"Your Excellency, General."

"Hahara-kun, please be seated."

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Koichi Habara sat down respectfully.

Why did His Excellency the General suddenly summon him?

"Hahara-kun, I summoned you alone today because there are some things I want to tell you." Itachi Yasuying's face was serious: "On the battlefield of Xuzhou, our army is fighting fiercely, in order to ensure victory, the command headquarters urgently dispatched a batch of tear gas weapons from Shanghai and Nanjing to reinforce it, but this information, the people of China have already mastered it." ”

The so-called tear gas weapon is actually tear gas.

Most of the poison gas bombs used by the Japanese army in China were less erosive and nerve gas.

This is not because the Japanese are more humanitarian, but because they have a lower ability to use chemical weapons and defend against chemical weapons.

The requirements for erosive and nerve gas use are high, and the Japanese army often fails to meet them.

The anti-chemical equipment equipped by the Japanese soldiers was relatively backward, and once they failed to harm others, they could easily cause great damage to themselves, for example, the Japanese army itself could not deal with nerve gas, and they were not sure to deal with erosive poison gas.

But tear gas, the Japanese army can still effectively deal with it, and their gas masks can effectively protect it.

"It's another intelligence leak." Koichi Hawara's tone was still very calm: "Since the start of the war, there have been frequent incidents of intelligence leaks, and there has been a lot of information transmitted from Shanghai. According to my analysis, our enemies in Shanghai are far more than Meng Shaoyuan, and there is far more than one traitor hidden among us! ”

"As with my analysis, that's what worries me the most."

Itachi Yasuei also behaved very calmly: "The enemy's agents are very powerful, but our undercover personnel have also made their own contributions to the war. Although the information on tear gas, that is, reinforcements to the front, was leaked, the front command of China did not receive this information. ”

Hikaru Habara was stunned one by one, and then reacted.

It must have been the spies of the Empire lurking in the people of China, who managed to stop or even intercept this information and send it to the former enemy commander of China.

The front line is fighting fiercely, and the intelligence front is also fighting to the death.

On the one hand, they are desperate to send the information out, but on the other hand, they are doing their best to prevent the information from falling into the hands of the corresponding personnel.

The intensity of the fight on this silent front is even more fierce than that of the frontal battlefield.

"Please salute the Shina agents lurking in the hearts of the Shina people." Koichi Habara didn't ask much at all: "We can't live up to their efforts!" With valiant Imperial agents, the Empire is invincible! ”

Itachi Kangying smiled, with a bit of helplessness and sarcasm in his smile: "Despite this, Yuwang Mountain, the key place on the Xuzhou front, the only northern position we occupied, was lost. ”

"Oh, the imperial soldiers guarding Yuwang Mountain must have gone through the most tragic battle."

"No, the Dian army of China captured Yuwang Mountain without much effort."

"What?"

Koichi Habara was incredulous.

The combat effectiveness of the Dian army is so strong?

"Do you believe in fate, Hahara-kun?" Itachi Yasuei smiled bitterly: "The reason why Yuwang Mountain was lost was because of those tear jerking weapons. ”

Hikaru Habara was confused one by one.

This is the most ironic scene in the entire Chinese anti-Japanese battlefield.

The tear gas of the Japanese army arrived at the Xuzhou battlefield in the shortest possible time.

The so-called Yuwang Mountain is not a mountain at all in the eyes of Yunnan people, it is completely a small dirt slope!

Yuwang Mountain is an important fulcrum on the periphery of Taierzhuang, and the radius is only a few miles.

Legend has it that the ancient Yu had lived here when he ruled the water, hence the name.

Although Yuwang Mountain is small, it is one of the few commanding heights on the Lunan Plain, and its strategic location is extremely important. From the hill, you can overlook the entire Taierzhuang and the Grand Canal.

As long as Yuwang Mountain is held, the Japanese army will not be able to calmly move south to occupy Taierzhuang, and it is also an important fulcrum to ensure the breakthrough of the national army.

At that time, part of the position north of Yuwang Mountain had been captured by the Japanese army, and the Dian army first needed to counterattack to completely recapture the position.

The Dian army then took the initiative to attack the Japanese army on the periphery of Yuwang Mountain.

As a result, the two regiments of the 184th Division, which was the most fully manned, attacked in an all-out manner with the assistance of a battalion of the 16th Artillery Regiment.

The Japanese commander then decided:

The use of chemical weapons.

The wind was blowing in favor of the Dian army, and the Japanese commander decided to launch a counter-charge immediately after the release of chemical weapons.

In the eyes of the Japanese commanders, the Yunnan Dian Army was a backward monkey soldier, where would there be any anti-poison equipment. Once it encounters a poison gas attack, the Dian army will definitely be in chaos, and the Japanese army will naturally win when it takes the opportunity to attack.

However, the level of chemical weapons of the Japanese army was still at the level of World War I. When they released a large amount of smoke through the chemical barrel, they did not expect the wind to change suddenly.

The poisonous fog completely blew into the Japanese position, and the Japanese army was suddenly in chaos, officers and soldiers looked for gas masks everywhere, and everywhere there were the sound of Japanese officers and soldiers coughing and crying loudly, and even rolling on the ground.

At this time, the soldiers of the Yunnan army did not know that the Japanese army had released chemical weapons and immediately launched a charge.

The Japanese army harmed others but did not harm themselves, and was rushed all the way by the Yunnan army, unable to stand on its ground at all, and retreated in defeat, and the position of Yuwang Mountain was fully recovered.

Hikaru Habara was stunned when he heard this.

Providence?

"This." Hikaru Habara said after a while, "It's really impossible to hold anyone responsible. If the people of China can receive that information smoothly, then the Dian army will definitely be afraid of our tear-jerking weapons, and they will not attack so unscrupulously, and the position north of Yuwang Mountain will not be lost either! ”

The question is, who is responsible?

No one is responsible.

The Japanese undercover intelligence officers did their best to prevent important information from reaching the Chinese commanders.

They have a great merit.

Japanese front-line commanders?

How could they have imagined that the wind would suddenly change?

How could they have thought of the chemical weapons they had unleashed and killed themselves?

They are equally not responsible!

"In ancient times, the weather and the direction of the wind were very important factors in warfare. Therefore, the Three Kingdoms period of the Chinese has the story of Zhuge Liang borrowing the east wind. Itachi shook his head: "Now, there are warships in the sea, tanks on land, and planes in the sky. Who would have thought that the direction of the wind, which had long since become insignificant, would become a magic weapon for victory? ”

Could it be that God is also helping the Dian army and helping the people?

This idea had just appeared in Koichi Hahara's mind, and he immediately denied it himself.

"We have no control over the fighting on the front." Itachi Yasushi said in a heavy tone: "The intelligence was leaked from Shanghai, and in view of the continuous intelligence leaks that have occurred before, I think that our main energy now should not be how to deal with the military commanders, but to investigate what is going on inside us, and how many hidden spies are there inside us?" Only by digging out these moths can we carry out intelligence work with confidence. Habara-kun. ”

He glanced at Koichi Habara: "General Dohihara recommended you to me, thinking that you are a rare intelligence officer. However, your qualifications are too shallow, your connections are not extensive, and you are transferred to Shanghai from other places, so you will definitely encounter a lot of obstacles in your work, but now that I am your backstage, you can do it freely. ”

Habara Koichi suddenly perked up: "If you and General Dohihara have the support, then my confidence will definitely increase." ”

"It's not about increasing faith, it's about getting rid of all the moths." Yasuei Itauchi said heavily: "You can do whatever you want and mobilize any people you want. As for the relationship between the Navy and the consulate, I will be responsible for coordinating it for you, and my only task is to provide you with security. ”

"Understood, Your Excellency." Koichi Hawara replied very firmly.

"There is a Chen Rongyang in the consulate, what about the army? Who are the moths inside our Army intelligence? As a veteran spy, Itachi Yasuei said slowly: "And the navy, what is going on with the assassination of the New Asia Hotel?" Are there any problems inside the Navy? Hahara-kun, I shudder when I think about it.

For this reason, after returning to Japan, General Tsuchihara paid a special visit to Admiral Kaneda Shiba of the Naval Command Department and His Excellency Rihachiro Sakanishi of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. You also mentioned this issue at the meeting earlier, the contradiction between us. Army, Navy. Foreign ministry!

Therefore, I will convey to you a separate message, and you can not worry, the three Excellencies believe that no matter what contradictions exist between them, in the intelligence community, there must be a thunderous reform. The three of you will become a specialized agency to direct intelligence work, and before that, you can start taking action! ”

If Meng Shaoyuan was here now, hearing these words, he would know that the intelligence work of the Japanese had finally begun to change dramatically.

Soon, the Japanese intelligence community, especially in Shanghai, will no longer be scattered and fighting on their own, and there will be too many contradictions that can be exploited by the military command.

Kenji Dohihara, Shiba Kaneda, and Rihachiro Sakanishi will each guard the three departments, coordinate operations, and unify Kenji Dohihara to dispatch and command.

After that, with the emergence of Li Shiqun and No. 76, the military commander in Shanghai will enter an extremely difficult period.

At this time, Hawara Koichi didn't know what this meant, he was just excited because he was trusted and given great power:

"As I said, Meng Shaoyuan's ability to continue to succeed has often taken advantage of the contradictions between us. With the support of His Excellency Tohihara and His Excellency the General, I will definitely work hard. Your Excellency, I wish to make the first request. ”

"Say it."

"I ask to be able to read all the information we have leaked over the past five years. If I could, I'd even like to read about all the intelligence breaches in the last 10 years. ”

"This is a very heavy job, do you need me to transfer an assistant to you?"

"No, it's just me." Hakuhara Hikaru said in a firm tone: "Even if I am tired to death at work, as long as I can make a breakthrough, I am willing!" ”
