Chapter 627 Heavenly Locust: No matter how hard it is, Prince, I will bear the blame
Early the next morning, Matsui Iwane tied a white cloth on his forehead, brought two knives, one long and one short, to Tianhuang's bedroom, and knelt directly outside the bedroom.
After the announcement, the devil Tian Huang, who had not slept all night, ran out of the bedroom in disheveled clothes and helped up the general of the empire in front of him.
"General Matsui, why are you doing this?"
"Your Majesty, if I can exchange my life for Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko, I will do it without hesitation. But as a general of the empire, I absolutely cannot be humiliated by the Chinese.
Therefore, I want to commit suicide. Your Majesty, please use my body to exchange for His Royal Highness the Prince."
Matsui Iwane said this with sincerity and immediately drew out his dagger, ready to commit suicide in front of Tianhuang, but Tianhuang grabbed his hand and stopped him.
Tian Huang held Matsui Iwane's hand, looked at it firmly and said, "General Matsui, you are a great contributor to the empire. I will never allow your life to be exchanged for Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko."
The two Japanese soldiers were acting out the roles of a king and his subject, but they didn't know that Tian Huang was already cursing one of them in his heart, "If you want to die, just die at home. Why did you have to come to die in front of my bedroom?"
If you really wanted to exchange for Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko, even if you didn't want to be humiliated by the Chinese, you would have committed suicide at home and sent your body here. Why did you run to my bedroom to commit suicide? Who are you performing for?
Isn't it just to save your own life?
Although he had already cursed Matsui Iwane in his heart, he couldn't help but look warm and gentle as he comforted the Japanese general in front of him.
While the two Japanese devils were still acting out their relationship as king and subject, those from the military and the locust tribe who had received the news had already gathered together. It could be said that almost all of the most powerful people in the Japanese homeland were now gathered here.
Seeing that the time was almost right, the devil Tianhuang said loudly: "General Matsui has contributed a lot to the empire. We must not let General Matsui bleed and cry again, nor can we let the soldiers on the front line feel disappointed.
Now, Prince Asaka Naruhiko needs to suffer again. I will bear the blame and all the responsibility is mine.
I only hope that the generals will quickly eliminate the Eighth Route Army in Jin, crush these resistance forces, and bring back the prince who is trapped in the enemy camp for the country as soon as possible! "
These words were very inspiring and inspiring. Many members of the Japanese army burst into tears, and no one knew what these devils were crying about.
"Onboard! Onboard! Onboard!"
This group of devils cheered "Long live the locust" and their loyalty to Tianhuang was once again enhanced.
Originally, there was a hidden contradiction between the Japanese locust tribe and the military. The proposal to exchange Matsui Iwane for Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko directly deepened this hidden contradiction and completely tore it apart and exposed it to the people of the locust country.
Although Tianhuang had rejected the proposal to exchange Matsui Iwane for Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko in front of everyone, and had done it in a very high-sounding manner, in its heart it had already cursed Matsui Iwane and the guys in the military. If possible, it even wanted to stab the Japanese general in front of it to death with a knife.
Because this time the reputation of the Japanese locust tribe will be severely trampled underfoot, and the status of the locust tribe in the military will be further damaged.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to take the lead in donating all the gold in my family to redeem the trapped locust soldiers, and at the same time strive to save His Royal Highness Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko from torture."
Since Tian Huang has given it a way out, Matsui Iwane cannot be ignorant and directly express his willingness to donate all his property in front of everyone.
"General Matsui is devoted to his country. I thank you on behalf of the soldiers trapped in the enemy camp."
Tianhuang symbolically patted Matsui Iwane on the shoulder to encourage him.
Since Matsui Iwane has set an example and forced the Locust Tribe to bow their heads this time, the other military members had to give him face and quickly followed suit, saying that they would also donate the gold in their homes and even hand over all the gold badges they had obtained, just to save the face of the Locust Tribe.
A few brainless guys mentioned that if they raised funds from the public, they would definitely get more support, and it was the duty of every citizen of the Locust Country to maintain the glory of the empire.
These words sounded a bit harsh to Tian Huang's ears. He felt as if the wronged souls of the women from Huang Country who had been sent to Southeast Asia were crying, and he also felt that the Qing Dynasty was paying compensation.
At this time, the navy officer Yamamoto Isoroku said, "Your Majesty, since the Eighth Route Army specifically requested our Xingya Guanyin statue, for the sake of our national prestige, it is even more impossible to give it to them.
I suggest that we hold a worship ceremony in the near future and list the Jingguo Divine Toilet and the Xingya Guanyin Statue as the most important shrines for worship in our country. "
After hearing these words, Matsui Iwane, who had originally calmed down, began to twitch his mouth. This navy idiot must be so angry that he had to put himself on the fire at this very moment.
If the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi was not so ferocious, when Navy Ma Lu said this, Matsui Iwane might have thought that this guy was trying to show off the majesty of the Locust Country and enhance the self-confidence of the entire nation.
But now that the locust army in North China is being defeated, many locust soldiers have been captured, and even His Royal Highness the Prince has been captured, this guy still wants to carry the Xingya Guanyin statue to such a conspicuous position. Isn't this just bringing hatred to himself?
Matsui Iwane was the one who orchestrated the Nanjing Massacre. At this juncture, he just wanted to keep a low profile, but he didn't expect that these idiots in the navy hated him to such an extent.
Matsui Iwane almost bit his teeth off, and several other Japanese army generals around him turned their heads instantly, staring at Yamamoto Isoroku with murderous eyes.
Isoroku Yamamoto did not respond to this and was in a trance, as if the words just now had nothing to do with him.
Tian Huang couldn't bear to watch it anymore and said: "Yamamoto-kun's suggestion is very good, but the timing is not right now. I will pay my respects in person when the situation is right.
Now that we have decided to agree to the Eighth Route Army's conditions, let's get ready and prepare the corresponding equipment as well as gold and silver dollars."
"Hai!"
All the generals present responded at the same time.
Tian Huang's eyes swept across the faces of the generals present one by one. Deep down in his heart, he was unwilling to pay such a huge price for these captured soldiers. However, at this moment, if he did not bring these senior officers back by ransom, the devils in the military would not be able to settle down.
After all, the next battle still needs to be fought, and it still has to rely on these people, so it can only accept it.
"Generals, after we bring back the senior officers trapped in the enemy camp, we need to seriously consider our strategy towards China.
At the beginning of this war, due to our optimistic estimate, we proposed a plan to "destroy China in three months". After several years of fighting, it has been proved that we cannot do it.
In the next stage, our strategic focus should be placed elsewhere, or on digesting the peninsula and Manchuria that we have already occupied.
I would like you to consider this seriously.”
Tianhuang is very dissatisfied with the military's independent behavior, which often executes things first and then forces it to approve them. Under the current circumstances, it also wants to take the opportunity to give these daring generals a warning, especially these army idiots.
As Tian Huang raised this question, these guys all looked around and didn't give any direct answer, and the situation became more and more subtle.
