    Chapter 830: Shifting the blame

    The seizure of captured Soviet Pacific Fleet warships and sailors from Haishanwei was an important part of Tang Qiuli's Far East plan. The fleet's smooth departure from Haishanwei Military Port was only the first step.  (_-< Registered members of Piaotian Literature recommend this work >-)

    For the first time, the residents of Haishanwei began a normal morning life without Japanese military patrols. After the residents stepped out of their homes, they were surprised to find that the usual groups of Japanese patrols were not seen on the streets.  Plaster flags tied to bayonets were lined up in columns, marching arrogantly through the streets with loud footsteps. Surprisingly, not a single Japanese soldier with a conqueror's face could be seen.

    There was neither gunshots nor any commotion last night. These Japanese just disappeared from Haishanwei Street. The neighbors who got up early exchanged glances with each other. All they saw was exploration. The sun rose and there were no more Japanese troops.  The soldiers' majesty seemed to have returned to its former tranquility, and people's lives continued as usual. No one bothered to delve into the reason.

    As Tang Qiuli expected, the Japanese Kwantung Army discovered the abnormal situation in Haishanwei two days later. The materials that needed to be transferred from Haishanwei were not received for two consecutive days. The 19th Baggage Brigade did not give any explanation. The Kwantung Army  The logistics department's calls to Haishanwei were almost overwhelming, but no one answered. At this time, everything that happened in Haishanwei had not aroused suspicion.

    On the evening of the next day, several cars belonging to the Kwantung Army troops drove into Haishanwei in a dusty road. In a car in the middle, sitting in the car was Major General Gong Zhexi, the director of transportation of the Kwantung Army Logistics Department, transporting heavy equipment needed by the front line.  If they can't go up, the Kwantung Army headquarters sends several telegrams a day to urge them, and the logistics department can't stand it any longer. Although in his heart, the logistics director of the Kwantung Army wishes he could kill Masao Ueda, the captain of the 19th Baggage Brigade.

    But he knew this guy's background, so he had no choice but to send Major General Gong Zhexi, the director of operations, to go to Haishanwei in person to supervise the formation. Before Gong Zhe left, the minister specially told him not to make trouble with this guy Ueda in Haishanwei.  It's too stiff, as long as the baggage transportation returns to normal.

    Your Excellency, the Minister, knows that Gong Tetsuki has a donkey temper, and he doesn't like him either. He talks about being loyal to the Empire all day long, as if he is the only loyal subject of His Majesty the Emperor. If it weren't for his talents, he would still be able to do things  It was very smooth, and he had already been sent to a remote area to guard the warehouse.

    "As soon as this guy has a bad temper, if he gets into trouble with Masao Ueda and the incident reaches the ears of Commander Ueda Kenkichi, he will suffer the same consequences. There is no need.

    Gong Zhexi came to Haishanwei very angry. He knew Masao Ueda very well. He was a playboy who relied on his uncle's official position to get a leisurely and fat job. Such a person is also worthy of being a member of the Imperial Army of Japan.  Officer, Gong Zhe was angry and took along the female relatives of Kwantung Army Commander Ueda Kenkichi to greet them one by one.

    Entering the city of Haishanwei, I didn't see a single imperial soldier, let alone a patrol. Gong Zhekiyi could no longer suppress his anger. This guy Ueda was too shameless. In the huge Haishanwei, there was not even a patrol team.  Not dispatched, derelict in duty, slacking off to such an extent, it is a real embarrassment to the soldiers of the empire.

    Miya Tetsuki had made a plan. When he saw Masao Ueda, he must give him a good lesson. Not to mention that he was the nephew of His Excellency the Commander. Even if His Majesty the Emperor was his brother-in-law, he would not spare him. Fighting for this  I don't want the major general's future, and we can't let this young man do whatever he wants to hinder the progress of the Holy War in Greater East Asia.

    When they arrived at the station of the 19th Baggage Brigade, the camp door was closed. Gong Zhexi and his party broke in. The camp was quiet and noiseless, like a ghost town. It was so quiet that it made people feel uncomfortable. They searched the surroundings and found no soldiers.  Gong Zhe felt that something was not quite right, and a large amount of supplies disappeared.

    The Logistics Department did not transfer the 19th Baggage Brigade to other places at all. Thousands of people in a brigade were just lost?  From the moment he entered Haishanwei, he felt that something was not normal there. A casual staff officer hurried over and said, "Your Excellency, General, we found something unusual in the nearby Marine Corps camp." Gong Zhe was startled and followed the staff officer.  past.

    The sight of the Marine Corps camp shocked Gong Zheki. There were corpses of Marines everywhere, bleeding from all the orifices. The conditions of death were extremely horrific. The entire camp turned into a hell of Shura. More than 3,000 Marines were so mysterious.  Death, the 19th Baggage Brigade mysteriously disappeared, everything revealed a kind of deceit and weirdness.

    A gust of sea breeze blew, and Gong Zhexi shivered. He could not understand or explain this phenomenon, so he truthfully reported everything that happened in Haishanwei to the Logistics Department of the Kwantung Army. Until now, he had not noticed that the ship parked at the military port  More than a hundred warships of the Soviet Pacific Fleet have also mysteriously disappeared.

    After receiving the report from the Logistics Department, the Kwantung Army Headquarters immediately went into a frenzy.Thousands of people and a large amount of military supplies from the 19th Baggage Brigade mysteriously disappeared, and more than 3,000 soldiers from the remaining troops of the 4th Marine Corps Brigade died mysteriously. This is a big deal. General Kenkichi Ueda, the commander of the Kwantung Army, also  Before they could figure out the matter, they received a report from the Logistics Department that the Soviet prisoners of war and more than a hundred warships detained in the military port also mysteriously disappeared.

    Ueda Kenkichi immediately understood that this series of mysterious disappearances and deaths was a big conspiracy, a conspiracy surrounding the Soviet Pacific Fleet, and the target was these more than a hundred captured Soviet warships.

    The Japanese Navy only received the news on the afternoon of the third day. Due to the historical grievances between the Army and the Navy, Ueda Kenkichi did not immediately report the missing warship to the Navy. What he did first was  Try to keep this serious incident away from the Kwantung Army, which is enough to make many people lose their heads, especially when it involves his unfulfilled nephew.

    After finishing these things, he sent a telegram to the base camp, "At the base camp, a serious dereliction of duty occurred in the Haishanwei area occupied by the Kwantung Army. According to the report of our Kwantung Army troops stationed in Haishanwei, the Soviet Pacific Fleet captured by our unit  and more than 18,000 prisoners of war, who mysteriously disappeared two days ago after being transferred to the custody of the Navy. The remaining troops of the 4th Marine Corps Brigade responsible for guarding prisoners of war and warships, more than 3,000 people died mysteriously, please send help to the base camp as soon as possible.  Officers are here to investigate the matter thoroughly.¡±

    After sending the telegram to the base camp, Ueda Kenyoshi informed the navy of the matter, "His Excellency Mitsumasa Yoneuchi, Minister of the Navy, the Soviet prisoners of war and warships captured by our Kwantung Army troops were handed over to the custody of the Navy two days ago.  The mysterious disappearance and the death of more than 3,000 people from the 4th Marine Corps Brigade, I will report this matter to the base camp and inform you of the matter in a timely manner."

    The content of the telegram was simple, and the responsibility of the Kwantung Army was completely wiped out at once. Ueda Kenkichi was severely disgusted by Mitsumasa Yoneuchi, the number one figure in the Japanese Navy. This incident happened while in the custody of your navy.  Yes, it has nothing to do with the Kwantung Army. Let me tell you, it¡¯s pretty good. It¡¯s not that I didn¡¯t ventilate it in advance. This is a big deal. You can explain it to His Majesty the Emperor and the base camp yourself.

    Japanese Navy Minister Mitsumasa Yoneuchi was trembling with anger when he saw Ueda Kenkichi's telegram. This hateful fisherman (Ueda Kenkichi's grandfather was a poor fisherman in Hokkaido), such a major event happened in Haishanwei. He spent a day  It took a lot of time to inform him that the telegram from the base camp requesting an explanation from the navy arrived five hours earlier than Ueda Kenkichi.

    But he had nothing to say. After all, the Soviet prisoners of war and warships disappeared under the care of the Marine Corps. This responsibility could not be shied away from. He and Ueda Kenkichi had the same judgment. This was conducted around the Soviet Pacific Fleet.  A big conspiracy. If the warships and prisoners of war were hijacked, the only way to leave the Sea of ??Japan is to the Pacific Ocean.

    The hijackers did not dare to pass through the several passages between the Zongshen Strait and the four Japanese islands. They could only take the Korean Strait, which was the only passage to the Pacific. After roughly judging this, Yoneuchi Mitsumasa began to think again.  , which country and force is interested in the Soviet Pacific Fleet?

    He looked over the map repeatedly, and suddenly, he was shocked. Could it be that Tang Qiuli, who was called "China Devil" by the Army guys? He was the only one with such strength. Moreover, several important ports along the coast of China,  They are all capable of docking for such a large fleet. If the Soviets want to do this, there is no possibility of doing so, both in terms of the route and the possibility of escaping back to the homeland.

    Only Tang Qiuli has this ability and convenience. "Tang Qiuli" Mitsumasa Yoneuchi almost squeezed out these three words through his teeth. The navy has never fought against the China Army Division commanded by Tang Qiuli. I don't know.  What is suffering? For the Army's successive defeats at the hands of Tang Qiuli, Mitsumasa Yonei didn't have much feeling other than to gloat about his misfortune and use Tang Qiuli to continuously attack the Army.

    Originally, there was no way to fight on land or sea. Mitsumasa Yoneuchi, who was watching the fire from the other side, thought that this legendary China devil had nothing to do with him, but Tang Qiuli suddenly punched him hard in Haishan.  , not only robbed more than a hundred warships, but also killed more than 3,000 people of his own. This punch made Mitsumasa Yonei's eyes flash with stars, and he was miserable. He must end it as quickly as possible and with the most perfect result.  this incident.

    Otherwise, the navy will become the object of ridicule by the army guys, and I will not have a reasonable explanation to His Majesty the Emperor. The most important thing is to use the opportunity of capturing more than a hundred warships of the Soviet Pacific Fleet to expand the navy's strength.  It would also fail. So many warships made him feel so distressed that he almost fainted.

    Miunai Guangzheng has deeper worries. If these warships fall into the hands of the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli, within two years, Tang Qiuli's fleet will appear in the Pacific and wander around Southeast Asia.The days when the Japanese navy dominated the South Pacific will be gone forever.

    I am afraid that the future of the navy will be as difficult as that of the army. Therefore, even if he cannot get it, Mitsumasa Yoneuchi is determined to destroy these Soviet warships that are a potential threat to him.
