Chapter 169 Still failed
"Sir, you are kidding." Song Jiayu was stunned.
This concerns the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers under Commander Xue. How could Chen Yang choose to let the Japanese know about this secret passage?
Wait, looking at the smile on Chen Yang's face, Song Jiayu keenly realized that this matter was not that simple...
"Don't worry." Chen Yang's mouth curled up slightly, and said, "If it's not just the Japanese who know about this secret passage, we know it before them, and we set an ambush in advance."
"Sir, you mean to lure someone into a trap..." Song Jiayu reacted immediately.
But in a moment it felt a little too far-fetched.
This map must be kept close to Ma Yandong. He would definitely know if it was touched by anyone else.
Unless, the map can be stolen without anyone noticing.
"Look for the skirt flower." Chen Yang said four words after thinking for a long time.
Song Jiayu was surprised and asked, "Sir, do you want Kuandaihua to steal the map from Ma Yandong?"
"No need to steal, just take a picture of the map," Chen Yang said, "If Ma Yandong finds out that the map has been tampered with, this plan will fail."
"I'll try to delay him for a few days. Have Kondaihua prepare a miniature camera to take a picture of the map. And, before the Japanese get the map, send the picture to Commander Xue."
"As long as we take the initiative and the Japanese invaders don't have sufficient supplies, we can definitely keep them at Wanjialing this time."
"Hiss..." Song Jiayu couldn't help but take a breath.
The commander actually wanted to swallow up an entire Japanese division in one bite. This idea was too bold.
You know, since the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, there has been no precedent of completely annihilating a Japanese division, even in the Battle of Taierzhuang and the Victory of Pingxingguan.
Although the Battle of Pingxingguan was a great victory, it also came at a considerable cost to annihilate a Japanese brigade of more than 1,000 Japanese troops.
The Battle of Taierzhuang cost the lives of more than 30,000 officers and soldiers in exchange for the lives of more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers.
If Commander Xue could set up ambushes at Wanjialing in advance according to Chen Yang's plan, there might be a chance to completely wipe out the enemy.
After all, the First Corps under Commander Xue is a famously strong army, and it is well-intentioned.
The time is right and the place is right,
The advantage is that I...
If that were the case, wow, it would be the first comprehensive victory in the history of the War of Resistance.
Such a victory would be able to greatly enhance the enthusiasm of the people across the country for the war of resistance and break the myth of the invincibility of the Japanese invaders.
"Sir, I understand. I will immediately notify Konakame and ask her to complete this mission no matter what."
Chen Yang took out a bottle of calming powder and a blueprint of a flying thunder cannon from his pocket.
"Keep these two things for now. This bottle is the calming powder, which has a powerful sleeping effect. The skirt flower is professional. I don't know if she needs it, but give it to her anyway, just in case."
"Also, this is the blueprint of the Flying Thunder Cannon that Shancheng wants and the address of where Ma Yandong is staying in Shanghai. If Kuodaihua completes the task, you will hand in the map and blueprint together."
"If the mission fails, we will kill Ma Yandong and destroy the military map. In a word, we must not let the Japanese get the military map before us."
"Understood," Song Jiayu said seriously, "I promise to complete the task."
The next day, in order to avoid Ma Yanlin's visit, Chen Yang found an excuse to inspect and went to the operation center warehouse for a day.
On the third day, I found another excuse and spent a day in the station dispatch room.
On the fourth day, Chen Yang thought that the task was almost completed, so he stopped running around and waited for Ma Yanlin to come to the Plum Blossom Tower.
Who knew that instead of waiting for Ma Yanlin, someone from the Special High Section came.
"Assistant Chen, I'm sorry to bother you again." Knowing that Jiang Tengchengshu's nonsense had made Chen Yang unhappy last time, Koizumi Kenichi deliberately did not bring him this time and came alone.
"Mr. Koizumi, you're welcome. Is there something you want to talk to me about? Is it about the supplies that were hijacked by the Red Party?" Although Chen Yang's words were polite, Koizumi Kenichi could still hear some dissatisfaction in them.
Obviously, he was still a little upset about Jiang Tengchengshu's attitude last time.
"No, no, no," Koizumi Kenichi waved his hands and said, "It has nothing to do with that. It's a murder case."
A murder occurred at Hongyun Hotel yesterday, and two people died."
"Mr. Koizumi, you come to me even after two people died. Do you think my work is too easy?" Chen Yang waved his hand to interrupt Koizumi Kenichi's words, looking quite annoyed.
"Assistant Chen, please listen to my explanation," said Koizumi Kenichi with a flattering smile, "One of the two people who died was Ma Yanlin, the special commissioner of the Ministry of Finance."
"The other person's ID can prove that his name is Ma Yandong."
Chen Yang was shocked when he heard this. Did the mission fail?
Although he was puzzled in his heart, he still said calmly on the surface: "Do the deaths of these two people have anything to do with me?"
Koizumi Kenichi hurriedly said, "Of course it doesn't matter. The thing is, we found through investigation that Ma Yanlin has been coming to your place in recent days."
"Hirata-kun said he came to see you several times, but you weren't there. I just wanted to ask if he had anything to ask you?"
"Oh, that's right," Chen Yang cleared his throat and said, "This Ma Yanlin is a special commissioner from the Ministry of Finance. He came to me to raise some supplies for the new government in Nanjing."
"But, as the person in charge of the Longitudinal Line, how can I joke about the Empire's supplies? So, I rejected him righteously."
"A few days ago, he came to me again and said he had a confidential military map and seemed to know a secret passage to Wanjialing."
"But when I asked him to hand it over, he insisted on handing it directly to the people in the War Department."
"Besides, he needs me to introduce him to someone else. I don't even know what he has in his hand, so how can I introduce him to someone else?"
"I can't believe that something like this would happen in just a few days."
"It's my fault too. There have been too many things going on these days. The supplies were looted, and I also need to do some internal screening to prevent bad elements from infiltrating my department..."
Xiaoquan Xian nodded and complimented, "That's true. Special Assistant Chen is busy with many things every day. How can he have time to care about these small characters?"
"But are you sure he told you that he had military maps?"
"Yeah," Chen Yang nodded.
"It seems that this murder might be for this military map." Koizumi Kenichi quickly determined the nature of the murder.
Then he stood up and said goodbye to Chen Yang.
Watching Koizumi Kenichi leave, Chen Yang suddenly felt extremely annoyed.
I thought I could deal with Ma Yandong by using the name of "Quankaihua", but unexpectedly, I chose to kill him in the end to silence him.
Alas, I hope this person’s death will not have any negative impact on the Battle of Wanjialing.
On August 106, , the th Division, which had been waiting for no material support for a long time, finally made up its mind. All soldiers carried six days of dry food and forced their way through Wanjialing.
The Battle of Wanjialing thus kicked off...
