"Shit, it's just... wait until night, and I will wait too."

Yan Laoxi is also on the bar, and he can't go against it. In the land of Jin, no one dares to block his way. Today is... a precedent. The site was blocked by the Central Army, his old face was burning hot.

"Look, the general's car is here."

I don't know who yelled that loudly.

Yan Laoxi hurriedly turned around to take a closer look, and sure enough it was Liang Xiao who came, a camouflage jeep, a group of more than a dozen vehicles, and a large truck full of camouflage soldiers.

This kid's ostentation is almost catching up with the commissioner's seat, and it is the first time that he is allowed to stand at the gate of the city to welcome him.

The convoy stopped at the gate of the city.

"The general is here."

A loud voice sounded.

The generals of the new tenth army cheered up one by one, held their chests up, and under the leadership of army commander Cao Xian, they lined up in two neat rows, as if they were waiting for inspection.

Liang Xiao got out of the car and looked up, Yan Laoxi, why is he here? Then he glanced at the adjutant Chen Hua.

Chen Hua shook her head lightly, expressing that she didn't know. She only knew that the generals of the New Tenth Army would go out of the city to meet the generals, but she didn't know that Yan Laoxi, the commander of the World War II zone, was also present.

A smile appeared on Liang Xiaojun's cold face, and he walked slowly.

"Commander Yan."

"General Liang."

Yan Laoxi wiped the hot sweat off his brow, and didn't... Yue, without looking at Liang Xiao, said unhurriedly: "I'm just wondering, this Are you the commander in the World War II zone, or am I the commander?"

"It goes without saying, of course you are the commander."

Liang Xiao just glanced at Cao Xian and others, and some things became clear.

"Since I am the commander, why don't I even have the right to enter the city, and I have to wait for you, Commander Liang, to speak."

Yan Laoxi frowned, Lao Gao asked with drooping eyelids.

Liang Xiao smiled slightly, turned around to look at Cao Xian and other generals, and scolded: "It's all good things you did, Commander-in-Chief Yan is the backbone of our World War II zone, Taiyuan is his former residence, and you actually stop him from letting him go." Entering the city, what do you want to do, rebel?"

"General..."

Just as Cao Xian was about to speak, he was stopped by Chief of Staff Yang Youguo.

Yang Youguo hurriedly put on a smile and said, "General, it's not that the lowly ranks and others deliberately prevented Commander Yan from entering the city. I can't afford this consequence, so the humble officers and others have no choice but to let Commander Yan wait outside the city, and when you arrive, everything is up to you."

Liang Xiao's expression softened a little, and he turned to Yan Laoxi and said with a smile: "Commander Yan, you have heard what he said. You are not allowed to enter the city for the sake of your safety, and there is no other intention."

Yan Laoxi snorted coldly, how could he, can't see, this is a double reed sung by Liang Xiao and his subordinates, but, the matter has come to this point, nothing will work, anyway...he waited at the gate of the city up.

"General Liang, can I enter the city now?"

"sure."

Liang Xiao smiled and said: "You are the backbone of the people in Jin. I believe the people in the city will be very happy when you return to Taiyuan. Even if there are remaining devils, they dare not harm you at this time. Besides, there are new ten people in Taiyuan city. The army is stationed, and the remaining devils will not be able to jump for a few days."

hear this.

Yan Laoxi's complexion became more and more... It's not good, Liang Xiao is telling him that after Taiyuan is restored, the garrison in the city will not withdraw.

"General Liang."

Yan Laoxi felt that it was necessary to settle the old score with Liang Xiao, and said: "Before the battle started, we agreed that your Central Army and the [-]th Army will contain the Japanese troops from the left and right wings, and disperse the Japanese troops in front of our Jinsui Army. The main force, and then we will return to the teacher in Yangquan."

"Actually, the battle has been going on for two days, and your central army is still silent. If it weren't for the heavy rain, the devils wanted to defeat the main force of our Jinsui army in one fell swoop, would you still be here: reaping the benefits of a fisherman?"

"It's all right for you to send troops, but why didn't you join forces with our Jinsui Army in Yangquan as agreed in advance, but sent the New Tenth Army to detour behind Taiyuan, take advantage of the emptiness behind the devils, and take Taiyuan City in one fell swoop, so that's it!" Calculate."

"In this way, people in the world will only think that Taiyuan was laid down by you, Liang Feiyu. What does it have to do with our Jinsui army? Let me tell you, I have lived in Taiyuan for more than ten years. I didn't move when the Central Plains fought. It is even more impossible today. gone."

After speaking.

Surrounded by adjutants and guards, Yan Laoxi marched into Taiyuan City with great vigor.

Liang Xiao turned around to look at the generals of the New Tenth Army, and said with a sneer, "You are all capable. If you stop the commander of the war zone outside the city gate and spread the word, others will think that it is me, Liang Feiyu, who wants to occupy the magpie's nest."

"General, this is all due to the humble rank."

Cao Xian came forward to stop the responsibility: "It's all because of the humble official...he was confused and stopped him without considering the consequences. No matter how you punish him, the humble official has no complaints."

"General, this matter is also half of the responsibility of the humble post. As the chief of staff, he did not consider the consequences. It is the humble post that the chief of staff is incompetent."

Yang Youguo Road.

"The army commander and the chief of staff... have one heart."

Liang Xiao said coldly: "You put all your heart into fighting, don't use it in crooked ways, even if Yan Laoxi loses Jin, he is also a powerful faction in the north, even the committee members have to be polite to him, you guys But fortunately, he was stopped outside the city gate, deliberately not wanting to let me live in peace for a few days."

Chapter 558 Itagaki needs to understand Liang Xiao

"General, that's not what we mean. Yan Laoxi was the local emperor here before, but our troops have come and taken back Taiyuan from the devils. Logically speaking, Taiyuan is... our territory, you said Words are commands, and what he says is pure fart."

Cao Xiandao.

"Let me wipe your asses in the future, you should go back to the Beijing-Shanghai area as soon as possible, and don't run to North China to embarrass me."

Liang Xiao scolded coldly.

When he said this, Cao Xian and the generals stopped talking immediately. They all understood that the general was just... verbally punishing them, and he would not really do anything to them.

They really guessed what Liang Xiao was thinking, for such a trivial matter, he would not punish his subordinates, it was not worth it, especially for someone like Yan Laoxi, it was even more not worth it.

What they said was actually correct, Taiyuan was captured by their own troops, and it was not up to others to issue orders.

"I heard that Seishiro Itagaki wants to see me"

Liang Xiao changed his voice, instead of wasting time on this matter, he turned to ask about the old devil Seishiro Itagaki.

"Yes, after the old devil Itagaki was captured by us, he clamored all day to see you. He said that after seeing you, he would kill himself by harakiri to thank the emperor."

Cao Xiandao.

"Go see him..."

Liang Xiao said.

"General, in fact, you don't need to meet him, anyway...he is now in our hands, life and death are also under our control, why should you see him as a defeated general?"

Cao Xiandao.

"Sometimes the enemy is our best teacher. Although Itagaki lost to us, it cannot be denied that he is not a qualified commander. On the contrary, his command ability is at the upper-middle level among Japanese generals. This time we The capture of Taiyuan, as Commander-in-Chief Yan said, is a fisherman’s profit, if Itagaki hadn’t transferred the main force to fight against the Jinsui Army, we would have to pay a price if we wanted to capture Taiyuan with its high walls and high walls.”

Liang Xiao said.

"But no matter what, we took down Taiyuan City. Without us, the Jinsui Army would still be beaten by devils, let alone return to Taiyuan."

Cao Xian said indifferently.

"Let's not talk about that, go into the city, I'll go see Itagaki."

Liang Xiao said.

"Yes."

Cao Xian nodded.

into the city.

Cao Xian led the generals to surround Liang Xiao and came to the headquarters of the Fifth Division.

Of course, the command post of the Japanese army has now become the headquarters of the New Tenth Army.

The signboard was also replaced with the words "New Tenth Army Headquarters".

Surrounded by all the generals, Liang Xiao headed to the headquarters of the New Tenth Army.

"General, I'm so humble that I'm going to have someone bring Old Devil Itagaki with me."

Cao Xiandao.

"Um."

Liang Xiao nodded, he also had the same intention, since Ban Yuan wants to see him, it doesn't hurt to meet him.

A little while.

Itagaki was brought in. Since he was captured, his lieutenant general's uniform was stripped off. He only wore a shirt and a pair of army trousers. His leather boots were also stripped off. Old cloth shoes, with heavy chains on the feet.

Liang Xiao looked at the old devil Itagaki, and waved his hand to let the guards open his iron chain. Although he is an invader, he is also a respectable opponent, and he should not be treated in such a humiliating way.

"Itagaki Seishiro."

Liang Xiao laughed and said.

"Mr. Liang."

Itagaki Seishiro bowed fiercely to Liang Xiao, raised his head and looked at Liang Xiao.

Since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the young man in front of him has suddenly become a confidant of the imperial army. A little man who was unknown before the Anti-Japanese War has suddenly become an international world famous general. In exchange for the lives of the warriors of the Empire.

"I heard you want to see me."

Liang Xiao smiled faintly.

"Yes."

Itagaki Seishiro nodded: "Before this, my understanding of Mr. Liang was limited to the relevant information provided by the newspapers and the intelligence department of the base camp. These information are almost widely known, and there is not much substantive content, so I want to meet you... , in order to get to know you better."

"I'm right in front of you right now, what's the use of you knowing, can you go to the battlefield again?"

Liang Xiao couldn't help laughing.

"Although this failure may end my military career here, it does not prevent me from getting to know you. You are the number one enemy of the empire in China, and you are more harmful to the empire than the committee member in Shancheng. In fact, you can be called the number one enemy of the empire, for this reason, I must find your weakness and help the imperial army completely defeat you."

Itagaki Seishiro stated his purpose without any concealment.

"But I'm afraid you won't have that chance."

Liang Xiao smiled lightly.

"No, I have this opportunity. According to the relevant regulations of Geneva, you cannot abuse me or discriminate against me. Within a limited period of time, you must return me to the Imperial Army. Otherwise, you have violated the regulations of Geneva and will be punished." Condemnation and crusade from all over the world."

Itagaki Seishiro said plausibly.

"Geneva regulations, have you followed them?"

Liang Xiao sneered disdainfully.

"Let's not discuss this issue for now. What I want to know is that this time Taiyuan fell, why didn't you fear that the Jinsui army would be wiped out by me, and why did you hold back your troops? This made me mistakenly think that you would refuse to send troops because of the bad weather, and just sit back and watch the tigers." Dou, wait for the Jinsui army to be annihilated by our imperial army."

Itagaki Seishiro asked.

"Itagaki, your Fifth Division, I have wiped out two infantry regiments and cavalry regiments, and the remaining troops are only half. For this half strength, you will get a part to defend the city. The available troops in the Jinzhong battlefield are less than [-]. , with [-] to [-], ten to one troops, if the Jinsui army is defeated by ten to one troops, it deserves it. Even if they are all wiped out by you, I will not feel sorry, I will only feel that the Jinsui army is defeated. The army is simply...a stupid pig army, and there is no point in keeping such an army."

Liang Xiao said coldly.

"Understood, in the final analysis, you don't care about the life and death of the Jinsui army at all."

Itagaki Seishiro said slowly: "The factions of your Chinese army are too complicated, so complicated that it gives me a headache, but I still can't understand the relationship between you. It stands to reason that the chief general of the Jinsui Army is Commander-in-Chief Yan of the World War II zone. He is my classmate in the Imperial Military Academy. For... this old classmate, I would say hesitant and unbearable. You are the deputy commander of the World War II zone. If he is in danger, you should help him... ...."

"I am the Central Army, he is the Jinsui Army, and both are in the national army's battle order, but fundamentally, we are not the same kind of people."

Liang Xiao said.

"Understood."

Itagaki nodded slowly: "This is also the reason why you didn't send troops to rescue him, but directly sent troops to attack Taiyuan by detour."

Chapter 559 The General Makes a Wedding Dress for Yan Laoxi

"Itagaki, you've finished asking your questions, and it's time for me to pronounce your crimes."

Liang Xiao sneered.

"What crime do you want to be sentenced to?"

Seishiro Itagaki smiled and said, from the bottom of his heart, he doesn't believe what Liang Xiao should do to him, you know, he is the lieutenant general of the empire, the commander of the mighty Fifth Division, if Liang Xiao pronounces his crime, it will be with Geneva Contrary to the convention, at that time he will become the public enemy of the whole world.

"As the deputy commander-in-chief of the second war zone, I pronounce the sentence. During the war of aggression against China, Seishiro Itagaki, the commander of the fifth division, used dirty methods and was incompetent on the battlefield. He vented his anger on the people of Taiyuan and was defeated. , intending to blow up the entire city of Taiyuan, his heart can be punished, his crime cannot be tolerated, I will sentence you to parade in the streets for three days, and you will be quartered by five horses."

Liang Xiaocai didn't care about the Geneva Conventions. If it was a crime, Seishiro Itagaki almost blew up the entire city, and hundreds of thousands of people were almost buried in the ruins. This is a heinous crime.

If this unforgivable crime is not severely punished, how can it deter the wolfish ambitions of the Japanese aggressors?
