Before traveling through time, Zhou Zhihan knew the fate of Xie Jinyuan and others after the battle to defend Sihang Warehouse. He did not want this national hero to be assassinated by Japanese and puppet agents two years later, so he agreed to the Japanese conditions at the negotiation table. At the same time, he strived to allow all soldiers who retreated from Sihang Warehouse to carry guns and march with their heads held high. Evacuate the concession and head to western Shanghai to join the 88th Division.
Xie Jinyuan must be allowed to lead his brothers back to the 88th Division with guns.
The system once said that he, Zhou Zhihan, could not change the current trend of the entire Anti-Japanese War, but he could change the fate of a few people in the Anti-Japanese War, and after the fate of these people was changed, it would not affect the general trend of the entire Anti-Japanese War.
This was the first time he had changed his fate against the will of heaven since he time traveled. Perhaps it was the feats of Xie Jinyuan and the more than 400 brothers in Sixing Warehouse that moved the system, allowing Xie Jinyuan to lead his brothers back to the 88th Division.
At 5:30 in the afternoon, it was getting dark very quickly, and Zhou Zhihan received an invitation letter from General Henry Irving and Lieutenant General Charles.
Seeing Zhou Zhihan's hesitation, the sender quickly said: "Instructor Zhou, the two generals can use their reputation to guarantee the safety of everyone in the Sixing Warehouse. Now is the period of the peace armistice agreement. If the Japanese army dares to attack the Sixing Warehouse, it will be a blow to the two generals. An act of declaring war by a neutral country."
Zhou Zhihan nodded and asked the messenger to leave first. He went to the warehouse to explain before going to the meeting.
Twenty minutes later, Zhou Zhihan arrived at the concession on the south bank of the Suzhou River under the protection of soldiers from both countries. He looked back at the Sihang Warehouse. It was no different from the previous few days. It was still the same darkness. The windows were shadowy, as if thousands of troops were hidden. Thousands of horses.
The concession across the Suzhou River is very prosperous with red and green flowers and flashing neon lights.
Many ordinary people, seeing the chief instructor of the Chinese Air Force coming from the Tibet Road Bridge, bent down to salute him and waved hello.
Zhou Zhihan military ceremony.
The common people watched the chief instructor of the Air Force enter the M country's concession and stood at the door, refusing to leave.
Entering the M country concession, a banquet has been set up in a large villa, beautiful Western dance music is playing, and many handsome men and beautiful women are dancing on the dance floor.
Seeing the Chief Instructor of the Chinese Air Force walking in, all the music immediately stopped, and the people who were sitting stood up. The handsome men and beautiful women on the dance floor rushed to greet him, vying to get a close look at the Chief Instructor of the Chinese Air Force. He was indeed very majestic. .
This is a spontaneous welcome, not a deliberate arrangement.
In the past three months, the chief instructor of the Chinese Air Force has stolen the limelight and caused the Japanese pilots to suffer a lot.
There were many ladies and young ladies from Western countries present at the meeting, and many enthusiastic and beautiful girls smiled at Zhou Zhihan.
There is no beauty who does not love heroes.
The name of the chief instructor of the Chinese Air Force is now well known to everyone.
General Henry Irving and Lieutenant General Charles came out, smiled and exchanged greetings.
In the entire hall, there was only one person sitting still. Matsui Iwane, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army in China, was actually at the meeting. Behind him, stood four sturdy junior officers.
At this moment, Zhou Zhihan felt as if he was attending the meeting alone. Western countries did not inform him in advance that Matsui Iwane was also present. But judging from the expressions of Matsui Iwane and several assistant officers, they knew they were coming.
On the surface, ym is said to be a neutral country, but in fact, they actually wear the same pants as Japan.
There is no other way. If you fall behind, you will be beaten. Who made China so backward and so poor?
Zhou Zhihan's eyes contracted, his fists clenched, and he relaxed instantly. He wanted to kill Matsui Iwane, the executioner who was about to cause the murder of Jingjing (1).
Matsui Iwane smiled and looked at Zhou Zhihan and nodded without getting up, looking confident and confident.
Zhou Zhihan also smiled and nodded, and said slowly in fluent English: "If you were in another place, I would kill you, Mr. Matsui Iwane."
The room is as quiet as a pindrop.
Matsui Iwane's eyes did not change, but the four assistant officers standing behind him took a step forward almost at the same time.
"Oh!" Matsui Iwane's momentum did not drop, and he stretched out his hand to stop the four assistant officers who wanted to block him, "Do you have that confidence?"
Zhou Zhihan smiled: "You can try it!"
Matsui Iwane's eyes narrowed: "Young man, don't be so arrogant. I am a ninth-level karate master."
Zhou Zhihan continued to smile: "I can kill the God of War and the God of War, let alone a small ninth-dan karate guy."
"Arrogant!"
A major behind Matsui Iwane was furious and walked towards Zhou Zhihan.
"Everyone, we will only drink and chat tonight, not the military!" Lieutenant General Charles came out quickly to smooth things over. He did not expect that Zhou Zhihan came up and gave Matsui Iwane a slap in the face.
Matsui Iwane waved his hand slightly, and the major retreated.
At the beginning of the dinner party, Zhou Zhihan did not drink any alcohol and only drank boiled water.
During the banquet, Zhou Zhihan excused himself from going to the bathroom. When he passed the window, he stood up and looked at the Sihang Warehouse. His eyesight was excellent and he saw no suspicious figures in the darkness around the Sihang Warehouse. The two countries of YM indeed kept their promises and went to the Sihang Warehouse. A team of soldiers was deployed between the Japanese army and the Japanese army.
Zhou Zhihan knew that this was not actually because of the good intentions of the two countries, but because they were worried that the exchange of fire between the Chinese and Japanese militaries would damage the security of the concessions between the two countries.
Prior to this, relevant parties in China had been calling on Western countries to impose sanctions on the Japanese army for openly provoking the war, but they received various excuses.
In a word, as long as the war does not affect the interests of Western countries in China, few countries will care about China, which is in dire straits. All they want is interests.
"Instructor Zhou!"
Lieutenant General Charles stood by the window holding a wine glass, and looked at the Sixing Warehouse with Zhou Zhihan.
Behind the two men were two lieutenants of Lieutenant General Charles, who could not be approached by others.
Zhou Zhihan smiled and nodded: "Mr. Lieutenant General!"
Lieutenant General Charles looked at Zhou Zhihan: "Instructor Zhou! Tomorrow, the fate of the remaining four hundred people in the Sixing Warehouse will be in your hands. How sure are you of breaking through the Japanese anti-aircraft fire and the interception of the aircraft fleet?"
"Do I have a choice? Mr. Lieutenant General!"
Zhou Zhihan did not directly answer Lieutenant General Charles' question.
"have!"
Lieutenant General Charles smiled.
"oh!"
Zhou Zhihan showed a surprised expression.
"You Chinese have a saying: Get straight to the point!" Lieutenant General Charles said, handed the wine glass to the adjutant, then took out a cigar, lit it, and then said, "Your flying skills shocked the royal family and the Prime Minister of the empire. They think The empire needs talents like you to train a large number of outstanding pilots for the empire. If you are willing to join the Great Y Empire, the empire will grant you the rank of major general and let you serve as the chief instructor of the empire's air force. In this way, General Matsui Iwane will I have no right to force you to do tasks that no one can complete. And I can also ensure the safety of the remaining 400 people of your army in the Sihang Warehouse and send them safely back to your 88th Division. How about it, sir? Mr. Instructor?"
The conditions offered by Lieutenant General Charles are very tempting.
