The sky above Chongqing is filled with smoke, and the air is filled with a pungent smell.
Meng Shaoyuan walked out of the air-raid shelter.
The Japanese bombing was over.
I don’t know how many houses were blown up and how many people died.
"Report."
Wang Nanxing rushed over, but before he opened his mouth, Meng Shaoyuan asked:
"Is Director Dai safe?"
"Director Dai is safe." Wang Nanxing quickly replied: "One person in our operations department was killed and two were injured in this bombing. The remaining losses are still under investigation."
"Sir Meng."
The one who came over was Li Zhifeng, the captain of his own guard whom Xue Yue lent: "There are no casualties in our guard."
"Well, take care of yourself."
"Sir Meng." Li Zhifeng still raised his doubts: "What exactly is our mission?"
Yeah, what exactly is the mission?
Not only Li Zhifeng, but the other nine people were also very confused.
It's true that you have good food and good accommodation here, but you don't have to do anything.
They are soldiers, not here to enjoy themselves.
"Wait a moment." Meng Shaoyuan comforted him: "You will have a mission soon."
…
The bombing on December 12 caused a total of 124 casualties among Chinese civilians.
This is a strategic bombing of a key city. It is not a particularly large number, but it is just one of the countless bombings that Chongqing will face in the future.
Chongqing will face countless sufferings.
But Chongqing will also straighten its steel backbone.
Chongqing will not surrender, and neither will China!
The Meng family members walked out of the air-raid shelter.
Fortunately, the garden once again narrowly escaped disaster.
"Arao." Cai Xuefei called as soon as she came out.
"I'm here." Butler Alao cursed the damn Japanese monkey in his mind and hurried over.
"Go, take a look outside." Cai Xuefei found it difficult to move: "Bring more people, medicine, and food. There must be many families who have been affected by the disaster."
"Okay, ma'am."
Meng Shaoyuan saw Luo Gen and stopped him: "Mr. Luo Gen, can you please also take your people to help? Thank you."
"Madam." Logan hesitated: "The task given to me by the boss is to protect your safety."
"Logan." Cai Xuefei said with a smile: "This is Chongqing, the rear area. Our safety is not the most important. Those who have been affected by the disaster need your help even more. Please, my friend."
Logan shrugged, whistled, and summoned all the "X-Team" members.
When he was about to set off, he suddenly said: "Madam, you are a kind person. I believe that the country behind a kind person like you will never fail."
Cai Xuefei firmly believes in this.
My husband is fighting for this country. My husband will not lose, and neither will my country!
"Hurry, you guys go back and rest quickly." As soon as Shang Qianyi came out, she supported Yin Peiya and said, "You are pregnant, don't be tired."
"sister!"
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came.
Yin Peiya was startled, turned around and looked, surprised and happy:
"Xiao Zhong!"
It's Xiaozhong, Xiaozhong is back!
"Sofia!"
Before he could leave, Logan also caught a glimpse of Sophia and a girl beside her.
"Head, here I come."
Sophia said lightly.
Xiaozhong rushed up and saw the baby Yin Peiya was holding: "Is this my niece?"
"Yes!" Yin Peiya nodded vigorously: "You are now an uncle."
Xiao Zhong was as happy as a child and looked at his niece again and again: "What's her name?"
"I haven't chosen a name yet. I want to wait for Shao Yuan to come back and help her choose a name."
When Meng Shaoyuan was mentioned, Zhu Yanni asked fiercely: "Xiao Zhong, did you come back alone?"
"No, Brother Meng is back too."
Suddenly, all the girls cheered.
Meng Shaoyuan is back!
Zhu Yanni asked, "How long has it been since you came back?"
"It's been a few days."
"Okay!" Zhu Yanni said with a straight face: "We are all back. I don't know where I'm going home. Maybe I'm fooling around somewhere again."
"Brother Meng has an urgent mission." Xiao Zhong quickly explained: "He was ordered to stay at the headquarters and had no way to escape. He asked me to come back first to meet with your branch. No, Japanese planes came to bomb before we arrived. , I brought... by the way."
Xiao Zhong called Shinako over: "It's really Shinako Matsumoto."
"Are you Japanese too?" Upon hearing this, Yamashita Yuri happily took Makoto's hand.
No wonder, she is the only Japanese here, and now there is suddenly a compatriot, how can she not be excited?
"Ma Naiko?"
Zhu Yanni looked at Zhen Naiko in confusion.
Cai Xuefei smiled bitterly: "Sister Yanni, don't you understand? We need more sisters again."
Zhu Yanni was so angry that her teeth itched with hatred.
Although I had known for a long time that the young master was full of tricks and he might not be able to live happily alone in Shanghai, but so soon there was another one...
Makoto let go of Yuri's hand and bowed deeply to them: "Please take good care of me in the future."
"Let's go, I'll take you to see it." Yuri Ai took Shinoko's hand affectionately and took her to visit the Meng family garden.
Xiaozhong said at this time: "Her father was Matsumoto Nitsugi, the head of the Japanese Army's secret service stationed in Shanghai. He committed suicide. Brother Meng was the indirect cause, so..."
As soon as these words came out, Zhu Yanni suddenly felt pitiful for Zhen Naizi.
After thinking for a while, he said bitterly:
"Damn Meng Shaoyuan, wait until you come back and see how I deal with you!"
…
"Mr. Dai, the bombing has just finished. There may be an explosion. Why did you come out so early?"
"Don't flatter me, flattering me is useless." Dai Li snorted coldly: "In this bombing, our air defense force failed to shoot down another Japanese plane. The Japanese seem to have known for a long time which places in Chongqing are the anti-aircraft firepower points. ”
Meng Shaoyuan understood instantly: "What Mr. Dai means is that there is a traitor in the air defense force?"
Dai Li nodded slowly.
With the beginning of key strategic bombing, the Japanese bombing became more and more intensive. From now on, it would happen every few days, causing heavy casualties every time.
To this end, the Nationalist Government also took some countermeasures, such as building underground air raid shelters that could accommodate tens of thousands of people, organizing anti-aircraft artillery units to bombard invading Japanese bombers, and so on.
However, what is strange is that although the Nationalist Government deployed many anti-aircraft artillery firepower units across Chongqing to stand ready and fire back with fierce fire once Japanese bombers flew over, very few enemy planes were shot down.
In addition, before and after every time the Japanese army bombed Chongqing, the intelligence staff of the Nationalist Government were always able to intercept some coded information, and without exception, this information was sent to the Japanese army from Chongqing, as if they were remotely commanding the Japanese Air Force's bombing operations.
This shows that there are Japanese spies hidden in Chongqing! It was probably him who informed the Japanese army about the deployment of anti-aircraft firepower in Chongqing.
However, because the radio communication codes used between the Japanese army and spies were very complex and difficult to decipher, the Nationalist government had no choice but to turn to the United States for help.
After learning of this situation, the United States immediately dispatched Herbert Yardley, a well-known domestic intelligence cryptography expert.
Yardley was the founder of the U.S. Intelligence Service, the future predecessor of the National Security Agency. Because of his superb code-breaking ability, he is known as the "Father of Cryptozoology" in the United States.
In November 1938, Yardley came to Chongqing. The Nationalist Government awarded him the rank of major and arranged for more than 30 students with a background in Japan to serve as his assistants to help him decipher Japanese military intelligence codes and find Japanese spies hidden in the Nationalist Government.
Meng Shaoyuan felt bright in his heart.
My Mr. Dai, if you don’t tell me, I haven’t remembered it yet. If you say this, I know who this spy is!
Not only did I know who this spy was, but I also knew who was in cahoots with him.
The problem is, I can’t say it now, can I?
Otherwise, it would be strange if you, Mr. Dai, don't doubt it.
Meng Shaoyuan asked seriously: "Mr. Dai wants me to find this spy?"
"Yes." Dai Li nodded: "Your mission is to cooperate with the American cryptography expert Herbert Yardley to solve the case in the shortest possible time."
"yes!"
"How long do you need?"
"Three days!"
"Three days?"
Dai Li was a little unbelievable: "So short?"
short?
Meng Shao originally wanted to solve the case in one hour, but this was too shocking.
Let's just say three days, let's act in three days.
"No jokes in the army!"
"Promise." Meng Shaoyuan said in a loud voice: "If the case cannot be solved within three days, I will take off my hat and go home to plant sweet potatoes. But..."
He said with a smile: "If I solve the case, Mr. Dai, you have to promise me something."
"explain."
Meng Shaoyuan said cautiously: "Mr. Dai, didn't I offend Xue Yue last time? I managed to save my life. This time, I probably will offend him again."
"Meng Shaoyuan!" Dai Li was so angry that he didn't even know what to say: "I knew you were trying to trick those ten people again!"
"You think, if I see such a treasure, I can let it go?" Meng Shaoyuan actually said plausibly: "Ten veterans were abducted by me... No, how useful can they be if they were brought to Shanghai by me."
"Meng Shaoyuan, Master Meng, I beg you."
Dai Li's voice really had a hint of pleading: "It's okay for you to be lawless in the military command. Now you are going to detain Xue Yue's people again and again. Who is Xue Yue? The Chairman's favorite general, just now A great victory. You really made him anxious. No one can protect you, and it might even implicate me."
"I do not care."
Meng Shaoyuan began to act rogue: "Anyway, I have taken a fancy to these ten people, and I have to take them back no matter what. I can't come all the way to Chongqing, so let's go back empty-handed."
Dai Li's nose almost turned crooked with anger.
The problem is, who can stop what Master Meng wants to do?
If you really try to stop him, he might come up with some new tricks.
Dai Li pointed at the door:
"Get out, get out of here!"
Get out!
Anyway, I, Master Meng, will definitely decide on these people!
