Agents of the Republic of China

It was only after Lin Xiaotang and others arrived at the Chongqing Air Force Airport that they realized how bad the current situation was.After meeting Qiang Yihu and others who were already waiting at the airport, Lin Xiaotang learned that the Japanese had intensified the air strikes. Since last night, the Japanese bombers began to bomb the urban area of ​​Chongqing without interruption, including A large number of military targets, not just limited to those blocks mentioned in the previous intelligence.

Lin Xiaotang frowned all of a sudden.The information that Shang Huaishi desperately sent out the Japanese bombing of the Huangshan official residence had already been sent to Chongqing. It is not yet known how the military command will respond. To be on the safe side, Lin Xiaotang had already instructed the Chongqing station to contact the ** office in Chongqing. Use their channels to send the information to the base camp and Huangshan official residence again.But at this time, Chongqing was already in chaos, with various systems and departments bumping into each other like a flock of frowning flies, and even the air force airport was in chaos at this time.

"One more thing. According to our information, some armed men of unknown origin have appeared in Chongqing. Some key departments have been attacked by them, which has caused the interruption of communication between many departments and areas in Chongqing. They have also frequently attacked the Nationalist government. Important officials caused some casualties, which is also the main reason for the current panic in the city." Qiang Yihu explained.

"Yugong has already issued an order. In addition to reminding the military command and the garrison headquarters of the intrusion of enemy spies, some people have also been dispatched to search for the whereabouts of these people, but it seems that the effect is not great!"

When Lin Xiaotang heard the news, his eyes suddenly lit up.No need to ask, this is Pei Zhongyan and the troops of the Kwantung Army who have already started to act.But how they were deployed and how they got the air support from the Japanese dispatched troops, Lin Xiaotang still couldn't figure it out. Could it be that they used the Japanese spy organization of the air defense force that they had uncovered before?

But this is not the time to analyze these reasons, the key is how to deal with the current crisis.In any case, Lao Jiang is still the supreme leader of the national government and the supreme commander of the national war of resistance. The purpose of the Japanese air raid on the Huangshan mansion is very clear, which is to wipe out the highest command organization and leaders of the war of resistance in one fell swoop. Given the fact that there are many factions within the national government, the Kuomintang-controlled area will fall into unimaginable chaos in an instant.

"How many more people can we mobilize now?" Lin Xiaotang asked Qiang Yihu.

"About 100 people!" Qiang Yihu replied.

"Okay, let's go down immediately and send someone to contact the Chongqing Garrison Headquarters, Mr. Xiao Jiang, Xiao Shanling, and the guards near the Huangshan official residence. The most urgent task is to ensure the safety of the official residence."

After Lin Xiaotang finished speaking, he looked at Qiang Yihu, "Is the apartment safe there?"

Qiang Yihu nodded, "It's absolutely safe. Now he and Mr. Dong are both in the air-raid shelter in Jinbi Mountain. I have arranged for people to take care of him. Mr. Dong was injured in the bombing before, and the Chongqing Station has also arranged for reliable care!"

Lin Xiaotang was taken aback, "Injured? Is it serious? Are Jiayi and Shangzhi all right?"

It turned out that Dong Jiacheng's leg was hit by shrapnel during a gap in the Japanese army before. Fortunately, he missed the vital point, and after timely rescue, there was no serious problem.But at this time, news came from Nanyang that the Japanese army attacked Burma in a violent storm. The British and American troops stationed in Burma were retreating steadily, and the capital Yangon was about to fall.However, part of the Dong family’s property in Myanmar could not be fully evacuated. Therefore, Dong Zhennan asked Dong Jiacheng to rush to Yangon immediately to transfer some important assets of the Dong family.

But at this time, Dong Jiacheng had no way to go to Myanmar because of his injury, so Dong Jiayi could only be replaced.Fortunately, at this time, everyone had already learned that the Japanese counteroffensive victory was imminent and that Lin Xiaotang had escaped safely, so Dong Jiayi decided to rush to Burma immediately.

At this time, because of the ever-changing situation in Chongqing, Chongqing and Yugong could not spare many people to follow Dong Jiayi to Myanmar.Therefore, Dong Jiayi decided to set off with only Chai Ba and a few bodyguards.

When Lin Xiaotang rushed back to Chongqing, Dong Jiayi had already set off for three days. Calculating the time, if everything went well, she should have reconciled with the Dong family supporters in Guangxi.

"How is Shangzhi's situation?" Lin Xiaotang was still a little worried. Shang Huaishi and Shang Zhi had a deep love for grandparents. The news of Shang Huaishi's death for the country had spread to Chongqing. Shangzhi must have known the bad news at this time. The most worrying thing is that the girl Shangzhi seems to be strong, but after all, she is not yet 20 years old. All relatives in the family were killed when Nanjing fell. For so many years, she has been dependent on her grandfather Shang Huaishi. Relatives also left her, the blow to her can be imagined.

Qiang Yihu's head drooped suddenly, "Boss, Shangzhi has passed out from crying several times in the past few days, and she has lost a lot of weight. When the proprietress is here, you can persuade her. Since the proprietress left, how can she be Miss Jia followed her every step of the way, for fear that she would be overwhelmed, you don't know, ever since she heard the news of Shang Lao's death, she didn't eat or drink, like, like she lost her soul!"

Lin Xiaotang sighed, the current situation is the same as he imagined, but at this time there is no time to explain Shangzhi carefully.

Lin Xiaotang turned around and looked at the people behind him. Datou, Huoyan, Chang Huan, Guo Zhui and others were all dressed in dust. They were more or less injured in the previous battle in Deshan, and after traveling all the way , So they all showed tired faces.

Lin Xiaotang looked at his watch, it was already one o'clock in the morning, "Hurry up and rest for half an hour, let's go to Huangshan Mansion immediately, as long as we can ensure the safety there, all of us will not suffer in vain!"

Lin Xiaotang knew very well that Chiang Kai-shek would be fine if the Huangshan Mansion had received a warning and had been fully prepared.But the biggest problem is that there is still a secret intelligence system of the Kwantung Army hidden in the dark, and it is still unclear what the purpose of Pei Zhongyan's collusion with the Japanese is.Now they only know that the bombing has an inseparable relationship with the Japanese and Pei Zhongyan, but they don't know what other tricks they have.Because of this, all the key is now on someone Jiang in the official residence. As long as his safety is ensured, he is not afraid of the Japanese and Pei Zhongyan playing tricks.

At this time, Parker and other crew members who sent Lin Xiaotang and others back safely also entered the air-raid shelter at the airport.Parker slapped the dust off his body while cursing the Japanese.

"Damn Japanese monkeys, what are you crazy about today? I haven't seen them bomb so desperately. The bombs are falling like raindrops. God will definitely send you to hell!"

Lin Xiaotang patted Parker on the shoulder, thanked them repeatedly for their assistance, and asked them to convey their gratitude to Chennault. Lin Xiaotang then asked Parker, "The air strike in Chongqing is so large this time, why didn't the US military send planes to intercept it?"

Parker smiled wryly, "The fighter planes of Hell's Angels and Adam and Eve's brigade have already set off, but the number is far from that of the Japanese. This time, the Japanese air strike used all the air force they set up at the front-line airports, far exceeding The scale of the Tokuyama air battle before, the Flying Tigers can only intercept as much as they can, but you can also see that due to the number of reasons, the current air supremacy is still in the hands of the Japanese!"

Lin Xiaotang nodded in frustration. He overestimated the strength of the U.S. Air Force due to the twists and turns of the Battle of Tokuyama. After all, now is the time when the Japanese have the upper hand. As for the Americans, they are still in the shadow of the defeat at Pearl Harbor. Their war machines have just started up, and they are waking up, panting heavily, and they can't be expected to do more things in the near future.

The city of Chongqing, shrouded in fireworks in the distance, seemed a little distorted. Lin Xiaotang's fists were slowly clenched, making a dull "click".

……

The roar of bombs kept ringing, and He Chong felt that his eardrums were about to be shattered. Since he came to Chongqing to work, the Japanese bombed him almost every day, but today is an exception. It has been two full hours, and the bombing has not stopped at all. On the contrary, there is a trend of further expansion.

The Gendarmerie Command where He Chong works belongs to the Garrison Command, but it is only a nominal affiliation. In fact, they belong to the army directly under the headquarters of the Communist Party. a massive barracks.Although there are a large number of people, they belong to different factions, including the Sichuan Army, the Central Army, the Guangxi Army and the Yunnan Army. There are also various factions in the Central Army.

The gendarmerie was established to rectify and maintain military discipline. The gendarmerie at this time is no longer the same as the gendarmerie in Nanjing.The gendarmerie at that time was one of the most elite in the country, but after the Battle of Nanjing, the gendarmerie suffered the heaviest losses. The current gendarmerie is not capable of fighting, and only maintains the minimum military capacity and discipline.

This is also the main reason why He Chong is eager to be transferred to the combat unit.Looking back on my military career, when Nanjing fell, He Chong, as a member of the teaching corps, escaped from Nanjing City after a narrow escape, and was then assigned to the Ninth War Zone, where he fought in the front line for more than two years. It made him fall in love with the passion between life and death.Now that he came to Chongqing, although it was the order of his senior in the Ministry of National Defense, He Chong was still deeply conflicted about it.For this reason, he asked for orders to be transferred to the combat troops several times, but the applications were rejected without exception, because no one would have the courage to transfer He Chong to the front line without the nod of the Minister of Defense.

The bombing of the Japanese army continued non-stop, and the air-raid shelters in Chongqing were also overcrowded.At the beginning, He Chong led a platoon of military police to be on duty on the street, but later, they were helpless. The bombs fell indiscriminately. The city defense force, including some air defense forces, could not hold on to it. The soldiers Disobeying orders, they got into the air-raid shelter and began to compete for positions with the people. Some people even took this opportunity and rushed into shops and storefronts, intending to fish in troubled waters at this time.

He Chong led his men to shoot and kill two rebels one after another, but in the face of the huge explosion, the gunshots had no effect at all.It didn't take long for He Chong to realize that something was wrong. All the troops were running around like headless chickens. After inquiring, he found out that the garrison headquarters had lost contact with all the troops. In the midst of inexplicable chaos.
