Shanghai Dispatch Army Headquarters.
"What? The 38th Regiment, the entire army was wiped out? Baga! You are one of the few outstanding commanders in the empire. How could you make such a low-level mistake? The entire Imperial Army of a Regiment was wiped out? What do you think? Are all the empire’s warriors pigs?”
When Matsui Iwane heard Sasaki's report, he was almost blown away.
News of frontline defeats came one after another. Yesterday, he just figured out why the Yoshida detachment lost contact. Today I heard bad news about the 30th Brigade again. An entire regiment of the imperial army was wiped out in just one and a half hours.
This is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world. Are all the soldiers of the empire made of pigs?
Matsui Iwane's anger made Sasaki's skin crawl. How could he not hear the commander's anger from the phone call?
So if he doesn't handle this matter well, I'm afraid he may be demoted.
And this is one of the main reasons why the commander of the 16th Division, Nakajima Imaogo, did not report in person, but asked Sasaki to report on his own.
Nakajima I don’t want to take the blame for Sasaki.
Because you can just imagine, if this call had been made by Nakajima Konso to me, then Iwane Matsui would probably have scolded him, saying that Nakajima Konso and I were not able to command effectively.
Therefore, the little devils are really not monolithic. When the battle fails, they will choose to shirk responsibility.
And Sasaki naturally knows this. If he doesn't handle this matter well, I'm afraid the only thing waiting for him is to be demoted.
So this old devil could only explain that it was not that I was incapable, but that the enemy was too powerful.
In addition, Sasaki also reported to Matsui Iwane what Danwu had taught him about the existence of a Chinese spy network within the Japanese army.
This vicious and cruel old devil sat in the office and thought hard, but after a while he still found it hard to believe: "This is simply impossible. The soldiers of the empire are all from the mainland. How could they become the enemy's spies? "
Sasaki said: "Your Excellency, I thought so at first. But then I thought about it, weren't there many Chinese who went to Japan to study in the past? Although we used this to win over a group of people for my use. But the same, Could those Chinese have also infiltrated into our army?"
"Souga!"
Matsui Iwane finally agreed with Sasaki about the spy problem. But he didn't say much, because these things needed to be investigated secretly. Otherwise, the entire Japanese military headquarters would be in panic because of this!
He and Sasaki said: "You first set up defenses outside Changshu. I will send you the reinforcements you want as soon as possible. But before that, don't act rashly. Duanwu is a man with many tricks. If you can't use a large force, you can kill him in one fell swoop." Annihilating them will eventually become a trouble in the future.”
"Yes, Your Excellency, I will hold off that Dragon Boat Festival first. Once the large group of troops arrives, I will launch an attack on Changshu."
"kindness!"
Matsui Iwane thanked him and hung up the phone. But he thought about it and made another call to Shanghai Tech High-Tech.
Half an hour later, a slim woman wearing a black suit and a black top hat appeared in Matsui Iwane's office.
This woman has curvaceous curves, her skin is as white as gelatin, and her facial features are also very delicate, like a young student.
But at this time, she was wearing a black suit that only secret agents would wear.
The suit is very decent, and it highlights all the parts of her figure that should be highlighted.
She walked straight into Matsui Iwane's office without anyone stopping her. Because everyone knows that she is the one, the special class, the head of the class - Nan Zao Yunzi.
Minami Yunko, like the great spy Kawashima Yoshiko, has a legendary life.
Nan Zao Yunzi was born in Shanghai, China in 1909. When she was 13 years old, she was sent to a spy school in Japan by her father, where she studied under the Japanese spy leader Kenji Doihara.
At the age of 17, Nan Zao Yunzi graduated from the spy school and was immediately sent to Dalian, China to engage in espionage activities. In 1929, Nan Zao Yunzi sneaked into Nanjing as an out-of-school youth, waiting for an opportunity to infiltrate the top brass of the Kuomintang in order to steal military secrets.
After Nan Zao Yunzi came to Nanjing, he changed his name to Liao Yaquan and worked as a waiter at Tangshan Hot Spring Guest House.
Tangshan is about 30 kilometers away from Nanjing and is an excellent leisure place. The Kuomintang authorities built a swimming pool and a hot spring guest house in Tangshan. Military and political officials flocked to it and often held secret military meetings here.
The Japanese secret service had long since set its sights on such an important place that combined leisure, entertainment and military and political meetings, so it sent Yunzi Nanzo to break into the guest house department.
Nan Zao Yunzi soon caught a big fish with her glamorous appearance - Huang Jun, the director secretary of the Kuomintang Executive Yuan.
Huang Jun was born in Minhou, Fujian in 1884. He came from a family of officials. He studied in Japan when he was young and was familiar with Japanese customs and customs. He was proficient in Japanese.
After returning to China, Huang Jun served in the Beiyang Government. Later, he was appreciated by Lin Sen, Chairman of the Nanjing National Government, and was transferred to the Executive Yuan as Secretary-General.
After Wang Jingwei became chairman of the Central Political Conference and executive director of the Kuomintang in 1932, he was even more impressed by Huang Jun, who was familiar with the situation in Japan.
Huang Jun is a lustful person who often comes to Tangshan Hot Spring Guest House for entertainment. The first time he saw Nanzo Yunzi, he was fascinated.
Unknowingly, Huang Jun revealed a lot of "internal" situations to Nan Zaoyunzi, and eventually he and his son were developed into Japanese spies.
The Huangs and their sons took advantage of various opportunities to collect intelligence for Nan Zao Yunzi and expand their espionage organization. People from the General Staff Headquarters, the Military and Administrative Department, and the Navy Department under the Nationalist Government's Military Commission were successively imprisoned, and some major secrets of the Kuomintang were stolen one after another. .
Even in the end, the whereabouts of the Chairman were leaked.
The chairman of the committee was almost killed by a Japanese plane, but he suddenly realized that he secretly ordered an internal investigation. Finally, this secret service lurking within the government was exposed in one fell swoop.
Nan Zao Yunzi, Huang's father and son, and others were arrested and imprisoned almost at the same time.
But the final result was that Huang and his son were executed by firing squad. On the contrary, Nan Zao Yunzi escaped from the heavily guarded prison. After that, he returned to Shanghai and was ordered to form No. 76.
At this time, it is not called No. 76, but a special lesson.
"Your Mightiness!"
When Nanzo Yunzi saw Matsui Iwane, he maintained an expression of humility and admiration.
Matsui Iwane also admired Nanzo Yunzi very much. Of course, this is not limited to Nanzo Yunzi's beautiful appearance.
It is undeniable that Nanzo Yunzi is a fascinating woman. It is said that when she escaped from Nanjing Prison, she completely bewitched a jailer with her beauty.
It has to be said that Nanzo Yunzi's charm is simply too great.
Because just imagine, Nan Zao Yunzi was already a prisoner at that time. And he is a spy.
If you are a smart person, you will not be unable to control your third leg at this time.
Because once you get in touch with a spy, you will definitely die. Who dares to get into trouble at this time?
But it just so happens that Nan Zao Yunzi has this ability. Not only did she successfully seduce the jailer, but she also successfully escaped from the heavily guarded prison.
Therefore, it is undeniable that Nan Zao Yunzi's ability to do things is simply a miracle.
Matsui Iwane couldn't help but feel a little moved when he looked at the woman in front of him. But thinking about the men she had slept with, Matsui Iwane thought it was better to forget it.
First, his status is too high. If he does this, it will affect his subsequent work arrangements. Secondly, he felt that Nan Zao Yunzi was dirty and disgusting.
Therefore, Matsui Iwane tried hard to move his eyes away from Minami Yunzi, and pretended to be serious:
"I just received news that Chinese spies have appeared within our army. You have to investigate in secret instead of making a big show of it. And the results of this investigation can only be reported to me alone, do you understand?"
"Hi!"
Nan Zao Yunzi responded, then bowed and retreated. She didn't say much, nor did she say in surprise: "This is impossible," or anything like that.
Because as a spy, she knew very well that she could infiltrate high-ranking officials of the Kuomintang. The Chinese can do it too.
Therefore, she did not give Matsui Iwane any advice. But absolute obedience.
·················
At the same time, in Changshu City, Duanwu was also catching spies. But his methods were more ambitious.
He asked the patrol team of the 44th Division and the police to roam around the city to alert others. And he went to find Ma Pingan, who was in hospital.
Although Ma Pingan's identity has not been made public. But in Duanwu's heart, it is already an open secret.
Dragon Boat Festival can be sure that Ma Pingan is an underground party that has been lurking in Changshu for many years.
However, Dragon Boat Festival did not tell the truth, because Ma Ping'an had been lurking in Changshu for many years, so he naturally had his own mission. So on this point, Dragon Boat Festival will not interfere.
Moreover, although he went to find Ma Ping'an again and again, it was very likely that his identity would be exposed. But compared with the Japanese spies who were in trouble, he still had to take this risk. At worst, just find an opportunity to send Ma safely out of the city and ensure his safety.
Moreover, he had just received the news that Ma Ping'an was out of danger. Although he can't get out of bed and walk yet, he is awake.
What the Dragon Boat Festival wants is Ma Ping'an's sobriety. He could even find a few people to carry the horse away safely.
Because Ma Pingan is a living map of Changshu City. And has very keen insight and tracking capabilities.
He already knew the news that Yamamoto was injured. So he needed Ma Ping'an, a veteran detective, to track Yamamoto, focus on the investigation, and capture the last Japanese spy.
This is very important for the Dragon Boat Festival. Because there can’t be any mistakes in the next plan of Dragon Boat Festival. Otherwise, if you make one wrong move, you will lose everything.
This is the case in war. If you make a tactical mistake, not only will the soldiers at the front be put in danger, but it will most likely lead to the collapse of the entire battle.
Therefore, the Dragon Boat Festival cannot give the little devil any opportunity to take advantage of. This Colonel Yamamoto, he must catch him first.
On the way to the hospital, Xie Jinyuan walked side by side with Duanwu and said: "Regiment, the Independent Regiment has been seriously attrited. It is said to be a regiment, but the total adds up to less than 300 people. This company's 44th There is not even a single battalion of the division. You have to think of a way."
Duanwu said: "I have thought about this. First, we will organize Cheng Wanli's battalion into the independent regiment. Although there are less than 200 people, they are all elites. This is an important factor for the combat effectiveness of our independent regiment. A lot of troops have been replenished.
Lao Cheng is a character! Not only are they brave in battle, but all the soldiers they train are also good. "
Xie Jinyuan said: "Isn't this bad? The 87th Division looks like nothing on the surface. But in fact, there is a gap with our 88th Division. I think it was precisely because of this that the 36th Division was formed. The regiment is so If you do it, I’m afraid it will increase conflicts?”
Duanwu smiled and said: "This is none of my business. Let the two division commanders fight the war. I am short of people now, I don't care about them!"
Xie Jinyuan nodded and thought to himself: This is indeed very Dragon Boat Festival. However, the number of independent regiments is still not enough. It can only be said that they can fight for the time being.
Afterwards, Xie Jinyuan discussed the 79th Brigade with Duanwu. The 79th Brigade has also experienced serious attrition recently. Although Sun Bo'an didn't say anything, those under him still had some complaints.
What Xie Jinyuan meant was to either find a way to add some troops to the 79th Brigade, or to change defenses and let them take a rest.
Duanwu sneered and said: "I still want to rest, but will the little devil give us this time? What's more, how can it be so easy to replenish soldiers? The independent regiment is short of people, haven't you seen it? I don't even have room. Replenish troops, where can I go to replenish troops for him? Lao Xie, you don’t need to worry about this matter for now, when the time comes, I will go and tell Sun Bo’an.”
"kindness!"
Xie Jinyuan nodded and continued walking with Duanwu. Thirty meters ahead is a two-story white building. There is a small yard outside. It looks like more than 200 square meters. A plaque of Changshu People's Hospital hangs at the door.
Xie Jinyuan smiled and said: "Come on, look, the hospital has arrived. This hospital is quite decent."
"kindness!"
Duanwu was about to say something, but he noticed a black Mercedes-Benz car parked in front of the hospital.
Duanwu said: "There are so many wealthy households in Changshu City, and this is another Mercedes-Benz car."
Xie Jinyuan tilted his head and looked at the license plate and said: "Tuanzuo, this is not a private car, it is for the government."
"Institutional?"
Dragon Boat Festival didn't see anything. However, at this moment, a group of people were walking out of the main entrance of the hospital.
The leader was a young man wearing a white suit and short hair. He was elegant and wore a pair of silver-rimmed glasses.
And behind him were four men in black.
Two of them followed at the end, and the other two were in the middle driving the seriously injured horse safely.
Seeing this, Xie Jinyuan frowned and said, "It's the Sanqingtuan League. What are they doing to arrest Ma Ping An?"
Duanwu smacked his lips and said, "Ma Ping'an is the person I want. I can't let them take him away."
However, at this time, Xie Jinyuan stopped him and said: "Young Master, we can't mess with people from the Three Youth League!..."
