In late October 1938, Japanese troops landed at Daya Bay in Guangzhou.

On October 22, Guangzhou fell.

At this point, the Guangdong-Hankou Railway was cut off, and the most important material supply place in Wuhan during the war was immediately interrupted. Wuhan's strategic position thus declined, so the Nationalist government decided to abandon Wuhan.

Under effective command, the main forces retreated in an orderly manner to the south and west under cover, and there was no rout of pursuit.

On the night of 24 October, the chairman and his wife Song Meiling flew from Wuchang to Hengyang, Hunan.

The next day, Wuhan fell.

The Battle of Wuhan ended.

As in the Battle of Xuzhou, after giving the enemy effective damage, the main force maintained an intact and organized retreat.

In the two battles, the Nationalist Government learned from experience, but it did not let the tragedy of a rout-style retreat in the later stage of the Battle of Songhu appear!

This is a huge step forward.

It also represents that China is becoming more and more experienced in the war against the Japanese army.

The Battle of Wuhan was a desperate battle between China and Japan, with the largest number of troops, the longest tug-of-war, and the widest area of engagement, with a total of 130 divisions and a total of about 1.4 million people.

The combat area was related to several provinces, and the Japanese suffered nearly 100,000 casualties, which was the largest battle during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and a sign that the War of Resistance had shifted from strategic defense to strategic stalemate.

This protracted war of resistance caused Japan's military spending, which was already poor in resources, to be seriously overdrawn, and the ultra-long supply line from Tokyo to Wuhan was more than 2,500 kilometers in a straight line, which burdened Japan heavily.

And the great Chinese nation's tenacious and courageous resistance, as well as the will to resolutely not surrender, will eventually send Japan to the end of the road.

The frenzied attack of the Japanese invaders failed to make Britain, France, the United States, and other powerful countries in China change their neutral stance, and they continued to pursue a policy of appeasement in the face of great suffering and suffering China.

However, when the Chinese people are faced with national righteousness, life and death, and helplessness, they are not afraid of sacrifice and defend their dignity.

During the Battle of Wuhan, the Japanese army used chemical weapons and poison gas bombs, which are strictly prohibited by international conventions, and its military discipline was extremely corrupt and its practices were extremely inferior, and this despicable act of violating international conventions, violating moral conscience, and trampling on human civilization will inevitably be firmly remembered by history.

On October 25, 1938, on the day of the fall of Wuhan, a team commanded by Meng Shaoyuan quietly lurked in Yulinchang.

……

Shanghai, October 25, 1938.

The news of the fall of Wuhan reached the city as soon as possible.

The Japanese in Shanghai rejoiced.

Those traitors couldn't wait to wave the Japanese flag, and couldn't wait to show their loyalty to their masters.

They even wanted to sing the praises of the "glorious" victory of the Great Japanese Empire on the streets of Shanghai.

Ji Yunqing is undoubtedly the most excited one of them.

The "invincible" imperial army was victorious again.

And today, I am about to give another gift to my master......

……

"What is there to be excited about?"

There was no trace of joy on Kenji Dohihara's face: "Nearly 100,000 imperial warriors are dead and maimed, and blood stains Wuhan, we are just a miserable victory, and besides, the Chinese army has withdrawn from the battlefield with deployment, they have a purpose." Ladies and gentlemen, the war has only just begun. It's too early to celebrate. ”

Undoubtedly, Kenji Dohihara's brain is still relatively clear.

Such a so-called victory not only did not have any need to celebrate, but also made the future of the Japanese Empire worrying......

……

"Martial arts for a long time"!

A banner was pulled at the door of Zhengjin Bank.

Across the street, you can see Japanese people cheering in the bank.

Wu Jingyi has been watching coldly all the time.

Wuhan fell.

But Shanghai's good show is about to begin.

The blood of the front-line soldiers will not be shed in vain.

Now, it's the turn of the military commanders!

……

"What time is it?"

"Nine o'clock."

"It's coming, everyone is in the lurking position."

"Yes, everyone is in the lurking position!"

The order was conveyed in an orderly manner.

Meng Shaoyuan checked his weapon.

Soon, gunshots will ring out here.

And in the public concession, the action is about to begin!

……

Ji Yunqing came to Zhengjin Bank very early under the protection of bodyguards.

For his coming according to the promise, Yitian Yinli gave him some appreciation.

"Serving the Great Japanese Empire, that's what I'm supposed to do."

Ji Yunqing replied respectfully.

"Mr. Ji, your loyalty will be rewarded."

Yitian Yinli looked at the time: "There is still an hour before Mr. Fletcher comes, Mr. Ji, please go to my office for tea." ”

"Ah, I've heard for a long time that His Excellency Yitian is a master of the tea ceremony, and it's really my honor today!"

……

"It's coming!"

"Ready!"

Meng Shaoyuan raised his gun.

His marksmanship has not been too good, but it is enough.

He didn't want to be a sharpshooter.

A truck came into view.

Meng Shaoyuan pulled the trigger steadily.

"Bang"!

As soon as the gunshots rang out, there was an explosion of gunfire around them.

The tires of the car were broken in an instant.

And the driver was also shot and killed by the sharpshooter who had been arranged a long time ago.

The car staggered for some distance and came to a stop when it hit a large rock.

Of the five security guards in the car, one was knocked unconscious on the spot, and the other four jumped out of the truck in a panic.

"Bang bang bang"!

Gunfire rang out all around.

One of the security guards saw that the situation was not right, so he turned around and ran.

This guy is undoubtedly a smart guy.

But the remaining three people were not so bright, and they actually took out their guns to fight back!

……

"Big Nose and Ice Beauty have set off."

"Got it."

Wu Jingyi calmly took out a box of women's cigarettes, took out one and lit it herself, took a puff, and elegantly spit out a smoke ring:

"Command, get into action!"

"Yes!"

……

Three corpses.

Meng Shaoyuan came over under the protection of Gan Ning.

The security guard who was knocked unconscious just now jumped out of the car in a panic.

"Bang bang bang".

Several bullets knocked him to the ground in an instant.

The body is very tightly covered by a canvas canopy.

Inside, there are three large safes.

Each safe contains 1 million yen!

"Explode it!"

Meng Shaoyuan said coldly.

Three pieces of black gold were quickly placed on the three safes.

"You can ignite a fire, pay attention, a little fire quickly evacuates, the power is too great!"

The fuse was ignited, and the "zizi" burned rapidly.

Meng Shaoyuan covered his ears.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Three earth-shattering explosions rang out.

Although his ears were covered, such a violent explosion still made Meng Shaoyuan's ears buzz.

Fuck, how is it so powerful?

No wonder it was able to replace TNT as the king of explosives!

Several bills flew out.

"Go get the money!" Meng Shaoyuan shook his head, and his voice couldn't help but be raised: "Three minutes, if you can't take it away, burn it all!" ”

……

"Your Excellency, Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher have arrived."

The lobby manager, Uchida Daisho, hurriedly walked in.

"Ah, here?"

Looking at the time, it was exactly ten o'clock.

Americans are really punctual about time.

"Mr. Ji, shall we go and greet him together?"

"Ah, okay, okay."

Ji Yunqing smiled.

……

Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher showed up at the bank on time, each carrying a small bag.

"Mr. Fletcher, VIP room please."

Mrs. Fletcher, on one side, spoke a few words of English.

Eric Fletcher asked, "Mr. General Manager, my lady would like to use your restroom." ”

"Ah, of course."

Ida immediately called a female staff member and asked her to accompany Mrs. Fletcher to the bathroom.

"Please, Mr. Fletcher."

"Please, Mr. General Manager, Mr. Ji."

……

"District Chief Meng, it's all right."

"Retreat!"

Meng Shaoyuan personally directed a robbery.

Including the driver, the Japanese died and fled.

A barrel of gasoline was poured on the truck.

Gan Ning took out a lighter, lit it, and threw it out.

……

Talking about business with Americans is really a refreshing thing.

There's no nonsense at all.

"Mr. Fletcher, please sit down for a moment, and I'll personally help you open an account."

Yitian Yinli stood up happily: "Mr. Ji, please accompany Mr. Fletcher." ”

"Okay, okay." Ji Yunqing said in a loud voice.

"Mr. Ji, can you help me get that thing and show it to me?"

Fletcher said, pointing to an ornament on the other side.

"It's my pleasure to serve you."

Ji Yunqing got up with a smile, walked over and picked up the ornament: "This is a counterfeit, I can see at a glance, if Mr. Fletcher likes Chinese antiques, I will give you a few another day." ”

"That's so thankful."

……

All formalities have been completed.

The account is opened.

Mrs. Fletcher also returned.

Ida Inri warmly accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher to visit the business office of Zhengjin Bank.

Mr. Fletcher, apparently, was interested in everything, and kept asking this and that.

Mrs. Fletcher, dressed in high heels, was probably tired and found a place to rest in the lobby by herself.

Maybe the heels were too tight, and she bent down to rub her feet.

……

"Very good, Mr. Ji, you did a good job."

As soon as they sent the Fletcher couple away, Yitian Yinli immediately praised Ji Yunqing.

"Nothing, nothing ......"

Ji Yunqing was about to brag a few words when the phone on the desk rang.

Yi Tian Yinli picked it up, and after listening to a few words, his face changed greatly:

"What? I know, I'll be right away. ”

"What's the matter, Lord Yitian?" Ji Yunqing asked.

Ida's face turned pale: "One of our trucks was attacked, and there were three million yen on it. ”

"Ah, all robbed?"

Ji Yunqing felt so distressed like that, as if he was robbed of his own money.

"Yes, Mr. Ji, I won't keep you."

"Okay, okay, Your Excellency Yitian, you are busy first, you are busy first, I should also go."

Three million yen.

Looted.

It must have been done by those military commanders.

These guys really do everything.

"Boss Ji, are you leaving?"

"Go, go."

Ji Yunqing got into the car: "Be careful, those military commanders are crazy, and the Japanese dare to rob their money." Compared to the Japanese, my loss is much smaller! ”
