Chapter 804: Death of a Smart Man
"This road is far away, it is comparable to the three armies......"
After a long time, amid the angry scolding of many generals, Shouichi Terauchi finally spoke.
Originally, everyone thought that although this Lu Yuan had caused huge losses to the empire, their definition of Lu Yuan was still similar to those eight roads, like a rogue, although annoying, but not fatal after all, only the frontal battlefield is the only criterion for truly testing whether a general is an excellent general, and it is also the only factor that determines the success or failure of the empire's East Asian co-prosperity strategy.
But now, the appearance of Lu Yuan directly twisted the hundreds of thousands of troops that were still crushed in front of the imperial army a month ago into a rope, such a figure is definitely a rare general, and no one dares to underestimate him!
What's even more terrifying is that with such a fierce offensive outside Zhongmu City, it is impossible for the 14th Division to hold out for more than three days, and the 16th Division is blocked by the Zhina Army in the area of Yuewangmiao, and it is impossible to rush to the aid of Zhongmu and the 14th Division in a short period of time!
At that time, the entire strategic plan will completely collapse, not only will it fail to annihilate these hundreds of thousands of that army, but it will bury the 14th Division, which will definitely be an incomparably major blow to the empire!
Stealing chickens doesn't make it okay to lose rice, but as the formulator of the entire strategic plan, Terauchi Shouichi knows that he will definitely be sent to the military tribunal of the empire and give an explanation to the soldiers who died!
As a staunch supporter of this plan, Nishio Shouzo's face was also difficult to see, in just one day, the battle situation would become the way it is now, which they definitely did not expect before the war.
"Although the battle situation is unexpected, Lieutenant General Kenji Dohihara is a generation of geniuses, and it is not so easy for the Shina army to eat them in a short period of time!"
A general stood up and said: "As long as our plan is not leaked, when the time comes, the reinforcements of our army will break through the Guandu line like a divine soldier, and no matter what the outcome of the battlefield in the Zhongmu area is, the Chinese army will only be left to flee in embarrassment......"
"Yes, yes, as long as the reinforcements of our army can arrive in time to relieve the siege of Zhongmu, there should still be a chance!"
A group of generals echoed in unison, for them, the only expectation now was that the Sakagaki Division and the 10th Brigade marching towards Guandu would be able to firmly attract all the attention, and then cover up the fact that the two divisions mobilized from Beiping and Tianjin had descended on the battlefield as divine soldiers!
Listening to these words, Terauchi Shouichi and Nishio Shouzo didn't say a word, and now the cards that should be played have been played, which is also their last hole card, except for looking forward to these, there is no other backhand.
However, their hearts could not settle down at all, because although the two divisions mobilized from Beiping and Tianjin acted secretively enough, the military command spies on the side of the Zhina Army and the secret agents on the Eighth Route were all pervasive, and once the situation of the mobilization of these troops was leaked and the Zhina Army made corresponding adjustments, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"Your Excellency, things have come to this point, no matter how much we worry about it, there is no point in it......"
After all the generals had withdrawn, Nishio Shouzo said, "I just hope that His Excellency Yoshikawa Sadasa's side has done a good enough job in eliminating the spies, and can delay the leakage of news as much as possible......
Terauchi Shouichi nodded silently, the battle situation has developed so far, everything that can be done has been done, and the rest can only depend on the will of heaven.
In Beiping City, a man in a long shirt walked through the alleys in a hurry, the brim of his hat was pressed very low, and the rapid pace made him look like his wife at home was about to give birth.
The man's woman obviously didn't have children, but the information he heard was a hundred times more important than his wife giving birth to a child, a thousand times, and he couldn't wait to drive out of the city immediately and convey the news.
Then, his footsteps suddenly stopped, and a few hundred meters in front of him was the city gate, but seven or eight men dressed in short shirts blocked his way!
The comer is not good!
The man in the long shirt chuckled in his heart, turned his head and wanted to go back, but as soon as he turned around, he saw four or five men with fierce expressions smiling and surrounding him!
Finished......
The man in the long shirt said in his heart, and touched his waist silently, but said with a smile on his face: "Ladies and gentlemen, what are you doing here?" Is there anything that has offended a few of the little ones? ”
"Zhu Lin, commissioner of the Beiping Military Intelligence Department, 36 years old, from Hubei, male, has not yet married a wife......"
A voice with a strange tone read it directly, and every time he pronounced a sentence, the face of the man in the long shirt became whiter, and finally the whole person suddenly relaxed, and said with a smile: "It seems that you don't need to pretend, you have already figured out everything about me......"
"I'm the head of the Beiping Branch of the Intelligence Department of the Five Provinces, a subordinate of Major General Yoshikawa, Yamada!"
The short man with a strange tone walked out, looked at the man in the long shirt and said: "Mr. Zhu, our intelligence department of the five provinces has been observing you for a long time, Major General Yoshikawa admires you very much, and wants to ask you to go back and talk to us - don't worry, as long as you are willing to cooperate, Your Excellency Yoshikawa will definitely not be able to treat you badly......"
"Talk?"
Zhu Lin, a man in a long shirt, smiled: "What are you talking about?" Let me hand over to you all the military commanders and contact locations in the area of Beiping and Tianjin, and then let you catch them all, and it is best for me to become a double agent, eating inside and out? ”
"Mr. Zhu, you are really a smart person!"
Yamada said: "I like to talk to smart people like you - the location of my Beiping branch is not far from here, please!" ”
"What if I say no?" Zhu Lin snorted coldly.
"Mr. Zhu, I admire patriotic people, because I am too!"
Yamada sneered: "But you are a smart person, you should know the truth that good birds choose trees and perch, your government has been rotten to the bones, there is no cure, as long as you cooperate with us, you are a friend, one day in the future, the great cause of the East Asian Co-prosperity Circle of our empire will be completed, and you are one of the heroes, but if you don't cooperate, you are the enemy!" ”
Speaking of this, he paused for a moment before continuing: "You have an old saying, those who follow me prosper, and those who go against me perish, you are a smart person, you should know how to choose, right?" ”
"I've been smart since I was a kid, and people who have seen me have praised me for being smart - but this time, I chose to be a fool......"
Zhu Lin said, his voice instantly became sharp, his hands were pulled out of his arms, and the two box cannons were aimed at the surrounding spies, and in the next second, they could spray scorching bullets!
Woohoo!
Countless gunshots exploded in an instant, and Zhu Lin was instantly beaten into a sieve, blood gushing and gushing, and he collapsed like mud.
"Look for death!"
Yamada snorted coldly and waved his hand: "Search and see, see if there are any other clues!" ”
Several men stepped forward and found a piece of paper from Zhu Lin's body, on which were written a few small words: "The movement of the Japanese army may be related to the battle of Zhongmu!" ”
