Shanghai, the headquarters command room of the Izumo armored cruiser, flagship of the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet.
Five minutes ago, Hasegawa Kiyoshi had received a telegram from the Special Marines. To be honest, he couldn't understand the meaning of this telegram.
Because this telegram was only half sent, I don’t know if it was because of the communications corps, the radio, or the headquarters of the Special Marines was intercepted.
The last result was obviously something Hasegawa did not want to see. As far as he knew, Suzuki Juichiro was a confidant of the Navy Minister, Lieutenant General Yamamoto Isoroku.
Who is Isoroku Yamamoto? He is clearly the future number one officer of the Navy, not to mention that he is currently the number two officer of the United Fleet.
Upon receiving this telegram, Hasegawa Kiyoshi was already prepared for the worst: if the entire Special Marine Corps was annihilated, he would have to commit suicide to thank the Emperor.
Thinking of this, Hasegawa Kiyoshi's long face like a shoehorn slumped, and he was obviously in a very bad mood.
Just when Hasegawa Kiyoshi was hesitant, the arrival of a telegram made him relieved——
I saw the telegraph soldier in the command room stood up and walked towards Hasegawa Kiyoshi with a translated message in his hand.
"Your Excellency, Commander, Navy Minister Lieutenant General Yamamoto Isoroku has an urgent message!" The telegraph soldier walked up to Hasegawa Kiyoshi and stood at attention, saluting.
Hearing this report, Hasegawa Kiyoshi's originally unhappy heart was cast by a thick layer of clouds: in his opinion, General Yamamoto's urgent message at this time, apart from accountability, was probably nothing more than accountability. It's possible.
God will kill me! Hasegawa Kiyoshi sighed in his heart.
Sigh, sigh, even if you die, you must leave with glory!
After thinking about it, Hasegawa Kiyoshi, who was mentally prepared, took a deep breath and said, "Please read!"
"Hai! General Yamamoto sent a message: 'The Imperial Special Marine Corps stationed in Shanghai is now in a bitter battle. Please send troops to support immediately!'" the telegraph soldier said seriously.
Send troops to support immediately? ! Could it be that...the Shanghai Special Marine Corps is okay? ! Just in a hurry? !
Countless questions ran through Kiyoshi Hasegawa's mind: Logically speaking, if the Shanghai Special Marine Corps was really in a hurry, the telegram should have been sent to the Fleet Headquarters and Vice Admiral Yamamoto at the same time. It was absolutely impossible to send the telegram first to Lieutenant General Yamamoto generated electricity.
Recall that before Juichiro Suzuki took office as the commander of the Shanghai Special Marine Corps, Lieutenant General Yamamoto Isoroku had talked to him, hinting that he must take care of Juichiro Suzuki.
Thinking of this, Hasegawa Kiyoshi somewhat understood the cause and effect of this matter: the Shanghai Special Marine Corps Headquarters had probably been taken away, Commander Suzuki Juichiro and Deputy Commander Ono Takeo were probably "broken", and he His immediate superior, Lieutenant General Yamamoto Isoroku, probably wanted to avenge Suzuki Juichiro!
Although he had figured this out, did Kiyoshi Hasegawa really want to expose Lieutenant General Yamamoto Isoroku's intentions? No, not only will he not expose it, but he will also keep it together!
As a naval soldier with a politician's nature, Hasegawa Kiyoshi is as clear as a mirror to his own situation - if Lieutenant General Yamamoto's intentions are exposed, Lieutenant General Yamamoto may only be criticized, but he is Commit seppuku!
He, Hasegawa, could tell which one was light and which was heavy!
If you follow Lieutenant General Yamamoto's order, not only will you not have to commit suicide, but there is also a good chance that nothing will happen - you must know that Lieutenant General Yamamoto is responsible for this matter, and the Special Marines can be wiped out by then. The reason why this label is placed on the Army is because of insufficient reinforcements!
After figuring out the link, Kiyoshi Hasegawa said to the telegraph soldier next to him: "Immediately send a message to General Matsui Iwane in my name, saying that the Shanghai Special Marine Corps has fallen into crisis, and please the general to send reinforcements as soon as possible!"
"Hai!" the telegraph soldier responded.
After the telegraph soldiers left, a major next to Hasegawa Kiyoshi asked: "Your Excellency, Commander, but didn't Commander Suzuki just send a telegram..."
Before the major could finish his words, he received an angry slap from Hasegawa Kiyoshi on his face.
"Snapped!"
The sound of the slap was clear and audible.
"Baga! Are you the commander or am I the commander!? Remember, we only received a call for help from Juichiro Suzuki! Do you understand?!" Kiyoshi Hasegawa yelled.
"Hai!" The major lowered his head and gently rubbed the burning left side of his face.
…
The camera returned to Zhang Tianhai.
At this time, Zhang Tianhai was squatting in Suzuki Juichiro's office, and others were busy searching for the remaining unburned documents of the Japanese army.
Suzuki Juichiro's office is not small, about 40 square meters. There is a rising sun flag hanging on the wall, with the words "Martial arts will last forever" written on the left and right sides.
Looking at the flag hanging above, a familiar face suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Tianhai's eyes. It was Company Commander Li Haocheng who had led them to fight side by side two days ago.
"Company commander, as well as all the brothers who have sacrificed their lives, now I, Zhang Yulin, have avenged you. I will use this flag from the Japanese headquarters to commemorate you and the head of the colonel." Zhang Tianhai murmured to himself. He said, unknowingly, his eyes turned red.
A few hundred meters away, the 108th Brigade was in front of the enemy headquarters.
A Chinese soldier who ran out from the enemy's special marines ran to the headquarters and gasped: "Sir, I am a soldier from the 1st Battalion of the 216th Regiment. Our Battalion Commander Zhang sent us to report. situation."
"Let him in!" The one who spoke was Peng Jiguang, who watched the soldier running over.
After the soldier came up, he stood at attention and saluted Peng Jiguang: "Report to the brigade, our battalion has captured the enemy Marine Corps headquarters. The battalion commander asked me to come over and report this matter to the commander!"
After hearing the news, everyone in the former enemy headquarters looked at each other, and they could all see the joy in each other's eyes.
"Immediately send a telegram to the division commander saying that we have successfully captured the enemy's special marine headquarters on 108th!" Peng Jiguang said to a correspondent behind him.
"Yes." The correspondent responded and sent the telegram.
