Rat King Zhou jumped out of the hole and looked left and right. He realized that the entire world in his eyes was blurry and nearsighted. He couldn't see it clearly at all. He thought to himself, where the hell is this? Did he dig in the wrong place?
Just as she was feeling suspicious, she heard two adult men talking in Japanese not far away with her sharp hearing.
Rat King Zhou used the memory fragments of Japanese in his mind and immediately understood.
The two of them seemed to be discussing the defeat of the Yamazaki Brigade at Lijiapo.
From the way they addressed each other, one was called General, and the other was called Yamamoto.
When Zhou Lin heard these two names, he was sure that this was the Japanese Taiyuan Command!
He couldn't see anything clearly now, and he was afraid that his transformation time would be up in a few dozen seconds and he would be discovered.
Using the mouse's dexterity, he immediately moved close to the wall and came to a dark corner. He pricked up his ears and eavesdropped on the conversation between the two people outside.
"Yamamoto, have you heard about Yamazaki's death?”
The person who said this was Lieutenant General Shinozuka Yoshio, the commander-in-chief of the First Army of the North China Front Army, one of the five strategic groups of the Japanese Army!
He was wearing a yellow winter uniform of the Japanese army and white gloves. He had a small mustache on his upper lip and was sitting on a chair. Because of Yamazaki's death, he looked a little depressed.
The person standing opposite Shinozuka was Daisuke Yamamoto Ichiki. He had studied in Germany and was good at special operations. Not long ago, he had led his men to defeat the independent regiment stationed in Yang Village.
Shinozuka Yoshio had called him over to discuss the destruction of the Yamazaki Brigade.
Yamamoto Ichiki stood like a pine tree, his eyes burning like torches. When he heard Shinozuka Yoshio's question, he said with great vigor,""Your Excellency, I've heard about Yamazaki's death. I don't think it's strange. Yamazaki committed the common mistake that most soldiers of the Imperium love to commit. They all regard themselves as war gods and don't pay attention to intelligence. How can they not be defeated when they attack the enemy's hinterland with only a few hundred soldiers? In the Chinese military book, Sun Tzu's Art of War, written 2000 years ago, it was written that the art of war was all about deception. When it was empty, it was real, and when it was real, it was empty! War was a constant battle of strategies. It was unrealistic to imagine that a decisive battle could completely destroy the Eighth Route Army's main force once and for all. This fantasy was the root cause of Yamazaki's death.”
Shinozuka Yoshio had once been a teacher at the Imperial Military Academy. Yamazaki Haruhira had a unique view of mountain warfare and was his favorite student. He was very dissatisfied with Yamamoto Ichiki's conclusion of " unrealistic fantasy " and spoke in a stern tone.
"Yamamoto, I don't agree with your words! "Forty years ago, it was His Highness Yamamoto who led a few hundred Imperial soldiers to break through the Qing Dynasty's Yalu River defense line. Ten years ago, Senior Itagaki Seishiro also led a few hundred Imperial soldiers to defeat the northeast garrison of Fengtian. In one fell swoop, Manchuria was established. Even you, Yamamoto, led a few hundred Imperial soldiers to fight. Any 100-man team of our Imperial Army is enough to fight the Chinese army." This is not arrogance, but the mission that generations of soldiers of the Great Japan Empire have given us, the mission of the common prosperity of Great East Asia!”
When Yamamoto Ichiki was in school, he was a talented student of literature and history. He was especially interested in the military. Regarding Shinozuka Yoshio's words, he corrected him,"" General, His Highness Amitoto of Shan County, after breaking through the Yalu River defense line, he still insisted on attacking Shanhaiguan Pass. He was beaten up by the Qing Dynasty Imperial Army and almost spat out all the fruits of victory. In the end, Emperor Meiji did not pursue his responsibility on account of the fact that both of them were royalty. Senior Itagaki Seishiro was only able to conquer Fengtian with a few hundred people when the Northeast Army pursued non-resistance and did not even fire a shot. Times are different now, we can't blindly…"
General Shinozuka Yoshio had been in a high position for many years and was not interested in listening to Yamamoto Ichiki's reasoning. He waved his hand and interrupted Yamamoto Ichiki.
"Mr. Yamamoto, I don't think there's any difference. In my eyes, the 8th Route Army is worse than the Qing Army. They're just an army made up of farmers, dressed in rags like beggars, and don't even have a cotton military uniform. The reconnaissance plane I sent told me that they actually took away the military uniforms of our Empire's soldiers.”
When Rat King Zhou heard this, he almost couldn't help but rush out from under the cabinet and bite off Shinozuka Yoshio's head!
If it weren't for you Japanese, who came to China to burn, kill, and plunder, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army would have done their jobs properly. Would they have stripped you naked?
Who was it that forced the commoners to join the army? Isn't it you Japanese?
You still say that you're inferior to the Qing army? Do I need you to care? You don't have to pretend. I'll send a rat over to bite you to death later!
Shinozuka Yoshio remembered the photos taken by the reconnaissance plane. He saw the naked bodies of the Japanese soldiers lying on the ground and was furious. He continued,"Most of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army still use the firearms of the Hanyang Munitions Factory that should have been eliminated long ago. However, even if they used antique weapons from the last century, they were still extremely short of ammunition. Each soldier could not even fit five bullets. How could such farmer armed forces have the courage to fight against the imperial army? What kind of miracle were they expecting? I think it's necessary to carry out a massacre in Shanxi to intimidate these farmers.”
Ding ding ding--
As the two of them were talking, the phone rang. Shinozuka Yoshio picked up the phone and put away his arrogant attitude. He kept bowing to the other side of the phone and said,"Wow, I'm going to Nishikawa University." I know.)
Shinozuka Yoshio answered the phone. Zhou Lin, who was in the corner, had transformed back into a human from a mouse.
When his vision returned to human level, Zhou Lin could see clearly with the help of the light. He was originally in the command center of the Japanese Taiyuan Command, under a cabinet in the corner of the room.
Yamamoto and Shinozuka were not far away from the cabinet. Fortunately, neither of them noticed this place and were still on the phone.
Taking advantage of this critical moment, Zhou Lin quickly hid in the cabinet and continued to eavesdrop on their conversation.
