****************************************************

6.118 Osaka vendors who are actively seeking to fight

Before seeing the infamous 4th Division with his own eyes, Matsui Ishine still had some hope in the face of this support army, and he believed that under the repeated rectification of the Military Department and the Ministry of the Army, coupled with the training in the northeast, even if the 4th Division could not become a "brave army" like the 6th Division, its combat effectiveness would at least be stronger than that of the Central Army of the Shina people, right?

Now Matsui understands that he was completely wrong! The base camp threw the 4th Division to East China like garbage and to the Central China Front!

What made Matsui Shigen even more angry was that the commander of the 4th Division, a group of wasted divisions, was actually surnamed Matsui like him! This coincidence is now an insult to Matsui Ishone! He didn't want to have anything to do with the guy in front of him who nodded and bowed!

Kameda Nakasa lit a Russian cigarette on the transport ship, although the 4th Division had not been in the northeast for a long time, but the activities of these Osaka traders were indeed amazing, Kameda Nakasa had already started a business with the Russians on the other side of the border a few months ago, Manchurian furs and liquor were all things that the Russians dreamed of, and the vodka and caviar exchanged from the Russians were also very expensive to ship to Japan, so they relied on the military ships to resell supplies, Kameda Nakasa has now become a rich oily Japanese officer, damn base camp! If they did not suddenly transfer the 4th Division from Manchuria to East China, Kameda believed that he would become the new chaebol in less than two years, and Kameda Nakasa was not interested in military or politics, and in his eyes he only had white silver dollars and heavy gold bars. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The visitors on the dock seem to be not very friendly, Shanghai has now become the territory of the Japanese, Kameda Nakasa does not believe that there will be Chinese who dare to come and make trouble with the Imperial Japanese Army, although the Osaka Division is not strong in combat, but there are other Japanese garrisons in Shanghai! It is very safe for Japanese people here.

It is precisely out of extreme confidence in Shanghai's security that Kameda Nakasa will generously sell a batch of arms to the Chinese here, and the large box that was hoisted down the side of the ship just now is the tail number of this batch of munitions, which contains 50 Type 38 rifles and 2 crooked light machine guns and a certain number of bullets, the 4th Division has always been among the best in the Japanese army in terms of gun and ammunition loss in military training, and the officers and men of the 4th Division themselves know best that unless they are coping with inspections, they will not be able to put a few shots a year, in the eyes of these Osaka traders, It's a waste of luxury to spend bullets that can be exchanged for money on the training ground...... These nominally "consumed" weapons and ammunition are one of the important sources of "black income" for the officers and men of the 4th Division......

At the end of 37, when the Chinese army was at its thinnest, it suffered a few months of defeat, and the soldiers who lost it were able to barely make up enough by relying on the country's abundant population resources, but there was no way to produce weapons and ammunition overnight, and the ammunition consumed on the battlefields of North China, Songhu, and Nanjing and the arms warehouses that fell into the hands of the Japanese army gradually hollowed out the warehouses at all levels of the Wuhan government, and now there are several batches of people who want to get arms in Shanghai, whether it is British goods, French goods, German goods or Japanese goods, As long as you can kill people, you can find a home, and the price is ridiculously high, especially for artillery and cannonballs, and the price can make Kameda Nakasa laugh out loud in his dreams!

The profit from selling a Type 92 infantry gun in Shanghai is three times the total price of two Type 92 infantry guns sold by Kameda Nakasa to the Anti-Japanese Federation in the northeast! Kameda Nakasa really regretted that he gave the baby at hand in the Northeast too early!

In order to make up for his regrets, Kameda Nakasa chose to resell the military supplies of the 4th Division more frantically, the Chinese in Shanghai are really very good customers, as long as Kameda Nakasa can get out of the warehouse of the 4th Corps, they are all willing to buy at a high price, from light and heavy machine guns, grenadiers, to glue, Western medicine and military shoes, Kameda Nakasa is now counting money every day to hand cramps!

The Chinese buyers encountered by the other Japanese officers of the 4th Division were basically the same as those of Kameda Nakasa, and now these people were eager to stop at sea and sell the entire fleet to the Chinese, and the business was so prosperous that the 4th Division was naturally reluctant to go ashore.

Now, there's trouble......

The people on the dock should belong to the Central China Front Army or the Shanghai Dispatch Army, and the matter of the 4th Division's big gold and silver fishing in Wusong should have been spread to the senior commander by the red-eyed people, and tonight, the person who asked the teacher for the crime has arrived!

The head of the "brother-in-law" Matsui Destiny Division must be saved! If a new person is replaced at this time to be the division commander of the 4th Division, but the business can't be done, and he has to serve the guy who has three fires in the new officer, who knows whose sister and sister that person will take a fancy to? At that time, Kameda Nakasa will have to lose ground in the 4th Division!

This is something that Kameda Nakasa will never be able to accept!

"Mitsui! Nagao! Hold the trade on hold! Your Excellency, the commander of the division, seems to be in trouble! We've got to check it out! ”

Mitsui and Nagao are Kameda Nakasa's henchmen, Mitsui plays the role of the tent, and Nagao is Kameda Nakasa's thug, doing business will inevitably cause some disputes, although Nagao is simple-minded, but very capable of fighting, Kameda Nakasa robbed other people's business when he didn't let Nagao rush to the front, Nagao, who has not yet injured a Chinese, has hurt several Japanese under his hand, this person is also an alternative in the Japanese army.

Hearing Kameda Nakasa's call, Mitsui and Nagao both put down what they were doing and came over with their men. Since following Kameda Nakasa, Mitsui and Nagao's military ranks have become captains, you must know that a few months ago they were all small lieutenants, and they were promoted two levels in a short period of time, Mitsui and Nagao knew that their rapid promotion was all Kameda Nakasa's help, and Kameda Nakasa's strength came from the head of Matsui Nakasa, without Matsui Nakasa, there would be no Kameda Nakasa, and without Kameda Nakasa, there would be no Mitsui and Nagao today, the two of them know very well that keeping the head of Matsui and Kameda Nakasa is equivalent to saving themselves, Now when I hear Kameda Nakasa say that the head of Matsui's life division is in trouble, Mitsui and Nagao's eyes immediately turn red!

Kameda Nakasa took his men and horses from the rope net on the side of the boat to the dinghy quickly, and then rowed to the dock at full speed, in order not to alarm the people on the pier, Kameda Nakasa specially chose a relatively hidden channel, several small boats shuttled between the huge transport ships, the hull and shadow of the transport ship concealed Kameda Nakasa and his men very well, this trick was learned by Kameda Nakasa and those Chinese who came to do business, Chinese merchants who bought some of the more sensitive materials from him often chose this route when they left the Japanese convoy.

"Your Excellency, Commander! I ......"

Matsui's resignation made Matsui Ishine more and more angry, smuggling was not the first time that such a thing happened in the Japanese army, Matsui Ishine gave Tada Jun a batch of antiques and jewelry when Tada Jun came to Shanghai, of course, these things could not be Matsui Ishine's own pocket, on the Chinese battlefield, the Japanese army occupied more and more wealth, to make these things can become the wealth of the Japanese Empire, it is simply impossible.

It can be said that the Japanese army in the Chinese battlefield is saving their belongings from top to bottom, but the 4th Division is still the first unit to cover up and forget their military identity!

"I don't have time to spend here! Just as we speak! Huang Haoran is constantly killing our soldiers in Nanjing! Commander of the Matsui Division! When can your troops start landing? I think your people should have overcome the problem of seasickness! ”

Matsui Ishone's words made Matsui Mei's head lower and lower, and Kameda Nakasa, who was on the water, was very surprised by the performance of his "brother-in-law" Matsui Meishi.

The quick-reacting Captain Mitsui also saw that something was wrong on the dock, and he leaned over to Kameda Nakasa and whispered, "Kameda-kun! The wharves were all carrying command knives, and the adjutant and guards of His Excellency the Division Commander were standing far away, and they must have been very senior officers. ”

Kameda Nakasa also muttered in his heart, his "brother-in-law" Matsui Ming is also a division commander, although the 4th Division is not good at foreign wars, but it never falls behind in front of friendly forces, if the person who comes is the same division commander as Matsui Ming, then his "brother-in-law" will definitely not behave so humblely, there are not many Japanese officers who are higher than Matsui Ming on the East China battlefield, and the commander of the Shanghai Dispatch Army, Lieutenant General Hatohiko Wang, and the chief of staff, Major General Mamoru Iinuma, are not in Shanghai now, Lieutenant General Yanagawa Heisuke, commander of the 10th Army, and his chief of staff, Major General Tado Moritake, could not restrain the 4th Division, which had been assigned to the Shanghai Dispatch Army from its base camp, so the people on the dock could only be General Matsui Ishine, commander of the Central China Front, or his chief of staff, Major General Tsukada Takeshi.

These two people are characters that the 4th Division can't afford to provoke no matter what!

What to do? Kameda Nakasa's mind began to spin rapidly......

"Login? I'll have to discuss! Yes...... No... Will start as soon as possible, no .... Let's get started! ”

Matsui's answer changed several times in a second, and he was also very conflicted in his heart, the problems of the 4th Division were far more than war weariness and making money, and the respect of the officers and soldiers of Osaka for him as the commander of the division was also limited, and sometimes the orders issued by Matsui were selectively carried out by the officers and soldiers of the 4th Division, and these actions of the Osaka soldiers were caused by the unique culture of Osaka.

Throughout ancient Japan, the basic social structure was that the peasants were attached to the land-owning princes (i.e., daimyos), who were subordinate to the emperor. This long-term unchanged social structure led to the formation of a strict relationship between superiors and subordinates and a culture full of obedience in Japan, which was also the psychological basis for the Japanese army's fanatical "loyalty to the emperor" in World War II.

However, Osaka is a bit different, it is a famous commercial city, and the residents are mostly business-related, and there is very little respect for the daimyo. On the other hand, around the issue of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, the people of Osaka have been constantly fighting wits and courage with the daimyo for hundreds of years, bargaining, and the so-called loyalty, let alone the so-called loyalty. As a result, the emperor's status in the hearts of the people of Osaka is not quite the same as in other places. Although the soldiers who were born in Osaka were also bewitched by militarism, the people of Osaka were not in a hurry to "die for the emperor and die for the Japanese Empire". Officers and men from Osaka are also accustomed to "bargaining" and "calculating" orders from their superiors, and will not carry them out to the end with their eyes closed as other units do. Even within the 4th Division, the so-called "three don'ts" principle of "don't pay for useless sacrifices," "don't participate in unreasonable battles," and "don't chase after the enemy who is desperate."

It's really a bit difficult for Matsui Shigen to ask the head of the Matsui division to give him an accurate answer now, you must know that the head of the Matsui division has to go back and discuss with his subordinates! These Osaka soldiers are not the main ones who make a splash......

Regarding Matsui's reply, Matsui Shigen couldn't accept it at all! He couldn't believe that a division commander of the Japanese army would dare to talk to him, the commander of the Central China Front, like this!

Let's discuss? Who to consult? Aren't you, Matsui, the division commander of the 4th Division? Is this perfunctory?

Matsui Ishone's hand held the hilt of his battle knife, and seeing the cold light in Matsui Ishone's eyes, Matsui Ming actually burst out with great power after being terrified to the extreme!

"Your Excellency, Commander! I'm also a general of the Great Japanese Empire! You don't have the right to execute me! ”

"Soldiers!? I think you're more of a businessman, and you still have the smell of China and Russians! ”

Although Matsui Ishine directly dismissed Matsui's words, his hand holding the handle of the knife was released, Matsui was right, the life of a Japanese general was not something he Matsui Ishine could decide, even if Matsui was damned, he had to let the military department deal with him.

And if the commander of the 4th Division is killed before the war, then the Central China Front of this unit will not want to continue to use it, and the 4th Division is better than a scarecrow no matter how bad it is, right? With these tens of thousands of Osaka "merchants," all the combat units of the Central China Front scattered in Shanghai and Suzhou could be sent to Nanjing, and at least for the time being, the 4th Division still has value for the Central China Front.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander! I have an urgent military report! ”

Matsui, who felt that he had finally escaped, had not had time to wipe the sweat off his face, a voice he was very familiar with suddenly sounded, Matsui Ishine frowned very unhappily, he turned around and saw Kameda Nakasa, who was making a lot of noise outside the guard guard ring of the Central China Front Headquarters, because it was still night, Matsui Ishine couldn't see Kameda Nakasa's appearance clearly in the telescope just now, so Matsui Ishine didn't know that the guy who came to make trouble now was the scum who made him hate just now!

The guards of the Central China Front Headquarters naturally did not take Kameda's little Nakasa in their eyes, and the bayonet brushed against Kameda Nakasa's chest, as long as Kameda Nakasa dared to move forward, it would be no wonder to them!

Kameda Nakasa wisely chose to retreat, and the guards of the Central China Front Headquarters did not take more drastic measures, which gave Kameda Nakasa an opportunity to continue chanting:

"Your Excellency, Division Commander! I found out that there are naval crews in contact with the Chinese, this is smuggling! It must be punished severely! We've caught some! Please instruct the division commander! ”

When Kameda Nakasa shouted, he deliberately bit the word navy very hard! He was reminding his "brother-in-law" Matsui to detain all the charges to the navy, no matter how powerful Matsui Shigen was, he couldn't directly do it to the people of the navy, the army and the navy have always been at odds, this point was clearly revealed from the dispute between the land and the sea, after pushing the charge of smuggling on the navy, even if Matsui Shigen wanted to confront the navy, several fleet commanders in Shanghai probably would not agree, as long as such a case was transferred to the base camp and then involved in the grievances of the army and the navy, it would become a bad debt. In the end, no one can figure it out, Mitsui and Nagao have already returned to the transport ship to do business, they will detain a few naval personnel, of course, this is just for show, it won't be long before the commander of the transport fleet will come forward to take his people away, so that Matsui Ishine has no reason to rectify the 4th Division!

"Ah..... Mixi! Mixi! Kameda Nakasa! You've finally caught the damn navy! It was these insatiable sea rats who trapped our heroic 4th Division in the sea of Wusong! The Navy deliberately made our officers and men seasick! This will give you more time for smuggling! Commander Matsui! You should file a charge with the Navy Ministry! The 4th Division needs a fair one! ”

Commander Matsui realized that Kameda Nakasa had created an excellent reason to exonerate him, and the idea of splashing dirty water on the head of the navy was really wonderful! The 4th Division doesn't even have to worry that the Navy will accuse them in turn, they can load so many goods from the Northeast to Shanghai, and the naval officers in the transport fleet will naturally receive a lot of benefits from the 4th Division, and if they are gagged by such a piece of fat, the Navy will not be willing to expose their own ugliness, and in the end, this matter must be in the mutual abuse and accusations between the Navy and the Army!

Amazing! Kameda Nakasa! Thanks to you! The head of Matsui's life division secretly made a decision in his heart, he must find an opportunity to "straighten" Kameda Nakasa's sister in the future, and make Kameda Nakasa his rightful brother-in-law!

I knew in my heart that the head of the Matsui Division was talking nonsense, and Matsui Ishine could only pretend not to notice it, since this Nakasa who suddenly jumped out could say such an absurd reason in front of him, then the 4th Division must be prepared, since the original very clear facts have been stirred into a pool of muddy water, Matsui Ishine doesn't want to go again, what will be the result of a lawsuit with the Navy Matsui Ishine knows very well in his heart, Matsui's subordinates made up a good story for him!

"Let's put the affairs of the Navy aside for now! Matsui-kun! Now that the strength of the front line is very tight, I hope that your 4th Division can enter Shanghai as soon as possible, so that the garrison in Shanghai will be able to prerequisite, and there will be no more problems, right? Commander of Matsui Meiji ......"

The commander of Matsui's division heard the sound of Matsui Shigen's words, and the bad excuse he came up with tonight has been seen through by Matsui Shigen, if the 4th Division enters Shanghai, isn't it to stay under Matsui Shigen's nose all day long?

With these vendors of the Osaka Division, what good things can they do in Shanghai? It's better to take the initiative to ask for war now, one can calm Matsui Shigen's anger, and you can also stay away from the surveillance of the commander of the Central China Front, and live a few happy days, thinking of this, the head of Matsui's division stepped forward and bowed to Matsui Shigen, and then said:

"Your Excellency, I know that there are many rumors about the 4th Division in the Army, please don't believe these words! In order to shatter these rumors, please send the 4th Division into the line of fire, Your Excellency! Long live the Great Japanese Empire! Long live the Emperor!
