Anti-Japanese War: Li Yunlong dared to attack Taiyuan

"Are you Li Yunlong?"

When the Japanese lieutenant colonel heard Li Yunlong's self-introduction, his eyes began to light up and he couldn't help but look at Li Yunlong's head: "Do you know that your head is worth 300,000 yuan?"

"..."

Monk Wei, Zhang Dabiao, and even Zhao Gang drew their weapons. Li Yunlong smiled and looked at the Japanese major in front of him: "I know this, but it's a pity that I only have one head, otherwise I would take it to you to exchange for some money!"

"General Li Yunlong, you are quite humorous. I am Kotaro Kotaro, the staff officer of the 1th Regiment of the th Imperial Division!" (Note )

Li Yunlong had never heard of the name, but when he heard the Fourth Division, Li Yunlong's eyes narrowed slightly. No wonder this Japanese major came over and kept saying that business was not done this way. After hearing his name, his first reaction was that his head was worth 300,000 oceans.

It turned out to be the famous Osaka Division.

The Osaka Division, the Japanese Fourth Division, is also known as the "loser" division, but this division is definitely not a loser division. On the Pacific battlefield next year, this Japanese division will have its highlight moment and capture the Corregidor Fortress.

As one of the seventeen regular divisions of the Japanese, the Osaka Division is definitely combat-capable. However, what the Osaka Division is famous for is not their combat effectiveness, but their love of doing business.

Li Yunlong knew about the Osaka Division, and there were some records in some later materials. Although they were exaggerated a lot, many people were secretly trying to whitewash the Osaka Division. In any case, a Japanese army that invaded China must not be whitewashed. However, it is true that this army likes to do business.

In addition, in his previous life, when Li Yunlong was browsing some materials in the library, he found some foreign records about this division. They not only liked to engage in business, but also liked to deceive their superiors and subordinates, and corruption was rampant. (Note 2)

Note 1: The location of the Osaka Division after the First Battle of Changsha was not very clear. Some said it was transferred back to the four northeastern provinces, and some said it was stationed around Wuhan. I placed the Osaka Division directly in the northern Hebei region based on the fact that the division commander in the indelible number was named Yamashita Tomoyuki, because there was a man named Yamashita Tomoyuki who served as the commander of the 40th Division in .

Note 2: The author came across a Japanese memoir while traveling in Pattaya. It described some things that happened when the th Division was stationed here. It described how the th Division asked for as many supplies as possible from their headquarters and even fabricated some battle memories.

Chapter 158: Captain, are you selling your command knife?

The devils in front of him were from the regiment of the Osaka Division. Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes slightly. Things were getting interesting. He took out a pack of Sakura cigarettes from his pocket, then touched his pocket, was stunned for a moment, and then lowered his head to look carefully.

"Zhang Dabiao!"

"Have!"

"Give me the lighter!"

"Yes!"

Zhang Dabiao wanted to light a cigarette for Li Yunlong, but Li Yunlong snatched the lighter away and said, "Look at your character. Are you afraid that I will snatch your lighter?"

As he spoke, Li Yunlong lit a cigarette, put the lighter in his pocket and started to talk business: "Are you dissatisfied with the offer I gave you?"

"General Li Yunlong, we agreed on ten dollars for the bodies of the 13th Regiment's warriors, but you've suddenly raised the price and are asking for money even for their heads. As a businessman, this is extremely dishonest!"

Li Yunlong took a puff of his cigarette, glanced at Zhang Dabiao who was still staring at him eagerly, and said, "First of all, I'm not a businessman, and now the price is going up again. The head and the body are going to cost twenty dollars!"

"Eight..." Kotaro was about to yell, but seeing the soldiers of the independent column looking at him with ill intentions, he was afraid that he would become ten dollars, so he immediately changed his words and said, "General Li, if you insist on doing this, then I can only apologize for this exchange of bodies!"

Li Yunlong waved his hand and said, "You have no say. Go tell your regimental commander or division commander that I'm asking for twenty dollars for the head and body. You've offered thirty dollars for the body before, and now you're being stingy? By the way, tell them that I could have offered twenty dollars, or even thirty dollars, but I only want fifteen. Okay, go ahead!"

Kotaro Kota's face turned ugly. He wanted to curse, but he could only hold back: "This is not the way to do business. I will report everything that happened here to the captain!"

"go Go!"

Li Yunlong didn't try to stop him. As he watched the little devil leave, Old Xing came up to Li Yunlong and said, "Old Li, we went through so much trouble to transport the body here, and now you're not going to sell it? If we keep it for another two days, it might spread the plague!"

The others also looked at Li Yunlong, while Zhang Dabiao stared at Li Yunlong's pocket.

"Okay, don't worry, the Japs will definitely agree to our conditions, don't worry!"

"No way? The Japanese can agree to this?" Old Xing said uncertainly. He couldn't quite understand Li Yunlong's actions.

Li Yunlong glanced at the direction where Kotaro Kota had left in the distance and said, "Don't understand? That's right, you don't understand this Osaka Division."

Soon, Kota Kotera returned to the place where he met Zhang Dabiao, got on a three-wheeled motorcycle and rushed towards the large force behind.

At this time, a regiment of the Osaka Division was stationed here and did not move forward, but at the same time it was also on guard against sneak attacks by the Independent Column. After all, the Independent Column had just proved that it could destroy an entire regiment of the Japanese in an organized manner.

"idiot!"

Kotaro Kotera cursed out his anger and then thought about how to report the matter to the regiment commander. When Sanbengzi arrived at the regiment headquarters, the commander of the 8th Regiment of the 4th Division, Nakamiya Daxiang, was holding a piece of paper and constantly calculating.

After seeing Kotaro Kota come back, he immediately put away his notebook and said, "Kotaro, you're back. How did the discussion go?"

"Hayi, Your Excellency the Regiment Commander, the body of General Kazuo Shinozuka has been recovered, but the remains of the soldiers of the 13th Regiment who died in battle have not yet been negotiated!"

"Nani?"

Zhong Ming Daxiang looked at Kota Kota in surprise. He needed an explanation. After all, these were things that had been agreed upon in the telegram. How could they not have reached an agreement?

"The Chinese are being unreasonable and raising the price at the last minute. They're separating the heads and bodies of the Imperial Warriors. The heads are priced one way, the bodies are priced another, and they want fifteen dollars!"

"Fifteen dollars?"

Zhong Ming Daxiang glanced at the price calculated in his notebook, immediately closed it and said, "This price is absolutely not acceptable!"

"Ha Yi, that's what I said, but General Li Yunlong from China asked me to tell you that he could have offered twenty or thirty dollars, but he only wanted fifteen. That's so dishonest, Commander. I think this matter should be reported to headquarters and the deal should be stopped!"

When Nakamiya Daxiang first listened to Kota Kotera's report, he was a little angry, but after listening to the whole speech, his angry expression disappeared and he started to think instead.

"Your Excellency, the Captain?"

Zhong Ming Daxiang thought for a moment and said, "You said you met Li Yunlong?"

"Hayi!"

"Li Yunlong, whose head is worth three hundred thousand dollars?"

"Hayi!"

"I understand. You go out first. I will negotiate this matter myself!"

After thinking for a while, Zhongming Daxiang decided to go there in person. He smelled the scent of money from Li Yunlong's words just now.

"Sir, Captain, isn't this a bit too risky?"

Zhong Ming Daxiang immediately said, "Li Yunlong is a wanted criminal in the empire, yet he can come and negotiate in person. As the captain of the wing, am I more cowardly than him?"

"Hayi, His Excellency the Captain is wise!"

Soon Zhongming Daxiang found Li Yunlong with a few confidants and a new translator.

"General Li, could you please tell me in detail what you think?"

Li Yunlong looked at the Japanese colonel in front of him, raised his eyebrows slightly and immediately said: "You are the regiment commander? Can you take responsibility for this matter?"

"Yes, the headquarters has given me full authority. I didn't expect General Li Yunlong to speak Japanese so fluently!"

"Okay, my point is very simple, how much do you want me to quote?"

Zhong Ming Daxiang thought for a moment and held up three fingers. Then he shook his head and said, "Thirty dollars first, and then twenty-five dollars!"

"Sure, no problem! You handle the matter yourself. I just want cash. Take the money and leave. How about we trade at this price in the future?"

Zhong Ming Daxiang immediately smiled and said, "No problem, but General Li Yunlong, we don't have that much money right now. When we came here, we only brought the ransom of 2,500 corpses of imperial warriors, which only amounts to 25,000 yuan. Can you wait a moment while I go and raise the funds?"

"You can use supplies to offset the remaining money. I need some things. I wonder if you are willing to sell some?"

Zhong Ming Daxiang thought for a moment and said, "General Li Yunlong helped me complete the mission so much, and I am grateful to him. Besides the heavy weapons, what other supplies does General Li Yunlong want?"

"Will you sell your command knife?"

"Oh? As far as I know, General Li Yunlong should have quite a few. Do you need more?"

"Of course, you know, many generals in our country like your command swords, especially the captured ones!" Li Yunlong said meaningfully.

"I see! I understand. After all, we also hope to seize your general's Zhongzheng Sword and some medals."

"Five hundred oceans?"

"General Li Yunlong, you should know that in our army, the colonel's sword is different from the swords of other lieutenant officers. It costs at least five thousand dollars!"

"one thousand!"

"four thousand!"

"..."

"two thousand!"

"make a deal!"

A 10,000-word update is here! It's a new month, and I'm begging for five-star reviews and some free gifts. I wish everyone all the best in December. I'm wishing everyone a happy new year in advance, and I'm begging for some free gifts and five-star reviews! ~

Chapter 159: I made money, but it seems I spent it again (suddenly added)

"Besides that, I need a gas mask, which is what you soldiers carry."

Li Yunlong pointed at the guard behind Zhongming Daxiang and said with a smile.

"Respirators? No problem. They're twenty dollars each. How many do you need?"

"Twenty dollars is too much. I can only give you five dollars."

"General Li Yunlong, you may not know that we don't have many respirators in our army, and it's difficult to replenish them. They'll cost at least fifteen dollars, and that's the base price!"

"But you can apply to the logistics department. Twelve oceans, that's the highest price I can offer!"

"Okay, this price is only for this one transaction. From now on, it must be fifteen dollars each!"

"No problem. I want two thousand. Do you have any? Samurai swords and gas masks. If you pay me another 11,050 dollars, you can take all the bodies of the 13th Regiment away!"

"Of course, I'll let them prepare now!"

"You are a shrewd businessman. If there is a corpse next time, I will trade with you. Or at this price. Do you want to smoke?"

Li Yunlong took out his Sakura cigarettes. Zhong Ming Daxiang's eyes lit up when he saw them. "General Li, how many Sakura cigarettes do you have left?"

"This? Old Xing, Old Xing, how many cigarettes of this brand were seized?"

Xing Zhiguo was stunned at this time. Although he could not understand the Japanese language, he saw that Li Yunlong and Zhongming Daxiang seemed to be chatting very happily. Occasionally, Li Yunlong would blurt out some numbers. Although he did not understand what the numbers were, it seemed that Li Yunlong and this Japanese colonel had reached an agreement.

"We seized six complete cartons of Sakura brand cigarettes, each containing two hundred packs. We also seized over four hundred complete packs of cigarettes, totaling one thousand six hundred and forty-seven. Four hundred and forty-seven of these have been distributed as rewards to meritorious soldiers. We haven't counted the unpacked packs."

Xing Zhiguo immediately took out a notebook and reported the seizure to Li Yunlong.

"One thousand two hundred packs, aren't these cigarettes produced by you? Do you need them?"

"Of course, these are hard currency in our army. Being able to smoke Sakura brand cigarettes is a very happy thing for us. Besides cigarettes, did you seize any sake? I'm willing to buy that too..."
