Chapter 222: Their respective ambitions
When the two people came out, Colonel Evans Carlson announced that He Chi was a special person sent by the British allies to assist the US military.
Although He Chi's identity was not directly identified, the colonel asked others in the base to give He Chi the same respect and treatment as himself.
The few surrendered Japanese soldiers were directly assigned to the management of He Chi by the colonel, and other US military personnel were not allowed to interfere. Although it caused dissatisfaction in the small atmosphere, because there were only one thousand people on and off the Midway base There are many US troops, and Colonel Carlson is currently the highest-ranking person here. In addition, he has a special warrant from the president, so no one directly stands up to express dissent.
That night, in the rest room where the Japanese were separated, the soldiers who had been beaten during the day leaned on the bed dejectedly, and faint sounds of crying could be heard in the darkness.
Ka~ The lights in the room were turned on, and Iida Kojiro, wearing an American lieutenant uniform without collar patches, walked in radiantly. When he saw the remaining people, he couldn't help but get angry
"Baga! Why is this? Such a dejected look! Where is the dignity of the Japanese people?" The former private shouted in a superior tone.
"We traitors can really be regarded as Japanese nationals..." Ikeda, the oldest among the soldiers, murmured. At the age of forty, he was more attached to his family. When he surrendered, he was just reluctant to leave the country. His toddler daughter, and what happened in the cafeteria today touched him a lot.
They are already traitors to Japan, but Americans do not trust them either. The road ahead is dark and he can hardly see the future of reuniting with his daughter Miyoko.
"Traitor?! Who? Us?! Stop joking!" Kojiro suddenly became very excited, jumped to his feet and shouted, "The reactionary military headquarters that fooled the people is the real traitor, they are the ones who have no People from the future!” (Kojiro is still somewhat sensible and does not regard the emperor as a target)
"Everyone, think about it!" Kojiro gestured with exaggerated gestures. "The industrial capabilities of the United Kingdom and the United States are several times ours, and their resources are more than ten times ours. This does not include other countries that are still resisting fiercely."< br>
Then Kojiro brought out the theory he heard from He Chi during the day.
“Although the Japanese army has won temporarily, the United States can lose once, ten times, or a dozen times, but as long as Japan has a major defeat, the situation will take a turn for the worse!”
“Everyone. Think about it." The former apprentice put his hands on the table. On the face, he said in a bewitching tone, "If all Japanese men die in this war, will the Yamato nation still have a future?!"
At this point, the originally dejected soldiers raised their heads. At first, everyone felt that what Kojiro said made sense. (Actually, traitors are always looking for reasons for their actions, and Kojiro’s words just fit their mentality.)
"Everyone, we are the real patriots. We have a historical mission. We must rescue the Japanese people from the hands of the reactionary military." At this time, Kojiro was shaking his fists and was beginning to resemble a crazy national leader. resemblance.
"Minasang, when the reactionary military government is overthrown, we will stand beside the victors and return home as heroes."
Speaking of this, other soldiers began to have doubts in their eyes. The light went out, but Ikeda's expression suddenly darkened again, "But the Americans won't trust us either." "
"Who said we should stand by those short-sighted Americans?" Kojiro smiled scornfully and waved his hands again, "We must follow Mr. He Chi closely!"
"Lord He Chi is a senior overseas official of the British Empire!" Kojiro reported the shocking news.
Then the former private lowered his voice and said, "I just heard rumors that Mr. He is a close minister of the British royal family, the kind who can go to the palace with a sword! Those little minions here can't be compared with Mr. He."
"You have also seen what adults are capable of. The little Tanikaze is only It will fall into the hands of the adults in a blink of an eye. As long as we follow the footsteps of the adults, we will become prosperous and become masters! "
Speaking of this, Kojiro straightened up and faced the others! The man showed off his new officer uniform, then took out a stack of bills from his pocket and threw it on the table. "You see, this is all rewarded by Master He Chi. Although I am the only one who has obtained the official position, all of you have a share of the money."
"Look, this is embarrassing The U.S. dollar is a harder currency than gold, and it is not a military ticket inferior to the papyrus issued by the Japanese government!”
"Otani-kun, have you ever seen so much money when you were fishing in Hokkaido before you joined the army?!" Kojiro grabbed a handful of banknotes and looked at the young lookout. The other person shook his head vigorously and stared at the cash tightly. .
"This is just the beginning, in the future we will have more wealth! A better status! Follow me, follow His Highness He Chi, let's seek wealth for a lifetime!"
Full of incitement The sexual words incited the blood of other soldiers to boil. After putting aside the burden of being traitors, the morale of these people reached the highest point in recent days.
"Okay, if you want to live a good life, we have to show up in front of adults. Now we have an excellent opportunity..."
——
At the same time, in the US military dormitory, the second lieutenant tore off the gauze on his face and was fiddling with an M1911 pistol sinisterly.
The door opened, and Franklin Roosevelt Jr. walked into the room and sat on the bed nearby.
"John, do you plan to take revenge?" Roosevelt got straight to the point. After all, both families are "scene people" in the American political and business circles, and each understands the other too well.
The other party had a gloomy face and said nothing.
Roosevelt sighed, "I advise you to give up. The other party is not something you can provoke now."
"Why! Is he Churchill's confidant?! Or the Emperor's son-in-law?!" the young second lieutenant asked excitedly, his emotions still bursting out.
"Well...although it is unconfirmed news, you may be right..." Roosevelt then said carefully
"And even if you take revenge, you may not be able to get anything good. , If the rumors are true, the total number of Germans killed by him is enough for an air force brigade, plus a reinforced tank battalion."
"It's just a rumor used to fool people." Second Lieutenant. Still not convinced.
Roosevelt sighed, "Okay, even if these are all false, the colonel and senior officials have an important plan that needs his help to execute, and no one will let you provoke at this time."< br>
"What's the plan?"
"Sorry, it's top secret. I can't disclose it to you for the time being." Roosevelt refused, then patted the other party on the shoulder, "Don't think too much. Return to China after serving safely. Politics is where people like you and me should go.”
小. Franklin Roosevelt left, and the second lieutenant's fingernails holding the pistol turned white. He groaned in a low voice
"I, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, hereby swear, I will never be subjected to such a thing again in my life. An insult!”
