Chapter 561 "Thunderstorm Plan" (23)

More than ten days ago, when Major General Matsumoto Zaozao, the commander of the 33rd Division, was in a prisoner-in-law camp, accidentally learned that all prisoners of war would be "gifted" to Jeju Island in the near future, a bold idea suddenly arose in Matsumoto Zaozao's mind.

After planning with the second class of deck, Matsumoto made the idea of ​​organizing prisoners of war to riot halfway to Jeju Island and seizing ships to return to the island was even more irresistible.

Therefore, in order to bring more prisoners of war into the riots, Matsumoto Zaozuo took advantage of another opportunity to let go of the news and fully convey their ideas to Takasugi Shinzuo, hoping that Takasugi Shinzuo could stand up and lead them to accomplish this feat.

Although through a series of personal experiences in the prisoner-of-war camp, even Takasugi Shinsaku felt that the bold actions of Matsumoto Saku and others were really likely to succeed. However, Takasugi Shinsaku still refused Matsumoto Saku. Not only that, Takasugi Shinsaku also spoke kindly and advised Matsumoto Saku. Never have too many inappropriate thoughts, so as not to harm others but to harm oneself, and to cause unnecessary harm to more compatriots.

But when he felt that his hard persuasion was destined to be useless, Takasugi Shinsaku sighed, he made such a guarantee to Matsumoto Sato:

Although I will not participate in your actions, you can rest assured that I will never betray you.

Now, as soon as he heard that Matsumoto Zaozuo and others had indeed started to act, Takasugi Shinsaku's heart suddenly became tight. Because he had already determined that the prisoner-of-war riots on the "Big Mosquito" would inevitably prompt the Red Army of the Celestial Dynasty to immediately carry out emergency response operations against prisoners of war, including him.

In Takasugi Shinsaku's diary, everything that happened on the "Crow" transport ship that night was recorded in detail.

After informing the news from the flagship of the Ryukyu fleet of the Red Navy, who was responsible for escorting, and learned that the Japanese prisoners of war on the "Big Mosquito" transport ship had rioted and had taken dozens of his first regiments of officers and soldiers on the ship as hostages, Cui Chenglin ordered the "Crow" to be anchored on the spot and immediately interrupted the supply of supper to the Japanese prisoners of war on the ship, and closed all prisoners of war cabins. The only exception was that there was no restriction on Takasugi Shinzuo who was still beside him at this time, as if Takasugi Shinzuo was not a Japanese prisoner of war at all.

In this way, Takasugi Shinsaku was fortunate to become the only "outsider" who witnessed this riot and counter-riot.

He heard the dark and stern face standing upright at the head of the ship like a stone pillar. In order to save the lives of dozens of his subordinates who had been hijacked, an almost gunpowder-smell-like quarrel broke out with the commanders of the Red Navy Ryukyu fleet. Hearing that General Cui unquestionably demanded that the commanders of the Red Navy must obey his opinions and immediately accept the conditions for the riot of Japanese prisoners of war on the "Big Mosquito".

Even at the end, General Cui Chenglin looked at him for a while before he said word by word, "If you also want to participate in this riot, my subordinates on this ship and I can also evacuate this ship immediately according to the conditions of your riots."

Takasugi Shinsaku was stunned.

But after being stunned for a while, Takasugi Shinsaku made his own choice:

The Red Army of the Celestial Dynasty is so kind that I don’t want to be an enemy of such a great army that can still give prisoners of war with human dignity! Never participate in the riot!

Takasugi Shinsaku not only said that, but also did so.

In order to express his feelings and to help General Cui, who would respect himself in such an emergency, he wrote a letter to advise his subordinates on the "Big Mosquito" to immediately give up his extremely stupid riots and never mislead himself or others.

However, the Japanese prisoners of war in the riot of Li Ling, did not lead the Celestial Red Army or Takasugi Shin-jo. Instead, they regarded all this kindness as weakness and could be bullied. Not only did they do their own thing, they forced the Red Army's escorts and sailors to leave one transport ship after another. In the end, they also had a tenacious spirit of not giving up or giving up. Even the "Crow" that had already expressed their attitude and would never participate in the riot.

Cui Chenglin and his subordinates are really going to leave the ship.

Just before Cui Chenglin was about to leave the ship, driven by a strong sense of responsibility, Takasugi Shinzuo, who had already finished writing this diary on August 3, personally handed his diary to Cui Chenglin, "General Cui, please be sure to bring my incomparable apology to Commander Chen General Tingxiang!"

Cui Chenglin also left the ship. But before the small boat carrying Cui Chenglin and others had time to get close to the nearest Red Navy warship anchored in the dark sea, the riot Japanese troops on the "Big Mosquito" actually fired the first shot at the Red Navy fleet on the sea.

Immediately afterwards, one transport ship after another that had been controlled by the Japanese army, there were flames flashing and gunfires burst into flames.

The unbearable Red Navy Ryukyu fleet finally stopped silent...

As a result, a maritime riot that was originally a Japanese prisoner of war, in China many years later, suddenly became a so-called "bureau case".

Some people claim that after extremely detailed and in-depth research, they have fully uncovered the true mystery of the Japanese prisoner-of-war riot.

According to these "elites" who are good at cutting off their ancestors, this maritime riot that eventually led to the souls of more than 40,000 Japanese prisoners of war returning to the sea was actually a tragedy directed and performed by the so-called elite army of China.

They even firmly believed that the Japanese prisoners of war riot on the so-called "Big Mosquito" transport ship, which eventually led to this great tragedy, actually never happened. It was just that the Chinese team responsible for the escort task was the most shameless, despicable, and invisible thing that the Chinese team, who was responsible for this escort mission, had created under the banner of Japanese prisoners of war. The fundamental purpose was only one, that is, to achieve the sinister purpose of completely eliminating all Japanese prisoners of war with various methods of covering up.

The conclusion is naturally clear that Lin Haifeng is a genuine executioner, and the so-called Chinese people's workers and peasants' armed forces under his direct leadership is simply a pure fascist army.

However, in the Japanese country, which was contemporary with these so-called elites, whether it was to die for more than 30,000 Japanese prisoners of war due to storms or to be loyal to more than 40,000 Japanese prisoners of war due to riots, they have always maintained the same sound for many years. The origin of this sound is the diary of Takasugi Shin, who has been treasured in the Japanese National History Museum.

Really speechless.
