Captain Ikeda was furious and was about to kill the soldiers who ran back to report, Captain Fujiwara rushed forward and grabbed Ikeda's hand with the gun, and when he lifted it to the heights, there was a 'snap' of gunshots, and the bullet flew to the top of the bunker, but the bullet did not penetrate into the roof of the strong bunker, and fell down as soon as it touched it.

The gunshot frightened the messenger and almost collapsed on the ground.

Ikeda shook Fujiwara away and roared, "Bastard, Fujiwara, you bastard, why did you stop me from shooting this soft egg who helped Dohachi deliver the message?" I'm going to shoot him with my own hands, get out of the way of yours. ”

The two squad leaders, Fujiwara and Kondo, stood in front of the messenger who was almost paralyzed, and said almost at the same time: "Captain Ikeda, Tsuchihachi has repeatedly sent you a letter of persuasion to surrender, and once again issued an ultimatum to disarm and surrender, and the Imperial soldiers who delivered the letter are completely under duress.

Now kill this soldier who sent the letter, once the earth eight road attack, there will be one less force to fight back with a gun, it is better to leave him to counterattack the attack of the earth eight road. ”

Eda kicked the messenger in anger and yelled again, "Get out of here, I don't want to see you." The messenger turned around and was about to leave, but Ikeda grabbed him by the collar and pulled him back.

He stared at a pair of angry scarlet eyes, and suddenly turned the little devil who was holding the back collar to stand facing each other, and then slammed it out and asked fiercely: "Tell me, on the way back, how do you see the large army of Tubalu now?" ”

The little devil who delivered the letter trembled and reported: "Report to Captain Ikeda, on the way back, I found a large army of the Dirt Eight Road, which was quickly assembling my three pillboxes, and I also saw that the weapons and ammunition of this Soil Eight Army were completely the equipment of my Imperial Japanese Army, and the soldiers of the Soil Eight Road marched in formation very mighty, not like other Dirt Eight Route troops. ”

"Bastard, you were captured by the Eight Roads of the Earth, and you have the ambition of the Eight Roads, I shot you." Squadron Leader Ikeda took a step forward and slapped the devil in the face, and shouted again: "Is there any artillery unit in the Dirt Eighth Road?" ”

"Report to Squadron Leader Ikeda, I saw an artillery unit of the Tsuchibachi Road, with dozens of mortars, laying out artillery positions behind the frontline troops of the Tsuchibachi Road, and I think that the mortars of the Tubalu Road cannot shake the strong bunkers of our Imperial Japanese Army at all, and they are just a kind of decoration." The little devil who delivered the letter was afraid of exaggerating the firepower of the Eighth Route Army, and was once again humiliated and corporal punishment by Ikeda, the bastard, so he had to add later.

Ikeda nodded and looked at the devil who delivered the letter and said: "Yaxi, what you said is very right, the artillery of the Dirt Eighth Road can't help my bunker at all, just put on a show, and can't destroy my bunker at all, yours get out of my way." ”

He read the ultimatum given to him by the thunder sword in his hand again, frowned and asked the two squad leaders, Fujiwara and Kondo: "This letter of persuasion was written to me by the commander of the Thunder Sword of the only regiment of the Eighth Road, and the letter gave me half an hour to consider, if I don't put some weapons and take the initiative to go out of the bunker and surrender, the only regiment of the Eighth Road will launch a general attack on me at 7:17 this afternoon, and arrogantly threaten to destroy my bunker in an hour and a half, and wipe out all my Ikeda squadron, what do you two think?" ”

Fujiwara pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Your Excellency Ikeda, the Commander of the Dohachi Shina Wazi Lei Jian issued an ultimatum, I think it is just a bluff, as long as we rely on the strong bunker to carry out a powerful firepower counterattack, the attacking troops of the Dohachi Road will not be able to get close to our bunker, and all the Dohagichi will be wiped out in front of our bunker."

I don't believe that the Tsuchihachi Road will destroy our bunker in an hour and a half, and as long as we hold on to it until the large army is reinforced, Ikeda's squadron will flank the Dohachi Road inside and outside, and make a great achievement. ”

Ikeda was a little fluttering by Captain Fujiwara, and was about to praise a few words, when he suddenly found that Captain Kondo's eyes contained deep concern, and he not only asked in a restrained manner, "Kondo-kun, what do you think?" Speak up. ”

Kondo's face was embarrassed, and he said in a tone of shame: "Ikeda-kun, I am an imperial soldier who was captured by the Tsuhachi Road in a coma, and I was forcibly repatriated by the Tsuchihachi Road, and brought back the letters of persuasion from the anti-war allies Harumo Oshima and the commander of the Tsuchihachi One Regiment Shina, Lei Jian, I, Kondo, am a sinner of the Imperial Army, and I dare not talk nonsense at will, please forgive Your Excellency Ikeda." ”

"Hahaha, Kondo-kun, you also know that you are an imperial soldier of the Imperial Japanese Army, this is very good, your capture was completely unconscious and passive captured in a coma, mine is no longer to blame, now the enemy is present, our must sincerely work together to fight back against the attack of the Eighth Road, for the ultimatum of the commander of the thunder sword, you should say your opinion, I ask you to say it now, do you understand?"

When Kondo heard Ikeda say this, he cursed in his heart: "Ikeda, you bastard, now that the enemy is present, in order to deal with the attack of the Tsuchihachi Road, you can temporarily put aside my mistakes and no longer pursue them, once the battle is over, you bastard will definitely hand me over to a military court." Hey, there are so many difficulties, I can only strive to save my life, and hope that this war of aggression against China will end as soon as possible and I can return to my hometown alive. ”

"Kondo-kun, Kondo-kun, what are you thinking? Don't be afraid, don't scruple, don't be afraid of responsibility, my and Fujiwara-kun will definitely protect you with all our might, can you quickly say your opinion? ”

Fujiwara was very unaccustomed to Kondo's virtue, and he pouted and said very unhappily: "Kondo-kun, don't be ignorant, Ikeda-kun has already said just now, you will no longer be held accountable for the crime of being captured, you should be like an imperial soldier, strengthen your confidence in the common prosperity of Greater East Asia, and say your opinion, is it so difficult?" ”

Kondo looked at Ikeda and Fujiwara, and suddenly walked to the lookout hole of the bunker, and saw that the outside was already shrouded in night, and he saw a large number of dark shadows fifty meters away from the bunker by the dim light of the stars and moon.

He turned around sharply and looked at his watch, frowned and said: "Ikeda-kun, it's seventeen o'clock now, and in seventeen minutes it will be the time for Commander Lei Jian of Shina Wazi to give my squadron a deadline to disarm and surrender. ”

When Ikeda and Fujiwara heard Kondo say this, they suddenly rushed to the lookout hole of the bunker in horror, saw that the Eighth Route Army was preparing for a strong attack, turned around and looked at Kondo and asked again, "Kondo-kun, what is your opinion?" Say it quickly. ”

Kondo said calmly: "My Ikeda squadron is now trapped in the bunker by the only regiment of the Tsuchihachi Road, I don't know how much weapons and ammunition are still stored in the bunker, once I don't take the initiative to get out of the bunker and surrender, it will be the biggest fierce battle of the Ikeda squadron so far, and the victory or defeat is difficult to predict." ”

"You mean to tell Ikeda's squadron to come out of the bunker and surrender, right? Bastard, I'm going to shoot you bastard of the Imperial Army who was captured by the Dirt Eight Routes. Captain Fujiwara pulled out his gun and pointed it at Kondo and yelled.

Kondo smiled indifferently: "Fujiwara-kun, I, Kondo, am loyal to the Great Japanese Holy War, loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, and will never put down my arms and take the initiative to go out of the bunker to surrender, you don't have to use a gun to threaten, I, Kondo, know that I have committed an unforgivable sin, once I can fight alive to victory this time, I will take the initiative to ask for self-judgment to apologize to His Majesty the Emperor, don't force me now, I still have something to say." ”

Ikeda waved his hand and motioned Fujiwara to put away the gun, then looked at Kondo with a smile and said: "Kondo-kun, I, Ikeda, do not doubt your determination to the Great East Asian Holy War, nor will I doubt your loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor, but I urgently need to say what you think now, we don't have time, hurry up." ”

The cunning and sinister Kondo looked at Ikeda and Fujiwara, and suddenly said arrogantly: "Ikeda-kun, Fujiwara-kun, my Ikeda squadron is now surrounded by the Tuhachi Road army, and it is impossible to break through the encirclement and kill them.

But I think that the only way to insist on the time for Doctor Oshima and Lei Jian's first letter of surrender to surrender is to delay it until 24 hours, during which time we can find a way to break out or wait for reinforcements.

The second point I want to say is to immediately ask Captain Matsumoto for reinforcements again, and implore the troops to be sent for reinforcements quickly, if these two points are not reached, my Ikeda squadron that sticks to the bunker can only fight to the death with the Tsuchihachiro, and finally fight to the last bullet, and would rather break all the jade than surrender to the Tsuchihachi, this is the attitude of my Kondo. ”

Ikeda patted Kondo on the shoulder and said, "Onishi, Kondo-kun's thoughts are the same as mine, and I immediately ask the Commander of the Tsuchihachi Road, Lei Jian, to comply with the deadline of the first letter of persuasion, give me time to think about it, and I will ask the captain of the Matsumoto Wing again now." ”
