Chapter 31: Prisoner of War Camp (Part 2)

  Lujiabian, train station.

  Takahashi and Satō were waiting for good news from the Special Warfare Battalion and Watanabe, but only Nakagawa was not so reassured. Compared to Takahashi and Satō, Nakagawa had actually clashed with Yue Weihan and the Bao Shan Regiment, knew how formidable and cunning they were, and although Watanabe's Special Warfare Battalion was powerful, it was by no means certain that they would gain the upper hand.

  Just before dawn, there was still no news from Watanabe's side. When Takahashi and the others were getting impatient, the phone in the station master's room suddenly rang. Lieutenant Tanabe, the station master of Rokko Station, hastily picked up the phone. After a brief "moshi moshi", Tanabe's face quickly turned extremely stern.

  "Nakagawa Taisha said calmly: 'Tanabe-kun, what's wrong?'"

  "Sir, about half an hour ago, the Chinese POW camp located in the eastern suburbs of Kunshan was suddenly attacked by the Chinese army. The more than 1,000 Chinese POWs detained in the camp have all escaped. Now, the group of Chinese soldiers who attacked the camp are launching a fierce attack on the Kunshan train station with the cooperation of the more than 1,000 Chinese POWs!"

  "Kunshan Railway Station?" Captain Takahashi's face suddenly changed, "It's bad, at present Kunshan city only has a Taiwanese defense battalion with weak combat effectiveness. The Kunshan railway station also has a field hospital and a field ammunition depot, where hundreds of seriously wounded soldiers are waiting to be transferred to Shanghai, and some military supplies are stored. If these wounded soldiers and military supplies fall into the hands of the Chinese army, the consequences will be unthinkable!"

  Nakagawa Taisa said beside him: "The ones who attacked the Kunshan concentration camp and train station must be Yangcun's Jap troops!"

  "If that's the case, then it means Watanabe-san has already lost in Yangcun," said Major General Sato.

  "It's unlikely that he missed, I think it was a decoy." Takahashi turned to Nakagawa and said, "Nakagawa-san, what do you think we should do now?"

  "I immediately led the 36th Brigade to circle around from the south, Nakagawa-kun, you lead the Imperial Guard Division along the railway line, Sato-kun, please inform Watanabe-kun at once and have his Special Warfare Brigade encircle from the north." With that said, Major General Nakagawa heavily slapped the map marked with Kunshan's location and shouted, "This time we must surround the Chinese army in Kunshan and thoroughly settle them!"

  "Hurray!"

  "Hurray!"

  Taka-hashi and Sato simultaneously bowed their heads deeply.

  …………

  Kunshan Railway Station.

  Yue Weihan stood on the platform with his hands under his chin, deep in thought. In front of him, a train was quietly waiting.

  In fact, this train was originally a freight train running between Shanghai and Nanjing. After Shanghai fell, it became a transportation tool for the Japanese army. When the Baoshan Camp attacked Kunshan Station, the train happened to be stopped at the station, preparing to transport the seriously injured devils who were stranded in the Kunshan barracks, but was caught by the Baoshan Camp.

  The sudden footsteps came from behind, and when I turned around, it was several company commanders who had arrived.

  Apart from the first company commander Cao Xinglong, the second company commander Chi Chengfeng and the machine gun company commander Niu Dagen, there are now also the third company commander Huang Baicheng, the fourth company commander Liao Yaoting, the fifth company commander Wang Qing and the sixth company commander Liu Zhijian. To say that the current strength of the Baoshan camp is almost equal to a National Revolutionary Army secondary regiment, but the weapons are seriously lacking, and the ammunition is even more severely lacking.

  Yue Weihan calmly asked: "Have the remaining enemies in the station been cleared?"

  "They've all been cleared out." Cao Xinglong, covered in blood, took a step forward and panted, "Following your orders, sir, whether it was the Japanese wounded who were empty-handed or the Japanese soldiers with guns, as long as they were still breathing, we finished them off! However, there was a Japanese woman that we didn't have the heart to kill. We thought about leaving her for you, sir, to have some fun?"

  "You're just a young whippersnapper who's worried about trivial things!" Yue Weihan said impatiently, "Be done with it!"

  "Hey, stop it." Chi Chengfeng shouted strangely beside him, "Damn it, those Japanese women are delicate and beautiful, looking like celestial beings. Commander, you don't want her, why not give her to the brothers instead? After all, she's just a Japanese woman. The little devils have ruined our sisters, can't we play with their women?"

  Yue Weihan's face immediately fell, and he scowled: "Chi Chengfeng, what did you just say?"

  Chi Chengfeng instinctively took a step back, no longer daring to look directly at Yue Weihan's murderous gaze. He whispered: "What's the big deal? She's just a Japanese woman, isn't she? If we've played with her, then so be it! Brothers have followed Commander Yue through life and death without ever frowning, shouldn't we reward ourselves with this Japanese woman?"

  "Fart! Don't forget we are soldiers!" Yue Weihan's face turned red with rage, bellowing, "Soldiers should have the demeanor of soldiers. Is messing around with women something a soldier should be doing?! I don't care about others, but in our Baoshan camp, no one is allowed to mess around with women, even if she's a Japanese woman!"

  Yue Weihan didn't pity the Japanese woman's reputation, but was thinking about future plans.

  If he always stayed in the National Army camp, to be honest, a few Japanese women didn't matter much. But if he joined the Eighth Route Army, this matter would have been extremely serious. Yue Weihan couldn't help but make early plans and absolutely couldn't wait until he really joined the Eighth Route Army, then suddenly try to restrain his subordinates' discipline by clinging to Buddha's feet, that would be a big problem.

  Afterwards, Yue Weihan said to Cao Xinglong: "Xinglong, go and kill those Japanese women!"

  Cao Xinglong hesitated: "Commander, she's a woman, I couldn't bring myself to do it. Besides, those Japanese women are really beautiful, it would be a waste to kill her. And she's a doctor too, why not keep her? When our regiment expands and we have our own field hospital, she can treat the brothers' wounds."

  "Doctor?" Yue Weihan furrowed his brow and asked again, "Really a doctor?"

  "She's absolutely a doctor." Cao Xinglong said affirmatively, "When we rushed into the enemy's field hospital, she was still performing surgery on an enemy soldier, and it was even open-heart surgery!"

  "Thoracic surgery!?" Yu Weihan was shocked as soon as he heard it. This was a high-difficulty operation at that time, not only did the surgeon need to have super psychological quality and medical skills, but also the required instruments and equipment were extremely valuable and complex. At this moment, Yu Weihan quickly turned his head to Hua Hanlin and said, "Hanlin!"

  Hua Hanlin hastily stepped forward two steps, stood up straight and said: "Yes!"

  "Hand over an important task to you, bring the devil's mobile hospital to me, remember, not a single pill or device is allowed to fall, take them all away! And on the way, I must keep it safe for me, even if your life is lost, this batch of instruments and equipment cannot be lost!"

  "Yes!" said Hua Hanlin, scratching his head and continuing, "But Commander, we don't have enough manpower in the guard squad."

  "Each company has its own people, you can choose whoever you want!" Yue Weihan said and then turned to Huang Baocheng and the other four men, "This is an order, whichever one you choose, each company must unconditionally release them!"

  "Yes!" Huang Baocheng and three others stood up straight with their chests out, responding loudly.

  The flower hamlin started to pick people from the front, and chose those who were strong and sturdy. In less than a meal's time, they picked more than 50 people, then together with the original dozen or so police guards, they rushed like a swarm of bees to the little devil's field hospital.

  Yue Weihan turned back and shouted: "What are you still dazing about? Waiting for death? Hurry up and organize the brothers to get on the car!"

  "Ah, get on? " Niu Dagen scratched his head and said with a smile, "But the station master, this is a Japanese train?"

  "Can't Japanese trains be ridden? I'm riding a Japanese train!" said Yue Weihan, "Less nonsense, get on the train quickly! Everyone get on the train!"
