Although Minori Kusunoki, who has received valuable information, will contact "Li Wenyi" again, he will definitely be in a hurry to ask the Japanese side for merit and reward in the near future.

Meng Shaoyuan gave half of the money defrauded to Dai Li as agreed. And this also solved Dai Li's urgent need.

After all, an agent like Meng Shaoyuan, who not only did not need funds from his superiors, but could create a lot of wealth himself, was definitely the most scarce existence under his hands.

Money is needed everywhere.

At the beginning of the Battle of Songhu, Dai Li put his main energy, personnel, and materials in Shanghai, but the organizations in other places had to continue to operate.

There are also occupied areas, and the thirst for funds is not a small amount.

Relying on government funding alone is too passive, after all, the government has also used a lot of materials in Shanghai, and the cost of fighting a war, especially such a war, is undoubtedly astronomical.

This is true in both China and Japan.

In the Battle of Baoshan, the Japanese side consumed a staggering 100,000 US dollars in bullets alone.

Under such circumstances, Meng Shaoyuan's importance to Dai Li is highlighted.

"Hang Lung" has always been running at high speed, and even the war will never stop the machine from turning. On the contrary, the more intense the war, the more frequent the company's activities.

Lu Yixuan in Chongqing, Ren Yinghao in Nanjing, and Xu Chengbo in Shanghai, the three of them formed a line.

The rudiments of a future smuggling empire are already looming.

Just two days ago, Meng Shaoyuan's investment in Angus International also held a board meeting to discuss how Angus International should develop further in the future when the Sino-Japanese war does not seem to end in the short term.

War is a huge boon for smugglers, especially big international smugglers.

This means that a steady stream of wealth will fall into their pockets.

With the full support of Meng Shaoyuan, the smuggling route of Angus Foreign Company is not limited to Shanghai, and their chairman and general manager, Joy Fremont, expressed his gratitude to Meng Shaoyuan, the youngest director of the chairman of the foreign company.

And they said that because of Meng Shaoyuan's outstanding contribution to the foreign bank and his special status, the remaining directors of Angus & Co. voted unanimously to make a donation of $50,000 to the Chinese government.

At the same time, Fremont and several other directors will privately donate a batch of medicines.

In order not to anger Japan, the drugs were donated anonymously, and the supervisor will be Meng Shaoyuan.

Meng Shaoyuan expressed his gratitude to them on behalf of himself and the government.

Friends in the mall are tied together by interests.

While bringing them benefits, it will also bring great benefits to themselves.

And, of course, their "friendship" with this country.

Fremont even suggested that when Meng Shaoyuan left the concession, he could fly the American flag on his car, which would minimize the danger he might encounter.

He didn't want his partner to be in danger.

It's a pity that this was politely rejected by Meng Shaoyuan.

On September 11, the Chinese 15th Army's right flank position was broken through, and the troops were seriously reduced, so they gradually retreated to the pre-built positions of Shixianggongmiao and the line of the Liuhe River south of Luodian.

The 9th Army also moved to the pre-built positions on the line of the North Station, Jiangwan, Miaohang, and the right bank of Fuzaohama to form a confrontation with the Japanese army.

During this period of confrontation, a large number of Chinese citizens and students began to spontaneously organize condolence groups to express condolences to the soldiers who fought bravely on the front line.

Although this is something that Meng Shaoyuan does not approve of.

Their hearts are undoubtedly patriotic, and their blood is undoubtedly boiling, but this is too dangerous, and it will also bring great threats to their lives.

It's just that once the enthusiasm of the people is aroused, no one can stop it.

Some charitable groups in the concession, especially the charity teams of church organizations, have also left the public concession to do what they can.

For example, using their knowledge to help wounded soldiers, etc.

One of the most famous is the charity group organized by the International Chapel, the largest church in Shanghai, which includes both Chinese and foreigners.

And taking advantage of this time, Meng Shaoyuan also issued an order to let those teams who had been fighting bloodily on the front line be withdrawn in batches for replenishment and repair.

The casualties are high, and the exact number is still being counted.

What made Meng Shaoyuan a little pleased was that the sworn brothers, except for one Xiang Shounong, Tian Qi, Yuan Zhonghe, Zhu Yanni, Yue Zhenchuan, and Wei Yunzhe were all alive.

Guo Rui and Zhao Changle are also fine.

Tian Qi seems to be fat, and he is also white.

Compared to the other people's black and thin, this can be regarded as an outlier.

can be the same as him, in Meng Shaoyuan's memory, there is probably only Ji Shuang, who has been active in the concession, right?

"Old Seven, you didn't fight the Japanese, you ran to enjoy happiness?"

Yuan Zhonghe asked suspiciously.

"He doesn't fight with the Japanese, he specializes in fighting traitors." Zhu Yanni replied for Tian Qi on the side: "Not only did he destroy all the people, but he also swept away the food he used, he ate well every day, lived well, can he not be fat?" ”

Yuan Zhonghe sighed again and again, this person's life is different: "Old Seven, you are fat and strong, but what are you doing with the whole family?" I am not afraid of breaking yin virtue. ”

"What am I afraid of?" Tian Qi sneered: "If you want to kill, you have to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, or you don't do it, or if you want to do it, you have to destroy the door." Since they are quite traitors, this is their price. ”

Several people glanced at each other.

This Tian Laoqi, I am afraid that there are no things in this world that he is afraid of.

"Hey, guys, come here." Meng Shaoyuan called them over at this time.

A spiritual seat was improvised.

That's Xiang Shounong's.

Meng Shaoyuan stood there side by side with several brothers, and he muttered:

"Lao Xiang, go all the way, those Japanese, we will help you kill; Your revenge, we will help you aveng; Your family, we will help you raise it. Brother, we'll see you in the next life! ”

After speaking, several people bowed deeply to Xiang Shounong's spiritual position.

Yue Zhenchuan was still entangled with the Japanese on the front line, but he couldn't tear it off for the time being, and the remaining brothers and sisters of Xiang Shounong all arrived.

"Director Meng, how do you do it here?" After the worship, Yuan Zhonghe was a little puzzled: "Why don't you go to the public concession?" ”

"I can't go." Meng Shaoyuan also looked a little helpless: "The Ministry of Industry Bureau made a special appointment with the representatives of the National Government, and repeatedly stated that any soldier with weapons is not allowed to enter the public concession. ”

"What the fuck is this?" Wei Yunzhe couldn't help but scold: "We are fighting on our own land, but we can't enter our own place." ”

Not far away, the sky is again engaged in fierce air battles.

Those condolence teams appeared one after another, but no one stayed in front of this team.

The agents wore all kinds of clothes, and in the eyes of the condolence group, only those who wore military uniforms were soldiers and real heroes!

These people?

Who is it?

Although the agents were exhausted and many were wounded, few knew what they had done on the battlefield.

"Captain Wei, Captain Wei, Lu Qinghong is back."

"What? He's not dead? When Wei Yunzhe heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Quick, quick, call this kid over, fuck, where has this kid run these days?" ”

He originally wanted to scold Lu Qinghong fiercely as soon as he saw him.

But when he really saw it, he couldn't scold a word.

Lu Qinghong in front of him, his face was haggard, his clothes were torn, his body was full of filth and bloodstains, a shoe was gone, and his instep was full of wounds.

The only thing that hasn't changed is the gun in his hand!

"Report to the captain." Lu Qinghong tried to straighten his chest and tried to say in the loudest voice he could say: "Lu Qinghong, the leader of the third squad of the Special Operations Team, has completed the task and returned to the team!" ”

"Where have you been these days?" Finally, Wei Yunzhe asked: "I was separated from you in Baoshan, and I thought you were martyred." ”

"Captain of the report, Tan Xinyi and I have been working in Baoshan and the Japanese!"

"Well, this looks like my soldier! What about Tan Xinyi? ”

"Report captain, Tan Xinyi is martyred!"

Wei Yunzhe's expression darkened suddenly.

Although, he only saw Lu Qinghong come back alone, and he had already guessed it in his heart.

But he still hopes that his guess is wrong, or that a miracle will happen.

"Lord Belle has been martyred!" Just now, Lu Qinghong, who had been barely controlling himself, finally collapsed, his waist was still straight, but tears came out of his eyes:

"He was injured, he asked me to go, he said, our team has to leave the seeds, we have to let the big guys know, what we have done, we are in Baoshan, and we have lived up to the reputation of Chinese soldiers!"

"Okay, okay."

Wei Yunzhe's voice was also choked, and it took him a long time before he could say a word: "Lu Qinghong, return to the team!" ”

"Third Squad, Return to the Team!" Lu Qinghong said loudly.

How many people are left in the third squad? Is he the only one left?

Even if he is really the only one left, the third squad will definitely be able to rebuild!

Meng Shaoyuan turned his head and didn't look at it again.

He couldn't bear to look any further.

He was afraid that his tears would also flow out.

He feared that he would also lose control of his emotions.

Countless people have sacrificed, and in the future, there will be many more sacrifices.

Blood will not stop flowing in the land of Shanghai.

There, a makeshift rescue center has been set up, all staffed by volunteers.

There were three foreigners, two women and one man.

The women are all fifty years old, and their movements are skillful and calm.

A woman and a man were in charge of treating the wounded in the ambulance center. Another woman was in command outside, placing the wounded in different tents.

The woman wore a somewhat peculiar badge on her chest.

In the middle is a white cross, and on either side, there are eight strange sharp corners.

What is this?

Yes, that's the mark!

Is it them?

They are actually in Shanghai too?

Meng Shaoyuan's spirit perked up.

That's right, it must be them.

This mark is unique in the world!
