Lost and Spy

Chapter 306
Dading Bridge.

Meng Shaoyuan stood there, halfway through a cigarette.

Stationed near Dading Bridge is the Xie Zhengkun Battalion of the 87th Division.

To complete this task, you must get his help.

After waiting there for ten minutes, a major appeared.

Xie Zhengkun.

"You are Meng Shaoyuan?"

"Yes."

"Tell me, what's the matter."

Generally, these soldiers always hold an attitude of contempt and respect for spies.

Of course, Meng Shaoyuan's military rank was lieutenant colonel, and Xie Zhengkun didn't dare to offend him openly, for fear of harming himself and his family in the future.

Just meet him and just be perfunctory.

"Thank you battalion commander, smoke."

"No. What's the matter, tell me, I still have a lot of things to do."

"boom!"

A cannon was heard in the distance.

"It's midnight, and the artillery is still firing." Meng Shaoyuan muttered: "Thank you, Battalion Commander, I want to ask you to borrow troops."

"Borrowing soldiers?" Xie Zhengkun was taken aback.

"The situation is like this. More than 200 Japanese nationals formed a volunteer team, ran out of the rental business, gathered at Wufu Company on Qingyu Road, and then prepared to join the battle under the support of the Japanese army."

Meng Shaoyuan briefly explained: "I'm going to deal with these 200 people, but I don't have enough strength in my hands. Your battalion happens to be stationed nearby, so I have no choice but to ask Battalion Commander Xie for help."

Xie Zhengkun frowned: "Mr. Meng, originally it was my job as soldiers to eradicate the Japanese invaders, but my battalion, as a reserve team, must wait for orders to be mobilized at any time. Right now, the battle is raging on the front line. According to the order from above, everyone from the battalion commander to the cook must arrive at the designated place within the designated time. To transfer troops without permission is a crime of beheading, and Xie cannot afford it."

"I understand, Commander Xie." Meng Shaoyuan said patiently: "I will coordinate with your superiors. If you really need to mobilize you, I, Meng Shaoyuan, have nothing to say. Even if the action is imminent and you evacuate, I will never There will be complaints."

Xie Zhengkun still shook his head: "Mr. Meng, there are only more than 200 ordinary people. There is no need to use our regular army. You should find a way by yourself, sorry."

Meng Shaoyuan is not a person who likes to talk about the truth with others, and even feels very disgusted with preaching, but seeing Xie Zhengkun's resolute attitude, it seems impossible not to talk about the truth:

"Commander Xie, ordinary people? Do you really think those Japanese are ordinary people? Hujiang University, is it your 87th Division who launched the attack? I was on a mission in the Japanese position at that time, and I saw the battle with my own eyes.

A total of fifty Japanese expatriates are the so-called ordinary people in your mouth.They are trained by retired military officers, and their combat ferocity is not inferior to that of professional soldiers.

You can ask the comrades of the 87th Division who were in charge of attacking Hujiang University, where, because of the resistance of these 'common people', how many of your brothers died?They are not ordinary people, they are a group of real soldiers! "

Xie Zhengkun's face was a little ugly.

The attack on Hujiang University was attacked by the 87st Regiment of the 261st Brigade of the 521th Division.

After being the first to obtain information and successfully killing a hidden heavy armored squad of the Japanese army, the 521 regiment still encountered tenacious resistance and suffered heavy casualties.

What the spy said, if you think about it carefully, it seems that it is not unreasonable.

Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "I know, you soldiers look down on us as spies, but Hujiang University, do you know how the heavy armored squad of the Japanese army was killed? One of our latent spies named Liu Meihua, she risked Risking to pass on this information, but she sacrificed herself, she is only in her early 20s."

Xie Zhengkun was taken aback.

"You are sacrificing, and we are also sacrificing."

Meng Shaoyuan sighed softly: "In the face of a national crisis, whether it's soldiers or spies, in short, we have only one enemy, the Japanese.

Battalion Commander Xie, think about it, once these more than 200 Japanese troops are put into the battlefield, how many of our brothers will they kill?What if one day Shanghai is lost?

These ordinary people in your eyes will follow the Japanese army to Nanjing, Zhenjiang, and your hometown Suzhou to massacre our ordinary people, and this situation will be caused only because we have not been able to kill them here! "

Xie Zhengkun was silent.

Meng Shaoyuan did not urge him, but lit another cigarette.

"How about their weaponry?" Finally, Xie Zhengkun asked.

"He has a small amount of weapons and no heavy firepower." Meng Shaoyuan said quickly.

"Let's do this." Xie Zhengkun made a decision: "At most, I will give you a platoon and a light machine gun squad. I think it should be enough to cooperate with your people."

"Thank you."

Meng Shaoyuan let go of his heart: "Thank you battalion commander, we will act tomorrow night, please, please."

"Don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised you." Xie Zhengkun said this, and suddenly asked: "That Liu Meihua is a nurse in the infirmary of Hujiang University, right?"

This time it was Meng Shaoyuan's turn to be surprised: "How do you know?"

Xie Zhengkun sighed deeply: "How did I know? Why didn't I know? She is my cousin."

Meng Shaoyuan suddenly realized.

What a coincidence.

It seems that Xie Zhengkun was able to agree, and Liu Meihua's reasons accounted for a large part of the reasons.

"Our family thought she was really working as a nurse, and they were still worried about her safety." Xie Zhengkun's tone was a bit bitter:

"I just found out now that she was also a spy. Hey, it's gone, it's just gone. Commander Meng, help me kill a few more Japanese tomorrow night and avenge my sister."

……

On August 1937, 8, the huge fleet headed by the Japanese battleship Nagato and Mutsu transported about 21 people from the vanguard of the Japanese Shanghai Expeditionary Army to the Saddle Islands.

On the evening of the 22nd, after the Japanese army was replaced by light cruisers and destroyers in the Ma'an Islands, they sailed towards Chuansha Town and Wusongkou respectively.

On the 16th, the Japanese army retreated to the Jiangwan stronghold centered on the Japanese Marine Corps Headquarters, and both China and Japan continued to invest troops in Shanghai.

From August 8, the 23rd and 3th Divisions of the Japanese Army, under the cover of intensive naval gunfire, landed at Wusongkou Railway Pier, Shizilin, and Chuanshakou, and attacked the Chinese positions at Baoshan, Yuepu, Luodian, and Canzaobang. .

Shanghai has been plunged into a sea of ​​flames.

The armed rangers of the military command were put into the battlefield in large quantities. Here, the grievances between soldiers and secret agents were temporarily put aside. For them, there is only one enemy:
Japanese army!

The heroic soldiers of China are suffering huge casualties every day, and the same is true for these military command agents.

On August 8, the Second Squadron of the Second Squadron of the Fourth Battalion of the Military Command Armed Rangers was discovered by the Japanese army after completing the investigation mission of the Japanese army in Shizilin.

Team leader Qian Yizhong immediately ordered an agent to take the Japanese deployment back.

And myself, with the rest of the agents, sniped on the spot, delaying time for them.

Compared with professional soldiers, especially the well-equipped and well-trained Japanese army, these agents are no match at all.

The second team consisted of eight members, one returned to report the information, and the other seven dragged the Japanese army desperately in an extremely passive situation, trying to win even one more second for their brother.

Soon, three agents were killed.

Vice-captain Tang Dayou was timid and proposed to surrender, but Qian Yizhong enforced the family law on the spot and shot him to death.

"Those who are unfaithful and unfilial, kill! Those who rape and plunder, kill! Those who are cowardly and warlike, kill! Those who resist orders, kill! Those who leak secrets, kill! Those who fornicate foreigners, kill!

The remaining three continued to fight.

When the Japanese army rushed up, the last remaining agent on the temporary position shot himself.

At this time, Qian Yizhong had already died in advance.

In this service, all the members of the Second Squadron of the Second Squadron of the Fourth Battalion of the Military Command Armed Rangers, except one survived because of passing information, and the rest were all killed.

This small battle was insignificant and not worth mentioning in the countless bloody battles of the Songhu Battle.

However, relying on the intelligence they exchanged for seven lives, the 98th Division of the National Army repelled the Japanese army that captured Shizilin on August 8 and wiped out more than a thousand enemies.

"Exchanging the lives of seven people for the lives of more than a thousand Japanese pirates is worth it."

Later, after Meng Shaoyuan learned of what happened to the second team, he said such a sentence.

But even he didn't know that there were only six martyrs and one was supposed to be a traitor.

He is Tang Dayou.

But he was executed in advance of the family law.

As a matter of course, Tang Dayou also became a martyr.

The truth of many things has been submerged forever after the death of the person involved.

Even the agent of the second team who survived passing the information was killed in a Japanese air strike on August 8.

So far, the Second Squad was wiped out.

During the Songhu Anti-Japanese War, countless soldiers and agents died generously, but this is not the end, but just the beginning.

In the future, many more people will become martyrs.

As long as the war does not stop, such sacrifices will not end for a day...

……

Qingyu Road, Wufu Company.

Night, 10 o'clock.

"Report, the investigation has been completed." Yue Zhenchuan, who had just been transferred, hurried over: "Since the morning, people have entered Wufu Company one after another. By half an hour ago, it was roughly estimated that there were more than 200 people in Wufu Company."

"This is Chen Yushan's company."

Meng Shaoyuan said indifferently: "Chen Yushan was also a businessman who wanted to save the country by industry. He fought with American businessmen and British businessmen. He suffered heavy losses and became discouraged. He sold his factory, opened Wufu Company, and started Cooperated with the Japanese in an all-round way, and married a Japanese wife."

"He was originally a patriotic businessman." Yue Zhenchuan interjected, "Unfortunately, he has changed over the years and finally became a traitor. The Japanese all gathered in his company, and here is where they escaped." base camp."

"Many former patriots gradually changed later on." Meng Shaoyuan sighed softly, looked at the time and said:
"Attack on time at 10:30, kill without mercy!"
