Chapter 209 The Difficult Task
After leaving the headquarters, Li Yunsheng immediately caught up with Hao Jinyuan and said seriously: "Instructor, I have something to tell you."

Hao Jinyuan nodded, took Li Yunsheng to a corner, and asked the guards to stand aside, then said softly, "What's the matter."

Li Yunsheng saw that there was no one around, so he said simply: "Instructor, do you think those foreigners are reliable? Wouldn't it be irresponsible to the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Shanghai to pin your hopes on them?"

Hao Jinyuan gave Li Yunsheng a meaningful look, then sighed and said: "Commander Chen doesn't know this, but this is the leader's intention, he must obey, and after fighting for so long, it doesn't matter if we stick to it for a few days."

Li Yunsheng said cautiously: "Instructor, it is a big taboo for military strategists to change orders like this. Now the threat of the Japanese is imminent. Once the situation changes, I am afraid it will be a big retreat."

Hao Jinyuan said calmly: "It's not enough. At least behind Shanghai, the government spent a lot of money to build a defense line. After we retreat, we can continue to resist the Japanese there."

Hearing Hao Jinyuan's words, Li Yunsheng finally understood why the national government collapsed thousands of miles after the Battle of Shanghai. It was because the soldiers on the front line thought that there was still a way out of the defense line, so he said anxiously: "Instructor, the people in the government How corrupt some officials are, don’t you know that the line of defense is supposed to be an empty shell, it’s useless, and it can’t stop the Japanese at all.”

Hao Jinyuan said seriously: "You said that the defense line is an empty shell, so you sent someone to investigate."

Li Yunsheng immediately explained: "Instructor, you know the virtues of the people in the government better than I do. You should be able to imagine how much water this solid defense line will have. So I advise you to make plans early."

The reason why Li Yunsheng and Hao Jinyuan spoke frankly was also because the two were teachers and students, and they were relatively close people at this time, so that was the case.

Hao Jinyuan thought for a while, and immediately asked, "What about your opinion?"

Li Yunsheng said bluntly: "The commander can't say anything, and we can't change the overall situation, so the instructor should think about how to protect his troops," he turned and left.

The reason why Li Yunsheng persuaded Hao Jinyuan in this way was because he felt that he was a little bit alone in Chen Xiucheng's group, so he needed an ally, and Hao Jinyuan was very suitable, after all, the relationship between the two was extraordinary.

After returning to the station, Zhang Hao immediately asked, "Section Chief, what's going on."

Li Yunsheng explained the matter again, and finally said with a sigh: "It seems that there will be a big defeat this time."

Zhang Hao said consolingly: "Section Chief, don't think too much, the situation may not be like this, and even if such a thing did happen, there are those big people above who are anxious, and we little people, there is nothing we can do about it."

Li Yunsheng nodded helplessly, he could only accept the result.

Two days later, Li Yunsheng suddenly received a telegram from the headquarters of the Secret Service, saying that the chief had arrived in downtown SH and asked Li Yunsheng to go to a meeting.

Li Yunsheng was very surprised to see Virgo coming here at this time. Now that Shanghai's defeat has been decided, why did he come here, so he immediately drove to the downtown area of ​​SH according to the address on the telegram.

After arriving at the place, Li Yunsheng came to an office under the guidance of the guards.

When he entered the office, he found that the boss was sitting on the main seat, and there were more than a dozen people on both sides, all of whom were military chief officers of the Loyalty and National Salvation Army.

After Li Yunsheng arrived, Virgo said casually, "Let's do it first, and wait for the staff to arrive."

Li Yunsheng sat down at a random place according to the order of the chief, and waited patiently.

After a while, a few more people came one after another. Seeing that almost everyone had come, Chu Zuo said: "The situation in Shanghai is very bad now. Everyone must know that we have no more people. There is no chance of winning, and this morning, the League of Nations failed to mediate, so the Military Commission will issue a retreat order soon."

Hearing this news, not only Li Yunsheng was very calm, but the rest of the people were not surprised either. It is estimated that except for Principal Chang, few people in China would think that the League of Nations could mediate successfully.

Seeing that these subordinates were very calm, Virgo spoke again: "Although we have given up on Shanghai, when we retreat, our Secret Service still has to keep some elite troops and add them to the Shanghai station so that they can fight behind enemy lines in the future. .”

As soon as Virgo finished speaking, the people in the office just looked at me and I looked at you, with very ugly expressions, and finally Jiang Yunfeng said: "Virgin, how many people will be transferred to the Shanghai station, and what are they? people."

Virgo said solemnly: "Shanghai will be the territory of the Japanese in the future, so we need to keep some elite senior intelligence agents," and took out a list for everyone to watch.

After reading the list, Li Yunsheng heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, after all, there were not a few of his confidantes among the people who were transferred.

After reading the list, the others had different expressions, but they didn't say much. After all, the military orders are like mountains, and everyone must obey them.

After issuing the list, Chu Zuo said again: "It is estimated that the Military Commission will issue an order to retreat tomorrow, and then all ministries will retreat to Nanjing in order," and then announced the adjournment of the meeting, but left Li Yunsheng alone.

After everyone had left, Chu Zuo said: "This time you are doing well, you have made a lot of contributions, and it also made me show my face in the Military Commission."

Li Yunsheng immediately said: "It's all about the leaders who are good, and the subordinates can make some contributions."

Chu Zuo sighed and said: "Okay, you don't want to flatter. The few detachments of the National Salvation Army, except you, have not done anything decent. This time the gain outweighs the loss."

Li Yunsheng smiled awkwardly and did not speak. He also knew in his heart what Virgo meant when he said that the gains outweigh the losses. After all, the anti-Japanese and national salvation army formed by selling pots and pieces of iron was all disabled, and many of Virgo's confidantes also died on the battlefield. , so I sighed so much.

Seeing that Li Yunsheng was not talking, Virgo asked, "You must be wondering why I left you alone."

Li Yunsheng was really surprised at this point. After all, he will be withdrawing from Shanghai tomorrow, so what else can he do, so he asked in puzzlement, "I really don't know, so please tell me clearly."

Virgo said softly: "When the Japanese attacked Shanghai, they attacked our central bank in Shanghai, and when they conquered Hangzhou, they also robbed our bank, which caused us huge losses. This is why I left you here." The next reason."

Li Yunsheng immediately said: "Virgin is planning to retaliate with an eye and let his subordinates also rob the Japanese bank."

Virgo solemnly said: "Not only that, this time the Japanese robbed us of a large amount of gold and legal currency. Just the legal currency, the loss is more than one billion yuan, and I received news that the Japanese will rob us in Hangzhou. All the gold and fiat currency that came here were shipped to Shanghai Zhengjin Bank, so your task is to stay in Shanghai and grab these things back.”

Li Yunsheng was taken aback when he heard Virgo's words, if ordinary robbery would be okay, but now it is too difficult to rob more than one billion French coins and a large amount of gold, so he said in embarrassment: "Virgin, ten Putting hundreds of millions of French currency together, it is estimated that several rooms will be filled, how can the subordinates get it back, this task is too difficult."

Virgo said calmly: "If it's not too difficult, I'll just let the people in Shanghai Station do it. Why did I leave it to you?"

Li Yunsheng frowned and thought for a while, and then said carefully: "Virgin, it is too difficult to get back the legal currency, and my subordinates have an idea, which is to blow up the Japanese Zhengjin Bank and destroy all the legal currency. At that time, let the central bank print it again."

Chu Zuo sighed and said, "In order to prevent counterfeiting, the paper used for our legal currency is imported from the United States, and it cannot be produced domestically. Therefore, if these legal currency are destroyed, they will not be able to be printed in a short time. That would be a lot of trouble."

Li Yunsheng frowned even more after hearing what the boss said. After all, it was too difficult to get back so many fiat coins, so he could only say: "Virgin, my subordinates will do their best, but there is no guarantee that they will be able to complete it." This task, after all, is too difficult.”

Virgo thought for a while, and said coldly: "There is really no other way, you can also blow up the Zhengjin Bank, which is better than just taking advantage of the Japanese."

Hearing what Virgo said, Li Yunsheng felt a little more relaxed. After all, if it was just to blow up the bank, the task is not too difficult, and the probability of completion is very high, but he still solemnly promises: "Don't worry Virgo, the subordinates will definitely do their best!" If there is a chance, I will grab these fiat coins back, there is really no way, and I will destroy them."

Virgo nodded, and then said: "After the order to retreat is issued, you don't need to care about it, just take your troops to hide, if necessary, you can contact Shanghai Station, and I will let the people in Shanghai Station cooperate with you .”

Li Yunsheng immediately said: "Your subordinate obeys orders," and after asking some more questions, he took his leave and left.

After returning to the station, Zhang Hao asked, "Section Chief, what's the matter with you coming to Shanghai?"

Li Yunsheng immediately told the story of the meeting, and explained the tasks assigned by the chief, and then said with emotion: "It seems that we will stay in Shanghai for a while, and continue to fight the Japanese."

Zhang Hao asked calmly: "Shanghai is about to fall, and it will be more difficult for us to act. What does the section chief plan to do?"

Li Yunsheng said confidently: "There is nothing to do now, but after the Japanese army occupies Shanghai, their forces will be dispersed, and we must have a chance to strike."

Zhang Hao nodded, and then the two discussed for a while, and then began to arrange people to lurk.
