"Quick, quick!"
Gunshots kept coming from behind, and Chang Gaocheng urged him repeatedly.
The Chevrolet truck suddenly stopped.
A police car and several police officers appeared in front.
Chang Gaocheng's heart suddenly relaxed.
Those robbers would never shoot in front of the patrolmen.
However, he still did not dare to get out of the car.
He had to wait until reinforcements arrived before he could come down.
He saw the patrolman coming towards here.
Suddenly, Chang Gaocheng screamed miserably.
A bright ax struck him on his left cheek.
Golden axe!
I think back then, Golden Ax relied on an ax to fight against Shanghai and helped Ji Yunqing achieve his current status.
Although his body bones are now broken, he can still use an ax!
Chang Gaocheng is also a talented person. At the critical moment of life and death, he opened the car door and rolled out.
Unfortunately, it's too late.
Several patrol officers came over and without saying a word, they shot Chang Gaocheng with a "bang".
Chang Gaocheng is dead.
Golden Ax jumped out of the truck.
A patrolman drove straight to the civilian girls' school where classes were already taking place.
In the girls' school, an identical, brand-new Chevrolet truck without a license plate drove out and replaced the previous Chevrolet truck.
Two patrolmen dragged Chang Gaocheng's body to the carriage. Gan Ning took out a grenade, carried a suitcase, sandwiched the grenade between the suitcase and Chang Gaocheng's head, and then pulled the fuse. .
"boom"!
Gan Ning nodded towards the golden axe, and then quickly evacuated with his men into the civilian girls' school.
Jin Ax took out his gun and hid in the front of the car.
It only took a little more than a minute to finish everything.
The truck was exactly the same, and in the compartment was the same suitcase, which contained almost the same yen and military stamps.
almost.
Change the day!
The yen is still yen, and military tickets are still military tickets.
But it is no longer the yen and military coupons...
…
A small half box of yen was blown up.
But in the other boxes, there were all Japanese yen and military coupons.
"Lao Jin, hurry up. You must send it out in person. You must send it out of Shanghai safely and into the hands of the Japanese! I will send you more manpower to make sure nothing happens again."
"Don't worry, Boss Ji!"
Golden Ax patted his chest: "I will do it even if I risk my life!"
…
1838.
Senior generals of the National Revolutionary Army and old enemies Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun put aside their personal grievances and launched a bloody battle with the Japanese army in Linyi, severely damaging the Japanese Fifth Division in Linyi.
The Japanese army's six infantry brigades of the Sakamoto detachment that attacked Linyi fought in Linyi until March 29. Due to the emergency of the Segu detachment that attacked Taierzhuang, only two brigades were left to contain Pang Bingxun and Zhang Zizhong's troops, and the remaining four brigades and artillery were transferred to Taierzhuang to fight.
The decisive battle in Taierzhuang begins!
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, something happened."
"Why are you panicking?" Lieutenant General Itagaki Seishiro, commander of the Japanese Fifth Division, raised his head dissatisfied: "To panic is to undermine the dignity of the emperor."
"Yes, Your Excellency, Division Commander, however, counterfeit Japanese yen and military notes have been discovered one after another in various regiments and detachments below, which has caused dissatisfaction among the soldiers and some officers."
"What?" Itagaki Seishiro was startled: "Fake banknotes? Fake military notes? How is this possible?"
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, please take a look."
A military ticket was placed in front of Itagaki Seishiro.
Fifty dollars.
The Japanese Emperor used...
Tickets for the Japanese Emperor**!
The word "hand" is missing!
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, this fake military note has very obvious characteristics. We quickly checked other Japanese yen and military notes and found a large number of counterfeit notes!"
"How is that possible?" Itagaki Seishiro found it unbelievable.
"That's true. These Japanese yen and military coupons are all shipped from Shanghai."
"Yours, you mean Ji Yunqing's money?"
"Yes."
"idiot!"
Itagaki Seishiro became angry instantly: "Asshole! Two million yen and one million military coupons, are they all fake?"
"Based on our current investigation, it is very likely that they are all fake. Your Excellency, the division commander, the all-out attack on the Chinese army has begun. At this time, so many counterfeit banknotes were discovered, and they were all distributed to the soldiers. , this will have a huge impact on morale. Many of our soldiers will send their salaries home, but now..."
"We must stabilize their emotions." Itagaki Seishiro's face turned pale: "Telegram the Shanghai authorities to investigate thoroughly!"
Itagaki Seishiro's mood at this time is completely difficult to express in words.
Since the launch of the offensive operations, the Fifth Division has suffered numerous defeats. At the most critical moment, it even ignored the bodies of a large number of Japanese soldiers who died in action.
The Japanese army has always attached great importance to the disposal of the corpses of soldiers. Unless the situation is so critical that there is nothing they can do, they usually try to bring them back for incineration and bring their ashes back to Japan.
But in the face of the Chinese ** team's strict defense and desperate counterattack, this was no longer a concern.
This has already caused a serious blow to morale. Every Japanese soldier is worried about whether his ashes will be able to return to his hometown once he is killed in battle.
Now, there is a large area of counterfeit money appearing in the army?
Itagaki Seishiro could even imagine the dissatisfaction and resentment of the frontline soldiers...
…
Shanghai, Office of Special Operations.
Boxes of money and military stamps were placed in Meng Shaoyuan's office.
Meng Shaoyuan took out a stack of money and fiddled with it in his hand: "Money, such a good thing, do you know how many things can be done with so much money?"
No one answered him.
Meng Shaoyuan threw the stack of money in his hand to Gan Ning: "Take part of it and give it to the brothers who participated in this operation. The rest, take out one million yen and all the military coupons, and send them to each guerrilla group." .For every one hundred thousand yen, there are two to thirty thousand counterfeit bills mixed in.”
"yes!"
The guerrillas can live a more prosperous life.
"Everyone." Meng Shaoyuan stood up and walked to the map hanging on the wall: "I just received intelligence from the front line. Our 22nd Group Army, with inferior equipment and strength, fought bloody battles with the Japanese army for three days and nights, killing countless enemies. I myself also suffered heavy losses. Wang Mingzhang, commander of the 122nd Division, died for his country!"
He said slowly: "Stand up and observe a moment of silence for Master Wang!"
Everyone stood up and hung their heads.
"After the silence, please sit down." Meng Shaoyuan sighed softly: "Our army killed more than 2,000 enemies in the Teng County area, which greatly hindered the progress of the Japanese army. Master Wang has made outstanding contributions to the world. Wu Jingyi, mobilized A special donation of 100,000 yuan will be sent anonymously to Mr. Wang’s family.”
"Understood." Wu Jingyi replied silently.
Master Meng seems to have always been stingy and regards wealth as his life. But when he needs to spend money, he really doesn't even frown.
Maybe, people who do great things are like this?
"Everyone!" Meng Shaoyuan raised his voice slightly: "The Japanese army mobilized the main force to fight the Sulu battlefield. Our 2nd Army Sun Lianzhong's troops are stationed in Taierzhuang. The Japanese army will definitely launch a crazy attack on Taierzhuang and then occupy the entire Xuzhou. And I assert that the battle of Taierzhuang , will be the most important turning point in the entire war of resistance!"
Everyone attending the meeting was stunned.
What Director Meng said was shocking. Now that the battle ahead is lively and the outcome is still undecided, does he actually dare to say something like a major turning point?
Meng Shaoyuan knew it too well.
Throughout the Battle of Xuzhou, the Japanese army used 9 full divisions, in addition to parts of 3 divisions, and the other 6 divisions guarded Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Inner Mongolia, Hebei, Shandong, Shanxi, and Henan.
As a result, the military strength has become extremely weak, almost to the point of being unable to support.
Especially in the later stages of the battle, due to the fierce Japanese resistance, the Japanese army felt deeply inadequate in frontline operations and repeatedly requested additional troops from the rear. However, the Japanese invaders had no available troops and had to ask for help from the Kwantung Army.
At that time, the Kwantung Army had deployed more than 100,000 troops to reinforce Guan Nei, and it itself was very empty.
Just because this was an order issued by the Japanese military headquarters, the Kwantung Army did not dare to disobey it. They had to mix Major General Tamura Genichi's 3rd Brigade and Major General Morita Norimasa's mixed 13th Brigade. These two mixed brigades had 10,000 soldiers. A large number of troops were sent to Xuzhou, which fully shows how embarrassed the Japanese army was.
At that time, the strength of the Kwantung Army was already quite empty. If the Soviet army attacked the Northeast at this time, the Japanese army would be severely defeated!
Since all the mobile forces of the Japanese army are fighting on the front line and against the enemy, occupying the rear is like giving up. **The armed forces behind enemy lines have developed greatly.
During this period of time, the Japanese armed forces behind enemy lines have reached as many as 1 million! The Eighth Route Army rapidly increased from 40,000 to 200,000. The Japanese army could not be eliminated in a short period of time, and thus fell into a quagmire of protracted war.
What if the Japanese army was not so desperate for the siege of Xuzhou, but followed the previous plan of not launching a new attack in 1938? In this year, the Japanese army was able to wipe out most of the nascent Japanese armed forces behind enemy lines.
Then, a protracted war for Japan is out of the question.
However, there is never an if in war!
"Everyone, it's March, spring is here, and our spring is here too!" Meng Shaoyuan pointed to the map and said: "Southern Jiangsu and northern Jiangsu, our guerrilla forces behind enemy lines are active frequently, and we are ordering an open recruitment of troops in large quantities from now on. Work hard to develop your weapons! Let me go free and do it. If you are brave enough, I will draw as many teams as you can!"
He glanced at Wu Jingyi and said: "Also, those officers at the level of squadron leader or above who have been trained in Shanghai should not stay in Shanghai. Send them all out with money and guns to expand my team!"
yes!
"Report, urgent call!"
The telegraph operator hurriedly walked in and handed a telegram to Wu Jingyi.
Wu Jingyi only glanced at it, and her expression suddenly changed slightly.
"What's up?"
"Secret telegram. Order Meng Shaoyuan, director of the Military Command Shanghai Special Office, to set off immediately and lead at least two squadrons to Xuzhou at starry night!"
"What?" Meng Shaoyuan was stunned: "You want me to go to Xuzhou immediately?"
"Yes, this is an order personally issued by Director Dai."
"Got it." Meng Shaoyuan did not dare to neglect: "Order, Jurong Zhu Yanni's troops, personally lead two squadrons to Xuzhou. This death order must not be mistaken!"
