Chapter 704: Special Appointment
Ningbo.
May 16, 1938.
Meng Shaoyuan had just entered Ningbo, and there was already a convoy waiting there.
A military commander agent in a tunic with a top hat and a badge pinned to his chest greeted:
"Boss Hai?"
Boss Hai, Meng Shaoyuan's code name for going to Ningbo this time.
Meng Shaoyuan nodded.
He saw that the people who came to greet him were all dressed like this.
He really has some curiosity, are these people afraid that others will not know that they are military commanders?
"Boss Hai, please come with me."
The man quickly took Meng Shaoyuan to a car and opened the door.
The convoy was quickly launched.
And the people and cars brought by Meng Shaoyuan also followed behind the convoy......
……
Almost non-stop, Meng Shaoyuan rushed to the headquarters of the Ningbo Station of the Military Command as soon as possible.
The person in charge of meeting him was not Wu Chengzhang, the stationmaster of Ningbo Station, but a strange middle-aged man.
"You are Meng Shaoyuan?"
The man asked very majestically as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Yes."
"I am Luo Liangjian, deputy director of the third division of the chairman's chamberlain!"
"Hello sir!"
If this is sent by the chairman's chamberlain, it can directly represent the supreme leader.
"Sit down."
Luo Liangjian spoke with a strong Hunan accent: "This time, I am entrusted with ......"
"Whew"!
Meng Shaoyuan immediately stood up.
"Sit down"
Meng Shaoyuan sat down again.
"I was ordered to go to Ningbo to carry out a secret military mission." Luo Liangjian's expression was serious: "Before leaving, the commission specially asked me to find Dai Li, and Dai Li recommended you to me." ”
Meng Shaoyuan didn't dare to make a sound, but listened to Luo Liangjian:
"Meng Shaoyuan, what I want to tell you next is a top-secret military mission, and not a single thing must be leaked! , otherwise, military law engaged! ”
"Understood!"
In fact, even without Luo Liangjian's words, Meng Shaoyuan knew what was going to happen.
"How much do you know about the Air Force?"
Luo Liangjian suddenly asked.
"Although our Chinese Air Force is far from the Japanese Air Force in terms of overall strength, it has also achieved brilliant results in previous air battles! It is the pride of the country and the nation! Meng Shaoyuan replied loudly.
"That's a good point." Luo Liangjian nodded slightly: "What do you think is the prospect of our air force launching an air attack on the Japanese mainland at this moment?" ”
It's coming, it's finally here!
Where did Meng Shaoyuan dare to answer the true situation: "I think that although our air force has almost suffered casualties in many battles, if we are united and have the full support of the chairman and the Nationalist Government, it is still feasible to attack the Japanese mainland." ”
"Well, that's a good point." Luo Liangjian was silent for a while: "Meng Shaoyuan, I can tell you now, the chairman has made up his mind to carry out an air raid on the Japanese mainland!" ”
Meng Shaoyuan hurriedly made a surprised expression: "Really? ”
"This is a combat order issued by the commissioner himself." Luo Liangjian's tone was even more severe: "The specific action is that our three fighters took off from Hankou Wangjiadun Airport on May 19, then landed at Ningbo Lishe Airport, refueled, and then forcibly entered the Japanese mainland, carried out bombing missions, and then returned home. ”
"Yes!" Meng Shaoyuan's voice didn't dare to be too high: "What is my task?" ”
"The task is very serious." Luo Liangjian said slowly: "I can tell you clearly that this bombing mission has been planned for a long time. In October last year, six TB-3 heavy bombers from the Soviet Union's military aid agreement with China flew to Lanzhou as planned. On 30 November, five of the planes flew from Lanzhou to Nanchang via Hankou to conduct combat training before the bombing of Japan.
Unfortunately, Japanese espionage was very rampant, and it had long been informed that there were Chinese heavy bombers in Nanchang. On December 13, Japanese planes attacked Nanchang Airport, killing two planes and injuring three on the spot, and the remaining fighters were forced to fly back to Lanzhou to avoid the air raid. This time the Japanese spies made us suffer heavy losses, and it is precisely for this reason that the TB-3 was only used as a transport aircraft in the Chinese battlefield and no longer served as any strategic bombing mission. ”
Meng Shaoyuan listened silently.
"However, then we got four Martin-139WC bombers, seven Voltier V-11 light bombers and several Northrop G2E light bombers." Luo Liangjian then said: "After investigation and selection, the Martin-139WC bomber was selected to carry out the bombing mission. And Xu Huansheng, the person in charge of the special plane, is responsible for forming an expeditionary bombing team! ”
Luo Liangjian stared at the other party and said: "The plane departed from Hankou, Hankou has a strong military and is heavily guarded, and the Japanese have no way to start. And Ningbo is the most suitable and the last refueling and supply point. However, the situation in Ningbo is very complicated, and Japanese special activities are extremely rampant, and if you are not careful, it will turn into the second Nanchang Airport tragedy. ”
Meng Shaoyuan also knew this.
Ningbo is only stationed in the 194th Division and the 16th Division, as well as some Zhejiang Salt Tax Police Units, but they have to guard against such a large defense area.
"Ningbo's military command is not very strong." Luo Liangjian sighed softly: "We originally considered the transfer of troops, but considering that there were fierce battles in all theaters, it was not easy to transfer troops. Second, considering that once the troops are frequently deployed, it will be easier to attract the enemy's attention, so think about it, is it possible to have a capable person to solve this problem?
I asked me to go to Dai Li, and Dai Li recommended you to me. He thinks highly of you, saying that you alone can be worth thousands of troops. The commission specially ordered me to rush to Ningbo and take full responsibility for this matter. Dai Li's description of you is amazing, and I don't know if you really have the ability or if you were praised by others, but now you can only try. ”
Meng Shaoyuan smiled in his heart.
This is the way to employ people.
None of these people in the chamber of the chairman's chamber are simple.
Qian Dajun, Chen Bui, Chen Guofu......
and even Yu Jishi, the head of the guard, Shi Zude, the head of the guard regiment, and Liu Yuanlin, the head of the special service regiment......
Take one out at random, which one is not a big man who can make a storm lose his color by stomping his feet?
The same is true for this Luo Liangjian.
Luo Liangjian said lightly: "Meng Shaoyuan, I will hand over the safety of Ningbo to you, ensure a smooth take-off, and don't let Rite succeed, do you have a way to do it?" ”
Meng Shaoyuan was also not polite: "Sir, let me be responsible for the security of Ningbo, for the sake of the country, Meng Shaoyuan will never dare to refuse." But Meng Shao originally had two conditions. ”
"Say."
"First, during the special period, the situation is urgent, Meng Shaoyuan can't ask for instructions and report everything, and he should have the right to act arbitrarily."
"Agreed, you just do your thing." Luo Liangjian didn't have time to think: "I'll give you another privilege, in the whole of Ningbo, you can use whoever you want, and anyone who disobeys will be punished for sabotaging the War of Resistance!" ”
After speaking, something came to mind: "I said hello to Dai Li, during this time, you do not belong to the military command for the time being, you are directly subordinate to the chairman's chamber, and you are under the direct command of Luo Liangjian, deputy director of the third department, that is, myself!" ”
"Yes!" Meng Shaoyuan was overjoyed.
In the chairman's chamber, even if you only stay for one day, it is equivalent to a thick layer of gold, which is something that many people dream of?
In the future, in the career, the promotion speed will be faster than ordinary people!
"Alright." Luo Liangjian then said, "Let's talk about your other requirements." ”
"The second requirement is to do extraordinary things in extraordinary times!" Meng Shaoyuan said: "Meng Shaoyuan may do a lot of things that are accused. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Ningbo City, maybe it will be stained red with blood!" Meng Shaoyuan said quietly: "One word, kill!" Find a day special, kill! Find a traitor, kill! No confessions, no hard evidence. Even, in the process, the wrong person will be killed. There is insufficient evidence to kill! Some just have a tendency to be traitors, kill! ”
"Why?"
"The Japanese have been operating in Ningbo for too long, there are too many spies and traitors, today is already the 16th, and there are few days before takeoff, in order to ensure the smooth bombing of the Japanese mainland, Meng Shaoyuan can only use the most tough means! There is also a purpose, Meng Shaoyuan is worthless in front of the chief, but in the eyes of the Japanese intelligence agencies, he is a big man. ”
"This way, you can draw the eyes of the Japanese people to you, so that you don't have time for anything else." Luo Liangjian quickly understood: "But this will also put you in a dangerous situation." ”
"Chief Luo, the bombing of the Japanese mainland is of great significance, not in how many Japanese people can be killed, but in the shock and panic it brings to the Japanese people." Meng Shaoyuan was not afraid at all: "This is an extremely important step for the great cause of the Anti-Japanese War. In order for the plan to be carried out smoothly, I become a target, even if I die. ”
"Good, good!"
Luo Liangjian no longer hesitated: "Meng Shaoyuan, do what you want, if something happens, I have a commission to help you bear it." The truth of history is written by people, even if you Meng Shaoyuan killed people in Ningbo, with the passage of time, no one will know in the future. What's more, you killed Japanese spies, and you killed those traitors! ”
"Then, Meng Shaoyuan is relieved, and there are no other requirements."
"One more thing." Luo Liangjian suddenly said: "Nominated by the chairman personally, Meng Shaoyuan!" ”
"Here!"
"Promote you to Major of the National Revolutionary Army!"
"Swear allegiance to the commission, swear allegiance to the country!"
Oh my God, the appointment has finally come down.
According to the length of his service, he can almost be promoted.
What's more, when he was in Xuzhou, the chairman decided to promote himself to major.
However, it was not until May that the promotion appointment was officially communicated.
It's funny to think about it, his rank of rank is already colonel.
I am afraid that I will be promoted to major general, and my official official rank in the archives of the national government will still be in the position of major.
"Meng Shaoyuan, the commission has a lot of trust in you." Luo Liangjian said earnestly: "Dai Li is also full of praise for you. But this time it's not as simple as arresting a few Japanese people and cracking a few cases, it's a matter of the overall situation of the Anti-Japanese War! ”
"Please rest assured, Chief Luo, Meng Shaoyuan will never disappoint the commission, Mr. Dai, and your expectations."
"It's good to know, let go and do your thing!"
