Red Moscow

Chapter 2382

Emperor Kant's plane hovered over Fengtian Airport for more than two hours. Seeing that the plane was almost out of fuel, the pilot received permission from the ground tower to land. He quickly turned to Yasuo Yoshioka, who was sitting behind him, and said, "Your Excellency, the airport allows us to land."

Yoshioka Yasunao originally received an order from Qin Hikosaburo to take Emperor Kant back to Fengtian by plane this morning. After reaching Fengtian, he had to wait until the ground tower agreed to land before he could land at the airport. He didn't think too much about it at the time, but now that he saw the plane circling in circles over Fengtian, he couldn't help but feel terrified. He even thought of the possibility that Emperor Kant had lost use value to the empire, and maybe the Kwantung Army wanted to cause a plane crash to wipe out Emperor Kant in a plane crash.

To Yoshioka Yasuo, the death of Emperor Kant was not much different from crushing a bug. However, if he were to be buried for Emperor Kant, he would be reluctant to do so. When he heard the pilot say that the ground tower said it was okay to land, he was overjoyed and quickly ordered: "Hurry, land quickly. If we don't land, the plane will run out of fuel."

Watching the plane lower its altitude and aim for the runway, not only Yoshioka Yasuo beamed with joy, but even Emperor Kant, who was sitting behind, breathed a sigh of relief and finally landed safely. However, after all this trouble, his original idea of ​​taking the wealthy Li Yuqin with him to the island country has been forgotten by him.

But after their plane landed, the door did not open for a long time. Not to mention Emperor Kant, even Yoshioka Yasuo couldn't keep his temper. He asked the pilot: "What's going on? Why don't you open the hatch?"

“Your Excellency,” the pilot replied helplessly, “the order we received is that after the plane lands, everyone must stay in the cabin and are not allowed to leave, otherwise the airport guards will fire on our plane.”

"Baga, what is going on?" Hearing the pilot's answer, Yoshioka Yasushi couldn't help but become anxious: "Why are we not allowed to leave the cabin? Contact the airport tower immediately. I want to ask them what happened. ."

However, before the pilot could contact the tower, the roar of a huge aircraft engine was heard in the air. Hearing this sound, Yasuo Yoshioka had a look of astonishment on his face. He did not expect that there would be a large number of aircraft just after he landed. Arrive at Fengtian Airport.

"Your Excellency, General," the pilot glanced at the group of transport planes in the distance that were descending in preparation for landing, then turned to Yoshioka Yasuo and said, "It seems that just as the airport tower said, a large number of combat aircraft are about to take off and land at this airport. Not letting us leave the plane should be for our safety."

This explanation from the pilot made Yoshioka Yasuo feel much more at ease. He thought it was a plane flying from other cities to transport supplies to Fengtian, and he felt much more at ease. He said to the pilot: "I'm going to take a nap. It's not too late to call me when you can leave the plane."

 “Hi!” the pilot replied.

　　When Yoshioka Yasuo returned to the cabin, Emperor Kant personally came over and asked him: "Yoshioka-kun, what is going on? Our plane has landed, why haven't we opened the door yet?"

Yoshioka Yasu glanced at Emperor Kant and said in a disdainful tone: "Didn't you see that a large number of transport planes from the empire were landing? If you were to get off the plane at this time, who would be responsible if something happened? You It’s better to hurry back to your seat and I’ll let you know when you can get off the plane.”

Emperor Kant was originally a person without any ideas. After hearing what Yoshioka Yasuo said and seeing transport planes landing one after another on the runway in the distance, he felt that what the other party said should be the truth, so he returned to his seat honestly. , patiently waiting for the moment to get off the plane.

When officials on the plane saw groups of planes landing, they couldn't help but look outside through the porthole glass to see what supplies were being transported.

Soon, an officer saw a group of soldiers disembarking from a stopped transport plane. At first, he didn't pay attention, thinking they were reinforcements brought from other cities. After he saw clearly the clothes of the soldiers and the weapons in their hands, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "The Russians are... The Russians! The Russians are coming!”

Yasunao Yoshioka, who had just closed his eyes, was woken up by the official. He stood up angrily, came to the official, raised his hand and slapped him with a big slap in the face: "Baga, you are screaming here!" What?"

The beaten official covered his face and said tremblingly: "Advisor, please take a look quickly. The people coming off those transport planes are all Russians."

"This is impossible." Yoshioka Yasushi didn't even believe a single punctuation mark in the official's words. He roared: "Don't forget, this is the airport in Fengtian. There is a powerful air defense firepower network around the airport. If It’s really the Russian planes that have arrived, why don’t our anti-aircraft fires fire?”

"Your Excellency, Advisor." The official said with a sad face: "I don't know why the anti-aircraft fire did not fire. But the soldiers who got off those transport planes were indeed Russians. I will not be mistaken about this. If you don't believe it, you can See for yourself."

Hearing what the official said, Yoshioka Yasuo looked out the window angrily, and happened to see a group of Soviet commanders and fighters with guns walking towards the location of their plane. He thought he was being deceived and mistook the Kwantung Army soldiers for Russians, so he rubbed his eyes vigorously and looked carefully again. Soon, he discovered that he was not wrong. The group of soldiers walking towards the plane were the Russians he was afraid of.

“What’s going on?” Seeing this situation, Yasuo Yoshioka couldn’t help shouting: “Why are there Russians at our airport? Why didn’t our anti-aircraft firepower fire when the Russian plane landed?”

Seeing Yoshioka Yasuo standing in the middle of the cabin and roaring, the officials sitting around were all silent, no one dared to say anything, for fear that if they opened their mouths, Yoshioka Yasuo would slap him in the face. When Emperor Kant heard that a group of Soviet commanders and fighters were walking towards the plane, he was immediately trembling with fear. While trembling, he pretended to be calm and said: "I cannot be a prisoner of the Russians, I cannot be a prisoner of the Russians... "

Emperor Kant was so scared when he heard the Soviet commanders and soldiers coming, because he knew that after the Tsar was overthrown, his whole family was killed. If he, the last emperor, fell into the hands of the Soviets, he might not end well.

"Xiao Sun!" Emperor Kant called the name of the attendant beside him and said with a trembling voice: "Where is the poison prepared by the consultant for me? Give it to me quickly. I must not be a prisoner of the Russians, otherwise I will fight with them. The Tsar will die."

The attendant known as Xiao Sun quickly replied: "Your Majesty, we set off in a hurry and didn't take him with us."

As soon as Xiao Sun finished speaking, Pu Yi slapped him in the face, and at the same time cursed fiercely: "What use do I want from you if you have no use for it!" After saying that, he punched Xiao Sun. Hit and kick. Xiao Sun, the last **** in China, could only curl up into a ball with his head in his hands and endure the beatings from his master in silence.

Not long after, there was a heavy banging on the cabin door.

The pilot quickly turned his attention to Yoshioka Yasunao and waited for his order whether to open the door or not. Yoshioka Yasunao knew that it was the Soviet army who was breaking down the door outside. If he had a grenade in his hand at this moment, he would definitely detonate the grenade without hesitation and let everyone on the plane die together with him. But now he only has a command knife and a pistol with only a few bullets. It is obviously impossible to blow up the plane. In desperation, he could only nodded to the pilot and motioned for the pilot to open the door.

 The pilot, who received instructions from Yoshioka Yasuo, stood up and walked to the cabin door, opened it forcefully, then stepped aside and raised his hands.

The next moment, five or six heavily armed Soviet soldiers rushed in from outside the plane, led by a second lieutenant. He shouted at the people in the cabin: "You have been captured by the Soviet Red Army, all raise your hands!"

　　Although he shouted these words in Russian, and no one on the plane understood Russian, everyone raised their hands without any knowledge.

The second lieutenant who took the lead walked to the middle of the cabin and looked around. He saw that most people were wearing suits. He really couldn't tell who his arrest target was. He could only ask loudly: "Who is Emperor Kant?! Stand up for me!"

Since there was no one on the plane who could understand Russian, his shouting this time was in vain. Everyone looked at him blankly, not knowing what he was talking about.

 Fortunately, when the vanguard battalion boarded the plane, Sokov specially arranged for them a translator who knew Japanese and Chinese. At this moment, the translator, protected by two soldiers, also boarded the plane. He came to the second lieutenant and asked politely: "Comrade second lieutenant, what can I do for you?"

The second lieutenant glanced around the cabin, and then said to the translator: "Ask them, who is Emperor Kant?"

The translator nodded, and then translated the second lieutenant's words into Japanese: "Who among you is Emperor Kant?" He was afraid that everyone would not understand, so he repeated it in Chinese.

　　Hearing that the Soviet army came to see Emperor Kant, the officials did not say a word, but they couldn't help but cast their eyes on Emperor Kant next to him, who was shaking like chaff. The Soviet second lieutenant quickly locked the position of Emperor Kant through everyone's eyes, then turned around and ordered two soldiers standing not far away: "Take him down!"

After the second lieutenant took Emperor Kant off the plane, the regiment leader, Lieutenant Colonel Baryshev, happened to come over. Seeing a man in a suit next to the second lieutenant, he asked tentatively: "Is this the Emperor Kant we want to arrest?"

“Yes, Comrade Commander.” The second lieutenant replied excitedly: “He is the Emperor Kant we want to arrest.”

"Very good, very good." After saying "very good" twice, Baryshev raised his hand and patted the second lieutenant on the shoulder. "After we capture Fengtian, you will receive a medal that belongs to you." Then he He called the telegraph operator again, "Send a telegram to the division headquarters, saying that the vanguard battalion of our regiment has successfully occupied Fengtian Airport and captured Emperor Kant."

Ye Liaoming, who was anxiously waiting for the news at Solon Airport, was overjoyed after receiving the telegram from Baryshev. He said to Afunin emotionally: "Comrade Commander, good news, the leading battalion of the 15th Regiment has been Successfully captured Fengtian Airport and successfully captured Emperor Kant."

"This is indeed exciting good news." Afuning smiled and nodded, and then asked Ye Liaoming: "General Ye Liaoming, should you make this call to the commander, or should I make it?"

Ye Liaoming thought for a moment and felt that although he could report such good news to the headquarters himself, the Army Commander was in front of him at the moment. It would not be appropriate to report beyond him, so he smiled and said: "Comrade Commander, Naturally, you called and reported to Comrade Commander."

 “Okay, let me fight.”

When Afunin connected to the group army headquarters, Sokov was talking to Hudyakov: "... Comrade Air Marshal, so to speak, the transport aircraft group transporting the airborne troops has successfully landed at Fengtian Airport without suffering any damage. Any attack? ... This is great. On behalf of all the commanders and fighters of the 53rd Army, I would like to express my gratitude to you for the great support your Air Force has provided us!"

As soon as he said this, Sokov saw Yakov, who was holding a microphone opposite him, opening his mouth to him and said silently: "It's General Afnin's call."

Sokov made a gesture to Yakov, indicating that he and Afunin should communicate. He continued to talk to Hudyakov: "The first batch of airborne troops have successfully entered Fengtian, but their strength is still too high." With so few, it may not be easy to control the city. So please work harder on your transport fleet and continue to help us transport more troops to Fengtian."

After chatting for a while, Sokov ended the conversation with Hudyakov and put down the microphone in his hand. He looked at Yakov who had already finished the phone call and said: "Yasha, did General Afnin tell you that the leading battalion of his airborne division has occupied Fengtian Airport?"

"That's right." Yakov nodded and said in a positive tone: "In addition, they also successfully captured Emperor Kant and found a place to keep him."

“Misha, I want to ask you a question.” Lu Jin suddenly said.

“Excuse me, Comrade Deputy Commander.”

 “How do you think your superiors will deal with this Emperor Kant?”

Before Sokov could answer, Yakov said first: "Needless to say, he must be shot directly. After all, even the Tsar was shot, let alone a little pseudo-emperor."

"That's not necessarily the case." But as soon as Yakov finished speaking, Sokov put forward the opposite view: "I think not only will he not be shot, I will even put him in a suitable place and let him enjoy a comfortable life. life. And when the time is right, send him back to the country."
