On October 6, 1938, Xue Yue, commander-in-chief of the First Corps, issued a counterattack order!
The battle lasted until October 9, when most of the Japanese 106th Division was wiped out.
Known in history as the "Great Victory at Wanjialing"!
This is the first time since the "Marco Bridge Incident" that the Communist Party of China has systematically eliminated Japanese divisions.
Xue Yue's reputation as the "God of War" is resounding at home and abroad!
On October 9, the day of the "Wanjialing Victory", Shi Ziru, the ethics review specialist of the Military Command Bureau, arrived in Shanghai.
Meng Shaoyuan personally greeted him, which gave the review specialist a lot of face.
This Shizi is now thirty-five years old, with oily hair and a pink face. He looks quite impressive, but his face is probably a little white from staying up all night.
When he saw Meng Shaoyuan, Shi Ziru looked proud.
He was inexplicably promoted to the deputy section chief of the third section, and was appointed as the moral review specialist. Naturally, he felt that "I was born with talents that will be useful, and you are only willing to use them today."
I had heard before that Meng Shaoyuan was the archrival of Section 3. He had taken up a new position, and Meng Shaoyuan's promotion was in his hands. Naturally, he wanted to give Meng Shaoyuan a blow as soon as he arrived in Shanghai.
Meng Shaoyuan was polite to him. No matter how sarcastic and sarcastic Shi Ziru was, he always greeted him with a smile.
As a result, Shi Ziru didn't know how to deal with it.
It is said that Meng Shaoyuan is very arrogant and arrogant, but when we meet him, it is different from the rumors, right?
Shi Ziru had no experience as an official, he was nothing more than a playboy.
The show of force failed to succeed, but I felt embarrassed.
In addition, Meng Shaoyuan was very attentive to him, and the food and accommodation were of the highest quality, which inevitably made him feel valued, and he gradually developed a good impression of Meng Shaoyuan.
In the evening, Meng Shaoyuan specially held a banquet at the International Hotel to wash away the dust for Shi Zirujie.
In addition to Meng Shaoyuan and Wu Jingyi, there is also an unfamiliar face:
Sheng En Yi Sheng, the Fourth Young Master!
Even Shi Ziru has heard of the name of Fourth Young Master Sheng.
The son of the former richest man in China.
"Commissioner Shi, let's see what you want to eat?" Meng Shaoyuan said attentively.
Shi Ziru was afraid of showing his ugly face: "The Fourth Young Master is here. How can I order food? It's better for the Fourth Young Master to come."
Sheng Enyi didn't refuse: "It's October, the crabs are getting fat..."
Meng Shaoyuan immediately said: "Get more hairy crabs."
"Hey, Director Meng, it's too hard to eat these hairy crabs in eight pieces, and it's unsightly to eat with bare hands. What's the point of eating them?" Sheng Enyi looked disapproving: "In a hairy crab, only crab roe is interesting, so get crab roe and shark fin , remember, there shouldn't be any fishy smell when making it... Let's have a candy carp, I'm afraid you can't get serious Yellow River carp in a place like this, so I'll just make do with it. After all, the taste now is not as good as in the past. So delicious…”
He ordered seven or eight dishes in one go.
Meng Shaoyuan and Shi Ziru were like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, listening to his order in a daze, not daring to say a word.
"Let's serve the food." Sheng Enyi seemed to be the host today: "In a hurry, order a few dishes that are easy to prepare, and Commissioner Shi will just eat them."
Although Shi Ziru is also a playboy, how can he speak in front of Sheng Enyi, a serious young man? He had never even heard of some of the dishes Sheng Enyi ordered, and the arrogance he had when he came to Shanghai suddenly disappeared.
Sheng Enyi sighed: "Speaking of eating, Tan Yankai, who served as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi and the president of the Executive Yuan, is one of them. However, some people say that he is the 'number one eater in the Republic of China', which is an exaggeration. When it comes to people who can really eat, except for one There is no one else but President Yuan. I had dinner with President Yuan. The Empress Dowager Cixi passed down a dish called 'Stewed Fat Duck'. President Yuan improved it and steamed it in chicken soup for three days. The combination of the aroma and the deliciousness of duck is the real delicacy in the world..."
Meng Shaoyuan was stunned for a while after hearing this.
What is luxury? What does it mean to be able to eat? This is what people really know how to eat.
Sheng Enyi then asked: "Is this the first time Commissioner Shi has come to Shanghai?"
"Ah, yes, yes, it's my first time."
Shi Ziru replied hurriedly.
"This Shanghai is a world of flowers, but there are not many places to actually play. It's just about spending money." Sheng Enyi said in a calm tone: "It depends on whether you know how to spend it or not. No matter how rich some people are, , He also looks like a rich man. After dinner, I took Commissioner Shi around. I heard that there is a dancer coming to Paramount. She is good at sex and art. She is a must-see."
Shizi was so excited that he wanted to go to the Paramount Ballroom immediately.
"Then it's the Fourth Young Master's fault." Meng Shaoyuan declined: "Commissioner Shi, I won't accompany you personally."
These words were exactly what Shi Ziru wanted. With Meng Shaoyuan by his side, he couldn't have enough fun: "Director Meng is busy with official duties. You are busy with your business. You are busy with your business."
…
"Brother Meng."
"When working, call me Director Meng."
"Yes, Director Meng."
Early in the morning, Xiao Zhong came to the office full of resentment. His eyes were filled with black eyes and he obviously lacked sleep: "This job is impossible. Yesterday they went to a dance hall called Baishanmen. Good guy, we arranged a dancer. The people in the team wanted to dance with her, but that Fourth Young Master took out two small yellow croakers, and Shi Ziru danced with the dancer alone. Two small yellow croakers, just for two dances? What a waste of money?"
"Don't be anxious, speak slowly." Meng Shaoyuan didn't take it seriously.
"After dancing, Sheng Enyi saw that Shi Ziru had taken a fancy to the dancer, so he offered the dancer a hundred dollars to accompany Shi Ziru for the whole night. For one hundred dollars, the dancer went crazy with joy. How could she not agree?" Zhong said angrily: "Then, Sheng Enyi took the dancer and Shi Ziru to have a midnight snack, and then the three of them went directly to gamble. They gambled all night. It was almost dawn before the three of them reluctantly left. "
"Losing or winning?"
"Won, but not by much."
"That's good." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "I have already given instructions to those casinos. As long as they see Sheng Enyi arrive, they cannot let him lose, but they cannot let him win too much. Xiaozhong, if you come so early in the morning, why don't you let him win too much?" Haven’t you slept?”
"No." Xiaozhong said aggrievedly: "Director Meng, please give me another job. I really can't do this job."
"You have to do it even if you can't do it. I told you that day, take this opportunity to get familiar with Shanghai. Where is the fun place to work and where there are many people? How will you perform tasks in the future?" Meng Shaoyuan waved He waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, catch up on your sleep, recuperate your energy, and continue to accompany them today."
…
Lin Xuan stood in front of Meng Shaoyuan, not daring to say a word.
Meng Shaoyuan looked at her coldly: "After reflecting for so many days, do you realize that you were wrong?"
"I got it." Lin Xuan lowered her head: "I shouldn't have acted out of anger as soon as I saw Tian Qi, and ended up getting arrested on my brothers' hands."
"Tian Qi should be killed, and I want to kill him too, but the time and place to score is!" Meng Shaoyuan snorted coldly: "You can be considered an old man who has been with me for so long, why are you still so impulsive? Who is Tian Qi? What was my subordinate back then? The number one killer, you killed him? Why did you kill Tian Qi? How can you be the captain if you will hurt your brothers?"
Lin Xuan straightened up: "Director Meng, I request punishment."
"Punishment?" Meng Shaoyuan's tone slowed down a little: "There must be punishment. Let's do this. You don't want to be the captain for the time being. Assistant Wu is short of people. You go and help for a few days. When will your temper change? When will we return to frontline work again?"
"clear."
While they were talking there, the door of the office opened and Shi Ziru walked in in a swaggering manner.
"Oh, Commissioner Shi, it's only two o'clock in the afternoon, you're up so early?" Meng Shaoyuan stood up immediately, and then said to Lin Xuan: "You go to Assistant Wu to report first."
"yes!"
Lin Xuan turned around and came face to face with Shi Ziru.
Shi Ziru was immediately dumbfounded.
He was originally a playboy with a lust for sex, so when he saw Lin Xuan, he immediately fell in love with her.
Yesterday's dancer was coquettish, but the little girl in front of her was beautiful, pure and unique.
He got up today and had a warm conversation with the dancer. The dancer said that she had taken a fancy to a watch and wanted to buy it.
When asked about the price, Shi Ziru didn't have that much money in his pocket, so he found an excuse to stabilize the dancer first. After thinking about it, he decided to go to Meng Shaoyuan to find a solution.
Who would have thought that I would meet such a beautiful woman like Lin Xuan as soon as I came here.
"Commissioner Shi, please sit down, please sit down." Meng Shaoyuan noticed it at a glance. He asked Lin Xuan to go out first, and then asked Shi Ziru to sit down: "Commissioner Shi is here to guide the work."
"Where, where." All Shi Ziru could think about was Lin Xuan. Yesterday he and Sheng Enyi were eating, drinking and having fun. They realized that Shanghai is not only a world of flowers, but also a sales treasury. The little money in his pocket is not enough for the fourth son of the family. For a meal:
"Director Meng, yesterday I finally got to see what a rich person's life is like. The Fourth Young Master of this family can spend money without even frowning."
Damn it, it’s all your Master Meng’s money that was spent!
But Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said: "In that case, I will let Fourth Young Master accompany Commissioner Shi today. Commissioner Shi rarely comes to Shanghai, so he must have a lot of fun."
"It's hard work, it's hard work." Shi Ziru sighed: "But I thought, we can't always let the Fourth Young Master spend money. Shanghai is good, but it is good at using money. I am a government official and I am short of money. Haha, haha."
His preface and follow-up words were irrelevant, but Meng Shaoyuan knew his inner thoughts very well: "I see, Commissioner Shi, relax, I will ask Assistant Wu to write a check for you in a while, I always want Commissioner Shi to enjoy himself in Shanghai. "
Shi Ziru was overjoyed.
Meng Shaoyuan then said slowly: "However, Commissioner Shi came to Shanghai this time specifically to conduct a moral assessment on me. Gold, oceans, dollars and pounds are all the hard currency of Shanghai. I don't know what a thousand oceans can get." What kind of evaluation?"
Although Shi Ziru is uneducated and incompetent, he is very shrewd when it comes to money: "I think Director Meng's moral character is acceptable."
"Where's Two Thousand Oceans?"
"Above average moral character."
"One price, five thousand oceans!"
"Excellent moral character, blameless! I will send a telegram immediately!"
"Come here, write a check to Commissioner Shi!"
