Chapter 406 Tanks Entered Pujiang
After some encouragement, the brothers lined up in an orderly manner and drove all kinds of large vehicles out. There was a special cordon on the left side of the door, and a large row of cars were parked there. All these people were from the Pujiang Municipal Government, hoping that Li Shaoyi would think twice before acting.
Unfortunately, Li Shaoyi has already made the decision and the foreigners no longer care. You guys actually come here to hinder him and report to Jinling, asking them to send a powerful person to scare the Japanese. Now that Li Shaoyi has come to do the job, you guys are standing in the way again.
Li Shaoyi really didn't know what to say to these cowards who were afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind. He could only avoid meeting them. Out of sight, out of mind. If he listened to them talking for a while, Li Shaoyi might have to practice his fists on their faces, and it would be bad if he told others about it.
"Hey, little brother, please give us some space. We're doing this for the good of all the people of Pujiang. If a fight breaks out, this place will instantly become a battlefield. You police officers can't handle that. If your Commander Li leaves for the north, we'll have to clean up the mess."
A guy in a suit and tie said anxiously that no one knew what position this guy held in the city government, but seeing that everyone else was led by him, he should be a high-ranking official.
"Sir, have you ever been to the battlefield? If you haven't, I suggest you buy a plane ticket and go to the north. We killed at least 80,000 Japanese, if not 100,000. Do you think our Commander Li will just go back north? This is the first time we meet, and I don't blame you for saying that. But if you say something like that again next time, don't blame me for being ruthless."
The patrolman on duty also came from the battlefield. If Pujiang did not need outstanding personnel, he would have been a deputy company commander in the north long ago. This is all the result of following Li Shaoyi.
In the eyes of these people, Li Shaoyi is like a living Bodhisattva who saves people from suffering. He is the idol in the hearts of all of them and the leader they must be loyal to. You guy, instead of going to fight the Japanese, come here to gossip. If you hadn't been ordered from above to be more restrained in Pujiang, I would have punched you long ago.
The government official in a suit wanted to say something, but was immediately stopped by the people next to him. Looking at the expressions of the patrolmen around him, he decided to keep his mouth shut. These people were already restrained enough. If he said something similar again, someone might lose control and beat up your official before fighting the Japanese.
"Tank...tank, that's a tank..."
Just as the government official was organizing his words and trying to persuade the police again, someone behind him started stuttering.
Some people in this crowd have studied abroad and have naturally seen tanks, but compared with the tank in front of them, it seems that those foreign tanks are inferior.
Although the M24 tank is a light tank, it was not released until seven or eight years later, so its design is very advanced. Moreover, it is the absolute leader among all light tanks in the world. In Longguo, even tanks from twenty years ago are rare things, let alone the one in front of us.
"Oh my God, the tanks actually reached Pujiang."
Some people took off their glasses and wiped them vigorously, as if there was something dirty on them. They couldn't believe what they saw. It turned out that Li Shaoyi was really well prepared. They only saw armored vehicles that day, but today even tanks came out. Hongkou was definitely not able to be defended.
"Twelve..."
When the first tank came out, some people kept counting. When they counted to the twelfth, many people were so happy that they almost fainted.
"Tanks are coming out of that gate on the north side, and there are more than a dozen of them coming out from that side. These little Japs are going to have a hard time today. If they dare to resist, our Marshal Li will beat the shit out of them."
"Hahaha."
The young man's humorous remarks amused everyone around him. Some young people who had originally stood in the government crowd now sided with the common people. They had originally come to persuade Li Shaoyi, but they had never seen so many tanks and armored vehicles in their lives.
Perhaps starting from Li Shaoyi's leadership, we can really live a good life. At least this is a scene that we never dared to imagine before.
Those who were celebrating could also see the eyes of some foreigners who were standing at the back of the crowd. Because Westerners were tall and strong, there was no need for them to go to the front; they could see clearly from the back.
At this moment, there was a layer of frost on these people's faces. Although they were going to deal with the Japanese today, when these tanks appeared in Pujiang, they also knew who was in charge here. In the future, they would definitely not be able to do things the same way as before. If they made the people in the Pujiang Police Department unhappy, these tanks might target them.
Seeing the expressions on the foreigners' faces, the Chinese people were all elated. Some even deliberately spoke to them, asking if they had seen the tanks clearly. The demonstration was clearly intended. The police station was equipped not only with armored vehicles but also with over twenty tanks. This was probably unique in the world.
Although some foreigners were angry and wanted to wave their fists and beat up the Chinese in front of them as they did in the past, after all, from the moment they got off the boat, their foreign predecessors told them that the people on this land were weak and you could do whatever you wanted.
They have always remembered this sentence, but after living in Pujiang for so many years, they have to adapt to life again.
The concession authorities did not say it explicitly, but some rumors were spread, asking all foreigners in Pujiang to abide by the law. If they committed some of the same lawless acts as before, the Pujiang Police Department might arrest them. The result of the negotiations between the two sides was that if there was sufficient evidence, the Pujiang Police Department could arrest people through the Hongkou Police Department, so no matter which concession you hid in, you might be caught.
Although some foreigners say that they are not afraid and want to live their lives as before, these people are just talking big. Looking at what they have done in the past few days, we know that they are already afraid. Now when they see the tanks going out in the newspaper, they may understand better what they should do.
