[Biliang] left behind a few rookies who had just joined the army this year and stayed on the ship. The remaining officers and soldiers of the 40th were all out, especially the commander of the sergeant who was about to retire in the past few years, and was walking in front of the team with a long naval sword in his hand, constantly shouting to encourage his comrades.

If the Japanese naval non-commissioned officer is still unable to be promoted to a spy officer (the Japanese naval special officer, mainly a senior technician in the military, flight preparation, repair and medical care department on ships), he must retire and return home, break away from the privileged class of soldiers, and become an ordinary commoner.

Being lucky enough to teach those army idiots a lesson with your own hands before leaving the army is enough to make them boast about the rest of their lives, and it can be regarded as a beautiful end to this hard-working military life.

The sailors on the number [Biliang] were wearing autumn dark blue sailor uniforms, naval standard cowhide ammunition box, white integrated leggings, holding a thirty-five-year naval rifle issued by the Navy, and the long three-zero bayonet shone with dazzling cold light in the sun.

The Type 35 naval rifle is also the result of the Japanese army and navy competition. Because they are worried that the source channels of light weapons will be controlled by the army, the Japanese Navy has specially developed a Navy-style Type 35 rifle based on the Arisaka Thirty-year-old rifle, so that the army will not be able to occupy the navy's production share.

The Navy creatively used upright sights and dust covers on this rifle. This design was originally adopted to prevent the sand on the beach from entering the exposed bolt when sailors landed on the beach. As a result, this move was learned by the Army, which was deeply troubled by the sand and dust in northern China, and eventually led to the birth of the Type 38 large cover.

The Yangtze River gunboat rarely has the opportunity to land and fight, so it is only equipped with self-defense rifles. However, the [Shiduo] type was equipped with six Lewis machine guns, but this time it was removed by the sailors. Although there was no dedicated land gun stand, it was originally a light machine gun that could be carried and used by a single person. The naval machine gunner hung the machine gun on his chest with a sturdy canvas belt.

When the sailors of the [Biliang] arrived at the assembly site, they found that they were not the first group to arrive. At least more than 400 sailors had gathered on the spacious playground next to the Navy Pier.

Captain Akiyama of Matsushima, the armored cruiser of the Izumo, was the highest-ranking officer present, and took on the command task unswervingly. The naval colonel stood on the high-level leadership stage and looked very motivated.

"It's someone from the [Biliang] number. You are not late." Seeing the [Biliang] team arrive, a naval captain who Hasegawa doesn't know comes forward.

"I am Misaki Okada who has just been transferred to the Fleet General Staff as a staff officer. I have long wanted to find an opportunity to meet the captains, but I didn't expect that this was the case when I met for the first time. You are Captain Nobuta Hasegawa. I have heard of your daimyo for a long time, and I will ask you to take care of you in the future." This staff member named Okada looks very easy to get along with, at least he has a very enthusiastic attitude.

"Where is there, I will ask you to take care of you in the future, Captain Okada." Hasegawa hurriedly saluted the other party.

Although Hasegawa is much older than the other party, it is estimated that the graduation time is at least two different worlds greater than the other party, but the Japanese Navy not only pays attention to qualifications, but also depends on the connections behind it. If the guy who can climb to the position of the fleet's staff at this age is not particularly outstanding, then the backend is solid and hard. None of the above can be offended by Hasegawa, who is a captain of the inland gunboat.

"I heard that you are sick, how are you doing now? If you feel uncomfortable, don't force me." Okada expressed concern with a look of concern, as if he had known a friend for a long time.

"Wear tape, cute and stupid breasts. (Very good, no problem)" Hasegawa smiled on his face and gave a thumbs up to indicate that he was in good condition.

"That's good, I'm relieved. Please take your men to line up behind the [Anzhai] number, and the fleet commander will arrive immediately. At that position, I have to wait for other troops, so I'll leave first." Okada pointed out the position of the line to Hasegawa, and then saluted a military salute to say goodbye to the other party.

"Ah, it's okay, see you later." Hasegawa returned a military salute.

"What a kind of sir, Captain." The first mate said with emotion.

"Yes, I look like a very good person." Hasegawa nodded in agreement.

"Captain, your face looks very bad. Are you starting to have a fever again?" asked the first mate with concern.

"No problem, I can still hold on to this minor illness." Hasegawa shook his head and comforted his deputy.

The Japanese Navy's mobilization efficiency was really high. It took only a quarter of an hour to issue the order. The units that received the order arrived one after another. The number of combat troops gathered reached 592, which was almost enough to form an infantry brigade.

After all, they are not formally equipped Marines. Most of them are light infantry equipped with rifles. There are about 30 light and heavy machine guns of various types, more than 20 grenade launchers, and no heavy weapons such as artillery. However, in this kind of operation, there is no need to use any artillery.

Tanimoto was soon in the future. He took a motorbike on the [Prince Eugen] and landed directly at the riverside dock. With him, several German naval officers also arrived as German witnesses who were actively dealing with the crisis by the Japanese Navy.

"Everyone knows what to do." Tanimoto asked Akiyama with a serious expression on his face, holding a saber scabbard.

"Yes, your pride, everyone's morale is very high." Captain Akiyama replied respectfully.

"How many people are there?" asked the Chief of Staff.

"Five hundred and ninety-two people, Chief of Staff." Akiyama replied.

"Is it possible to get so many together? But it doesn't matter, especially the Marine Corps is about to arrive. Now we must solve this matter cleanly before the Army takes action. Do you understand?" Chief of Staff Ichise said loudly to the naval officers standing in front of him.

"Ha! I understand, Chief of Staff." The officers leading the team stood attentively and saluted the chief.

"Yaxi, then go out. Akiyama, your Izumo team is leading in front, and the remaining squadrons follow in the sequence of the fleet. Chief of Staff, you are with me." Tanimoto waved his hand and then turned his face to Colonel Von Hertz and said, "Captain Von Hertz, we're going out now."

"Yes, General." The German Navy Colonel held the naval ritual sword around his waist and nodded to Tanimoto.

Of course, the commander could not go on foot. The dock duty station transferred two high-end cars from somewhere, and they also had civilian licenses issued by the public concession. Eighty-mostly, the officer on duty was forced to force him and rushed directly to the street to block the road to requisition.

One of the 38-year-old Ford cars was customized in private, and I don’t know which god it was originally. However, the Japanese are quite unreasonable these days and have been doing a lot of things in the occupied areas. In the end, they can return them safely, so the owner should burn incense and fulfill their wishes.

Although there are no high-end cars on the dock, there are sufficient trucks carrying soldiers. The Navy has its own independent logistics system, which is incomparable to the army's group of rustic bulls driving mules.

The main reason is that most of the navy's equipment and supplies are very large and are really inconvenient for transportation of manpower and animal power. Shanghai was previously the base for the third fleet of the Japanese Navy, and the Japanese Navy had a complete fleet logistics system here, with a degree of automation far exceeding that of the army.

So the troops less than 600 people rushed towards Waibaidu Bridge in forty Nissan Model 80 trucks.

ps: Thank you for your support. The things at hand are almost done and will be updated in the original time period in the near future.
