Chapter Forty-Nine: Negotiation (3) The Big Fish

"Envoy Schlatózh, watch your words! The Third Reich was absolutely not afraid of any country, not even the world's first-class powers. The Great German Reich did not need other countries to defend its honor, and the Greater German Reich had proven it with its strength, and we were able to defeat any country that dared to threaten us, as evidenced by the defeat of France. ”

Xu Jun's voice was as cold as an iceberg in the North Pole.

"I was distracted, what did you say?"

Hiroshi Oshima hurriedly leaned in and whispered to Toshio Shiratori, whose face was as red as a roasted lobster.

"I just want him to pay attention to the fact that Japan can relieve the pressure from the country of Lu for the independence country, and let him think about the importance of maintaining good relations with our country."

"Confused! How can you mention this to them when they have just achieved brilliant results, it will be seen by them as a threat, an insult to them. ”

Glaring at Shiratori, Hiroshi Oshima leaned on the table with a smirk on his face and bowed to Xu Jun.

"Your Excellency, I beg your pardon for the careless remarks of the Special Envoy Schlatozhy, and I can assure you in my personality that he had absolutely no other meaning than a casual joke. I am very sorry for the unfortunate offense, please forgive him, and I and Special Envoy Schlatózh solemnly apologize to you, I am sorry. ”

Hiroshi Oshima and Toshio Shiratori stood up at the same time and bowed to Xu Jun.

"Forget it."

Xu Jun regained his previous indifferent look and waved his hand gently.

"I can no longer hold Ambassador Schlatózh accountable for his gaffes. But let the Special Envoys remember that I do not want to hear similar statements from you before me again. Although there was a time in history when Germany had an unpleasant conflict with Russia. However, Germany and Russia are now friendly neighbors, and Germany and Russia have good cooperation in various fields, and I hope that this good cooperation will be maintained and continued. As a diplomat, it is very inappropriate for Special Envoy Schlatózh to say such irresponsible remarks not only in question the ability of the powerful German and German teams, but also to sow discord between Germany and its allies. ”

Xu Jun coldly glanced at the two Japanese envoys who nodded vigorously to express their education and reflection, and after taking a sip of tea, he continued: "Since the special envoy Schlatori said that it was unintentional, and the content of this meeting will not be in danger of leaking, I have decided to accept your apology. ”

"Thank you very much, Your Excellency the Führer, and I assure Envoy Schlatózh that this mistake will not be repeated."

Hiroshi Oshima bowed his head again.

"Very well, then we can move on to the previous topic. I would like to know whether the Government of Japan has proposed a remedial plan for this matter. As you are well aware, this is a serious diplomatic matter. The German government has always valued good relations with the Japanese Empire, but I am very disappointed that I did not expect that Germany's goodwill would be reciprocated in such a way. I hope that the Japanese Government will be able to give a satisfactory answer to Germany on this matter. ”

"This ...... Your Excellency the Honorable Führer, Indeed, the Imperial Government of Japan did have a remedy for this matter. The Imperial Government of Japan did not wish to see the good friendship between the Empire of Japan and the German Empire harmed by this regrettable incident. The Imperial Government has authorized me to take full responsibility in this matter, and to do my utmost to mend the relations between you and us.

At the same time, my Government hopes that His Excellency the Führer will view this incident with calm and restraint, and that the Japanese Empire will prove by concrete deeds that it remains the best friend and the staunchest ally of the German Empire. Hiroshi Oshima said respectfully.

"I agree with your Government that I also do not want to see the good relations that Germany and Japan have built up over the years to be harmed. Therefore, from the very beginning, our side has handled this matter with a restrained and calm attitude, otherwise there would not have been this meeting. Again, this is the reason why we did not disclose this incident to the outside world in the first place.

However, I would like to remind Mr. Special Envoy that this incident is absolutely not an accident, and I hope that the Japanese Government will conduct a detailed investigation into this matter in Japan. Moreover, we can see from the officer's confession that there is an unfriendly ideology against Germany in Japan, and I hope that the Japanese government will pay attention to this matter, and I don't want anything like this to happen again. ”

For the first time, a smile appeared on Xu Jun's face, but in the eyes of Hiroshi Oshima, this smile that shone like the sun exuded a chill like a glacier.

"Rest assured that we will convey to the Imperial Government the wishes of the Führer. Before doing so, allow me, on behalf of the Imperial Government of Japan, to express my heartfelt gratitude to His Excellency the Führer. Thank you, Your Excellency, for your concern and attention to the friendship between our two countries. Your Excellency is the wisest and most tolerant foreign head of state you have ever seen in your nineteen years of diplomatic career, and the leader of the most powerful country in Europe. ”

"Special Envoy Toshio is really polite."

Xu Jun regained his grim expression and responded lightly.

It's not useless to pat yourself on the back, speaking of which, Xu Jun eats this very much, but he is only immune to the Japanese.

"Your Excellency, Honorable Führer, before discussing the specific issue of compensation, allow me to ask a question. In the information obtained by our side before, all the members of the Imperial Japanese Army Observation Mission to France were detained by the German side, and I don't know if this news is true. Hiroshi Oshima asked respectfully.

"Well, there's such a thing. We found the members of the Japanese Army Observer Group at the assassin's station, and because we suspected that they were related to the assassin, we temporarily detained all the members of the Military Observer Group. Do you have any doubts about this? ”

Xu Jun shook the teacup in his hand lightly and raised his eyebrows.

"We have no doubt about that, since this is the case, we can understand your actions, this is a proper investigation process, and it is the same in all countries. It's just that...... It's just that I've read the entire investigation report, and there is no evidence in it that the Japanese Army Observer Mission is involved in this matter.

I would like to know the current situation of the Japanese Army Observer Mission, especially the seized Tomeyoqi. Lieutenant General Yamasta with a long delay. Admiral Trauche two army generals, what is their current situation. ”

Oshima asked eagerly, before coming, the Ministry of War sent a telegram to solemnly advise that it was necessary to find out the current situation of these two people.

"Oh, Toshio envoy, you can rest assured that your Army Observer Mission is fine right now. When it was found out that they had nothing to do with the assassination, they were well taken care of by the German Army. ”

Xu Jun said this, and his face was filled with that kind of cold smile again.

How could I not take good care of these beasts?

============================================================

In charge of the investigation was "Odin's right eye", and the anger and shame caused by the Führer's assassination brought the efficiency of the entire department to its peak, and there was a passion for investigating the matter from top to bottom.

The Germans had passion, and the Japanese suffered. Thanks to the efforts of the torture masters carefully trained by the SS Security Bureau and the Gestapo headquarters, none of the "samurai" of the Great Japanese Empire made it to sunrise the next day, and all of them confessed before 10 o'clock in the evening.

However, this is not meant to be the end of the suffering of the Japanese. For no one could get off their racks until the euphoria of the German executioners subsided, and no one thought of getting them off the racks. The torture, it should be said that it was a simple execution, lasted until noon the next day. As more than eighty hungry German men rushed into the prison guard's canteen with gusto, thirty-two Japanese "samurai" with blood gourds were sent to the wards of the prison hospital.

The medical skills of the Germans were among the best in the world at the time, and they had the best surgeons and the best executioners. The executioners trained by the SS Security Directorate and the Gestapo headquarters were well known for their professionalism and were unanimously recognized by the prison authorities. Although they were tortured for more than 20 hours, they were all only traumatic, and none of the Japanese were in danger of life. When the Japanese "samurai" were carefully bandaged into exquisite mummies by German military doctors, their densely written confessions were also sent to Xu Jun.

With a serious face, Dogen reported to Xu Jun that there were two big fish mixed among the Japanese thugs captured in the tavern, and these two guys claimed to be the head and deputy head of the Japanese Army Observation Group. At first, Xu Jun thought that Dogen was joking, but then he realized that the signature on one of the confessions was really familiar.

Lieutenant General of the Japanese Army, Deputy Chief of the Japanese Army Observer Corps Tomeryuki. Yamasta...... Yamashta, Yamashita ...... Yamashita Bongbun! Xu Jun was stunned at that time. When he reacted, Xu Jun hurriedly picked up another confession from Big Fish. Japanese Army General, Japanese Army Observer Corps Long Late. Trauschi...... Trauche is a temple ...... Shouichi Terauchi, Xu Jun could hardly believe his eyes. Looking at these two "famous" names, Xu Jun couldn't help but look up to the sky and smile, he didn't expect that the "famous generals" and "military gods" of the Imperial Japanese Army would fall into his hands.

Xu Jun immediately ordered Dogen and the Führer Guard to surround the hotel where the Japanese Army Observer Group was staying, detain all the members of the Japanese Army Observer Group, and strictly ordered that no one should be allowed to slip through the net. The two general-level mummies were then ordered to be sent to the German Army Hospital for treatment, to be kept under strict care twenty-four hours a day, and no unrelated personnel were allowed to approach the ten meters around the ward.

With these two trump cards in his hand, Xu Jun believes that he will be invincible in the negotiations with the Japanese government, and he can play a big vote now.

That night, Xu Jun urgently summoned Weierle and Kirsten, and the three of them held a secret meeting in the small conference room of the base camp. At noon the next day, more than 80 strong German men stormed the prison ward and dragged away the remaining 30 Japanese mummies. Subsequently, the German executioners did not even remove the gauze and directly hung the Japanese back on the torture rack that had already made them frightened.

After a warm-up torture and a bloody howl of wolves, the German translator, who was sitting behind the desk, pointed to the executioner who was holding a nine-tailed cat with an unfinished face, and coldly said something that almost made the other party nervous.

"If you don't want to continue to be tortured, then retract your confession."
