Chapter 377 The Japanese army’s vicious intentions!
Cun Yunsheng really didn't expect that Chen Shaokuan would come with the drawings.

To be honest, when Chen Shaokuan proposed the Kuo Guang aircraft carrier, he was indeed a little overwhelmed.

I didn’t expect that this legendary escort aircraft carrier is actually real.

Looking at the drawings, Cun Yunsheng could be sure that they were similar to the pictures he had seen before.

However, the ship in front of us is still a semi-finished product.

"Captain Chen, what are you doing?" Cun Yunsheng couldn't figure out the other party's intention for a while.

"I heard that you have a powerful navy under your command?" Chen Shaokuan did not take back the drawings, but looked at Cun Yunsheng, his meaning was very clear.

Don't deny it.

"It's not mine, it's the Siamese navy." Cun Yunsheng corrected.

"It's all the same. What I want to know is, are you still short of naval officers?" Chen Shaokuan directly stated his purpose.

Shortage of naval officers?
How can it not be lacking?

What he lacks most now is naval officers.

You know, he spent countless efforts to deal with these naval officers.

Try every possible means.

We only got this few people.

Moreover, the warships are not fully staffed now.

But he was very curious why Chen Shaokuan wanted to find him?
wrong!

This means he wants to come directly to me.

"Of course it is needed. Commander Chen, are you going to come to me for help? My temple is too small to accommodate a big Buddha like you." Cun Yunsheng joked.

"Is your temple still small?" Chen Shaokuan said unhappily.

"How many of my people have you poached? Do you really think I don't know? Without my consent, could you have poached them?"

Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng did not refute because he knew that what the other party said was true.

indeed!

Without the other party's nod, no one will come even if he wants to poach people.

After all, the Fujian faction is still very united.

"Don't worry, I won't try to seize control of your navy. I see you've set up a naval school? Specially for training sailors? How about I become the principal? I'm too old, and I won't be able to command the navy." Chen Shaokuan took the initiative to take on a position for himself.

Seeing this, Cun Yunsheng didn't know what to say.

After all, people have said so, what else can he say.

"Commander Chen, you are too polite. Actually, I am too busy to handle everything right now. I still need you to pay more attention to the navy." Cun Yunsheng didn't say it so firmly.

"Okay, tell me if you have anything. As for the officers you are short of, I will send them to you as soon as possible. They are all experienced sailors. It's a pity that there are no warships, otherwise the Japanese would be so rampant." Chen Shaokuan said indignantly.

Cun Yunsheng didn't say anything about this, as he knew the other party's connections.

They said it would be delivered as soon as possible and there would be no delay.

In fact, Cun Yunsheng was also keeping an eye on the Northeast Navy.

However, it may be quite difficult to convince them.

However, Cun Yunsheng believed that as the navy's strength increased, these people would definitely come.

"Okay, then I'll leave the navy to you." Cun Yunsheng said, and then looked at the drawings again.

"As for this cargo ship, can it be towed over here? Let's see if we can complete the modification as quickly as possible."

"No problem, leave these to me." Chen Shaokuan nodded.

Since he said that he was giving Cun Yunsheng a great gift, he naturally couldn't just talk nonsense.

…………

On the other side, on the island of Kalimantan, the Japanese army had already panicked.

Originally, they thought they could rely on the beach defense line to kill the Nanyang Task Force, but they didn't expect the enemy's firepower to be so strong that it directly blew the beach defense line to pieces.

Seeing that Bandar Seri Begawan was about to fall into the heavy encirclement of the South China Sea Task Force, he was very anxious.

Bandar Seri Begawan was not a military fortress, so it did not have tall city walls and no terrain that was easy to defend but difficult to attack. If the Japanese army wanted to defend it, they could only rely on trenches and fortifications to block the Nanyang Task Force.

But unfortunately, the Japanese army's tactics were completely useless against the powerful firepower of the Nanyang Task Force.

Heavy artillery, planes, and warships took turns firing. Even the strongest fortifications could not withstand such fierce fire.

Therefore, the so-called defensive tactics of the Japanese army were declared bankrupt.

So at this time in the command center, all the officers advised Lieutenant General Shite Izuna to escape immediately and leave the city of Bandar Seri Begawan to the South Seas Task Force, while the commander of the indigenous army advised Lieutenant General Shite Izuna not to abandon them.

Yes!

After the Japanese army took over Kalimantan Island, they also began to learn and train the Imperial Army.

And these natives are part of the Imperial Army.

As a result, now that the Japanese army was about to escape, these natives naturally panicked.

But they knew that once the Japanese troops ran away.

The fate that awaits them then will not be good.

Upon hearing this, Vice Admiral Shite Izuna was very conflicted. He wanted to escape, but he didn't know where to escape. Without the cover of the navy, even if he continued to move south, the final result would probably be a disastrous defeat.

If we retreat now, we may be able to set up defenses in advance.

But if we don't withdraw now, there will definitely be no good results.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded: "Don't worry, sir. I have a plan that will definitely make the Nanyang Task Force dare not attack."

This sentence was like a thunderclap in the command center. Everyone was so surprised that they fell silent. They all looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person who spoke was a Chinese man named Lin Fei.

After the Japanese army occupied Kalimantan Island, they immediately surrendered to the Japanese army.

In fact, at the beginning, Lin Fei's family was just a small family in Bandar Seri Begawan.

The road to rise was to rely on the Dutch.

Therefore, his family has a very bad reputation in the entire Chinese circle, but the Lin family doesn’t care. As long as they hold on to the Dutch, their Lin family will prosper.

Later, after the Japanese army occupied Kalimantan, in order to ensure the honor of the family.

Lin Fei led the Lin family to join the Japanese army.

Relying on the Japanese army, the Lin family's power has developed very rapidly in the past two years.

result?

Now that the South Seas Task Force has arrived, if Kalimantan is lost, their family will definitely be doomed.

So whether it was for the benefit of his family or his personal future, he had to help the Japanese army defeat the Nanyang Task Force, otherwise he would definitely die miserably based on what he had done. Hearing that Lin Fei had a plan, Lieutenant General Shite Izuna hurriedly asked, "Major General Lin, I wonder what clever plan you have."

"Sir, why don't we gather all the Chinese in the city and send them outside the city to serve as human shields. I believe that the Nanyang task force will not dare to attack." Lin Fei said with a cruel smile on his face.

Upon hearing this, many people's eyes lit up. Yes, if the Chinese were used as human shields, those people in the Nanyang Task Force would definitely not dare to open fire and attack the city.

This plan is quite good, at least Lieutenant General Shite Izuna is very satisfied with it.

The only thing that made him feel a little scared was that Lin Fei was so cruel that he directly betrayed all his compatriots in the city.

But these have nothing to do with him. What he has to do now is to block the enemy's attack.

As he thought about it, Lieutenant General Shitsugu fell into deep thought, and the others hurriedly tried to persuade him.

"Your Excellency, this is a good plan."

"Yes, those Chinese are indeed very qualified cannon fodder."

"That's right, Mr. Commander, Lin-san's suggestion is indeed good."

Not only did other officers persuade them, but even the native officers thought this plan was good.

He was even considering whether he should take this opportunity to plunder the Chinese, after all, he had long been coveting the wealth of the Chinese.

After all, these Chinese people are really rich, so will anything go wrong?

At worst, I can hide on an island and live out my life. If that doesn't work, I can escape to some other place.

He didn't believe that the other party could still find him?
"Okay, we can use some conspiracies and tricks to trick the Chinese out of their homes, and then gather them all in the square, and then force them out of the city at gunpoint." Lieutenant General Shitsugu Jingzuna only wanted to survive at the moment and didn't care about so many things. He immediately agreed to the plan proposed by Lin Fei.

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

As long as they agree, it will be easy, especially for other officers who have ulterior motives and are thinking about whether they can make more money this time.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Japanese army had little hope of holding the city.

After all, the opponent's firepower is too strong.

Taking in everyone's expressions, Lieutenant General Shitsuna said with a smile, "Yo, no more words, act immediately. I'll give you one hour. I want to see no less than one thousand Chinese outside the city."

"Hay."

…………

On the other side, the Siamese Division of 20,000 people, who had been trained by the Japanese 4th Division, had completed the landing.

"Urgent telegram!" Long Wenjian, who was discussing what to do at the temporary command center, frowned immediately when he heard the word "urgent telegram".

"Read!" Long Wenjian said.

"Order your troops to launch an attack immediately. The Chinese in Bandar Seri Begawan are being purged. Cun Yunsheng!" After reading the telegram, the communications staff was also shocked.

The Chinese in Bandar Seri Begawan are being cleansed.

They didn't know yet, but Cun Yunsheng actually knew?
This news is really well-informed, isn't it?
At least Long Wenjian was still very surprised, but he quickly came to his senses.

"Call back and execute immediately."

……

On the other side, in Bandar Seri Begawan, the agents of the Military Investigation Bureau were hiding in a house. A man in his twenties asked with a worried look on his face: "Stationmaster, when will the reinforcements arrive? I see that the Japanese army has already started a large-scale search."

"Don't worry, reinforcements will arrive soon, just wait a little longer." The man called the stationmaster was also very anxious. When he learned that the Japanese army was going to use the Chinese as human shields, he immediately used a spare small radio station to contact the headquarters, requesting the troops outside the city to launch an immediate attack to rescue the Chinese.

He has become familiar with the local Chinese community and knows that many Chinese still favor them.

If we can rescue them, I believe taking over Kalimantan will be extremely smooth.

It was based on this consideration that he used the radio to tip off others.

Who would have thought that the Japanese army was now like crazy, not caring at all and would arrest anyone they saw as a Chinese.

So he could only hide with his men.

But they all know that they can hide for a while, but not forever.

I guess it won’t be long before it’s found.

While they were still waiting for reinforcements, the Japanese soldiers in the city announced directly through loudspeakers: "All Chinese men and women are being recruited to go out of the city to dig trenches, including the elderly and children. All Chinese are requested to go to the registration office to sign up immediately."

The Chinese in the city also knew that the purpose of digging trenches was to fight against the Nanyang Task Force. The Chinese were inclined towards Nanyang and naturally would not go out of the city to dig trenches. When Lieutenant General Shite Jinggang saw that no Chinese signed up, he became furious.

"Baga, you have no shame. Order: All troops in the city, bring the Imperial Army with you, and arrest people from house to house."

"If anyone resists, they will be shot on the spot and their property will be confiscated." Lieutenant General Shite Jingzuna was not a soft-hearted person. He knew that he had to give these people certain benefits.

Especially those Imperial Army, otherwise how could the other party willingly accept their orders?
The Imperial Army who received the order were immediately excited. They had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time and were so excited that they roared and rushed towards the Chinese residential area.

In their impression, Chinese people are all timid and fearful. As long as they put a gun to their heads, they will come out obediently and hand over their money and women, and then they can have fun. But after rushing in, they find that the Chinese are different from before.

A Japanese soldier brought a squad of the Imperial Army to a Chinese residence. After receiving the signal, a native kicked open the door in a show of force, and the natives behind him rushed in.

result?

As soon as he entered, he was attacked. Five or six sticks hit him on the head. He fell to the ground instantly and lost consciousness.

The natives and the Japanese army were now horrified. The Chinese actually dared to resist. The Chinese, who were usually more docile than pigs, actually dared to resist.

This is simply incredible!

They actually dared to resist?
This completely angered the Japanese soldier leading the team, as he had received an order to capture at least 20 Chinese.

These Chinese people are now very troublesome, which naturally makes him furious.

He raised his rifle and prepared to shoot, but at this moment two Chinese people quickly ran towards the Japanese soldier, picked up a kitchen knife, and chopped off the Japanese soldier's head and body. He couldn't believe it before he died, that these Chinese people dared to resist.

Are they crazy?

Aren’t you afraid of retaliation from the imperial army later?
In fact, what happened here is just a microcosm of the entire Bandar Seri Begawan. Throughout Bandar Seri Begawan, the Chinese no longer have faces that are at the mercy of others, no longer have helpless tearful eyes, no longer have wailing cries, all they have is resistance, resistance, and resistance again.

They all knew that if they didn't resist at this time, death would be waiting for them!

When facing death, a strong will to resist will naturally erupt.

In addition, Cun Yunsheng had sent people to infiltrate before, and many of the Chinese who resisted in Bandar Seri Begawan were actually guerrillas.

So far, the effect seems to be quite good.

In fact, although Chinese people are kind, kindness does not mean weakness and can be bullied.

After all, the development of Chinese civilization to this day, this vast land was not acquired through kindness, but was purchased with blood.

Under the leadership of these guerrillas, after they knew the consequences of the Japanese army forcing them to leave the city, the courage and strength in their bones broke out completely.

The fighting power of the united Chinese people should not be underestimated.

Equipped with certain weapons, they fought back and forth with the Japanese army, and more importantly, their morale was greatly boosted.

Lieutenant General Shite Jingzuna was furious when he heard the news. He slammed the table and yelled frantically, "Baga, call all the troops back and kill all these Chinese. Don't spare any of them."
