Lost and Spy

Chapter 747
On the night of June 1938, 6, the wave field detachment attacked Anqing, which marked the official outbreak of the Wuhan battle!

"The Battle of Wuhan will be an arduous defensive battle!" Meng Shaoyuan told his subordinates: "I am sure that this battle will end with the Japanese occupation of Wuhan, but it is also the Battle of Wuhan. The economy, and even the entire national power, will turn from the peak period to the recession period, from strategic offense to strategic defense!"

His subordinates were a little surprised.

The outpost of the Wuhan War has just started, and Director Meng has already predicted so much?

"The front line is fighting, and we should do something." Meng Shaoyuan changed the subject: "Recently, the Japanese have sent a large number of spies and traitors into the public concession to strengthen the power here. The public concession is a good place. This place, everyone wants to come and get a foot in the door, I think it's time to organize a welcome ceremony for these newcomers."

In a word, let everyone involved in the meeting be in high spirits.

This means that Director Meng, who has just returned to Shanghai from northern Jiangsu, is preparing to launch a large-scale operation in Shanghai again.

Wu Jingyi's heart was clear, Meng Shaoyuan was not only thinking about assassinating Japanese traitors, but also wanted to create a chaotic atmosphere in Shanghai and divert the attention of the Japanese while escorting the Soviet pilots.

In other words, Meng Shaoyuan, the "Japanese public enemy", will once again use himself as a bait!
"Leading the newly added agents into Shanghai will be led by Miyamichi Hiroshi..."

As soon as I said this, Ye Rong couldn't help but asked: "Why are there so many commanders? Are the Japanese not willing to send even a general?"

"There is a saying here. This commander is probably equivalent to a colonel." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "It is not easy for an ordinary person to be promoted to the rank of commander, and it is almost impossible to aspire to a higher rank. Yes, it requires corresponding academic qualifications and background. If you have been to the Army University, as long as you have accumulated enough military merits, it is still very easy to be promoted to a general. As for ordinary soldiers or just attended the Army Non-commissioned Officer School Yes, then Colonel is your limit.

Besides, Da Zuo is very popular among the Japanese.Taking the army as an example, becoming a general is equivalent to having three or four thousand people to protect your own safety. All kinds of advanced weapons and equipment will be under your command. You are the supreme commander of a wing. All kinds of living conditions will be improved accordingly, and soldiers will be particularly respected when inspecting troops. "

Therefore, there is a saying in the Japanese army that "I would rather be a commander than a general". Although a large part of the reason is the angry words of those who have no hope of promotion, there is also a certain truth.

Meng Shaoyuan gave a brief introduction: "It's wrong, let's continue to report."

"Yes." Wu Jingyi continued: "Gong Dao Hongshi used to work in North China for a long time. This time he was nominated by Bannai Kangying and sent reinforcements from North China to Shanghai. The spies he brought are used to going smoothly in North China. Gong Dao Hongshi There is a nickname called 'Elite Gongdao', and he himself is very proud of this nickname. As for the Shanghai side, it is because it is a special agent personally nominated by Bannai Yasuhide, and secondly because of the killing of Gomon Yoshikawa. , making them feel sorry for the North China faction, so they acquiesced in the entry of the North China faction..."

"Unwise, very unwise." Meng Shaoyuan smiled lightly: "Shanghai already has enough power, what about the Army, Navy, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and now there is another North China faction? Who is in command? The Army's Matsumoto Hitosuke is also the chief, everyone I am afraid that the only one who can command them is Bannai Yasuhide, the problem is Bannai Yasuhide himself is not justifiable?"

Bannai Yasuhide came to Shanghai with the public task of investigating the cause of Yoshikawa Gomon's death, and he did not have the right to lead the Shanghai secret service.

It was only because he was a general and coupled with his status as a "special envoy" that he suppressed the various factions of Japan in Shanghai.

In addition, the entry of the North China faction is a preliminary deployment of Kenji Doihara to take over Shanghai. The problem is that he, Meng Shaoyuan, knows it well, but the spies in Shanghai don't know it.

Although it is acquiesced for various reasons, however, assistance and resource sharing do not exist, and it is good not to stumbling you overtly or covertly.

"Currently, Gong Dao Hongshi has rented a house in Yuyuan Lane for office and accommodation, which is some distance away from the traitor Chen Lu's home and the arresting house of Jing'an Temple."

Wu Jingyi's words confirmed Meng Shaoyuan's judgment. It stands to reason that the Japanese Army has a secret service agency there, and its office space can be provided for its use.

"After Gong Dao Hongshi entered, he started working soon." Wu Jingyi said immediately: "He said that within one month, the threat posed by Meng Shaoyuan will be resolved, and within three months, the threat of the military command in Shanghai will be completely eliminated."

"Another three months. Haven't you had enough of the lessons of China's demise in three months?"

Meng Shaoyuan sneered: "Kill me, Meng Shaoyuan, within a month. There is such a possibility. I, Meng Shaoyuan, am not invulnerable? Solving the military command in three months? What a fucking idiot's dream. 'Elite palace way'? , this is Shanghai, the public concession, he Japanese can't cover the sky with one hand!"

Gong Dao Hiroshi is going to be unlucky, everyone knows it clearly.

He, Director Meng, has never been right. He said that it is possible to kill him. The problem is that Gong Dao Hongshi challenged Meng Shaoyuan face-to-face. With Director Meng's character, can he bear it?
Meng Shaoyuan calculated in his mind that there was still one month before the establishment of the Doihara Agency, and Bannai Yasuhide and Miyamichi Hiroshi were his advance officers.

The establishment of the Doihara Agency allowed the previously disorganized Japanese intelligence agencies in Shanghai to integrate in the shortest possible time, truly forming a very strong combat effectiveness and posing a huge threat to the military.

I can't always make things go so smoothly.

One is "Elite Gongdao" and the other is "The Strongest Agent on the Surface". They must "join hands" to put on a good show for Shanghai's intelligence community, right?

"Send a few more teams out to fully grasp the information of Gong Dao Hongshi." Meng Shaoyuan has already begun to sharpen his sword: "If there is a chance, it is allowed to do it alone under the condition of ensuring your own safety. Compared with the public concession As far as the whole of China is concerned, it is very small, but it may be the most complicated place. Hiroshi Gongdao has no way to grasp the situation in a short period of time.

Especially without the help of the local secret service agency, his eyes were even darker.Until now, the Japanese secret service agencies have been helpless against me, Meng Shaoyuan. When Hiroshi Gongdao came, he said he would kill me within a month. Doesn’t that mean that his North China faction is much stronger than the local forces in Shanghai?Those spies who have been in Shanghai for such a long time are willing to hear such words? "

"Yes, I'll send someone to handle it immediately." Wu Jingyi said quickly.

Yuan Zhonghe frowned unknown.

Director Meng didn't say who to hand over this task to. Why did she, Wu Jingyi, think that she could be in charge?

Yuan Zhonghe was the first group of people who followed Meng Shaoyuan, and was also Meng Shaoyuan's sworn brother.

This group of people is called the "Bingzi family".

In the Meng Shaoyuan Group, they are the oldest and the strongest.

The group of people like Yue Zhenchuan and Wei Yunzhe are all officials of the frontier and important local officials.

Zhu Yanni in the Bingzi Department is still Meng Shaoyuan's woman.

They have people inside and out.

But the problem is that in Shanghai, Wu Jingyi's "Internal Affairs Department" has an absolute advantage.

All important actions are deployed by her.

Zhao Changle and Guo Rui's "Youth Department" have a good relationship with the elders of the Bingzi Department.

The "Hangzhou Department" of Song Deng, Gan Ning and others is very close to Wu Jingyi.

Now it seems that the "Chongqing Department" of Shen Li, Ye Rong and others also listen to Wu Jingyi's words.

The power of the internal affairs department is too great.

Meng Shaoyuan was not ignorant of Yuan Zhonghe's thoughts.

There are many factions in Meng Shaoyuan's group, which is very similar to the military order.

What's more similar is that as long as Dai Li is still in the army, these factions can be suppressed. No one dares to make troubles openly, and at least they can maintain the appearance of peace.

But if Dai Li is gone, all factions will take the initiative to stand in line in an instant, fighting for power and profit, and fighting.

This is also a very important reason why after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the performance of the military command was far less outstanding than during the Anti-Japanese War.

If Meng Shaoyuan was gone someday, the Bingzi Department, Internal Affairs Department, Youth Department, Hangzhou Department, Chongqing Department, and various factions that would appear one after another in the future would definitely cause earth-shattering disturbances.

Factions.

Among the Japanese, there are more among the Chinese.

Meng Shaoyuan had no way to solve it. He could only suppress them by himself, just like Dai Li suppressed the various factions of the military.

You can't just rely on suppression, you have to give them a little bit of sweetness.

For example, preparing to transfer Yuan Zhonghe to northern Jiangsu is one of the plans.

People in the Bingzi family are all veterans. They have followed Meng Shaoyuan since Nanjing, and most of them are sworn brothers. There is no problem with their loyalty for the time being.

It is safe to let them lead troops outside.

Yuan Zhonghe became a real power faction in a sudden, and he could only be more grateful to Meng Shaoyuan in his heart.And for Wu Jingyi?She also lost the restraint of an old man with seniority far above her.

At the time, Meng Shaoyuan also felt that he was so damn difficult. He had to deal with Japanese traitors and appease the people around him.

In fact, how can I feel better?

There is not only one Meng Shaoyuan in the Shanghai Navy, but there are "Big Three", Zhou Weilong and Cheng Yiming's qualifications and backing are far stronger than themselves.

Since the Battle of Songhu, I have been so popular and made many military exploits that I only know that there is Meng Shaoyuan in Shanghai, but I don't know that there are three giants.

Can Zhou Weilong and Cheng Yiming be happy?
In the past, the district mayor and the secretary were enemies, but if I really threatened their rights, the opponents could join forces.

I have been hit by the enemy.

Meng Shaoyuan really couldn't think of a good way to solve it for a while!

(I forgot to mention in yesterday’s chapter that the prototype of the "Huaxia Four" is a member of the "Fumima Konoe Breakfast Club", Hidemi Ozaki, a close friend of the Japanese Prime Minister Fummaro Konoe, Akiki Yoshino, a senior Japanese spy in China, and Legendary spy Richard Sorge and others. I originally thought about Sorge, but for some reasons, I gave up the idea.)
