Chapter 323 Who will defend the country?

"Boom! Boom!"

The Japanese warship's artillery fire shook the earth and everyone was stunned.

There were sporadic sounds of gunfire coming from the direction of the Huangpu River.

"It's on!"

Dai Nong said in surprise, waving his hand, "Go on your own! Deputy Director Mao stay for a while."

Everyone stood up and left the conference room.

Xiang Chu did not see Ma Chunfang, and asked Wang Senwu anxiously:

"Brother Wang! Chief Ma from the Telecommunications Department didn't come?"

Wang Senwu whispered, "Boy! She has been transferred to the Executive Yuan to replace the Japanese spy Huang Jun."

Jiang Ying smiled and said, "Captain Xiang! I'm in charge of the telecommunications department. Do you want to send a telegram?"

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Yes! I would like to borrow the radio to gather the commandos."

"come on!"

Jiang Ying said with a smile.

Xiang Chu followed Jiang Ying to the telecommunications room and personally sent a telegram to the three groups to assemble:

"Each group will select 300 elites and rush to the Beijing-Shanghai Garrison Command overnight. Yang Jiang will lead some backbone members of Group to stay behind to assist Mao Feng in continuing to control the Taihu Detachment. The remaining personnel of Groups and will stay in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang Special Operations Team and be under the personal command of the Director. Xiang Chu!"

After Xiang Chu sent the telegram, he said to Jiang Ying: "Thank you, Sister Jiang!"

Jiang Ying praised: "Captain Xiang! I didn't expect you to generate electricity so quickly."

Xiang Chu praised: "Sister Jiang, you are too kind! You are the power generation expert."

He walked out of the telecommunications room and told Kong Kong and Zhang Linmao to go to the Beijing-Shanghai Garrison Command first to find a residence or a suitable place for camping nearby, and then he drove back to the International Settlement alone.

The public concession had been blocked at this time. If Xiang Chu had not forgotten to bring his important items with him and had not wanted to create the illusion that the Yamada leader and Fujiwara Daisuke had left the Chuyue Hotel, he would have been too lazy to return to the concession.

He drove to a secluded place, changed into Thousand Faces Kui Ge's outfit and continued driving.

As the car drove into the British Concession checkpoint, a policeman immediately came forward to check it.

When the police saw him, they let him go without saying a word.

"It seems that in the British Concession, Brother Qianmian Kui is more useful than Xiang Chu from the Military Intelligence and Police Department."

Xiang Chu thought to himself, drove slowly into the concession and headed straight for Chuyue Hotel.

Because of the influx of a large number of Chinese people, the concession is now full of people.

Moreover, many people have no place to live, and the whole family is squeezed under someone else's roof, with nothing to eat or drink. It is really pitiful.

Xiang Chu felt very uncomfortable, and thought to himself: "We still have to let Yi Lao and the others provide relief and settlement."

The people who entered the concession were a mixed bunch, and the Japanese spies, who were afraid that the concession would not be in chaos, took advantage of the situation and came to stir up trouble.

Xiang Chu drove up to Chuyue Hotel and suddenly saw fireworks flickering on the roof of a two-story building not far away.

"Is there an assassin lying in wait?"

Xiang Chu's heart trembled, and he hurriedly continued to drive forward, and deliberately drove the car to the right side of the road (vehicles in the British Concession drove on the left), entering the blind spot of the opponent's sniper, to see if the fireworks were moving.

Sure enough, the fireworks on the roof moved with the movement of the vehicles.

Xiang Chu quickly drove the car to the left, opened the door, got out and rushed out.

"Bang! Bang!" twice.

The killer on the roof fired two shots at the vehicle, hitting the ground.

Needless to say, he knew that Xiang Chu had noticed it, so he took action in advance.

"Bang! Bang!" twice.

At the same time, Xiang Chu also shot the killer twice.

His luck was not as good as Xiang Chu's, and he was hit before changing position.

Xiang Chu rushed towards the small building, stepped on the windowsill and jumped up, quickly climbing onto the rooftop platform.

A masked killer was shot in the head, with a Japanese sniper rifle lying nearby.

Xiang Chu looked around, pulled off the mask, and found that it was a middle-aged man.

He searched the man's body and found nothing except some banknotes and sniper bullets.

He examined the man's physical features and confirmed that he was undoubtedly a Japanese soldier, and most likely a retired veteran or a police officer from the Hongkou Police Station.

"They were probably sent by the Japanese Special High Section!"

Xiang Chu thought to himself, and before the owner of the house came up to investigate, he picked up the sniper rifle and jumped onto the roof of the building next door.

He jumped off the roof, returned to the car, continued driving forward, and after a circle, returned to Chuyue Hotel.

Hongkou District, the Japanese Special High Section.

Awei Wenzhi asked doubtfully: "Yunzi! Did you really see Xiang Chu appear in Chuyue Hotel?"

Zhuzi Yunzi nodded and said, "Yes, teacher. Yunzi almost fell into his hands a few days ago, so he sent assassins to eliminate him."

Awei Wenzhi said with great concern: "Fortunately, you didn't fall into the hands of that Chinese playboy, otherwise you would have been destroyed by him."

"definitely!"

Takeshita Yunzi said with deep conviction that dirty thoughts arose in her heart.

"Yunzi doesn't mind being destroyed by such a handsome man."

Awei Wenzhi looked at the wall clock and shook his head, "It seems that the assassin you sent out still failed to kill Xiang Chu."

Takeshita Yunzi said bitterly: "If Abe Jushiro fails, Yunzi decided to snipe Xiang Chu herself."

Awei Fumio grabbed her hand and said lustfully, "No! Teacher is reluctant to let Yunzi take risks, so let the thirteen brothers in front of Abe Jushiro go and assassinate her."

"Section Chief! There's an urgent call."

Zheng Zhili's voice sounded outside the door.

Awei Wenzhi quickly retracted his old hand, moved away from Takeshita Yunzi, sat up straight and said loudly:

"Chiyo-kun, please come in!"

"Teacher! Yunzi is leaving."

Takeshita Yunko left the room in a panic.

Zheng Zhili handed the telegram to Awei Wenzhi and said with a wry smile: "Section Chief! The Ministry of Internal Affairs asked us to cooperate with the Navy's operations and launch a full-scale assassination operation against senior Chinese officers in Shanghai while collecting intelligence."

After reading the telegram, Awei Fumio nodded and said, "Chiyo-kun! Report this telegram to Kusumoto Saneryu and ask him to recruit the Overseas Chinese Suicide Squad and the China Axe Gang to participate in this assassination operation."

"Hello!"

Zheng Zhili hurriedly accepted the order and asked weakly,

"Section Chief! Where does General Kusumoto live?"

Awei Wenzhi said without hesitation: "East Asia Tongwen College! You don't have to run errands, just make a phone call to report."

After he finished speaking, he tore off a piece of paper, wrote a phone number on it and handed it to Zheng Zhili.

"Thank you for your concern, Section Chief!"

Zheng Zhili said gratefully.

Chuyue Hotel, A-di's room.

Yu Xiaowan snatched the sniper rifle seized by Xiang Chu and said happily:

"Brother Chu! Consider this sniper rifle as a token of love from you to me."

Xiang Chu said angrily: "Who uses a gun as a love gift?"

Yu Xiaowan said tenderly: "I like it!"

At this time, the radio transmission sounded.

Xiang Chu hurriedly sat down in front of the radio station to transcribe and translate the message:

"My benefactor! Kusumoto Sanryu lives in Toa Dobun College. He recruited the Axe Gang to help the Special High Section assassinate high-ranking military officers. Angelica!"

"East Asia Tongwen Academy?!"

When Xiang Chu saw this name, he thought of Bao Dao’s Japanese girlfriend, Haruko Xiaolu, who happened to be also studying at East Asia Tongwen College.

Yu Xiaowan leaned in to read the message and said angrily, "Brother Chu! The battle hasn't even started yet, and the Axe Gang has surrendered to the enemy?"

Xiang Chu burned the telegram paper and said angrily: "Axe Gang! I will go and destroy you now."

Yu Xiaowan said anxiously, "Don't be so anxious. It's not a good idea for you to go right after the undercover agent sent a telegram."

Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "Alas! That's just talk. I have to go to the front line to supervise the battle, so I can only send others to destroy it."

Yu Xiaowan threw herself into his arms and cried, "Brother Chu! Are you going to the front again?"

Xiang Chu consoled her, "Xiao Wan! If no one goes to the front line, who will defend the country?"

"Yeah! Go ahead."

Yu Xiaowan nodded heavily.
