard, suffered heavy losses, and after leaving dozens of corpses, he retreated in a hurry.

Noma Nakasa, who received the news, finally understood one thing, that is, this matter was done by the Eighth Route Army's military engineering team, because there was no formed anti-Japanese armed force in the vicinity except for the military engineering team.

Annoyed and angry, Noma Nakasa wants to gather all the Japanese troops in the city and go out of the city to fight to the death with the martial arts team.

In the end, he was persuaded by his subordinates, because at this time, it was estimated that the military engineering team had withdrawn, and even if they went out of the city again, they might not be able to catch up, not to mention that the situation was unknown, the enemy situation was unknown, and they might not be able to win if they attacked rashly, and in the end they could only stop there.

In the early morning of the next day, Gangcun Ning rushed to the headquarters early, and as soon as he entered the door, he ordered someone to call the chief of staff An Da 23 to his office.

"Your Excellency, Commander!" Anda Twenty-Three said respectfully.

Gangcun Ningci had a gloomy face and asked coldly, "Is there any progress in the affairs of Cangzhou?" Has the murderer been caught? ”

Soon after the incident, Gangcun Ningci received the news, but he was far away in Beiping and couldn't help at all, except for ordering the Japanese troops in Cangzhou to do their best to arrest the murderer, he was only left in a hurry.

Anda Twenty-three frowned, and said with a look of shame: "Your Excellency Commander, according to the report of Nomura Nakasa in Cangzhou, last night those murderers climbed over the city wall and fled from Cangzhou City, and the imperial army sent troops to pursue, but they were ambushed by the main force of the martial arts team, and dozens of imperial warriors were broken, and when the imperial army gathered troops to go out of the city to check, the martial arts team had fled far away. ”

Gangcun Ningji listened to all this quietly, the muscles on his face trembled, and then he gritted his teeth and scolded: "Baga! A bunch of rubbish! I can't do such a thing, and the face of the Imperial Japanese Army has made these rice buckets all gone. ”

"Hello!" Anda Twenty-Three responded respectfully, and stood aside obediently and didn't dare to say anything more.

After all, this time the incident was too big, and the Japanese originally arranged a good show, but the pig's foot was blown up, and a lieutenant general division commander was also hooked, which can be said to have lifted a stone and shot himself in the foot.

And there were so many Chinese and foreign reporters at the scene at that time, this matter couldn't be hidden, the little devil could be said to have lost face this time, no wonder Gangcun Ningci was so angry.

Gangcun Ningji scolded, and the evil anger in his heart was finally eliminated, and he frowned and said: "In this way, this matter is done by the hateful martial arts team again." ”

Anda Twenty-Three hurriedly responded: "Haiyi! Judging from the current situation, most of this matter was done by the martial arts team. Now that the martial arts team has gradually grown and grown, it seems to have become a big problem for the imperial army, and it must be eradicated as soon as possible. ”

"Damn it!" Gangcun Ningci gritted his teeth and scolded: "I didn't expect this Liu Hong to be so powerful, and he has repeatedly humiliated the imperial army, it seems that the martial arts team must be eliminated as soon as possible, even if it is at the cost of a wing, it will not hesitate." ”

"Hello! Your Excellency, the commander of the division, is wise. Anda Twenty-Three said respectfully.

Gangcun Ningci sighed deeply, and said with a look of loss: "This incident in Cangzhou reminds me of a story. ”

"Story?" Anda Twenty-Three asked with a frown.

Gangcun Ningji nodded and asked, "Hmm! Anda-kun, I don't know if you remember General Yoshinori Shirakawa. ”

"Hello!" Anda Twenty-three hurriedly replied: "Your Excellency General Yoshinori Shirakawa is an excellent general of the Imperial Army, but he was assassinated in Shanghai ten years ago, and finally died of his injuries, and was posthumously promoted to baron by His Majesty the Emperor. It's just that General Shirakawa died young, which is really regrettable. ”

Gangcun Ningci nodded and said: "Yes, it was 10 years ago, that is, in 1932 AD, when the imperial army had just launched the 918 Incident in the northeast, and in just half a year, it occupied the three eastern provinces and was preparing to build Manchukuo. ”

Gangcun Ningji paused for a moment, and then said: "In order to divert the attention of the international community, the base camp planned to launch a war in Shanghai, so there was the later '128' incident. Originally, the base camp thought that it could quickly occupy Shanghai as it did in Shenyang. ”

When Gangmura Ningji said this, he sighed deeply and said: "As a result, the Imperial Army was stubbornly resisted by the defenders of Shanghai, the 19th Route Army of China, and the marines stationed in Shanghai launched several large-scale offensives, and finally ended in a fiasco, and even the Marine Corps Headquarters was captured by the People, which made our Imperial Japanese Army lose face. ”

Gangmura Ningji continued: "The emperor was furious, and the base camp was also furious, so he could only continue to increase his troops in Shanghai, but the resistance of the 19th Route Army was stubborn, and the imperial army had to change commanders three times, and His Excellency General Shirakawa Yoshinori was the fourth commander of the Shanghai Dispatch Army. ”

"After General Shirakawa Yoshinori took office, Shanghai had gathered 100,000 elite imperial troops at that time, and under the command of General Shirakawa Yoshinori, the imperial army finally captured Shanghai, forcing the Chinese army to withdraw from the downtown area of Shanghai."

"On April 29, 1932, I will never forget this day, when the headquarters decided to hold a grand celebration ceremony in Hongqiao Park, and the scene was very grand and there was a military parade. The parade was attended by 13,000 Imperial Army warriors and thousands of Japanese nationals. ”

At 11:30 a.m., just as the grand ceremony was coming to an end, in the drizzle, tens of thousands of imperial soldiers and thousands of Japanese overseas Chinese sang the national anthem, and all their attention was focused on the review stand. At this moment, a bomb flew out of the ranks of the Japanese overseas Chinese, landed accurately on the review stand, and exploded with a bang. ”

Everyone on the review stand fell in a pool of blood, Kawabata-kun, chairman of the administrative committee of the People's Republic of China in Shanghai, was killed on the spot, Vice Admiral Kenkichi Ueda, then commander of the Ninth Division, and Aoi Shigemitsu, the Japanese minister to China, both had their legs blown off, Vice Admiral Kichizaburo Nomura, commander of the Third Fleet of the Japanese Empire, was blown blind in one eye, and Murai, the Japanese consul general in Shanghai, and others were also injured. His Excellency Commander Yoshinori Shirakawa was also seriously injured in the bombing and was later taken to the hospital for emergency treatment, where he died about a month later, on May 26. ”

When Gangcun Ningci said this, he sighed deeply again, and said with a sad face: "What happened in Shanghai ten years ago is so similar to what happened in Cangzhou yesterday!" ”
