Chapter 338 Sir! He is a good man
The position of Lei Gang's supervision team was razed to the ground and the flag flew into the sky.
Matsui Minoru saw all this through the telescope and said with satisfaction:
"Yoshi! The Chinese Supervisory Team is dead."
But not long after, ten flags of the supervision team appeared along the coast.
Matsui Minorune sneered, "Xiang Chu is dead! The stupid Chinese actually wanted this commander to waste ammunition. It's just wishful thinking."
Needless to say, his ideas also represent Hasegawa Ao's ideas.
Hasegawa Qing ordered: "China no longer has Xiang Chu's supervision team, so there is no need to waste the Imperial Navy's shells."
Shiro Yamamoto suggested: "Commander, you should inform the Special High Section of Xiang Chu's death so as to persuade them to provide firing parameter information for our naval guns and carrier-based aircraft."
Hasegawa Ao nodded and said, "Notify them! The Imperial Navy cannot lose to those unsophisticated people, humph!"
"Hello!"
Shiro Yamamoto hurriedly accepted the order.
Shanghai, Jiading Yuanxiang Lake.
Because the 88th Division retreated from the Shanghai front and was temporarily resting nearby, the people of the 316th Regiment, led by Battalion Commander Gu Wei, had left Xiang Chu's team.
As the sun set, Xiang Chu ordered the supervision team to camp by the Yuanxiang Lake.
The large number of tents brought out from the landing ship came in handy at this time.
Not far away there is an ancient village with white walls and black tiles, which looks like an ink painting, quiet and beautiful.
Kong Ling took Xiang Chu's hand and said, "Xiang Chu! Let them set up the tent, and we will go to that village for a walk."
"Row!"
Xiang Chu nodded happily.
Ever since he heard that she almost hanged herself because of him, he had been filled with mixed feelings.
In these miserable war years when he didn't know when his life would end, he simply let everything go with the flow...
Kong Ling accompanied him, as happy as a butterfly.
Everything in the countryside was new to her.
Soon, the two men walked into an ancient village with small bridges, flowing water and houses, and immediately forgot about the war.
In the square in front of the ancestral hall, adults were laughing and talking, and children were playing, everything seemed so beautiful.
Xiang Chu and Kong Ling, both in military uniforms, suddenly broke in here, causing the adults' laughter to stop abruptly.
People looked at them warily, and some even quickly left with their children in their arms.
Kong Ling was puzzled: "Strange! Why did they leave when they saw us?"
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "It must be due to injuries from stragglers or some other reason."
At this time, a man in black wearing a bamboo hat came towards them.
Xiang Chu took out a small bag of candy and handed it to Kong Ling, saying with a smile, "Give it to the children."
"it is good!"
Kong Ling smiled.
She took the candy and distributed it to the children, which again caused laughter.
Xiang Chu pretended to watch the situation and took the initiative to walk towards the man in black.
The man in black suddenly reached for his waist. Xiang Chu's hand trembled, and the pistol was already pointed at him. He said coldly:
"You're too slow!"
The man in black said in not very standard Chinese: "Sir! What did you say? I don't understand."
"Just kidding, haha!"
Xiang Chu walked towards him with a laugh and suddenly punched him in the face.
The man in black was caught off guard and fell unconscious to the ground.
"Killed!"
All the villagers screamed in unison and fled in all directions.
Kong Ling stepped forward and asked in confusion: "Xiang Chu! Is this guy a devil?"
"Yes! He just tried to assassinate me."
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and took out the bullets, hand-drawn maps, notebooks, money, etc. from the Japanese spy.
At this time, a white-haired old man in a gray gown walked over.
The old man pointed at the man on the ground and said, "Sir! He is a very good man. As soon as he came here, he helped us repair the house and the road, and gave candy to the naughty children. Please let him go."
Xiang Chu smiled and asked, "What's your name, old man?"
The old man replied, "Sir! I am Zhu Shouliang, the head of Zhujia Village, and a scholar in the Qing Dynasty."
Xiang Chu handed him the hand-drawn map and notebook, and said with a wry smile: "Village Chief Zhu! You must not know that this man is a devil.
Because your village is close to the water source and is located on a major transportation route, in order to support the Japanese troops, he has already learned the situation in your village very clearly. "
Zhu Shouliang took the map and notebook and looked at them. He exclaimed, "Oh my God! He is really a devil. No wonder he gave 10 yuan at a time if he told the soldiers he saw passing by."
Xiang Chu smiled and asked, "Village Chief Zhu! Does he have any accomplices?"
Zhu Shouliang shook his head and said, "No! He lives in the Guan Gong Temple in the east of the village and keeps to himself."
"Okay, thank you."
Xiang Chu smiled.
He took out a silver needle and pierced the Jap agent's fainting point, then picked him up and said with a smile:
"Miss! Let's go back."
"it is good!"
Kong Ling nodded, drew his pistol, followed him cautiously, and said solemnly,
"Your life is my life, I have to protect you."
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "Are you not afraid of your mother's objection now?"
"invalid objection!"
Kong Ling said domineeringly.
The two talked all the way back to Yuanxiang Lake.
At this time, the tent has been set up.
When everyone saw Xiang Chu had captured someone, they immediately surrounded him.
Xiang Chu threw the Japanese agent to the ground and ordered:
"Ning Qiang! Lu Xiong! Tie up this Japanese spy and torture him severely. You must find out where his accomplices are hiding and catch them all in one fell swoop."
"Yes!"
Ning Qiang and Lu Xiong hurriedly accepted the order.
It is really despicable that the Japanese agents actually sneaked into the rear of the Shanghai troops to conduct reconnaissance.
Ning Qiangxue got some big leeches for Dai Nong and let them attach themselves to the bodies of the Japanese agents.
The Japanese agent could not bear this torture and soon confessed:
"My name is Shichiro Miyamoto. During the day, our people collect information about Chinese soldiers entering Shanghai near the main traffic routes, and at night they hide in the basement under the Guandi Temple in the east of Zhujia Village..."
Miyamoto Shichiro, who was afraid of leeches sucking his blood, told everything he knew.
Xiang Chu felt that this devil was of no value, and ordered: "Lao Liu! Take a group to the Guandi Temple east of Zhujia Village immediately. To prevent casualties among the brothers, rush in and shoot and drop bombs directly to eliminate all the devil agents."
"Yes!"
Liu Zhengxiong hurriedly accepted the order.
Soon, gunshots were heard from the east of Zhujia Village.
Xiang Chu glanced at Ning Qiang and Sun Ji.
Ning Qiang and Sun Ji dragged Miyamoto Shichiro to the nearby woods.
"Bang! Bang!" Two gunshots were heard.
Miyamoto Shichiro was shot dead by Ning Qiang and Sun Ji.
Not long after, Liu Zhengxiong returned with a group of people and seized a radio and the latest Japanese telegram code book, as well as some weapons and ammunition, cash, gold bars, etc., a fruitful harvest.
As the Japanese increased their troops in Shanghai, the Chinese troops switched from offense to defense.
The Japanese landing site has already formed at Wusongkou, Chuanshakou and Shizilin.
The next target of the Japanese was Luodian, a strategic location that controlled Shanghai's throat.
The Chinese and Japanese armies fought repeatedly, and corpses piled up like mountains. The battle of Luodian has been called a "meat grinder" by both sides!
When Xiang Chu led the battle team to Shanghai, Kong Ling received and translated a telegram and said with a wry smile:
"Xiang Chu! Minister Chen ordered you to lead the supervision team to rush to Luodian to supervise the battle."
"You've omitted the content. Minister Chen will definitely ask me to send you to the headquarters first."
Xiang Chu smiled, snatched the telegram paper, and indeed sent her to the headquarters first.
Kong Ling said unhappily: "I just want to go to the front line with you."
Xiang Chu scolded: "My eldest lady, I will feel at ease only if you stay in the headquarters, understand?"
Kong Ling smiled and said, "Got it! Xiang Chu! I found that you really care about me."
Xiang Chu didn't know what to say, so he sent her to Minister Chen's command center as quickly as possible.
Minister Chen saw him coming in and said with a wry smile, "Xiang boy! The Japanese mobilized heavy troops, tanks, planes and heavy artillery to attack Luodian. Luodian changed hands several times and was lost again during the day. How can we take it back?"
Xiang Chu said without hesitation:
"Lose it during the day and grab it back at night."
Minister Chen nodded happily and said, "Okay! You will supervise the 201st Brigade to retake Luodian tonight."
"no problem!"
Xiang Chu accepted the order with firmness.
