Chapter 991 What can they do even if they know?
Just then, Akiko Nanzo entered from outside. She handed the telegram in her hand to Xiao Ya and then said to Fang Shengli, "This time, the Tang Army received orders from the war zone command headquarters. They are not allowed to send any troops and can even retreat to the rear and let the Japanese army enter. Whether this is intentional or unintentional, no one knows."
After Xiao Ya finished reading the document and signed her name, she said, "Yes, so we still need to be careful. After all, Awen even killed the commander of his Independent Division this time. I don't believe that Tang Juntuan has no ulterior motives."
"If he insists on doing so, what should we do?" Wang Yun, who was proofreading the manuscript next to him, looked up and asked.
Xiao Ya chuckled softly, and then, amidst that gentle laughter, uttered the most terrifying words: "If he dares to do that, we won't hesitate to send him to his death."
Tang Army Headquarters.
Tang Paopao stood in front of the map, observing the current marching direction of the Japanese army.
He had to admire Zhou Weiguo; although Zhou Weiguo was hateful, he was indeed a step ahead in terms of strategy and scheming.
Putting aside other things, by using the fact that he eliminated the commander of his own Independent Division, the Japanese army believed that their relationship with the Independent Brigade had soured, and thus thought that they would not interfere when he attacked.
Indeed, Zhou Weiguo's plan was successful. The Japanese army did not pay as much attention to him as he had, only sending a small number of troops to his front, while his main force went to attack Zhou Weiguo's independent brigade and the Sichuan Army Division he had occasionally encountered.
"Commander, a cavalry force of about two battalions has suddenly appeared between us and the Independent Regiment. The forward observation post reports that we should intercept them." The staff officer came up to him and asked.
"Intercept what? Intercept what?" Tang Paopao turned to look at him and said, "The orders we received were to deliberately make a show of disharmony with them. As for this force, we should not intercept it. If we do, we will be violating the orders of the theater command, and we cannot bear that responsibility."
The chief of staff just watched him quietly, and no matter how he thought about it, he felt that this was settling a personal score.
The Japanese army dispatched two large cavalry battalions, which, regardless of whether they were to deal with the Independent Brigade or whatever, would pose a threat to the Yamashiro army.
You think you can just send such a large army through a command order from the theater command? That's what the theater command told you.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?"
“The legion commander is certainly right, but this is still the strength of two battalions.”
“You underestimate the fighting power of the Independent Brigade. This might not even be enough for them to have a sip of water.” After saying this, Tang Paopao turned around and went to the room next door. He needed to rest and no one was allowed to disturb him.
"Chief of Staff, what do we do now?" a senior staff officer asked as he approached the chief of staff.
The chief of staff remained silent, while a senior staff officer pondered for a moment before saying, "If the independent brigade suffers heavy losses because of this, I'm worried..."
Zhou Weiguo will definitely kill you. His imprisonment was a scheme in itself. He might already be on his way back. By doing this, General Tang is just asking for trouble.
"Tell the Independent Brigade." He was angry. I can't just ignore the lives of my men. Those guys in the Independent Brigade are all lunatics. I can't afford to mess with them, and neither can the entire legion command.
Zhou Weiguo did not reach the mountain city, but instead took a military vehicle back to the Independent Brigade midway.
Because he returned in secret, Zhou Weiguo did not wear military rank insignia, but instead wore a soldier's uniform and worked with Asaka Shurei in the Independent Brigade.
"Second Master, this is a secret telegram from Tang's army." Zhao Shoutian handed the telegram to Zhou Weiguo.
Tian Jing reached out and took the telegram to decipher it. After a short while, she handed the deciphered telegram to Zhou Weiguo and said, "A telegram from Commander Tang says that two battalions of Japanese cavalry are flanking our rear."
"This Tang Paopao is really willing to risk his own life for revenge." After reading the telegram, Zhou Weiguo sneered twice and picked up his teacup.
Nanzo Akiko said from the side, "I was just talking about this with my older sister and Fang Shengli yesterday. I didn't expect him to do it like this today. Maybe we should just kill him."
killed?
Several people looked at Nanzo Akiko.
Nanzo Akiko looked at the men's eyes, then spread her hands. "What are you doing? We're on the front lines now. It's understandable that the Japanese are trying to assassinate our high-ranking officers in order to win."
This makes sense, after all, this is the front line, and the location of Tang's army headquarters is also in the combat zone. It's understandable that the Japanese would attempt to assassinate a high-ranking general like him.
“That’s too deliberate,” Xiao Ya rejected the suggestion from the side. “Everyone knows that Tang Paopao’s relationship with us is very tense. If we get rid of him at this time, it would mean that we did it.”
Shen Xin, who was organizing documents at another table, nodded. "I agree with Xiao Ya's point of view. Getting rid of Tang Paopao is easy, but the problem is that his troops will temporarily lose command, which is not good for the overall occupation. Our plan this time is that he belongs to the salient and will be the elite force to encircle the Japanese army. His army is notorious now. If he can't turn the tide, he won't have a good time either."
"You mean you're letting them off the hook for now, right?" Zhou Weiguo asked.
The others all agreed, and even Nanzo Akiko, who had initially proposed the assassination plan, felt it was better to spare his fat life.
Seeing that everyone nodded, Zhou Weiguo looked at Asaka Shurei, who was standing by the window; "Shurei, what do you think?"
"Whether he lives or dies doesn't affect us much." Asaka Shurei turned around and looked at the group before saying, "We have more than one chance to kill him. I'm thinking about something else now."
Another question?
Zhou Weiguo hummed in agreement and then asked, "What is your question?"
"Our plan seems brilliant and more than enough to deal with Togo Heiichiro, but don't forget, we have people in Tokyo who know us."
The group immediately tensed up. This matter might deceive others, but it couldn't fool the people in Tokyo. Not to mention, Okamura Yasuji and his group who had fled to Canada would easily know, and Prince Asaka could also analyze it. This was probably a conspiracy.
Zhou Weiguo chuckled and crossed his arms, saying, "So what if I know?"
