Wind Chaser: Rebirth in the 18th Year of the Republic of China

"Qingtang knows his mistake," Shen Qingtang bowed to the elders to apologize, and looked at Shen Jinzhen with a better attitude, "It's not necessary, the family has prepared food in advance."

Since they encountered a war with Japan a few years ago, the Shen family has stockpiled food, clothing and other resources in advance so that they will not be caught off guard by the outbreak of war.

The clan elder was not as cold as Shen Qingtang. Instead, he expressed his gratitude to Shen Jinzhen with a smile, and wrote a letter to Shen Tunan, asking him to pass it on to Shen Jinzhen, saying that he was well at home and not to worry.

"Don't worry. The Shen family has its roots here. Their century-old foundation will not be destroyed by war. However, the concession has not given up on the Red Army's arrest because of the war. You still have to be careful."

Shen Jinzhen seldom comes to the old house, so even if her identity is exposed, her family members will not be angered. On the contrary, Shen Tuanan grew up with her and would be easily implicated.

"Okay, I'll come back to see you when I have time."

Shen Jinzhen bowed to the clan elders and turned to leave.

Shen Qingtang looked at her from behind and said somewhat dissatisfiedly, "I can let Shen Jinzhen off the hook, but Shen Tunan, that kid, relied on the Shen family to make a fortune, and later became a little famous. I don't even know his last name anymore."

The elder of the clan slammed his cane on the ground to express his dissatisfaction and defended Shen Tunan, "Doesn't Tunan send money and New Year's gifts home every year? You can't hold it against him just because he had a few arguments with you when you were young."

Shen Qingtang is nearly ten years older than Shen Tunan. The two can barely be considered to be of the same age group. However, because they both have straightforward personalities and dislike each other for many things, they had many quarrels when they were young.

Seeing that the elder was about to nag again, Shen Qingtang couldn't help but find an excuse to slip away.

Back at the entrance and exit of the concession, Shen Jinzhen took a lot of effort to squeeze to the front and hand in her pass. The concession patrol let her go after a careful inspection, allowing her to return to the concession smoothly.

Shen Jinzhen reported the status of the delivered letters to his brother. After seeing the letters from the elders at home, Shen Tuanan asked about the disaster situation at that time.

"There are no signs of bombing over there, but the situation in Zhabei District is very serious. Tangjia Lane has been occupied by the enemy, the Hubei Industrial Inspection and Donation Bureau has been razed to the ground, and there are traces of bullets left by the battle between the two sides on the surrounding streets."

Shen Jinzhen glanced from a distance, but the gunfire was too frequent, so he didn't dare to move forward.

Hearing this, Shen Tunan became a little worried. The Nationalist government had sent so many people, but the situation in Zhabei District had not improved. In fact, the number of casualties continued to increase, and the soldiers' pensions and military pay had not been paid.

"Brother, don't worry. Didn't you say that as long as the Nationalist government dares to fight, it will be easy to win?"

The number of troops sent by the National Government was several times that of the Japanese army, and the Japanese army had no military supplies and lacked stamina, so it was not difficult for the National Government to capture Shanghai.

Shen Tunan put the envelope down, took out another piece of intelligence from the drawer, and handed it to Jin Zhen, "The intercepted Japanese confidential document, the 'fight to support war' plan."

Seeing the letter in his brother's hand, Shen Jinzhen hesitated for a moment, but still took it and opened it to read.

The handwriting on the letter was in the delicate Yan style, and the enemy's plan was written in great detail, which basically said that there was no need for our country to ship too many supplies, and that they could fight and plunder our resources at the same time.

"Was this seized from the traitors?"

This font is not Japanese, and the writing skills look like it took years of practice.
