Chapter 669: Taking photos openly, this is evidence of the Japanese army's brutality
Alice was right, the army in the mountain city was indeed very poor.
It's not just about any particular army; all of them are poor in general.
The 74th Army was the elite of the Central Army, but not every soldier had leather shoes. Only the independent regiment had leather shoes. And these leather shoes were all looted from the Japanese army.
Looking down at the candy in her hand, Asaka Hiderei slowly raised her head and looked at Alice, who was staring wide-eyed, waiting for an answer. Her answer was somewhat irrelevant. "You probably don't know that our independent regiment has a nickname in the Japanese army."
nickname?
Alice shook her head. She really hadn't heard of the issue with the Independent Regiment's nickname.
Just as he was about to ask, the general's voice rang out.
"Each battalion will be paid one hundred dollars, and I will personally subsidize each battalion with twenty dollars. You, Xiaoye, have the most money, so you will subsidize ten dollars."
"Why?" Xiao Ye was furious and came to Zhou Weiguo with his eyes wide open.
Asking him to pay is like asking for his life.
"The 10% of your income was earned by the soldiers at the cost of their lives." Zhou Weiguo lit a cigarette, not wanting to indulge him. "Give it to me or not?"
Xiao Ye's face twitched, he pointed at Zhou Weiguo and walked away cursing.
"Hmph...fight me." Zhou Weiguo ignored him and returned to his seat. "The task force has been wiped out. Now, there's no chance of peace talks between Fog City and Tokyo."
Tian Jing, who was standing nearby, glanced at Zhou Weiguo and silently took out another telegram from his pocket, opened it, and said, "Even if this didn't happen, there's still no possibility of them negotiating peace."
Zhou Weiguo, who was smoking with his head down, felt something was wrong and asked, "What's wrong?"
Changsha, 11th Army Headquarters, just after lunch, Okamura Yasuji and Yamadajima were walking together in the courtyard.
"Yamada-kun, have you noticed that we've become much lazier since we started cooperating with Yamashiro?"
Yamadajima, cigarette in hand, chuckled, "It's more than just laziness."
He pointed to his head and said, "Ever since I started working with them, I haven't been able to use my brain much. I feel like there's no hope for the future."
Since the occupation of Changsha, the division between us and the Ninth War Zone has been very clear. Where to fight, where to stabilize, and where to retreat have all been discussed. Everything is done according to the script.
No matter what he wants to do, all he has to do is write the copy and report to his superiors.
"Yes, days like this are good days for other people, but for people like us, they are undoubtedly a torment."
A bunch of people with nothing to do. Nanzō Yunko happened to overhear the conversation as she entered the courtyard.
She felt that these two people were crazy. Before they cooperated with Shancheng, they could have such a leisurely life. The other party's slightest movement was enough for them to think for a long time.
But now, they don’t need to do these things, and they all feel uncomfortable.
Nanzō Yunko glanced down at the message in her hand and then approached the two men. "General, after we captured Kowloon, the navy landed the army to maintain order."
"what……"
Okamura Neiji turned his head and glanced at Nanzō Yunko, then said, "Did I hear correctly? The Navy will invite the Army to maintain law and order."
Yamadajima mused for a moment and nodded. "Yeah, I feel like there's a conspiracy going on here."
Seeing that the two people's spirits were suddenly affected by this matter, she then handed over another telegram: "Something similar to what happened in Nanjing is happening over there."
"Damn, that bastard Gu Zhuang is being used as a gun by the navy." Okamura Neiji instantly understood what the navy's intention was.
Yamadajima hadn't fully reacted yet. Seeing the bewildered look in his eyes, Okamura Neiji took a deep breath and said, "You still don't understand. This is a trap, a huge trap. We know how rich that place is, and the navy knows it even more. How could they possibly give up such a rich place and let our people go up there?"
This is to take the blame.
Taking a deep breath, Okamura Neiji looked towards the south for a long time before saying, "Just wait and see. The reputation of our Imperial Army will be completely destroyed this time."
Click...
With the pressing of the camera shutter, a photo of Japanese army soldiers crazily slaughtering foreigners was quickly saved.
Xiao Ya shook the camera in her hand, turned her head and said to Gao Qiao who was following her, "Let's go somewhere else."
Gao Qiaoyi followed Xiao Ya numbly. Since the army got involved in the robbery yesterday, the foreigners who had already been robbed once suffered again and were skinned again. Moreover, they also attacked the locals.
After they had already walked around in a circle, he saw Xiao Ya wanted to go somewhere else to take pictures, so he approached her cautiously and said, "Madam, we have already taken a lot of pictures, why don't we take more?"
Xiao Ya paused, laughed, and asked, "Why? Are you worried about the negative impact on your empire?"
Takahashi didn't say anything, but his expression conveyed this meaning.
Xiao Ya put the camera into her purse and said, "From the moment you withdrew from the League of Nations, launched an undeclared war against Northern Soviet Union, and then robbed Hai Shengwei, you actually have no influence in the international arena, right?"
That's true, but that's what outsiders say. As long as the empire doesn't admit it, then this matter will be treated as if it never happened.
However, if this photo were to be leaked, the empire would be...
"Everything is based on preconceived notions. The first robbery was committed by the Marines, but the news never leaked. Instead, it was the Army's despicable behavior that leaked out. Your Excellency the General is trying to save the Navy's face. So, if I take this thing back, you will not be held responsible. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Gao Qiaoyi stopped trying to dissuade her. Xiao Ya thought about it and felt that these hundreds of photos were appropriate. She reached out and patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you. We won't take any more photos. Let's go back. It's time for me to say goodbye and go back."
Since the governor sent from above had not yet arrived, Hase Kiyoshi temporarily served as the governor of the Japanese Far East Governor-General's Office.
Hase Kiyoshi had no way to stop what was happening outside. Out of sight, out of mind, he locked himself in the living room and read the newspaper to pass the time.
When he heard the crisp footsteps, he knew who was coming. It was this person he didn't want to see, but he had to see him.
Helplessly looking up, he glanced at Xiao Ya who came in. After sighing, Chang Gu Qing stared at the camera swaying in her hand without moving.
He wanted to take that thing and destroy it completely, because it would be a shame that could never be washed away for the empire.
But there was a voice in his heart telling him.
He can't do this.
