Chapter 1716: The Battle of Tianjin! (Seventy-four)

ps: According to the lunar calendar, Xiaofeng just celebrated his birthday today. I wish me some more affordable things and rewards. I am not afraid of it, haha!

"General Zhang, Major Pier is the representative of the chief military officer of the French Observatory Group after all. If you expel him like this, you will bring you diplomatic trouble to your country and your army!" Lieutenant Colonel Ered stood up and persuaded.

"Mr. General, you must think twice!" The representative of Belgian military officers also joined the ranks of persuasion!

At the same time, while these military officers persuaded each other, they all gave a deep glance at Major Pier. They also had an instinctive disgust for such people who made mistakes but instead made a fuss about them.

Zhang Yihu also felt that the time was coming, and he did not really want to expel the French major. He just expressed his attitude and reminded the military officers and representatives present.

"Teacher, it will be difficult to deal with diplomatic disputes!" Qiu An also whispered.

"I can agree not to expel Major Pier, but if he keeps ordering or fails to comply with the rules, we will expel him immediately!" Zhang Yi shouted.

Major Pier was still a little dissatisfied, but was pulled by a lieutenant behind him and whispered a few words in his ear.

Major Pier groaned and sat down!

"Okay, let me announce some of the requirements, or suggestions from the exercise director team for the international military observation team!" Zhang Yihu took out a piece of paper from his pocket!

"First, during the exercise and observation process, you must obey the arrangements of the director team, and do not leave the team privately, and act privately. Discover once. A day of observation activities will be cancelled. If you find an accident in a private action, you will be responsible for your own responsibility!

During the observation exercise, photographs and recording equipment are not allowed. Once the equipment is discovered and confiscated, the crime of intention to steal military secrets will be pursued. This is not in your diplomatic immunity.

Please remember it!

"Article 2: The observation group has group activities and separate activities. If you have any interest and want to visit and learn about it, you can submit an application in advance. With our approval and approval, you can do it!"

"God General, if we want to visit your command center or hospital and other institutions, will you agree?" the Danish military officer representative raised his hand and asked.

"This is theoretically possible. However, there is only a temporary command center in the exercise area. If you want to visit it separately, you must wait until the exercise is over. As for whether the application can be approved, you need a reply from the peak!" Zhang Yihu replied.

"What if we want to take pictures during the observation exercise? Have you sealed all our cameras?"

"We will have special photographers to take photos of you. As long as it is within the allowable range, you can take whatever you want, but the number of photos taken by each person cannot exceed twenty!" Zhang Yi shouted.

"I thought I could not take pictures anymore. Now I'm fine. Although twenty pictures are a little less, it's better than not!" The military officer felt a little regretful, but was still quite satisfied.

“Can’t we take photos freely?”

"Of course this is OK. We have prepared twenty cameras and can be rented for you for free, but the film needs to be purchased at your own expense. The rinsing work must be done by our people. We will cut some of the lenses that may cause trouble!" Zhang Yihu explained, "People who rent the camera will not be given the service of twenty free photos!"

"It sounds pretty good, but it's so troublesome, why don't we bring our own camera?"

"Sorry, Mr. Military Attendant, although our ** team is still very weak, and its combat effectiveness may not be comparable to that of the army of your country, we also have our own secrets!" Zhang Yi shouted.

"Haha, I don't think your country's military secrets are of use to us!"

"Since it is useless, why do you apply for this military observation plan to our military committee?" Zhang Yihu laughed and asked back.

"We just treat it as a show!"

"The play is right? Let's talk about it when I see it!" Zhang Yihu smiled coldly. These Western foreign military officers looked down on the Chinese team. This also has something to do with China's weakness for a hundred years. In their eyes, many people are still speculating whether they will see an army with braids and spears and big swords?

In fact, there is indeed such an army. Isn’t the Twenty-Nine Army just such a mixed force of hot and cold weapons?

These people are afraid that the Chinese team can defeat the Japanese army.

Of course, the Japanese army they looked down upon were among them!

It was the Japanese army they looked down upon that, after a few years, that they slapped these arrogant and arrogant white men.

"During the observation activities, we must follow the guidance of our signs and soldiers. Our signs are in black and white, with Chinese and English comparisons. Those who are not familiar with English can ask for the translation to avoid accidents. A minefield may be temporarily arranged in the exercise area!" Zhang Yi shouted.

"Design a minefield?"

"Yes, this is a live-fire confrontation without a plan, with the scale set at battalion level. In other words, nearly a thousand officers and soldiers will participate in the exercise, with the highest casualties being 30%!" Zhang Yi shouted.

"What, there are 30% of the casualties to treat the symptoms!"

"Yes, determine the total number of deaths and actual deaths. If any party reaches this upper limit, it will be directly judged as losing!" Zhang Yi shouted, "The actual number of casualties will not be so many, but there will definitely be deaths!"

"The Chinese are crazy. Is this still an exercise? This is a war..."

"The exercise is for actual combat. Those who sacrificed during the exercise are all heroes and martyrs!" Zhang Yi shouted.

"The Chinese are really brave enough to do it. I don't know how the opponents of the exercise agreed. They are fighting with the soldiers' lives!"

"If the Japanese military officer representative heard this news, I wonder if he was still happy?"

"Aren't they afraid of the two armies causing friction?"

"It's really incredible, the Chinese really dare to think..."

"This is a live-fire exercise. Since it is live-fire, there will inevitably be casualties. This is inevitable. In your country, aren't there also casualties?" Zhang Yihu asked back.

"God of General, we did have casualties in the exercise, but they were all caused by accidents or soldiers' operational errors, not intentional. Your exercises are duels with the ancient Roman gladiator arena at the cost of one side losing or losing their lives. Such exercises are too cruel!" A Swiss military officer stood up and said.

"Yes, but the battlefield is more cruel than this. Some people may say that if they really sacrifice in the enemy's confrontation, then the sacrifice is valuable, and if they sacrifice in the exercise or die in the hands of their own people, that would be too cowardly!" Zhang Yi shouted, "Yes, many people have this idea, but what we want is practical training. The death in training and exercises is to avoid more casualties in the war. The bloody lesson can always be remembered and remembered more deeply!"

"Maybe there will be many casualties in an exercise. But the problems exposed by casualties will alert our troops, and the lessons learned will make every officer and soldier remember them firmly, so that when they go to the real battlefield, they will survive!" Zhang Yihu shouted, "For every ordinary soldier, the best ending of the war is to survive!"

"God of General, isn't the best ending of war to defeat your own enemies?"

"Yes, this is something the commander needs to consider. There is an old Chinese saying that a general succeeds in thousands of bones. It means a successful general. His achievements are taken over thousands of ordinary soldiers who died!" Zhang Yi shouted, "I'm sorry, in the war era, this is a bumpy truth. It surrounds me. Half of the old brothers who fought with the Japanese army with me are gone. They all died in the battle. Some are just a child, some are not yet married, and some are just born. I often feel sorry for them, but I have no choice. They are not only for me, but also for themselves, for their families, and for this country. Every life is gone. What we have to do is not to let this grief continue to happen. Maybe we can't do this completely, but at least we can make this grief happen less..."

"In order to reduce the grief, we must make up our minds and minimize the cost!"

"Play..."

The applause sounded, from the beginning to the end of the audience's applause. Zhang Yihu's speech was recognized by these military officers' representatives, and many military officers began to reflect on their country's military training strategies in their minds!

"It's very radical, but it seems to be very suitable for today's China!" Lieutenant Colonel Ered said slowly, but his words were drowned out by applause.

"This is just a battalion-level confrontation, it should be affordable." Second Lieutenant Pshar whispered.

"Battery level, whether it is big or small, whether it is small or small. Through this cruel fight, they may have to bear a lot of public pressure. Perhaps this is why they have formulated such strict confidentiality measures!" said Lieutenant Colonel Ered.

"I heard that one of the two sides of the exercise is a newly formed army, and the other is adapted from local miscellaneous brands. Their strength has expanded very strongly recently?" Pshar asked.

"Well, the Ministry of National Defense is discussing cooperation with the Chinese people recently. This time we can come to see the details of the China Team, so that we can provide reference opinions for cooperation!" said Lieutenant Colonel Ered.

"We want to cooperate with the Chinese?" Pshar said in surprise.

"Lieutenant, you have not reached that level yet. It is better to ask less about such things!" said Ered.

"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel!"

"I don't believe the Chinese people really dare to do this!" French major Pierre was a little disdainful.

Whether you believe it or not, at least Zhang Yihu's speech was recognized or appreciated.

Xuanhua Station!

A train from Beiping to Zhangjiakou slowly entered the platform and slowly stopped.

"Myomaki, what carriage is in?" Yamada asked.

"The telegram said it was in the No. 3 carriage. Let's go!" Morijima Kakuyo greeted and walked towards the No. 3 carriage area!

After the crowd, a Japanese major general in his forties, with a serious and serious face, wearing glasses walked down the car door!

While looking around, there was a hint of sinisterness and murderous aura in his eyes!

This person is the representative of the military officer of the Japanese Observatory this time, Major General Hideki Tojo, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Kanto Army!

Behind him, three Japanese lords walked down calmly.

One of them was Major Nishiura, the adjutant of Hideki Tojo, and the remaining two.

They are the deputy military officer of the Japanese Consulate General in Peking, and the Consul General in Shanghai, Major General in Shanghai!

Don’t underestimate these two majors, they are both key figures in the negotiations with China, and they are in dialogue with the government in accordance with the intention of the top Japanese leaders.

Behind them were two men in suits and ties. One was older, about the same as Hideki Tojo, and the other was younger. His hair was combed back, with a layer of hair wax, and followed him step by step!

"Your Excellency General, you have finally arrived!" Kazuyoshi Morishima took off his hat and bowed deeply to Hideki Tojo.

"Myomaki, thank you for your hard work!" Hideki Tojo responded faintly.

"General, the car is outside, please come with me!" said Yoshimorishima Kakuyo.

"Let's go!"

Japan has a consulate in Zhangjiakou, and the convoy that picked up Tojo Hideki drove directly to the station to the Japanese consulate in Zhangjiakou.

"God General, this morning, Mr. James, the manager of the British Renji Foreign Company, was killed in his bedroom. The British side urged the Chinese side to solve the case as soon as possible. According to the information we have obtained, this case seems to be related to a small team of the Chinese army's east-wing resistance that entered Xuanhua City last night!" said Yoshimorijima Kazuya.

"Hmm?" Tojo Hideki raised his eyebrows, "Does this matter have anything to do with you?"

"No, General, General Dohihara has already made clear orders. This is the best opportunity to spy on the strength of the Chinese army. How could we deliberately destroy it?" Yoshihiro Morishima explained hurriedly.

"I hope this is the case!" Hideki Tojo slowly closed his eyes.

"God of General, the Chinese army requires that the military officers of the observation group must gather at the temporary camp of the Jellyfish Palace at 2:00 this afternoon at the latest, and then go to the observation exercise together!" Matsushima Kakuyoshi took out a piece of paper, "This is their written notice!"

“How long is the last time now?”

"There are less than three hours left!"

"Which country has not arrived except us?"

"There are also Americans!" said Yoshimorishima Kakuya.

"I understand, go to the consulate to rest first, and then go!" Hideki Tojo ordered.

"Hay, but General, the Chinese people stipulate that military officers are not allowed to bring their families, and they do not need to bring any daily necessities. In terms of weapons, no one only needs to bring a self-defense pistol, and no more than thirty bullets!" said Yoshimorishima Kakuyo.

"What is this rule? Can't I even take the adjutant and the orderly officer?" Hideki Tojo said dissatisfied.

"Yes, each person is allowed to bring one translator, and if there are too many, it will not be allowed!"

"That means that there are only six people in total?" Hideki Tojo said.
