The first thing Xie Xuan heard was the news from Japan: The US military had forced a landing on Guadalcanal Island in the Solomon Islands and suffered heavy losses.
When Xie Xuan first heard the news, he saw the key point. Japan only said that the US military suffered heavy losses, but did not say that the US military was repulsed.
If the U.S. military is repulsed, given Japan's urinary temperament, it will be widely reported.
Since it was not mentioned, it means that the US military was not repelled.
After all, the Japanese army is the one defending the island. If the US military forces a landing, heavy losses are inevitable.
After all, the Japanese army is still very resilient. As long as they don't fight to the last soldier, it will be difficult for them to surrender.
And staying on the island, there is no way out.
It is conceivable that the US military also paid a high price to capture Guadalcanal.
Later, Xie Xuan specially listened to the American and Shancheng radio stations.
Sure enough, he heard the news he wanted to hear. The US military not only successfully landed, but also basically eliminated the Japanese troops on the island.
This shows that the Japanese army is really going downhill.
After all, Britain and the United States have been on the defensive before, but now the U.S. military is taking the initiative to attack. What does this mean? People are ready.
This attack is just a small test. Next, the Japanese army will face more and more attacks.
Xie Xuan can analyze such results, and others can do the same.
For example, Executive President Zhou Hai wrote in his diary: In this Sulumen naval battle, both sides claimed victory. However, I observed that there is no doubt that the losses of Britain and the United States were greater than Japan's in this naval battle. But there is something that cannot be ignored, that is, in the past, Britain and the United States used passive defense in the Pacific, but this time they are actively attacking. As the situation changes in the future, we should closely monitor it.
Zhou Hai initially defected to the Japanese, thinking that the Japanese army would fight all the way and capture the mountain city, Xi'an, Kunming and other places, and that Japan, Britain and the United States would not go to war.
To this day, "I know that both understandings are wrong, so the peace movement cannot help but think it is a mistake."
In his diary, he accused the Japanese of not going to war with Britain and the United States, which accelerated his own demise.
In Zhou Hai's home, there is a radio station set up by the Nanjing Station of the Military Command.
Xie Xuan received a report from intelligence personnel. It is said that after Zhou Hai heard that the US military had successfully landed on the island, Zhou Hai looked very disappointed and felt like he was in constant panic.
Zhou Hai is like this, let alone others.
In the evening, Ma Tian invited Xie Xuan to drink and also talked about the matter.
Ma Tian poured a glass of wine for Xie Xuan and said softly: "Boss, have you listened to the radio today? Why do I feel that the Japanese are dying?"
Xie Xuan said: "We are about to die, we have to hold on."
He knew what Ma Tian meant. Ma Tian had tested his tone before. If he didn't feel comfortable following the Japanese, he could leave a road to the mountain city.
If Xie Xuan was not a lurker, he might have answered the call.
But he is a real lurker. Not only does he have connections with Shancheng, but he is also responsible for the CCP.
Therefore, facing Ma Tian's temptation, Xie Xuan could only pretend that he didn't hear it.
Ma Tian asked again: "What if I can't hold on anymore?"
Xie Xuan said calmly: "Don't worry, the boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge, and there will be a village full of flowers and trees."
Ma Tian's eyes lit up: "Boss, do you have a way?"
Xie Xuan glared at him and said angrily: "Just do your own thing."
He was very clear about Ma Tian's feelings towards him.
Ma Tian was dissatisfied with the Japanese, and he knew it.
Xie Xuan has been evaluating whether to develop Ma Tian.
He hadn't made up his mind before, but this time when Ma Tian saw Yang Zhiyi and Gu Jiahan, he didn't even mention why they were there, but took him directly there.
Ma Tian immediately beamed and said vowedly: "I know that following the boss will never be wrong. I have said long ago that no matter where the boss goes, I will not hesitate to follow him. As long as the boss does not abandon me, Ma Tian This life belongs to the boss.”
Although Xie Xuan is young, he is actually a very calm person, so calm that people forget his age.
If Xie Xuan could say such a thing, Ma Tian was almost certain that Xie Xuan must have some backup plans.
If the Japanese can win, they naturally don't have to worry. Even if the Japanese are defeated, Xie Xuan will find a way. Maybe Xie Xuan has secretly contacted Shancheng.
Xie Xuan said casually: "Tomorrow, go see Miss Gu and see if there is anything she needs to take care of."
He already knew that Gu Jiahan had returned to Shenpu, but he still let Ma Tian go to see it, not only to test Ma Tian, but also to test his attitude, and to bring the topic to this.
Ma Tian suddenly lowered his voice and said: "Boss, this is the best opportunity. If you get married, Ueno Naomi won't pester you every day."
Xie Xuan scolded: "Do you think this is a good opportunity? Drink less wine from now on. What can you say and what can't be said? What can you do and what can't be done? You have to have a scale in your heart. Don't give it. Bring yourself into trouble.”
Ma Tian said: "You know, not only can you not cause trouble for yourself, but you can also not cause trouble for the boss."
Ma Tian didn't wait until the next day. After drinking, he went to Fengqiao Old Street.
As a result, it was discovered that Gu Jiahan had left.
Ma Tian quickly went to the Suzhou Hotel and reported to Xie Xuan face to face: "Boss, the buildings in Fengqiao Old Street are empty."
Xie Xuan said: "I asked her to leave Suzhou and it would be best if she could return to Shenpu. It seems that she listened."
Ma Tian smiled and said: "Miss Gu listened to the boss's words. It seems that she has a good impression of you. Boss must strike while the iron is hot and capture Miss Gu as soon as possible."
"What ancient girl?"
Xie Xuan was about to speak when Ueno Naomi's voice suddenly came from the door.
Ma Tian knew that he had said something he shouldn't have said, so he shrunk his neck and took the opportunity to escape: "Hello, Miss Shangmei, you guys chat, I'll leave first."
After going out, he slapped himself: "Will you still dare to talk nonsense in the future? The boss just reminded me not to cause trouble, but he ended up causing trouble."
Ma Tian knew very well that Naomi Ueno had a crush on Xie Xuan.
If it had been anyone else, Naomi Ueno would have been taken down long ago.
Being able to marry a Japanese who is also a member of the highest military advisory group will be of great help to Xie Xuan.
However, Xie Xuan only got close to Nogo Naomi, but the two did not have that kind of relationship.
Ueno Naomi walked up to Xie Xuan and asked, "Tell me, what ancient girl?"
Xie Xuan said honestly: "I like a girl. I haven't seen her for a while. I miss her."
Ueno Naomi asked: "Has it appeared recently?"
Xie Xuan said: "Yes, I heard that she is in Shenpu, and I plan to go find her next time."
Ueno Naomi said: "Okay, introduce me to her then. I want to see what kind of woman my brother Xuan likes."
Xie Xuan originally thought that it would take some time before he could return to Shenpu, but the next day, Li Junshi asked him to go back to Shenpu immediately for business.
