Chapter 322 It seems that I have to fight the entire war

Due to weather and other factors, the Foreign Minister's plane returned directly to Nanjing.

Xiang Chu and Ning Buqu's trip was not in vain, as they watched the provocative actions of the Japanese.

The two returned to Chuyue Hotel, and Long Ling said hurriedly:

"Counselor Ning! Mayor Yu asked you to go to the conference room to negotiate with the Japanese side."

Ning Buqu asked doubtfully: "We still need to negotiate with the Japanese?"

Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "We will definitely negotiate about what happened at Hongqiao."

"How can it be so fast?"

Ning Buqu shook his head.

"Still not convinced?"

Xiang Chu shook his head and walked through the secret passage at the back back to A-di's room.

Yu Xiaowan rushed forward, pinched his face, then hugged him tightly and cried:

"Brother Chu! You've been gone for a few days, and Xiaowan thought you were gone again. Woohoo!"

"Xiao Wan! Why do you cry so easily?"

Xiang Chu scolded her, and seeing how pitiful she looked, he couldn't bear to push her away.

"Lin Daiyu!"

Yu Xiaowan said self-deprecatingly.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"It's really not the right time!"

Yu Xiaowan reluctantly left his arms and walked into the inner room.

Xiang Chu opened the door, and Ning Buqu smiled bitterly and said, "You are right. The Japanese side has proposed negotiations and asked us to compensate, apologize, and withdraw our troops. Please help me send a message to the Ministry and ask for instructions."

Xiang Chu said angrily: "The Japanese navy broke into the post and shot and died, and they blame us?"

Ning Buqu shook his head and said, "Hurry up and send a message. There's a huge noise in the conference room right now, and Mayor Yu is waiting for me to come over."

"immediately!"

Xiang Chu hurried to the radio station and began to send messages as he instructed.

Soon, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs replied: "After consultation, we absolutely do not agree to compensation, apology, or concession of interests!"

Xiang Chu asked in confusion: "Huh?! Sir, you have never been so tough before."

Ning Buqu nodded and said, "Are you sure? Ask again, is it true?"

"Row!"

Xiang Chu nodded and quickly sent a telegram to ask: "Is the previous message true?"

Soon, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs responded: “Of course it is true!”

"I'm done!"

Ning Buqu smiled bitterly and ran out with the telegram.

Soon, the sound of the Japs cursing and cars driving away could be heard downstairs.

Yu Xiaowan walked out of the inner room and said with a wry smile: "It seems that the negotiations have collapsed."

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Yes! The result of the breakdown of negotiations is war."

Yu Xiaowan said worriedly: "Brother Chu! You are not going to the battlefield too, are you?"

"Of course I have to!"

Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and paused.

“Who can stay out of this war?”

Yu Xiaowan hugged him tightly and said angrily:

"Then I will go with you, even if we die together."

Xiang Chu scolded: "Don't say unlucky words!"

Yu Xiaowan said firmly: "I am a Chinese and a member of the Communist Party. I must do my part in the war of resistance."

Xiang Chu thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Wan! There are a lot of female college and high school students joining the army now. Why not send them all to Jishi Hospital and you can be responsible for training them in battlefield rescue."

"Okay! Great."

Yu Xiaowan jumped for joy.

Without further ado, Xiang Chu immediately called Hongyi:

"Hongyi! Send the female college and high school students who are joining the army to Jishi Hospital tomorrow morning to attend the battlefield first aid training course organized by Dean Yu."

"Yes!"

Hongyi hurriedly accepted the order and said,

"Captain! I just received a notification from Ren Jie's secretary saying that the director has arrived at the Shanghai Intelligence Station and asked you to go over for a meeting."

"Okay! I'll be right there."

Xiang Chu nodded, hung up the phone quickly, and said to Yu Xiaowan,

"Xiao Wan! I'm going out for a while."

"Brother Chu! You should have said this."

Yu Xiaowan smiled, sat down at her desk, picked up a piece of paper and a pen,

"Go quickly, I need to prepare for tomorrow's training."

"Very good! You have entered the state of resistance."

Xiang Chu praised, picked up the car keys, turned around and walked out of A-di's room.

He called Zhang Linmao and Kong Kong, and the three of them drove straight to the Shanghai Intelligence Station.

The car drove out of the concession and entered the Kuomintang-occupied area.

Outside the concession, the scene was completely different.

The Chinese people were in a panic, and many people fled Shanghai overnight.

Of course, there were also people who wanted to squeeze into the concession but were stopped by the police.

Xiang Chu sighed, "The people are weak and poor. How pitiful! Alas!"

Zhang Linmao said bitterly: "The Japs are nothing!"

Kong Kong put his hands together and said, "Good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be punished with evil!"

The roads along the way were filled with people fleeing overnight.

Soon, the car arrived at the Shanghai Intelligence Station.

Xiang Chu walked into the gate of the Shanghai Intelligence Station and found that there were people living at the entrance.

Because the military and police were mobilized in full force, the Shanghai Intelligence Station was overcrowded.

The stationmaster Cai Huawen’s office naturally became Dai Nong’s office.

At this time, a meeting was going on in the conference room on the second floor and the discussion was very intense.

Because the door was full of people, Xiang Chu was too lazy to go in.

Mao Feng was talking loudly: "Director! The Jiangsu-Zhejiang Rangers now have nearly 3 people. You should be the commander-in-chief and take full control of this force as the fist of our military police department."

Lei Gang echoed loudly: "Yes! The director is the commander-in-chief, and we will hold important positions and fully control this force."

Dai Nong shook his head and said, "We still have to listen to Xiang Chu's opinion on this matter. After all, he is the one who organized the team."

Tang Cong couldn't help but sneer, "Director! Xiang Chu hasn't come yet, why are we still listening to his advice?"

"I came earlier and have no objection."

Xiang Chu shouted loudly and squeezed into the meeting room.

Dai Nong laughed and scolded: "You kid! You came here without saying a word, what do you want to do?"

Xiang Chu said with a smile: "Listen to the leaders' speeches. Haha!"

When everyone heard him and Dainong joking like that, they felt that their relationship was unusual.

Dai Nong said sternly, "Captain Xiang! The department just discussed it and it is determined that your special forces have successfully completed their initial mission. Your next task will be to supervise the battle at the front."

"Yes!"

Xiang Chu gladly accepted the order, but secretly groaned inwardly.

"It looks like I'll have to fight the entire battle."

Mao Feng praised: "Captain Xiang! Everyone thought you would negotiate the conditions, but I didn't expect you to be so straightforward."

Xiang Chu said solemnly: "This is a battle that will determine the fate of China. I have no choice but to carry it out resolutely."

"very good!"

Dai Nong nodded in praise, paused, and explained specifically,

"Xiang Chu! It was Chen Cheng, Zhang Zhong, Zhang Kui and other officers who collectively proposed to let you be in charge of supervising the battle at the high-level military meeting. You should lead the special forces to report to Minister Zhang tomorrow."

"Yes!"

Xiang Chu accepted the order with firmness.

Dai Nong shook his head and said, "Captain Xiang! The master said that if you fail to supervise the battle effectively, you will be shot."

"real?!"

Xiang Chu was stunned.

Mao Feng deliberately said, "Commander! Don't the Rangers have to supervise every major battle?"

Dai Nong nodded and said, "Of course!"

Lei Gang couldn't hide his joy and said with a smile: "Some people will definitely be shot if we lose the battle."

"Boom!" There was a loud noise.

Suddenly, there was a sound of artillery explosion from the sea.

Everyone panicked and the situation became chaotic.

Xiang Chu shouted, "It's far away! We are just covering the landing of the Marines."

Dai Nong was very calm and asked thoughtfully: "Xiang Chu! What caliber of shells did the devils fire? How powerful is it?"

Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "The maximum caliber of the Japanese warships' naval guns is 400mm, and there are also 305mm and 240mm caliber cannons. A single shot can almost wipe out an entire company, so don't gather in a large group."

Dai Nong was surprised and said, "It's so powerful, what should we do?"

Xiang Chu thought for a moment and said, "Director! You should report to Mr. Li that we should avoid the Japanese naval vessels and retreat to the Wufu Line and Xicheng Line to fight."

Dai Nong shook his head and said, "I don't want to be shot. Oh, by the way! Why didn't you mention it in your debate report?"

Xiang Chu said anxiously: "Of course! Try to avoid fighting with the Japanese navy."

Mao Feng asked curiously: "How to fight the Japanese navy?"

Xiang Chu smiled mysteriously and said, "Throw more mines into the Yangtze River and Hangzhou Bay, or send some frogmen to blow up the ships to scare away the Japanese navy warships."

Everyone praised: "What a good idea! A mine costs only a few dollars, and it is very cost-effective to sink a Japanese warship."

Dainong knocked on the table and shouted, "Everyone! Don't get sidetracked. We need to study spy warfare now."

Xiang Chu said anxiously: "Director! Since my mission is to supervise the battle, I have to gather the special forces immediately. There are still tens of thousands of Taihu detachments in Taihu. Who will go to command the battle?"

Dai Nong asked, "Who will go to Taihu to command the battle?"

"I go!"

Except for Mao Feng, everyone in the conference room raised their hands.

Everyone knows that Taihu Lake is the rear line, far away from the coast, and is not afraid of the terrifying naval artillery bombardment.

Dai Nong smiled and said, "Everyone! I actually wanted to know who will go to Taihu to command the battle. Since you all raised your hands and said no, then Deputy Director Mao should lead the troops himself."

"it is good!"

Mao Feng gladly accepted the order.

Everyone was shocked and cursed Dainong as an old fox in their hearts.
