Chapter 1026: We should listen to his important information
Minister Chen said with a smile: "Boy! I was just kidding you. But if you want to leave, can some of your capable subordinates stay with you?"
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "It's all voluntary, but they are used to following me all over the world, no one will be willing to stay."
Minister Chen nodded and said, "Okay! You can do a statistics. Those who want to stay are welcome. Those who don't want to stay are not forced. They are free to come and go."
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Yes! Thank you, Minister, for understanding us."
Minister Chen said solemnly: "Compared to the front line, you are more needed behind enemy lines."
Many Japanese steamships, speedboats, etc. were sunk on the Yangtze River.
There were also downed Japanese planes emitting black smoke among the mountains and forests.
A large number of Japanese soldiers' corpses floated downstream, announcing their defeat.
The Japanese invaders' first large-scale westward advance along the Yangtze River ended in failure.
The so-called annihilation of the entire army was an exaggeration made by the Jiang Defense Force.
A cave on the cliff by the river is the front-line command post of the 34th Army.
Liu Zhengxiong was looking through the telescope carefully and said with a smile:
"Lao Gan! I think we are pretty powerful. Our land defense can stop the Japanese, and our river defense can also repel the Japanese."
Gan Rong smiled bitterly and said, "The commander's strategy was in place. We returned to defend in time and had plenty of time to dig and build defensive fortifications."
Liu Zhengxiong said angrily, "Forget about that guy. After this battle, we will definitely have to go back behind enemy lines to deal with the devils. I really don't want to go. Why don't you not go too? Let's stay here and stop the devils."
Gan Rong shook his head and said, "No! The commander has shown me kindness, helped me to be reborn, and saved my life. I will always follow him."
Liu Zhengxiong scolded: "I think you have been successfully brainwashed by him."
Gan Rong smiled and said, "Okay! I'll tell the commander later that you're willing to stay and fight the devils."
Lan Cheng received the telegram from Xiang Chu and reported loudly:
"Lao Liu! Taoist Gan! The boss asked us to count which of us who followed him were willing to stay and continue fighting the Japanese, and which were willing to follow him back behind enemy lines."
Liu Zhengxiong was slapped in the face too quickly, and smiled awkwardly, "Well! That guy will lose his direction without me to help him steer the ship, so I'd better go back behind enemy lines."
Gan Rong smiled and said, "I know you are joking with me. How can you bear to leave your sister-in-law in Dalian behind enemy lines?"
Liu Zhengxiong nodded and said, "Yes! We Dalian people are honest."
At this moment, Wei Feng rushed in and said anxiously:
"Old Liu! Taoist Gan! The situation is not good. I just led my troops to chase the Japanese and came face to face with a Japanese agent from the Shanghai Special High Section named Shigeo Doihara. I accidentally let him slip away."
Liu Zhengxiong was puzzled: "No way! How could the devils from Shanghai Special High Section come to the front line?"
Gan Rong said angrily: "We are also agents, so why don't we go to the front line?"
Liu Zhengxiong nodded and said, "That's right! Lao Wei! Is Shigeo Doihara familiar with you?"
Wei Feng shook his head and said, "Not very familiar with him. I just saw him once on the playground when I sent the boss to the Shanghai Special High School. We even played basketball for a while."
Liu Zhengxiong yelled, "Get lost! We've played basketball together but you're still not familiar with each other?"
Wei Feng smiled bitterly and said, "There are 20 people fighting for a basketball, and he may not remember me."
Gan Rong asked in confusion: "Why are there so many people playing basketball in the Shanghai Special High Section?"
Wei Feng smiled and said, "They were competing with No. 76. In order to win the game, Nan Zao Yunzi ordered 15 people to fight against the other 5 people. At that time, there was one person missing. Seeing that I was tall, she called me up to replace him."
"what?!"
Liu Zhengxiong and Gan Rong were stunned.
Lan Cheng heard this and said anxiously, "Brother Wei! You should report this to the boss right away. The agents have all been trained and most of them have photographic memories."
Wei Feng nodded and said, "Okay!"
Liu Zhengxiong said thoughtfully: "Why do I forget things as soon as I see them?"
Gan Rong shook his head and said, "The commander must let Wei Feng stay. We also need talents like him who can fight mountain warfare."
Wuhan, the office of the commander of the Japanese 11th Army.
Sonobe Kawaichiro was holding a bottle of Erguotou and drinking it.
Ever since Reiko Suzuki left, he has been numbing himself with alcohol.
He hoped that this would help him stop thinking about the wild woman that was haunting his dreams.
However, whenever he got drunk, he would search the headquarters for Suzuki Reiko, mistaking all the young female Japanese officers for Suzuki Reiko.
He attempted to commit indecent acts many times but failed, and was attacked, causing his two front teeth to be knocked out, leaving him with slurred speech.
At this time, the new aide-de-camp Suzuki Reika arrived at the office door and reported loudly:
"Commander! Your friend has sent a large number of books from North China. Please help him sell them in the army. There will be a reward for you."
Suzuki Reika is the younger brother of Suzuki Reiko and is highly regarded by Sonobe Kawaichiro.
Sonobe Kawaichiro nodded and said, "Aihua! What book is that? Show it to the commander."
Suzuki Reika handed over a thick book and consoled him, "Commander! Don't worry about my sister. She will come back to you sooner or later after making some progress out there."
Sonobe Kawaichiro took the book, his eyes sparkling, and said happily, "Really?"
Suzuki Reika said against her will: "My sister always said that you are her true love."
"Great!"
Sonobe Kawaichiro was overjoyed, and hurriedly took the book and read aloud:
"A model of combat against the Chinese Eighth Route Army, compiled and printed by Kenji Doihara."
"Crack!" There was a sound.
He threw the book on the ground and shouted:
"Baka! The damned Kenji Doihara actually published a book."
Suzuki Reika smiled mysteriously and said, "Commander! Why don't you change Doihara Kan'er's name to your own, and then keep all the money from the sale."
Sonobe Kawaichiro laughed and said, "Yoshi! This is a great idea. This commander will make sure that Doihara Kan'er loses all his money. Haha!"
At this time, a captain reported loudly at the door of the office:
"Commander! Shigeo Doihara wants to see you. I have important information to report."
Sonobe Kawaichiro didn't expect that there was someone standing at the door, and he was from the Doihara family.
Alcohol made him feel horrified when he heard the three words "Doihara" and he said in a cold voice:
"Captain Doihara! Please come in."
Shigeo Doihara bowed his head and said, "Commander! I am General Doihara, who was transferred from the Shanghai Special High Section to work under you to collect intelligence on China.
This time I participated in the Yichang battle and found that....”
With a "bang".
The angry Sonobe Kawaichiro smashed the bottle on his head.
Shigeo Doihara was hit on the head and bleeding, and he fainted on the ground immediately.
Sonobe Kawaichiro thought he had been crushed to death, and shouted:
"Linghua! This man wants to assassinate the commander. Execute him."
"Bang! Bang!" twice.
Suzuki Reika shot Shigeo Doihara in the heart with one shot and shot another shot at the vase behind Kawaichiro Sonobe, then stuffed the gun into Shigeo Doihara's hand.
He smiled and said, "Commander! This is the most realistic scene."
Sonobe Kawaichiro was sobered up by the gunshot and said thoughtfully:
"What a shame! I should have listened to him finish the important information."
