Taiyuan City, the headquarters of the 12th Army.
Mitsui Ippei hurriedly walked into the command room with Dr. Neo. Shinozuka Yoshio, who was sitting on a chair checking documents, looked up when he heard the knock on the door. When he saw that it was Dr. Neo, he stood up with a happy face and greeted him excitedly: "Mr. Neo, I'm very glad that you can come to Taiyuan City. With your help, my 12th Army will definitely be able to restore its glory."
After arranging the two to sit down, Shinozuka Yoshio couldn't wait to ask: "Mr. Newei, we have already deployed a large number of plague weapons to the Zhaojiayu base. I want to ask if there is any way to treat this plague?"
Dr. Genwei replied with a serious face: "Commander, please forgive me for being frank. With our current medical level, there is absolutely no way to treat this plague. I hope that Commander will be more cautious when using it."
"I have heard about what happened recently and understand your anxiety, Commander. However, the weapon in my hand is a devil. Once Pandora's box is opened, even I will take control of it. The final result is likely to kill 1000 enemies and lose 1000 of our own. I hope that Commander, if you have any way, don't deploy it near Taiyuan City. It is difficult for me to guarantee that our soldiers will not be affected."
Shinozuka Yoshio replied with an unpleasant expression: "Newei, I have been forced into a corner. I still haven't found where Li Yunlong is hiding. The headquarters is very dissatisfied with me and requires me to find the hiding place of the enemy armored forces before the supplementary fighters arrive."
Dr. Neo knew that Yoshio Shinozuka was not lying. He also received a call from the headquarters last night, asking him to fully cooperate with the 12th Army to eliminate the Zhaojiayu base. He was also given the highest authorization, allowing him to experiment with new weapons at will.
In order to take into account the international impact, the Japanese headquarters gave these weapons that created the plague a new name, called the Devil Punisher. This was a complete act of covering up the truth, but it made the Japanese complacent, thinking that changing the name would solve the problem.
"Commander, the experimental data obtained after the cross-use of Demon Punishment No. 1 and No. 2 is the best. I have arranged for people to deploy them last night, and it is expected that the effect will be seen in two or three days. I think there is no need for you to care about the opinions of the headquarters. As a commander on the front line, you can completely disobey the orders of the king when you are away."
"The headquarters is now giving orders blindly. They only need to write and draw on the map to order the frontline troops to attack. This is a very stupid approach. The warriors of the empire are very brave, but some people in the headquarters are mean people who forget their principles for the sake of profit. Some of their actions are contrary to the spirit of Bushido. I despise some of them."
"I think the commander should continue to follow the previous strategy and take a step-by-step approach to narrow the encirclement little by little. This method may seem very stupid, but it is indeed the safest way. We must be patient with this rat Li Yunlong, otherwise he may seize the opportunity to escape again."
"My nephew Yano is still in the hands of the enemy, but I am not in a hurry. It's not that I think my nephew will definitely survive, but I know how difficult the enemy your Excellency the commander is facing is. The independent regiment that can produce penicillin from scratch in less than a year is much more powerful than we imagined."
"For the sake of the empire's holy war, I hope that the commander will not ignore the interference from the outside and continue to proceed according to the plan of Operation Mouse Catching. As long as we can devour the enemy armored regiment, it is equivalent to directly destroying half of the enemy's main force, which will help us to solve the biggest threat in advance when we capture the Zhaojiayu base next."
Shinozuka Yoshio knew that Dr. Neo's suggestion was the most beneficial to the 12th Army, but he couldn't do it. The reason was very simple. He didn't want to be despised by everyone, nor did he want to make a shocking gamble. For him, solving the current survival crisis first was the most urgent thing.
"Dr. Neo, I'm afraid it won't go as you wish this time. It's not that I, Shinozuka Yoshio, am afraid of death, but the headquarters has issued me an ultimatum. This is the telegram that the headquarters just sent half an hour ago. It is written very clearly that if I don't follow the order, I will be dismissed and someone else will be sent to take over as the commander of the 12th Army."
"In addition, the headquarters has issued a strict order to the military supply department, requiring them to replenish 300 fighter planes for us within half a month. The headquarters has done its utmost this time, and I can no longer shirk my responsibilities. Otherwise, it will bring great trouble to the 12th Army. I hope Dr. Newei can understand!"
"I have made a decision. I will release the Demon Punisher No. 2 into the water sources of some suspicious places during the day tomorrow. I hope to get the full support of the doctor!"
After reading the ultimatum from the headquarters, Dr. Nei knew that Shinozuka Yoshio had no choice. He angrily yelled a few words before reluctantly replying, "Commander, I will arrange for someone to deploy the Devil Punisher II tomorrow. Please immediately order the troops to retreat and strictly follow my orders, otherwise I will not be able to protect the safety of the warriors."
"Also, please prepare the field hospitals to treat the imperial soldiers infected with the plague at any time. As for the Chinese people infected with the plague, they must be executed in time. The plague must not spread on a large scale near Taiyuan City. The consequences are definitely not something we can bear. I hope that the commander can make preparations in advance to avoid being in a rush when the time comes!"
This time, Ippei Mitsui was just a silent spectator. He had no good solution to the current predicament. The loss of more than 4000 million yuan had such a huge impact that it not only alarmed the headquarters, but also directly alarmed the royal family. This left the 12th Army with no choice but to recover the lost money in a very short time.
"Mitsuki, you are responsible for fully cooperating with the doctor and have our warriors retreat immediately. This time, no matter how much it costs, we must recover the money lost by the Specie Bank. This matter has been exposed. If our 12th Army cannot atone for the crime, you and I may be sent to a military court for trial."
Ippei Mitsui has already received information from his family. He knows that Commander Yoshio Shinozuka did not lie. If he cannot recover the money, not only will his gilded career come to an end, but he may also be thrown out by the family to take the blame.
"Commander, please rest assured. I will fully cooperate with the doctor's next move. No matter what the cost, they must take the money back!"
Lin Zhenhua's worries became a reality. He really didn't expect Yoshio Shinozuka to be so crazy. This made the situation of the armored regiment extremely dangerous. If things went wrong, the entire army might be wiped out.
"Old Li, we are completely in the dark about the enemy's troop movements, which is extremely disadvantageous for our next move. I think we can do some intelligence trading with Ichiro Nakamura. As long as our price is high enough, I believe that the profit-seeking Ichiro Nakamura will definitely sell the intelligence to us." Lin Zhenhua suggested with a serious face.
Li Yunlong replied with some concerns: "College student, I have no objection to buying intelligence from the devils, but I am worried that Ichiro Nakamura is likely to sell us false intelligence. If the intelligence is true, then everything will be easy. But if the intelligence is false, our plans and actions based on the wrong intelligence may fall directly into the devil's trap. This is what I am most worried about."
"I've gradually figured out one thing in the past two days. The reason why the Japs are making such a big fuss this time is not only because we severely slapped the face of the Japs' 12th Army, but also because of the money worth more than 4000 million in our hands. This is the fundamental reason why the Japs are so crazy."
"Our previous plan was completely wishful thinking. We underestimated the power of this batch of money. To be honest, if I had so much money and it was stolen, I would get it back no matter how much it cost."
"This money is the real hot potato. As long as the money is in our hands, the Japanese will always focus on us. We can't get rid of it even if we want to."
Zhao Gang replied with an unpleasant expression, "After what Lao Li said, some of the unreasonable things before suddenly became reasonable. The fundamental reason why the Japanese gathered a large number of troops to besiege us is the money in our hands. If our base was not so short of money, I really wanted to give up this money. With this money, we are like walking gold nuggets, attracting the attention of many forces."
"Old Li said before that we can be safe as long as we break through the triple encirclement of the Japanese. I think this is completely wishful thinking. As long as the money cannot be recovered, the Japanese will not give up hunting us down."
Lin Zhenhua also felt a headache and said anxiously, "Damn it, I thought I could use the money in my hand to do a good business with Ichiro Nakamura and open up an intelligence channel. Now it seems that it is very difficult to make this business successful, but now it has come to this point, there is no need for us to hide it anymore. I plan to have a good talk with Ichiro Nakamura to see if I can find a way out of him."
"Starting tomorrow, our radios will also be silent. No more messages will be sent for non-important matters to prevent detection by the Japanese. Wang Xiaoshan, you must report this matter to the base immediately and have Commander Kong prepare in advance!"
