Chapter 68

"They are really watching their wives, children, and young people kill them?" Xu Shijiu asked again

"How can that be? This man must be saved." Shu Tongwen said, "Even if he can't save him, he must do it.

Shu Tongwen said something cruel, but the truth is that in the environment where the enemy is strong and we are weak, sacrifice is inevitable. If we really fight against the little Japanese to save a few military families, then the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army would have been exhausted.

"But these are not one or two, but a few hundred?" Xu Shijiu said with concern, "And I am worried that this is only the first batch, and there will be a second batch and the third batch next. If it is only one or two or dozens, the problem is not big, but now there are hundreds or thousands, and I am worried that it will shake the morale of the army."

Gao Shenxing couldn't help but complain: "Old Xu, I have advised you a long time ago. You must not let those military families go back, but you just don't listen to your advice. When you wanted to listen to my advice, you insisted on leaving all the military families in Erlong Mountain, how could this happen?"

"You can't blame the captain for this matter." Shu Tongwen said, "The situation was special at that time, so you couldn't tie them up with a rope, right? Besides, the mountains really couldn't support so many people. After all, it was still too sinister for the little Japanese to give priority to the military family and win over the hearts of the people. Now the people's hearts are facing them, and they are in turn threatening us with the military family. This step is indeed amazing."

Xu Shijiu felt extremely aggrieved. Although he had extraordinary military achievements, he had no knowledge of politics. He could not understand that they were all Chinese and were both anti-Japanese at the beginning. But after half a year, why did they all start to help the Japanese force the 19th Brigade to submit?

"Or..." Gao Shenxing gritted his teeth and whispered, "Block the news first?"

Gao Shenxing's implication was to block the news and prevent the officers and soldiers of the 19th Detachment from knowing that their families had come to Erlong Mountain, and then forced the little Japanese to take action first. If the little Japanese took action, the officers and soldiers of the 19th Detachment would have a bloody hatred with the little Japanese, and from then on, they would never be able to treason and surrender to the enemy and become traitors.

Shu Tongwen immediately changed his sarcasm and said, "What are you talking about, Lao Gao?"

Xu Shijiu also said: "Isn't this forcing the little Japanese to kill their relatives? We must not do such things. Besides, the news is so easy to blockade? Once the brothers know, they certainly hate the little Japanese, don't they hate us?"

Gao Shenxinghuo said: "Then tell me, what should I do now?"

"There will always be a solution." Xu Shijiu said in a deep voice, "I don't believe it. Living people can still suffocate their urine to death.

Yanjia Town, independent mixed 14th Brigade Headquarters.

Takae Fujido personally poured a cup of tea for Haneda and said, "Haneda San, you can try it."

Haneda took the teacup with both hands, took a sip, and then savored: "It seems to be lighter than before."

"Of course." Takayoshi Fujido poured a cup for himself, then put down the teapot and said, "This is the autumn tea I just picked. As the saying goes, spring tea is bitter and summer tea is astringent. It should be delicious. However, if you want to taste good tea, you still need the old tea in the deep mountains and Haneda Sang. You have a good taste. If you are in Japan, it is very rare to drink such good tea."

"Your Excellency General is so knowledgeable that you can tell this truth even if you taste a tea."

"When it comes to tea ceremony, I'm just a layman at most." Tengdo Takayoshi took a sip of tea, then closed his eyes and savored it for more than ten seconds, and finally put down the tea cup and asked Haneda, "By the way, Haneda Sang, are you asking me this time? "

"Oh, nothing, I just want to tell the general that the first batch of 146 military families have entered the mountain."

"Is that true?" Fujido Takayoshi smiled and said, "I think what should I do if Xu Shijiu is having a headache now."

"Your Excellency General, I have a question that I have never understood. I wonder if You Youer Excellency General can solve the problem?" Haneda asked.

Fujido Takayoshi, Haneda asked: "God of the General, remember when our brigade first came to Longkou, you strongly opposed the use of iron-blooded measures against the military families of southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army. But now, why did you use the lives of these military families to threaten the officers and soldiers of southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army to fight against Japan and National Salvation Army? Are you not afraid that all the efforts you have made before were wasted?"

"Hanida Sang, have you never heard of an idiom, one time and another?"

"This is the same as that?" Haneda shook his head and said, "Your Excellency General, what does it mean?"

Tengdo Takayo said: "At that time, we had just arrived in Longkou, and the people of Longkou were extremely hostile to us. If we used iron-blooded means to force the officers and soldiers of the southern Anhui anti-Japanese and national salvation army to force the officers and soldiers of the southern Anhui anti-Japanese and national salvation army to surrender, not only would they not make others surrender, but would be more determined to resist the officers and soldiers of the southern Anhui anti-Japanese and national salvation army to surrender, but it would be different at this time."

After taking another sip of autumn tea, Tengdo Gaoying continued: "At this time, after half a year of Huairou and winning over, the hostility of the people of Longkou towards us has been greatly reduced. At this time, if the lives of the military family are used to force the officers and soldiers of the anti-Japanese and national salvation army in southern Anhui, the people of Longkou will not think that we are forcing the military family, but will in turn criticize the anti-Japanese and national salvation army in southern Anhui to cause the separation of flesh and blood."

Haneda said disbelief: "Even if we kill those military families, the people of Longkou will think so?"

"It's incredible? Isn't it?" Fujido Takayoshi smiled, "But it must be the case. After all, the people of Longkou have become accustomed to our gentle existence. They do not want to destroy this situation. If the anti-Japanese and national salvation army in southern Anhui refuses to release people, then they will become destroyers of this situation. Will the people of Longkou like them?"

Haneda nodded thoughtfully and asked again: "God of General, I still have a question, why do you need to enter the mountain in batches? Why don't you put all your military families into the mountain at once? Isn't this more convenient? Moreover, doing so seems to be more likely to cause the anti-Japanese army in southern Anhui to shake."

Takae Fujido smiled and asked, "Hanida, have you never heard of the story of boiling frogs in warm water?

"Boil the frog in warm water?" Haneda said with a frown, "Of course I've heard of it, but what does it have to do with it?"

Takayoshi Fujido said: "Boiling a frog in warm water is the core of a process from quantitative change to qualitative change. If we put all the military families into the mountains at one time, it will be easier to cause chaos in the southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army. However, on the other hand, it will easily prompt Xu Shijiu to make up his mind to solve the problem with the determination of a hero cutting off his arm."

"A hero cut off his arm? Could it be that Xu Shijiu dared to execute all the officers and soldiers whose family members were under our control?" Haneda said, "If Xu Shijiu really wants to do this, there are probably not many people left in the southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army?

"No, Xu Shijiu doesn't need to execute those officers and soldiers at all." Fujido Gaoying waved his hand and continued, "He only needs to fight a war with us and act as if he is trying to rescue his subordinates with all his might. Even if he can't save people in the end, his officers and soldiers will be devoted to him from now on, and will be even more hated to the Imperial Army."

"Then now, Xu Shijiu can do this," Haneda said.

"No, Xu Shijiu is a rational commander. He will seriously weigh the pros and cons. Compared to losing one hundred soldiers, the cost of provoking a battle is greater. He has fought with our brigade in Yanjia Town. He should be aware of this, so he will not take the initiative to attack us easily." Fujido Takayoshi said confidently.

Haneda said again: "But when the second group of military subordinates enter the mountain, Xu Shijiu should react and know that you are boiling a frog in warm water, right?"

"No need to wait until the second group of military subordinates enters the mountain. Xu Shijiu should know my intention now." Fujido Takayoshi smiled and continued, "But he knows that my intention is one thing, and whether he can think of a solution is another. This is what Sun Tzu said about the open plot, which follows the trend and follows the trend, without traces to follow the trend and cannot be broken."

"Only conspiracy?" Haneda said, "Your Excellency General is really confident. Is Xu Shijiu really helpless?"
