Chapter 1075 Fishing with Nets I
"Although the Japanese army began to retreat, it is still stationed on the Lishui line, and it has not returned to its original position immediately, I plan to go around Jinling tomorrow and visit Matsui Taikuro, chief of the general staff of the dispatch army, and I may get more useful information from his mouth."
"Yoshitaro Kawamoto mentioned that the Japanese army will launch a large-scale campaign, which is currently in the planning stage, and this matter is not trivial, compared to the battle of Wuling, this information is of more important significance to the Yamashiro government."
"From this battle of Wuling, we can also see the weakness of the army of the Shancheng government, and several divisions have been exhausted, and they have not been able to stop the Japanese army's combat intentions, in other words, it is not that the officers and soldiers do not resist Japan, but that there are too many problems in the command system." Chen Mingxiang said hatefully.
"Mingxiang, we are just an intelligence agency, and we have fulfilled our duties by providing military intelligence to the Military Commission in a timely manner, as for other things, we can't manage and can't manage it, Boss Dai has to go around when he encounters this group of theater commanders who hold military power!" Wang Zhen persuaded him.
She feels very happy and satisfied with her current life, although she is fighting behind enemy lines, but she accompanies her husband Chen Mingxiang, and can live a normal family life every day, and she dare not have more extravagant hopes.
The smuggling transaction between the Huatong Trading Company and the Military Command Bureau has earned a lot of wealth for the family, and even if they settle in the United States after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, they will not be able to spend it for more than ten lifetimes.
Moreover, with Chen Mingxiang's help to the American expatriates in the concentration camps, he will definitely be able to be taken care of by the US government after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, and there will be no problem with the way back.
Although she is an agent, she is also an ordinary woman, and she has no ambitions, and it is her greatest wish to live a happy and happy life, so Chen Mingxiang's accusations against the high-level military of the Shancheng government will be stopped in time, and it will be addictive to talk too much.
Chen Mingxiang was dissatisfied with the bureaucrats and military leaders of the Shancheng government, and she had not heard it once or twice, but because of her position, even if Chen Mingxiang joined the underground party, it was not unacceptable.
"It's easy to take the transport plane of the army aviation, but when will the 11th Army retreat and the road transportation around Wuling will return to normal, I don't know the specific situation, I heard General Kinoshita say yesterday that something is wrong with this matter, and the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army and the Headquarters of the 11th Army are in conflict." Gangmura Shizo shook his head and said.
Chen Mingxiang came to the gendarmerie headquarters to look for Kinoshita Eichi, but he was not there, so he could only ask Gangcun Shaozo to coordinate the aviation at the airport, and by the way, he asked about the movements of the 11th Army.
"General Shunroku Hata and Lieutenant General Isamu Yokoyama have a conflict? This is strange, the 11th Army fought bravely to kill the enemy and completed the intended goal, could it be that the sixth general of Shun Hata was still dissatisfied? Chen Mingxiang asked.
He felt very strange, according to normal logic, the losses of the Japanese army itself in the Battle of Wuling were also very large, and it was inevitable to rest for a period of time, otherwise it would not be possible to restore combat effectiveness, could it be that the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army wanted to use this battle to continue to march to the mountain city?
This seems unlikely, with the strength of the Eleventh Army alone, in the face of millions of elites in the southwest, it is a dream to fight to the mountain city, and the battle of Wuling was fought a little reluctantly.
"It is not a question of the battle, but the question of whether the units of the Eleventh Army should withdraw to their original positions after the battle, the base camp seems to have a new idea, but the headquarters of the Eleventh Army does not agree, and it is said that the chief of operations of the base camp, Major General Sanada Koichiro, and the operational staff officer Kondo Fu Hachichusa, will arrive in Jinling in the next few days."
"The general said that the headquarters of the Tokyo Military Police Command secretly sent a telegram to inform him that the Mei organ had transferred a group of telecommunications experts from the mainland, and he judged that it might be related to the new battle plan, and that the intelligence group of the Mei organ has been busy gathering intelligence from various places in the past few days, and I heard that at the end of the year, the head of the Shibayama organ will hold a secret meeting to coordinate the work of the entire Kannai intelligence agency, and you will also have a part in it." Komura Shizo said.
"Me? What is the matter with me in the Military Intelligence Conference? I'm only in charge of the procurement of military materials, and I never participate in the war. Chen Mingxiang said.
"It may be necessary to requisition the transport fleet of the Huatong Trading Company and the fleet of the shipping company to serve the new battle plan, to assist in the delivery of war materials to designated areas, especially ships, and possibly to transport weapons and ammunition from the Japanese mainland."
"Due to the depletion of domestic resources, it is urgent to make up for it from various countries, whether it is the army or the navy, there is a great shortage of ships, and what can be called up at the moment is your fleet." Komura Shizo said.
"Section Chief, since the empire is in urgent need of ships, why don't I donate all the ships of the shipping company to the imperial army, so that I can also contribute to the cause of the empire?" Chen Mingxiang asked.
"It's good to have this heart, your shipping company only has a few ships, and no matter how short the empire is, it won't beat your idea, and the general command of the dispatch army will not agree. Your ship has to smuggle supplies, deliver coal and salt to Shanghai, and bring grain, and no one can touch your ship. Okamura said with a smile.
Chen Mingxiang felt that this matter was a bit too outrageous, and the intelligence work meeting chaired by Kaneshiro Shibayama personally had to call himself to participate, even if he wanted to assign himself a transportation task, he only needed to say it alone, and he didn't have to tell himself the details?
Until Jinling, Chen Mingxiang didn't figure out what was going on, anyway, it was wrong, but he also knew that it was because he had too little information in his hand to make an accurate judgment, so he could only come to cover the water and take one step at a time.
"Bei Zejun, the telecommunications experts of the empire will rush to Shanghai in the evening today, you can prepare in advance, I hope that the intelligence team can achieve some results in this operation, at least it will not be nothing, and I will also have to bear some pressure to transfer experts from the local area."
"This opportunity is rare, all units of the Eleventh Army are currently stationed on the front line of Lishui, and have not withdrawn to their original positions, which is also equivalent to giving you a plan and improving credibility, but it won't take too long, you have to speed up the arrangement." Kanshiro Shibayama said in the office.
"Please rest assured, Your Excellency General, I have already found the operational staff of the Eleventh Army and drawn up a plan to attack Wuling again, plus the attacking troops have not withdrawn, as long as these contents are leaked to the other party, I will definitely be able to verify the results I want to know."
"The radio monitoring team of the Political Security Bureau has not given up the monitoring of the radio station, and these days I have found several strange signals in Shanghai, which have not been recorded before, and when the experts and equipment come, the secret monitoring will be carried out for two days, and I will start the operation on the 17th." Kitazawa said.
